The Five Great Noble Clans Were All Traitors (Continued)

Therefore, many secrets passed down orally by clan chiefs are unknown to the other party.

Tokoyo Misao then continued:

"Now that I am the captain of the Tenth Division of the Gotei 13, it is my duty to protect the Soul King."

"But when tracing the Tokoyo Clan, some things were discovered."

He turned to look at Tsunayashiro Tokinada, his tone gradually becoming sharp:

"For example, the Soul King was betrayed by one of the Five Great Noble Clans and was sealed in the Soul King Palace."

"Is it right?"

"Wow, this is a big deal!"

Tokinada hurriedly waved his hands, looking somewhat flustered as he tried to stand up, but he lost his balance and took two steps back, bumping into Kyokkō.

He said urgently, "This has nothing to do with me. I can't get involved in things that happened ten thousand years ago."

Byakuya Kuchiki frowned deeply at his attitude of distancing himself from the Tsunayashiro Clan, as if he didn't consider the Tsunayoshiro family as his own.

Byakuya Kuchiki glared at him with icy eyes.

As the Tsunayashiro head of the family, he naturally has to bear the family's grudges and karma.

Tokoyo Misao spoke calmly again:

"Of course, I don't think any one of the Five Great Noble Clans families could accomplish something like this."

"It's also possible that they've joined forces with other entities."

"So I want to know, what exactly is the relationship between the Five Great Noble Clans and the Soul King?"

His gaze swept over the nobles present one by one.

He had already decided to take action against the monk and had no intention of forming an alliance with the nobles present.

I just wanted to take advantage of the move to gather them together and ask them about the doubts I had before.

Inheritance doesn't necessarily mean writing everything down in books or recording it somewhere else.

For example, what exactly the Soul King was like would probably never have been recorded in any other way, but could only be passed down orally.

That's what he's curious about.

Byakuya Kuchiki had already closed his eyes.

Although he sat upright with his back ramrod straight, the aura emanating from him made it clear to everyone that his heart was not at peace.

As for Yushiro Shihōin, he was looking down, hugging the black cat Yoruichi and rubbing his face against her, completely unconcerned about the matter.

Although Kaien Shiba had a serious expression, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes.

As for Tsunayashiro Tokinada, he was leaning against Kyokkō, looking completely panicked.

After an unknown amount of time, Byakuya Kuchiki finally opened his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Tokoyo Misao, what exactly do you want to know?"

"Misao, I really don't know anything about these ancient things," Kaien Shiba added.

It seems that the Shiba Clan's lineage has truly been broken, or rather, they never intended to pass down the ancient secrets.

"Hmm, hmm." Yushiro Shihōin nodded twice, then looked up with a relaxed smile and said:

"Our relationship with the Soul King?"

"All Five Great Noble Clans are traitors."

Although he smiled innocently and looked relaxed, his words revealed a bloody truth.

"Our Five Great Noble Clans ancestors launched a surprise attack on the Soul King, dismembering and sealing Soul King away, and dividing his power among themselves."

Yushiro Shihōin stared intently at Tokoyo Misao, seemingly unaware of the terrifying nature of his words, and continued:

"Our Shihoin Clan controls the weapons, Kuchiki Clan sets the rules for their maintenance."

"The Tsunayashiro Clan safeguards history, the Shiba Clan controls the path."

As for the Tokoyo Clan, I don't know.

Yushiro's lips parted into a wide grin, revealing a bright and sunny smile:

"We, the Five Great Noble Clans, are traitors by nature."

After saying that, he lowered his head again and pressed his face against the back of Yoruichi's head, rubbing it gently.

Of the five major families present, only the Kuchiki Clan and Shihoin Clan have the most complete lineage.

Yushiro didn't care about these things at all; it was Yoruichi who made him tell them all.

At this moment, Yoruichi was observing the expressions on everyone's faces.

She was also curious about what Tokoyo Misao would choose after learning the truth.

Silence fell once again.

Clap clap clap, a round of applause rang out, Tokoyo Misao smiled and spoke:

"I see, so that's how our relationship with the Soul King is."

"Now they keep talking about protecting the Soul King and the Three Worlds Realms, it's really..."

He lowered his head slightly and said softly, "Unpleasant."

"Enough, Tokoyo Misao, you called us here just for this?" Byakuya Kuchiki suddenly stood up.

He had no real connection to things from ancient times.

When I first heard these stories from my grandfather, I treated them as just legends.

Now all he has to do is fulfill his duties as captain and head of the Kuchiki Clan.

"If it's just about this, then you already know."

The Kuchiki Clan will continue to uphold the rules.

Kaien Shiba also stood up. "Misao, I know nothing about these ancient things. Right now, all I want is to protect my family, nothing more."

Aizen, disguised as Tsunayashiro Tokinada, kept waving his hands:

"If you're thinking of atoning for the sins of our Tokoyo Misao, then don't drag me into it."

"Even the title of head of the household was forcibly assigned to me."

"Atonement?" Tokoyo Misao tilted his head. "Don't worry, I just want to know these things, that's all."

"I didn't expect you to misunderstand."

He simply wanted to know whether the Five Great Noble Clans had truly betrayed the Soul King.

"Let's stop here for today. If we continue to talk in this closed-door way, the people outside will get anxious."

Tokoyo Misao opened his palm, Zanpakuto reappeared, sheathing itself back at his waist.

With a wave of their hand, Kyokkō disappeared, and they reappeared in the public eye.

Thank you all for coming! Please come visit anytime you have time!

"Misao..." Kaien Shiba, who had been incredibly happy and optimistic when she first entered, now looked extremely grim.

He pondered for a long time, but really didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh and leave.

As Byakuya Kuchiki passed by Misao, his throat moved slightly, and his words, like threads, fell into Tokoyo Misao's ears:

"Whatever you want to do, you absolutely must not involve Rukia."

He didn't linger, and left with Rukia Kuchiki.

Yushiro, holding the black cat, hopped and skipped away without saying a word, and left.

Tsunayashiro Tokinada, also known as Aizen, stood beside Tokoyo Misao with his hands tucked into his sleeves.

"Brother Misao, this world built on betrayal and lies is truly disgusting, isn't it?"

"I intend to liberate the Soul King," Tokoyo Misao stated directly.

"Liberation?" Aizen narrowed his eyes, carefully considering the word.

It's not about saving people.

"Brother Misao, sometimes forced kindness isn't a good thing," Aizen replied with a smile.

Who knows if the Soul King wanted to be freed?

Based on the information currently available, it is highly likely that the betrayal of the Five Great Noble Clans was within the Soul King's expectations.

"At least I feel good." Misao's tone carried a hint of youthful pride, causing Aizen to widen his eyes for a moment.

Combining this with Misao's explanation of power during the captains' meeting, Aizen smiled again.

"Then Brother Misao will have to work harder."

"We will meet again on the road ahead."

Aizen left with a smile.

Tokoyo Misao returned to the pavilion.

He picked up a pot of wine, poured two glasses, and pushed one glass towards the empty seat opposite him.

"How is it? Is it different from what you guessed before?"

A blurry figure appeared; it was Sōya Azashiro, who should be in the Muken.

He didn't pick up the wine glass, but calmly looked into Misao's eyes.

After a while, the body dissipated again and disappeared.

They didn't leave a single word.

Tokoyo Misao his cup to the moon and drank it down in one gulp.

The Soul Society is bound to become quite lively.

In the pavilion, Tokoyo Misao his cup and gazed at the moon for a long time.

He didn't finish the last drop of wine in the pot until the moon had reached its westernmost point.

A silver figure walked in.

"Brother Misao, the team's affairs are all settled."

Tōshirō stood obediently beside Misao and spoke softly:

"I want to learn Bankai."

Tokoyo Misao turned his head to the side and laughed.

"No problem."

He stood up and walked ahead.

"Keep up, I just happen to know a place that's perfect for training Bankai."

In the Noble Council, several high-ranking nobles are waiting anxiously.

They only breathed a sigh of relief when Tsunayashiro Tokinada appeared.

The elderly man from the Mediterranean quickly asked, "Lord Tokinada, with the Five Great Noble Clans gathered here, you must have a very detailed plan for the Soul Society, right?"

These upper-class nobles were all subordinate to the greater nobles.

The middle and lower-ranking nobles, on the other hand, were dependent on them.

Therefore, the gatherings of the great nobles filled them with trepidation, fearing that there might be any discussions that would be detrimental to them.

Tokinada said with a smile, "We were just chatting about everyday things, there's no need for you to be so nervous."

"Tokinada Tokida, we are all utterly loyal to the Tsunayashiro Clan!" another elderly man with white hair said in a low voice.

But as he spoke, he reached for his teacup and drank from it, showing absolutely no respect.

"The sudden appearance of noisy insects can ruin one's mood." Tokinada - Aizen's expression turned cold as he turned to look at the bright moon in the sky.

"Let's get ready to leave."
