[Back To The Present, Right After Returning From The Human World]

(Genryujin's POV)

"You lot are terrible." I grumbled as I stood in front of Gramps as he sat in his seat, "Why the fuck would you put my home under siege, Gramps!?" 

"You know damn well why." He said calmly, "Do you think that we, The Gotei, would lose face because my grandson would do as he pleases?"

I was in the main hall of the Squad 1 Barracks where they have their Captain Meetings. Every single Captain was present, which was surprising sometimes. Every single one of them; including Retsu and Soi Fon. 

"So what? What's my punishment?" I said, "So I can roll over and take it like the good little dog." 

"Do not use sarcasm with me, boy." Gramps growled, "You will be banned from leaving the Seretei for 10 years, you will be be tracked by a specific brand placed on you by Captain Kurotsuchi. If you resist, I will have all of your wives surveilled as well." 

I tilted my head, "Let's not have that discussion." I said

"I'm being fair to them." He said, "They will be left alone. As for you, I will have you go to Central 46 and receive their punishment. This is mine, only. As far I'm concerned, take your complaints with them." 

I nodded as I looked around and saw all of the captains just standing there and looking at me. "Cool." I said, "What's this? Why're they here? Watch me get scolded by the old man? Or they're your security?" 

"Security?" Gramps said, "You think I cannot handle you by myself? No, Genryujin, this is for them to know that nobody is exempt from the law!!" 

He slammed his cane on the floor, letting out a resounding thud. He then gave me a serious glare as he released his reiatsu. 

"Scary...." I said sarcastically, "I mean, this crazy bastard is itching for me to do something." 

I pointed at Kenpachi who gave me a vicious smirk, "Ohoho, make my day, Genryujin..." He said, "Do something stupid..." 

"Take it easy." Isshin told him, "You don't want to fight in here with the old man present, do it outside.....outside the seretei or something." 

"You imbecile, he's banned from leaving the seretei!" Kenpachi said

"Quiet down, you Neanderthals'!" Kurotsuchi said as he walked over to me, "Genryujin, your arm." 

I raised my arm as he placed a bracelet on me. 

"The tracker?" I asked him

"Yes. Only Squad 12 will have you tracked, so in short, I will know your every movement." He said with a sneer, "Let's get along." 

I flipped him off right in front of his face as his sneer changed to a frown, "Get bent, buddy." I said, "I'll see you next week when you give my gigai back." 

"It's my property now..." He said 

"No. I paid good money for it, I'll cut you in half if you don't return it." I said

"That's enough, Genryujin." Gramps said, "Go to Central 46, they're expecting you." 

***************************************************

"Yamamoto Genryujin, the violation of the zanpakuto ban was foolish." I heard one of the Central 46 geezers say, "What do you have to say in your defense?" 

"That you're all a bunch of idiots and pussies." I said shrugging

I heard a bunch of gasps and angry murmuring. 

"What did you say?!" He exclaimed

"You banned my zanpakuto's release in the Soul Society, idiot." I said, "Do you remember? I released it in the Human World." 

"Y-You...." he said

"You were restricted from going to the human world, regardless!!" Another said, "By violating that and releasing your zanpakuto, you've added to your violatio-" 

"Just shut up and give me my punishment already." I said, "You're boring me to death, make that my execution." 

"Silence!!" One of them snapped, "Yamamoto Genryujin, we hereby sentence you to-" 

"Wait." Another said, "This won't be wise. Captain-Commander Yamamoto already placed him under house arrest and banned him from leaving the seretei and has him under constant monitoring with Squad 12's tracking device. That is enough for him." 

"What? He violated the-" he said

"Out of all Shinigami in the history of Soul Society, Yamamoto Genryujin has been lenient with us." The other said, "I believe that if we push him far enough, it'll be poorly for the future of Soul Society. This 'punishment' his grandfather placed on him is enough, he'll abide by that...." 

"We cannot show leniency to a shinigami simply because he's related to the Captain-Commander, do you understan-" 

"He's not just related to Genryusai." The one defending me cut him off, "He's related to Squad 0's Senjumaru Shutara and was a candidate to join the Royal Guard....This is fine." 

"I agree." an old woman's voice said, "He killed the strange hollow with ease and no casualties, save for the ones that were already killed. And he purified a human girl's soul, possibly preventing a tragic incident. If anything, it was for the best." 

I smiled, "I'm glad you're looking at it my way." I said, "Thank you, thank you." 

"Yamamoto Genryujin, you are still under your grandfather's punishment." The one defending me said, "That is all, you are dismissed." 

"I am still here to confirm and remind you guys..." I said, "The time is almost here...." 

"Right....." One of them said, "Her release....every 200 years, she is allowed to walk freely for a decade...and in a few weeks.....she's out...." 

"That is another reason we should not push harder." Another said, "If Genryujin and two of the original Gotei 13 captains decide to revolt, it'll be ugly....Especially since its her....." 

"Relax, I'll keep her under control." I said, "I am glad we understand each other." 

"Very well. That is all." one of them said

I turned around and walked out of the room. 

"Isn't it interesting that it isn't martial prowess that is the ultimate power in this place...." I said as I looked up, "It's political power...right? Tokinada...." 

I stopped next to a wall that the scum of the Soul Society leaned against, giving me a sneer. 

"Genryujin-san..." He said with his annoying voice, "I admire you, you know....your martial prowess far surpasses the political power...1,000 years ago, your grandfather banded all the ruffians together to protect us Nobles...." 

I scowled at him, "I don't want you near me nor my wives, Tokinada...." I said, "If I hear you're behind whatever the fuck is going on...." 

I walked over to him and gave him a glare as he merely smirked. 

"I'll gut you like the pig you are...." I continued

"Oooh...." He said, "Scary....but it is not me, unfortunately....why would I mess with the mighty Sword God? No, no, no, that requires massive cojones and a powerful ability....that I don't have...." 

I narrowed my eyes, "Meaning?" 

He decided to walk away, "Won't say~!" He said

***********************************************************

"How much longer are we keeping this up?" Gramps said as he sat behind his desk

I was in his main office, after my meeting with Central 46. 

I looked around, "Is the barrier up, Chojiro-san?" I asked Sasakibe

He nodded, "Nobody is listening." He said

I then looked at Gramps, "As long as it takes, Gramps." I said, "You're lucky I told you before the zanpakuto ban." 

He looked at me, "As you should..." He said, "The first time you've enacted a plan without my knowledge, several Vasto Lordes were let in the rukongai districts. The dumbest plan you've had...." 

I nodded, "Yea it was reckless, but fun." I said with a smile

"I cannot keep this act for much longer, Genryujin, not in front of your wives." He said

"Grown soft, old man?" I asked him

"For my family, always." He said

"Family? You consider Katori fa-" I started

"Of course, you fool!" He exclaimed, "She's married to my grandson, you imbecile! I didn't like placing your home under siege by using Soi Fon, either! But it had to be done....." 

"That is correct." Sasakibe said, "How long until the traitor is rooted out, Genryu-kun?" 

I shrugged, "I don't know...but I smelled that rat years ago, before the incident with Shinji and the others." I said, "We keep this act up until the time comes." 

"When will that be?" Gramps asked

"I don't know that either." I said, "Keep being the ruthless dictator until then. Think about this scenario, Soul Society is invaded by ryokai, right? The first person that 'dies'...that's the traitor." 

"Why would that be the case?" Sasakibe asked

"Because with the chaos ensued by a ryokai and staging their death, it'll give them leeway to enact their plan." I said as I looked at him, "Think about it, it's genius. That and that stupid hollow I fought, it was made from somewhere here, I just know it. The moment it exploded, I sensed Shinigami souls from it...something is not right." 

"Our first suspect might be Captain Kuro-" Saskibe said

"No." I cut him off, "That's what the traitor wants us to think. That the mad scientist would do this. Yes, Kurotsuchi is a crazy bastard but crazy or stupid enough to do this? No, its unheard of. Even Urahara wasn't this dumb." 

"He's right." Gramps said, "Who are you suggesting? I can see it in your eyes, Genryujin....you have a feeling who it is..." 

I looked at them, "I shouldn't say this...but what I say doesn't leave this room." I said, 

"The person who I believe is the traitor....their name is..."
