Chapter 215 If You Still Want to Become Stronger
After that, Aize and Kuchiki Byakuya stopped talking. One of them hugged his arms and leaned against the wall, while the other closed his eyes and waited quietly for time to pass.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes, Chojiro Suzuki came to inform them that the captain's inauguration ceremony could begin.
The two moved to the room where the captains gathered and walked into it after the lifting door was raised.
The scene was just like the last time Aize came, full of heavy air and spiritual pressure.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was in the middle, with the captains of the 2nd, 4th, 5th and 7th divisions standing on his left, and the captains of the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th divisions standing on his right.
Aize looked at Kenpachi Zaraki standing in the middle, and his eyebrows couldn't help but slightly raised.
The battle maniac's injuries seemed to have completely healed. He was standing between Isshin Shiba and Mayuri Kurotsuchi, showing a ferocious smile to Aize, looking eager to fight Aize again.
Aize would of course ignore him. After glancing at him, he was immediately attracted by another person.
That was the person who didn't come here last time and missed the party.
He had long white hair over his shoulders, and looked like a man under 30 years old. He was slender and elegant, and his face was completely opposite to Kenpachi Zaraki, and was very similar to Sosuke Aizen in gentleness.
He was the captain of the 13th Division, Ukitake Jushiro, who often missed the captain's meeting due to physical reasons.
At the captain's inauguration ceremony, the captain of the 13th Division who often missed the meeting finally appeared. When Aize looked at him, he immediately responded with a friendly smile, which made people vaguely feel close. At first glance, you would think he was a person who was easy to get along with.
"Is he Ukitake Jushiro?"
Aize secretly observed the other party for a while and found that the other party's presence and atmosphere seemed very weak, and the spiritual pressure gave people a feeling that he would fall down if the wind blew.
Such a person should not appear in this place where the top group of death gods in the entire Soul Society are gathered.
However, Aize, who is familiar with the original work, knows very well that the other party looks weak, but in fact, like Kyoraku Shunsui, he is one of the best among the captains, and there are even more special things about him, which is definitely not something that others can despise.
"Bang!"
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni knocked the wooden stick while Aize was observing Ukitake Jushiro, making the bottom of the wooden stick collide with the floor and make a loud sound.
"Come here, tell me your name."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's serious voice was exchanged for the action of Aize and Kuchiki Byakuya raising their heads together.
"I'm the new captain of the Gotei 13's third division, Aize."
Aize responded calmly.
"I'm the new captain of the Gotei 13's sixth division, Byakuya Kuchiki."
Byakuya Kuchiki repeated expressionlessly.
"Very good." Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni seemed to want this effect. He nodded and said, "From today on, you will be the captains of the Gotei 13. As the people standing at the top of the Shinigami, you must fulfill your responsibilities."
"Captain Ai of the third division."
"Captain Kuchiki of the sixth division."
"Return to your positions."
As Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni finished speaking, Aize and Byakuya Kuchiki walked to the team on his left and stood in their own positions.
This is the regular standing position, with Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, the captain-in-chief, as the leader. There are six captains standing on his left and six captains standing on his right. The order is calculated by the number.
Like Kuchiki Byakuya, he is the captain of the 6th Division, and beside him are the captains of the 5th Division and the 7th Division, namely Aizen Sosuke and Komamura Sajin.
Aize is the captain of the 3rd Division, so on his left and right are Soi Fong, the captain of the 2nd Division, and Unohana Retsu, the captain of the 4th Division.
When he returned to his position, one of them just stood there coldly, saying nothing, as if ignoring Aize, and the other smiled at Aize gently, showing the demeanor of a mature woman.
Of course, Aize is still very clear that the true personalities of these two people are actually completely opposite to their outward appearance.
At first glance, Soi Fong, who looks cold, is actually a person who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and is not as cold and ruthless as others seem.
At first glance, Unohana Retsu, who looks gentle and kind, has an evil spirit deep in his heart that almost no one can subdue, and may break free at any time.
There are quite a few people like this among the captains.
Some people who look very gentle, how cold they are in fact, only they themselves know.
Some people who look very righteous may have actually gone astray, and they may not realize it yet.
Some people look lazy and unserious, but they are actually smarter than anyone else and are good at using their brains. Some people even hide their true identities and dare not even reveal their faces, but they have a more positive heart than anyone else.
Guys like Kenpachi Zaraki who completely reveal their true character and are consistent inside and out are actually a minority among the thirteen captains.
It's a pity that this guy is a lunatic. From this point of view, he is also very dangerous.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who didn't know what Aize was thinking, looked at the captains wearing white feathers lined up in columns on both sides, and a rare trace of satisfaction and joy appeared in his eyes.
"After decades, the captain position of the Gotei 13 is finally full again, filling all the vacancies."
"But, you must remember not to repeat the past mistakes and trample on the dignity of the Gotei 13."
"You must always remember that you are the pillars of Soul Society. Only when you stand firm, Soul Society will not collapse."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni knocked the wooden stick again, and the sound rang slowly and loudly.
"The captain's inauguration ceremony ends here, and then..."
Next, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni mentioned a few things.
For example, the investigation results of the accident encountered by the sixth-year and first-year students of the Shinō Academy of Spiritual Arts during their internship a while ago.
Unfortunately, the result was nothing.
No matter how the Second Division and the Eighth Division investigated, and how the Twelfth Division tracked, they were ultimately unable to find the culprit of the accident, and could only judge some of the other party's intentions based on the existing intelligence.
The other party deliberately cut off the connection between Soul Society and the students who were participating in the internship, opened the barrier of the internship site, and sent the Hollow into it. The purpose was undoubtedly to do something cruel to the students.
Whether this was aimed at only one of them or all the people who were participating in the internship at that time has not yet been concluded.
But what is certain is that the other party must be very familiar with Soul Society, the Soul Society, and even the structure of the Gotei 13, otherwise it would not be possible to cut off the connection between Soul Society and the outside world so easily, and then cause the incident without anyone noticing.
In addition, after the Technology Development Bureau studied the Hollows that appeared at the scene of the accident, it was basically confirmed that they had all undergone artificial modification, and their ability to hide spiritual pressure was the result of this modification.
But it is still a pity that the 12th Division could not study what kind of technology the other party used and what kind of theory and concept they used to complete this matter. Even Kuroshitaro Mayuri only found some residual traces that were not even scraps, so it is impossible to tell who did it at all.
As for what the other party wanted to achieve by doing this, the squads still hadn't figured it out.
Such an unsatisfactory investigation result naturally made Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni very dissatisfied.
But he didn't give up directly, but again asked the squads to continue to cooperate with the investigation, and then talked about other things.
After bringing up these things one by one and discussing the results on the spot, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni announced the disbandment.
The captains left the room. Like last time, some talked to each other, some left silently, some came to greet the new captain Aize, and some ignored him. Their attitudes were obvious in all senses.
Especially Kenpachi Zaraki, this guy really entangled with Aize as expected.
"Let's fight again! Aize!"
Kenpachi Zaraki shouted at Aize excitedly, as if he had forgotten the pain after the scar healed.
"You won't refuse, right?"
Faced with the chattering Kenpachi Zaraki, Aize was naturally not in a good mood.
"No, please allow me to refuse." Aize said bluntly: "I don't think you have grown to the point where you can defeat me in just one month."
"If you want to challenge me, you'd better go back and become stronger before coming."
Aize's words did not dissuade Kenpachi Zaraki at all.
No mistake, one song, one post, one content, one look!
"Of course, you have to fight to know that kind of thing." Kenpachi Zaraki grinned and said: "If you want to become stronger, you naturally have to fight. What is easier to make people stronger than fighting with a strong enemy?"
...This kind of thing should only be done by you, right?
Aize knows that Kenpachi Zaraki is a genius in fighting. The more he fights, the stronger he will become, but other people can't do such a thing.
No, that's not right, it seems that I can do it too, right?
Thinking of the time when he traveled around the world and challenged various mythical forces in the world of Demon High School, Aize remembered that because his body potential was stimulated and developed by the power of dragon, the more fierce battles he experienced, the stronger his strength became.
So, he and Kenpachi Zaraki are the same type?
Looking at Kenpachi Zaraki who was grinning and sticking in front of him, Aize narrowed his eyes.
"Forget it." He curled his lips and said, "If you really want to become stronger, you should go back and think of a way to find out the name of your Zanpakuto first."
Kenpachi Zaraki was stunned.
"Zanpakuto?"
He didn't seem to expect Aize to say that.
"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all, right?" Kenpachi Zaraki frowned and said, "Zanpakuto is just a tool for fighting, and it doesn't need to be..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Aize.
"Zanpakuto is just a tool for fighting. It doesn't need a name at all. As long as it can be used to cut people, it's enough. You have always thought so, right?" Aize shook his head and said, "Then let me ask you, Zaraki, do you like fighting?"
"Of course."
Zaraki Kenpachi answered without hesitation.
Then, Aize threw a sentence to Zaraki Kenpachi in a way that could not be more direct.
"Since you like fighting so much, why don't you even want to know the name of the tool that can help you fight?"
When these words came out, Zaraki Kenpachi was completely stunned.
Seeing this, Aize spoke with a serious heart.
"I won't say something cliché like the Zanpakuto is our partner, the other half who fights alongside us."
"How you want to treat your Zanpakutō is a personal matter, and others should not be qualified to make irresponsible remarks."
"But, Zaraki, if you really want to challenge me, if you don't free your Zanpakutō and your true power, then with all due respect, you won't be able to defeat me."
This is true.
After all, in the last battle with Zaraki Kenpachi, Aizawa didn't even use the Zanpakutō's Haikaki, let alone the Swastika.
He didn't even use Kidō. He only used Zhanjutsu, Shunpo and Reiatsu to collide with Kenpachi Zaraki head-on, and defeated the opponent in an almost crushing manner.
In this case, how can the other party defeat him?
"...I have other moves that I haven't used yet."
Zaraki Kenpachi's lips moved a few times, and then he said these words.
This is also true.
At least, Aizawa knew that Zaraki Kenpachi had been taught by Yamamoto Genryanagi Sai Shigekuni, and had spent some time with the strongest Shinigami in the millennium.
If Kenpachi Zaraki had used kendo, maybe he wouldn't lose so quickly anymore, right?
However, whether you lose quickly or lose slowly, you will still lose in the end.
Anyway, Aizawa is not very interested in the current Zaraki Kenpachi, unless the opponent can free the Zanpakutō, then it is still somewhat interesting.
"Try to do something you haven't done before, Zaragi." Aize said calmly: "If you still want to become stronger."
After saying that, Aize said no more, turned around and left here, leaving Zaraki Kenpachi there in deep thought.
However, before Ai Ze could go far, he met another person.
"team leader."
A woman wearing a deputy team badge on her arm appeared in front of Aize.
She was a woman who exuded the aura of the underworld, like a wife of the Yakuza, who made people feel a little afraid.
Ai Ze took a look at the opponent's deputy team badge and found that the number "three" was embroidered on it.
That's right, this is the vice-captain of the third division, Aize's adjutant.
"Are you the Archer Sentetsu?"
Aize had already learned about the other party's existence from the mouth of Takuchojiro.
"I am Qian Tie."
Shooting range Qiantie looked at Aize with stern eyes, as if tasting something, and said something.
"I'm here to take you back to the team building."
Hearing this, Aize nodded.
"Let's go, take me to the team building."
