Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

However, Aozaki Mayuki could understand.

After all, at that time, Aizen's most important task was to complete the Hogyoku; everything else seemed insignificant.

For him, the remains of the spirits were probably just a trivial matter.

If one can evolve to the realm of gods, then it will be meaningless to replicate any number of weaklings.

“According to what those two girls said, his and the Ryudoji family’s headquarters should be in the Dangai,” Aizen said.

"I have already issued an order in your name that the Technology Development Bureau is rushing to produce equipment for testing modified souls."

"But I think we might not need to rush to eliminate them."

"What, are you planning to take action against the nobles and the Central 46?" Aozaki Mayuki asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Aizen couldn't help but show a surprised expression, clearly not expecting Aozaki Mazuki to be so perceptive of his intentions.

There is hatred between Oshima and the Central 46 Chambers, while the Ryudoji family is filled with hatred for Seireitei.

Furthermore, given the incredibly realistic technology of spirit corpses, if they were to use it to infiltrate the Central 46th Chamber, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Even if they haven't truly infiltrated yet, having that ability is enough.

This is a golden opportunity!

Having managed the Gotei 13 for so many years, he felt that the power of the First Division Vice-Captain and Captain-Commander was still too small.

There are many things we can't do when we're hesitant; it's time to strengthen our abilities!

Is it reasonable to possess power but not authority?

"The five captains openly attacked you, something many team members witnessed, and you were able to see through the decoy..."

Aizen didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already quite clear.

Whether it's fake or not, the final interpretation right is still in their hands.

But what about the old man?

Seemingly sensing Aozaki Mayuki's doubts, Aizen spoke at the opportune moment:

"Isn't it our responsibility to protect Seireitei?"

“That’s true. In that case, then…”

Before Aozaki Mayuki could finish speaking, a soft cough sounded behind him.

He turned around abruptly and saw the bald old man standing behind him, quietly watching him.

"Teacher, you came without saying a word, you scared me to death."

"Aozaki Mayuki said with some resentment."

"You're eavesdropping so late at night, you absolutely must not go to the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy."

"If the things those male students from the Spirit Arts Academy talk about in their dorms every night got out..."

"They were all sentenced to death by the Central Bureau of 46, and none of them were wronged, do you know that?"

"Heh." Yamamoto didn't reply, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

He knew this brat's strength all too well; there was no way he hadn't noticed his arrival.

Those words were clearly said on purpose for him to hear.

Chapter 456 How to Move Forward

Yamamoto had heard that several captains had "rebelled," so he came to the First Division to find out what was going on.

On the way here, he secretly speculated.

Could it be that their young disciple has acted recklessly, abusing the power of the captain-in-chief, and done something excessive, thus provoking the anger of the captains?

However, when he arrived there, he heard such earth-shattering news.

This disciple really gave him a big surprise!

Yamamoto's eye twitched involuntarily.

What does it mean to take action against the Central 46th Bureau?

That is the supreme authority of the Seireitei!

I've only been retired for a few years, and you all think you can turn the world upside down?!

His thoughts raced through his mind like flowing water, and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni quickly realized just how incredibly audacious these two young men were.

The unstoppable tide was closing in, and Yamamoto forcefully cast aside his vexing thoughts.

Don't be fooled by Aozaki Mayuki's respectful attitude towards him, or by Aizen Sousuke's reputation as a nice guy in Seireitei.

But he was willing to bet that if those two lads really intended to take action against the big shots in the Central 46, they would show absolutely no mercy.

"What exactly is going on?"

Yamamoto's deep voice rang out.

He closed the door, slowly walked into the room, sat in the seat of honor, and showed no sign of worry.

He seemed completely unconcerned that his young disciple would turn against him, a loyal supporter of the nobles.

Aozaki Mayuki's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

He poured a cup of hot tea, gently placed it in front of the old man, and explained calmly:

"It's probably because there's an enemy lurking in the shadows, capable of replicating the appearance of the Grim Reapers, creating imposters, and attempting to pose a threat to Seireitei."

"As the captain, I naturally cannot stand idly by."

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.

Yamamoto has been in charge of the Gotei 13 for over a thousand years. Although he is somewhat stubborn, he is by no means a fool.

After a few words, the experienced old man understood what the two young men were thinking, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh:

"What you are planning... is simply insane."

"Even the slightest mistake could lead to irreparable and serious consequences."

He slowly picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and continued:

"The nobility have ruled the Seireitei for over a million years."

"The best we can do is replace the nobility with the Central Forty-Six Chambers and replace the chaotic and disorderly Dark Ages with the rule of law."

"And what you have to do is completely overturn everything, break the rules that have lasted for thousands of years. Have you ever thought deeply about... how to move forward next?"

This is precisely what the former chief commander is so worried about.

He didn't care much about the lives or deaths of nobles.

The reason they were kept a thousand years ago was because they didn't know what to do without them.

His only concern was the future direction of the world.

As for what the future holds?

Aozaki Mayuki had no clue about this.

However, he didn't need to worry about it, because Aizen was still by his side.

Aozaki Mayuki responded softly:

"Teacher, please rest assured, our operation this time is only to kill a portion of the nobles, with the aim of making them submit to us."

"If this path really doesn't work, it's not too late to stop. We can't not even dare to try."

Aozaki Mayuki smiled gently, her eyes sparkling with confidence.

"Moreover, I have faith in my vice-captain's abilities; managing the mere Seireitei is certainly no problem for him."

Upon hearing this, Aizen straightened his posture slightly, and his smile became even more confident.

Yamamoto glanced at him, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

However, when he saw Aizen's confident and determined expression, his heart softened.

Seeing Aizen's confident demeanor, Yamamoto, though still somewhat anxious, slowly nodded.

After all, that junior disciple was stronger than him, and it was almost impossible to suppress him by force.

Moreover, I don't have many years left to live.

Even if we can control him this time, who will restrain him hundreds of years from now?

Moreover, from the perspective of its purpose, if this attempt succeeds, it will undoubtedly be a great thing for the Soul Society.

Those decadent nobles can be infuriating at times.

It's a good thing that young people are energetic. Who hasn't been young? Who hasn't experienced impulsiveness and adventure?

The era a thousand years ago was far more chaotic than it is now, yet they too forged ahead, constantly exploring new paths.

If Aozaki Mayuki ends up getting hurt on her journey, this old man isn't going to be a pushover.

As a senior colleague, he has a wealth of experience and can step in to save the day in critical moments.

Thinking of this, Yamamoto took a deep breath and drank the hot tea in front of him in one gulp.

He didn't ask for any more details; he decided to leave such matters to the younger generation.

I'm just an ordinary retired old man; it's time to let go.

They watched as old man Yamamoto walked away.

Led by the older sisters, Shizuku and Nozomi Kujo arrived at Aozaki Mayuki's side.

Their brows gradually relaxed, and they felt more at ease.

After all, this former chief commander was renowned.

They were indeed a little worried that this old man would kill them both in order to protect the world.

Akane Shizuku turned her head and asked softly, "What should we do now?"

"It's too dangerous for you to wander around outside. Of course you should come home with me."
