The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel-Chapter 284: Into the shadows
Chapter 284: Into the shadows
(Ryoto's pov)
A week has passed since the family reunited. In that time all my children were training Ichigo in turns. Let's just say that he didn't enjoy his spars with Yukima. She is combination of me and her mother after all. Also it was a wake up call for the young invader that all people that I brought were more powerful than him but it also was a great motivator.
On the side note Yoruichi was relieved of her debt to my other lovers. Not for free though. She will be forced to get drunk when everything calms down and while Yoruichi hates that but she would hate to pay up even more.
I'm not going to lie, I'm going to enjoy it more than I should. She is just so cute and meak when drunk. This kind of contrast is adorable, especially on someone like Yoruichi.
But let's focus on something more important. I'm going to visit Rukia. She is going to be transferred to the big white tower today that name I don't care to remember.
My plan is to appease some of the girl's worries. I should do that earlier but I hoped for Bya-chan to do that before me. It would be far more optimal but I can't do anything with that.
*Slam*
I opened the door to the room with a jail cell where Rukia was being kept.
"Good morning Rukia-chan. Guess who it is~"
"Oji-san!?- I mean, Captain Ryoto? What do I owe the pleasure?" Rukia was flabbergasted at first but quickly composed herself and became a lot more formal. She may not be related to Byakuya but he rubbed on her mote than he realised.
"Come on, you don't don't need to be so formal with me. Call me Oji-san like you used to. I'm not going to get angry because you call me that. What am I going to do? Arrest you?"
My little joke manged to get a smile from the prisoner.
"See, so you still can smile. Just because everyone wants to kill you doesn't mean it's the end of the world. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. The number of people that were after my life is larger than you think. At one point I thought my father-in-law tried to end my life and it felt like it at some point.
The point is that I'm still alive and kicking because I'm stubborn so stop mopping around and trust in your friends to save you. Speaking of which remember that kid that I stabbed? He survived and got here somehow. He is currently traning and will probably save you."
That got a reaction from her.
"What!? That idiot! I sacrificed myself, got myself arrested so he would be left talons and he just gets here and spit on my resolve!"
Looks like someone really needed to vent.
"Yeah, he is an idiot. His whole plan included defeating everyone in his way and kidnapping you."
"That sounds like him... Wait, how do you know that?" She asked realising that I had some exclusive info.
"Who do you think is helping him train? Besides I would feel bad letting the kid die after I let him live. I still need to talk with Byakuya. He is being stupid again and if it doesn't work I'll use your public execution as his social execution... If you don't mind of course."
"...Not like I can stop you." She deadpaned.
"I mean... you can... you just need to escape the prison and avoid being executed."
Rukia kept staring at me with cold eyes for the rest of my visit but I feel like I achieved my goal.
(Aizen's pov)
What an interesting development. Captain Ryoto Yuuki is truly an interesting subject. He manged to discover something almost as fast as I did which is impressive.
I believed that after failing to go through the gate Ichigo Kurosaki together with his friends would use Shiba's canon to break through the barrier surrounding Sereitei but Kaien Shiba is a spontaneous individual and he must have come to his sister for some reason at the same time the group of invaders did and seeing opportunity he sneaked them inside.
Truly, you can't underestimate Shibas being unpredictable, just like 15 years ago I re-learned this lesson.
Thankfully I was cautious enough to release some camera flies to observe anything abnormal.
This whole incident is not as ideal as I planned but isn't a setback to my plan whatsoever. Mostly it wouldn't allow me to create more chaos to divide Soul Society to different oppositions.
The original plan was to fake my own death to create 4 groups.
These who believe that someone inside is a traitor, I would make Akio an obvious suspect and tell him that directly. It's cute how much he tries to hide that he knows my true nature, although I must admit that he slightly surprised me that he realised this much earlier than I anticipated.
The second group would believe that Ryouka were the one that this and actively tried to hunt them.
Third would be on neither side but all the chaos would affect them in some way.
And lastly is the Yuuki family. I am of belief that Ryoto Yuuki is aware of my plan to some degree and in extention so does the rest of his family. He will move independently and will be the most interesting of the bunch.
Now while I can still go through my plan it won't create as much confusion and havoc as it originally would.
There goes my small fun on the side.
In the end there isn't need to change my plans for now. No one knows what future holds but I will be prepared for it, as always.
(3rd's pov)
Akio was ready. He prepared himself and created as many safety nets as he possibly could. What he is going to do should be relatively safe but he already learned that one can never be too careful.
"Before we start let's go over everything one last time." Akio said to the gathered group which included all of his siblings. "Four of us will go into this mysterious dimension while one will stay behind in case of emergency.
If everything goes as planned the one left behind will not need to do anything because I set up a timer for our return so we should be fine but if for some reason we need to return early I prepared communication devices for everyone. It also will come in handy if we separate for some reason but we should avoid it at any cost possible. Afterall we will be in the unknown territory with unknown dangers.
I want to stress out that when I say dangers I am serious. I was able to detect some Reishi activity. They weren't huge but the most dangerous enemy is one that isn't easily detectable so be prepared to escape and only fight if necessary.
Gin, you are the one left behind. If we go radio silent for 5 minutes I want you to force our return by pushing this button." Akio pointed at one of many buttons on his console. "For the reason I chose you Gin is because I am needed there to gather data, Yukima won't allow to be left here and would be bored, Masaru-nii is needed for his firepower and I don't trust Rangiku enough to not get drunk and forget her role."
"Hey!"
"With that said I think we went through most important points but I want to remind everyone to be at their toes at all times there."
Akio stressed his point about his cautionsness once more. Even though it was his plan to begun with, the addition of his siblings made him a bit more paranoid. It was knew thing to risk his own life but to risk his family's was another matter all together.
"Now let's end all this talk. Its time for action!" Yukima bumped her fist together with anticipation for a fight or just anticipation for a plan progressing. With her it was never a sure thing.
It was time to enter unknown dimension.
