Chapter 81: Noble

A captain-level combatant—there's no way the aristocrats would simply let him die.
It didn't matter how many ordinary rebels perished, but every captain-class Shinigami lost was one too many.
Retsu Unohana nodded, though her smile remained unchanged.
"The sinner, Takasugi Hirofumi, conspired to commit treason and disrupt the political order. He attempted to assassinate the 3rd Seated Officer of the 2nd Division of the Gotei 13. His crimes are heinous. He is sentenced to 3,000 years of imprisonment in the Nest of Maggots."
"So that guy's name is Takasugi Hirofumi... and he really was spared..." Masatsuki Aozaki muttered to himself, then suddenly froze as something felt off.
"Wait...! He's being sent to the Nest of Maggots?!"

This isn't how a sentence reduction works!
Anyone would know that the Nest of Maggots is under the jurisdiction of the Shihōin Clan—his jurisdiction.
They were practically handing Takasugi Hirofumi's life over to him.
