"Gurgle."

Tachikawa swallowed nervously, then silently turned his head to look at Dōsan Hanyū in the distance.

She couldn't see through Dōsan Hanyū, just as her sister couldn't see through Aizen.

"Alright, Nemu, that's enough."

With Nemu Kurotsuchi's help, Mayuri Kurotsuchi removed the device that allowed him to monitor himself. Although his mind was perfectly clear, he still accepted the information notebook that Nemu handed him.

Memory can be distorted, which is why Mayuri Kurotsuchi never believed in so-called memories.

But when he took Nemu's notebook, there was one more thing that Nie didn't believe.

Looking at the neat and elegant handwriting, row after row of "detailed" records of what had just happened.

This guy, Nemu, even recorded her own "um" and "ah" interjections.

The only thing Nemu Kurotsuchi didn't write down was what she wanted her to remember about Dōsan Hanyū's abilities.

Did Nemu do it on purpose?

Such a foolish question is beyond Nirvana's ability to ask or verify.

"Interesting."

Nie's face contorted into an extremely exaggerated smile; he seemed to have discovered something even more amusing than science.

No, I should say this is also science.

"Nemu, the experiment is over. I didn't get what I wanted, but I discovered something more interesting."

Looking at Mayuri Kurotsuchi's back, Nemu was a little puzzled. This was so unlike Lord Mayuri; he would never ask her about such things.

"If this were a normal person, what do you think I would do?"

What is the usual Lord Mayuri?

Although it was strange, Nemu was indeed thinking hard. "If it were the usual Lord Mayuri, she would probably try to obtain the target's Reishi or plant a surveillance spirit insect on the target."

"Really? Hahaha, is this the real me?"

For some unknown reason, Mayuri Kurotsuchi burst into laughter again. "Bring up Subjects Six and Seven."

With a maniacal laugh, Mayuri Kurotsuchi lifted the lids of the two coffins.

These are two slumbering dead, awakened by Mayuri Kurotsuchi.

During the thirty days that Dōsan Hanyū was held captive, Mayuri Kurotsuchi did not do nothing.

The technique of resurrecting the dead is a parallel branch of the soul proliferation technique developed by his disciple, Tachikawa Magaki.

Back then, Nirvana had tried injecting surveillance cells into his beloved disciple sixty-eight times.

He had long since mastered all of Tachikawa's technology.

Of course, Tachikawa did almost the same thing to her master.

However, Nirvana previously looked down on this technology. He believed that with that time, he should have considered more ambitious experiments rather than resurrecting some already dead garbage.

But Dōsan Hanyū changed his mind.

There was no other way; the experimental target was too demanding. As a scientist, it was better for him to remain behind the scenes.

Inside the wooden coffin, the zombies slowly awoke. The first one was Jin'ya Tsunayashiro, the heir apparent of the Tsunayashiro Clan.

Perhaps because Jin'ya had just died, he was awakened more quickly.

Slowly opening his eyes, Jin'ya Tsunayashiro looked around. After a moment, his terrified pupils relaxed, and he swept his gaze from Nemu Kurotsuchi's face to Mayuri Kurotsuchi's face. After a long while, he regained his composure.

"So that's how it is. I'm already dead. So, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, how dare you defile the remains of the Tsunayashiro Clan."

Even in death, Jin'ya Tsunayashiro.

"Mr. Tsunayashiro, don't waste your energy and time. You should know that I can control you at will."

Jin'ya's expression grew increasingly grim, but he remained silent. He knew that Mayuri Kurotsuchi had not lied to him.

"Instead of giving me a look that suggests you want to eat me alive, you, now that you're resurrected, must have something much more you want to do." Nie's eyes darted around 360 degrees as she looked to one side.

Having been resurrected from the dead, in his zombie state, Jin'ya adapted to the Spiritual Pressure in his body, looked in the direction Kurotsuchi was pointing, and grinned.

"Go ahead, if you can kill him, you might regain your freedom."

It's a true resurrection!

Double happiness!

Although he was unconscious after death, it felt as if he had been killed by Dōsan Hanyū just a second ago.

But after waking up, the piecing together of his memories Jin'ya Tsunayashiro a great deal of inexplicable fear of death.

If he could truly be resurrected—no, even if it meant serving Mayuri Kurotsuchi's dog— Jin'ya would immediately kneel down and bark twice.

As for Yamamoto, who caused his death, his hatred for him was not even as great as that for Dōsan Hanyū.

Being killed by Yamamoto was far less infuriating than being humiliated by being defeated by Dōsan Hanyū.

But this anger and humiliation are insignificant in the face of the fear of death.

Therefore, Mayuri Kurotsuchi's promise made him overjoyed.

Silently sensing his own state, Jin'ya reflected on his previous life, and then a look of resentment appeared on his face.

"This body can only unleash 80% of my strength!"

Although Jin'ya believed that his defeat that day was mainly due to Yamamoto, he could not underestimate the strength of Dōsan Hanyū.

I'm trying to use about 80% of my strength, and that's without even considering any unexpected physical issues that might arise during the fight.

Furthermore, Dōsan Hanyū was not alone; Soi Fon, the Second Division Captain, was also by his side!

Although he didn't take Soi Fon seriously, they were two people, and he was in such a bad state. In addition, he knew for sure that he was gambling with his life and freedom this time.

Jin'ya Tsunayashiro was filled with fear.

Known as a paragon of nobility, Jin'ya Tsunayashiro of one of the five great noble Young Master, faces his enemy who killed him.

"Of course, you also have reinforcements."

Jin'ya emerged from the coffin somewhat bewildered, frantically twisting his body, trying to adapt to his new state as soon as possible.

Following Mayuri Kurotsuchi's gaze, Jin'ya saw the man with his eyes still closed in the coffin next to him and shuddered.

At first, Jin'ya didn't feel any relief because he had a powerful companion; his body, already dead, was now ice-cold.

"Mayuri Kurotsuchi, you madman! You're playing with fire!" Calming himself down, he continued, "Are you sure you can really control him? Forget it, stop what you're doing. I can handle Dōsan Hanyū and Soi Fon by myself."

Even if he were to be resurrected, given his shared plight with Jin'ya Tsunayashiro, would he really harm her?

It's unlikely. Jin'ya Tsunayashiro has met this man, and he's not a violent guy.

On the contrary, despite his great strength, he was very approachable and admired by his peers.

But no, Jin'ya Tsunayashiro was afraid.

Even if he is his companion, an unparalleled and solid support.

But he was just afraid.

How can a deer be companions to a tiger, even a gentle one?

"It's alright. He's been dead for too long; his strength can only recover to 70%, and he doesn't have your level of autonomy."

He stared at the zombie with a strange expression. He had coveted some of this man's blood, which led to him being deemed a heinous crime by the Central 46 and sent to the Maggot's Nest.

But is it a false accusation?

No, not at all wronged?

Those idiots in Central 46 have no idea how far their research on this man has come.

"Even at 70%, it's still not safe. If possible, it's best to ensure this man's strength is below 50%."

"I know, Jin'ya Tsunayashiro. He still needs some time to recover. Why don't you go and try?"

That's exactly what I meant.

If I can defeat Dōsan Hanyū myself, I won't need to revive him.

Jin'ya was always worried that after this guy woke up, he would unconsciously shout out "Bankai".
