Yoruichi was resting when she received a notification and when she looked at it, it was Kisuke's request to talk.
After a few minutes of preparation, a call ca in and Yoruichi imdiately answered, "You're contacting because sothing urgent ca up?"
[Yeah. Sothing pretty big actually.] Kisuke then proceeded to relay what he had heard from Seraselbes and with each passing mont, cold sweat accumulated on Yoruichi's back, [And that's the gist of it. I'd like you to confirm if the one giving commands is indeed the Holy Father, Resetoras.]
"...I already had a suspicion that sothing changed within their command hierarchy so I asked those Etoulde girls about it. While the Luxeux kid had no idea, the Yarwood kid pretty much confird that it's now the Holy Father who has taken the reins." Yoruichi then explained to Kisuke how the Holy Mother had to take a step back and the Holy Father took charge because of Draconic Deus' potential to connect to countless worlds.
[How did you notice that sothing is different?]
"I started becoming suspicious when Issei-kun's position slowly beca irrelevant and Shiva's position strengthened."
Kisuke over the line beca silent to arrange his thoughts, 'No wonder they could disband the DxD Team and dissolve the Alliance this easily. Shiva was probably in favor of this too to take in so talents for himself.'
[Which part of the DxD Team moved to either Shiva and Indra?]
"It still isn't confird but there are rumors floating around that the Hero Faction is going to Shiva's faction while the Buddha Faction is taking Indra's side."
[I see... It's about ti that both sides beco saturated. Indra is probably already looking for the chance to spark a battle.] In those few seconds, several ideas imdiately floated around Kisuke's head about how he would set up the stage for them and hopefully drag those behind them along to the light. However, he'll need more 'pawns' to make it happen and he first had to make sure the stance of all those involved, [By the way, where's Stralit and her companion?]
"They decided to settle down in the Dungeon World for now to avoid attention. I gave them your Reiatsu Cloaking Bracelets and tweaked them according to your specifications so It'd work for Etouldes."
[Did it work?]
Yoruichi nodded, "It did, but only within a certain threshold. A slight exertion of their Spiritual Power will imdiately reveal their identities."
[Send the logs. The hardware on those bracelets should still be capable of more so I'll try to update the program and add more paraters.]
"I'll arrange it as soon as I return to your lab. Oh, and another matter. Aizen just tried to snatch Gwenn when we were eting. I didn't notice that he was tracking ."
But instead of getting worried, Kisuke started chuckling, [You let your guard down, huh? You thought Ophis and Lilith were enough to keep him in check.]
Yoruichi pouted and grumbled, "Those two are a lot more lenient than I thought."
[Since you're talking about how you're settling those two down, you managed to fend him off?]
"Yes, with Aika simultaneously using her Bankai and Outrage."
[...That nasty form? He'll probably think twice after experiencing that Super Strength, selective Phase Change, and Ability Silence even if he's an undying immortal.]
"I don't know if he did, but he stopped bothering us. The Etoulde managing the Draconic Deus forces, Alicia Crowfeather, disappeared so he probably opted for her."
[Then it won't be long before Aizen realizes the true nature of our enemies. Since there will be hardly anything he could do aningfully alone, he'll probably look for others he could use.]
"So what now?"
[Depending on how Crowfeather-san reacts, he'll either go back to the Soul Society or find a way to move forward further behind the frontlines... If he chooses the forr, he'd need to go through the gate. Please wait for him there and tell him about Ajuka and Azazel.]
Yoruichi was a bit apprehensive about this, "Is that alright?"
[Yep. Tell him that there's a chance for him to challenge a so-called 'God' that seeks to eliminate those with Spiritual Abilities.]
"...Which one are you talking about?"
Kisuke grinned, [Both.]

In addition to the ryokan that Tenjirou built, there's also an additional building on the Ouroboros Floating Island. Its tallic do is 100 ters wide and 30 ters tall painted pure white. It was not far from the ryoukan but it didn't receive the attention that the forr did. And within Ouroboros Academy's own records, this do was only used to contain raw materials for the ryoukan and it wasn't even that heavily guarded.
And if one were to infiltrate it, they'd only find specially treated construction materials that are a bit sensitive to an open-air environnt. They are expensive materials that only the richest faction could afford to use for their constructions but it's almost nothing of value for those looking for anything other than monetary value.
But within a small subsection of this place is an obscured door that leads to a small room.
"Hmmm... I would guess that you've already talked to Urahara." Aizen who secretly entered the do along with a black-haired young lady stopped just before they reached the door.
Guarding the door was Yoruichi seemingly bored of waiting, "Well, you're right about that." She replied shortly before turning her gaze to the young lady, "It has been a while, Miss Alicia. I hope he didn't hurt you too much."
The young lady with a dark expression returned her gaze, "...Yoruichi... As expected... You know this guy. Can I assu that he's your comrade?"
Yoruichi shrugged her shoulders, "I would if he wasn't such a traitorous bastard that only listens when it's convenient for him."
Alicia gritted her teeth, "Then can you at least try saving from him? I promise to return the favor to the best of my ability."
"You're a skilled and smart person. You should already have so idea what this guy could do." Yoruichi could only give a wry smile to her pleas.
Alicia clenched her teeth and wanted to try escaping again. However, after rembering the aura Aizen released and how nonchalant he dismissed her every attempt until now, she imdiately lost all of her motivation, '...Is he really at the level of those from the Holy Family? But how is that possible and where did he co from?'
Yoruichi stared at Alicia for a few monts before coming to a decision. She turned her eyes towards Aizen and said, "I only intended to inform you of a few things but it would seem that it would be better for to co with you."
There was no change in Aizen's expression so Yoruichi could guess what he was thinking. He only stayed silent for a few seconds before cracking a small smile, "Are you sure you can leave this place? I'm of the impression that ti is not on your side."
"I'll be fine. I won't be gone for long and I want to make sure that you don't assu the wrong things and ss things up. Besides, I had a previous deal with that Etoulde. It'll go smoother if you can give her so sort of benefit for all of this, right?"
"Hmmm... I guess that's true." Aizen nodded to himself, "Lead the way."
Yoruichi imdiately turned around and started opening the obscured door while raising her voice, "I'll take it from here, Ophis, Lilith."
From the outside of the do, the 'twin' humanoid Dragons looked at each other before walking away. They're free so they wanted to eat sothing good and decided to look for Claire.
