Chapter 207: Muramasa's Purpose

"It was… materialized Muramasa?"

Toshiro immediately spoke out his guess and looked at Mazuru.

"Yes, that should be it." Mazuru nodded, "The materialized Muramasa is using his ability to take revenge on Seireitei... However, I guess, revenge on Seireitei should not be his real purpose."

"Why do you think so sensei?"

Toshiro was puzzled.

Sui Feng on the side also asked Mazuru out of Onmitsukidō's instinctive habit, "Mazuru, you seem to understand it very well?"

Mazuru didn't hide it either, "Back then, by coincidence, I fought against Muramasa and the owner of Muramasa, so I know some things about this particular Zanpakuto."

"Muramasa, like Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu, is a Zanpakuto of the hallucinatory department. Its ability is to make the enemy's Zanpakuto uncontrollable and turn against its own master."

Hearing this, both Sui Feng and Toshiro were a little stunned, "So those shinigami who died under their own Zanpakuto..."

"They were all influenced by Muramasa!"

Sui Feng asked Mazuru, "So, this incident, was it the owner of Muramasa who manipulated it to do it?"

Mazuru shook his head, and said under Sui Feng's puzzled eyes, "Although I don't know why Muramasa is suddenly popping up to make trouble again after a hundred years, but if I remember correctly, the owner of the Zanpakuto Muramasa was as early as a hundred years ago, taken care of by the head-captain and then captain of the Sixth Division, Kuchiki Ginrei, this incident is very likely to be caused by Muramasa alone."

"Is it really possible for Zanpakuto to act alone without its master's control or will?"

Toshiro felt a little weird, and so did Sui Feng. 

"In this world, there are always things that are both unexpected and incredible."

Sui Feng asked again: "Who is the owner of the Muramasa?"

Mazuru responded, "His name is Kuchiki Koga, I don't know if you have heard of him or not."

Toshiro obviously hadn't heard of it, but when Sui Feng heard the surname "Kuchiki" and thought about it carefully. She felt that the name sounded familiar.

The turmoil caused by Muramasa was definitely more than just killing a few shinigami, making Toshiro's Hyōrinmaru materialize was not an easy thing to deal with, it was dealt with because Mazuru helped Toshiro reconquer Hyōrinmaru.

Meanwhile, Shunsui, who was walking slowly towards this side, was also stopped.

It was because, Katen Kyōkotsu also materialized and turned into two girls, one big and one small, and attacked Shunsui.

After Shunsui's Zanpakuto was bewitched, many shinigami's Zanpakuto in the Seireitei were made to rebel one after another. Their Zanpakuto were bewitched by Muramasa and came to reality in a materialized form but not all Zanpakuto harbored malice toward their masters but still when it appeared, it launched an attack on their masters, but this still caused great turmoil in the Seireitei.

…

Kuchiki house.

Kuchiki Byakuya also learned what was happening outside.

He came to the place where his grandfather and father lived in seclusion and found his father.

"Father, that guy did it, right?"

Byakuya looked at Kuchiki Sojun, and said bluntly that what happened outside reminded him of an old scandal of the Kuchiki family.

Sojun sighed and said nothing.

Byakuya said in a deep voice, "Although I don't know what is going on with that guy's Zanpakuto, but that person who insulted the Kuchiki family, I will definitely not let him escape!"

"Byakuya, this time, let me be an old guy take the responsibility." 

An extremely old voice sounded, and Byakuya and Sojun looked sideways at the same time.

"Father…"

"Grandfather…"

Ginrei leaned on a cane and walked slowly. Compared with his past appearance, he looked even older.

Facing Byakuya's eyes, Ginrei said, "It was my negligence back then that led to today's disaster. I am very clear about Muramasa's purpose. It is nothing more than to find the sealing place of Koga and rescue him."

"This time, I will personally go out and kill Koga before Muramasa finds him!"

Hearing what Ginrei said, whether it was Sojun or Byakuya, their complexions had varied changes.

Byakuya tried to dissuade Ginrei, "Grandpa, I am the current head of the Kuchiki family. You have already retired. This matter should be handled by me."

Ginrei sighed and said, "Although that is indeed the case, after all, it is because of me, that the hidden danger of Muramasa was left behind. How can I let you handle it for me when it was my wistfulness caused it?"

Many shinigami didn't know what's exactly was going on with the situation in Seireitei and what caused it.

But for the Kuchiki family, they quickly understood that this type of thing happened because of Koga.

While the three generation of the Kuchiki family were chatting in the backyard of the family house, someone suddenly came to report.

"Byakuya-sama, Captain Sui Feng of the Second Division and Captain Kyo Mazuru of the Third Division came for a visit!"

"Sensei?"

Hearing this, Byakuya was a little surprised.

Ginrei had an uncertain expression on his face, then he gave the order, "Bring them here."

"Yes!"

Even though Ginrei had retired, he was the previous head after all, so the servants dare not neglect his orders.

Soon, under the servant's guidance, Mazuru and Sui Feng came there.

"Greetings, Ginrei-sama. I hope you are doing well."

Sui Feng greeted Ginrei.

In addition to her status as a captain of Gotei 13, she was also the head of the lower-level aristocratic Feng family. Facing Ginrei, the previous head of the Kuchiki family, she should still show the proper respect.

Although Ginrei had retired now, but with his status and prestige, if he wanted, he could definitely occupy a place in the new Central 46 that was still being formed, and he would, without a doubt, get one of the most six important positions.

"Captain Ginrei, it's been a long time since we last met."

Mazuru greeted Ginrei, and then cut straight to the point, "I'm sure everyone knows about the outside affairs, so I'm here just to ask some questions to Captain Ginrei." 

"What question?"

"Where did you and head-captain sealed Kuchiki Koga back then?"

As soon as this question came out, Sojun and Byakuya looked dead serious at the same time, and Sui Feng also listened attentively.

"You really guessed it…"

Ginrei sighed.

Mazuru nodded, "Zanpakuto is a part of shinigami's soul. If shinigami dies, Zanpakuto will also disappear, and then degenerate into an asauchi. No matter how special Muramasa is, it is impossible for it to survive alone without its master… So, Koga, should still be alive."

"He was sealed by you and head-captain, isn't he? Muramasa is creating all this ruckus in Seireitei, just to find the location of the seal, am I right?"

Mazuru already knew many of the answers, but due to the source of his knowledge being his transmigration, he couldn't tell them, so he came to Kuchiki's house and asked them in front of Ginrei himself.
