Chapter 605 598. Xuan Hao: Hello everyone, my name is Zhiba Ganjiu
"Hey...did we really go to the wrong place?"
On the outskirts of Rukongai, Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the deserted surroundings and asked hesitantly, "We seem to be far away from the village, and those souls don't look like bad people? They shouldn't be playing tricks on us, right?"
"..."
No one answered his question.
"Let me ask you! Ishida! Didn't you hold the map? Could it be that you were led the wrong way?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Kurosaki Ichigo poked Uryū Ishida who was walking in front of him holding a map.
"Don't be verbose, I did follow the map given by the village elder! If you have any objections, why don't you lead the way!? You are an idiot who can't even read a map!"
Uryū Ishida answered angrily while holding the map.
Although he had some doubts about whether he had gone to the wrong place, Yoruichi, who was sitting on his shoulder, didn't say anything, so he just kept walking with his head down.
"Don't... don't quarrel..."
Inoue Orihime tried to persuade the two men to argue while pushing their faces away from each other, "Mr. Yoruichi, are we going the wrong way?"
"Hmm...probably not?"
Yoruichi tilted the cat's head and replied.
"should……"
Everyone was a little ashamed.
Why does the whole thing seem so unreliable?
"Isn't that man named Kūkaku the only one who knows how to enter the Seireitei without going through the gate? Why doesn't such a capable person live on the street? Wouldn't it be nice to be praised by others?"
"Not everyone likes to be praised..."
Yoruichi shook his head slightly and said in a helpless tone, "Given her personality, she would indeed prefer a quiet place like this, so she shouldn't have gone wrong."
Kurosaki Ichigo scratched his head and complained, "Why does it feel unreliable at all..."
"Don't worry...even though the place where that guy lives always changes, Angzi still looks like that. I can recognize him as soon as I see him."
Saying that, Yoruichi jumped off Ishida Uryu's shoulder and walked slowly ahead to lead the way.
"All of a sudden... is it true or false?"
Everyone looked at each other, a little unconvinced.
"Really, huh... I think I've seen where she lives."
Yoruichi raised his head, "Look, it's over there."
"That is……"
After hearing this, everyone looked in the direction pointed by Ye Yi, and then they all turned to stone together.
What kind of ghost is this? What kind of person would build the place where he lives to look like that? This is no longer a problem that can be recognized at once! Such a strange building is too recognisable.
What a hell!
"Well... this time it's a cloth strip held by someone's hand. I remember what it was like last time... Well, forget it, I can't remember it, but it doesn't feel bad."
Yoruichi looked at Shiba Kukaku's mansion in the distance and commented calmly.
"not bad……"
Kurosaki Ichigo and others stared at me and you, with the corners of their mouths twitching.
Well, some people seem to agree with Yoruichi. For example, Inoue Orihime thinks this kind of architectural style is cool.
"Speaking of which, what is the use of such a big chimney behind the house? It is much taller than the house and completely out of proportion..."
Uryū Ishida looked around and couldn't figure out how the owner of this mansion thought of building the house like this, so he asked with some confusion.
"This... you will know soon."
Yoruichi gave up and walked elegantly towards the direction of the building.
Soon everyone approached and saw a burly man guarding the door of the house.
"There are quite a few people visiting today..."
Jin Yan looked at the group of people walking towards here impatiently. He was already ready to chase them away, but suddenly he saw the elegant black cat on the ground, and his attitude suddenly changed.
"Eh!? Lord Ye...Yorami! You...you have returned to Soul Society?"
"Um."
Ye raised her paw and said hello, "Long time no see, Jin Yan, we are here to see Kong He. You are the only one guarding the door today? Where is your brother?"
"Forehead……"
Jin Yan scratched his head, "There are really a lot of people looking for Master Konghe today. Someone came here before and hasn't come out yet. Yin Yan is still inside."
"Hmm? Besides us, is there anyone else looking for Kukaku? Who is it?"
Yoruichi asked with a slight frown.
She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt an ominous premonition, a chill ran down her spine, and the hair on her body almost stood up unconsciously.
"do not know……"
Jin Yan scratched his head and replied, "He is a young man who looks very...well...handsome and a bit enviable."
"..."
Is it too late for me to turn back now?
Yoruichi thought like this, and kept walking backwards with cat steps, but he bumped into Uryu Ishida behind him.
"What's wrong? Mr. Yoichi? Are you suddenly feeling unwell?"
Inoue Orihime saw Yoruichi staggering backwards and walking unsteadily. She knelt down and asked with some worry, and reached out to hug her.
"..."
Let me go, I want to leave here. Yoruichi is very desperate. Although she really wants to say this, it seems too embarrassing to say it in front of these brats, and she really can't say it.
As soon as she heard Jin Yan's description, she knew it was that man.
?
wrong!
How can it be corrected? Doesn't this mean that he admits that the guy is handsome? Yoichi is extremely upset.
"Oh... forget it, business is more important. Let's take us in to see Konghe first, Jin Yan."
In the end, Ye Yi chose to give up treatment.
"Okay, Lord Yoruichi."
Although Jin Yan was a little confused by Yoichi's sudden reaction, he still obediently opened the door and led the way.
Everyone followed Jin Yan's footsteps all the way down to the deepest part of the mansion.
"Please rest here for a while, I will go and make an announcement first."
Jin Yan said hello to several people and then came to the door of the deepest room.
Yin Yan was still guarding the door, and the people inside seemed to be still talking.
"Then what does this kid want to do with Master Konghe? Haven't we finished talking about it yet?"
Jin Yan asked Yin Yan who was guarding the door, but Yin Yan just spread his hands and shook his head helplessly.
The room had been quiet since the man entered, and he couldn't even hear any communication coming from inside.
"Do you want to knock on the door to announce it?"
After looking at the people following his brother Jin Yan, Yin Yan suggested.
"Is it Jin Yan?"
But before Jin Yan could answer, a female voice called out from inside the room.
"Yes, Master Konghe."
Jin Yan replied, "Another group of people came outside, brought by Mr. Ye Da."
"That's a distinguished guest. Just bring him in." The person inside answered.
"OK."
Jin Yan responded and then returned to Yoruichi and his group, leading them to the door.
Then, he and Yinyan opened the door to the left and right and said, "Please come in."
"..."
Under the leadership of Yoruichi, Kurosaki Ichigo and others walked into this spacious room looking around.
"Hi, Yoruichi, long time no see."
A bold female voice came, attracting everyone's attention.
Several people followed the sound and turned red.
"That 'Kong He' is a woman?"
Even Orihime Inoue felt her cheeks turn red slightly when she looked at the other party's revealing outfit. She subconsciously looked at Kurosaki Ichigo's reaction, then looked down at her own, well, she didn't lose!
Just when everyone was marveling at the 'unconventional' nature of the woman in front of them, Yoruichi was looking around looking for something.
Others didn't seem to realize who the person who came here before them was, but Yoruichi, who had a shadow in his heart, was extremely sensitive to this matter.
"Fortunately... there is no one, he must have left, right? After all, that man is always elusive and scary..."
Yoruichi thought to himself and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If she was being fucked like a cat in front of these people, where would she put her old face?
"What's wrong? Yoichi."
Shiba Kukaku noticed Yoruichi's nervous look and asked with some confusion, "And who are these brats behind you? Why did you bring them to me?"
"Uh...nothing."
Yoruichi shook his head slightly, "Actually, I came here to ask you to do a small favor."
"Sure enough, you won't come to me if nothing happens. It's really sad~"
Shiba Kukaku shook the cigarette stick in his hand with a resentful expression and exhaled a breath, "Tell me, what's the matter? You can't even solve it by yourself, so you have to come to me for help... It should be difficult, right?"
"Well, it's indeed a bit difficult."
Yoruichi answered without hesitation.
"Hahaha, that's good! Let's hear it!"
An excited smile appeared on Shiba Kukaku's face, "If it's not difficult to do, I'm not interested."
She is extremely excited now, and she wants to turn the entire Soul Society upside down immediately.
"Forehead……"
Seeing Shiba Kukaku agreeing so readily, Yoruichi always felt that something was not quite right.
Did that man say something to this guy?
"..."
"I see."
After a simple exchange, Shiba Kukaku understood Yoruichi's purpose, "You want me to help you enter the Seireitei, right? I'll help you with this."
"Huh? Seriously?"
Kurosaki Ichigo and others also looked at each other in confusion.
Isn’t this person too talkative?
"Humph, is there any benefit to me from lying to you?"
Shiba Kūkaku glared at Kurosaki Ichigo who asked the question angrily.
Listen to what the man said... Is the only Shinigami among this group of people besides Yoruichi, this guy? This guy seems to be Uncle Isshin's son... her cousin?
This person who dares to say anything without any hesitation is indeed carved from the same mold.
"But my promise to help you is not completely unconditional."
"What conditions?"
Yoruichi tilted his head.
"Although I trust you very much, these brats are not familiar with me." Shiba Kukaku chuckled and looked at Yoruichi, "So I have to send someone to follow you and keep a lookout. Is that okay?"
"no problem."
Yoruichi was slightly stunned. Although he didn't know the other party's intention, he had to agree after all.
"So who are you going to send to keep an eye on us? Jin Yan? Yin Yan? Or..."
"Don't guess. In fact, I just want you to take my unsatisfactory brother for a test."
Shiba Kūkaku stood up leisurely and opened the screen behind him, with a faint smile on his face, "Then let me introduce to you, my incompetent brother. He doesn't have any great abilities. If he can't get into the elegant hall, it's up to you.
Please take good care of me."
As he said that, the screen was slowly pushed open.
"Hello everyone!"
A man who looked a little stupid sat behind the screen and greeted everyone with a smile, "My name is Shiba Iwaji, please take care of me!"
······
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
From time to time, whimpering sounds could be heard from the gunpowder warehouse used to store fireworks in the deepest part of Shiba Kūkaku's mansion.
If Kurosaki Ichigo and others were here, they would probably be surprised to find that this poor guy who was gagged and thrown in the warehouse looked exactly like the 'Shiba Iwajiu' in front of them.
Why did the eldest sister tie me up!? Woohoo...Help! Who will save me!? I swear I will never ride a pig around again! Isn’t that right? I seem to be quite honest lately! I haven’t trespassed either.
What a big disaster and why do you have to be locked up?
Shiba Iwajiu was puzzled, and kept struggling and whimpering with tears streaming down his face.
I obviously didn't do anything, what evil have I done!?
······
"Clang-"
The cell door was pushed open.
"Um?"
Rukia Kuchiki slowly turned her head when she heard the movement behind her.
She saw Abarai Renji who came here with a group of people.
"What's the matter? Renji...has the execution date been moved forward again?"
"..."
Renji shook his head slightly. The execution date has already been brought forward once, how could it be brought forward again? After all, the fact that the date would be brought forward is very strange.
"There are less than fourteen days left before the execution day. I will transfer you to the fourth deep cell of the Penitence Palace."
"..."
Kuchiki Rukia stopped talking after hearing this.
And Abarai Renji just waved his hand lightly to signal the people behind him to come forward and escort him.
There was no words for the entire journey, and Rukia Kuchiki was soon taken to the top room of a white tower, which was where those who were about to be 'executed' were finally imprisoned.
From here, looking out through the windows at the top of the tower, you can clearly see the torture instrument used for execution - double death.
Sinners will make their final repentance here, watching the determined death approach them step by step.
However, the eyes Rukia Kuchiki looked at Shuangshu didn't seem to contain any regret or fear.
Of course she didn't have to confess, because it was the same as what the man had reminded her, and it was obviously a conspiracy.
There was no way that his crime would be executed in advance. The whole thing seemed to be controlled by an invisible big hand from behind, accelerating himself towards the sharp edge of death.
"untie."
Renji Abarai followed the procedure and released the restraints on Rukia Kuchiki. This cage was completely different from the prison in their team. It was not like the current Rukia who had not fully recovered her power of death.
People can break through, so there is no need to restrain them. This may be the last act of 'mercy', right?
