Chapter 1491: A group of main characters is on the way
At the base of the first squad, in Su Xiao's laboratory.
Su Xiao and Sousuke Aizen were sitting across from each other. A low wooden table stood between them. There wasn't much food on the table, but there was a small jug of wine on top of it.
They were chatting about something. Su Xiao looked relaxed and lazy, so most of the time Aizen was talking and he was listening, or to be more precise, Aizen was asking him something, like things related to potions, so their gathering looked quite ordinary.
It wasn't just the two of them in the room. A girl was standing not far from them. She was Aizen's vice-captain, Momo Hinamori.
Momo Hinamori looked at the two of them with a smile on her face. She hadn't seen Aizen drink with anyone in a long time. Moreover, she could see that the two of them had developed a good relationship, which was a very good sign considering Su Xiao's skills.
At the very least, the fifth squad would no longer have to worry about soul potions, which would reduce the death rate in their squad.
When she thought about it, her smile became even sweeter, but what she didn't know was that these two were a serious threat to the entire Soul Society, and soon all the captains would be looking for them.
— Captain Aizen, although this may sound a bit rude, you should give up the idea of trying to create potions. Your talent in this area isn't enough to get you started, " Su Xiao said and put down the wine glass on the table. This wine was tasteless, and the worst part was that neither Yamamoto nor Retsu had arrived yet.
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Aizen didn't react at all, but Momo Hinamori nearby pouted.
— Mr. Byakuya, what you said is too unreasonable, Captain ... " but before she could finish, Aizen smiled and waved his hand.
— I really don't have the talent in this business. It's getting pretty late. The Soul Society has been uneasy lately. As the captain of the fifth squad, I can't leave my headquarters for long, " Aizen accidentally brushed his wine glass as he stood up from the table.
Soon, Aizen and Momo left.
Momo smiled and waved at Su Xiao before leaving.
— An innocent rabbit was bewitched by a wolf, " Su Xiao muttered as he picked up a glass from the table and placed it on the puddle of wine.
He could feel a hint of spiritual power from this wine.
The spiritual power gathered in a chain and formed a few words.
«At nine o'clock in the evening, in the drawing-room».
Aizen left these words before leaving, which meant that he was about to put his long-prepared plan into action.
The location in question was in the territory of the fifth squad, and the fifth squad belonged to Aizen.
Su Xiao's pupils narrowed. He knew that the main character of this world, Ichigo Kurosaki, was going to join the Soul Society, Bubtney informed him about it.
As soon as the group with the main character arrives here, events will begin to develop very rapidly, and it is at this time that you will need to harvest.
Su Xiao had only disguised himself for so long to make it easier for him to act during this period.
However, he had to gain as much reputation as possible up to this point. He had to buy one item from the faction shop, a thing that would allow him to summon captain-level shinigami for help.
With a captain-level shinigami at your back, it will allow Su Xiao to have a great influence on Aizen.
A shinigami who was summoned through this item would be considered a summoned creature, however, it didn't need to have a free slot to summon it, nor did it need to have the corresponding qualities. This item was powerful, but unfortunately, it wasn't perfect. It could only be used in this world, which greatly reduced its value in the Paradise trading area.
If Su Xiao wanted to gain as much reputation as possible, he currently had three options. The first was to accept tasks from captains, but he was a scientist, and it wasn't appropriate for people of science to accept normal tasks from captains.
The second was to do great things in the Soul Society, like telling everyone that Aizen and Gin Ichimaru were traitors. This path would allow him to gain a huge amount of reputation, but it was extremely dangerous.
However, Su Xiao was now in cahoots with Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Kaname Tousen. In addition, even if he reported their betrayal, it would not really lead to anything good, because they had a noticeably greater reputation, and it would be quite difficult to believe the words of a novice.
The third was to create soul potions, but the production volumes had to be limited.
Besides, it took a lot of mana to create soul potions, and in such a dangerous world, Su Xiao had to have at least a quarter of his mana just in case.
After weighing the pros and cons over and over again, Su Xiao suddenly came up with a good idea, not only would it allow him to gain a reputation, but it also wouldn't cause him to waste too much mana, and it would also make his status skyrocket right away.
— Nanke.
A few seconds later a girl cautiously peeked inside.
— Mr. Byakuya, did you want something?" Nanke asked, standing still with her hands behind her back. In her hands was an exquisite bracelet that Momo Hinamori had given her before leaving.
Nanke, who was never appreciated, received a gift from the fifth squad's vice-captain today. It made her positively glow with happiness.
Today, she realized that being Su Xiao's subordinate was quite good.
— Go and find the captain of the fourth squad, Retsu Unohana, and let her come to me.
— Nanke was speechless for a moment. She understood what he wanted her to do, but Su Xiao didn't have the power to order the captain to do anything.
— Sir, this seems a little inappropriate. The fourth squad's base isn't far from here. Why don't we...
— If they tell you to leave, just leave right away, " Su Xiao said and glanced at Nanke.
Although he still looked casual, she now felt that she shouldn't have said no».
— Okay, I understand, " Nanke replied, bowed, and left.
She came to her senses after walking a long way. Earlier, she had felt fear, or rather, dread.
In less than half an hour, Nanke brought Retsu Unohana to Su Xiao's lab.
— I heard you wanted to see me?" Retsu asked and looked at Su Xiao with a smile on her face, and when Nanke saw her expression, she subconsciously shivered.
— That's right, " Su Xiao replied and put down the unfinished alchemy bomb. It was extremely unstable, so he treated it with extreme caution.
Retsu stepped inside and slammed the wooden sliding door shut, causing Nanke behind her to almost crash into it.
— I recently developed a very good prototype potion, or rather, it can't be called a potion anymore, " After saying that, Su Xiao picked up a test tube next to him and pulled out a nail-sized spirit ball.
The purity of this spiritual ball was 50%.
As soon as Retsu saw this ball, she immediately felt hungry.
— I call it a capsule with compressed biologically active spiritual particles. Of course, you can also call it a spirit ball. As for its application, everything is very simple here. It just needs to be swallowed, " Su Xiao said and tossed the spirit ball to Retsu.
After catching it, she forcibly suppressed the urge to swallow it and began to stare at it.
The shinigami's body was made up of spiritual particles. Because of this, they instinctively wanted to swallow the pure spirit particles.
— When a shinigami eats such a ball, its spiritual pressure will start to improve. These balls are completely harmless, but the speed of improving spiritual pressure is not very fast, however, the slow method is always the safest.
No shinigami would be able to refuse what Su Xiao was going to present to this world.
