Free Web NovelChapter 816: Chapter 640: He, Uehara Naraku, Is Merely an Ignorant Victim
Shihoin Yoruichi felt somewhat heavy-hearted.
For her, the appearance of Senju Hashirama, the second officer of the Thirteen Deadguard, was almost equivalent to the General of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads, Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni, coming out to slash people with Ryujin Jakka...
Who could be in a good mood?
Especially since Shihoin Yoruichi’s relationship with the Uehara Race wasn’t very good, having been personally captured by the officer Namikaze Minato, and was once nearly killed within Uehara City.
Urahara Kisuke’s mood was a bit different.
"Sounds a bit scary, doesn’t it..."
Urahara Kisuke chuckled softly, lowered his head slightly to conceal his gaze, and suddenly suggested: "Speaking of which... Yoruichi, would you like to wear one of my clothes?"
After all...
Shihoin Yoruichi’s current appearance was somewhat unsightly.
A voluptuous beauty sitting naked in front of Urahara Kisuke made him feel a bit awkward, and it seemed unsuitable to discuss serious matters in such a situation...
"Ha, are you still focused on such things now?"
Shihoin Yoruichi looked at Urahara Kisuke, couldn’t help but chuckle, stood up, unapologetically revealed her attractive figure, and took a jacket from the coat rack to put on.
The brown-skinned beauty sat in front of Urahara Kisuke again, her expression became solemn again, and she asked in a deep voice: "Have you decided what to do? If the Uehara Race insists on capturing us..."
This is not a joking matter!
Even Shihoin Yoruichi, who once boldly caused a stir in the Central 46 of Quiet Spirit Court, dared not underestimate the officers sent by the Uehara Race.
Both Shihoin Yoruichi and Urahara Kisuke had served as captains of some squads in the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads, even entered the Zero Squad, and Urahara Kisuke had also suffered oppression from the Uehara Race due to studying under Teacher Kabuto...
They knew better than others the horror of the Uehara Race!
If you seriously consider it, the Four Great Noble Clans of Quiet Spirit Court are really nothing in front of the Uehara Race, almost like beggars...
Back then, Shihoin Yoruichi rashly infiltrated Uehara City and was captured by Namikaze Minato, originally sentenced to be executed on the spot, Shihoin Family didn’t even dare to visit... If it weren’t for the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads pleading, Shihoin Yoruichi would have died there long ago!
"And... I fear they are serious."
Shihoin Yoruichi recalled that sunny youth and couldn’t help but grit her teeth, whispering: "That Namikaze Minato guy is quite troublesome..."
That bastard...
Looking so sunny and kind...
Yet showing no mercy when taking action!
Even now, although Shihoin Yoruichi has grown a lot, she still doesn’t think she can escape from Namikaze Minato, his speed is too fast...
Fast enough...
That even she couldn’t see clearly!
"When the enemy attacks, you defend; when the water comes, you cover,"
Urahara Kisuke slowly put down his fan, revealing sharp eyes, his voice lowered slightly: "Perhaps this time might be our opportunity..."
"Hmm?"
Shihoin Yoruichi looked surprised.
What opportunity could there be?
Both of them already had a bad relationship with the Uehara Race...
This time, they were also scapegoats for the Central 46 to unleash the anger of the Uehara Race, so this action must have been recognized by many sides.
"When crisis arises, opportunity is nearby."
Urahara Kisuke’s voice became lower and lower in the secret room, as if talking to himself: "The new Patriarch of the Uehara Race is a good little guy... I heard Teacher Kabuto mentioned that he is the hope for peace in the Soul Society."
Urahara Kisuke slowly lifted his head, gazing at Shihoin Yoruichi in front of him, and said softly: "Perhaps this time... is also our chance to uncover Aizen Sousuke."
At this point, Urahara Kisuke’s eyes slightly trembled, whispering: "First, the issue we face is... we must find a way to discover the true culprit behind the young Patriarch’s assassination."
"This is not easy..."
Shihoin Yoruichi shook her head, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and said, "Based on what I know, other squad members had already left the battlefield that day, and when he was assassinated, only the 5th Squad members were present..."
"Heh..."
Urahara Kisuke’s smile grew even more dramatic, his laughter almost uncontrollable: "Then it must have been Aizen Sousuke... It seems things are simpler than I imagined, we have to find a way to meet the young Patriarch."
This actually was purely Urahara Kisuke overthinking.
No matter what, Urahara Kisuke would never imagine, neither Uehara Naraku nor Aizen Sousuke’s goals were aligned at the moment...
No...
Even the entire Soul Society’s goal was aligned...
Which was to pin the blame of Uehara’s assassination on Urahara Kisuke!
Originally, Uehara Naraku had some faint good feelings for Urahara Kisuke, even considered him a potential recruit for Akatsuki...
As a result, Urahara Kisuke distanced himself from his teacher Yakushi Kabuto, even using him as a tool.
Even though Uehara Naraku considers himself magnanimous, he must stand up for his subordinates, clearly, if people can’t get along, they can part ways amicably...
But...
Using Yakushi Kabuto is a bit too much.
This kind of thing...
Is undoubtedly provoking both Akatsuki and Uehara Naraku.
While Urahara Kisuke was still pondering his own strategy, a tall figure rushed into the room, full of panic: "Manager, something big happened! Hirako and the others have sent a message, there’s already a group of shinigami targeting them!"
"Ah?"
Urahara Kisuke’s face showed a hint of surprise, he quickly closed his fan, his expression slightly grim: "That Hirako guy... won’t be too impulsive, right?"
If he’s too impulsive...
It’s very likely to result in an irreparable situation between them!
If Hirako Shinji and others conflict with the Uehara Race, given the bullying nature of the Uehara Race, even if they aren’t attacking Uehara Naraku, they will definitely be treated as enemies!
If that’s the case...
What’s the point of us thinking about a strategy here!
And at that time...
Nothing could be salvaged!
Mortal World.
An empty building.
With the help of a shinigami stationed in reality, Shiba Ishin and Namikaze Minato temporarily chose this as their resting place for these shinigami.
Meanwhile, Uehara Naraku was also temporarily residing here.
Now they finally began discussing their actions in the Mortal World after everyone had reached reality and gathered together. The first step was undoubtedly to search for Urahara Kisuke and Hirako Shinji and others.
"This is even harder than finding a needle in the ocean..."
Shiba Ishin couldn’t help but scratch his head, speaking softly: "Moreover, they all operate in the Mortal World, they must be disguising themselves with gigai to hide their spiritual pressure..."
This is the troublesome part.
If they don’t meet head-on, they definitely will not be able to detect where these people are hiding, after all, they haven’t heard from them for so many years...
Even though they occasionally know the Masked Legion is active in reality, these people disappear like water drops into the sea, even tracking the spiritual pressure trails is too late...
And speaking of which...
Shiba Ishin actually doesn’t hope to catch Hirako Shinji and the others. freeweɓnovel.cøm
After all, those Masked Legion members, including Hirako Shinji, were once captains or vice captains of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads, strictly speaking, they are also victims...
Moreover, the Uehara Naraku assassination incident remains suspicious.
This captain, Shiba Ishin, wants to delay...
The Uehara Race has no intention of delaying!
"You don’t need to worry about this issue."
Namikaze Minato slowly shook his head and said in a low voice: "After Tobirama-sama instructed, we have already identified the active area of the Masked Legion, I have sent people to that area in advance, requesting them to use the Purple Sun Formation barrier to seal off that area..."
In fact...
The strength of the Purple Sun Formation barrier may not necessarily seal people, the purpose of that barrier is just to expose the whereabouts of Hirako Shinji and the others.
After Uehara Naraku reached the Mortal World, he discovered the whereabouts of Hirako Shinji and the others, conveniently giving them enough time to pass on the matter of the Uehara Race and Guardian Court Thirteen Squads joining forces to encircle them to Urahara Kisuke...
Based on the enmity between this group of people and Aizen Sousuke...
Hirako Shinji, Urahara Kisuke, and others will definitely blame everything that happened on Aizen Sousuke!
No...
This was all orchestrated by Aizen Sousuke behind the scenes!
He, Uehara Naraku, is merely an ignorant victim.
Uehara Naraku sat in the main seat, slowly raised his head to glance at Namikaze Minato, rubbed his brow, and seemingly helplessly spoke: "Mr. Minato, please resolve the issues here quickly, after capturing those assassins, we’ll return to the Quiet Spirit Court immediately..."
"..."
Namikaze Minato’s expression grew slightly eccentric.
What kind of trick is this boss up to again?
Isn’t it you who orchestrated the assassination event, ordering these officers to come to the Mortal World, finding ways to delay time, waiting for Aizen Sousuke and Urahara Kisuke to start fighting?
How come this guy’s acting like his old self again!
Clearly, everything happening now is guided by him, and he’s pretending to look all kind and innocent...
