Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Faced with this sudden, wide-area attack, the executioners who were originally planning to execute Rukia had to stop what they were doing and quickly move away using Shunpo. The cherry blossom petals did not chase after them, but gathered back again.
Whoosh.
Kuchiki Byakuya's tall figure appeared in front of Rukia, wearing a white snow-patterned kimono.
"Big brother..." Rukia's face was stunned, and the despair in her eyes turned to shock.
"Kuchiki Byakuya, what do you mean by this?" Yamamoto Genryusai said calmly, leaning on his cane. "As the captain of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, have you forgotten your mission?"
"No," Kuchiki Byakuya said expressionlessly. "So today, I am not here as a captain, but as a big brother, to take my sister away."
"Big brother!" Rukia's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
In her memory, this big brother always maintained a rigid, traditional image, and was always indifferent to her. But today, he is risking so much to save her? Why?
"Ridiculous!" Yamamoto Genryusai shouted angrily, raising his cane. The wooden structure on the surface gradually disappeared, revealing the sword underneath. "Do you think I will just stand by and watch just because you say something like that?"
"Oh my, oh my." At this moment, Kyoraku Shunsui suddenly appeared in front of him, smiling and saying, "Old man Yama is getting old, he can't get this angry."
"That's right, Captain Commander, calm down," Ukitake Jushiro chimed in.
"You two!" Yamamoto Genryusai narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Do you want to stop me?"
"Don't say that."
"We just want to find out the truth."
Shunsui and Jushiro answered one after the other.
"Central 46's judgment is the truth!" Yamamoto Genryusai held the sword hilt with his right hand and said without hesitation, "No one can change that!" He drew his sword, and a bright light flashed from the blade.
Bang.
Shunsui and Jushiro drew their swords at the same time, barely deflecting the force of the sword's light.
"Really, it's still developed into this situation," Jushiro sighed.
"Wasn't this expected?" Shunsui lowered his hat brim and said softly, "Old man Yama, let's go somewhere else." Without waiting for a response, he used Shunpo to leave with Jushiro.
"Hmph!" Yamamoto Genryusai snorted coldly and also used Shunpo to follow.
Things have come to this point. More important than executing Rukia is teaching his unworthy disciples a lesson.
"Captain Commander Yamamoto!" Komamura Sajin, seeing this, also gripped his sword and followed.
With the pressure from the Captain Commander removed, Kuchiki Byakuya was relieved. He raised his hand to free his sister from her bonds.
Whoosh.
A fair and delicate fist suddenly came at him, carrying a whistling wind.
Kuchiki Byakuya dodged sideways, his right hand's fingers slightly spread. A cherry blossom-colored sword quickly formed in his palm. He slashed his sword horizontally to his side.
Clang.
The sword collided with Soi Fon's "Suzumebachi" on her middle finger, sending sparks flying.
"I can't believe it, the famous Kuchiki family head would do something like this," Soi Fon said with a smirk, her face full of mockery. "Has the honor of you great nobles been thrown out the window?"
"Precisely because we are great nobles, we don't need things like honor to uphold our reputation," Byakuya retorted expressionlessly.
"You bastard!" Soi Fon naturally heard that he was mocking her.
Although the Feng family was also a noble family, they were a lower-ranked noble family attached to the Shihoin family. Compared to the Kuchiki family, who were born noble, they needed honor even more to uphold their image.
"Oh my, this is a rare sight," Ichimaru Gin said, scratching his head, looking troubled. "What should we do?"
"Now that things have come to this, let's move the prisoner first," Hitsugaya Toshiro said, relieved, and was about to step forward to take Rukia away.
However, unexpectedly, a thin figure with purple hair blocked his path. It was Aura Michibane.
"So you guys are in on it?" Seeing this, Ichimaru Gin was a little stunned, and his gaze turned to Tokitada Tsunayashiro. "This is really unexpected."
"What do you mean, in on it?" Tsunayashiro Tokitada curved his mouth and slowly drew the sword at his waist. "It's that your Thirteen Court Guard Squads aren't doing their job well and need to be punished." His figure flickered, and the sword in his hand chopped down towards Ichimaru Gin's head.
Clang.
The two blades collided, making a crisp sound.
"That's a terrible crime," Ichimaru Gin said, holding his short sword and smiling with narrowed eyes. "The old men of Central 46, won't they execute us too?"
It was a mess, a complete mess.
Near the execution platform, different soul reaper powers were in chaos. Colorful demon arts and sharp sword lights collided with each other, and booming sounds rose and fell continuously.
Rukia, who was still beside the execution platform, was completely dumbfounded. The scene before her eyes subverted her understanding. These high-ranking captain-level soul reapers were actually fighting a civil war for an adopted daughter of the Kuchiki family?
Isn't this a little too much?
Confusion!
At this time, Rukia Kuchiki was really confused, her heart full of confusion. Until the people who were caught in the fight gradually went away, she still didn't react.
Snap.
Very suddenly, Rukia felt the restraints on her body were released. She raised her head in confusion, and what came into her eyes was a gentle and beautiful face. "Captain Unohana?"
"Sorry, I made you suffer," Unohana Retsu said softly, touching her head.
In Uchiha Madara's plan, Rukia was the most innocent. She suffered a wrong without any cause, and was probably scared enough. But in order to make the plan go smoothly, she could only be wronged and continue to be a tool.
Rukia was stunned, her expression a little at a loss. "Captain Unohana, what exactly is..."
"I see, Captain Unohana is the Kuchiki Captain's real backup plan?" Before she could finish her words, Aizen, who had been holding back, suddenly said, "You really are scheming."
"Oh, Captain Aizen is still pretending to be confused," Unohana Retsu raised her head and turned her gaze to Aizen. "You should be the happiest to see this kind of scene happen, right?"
"Oh? I don't really understand what Captain Unohana means," Aizen said, pushing his glasses, smiling gently. "Could you explain it a little?"
Unohana Retsu's expression was calm, without joy or sorrow. "Do you need me to start from 110 years ago?".
