Chapter 90 - The Dilemma of the Great Nobles

Arima suddenly looked at Yoruichi curiously.

Feeling the teacher's curious gaze, Yoruichi also shared what he knew.

"Although it is true that Qianzi Xianghe only entered the Spiritual Arts Academy now, he was actually secretly trained by the Kuchiki family for a long time before that.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to complete all the courses at the Spiritual Arts Academy in such a short period of time."

"Why? You don't think such a genius exists in this world?" Arima asked Yoruichi abruptly.

It may seem unbelievable to complete all the courses at the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year, but in fact, many people have accomplished this.

Shiba Kaien in the original work graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year and then entered the 13th Division and became the third seat.

Perhaps it should be said that Shiba Kaien himself was born into the Shiba family, a declining noble. Before entering school, he received the same Shinigami education as Yoruichi, which gave him a solid foundation.

What about Ichimaru Gin?

Ichimaru Gin was born a commoner. Before he was admitted to the Spiritual Arts Academy, he did not receive any education about Shinigami. As a result, he graduated in one year. After that, in order to follow Aizen, he killed three seats in the fifth division and became the third seat.

Therefore, as long as someone is talented enough, achieving this is not difficult.

Yoruichi met Arima's gaze and said, "Such a genius, of course, exists. If nothing else, Kisuke and I could achieve this in ten years if we are willing."

"But there is a difference between graduating from the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year and enrolling for one year, completing all the courses, and mastering Bankai."

Yoruichi explained this to Arima and also revealed some secrets about Kōga.

The opponent has clearly mastered Bankai.

Although few people know that the Kuchiki family secretly cultivated Kōga, the Shihouin family, being another great noble family, had insight into this matter, as their subordinates handle secret maneuvers. It's difficult to hide things from the Shihouin family.

The Shihouin family knew that Kōga had learned Bankai.

"The Kuchiki family has encountered a problem," Yoruichi said, directly mentioning the matter of another noble family—the Kuchiki family, which is now the head of the five noble families.

"The Kuchiki family, which replaced the Tsunayashiro family and became the first of the five nobles, is the family that cares most about the honor of the nobles. They have made it their duty to protect the honor of the nobles from generation to generation."

"Since the Sixth Division became a noble team and was controlled by the Kuchiki family, all the captains of the Sixth Division have been from the Kuchiki family."

"But this generation has some problems."

Yoruichi paused and continued, "The son of Mr. Kuchiki Ginrei, Kuchiki Sojun, does not have the talent to become a powerful Shinigami. Although he can become a Shinigami, he cannot become a strong one."

"This is something that the Kuchiki family cannot tolerate."

"However, he must accept this reality."

"In order to protect the honor of the Kuchiki family, he had no choice but to take action."

"It just so happens that Mr. Kuchiki Ginrei has a daughter. If they can recruit a strong man to join the Kuchiki family as his son-in-law and let him assist Kuchiki Kōga as his adopted son, he may be able to help the Kuchiki family overcome this difficulty."

"But nowadays, it is obviously impossible for many of the strong men among the Gotei 13 to choose to marry into the Kuchiki family and become sons-in-law and adopted sons."

"Therefore, we can only choose candidates from the common people who are qualified to become elite Shinigami and strong people."

"That's why there was Kōga?" Arima asked.

"Yes."

Yoruichi nodded and said, "Kōga is a genius that the Kuchiki family spent a long time searching for. Before he entered the Spiritual Arts Academy, he had already been trained by the Kuchiki family for a long time and even mastered Bankai."

"He went to the Spiritual Arts Academy to study, but because he is a civilian, he needs to go through the formalities and then become an official Shinigami."

"In other words, after he graduates, it will be time for him to join the Sixth Division and become the adopted son of the Kuchiki family?" Arima continued.

Yoruichi admitted frankly, "That's right."

Arima stopped talking.

In his mind, he thought about what happened to Kuchiki Kōga in the original plot of the animation.

When he first watched the animation, it didn't seem strange.

Now that he thought about it, it became increasingly unreasonable.

As the son-in-law and adopted son of the Kuchiki family, Kuchiki Kōga would actually be framed by some small and medium-sized nobles in the First Division. It is really unreasonable. Aren't those people afraid of the Kuchiki family?

You know, the Kuchiki family is the head of the five nobles.

In the face of Kuchiki Kōga, who was unjustly imprisoned, Kuchiki Ginrei did not use the privileges of the nobility to release him, but let him wait while secretly looking for evidence to exonerate Kuchiki Kōga.

Why bother?

Unless, someone is restraining the Kuchiki family.

Behind the nobles who framed Kuchiki Kōga, there were also other forces standing behind them.

So, which family in Soul Society could compete with a noble family like the Kuchiki family?

Of course, it's another noble family.

Arima had these thoughts in his mind, perhaps conspiracy theories included.

But the relationships between the great nobles were not as simple as they seemed.

Conspiracy theories are not necessarily just random thoughts; they may also be facts.

Especially considering what Yoruichi had said before.

The position of the Kuchiki family as the head of the five nobles was obtained by replacing the Tsunayashiro family.

At the time of the original plot, only four noble families were left.

The Shiba family had been expelled from the ranks of the great nobles.

It can be seen that the battles between the great nobles are extremely cruel.

The Shiba family could be expelled from the ranks of the great nobles.

So, it is not incomprehensible that the Kuchiki family, now in decline and facing poverty, is targeted for the position of head of the great noble family, and secretly plots to overthrow the Kuchiki family.

"But what does this have to do with me?"

Arima's thoughts changed, and he put these things aside.

Everything is as described by Yoruichi.

Kōga, studying at the Spiritual Arts Academy, was just a formality.

In just one year, he graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy.

After graduation, he joined the Sixth Division, a noble division.

Later, when he heard his name, he had changed his surname to Kuchiki Kōga.

He gained the attention of the Kuchiki family, became their son-in-law and adopted son, and married Kuchiki Ginrei's daughter.
