Chapter 228 - Chapter 228: Saving the Prisoner Begins

Seireitei, White Road Mound.

Like the Twin Peaks Hill in the original Bleach story, this is also a place where the Soul Reapers execute prisoners. But unlike Twin Peaks Hill, this execution ground is clearly more ordinary.

There is no execution rack built with soul-killing stones, nor is there a "Destroyer King" that requires dozens of Kido members to chant together to unseal. Only a few execution army members in black uniforms stand on either side of the oval execution platform.

And standing next to the execution platform, with her hands and feet tied tightly, Kuchiki Rukia's eyes are dull, and her expression is fearful.

She herself doesn't even know what happened. She was inexplicably taken to the Second Division for detention. In this process, she didn't even have time for interrogation before being taken to the execution platform by Captain Unohana of the Fourth Division.

How... could this happen?

Unlike the calmness she had when she was executed in the original story, Rukia's heart is now full of confusion, astonishment, and helplessness.

In the original Bleach story, she did commit the crime of passing on her spiritual power to humans. This caused Kurosaki Ichigo to be drawn into the Soul Reaper conflict, and Rukia felt that she deserved it.

But this time, she clearly didn't do anything. Why was she given the death penalty for no reason? Is there no justice at all in the world of Soul Reapers?

Swish, swish, swish.

Several figures flickered, including Yamamoto Genryusai. A group of Captains arrived around the execution platform.

Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Wow, is it starting?

Doujin Artist: It seems like not everyone is here. Byakuya, Tosen Kaname, Kenpachi Zaraki, and Mayuri Kurotsuchi didn't come?

Soul Society's Villain: The Captains are just observers, it's not mandatory.

Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Kuchiki Byakuya didn't come. Is he preparing to save the prisoner?

This is an Actor: Ah, that's right.

With Uchiha Madara's spiritual sense, he can naturally see that the head of the Kuchiki family is currently swearing to his wife's memorial tablet. For his sister, he is clearly determined to overturn the rules he has always upheld.

Wig Guy: What about the others?

This is an Actor: Tosen Kaname is acting according to Aizen's plan, preparing to help Aizen seize Rukia's body. Kenpachi Zaraki is going back and forth on the road because of Yachiru's guidance. Mayuri Kurotsuchi is simply not interested in participating.

Machete Girl: Going back and forth on the road is so real. Kenpachi and Yachiru are really a funny pair.

Soul Society's Villain: They are indeed a funny pair when it comes to getting around, but their animal instincts have extraordinary sensitivity. If a battle happens, they can quickly locate and find the battlefield.

"Oh, the execution hasn't started yet?" A sharp voice suddenly rang out. A green-haired man in casual clothes with a long sword hanging from his waist entered the Soul Reapers' sight. "It seems we made it in time."

Behind the green-haired man was a slender and pretty girl with long, light purple hair.

"Tsunayashiro Tokitada." Yamamoto Genryusai turned his gaze to him and said indifferently, "I don't think I invited you."

"Ah, that's right." Tsunayashiro Tokitada curled his lips and smiled, "But I was appointed by Central 46 to personally supervise the execution." As he said that, his follower, Aura, decisively took out a letter of appointment from her arms.

"You better pay attention to your position, kid." Yamamoto Genryusai didn't even look at the letter of appointment and reminded him meaningfully.

As the strongest Soul Reaper who has lived in the Soul Society for thousands of years, does Yamamoto Genryusai really have no political sense? That's obviously impossible.

The person behind Kuchiki Rukia's matter is probably this former student in front of him.

But Yamamoto Genryusai didn't investigate too deeply, because Central 46 had already issued a verdict, so he only needed to follow and uphold this verdict.

Exchanging the death of Kuchiki's adopted daughter for the stability of the Soul Society is obviously a worthwhile deal.

But the appearance of Tsunayashiro Tokitada is clearly a blatant provocation. That's why Yamamoto Genryusai directly issued a warning.

"Don't worry, teacher Genryusai." Tsunayashiro Tokitada narrowed his eyes and replied with a smile, "I have been paying attention from beginning to end." As he spoke, he subtly glanced at Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro not far away.

"This bastard!"

"He's as annoying as ever."

Shunsui and Jushiro showed undisguised disgust on their faces. As classmates at the Central Spiritual Arts Academy, they knew very well the deeply rooted wickedness of the man in front of them.

"Hmph, I don't remember ever having a student like you." Yamamoto Genryusai also disliked the person in front of him very much, and said expressionlessly, "But since it's an appointment from Central 46, then stand aside."

"Hehehe, okay." Tsunayashiro Tokitada nodded and stood intentionally or unintentionally next to Aizen. "Fifth Division Captain Aizen Sosuke, I've long admired you."

There's something wrong with this person.

Aizen instantly realized that this Tsunayashiro Tokitada definitely had impure motives. And his goal didn't seem to be Kuchiki Rukia, but himself.

Interesting, what does he want to do?

Thinking this in his heart, Aizen calmly replied, "It's a bit surprising that the head of the Tsunayashiro family would be so polite?"

"Being polite depends on the person." Tsunayashiro Tokitada curved his lips and chuckled, "Let's get along well."

"Captain Commander, it's almost time." Soi Fon, who was in charge of the execution, said.

Yamamoto Genryusai nodded slightly and asked in a calm voice, "Then, does the criminal Kuchiki Rukia have any last words?"

"I've been wronged!" Rukia said in a trembling voice, "I didn't do anything at all..."

"Execution begins." Without waiting for her to finish, Yamamoto Genryusai interrupted, "Under our witness, the execution army will pierce Kuchiki Rukia's heart, soul chain, and soul sleep!"

The order was issued, and the executioners on both sides of the execution platform immediately drew their swords and stabbed directly at Rukia's lower back, throat, and spine.

Rukia, who was bound, couldn't move at all, and her face was full of despair.

Bankai. Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!

Very abruptly, a pink cherry blossom wave suddenly appeared. Although these cherry blossoms looked like cherry blossoms, they were actually billions of tiny blades.

Very carefully avoiding Rukia's location, they surged towards all the Soul Reapers present.
