169 Chapter 169: The Confused Nemu

'Someone asked you to take care of us?'

Uryuu was taken aback.

Except for what Yoruichi said that Mazuru used to be the vice-captain of the Thirteenth squad and thus had some relationship with Rukia, they had no connection with Mazuru before this.

So Uryuu looked at Mazuru in bewilderment, Mazuru didn't explain much about it, and continued, "With your strength, it is wishful thinking to rescue Kuchiki Rukia, and there are even more powerful shinigamis ahead waiting for you, so I advise you to give up."

Uryuu showed a gleam of determination, "No matter how difficult it is, we must rescue Kuchiki-san."

"Well, you guys are courageous, I will give you that."

Mazuru praised and didn't continued to try to make them give up.

He lowered his head, swung his Zanpakuto again, and waved it at the shinigami of the Eleventh Division who was lying on the ground. The shinigami was immediately relieved of the impact of Ashisogi Jizō, and then stood up. The Eleventh Division's shinigami looked at Mazuru and felt a little nervous. He wasn't that nervous at first, but after witnessing Mazuru defeating Mayuri without any room to fight back, he was understandably nervous. Mazuru's strength deeply reflected in his heart after witnessing it first-hand and the Eleventh Division has always respected the strong.

"You should have almost recovered. If there is nothing else, I will leave them to you."

Mazuru said to the shinigami, then turned around and left from there with Nemu.

The shinigami of the Eleventh Division was also taken aback, and he looked at Uryuu who was looking at him with some vigilance. But after looking at Orihime, he said, "Anyway, you are also my savior, if… if you don't mind, you guys come to the Eleventh Division with me first."

Uryuu originally wanted to go to the Repentance Palace to rescue Rukia, but because of what happened with Mayuri, he deeply felt the power of the Soul Society and understood that it was really not that easy to rescue Rukia.

Following that shinigami to the Eleventh Division was tantamount to throwing himself into the shinigami's net, but thinking that this was also what Mazuru, their savior told, he finally chose to follow that shinigami to the Eleventh Division

After all, if Mazuru really wanted to catch him and Inoue, he could have captured them easily before, and there was no need to help them defeat Mayuri.

Uryuu and Orihime followed the shinigami to the direction of the Eleventh Division.

On the other side, Mazuru took the Nemu and went to another place.

"Why do you want to save me?"

Nemu was a little puzzled, obviously the other party could kill her, but in the end he wanted to save her.

"The question that should be asked is, why do you want to help Kurotsuchi Mayuri at the expense of your own life?" Mazuru did not respond to Nemu's question, but asked her back.

Nemu was taken aback for a moment, and she replied in a confused manner, "I don't know why, but my life was given by Mayuri-sama, so I should obey his orders."

"Even if it means death?"

Nemu was silent, but the answer was already quite evident by her expression.

"I know a little bit about you, but have you ever thought that what Mayuri actually needed when he created you was not a dead man or a disposable tool." Mazuru looked at Nemu and said slowly.

"?"

Nemu was somewhat unable to understand that sentence.

"If he had just created a dead man or a disposable tool, why did he have to do so many experiments and expend so much effort to create you, wouldn't it be more convenient to just find a shinigami?"

"In addition, he also gave you a name."

"Although you were created by him, he wants you to be able to give birth to your own ideas, your own thoughts."

"Give birth to ideas on my own?" Nemu was a little dazed, "Is this what Mayuri-sama expects of me?"

Sōkyoku Hill, the highest place in the entire Seireitei, stands on top of it was the Sōkyoku Spear, which is used to carry out the death penalty for the most heinous criminals in the Soul Society.

When a shinigami was found guilty by the Central 46 of very heinous crimes, the shinigami will be placed on the execution platform, and then the spear of Sōkyoku will penetrate the shinigami's body in the form of its true form, the Kikōō (Blaze Fledgling King; Firebird King).

From the appearance, it has the shape of a huge golden phoenix, each of its attacks is equivalent to the destructive power of a million Zanpakutō, enough to completely destroy the soul of the sinners.

But in fact, due to the existence of hell, Seireitei seldom use this kind of brutal capital punishment. After all, shinigami have always claimed to maintain the balance rather than destroy.

So for ordinary shinigami, Sōkyoku Hill was a place to stay away from in the Soul Society, and no one wants to approach it at ordinary times.

But in the eyes of some daring shinigamis, the deserted hill of Sōkyoku happened to be their perfect secret training ground.

Many years ago, Kisuke and Yoruichi secretly opened up a training ground under the hill of Sōkyoku, where they trained and achieved bankai successively. Later, Mazuru also achieved his bankai there. After Yoruichi and Kisuke left the Soul Society, Mazuru took Sui Feng to train there for a long time.

*Swoosh*

Just after a slight sound of something breaking through the air, a cross-shaped black hole was torn out in the space of the Sōkyoku Hill underground training ground, and Yoruichi entered there with Ichigo.

After coming there, Yoruichi looked at the surrounding environment first, and sighed a little, "Really, it has been damaged so badly here and I don't even know how to repair it."

As far as she could see, the place seemed to have been destroyed after a fierce fight.

"Fortunately, the enchantment at the entrance has not been changed, so this training ground can still be used."

Then, she took out the Tenshinatai that she had prepared early in the morning, and began to teach Ichigo how to achieve his bankai.

When Mazuru and Nemu separated and were about to go back to their respective squad barracks, they felt two familiar reiatsu colliding.

In addition to these two strong reiatsu, there was also a slightly weaker reiatsu.

Mazuru immediately realized what was going on.

'It's really sad. Being played around by Aizen...'

Even if it hadn't seen the situation, he can guess what happened. It must be that Momo escaped from prison and wanted to avenge Aizen, so she found one of Aizen's murderers, Gin and tried to avenge Aizen.

When Toshiro found out that Momo had escaped from prison, he rushed over and saw Momo attacking Gin, and then, for the sake of his childhood friend, he had to enter the fight too.

Mazuru's thought flashed, and then he immediately headed towards the place where the battle was taking place.
