Kurotsuchi Mayuri and Urahara Kisuki: Teacher and disciple
Kurotsuchi Mayuri looked up upon Urahara Kisuki as his teacher – a teacher teaching him many things about science… resurrection from the dead… creation of devices and living beings alike for the good of Soul Society. He helped in the creation of a device that could break the barrier of hollows and shinigami, following in the footsteps of the First President of Research Institute of Technology in Soul Society, becoming his vice-president.
But everything broke down into pieces in his third year with him. The 12th division captain was exiled for creating the device and also creating a gigai that had no spiritual matter, not able to recover the spiritual powers of a shinigami; instead gradually decreasing the spiritual powers of the shinigami using it and eventually fusing with it… the second creation not known to the vice-president at all.
As Urahara Kisuki left the Soul Society to be exiled to the material world, Kurotsuchi Mayuri was left a letter by him. And the latter knew everything… the older shinigami knew of the danger of Hougyoku as it defied all logics within Soul Society – a tool able to instantaneously turn hollows into shinigamis and vice versa – and was wanting to destroy it, hence the creation of the special gigai… All these done behind his back as Urahara was scared that Mayuri would not be able to handle the problems and the risk they would have to take to work together for this common goal.
Urahara knew he could be exiled, so could not put Mayuri on the same risk as he was, hence he dared not tell Mayuri. It was for the good of the vice-president. However the latter could not accept this excuse and started to harbour a hatred for him… aiming to be a much better researcher than his 'teacher'.
He would do anything to research on anything under the sun. He would love to create more inventions that his 'teacher' could, hence could not stop experimenting on many various things, including himself.
There should be no regrets for him, except that he could not gain the trust of the former Division 12 captain…
