"Yes, I hope you can tell the truth."
Kenma looked at the black-haired Kiritsugu, and saw him nodding, and a quiet voice slowly sounded.
"You are the master and have the right to know. There is no problem in telling you."
"Shisui, Fugaku, even the entire Uchiha Clan, those pirates and navy, after they are connected to you, they can't Awakening their own Zanpakuto.
"There is only one reason, and that is that I don't agree!"
"So, take away all the abilities that these connectors can Awakening Zanpakuto."
Kenma's eyes shrank slightly, but there was an unexpected look on his face.
"Sure enough--"
"It's really what you did."
The black-haired Kiritsugu shook his head. "I did it - that's not accurate."
"It should be said that it was what we did." The white-haired Kiritsugu on the side added, "The moment the connection was established, I cut off part of the souls of those connected together with the possibility of Awakening Zanpakuto."
The black-haired Kiritsugu followed closely and said, "I will collect these trivial souls and feed them back into your body."
"Kenma, do you feel that you are making rapid progress recently?"
"It's not just Spiritual Pressure, but an overall improvement in physical fitness, strength, speed, neurological response, and athletic ability."
Kiritsugu is right, Kenma does feel this way.
But it was so slight that it gave him the illusion that it was caused by the improvement of Spiritual Pressure.
Now it seems that it was his Zanpakuto that was responsible.
Kenma The eyelids drooped and then opened, an ugly look appeared on his face.
"Why?"
"Why are you doing this and not even telling me?"
"If I hadn't noticed, were you planning to hide it from me until you died?"
The white-haired Kiritsugu sighed and said, "If I tell you, your character will not allow this."
"This kind of damage that cuts off other people's souls is permanent. Even if this part of the soul is returned, that person will not be able to connect, let alone go back to the past."
The black-haired Kiritsugu directly asserted. "Kenma, your character is too gentle. The quality education in the past years has molded you to be too kind--"
"You are so kind-hearted that you cannot take the initiative to harm those you regard as your companions.
"But that's fine - we like you for being so kind."
"So - if you can't do it, let us do it! We will bear this sin for you."
Looking at the two unobtrusive Kiritsugu and Kenma in front of them, they gritted their teeth and a trace of struggle appeared on their faces.
"You are the embodiment of my power, no different from me."
"What you did is what I did. I will not deny this, nor will I cover my ears and pretend not to hear."
After hearing Kenma's words, the two Kiritsugu looked at each other and seemed to feel much relieved.
A trace of joy appeared on his calm face.
Immediately, Kenma gritted his teeth and asked, "In that case, why do you do this - why do you have to cut off their souls?"
"At least give me a valid reason."
The smile on the white-haired Kiritsugu's face faded and he looked at the master in front of him quietly.
"There's no particular reason, it's just our instinct.
"We just want to protect you, that's our instinct."
After the words fell, the black-haired Kiritsugu said, "Instinct - we just want you to live in peace and spend every day happily."
"You don't have to be immersed in the fear of the unknown all day long, you can live with peace of mind."
"Fear?" Kenma's face darkened, "Shisui Their life and death are controlled by me, so where does the fear come from?
"Nature is the fear of the unknown!"
The black-haired Kiritsugu sounded decisive.
"Those people you are connected to are very strong. Even those pirates and miscellaneous fish are stronger than the original you."
"If they are exposed to Zanpakuto--Awakening, their abilities will be unknown."
"If their Awakening's Zanpakuto are able to cut off [the connection], or even turn an army against you, then you will be in danger."
"This kind of unknown is the most terrifying and deadly existence."
The white-haired Kiritsugu followed up and said, "In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, we will take precautions before it happens and nip this possibility in the cradle in advance."
"Right now, Kenma your connectors, the various abilities they possess, whether Sharingan, Devil Fruit, or even Chakra and Haki, are all existences you know."
"You know their cards and abilities, plus the backhand we left when connecting, they will pose no threat to you."
After a moment of silence, the black-haired Kiritsugu said with a complicated face, "Knowing these actions we have taken without authorization, it is reasonable for you to be angry."
"Just unleash your anger on us, we are willing to do so."
"There's just one thing, I hope you can promise us."
The two Kiritsugu had gentle expressions, and looked at Kenma with a trace of prayer.
"Kenma, don't break us."
"We can also be your strength and protect you."
Kenma looked at the two of them absentmindedly and remained silent for a long time.
He was angry, both at Kiritsugu and Shisui for their persecution, and at the same time angry at them for hiding him.
As mentioned before, Zanpakuto is his strength, and this is all to protect himself.
What could he say?
Seeing Kenma's appearance, the two Kiritsugus sighed together.
"Kenma, actually we don't want how powerful you are, nor how many forces you have under your command, nor how much of the world you can control."
"I just hope that you can possess the second or third level Spiritual Might, and then find a way to make you immortal, and then go to an everyday world full of peace, and live a life without fear or ending."
After a pause, their voices continued.
"Similarly, we also know your ideals over the years, as well as the resentment and dissatisfaction in your heart towards Shinigami"
"When you were living in Soul Society, when the brothers Close Friend you met were massacred by Shinigami, although we were not yet formed, we can clearly see it in your memory."
"If this is what you want, we will provide you with the greatest help without threatening your own safety."
Kenma had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and suddenly a sense of enlightenment came over him.
"So, the worlds I traveled through were carefully chosen by you?"
"They are not a threat to me, but they have their own unique characteristics. They can help me to a certain extent and strengthen my strength."
Chakra in Ninja World, Devil Fruit in the sea, and those wonderful Cursed Technique in Curse World, these are all like this.
"Not bad!"
"It would be very dangerous if you were allowed to go to those destructive worlds.
The voices of two Kiritsugu came from one ear to the left and one to the right, and Kenma lowered his eyes.
Force yourself to calm down the complicated emotions in your heart.
