"Captain Arima..."

"Captain Arima?"

"Captain Arima!"

The continuous shouting made the person involved suddenly wake up from his drowsy state.

He couldn't help but let out a soft 'Ah', and stood still in a hurry. Arima Shizu also looked around in confusion.

I am in a rather respectable Japanese-style room, with wooden decoration and full of incense... giving off a somewhat well-cultivated temperament.

around……

There were some familiar figures standing there, looking towards him at the moment.

Hinamori Momo next to her showed a rather panicked expression, as if she wanted to touch her face.

Arima Shizu also lowered his head as if he had a headache and waved his left hand, indicating that it was okay... At this moment, he raised his right hand and began to pat his forehead gently.

My thoughts went from hazy to clear.

Until finally it turns completely to Qingming.

Arima Shizuya pondered for a moment, then raised his head and waved to the people around him.

"It's okay, it's okay... I'm just a little dizzy, don't worry too much."

A little bit embarrassed.

After all, right now is not a time for distraction.

At this moment, there were only three people sitting in front of Arima Shizuya. The two on the left and right were Kuchiki family members, and they were looking at him nervously.

And in the middle, a woman with a familiar appearance and a weak expression was speaking in an almost pleading manner.

"Please, Captain Arima... there must be some misunderstanding here. Please be sure to persuade Lord Byakuya..."

The posture is almost prostrated, extremely humble.

After seeing the other party's behavior, Arima Shizu also recalled everything that happened.

Many days have passed since that fateful night when we got together.

Needless to say, Kurosaki Ichigo and his friends spent a lot of time together, and during this period, what the other party saw and heard continued to grow, and every bit of the Soul Society was also revealed.

at the same time.

Arima Shizuya's clone power has also gradually recovered after many years.

But as a result, something slightly troublesome also happened to the person involved.

His energy was unable to fully take care of both sides at this moment - probably because most of his strength as a Hollow was suppressed by Kurosaki Isshin's death power.

It is necessary to maintain one's own consciousness while competing, which is quite difficult in itself.

Therefore, Arima Shizu also often conducts similar "multi-line" operations during this period.

It stands to reason that at a time when technology is still immature, he will naturally be distracted from time to time and be unable to react as quickly as possible to the current situation.

And the current timeline is approaching the next stage.

Rukia Kuchiki violated the rules and gave the power of death to ordinary humans.

Such behavior has violated Soul Society's regulations and needs to be caught and brought to justice immediately.

The reason why Fei Zhen came to her side at this moment was also for this purpose.

"Rukia will not do such random things, Captain Arima! Please advise Byakuya-sama!"

Pleading again.

It is also at this moment that the current contradictions of the Kuchiki family are emphasized.

Even in this timeline, Kuchiki Byakuya still chose to trust the judgment of senior officials and went into battle personally, deciding to arrest him.

"Please raise your head, Your Excellency Feizhen..."

After coughing twice and shaking her head slightly at Hinamori Momo who looked concerned, Arima Shizuya said softly.

"Although Byakuya is a bit rigid, he is definitely not pedantic."

Although the Kuchiki family has a strict and closed style, judging from the style of Mr. Ginling, it can be understood that the people in this family have a certain twisting spirit.

"But, but now Lord Byakuya has set off for the present world..."

Kuchiki Heizhen looked obviously a little worried. She only spoke about Arima Shizuya, but she didn't fully believe it.

Regarding this point, Arima Shizu also has a further explanation.

"It's better to think better, Your Excellency Feizhen."

After a pause, the captain of the fifth division said with a smile.

"If Lucia could have surrendered before Room 46 issued a verdict on her, and completed the internal punishment mechanism... then there should be no room for external investigation."

Kuchiki Hijin obviously failed to think of these contents. She froze on the spot and opened her mouth as if she didn't know what to do.

But he couldn't say a word.

Of course, this is also a very ideal result.

After all, judging from the results of Byakuya's behavior, it's hard to say whether this was a 'just act of extermination' or a 'private cover-up'.

Having said this, Arima Shizu also stood up.

"I think there is no need to say anything more about discussing Lucia..."

"After all, Hijin-dono, you should know Byakuya's temper better than I do."

"What is right and what is wrong, Master Kuchiki will give a clear answer in his heart."

After all, it is a stubborn idea passed down from ancestors. Regarding this aspect, not even Kuchiki Hijin can refute it.

"In that case, let's end today's conversation here. Your Majesty Hijin, for Byakuya... your body is his most concerned thing, please remember this."

Considering Rukia's safety, as a sister, the feeling of abandoning her but then regaining her once again troubled her... Haizhen seemed to want to continue to say something.

But Hinamori Momo next to her had silently walked around to Arima Shizuya, frowning, and just shook her head.

The rejection was palpable.

Or even worse - considering the relationship between the captains and the various conflicts regarding their duties.

Being able to personally come to listen to the other person's troubles and provide them with solutions is already a very empathetic act in itself.

If he were to do something more extreme, it would undoubtedly be a transgression.

Although the other party is a noble, at this time, Hinamori Momo will not give in at all.

After all, Captain Youma is still ill!

The meeting didn't end happily, but Fei was really uneasy, and Hinamori Momo's displeasure could be said to be beyond words.

Because Shizuya Arima's situation has deteriorated significantly during this period.

"Captain, do you really not need to go for another physical examination?"

Not only the coughing, but also the number of distractions gradually increased.

If it weren't for the fact that she could feel that the other party's soul aura had not declined, Hinamori Momo would not be able to help but contact the members of the fourth team.

"Ahem...I don't need to mess with these things, they are just trivial problems."

Although this is indeed the case.

But the current situation looks completely different...

Hinamori hesitated to speak, but in the end she could only follow behind her silently.

It's just that the two people who were still somewhat distant from each other have gradually become parallel.

"Captain Arima, if there is really something wrong with your body, please don't force yourself."

"Ahem, thank you for your concern, Hinamori."

"It's just my duty, you don't have to worry about it!"

Seeing the other party's unusually determined expression, Arima Shizuya couldn't help but feel emotional at this moment.

Perhaps it was because she had completely lived in seclusion behind the scenes these years, so Hinamori Momo had to deal with various matters.

This girl seems to be more resolute and resolute, and at the same time she is far more responsible than the one in the original work.

No.

Or should I say...

‘Under normal development, Hinamori should eventually become this strong and decisive image. ’

Without the prison master's deliberate guidance and strong personal attachment, this is the posture Hinamori Momo should have.

Just thinking of this, Arima Shizuya's expression couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment.

So called people.

It's really easy to control...

"Captain Arima?"

"It's okay, I just thought of something."

Hearing the call from nearby, Arima Shizuya came back to his senses slightly and shook his head gently at this moment.

A plain and weak smile appeared, and he said in a teasing tone.

"Speaking of which, Hinamori has grown up to the point where I can rely on her. You know how to stop someone for me today... Yeah, that's commendable for your courage."

Dodging the left hand that slapped her head, Hinamori Momo took a half step back and said a little embarrassedly.

"No, it's not something worthy of praise."

Arima Jing also burst into laughter.

"Oh~ So you also know that this is wrong."

so.

"Next time, please don't do something so rude. This time, because the other party is Hizhen, the wife of the Kuchiki family has a good temper, so she won't get angry with you and me."

But if it were other refined nobles, they might have to seize this opportunity and tinker with something.

Hinamori Momo could understand the meaning, lowered her head and hesitated.

"However, I am worried about Captain Ariuma's health..."

"I understand, so thank you, Hinamori."

This time, he failed to avoid Arima Shizuya's left hand and allowed him to pat his head. The captain's words like spring breeze came again.

"I just hope that next time, I have to consider my own situation first."

after all.

"As the captain, if I can't take care of the people under my command, then what's the point of continuing on?"

Under the righteous speech, there was no room for any rebuttal.

Hinamori Momo could only purse her lips, nod, and remain silent.

"What's the answer?"

"yes……"

"The voice is so small. Hinamori has really begun to dislike the old captain who can't work, right? I know~ I'll hand in my resignation tomorrow."

"Please, please don't make such a joke!"

The mind accepted it.

But the lessons cannot be ignored.

This is also Arima Shizuya's long-standing educational policy.

Just maintaining the noisy relationship, they returned to the team building.

Arima Shizu also didn't need any foreshadowing because she couldn't handle official duties, so she quickly sent Hinamori away.

Maintaining the image of a patient is a convenience in this regard - no one will come to him unless there are special circumstances.

but……

"What's the matter with you?"

Arima Shizuya turned and looked aside.

In the shadow of the corner, a figure slowly walked out, revealing his true identity.

The loose captain Haori is draped around her body, and she always looks slightly awkward... It was the same in the past, and it is the same now.

"Shouldn't you gain some weight?"

Looking at Ichimaru Gin's increasingly thin figure, Arima Shizuka groaned as if her teeth were starting to ache.

"You're too thin!"

"... Stop it."

Looking like he didn't want to talk any more, Ichimaru Gin walked forward slowly and stretched out his right hand to Arima Shizuka.

"If it weren't for the fact that you're inconvenient to travel, I wouldn't have come here specially."

Arima Shizuka also smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"Thank you so much~ Please send me off again when I come back."

The light band constructed by spirit particles is constantly surging above the Soul Society, and if someone can "sense" this abnormality.

At this moment, just look up.

You can see two figures, constantly building a "bridge" of spiritual power in the air to assist the two in moving quickly.

As everyone knows.

It is strictly forbidden to move quickly by controlling spirit particles inside the Soul Society.

Even the instant step is a prohibited method.

But at this moment, the two of them completely threw such "rules" behind their backs.

Gazing down at the entire Soul Society from a high place, Arima Shizuka couldn't help but sigh.

"The same scenery, just change the angle to observe, you can see completely different scenery."

As he said this, the person involved didn't forget to smile to the side.

"Don't you think so, Gin?"

"..."

Maintaining the output of the runway, Ichimaru Gin didn't want to talk.

Although there was also a desire not to pay attention to such boring conversations, there was more of an indescribable sense of solemnity.

Not long after, the two of them fell straight down.

But the destination was not Rukongai, but the center of Soul Society.

Even worse than the core area of ​​the first team.

Seeing the captain-level spiritual pressure torrent condense and dissipate in the air, until the two fell, there was no disturbance at all.

Arima Shizuka couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that Mr. Aizen's ability of mirror flower and water moon has improved a lot."

Not only can it completely cover up the "strange phenomenon" caused by Ichimaru Gin, but now it can even do it to the extent of not alerting anyone.

This level of precision and meticulousness.

No wonder the old man didn't dare to make a move at will during the battle of Karakura Town - he might really burn his own people alive.

"That's really pleasing, Shizuya-kun."

"But it's not difficult for me to just control the spiritual pressure of a high-level captain."

"It's just relatively speaking. If you want to disguise the spiritual pressure of another peak death god level, it's a bit difficult for me."

In the shadow on the other side, Aizen Sosuke led Tosen Kaname to walk forward slowly.

The corner of the prison teacher's mouth hung with a happier smile than ever before, and his tone was rarely raised.

"Shizuya-kun, welcome."

Arima Shizuya walked forward slowly.

The sick feeling that surrounded him faded away with his steps until he returned to his most normal mental state.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Aizen."

Then, let's get on with it.

"Now... what's the situation?"

The answer came from Tosen Kaname, who had been silent until now.

"Room 46 has been completely cleared."

PS: I haven't recovered at all. Go to bed early. I hope I'll feel better tomorrow... My throat is so itchy
