Chapter 123: Byakuya's Wedding

"I thought you would choose to return to the Eleventh Division."

In the Third Division, Mazuru looked at Ashido a little surprised after returning from the First Division.

Ashido shook his head and said, "Kenpachi Kuruyashiki and Gosuke are both dead, and there is nothing worthy of my nostalgia in the Eleventh Division."

"What about becoming a captain? With your strength, if I write a recommendation letter, you should be able to pass the captain's assessment."

"The captain position of the Seventh Division and the Ninth Division are still vacant."

Mazuru asked Ashido again.

Ashido showed a complicated expression on his face, "Captain?"

If it was him who had never been on the expedition many years ago, he would certainly want to be a captain of Gotei 13. But now, after going through so much, he is no longer the man he used to be.

"As a captain, in addition to protecting the stability of the Soul Society, one also has to take the lead in protecting the members behind him. I'm not sure if I can protect the others well." Ashido said in a deep voice.

"Then which division have you decided to go to?"

Ashido said in a deep voice, "Thirteenth Division."

"Captain Jushiro was already a captain of Gotei 13 in my time. He is an excellent person, and the Thirteenth division is the purification team who has been fighting against the hollows in the present world all year round."

"The purpose of my expedition to Hueco Mundo with my teammates was for the stability of the Soul Society and the present world."

"Now, Hueco Mundo doesn't need me anymore, but the world of the living is different. For the Seireitei which has undergone great changes, I'm afraid they don't have much man-power to take care of the present world very well. Moreover, I remember you said that the Urahara Kisuke, who caused Seireitei to lose more than half of its captains by himself also have escaped in the world of living."

Mazuru nodded, "Since you have made up your mind, I will go and talk to Captain Jushiro."

"Thinking about it, it's quite a coincidence. Before I came to the Third Division, I was also in the Thirteenth Division."

Ashido was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's really a coincidence."

Ashido's matter was nothing more than an insignificant matter to the entire Seireitei.

As for the fact that shinigami were sent on an expedition against Hueco Mundo during the Kenpachi Kuruyashiki's period, not many people know about it in Gotei 13 today. Many young shinigami only heard about Kenpachi Kuruyashiki in some records.

It was another matter, which really attracted the attention of many shinigami from Gotei 13.

The wedding of the heir of the Kuchiki family, Kuchiki Byakuya!

Earlier, when Byakuya was about to marry a commoner woman from Rukongai, there was a lot of turmoil. The noble group headed by the Tsunayashiro family collectively accused the Kuchiki family of undermining the dignity of the nobility. It once embarrassed the Kuchiki family, but later, because what Tokinada did to his own wife was widely circulated, causing the Tsunayashiro family to fall into the hole they dug themselves. Even more so Tokinada went on and slaughtered the whole Tsunayashiro family. So, the matter of Byakuya marrying a commoner woman was suppressed.

Now, the two captains who had gone to Hueco Mundo to hunt down Tokinada have returned. The murderer who slaughtered the Tsunayashiro family has been executed, and the storm of the Tsunayashiro family's annihilation has gradually dissipated.

Moreover, with the support of Central 46, they found a little girl with the blood of the Tsunayashiro family and re-established the Tsunayashiro family, but everyone knows that the Tsunayashiro family is now nothing more than an empty shell of its previous self as one of the four great nobles, which is essentially a puppet family supported by Central 46 in order to keep the names of the four great nobles still in existence, so as to ensure the authority of the nobles.

After Yoruichi defected, the Shihouin family fell into a bad situation, and the Tsunayashiro family also fell into a slump.

The fourth noble family, the Ise family is still keeping a low profile.

So despite the Kuchiki family not doing anything, their power increased much more than before.

At this time, Byakuya planned to hold his wedding Hisana, which did not cause any twists and turns.

In fact, after the Tsunayashiro family was slaughtered, Byakuya could have married Hisana, but for some reason, he chose to postpone the wedding date.

Despite being a big event for the Kuchiki family, Byakuya's wedding is not very grand.

It's not that Kuchiki Ginrei didn't want to make it grand, but it was Byakuya's suggestion to not invite many people to his wedding.

Apart from the several captains of Gotei 13, and the people brought by those captains, there are only the members of the Kuchiki family present.

None of those nobles, big or small, were invited.

Today's Byakuya is wearing a gorgeous aristocratic attire, and Hisana, who was from the Rukongai, has also been dressed up. She looks very gentle, obviously she looks very very similar to Rukia Kuchiki, but it was two completely different temperaments according to Mazuru's memory.

"Sensei, Captain Kyoraku."

Byakuya held Hisana's hand and walked slowly to Mazuru and Shunsui.

"Thank you!"

Byakuya is a person who is used to hiding all his feelings in his heart, but he always wanted to say this sentence to Mazuru and Shunsui.

How did Tokinada's previous crime spread so widely? Even if he didn't understood it at first, he gradually understood it later.

"Seireitei Communication Monthly" is a publication issued by the Eighth Division. So the person behind the scenes is the Shunsui. Mazuru and Shunsui are very close. In addition, when he was in trouble, Mazuru said him that the situation would soon change.

Byakuya understood that it was his teacher and Shunsui who were helping him.

Shunsui didn't mean to hide anything, and said with a smile, "You are welcome, Byakuya-kun. I was asked a favor by brother Mazuru, so I just helped a little bit. Well, I didn't like Tokinada either. That person was not worthy of being a shinigami."

Tokinada was already dead, and since this was the Kuchiki family, Shunsui didn't have any scruples and directly scolded him.

Byakuya immediately looked at Mazuru more gratefully.

Mazuru looked calm, his eyes fell on Byakuya and Hisana, "I wish you a happy marriage."

"Thank you sensei for your blessing."

A smile appeared on the corner of Byakuya's mouth accompanied with a gentle expression.

Then, he took Hisana and left from there.

Coming here with Shunsui, Nanao, who had witnessed the wedding of a nobleman. When she watched the young couple leave, she couldn't help sighing, "It's really an enviable emotional bond."

"Yeah, that's why I want them to be happy." Mazuru's words seemed to have other meanings.

Nanao and Mazuru were very familiar, so she immediately looked at Mazuru in bewilderment, not understanding his words.
