Crossover: A Different Inuyasha.

Chapter 153 The Twenty-First Year of the Eastern Kingdom

After finishing his business in the world of Bleach, Inuyasha did not stay overnight and returned to Ruri Shrine.

No matter what happens outside, you still have to go home.

Under the cover of night, the shrine is now completely silent, devoid of the daytime activity of the shrine maidens. Lanterns sway gently under the eaves in the breeze.

Having just finished her moon-breathing meditation, Midori walked along the moonlit path to the shrine, where the ever-spring-like atmosphere was punctuated by cherry blossoms that bloomed eternally on both sides, their crimson petals scattering in the air.

Her long, ink-black hair was tied into a high ponytail, the ends of which swayed behind her slender and straight back. Occasionally, a cherry blossom or two would brush against the shrine maiden's beautiful and dignified face, adding a touch of feminine tenderness to her heroic temperament.

"Lord God."

Upon seeing the pillar stone, the only indestructible pillar in the Eastern Kingdom, wandering around the shrine, Midori slowly walked in.

To be honest, Inuyasha gave her a very subtle impression. He seemed like he didn't do anything serious on a daily basis, but at the same time, he seemed to have done a lot of important things.

Is this what they mean by "gentle breeze and nourishing rain, silently nurturing all things"?

As the two approached, Inuyasha could smell the priestess's delicate fragrance. She resembled a white plum blossom on a cliff in the dead of winter, possessing a solitary resilience and a cold, holy purity.

Unmoved by external influences, steadfast in its principles, it blooms alone in the harsh winter winds, sharing the beauty of oranges and citrus fruits.

Kagome possesses a unique charm and is someone you can rely on.

"Cuizi, cultivation requires a balance of tension and relaxation."

Inuyasha greeted us with a smile and said, "The training system in the Bleach world is of great benefit to us. After we've sorted it out for a while, we'll gradually pass it on to others. You'd better keep a close eye on it."

People are not worried about scarcity, but about inequality.

Even within the shrine, in addition to the free basic methods, there is a complete exchange system.

The more talented a person is, the higher the academic points they can obtain. With the shrine's resources, their growth rate becomes increasingly rapid and exaggerated.

In particular, Midori, who values ​​shrine maidens, spares no effort in cultivating her juniors. In contrast, the great shrine maidens of "Sun Wheel Celestial Phenomenon" have been arranged in batches in the Eastern Inland Region over the years.

Even in the outer regions of the Eastern Kingdoms, such as the Feathered Robe World, the Crimson Night World, and the Divine Tree World, there are many great priestesses stationed there.

A soul weapon created by fusing one's inherent spirit armor with the spiritual pressure of a Shinigami? It is indeed very strong.

Despite thinking of the underworld, Cui Zi's expression remained unchanged as she spoke, "Please rest assured, Lord God, the cultivation and education of a priestess places the mind as the most important aspect. I will not allow the birth of a black priestess."

Her words were clearly directed at Tsubaki.

Falling into evil, cursing the living soul.

Standing before the Ruri Shrine, she was a perfect example of the opposite of a shrine maiden, which truly made Midori dislike her.

However, Chun has made rapid progress over the years and is thriving in the Yin-Yang Secret Ritual Bureau.

I trust you to handle things.

Inuyasha nodded and was about to walk off to find Kikyo to lie in bed with when Midori stopped him.

"Lord God."

"Is there anything else?"

"I want to see how I compare to you."

The two had clashed several times, and each time Cui Zi had lost, but she was not discouraged.

If you don't dare to challenge because of the gap, that's the mindset of a weak person. A true strong person dares to face their own weaknesses and is courageous in forging ahead.

"At this point in time—"

Inuyasha approached slightly, no more than a fist's distance from Midori. A gust of wind blew by, causing the ends of their hair to flutter. Under the moonlit cherry blossom tree, an ambiguous atmosphere arose spontaneously.

The man's gaze lingered on the shrine maiden's face. He reached out and brushed the cherry blossoms from the top of her hair, his voice soft and languid, "If they were alone with you, they might misunderstand."

Before she could even protest his rude behavior, Cui Zi blushed upon hearing these words.

Of course she knew what Inuyasha meant.

A lone man and woman, under the flowers and the moon, with a lecherous dog by their side—anyone would be prone to misunderstandings.

"I have acted uprightly, sat honestly, and am completely innocent."

"But I am not upright in my conduct and in my sitting posture, and I am unwilling to be honest and upright."

Under Inuyasha's burning gaze, Midori couldn't resist and turned to leave, her wooden clogs making a hurried sound on the approach to the temple until she disappeared around the corner.

"Are we just going to let Midori go like this?"

A clear, melodious voice rang out from not far away, and Kikyo slowly revealed herself from the side corridor.

The woman wore a faint smile as she reached up to brush a strand of hair from her temple that had been blown by the wind onto her chest. "This isn't like you, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Kikyo, scooped her up with one hand.

The shrine maiden did not resist. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck, tilted her head back, and placed a kiss on his cheek.

"This is a reward, you bad boy~"

Happy times at home always pass by unnoticed, and the day has come to the New Year of the 21st year of Dongguo.

Aside from the eight Yama's yet to save the worlds, the Eastern Kingdom's territory expanded to include the Divine Tree World and the Death God World last year. Because no one has been assigned to oversee them yet, the names of these two worlds have not been changed like those of Hagoromo and Akaya.

Under the leadership of Tia Heribel, the ruler of the Eastern Kingdom, Yushi was completely conquered.

Some unexpected things happened along the way.

Those who were unwilling to accept this chose to join forces with the demons of hell to launch a sneak attack on Reincarnation, whose fighting force had been largely withdrawn.

Kisuke Urahara foresaw this, and with the dual methods of spatial teleportation and spatial sealing, all the invaders fell to Harribel's Queen Samehada.

The world was instantly cleansed.

Not long after, on a sunny spring afternoon, in the front hall of the Ruri Shrine, Inuyasha, holding a black cat in his arms, received Harribel from the Netherworld and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and Hyosube Ichibei from the Bleach world.

Today, Halibel's outfit was less sexy and hot; a high-necked trench coat that covered her entire body concealed her voluptuous figure, and her stern expression revealed the authority of a superior.

She reported in a deep voice, "Lord God, the world is ready to welcome the Gotei 13. Captain-Commander Yamamoto can bring at least 10,000 men to the Wheel of Reincarnation at any time."

Inuyasha reached out and touched the black cat's tail.

Yoruichi Shihouin, who had gotten used to being touched during this time, squinted her watery eyes and stared at Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto.

This was the first time she had ever seen the old man Yamamoto with such a respectful expression.

Even though it's facing Inuyasha, she's actually in Inuyasha's arms, so in a way, it's still facing herself.

Yoruichi felt a secret sense of satisfaction.

Ever since she heard that the evil man who had captured her had become the Spirit King, she completely gave up the idea of ​​leaving and decided to stay and observe carefully to see how such a scoundrel could become the supreme ruler.

Meow~

The black cat, tickled by the large hand behind it, let out a seductive meow, which made Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who was being watched by Inuyasha and was about to speak, raise his white eyebrows.

This cat—perhaps we could send more outstanding, single female Grim Reapers to strengthen their relationship with the God.

The thought of being experienced and steady lingered in the captain's mind for a moment, and then he calmly reported to his superior.

"Lord God, the Gotei 13 have taken over the Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the Human World, including the Zero Division, Visoreds, and Arrancars, unifying all their forces."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni took out a jade slip from his robes and handed it over with both hands. "This is a list categorized by Arrancar, Shinigami, and Quincy. Please take a look."

With a thought, Inuyasha sent the jade slip into his palm, instantly capturing the results of Captain-Commander Yamamoto's efforts over the past month.

The Shinigami are still mainly composed of the Gotei 13, but the team has grown considerably, with the addition of Visoreds and Isshin Kurosaki.

After being wiped out by Toga and Sesshomaru, Hueco Mundo had very few Arrancar remaining, and even fewer were willing to submit. The former Third Espada, Nelieel du Odschwank, who could play as a robot or a beast, was also found by the Grim Reaper.

The Quincy faction, similar to the Hueco Mundo faction, had its hybrids killed by Yhwach, while 99% of the purebloods died within the Myriad Realms. The leader of this faction was Ryugen Ishida.

Meow~

Yoruichi meowed, sticking out her tongue ingratiatingly, her bright, watery eyes brimming with emotion.

This prompted Inuyasha to place the jade slip between her eyebrows and glance at the three people in front of her.

"The power of Hueco Mundo will be handed over to Harribel; from now on, it will be the direct force of Rinnegan, and the personnel within it will be selected..."

The future of Hueco Mundo, Harribel, is in your hands.

"We will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Harribel, who is already on the path of creating a world without sacrifice, is filled with excitement, her heart brimming with longing for the future and overflowing gratitude for Inuyasha.

What started as a transaction driven by desire turned into a delightful one for Haribel.

"Don't get too excited yet."

Inuyasha's cold water startled Harribel, quickly calming her excited emotions.

The Arrancar in Hueco Mundo are all makeshift teams, and most of the Hollows below them only have instincts. They still follow the training path of cannibalism to evolve, making them extremely difficult to manage, no less difficult than promoting China's ideology in the United States.

"Before managing Hueco Mundo, you need to go to Zenkenkyo to learn real management principles, and at the same time assemble your administrative team. Based on the situation in Hueco Mundo, implement policies in a way that suits the local conditions."

"Among them, the most important thing is to increase the number of Arrancar so that Hollows no longer rely on instinct."

Seeing that Inuyasha wasn't criticizing her but offering suggestions, Harribel breathed a sigh of relief, her emerald eyes filled with utmost seriousness. "Please rest assured, Lord God, I will do my best."

Yoruichi, who was shocked and delighted by the list of many friends in the jade slip, blinked and stared at the brown-skinned, large-breasted Haribel, her eyes darting around, seemingly lost in thought.

Inuyasha, who didn't use his omniscience and omnipotence to make life full of unknown fun, nodded slightly and looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, "Captain-Commander Yamamoto, the jade slip says you want to expand the Gotei 13. Tell me your thoughts."

"Return to the Lord God."

After a moment of contemplation, Yamamoto revealed his thoughts: "With the return of Visoreds such as Rojuro Otorihashi, the former captain of the Third Division who was framed by Aizen Sousuke, the strength of the Gotei 13 continues to grow."

"At the same time, with the Soul Society being incorporated into our Netherworld, the area that needs to be guarded will increase several times over. Rather than waiting until we are short of manpower in the future, we should prepare now."

"While the duties of the Gotei 13 remain unchanged, the number of vice-captains will be increased within each team, using the original captains as the basis for assessment. The number of Shinigami under their command will be increased to 1,000 per team, with 20 middle-level management officers in each team."

The source of the Shinigami is the human soul. The Soul Society, which has been connected with the worlds of the East for more than twenty days, has seen a significant increase in its inhabitants. And the population is the basis for the development of the Shinigami.

"Grandpa Yamamoto has quite the appetite."

Yoruichi Shihouin, whose head was being stroked by a large hand, was thinking about the Gotei 13.

If things develop as Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni planned, any one of the Gotei 13 in the future will surpass the current complete Gotei 13.

This is an extremely powerful military force. Would Inuyasha agree to it?

Inuyasha readily agreed, "No problem, as long as we can manage the future underworld and hell well, we'll do it your way."

Given the size of the Gotei 13 as a fully-fledged unit, its scale already exceeds that of the current Reincarnation City, while the Hell City has not yet been built. Therefore, it is inevitable that the Gotei 13 and Harribel will jointly manage the Underworld in the early stages.

The future division of responsibilities will require time to work out.

After all, practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.

"Thank you, Lord God."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said happily, "When I return, I will increase the number of students at the Shinigami Academy and train more capable warriors for the Eastern Kingdom."

"There's no need to force growth; just let things take their natural course."

Inuyasha responded with a comment, then asked, "How is Aizen Sousuke now, who was reported by the Third Division Captain Ichimaru Gin and testified against by the Visoreds?"

At this moment, Hyosube Ichibei, who was sitting at the same table, said, "I have captured him, sealed his Zanpakuto, and imprisoned him along with Ichimaru Gin and others who committed the crime of killing their teammates."

Those who followed Aizen each had their own ideas, but the only thing they had in common was that their hands were stained with a lot of blood.

In Inuyasha, there are no laws that can be easily cleared up. If you make a mistake, you have to admit it; there's nothing more to say.

"Their crimes should be judged according to the laws of Soul Society before they are incorporated into the Eastern Kingdom."

With a single sentence, Inuyasha turned to the monk, "The Zero Division is there to protect the royal family, so I don't need it. Hyosube, the five of you, choose to join the Thirteenth Division or form a new organization independently, based on your own preferences. You can talk to Captain-Commander Yamamoto directly."

Hyosube Ichibei immediately agreed, "Yes, Your Majesty. My million-year duty of protection is over, and I, the monk, can finally relax a bit."

The Zero Division has been based in the Spirit King Palace for most of the year, with virtually no power outside the palace and no freedom to leave. Disbanding them would be a good thing.

After several exchanges, having covered the important points, Inuyasha finally mentioned going to Hell.

"Make a list of personnel. I'll bring out any Grim Reapers or Arrancars that need to be pulled out of Hell."
