Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

"The fact that they deliberately left fake identities in the prison shows that they didn't want to escape. So what are they planning to do?"

While organizing the souls she had collected in the mortal world, Aozaki Mayuki tried to put herself into Aizen Sousuke's mindset and then consider how to act.

However, he quickly dismissed the idea.

Guessing Aizen's general thoughts is relatively easy, but figuring out the specific action plan of this great genius is really too difficult.

Changing her approach, Aozaki Mayuki pondered, "What about Kuchiki Hibiki? If he doesn't want to escape, what would he do if he left prison?"

"Wait, is this an alibi? Then his target is... the Tsunayo family!"

"The Tsunayo family framed him, and now they're going to great lengths to cover up the truth. Are they going to take revenge on the Tsunayo family?"

"There's no use thinking about it anymore. Maybe I should go and see. If the Tsunayo family really falls into chaos, I might even be able to get some benefits."

Aozaki Mayuki reached for the black cloak beside her and put it on.

He had held a grudge against the Tsunayo family for cheating him so many times, and he was just waiting to get his revenge.

If he weren't lacking in strength, he would have stormed the Tsunayo family long ago. Now he can take advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters!

"Binding Spell #26: Curved Light!"

With everything prepared, Aozaki Mayuki disappeared into the darkness and headed towards the Tsunayoshiro family home.

The Tsunayo family's territory is located in the central area of ​​Seireitei. When Aozaki Mayuki arrived, he found that the ten guards at the entrance had fallen into pools of blood and were gradually dissipating into spirit particles.

"This is exactly where they're headed!"

Aozaki Mayuki sneered inwardly, showing no pity for the guards, and directly infiltrated the Tsunayo family's territory.

The Tsunayo residence was eerily quiet, with only the lingering smell of blood in the air telling Aozaki Mayuki that a fierce battle had recently taken place there.

Following the long passageway, Aozaki Mayuki ventured deeper and deeper into the heart of the Tsunayo family's territory.

Along the way, he found more than a dozen corpses of guards from the Tsunayo family. All of them had their throats slit with a single blow, and their faces were expressionless.

There is no doubt that these guards were killed before they could react!

After turning a few corners, Aozaki Mayuki quickly shrank back behind the wall.

He noticed that there were twenty sword-wielding Grim Reapers on guard a few dozen meters ahead, including two vice-captain level Grim Reapers.

"At this hour, there are still people guarding this place. There must be something good here, right?"

As Aozaki Mayuki pondered this, he placed his hand on the Zanpakuto at his waist.

His purpose in infiltrating the Tsunayo family was to take advantage of the situation and plunder their collection.

After all, they are one of the five great noble families. They don't expect to find fragments of the Spirit King. As long as they can find something useful, that's a win!

Even if we don't get anything good, killing two members of the Tsunayoshi family isn't a loss.

Having made up his mind, Aozaki Mayuki immediately pounced out. With his current strength, even without unleashing his Zanpakuto, killing these clan guards wouldn't be a big problem.

Moreover, being cautious, he would definitely unleash his Zanpakuto whenever he did something like this—he could use any other abilities, but he absolutely had to use the Kyoka Suigetsu to deceive the Great Spirit Book Corridor.

"Who goes there!?"

"Enemy attack!"

As soon as Aozaki Mayuki cut down a vice-captain-level guard and revealed his figure, the guards of the Tsunayashiro family immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Chapter 153 Simple People

"What do you want me to do now that you want me to replace you?"

Upon receiving the message from Aozaki Mayuki, Ichimaru Gin looked somewhat bewildered.

The Eleventh Division barracks were incredibly noisy under the cover of night, with Yamazaki Yantora's shouts, Kunan Shiro's chuckles, and the hurried movements of the team members.

Everything seemed to foreshadow something bad about to happen.

Before he even got close to the captain's barracks, Gin Ichimaru was surprised to find that the entrance was already crowded with fully equipped and ready-to-go soldiers.

At this moment, the faces of these team members were filled with excitement and fervor.

What kind of expression is that? Is Mazuki planning a rebellion and asking me to lead them to take over the First Division barracks?

Looking at these soldiers, Gin Ichimaru walked uneasily to Yamazaki Gentora.

The Eleventh Division members bowed to the newcomers as they recognized them.

"team leader!"

Upon entering the barracks, he found the courtyard filled with soldiers.

From the deputy captain down to the ordinary soldiers, including all the officers, everyone was gathered here.

"What happened?"

Realizing that this was similar to a war mobilization, Gin Ichimaru's unease grew stronger, and he vaguely guessed that something must have happened.

"The Ritsu Team has received an order from the Central 46th Bureau: the Tsunayo family has been attacked by unknown individuals, and we are to go and provide assistance."

Gin Ichimaru was immediately speechless and stopped in his tracks.

Aozaki Mayuki, what have you done? Do you think you can mess with the Tsunayashiro family now? Can't you wait another ten years or so, then I'll fight them with you?

That's so inconsiderate!

Gin Ichimaru roared, "Vice-Captain Yamazaki, gather everyone! I'll take some men to the Tsunayo residence first, you and your men will follow shortly!"

Yamazaki Gentora was taken aback. "Yes."

Doesn't the captain usually hate the Tsunayoshiro family the most? Why is he so anxious about the attack on the Tsunayoshiro family?

I understand. The captain truly deserves to be recognized by the Captain-Commander as an outstanding Shinigami. He is indeed fair and impartial, a model among Shinigami!

…………

Gangya Daike.

Aozaki Mayuki stood amidst the beautiful, swirling snow, admiring the perfect painting she had created with her own blood.

Before me lay more than twenty corpses, lying haphazardly on the snow.

“Alright, then I should take a look at the treasure.” Aozaki Mayuki opened the door to the secret room.

Countless mechanical devices come into view, and a two-meter-tall cylindrical glass jar stands in the center of the room, just like the kind of jar used to store human specimens in science fiction movies.

Aozaki Mayuki frowned. The Tsunayo family was clearly conducting inhumane human experiments.

Immersed in the pale yellow liquid is a woman with a beautiful face, slightly bent limbs and spine, and long, glossy black hair that floats slowly in the solution. With her eyes closed, she looks as peaceful as a baby.

If it weren't for the documents on the table next to her, Aozaki Mayuki would have thought she was still alive.

"This is the female corpse that Tosen Kaname has been longing for. It's so well preserved that it looks like she's still alive... They started experimenting on her while she was still alive. The Tsunayo family are all beasts."

Aozaki Mayuki clicked her tongue as she flipped through the documents, but it was hard to say she felt much pity, given the countless sins she herself had committed.

"I just didn't expect that Kagaku, who died many years ago, would be here. It's amazing that her body has been preserved until now. It seems that the Tsunayo family is not without good things. I'll accept this technology."

Aozaki Mayuki skillfully operated the control panel.

The pale yellow liquid inside the glass tube was drained in an instant, and the moment the glass cover was opened, Ge Kuang's body collapsed.

He took a step forward and pulled Ge Kuang into his arms. Gazing at the lifeless Ge Kuang, he hesitated for a moment before chuckling softly, "Dongxian, don't blame me..."

Aozaki Mayuki stretched out a hand, which emitted a green light, and then suddenly plunged it into Kagami's chest.

Tsunayoshiro Tokinada, a member of the Tsunayoshiro family branch, married Kagami because she contained a fragment of the Spirit King within her.

After she married into the Tsunayo family, they treated her as an experimental subject.

This woman and Tsunayoshiro Tokinada are quite similar in some ways; they are both simple people, except that the former is simply good, while the latter is simply evil.

…………

On the other side of the Tsunayo family.

The flashes of swords streaked through the air in silvery-white arcs, slashing towards the members of the Tsunayoshiro family at astonishing speed.

Whoosh! !

Snowflakes were easily swept up by the sword wind and landed on the group, where they melted in the warm blood.

Large clumps of crimson blood mist exploded on his body, splattering large amounts of blood everywhere.

"Damn the Tsunayo family!! Don't run!! Die, all of you!!"

On the snow-covered ground, where blood blossoms bloomed, Kuchiki Kyoga, wielding his Zanpakuto, laughed loudly, roaring with a ferocious expression, seemingly tireless, as he slashed wildly with his long sword.

"Who the hell are you?! This is the Tsunayoshi family home! You bastard, do you even know what you're doing?!"

From the courtyard in the distance, the angry voices of the Tsunayo family members could be heard.

The trembling guards behind him swallowed hard, sweating profusely and at a loss for what to do.

They frantically drew their Zanpakuto from their waists and, amidst the shouts and curses of the guard captain, surrounded the enemy one by one.

"Quickly!! Protect Lord Inukai! Kill the intruders! If even a single hair on Lord Inukai's head is lost, I will hold you all accountable!!"

The captain of the guard had a Zanpakuto at his waist and an armband with the crest of the Tsuna-Yashiro family on it. For them, outsiders, this was the highest honor.

He gave the order with a look of anxiety on his face, while protecting the obese middle-aged man named Tsunayoshiro Inukai behind him with one hand.

"But... the enemy is too strong. None of us are a match for him. Why don't we retreat while waiting for reinforcements from the Gotei 13?"

A young guard instinctively said that they could only be considered a private armed force, not family assassins who didn't care about life and death.

As soon as he said that, the other guards looked at him like he was an idiot.

He instantly realized that the enemy had gone mad and had chased them from the outer areas to here. Where could they possibly run to?

"There's only one opponent. Have the rest of the guards come over and buy time for the Gotei 13!"

The captain of the guard shook his head and gave the order to his adjutant beside him.

He gazed at the invaders slaughtering in the distance amidst the bloodshed, judging that there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and his brain began to work rapidly.

He could suppress the guards without even needing to unleash his Zanpakuto; the enemy had at least captain-level spiritual pressure, and such a powerful opponent couldn't be defeated by sheer numbers.

The captain of the guard looked toward the central area of ​​the Tsunayo family's residence.

The Tsunayo family certainly wouldn't use people like them, who weren't even at the vice-captain level, as a guarantee of military strength; the real powerhouses and foundations were all there.
