#165 - Infernal Affairs! Exposed Ichimaru Gin, Aizen's sincerity!
During this time, Kisuke Urahara had already sensed that Ichigo Kurosaki possessed a strong desire for power, but in his opinion, it wasn't enough.
Unlike when he suffered blows from Byakuya Kuchiki and others, even losing his Zanpakuto, experiencing unprecedented setbacks, Ichigo Kurosaki's inner determination to save Rukia Kuchiki was incredibly strong.
Now, Ichigo Kurosaki's desire for power was, at most, driven by the thought of wanting to help Rukia Kuchiki.
But now, after learning that Rukia Kuchiki had actually willingly walked into a trap, Ichigo Kurosaki's mentality completely changed.
And this was exactly what Kisuke Urahara wanted.
The power of a Soul Reaper, although strongly related to aptitude and the essence of the soul,
the best way to unlock this power is through an extremely strong obsession and inner drive.
Ichigo Kurosaki's previous performance might have been sufficient for ordinary Soul Reapers.
But for Kisuke Urahara, who knew Ichigo Kurosaki's background, it was far from enough.
Ichigo Kurosaki needed to tap into his potential with a stronger obsession, to gain enough power to help the Seireitei in the shortest amount of time.
Sure enough, after learning about Rukia Kuchiki's situation, Ichigo Kurosaki decisively chose to risk his life.
As expected of someone who simultaneously possesses the powers of a Soul Reaper, a Hollow, and a Quincy.
When his obsession reached a certain level, the speed of Ichigo Kurosaki's growth even amazed Kisuke Urahara.
Meanwhile, after detonating the Vandenreich, Luo Fu directly hid in Hueco Mundo.
He waited until the Seireitei and the Vandenreich engaged in a fierce battle before silently infiltrating the Seireitei and observing the bloody battle between the Thirteen Court Guard Squads and the Stern Ritter.
And during this time, the Arrancar, Inoue Hao, whom Luo Fu had left in Hueco Mundo, also brought Luo Fu an unexpected surprise.
While Inoue Hao was slaughtering Menos Grande and constantly increasing his strength, he unexpectedly encountered Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck, whom Luo Fu had been unable to find before.
for Luo Fu, the most crucial issue at hand was to further provoke the war between the Vandenreich and the Seireitei.
What Luo Fu didn't expect was that while he was fanning the flames and provoking the conflict between the Vandenreich and the Seireitei,
a strange yet somewhat familiar spiritual pressure suddenly came from the Human World to the Seireitei.
In just an instant, Luo Fu had already determined that this suddenly appearing weak spiritual pressure was none other than Rukia Kuchiki's.
In a flash of thought, Luo Fu vaguely guessed Kisuke Urahara's plan.
If he wasn't mistaken, Kisuke Urahara was now planning to boost Aizen's strength, with the goal of targeting himself.
After all, Luo Fu knew that since the last confrontation with Kisuke Urahara, there was absolutely no possibility of reconciliation between them.
Luo Fu had personally severed one of Kisuke Urahara's arms, especially since Luo Fu knew that his abilities were not so easily recovered.
In other words, Kisuke Urahara would forever be a one-armed man.
Such hatred, coupled with Kisuke Urahara's previous vigilance towards Luo Fu, made Luo Fu increasingly understand what Kisuke Urahara was planning.
If Luo Fu hadn't exposed the existence of the Vandenreich hidden in the shadows of the Seireitei, then perhaps, in Kisuke Urahara's mind, he and Aizen would have been cleaned up by the Seireitei like sweeping away grass to startle rabbits.
But with the sudden outbreak of the Vandenreich, a threat to the Seireitei, Kisuke Urahara naturally had to play a game of alliances.
Finding a suitable opponent for himself and Aizen, so that they would at least be unable to target the Seireitei before the Seireitei resolved the Vandenreich, was the only choice.
After discerning Kisuke Urahara's thoughts, Luo Fu glanced meaningfully in the direction of the Fifth Division. If he wasn't mistaken, Aizen must have already realized that the half of the Hogyoku he had been searching for so many years had been actively sent to the Seireitei.
However, it was still unknown whether this half of the Hogyoku could fall into Aizen's hands.
Luo Fu's figure drifted away from the Soul Society, and in the next moment, he had appeared in a desolate Hueco Mundo.
In Hueco Mundo, after casually sensing the fluctuations of the surrounding spiritual pressure, Luo Fu locked onto Inoue Hao's location.
When Luo Fu arrived at Inoue Hao's side, Inoue Hao was being besieged by a large group of Hollows.
Outside the battle circle, a small loli with green hair and half a bone mask on her head was watching Inoue Hao in amazement.
Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck.
The former Tercera Espada in Las Noches, built by Aizen.
Unfortunately, because the order of Las Noches had not yet been truly established, Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck, although nominally the Tercera Espada, was ambushed by a lower-ranking Espada.
Not only was her strength greatly damaged and seriously injured, but even her consciousness was reduced to that of a little girl.
Seeing Luo Fu appear, Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck was immediately startled.
And the two Fracciónes who stayed by her side, not leaving for a moment, also instantly showed strong vigilance towards Luo Fu.
Luo Fu's purpose in returning to Hueco Mundo this time was not for Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck. Kisuke Urahara had already made his move, and Luo Fu would of course give him a big surprise.
Perhaps sensing Luo Fu's appearance,
Inoue Hao, in the midst of the battle, suddenly unleashed a much sharper attack than before.
In just a blink of an eye, after beheading all the Hollows surrounding him,
Inoue Hao flashed and disappeared from the spot.
When he appeared in front of Luo Fu, Inoue Hao knelt on one knee and said, "Master."
Nodding slightly, Luo Fu said, "Inoue Hao, I have a mission for you."
"Please give your orders, Master."
"You go to the Human World immediately and tell your sister and Tatsuki Arisawa to join forces with Uryū Ishida and Yasutora Sado. Go to Urahara's shop together to help a classmate."
A meaningful glint flashed in Luo Fu's eyes.
How could Ichigo Kurosaki complete the mission to save Rukia Kuchiki alone? Of course, he had to arrange some helpers for Ichigo Kurosaki.
And more importantly, Luo Fu was also very interested in the half of the Hogyoku that originally belonged to Kisuke Urahara.
Not only the half in Kisuke Urahara's hands, but even the half in Aizen's hands, Luo Fu was determined to get.
However, to obtain the complete Hogyoku, it still required long-term planning.
Inoue Hao didn't know who the so-called classmate of his sister was, but he wisely chose not to ask.
Luo Fu had already explained things so simply and clearly.
Go to the Human World to find his sister, Orihime Inoue, and have Orihime Inoue join forces with Tatsuki Arisawa, bring Uryū Ishida and Yasutora Sado, and the destination was the classmate inside Urahara's shop.
After learning this information, if he continued to ask Luo Fu questions, it would show that he was too incompetent.
Watching Inoue Hao leave Hueco Mundo through a Garganta, Luo Fu's gaze quickly fell on the green-haired loli beside him, Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck.
While Luo Fu was bewitching Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck.
Having arrived in the Human World, Inoue Hao casually concealed his not-so-obvious Hollow appearance and headed straight for the Inoue residence.
Although Orihime Inoue was a natural airhead, it must be admitted that she carried out her brother's instructions with almost no discount.
Some things, Orihime Inoue couldn't understand, but Tatsuki Arisawa was there to help.
Uryū Ishida and Yasutora Sado were originally Ichigo Kurosaki's friends, and in addition, Ichigo Kurosaki and Uryū Ishida had previously understood each other's methods.
Upon learning that Ichigo Kurosaki needed help, these people almost unhesitatingly agreed to stay.
Soon, the original Ryoka team, under Luo Fu's secret promotion, gathered in Urahara's shop, and even had an additional Tatsuki Arisawa.
After experiencing the initial surprise, Ichigo Kurosaki quickly accepted that Tatsuki Arisawa and Orihime Inoue had both mastered superhuman abilities.
However, Ichigo Kurosaki didn't think so much. But Kisuke Urahara keenly realized that there must be other reasons behind the arrival of Ichigo Kurosaki's classmates, and the biggest possibility was that Luo Fu, who had completely transformed himself into a humanoid Hogyoku.
Although he guessed it, Kisuke Urahara was happy to see it happen.
Because Luo Fu's performance clearly made people feel that his goal was also placed on the half of the Hogyoku that he created.
In this case, the Hogyoku was clearly able to achieve the goal of killing three birds with one stone.
At most, he would lose the Hogyoku, but Luo Fu and Aizen would therefore be unable to target the Seireitei.
As for the future, who will be stronger, Luofu or Aizen, and what kind of trouble will it bring to Seireitei? Regarding this point, Kisuke Urahara is confident that by then, after the Gotei 13, having eliminated the Wandenreich, and having experienced such a tragic bloody battle, their strength will definitely surpass the present.
And Aizen and Luofu, who have exposed their true colors, are at best just minor ailments, not even comparable to the threat posed by the Wandenreich now.
As expected of the protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki possesses the powers of a Soul Reaper, a Hollow, and a Quincy simultaneously. After braving the danger of completely Hollowfying himself and successfully overcoming the greatest difficulty, Ichigo Kurosaki and the others finally, under Kisuke Urahara's arrangement, successfully passed through the Garganta and headed to the Soul Society.
The Garganta is the most convenient route in this world to traverse the Hueco Mundo, Soul Society, and the Human World.
But because of this, both Hollows and Soul Reapers choose the same method when crossing realms.
It's just that, compared to Hollows, Soul Reapers rely more on various developed technological abilities, while Hollows rely on their own abilities.
Some Great Hollows can even master a defensive ability akin to absolute defense, the Anti-Escudo, a defense that even Captain Commander Genryusai Yamamoto cannot break through in a short time.
In terms of defense alone, it is even more terrifying than the Seireitei's barrier.
Inside Seireitei.
Due to the sudden appearance of the Wandenreich, the Gotei 13 has suffered heavy casualties.
However, although the Gotei 13 has indeed suffered great losses due to the appearance of the Wandenreich, the Wandenreich is not having an easy time either.
Under the desperate resistance of the Soul Reapers of Seireitei, they not only dug out the Wandenreich's headquarters hidden in the shadows of Seireitei, but even reached a stalemate with Seireitei in a short period of time.
They are divided by shadows.
Outside the shadows is the territory of the heavily guarded Gotei 13 of Seireitei, while inside the shadows is the domain of the Wandenreich.
The entire Seireitei has been evenly divided.
After temporarily curbing the Wandenreich's aggressive and thunderous offensive.
Seireitei, in addition to the war, has launched a trial against Rukia Kuchiki, a Soul Reaper who violated the rules of Seireitei.
"Captain Aizen." After coming out of the First Division headquarters, Gin Ichimaru, who was almost inseparable from Aizen, said with a somewhat conflicted expression: "The thing you want seems to be in Rukia Kuchiki's body. Are we just going to watch her be judged without doing anything?"
"Gin." Aizen glanced meaningfully in the direction of the prison where Rukia Kuchiki was being held and said, "The more we want to get something, the more we must be calm and collected. Moreover, don't you think Rukia Kuchiki's matter is a bit unusual?"
Gin Ichimaru narrowed his eyes and said, "Does Captain Aizen mean that Rukia Kuchiki's crime should not be pronounced at this time?"
Glancing at Gin Ichimaru, Aizen said, "If it was before, when the Wandenreich had not been contained, then Rukia Kuchiki's matter should of course be put aside. But now, it is the right time to judge Rukia Kuchiki."
After a pause, Aizen continued, "What I'm saying is, why did Rukia Kuchiki throw herself into the net? Moreover, she even brought the Hogyoku back."
"Do you mean…" Gin Ichimaru asked knowingly, "Rukia Kuchiki's matter is a scheme against you?"
"Perhaps." Aizen was noncommittal, then changed the subject and said, "Gin, what is the situation in Hueco Mundo?"
Clearly, Aizen and Gin Ichimaru were discussing topics that were enough to make them traitors of Seireitei, but every Soul Reaper who passed by seemed to not hear their voices at all.
Such an eerie thing made Gin Ichimaru couldn't help but say, "Captain Aizen's Zanpakuto is indeed very powerful."
"Gin, you haven't answered my question!" Aizen, holding his Zanpakuto in one hand, glanced at Gin Ichimaru and reminded him.
"Ara ara!" Gin Ichimaru said lazily, "Just as Captain Aizen guessed, there is indeed a problem in Hueco Mundo. If there are no accidents, it must be that Sixth Seat of the Fourth Division who did it."
"Killing two birds with one stone?" Aizen seemed to instantly discern Kisuke Urahara's plan.
Pausing slightly, Aizen said, "Gin, I want you to personally go to Hueco Mundo to meet this former Sixth Seat of the Fourth Division."
Gin Ichimaru was stunned, with a look of confusion on his face.
He asked in confusion, "Captain Aizen, that Luofu is so terrifying. You want me to go to Hueco Mundo to meet him. Do you want to win him over and recruit him?"
Aizen shook his head and said, "He was able to hide in the Fourth Division for so long. Although I don't know what caused him to finally be exposed, this kind of person will definitely not easily choose to be subordinate to others. I want you to go and meet him because I hope you can communicate with him. Perhaps we can have a collaboration with him."
"Collaboration?" Gin Ichimaru looked puzzled.
"That's right, collaboration. I believe Luofu is also coveting the power of the Hogyoku. But regardless of whether it is him or us, the real primary enemies are not each other, but Seireitei and the suddenly emerging Wandenreich. Before completely eliminating these two threats, I can choose to share the Hogyoku with him."
"What if he doesn't agree?" Gin Ichimaru said with a troubled expression.
"No, he will agree!" Aizen looked confident.
He believed that the power of the Hogyoku was enough to make anyone's heart flutter, and Luofu was no exception.
Although he didn't approve of Aizen's idea in his heart, Gin Ichimaru, after clarifying Aizen's bottom line.
Still accepted the task.
The reason why Gin Ichimaru followed Aizen with such apparent loyalty was because his real purpose was to retrieve Matsumoto Rangiku's soul from Aizen.
Back then, in order to create the Hogyoku, Aizen conducted experiments on countless souls in the Rukon District, and Matsumoto Rangiku's soul was among them.
Before he had sufficient confidence to completely restore Matsumoto Rangiku, Gin Ichimaru could not expose himself.
With a Zanpakuto like Kyoka Suigetsu that could manipulate the five senses, Gin Ichimaru did not have to worry about being exposed when going to Hueco Mundo under such heavily guarded circumstances in Seireitei.
Before, Gin Ichimaru had been to Hueco Mundo countless times following Aizen.
And this time, relying on the embryonic team of the future Las Noches, Gin Ichimaru quickly locked onto Luofu's direction.
When Gin Ichimaru finally followed Aizen's instructions and found Luofu.
Next to Luofu was a figure that Gin Ichimaru was extremely familiar with.
Neliel Tu Oderschvank.
This was the former Tres Espada that Aizen had appointed.
How could Gin Ichimaru mistake her?
Although Neliel Tu Oderschvank at this moment was in the form of a small child, the most reliable evidence for judging the other party's identity, whether it was a Soul Reaper or a Hollow, was definitely not just a simple appearance, but the spiritual particle fluctuation.
"Luofu-san, it's been a long time. I didn't expect that you, the Sixth Seat of the Fourth Division, would betray the Soul Society so resolutely." Gin Ichimaru, seeing Luofu from afar, naturally raised his hand and greeted him.
"So it's Captain Gin Ichimaru." Luofu's eyes flashed, and he quickly guessed that Gin Ichimaru's appearance in the Soul Society at this time, and his clear intention to find him, must be following Aizen's instructions.
It seemed that Kisuke Urahara's plan had also been guessed by Aizen.
Unfortunately, Kisuke Urahara did not use a conspiracy that would completely lose its effect once exposed, but a straightforward strategy.
The biggest difference between a conspiracy and a strategy is that the former, once discovered, even if it is not a complete failure, loses the effect of the plan, but a strategy is different.
As long as Aizen and Luofu are still interested in the Hogyoku, then they can only choose to jump into the pit dug by Kisuke Urahara.
Obviously, Aizen was not the kind of person who would be easily led by the nose.
After guessing Gin Ichimaru's purpose, Luofu got straight to the point and said, "Captain Gin Ichimaru, I wonder what Captain Aizen's instructions are, that he actually asked you to make a trip at this time. Aren't you worried about arousing the suspicion of Seireitei? You must know that the strength of that Captain Commander Yamamoto is simply as strong as a monster."
A fleeting gleam flashed in the depths of his narrow eyes, and Gin Ichimaru smiled and said, "It seems that everyone has underestimated you, Luofu-san! Since you have already guessed my intention, then I wonder what your answer is?"
"First, tell me your purpose." Luofu did not rush to respond.
"Alright, alright." Gin Ichimaru shrugged and said, "Captain Aizen has already guessed that your purpose is the Hogyoku. But now, with the appearance of Seireitei and the Wandenreich, once you and Captain Aizen fall into conflict over the Hogyoku, it will instead give Seireitei and the Wandenreich an opportunity. I believe you should be very clear about the strength of the Wandenreich and the foundation of Seireitei."
"Then what does Captain Aizen mean?"
"Before eliminating Seireitei and the Wandenreich, Captain Aizen hopes to share the power of the Hogyoku with you."
"What if we eliminate the Wandenreich and Seireitei?"
This time, Gin Ichimaru did not answer, but only chuckled softly.
Luo Fu then nodded.
Aizen's proposal was just a temporary measure for him and Luo Fu.
Once the problems of the Seireitei and the Wandenreich are resolved, then of course, it will be every man for himself. After all, such a wonderful existence as the Hōgyoku, whether it is a Soul Reaper or a Hollow, as long as they are not slacking off, they will not allow others to share it.
While Gin Ichimaru was waiting for Luo Fu's response.
Luo Fu suddenly changed the subject and said, "If I remember correctly, Captain Aizen seems to have half a Hōgyoku in his hand, right? I wonder if the half a Hōgyoku in Captain Aizen's hand is the same as Kisuke Urahara's, and can be shared?"
Suddenly pausing, Luo Fu seemed to realize something and slapped his forehead, saying, "Oh right, right! I remember now, it seems that the half a Hōgyoku in Captain Aizen's hand was created using the soul of Captain Gin Ichimaru's childhood friend, Rangiku Matsumoto."
A wisp of killing intent instantly erupted from Gin Ichimaru's body.
Gin Ichimaru was certain that Luo Fu's sudden mention of the origin of Aizen's half a Hōgyoku was definitely not without purpose.
The only explanation was that this guy, whose scheming was even deeper than Aizen's, and who had been hiding in the Seireitei for who knows how long, had already guessed his purpose in joining Aizen.
For so long, Gin Ichimaru had never found a way to solve the problem of Rangiku Matsumoto's missing soul.
In this situation, no matter what, Gin Ichimaru would not accept the possibility of his efforts being in vain.
With murderous intent revealed in his eyes, he drew his Zanpakuto like lightning, and Gin Ichimaru said coldly, "Shoot to kill, Shinso."
A streak of light suddenly extended from the blade of Gin Ichimaru's Zanpakuto.
It rushed towards Luo Fu, with a speed that caught people off guard.
Against ordinary Hollows and ordinary Soul Reapers, Gin Ichimaru's Shinso was indeed invincible, but against Luo Fu, the Shikai state alone was obviously not enough.
With just a slight sideways movement, Luo Fu avoided Shinso's attack.
Gin Ichimaru's Bankai, at the moment Luo Fu dodged the Shikai attack, as the Shinso's blade retracted, unleashed a dense white light attack on Luo Fu once again.
Buto Renjin.
A derived technique under the Bankai of the Zanpakuto Shinso.
By constantly extending and retracting the blade in a very short period of time, it is a technique that instantly crushes the enemy into powder.
What's even more terrifying is that with each extension and retraction of Shinso, a portion of the blade decomposes and enters the enemy's body. These decomposed blades, like terrifying poison, are enough to dissolve even the body of a Captain-level Soul Reaper.
Faced with the overwhelming, sweeping blades.
Luo Fu also dared not be careless this time.
His figure飘然飘然became illusory.
The terrifying Shinso blades went in and out, back and forth, through Luo Fu's body.
Even consuming most of his spiritual particles, in order to kill Luo Fu and silence him in the shortest possible time, Gin Ichimaru breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stopped Shinso's attack.
However, when he saw that Luo Fu was unscathed.
Gin Ichimaru's squinting eyes widened for the first time.
He was sure that his Shinso just now, Buto Renjin, had precisely pierced through Luo Fu's body with every blade, with no possibility of missing.
But yet, Luo Fu was completely unharmed.
"Ara ara, I originally thought I had overestimated Luo Fu-san as much as possible, but now it seems that not only me, but everyone else has probably underestimated Luo Fu-san a little!" Gin Ichimaru sighed in his heart.
Knowing that his plan to kill Luo Fu and silence him was no longer possible.
"Captain Gin Ichimaru is really decisive." Luo Fu would not easily believe Gin Ichimaru's words.
In fact, when Gin Ichimaru first attacked him with Shinso, Luo Fu had already hidden himself firmly in the Kamui dimension.
Even now, although Gin Ichimaru had clearly given up attacking, Luo Fu still did not move his real body out of the Kamui dimension.
Although Luo Fu had enough understanding of the abilities of Soul Reapers and Zanpakuto based on his memories from his previous life.
But this is a real world after all, and neither Soul Reapers nor Hollows can be exactly the same as he knew them in his previous life.
And in battle, even the slightest negligence towards the enemy can lead to irreversible consequences.
So how could Luo Fu risk his life in this situation?
He is not being cowardly, but cautious.
"I just wanted to test whether you have the qualifications to cooperate with me." Gin Ichimaru said with a smile.
Luo Fu, however, refused to let it go and said, "Captain Gin Ichimaru, do you mean your cooperation with me, or Captain Aizen's?"
The smile on his face stiffened slightly, Gin Ichimaru said, "Luo Fu-san, since you have already guessed my purpose, then there is no need for us to continue testing each other. I just want to get back Rangiku's soul. As for you and Captain Aizen, I don't intend to participate in it. Whether it is you or Captain Aizen, whoever can make me feel that Rangiku's soul can be restored, I will stand on that side."
"Captain Gin Ichimaru, aren't you afraid that I will expose you to Captain Aizen?"
"I think Captain Aizen will not easily believe your words!" Gin Ichimaru said confidently.
Smiling noncommittally, Luo Fu did not continue to dwell on this issue, but changed the subject and said, "Captain Gin Ichimaru, do you think I should agree to Captain Aizen's cooperation request?"
"I think you should agree." Gin Ichimaru said as a matter of course, "Captain Aizen is not such a simple existence, and regardless of whether you and Captain Aizen cooperate or not, you will eventually move towards rupture and hostility. After all, the Hōgyoku is not just the half in Kisuke Urahara's hands!"
"It seems that Captain Gin Ichimaru had already thought about cooperating with me before going to Hueco Mundo." Luo Fu laughed and said, "I can agree to cooperate with Captain Aizen, but Captain Aizen always has to show a little sincerity, right?"
"Half of Hueco Mundo!" Gin Ichimaru said, "Captain Aizen will give up half of Hueco Mundo as sincerity."
"Is this considered sincerity?" Luo Fu smiled faintly and said, "The so-called sincerity is actually something I obtained myself. Shouldn't Captain Aizen take the initiative to show it?"
"The Hueco Mundo that Captain Aizen is giving up is where the true essence of Hueco Mundo lies, and the garrison of the Hueco Mundo Expeditionary Force and a part of the Great Hollow Forest will be taken over by Captain Aizen. This means that you don't need to worry about being conquered by the Hueco Mundo Expeditionary Force in Hueco Mundo. Even if you have to face a battle with the Seireitei one day, Captain Aizen will stand in front of you. Isn't that enough?"
"The strong in Hueco Mundo have already been plundered by Captain Aizen."
Gin Ichimaru gave Luo Fu a meaningful look, and at the same time, he couldn't help but admire Captain Aizen's foresight in the depths of his heart.
Yes!
Although Gin Ichimaru joined Aizen with ulterior motives, after being in contact with Aizen for so long, Gin Ichimaru also fully felt Aizen's wisdom and boldness.
If it weren't for the fact that Aizen had taken part of Rangiku Matsumoto's soul to create the Hōgyoku in the first place, then Gin Ichimaru would have really wanted to completely join Aizen.
Before leaving the Seireitei, Aizen seemed to have anticipated that Luo Fu would make such a request.
He even gave Gin Ichimaru a list.
"Captain Aizen has already made arrangements. You can choose any five of the Espada in Hueco Mundo. Now that you already have the Thirtieth Espada by your side, then you can also pick five people from Hueco Mundo. Not only Hollows, but among the Soul Reapers, Captain Aizen can also give you his lieutenant, Momo Hinamori. In addition, within the Gotei 13, you can choose any four quota below the captain level, and Captain Aizen will give them to you."
Speaking of this, Gin Ichimaru couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Aizen is investing so heavily, not only giving Luo Fu five Espada, but even giving Luo Fu five places among the Soul Reapers. In Gin Ichimaru's eyes, Aizen is clearly treating Luo Fu as the same kind as Aizen, who is trying to break the boundaries between Soul Reapers and Hollows and pursue the highest realm.
"What a big investment." Luo Fu sighed faintly, "Five Arrancar, five Soul Reapers, Captain Aizen is sure that I have designs on the Hōgyoku."
The deal proposed by Aizen may seem unbelievable to others, but Luo Fu knows that in Aizen's eyes, whether it is a Soul Reaper or an Arrancar, they are just chips for him to pursue a higher realm.
If it can bring him greater benefits, he doesn't mind exchanging the chips with Luo Fu.
