Volume 13: Noragami and the God of Death Chapter 031 Leverage
He was basically certain that the escape of Ishida Uryuu and others was related to Unohana Retsu.
It is very likely that Unohana Retsu was the one who planned the escape of Ishida Uryu and others.
Even Ishida Uryu and others might not know that this incident was planned by Unohana Retsu. They might even think that he escaped from prison through his own efforts.
But no matter what, after Ishida Uryu and others escaped, the travel disaster came to an end.
Although Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni gathered all the captains and gave them a severe reprimand, he believed that the years of peace had caused them to regress.
A group of death gods actually let a few disasters escape, which was a disgrace to Jingling Court.
But that's where the story ends.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni did not send anyone to capture the escaped Takaraku. After all, they did not even send anyone to capture Urahara Kisuke and others who defected, let alone a group of Takaraku.
And they have more important things to do right now.
The Invisible Empire.
The captain of the Second Division, Soi Fong, and the captain of the Eighth Division, Kyoraku Haru|sui, discovered traces of the Invisible Empire at the same time, which made Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni take this matter very seriously.
After reprimanding the captains, he announced the existence of the Invisible Empire.
This surprised the Grim Reapers present.
No one had expected that the Quincies, who were once thought to have disappeared into history, had actually established an invisible empire right under their noses.
The captains' faces turned unnatural when they thought about the fact that their every move was being monitored by the enemy .
"Is this news true?" asked Komamura Satsuki.
Kyoraku Shun|sui nodded, "Ah, it's true, I once had a conflict with a Quincy not too long ago."
"You mean the day when Lihuo invaded and you suddenly used your Bankai?" Komamura Sajin suddenly understood.
Kyoraku Shun|sui nodded, his face not looking good, "That Quincy was very powerful, and possessed quite strange strength. I had to use my Bankai to repel him."
Soi-Feng also echoed, "In fact, I also discovered the existence of the Invisible Empire when the Traveling Disaster invaded. Although I didn't fight the enemy, I accidentally overheard their conversation."
"This group of Quincy said that Yhwach has awakened, regained consciousness, and is trying to regain all his power. When he regains his power, the Silent Soul Court will be destroyed."
"What a big tone! I really hope they won't let me down." Kenpachi Zaraki smiled expectantly.
Unohana Retsu's gaze lingered twice on Soi-Fong and Kyōraku Haru|sui.
Having read the plot, she of course knew that this section was not in the original plot.
Neither Soi-Fong nor Kyoraku Haru|sui discovered the existence of the Invisible Empire.
Otherwise, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni would not have died at the hands of Yhwach.
But now the two Shinigami claimed at the same time that they discovered the existence of the Invisible Empire when Lihuo invaded, which made Unohana Retsu suddenly think that it was very likely Emiya who was behind it.
This man is really...
Unohana Retsu thought so in his heart, but said: "No matter what, we should be cautious. The Invisible Empire has been hiding in Jingling Court for thousands of years, and we know everything about it."
"But we know nothing about the Invisible Empire."
"And if the opponent develops a move that targets our Bankai, we will most likely be at a complete disadvantage."
"For example, using some method to take away our Bankai."
Unohana Retsu's words shocked everyone present.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's pupils also involuntarily contracted violently.
"Taking away Bankai, this kind of thing is too unbelievable no matter how you look at it." Ukitake Jushiro was the first to express his disbelief. After all, Bankai is their skill.
Can a move be taken away? That's unlikely.
The other captains nodded, and they also felt that Unohana Retsu's words were a bit exaggerated.
"Take away my Bankai?"
However, Kurotsuchi Mayuri did not subconsciously deny this possibility. Instead, he began to think about whether it was possible to take away Bankai.
After some intense thinking, he got the answer.
"uncertain."
For a moment, everyone turned their eyes to Kurotsuchi Mayuri.
Kurotsuchi Mayuri raised his Zanpakutō and said slowly, "I just thought about it. Taking away Bankai may seem like a fantasy, but it is actually not impossible."
"Although there are many difficulties, even if I can't take away Bankai, I can still seal it."
"If the people of the Invisible Empire really have the ability to seal Bankai, then our Soul Society will be completely defeated."
These words caused an uproar in the hearts of many captains.
Indeed, if what Kurotsuchi Mayuri said was true and Bankai could really be sealed, then the battle between Soul Society and the Invisible Empire would inevitably be at an absolute disadvantage.
After all, Bankai is too important for captains. It is not only about improving spiritual pressure, but also about various kinds of moves.
Once these moves are no longer usable, how can they fight against the Invisible Empire?
“That’s enough!”
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni suddenly shouted, interrupting the thoughts of many captains, "Don't spread this speculation recklessly before you get enough information."
"Also, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, I order you to find the Invisible Empire as soon as possible."
"Yes, Captain. I will definitely find the Invisible Empire in the shortest possible time."
Kuroshio Mayuri agreed without any hesitation.
In fact, even if the captain didn't say so, he would have taken on this mission. He was very interested in the Quincies, otherwise he wouldn't have dissected the body of Ishida Sogen, the grandfather of Ishida Uryu.
It's just that the latter is too impatient.
So over the years, Kurotsuchi Mayuri has been wanting to find a new Quincy to conduct research on. Now that he has heard of the existence of the Invisible Empire, he naturally does not want to miss this good opportunity.
After the meeting, Unohana Retsu returned to the Fourth Division.
She found Emiya, who was disguised as an injured Shinigami and recuperating in the Fourth Division.
No one would doubt Emiya's identity.
Not to mention that Unohana Retsu personally covered for Emiya.
"SaiFong and Kyoraku Haru|sui, it was you who did this, right?" Unohana Retsu asked straight to the point.
Emiya nodded and said, "Yes, I entered the Seireitei in the first place because I wanted to see if I could find the Invisible Empire. Who knew that these guys hid so deeply? That's why I modified the memories of Soi-Fong and Kyoraku Shun|sui and asked them to tell Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni about this matter."
Unohana Retsu immediately understood Emiya's idea, "You want to build the power of Soul Society and find the Invisible Empire."
