Chapter 1197 Joining Forces

'Oh... I was able to say it in one go without the strange feeling. Though I will have to check later if he really left.' Kisuke thought to himself, "It's no different from abolishing the Seireitei, no?"

Naturally, the former Shinigamis were having a hard time wrapping their heads around Kisuke's idea of [Reincarnation] as they had handled only one type of thing. However, they all understood the implication behind it, "You're going to make an enemy out of every noble out there, not to mention the Zero Division."

Kisuke sneered at them which caught them off guard, "The fact that you think like that shows how these nobles would rather confine innocent people than lose their influence."

Yamamoto became speechless. He wanted to refute it, but what he said is the truth. If the normal citizens of the Soul Society didn't exist, then the nobles wouldn't be able to gather armies, and their research and development regarding various things will start to fall off. The Gotei 13 are the guardians that help the souls pass on and purify Hollows, but they're also just a big shield that guards those in high positions from outside threats. Behind them it was a constant struggle for power and influence. A war hidden in the shadows.

'If not for that, then Yhwach and his Quincy wouldn't have been able to take advantage of the darkness and hide themselves for so long.', Yamamoto thought to himself while looking down. He was powerful, but all those times, he could only look forward and the moment he looked back, those who he protected would see that as a threat, 'The Seireitei (Court of Pure Souls) huh... It's anything but that.'

Yamamoto sighed, "Then do you plan to kill all of them if they go against you?"

"Of course not." Kisuke confidently answered, "If I do that, I would be nothing but a giant hypocrite. I may be a hypocrite sometimes, but I still won't deny what's a very normal occurrence in every power structure out there. What they're doing is distasteful, but both you and I won't be able to call it evil. Whether we like it or not, ambition is the biggest fuel to progress and it's the reason why the Seireitei stands where it is today."

"But they won't stay still if you take away their most precious resource."

"That's why I intend to offer them a deal they won't be able to refuse." Kisuke replied with a big smile on his face, 'And drag them into my problems while I'm at it.'

Yamamoto turned, looked through the windows, and became silent. Those around him didn't dare interrupt his train of thought.

'Everyone below a certain amount of Spiritual Power will be reincarnated... That would mean it includes the weaker members of the nobility. They surely wouldn't allow that so his offer, aside from them keeping their power structure, is the exemption of these members.' Yamamoto considered various possibilities but this was the simplest solution he could think of if Kisuke really wanted to pull off his plans.

He turned back to Kisuke and asked, "So this offer of yours, will you also offer it to us?"

'The large majority of Humans in the world of the living possess weak Spiritual Power, but they won't be included in the new system until their death. In other words...'

"You guessed it? As expected of the most experienced Shinigami of the Gotei 13." Kisuke replied while reading his expressions, "That's right. I intend to give everyone a physical body. That way, they'll be considered 'alive' by the system."

"Do you mean a Gigai? But they won't be satisfied with just that."

"It's a special type of Gigai that allows one to exert their strength without any limits. Not just that. Learning how to utilize Magic Power, also known as Hell's Blessing will be a lot easier. The only downside is that you can't leave it."

Furoufushi, Chika, and Batsu'unsai immediately reacted to that with the former immediately asking, "That's possible!? But wait, you haven't mentioned anything about the inhabitants of Hell. What's going to happen to them?"

"I didn't mention anything about them because as it is now, they'll be considered 'alive' by the system. In the first place, the situation here is strange. While you might think that this is your second life, that's not the same case if viewed from a different angle."

"You mean the reason for our existence? What is it?"

'Food.' Kisuke thought to himself but decided not to say it, "I'm still doing a lot of things to confirm my findings so I can't answer you just yet. But after I'm done, I'm hoping that I'll be able to find a way to detach everyone from Hell's influence."

"Alright. I'll join you." All of a sudden Yamamoto dropped a bomb.

"C-captain!?" Batsu'unsai panicked and stood up, "Do you know what you are saying!?"

Yamamoto tapped his cane to the ground creating a loud thud, "My decision is final. I won't implore you to follow after me, but I hope you remember why I established the Gotei 13 in the first place."

Choujirou, Furoufushi, Chika, and Batsu'unsai froze on the spot.

'The Royal Guards won't do anything against the nobles who are starting to reach out to the innocent souls with their cruel hands. 'Ejisai, a commoner who had suffered at their hands immensely, gained power and gathered people to establish the Gotei 13 with the blessing of the leader of the Royal Guards. The Gotei 13 wasn't initially founded to go against outside threats but to contain the nobles' greed.' Choujirou thought to himself while clenching his fist. A second later, he walked in front of Yamamoto and immediately dropped down to his knees, "Ejisai, please allow me to follow you."

The other three also walked forward. Although they didn't go as far as kneeling, they all lowered their heads and said at the same time, "Captain! We also wish to follow you!"

At this sight, Yamamoto couldn't help but remember the past and be emotional. Although they were the worst slaughterers in the history of Soul Society, it was all for the sake of pushing the commoners out of reach of the nobles. With a soft smile, Yamamoto replied, "There will be nothing that would make me happier."

Yamamoto then looked at Kisuke who was also a bit stunned at his on-the-spot decision, "There you have it. Tell us what we need to do. These old bones are not about to rest yet."

Kisuke smiled. Finally, he got one of the strongest support that he could have. He stood up and said, "Alright. Just stand by for now. I need to escalate things a bit to divert some attention."

"Oh? What are you going to do?" Yamamoto curiously asked but immediately regretted it when he heard his answer.

With a large grin, Kisuke declared, "The big bad evil boss, Urahara Kisuke's, declaration of war~!"

The surrounding Magic Power whirling around Kisuke which hid his true aura slowly receded as he released his Reiatsu-Ki. Although it felt really weird, it was undeniably Kisuke's Reiatsu from Choujirou and Yamamoto's perspective.

Kisuke didn't just stop there as his skin also turned white along with a pair of horns growing out of his head. Soon, his eyes blackened and his hair grew longer. At this point, his Reiatsu is so heavy that everyone around him, except for Tiamat has to step back.

"This is... Hollowfication?" Choujirou loudly muttered, "What are you planning to do!?"

Kisuke didn't answer and instead, activated his next card, "Shunkou Blood Gate, 5th Gate: Acceptance." Blood-red armor covered all of his limbs and a transparent red hagoromo which was filled with the scent of blood.

With 5 of his drum-like structures behind him opened like eyes, Reiatsu-Ki exploded once more and became even more concentrated to the point that any normal people who approached him within a few feet would disintegrate into nothing.

The very dense Reiatsu that he's releasing immediately reminded Choujirou and Yamamoto of one other individual, '...Aizen Sosuke.'

The fully Hollowfied and armored Kisuke put forward his hand, stabbing it into space itself and ripping it apart like how Yoruichi's Byakko did it. With an opening as large as him, he walked forward while saying, "I'll be back."

The next moment, Kisuke found himself overlooking the Spirit King Palace and the five cities below it
