Death god, my Zanpakuto is a bit trendy

"Cang Chun."

Kuchiki Ginling stopped.

"Although it's still a little early, since Byakuya has entered the Zhenou Spiritual Arts Academy, he shouldn't let this opportunity pass by."

"Isn't his 'friend' good at ghost magic? Then find a book... What was the spiritual power test level when you came last time?"

"Seventh grade."

"Seventh-level Lingwei... is already very good at this age. Although there is still a big gap between him and Xianghe, he is still worthy of our investment."

After all, Kuchiki Ginling is well-informed, and the level of an upper-level official of the seventh-level spiritual power can only be regarded as barely acceptable.

"Finding a secret copy of the "Double Lotus Blue Fire Pendant" and passing it on to him is a little thought for us as elders. "

Chapter 73 of Breaking the Way·Double Lotus Canghuo Pendant.

With such a high-numbered broken path, it is truly among the high-level ghost paths. It is not an easy task to obtain it, let alone the secret version collected by nobles such as the Kuchiki family - through the Kuchiki Gin It can be seen from Ling's description of "one book" how rich the content recorded in the secret biography is.

"..."

Kuchiki Sojun was stunned for some reason and did not respond immediately to Kuchiki Ginrei, so the latter asked:

"What's wrong?"

"I don't think it's necessary."

"oh?"

Kuchiki Ginling looked back at his son.

Although Kuchiki Sojun was very opinionated when it came to handling such matters, he would never deny Kuchiki Ginrei's opinion.

"How to say?"

"Before going to the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy, I asked Byakuya to bring a gift...even though the kid didn't notice it himself."

"......good."

Kuchiki Ginling nodded.

Just like he would find suitable subordinates for Kuchiki Sojun, the latter's behavior obviously paved the way for Byakuya's future - the students of Zheno Spiritual Arts Academy are weak, but at least their backgrounds are relatively clean; and like Geniuses like Xianghe are not easy to find.

"Have you asked Byakuya to send the secret of the "Twin Lotus Blue Fire Pendant"? "

"Um......"

Kuchiki Sojun's smile was a little subtle.

"That's not it."

"Um?"

It was normal for the judgment of father and son to be biased, but his son's subtle smile made Kuchiki Ginrei feel a little curious.

"Compared to the profound ghost path, I have prepared something more suitable for that child."

Kuchiki Sojun did not answer directly, but gave him another small pass.

"What?"

Kuchiki Ginling also saw clues from his son's twists and turns.

"Tenzukumaru."

"..."

Kuchiki Ginreimoto's old eyes sharpened for a moment, but he did not rebuke Sojun Kuchiki, but quickly regained his composure and continued:

"The Kuchiki family does not have the habit of doing charity. Although it is no longer needed now, the value of Tenzuku Pills, Sojun, should be very clear to you——"

"Will the Sifengyuan family just give away God-given weapons?"

Regarding the "wealth" of the Soul Society, the four nobles have different interests in each other. The Kuchiki family is best at various secrets of ghost ways.

Although there is a certain risk of leaking secrets by using this as a gift, it will not damage the strength and heritage of the Kuchiki family.

But other things... The Sifengyuan family is called the "God-given military equipment", but they will never give out the god-given military equipment as a gift easily; on the contrary, the Sifengyuan family is good at Shunpo secret transmission is a kind of wealth that can be "traded".

"Miss Yoruichi gave Byakuya a lot of 'toys'."

"She's just kidding!"

Kuchiki Ginrei's eyebrows almost jumped when he mentioned Shifengin Yoruichi, the head of a noble family whose behavior was not reliable at all.

"But our relationship with the Shifouin family has indeed become closer, and the pressure from the Tsunayashiro family has been reduced a lot, right?"

The Tsunayashiro family, the head of the four nobles, suppressed the Kuchiki family, the ten thousand-year-old second-in-command.

"...Go on."

Kuchiki Ginling quickly calmed down.

"Family wealth is indeed accumulated from generation to generation like this, but using a treasure that may not be used for a long time in exchange for a friend who is truly worthy of trust——"

"I think it's worth it."

Kuchiki Sojun said with certainty.

"You rated that student very highly."

"Regardless of potential or character...are you afraid of seeing the wrong person?"

Kuchiki Ginling raised the question from another angle.

"Father."

"You should be very aware of my Zanpakutō abilities."

Kuchiki Sojun patted the hilt of the Zanpakuto at his waist and answered his father's last doubt.

"You actually freed the Zanpakutō?"

Kuchiki Ginling said with some surprise.

Kuchiki Sojun's Zanpakutō ability was very special. Considering that Kuchiki Sojun's body had not recovered at that time, he should not have released the Zanpakutō easily, not to mention testing a student of the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy at such a "price".

"Although I feel sorry for that child, since he is Byakuya's friend, I definitely can't turn a blind eye."

"......what colour?"

After hearing Kuchiki Sojun's explanation, Kuchiki Ginrei continued to ask.

"white."

Kuchiki Sojun's Zanpakutō ability can reflect changes in the soul through color.

"nothing else?"

"A little yellow, nothing."

"......It's rare indeed. If I remember correctly, Byakuya's friend was not highly regarded in the Shin'o Academy."

Haruto was a typical example of "fawning on the powerful" in the Shin'o Academy.

"But if that's the case--"

Kuchiki Ginrei frowned.

"True friends are rarer than speculators who come for the Kuchiki family's reputation."

Before his father finished speaking, Kuchiki Sojun interrupted him rarely.

"The latter are easier to control."

"But such guys, except for Xianghe, are mostly mediocre talents who cannot be cultivated."

"......That's right."

Kuchiki Ginrei nodded with relief.

"By the way, father."

The two continued to walk along the corridor towards the main hall of the main family.

"Anything you want to ask?"

This distance can be said to be a rare quiet time for the father and son. Once they enter the main family, the surrounding ears and eyes will suddenly increase.

"It's not that I don't believe Captain Hikifune, but... the part about the Hollow in the materials of Tenru Pill won't have any negative effects, right?"

"You mean the symptoms when you first took it?"

"Yes."

One thing Haruto guessed correctly was that when taking Tenru Pill, Kuchiki Sojun's face did briefly appear with a mask-like shadow.

However.

This part of the power belonging to the Hollow was suppressed by Kuchiki Ginrei as soon as it appeared - Ukitake Jushiro also had a similar phenomenon when taking the first Tenru Pill, which made the Kuchiki family prepared in advance... Of course, the power of the Hollow was directly "defeated" by Ukitake himself before it took effect on him.

"Without the captain-level power to suppress it, I'm worried..."

"Soujun, you are still too kind."

Kuchiki Ginrei shook his head and said:

"Isn't this just right?"

"I think you didn't hide the materials of Tenru Pill from Byakuya, and that kid must have told it out very loyally."

Kuchiki Ginrei knew the character of his grandson very well.

"Then the consequences and possible side effects... when the student finds the problem, he will naturally come to us again to seek a solution."

"If you really think highly of him, isn't this the best time for him to work for the Kuchiki family?"

"Of course."

Kuchiki Ginrei said, changing the subject.

"If he can suppress the power with his own ability, I will also be sincerely happy for Byakuya-"

"It's not easy to meet such a talented friend."

"..."

Kuchiki Sojun did not respond directly to Kuchiki Ginrei's words.

He knew that there was nothing wrong with what his father said. It was precisely because of such a meticulous and proper way of thinking that the Kuchiki family had stood as a "great noble" in the Soul Society for so long, instead of being expelled from the great nobles like the neighboring Shiba family.

But his style of doing things was quite different from his father's.

At the last second before entering the family meeting room, Kuchiki Sojun looked up and glanced at the somewhat gloomy sky.

Tenjumaru

As the direct beneficiary of Captain Hikifune Kiryu's creation, Kuchiki Sojun is very clear about the efficacy of the medicine and the problems caused by it:

The spiritual pressure fragment of the highest-level Great Hollow, Vastod.

The Kuchiki family is the most "strict and upright" noble family in Soul Society. There will be no stains on the resume of the head of the family, let alone actively contacting the power of Hollows. Therefore, the spiritual pressure fragments used to make Tenjumaru must not come from the Kuchiki family's storage.

Such things are not worthy of the upper nobles, and the great nobles cannot have them.

So...

It can only be a "gift from heaven".

Volume 1: 012, Ise

"Ah~"

Haruto yawned loudly facing the sunset.

"Is it so late already?"

The sky of the Soul Society darkened, and less than a quarter of the sun was left in the western sky; because the graduation exam was officially over, there was no trace of students in the Shinō Spiritual Academy at this time.

Even the lights that had just been lit were a little sparse.

"The Tenrumaru that Byakuya brought is indeed a good thing."

Haruto raised his hand and looked at his palm which had stopped shaking.
