Chapter 9 Rukongai Hollow Incident
“Yecheng, this is Shiba Haiyan, the deputy captain of our Thirteenth Division.
Haiyan is a kind-hearted and loyal man who is admired and respected by many team members. If you don’t understand something, just ask him. "
Ukitake was originally a deadbeat due to his frail health. If it hadn't been for this unexpected situation, he would have been a loser.
An ordinary captain would not say so many things to a mere newcomer, but Ukitake has the character of a good old man, and Ye Cheng is also one of the victims this time, so he will be given special care.
Now that Shiba Haiyan is here to take over, Ukitake can't wait to run back to his team building to rest.
“Don’t worry about whether the captain has any objections to you or anything. Because of his physical condition, Captain Ukitake rarely manages the captain’s important tasks. As subordinates, we are always handling it.
My name is Shiba Haiyan. In fact, I was recently promoted to the vice-captain of the 13th division. Before that, I was only in the third position. Please give me your advice. "
"No, I have to ask Vice Captain Zhibo for advice. I'm the new guy who just joined the team today, Nanyecheng."
This is the first time Ye Cheng and Shiba Haiyan meet, and it is also the first time that Ye Cheng understands the tragic character of Shiba Haiyan.
---Dividing line
Time passed by in a hurry. Two years after becoming a member of the 13th Division in Night City, Ukitake Jushiro, the captain of the 13th Division, once again had to leave his retirement resort due to an urgent captain meeting and went to a place again. Team meeting.
“Yecheng, why do you think the captain convened the captain’s meeting in a hurry?”
The person who stood next to Ye Cheng and asked was Shiba Haiyan, the deputy captain of the 13th Division. Two years later, Ye Cheng and Shiba Haiyan established a pretty good friendship.
Shiba Haiyan was originally one of the five nobles in the Soul Society and the contemporary head of the Shiba family, but it was just because of the decline of the family.
There is not much description of Shiba Haiyan in the original plot, but after two years of contact, Ye Cheng discovered that there is a reason why the octopus-headed Rukia admires Haiyan so much.
Shiba Haiyan, who was born into a noble family, could treat every member of his team without distinction regardless of their status or status. Because of his fair attitude, both the team members from noble families and those from Rukongai are very fond of him.
Moreover, Haiyan is also a genius. She completed the six-year course at Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy in just one year.
At the beginning, he entered the current 13th Division as a third-ranked member. After that, he was promoted to the vice-captain in just five years.
No matter how you look at it, with Haiyan’s talent, connections and personality, it is almost certain that she will take over the position of captain of Ukitake’s 13th Division in a few decades.
In the past two years, Haiyan, with her powers of observation that is stronger than ordinary people, also discovered the special features of Night City.
Out of concern for the newcomers, Haiyan initially planned to provide intensive training to Ye Cheng, but during the sparring exercises, he discovered Ye Cheng’s hidden true strength.
After learning about Ye Cheng's consideration, Haiyan did not laugh at Ye Cheng's unfounded worries or persecution paranoia like Ikkaku and Yumichika did, but smiled to show her understanding. Soul Society may appear to be calm on the surface, but in fact it is full of undercurrents. Haiyan, who was once one of the five nobles, knows this best.
And he also believes that it is not a bad thing to be cautious. In the past, his wife Zhibo was killed by Xu because of his carelessness. (PS: I see that many people are confused. It’s not that they haven’t read the original plot. The reason why Haiyan’s wife arranged for her to die early is because I want her to be resurrected later.)
Over the years, Haiyan has always felt that there was something fishy about his wife's death. Logically speaking, his wife was the third member of the team, and the elite Shinigami who had mastered the Hakkai, how could she be killed by the subordinate Xu who appeared in Rukongai? It's an incredible thing in itself.
“I received some gossip that a large number of soul disintegration events suddenly occurred in Rukongai. The captain of the ninth team, Captain Rokusha Kensai, and the deputy team, Nagasaki Nanbai, went to investigate, but it seemed that something unexpected happened.
The captain and deputy captain are already the top combat power of Jinglingting. Now that a situation has arisen, the captain naturally convened a captain meeting. It is estimated that the number of captains sent to investigate this time will be even more. "
Haiyan is not surprised by the gossip that Yacheng received. Yacheng, who was born in Rukongai, seems to be quite well-connected in a place like Rukongai where everyone is mixed.
Furthermore, in the battle of the Gotei 13, Yashiro's popularity was also very good. His Haiyan's popularity was only good in the Thirteenth Division, but Yashiro's popularity was quite popular among the Gotei 13.
This is not something difficult to understand. Ye Cheng is a time traveler after all. Although he has not discovered his cheat yet, he knows the plot and has an understanding of the characters in these worlds. As long as he likes them, It is not difficult to build good relationships with people.
“Rukongai’s collective collapse? Isn’t this related to the matter I asked you to help me investigate!”
Haiyan's expression suddenly became serious when she heard that Rukongai had experienced a collective blur. It was not unusual for the souls of Rukongai to occasionally become blurred.
But generally, the Hollows that appear in Rukongai are just lower-level Hollows. It's okay to bully a newcomer who just graduated from the Shingon Spiritual Academy, but killing his wife, who is the third seat, and now even the captain and deputy captain of the ninth team If they are all missing, then the situation is obviously abnormal.
“Probably not..., after all, the time between these two events is quite long.”
Hearing Haiyan's guess, Ye Cheng couldn't help but admire the other party's keen intuition. He wanted to say that he was right. These two things were actually caused by a hairspray boss behind the scenes.
Whether it’s the captain and vice-captain of Division 9, or Shiba Haiyan’s wife, they are all victims of BOSS Aizen Sosuke’s experiment.
But now he can't reveal his broken promise because he can't explain it clearly. If he says these secret words, he might be the one who is imprisoned by the criminal army for investigation.
Moreover, although Haiyan's current strength is good, going to Rukongai now is a dead end.
For this so-called captain meeting, even if Ye Cheng was not present, he knew that the captain would send the captain of the third division, Rojuro, the captain of the fifth division, Mako Hirako, the seventh division's Ratake Aikawa, and the eighth division's deputy captain. Yatomaru Lisa, Hiyori of the 12th division, and Akida Hakigen, the deputy ghost master of the ghosts, formed a special operations team to investigate.
There is no doubt that even this captain-level combat force will eventually be thrown into the street in front of Aizen's Zanpakutō "Kyōka Suigetsu" and become a test subject of its Death God Hollow.
With so many captains and vice-captains on the streets, Ye Cheng didn’t think that adding Haiyan as a vice-captain could change the outcome, so he naturally tried to dissuade the other party from going to Rukongai to die.
