Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321: Chapter 321: Power Is the Right to Rule

"I will immediately send someone to investigate the Kasumiōji Clan," Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto said solemnly. "Once the situation is clear, I will seek approval from the Central 46 Chambers to eliminate the traitor."

Hearing this, Masatsuki Aozaki frowned, clearly dissatisfied. "Old man, do we really need to go through all that trouble? Why not just go over there and cut him down?"

"Watch your tongue!" Yamamoto’s face darkened as he reprimanded him sternly. "When it comes to the great noble clans, caution is never excessive!"

Masatsuki Aozaki shrugged helplessly. This old man put way too much stock in nobility.

Then again, Yamamoto had lived for nearly three thousand years—his beliefs were deeply ingrained. Changing his mindset in a short time was impossible. Besides, modern societal reforms in the World of the Living had only taken place in the last few centuries. Expecting a stubborn old man like Yamamoto to suddenly embrace new ideas was unrealistic.

This matter was now in the old man’s hands. By the time they returned to Soul Society, everything should have settled.

With that in mind, Masatsuki Aozaki decided not to dwell on it any further.

A fight? A battle? _{fre/ew.ebnovel.c om}

At most, the Kasumiōji Clan had a few captain-level fighters, but that wasn’t enough to pique his interest. It had been a long time since he’d truly felt the thrill of a fierce battle.

Suddenly, Masatsuki Aozaki smacked his forehead, as if recalling something, and spoke into the communicator. "Oh, right—old man, keep an eye on those two newcomers you assigned to my squad."

Yamamoto frowned at that. "Is there a problem with them?"

He had personally arranged for those two to join the 11th Division. Had he misjudged them?

Masatsuki Aozaki explained, "Just the other day, Lieutenant Gin Ichimaru sent me a report."

"Not only have those two been stirring up trouble in the squad, but they also seem to have ties to the Kasumiōji Clan."

Yamamoto’s narrowed eyes opened slightly, his tone turning grave. "Are you certain?"

Masatsuki Aozaki chuckled. "If you don’t believe me, ask Gin. He’s got plenty of evidence—photos, videos, you name it."

"He should have everything you need."

"...I understand, Masatsuki. I leave the Kasumiōji Clan’s leader in your hands."

A hint of anger laced Yamamoto’s voice before the communicator screen went black.

The old man was clearly furious.

Masatsuki Aozaki smirked slightly, then handed the communicator to Nemu Kurotsuchi.

"Aozaki-sama, are we really staying in the World of the Living for a few more days?"

Kenryū waited until the conversation ended before asking, his tone laced with concern.

"What’s there to worry about?" Rurichiyo Kasumiōji suddenly leaped up and wrapped her arms around Masatsuki Aozaki’s neck, swaying excitedly. "Masatsuki is the strongest! The best Shinigami! He’s not afraid of those bad guys from Gyōkaku!"

Kenryū sighed in exasperation.

It wasn’t that he doubted Masatsuki Aozaki’s strength.

After all, the title of Kenpachi was only given to the strongest Shinigami. He might not surpass the Captain-Commander, but he was certainly far from weak.

Still, Rurichiyo was too important to them.

Even knowing how powerful Masatsuki Aozaki was, Kenryū couldn’t help but worry.

Kenryū remained silent for a moment before letting out a long sigh.

"Aozaki-sama, since you’re responsible for protecting the family head, what should we do?"

Masatsuki Aozaki glanced out the window. The sky had darkened completely, and night had settled over the city. Taking Nemu Kurotsuchi’s hand, he spoke with a serious expression.

"It’s late. Get some sleep."

"This..."

Kenryū was momentarily speechless. Meeting Masatsuki Aozaki’s serious gaze, he wasn’t sure what to say. After a brief pause, he spoke again.

"Then, Aozaki-sama, Lieutenant Nemu, and the family head should rest first. Enryū and I will set up the barrier."

Rurichiyo Kasumiōji’s eyes lit up.

"I want to sleep with Masatsuki!"

With a shout, she ran toward Masatsuki Aozaki, her short legs moving as fast as they could.

"Not happening. I have something important to do tonight. No time to play with you."

Masatsuki Aozaki placed a hand on her head and ruffled her hair.

"What?! You promised to play with me! Masatsuki, you liar!"

Rurichiyo pouted in protest.

Something important?

Kenryū and Enryū exchanged glances, their expressions brightening.

It seemed Aozaki-sama had already planned how to protect the young lady.

Just moments ago, they thought he was trying to slack off.

They had completely misjudged him...
