Aizen discovered a new re
Initially, anyone who violated Soul Society's laws faced appropriate punishment. Later, it became acceptable as long as bottom lines weren't crossed. Now it had become simply: whatever, as long as Soul Society isn't destroyed.
All these changes could be credited to that troublemaking disciple.
Taking another sip of tea to wet his throat, Genryūsai continued:
"Look at now — thanks to that troublemaker's influence, the nobles have become more restrained. While unrest hasn't vanished entirely, it's much better than before. But after just a few years of peace, these fools are getting ideas they shouldn't have. Perhaps it's time to replace this corrupt system." The old man sighed helplessly, "I no longer have the temperament, nor am I suited for such work.
But that troublemaker is different. He's lawless enough to kill even Ansai Tsunayashiro — what wouldn't he dare to do? When he succeeds as Captain-Commander, he'll surely bring unimaginable reforms to Soul Society. Of course, if the Central 46 dares to meddle, I believe that fellow will do things nobody wants to see. Most importantly, that kid Akira isn't the type to crave power."
Chōjirō fell into contemplation.
Though familiar with Genryūsai's personality, hearing such rebellious words still struck him as strange.
But after brief consideration, a smile appeared on his face. Whatever happens, things tend to develop for the better.
Captain-Commander Kisaragi, huh?
It's truly something to look forward to...

"The analysis results are in." Aizen lifted his gaze from the Reishi microscope and looked at the hyperactive husky beside him, taking a deep breath, "These black crystals are essentially modified souls. According to Kurotsuchi's research materials, this disturbance originated from Sōya Azashiro's proposal — the Mod Soul Project. However, this plan was too extreme, and with your interference, Sōya chose to abandon it. You've seen his outcome.
But the Central 46 didn't abandon the related plans, and secretly launched Project Spearhead, with Ōko Yushima — Kagerōza Inaba's previous "form" — as the person in charge."
As he explained, Akira recalled the general plot.
Simply put, it was a story about a psychopath trying to destroy Soul Society through technology.
"The Reigai technology has been completely decoded." Aizen explained, "However, its foundation isn't Mod-Souls, but rather the Soul King fragment existing within Kagerōza's soul. According to dissection analysis, it should be an organ similar to a Shinigami's Hakusui. The Reiatsu it contains isn't particularly strong, but it possesses the ability of 'sharing'..."
He was enthusiastically explaining, but when light snoring sounds came from the laboratory, his mood instantly plummeted.
Looking at Akira's nodding head before him, Aizen pushed up his glasses and said expressionlessly:
⤫ Hadō #90: Kurohitsugi ⥤ Black Coffin! ⤬
Soon, Tom's screams erupted in the laboratory, followed by a declaration of independence in opposition to Aizen.
After taking a solid hit from Kurohitsugi, Akira became much more docile.
He had no interest in the Soul King's fragments; rather than watching Aizen's experiments, he'd rather steal his glowing cuisine. There was still plenty left from the dishes he had commissioned Aizen to make last time — it was time to clear them all out.

When Akira returned from the Rukongai, an unexpected figure caught his eye. She wore a snow-white haori, carried a smile gentle as flowing water, and gazed at him with eyes full of nostalgia and anticipation.
Unohana approached him slowly, her lips curving into a subtle smile.
"Kisaragi-kun, the moonlight is beautiful tonight, I wonder..."
