Chapter 1172 Returning to Seireitei part 2

In the middle of all of this, Soifon remained calm, "As expected of Captain Kurotsuchi, you instantly noticed it.

She then turned to Shunsui and asked for permission, "Should I narrate my report here?"

Shunsui became very worried about what this report could entail, 'But since she's here, she must have reached some sort of agreement with him. I can only trust his work.'

Soifon nodded and started narrating what she 'found out'. Meanwhile, Mayuri took back his Zanpakuto and intently listened. Of course, there's still some doubt in his mind that the woman speaking is not Soifon herself, but someone else entirely, 'If someone could transfer a Shinigami's soul into a Physical body and still have their abilities... This is going to send waves through the noble clans.'

Starting from the existence of Magic and Ki and how to use them, to some information about Serafall, the other teenage girls, and the mysterious man. Thankfully, she practiced what she had to say because Soifon had to be careful not to elude Ophis, Lilith, and Flanna's existences.

"Sitri Serafall and Belial Claire are 'Devils'. Belial Kunou is a 'Fox Demon'. Belial Tanis is a 'Dragon'. And the masked man is unknown... What is that supposed to mean?" Iba Tetsuzaemon interrupted Soifon and loudly muttered.

Soifon turned her head towards him and said, "You'll understand it better if you were to think that they are not Humans, Shinigami, Quincy, Hollows, or Fullbringers."

Small and multiple discussions instantly erupted upon Soifon answering the question, trying to dissect the words she used. While there are multiple 'races' that exist within Soul Society, they are, all in all, categorized as Spiritual beings. So it's a bit hard for them to think about beings that suddenly appeared out of nowhere that aren't under that category and use an entirely different form of power.

Shunsui clapped his hands to interrupt everyone, "Let's have Soifon finish her report first. We can have all the discussions we need after."

Everyone became quiet and let Soifon continue.

And finally, she moved to the currently most important matter, "As for the reason why I have a Physical body, it's because my Spiritual body was beyond saving."

"..." Mayuri creased his brows.

"After getting hit by Baraggan's miasma directly on my chest, it was supposed to have been certain death for me. The masked man, who wanted to be called Belial, figured that there was no point in saving my body and instead transferred my soul into an experimental body he was working on called Homunculus."

"Not a Gigai?" Mayuri asked.

Soifon shook her head, "No. Unlike a Gigai that only temporarily houses a Spiritual body, this is apparently something more permanent."

Most of the Captains instantly understood the implications of that and had their eyes widened, "...Then, does that mean..."

"I'm stuck like this, until the end of my life." Soifon continued Isane's words, "I had to stay for more than three months at their side to stabilize my situation. But because this is the first instance of this happening according to Belial, I have to return to him at regular intervals for checkups and further adjustments. While I can use my Shinigami abilities right now, the creator of this body doesn't know what side effects could still come up."

Isane covered her mouth at the unbelievable scenario and didn't know what to say.

Silence descended upon the room with only the sound of breathing could be heard.

"...And did you find out for what reason he created something like this?" Mayuri suddenly asked after the silence.

Soifon stayed still for a moment before shaking her head, "No. He didn't mention anything that could be pointed in that direction. Whenever I talk about it, he'll just dodge it or talk about the condition of my body. However, I do have some guesses."

Mayuri's eyes shined, "Anything is fine, tell us what you think about it."

"It seems that Belial was also trying to find a way to neutralize the immortality of those who fell in Hell and once mentioned something along the lines of [They are using Magic constructs as bodies.] I'm not really sure what that meant, but I have a feeling that this and that are related."

The meeting that extended for another few hours finally ended. And as expected, Mayuri wanted to perform a 'check up' on Soifon. Naturally, Soifon instantly refused as she knew that his 'check up' could probably mean dissecting her. He only backed off after explaining that Belial didn't allow any check-up by anyone other than him because of the complex nature of Soifon's situation and any mistake could mean disaster for all those involved.

Everyone except for Soifon, Shinji, Nanao, and Shunsui left. The captains, except of course for Zaraki who didn't really care, had multiple questions that they wanted answered but for now, they were asked to return to their posts to prepare for the upcoming operation.

Shunsui was about to speak up but Soifon stopped him by raising her left hand to him. Her right hand then took out a smartphone from the pocket of her hoodie and took a quick glance at it, "Alright. It looks like there are no bugs around." Soifon murmured.

"And that is?" Shunsui asked after Soifon put down her hand.

"His nifty gadget that detects bugs, especially the ones made by Mayuri. It should work for a while."

Shinji sighed and said, "In the first place, shouldn't we move somewhere more private?"

"We can't." Soifon immediately refused, "It'll only raise more suspicion. And now that I've confirmed that there shouldn't be anyone watching or listening in, this is the safest place we can talk in secret."

Shinji understood where she was coming from and asked another question, "What would you do if there's a bug?"

"Then we can postpone it until we can get a good opportunity again. There's really nothing else we can do."

Shinji looked at Shunsui and the nervous Nanao. With the former nodding his head, Shinji turned his head back to Soifon and asked, "How is Kisuke doing?"

Soifon closed her eyes in frustration and sighed, "Still as energetic as ever... annoyingly so."

"And is there something you can tell us about them?" It was Shunsui's turn to ask.

"...I apologize, but there's nothing."

Shunsui furrowed his brows, "Why?"

However, Soifon shut her mouth and only shook her head.

"I see..." Shunsui leaned back and thought of something else before speaking again, "What about information? He must have shared some with you."

Soifon nodded, "Yes. But before that, I'd like to know if there are any reports that came in from the Kurosaki family."

"No. None whatsoever. What about it?"

"On the day of the attack on Hell, the Kurosaki family were also attacked."

"Wait, what?" Shinji became highly concerned, "But we received nothing like that."

"Of course. It is to protect the identity of the attackers from Szayelaporro's eyes."

Soifon then proceeded to explain to the three of them what transpired in the Kurosaki Household.
