Uehara Byakuya was still satisfied with his current rate of growth.
Moreover, he was about to complete a special mission, the situation was excellent, and it was worth looking forward to.
At this moment, Uehara Byakuya said without turning around: "Are you that afraid of me? I don't bite!"
Yoruichi Shihouin walked out of the shadows, looking at Uehara Byakuya with a sullen expression: "How did you find me?"
Xingjun and the Hidden Mobile Force, were most skilled in assassination and infiltration. These two units were almost equivalent to the Shihouin family's private army.
Therefore, Yoruichi Shihouin had been practicing in stealth, assassination, and Shunpo since she was young.
However, the skills she had practiced for so many years, she couldn't even get close to the other party, which was quite a blow to her.
Uehara Byakuya turned around and looked at Yoruichi Shihouin through the only hole in his mask.
This time, Yoruichi Shihouin had changed into a purple top and black tight pants, highlighting her nearly perfect figure.
This attire didn't look like she was coming to fight.
He shrugged and answered Yoruichi's question: "Have you heard of 'Knowing a Woman by her Scent'?"
At this time, looking at the yellow spiral mask on Uehara Byakuya's face, Yoruichi Shihouin was a bit puzzled:
“Why did you suddenly put on a mask? Your eyes are covered, can you see?”
"It's because I don't want to see. I saw something I shouldn't have seen last time, it was a bit too spicy for the eyes." Uehara Byakuya's face under the mask was very serious.
"I apologize then." Yoruichi Shihouin habitually clenched and released her fist, continuing to probe: "Is this mask also a divine weapon?"
“It's a divine weapon, a very powerful one, and it also has a story. This mask comes from a lickspittle. This kid suffered from ‘hereditary spiritual red eye disease’ since he was a child, but he was cheerful and helpful, and would forcefully help old ladies cross the road when he had nothing to do. Until he saw the woman he loved die in front of him, he froze his heart and felt utterly broken. From then on, ‘Clown mask on my head, I don't love anyone.’ Legend has it that if you gather Afei's mask, Tom's violin, Fiddlesticks' sword, and Boiling Lamb's horn, you can summon the Lickspittle King to fulfill any wish.”
"Lickspittle King?" Yoruichi Shihouin was half-believing: "Fulfill any wish? Sounds unreliable."
Although this guy's words sounded like nonsense, he spoke with conviction, and it didn't sound like he was making it up.
Which of his words were true and which were false?
She couldn't tell!
Uehara Byakuya took a few steps towards the pirate flag, picked it up and unfolded it towards Yoruichi Shihouin:
"See this flag?"
"I see it, and then?" Yoruichi Shihouin's expression was calm.
"Pay up!"
"I'm on the run, I have no money!"
"Then use a divine weapon as collateral, it doesn't have to be too good, just something at the level of [Sōgyoku]!"
Yoruichi Shihouin laughed angrily: "You think [Sōgyoku] is a cabbage? Forget that I'm not the head of the family, even if I was, I wouldn't be able to take out that kind of divine weapon."
"Then I'll take a loss, just any divine weapon will do." Uehara Byakuya said, while tossing the pirate flag up and catching it.
Yoruichi Shihouin's heart moved, she chuckled:
"With your strength, you wouldn't need the help of divine weapons, right? After all, your Zanpakuto ability is space-based."
Uehara Byakuya could tell that Yoruichi Shihouin was probing him.
But he didn't pay any attention, instead, he threw the pirate flag in his hand, making it land stably on the ground. Then he grinned:
"You know that I can freely enter and leave the Shihouin family's mansion, right? Since the sister won't give in, the brother isn't out of the question. Miss Yoruichi, you wouldn't want your cute younger brother to become my shape, would you?"
"You're a beast!" Yoruichi Shihouin almost blurted out.
The reason she had been going in and out of Seireitei frequently recently was to arrange family affairs, especially to protect her younger brother, Yushiro.
Otherwise, when the person is gone, it would be too late to arrange things.
She didn't even know the background of this "Otsutsuki Naruto," and he was already pointing out her weakness.
The key was that Yoruichi Shihouin knew that this "Otsutsuki Naruto" truly had the ability to threaten Yushiro.
This guy was more mysterious than Aizen, and more shameless than Aizen.
What kind of karma did Seireitei create to have this pair of "Sleeping Dragon and Hidden Tiger"?
In desperation, Yoruichi Shihouin proposed: "Let's cooperate! As long as you join forces with us to deal with Aizen, you can get what you want."
"Cooperation, huh!" Uehara Byakuya stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked in a serious tone:
"I want the things, but I don't want to cooperate, what should I do?"
"You should die!" Yoruichi Shihouin almost exploded, it was so infuriating.
Uehara Byakuya chuckled lightly: "You're getting impatient, impatient, you're getting impatient."
Yoruichi Shihouin punched out, but naturally missed.
Looking at the phantom-like "Otsutsuki Naruto," she finally calmed down and asked in confusion:
"Why won't you cooperate with us? It's beneficial to both of us. You shouldn't be afraid of Aizen with your ability, right?"
"It's not a matter of fear or not." Uehara Byakuya said matter-of-factly: "Of course I want to be on the side of the victor!"
Yoruichi Shihouin was confident:
"Aizen is just a villain hiding in the shadows, he can't fool everyone, soon we'll be able to return to Seireitei."
She really believed it at the moment.
Uehara Byakuya almost laughed out loud, he mercilessly mocked:
"What are you going to rely on to return? ‘Will of Fire,’ ‘Will of D,’ ‘Will of Darkness’ or ‘Golden Spirit’? Until now, you still don't understand where you lost. You and Aizen are not playing the same game. You're playing hide-and-seek, he's playing a live-action Werewolf game. He didn't 'knife' you all, just because the timing wasn't right. It's just that he doesn't care about this patch of land in Seireitei. Otherwise, you would all be kneeling and calling him ‘Captain-Commander Aizen.’"
Uehara Byakuya didn't underestimate the power of "bonds" and "protection."
But in reality, those who wear shoes are afraid of those who go barefoot, and those who are pointed at by guns are usually honest people.
Yoruichi Shihouin was undeterred:
"Fake is fake, one day everything will be revealed, he will show his flaws."
Uehara Byakuya chuckled:
"As a member of the five noble houses, don't you know? Our world is a palace built on lies! You five noble houses and Soul Society are nothing more than built on lies. So how the truth is, doesn't matter."
In fact, the five noble houses who now talk about protecting the Soul King, were the ones who "quartered" the Soul King back then.
The Zero Division and the five noble houses, their so-called protection of the Soul King, was actually "guarding the Soul King's corpse".
This is the biggest secret of Soul Society, an absolute taboo.
Yoruichi Shihouin's pupils constricted, she was surprised: "You even know this, it seems that your Otsutsuki family is indeed one of the ancient families."
After she finished speaking, her eyes turned cold: "So you are going to side with Aizen?"
Facing Yoruichi Shihouin's sharp gaze, Uehara Byakuya shook his head, his tone light:
"Not really. What I mean is that your level of thinking and overall view are not on the same level as Aizen's. You need a leader to take charge."
