It is said that on the day when Kuchiki Kōga married into the Kuchiki family and became the adopted son-in-law of Kuchiki Ginrei, Kuchiki Ginrei held a grand banquet at his home. Many nobles among the Seireitei came to celebrate, including the five major nobles.
The Kuchiki family is the head of the five nobles, and it can be said that it represents them.
The Shihouin family was attended by Yoruichi.
Arima heard about the grand occasion from Yoruichi's mouth. Such a grand occasion was enough to show that Kuchiki Ginrei valued Kuchiki Kōga. After all, the next generation heir of the Kuchiki family was average in strength, and his son-in-law and adopted son could be regarded as half a son.
Kuchiki Kōga is the genius Shinigami. If he helps the Kuchiki family, at least the generation of Kuchiki Sojun will no longer have to worry. As for the subsequent generations, it will have little to do with Kuchiki Ginrei.
After all, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
The next generation of successors is something that Kuchiki Sojun should worry about.
Kuchiki Ginrei has already fulfilled all the responsibilities of his generation.
"It's really amazing. I graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year, and then married into the Kuchiki family and became the adopted son-in-law of the Kuchiki family. Among Gotei 13, I became the third seat as soon as I joined the team."
Aizen has also heard of Kuchiki Kōga, who is a popular figure in Seireitei in recent times.
If Kuchiki Kōga was just a commoner, even if he graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year, he would only be praised as a genius at most. But when he got involved with the Kuchiki family, he naturally became a man of the hour in Seireitei.
The Kuchiki family is the head of the five great nobles. It can be said that they stand at the top of all nobles.
Kuchiki Kōga ability to enter the Kuchiki family is enough to illustrate his own excellence.
"Why, Sōsuke, are you envious?"
Arima glanced at Aizen. "If you want to marry into the Kuchiki family, I can try to find Kuchiki Ginrei and help you convey your intention. Although Kuchiki Kōga has already married into the Kuchiki family, no one can tell when he will make a serious mistake and be expelled from the Kuchiki family."
"So, you still have a chance to expose yourself."
"Master, please stop making fun of me. I'm not as good as Kuchiki Kōga, and Captain Kuchiki can't possibly like me." Sōsuke was not angry because of Arima's teasing. On the contrary, he belittled himself.
"Sōsuke, what you say is too modest."
"If others don't know you, don't I know you well?"
"Kuchiki Kōga was able to graduate from the Spiritual Arts Academy in one year. He looked like a genius, but in fact, he had been secretly trained by the Kuchiki family before that. The so-called graduation in one year was just a formality to build momentum. First, they created his reputation as a genius. Then, when he married into the Kuchiki family, his reputation would become even louder, and the Kuchiki family's reputation would grow stronger, covering up the fact that the Kuchiki family was actually in decline."
While talking about Kuchiki Kōga, Arima looked at Aizen again. "But Sōsuke, you are different. Although it took you six years to graduate from the Spiritual Arts Academy, I know that if you wanted, you could have graduated in one year."
"In the final analysis, the courses at the Spiritual Arts Academy are just to teach some basic knowledge of Shinigami. For Shinigami who live a long life, the difference between six years and one year is not big."
"Besides, you forgot one thing."
Arima said to Aizen.
"No matter how talented Kuchiki Kōga is, he is only a third-ranking officer, and you are already the vice-captain."
"Currently, the captain of Division 6 is Kuchiki Ginrei, and the vice-captain is Kuchiki Sojun. Even if Kuchiki Kōga becomes the son-in-law and adopted son of the Kuchiki family, at most he would be able to serve as the chairman."
"Unless Kuchiki Ginrei abdicates, Kuchiki Sojun becomes the new captain. However, Kuchiki Sojun is weak, and serving as the vice-captain only relies on his father's identity. He is obviously not qualified to be the captain."
"And the Sixth Division is a noble team. The captains of all generations have been members of the Kuchiki family. Even though Kuchiki Kōga is the son-in-law and adopted son, he is not a true direct descendant of the Kuchiki family, so he has no chance of becoming the captain."
"Three seats is already his peak."
"He is destined to be unable to surpass you, Sōsuke!"
After Aizen heard Arima's analysis, he was stunned. The corners of his lips raised slightly, and he also showed a faint smile. It seemed like this.
"From this point of view, Kuchiki Kōga choice of the Sixth Division was actually not a wise choice."
When he said this, Aizen's words contained a hint of contempt for Kuchiki Kōga.
In other words, he didn't think highly of Kuchiki Kōga from the beginning.
For most of the Shinigami in Soul Society, Kuchiki Kōga became the adopted son of the Kuchiki family's son-in-law, which was a step into the sky. Since then, his identity has undergone earth-shaking changes, from a commoner to a noble.
But in Aizen's view, this is actually a sign of a lack of ambition.
If you are strong enough, why do you need to become the son-in-law and adopted son of a noble? Why do you need to curry favor with the nobles?
The so-called five nobles are just a group of carnivores enjoying the glory of their ancestors.
They are not necessarily nobler than the common people.
Even, in order to maintain the so-called honor of the nobility, it can be said to be unscrupulous.
Why did the Kuchiki family recruit Kuchiki Kōga as their son-in-law?
Isn't it because Kuchiki Sojun is not strong enough? He doesn't have enough strength, and the Kuchiki family wants to maintain the dignity of the nobility, so they choose this method.
Kuchiki Kōga entered the Kuchiki family as a genius and enjoyed the resources provided by the Kuchiki family.
But he also gave up a lot of things in disguise.
For example, from now on, he has no chance to be the captain of Gotei 13.
For example, he also gave up his last name.
Such people, even if they can become strong, are just thugs and lackeys of the nobles, and are despised by Aizen.
"Choosing the Sixth Division is indeed an unwise choice, unless Kuchiki Kōga changes to another division in the future." Arima continued in response to Aizen's words.
"Change a squad? Is this possible?"
Aizen obviously thinks this is impossible.
Since Kuchiki Kōga has become the son-in-law and adopted son of the Kuchiki family and a member of the Kuchiki family, he is destined to only stay in the Sixth Division.
"Who can tell clearly what will happen in the future?"
The corners of Arima's lips curled up slightly, looking incomprehensible.
Aizen raised his eyebrows slightly, instinctively sensing some clues in Arima's words.
He pondered for a while and then said to Arima: "It seems that the master has a different view?"
"Sōsuke, I don't know if you have ever heard of a saying called, 'The tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.'"
