Capturing Isshin, Battling Kenpachi

Many nobles in the Noble Street have also renovated their houses.

Of course, many nobles believed that owning a house with old trees and a sense of history was a way to demonstrate their status and wealth.

Even if it requires hiring many people to manage and maintain it, this is the embodiment of aristocratic status.

As for Tokoyo Misao's house, he had completely repurposed it as a "rest and perk" for the team.

That house has been converted into an amusement park.

It contains an arcade, a board game room, a billiards room, and more.

Only members of the Tenth Division can enter directly through a special passage in the barracks.

For Tokoyo Misao, a place to live was simply a place where he could sleep.

The reason for wanting that house was simply to repay the old man Tokoyo for the power he had given, so he needed that land to showcase the reputation of the Tokoyo Clan, nothing more.

Such a large place would only make him feel desolate.

So it was simply transformed into an amusement park, where the members of the Tenth Division, who were on their days off each day, would go and have a great time.

He was walking when he suddenly saw a familiar figure ahead.

That chestnut-shaped head and petite body belonged to Rukia.

He stepped forward and greeted her, "Rukia, are you on patrol today?"

His gaze fell on her neck.

"Why are you suddenly wearing Kenseikan today?"

The Kenseikan is a white scarf, but the materials used to make it are extremely rare; the scarf alone is worth hundreds of millions of spirit coins.

This is one of the symbols of the Kuchiki Clan's status as nobles.

Furthermore, the color of the Kenseikan) indicates the wearer's status within the Kuchiki Clan.

White is reserved for the most core family members.

Rukia turned around and reached out to adjust the Kenseikan around her neck.

She didn't like wearing this thing in the first place.

After all, whenever she wore it on the street, she would always be greeted with respectful bows by others, which she disliked very much.

But that's the rule, there's no way around it, so I try not to wear one.

The reason I'm wearing it now is because...

Her eyes swept over Tokoyo Misao's face.

He is the head of the Tokoyo Clan, one of the Five Great Noble Clans; not just anyone can be worthy of him.

Even Soi Fon, the Second Division Captain, is not an option!

At the very least, it has to be a core member of the Kuchiki Clan like her to be considered a suitable match.

"Hmm, I've finally had some free time lately, and I've been learning how to use Bankai from Captain Kaien."

As she spoke, she looked at Tokoyo Misao with anticipation on her face.

"If you weren't so busy, I was planning to ask you to teach me."

"Your current Rei'i Grade is sufficient. Bankai is essentially an exploration of one's own soul; there are no extra techniques involved. Don't worry, you'll master it in no time."

Tokoyo Misao responded with a smile.

Even someone with stat-boosting abilities like Ichigo Kurosaki can't unleash his Bankai and reach his full power without exploring his own soul.

In the early stages, the power that kid used was most likely Zangetsu, the power of the Quincy, combined with the power of the Soul Reaper and Zangetsu, forcibly created something.

Tokoyo Misao discovered this during her last instruction of Ichigo Kurosaki.

Whether it's the Quincy within Ichigo or any other power, it's all actually Zangetsu, which is the soul of Ichigo Kurosaki himself.

Yhwach was unable to utter his full name at the time, probably because his name contained Zangetsu power of Schrift.

"Where are you going now?" Rukia interrupted Tokoyo Misao's wandering thoughts. "If you're not busy, why don't you patrol with me?"

"Sure, I'm busy this afternoon."

Tokoyo Misao as they walked towards Rukongai Rukia, patrolling the first thirty wards on the west side.

During a break in the 30th district, Rukia frowned:

"With the technology we've learned from the World of the Living, we should have developed Rukongai long ago, giving them a better living environment so they can wait for reincarnation."

She looked at the dilapidated wooden houses and the wandering spirits dressed in tattered clothes, then angrily turned her head and looked intently at Tokoyo Misao:

"Misao, could you work with Big Brother to put pressure on the Central 46 Chambers to develop Rukongai?"

"You..." Tokoyo Misao was about to say, "Are you serious?"

Upon seeing those eyes, he swallowed the rest of his words.

After a moment, he continued, "You must have talked to Byakuya Kuchiki, right? Didn't he tell you why?"

"I have said that, but I believe that the so-called rule, power, and the fear deeply rooted in the hearts of the nobility are not reasons for us to continue to ignore them."

Rukia and Byakuya Kuchiki have a good relationship; whatever she asks, he answers in great detail.

However, Byakuya Kuchiki still had many dark secrets that he didn't reveal.

Although the Soul Society is ruled by the Seireitei as its core, more than 80% of its area consists of Rukongai).

As for the structure of the soul, needless to say, wandering souls account for 90%, while the Soul Reaper and nobles together account for 10%.

With such a vast number of souls, whenever a genius appears, they are quickly recruited by the Seireitei to become Soul Reaper), or recruited by nobles to become their private soldiers.

But if the Rukongai is developed, they will have the most basic means of survival.

With such a large number of people, who can guarantee that there won't be those who want to gain power?

This is a risk that nobles would never take.

They will only continue to suppress and control the souls of the Rukongai.

As long as they are constantly in a state of alternating hunger and overeating.

Make deciding what to eat a daily concern for them, so they won't have the energy to resist.

Tokoyo Misao learned a lot about this kind of thing in his previous life from his studies in history.

Even in daily life, it's just the same old thing in a different guise, maintaining the same state all the time.

One of the reasons he chose to find a way to deal with the monks and liberate Rukongai was because of this.

He said softly, "Things won't be that simple, but if you want to do it, I'll support you."

"Okay." Rukia Kuchiki smiled. "I'll try my best to make this happen."

The two exchanged a smile and slowly walked towards Seireitei.

Tokoyo Misao arrived at the entrance to the Muken and met Unohana, who had already kept her appointment.

Without exchanging greetings, the two silently entered the depths of the Muken.

Tokoyo Misao once again isolated this space.

They still drained the spirit of Sōya Azashiro, preventing him from seeing what was happening here.

Beneath the thick, blood-red barrier, Tokoyo Misao and Unohana once again engaged in a fierce battle.

The two showed no mercy from the start, and in a matter of moments, both the haori and the Shihakushō were cut into tattered strips.

They were both panting heavily, their eyes fixed on each other, as they swung their knives at each other.

If the knife flies away, use your fist; if your fist shatters, use your teeth.

Tokoyo Misao and Retsu Unohana, like wild beasts, relentlessly tore at each other.

The entire Muken was filled with their screams, which echoed continuously.

The crimson area quickly began to shrink, from a radius of several hundred meters to less than a hundred meters.

Tokoyo Misao grabbed Unohana by the neck with one hand, and Reishi poured into her body like a tidal wave.

The crimson domain was replenished by Reishi and returned to its original size.

It seems that Tokoyo Misao doesn't want this battle to end too quickly.

Unohana did the same; a grin spread across her face, and she opened her mouth to bite down hard.

The sounds of battle resumed, and the shockwaves generated by the clash of swords and bodies continuously pounded against the Muken.

The stalactites that had formed over countless years were also destroyed by these waves of sound, turning into fine sand.

Suddenly, a muffled groan and the Roar rang out, Muken fell completely silent once more.

A while later, the sounds of battle resumed.

The fight lasted until the next morning before they stopped.

Result: Tokoyo Misao won.

As Tokoyo Misao walked out of the Central Great: The Jail, he rubbed his lower back.

The two remained silent, as if nothing had happened.

They each returned to their respective squads to continue their work.

Chapter 151 Capturing Isshin, Battle with Kenpachi

Tokoyo Misao did not forget what he had promised Kyōraku.

He went to the World of the Living Chamber of Commerce and called Kisuke Urahara.

"Is that so? I understand. I didn't expect Soul Society to be pushed to this point."

Kisuke Urahara's voice on the other end of the phone was very serious.

As a native of Seireitei, he certainly understood.

Even the Central 46 Chambers couldn't get Captain-Commander Yamamoto to change his mind.

"I will contact the Captain Kyōraku, but, Boss Misao, could you provide a little more information?"

"I've given you and the Soul Society all the information I can."

"Clear."

After hanging up the phone, Tokoyo Misao looked at the boy sitting in the rest area.

"Did someone come here alone to reclaim the Quincy's power?"

Young Uryū Ishida stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Grandpa told me he made a big mistake, and only I can make up for it."

"So you want to become Quincy?"

"That's only one of the reasons," Uryū Ishida replied.

His eyes darted to Ichigo Kurosaki and Orihime Inoue, who were playing in the snack area.

He wanted to be friends with them.

But if we're still just ordinary humans, that's not enough.

The three of them knew each other from the Chamber of Commerce and would occasionally go shopping together.

However, Ichigo and Orihime would always run off to deal with Hollows halfway through, leaving Uryū Ishida to watch from the sidelines.

He wanted to join in.

"Understood, come over here."

Tokoyo Misao led Uryū Ishida to the underground secret base.

He pulled a box directly from his sleeve, opened it, and revealed two Quincy Seeds inside.

This contains not only the seed of Uryū Ishida, but also the power seed of his mother Kanae Katagiri.

"The process might be a little painful."

Tokoyo Misao directly stuffed two seeds into Uryū Ishida's mouth, then with a wave of his hand, the ground suddenly sank ten meters.
