Chapter 206 Captains' Reactions
"Where am I going?"

The sudden topic made Aize raise his brows slightly.

"That's right." Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni nodded and said meaningfully, "Although you are still a child, you already have the ability to be independent. You don't need to stay in the Maou Spiritual Academy any longer."

Who would believe that a mere intern has the power to kill a Yachukas-level Hollow with one sword?
But the facts are in front of us, and signs from all sides have fully demonstrated that this matter is true. In this case, continuing to allow such an outstanding talent to stay in the ivory tower of the college is undoubtedly a waste of time and a squandering of resources.

"Graduate now." Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said solemnly, "Come to the Gotei 13. This is where you should be."

Originally, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni wanted to let Aize get rid of his hostility in the peaceful academy life and then recruit him to the Gotei 13.

However, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni had noticed Aize's performance in the past six months and had been paying attention to his affairs.

He discovered that although Aize came from the Zanmu District and had fought with so many villains, he was not as warlike and bloodthirsty as someone else. On the contrary, he was a very good person to get along with.

Abarai Renji, Kira Izuru, Hinamori Momo... These three people are all from Rukongai, and have more or less had some contact with Aize, but so far there has been no problem in getting along with each other, which shows that Aize is not a person with character problems.

In addition, Aize's strength is so extraordinary that he is probably the best in the Shinō Academy, not to mention the Gotei 13. So there is no need for him to stay in the academy any longer. It is more necessary for him to go to the Gotei 13 to receive further training.

So, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni took this opportunity to put forward this idea.

However, at this time, the real problem person could no longer hold back.

"I say, old man Shan, can such an important matter really be decided casually?"

The person who spoke at this time and showed no respect to Captain Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was the one who had been staring at Aize since he joined the team.

He has a ferocious face and a scar on his left cheek. The hem of the captain's haori he is wearing is jagged. His hair grows in clumps, standing upside down like a hedgehog. Each clump of hair has a small bell on it. Combined with the eyepatch on his right eye, his appearance is extremely bizarre.

"Captain of the 11th Division, Kenpachi Zaraki."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni glanced at the other party and told him his origins.

Yes.

This person is the captain of the 11th Division, Kenpachi Zaraki.

"Don't look at me like that, old man." Zaraki Kenpachi grinned, his face more ferocious than anyone else, and the aura he exuded was also more frantic than anyone else, like a beast that chooses its prey. He said, "Isn't this guy a student in the academy? And a first-year? Does this guy really have the strength to kill Yachukas with one sword?"

"I don't quite believe it."

Kenpachi Zaraki's words made all the captains present look at Aize.

They thought Kenpachi Zaraki's attitude was a little strange.

Because they knew Kenpachi Zaraki very well and knew that he was not someone who would do such a thing.

Questioning others' abilities and opposing the captain's decisions is not like Kenpachi Zaraki's usual style.

But among the captains, there were indeed a few who expressed doubts about Aize's ability.

"Not everyone is capable of carrying the banner of justice. For young people, this burden is still a bit too heavy."

The first person to agree with Kenpachi Zaraki was the captain of the 9th Division, Tosen Kaname.

He was a man with brown skin, purple hair, and goggles on his face.

The 9th Division is a prison division that is responsible for detaining and capturing serious criminals who pose a threat to the Soul Society. Although Tosen Kaname, the captain of the 9th Division, exudes a somewhat gloomy temperament, he seems to be a person who hates evil, so he said such words.

"Indeed, although I don't really want to doubt the captain's decision, Tou Sen's concerns are not unreasonable."

The person who spoke right after Tosen Kaname was the captain of the 7th Division, Komamura Sajin.

Komamura Sajin is a tall and burly man with an iron mask on his head, a captain's haori with a light-colored stand-up collar and shoulder pads on the collar and cuffs, and protective gear on the front of his limbs.

The Seventh Division is the Inner Court Guard, and its duty is to protect the Soul Society. In other words, it is a guard division. As the captain of the division, Komamura Sajin is obviously a person with a strong sense of justice and responsibility, and his remarks can be considered quite pertinent.

"Well, since Brother Ai looks so young, I think it would be better for him to continue to live a peaceful life in the academy."

The one who said this was the captain of the 10th Division, Isshin Shiba.

He was a man with short black hair, a thin face, a tall and strong build, and wearing a white sleeveless robe-type haori.

The Tenth Division is the patrol guard team, responsible for the inspection and patrol of Seireitei and even Rukongai. In short, it is a security team. As the captain of the team, Isshin Shiba's appearance also fits the impression of a security guard, but his attitude seems a little unserious.

These three captains are the ones who have expressed doubts about Aize's ability. Maybe they don't have any bad intentions, but they are still somewhat skeptical about the authenticity of the rumors.

Of course, where there are doubts, there are also supporters.

"Everyone, I don't think the captain is the kind of person who would promote others casually. Since he has decided to do this, it proves that he has done it after careful consideration. We should express more trust in this." It was a very gentle and peaceful voice.

The owner of the voice was a woman whose appearance was as gentle and peaceful as her voice. She had long black hair tied into a braid and hung down in front of her body, and she exuded a mature aura.

She is Unohana Retsu, the captain of the 4th Division, and also the god of death who is most proficient in Kaido and has the strongest healing ability in Soul Society.

"Captain Unohana feels the same way. As the person who has the most contact with Ai-kun, I can assure you that he is indeed a very capable talent. He graduated early from the Maou Spiritual Academy and is definitely qualified."

Aizen Sosuke followed Unohana Retsu and spoke up, giving Aize his strongest support.

"The information I heard from the students also proves his ability."

Kyoraku Shunsui said this with a smile, pressing the straw raincoat on his head.

These three people formed a subtle opposition with the four people who had just expressed doubts. If you didn't know, you would think they were forming factions and targeting each other.

Under such circumstances, Soi-Fong and Mayuri Kurotsuchi seemed to have no interest in this topic, nor in Aize himself. They just watched coldly from the sidelines. The captain of the Sixth Division also did not speak, but closed his eyes and remained silent.

Because the Sixth Division is a team exclusively for the nobles, it is responsible for matters related to the nobles. The captain of the team is a member of the Kuchiki family, which is known as the leader of the four great nobles. He really seems to have no interest in the affairs of civilians and naturally will not intervene in this topic.

It is said that he is ready to retire in the near future, and another genius from the Kuchiki family will inherit his position soon, so he is not too keen on the affairs of the Gotei 13 now, and just wants to spend his last period of service quietly.

As for the 3rd Division, which is a support team, and the 13th Division, which is a purification team, the captain position of the former is currently vacant, so no one is representing them. The latter has been seriously ill for many years and often misses various meetings due to health reasons, so he did not attend this time.

The ten captains each expressed their opinions, or silently stated their positions, creating an atmosphere of confrontation on the field.

Kenpachi Zaraki interrupted everyone as if he was getting impatient.

"Who cares whether he has the ability to graduate? What I'm talking about is whether he really has the ability to kill an Achukas with one strike!" Kenpachi Zaraki said, "That's an Achukas. Anyone who can kill that kind of Hollow with one strike must be at least a captain-level Shinigami, right?"

"You mean to say that a guy who is only halfway through his first year at the academy has the strength of a captain?"

"Anyway, I don't believe it!"

Kenpachi Zaraki's words made the captains' eyes flicker.

To be honest, this is the main thing they don't believe.

It's not that they don't believe the information of the Gotei 13, but it does feel unreal that a first-year student actually has the strength of a captain.

Even if the other party is the rumored second-class spiritual power, he should have the potential to grow into a captain, but how long has he been enrolled?

Half a year!

In just half a year, the other party has grown to the captain level?
Who would be willing to believe such a thing without seeing it with their own eyes?

Because they are all captains, they know how difficult it is to reach this level.

Anyway, most of them were unwilling to believe it. They didn't want to believe that the achievement they had worked so hard to achieve was actually achieved by a young boy who had only been in school for half a year.

"So what do you say we should do, Captain Zaraki?"

Unohana Retsu looked at Kenpachi Zaraki and asked this question.

Then, everyone saw it.

Seeing Kenpachi Zaraki smiled.

Smiling dangerously.

"If you want to know if this guy has the strength of a captain, there's nothing simpler, right?"

Kenpachi Zaraki's true colors were finally revealed.

"Why don't we just let this guy fight me?"

After hearing this, the captains finally understood why Kenpachi Zaraki, the battle maniac, would stand up and oppose Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's decision, contrary to his usual behavior.

It seems like he is waiting here?
"Hey! You're from Zaraki District too, right?"

Kenpachi Zaraki spoke to Aize, unable to hide his excitement.

"Then fight me and see who is the strongest swordsman in Zaraki!"
