As the light of Negación shrouded Aizen, it meant that everyone in Soul Society could no longer touch him. While being escorted by Menos Grande, Aizen performed another wave of the famous scene of his hair spray hand. He pretended to be aggressive in front of everyone, because he couldn't be touched, so he was very successful in that wave too.
Watching it face to face made Mazuru speechless for a while, if he had known about this he would have also gone to Hueco Mundo with Aizen, in that case, he could have taken the opportunity to install such a wave.
However, after learning about the existence of the Wandenreich, Aizen's plan finally changed a little. Although he still planned to merge with Hōgyoku to allow himself to break through the limit of shinigami and create the Ōken (King's Key) and use it to enter the Soul King Palace. However, the existence of Yhwach made him feel a little bit more defensive. In short, Yhwach, the ancestor of the quincies hidden in the dark, really made Aizen feel some uncertainties.
Therefore, even though he betrayed the Soul Society this time, he did not reveal all his trump cards.
Gin and Kaname followed him to leave because it could not be helped. After all, on the night of the soul disappearance 110 years ago, these two followed him openly. After he defects, Kisuke, Yoruichi and others will also be proved innocent indirectly. As long as Kisuke reveals a little bit about the situation of the past, it will be known that Gin and Kaname have problems with their allegiance.
So these two must defect with him.
But Mazuru was different, Mazuru hid himself very well, he did not participated in the soul disappearance incident, and even had a very good relationship with Yoruichi, so no one would suspect him.
He will stay in Soul Society this time, and will become a vital backup for Aizen.
Of course, Aizen didn't think he would need this backup very much.
No matter how strong Yhwach was, he believed that as long as he integrates with the Hōgyoku, after he breaks through the limit of shinigami, he will be invincible in front of anybody.
The turmoil quietly drew its curtain down, and the next thing was the finishing touches.
Because of Aizen's conspiracy, the Soul Society was in chaos earlier, but because Aizen took the initiative to reveal some truths before leaving, many people have new conclusions about many things.
At least the defection of Kisuke and Yoruichi along with the others 110 years ago had a new theory in the eyes of Yamamoto.
Therefore, the fact that Yoruichi was a defector was not pursued, and now she was still safely staying in the Soul Society, and no one had troubled her.
She first went back to Shihouin's house openly, mainly to see her younger brother Yushiro. When she rebelled against the Soul Society a 110 years ago, the position of head of the Shihouin family fell on her younger brother Shihouin Yushiro. Though it sounded nice to become the heir of a noble family but it was a bit bitter for Yushiro.
Sure enough, as soon as Yoruichi arrived at the Shihouin residence, her younger brother complained a lot.
Because of that, she didn't stayed at home for too long, and then went straight to the Third Division and came to Mazuru's place.
"What? Did you come to laugh at my situation?"
Mazuru looked at Yoruichi and said angrily.
Ichimaru Gin, the vice-captain of the Third Division, defected. As the former's captain, he was already considered a laughing stock.
Fortunately, Central 46 was slaughtered by Aizen, otherwise, he would definitely be summoned by Central 46 for questioning, but it is expected that after the new Central 46 is selected, the questioning will still be inevitable.
After all, for those nobles, as Gin's captain, it was impossible for Mazuru to be ignorant of what his vice-captain had done all these years, so he must be a target of suspicion.
But even if that day really came, Mazuru didn't care.
This time he continued to stay in the Soul Society, just to be able to gather as much power as possible before the Wandenreich launches an attack on Soul Society, so as to better deal with future turmoil.
According to the plot of the original book, it wasn't much time left before the thousand year blood war, in other words, it was impossible for him to stay in the Soul Society for too long.
Anyway, before he left, he would definitely not let go of those corrupt and inept nobles.
Yoruichi shook her head and said, "I came to say sorry to you, I didn't think that you really were unaware that Gin had a problem."
Earlier, when she came to Seireitei, she had a drink with Mazuru, at that time she expressed doubts about Mazuru's allegiance, even after Mazuru gave reasons for his actions, she didn't fully believed it.
It wasn't until Gin defected with Aizen this time, combined with Mazuru's "angry reaction", that she realized that she had wronged Mazuru.
(T.L Note: Not really)
"If I had told you about Gin's situation earlier when I left the Soul Society, maybe these things would not have happened." Yoruichi felt a little guilty.
"There are so many ifs, the deal is done and it is useless to say any more. Now let's think about how to deal with Aizen." Mazuru said, "Aizen took Kaname and Gin to Hueco Mundo, and Menos Grande used the light of Negación to take them away from Soul Society, I am afraid that he had already hooked up with Hueco Mundo from a long time ago."
"What is Hōgyoku, you and I both know, Aizen has it with him right now. With his character it's absolutely impossible that he won't do nothing."
Yoruichi also looked very serious.
Even if the turmoil in the Soul Society subsided temporarily, the existence of Aizen was indeed a huge threat for all of them.
But Yoruichi's serious expression didn't last long, she immediately looked at Mazuru with an ambiguous look, "You and Sui Feng seem to have built a good relationship after I left Soul Society back then."
"Can you tell me, till which stage have you reached?"
Yoruichi's face was full of thirst for gossip, she was very curious.
Mazuru smiled mysteriously, but did not responded to her question.
After dealing with Yoruichi, he returned late at night to deal with the team affairs alone.
After losing the tool man Gin, it was inevitable that he will have to deal with team affairs alone in the future.
Mazuru was thinking about whether to promote Kira Izuru, the current 3rd seat of the Third Division, to the position of vice-captain and make him the new tool man. After all, in the original book, he was Gin's vice-captain. He had undoubtedly the required capability and qualification to become a vice-captain.
After thinking about it for a while, just as Mazuru was getting ready to rest, there was a knock on the door.
Mazuru stood up and opened the door, letting the unexpected figure meet his eyes.
"Nanao?"
"Sure enough, you haven't gone to sleep yet." Nanao looked a little worried.
"I know that the matter of Gin made you feel really bad."
She came there at night just to comfort Mazuru.
