People in Zongman, start plundering the Red Dragon Emperor entry

"I am here because I was persecuted by Aizen and others."

"The people in Central Room 46, you can see them by simply opening the door behind you."

"Your presence here has nothing to do with me. If nothing unexpected happens, you were manipulated by Aizen just like me."

Haschwalth patiently answered Rukia's questions one by one.

But after hearing his answer, Rukia became more confused.

"What do you mean by being persecuted by Aizen and others?"

"I am a Quincy who lives in seclusion in the human world, but I was discovered by Aizen not long ago."

"Out of curiosity about the Quincy, they captured me and brought me to Soul Society for human experiments."

Haschwalth lifted his upper body, revealing the blood-stained bandages on his abdomen.

Perhaps because the wound has not healed yet, the blood on the bandage is still spreading.

"...it doesn't look fake."

Rukia temporarily believed Haschwalth's words, and her hostility mostly subsided.

"Two final questions. How did you escape from Aizen? And why do you know me?"

"I concealed my own strength and abilities, causing Aizen and the others to misjudge me."

As Hasward spoke, he pulled out a throwing knife from his bosom and threw it casually.

With a hissing sound, the flying knife flew past Rukia and stabbed into the door of the court behind her.

"Everything is cut in two. I can cut everything in half regardless of defense."

"With this ability, I broke free from my shackles and escaped from the laboratory. After that, I ended up here inexplicably and have been going around in circles."

"As for why I know you, it's because Aizen and the others discussed you in the laboratory."

"They said there's something called a Broken Jade in your possession. The next stage of their goal is to capture you and take the Broken Jade from you."

"At that time, I was no different from a dead person in Aizen's eyes, so they didn't avoid me."

"I see, that makes sense."

Rukia suddenly realized.

Sheathing her Zanpakutō, she completely let down her guard.

"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"Although this is the first time we meet today, since we have a common enemy like Aizen, let's form an alliance."

"I think so too."

Haschwalth responded with a slight nod.

"By the way, what do you mean when you say everyone in Central 46 is behind the door?"

Rukia looked at the door of the court behind her.

Haschwalth: "That's what it means. You'll understand once you push the door open."

"Okay, I'll open the door then."

Rukia raised her hand and pressed it against the door.

Now that things have come to this, there is no time to worry about whether doing this will offend Central Office 46.

He exerted a little force with his palm, and with a click, the door of the central room 46 slowly opened to both sides.

At the same time, a strong smell of blood hit my face.

"This... is impossible! How could this happen?!"

Looking at the corpses lying in every corner of the courtroom with faces full of horror.

Rukia's pupils contracted, and an expression of disbelief and shock appeared on her face.

"Central Room 46, wiped out?!"

“It was already like this when I arrived.”

Haschwalth came up from behind and pointed at the wall not far away.

"Judging from the blood condition, these people should have been killed a day ago."

"As for who the murderer is... I think you should already have the answer in your mind."

"..."

Rukia fell silent and didn't respond.

In fact, the answer is already obvious.

The location of the Central Forty-sixth Room is the core area of Jingling Court.

He was able to bypass the patrols of the Grim Reapers and come here brazenly to kill all the people in the Central Forty-Six Rooms.

The only person who can do this is Aizen, who masters the art of mirror flowers and water moons.

"I didn't expect Aizen to actually attack the Central Forty-Six. What good will this do him?"

"I don't know, but... huh?"

Haschwalth was halfway through his reply when he suddenly turned his head and looked towards a corner not far away.

Not only him, Rukia also noticed something was wrong and felt a breath coming from the corner.

But before she could react, a calm voice sounded first.

"Shoot him! Sharpshooter!"

A faint fluctuation of spiritual pressure rose, and a cold light instantly pierced Haschwald's chest, nailing him to the wall and letting out a muffled groan.

"Hasward!"

Rukia was slow to react and turned to look at the source of the attack.

"Ichimaru Gin, why are you here!?"

"Why are you here? This should be my problem."

Gin Ichimaru retracted his magic spear and walked out of the shadows with a smile.

"I never thought the eldest daughter of the Kuchiki family would actually collaborate with the Quincy to massacre the Central Forty-Six."

"If your brother knew you did this, I think he would be sad."

"What nonsense are you talking about! It was you who killed the members of Central 46th Chamber!"

Rukia snorted coldly, activated her first release, and summoned an ice pillar to attack Gin Ichimaru.

But in the next second, Gin Ichimaru used instant step to appear at the other end of the courtroom.

The divine spear was activated again, and the short Zanpakuto blade quickly extended, appearing in front of Rukia in the blink of an eye.

Rukia dodged the attack by moving sideways and raised her right hand to aim at Gin Ichimaru.

"Thirty-one Red Fire Cannons of the Broken Path!"

"what?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ichimaru Gin's eyes.

Before launching the attack, he really didn't expect Rukia to be able to dodge the explosion of the divine spear.

Also launching the Broken Path to block the Red Fire Cannon, Ichimaru Gin narrowed his eyes and chuckled.

"It seems like you've gotten a lot stronger during your time away from Soul Society."

"Do you think I would come back like a fool without any preparation?"

Rukia snorted and attacked again.

The crisp sound of collision echoed in the courtroom, and the two men completed more than ten exchanges in just a few breaths.

After another fight, Gin Ichimaru took the initiative to step back and create some distance, and came out of the courtroom.

"Don't even think about running away!"

Rukia immediately chased after him.

But at this moment, the aura of Gin Ichimaru began to rise.

"Bankai—God-killing Spear!"

With a loud bang, a cold light suddenly appeared in front of Rukia.

"So fast!"

Rukia's pupils contracted and she instinctively dodged to the side.

But even so, she was still hit by the sudden attack, leaving a scar on her arm.

"What a shame! I was planning to take you down with this move."

"...It seems that I underestimated you."

Rukia's expression turned serious.

Because her strength increased greatly in a short period of time, she subconsciously believed that she could defeat Ichimaru Gin.

But in fact, Gin Ichimaru's strength is not weak.

As a genius who once shocked the Central Spiritual Arts Academy, the other party's strength is even greater than hers.

Looking at Ichimaru Gin who was emitting terrifying spiritual pressure after his Bankai.

Rukia took a deep breath, and her spiritual pressure also began to rise rapidly.

"Huh? This is really unexpected."

Ichimaru Gin's squinted eyes opened for the first time.

As a captain-level Shinigami, he certainly understood what the changes in Rukia meant.

"It seems that we can't hold back."

He raised the God-Killing Spear again and aimed it at Rukia, and Ichimaru Gin's aura reached its peak.

However, just as the two were about to give it a try, a figure emitting a terrifying aura appeared between them.

"You bastard! Stop it!"

"Captain?"

"Oh, why are you here?"

After seeing the identity of the person who came, Rukia and Ichimaru Gin tacitly stopped what they were doing and chose to cease fighting.

"I haven't seen the old man so angry in a long time."

"That person is... Rukia Kuchiki?"

"It seems the situation is a bit complicated."

At this moment, three more voices rang out.

Three figures wearing captain's haori appeared in an open space not far away almost at the same time.

"Captain Kyōraku, Captain Hitsugaya, and... Aizen?!"

Rukia's eyes swept over the three of them, and her expression instantly became serious.

Looking at Aizen standing on the right, she subconsciously gripped her Zanpakuto tightly and entered a state of alert.

"I told you to stop, don't you understand?"

Yamamoto snorted coldly, and the surging spiritual pressure instantly pressed down on Rukia.

Seeing this, Rukia finally realized what was going on, put away her Zanpakutō and looked at Yamamoto.

"Captain! I have something to report!"

"Ichimaru Gin and Aizen are colluding with Hueco Mundo to disrupt the order of the Seireitei!"

Intelligence containing a huge amount of information echoed above Central Room 46.

However, to Rukia's surprise, Yamamoto and others did not react to this report.
