Chapter 1517: Evil Gene
Having finally solved a serious problem, Su Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
Bubtney began to remove the iron sticks and throw them into his inventory. Although they were consumable, they were not disposable. As long as they had a special plasma liquid in them, this trap could be used once more. Also, for Bubtni, this trap was more than just a consumable item, it was a gift from the Ban race in honor of making a friendship.
The omen of death clearly angered Bubtney, so he decided to take advantage of this expensive gift. Bubtney wasn't to be underestimated at all. Su Xiao often gave Bubtni pocket money, but over time, this money turned into amounts that some contractors could only dream of. Since Bubtni didn't have much to spend this money on, he had more and more of it with each world he went through.
Money-loving Benny was very jealous of him and often borrowed money from him on the pretext that she could increase it. In most cases, Benny only lost more money than she earned, and when Bubtney came to her for the designated amount, Benny pretended that she never borrowed anything, which is why they ended up fighting.
The egg that Death Omen and Shienod had been trying to nurture all along was destroyed by Shienod's dying impulse.
Because of the destruction of this egg, Su Xiao no longer felt anything strange, which allowed him to relax a little.
Violators were very different from ordinary contractors. They had very strange abilities and could interfere even for a period of time.
Intruder with the double mark of Paradise, intruder who could teleport around the world, summoner, a combination of intruder, employee, and Void creature...
Each of the breakers possessed at least one unique ability, and Omen of Death was no exception. She was both a melee and ranged fighter. She clearly could also be a mage, but because of Su Xiao's specialness, she couldn't manifest that part of herself.
The noise generated during this battle attracted the attention of many Rukongai civilians. All of them were hiding in the distance and watching the fight, and at least one of them had obviously already reported the fight to the shinigami from Seireitei.
Since Su Xiao was a wanted criminal, he certainly couldn't stay in this place any longer, besides, Aizen's plan was going to start working very soon, and now that the Omen of Death could no longer interfere with him, he could participate in this party with a clear heart.
----
Nine o'clock in the morning, Seireitei, on the bridge to the Tower of Remorse.
Several shinigami, dressed in gray robes and wearing hoods of the same color on their heads, walked across the bridge.
With the exception of their eyes, every area of their bodies was covered in a gray cloth.
The identities of the Remorse Tower guards were supposed to be kept secret, which was why they were so strangely dressed, and right now, these guards were escorting a young girl.
The girl was wearing a white dress and a red leather ring around her neck. This ring completely blocked her spiritual pressure, turning her into an almost ordinary soul devoid of any power.
That girl was Rukia Kuchiki. Today is the day of her execution, and right now, she was being escorted to the execution site.
After learning that she was sentenced to death, Rukia was initially afraid, but then accepted her fate and mentally prepared for today's execution.
Slowing her pace, she looked up at the sky. She didn't seem to have anything else to cling to. If she continued to live, it would only harm those who wanted to save her.
Thinking about this, Rukia smiled, but just when she was about to face death, a smiling man walked up to her, and seeing him, Rukia's thoughts became confused.
— Good morning, Miss Rukia, " Gin said, walking up to her with a smile on his face.
— Gin ... Ichimaru, " Rukia replied and instinctively wanted to take two steps back, but she suddenly thought about the fact that she was about to be executed anyway, so why should she be afraid of this venomous snake? She was going to die soon anyway, so why should she be afraid of such snakes? It even sounded ridiculous.
Suddenly realizing this, Rukia became much calmer.
— Miss Rukia, you are as rude as ever. Don't call me by my first name, just call me Captain Ichimaru. If you call me that again, I'll let your brother know.
Gin must have come here to accompany her, after all, the weakest point of execution was to directly escort the culprit to Rukia's execution site.
— I'm sorry, Captain Ichimaru, " Rukia replied. She didn't really want to pay attention to Gene, but for some reason, he blocked her path. The originally arrogant guards of the Tower of Remorse behind her were now dummies who didn't dare to utter a word.
— Hahaha, just a joke, don't take it seriously. I won't joke around with you anymore, and forget about what I said in the past, after all, you and I are so familiar with each other.
Gin's attitude changed dramatically, and he even called her an old acquaintance.
In a private house a few kilometers away from the bridge, Su Xiao put headphones on his ears.
— Gin, Aizen told you to stop teasing Rukia, let her go, let her go on, " Su Xiao said.
He, Gin Ichimaru, Aizen, and Kaname Tousen kept in touch through their headphones. These headphones were obviously provided to them by Su Xiao. Since he had the identity of a scholar, they didn't question the authenticity and origin of these things, at least they wouldn't doubt him because of such simple things.
As long as the thing worked to his advantage, Aizen wouldn't even think about how or why this or that thing worked.
On the bridge, Gin pressed his hand to his ear when he heard Su Xiao's voice.
— Why would Captain Ichimaru come to a place like this? Rukia asked and narrowed her eyes.
She felt that Gin had bad intentions.
— I was just walking around the area, so I decided to tease you a little, Rukia, " Gin replied to both sides at once. This answer meant that he really saw Rukia Kuchiki in front of him.
— What a bad sense of humor, do whatever you want, " Su Xiao muttered and lit a cigarette.
— Did something happen?
Gene still had a smiling expression on his face, but now there was also a hint of annoyance.
— Nothing like that, but come to think of it, the people who wanted to save you haven't died yet, but... They're all going to die soon.
Rukia frowned at that.
— How unfortunate, all your friends will die trying to save you.
— Don't be silly! Rukia growled, and the corners of Gene's mouth turned up.
— Are you scared?
— …
— You don't want them to die, so you start to be afraid, and fear will stimulate your desire to survive. Well, why not, let me... save you, " Gin said, and eased his spiritual pressure.
— Captain Ichimaru - " The guards of the Tower of Remorse panicked. The more they listened to their dialogue, the more they felt that something was wrong. If any other captain had said that, they would have just thought he was joking, but Gin Ichimaru could really do that. This guy always walked around with the same fake smile on his face, and it was impossible to tell what was on his mind.
— What are you talking about?...
Gin ignored the guards of the Tower of Remorse and started walking slowly towards Rukia.
His powerful spiritual pressure caused Rukia's forehead to break out in sweat. She sensed that Gin was really willing to take action. His spiritual pressure definitely said so!
But Rukia couldn't understand, couldn't understand why Gin was willing to go through with this. Was he recruited by Ichigo Kurosaki?
— So what? If you nod, I'll save you right now.
Gin Ichimaru's spiritual pressure caused the guards of the Tower of Remorse to tremble, while Rukia looked at him in confusion.
Gin raised his hand, and the guards of the Tower of Remorse felt that they should have run away to save their lives.
Gin's hand gently touched Rukia's head, and he leaned forward and looked directly into her eyes. — I lied to you.
— ??? — Rukia stared at Gin blankly. Earlier, she really felt that he was ready to save her.
Gin turned and walked away, waving goodbye to Rukia. "Bye-bye, Rukia-chan, I'll see you at the scaffold.
Looking at Gin's gradually receding back, Rukia's pupils trembled. She had already become indifferent to life and death, but because of Gin's teasing, she wanted to live again, his words caused a surge of fear in her heart, the fear of death.
Gin's action was like serving a glass of water to a traveler who was about to die of thirst in the middle of the desert, and just as the traveler was about to raise the proffered glass to his lips, Gin suddenly told him with a smile on his face that there was actually sulfuric acid in the glass.
