In the novel " Shinigami the Unforgiven," Chapter 29, "The Storm in Hueco Mundo," Soi Fon is a professional in this field, and her keen intuition makes her realize that the person behind the scenes truly exists.
The former nobles are definitely the most suspicious.
Only those people are skilled at scheming and plotting; starting with them is definitely the right approach.
To investigate the nobility, one needs someone who can understand the relationships between them and ensure their loyalty.
Marechiyo Ōmaeda would be a very good candidate.
Their public image is that of lazy bums, but recently the Ōmaeda Clan has started to return to their old business, operating a gemstone business.
Anyone who displays corrupt thoughts can easily be integrated into the group.
As for whether Marechiyo Ōmaeda would betray them, Soi Fon wasn't worried at all. The Ōmaeda Clan had always held the second-in-command position since the establishment of the Stealth Force.
While not as diligent as her father, Marechiyo Ōmaeda is trustworthy on matters of principle.
" Ōmaeda, I have an undercover mission for you."
As soon as Marechiyo Ōmaeda pushed open the door and entered, she suddenly felt that the potato chips in her mouth no longer tasted good. Her face full of surprise, she said, "Wait, Captain Soi Fon, why so suddenly?"
"Shut up! No complaining!"
Soi Fon let out a roar, slamming her hands on the desk. Her eyes, no longer watery, now revealed a sharpness, like small knives.
Her chair wasn't dry yet, and her skirt wasn't exactly crisp; she couldn't let the other person get close.
If he senses anything amiss or discovers a flaw, his image of impartiality will crumble in front of his subordinates.
Marechiyo Ōmaeda stopped in her tracks, shrugging her shoulders and saying, "I'm so obvious, I'm not suited to be an undercover agent."
"No, your talent is essential to infiltrate a corrupt organization."
Soi Fon crossed her arms and said in a gentle tone, "You have the kind of appearance that's easily corrupted."
"That's really going too far! Aside from being lazy and gluttonous, I've never done anything illegal or disorderly."
Marechiyo Ōmaeda himself, saying that his family ran a legitimate business and never did anything illegal.
Soi Fon ignored his protest and said in a deep voice, "In short, you need to seek benefits for your family's gem company both publicly and privately, make them see you as one of them, and then slowly get closer to the people behind the scenes."
Marechiyo Ōmaeda immediately asked, "Does my family need to return the benefits we received?"
Soi Fon retorted expressionlessly, "What do you think?"
"Haha, you're right."
Marechiyo Ōmaeda scratched her head, saying helplessly, "Uh, can't we send someone else?"
Soi Fon stared wide-eyed.
He chickened out and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll get on it right away."
While Soul Society focused on internal governance, Hueco Mundo was also in turmoil.
Invisible filaments began to spread outwards in the air.
Mole City Shuang, who had been listening with her eyes closed, slowly opened them as well.
A curious voice immediately rang out, "Did you discover something unusual?"
Sōya Azashiro replied, "Fine threads entered my body."
"What got into your body? Is it the kind of topic that excites me?"
The woman, whose eyes were covered by a black cloth, was breathing unusually heavily, as if recalling some scene, and a blush appeared on her cheeks.
Sōya Azashiro said calmly, "At least I don't think that's a topic worth getting excited about. This is Reishi... no, Negación Threads."

[ The Unforgiven from Shinigami ]
Observing quietly, he came to the conclusion that it was necessary to make contact with the other party. His figure gradually dissipated, turning into a wisp of Reishi floating in the air.
Northwest Las Noches.
This is the palace of the Fourth Espada.
The Arrancar, who were originally under the jurisdiction of the Fourth Espada, clustered around this palace and built a large area of buildings.
Without Aizen's instructions, these Arrancar submitted their house plans to the higher authorities according to their own ideas.
Then, Ulquiorra agreed to everything, resulting in the buildings in the Fourth Espada area of Las Noches being the most distinctive.
Those messy, unremarkable buildings are also unique, just far from being aesthetically pleasing.
Ulquiorra loved standing in front of the palace's floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the view.
Sometimes, I can spend the whole day looking at it.
Today, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window again.
There was an unusual flow of Reishi behind him, but it didn't make him turn around.
Ulquiorra.
A soft voice came from behind, "I need your help."
Upon hearing this, Ulquiorra turned around and saw a female Arrancar dressed in white. She had an ordinary appearance and her Reiatsu was very ordinary, like a blade of grass, a tree, or an unremarkable stone.
Rather than a powerful Espada.
" Loly, I won't help you, and I'm not interested in what you're doing."
Loly didn't leave, and said softly, "Don't you want Lord Aizen to come back?"
I don't know.
Ulquiorra answered truthfully that he wasn't sure whether bringing Aizen back to this world had any special significance, or was it just as meaningless as sightseeing.
If it's something meaningless, then there's no need to do it.
Loly understood his meaning and fell silent, but another voice spoke up, "Aside from Lord Aizen's orders, what else do you have?"
Ulquiorra recognized the voice and said, " Szayelaporro, you're not dead yet."
"I wouldn't say I'm alive. I've lost my body, and there's a high chance it will be taken by Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who killed me."
"Then you probably won't be able to get it back. The Shinigami are monitoring Hueco Mundo closely; they'll detect it before the Garganta even opens."
Ulquiorra answered calmly.
Loly began, "My plan with Michibane is to simultaneously activate multiple Garganta to infiltrate the Research and Development Institute."
Ulquiorra understood why she had sought him out—she was after those Arrancar —and directly refused, saying, "I won't help you."
"I can."
The Reishi condensed in the air into a human shape.
Loly frowned slightly, thought for a moment, recognized the person in front of her, and said, "So it's you. No wonder I didn't notice."
Have you seen me before?
Sōya Azashiro somewhat surprised.
"Yes, you're the Shinigami killed Kuruyashiki that day."
Loly nodded, " Lord Szayelaporro is the one who imitated your ability, granting me the power of Negación Threads."
Kuruyashiki... It Sōya Azashiro been a long time since I'd heard that name, but hearing it still brought to mind the image of that bold and charismatic man.
Even when facing death, he remained remarkably composed, displaying the elegance of a nobleman.

He is the complete opposite of the current Kenpachi Zaraki.
"Haha, are you regretting it now? About the sneak attack on Kuruyashiki."
"Shut up."
He snapped angrily.
Loly misunderstood and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so familiar with you and started talking to you like that."
No, I wasn't talking about you.
Sōya Azashiro suppressed his anger, realizing it was unnecessary. "I have a plan to get you into the Research and Development Institute."
