Rukongai is the larger part of the Soul Society, consisting of 320 districts (80 to the west, 80 to the north, etc.). Most of the rules that apply in the Seireitei apply here as well, but the further one travels from the Seireitei, the less those rules matter. The higher-numbered districts are little more than slums and ghettos where anything goes, and the weak are not encouraged to travel to or through them.
