From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 468 Ye Yi: These useless people only know how to make rice expensive when they are alive!

Seireitei, the aristocratic district.

The execution site, a huge building like the Roman Colosseum.

At this time in this building, the criminal troops of the second squad and the soldiers of the sixth squad have completely blocked off this place.

On the viewing platform, Shifengyuan Yoruichi looked at the scene in front of him that looked like hell, and couldn't help but raised his hand to cover his nose and said, "The smell of blood is so strong that it makes me feel sick."

Kuchiki Sojun, who was standing by, was holding the list of names at the meeting. After flipping through a few pages, he said softly, "According to the current situation, apart from that murderer, no one was spared at the execution site. Apart from the staff here, there were 1,743 nobles who were killed."

At this moment, the murderer he mentioned was kneeling on one knee at the execution ground, motionless, as if he had given up struggling.

The scene in the Colosseum was truly horrifying, with exploded corpses everywhere. Not a single complete body could be found, arms and legs were scattered all over the ground, and shattered heads and blood plasma almost covered the entire venue.

This kind of scene gave people the feeling that in an instant, all the people in the area exploded like bombs!
"That's quite a heavy loss. What are these guys doing when they have nothing to do?" Shifengyuan Yoruichi said with a look of disgust.

"How should I know?" Kuchiki Sojun sighed and said, "Our Kuchiki family never participates in such activities."

"It's better if they die." Shifengyuan Yoruichi said with disgust, "If we leave these rubbish alive in Soul Society, they will only make the rice you sell more expensive."

Kuchiki Sojun was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. It seems that my family's business will decline a little during this period of time."

The psychological quality of these two guys is still very strong. In this Shura hell-like scene, they can still discuss whether the spiritual rice will be expensive.

At this time, Feng Shaoling appeared beside Shifengyuan Yoruichi in a flash, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "Master Yoruichi, the number of victims has been investigated. 1,743 nobles were killed. There were 677 staff members present today. In this incident, a total of 2,420 people were killed."

"It's really a big event." Shifengyuan Yoruichi murmured.

The last time a disaster like this occurred in the Soul Society with more than two thousand casualties was when the Immortal King Arturo Pratido escaped from the Mugen Prison and wreaked havoc in Soul Society.

This shows how ridiculous these nobles are.

"Have you investigated the cause clearly?" Kuchiki Sojun asked again.

"Senior Xianghe is currently retrieving the spiritual image of the execution site. There should be results soon," Feng Shaoling responded.

Sure enough, less than two minutes after she finished saying this, Kuchiki Xianghe walked out from the Colosseum and came to the group.

"Xianghe, what's going on?" asked Kuchiki Sojun.

Kuchiki Hibiki sighed and said, "From the records of the spirit image, this was not a deliberate massacre, but the awakening of the Zanpakutō went out of control."

"Hmm?" Shifengyuan Yoruichi raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't that guy kill these bastards on purpose?"

"That's what the video feed shows. The man's name is Zaraki Futaba, and he's the eldest son of the lower-ranking noble Zaraki family. Previously, the Zaraki family was found guilty of smuggling banned medicinal herbs into Rukongai by the House of Nobles. Later, many people must have coveted their property and framed the rest of the family, which eventually led to all of the Zaraki family being exiled to this execution ground."

"After witnessing his sister being killed by a Hollow, the video showed that his Zanpakutō instantly awakened an extremely terrifying power, and then everyone present exploded and died at the same time." said Kuchiki Hibiki.

"That's a bit hard to tell." Shifengyuan Yoruichi said in a slightly complicated tone as he looked at Zaraki Fuuya who was still kneeling on the field, motionless.

The Zaraki family secretly smuggled medicinal herbs to sell in Rukongai. This matter could be a big or small one. According to Kuchiki Hibiki, the House of Nobles has already punished the head of the family and some members involved in the matter. As a result, some nobles had evil intentions towards the Zaraki family and wanted to seize their interests, so they began to fabricate charges and frame the rest of the Zaraki family, which eventually led to their family being exiled to this execution ground.

After investigation by Kuchiki Xianghe, it was found that this was an unjust case and the punishment was naturally unreasonable.

As a result, during this period, Zaraki Fuuya's Zanpakutō suddenly awakened. Because he lost control of his emotions, or perhaps the awakening of his Zanpakutō was too abrupt, his power was out of control. In short, everyone in the execution ground was "detonated".

It has become what it is today.

In this case, how can we convict Zaraki Shuangye?
He was wrongly accused and exiled here, and witnessed his family members being killed one by one. His emotions got out of control, his Zanpakuto went out of control, and brought disaster to everyone here. Isn't it the fault of those nobles themselves?
"A more fair conviction would be that his Zanpakuto was out of control," Kuchiki Sojun said after thinking for a moment.

"He even needs compensation. After all, he was wrongly accused and this is what caused this incident. According to the custom of the Central Forty-Six Chambers, he should be sentenced to at least seven or eight hundred years, right? But considering that the previous wrongful conviction was the main factor, most of the responsibility here should be borne by the House of Nobles and the nobles who framed them. Maybe a sentence of one or two hundred years will be enough." Shifengyuan Yoruichi said.

Hearing this, Aya Hosho whispered, "Master Yoruichi, the situation you described generally only applies to Rukongai. Those killed by that guy were all nobles."

The strict hierarchy in Soul Society can be seen from here.

If all the dead were civilians, then there wouldn't be much of a problem, but a large proportion of them were nobles, so how could it be the same?

Shihouin Yoruichi did not respond, but looked at Kuchiki Sojun.

Kuchiki Sojun obviously understood what she meant, and said helplessly: "Our Kuchiki family is a model of nobility. Aren't you making things difficult for me?" "Precisely because you are a model of nobility, you should stand up at this time. Don't you think this is a good opportunity to completely shut down this dirty execution ground?" Shihouin Yoruichi said quickly.

It is obvious that Shihouin Yoruichi wants to "protect" Zaraki Fuuya, and wants to drag the Kuchiki family into the water.

If we shield Zaraki Fuuya, there will definitely be a backlash from the nobles, but if the Shihouin family and the Kuchiki family can join forces to deal with this matter, it will be easy because they are the ones standing at the top of the nobility!
This is somewhat of a "betrayal of class", so Kuchiki Sojun responded to Shihouin Yoruichi in such a helpless manner.

However, looking at the hellish scene with corpses everywhere, a firm look gradually flashed in Xiumu Cangchun's eyes and he said, "Forget it, this damn execution ground should have been swept into the dustbin of history long ago. If you want to stand up for that guy, I can help you with some help."

"Just your words are enough. You are worthy of being Byakuya's father, a great man of the Kuchiki family." Shihouin Yoruichi laughed.

"As a fellow captain, I won't say anything. But you can at least call me uncle in private." Kuchiki Sojun smiled helplessly.

"Okay, Uncle Sojun." Shifengyuan Yoruichi was also shameless and called out on the spot.

"You little girl." Kuchiki Sojun muttered, then looked at Kuchiki Hibiki and said, "Report this matter in detail to the Central 46th Office, and then tell them my and Yoruichi's thoughts and opinions, and try to get a longer sentence for this guy."

"I understand." Kuchiki Xianghe replied softly.

After talking to Kuchiki Hibiki, Kuchiki Sojun looked at Shifengyuan Yoruichi and said, "Send them to the maggot nest of your second squad first?"

Shifengyuan Yoruichi immediately denied it, "No, no, no, although his Zanpakutō went out of control before, this also proves that his ability is extremely strong. We can't afford to lock him up in the Maggot Nest. What's more, the Maggot Nest is the private prison of the Criminal Army. He will be tried by the Central Forty-Sixth Chamber. It is not appropriate to lock him up in our Criminal Army. It is better to send him to the Palace of Confession first."

"The Palace of Confessions is for death row prisoners," Kuchiki Sojun couldn't help but say.

"Oh, yeah, I almost got this mixed up. Why not leave it to the Ninth Division?" Shifengyuan Ye was stunned for a moment and said, "With Lingzun in charge of the Ninth Division, no matter how strange this guy is, he will definitely not be able to make any waves."

"That's good. After the trial, he can serve his sentence directly in a big prison. He won't have to go through the extra process." Kuchiki Sojun said.

"Soufen, please notify the 9th Division to come and take him away." Shihouin Yoruichi ordered.

Then Feng Shaoling responded and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Then, Shihouin Yoruichi, Kuchiki Sojun and Kuchiki Hibiki gradually approached Zaraki Fuuya with some caution.

However, when the three of them had already stood in front of him and "blocked" him here in a triangle shape, that Zancheng Shuang did not move at all. He knelt there with his head down, and his face could not be seen clearly. He seemed to be dead.

"Zaraki Futaba." Shihouin Yoruichi spoke first.

After hearing this name, Zaraki Shuang seemed to finally come alive. He raised his head and said without any anger in his eyes: "I am guilty, kill me."

"You..." Kuchiki Sojun looked at the guy's empty eyes, feeling a little complicated, and then said: "Your crimes will be judged by the Central 46th Chamber, and then you will be imprisoned in the big prison first, waiting for everything to settle."

"Okay." Zaraki Shuang responded very calmly.

On the other side, Feng Shaoling was very fast. In a short while, she arrived at the 9th Squad’s barracks to look for Ling Zun.

As a result, he was told by the vice-captain of the 9th Division, Okiga Genshiro, that Ling Zun was drinking in the 8th Division’s barracks.

Upon hearing this, Aya Hosho did not delay and arrived at the courtyard gate of the Eighth Squad in a few quick steps.

"Master Lingzun!" Feng Shaoling stood at the gate of the yard and called out respectfully.

"Oh?" After noticing this, Ben smiled and said hello, "Isn't this our lovely little bee? What's up?"

Previously, Aya Hachiko went to the Shinō Spiritual Academy to study with Byakuya Kuchiki, and during this period, Bane was their teacher.

This girl has a serious and even a little "rigid" personality, so Ben always likes to tease her when he has nothing to do, and the two have a good relationship.

Sure enough, upon hearing Benn's name, Fengshao Ling's face immediately turned red, and she said with some embarrassment: "Master Lingzun, I am not a little bee, but a killer bee!"

"Yes, yes, Killer Bee." Bane asked with a smile: "So, what's the matter?"

Feng Shaoling finally reacted and said quickly: "A big incident happened in the noble district. Lord Yaichi and Lord Cangchun hope to imprison the murderer in the big prison and wait for the trial of the Central 46th Chamber."

After a brief pause, Aya Hosho explained the situation further, as well as Yoruichi and Sojun's intention to "shelter" the murderer.

"Zaraki Fuuya." Bane was a little surprised when he heard the name, and couldn't help but glance at Kenpachi Kuriyashiki who was watching the fun and making trouble.
