Chapter 247 Chapter 246: The Hasty Gotei 13

"Assemble!"

A full-throated voice.

It came from Omaeda Kichiyo.

"Have you guys been harassing other ordinary people in Rukongai recently?"

The people from the Secret Mobile Force looked at each other, all at a loss.

What's going on?

"Someone reported it! They said that people in our team were bullying the weak and embarrassing others!"

Let's be frank.

"We are now living in Rukongai. Although everyone is still a Shinigami, we must never do that kind of bullying."

"This is not only the will of the captain, but also something that the captain-in-chief has personally ordered!"

"Do you all understand!!!"

-- Similar remarks are quite popular in each squad.

In a sense, it also shows the heavy responsibilities of the Gotei 13 at the moment...

Nearly half a month has passed since the riot caused by Aizen Sosuke.

The entire Soul Society was destroyed, although it did not cause an exaggerated number of casualties.

But the instability brought by the lack of a stable residence has also changed many things like a chain reaction.

The temporary relocation of the Gotei 13 to Rukongai was also a helpless move.

"By the way, Vice Captain, you were seriously injured before, right? Are you okay now?"

It is comforting to be cared for, but some things will make people feel creepy just by mentioning them.

"Of course, it's thanks to the Fourth Division. There are also many people in our team who are cared for by them... In the future, you have to be more polite to others!"

Lifesaver, so be it.

After explaining the matters at hand, Omaeda did not stop and left the temporary station of the Second Division immediately.

——Someone is busy with the reconstruction work, and the captain also has some other things to deal with.

As for himself?

Of course, it is better to hurry up and do some business with my father!

After all, if you want to rebuild the Soul Society, there are not a few resources that need to be consumed here.

Wu~ This is a rare fortune!

Although I feel a little sorry for the captain for thinking about getting rich at this time, I have contributed a little, right?

Those stabs from you guys can't be in vain!

After convincing himself, Omaeda quickened his pace.

Soon, the second team without the leader became free again.

After all, they were not in the Soul Society, and lacked a sense of mission, so their behavior became much looser.

"But speaking of this, does the vice-captain of the 4th Division have any relationship with that traitor?"

"Ah...you mean that. The recently talked about Kotetsu Yuune?"

"Let's not talk too much about it. That person was said to be found in the 4th Division's barracks, covered in blood...it seems that he almost died."

"Huh? Self-harm?"

"How could that be? He must have been beaten by that traitor."

"That guy looks stupid, it's normal for him to be deceived...after all, he looks like he's easy to deal with."

"I just like driving big cars."

"You're not right!"

The topic was getting more and more off-topic, but there are always people who don't like this kind of cheap jokes.

They started discussing other things instead.

"Speaking of this, the man who destroyed the entire Soul Society...was the captain of the 5th Division?"

"He was the former captain of the 5th Division...Don't forget this prefix, or the captain will get mad when he hears it."

"I see...What's the situation of the 5th Division now? I used to have a good impression of them because they were very professional in every aspect."

"Looks very listless, after all, he has a deep relationship with that guy. The so-called collapse seems to be this situation."

"Also, the vice-captain fell ill directly?"

"Maybe it was just to avoid suspicion, everyone saw what happened that day."

"So is it possible that the vice-captain is also a traitor?"

"Such words should be said among us. If others hear it, it will cause unnecessary gossip..."

People's words are scary.

Even if you are repeatedly told not to discuss related matters.

These trivial words will still emerge one after another.

Objective things will not change according to human will...This is a proof of this truth.

On the other side.

Chojiro Suzuki, with dark circles under his eyes, sorted out the documents in his hand and was about to stand up and enter.

This was the first meeting after the destruction of the Soul Society.

If the solemnity could not be highlighted, it would certainly make everyone lack confidence in the Gotei 13.

As a member of the organizing team, Chojiro Suzuki had conducted several drills and preparations.

There was no way he would fail today.

But before he was about to take action.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni took a few steps ahead and went directly in front of him.

"From today on, let's cut down on unnecessary procedures."

"But..."

"This is my consideration, and it is also a part that I think needs to be streamlined."

The unquestionable tone, accompanied by the slightly desolate back of the old man, made Chojiro Suzuki feel like something was stuck in his throat.

The Soul Society has disappeared.

Such red tape seems to have no need to continue.

Keep everything simple.

Efficiency first.

It can only be said that the environment can indeed change people's minds - at least before all these "big changes" happened, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni would not believe that he could agree to this type of proposal.

The old man walked forward slowly, but Suzu Chojiro passed by again and stood by the door.

The vice-captain of the first team bowed slightly and whispered.

"At least... let me be the leader for you."

"..."

No comment.

The two who have been partners for a thousand years walked into the temporary meeting room at this moment.

Here they come.

The originally subtle atmosphere suddenly changed, and with everyone's eyes focused, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni took a deep breath.

He whispered.

"Let's start."

The long-lost captain's meeting.

Although the venue has changed slightly, the topics and content have basically not changed in any major direction.

"There is no need to emphasize the losses this time, and everyone knows the interests involved..."

"Therefore, I will try to pick out the important ones."

"The number of casualties confirmed so far...property losses...estimated resources and time required for reconstruction..."

The data listed is shocking.

Just hearing it makes people feel numb.

Namo San...

Even the most optimistic Kyoraku Shunsui has closed his eyes helplessly.

"The above is the loss, so if there is no problem. Let's move on to the next topic..."

After a pause, Suzu Chojiro took a half step back and continued.

"Because of the previous incident, the captain position is vacant. At present, the captain positions of the third, fifth, and ninth squads are temporarily vacant."

"The tenth squad has gone through internal elections, proposals, and recommendations."

"The number of positions has been determined a few days ago..."

There was a sound of clatter.

Hitsugaya Toushirou, who was neatly dressed and had a serious expression, walked quickly towards the crowd wearing the captain's haori.

After several twists and turns, the captain of the 10th Division finally went in the established direction.

But even so...

The now empty conference room still makes people feel inexplicably sad.

"Captain Hitsugaya, please say a few words."

Adjusting the atmosphere is also one of the captain's responsibilities. Hearing the urging, Toushirou nodded slightly.

"Thank you for your trust, colleagues. I will do my best to complete the work. That's all."

-Just listening to these words, some people really feel like little brats.

Speaking of this, the host, Chojiro Suzuki, also felt a little bit of laughter.

Turning over the information in his hand, he entered the next stage of the agenda.

"Do you have any corresponding opinions on this invasion of the travel disaster?"

Although Strawberry Brother and his group were directly cleared of the original suspicion because of the defection of the prison master and others.

But after all, they are also living people in the literal sense. For the behavior of casually stepping into the realm of the dead, it is not easy to forgive.

But...

"We have received his kindness, and now we absolutely cannot do anything to harm him."

Given the main tone of the discussion, the rest of the people will naturally follow this topic.

Kyoraku Shunsui said after pondering.

"In this case, I don't think it's necessary to hold him accountable."

After all, from the result, the actions of Kurosaki Ichigo and others are completely helping the Soul Society.

As for the process?

That involves the issue of procedural justice.

"We shouldn't be so pedantic as to make people unbelievable, right~ Mr. San?"

"..."

No response was given, and it was Ukitake Jushiro who took the lead.

"The strength of the young man who traveled to the disaster should not be underestimated. In this case, let him serve as the deputy god of death directly, which can also solve some of the troubles."

The big dog took off the iron bucket head and revealed his plush head and asked.

"Death god agent... does it mean an agent who stays in the real world and helps us deal with the kind of work of Hollows?"

"Yes, that's what I mean."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni did not comment on this.

——The old man didn't seem to like discussing this topic.

After selectively skipping it, everyone present subconsciously turned their attention to the position of the Sixth Division.

Kuchiki Byakuya.

The other party was wrapped in gauze and looked haggard.

It was obvious that he had not rested well during this period.

Since the topic of travel disasters was brought up, the content of the Kuchiki family would naturally be involved.

There were matters related to Kuchiki Rukia.

Because it was learned that the news of the 46th Chamber was manipulated, the various accusations against Rukia would naturally be lifted.

It should have been brought up at the meeting.

But looking at Kuchiki Byakuya's face, everyone decided to skip it directly...

It was like something that had become a convention. If it was brought up again, it would only seem a little uninteresting.

Everyone intuitively skipped this topic and moved on to other aspects.

For example...

"Matters related to the reconstruction of Seireitei."

This aspect is led by the Technology Development Bureau.

After all, everything in Soul Society is based on spirit particles. If you can take advantage of this, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who has recovered, put on a new makeup and spoke in a calm tone.

"Although there has been some progress in the research on spirit particles, I think it is better for everyone not to have too much hope."

"After all, the scope of Seireitei is so large that even if I use my genius brain and resources, it is still difficult to restore it to its original state in a short period of time."

"In addition, compared to this, I think there are more important things that need everyone's attention."

The behavior of suddenly changing the topic is really unexpected.

—— Chojiro Suzuki, who was examining the materials, almost crushed the paper.

Can't you tell me before the meeting? !

"How rude..."

Without waiting for others to respond.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi raised his hands and clapped them lightly.

"None, come in."

As Mayuri Kurotsuchi's masterpiece, and with a father-daughter relationship, Nemu Kurotsuchi obeys his orders.

The expressionless vice-captain walked in from the door, as calm as if he was walking in and out of his own living room.

"Everyone, do you remember the Eight Methods of the Ghost Path that Arima Shizuka used before leaving?"

No, no, no, you are really talking about something else.

No matter what the topic is.

Now, just hearing the name, Kuchiki Byakuya has already clenched his fists.

It's like a conditioned reflex, and the captains beside him shook their heads in their hearts.

He is so upset that he doesn't know what to say to others.

As for Mayuri Kurotsuchi...this guy never cares about other people's feelings.

Boss Kurotsuchi always just wants to be happy.

"He destroyed the entire Soul Society and used the spirit particles for attack. But in the end... his target was not the Gotei 13."

"Everyone, are you not curious about Arima Shizuya's behavior..."

"Are you not curious?"

Somewhat.

It's just that due to the situation and various tedious affairs, this matter has been pushed to the back of the list.

Now that it has been brought up.

It is necessary to discuss it.

Kyoraku Shunsui looked around and finally asked with a smile.

"So, did Captain Kuro have any specific findings?"

"Of course."

He doesn't know how to be humble and polite at all.

Kuroshita Mayuri took the thing from Nemu calmly.

"The energy of the Eight Methods of the Kidō invaded the other dimension. I traced and analyzed it and finally found..."

"It was a different dimension hidden in the shadow."

"Although it has been completely destroyed now, it is not difficult to see that this thing should have existed a long time ago."

So let's ask this question.

"Everyone, someone is spying on our every move in the shadows."

"The other party's origin, identity, and purpose are unclear."

"Based on this premise, do you have any clues?"
