Death god, my Zanpakuto is a bit trendy

Volume 1: 051, Why do birds fly?

South Rukong Street, at the junction of the 4th and 5th wards.

"Uh-huh."

Haruto came here to find Byakuya at the agreed time to make plans.

But...

"We agreed to do it together?"

When he arrived, Haruto had already bypassed several groups of Shinigami from the Gotei 13 team heading in the same direction as him.

Coupled with the soaring fire at the destination——

"You're too slow, okay."

Byakuya patted his butt and sat down from the ground to hand it over.

"I didn't expect them to be so careless..."

"Don't worry, if we agree to split it equally, we won't miss you."

Byakuya pointed at the large and small boxes placed near the bushes not far away.

"Here."

"Everything is here."

Haruto rolled his eyes at Byakuya.

"..."

This guy definitely didn't fight well enough last time, so he fooled himself into taking action alone. As for the things seized from the auction, except for the mission requirements, he really didn't care about anything else.

"Clang."

Haruto threw the two Zanpakutos he held between them.

"My spoils here."

"...What about that one?"

Byakuya pointed curiously at the extra Zanpakutō hanging from Haruto's waist.

"This is Munechika's sword."

After Byakuya hesitated for two seconds, he asked Haruto:

"Killed?"

"It shouldn't be. Corpses are not as valuable as living people. Although it is a good thing for us, but -"

Although I knew that there was such a classmate, because the relationship with him was too far away, I was used to seeing Byakuya parting from life and death and didn't have any special emotions.

"What are you talking about?"

Haruto interrupted Byakuya.

"One of those two knives belonged to the attacker."

"..."

Byakuya was obviously stuck for a moment:

"Vice captain level?"

The Kuchiki family’s information will not go wrong in this kind of place:

Among the opponents Byakuya needs to face in the auction, there is the deputy captain-level Shinigami - although it is not the same family as the one who hosted the auction last time, the vice-captain level is almost the default condition - and Haruto's Among the attackers who need to be dealt with, there are naturally Death Gods of the same level.

Otherwise, there is no need to ask Haruto to help with this matter.

"Vice Captain level."

Haruto nodded.

"How did you kill him?"

Byakuya is quite familiar with Haruto's fighting ability.

Although the Lingwei level is not yet at the fifth level, it is not difficult to tangle with the deputy captain level with the help of ghost skills.

"This is a dead soldier trained by a superior noble. He can't just stand there and let you chop him with seven or eight swords with the Zhanhua Wheel, right?"

A broken path with a serial number of 70 or above can threaten the vice-captain level, but it will take a certain number of times to actually kill the opponent.

"His Zanpakuto has no effect on me."

Haruto explained:

"And this guy's willpower is not very strong, so he ate one of my complete Ice Fang Zhenglan."

"It would have taken a lot of effort."

"..."

This time it was Byakuya who rolled his eyes at Haruto.

"I'm really unaware."

"You are obviously taking advantage of Xianghe. The existence of Bingya Zhenglan is not a secret to these superior nobles."

"He probably thought you were Xianghe, and he lost his soul for a moment."

As the rising star of the Kuchiki family, Hibiki's captain-level combat prowess has long been obvious to the nobles.

Haruto waved his hand and retorted:

"That's why I say he is not strong-willed."

When facing a strong person, one needs to be careful and cautious, rather than being frightened into losing the will to fight.

Byakuya took over the conversation:

"Then what?"

"Are you going to hand over this Zanpakutō to the Gotei 13? How will you explain the process then? You can't say you picked it up on the roadside, right?"

After liberation, the ownerless Zanpakutō is a treasure worth at least dozens of gold that even mid-level nobles will covet.

"No."

Haruto shook his head and said:

"I'm going to give it to Shuzhu."

"......who?"

A question mark appeared on Byakuya's head.

"Souchika's girlfriend."

"..."

Byakuya's confused expression revealed his mental age: for Byakuya, who has not even developed a love interest, it is obviously too early to have a relationship between a man and a woman; in his eyes, classmates are basically divided into capable There are two parts: those that can be beaten and those that cannot be beaten... Even among the latter, Kuzume and Izumi are at the bottom. It is normal not to remember.

"Which noble family is she a transfer student from?"

After all, he used to hang around Haruto a lot, and Byakuya still had some understanding of Munechika, so his starting point was naturally from this aspect.

"No, a classmate from Class 2."

Haruto shook his head as always.

"Then she shouldn't be able to keep the sword... Wait, you haven't said how Mikazuki Munechika died?"

The two of them talked about each other for a long time, but they got sidetracked at some point.

"I killed him."

"...You are quite nice."

It was really hard for Byakuya to control his desire to complain about Haruto who answered so neatly.

"I am walking mercy."

"vomit!"

I really couldn't hold it back this time.

certainly.

What Byakuya just said was more than just a rant.

If he were put in Haruto's position, he would probably make the same choice.

However, if Mr. Kuchiki were to evaluate him, no matter how he thought about it, he would only give the two of them a failing evaluation:

Munechika's value has not been squeezed out at all, and the Kuchiki family can definitely train him into a pawn who lives for revenge.

"...Okay, okay, that's the end of the topic. This knife is indeed for counting beads."

"You two have a grudge?"

"There might have been a little beef in the past."

"When did you become so petty?"

"Isn't it a consensus on the physical level that my eyes are small?"

"...You know that's not what I meant."

Within three rounds, Byakuya was defeated in the daily verbal confrontation.

"All right."

Haruto shrugged.

"After all, the surface of my body is not covered with skin but with etiquette."

Haruto borrowed the famous saying (one) from the bloody battle MVP.

"As Munechika's last wish before his death, no matter how unreasonable it is, I will always try my best to help."

Haruto glanced at Munechika's rope cutting.

"As for whether Shuzhu and Quan can withstand this overwhelming wealth..."

"That's not something I should think about."

————

A few minutes later.

All the gains of the two of them during this trip were collected by Byakuya in the bounding box.

"These things will be settled by someone when I get home. I'll keep the money at your place first... If it's not enough, I'll replenish it for you next time I go out."

The large items were handed over to Byakuya, and as for the collected money, Haruto put it into his pocket without any courtesy——

The already abundant private money can now be spent even more.

"no problem."

Haruto nodded in agreement.

He actually didn't care who gained and who lost. After all, being able to make money with the Kuchiki family was an opportunity that many nobles could not wait for in their lifetime.

certainly.

The prerequisite is to have such strength.

Sixth-level spirit power, this level of death god Kuchiki family can grab a lot, even the stronger vice-captain can make up their hands.

The reason why Haruto is involved is mainly because the apparent power of the Kuchiki family is closely watched by the Tsunayashiro family, who are stronger than them. Because of this, the Kuchiki family can not use their trump cards. Next, create the illusion that no one is available to them, allowing Byakuya and Haruto to become this rare weapon.

Was able to successfully win the auction where security was lax.

At the same time, it is also the best stage to test Byakuya's recent training achievements, as well as the loyalty and combat power of Haruto, his "best friend".

Now it seems--

"correct."

Byakuya swept the stacked battlefield clean.
