章 96: The Tsundere Backed Off
As a member of the Research and Development Institute, besides basic scientific literacy, the most important quality was resilience.
Those who become members of the Institute were among the best in the Soul Society in these areas.
Body modifications and organ transplantation are just child's play within the Research and Development Institute, with almost everyone having undergone such procedures.
Individuals like Hiyosu and Torue were typical examples.
Both of them, in order to better conduct research or carry out capturing missions, had transplanted knives inside themselves more than once.
In theory, given the current atmosphere and customs within the Research and Development Institute, one would expect that everyone would gradually become accustomed to and accept Mayuri's eccentric behaviors.
But in reality, Mayuri was more eccentric than they could imagine.
Just the current scene alone is enough to leave many members of the Research and Development Institute shocked.
Have you ever seen a Soul Reaper get his head and half of his body blown apart, only to recover on his own, unharmed, in a short period of time?
Mayuri's level of body modification far exceeded the understanding of others.
Because of the experience of being punched by Tokikaze, he conducted further research, and made some discoveries from it.
He combined the two inventions of flesh supplement and flesh spray through multiple experiments, extracting the essence and eliminating the dross, then conducting some indescribable research and development, and finally implanting them into his own body.
His injury and recovery were maxed out, and the only downside was that he looked less and less like a normal Soul Reaper.
When he fully recovered and stood before Tokikaze and Soi-Fon again, even Tokikaze's eyes flashed with surprise.
He could see, a large amount of Reishi began to reconstruct themselves.
As Mayuri said, these were the embryonic forms of surveillance bacteria, still in the research and development stage and beyond his control.
Wherever he appeared, there would be surveillance bacteria floating around.
Soi-Fon was even more shocked and speechless by the scene before her. Even as the right hand of Shihoin Yoruichi, and the current Commander-in-Chief of the Onmitsukido, she was accustomed to the dark side of the Soul Society.
However, she wasn't aware of something like this.
Every moment happening now tested her already fragile nerves.
If it weren't for Tokikaze maintaining a relatively calm expression beside her, perhaps she would have already issued an order as the Commander-in-Chief of the Onmitsukido.
"You're really making it difficult for me."
Tokikaze looked disdainfully at Mayuri, "I hope this is the last time. If similar incidents occur again, you should know the consequences."
Mayuri pressed one hand against his head and the other against his chin, then twisted it forcefully, as a sound of bones cracking echoed throughout the room.
His expression remained calm throughout, as if he were breaking someone else's neck.
"Hehahaha, Captain Tokikaze is as ruthless as ever!"
"But I still have to thank Captain Tokikaze. The Vasto Lorde's flesh sent by Yamada Seinosuke was very useful and solved a key problem in a major research project."
Soi-Fon's right hand had been on the Zanpakutō at her waist all along, and she felt insecure in this situation.
She was starting to regret taking on the task of observing Mayuri.
But her stubborn and arrogant nature prevented her from backing down.
"I already have a gist of you two's purpose for coming here."
Mayuri moved his gradually recovering neck, emitting a grating sound, "I'm not very interested in the position of the Captain of the Twelfth Division. But there is currently no one more suitable than me, right? Since that disgusting guy disappeared, I have taken over the Research and Development Institute, and most of the work of the Twelfth Division is now handled by me personally."
Soi-Fon's expression was stern, colder than even Daibai: "What do you mean, are you now equal to the Captain's authority?"
Mayuri glanced casually at Soi-Fon: "Tsk, what an unlovable guy you are."
One sentence almost stirred up a hornet's nest. Soi-Fon drew out her Zanpakutō, and a chilling atmosphere filled the corridor.
Tokikaze seemed to ignore this scene, still maintaining a calm demeanor.
Now Soi-Fon was practically the weakest among the Captains.
The greatest role she played was to act as a mascot with her petite figure.
Of course, she had to change her tsundere personality a bit. Now that tsundere has become outdated, one must keep up with the times to avoid being left behind.
"Wow, how scary!"
Mayuri, with a mocking grin on his peculiar face, was being pointed at by Soi-Fon's sword, as if taunting:
"Captain Soi-Fon, drawing your sword without authorization is not what a qualified Second Division Captain should do! There are things that should be done!"
"This is far worse compared to your predecessor."
As soon as these words were spoken, Tokikaze's expression subtly changed, looking at the two with interest.
Without a doubt, Shihoin Yoruichi was a sensitive spot for Soi-Fon at this stage, and would be for the next hundred years as well.
Mayuri, unaware of this, spoke recklessly, which was bound to get him into trouble.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, a hint of gloom flashed in Soi-Fon's eyes, and she immediately launched an attack on Mayuri without hesitation.
Squelch—
Soi-Fon's Zanpakutō, emanating a chilling aura, pierced through Mayuri's hand.
"Hiss, that's really painful."
With a twisted expression, Mayuri blocked Soi-Fon's attack at the cost of his left hand.
Blood splattered, a flash of red disappeared in the corridor.
Soon, Soi-Fon realized her mistake and put away her Zanpakutō with unusually serious expression.
The wound on Mayuri's right hand healed at a visible speed, with no scars left, in just a few seconds.
This level of recovery already surpassed his subsequent performances.
Obviously, Tokikaze's previous brutal beating of this guy had made him feel somewhat learn from his mistake.
With his potential unleashed, Mayuri's research on self-preservation took a significant step forward.
"Captain Tokikaze, aren't you going to express your opinion?"
Mayuri had no intention of communicating with Soi-Fon. In his opinion, the rationality of this Second Division Captain was inferior to his own.
"Don't get me wrong, I can firmly stand by your side."
Tokikaze continued to tease Mayuri, repeating what she had said at the Captains' meeting:
"After all, you are the second most intelligent person after Kisuke Urahara, and the most suitable person to be the Captain of the Twelfth Division."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mayuri's eye twitched, and the mocking expression on his face could no longer be maintained. Under the black and white paint, there was an undisguised anger.
Obviously, this remark was more hurtful than Soi-Fon stabbing his hand.
