Free Web NovelChapter 827: Chapter 647: The Truth of the Past—Urahara Kisuke’s Deception of the Uehara Race
Mokumoku Town.
The entire Masked Legion looked serious.
Before encountering Senju Tobirama, they had always believed that the only person who framed them was Aizen Sousuke. Now, Senju Tobirama has unveiled another layer of mystery for them...
Back then, they had the chance to escape Hollowfication...
Yet someone else rejected that opportunity on their behalf!
A hint of surprise flashed in Hirako Shinji’s eyes, but he immediately chuckled and retorted, "Ha... Who knows if what you’re saying is true or false..."
Among those present, Hirako Shinji was the calmest.
Regardless of whether what Senju Tobirama said was true or false, this Masked Legion could never return to the past. Now, Senju Tobirama, the fifth seat officer, is their enemy!
If they were to let the enemy’s words stir their minds at this moment...
It seems...
It doesn’t matter, right?
From the looks of the situation, they are not a match for the Senju brothers. Delaying for a while might not be a bad thing for them.
"Let’s stop discussing whether we were actively or passively Hollowfied..."
Hirako Shinji chuckled and asked, "So could Mr. Senju Tobirama enlighten us on anything else we didn’t know back then?"
"Hmph..."
Senju Tobirama crossed his arms, glanced at Urahara Kisuke in the distance, and continued coldly, "Does it even matter talking about this now?"
"Of course..."
Hirako Shinji followed Tobirama’s gaze towards Urahara Kisuke’s direction, turned back and grinned, "Sometimes we do regret... If only we knew that Mr. Senju Tobirama could actually strip the Hollow power away from us..."
Though somewhat unwilling to believe...
Hirako Shinji vaguely guessed a few candidates.
There are very few people in this world who can converse with the Uehara Race, besides Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni, we don’t know if Urahara Kisuke, who saved us back then, counts as one...
However, the truth is far from simple.
Or rather, this matter is not as easy as Senju Tobirama makes it sound, because it involves the recruitment issues of the Akatsuki.
If there were no mistakes in the past...
Originally, Urahara Kisuke might have joined the Akatsuki.
Decades ago.
The incident of Hirako Shinji and others’ Hollowfication erupted.
Original Squad 12 Captain Urahara Kisuke defied the order of his teacher, Yakushi Kabuto, and recklessly went to rescue Hirako Shinji and the others with the former Kido Troops Commander, Captain of the Kido Corps Tsukabishi Tessai.
When Hirako Shinji and the others lost their will and consciousness, becoming Hollow creatures, Urahara Kisuke and Tsukabishi Tessai rescued them to the Research and Development Institute but were helpless against their Hollowfication...
Decades ago in the Research and Development Institute.
Urahara Kisuke rubbed his hair, surrounded by research materials on Shinigami Hollowfication, pondering how to separate Hirako Shinji and the others from Hollowfication...
Unfortunately, it’s not a quick fix.
At the most critical moment, Senju Tobirama appeared before Urahara Kisuke.
This fifth officer of the Uehara Race showed up at the Research and Development Institute, actively curbing Hirako Shinji and the others’ Hollowfication. This technique made Urahara Kisuke see hope and subconsciously believe that the Uehara Race might have also conducted Shinigami Hollowfication!
Senju Tobirama did not deny this. To break through the limitations, one must go down roads unimaginable to ordinary people, and releasing a Shinigami’s limitations while retaining consciousness during Hollowfication is also a way to become stronger.
Similarly.
Senju Tobirama claims he can help solve Hirako Shinji and the others’ uncontrollable Hollowfication, saving these elite captains of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads...
Of course.
This is a transaction.
Since it’s a transaction, a price must be paid.
Senju Tobirama wasn’t aiming to ease the relations between the Uehara Race and the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads; he merely made a demand to Urahara Kisuke: "As long as you’re willing to join the Uehara Race, I can help you solve these people’s Hollowfication right now..."
"Hmm? Let me join... the Uehara Race?"
A hint of astonishment flashed across Urahara Kisuke’s face. Even he hadn’t expected that Senju Tobirama would invite him to join the Uehara Race?
Wait...
No, that makes perfect sense!
Because Urahara Kisuke himself is Yakushi Kabuto’s disciple! freёwebnoѵel.com
This was asking Urahara Kisuke whether he was willing to betray his mentor Yakushi Kabuto!
Truth be told, if it weren’t for the label of Yakushi Kabuto on him, Urahara Kisuke wouldn’t mind having some affiliation with the Uehara Race. Who in the Soul Society doesn’t know about the excellent benefits for Shinigami in the Uehara Race?
Senju Tobirama seemed confident as he continued to recruit Urahara Kisuke: "If you’re willing to join the Uehara Race, I can even abolish a Deadguard and let you replace them as a new Deadguard Seat Officer, from the eighth seat officer Uchiha Obito to the thirteenth seat officer Rasa; you can choose any position..."
This offer is undeniably generous!
The position of the Thirteen Deadguards is highly revered in the Uehara Race. If Urahara Kisuke agrees, he can immediately rise to a high-ranking position within the Uehara Race!
It truly seems the Uehara Race is earnest...
Of course, if you’re aiming for a transaction, besides offering a carrot, Senju Tobirama didn’t neglect the stick in his hand as well.
"If you don’t agree..."
