Chapter 828: Chapter 647: The Truth of That Year, Urahara Kisuke Who Once Toyed with the Uehara Race (Part 2)
Senju Tobirama glanced at the half-hollowfied Hirako Shinji and the others, then turned to Urahara Kisuke and sneered, "The Shinigami Hollowfication experiment is forbidden in the Quiet Spirit Court... You’re in big trouble, kid..."
"It was Aizen Sousuke who framed them!"
A flash of anger crossed Urahara Kisuke’s face, and just as he was about to say more, a realization struck him!
Why would Aizen Sousuke dare to frame the Masked Shinigami at this moment?
Could Aizen Sousuke have already sided with the Uehara Race?
At this moment, Urahara Kisuke suddenly began to suspect that Aizen Sousuke was colluding with the Uehara Race to frame these Captains of the Shinigami, because having problems arise among the eight captain-level Shinigami of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads would be most beneficial to the Uehara Race!
Urahara Kisuke thought of this possibility, and couldn’t help but be stunned. He took a slow deep breath, calming himself down gradually, and said in a serious tone, "Mr. Tobirama, has Aizen Sousuke also joined the Uehara Race?"
"That vice-captain of the 5th Squad?"
Senju Tobirama frowned a little, speaking with displeasure, "I remember him as someone not very distinctive... Do you think the Uehara Race would just casually recruit others? The Uehara Race doesn’t accept worthless people! Did you just say that Aizen Sousuke framed them?"
"..."
Urahara Kisuke’s brow also furrowed.
On the surface, Aizen Sousuke indeed seemed unremarkable, but behind the scenes, Aizen Sousuke wasn’t that simple. Didn’t the Uehara Race see through Aizen Sousuke’s true nature?
What is going on here?
As Urahara Kisuke was still pondering, Senju Tobirama continued with a threat, "I am not interested in discussing anything else with you. If you don’t join the Uehara Race, just conducting the Shinigami Hollowfication experiment on your own is something the Quiet Spirit Court absolutely cannot tolerate..."
After saying this, Senju Tobirama snorted coldly, "As long as you can join the Uehara Race, I can help you solve all your troubles. I know you have a close relationship with the head of the Shihoin Family, but such a small family can’t help you with these problems..."
"And may I know Mr. Tobirama’s real purpose?"
Urahara Kisuke slowly lifted his head to look at Senju Tobirama, and softly said, "Mr. Tobirama’s purpose... is for Teacher Kabuto, isn’t it?"
Because the Uehara Race and Yakushi Kabuto have long been at odds over the Reanimation Jutsu, their invitation for Urahara to join the Uehara Race must be to target his teacher, Yakushi Kabuto!
This...
Is something Senju Tobirama cannot refute!
In fact, Senju Tobirama did not refute. He gave Urahara Kisuke a deep look and said solemnly, "You’re right... For the entire Uehara Race, nothing is more important than the Reanimation Jutsu, which is the foundation for the Uehara Race to establish itself in the Soul Society."
"..."
Urahara Kisuke slowly fell into contemplation.
If he chooses to accept Senju Tobirama’s proposal and joins the Uehara Race, he can save the elite captains of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads who are about to fall into hollowfication!
These are the elite forces of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads!
They are also strong evidence to prove that Aizen Sousuke is a dark character!
If these captain-level Shinigami are lost in the hollowfication incident, the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads would suffer too great a loss, which would be highly unfavorable to the situation in the entire Soul Society!
Among them is also Urahara’s vice-captain.
The lives of the eight elite Shinigami hang by a thread.
This is a difficult moment.
Urahara Kisuke, sitting in the Research and Development Institute, became increasingly worried: "Mr. Senju Tobirama, can you wait for me to go to Central 46 first, to negotiate with them and the Uehara Race? They will surely offer a handsome price..."
"Hmph, what do you think?"
Senju Tobirama looked displeased at Urahara Kisuke, speaking coldly, "The Uehara Race has proposed numerous transactions to the Quiet Spirit Court and Central 46, including countless powerful Kido Secret Techniques, yet they are still reluctant to give up the chance to balance against the Uehara Race..."
"I see..."
Urahara Kisuke slowly closed his eyes and sat helplessly in his chair: "Mr. Senju Tobirama, why do you think I would be willing to abandon Teacher Kabuto for these people?"
Indeed...
Hirako Shinji and the others are just his colleagues!
Is it really necessary to join the so-called Uehara Race for these people?
Senju Tobirama stood with his arms folded, overlooking Urahara Kisuke sitting in his chair, with a hint of complexity in his voice: "Because we’ve been watching you for a long time, Urahara Kisuke... Now, can you tell me your choice?"
"I understand."
Urahara Kisuke lowered his head, speaking softly: "Mr. Senju Tobirama, I don’t want to go against my teacher... If that’s the case, can we still proceed with our transaction? Does the Uehara Race still wish to recruit me?"
"Very well."
Senju Tobirama gazed at Urahara Kisuke, his expression gradually turning complex, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, "I won’t help them remove the Hollows inside them, just tell you how to suppress hollowfication, and won’t solve any future problems for you... because your value is only so much. Then congratulations on becoming a Shinigami of the Uehara Race."
"Well then... thank you."
Urahara Kisuke finally let out a slow breath.
In order to save Hirako Shinji and the others, he was almost exhausted of energy, and to have someone point him in a direction at this time, he was already very grateful.
Unfortunately...
Urahara Kisuke didn’t realize what he had lost.
That night, Urahara Kisuke used Hollow spiritual particles to create the Hogyoku, allowing Hirako Shinji and the others to successfully overcome the constraints of being Shinigami and gain the ability of Shinigami Hollowfication.
That night, Urahara Kisuke severed his mentor-apprentice relationship with Yakushi Kabuto.
That night, Yakushi Kabuto sat alone in his room, sleepless all night. Urahara Kisuke was a disciple he earnestly wanted to cultivate, yet ultimately did not pass the test of Akatsuki.
Although this test...
Seemed inhumane on the surface.
But appeared very simple.
In reality, as long as Urahara Kisuke could prove his loyalty!
He would have a chance to glimpse the truth of the struggle between Yakushi Kabuto and the Uehara Race, and even saving Hirako Shinji and the others would have been a simple matter...
Unfortunately...
Urahara Kisuke did not pass the test, and to get information from Senju Tobirama that could save lives, he chose to betray Yakushi Kabuto.
If Urahara Kisuke had not interfered in this matter, the Uehara Race would not have stood by idly, but rather helped Hirako Shinji in order to gain maximum benefit...
However, when Urahara intervened...
The Shinigami Hollowfication incident became his test question.
Unfortunately, Urahara Kisuke didn’t pass the test.
After the Shinigami Hollowfication incident, Urahara Kisuke nominally became a member of the Uehara Race, but he never went to Uehara City...
The Uehara Race demanded Urahara Kisuke to abide by orders and hand over his created Hogyoku, which Urahara decisively refused, and severed ties with the Uehara Race!
This guy’s courage is unimaginably great!
Clearly, Urahara was just using the Uehara Race!
After toying with the Uehara Race, Urahara Kisuke went to seek his teacher’s forgiveness, but Yakushi Kabuto chose to ignore him...
From then on, life didn’t go so well for him.
Aizen Sousuke manipulated Central 46 to prosecute Urahara Kisuke and Hirako Shinji and the others for conducting the Shinigami Hollowfication experiment, seeking to sentence them all at once!
The Uehara Race chose to stand by.
Yakushi Kabuto also chose to stand by.
Luckily, Urahara Kisuke still had his former friend Shihoin Yoruichi to help him. With Shihoin Yoruichi’s assistance, they escaped from the Soul Society.
This was not the beginning of Urahara’s good fortune...
As someone who betrayed Yakushi Kabuto and toyed with the Uehara Race, in addition to having offended Aizen Sousuke, who knows how he will end up... freewebnovel.cσ๓
A seed of evil was planted, and what he reaped would surely be a fruit of evil.
Decades later.
Urahara Kisuke would finally be forced to face his own destiny.
