Ginrei listened to Mazuru's narration, and sighed. Perhaps it was because Kuchiki Koga was defeated by Mazuru back then, or maybe Mazuru's Zanpakuto seemed to have some kind of restraintive baility against Koga's Muramasa, so he didn't hide anything either.
"Kuchiki Koga is indeed not dead, but rather he was sealed by me and head-captain together."
"So that's really the case."
Mazuru replied without any surprise.
On the other side, Byakuya and Sojun, who knew the secret from a long time ago also didn't have any change in expressions.
Ginrei continued, "This matter is a family matter of my Kuchiki family. It is precisely because of my soft-heartedness that Seireitei is in chaos today. Captain Mazuru, don't worry, I have decided to personally take action and get rid of him once and for all."
"As long as Koga dies, his Zanpakuto will lose its support. After all, no matter how powerful Muramasa is, it will definitely perish with its master's death."
"Grandfather…"
Byakuya's complexion had slight changes hearing this.
Mazuru said to Ginrei, "Captain Ginrei, why do you need to do so? You have already retired, just live a retired life honestly, and leave the matter of Kuchiki Koga to Byakuya and me."
"From the perspective of the Kuchiki family, Byakuya is the current head of the Kuchiki family, and has the obligation to solve the troubles caused by the Kuchiki family. From the perspective of the Seireitei, Muramas is making trouble among the Seireitei and naturally as a captain of Gotei 13, I am obliged to protect Seireitei. Besides, I also fought against Koga and Muramasa back then, and thus, I am familiar with them."
"So, this time, I naturally can't stay out of it."
Ginrei fell silent, "Captain Mazuru, you are still as eloquent as ever."
After all, they had a lot of meetings back then, Mazuru may be seen differently by everyone, but in the eyes of Ginrei, Mazuru was indeed eloquent.
"So, Captain Ginrei, where exactly was Koga sealed by you and head-captain?"
Before Ginrei could answer, Mazuru continued, "Earlier, the head-captain was attacked and has gone missing for now. If it is as I think it is, then it also may be the work of Muramasa."
"He wants to get the information about the place where Koga is sealed by the head-captain."
Ginrei's complexion had a change immediately.
Then, he told the location of the place where Koga was sealed and the way to open the seal.
…
Seireitei.
Shunsui was being hunted down by Katen Kyōkotsu, no, it cannot be said to be hunted down, but forced to play games with them. Of course, Katen Kyōkotsu's game were not so fun, if one is not careful, one's life will be in danger.
In the past, Shunsui used Katen Kyōkotsu's ability to deal with his enemies and never even thought that one day he would had to experience the feeling of being Katen Kyōkotsu's enemy.
"It's really not fun."
Shunsui sighed, and he couldn't help but think of the strange pale man he met on the road earlier.
'Is it because of him that the Zanpakuto suddenly materialized and came to reality to attack their masters?'
Although he looked incongruous on the outside, Shunsui was actually a very delicate person, and he immediately had a guess in his heart.
At this moment, a figure quickly came to his vicinity, and then activated Bankai without the slightest hesitation.
"Bankai!"
"Daiguren Hyōrinmaru!"
A terrifying reiatsu erupted instantly from Toshiro's body, and a pair of ice wings appeared behind his back, allowing him to fly even in an environment with a high concentration of spiritual particles like Seireitei.
Then, he waved the Zanpakuto in his hand.
"Sennen Hyōrō (Thousand Years' Ice Prison)!"
Dozens of icicles emerged at the same time, freezing the Katen, the one with the mature figure, who was following behind Shunsui.
"Captain Kyoraku, are you okay?" Toshiro came to Shunsui and asked.
Shunsui shook his head and said, "I'm fine, it looks like your troubles have also been resolved, Captain Hitsugaya?"
Toshiro responded, "Well, with the help of my sensei, I regained control over Hyōrinmaru."
Immediately, he explained to Shunsui about Muramasa and Muramasa's ability, and also let Shunsui know the whole story.
"I see, so that's how it is. I was wondering, how could Zanpakuto suddenly started materializing into reality." Shunsui had answers to his doubts. Suddenly he said to Toshiro, "Be careful!"
Toshiro's heart trembled, and he swung his sword immediately.
Immediately Guncho Tsurara (Icicle Flock) was casted, and countless ice crystals flew out like a group of birds, forcing a petite figure back.
Looking at this petite figure, Shunsui explained, "I forgot to tell you, my Zanpakuto is double sword, so after materialization, there will be two materialized figures. The one you frozen earlier is called Katen, and this one is Kyōkotsu."
"However, if there is only Kyōkotsu left, I can handle it by myself."
Through Toshiro's narration, Shunsui already knew the whole story and how to deal with the materialized and rebellious Zanpakuto. He only needed to defeat them again, just like he did when unlocking his Bankai, and let them submit to him.
Immediately, Shunsui defeated Kyōkotsu first, and then went to deal with Katen who was frozen by Toshiro with the Sennen Hyōrō (Thousand Years' Ice Prison), and regained control over Katen Kyōkotsu.
Putting Katen Kyōkotsu in their sheaths, Shunsui asked Toshiro, "Where's brother Mazuru?"
"After helping me to deal with Hyōrinmaru, sensei asked me to help you, and he left with Captain Sui-Feng. He said he was going to Kuchiki house."
"Is he going to the Kuchiki's house?"
Shunsui was not surprised, because in the story told to him by Toshiro, it was well-mentioned that Muramasa's master was Kuchiki Koga.
Therefore, it was not surprising that Mazuru would go to Kuchiki's house.
"Brother Mazuru has gone to Kuchiki house, it seems that we have a busy schedule ahead of us."
Although Shunsui was usually lazy, he was still very reliable at critical moments. He felt the reiatsu circulating in Seireitei, and naturally knew that in present, the case of Zanpakuto materializing into reality and attacking its master was definitely not limited to Hyōrinmaru and Katen Kyōkotsu.
'I am afraid there are still many Zanpakuto who have rebelled under Muramasa's influence.'
'In addition, the disappearance of old man Yama may also have something to do with Muramasa!'
At this moment, he and Toshiro, as the only captains who had suppressed their rebellious Zanpakuto, were obliged to resolve the chaos within the Seireitei and help the shinigami reconquer their Zanpakuto.
