Chapter 202: Heal Him
Chapter 202 - 202: Heal Him"Your Excellency Hoshi, I can say with absolute certainty—Kenpachi Kiganjō is dead. I ended his life with my own hands."
Masatsuki Aozaki spoke firmly, his gaze unwavering, filled with determination.
"If you have any doubts, you're welcome to verify the autopsy report with the 4th Division."
"The examination was conducted by Seinosuke Yamada, former Lieutenant of the 4th Division and the current Acting Director of the Shin'ō Medical Institute."
"He's highly regarded among the noble families for his exceptional skill. I doubt someone like him would make a careless mistake."
Masatsuki appreciated people like Hoshi, who focused on getting things done, but if they thought they could make him spill any hidden truths that easily, they were mistaken.
Hoshi frowned at his response and pressed further.
"Then, when Kenpachi Kiganjō died, did anything unusual happen?"
"Something unusual?"
Masatsuki furrowed his brow, sinking into deep thought, as if
He moved as if he owned the place.
A faint smirk played on his lips as he added, "Relax, I'm not here to eat you."
"What do you want?" Mayuri frowned. "If you're here for a completed Artificial Soul, you're far too early."
"There's no way I'd have results in such a short time."
"That's not why I'm here. I need a favor."
Masatsuki smiled casually as he sat down across from Mayuri.
"What kind of favor?"
"My senior, Jūshirō Ukitake—you know him, don't you?"
"Yes, I know him. I met him before I was imprisoned."
"Then you're aware of his condition?"
"I am. And what does that have to do with you?" Mayuri asked impatiently.
"Can you cure him?" Masatsuki asked.
Mayuri's frown deepened.
This man was no saint, so why was he suddenly so concerned?
"I can try, but I won't know if it's possible until I examine him."
"Then I'll leave it to you," Masatsuki said with satisfaction.
Despite all this talk, he had complete confidence in Mayuri's abilities.
Ukitake had always been frail, but after losing his lungs, he had relied on a special power to sustain himself. If anyone could cure him, it was Mayuri.
Mayuri's talent was undeniable, but his research was still in its early stages—what he needed was time.
However, Masatsuki's true goal wasn't just Ukitake's recovery.
It was the One-Eyed God, Mimihagi, residing within Ukitake's body.
As a sickly child on the brink of death, Ukitake had been taken by his parents to the shrine of Mimihagi.
The entity had claimed his lungs in exchange for prolonging his life.
Masatsuki knew the truth—Mimihagi wasn't just some god.
It was the right arm of the Soul King.
In Hueco Mundo, the Hōgyoku had absorbed the Soul King's kidney, awakening ahead of schedule.
Now, Masatsuki wanted to see what would happen...
If the Hōgyoku absorbed the Soul King's right arm.
