I'm in Bleach, starting with Unlimited Blade Works.

"Hey……"

Yoruichi Shihōin stood silently with his arms crossed.

No matter which family it is, if it opposes most families, it simply cannot survive in Seireitei.

Although the Shihōin family did not directly participate in the incidents targeting the Shiba family, their tacit consent often amounted to them becoming accomplices.

There's no denying that!

"Haha, indeed, a family that can't even defend its own territory is just a waste."

After comforting Ise Nanao, Erin stood up and went to Tsunayoshiro Tokinada's side, and said with a smile, "However, even though the Shiba family has declined, there are still quite a few people in both the branch family and the main family."

"And the head of the Tsunayoshi family, despite possessing such a vast family fortune, is now all alone..."

"May I ask, Lord Tsunayoshiro, what right does a family that cannot even protect its own members have to be ranked alongside us?"

Tsuna's fake smile vanished instantly, replaced by a dark and menacing look as he gazed at Erin.

"Yo yo, Head of the Tsuna family, you'd better soften your gaze a bit."

"Because I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and might accidentally kill you, turning the Five Great Noble Families into the Four Great Noble Families..."

Chapter 122 Kyoraku Shunsui

"Oh, what are you saying, Captain Erin? My gaze has always been gentle."

Tsuna narrowed his eyes, took a few steps back, and moved away from Erin.

Tsunayoshi Tokinada has only recently returned to Seireitei from the mortal world, and he has no desire to clash with Erin.

Of course, everything Erin did to him today has been recorded by Tsunayoshi Tokinada.

Anyway, the Grim Reaper has a long lifespan, and he'll eventually settle his own score.

As long as that being was created by the original Fullbringer, Dowager Aura, using his Fullbring technique to gather the corpses of Fullbringers, Shinigami, Quincy, and Hollows.

However, this newly created being is still in a damaged state, with its neck and above missing. It has not died immediately only because of the spiritual energy circulation between the lock and the soul saliva.

It was precisely for this reason that Tsunayoshi Tokinada chose to return to Seireitei and establish the Shinigami Institute, having its inhabitants continuously use the Reidou to maintain the state of this being.

At the same time, he also knew that his ambush of the previous head of the Kuchiki family had likely been exposed.

However, due to the power of the "strongest Zanpakuto - Enra Kyōden" passed down by the Tsuna-Yayo family, he did not use his own Zanpakuto when he ambushed Kuchiki Ginryū.

As long as the Kuchiki family has no evidence and he doesn't provoke them, he will still be safe in Seireitei.

"I hope so."

After saying that, Erin pulled Ise Nanao along, crossed the Tsunayoshiro Tokisada, and walked up to Kuchiki Byakuya.

"Byakuya, I'll take this girl back first. You can handle things here."

"Ah."

Although Byakuya Kuchiki learned from his grandfather that the person who ambushed him and caused his death was Tsunayoshiro Tokina, without any evidence, Byakuya Kuchiki, as a model of the Seireitei nobility, could not violate the rules of the Seireitei to kill Tsunayoshiro Tokina to avenge his grandfather.

The threat that Uncle Erin made to Tsunayoshi Tokina eased the hatred in Kuchiki Byakuya's heart. In fact, he had just been hoping that Tsunayoshi Tokina would make a move against Uncle Erin, so that Uncle Erin could kill Tsunayoshi Tokina with a clear conscience.

Unfortunately, this guy chickened out...

In fact, after Ise Nanao was taken away by Erin, these nobles had nothing left to fight for.

If the Eight Mirrors Sword is not obtained, and the Ise family women are known for being "husband-killers," who would dare to take them?

So, after thoroughly searching the Ise family's residence but failing to find the Eight Mirrors Sword, they left with dark faces.

However, these people did not find the Eight Mirror Sword, but they spread the news that Erin had obtained it.

After all, Erin had previously stated that if they couldn't find the artifact, it could be assumed that he had taken it.

In that case, it wouldn't be wrong for them to spread some information, right?

Who told that guy to be so rude that day?

Did he really think that becoming the son-in-law of the Kuchiki family made him a high-ranking nobleman?

While that is indeed the case, when everyone tacitly despises one person, his former status as a commoner becomes the basis for their ridicule of Erin.

Erin simply scoffed at these rumors.

A bunch of bastards who can only bark like dogs.

Let them be smug for now. Decades later, if Yoruichi Shihouin invites him during Aizen Sousuke's operation, he will eliminate them before leaving Seireitei.

If we don't invite him, then we'll just have to wait until Aizen betrays us and come for a visit.

Anyway, I saw Tsunayoshi Tokina today and copied his Zanpakuto, Enra Kagami. I might be able to pin the blame for killing these nobles on Tsunayoshi Tokina.

After all, it wasn't like Tsunayoshi Tokinada hadn't done things like killing nobles before.

Of course, the first people he killed were the other members of the Tsunayo family.

It was precisely because Tsunayoshi Tokinada had killed all the members of the Tsunayoshi family that he became the head of the Tsunayoshi family.

To be honest, Erin felt that Tsunayoshi Tokinada's actions were more or less influenced by the "Will of the Soul King".

More than a million years ago, the five noble ancestors betrayed the Spirit King and used the Spirit King's "omnipotent power" to create the Three Realms, dividing life and death, and making the world what it is today.

However, after Hyōjubu Ichibei made the "Spirit King" into a "wedge" to stabilize the three realms, the five noble ancestors carried out their will according to their original goals.

Leaving aside the other four noble families, the Tsunami family has always been wary of the Spirit King, fearing that one day the Spirit King might not want to maintain his current status, break free of his constraints, and take revenge on all those who betrayed him.

Therefore, for over a million years, the Tsunayo family has been dedicated to weakening the Soul King's power.

So they cut off the Spirit King's arms, removed his legs, gouged out his eyes, ripped open his internal organs, and banished his power from the world...

Erin didn't believe that the Soul King didn't hate the Tsunayoshiro family.

However, the Spirit King saw a more distant future and was willing to sacrifice himself for that future.

However, given that it has remained unchanged for over a million years, it's not entirely incomprehensible that someone seeking revenge on their own path to death is pursuing death.

Therefore, the Tsunayo family finally came to an end in this generation.

Tsunayoshiro Tokinada was not a direct descendant of the Tsunayoshiro family, but rather an "adopted son" adopted by the Tsunayoshiro family.

There are many adopted sons like him in every noble family. They are given the name of "clan" and dedicate their lives to the clan. Although they have the name of "clan", they are no different from those servants and slaves.

Perhaps this is the Spirit King's revenge.

The Tsunayo family, who persecuted the Soul King, has been brought to an end.

The current Tsunayoshiro Tokinada, although he inherited the surname "Tsunayoshiro", is more like the King of Souls "making amends" to him.

He became the sword used by the Spirit King to seek revenge, and also received a gift from the Spirit King.

Otherwise, Erin could hardly imagine that without the influence of the Soul King's will, Chan Juan Yanmi would have been able to survive until the Thousand-Year Blood War arc and obtain Gremy's brain to complete the final gestation.

……

The only daughter of the Ise family was brought into the Kuchiki family by Erin.

The news quickly spread within aristocratic circles.

Haruko Kuchiki and Erin have been married for decades, but because Erin's spiritual pressure is too strong, Haruko's body has been anchored to a certain moment by "Avalon" in order to prevent herself from being overwhelmed by Erin's powerful spiritual pressure and falling into exhaustion.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Haruko and Erin to have a child.

The arrival of Nanao has stirred Haruko's maternal instincts, making her extremely attentive to Nanao and temporarily soothing the pain in Nanao's heart.

Haruko has barely spoken to Erin for several days now, all to keep Ise Nanao company.

"Lord Erin, Captain Kyoraku of the Eighth Division has come to visit."

"Oh? Please come in quickly."

"No, I'll go greet them myself."

When Erin brought Ise Nanao to the Kuchiki family, he knew that Kyoraku Shunsui would come knocking on their door sooner or later.

Now that they've arrived, Erin naturally won't refuse to see them.

"Oh, right, go find Haruko and have her bring Nanao to meet the Kyoraku band leader."

"Yes."

After the servant withdrew, Erin hurried to the gate of the Kuchiki family. The first thing he saw was a weathered man wearing a straw hat and a red floral coat, Kyoraku Shunsui.

Back then, when Erin learned that the Second Division could leave the division, the first captain he wanted to copy was Kyoraku Shunsui.

That's why Erin frequents izakayas (Japanese pubs).

However, fate played a cruel trick on him. In the end, Erin did not meet Kyoraku Shunsui at the izakaya, but instead met Kuchiki Haruko.

It can be said that Kyoraku Shunsui is the most humane captain among the Shinigami.

Even Jushiro Ukitake, who seemed to care most about his subordinates, once watched his vice-captain die in battle.

Yoruichi Shihouin of the Second Division also abandoned Soi Fon and eloped with Kisuke Urahara.

Kisuke Urahara's single sentence, "For the sake of Seireitei," was enough to get Yoruichi and the others to head to the Soul King's Palace first.

"Captain of the Jing Band, I was wondering when you would come. I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly."

At the gate of the Kuchiki family's house, Erin did not exchange pleasantries with Kyoraku Shunsui.

Before he turned 100, Erin regarded Yoruichi and the others as his seniors.

But after turning one hundred, Erin felt as if he had been elevated to a higher generation, placing himself on par with Yoruichi, Kyoraku Shunsui, and others.

This can be seen from Yoruichi's change in attitude towards Erin.

Before she turned 100, even when Erin was the captain of the Sixth Division, Yoruichi would always address Erin as "Captain Erin" with a hint of teasing.

Even now, Yoruichi still refers to Byakuya as "Byakuya-kun" (little brother Byakuya), while calling Erin "the lazy guy."

You can tell Yoruichi's attitude towards Erin and Byakuya just by how she addresses them.

This means that Erin is already considered a completely equal being.

"Let's go, Captain Kyōraku, Xiao Qixu is probably waiting for us in the living room."

"what?"

Kyoraku Shunsui stroked his chin as he looked at Erin's overly familiar manner.
