Chapter 74 The Deaths of the First Captains
Although reluctant, Lucia, unable to resist, officially began living with Høhnheim in the Frankish court, along with Yhwach and Holmenx.
She initially wanted to find an opportunity to kill Yhwach, but after several unsuccessful attempts, she simply decided to follow Yhwach.
She felt that although Hohenheim, Yhbach's teacher, had no name in history, judging from Yhbach's earnest study, he must have been capable.
So Yhwach can learn all sorts of knowledge from him, and so can Rukia!
Since she can't kill Yhwach now, she'll grow alongside him!
If Yhwach has grown from his current level to the point of almost destroying Soul Society, then she also needs to hurry up and grow!
Strive to grow to the point where we can stop Yhwach from launching a war in two hundred years. If we can't do it in two years, then we'll stop it in a thousand years!
During this time, she also discovered that Hohenheim's abilities were neither Quincy nor Fullbring, and were even different from all the spirit particle systems she was familiar with.
Although the West Bureau has magicians and witches, it should essentially be a kind of manipulation of spirit particles.
But Hohenheim was different. He seemed to be consuming some kind of special spiritual power, which Hohenheim called spirituality. This spirituality was not the same as spiritual power, and the abilities he used were completely different from the power of the spirit particle system.
She was somewhat surprised by this ability, but didn't think much of it, assuming it was a system unique to Europe.
After all, the world is vast, and she was only a vice-captain before, so she didn't know much about it.
While Rukia was growing up in Hohenheim, enjoying good food and drink, Hitsugaya was working hard to rebuild the Soul Society far away.
It's been almost a month since I transmigrated here.
Over the course of the past month, she went through Saito's memories from beginning to end and gradually adapted to life in this era. Although she was still very unaccustomed to being a woman, Hitsugaya was not one to wallow in self-pity. Since she could not change the facts, she could only try to accept them for the time being.
Of course, this acceptance refers to temporarily operating under Saito's identity; given the opportunity, she would naturally want to return to her own world.
The Soul Society was completely destroyed, and it will take at least a decade or more to rebuild it.
As for the rampant plague, it was contained thanks to the treatment of Retsu Unohana and Tenjiro Kirinji.
Unfortunately, she never got to meet Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Surprisingly, Yoriichi went to investigate the vampires after confirming that nothing bad would happen to the Soul Society.
She didn't know what a vampire was; it seemed to be a unique evil creature of this era.
As one of the first wounded to recover, she was in charge of the reconstruction of a large area and naturally had no time to look for Yoriichi.
Today, she went to the medical shed as usual.
Why are you all alone?
After lifting the curtain and entering the medical room, they found that only Kirinji was there.
Kirinji was still studying something when he said without even looking up, "Lie wasn't originally a member of the Seireitei. Yuan Liuzhai has already woken up. If she doesn't leave, won't she be entangled with you?"
"Yamamoto Sou... Genryusai, he's awake?"
Hitsugaya almost blurted out "Captain-Commander Yamamoto" on impulse, but thankfully he realized his mistake at the last moment, coughed, and asked with some delight.
Kirinji then looked up, seeing Saito's somewhat pleased expression, and asked in surprise, "When did you become so close to Genryusai?"
Although Saito joined the assassin organization formed by Yamamoto, to be honest, she was recruited by Yamamoto through force, and Saito herself wanted to make a name for herself, which is why she joined.
Their relationship wasn't strictly a leader-subordinate one; it was more like a group of evil people banded together by interests and force.
"...I was just thinking that if Yuan Liuzhai wakes up, I won't have to go through all this trouble."
Hitsugaya asked in a deep voice, "Where are the others?"
She knew that the losses suffered by the Spirit Court this time were extremely serious.
Many of the people she thought should have become the first captains of the Gotei 13 are dead!
For example, the first captain of the third division, Iwahara Kinroku; the first captain of the fourth division, Shishima Chigiri; the first captain of the fifth division, Obana Danjiro; the first captain of the ninth division, Hisami Ente; and actually, the first captain of the sixth division, Saito Immortal.
It's just that Hitsugaya traveled through time, allowing Saito, who was immortal, to be resurrected once.
As for the subsequent captains, it's mainly because Yamamoto hasn't recruited them yet; otherwise, if they were also in the Soul Society, several more would probably have died.
This made Hitsugaya wonder if the Gotei 13 would still exist in this world.
With so many first-generation captains dead, and Unohana showing absolutely no interest in joining the Gotei 13 for some unknown reason, where are they going to find thirteen captains?
"The losses are heavy," Kirinji said with a sigh. "Shihouin and Shikatori are still unconscious. Shishino is showing signs of waking up, but apart from that, even though I have prepared an antidote, it will be difficult to save the lives of the remaining ordinary souls."
"The stronger a person's spiritual pressure, the greater their chances of survival."
The Shihōin he mentioned refers to the first captain of the 2nd Division, Shihōin Sennichi; the Shikatori is the first captain of the 8th Division, Shikatori Hakunsai; and the Shikatori is the first captain of the 7th Division, Shikatori Taketsuna.
When Yamamoto established the Gotei 13, he initially followed the order of arrival, with whoever arrived first becoming the captain of the next number. Shihouin Senhi was definitely the earliest partner, so he was in the second division.
After all, the first generation was an assassin group, and the responsibilities of each division of the Gotei 13 were only defined later, and even then, the division wasn't very detailed.
In short, we've reached the Ninth Division, which has a total of nine people, and four of them have already died...
Where is Yuan Liuzhai?
Suppressing his inner emotions, Hitsugaya casually asked...
"Well..."
Kirinji did not answer, but simply said, "It's best if you don't disturb them now."
?
Hitsugaya was puzzled, but Kirinji didn't say anything more, because Yamamoto was indeed talking to an important person.
"I really didn't expect that such a big thing would happen in the Soul Society if I wasn't careful for a moment."
Sitting right in front of Yamamoto was none other than the royal guard, the creator of all Zanpakuto, known as the God of Swords, Nimaiya Oetsu!
