Bleach: From Rugum to Thousand-Year Captain

After searching around in vain for Kyoraku Shunsui, Chojiro was extremely worried.

.......

Chapter 64: The Cunning Mantis Behind or the Turtle in the Jar? (Two Chapters Combined) (Please recommend and add to your favorites)

Tengetsu Sussai remained silent. Seeing that Ukitake Jushiro's chest was still rising and falling slightly and he was not dead, he could pull him back from hell.

However, you can't use the Twin Heavens Return Shield in front of Chojiro Suzuki; he's not stupid.

No matter what, Chojiro is an outsider, so we can't reveal our power of refusal right now.

He first used the basic return technique to convert his own spiritual particles into healing spiritual particles, and then took out bandages from his system inventory to stop the bleeding from Ukitake Jushiro's hands.

Not everyone is like Kirinji Tenjiro; the hemostasis and return-to-the-way technique requires the use of a special return-to-the-way incantation.

Normally, members of the Fourth Division would use killing intent stones to create spirit needles and thread to help sew up such cut wounds.

Basic Returning Stream can only replenish spiritual pressure, but it cannot quickly heal injuries. Basic Returning Stream is not a completely universal technique.

The bleeding has only been temporarily stopped using healing particles combined with bandages; more precise treatment will be needed later.

Carefully turning Jushiro Ukitake over, Tenzuki Sussai saw a huge gash on Jushiro Ukitake's back, deep enough to expose the bone.

Furthermore, black shadows and an incredibly unfamiliar spiritual pressure were seen on the flesh and bones inside the opening.

Tengetsu Sussai's pupils contracted slightly; it was indeed Mimihachi, the right arm of the Spirit King. It seemed that the Spirit King's right arm had saved Ukitake Jushiro's life; otherwise, he would have died long ago given his current injuries.

I didn't touch or treat Jushiro Ukitake's back injuries; the Soul King's limbs have their own will and cannot be touched.

Even Aizen's Hogyoku, which has the Soul King's fingertip, should not be placed in the body unless absolutely necessary.

Tenzuki Sussai has reason to suspect that the will of the Hogyoku's refusal to accept Urahara Kisuke's acceptance of Aizen Sousuke, and the subsequent halt of Aizen Sousuke's evolution during his battle with Kurosaki Ichigo, might have been caused by the Soul King foreseeing the outcome and thus refusing to act.

Of course, that's just speculation.

Tengetsu no Sukezhai nodded; "Ukitake isn't dead yet, I'll help stabilize his injuries here. You should check where Kyoraku Shunsui is, I think he's probably dead!"

"Cough cough... Is that Brother Quebu?! Quick... quick, save Chunshui!!! Over there... they went that way!"

"Okay!!! Don't worry, Fukitake, I'll save Shunsui! Vice Captain Tengetsu, I'm counting on you here! Please make sure you save Fukitake!"

Chojiro bowed ninety degrees, then without looking back, he used Shunpo to head north of Rukongai.

Seeing this, Tengetsu Sussai shook his head. This Sussai Chojiro is just too worried.

Without even considering that someone would dare to make a move in Runlin'an, especially since it was Yamamoto's disciple, could it be a conspiracy or just a rare, blind incident?

"Close your eyes and get some sleep. Everything will be alright when you wake up, Ukitake..."

"Th...thank you..."

Ukitake Jushiro closed his eyes and fainted as soon as he relaxed. It's amazing that he could wake up after losing so much blood. He was even able to give Suzume no Chojiro the information about Kyoraku Shunsui's location in time. This is a typical plot development!

Seeing that no one was around, Tenzuki Sussai picked up Ukitake Jushiro and took him to a secluded spot. He replaced the Kurosaki Ichigo card with the Inoue Orihime card and used the Soten Reiken ability to quickly heal both of his palms.

Under the current captain-level spiritual pressure of Tengetsu Sukusai using the ability of the Twin Heavens Return Shield, the location where Ukitake Jushiro's palms disappeared was reappearing at an extremely fast speed.

After treating his palms and bandaging other minor wounds, Tengetsu Sussai ignored the huge wound on Ukitake Jushiro's back.

Using the power of refusal against the stillness of the Soul King's right arm, who knows what unpredictable consequences might occur.

He didn't use his healing abilities, and even fatal wounds and death were conceptually 'stopped'; he still didn't want to do anything unnecessary.

"We still need to inform the captain, after all, he is his disciple."

Tengetsu Sussai, carrying Ukitake Jushiro, used Shunpo (a type of instant movement technique) to reach the First Division barracks in 30 seconds after performing hundreds of Shunpo.

After all, with the Second Division Vice-Captain Ōmaeda Kichiyo's mastery of Shunpo, basic movement no longer hinders him and he no longer needs to use Hibiki to travel.

Even with Shihouin Sennatsu's explosive ascension Shunpo, he still hadn't figured out exactly how to use that non-deviation technique.

Arriving at the back of the First Division barracks, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni knelt on the ground with his back turned.

He had already sensed the approaching Tenzuki Sukusai of the First Division, but made no move to wait for Tenzuki Sukusai to speak.

Amatsuki Sukusai thought to himself, "As expected of the Captain-Commander, Yamamoto's mentality alone is enough to crush many Captain-level Shinigami."

I'm specifically calling out this newbie here QAQ.

Tengetsu Sussai put down Ukitake Jushiro and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the Captain-Commander, Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro were attacked in the northern part of Junrin-an in the First District. Ukitake Jushiro was seriously injured, but I have treated him and stabilized his condition; his life is not in danger. Sussou Chojiro has already gone north to pursue the enemy and search for Kyoraku Shunsui's whereabouts. That's all!"

"Oh...."

Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni did not immediately fly into a rage as Tengetsu Sukusai had predicted, but instead spoke in a deep voice.

"Vice Captain Amatsuki, how did you and Chojiro Suzume know that the two of you were attacked?"

"Reporting to the Captain-Commander, Chojiro and I are drinking not far away."

"That's the principle... You can go now, I understand. Also, take Jushiro Ukitake down to the Fourth Division for treatment."

Tianyue Quezhai looked puzzled. Wasn't the captain going to say anything more?

However, he did not continue to ask. Clearly, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni had his own considerations. What did it matter to him whether Kyoraku Shunsui was familiar with him or not?

Yamamoto's attitude surprised him somewhat; he didn't even show concern for his disciple's life or death. Our Captain-Commander's composure is truly terrifying.

"Yes!"

After Tengetsu Sussai left with Ukitake Jushiro, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni gave the order, and the messenger from the inner sanctum, who had been waiting in the side room, appeared before Yamamoto and knelt on one knee.

"Send out the covert operations force to investigate Run Lin'an and find out which noble family was behind it!"

"drink!"

The entire operational authority of the covert and mobile forces was controlled by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, while Shihouin Senji was merely a figurehead commander-in-chief of the Xing Army, though he was clearly happy to have the title.

.....

Meanwhile, in the north of Rukongai, Chojiro Suzuki was already tracking Kyoraku Shunsui and the lingering spiritual pressure gathered around him; it was a group of people moving Kyoraku Shunsui along with them.

Chojiro had already sensed something was wrong. If the intention was to kill Jushiro Ukitake, why take Shunsui Kyoraku with him? Was it a kidnapping? But that didn't make sense.

Could it be a trap? A trap targeting him, Chojiro Suzaku... or perhaps Lord Genryusai?

Although his mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts, the thought that Kyoraku Shunsui was still in their hands made Chojiro Suzuki unable to stop himself from doing nothing.

Regardless of whether it's a trap or not, I must save Kyoraku Shunsui; it's my duty as the eldest brother! What kind of eldest brother would I be if I couldn't protect my younger siblings?

Soon, Chojiro followed Kyoraku Shunsui's spiritual pressure to the North 33rd District of Rukongai. It would be understandable if Kyoraku's spiritual pressure lingered in a few districts, but if it did not disappear in 30 districts, it must be a trap.

With a grim face, Chojiro was ready to draw his sword at any moment. After passing through two more districts and arriving at the 35th district in the north of Rukongai, he felt himself surrounded by a group of spirits with overwhelming power.

"Finally, you've given yourselves away? Who are you all, and what are you plotting?!"

"You're not stupid after all. It seems your mind is clear---Chōjirō Suzume!"

There were more than twenty people in the group, all dressed in Shinigami robes and carrying Zanpakuto, their faces covered with black cloth so they did not reveal their identities.

Chojiro no longer spoke, drawing his Zanpakuto and unleashing it; "Pierce him, Genryumaru!"

He held his Zanpakuto upright in front of his chest, and it instantly transformed into a rapier.

The other masked Shinigami drew their Zanpakuto and slashed at Chojiro, while the leader of the masked Shinigami directly broke his incantation.

"Hado #32; Yellow Flame Flash!"

With lightning speed, Chojiro pierced through the rapidly attacking Kido with Yanlingmaru, broke through its defenses, and quickly closed in on the masked Shinigami who was leading the attack.

"Hold him back, don't kill him. The real show hasn't even started yet."

Tell me where the children you kidnapped are!

"Do you think we'd tell you that? Just be prepared and stand still to be slaughtered; that will lessen your pain. Otherwise, we'll torture you to death!"

"Hado #58; Kennya!"

"The fourth method of binding; this rope!"

"Ninth Binding Path; Crushing Wheel!"

"Binding Spell Number Twenty-Six: Curved Light!"

The masked Grim Reapers used the Curved Light Binding Technique to conceal themselves and surrounded Chojiro Suzume, constantly releasing low-level Kido techniques to harass him, making Chojiro Suzume's already extremely irritable mood even more volatile.

Chojiro used his Shunpo technique to reach the masked leader of the Shinigami, dodging countless Kido attacks and directly stabbing at him with the Yanling Pill.

Yan Lingwan possessed unparalleled speed and penetrating power, and the masked Grim Reaper leader was pierced straight through by Quebu Chojiro.

I never expected Chojiro Suzuki to be so strong. He was able to break through and counterattack even when surrounded by more than twenty of them.

The masked leader of the Grim Reapers did not die immediately after being stabbed, but was taken hostage by Chojiro Suzaku.

"Oh my, I didn't expect the student from the 丿字斋 to be so outstanding. I can give you a little praise. But please don't make any more rash moves, or that kid will be dead, you know?"

"What?!"

Chojiro saw a voice coming from behind him. The person was also a Shinigami dressed in a Shinigami uniform, but he did not cover his face to conceal his identity.

"Who are you? What is your purpose?!"

"Stop talking so much nonsense. What good will it do to know?"

"How about that? Hehe... Bankai!!! Huang Huang Yan Ling Li Gong!"

"Nani"

Upon seeing this, the true leader of the Shinigami quickly jumped away, knowing that every Captain-level Shinigami with Bankai is recorded in the history of Soul Society.

I never expected that Chojiro Suzuki would have mastered Bankai so quietly. This kind of person is really troublesome. My plans need to be changed.

The masked Grim Reaper leader, whom Chojiro had kidnapped, was immediately blown apart and torn to shreds by the lightning emitted by Huang Huang Yan Ling Li Gong after his Bankai.

The departure of Huang Huangyan from the palace caused a celestial phenomenon, gathering dark clouds in the sky and covering the earth.

Chojiro was enveloped in a yellow lightning-like aura, and the energy of the electric birdcage continued to be released unrestrained. At this moment, Captain-level spiritual pressure erupted from Chojiro's body.

Puff puff puff!!

The more than twenty masked Shinigami, enveloped by the captain-level spiritual pressure, were like lambs to the slaughter. Faced with such heavy spiritual pressure, they were powerless to even move, let alone fight back. Standing still, they were all killed instantly by Chojiro, who flashed like a yellow light, piercing their hearts one by one.

This wasn't the first time Chojiro had killed someone; he had already entrusted his resolve to follow Genryusai when he was preparing to follow him.

His face was completely calm as he raised his Zanpakuto and pointed it at the Shinigami.

The Grim Reaper remained completely calm and clapped his hands. "This Bankai is truly magnificent and beautiful. It seems the people around Yamamoto are of decent quality."
