Chapter 37: The Spirit King (I)

"So? Why did the former director of the Technology Development Bureau come to me?"

Shiba Kuzuru propped his head with one hand, looking at the man in front of him who didn't look like a proper person, and a hint of hostility flashed across his face.

It's just that the hostility is not aimed at Kisuke Urahara, but at the whole of death. For the Shiba family, the sight of so many Grim Reapers' together is already a disgusting thing to some extent.

They uphold the subtle attitude of the Five Nobles towards death and the sinful world of today, and are imbued with a spirit of self-sacrificing atonement. People in the Shiba family tend to choose the side of self-sacrifice, although there may be better options. This can be seen from their secret technique at the bottom of the box, the final crescent moon sky, only they have the ability to completely give up the power of death in exchange for a moment of brilliance.

By the time Shiba Kuzuru's generation arrived, they had begun to grow tired of the Grim Reaper as a whole.

The eldest brother Zhibo Haiyan was murdered in full view of everyone, his uncle Zhibo disappeared on his way to the present world, and the other members of the family were either killed or injured. In the end, the Zhiba family faded out of the entire Lingling Court, which was also a matter of course. As a direct line, Shiba Kutsuru is also very disgusted with the existence of these Grim Reapers.

Now in the face of the phenomenon of death almost everywhere in the dojo, Shiba Kuzuru can no longer hold back some of the evil fires that are constantly surging in his heart. Looking at Kisuke Urahara who was shaking a paper fan in front of him, as well as a black cat that followed him, and Matsumoto Ranju who seemed to be a little inexplicable, Shiba Kuzuru finally sat cross-legged in the gym, looked at them with a wine bowl, and whispered:

"I'm not welcome to you, although that guy is my good friend, there are too many of them right now. I hate death, you know that."

"Oh? I see, I'm sorry I didn't think about it, and it's a remiss of my duty."

"You've taken this into account so much that you're constantly stuffing people on my side with that guy from Aizen Sosuke, right?"

"Hahaha, how could it be. I do, after all."

The man in the green robe and striped hat said with a folding fan and a smile:

"Miss Shiba Kuzuru's appeal does not conflict with Aizen Sosuke in essence, if I had really known Miss Shiba's location, or if I had figured out the Shiba family's grief earlier, I wouldn't have made such a move."

「……」

Looking at the smiling Kisuke Urahara and the yawning black cat, Shiba felt that his home was like a toilet for this group of people, and he could come and go as he wanted.

In fact, in such a long time, Shiba Kuzuru has figured out some things.

She's not an enemy of Aizen.

Yes, after three days of calm thinking and judgment, Shiba Kutsuru remembered her long-cherished wish as a Shiba family, and then corresponded to Aizen Sosuke's goal, and she was surprised to find that her duties and thoughts did not conflict with Aizen Sosuke's thoughts.

The Shiba family's long-standing wish has always been to let the betrayed Spirit King get a complete ending. Even to this day, that great victim is still sealed alone inside the Spirit King's Palace, serving as a wedge in the Three Realms to stabilize the structure of this world. This kind of world, built on betrayal and humiliation, is unbearable for the Shiba family. At the beginning, they opposed the implementation of this plan, but now it is a complete thing.

Their desire is to one day find a way to free the Spirit King from infinite suffering.

In order to prevent the Spirit King from having that earth-shaking power, the Tsunaya family divided the Spirit King into corpses and supervised them, which was full of intrigues and betrayals that were unspeakable. The rest of the clan acquiesced, but the Shiba family kept trying to stop the atrocity.

But there is no way, the Tsunayo family, as a family that records history, has too many ways to play with the Shiba family, who has mastered the pass. In the end, the man who sacrificed everything for the sake of this world was cut alive into a human stick, and all the internal organs and limbs were cut off and splashed into the world

Every corner. And in Matsumoto Ranju's body, there is a spirit king's fingertips.

So when the initial excitement passed, Shiba Kuzuru suddenly realized that what Aizen Sosuke said was right.

The Shiba family really doesn't have any reason to confront the current Aizen Sosuke.

In the final analysis, the Grim Reaper and the Zhibo family will not have any other thoughts about how many deaths the Spirit Court has, and the existence of the Spirit King, after so many years, the original guilt has also turned into an obsession. And once Aizen Sosuke's plan is implemented, it will be a new era for their family no matter what.

Her eldest brother, her uncle, her parents, everything is for the survival of the Spirit King and the family. And after deducting the emotional time at the beginning, Shiba Kuragu now has Kurosaki Ichigo exercising chakra here because they are no longer the Grim Reaper. Although it is still uncertain whether it will be reversed to Aizen Sosuke or how, compared to those ugly Grim Reapers, the scales of Shiba Kuzuru have begun to gradually balance.

Aizen wasn't a good thing, but he fought against the Grim Reaper, and he intended to free the Spirit King from eternal suffering.

And the self-proclaimed righteous Grim Reaper has always parasitized this deformed world.

In addition to the initial resentment towards Aizen Sosuke's words and deeds, Shiba Kuzuru, who calmed down, did discover the fact that he and Aizen Sosuke were likely to belong to the same camp. Because this fact is a bit too disgusting, Shiba Kuzuru didn't plan to help Aizen either.

She didn't plan to help the Grim Reapers, nor did she plan to help Aizen Sosuke, and when time came to explain all this, this was the best option. After all, if Aizen Sosuke is really a decent person, or looks upright like Ichigo's younger brother, Shiba Kutsuru has no choice, and just follows Aizen to do big things. But Aizen Souki is a person...... It's easy to make people rebellious.

The more I listened to him, the more I felt that I would have to beat this person sooner or later, and I would be sorry for myself if I didn't beat him.

"Whatever you say, you're dead in the end. The Shiba family has already paid a lot for the Grim Reaper, so from my point of view, as long as it is the Grim Reaper, I don't want to welcome it. It's just that the problem with Aizen Sosuke is too serious now, and I can only do it for the time being."

"Death doesn't welcome? Have we done anything wrong?"

Matsumoto Ranju pointed at himself in confusion, and asked a little confused:

"I'm also a vice-captain, and if something goes wrong, I think I'll be able to speak. What's going on?"

"You individuals have done nothing wrong, but the Grim Reaper is a group of original sin."

「???」

Completely ignoring the confused Matsumoto Ranju, Shiba Kuzuru looked at Kisuke Urahara and Yoichi Shikaedin in front of him.

In the face of such an inquiry from the Shiba family, Kisuke Urahara pulled the brim of his hat. Looking at the good girlfriend in front of him who seemed to be a little afraid to face it, and could only bias the cat's head, Shiba Kuzuru sighed and set his eyes on the sky that had re-aroused the captain-level spiritual pressure and began to fly around the ghost path.

"I've always hated death, and I've always hated it, and it was the same now. I don't have much of a liking or dislike for the Grim Reaper, even if it's the female Grim Reaper who killed my eldest brother, the Kuchiki Rukia who is now being arrested, as long as I come to apologize, I won't say anything. But I don't have any good feelings about the Grim Reaper as a whole. Even if it's for someone like Aizen Sosuke, it's the same."

「……」

「……」

「……」

There was silence for a moment.

Matsumoto Ranju was full of question marks, she had no idea what was going on, and she didn't even know why she was here.

The other Urahara Kisuke and Shikaede Yaichi glanced at each other, and finally looked at Shiba Kuzuru in front of him, who seemed to be waiting to be convinced.

"You don't have to take it too seriously, Miss Shiba Kuzuru. It's just that I have an opinion on my side, or a bad one

Familiar considerations."

Kisuke Urahara pulled the brim of his hat and whispered:

"After talking to Lord Ye, I have a little understanding of the affairs between the Spirit King and the five nobles. Here are a part of the Spirit King's body, the heirs of the Shiba family and the Shifeng Yuan family, who have considerable knowledge among the five nobles, and, as a representative, I have been to the Spirit King's Palace."

"Aizen Sosuke tried to reach the Spirit King's Palace and destroy the Spirit King to fulfill his idea, even at the expense of creating the King Key and constructing the existence of Team Zero. But now he completely ignored the matter of the Spirit King and Team Zero, and even didn't care about our existence or the deeds of the Spirit King. If he really has a memory of the future as he said, then either Aizen Yusuke didn't know anything about Team Zero at all, or he realized something, so he rejected his original plan, and he didn't even plan to do anything to the Spirit King's Palace."

"That guy isn't someone who will give up casually, even if it's a so-called change, his essence is Aizen Sosuke. Wanting to be above everyone else is his thought and his action. Even if it's the Spirit King, Aizen Yousuke will definitely not let it go. But now, he didn't show any intention to hurt or deliberately affect the Spirit King, which makes us have a rather strange judgment."

Kisuke Urahara jumped over Matsumoto Ranju, who was the Spirit King's fingertips but didn't realize it at all, and looked at Shiba Kuzuru in front of him, who was muttering and didn't know what he was thinking.

"So, Miss Shiba Kuzuru, I have a reluctant request. Can you send us to the Spirit King's Palace? We have to prove something."

"Aizen Souke...... Maybe he's standing with the Spirit King."
