"Bang! Bang!"
The sound of two falls to the ground stunned the surrounding Shinigami of the Sixth Division. They looked blankly at Tosen Kaname and the two Shinigami whose spiritual pressure quickly dissipated when they fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"An attack? Was there an attack?"
"But...it was Captain Dongxian who appeared..."
…
Amidst the bursts of chaotic exclamations, there was a series of sounds of blades being unsheathed.
Dozens of Shinigami who were in charge of the main gate area of Noble Street subconsciously drew their Zanpakutō towards Tosen Kaname, and the leader of the Sixth Division's chief officer shouted nervously.
"Captain Dongxian, please stop!"
However, Tōsen Kaname's footsteps did not stop at all, and he continued to walk forward. The captain-level spiritual pressure emitted from his body made the palms of the many Shinigami who were holding swords towards Tōsen Kaname tremble slightly.
The gap between captain-level and ordinary-level Shinigami is as big as heaven!
At this moment, just the spiritual pressure emanating from Tosen Kaname almost made most of the Shinigami's hands holding their Zanpakutō tremble.
The leader of the Sixth Division, the chief officer, gritted his teeth and shouted again. "Captain Dongxian, stop, otherwise don't blame us for taking action."
"Stop? Why stop?"
Dongxian Yao said as if murmuring. "The only thing in my eyes is justice. Are you trying to stand in the way of my pursuit of justice?"
Almost at the same time that Tosen Kaname finished speaking, Tosen Kaname's Zanpakuto was drawn out from his waist.
"Tweet! Clear away the insects!"
Seeing this, the other Shinigami of Division 6 fully realized that something was wrong, and subconsciously made various responses...
Either performing a Zanpakutō attack, preparing to release Kidō, or planning to send a signal for help!
"Second Style of Clearing Insects: Red Migratory Locust"
The Zanpakutō Kiyomizu in Tosen Kaname's hand shook, instantly creating a large blade with sharp edges at both ends that fell from the sky like a heavy rain, covering all the Shinigami of Division 6 in front of him.
"Pfft!!"
"ah!!!"
Accompanied by the continuous harsh sound of flesh tearing, bursts of screams echoed in parts of Noble Street, causing the nobles who were having various elegant or extravagant fun in Noble Street to be startled.
"What's going on? I think I heard a scream?"
"Did a travel accident come here?"
"It's really disappointing, go and see..."
For a time, some nobles who were closer to the main gate of Noble Street either went there personally or sent their servants to investigate the situation.
However, when someone approached the main gate of Noble Street, what they saw was corpses strewn everywhere...
In the bloody scene of broken limbs and broken bodies, Dongxian Yao, whose eyes were covered, was covered in blood. There was no madness or pleasure on his face. He was still mumbling words, and his expression seemed to be doing something extremely sacred. And the righteous thing!
"Crazy, crazy!"
"Captain Dongxian is absolutely crazy..."
"Someone is attacking Noble Street!"
In an instant, amid bursts of chaos, the news spread like crazy in Noble Street.
From the beginning to the end, Tōsen Kaname showed no intention of stopping. He was carrying out killings with his Zanpakuto and Kiyomichi. He showed almost no mercy to any nobles who appeared in his spiritual pressure perception.
However, after the initial confusion, the nobles in Noble Street reacted...with anger! ! !
Not all nobles live within the scope of Noble Street. To be more precise, there are probably two tendencies among the nobles in the entire Soul Society.
One: It is similar to the Shifengyuan family, the Kuchiki family, the Ohmaeda family, the Aoki family, etc.
While these families maintained their lofty status as nobles, they were also completely connected to the Gotei 13th Division, and noble residences and the like were also located near the team building.
The second one is the aristocratic group headed by the Tsunayashiro family who follow the older system.
Compared to the Gotei Thirteenth Division, which has only been stationed in the Seireitei for more than a thousand years, these older aristocratic groups are the ruling class that have maintained Soul Society for tens of thousands of years.
These noble groups not only control countless resources within Soul Society, but also control a large number of important institutions and facilities within the Seireitei, independently of the Gotei 13th Division.
Even the members of the Central Room 46 are actually just a spokesperson group launched by these aristocratic groups living in the Noble Street.
Based on the concept that Senju Makoto once understood, if the Gotei Thirteenth Division is similar to the shogunate, these nobles represent the imperial court...
Moreover, these noble groups are basically the same as during the period of the more ancient ruler Jing Ling Ting. Each family has its own armed strength and heritage!
Now the attack on Dongxian Fortress, in the eyes of the nobles on Noble Street, is tantamount to the following!
"How dare you, a mere untouchable who has been promoted in Rukongai, to do such a treasonous act? Please report it to Central Room 46 immediately..."
"Hmph, I see. I'm afraid Dong Xian is the accomplice of those traveling disasters, right?"
"This is not a place where just a captain can mess around!"
These ruling groups, which were once the ruling groups in Soul Society's older era, sent their own armed forces to try to kill Tosen Kaname on the spot.
For a time, as a large number of noble armed forces gathered to launch an attack on Dongxian, chaos completely broke out in Noble Street.
Perhaps there are almost no captain-level beings in the private armed forces of the nobles, but there are many captain-level or deputy-captain-level beings.
"Boom boom boom..."
And even though Tōsen Kaname is a captain-level Shinigami, he faces a large number of private armed forces assembled by nobles alone, and the one who is suppressed is Tōsen Kaname!
Even as a large number of noble armed forces surrounded Dongxian in a small area of Noble Street, some nobles began to watch the battle with interest, and even placed bets on how long Dongxian would be able to sustain it.
"ten minutes……"
"No, no, no, at least thirty minutes. Even if Dongxian is blind, he has been the captain for decades and his strength is still good."
"I bet it will take up to fifteen minutes. He is just a civilian captain of Rukongai. He is facing a large number of opponents dispatched by us who are on average at the level of chief officer and deputy captain..."
…
(PS: In fact, if you compare it carefully, you will find that the structure of Soul Society in Bleach is quite similar to the power structure of Japan's Warring States Period. The Soul King/Emperor was made into a puppet, representing the Samurai Shogunate/Gotei 13th Division. After a strong rise, the Zero Division used the alternative method of "holding the emperor to order the princes" to implement their rule.
While the Spiritual King was regarded as the supreme being, he had all the organs representing power cut off and was placed as a "human stick", and he could still be manipulated and replaced at will. )
