Seireitei Guanting Street hundreds of years ago

"Why, why wasn't that man sentenced to death!?"

It was a cry that risked its life.

"Please let me see Room 46! Please!"

Stopped by the steel six-foot club held by the strong bodyguard, a young man continued to shout loudly.

The young man has no pupils in his eyes, and it can be seen from some subtle behaviors that he is blind.

The blind young man seemed to be able to judge the surrounding situation only by the sound, and he must have felt the fierce atmosphere of the guards in front of him.

Is it because these guards are relatives of the nobles? There was a clear insult in their eyes when they looked at the young man who seemed to be from Ruhun Street.

However, the young man stretched his hand into the door without the slightest fear.

What poured out from the mouth of the young man was a cry for condemnation. It is a pure plea for justice to be enforced.

But the guards would not even listen to the entreaty, and raised their six-foot sticks at the blind youth.

The sound of cloth rubbing against each other, the swaying of air, and the flow of steps.

The blind young man felt all this and understood that he was about to receive a merciless blow from the guard.

However, he did not avoid it.

Was it despair or sadness that floated on that expression?

However, only here, the expression of retreating out of fear is completely invisible.

The moment the young man came here, he already had the consciousness to bet his body and life.

The guards didn't notice this at all, they just understood that they couldn't dodge because they were blind, and swung their weapons at the defenseless opponent without hesitation.

However—there was a violent impact sound, and the blows of the guards were bounced back.

"!"

What reflected in the eyes of the guards was the Zanpakutō still in its sheath.

Then, the moment they saw the person holding it in their hands, the faces of the guards stiffened.

"Please don't do something that would cause a commotion, it's still Ms. Kakuma's funeral period"

"You, you are..."

"I'll leave it to me to persuade him. Just keep on guarding."

"Yes Yes!"

The blind youth was initially unable to understand what was happening.

His consciousness was captured by the name uttered from the mouth of the man who seemed to have saved him.

Song Kuang.

The reason why I risked my life to come here.

It was the name of an irreplaceable best friend who lived together in Ruukon Street since childhood.

The man who spoke the name spoke to the blind young man in a soft voice.

"I know about you, indeed, you have been to Ms. Kakuma's funeral, right?"

"Do you know... that person?"

"It's a so-called colleague. I'm also a shinigami...but maybe since I failed to protect her, I've already lost my qualifications as a shinigami."

The man said with a sad face, and stretched out his hand to the blind youth.

"Let's go to another place. There's nothing left to say to those stubborn gatekeepers, right?"

..

"Is that so, you are Tōsen Yokun? Even in the team building, she will often mention your name. That's why you were specially called to the team funeral."

If the blind youth—Tōsen was a resident of Rukonkai, he would not have been able to come and go freely in Seireitei since he wasn't even a **** of death.

It is precisely because of this special treatment that he was able to enter Seireitei like this.

"Miss Ge Kuang, when she joined the team as a Shinigami, she left a suicide note in advance. After all, you don't know when you will die in the battle with Xu. Rather, this is actually recommended by the Maou Academy of Spiritual Arts. "

According to Shinigami, who was acquainted with Ge Kuang, in the suicide note, "If I die, I hope that my body can be buried in Ruhun Street", such a wish is written.

"It seems that I want to be buried at the foot of the hill where I can see the stars. As for the location, my relatives and friends called Tōsen Kaname know."

"...That's right, I probably know about that hill."

What popped up in Dongsen's mind was the memory of looking up at the night sky with his close friends at the village on the hill.

- "I like the night sky, yes"

- "Because the night sky is like this world"

- "Everything is shrouded in darkness, and there are many tiny lights"

- "However, there are clouds that block these rays of light"

— "I, I want to. I want to be the one who dispels those clouds"

- "In order not to let any light disappear. I will disperse those clouds, please"

Looking up at the starry sky and saying so, her dream finally came true.

Gained power and status in order to protect the light of the world.

grim Reaper.

As the foundation of everything in the world of souls, he guides people born in this world to this world and makes the world circulate.

By dispelling Xu, who is an evil spirit, it has become people's hope.

She is literally given the right to guard the stars.

However, she realized her dream, but failed to continue to take steps towards the next road.

"...I heard that her husband killed her"

"Ah, that's right. Her husband killed her because of a slight dispute with his teammates, and his own wife who advised him also killed her. That's the truth."

"...Why did she...that person have to die?"

Facing Tōsen who clenched his fists in remorse, the Shinigami man answered.

"Although this is just my speculation, I think it's because she is more upright than anyone else... She is someone who has always held justice and peace in her heart."

This is something Tōsen also understands.

As a close friend, Ge Kuang loves peace more deeply than anyone else, and values ??justice more than anyone else.

Because of this, he also has the consciousness to let his hands be stained red with the blood that gradually returned.

"I also worry about her because I wonder if it will become like this one day. She loves peace too much for the sake of justice. If you deny love whether it is stable or not, it is only for the sake of being called If she lived with cruel justice, she would have killed her husband in turn. However, she couldn’t do that.”

"Are you saying that her wish was wrong!? I heard that the man who killed her wasn't even prosecuted for any serious crimes!"

"That's why you want to see the forty-six room?"

The **** of death sighed softly, and continued to speak as if he hesitated to speak.

"...Do you know the five great nobles?"

"I don't know the exact name of the family, but it is... the most prestigious family among the nobles of Seireitei..."

"The man who killed Miss Ge Kuang is considered to be the blood of the five nobles."

"!"

Although he knew about the marriage with Shinigami, he had never heard that the other party was from the famous family of the five nobles.

To the confused Tōsen, Shinigami went further and continued.

"It's not the blood of the main family, but the descendant of the branch family. Although that man doesn't have any great power, the so-called nobles can do such things as reducing the crime of murder. If it is a member of the main family, Not only will the murder itself become as if it never happened, but Ms. Kakuma will be charged with treason and executed to calm things down.”

"How could it be! Such... absurd thing...!"

Tōsen could not help but raise his voice.

From the moment he heard that the man who killed his best friend was not charged with any serious crimes, Tōsen had also considered the possibility in his heart.

However, he didn't want to believe that such a thing would happen in an organization that she asserted as "a force that exists for justice".

Because of this—it was precisely to deny it that he risked his life and came here to appeal for direct negotiations with Room 46.

"The so-called Grim Reaper, isn't the so-called Guarding Team Thirteen a stable group that protects the soul world and the present world! Isn't the so-called Forty-six Chambers the embodiment of the principles of the world!"

"It's protecting the stability. Because the nobles are also part of the world. It's keeping their stability. And, today's Forty-Six Room is a symbol of this unreasonable world."

"... Goo!"

Facing such an assertive Shinigami, Tōsen could only just stand there in a daze.

As for him like this, Death God said regretfully.

"I understand your feelings very well. I also think it is strange to think that the man who killed her was not charged with a serious crime. However, this is the reality of the world of souls. Forty-six rooms vs. five nobles... especially It’s the powerful Tsunayashiro family who obey me.”

Speaking with a sad expression, the man clenched his fists like Tōsen—

After confirming that there was no one around, he asked in a low voice.

"However, on this basis, I dare to ask you, her best friend, a question."

"...?"

Although Tōsen's heart was eroded by endless anger, he closed his mouth and listened to the other person's words as if he was overwhelmed by the air pressure generated by the man's serious tone.

"If I or you have enough power for vengeance, shouldn't we act on it?"

"this.."

"This is also a question of how we should face her wishes and dignity. Is she... Dongxian-kun, is she expecting your revenge?"

Although Dongxian couldn't see the other person's face and expression, he could feel something similar to murder in the subtleties of the death god's words.

This instead allowed him to regain his composure, and Tōsen tried his best to suppress his anger, recalling the words of his best friend and began to compose words.

The fact that such a murderous aura oozes from her colleagues is far from the world that person expected.

Desperately making concessions in his heart, Tōsen opened his mouth to answer the question of the **** of death.

"...I don't think that person expects revenge. If that's what that person desires...then I don't..."

However, the discourse stops here.

— "Me too, I don't expect revenge"

He was not very good at getting the words out of his mouth.

She would never expect to let someone else's hands be stained with revenge for her own sake. He knows this very well.historical

However, the feelings that pulsate continuously in the depths of the viscera cannot agree with such a thing.

— has nothing to do with her wishes.

— Take revenge for yourself.

Although the dark emotion welling up from his body spoke like this, Tōsen couldn't obey that voice.

Because he knows. If she or someone else succumbed to that hatred—that would be her second death.

It was an act of trampling all the proofs of her life under her feet and strangling her wishes with her own hands.

Only this couldn't be done, Tōsen stifled his own feelings and weaved the replaced words.

"I also... want to value... her wishes, and the justice and peace she desires"

"That's right... that's right. It's true that she loved peace deeply. And she died here because of it... But I don't think that's her weakness."

The **** of death let the murderous intent dissipate, and continued to speak to Tōsen in a calm tone.

"If there is anything that proves that what she prayed for is not weak but strong, it is how people like you will survive in the future."

"..."

"Please make sure to inherit her wish and live on. In order for this world not to continue to shed unnecessary blood."

"..."

His heart did not fully accept the words of Death.

However, Tōsen realized that the man in front of him was someone who had the same understanding as him about his relatives and friends, and he was grateful for him stopping his heart from being stained with hatred.

"..Thank you very much"

"No, it's me who must thank you. As for that, it's someone like you who inherited her will."

"No, I don't have that qualification..."

Now, he is also desperately suppressing the anger and hatred that is constantly surging, and he is not qualified to guard her will. To Tōsen who thought so, Shinigami said so with that gentle smile.

"You don't need any qualifications to inherit someone else's wishes, right? She once said that. Your own wish is not something special. Wanting to protect it is like the stars in the sky. As long as it exists here, it will continue. Glowing things are just tiny hopes like this.”

"..."

The fact that she said those words was proof that she really had hope for her Shinigami colleagues, including the man in front of her.

Judging like this, Tōsen felt relieved that the person who respected her existed even in Shinigami.

"Um...if it's okay, can you tell me your name?"

So, he asked the man's name.

Because he saw that there are other people besides himself in her, because he engraved in his heart the kindness that although the world is cruel, it is not ruthless.

Then, the man said his name in a steady tone without pausing.

"Ah, my name is Tokinada. Tsunayashiro Tokinada."

"Yes, Tsunayashiro-sama is.........?"

At this moment, Tōsen's thoughts stopped for an instant.

A strong sense of disobedience.

It was a familiar name, because I had just heard it from the man in front of me.

— no, but. how come.

—I must be wrong.

Seeing Tōsen's expression as if he wanted to ask another question while thinking like this, the man shook his head lightly.

"It's neither a misunderstanding nor a wrong hearing, Tosen Yo-kun."

"Eh..?"

"Not to mention my face, you don't even know my voice. Oh, it's a fluke that you didn't ask me my name at the beginning. I don't really like having a pseudonym."

"Well, what are you talking about..."

Although Tōsen was confused, his viscera began to shout, instinctively aligning the two opposite words together.

"kill him"

"Run away"

In this way, feelings of hatred and fear mixed together began to rush through the blood vessels of the whole body.

But the key rationality couldn't catch up, so no action was taken on either side. Facing Tōsen like this, the man announced his position to the other party with a light tone.

"Just say it again. I am, Tsunayashiro Tokinada... the man who used to be your best friend's husband. No, now, it should be the enemy who killed your best friend."

"..."

"Oh, it's great that you don't expect revenge. After all, being hated by the poor people of Ruukonkai who have nothing to lose is more terrible than being hated by a group of nobles who only think about protecting themselves and have no courage. how many

The man who was talking nonchalantly put his hand on Tōsen's cheek while maintaining the same smile.

At the same time, a cold air that he had never experienced before hit Tōsen.

It was different from what I felt from my best friend, only the creepy and heavy spiritual pressure penetrated my whole body, suppressing the violent impulse in my body with all my strength.

The fear that surpassed the limit even silenced the instinctive cry of "run away".

"If you answered the question just now like 'Kazuma is expecting revenge', I'm going to kill you. Talking to someone who doesn't understand her at all will only make people uncomfortable. Same Leaving aside the words of Shinigami, no matter how many residents of Ruukonkai can be killed, it won’t be a problem.”

Although it was only now that he realized that the murderous intent he felt from the man's words was aimed at him, it was already a good thing.

The meaning of the other party's words is completely incomprehensible. I don't want to understand either.

But it was enough to let Tōsen's emotions explode and liberate his body from the heavy fear.

In front of him was a man who claimed to be his best friend and enemy.

And it doesn't matter if it's true or not.

However, he did not allow a man with such an ominous air to talk about his best friend in front of him.

The negative emotions that had been suppressed in the depths of his body so far exploded, attacking the **** of death in front of him, and attacking Tsunayashiro Tokinada.

「——————————————————————————————————————

Not even a voice.

Accompanied by howling like a beast, Tōsen twisted the man in front of him tightly.

However-

"My wife's best friend, why are you so angry?"

The world of Tōsen spun sharply.

The back hit the ground violently, and the body became unable to maintain balance.

The taste of blood spread from his mouth, and his hands and feet were numb with severe pain.

Even so, above Tōsen who was trying to stand up, a calm voice continued to echo.

"My wife... Uta Kuma, she can forgive me."

"You...you ****...!"

Although Tōsen roared in the direction of the sound, the blood spilling from his throat made him unable to form words well.

"Did you answer the question just now? Pay attention to her wish, that's it. If you really think about my wife, you should forgive me, forget the hatred, and spend a peaceful life under the protection of us and the **** of death. Every day, isn't it?"

"... Goo!"

"My wife is also expecting you to do this, right? Try to understand, even if it's for her."

Then, Tokinada pressed the Zanpakuto together with the scabbard against the throat of Tōsen who was trying to get up, so that his voice could not be heard and he pressed him to the ground.

"In the end, you, who don't know how to use any of Zanken Zougui, didn't have the power to take revenge from the very beginning."

Then, he said to the gate guards who had gathered after hearing Tōsen's call.

"Yeah, you guys. This is a job, right? The residents of Ruukon Street attacked me. Can you please drive him out as soon as possible?"

"Yes Yes!"

In front of the relatives of the five great nobles who kept smiling and said so, the guards obeyed the instructions, feeling something inexplicably scary.

The man switched places with them and left Tōsen, and spoke as if recalling something.

"Ah, I'll just mention it to avoid misunderstanding. I didn't tell you a single lie. It's a strange world that a man like me hasn't been punished as he should. Then, I didn't get out of this world I really feel sorry for protecting Ge Kuang in the unreasonable way, and I do understand that her wish is precious.”

"—"

Even so, Tōsen, who had lost his voice, snarled something and stared at Tokinada.

For even he, who should have been blind, saw clearly.

On the face of the departing Grim Reaper, that vicious smile was full of malice and pleasure.

"It's just that I hate that kind of wish like I want to vomit."

Then, deeper than the anger at that man, I felt deep despair at the world that trampled on the ground the wishes of my best friend.

That day, the stars she was looking up to—absolutely did not shine on her.

She herself was the real light that illuminated the world, and even that was lost forever.

Over the head of Tōsen, who was enveloped in deep despair and anger, the six-foot sticks of the gate guards were raised high again—

And this time, no one will stop it.

=====

A blind young man in Ruukonkai looking for a meeting with the Central Forty-Six Room.

A few minutes after he was taken away by the "wife-killing nobleman", the nobleman spoke to him with a hearty smile.

"Yeah, you guys. This is work, right? The residents of Ruukon-gai attacked me. Can you please drive him out as soon as possible?"

Although they really didn't understand what happened, the men in charge of guards had no reason to refuse this instruction.

"Yes Yes!"

The door guards also felt the creepiness in the nobleman's words, but they followed his instructions honestly.

Because they understand that no matter what the inside story is, it has nothing to do with them. Compared with disobeying the nobles, it is much more beneficial for them to beat the residents of Ruhun Street in front of them until they cannot move.

The nobleman seemed to continue to say something to the blind man, but he didn't need to understand the meaning.

They thought that even though they were only the last members of the branch family, it would not be a good thing to get involved in the disputes between the five nobles.

The blind Ruukonkai resident with his throat crushed glared at the nobleman while screaming something.

What a provocative attitude for the poor in Liuhun Street.

The guards were going to beat him thoroughly so that the poor man would not want to set foot on Guanting Street for the second time.

Inspired by the sadistic expression of the blind young man's despair, the guards unconsciously showed the same smiles as the nobles themselves.

This ignorant young man must be educated himself.

Then, on the head of the blind man surrounded by deep despair and anger, the six-foot stick was raised again——

This time, no one will stop it.

While the knocking sound of the six-foot stick continued to sound, the blind young man—Tosen Kaname, listened to those sounds in a daze.

-what happened?

— What are these guards... doing?

Wrapped in despair and anger, the burning soul began to regain some composure due to confusion.

Although he couldn't see anything in his blind eyes, he could perceive what was happening just by the sound and the flow of air.

A guard with a sadistic smile continued to swing the six-foot stick in front of Tōsen's eyes.

To the other guard standing beside him, who was his partner.

"You, you bastard, what are you doing... Ugh"

Although the beaten guard asked loudly, his voice was interrupted by the attack towards the front door.

"Talk back! You dirty pariah!"

Although thinking that this might be an act to let him go, he immediately denied this inference through the beating man's heartbeat and despicable breathing.

The guard was not attacking his partner beside him, but was seriously planning to beat himself.

Dragging the unconscious partner, the doorman left to the other side of the road.

Hearing the voices of the gate guards going away like this, behind Tōsen who gradually calmed down from the chaos—suddenly, the voice of an unknown man rang out.

"The water in their water tanks has been replaced with wine. The action just now will end in the form of a quarrel caused by drinking alcohol while on duty. Although the nobleman will find it strange, let him go on suspiciously as much as he wants. "

It was a steady voice.

However, unlike the nobleman—Tokinada just now, there was something like a lump of power hidden deep in the voice, and it was a voice that would feel pressure just by hearing it.

"Who is it... you too... are you also Shinigami...!"

While Tōsen was still confused, the hatred in his heart was ignited again, and he asked with murderous aura as if he wanted to bite the throat of the man in front of him.

So, the man didn't intend to hide anything, and answered frankly.

"That's right. That's right. It's just a small part of the boring world that you were desperate for and wanted to burn up with the flames of disgust."

The newly appeared shinigami made a proposal to Tōsen.

"Don't you have any plans to temporarily store your hatred in my (servant)...me (private) place?"

Tōsen was surprised, but from the voice of the man in front of him, he felt the confidence that he had already grasped his heart in his hands and—— an overwhelming feeling that gave the illusion that he was talking to the root ruler. "strength".

The man held out his hand to Tōsen while maintaining a steady tone—and said his name.

It was the name of the man who showed Tōsen a "way" and then turned against the world and aimed at the sky.

"My name is Aizen Soyousuke. Right now... just a small shinigami"
