Fourth Division.
Unohana looked at the huge one-eyed creature that appeared in front of her, her squinted eyes first opened and then closed slightly. Immediately, she drew her sword, and a powerful slash swept out, even if this huge one-eyed creature was the embodiment of her own Zanpakuto, there was no intention of holding back in her slash.
The truth of the matter had been made very clear.
Their Zanpakuto were bewitched by a Zanpakuto named Muramasa, and they manifested into reality and rebelled. If they wanted to recover them, they needed to be defeated again.
Defeating her traitorous Zanpakuto was not difficult for Unohana.
Her Zanpakuto, for her, was just existing to allow her to fight more happily, even without Zanpakuto, her strength would not have much of an impact, after all, most of her strength was based on her honed swordmanship.
After several slashes, the huge one-eyed creature disappeared.
Unohana's Zanpakuto was also restored to its original state.
Although she knew that the Seireitei was in chaos, she didn't intend to help the rest of the shinigami to conquer their Zanpakuto. After all, she was just "an ordinary medical squad captain and not good at fighting".
On the contrary, if a shinigami was injured, she could help to heal the injury.
…
Twelfth Division.
As soon as Mayuri's Zanpakuto materialized into reality and had the intention of betrayal, it triggered Mayuri's backhand left in the Zanpakuto, and it blew himself up directly, and then, then there was no more.
As a veritable mad scientist, Mayuri not only modified his own body, but even his own Zanpakuto.
Especially after the earlier invasion of Ryoka when he was easily defeated by Mazuru, which made Mayuri extremely angry, so, after that time, he tried to carry out a deeper transformation of his Zanpakuto, not just transforming the poison of his Zanpakuto, but he wanted to transform its Bankai too.
But not all captains were able to easily deal with their rebellious Zanpakuto.
After the Tenth Division Captain Hitsugaya Toshiro, the Eighth Division Captain Kyoraku Shunsui, the Fourth Division Captain Retsu Unohana, and the Twelfth Division Captain Kurotsuchi Mayuri successively recovered their rebellious Zanpakuto.
The Zanpakuto of the other captains were already had rebelled one after another, but they did not fight their master immediately after the rebellion, instead they followed the materialized Zanpakuto named Muramasa and left.
Meanwhile, after Mazuru explained the whole story clearly, he brought Byakuya and Sui Feng to the First Division.
In the team building of the First Division, Shusuke and Sasakibe were still staying there.
It seemed that because Muramasa had been there before and induced Ryūjin Jakka to betray the head-captain, Sasakibe and Shusuke who came there later were able to avoid getting their Zanpakuto getting bewitched, and thus Zanpakuto in their hands never rebelled.
"Thank you for the constant help Captain Mazuru!"
Sasakibe greeted Mazuru, and Shusuke also quickly approached, "Is there still no news about the whereabouts about head-captain yet?"
It was a really strange situation, Yamamoto was obviously Shusuke's father-killing enemy, but after learning the truth about that incident, having fought against the head-captain, knowing about his father's character and with the lessons of the head-captain, and after getting rid of Kumoi Gyokaku and others, Shusuke had become one of the most loyal supporters of Yamamoto.
This time, after he sensed that something happened in the First Division, he rushed there almost immediately. When Mazuru asked the available captains to go out to support the other captains, he insisted on staying in the First Division, wanting to find clues to find the whereabouts of the head-captain.
Mazuru shook his head and said, "I don't know the whereabouts of the head-captain. I came to the First Division at this time because I want the vice-captain Sasakibe to hold a captain meeting."
He looked at Chojiro, "I have already explained the general cause of this turmoil with the help of Tenteikūra, but there are still some details that need to be discussed in front of all the captains."
Sasakibe also acted immediately, after all he knew the seriousness of the current matter.
After the previous Tenteikūra, the voice of summoning resounded throughout the Seireitei again, and soon a message passed through the Seireitei stating that as long as there was no battle that they were participating in currently, the captains and vice-captains should rush towards the head room of the First Division.
Sui Feng, Mazuru, Unohana, Shusuke, Byakuya, Sajin, Shunsui, Kaein, Toshiro, Mayuri, Jushiro, and their respective vice-captains were present for the meeting, so to speak, except for the missing head-captain , and Zaraki Kenpachi who didn't came for some reason, basically all the captains had come.
"... and that's pretty much the way it is."
Mazuru raised his head and talked about Muramasa and Kuchiki Koga in front of everyone. After he finished speaking, Byakuya also came to explain further details.
After Byakuya finished speaking, Mazuru said to the captains, "I don't know exactly how many Zanpakuto Muramasa has bewitched, but judging from the situation explained by the captains… In addition to the Zanpakuto who were subdued on the spot, some Zanpakuto did not immediately fight with their masters after being bewitched by Muramasa, but instead left with him."
"I've already learned about Muramasa's purpose from Captain Ginrei."
"Leave his affairs to me and Byakuya, as for the captains, the order of Seireitei depends on you to maintain."
"Captain Mazuru, don't worry." Kaein spoke first. His Zanpakuto was also bewitched by Muramasa and rebelled, but instead of turning against his master, it left with Muramasa.
The rest of the captains, except for Mayuri who didn't get along well with Mazuru, all agreed readily.
Although Mazuru explained the cause of the turmoil and Muramasa's ability in Tenteikūra before, Tenteikūra was only used for brief communications after all. So after a brief meeting face-to-face, their respective responsibilities were assigned immediately.
Then, the captains left the First Division, returned to their respective teams, and started the corresponding tasks.
Soon, the Zanpakuto rebellion within Seireitei gradually subsided under the joint efforts of Gotei 13.
Muramasa's ability was indeed extraordinary, but in the final analysis, he had no master and had lost the support of his master's reiatsu. It was obviously impossible to make all the Zanpakuto rebel by relying on his own strength. In the beginning, because of the unequal information, although there was a great turmoil, but after his information was relayed by Mazuru to all the captains and everyone knew about Muramasa's ability, they knew how to deal with this turmoil most efficiently.
Although some Zanpakuto were very capable, shinigami still had strong Kidō in addition to Zanpakuto. Maybe those shinigami alone relying on it might not be their Zanpakuto's opponent, but it was not difficult for several shinigami to combine Kidō to suppress the rebellious Zanpakuto.
Not to mention, there were still many captains who had personally taken action to quell the unrest.
