If Uehara Naraku were to enter the legendary Zero Squad, it would be most fitting, but unfortunately, he's too young, and there are already more suitable people who have joined Zero Squad.
Now, we can only wait for time to pass...
At least for now, the Uehara Race has made some changes.
In the eyes of all the Shinigami in the Soul Society, this is a good thing. At the very least, they no longer have to worry about the constant threat of internal war.
Perhaps the Uehara Race will gradually decline in the future, eventually becoming like the noble clans such as the Kuchiki and Shihoin after hundreds of thousands of years...
Yes.
Even if the Uehara Race's power diminishes over time, it will only degenerate into an upper noble class in the Soul Society. Just how outrageous is this family!
However...
At this moment, the Uehara Race is still to be revered by others.
Even though Yakushi Kabuto has cracked the Reanimation Jutsu, it doesn't stop the Uehara Race from using its powers to absorb Shinigami who are willing to become their subordinates.
Of course...
As part of the deal, when Yakushi Kabuto cracked the Reanimation Jutsu, he made a pact with the Uehara Race under the Soul Society's intervention, promising never to reveal the secrets of the Reanimation Jutsu to anyone.
In this matter, it seems the Uehara Race is not at a disadvantage.
The Uehara Race just needs to wait for a while, and after Yakushi Kabuto's demise, they can once again maintain their supreme status in the Soul Society with the Reanimation Jutsu...
However!
Only some of the higher-ranking captains know!
The Uehara Race has indeed been played!
Because, centuries ago, after Yakushi Kabuto cracked the Reanimation Jutsu, he was secretly invited to join the legendary Zero Squad. With the Soul King's Power transplanted into him, Yakushi Kabuto would gain an Undying Body!
But for the past few hundred years, Yakushi Kabuto's invitation to join the Zero Squad remained an absolute secret. He didn't use the Soul King's Power either, to avoid raising the Uehara Race's suspicions.
With the death of the previous Patriarch Uehara and the succession of the weak Uehara Naraku, Yakushi Kabuto can now transplant the Soul King's Power and achieve an Undying Body!
This means...
The Reanimation Jutsu will no longer be exclusive to the Uehara Race!
"This world is like a tangled chess game..."
Uehara Naraku walked on the streets of Drifting Spirit Town, with a warm smile on his face, speaking words that did not match his seemingly weak personality: "It's strange, why does everyone assume they can control everything..."
"..."
Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Obito from the Thirteen Deadguard remained silent.
Was Uehara Naraku blushing when he spoke those words? Why did the high-ranking officials of the Soul Society think they could control everything, if not because of him?
Besides Yakushi Kabuto...
Only the Thirteen Deadguard clearly knew that the Uehara Naraku before them was never a good person, and his strength was not as fragile as he made it appear.
Moreover...
His methods have become sharper than in the past!
Indeed, compared to before, Uehara Naraku's tactics have become more adept.
Uehara Naraku now took advantage of the time gap, simply released the Reanimation Jutsu and a group of souls, and from nothing, established a powerful clan, plunging the entire Soul Society into chaos!
"Speaking of which..."
Uehara Naraku paused his steps, glanced at Uchiha Itachi: "How's the situation with Hollow World today while I was taking an exam in the Mortal World?"
"Someone tried to assassinate you."
Uchiha Itachi slightly furrowed his brows and spoke softly: "But they used some second-rate means, which won't pose any threat at all..."
In fact, someone had dispatched seventeen Gillian Level Hollows, but in Uchiha Itachi's eyes, it was indeed just a second-rate trick.
Moreover, before the enemy sent those Hollows to attack Uehara Naraku, the Hollow World already sent the message to them.
"Furthermore..."
A hint of red gradually appeared in Uchiha Itachi's eyes as he softly continued: "Today, Aizen Sousuke, the Captain of Squad 5, seemed to want to use Genjutsu on you..."
"Oh?"
Uehara Naraku slowly nodded and chuckled softly: "Then I'm looking forward to his Kyoka Suigetsu... You all just hope I won't be controlled by him, as Genjutsu has never been my strong suit!"
"..."
Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Obito didn't want to speak.
Even though Uehara Naraku was not adept at using Genjutsu, just his Rinnegan, which surpassed the Sharingan, was enough to see through any Genjutsu.
Besides, the reason Uehara Naraku wasn't great at Genjutsu...
Is because he can directly manipulate others' fates in reality, making Genjutsu unnecessary!
Just as Uehara Naraku and the others arrived at the gates of Quiet Spirit Court, the gates slowly opened, and a squad of Death-Conquering Robe-clad Shinigami marched out in a row, each Shinigami instinctively slowing their steps.
This squad of Shinigami was the 10th Squad heading out on a mission.
The leading person was none other than the current Captain of the 10th Squad, Kurosaki Ishin, or rather, he should now be called Shiba Ishin, a Shinigami with a very cheerful personality.
"Yo, isn't it little Naraku?"
"Captain!"
Matsumoto Rangiku, the Vice Captain standing beside Shiba Ishin, couldn't help but wrinkle her brow, softly reminding: "We should refer to him as Lord Naraku..."
