Bleach: After Retiring From Zero Division, Aizen Came To Study

Chapter 52: For The Sake Of This World, Make Atonement For Your Sins!



"So, that's it..."

Sōya Kenpachi couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He finally understood the reason for everything.

It's not that Shinigami doesn't want to get rid of all the Hollows, but because the existence of Hollows is reasonable, they must exist. Only their existence can make Hueco Mundo stable. The stability of Hueco Mundo will directly affect Soul Society.

"Who are you exactly?"

Sōya Kenpachi's eyes fell on Arima's face, and for the first time he took a serious look at the man who defeated him.

Aizen's eyes also quietly fell on his master.

He was really curious about the origin of his master.

Unfortunately, Arima didn't give any earth-shattering answer, "I'm just a teacher at Spiritual Arts Academy."

This answer seemed too light and indifferent, and this identity was too ordinary.

Too ordinary to be accepted by Sōya Kenpachi.

So, he lost to a teacher at Spiritual Arts Academy?

So, his understanding of the world is even worse than that of a teacher?

Spiritual Arts Academy, of course he knew about it.

This is a school specially designed to train Shinigami. Anyone with Shinigami qualifications, whether noble or commoner, is eligible to enter and study there.

He did not enter it because he was a noble.

The teachers there, except for the active Shinigami who made guest appearances there, are mostly former Shinigami who retired from Gotei 13. They are no longer suitable for fighting, but they have extremely rich Shinigami experience.

What was the identity of the teacher in front of me before he retired and entered the Spiritual Arts Academy?

"Master, what's your past?" Coincidentally, Aizen also had such thoughts.

"Forget it, no matter who you are, it doesn't matter anymore." Sōya Kenpachi suddenly said this after being silent for a while. He said to Aizen: "Sōsuke Aizen, take me back to Seireitei."

Although Aizen was also seriously injured, he was still able to move.

But he was not as injured as Sōya Kenpachi. So many "clones" had been destroyed, and he had suffered backlash that could not be expressed in words. After saying so many words at this moment, he was already at the end of his strength.

"Sōya Kenpachi, what do you want to do?"

Kenpachi was smart enough to ask Aizen to take him back to Seireitei instead of letting Arima do such a thing.

Obviously, what Sōya Kenpachi is going to do next is related to Gotei 13.

But Arima is not from Gotei 13.

Sōya Kenpachi said frankly: "I committed a serious crime, intending to transform Rukongai's souls and destroy the balance between souls. Such behavior is inacceptable. I shall no longer serve as the captain of Gotei 13, so I am ready to return to Seireitei and surrender. "

Aizen looked shocked. He never thought that Sōya Kenpachi would make such a choice.

After realizing that what he did was wrong, he didn't even try to hide his fault. He directly paid for his mistake and chose to surrender.

Aizen's view of him has completely changed.

At first, he thought Sōya Kenpachi was the villain. Later, during the conversation between him and the teacher, his true purpose was revealed, and Aizen's view of him changed somewhat.

Now, not only has he changed, he even has some admiration for Sōya Kenpachi.

How can you not admire such a person?

"You really surprised me."

Arima also didn't expect that Sōya Kenpachi wouldn't even resist and was ready to surrender directly.

He sighed and said to Sōya Kenpachi: "Although you wanted to do something like that before, I admit that you are a very rule-abiding person."

"There are not many people like you left."

"If you surrender, based on your crime of destroying the balance between souls and the danger posed by your identity, you will probably be imprisoned in the lowest level of the underground prison."

"Since you have done something wrong, you have to pay the price. I don't care where you are imprisoned. "Sōya Kenpachi looked calm.

"But are you really willing to do so?" Arima seemed to be a little more angry.

"You abide by the rules so well, but not all nobles abide by the rules. Although your family died due to weakness back then, the culprits were those nobles."

"As long as these nobles still exist, even if the world is gone, it will still not be able to restore peace as you imagine."

(Bro don't give him weird ideas)

Sōya Kenpachi's eyes flashed with a strange color.

Aizen also looked at Arima in surprise.

The aristocrats are a group that Soul Society cannot avoid. They are the privileged class in the true sense.

Becoming a Shinigami from a commoner only represents oneself becoming a higher class.

However, above the Shinigami, there is also a group of nobles.

Even the Gotei 13 must be driven by the Central 46.

Naturally, the existence of such a privileged class will bring a lot of darkness to Soul Society.

However, the nobility has ruled Soul Society for a long time, and even Gotei 13 was established with their support. Even if Aizen sees this darkness, he is helpless.

The only thing that can bring some relief is that if a noble is found to have violated the laws of Soul Society, he can sue him to Central 46, which will judge such matters.

Of course, since Central 46 itself is also a noble, don't expect them to impose severe punishments on those who break the law.

Normally, all the Shinigami among the Seireitei are very secretive about the group of nobles and rarely mention it on their own initiative.

He didn't expect that his master would mention the nobility.

He even bluntly stated that the nobles were the culprits of the chaos.

"The nobles who framed my Azashiro family are all dead. What the other nobles did has nothing to do with me." Sōya Kenpachi's expression remained calm.

"But you want to protect the world and protect these innocent souls, don't you?" Arima continued, "Although you tried to transform Rukongai's souls into a war weapon, your original intention was to protect the world ."

"The so-called killing is actually to protect lives!"

"It's just because you don't know the truth of the world that you took the wrong path."

"Now that you know you were wrong, why don't you stay useful and do more for the stability of this world?"

"Atoning for one's sins is also a way of redemption."

"You don't have to choose to surrender!"
