The Seventh Chapter of the Bleach series, " Shinigami the Unforgiven," discusses the many questions surrounding Shiraishi and Little Strawberry's meeting.

This is the problem that people who are out of touch with the world need to face.

Shiraishi decided to unravel those questions slowly. She wiped her chin clean with water and looked at herself in the mirror. Her appearance hadn't changed at all.

Looking back on my days in Hueco Mundo.

His face was full of sighs; the only fun in that godforsaken place was leveling up.

He wiped out the Menos Grande of the Forest of Menos and the Adjuchas of the Sea of White Sand.

Raise your level from sixteen to the maximum level of eighteen, and then Bankai training for the other forms of Bankai.

After achieving this, there was still no sign of the Garganta. He was too idle, so he simply learned the Zankensoki Technique and sparred with the Old Man Yama whenever he had free time.

That long period of time has finally come to an end.

Shiraishi patted his face, turned around and opened the bathroom door. Outside was the living room. Rukia stood up from the sofa and said, " Captain Shiraishi, let me tell you about the changes in the world today."

"Wait, prepare some food for me first."

Shiraishi called a halt, wanting to eat while listening.

Rukia replied, " The Captain-Commander is having a meal in the hall."

"That stinky old man actually ate alone while I was away?!"

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi quickly located Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's Reiatsu, which was not far from here, only about a kilometer away.

He rushed forward with a Steel Tempest.

In the lobby of Zuellni City, at a round table, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto wiped his mouth with a napkin.

Having lived in Hueco Mundo for so many years, eating grilled Hollows every day without any spices, I was almost sick of it.

It's been so long since I've had normal food; it's so delicious it almost brings tears to my eyes.

Thank you for your hospitality.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto did not forget basic manners.

Sora Inoue quickly shook his head and said, "We should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, Zuellni would be a ruin, and everyone would be dead."

"That's all thanks to me; he was just watching from the sidelines."

Shiraishi entered the hall, said one sentence, then turned his gaze to the food on the table and took a deep breath.

This is the aroma of the dish.

Forget about arguing, he quickly sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and put a piece of beef smeared with sauce into his mouth.

He chewed, and his long-dormant tongue came back to life. He took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to cry. "Delicious! I haven't tasted this kind of flavor that makes every pore on my body expand in so long."

Upon seeing his attire, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto immediately asked, "Where's your Captain's Haori?"

"That stuff stinks, just throw it away."

"Idiot! Just wash it hard, the smell will go away, and it'll be ready to wear after drying."

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto roared, slamming his hand on the table, "What do you take the Captain's Haori for?"

"You're so nagging. You throw away your haori the moment you get into a fight, what right do you have to blame me?"

Shiraishi yelled back, then continued to devour the food on the table.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto argued, "I was protecting the Captain's Haori and trying to prevent it from being burned by Ryūjin Jakka's flames. It's different from you just throwing it away. Pick it up right now!"

"I'm too lazy to wash," Shiraishi replied.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto still wanted to teach him a lesson.

Rukia ran over and bowed, saying, " Captain-Commander Yamamoto."

"Um."

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto suppressed his anger and calmly said, " Rukia Kuchiki, give me a report on the current state of the world."

"Hi, here's the thing..."

Rukia slowly recounted what she knew, from beginning to end.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto listened with a heavy heart, "So that's how it is. The Seireitei has been destroyed, the Gotei 13 has been scattered, and the captains are missing."

Sōsuke Aizen.

Upon hearing the name that had destroyed his life's work, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto felt a surge of murderous intent, but he didn't reveal it, merely keeping a grim expression.

Just that alone was enough to fill the entire hall with terrifying pressure.

Shiraishi gulped down a mouthful of soup, thinking to himself, "Mayuri Kurotsuchi to the enemy, for better or for worse, at least I don't have to worry about Nemu being in any danger."

Retsu Unohana should be fine.

The person who should be worried is Soi Fon; her strength is somewhat questionable.

"Sigh." Shiraishi sighed.

Rukia's little head clicked, as if she had thought of something, and she quickly added, " Kūkaku, there is someone who knows her whereabouts."

"Who?"

Shiraishi perked up and shouted, "Call him over here right now!"

"Okay, I'll go get him right away."

Rukia turned and walked out of the hall.

A smile appeared on Shiraishi's face. If Kūkaku was alright, Soi Fon, being quick-witted, should be able to escape too.

In terms of Shunpo), Kūkaku is clearly inferior to Soi Fon; it's just unclear where she runs off to.

How do I find it?

This is a big problem.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto was also pondering why Ichibē Hyōsube hadn't come looking for him yet.

Given that person's abilities, they should have been able to arrive immediately.

Did something unexpected happen? Or is it that they can't leave...? Judging from the fact that Hueco Mundo hasn't collapsed, the temporarily created Soul King shouldn't have been destroyed yet.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto frowned; there was too little information to draw any conclusions.

Shiraishi continued eating his meat, his eyes fixed on the doorway, when he saw a boy with orange spiky hair walk in.

"Cough cough." He choked on the soup, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. Ichigo Kurosaki?!

Fate is truly wondrous.

"I'm sorry, I still have things to finish, so I can't go back to Kūkaku you."

Ichigo Kurosaki stated his thoughts: he had no intention of returning to the village until he found Ishida, or rather, until he reached Silbern and Yhwach.

Shiraishi pulled out a napkin, wiped his mouth, and asked, "What do you need to do?"

Ichigo Kurosaki voice, "Go to Silbern and find Yhwach."

"What?!"

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto looked surprised and said, "That guy's still alive?"

"You know him?"

Ichigo Kurosaki.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto did not answer. He pursed his lips, his expression grave, realizing that he had another troublesome problem to deal with.

The Fairy Tree Romance

Aizen is a great evil, Yhwach cannot be ignored either.

Shiraishi leaned back and said, "What do you want with Yhwach? Judging from your expression, you're not going to seek refuge with him."

Ichigo Kurosaki, "I will defeat him."

Shiraishi glanced at him and could tell what the other party's current strength was. He shook his head and said, "I'm not trying to discourage you, but judging from the Old Man Yama's surprised look just now, Yhwach is definitely not weak."

With your current strength, if you go to him, killing you would probably only require one finger.

"Look, my hand has already pierced your heart."

Ichigo Kurosaki's pupils dilated, and he realized that a finger had poked his chest, so he quickly backed away.

Shiraishi didn't chase after him, but lowered his hand and said, "You're too weak. Take me to see Kūkaku first. When I'm in a good mood, I'll give you special training so you can become stronger than Yhwach."

"..." Ichigo Kurosaki did not answer.

Shiraishi frowned and said, "What are you still hesitating about?"

Ichigo Kurosaki scratched his head helplessly and said, "Actually, I forgot the way back to the village. If I don't find Ishida, I can't get back at all."
