CHAPTER SEVEN

First Division Barracks, Captains' Meeting Area

Standing between the rows of captains and lieutenants that had gathered there and in front of Genryuusai, Urahara explained the details of the sword that he had brought there.

"Just now, we received news through Captains Kurotsuchi and Ukitake that the first substitute shinigami has made contact with Kurosaki Ichigo."

"The first substitute shinigami... that's Ginjo Kuugo!" As soon as Hitsugaya mentioned the name, the atmosphere in the room instantly became tense.

"Kurosaki Ichigo finally fulfilled his purpose of being bait..." Mayuri looked at Ukitake.

Ukitake remained silent and lowered his head with an extremely sad look on his face.

"Since he's already made contact with Ginjo Kuugo, then we don't have a moment to waste... Take that sword! Urahara Kisuke!"

Unohana opened her eyes wide at hearing these words. "Captain Commander, this is...!"

"...No matter what, we were all saved by Kurosaki Ichigo. This time it is our turn to save him. Even if it requires violating our own laws, allowing such a debt to go unpaid would be the Gotei 13's eternal shame!"

Genryuusai stepped forward.

"This is the Captain Commander's order! All captains and lieutenants of the Gotei 13 will add their reiatsu to this sword!" Genryuusai's commanding voice rang through the silent meeting area.

"...Even though I have received reports that many shinigami have already gone ahead and added their reiatsu without waiting for my order... I will not pursue this, only this one time."

It was only after that, that several people on the scene finally stopped holding their breath.

Mayuri stared at Urahara and ground his teeth so loudly that everyone present could hear him.

"Urahara Kisuke! You must definitely help Kurosaki Ichigo regain his shinigami powers!"

Urahara lifted his head and looked straight at Genryuusai. The two eyes that looked back at him really did display confidence in him.

"I obey. Definitely...!" As if keeping his tumultuous feelings under control, Urahara bowed deeply.

"This is the sword that Urahara prepared for you.

Thanks to it, I was able to transfer shinigami powers to you again...!"

End.
