Help! I am bound to Aizen!

"What...?"

Seeing the oncoming sword pressure, Shinchira Renzosuke's expression shifted.

At the moment Kaelith Yurei had dodged his blade, he had nearly slipped into Shinchira's range of attack.

The sword pressure was so close that there was no time for him to adjust or defend.

**Boom!!!**

A burst of blue spiritual pressure erupted from Shinchira Renzosuke, radiating outward from him as the center.

Kaelith flipped backward, drawing a long arc in the air before landing lightly beside Yoruichi.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

Yoruichi gave a half-smile, half-sigh. "Me? What about you? You just clashed head-on with the Captain of the Third Division. How are you holding up?"

"I'm fine, no big deal," Kaelith replied with a nod.

In truth, he didn't need Yoruichi to remind him that the opponent was a Captain.

After all, Shinchira hadn't even tried to hide it, boldly appearing in his haori.

As the dust cleared, Shinchira Renzosuke's figure reappeared.

Blue spiritual energy swirled and rose around him like an animated effect.

When faced with Kaelith's close-range attack, he had released part of his spiritual energy to crush the sword pressure entirely.

It was like an external energy release, directly nullifying Kaelith's attack without taking any damage.

"No wonder he's a Captain," Kaelith remarked, watching Shinchira. "That move would've taken down any normal seated officer by now."

Yoruichi furrowed her brow.

This guy—did he even realize how dire the situation was?

Shinchira Renzosuke stood with his Zanpakutō in hand, quietly watching Kaelith.

Through the mask, he couldn't see Kaelith's face.

The spiritual energy contained in that sword pressure was also unfamiliar to him.

It must be someone he didn't know.

In that case... killing him wouldn't be a problem, would it?

Sensing the killing intent emanating from Shinchira, Yoruichi quickly spoke up.

"Captain Shinchira! We are members of the Stealth Force!"

"We received intelligence that thieves might infiltrate the Twelfth Division tonight, so we hid here in advance!"

As she spoke, she pulled out a wooden badge from her waist.

"This is my authorization token."

"If you're suspicious, you can verify with Lieutenant Ōmaeda!"

Shinchira tilted his head slightly at her words.

"I see, the Stealth Force, is it?"

Seeing that Shinchira seemed to accept her explanation, Yoruichi exhaled slightly in relief.

But in the next instant, Shinchira suddenly appeared in front of her.

With a flash of silver light, his Zanpakutō slashed toward her neck!

Yoruichi's eyes widened.

She hadn't expected Shinchira to attack her without hesitation after hearing her identity.

Was this guy... insane?

No, something was wrong.

This guy wasn't here to catch thieves!

A terrifying realization struck Yoruichi like lightning.

She tried to use Shunpo to evade, but she was a step behind Shinchira's movements and missed the best moment to dodge.

At this point, all she could do was try to avoid a fatal wound—whether her stomach would be sliced open was already beyond her control.

However, Kaelith seemed to have anticipated Shinchira's attack.

Before Shinchira's blade could strike, Kaelith kicked Yoruichi away.

**Bang!!**

Before the blade could reach her, Yoruichi's body was sent flying like a cannonball from Kaelith's kick! (t/n he is starting to remind me of Vegeta)

Shinchira's blade cut through the air, and his brows furrowed.

This troublesome brat had interfered with him twice now.

Wait… brat?

Could it be?

Kicked away by Kaelith, Yoruichi flipped mid-air and landed steadily on a nearby rooftop.

Ignoring the fact that she had just been kicked, she shouted angrily, "...Be careful! This guy is one of the rebels!"

Although surprised and angry, she managed to swallow her first words and refrained from shouting Kaelith's name.

Hearing this, Shinchira clicked his tongue and was about to speak when Kaelith grinned and said, "Idiot, wasn't that obvious?"

"From the moment he appeared, he's been suppressing his spiritual pressure to a minimal range, not letting even a sliver leak out."

"If he were legit, he'd be making as much noise as possible to draw others over to help."

"Someone trying to go unnoticed? What other explanation is there besides guilty conscience?"

Hearing this, Yoruichi froze for a moment before a look of realization appeared on her face.

Then she glanced at Kaelith, surprised.

This guy, despite having no Stealth Force training, had noticed such a subtle flaw in such a short time.

Yoruichi smirked slightly.

As expected, she was right—this guy was perfect for the Second Division!

Shinchira clapped lightly.

"Impressive, kid. I didn't expect you to be not only a genius in combat but also so sharp in analysis."

"No wonder the Captain-Commander took you in as his disciple."

"Am I wrong, genius of the Shin'ō Academy, Kaelith Yurei?"

Hearing this, Kaelith tilted his head.

"Kaelith Yurei? Oh, I've heard of him—handsome, elegant, supremely talented, the pride of Shin'ō Academy, right?"

"While I might have a bit of talent myself, I'm nowhere near his level."

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Musashi, and over there is my cousin, Kojirō."

"Captain Shinchira, please take good care of us brothers!"

Yoruichi: "..."

How many names were they going to go through tonight?

Hearing Kaelith's words, Shinchira frowned slightly.

From all the clues, the boy in front of him matched the description of Kaelith Yurei.

But his self-introduction didn't sound made up…

After thinking for a moment, Shinchira shook his head lightly.

It didn't matter. Whether he was Kaelith Yurei or not, he had to die today.

If he didn't kill these two, his collaboration with the rebels would be exposed.

He had to kill them as quickly as possible and retrieve the artificial soul data from the data room.

No one would ever find out it was him!

Having made up his mind, Shinchira raised his Zanpakutō.

Seeing his movements, Kaelith narrowed his eyes.

Gripping his blade with both hands, he said softly, "I'll hold him off. You go."

"Before he kills me, call for reinforcements."

"Whether I survive depends on how fast you move!"

Hearing this, Yoruichi took a deep breath.

Without wasting any words, she turned and moved.

Noticing her movement, Shinchira's figure blurred as he moved to intercept her.

Kaelith, standing in the way, poured spiritual pressure into his blade.

This strike was many times more powerful than the previous ones.

If Kaelith dared to block, Shinchira would cleave him in two with one slash!

Feeling the immense power of the strike, Kaelith's expression shifted.

But he didn't retreat. Instead, he swung his blade to meet the attack.

If he could hold Shinchira back, Yoruichi might live, and he might have a chance too.

If he couldn't stop Shinchira, both of them would die.

Just as Shinchira's blade was about to land, a voice rang out.

"Oh my… what's all the commotion?"

"Why are you all gathered at my house?"

Hearing this, Shinchira's face showed panic for the first time.
