Takasugi and Rentaro's eyes widened, revealing expressions of terror.
A serious white-haired Old Man, a lazy middle-aged man in a straw hat, and an angry, smiling dark-skinned girl.
The three, clad in white haori, stood in the sunlight and walked towards them.
"You two have a lot of guts, daring to lay hands on my people," Yoruichi Shihōin snarled, pressing her knuckles, making a "crack, crack" sound.
Kyōraku Shunsui sighed, "Although that Reiji kid always makes me angry, he's still my junior disciple, no matter what."
"If I just let it go, Yamamoto would definitely lecture me endlessly, and Lisa would also be unhappy, honestly... So, please stay here."
Hearing this, Takasugi and Rentaro hadn't reacted yet, but Yoruichi Shihōin's eye twitched first upon hearing Lisa Yadomaru's name.
Ginrei Kuchiki glanced at the two young men, then walked silently towards Takasugi and Rentaro.
He still wasn't very good at dealing with young people.
And rather than lecturing enemies at length, he preferred to act directly.
Takasugi and Rentaro looked as if they had seen ghosts, sitting on the ground and constantly scrambling backward, wanting only to get as far away as possible from the three who had suddenly appeared before them, as if they were some terrifying monsters.
As the Reiatsu of the three monsters erupted without restraint, their faces instantly turned pale.
Boom!!
Boom!!
Boom!!
Feeling the three powerful spiritual pressures, Aozaki Reiji raised his head, looked in the direction where the two Captain-class Shinigami had fled, and grinned.
They were all familiar faces.
These three, working together, could even put up a fight against Yamamoto.
Although Aozaki Reiji sensed the Reiatsu of the three, he truly couldn't deduce the detailed situation of the battle from it.
But he understood that the outcome was already decided; even if all the experts from the Tsunayashiro Family came, it would be impossible to take someone from these three.
Not long after, Under the curious gazes of Ryusui, Izumo, and the Sixth Division Squad members, Kyōraku Shunsui and Yoruichi Shihōin slowly walked over.
"Yoruichi!" Aozaki Reiji called out loudly.
Hearing his voice, Yoruichi Shihōin grinned, waved at him, and quickly ran over.
"Reiji, are you alright?"
Kyōraku Shunsui stepped forward with Shunpo, looking heartbroken, and said irritably, "You brat, your Senior Disciple is here too!"
"I'm fine," Aozaki Reiji held Yoruichi Shihōin's hand, comforting her softly.
Only after seeing Yoruichi nod did he turn his head, "Senior Disciple, you're here too!"
Kyōraku Shunsui: "..."
This kid really prioritizes women over friends; if this keeps up, his Senior Disciple will really get angry!
Just as Kyōraku Shunsui was about to complain, Aozaki Reiji suddenly said with solemnity:
"Senior Disciple, thank you."
"...Reiji, are you really alright?"
Looking at Aozaki Reiji's serious expression, his blood-soaked and swaying appearance, Kyōraku Shunsui was silent for a moment before he couldn't help but ask.
With a large gash on his chest bleeding and a big hole in his shoulder, he didn't look alright at all.
Could it be that this kid doesn't want me to worry, or is he trying to show off in front of a girl?
Aozaki Reiji patted his chest, then coughed up a mouthful of blood, immediately wiping his mouth with a nonchalant expression, and said:
"Just a minor injury, it's nothing; the main thing is that my Reiatsu is severely overdrawn."
"What happened to those two guys?"
Kyōraku Shunsui glanced at him and said with a smile:
"One of the rebels, who was already more heavily injured, was accidentally killed by us."
"The other one was also captured, and Captain Kucihki is escorting him to the Central District, awaiting trial by Central 46..."
Aozaki Reiji nodded, quite satisfied with this result.
After all, those two were Captain-class, and couldn't be easily killed.
Plus, with previous experience, they had learned their lesson this time and didn't say anything they shouldn't have.
The one who survived was Takasugi; he was cut once by each of Kyōraku Shunsui and the other two, then promptly surrendered.
As for Rentaro, he was already severely injured, and before he could even beg for mercy, Yoruichi decapitated him with one strike, accidentally killing him.
Compared to Rentaro, who was "accidentally killed,"
Takasugi was very lucky; his life was temporarily saved, and he had the chance to await trial by Central 46.
It was just unknown what kind of verdict Central 46 would issue.
"That guy named Takasugi is really too timid; he just got one cut from us, and he spilled the entire story."
Yoruichi Shihōin curled her lip in disdain, "But that Rentaro, he really had guts; he knew your identity and still dared to come kill you."
Aozaki Reiji raised an eyebrow, "So you killed him?"
"An accident, just an accident, you won't blame me, will you?" Yoruichi Shihōin waved her hand, sticking out her tongue, and said, "Don't worry, I'll handle Central 46."
"How could I blame you? I'm overjoyed."
Aozaki Reiji shook his head, "If that guy named Takasugi hadn't come early, I would have killed him myself."
Facing someone who wanted to kill him, he wasn't willing to compromise.
Constant forbearance would only make these guys think he was weak and easily bullied, leading to endless trouble.
If you want to kill him, you must pay the price.
And life was just the right price.
"Speaking of which, little Junior Disciple is really amazing; he defeated a Captain-class.
Kyōraku Shunsui grinned, spreading his hands with a frightened expression.
"In a few more years, I'm afraid even Senior Disciple won't be your match."
Aozaki Reiji shrugged and smiled:
"What are you saying, Senior Disciple? I just got lucky, and besides, that Rentaro is no match for a Gotei 13 Captain at all."
What he said was the truth.
The higher the Reiatsu level, the more difficult the cultivation.
He really wasn't confident he could catch up to Kyōraku Shunsui in a few years.
Now with the Maggot's Nest prisoners as sparring partners, his cultivation speed wouldn't fall behind.
But once he reached Third-Class Spiritual Power, who would he find to spar with?
Finding prisoners from the Maggot's Nest again wouldn't be very efficient, and he couldn't fight Yoruichi Shihōin too fiercely.
He couldn't possibly go to the Central Underground Great Prison!
His cultivation speed would definitely decrease then; he needed to figure out a plan.
Aozaki Reiji stroked his chin, pondering for a moment but couldn't think of any good ideas, so he could only sigh in disappointment.
Kyōraku Shunsui didn't notice anything unusual about him, only assuming he was uncomfortable due to his injuries.
Glancing at Yoruichi Shihōin, who was fussing over Aozaki Reiji, Kyōraku Shunsui's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Captain Yoruichi, little Junior Disciple is too heavily injured, so I'll trouble you to take him to the Fourth Division."
"Alright," Yoruichi Shihōin quickly raised her hand.
Aozaki Reiji raised an eyebrow, "What about you, Senior Disciple? Are you trying to slack off?"
You brat, how can you think of your Senior Disciple like that? Is that the kind of person your Senior Disciple is in your eyes?
Kyōraku Shunsui rolled his eyes, "What time is it, and you're still thinking about slacking off?"
"I need to stay and clean up this mess, and the situation here needs to be reported to our teacher, right?"
"What, what does that expression mean? Do you not trust your Senior Disciple?"
"Or how about you go to our teacher instead of me, and I'll go to the Fourth Division instead of you?"
"No, let's not; such things can't be substituted," Aozaki Reiji waved his hand.
