Harry doesn't want to be a wizard, he wants to be a superhero

Chapter 321 Joining the 10th Division and Becoming the Third Seat!

Although everyone knows that he will eventually leave the squad he joined and join the First Division, the time he spent in a certain squad was also a deep bond.

With this bond, if Toshiro Hitsugaya becomes the Captain-Commander, he will definitely take extra care of the squad he used to belong to, and the Captain-Commander's care is a very considerable benefit for any squad.

Putting everything else aside, the funding, vacation time, and number of openings alone are enough to make the team leaders extremely excited.

Just as the team captains were talking amongst themselves, the freshmen graduation ceremony began.

In the auditorium of the Central Academy of Spiritual Arts, hundreds of soul candles burned like a golden galaxy under the dome, and the hems of the graduates' white school uniforms swept across the bluestone floor, making a neat rustling sound.

The principal, leaning on his wooden cane, walked onto the podium. The old man's spiritual pressure was like an ancient pool that had been settling for thousands of years, instantly silencing the noisy scene.

The principal spoke calmly:

"The gates of the Gotei 13 are open to you today. From today until the next three days, fill out five application forms in the order you wish to join. These five application forms will determine which squad you will ultimately join."

Remember, the requirements for each squad are different, but there is no distinction between high and low.

Of course, even if you fill out the application form, the squad you end up joining may not be one of the five squads listed.

That's because you failed the exam. The First Division will automatically assign you to the squads you're about to join.

That's all you need to know. Next, the captains of the 12th Division will take turns coming up to introduce their teams. You can then choose which team to join based on their explanations.

The principal's speech was concise and powerful, lacking any depth but packed with important information.

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked off the stage with his cane, leaving the podium to others.

The principal had just stepped down from the stage, and according to the order, it should have been the captain of the second division who gave the speech, but at this moment a big man suddenly stood up and walked towards the podium.

This was a tall and burly man, over two meters tall, who stood out like a small mountain in the crowd, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Even at this moment, he still carried his Zanpakuto on his shoulder, glancing around without any semblance of a captain's demeanor, before finally fixing his gaze on Harry and Toshiro Hitsugaya and saying:

"I am Kenpachi Zaraki, the captain of the 11th Division. I have come here for only one purpose, and that is..."

Hey, you're Harry Potter and Toshiro Hitsugaya, right? Come on, join the Eleventh Division and let's fight together!

Here I can give you the ultimate combat experience and the fastest speed to improve your strength. If you can kill me, then you might as well become the captain.

Kenpachi Zaraki did not deliberately increase his spiritual pressure, nor did he deliberately restrain it. Everyone closest to him felt a powerful sense of oppression, and even the teachers of the Central Academy of Spiritual Arts were forced to bend over slightly by the pressure.

Toshiro Hitsugaya was very uncomfortable with Kenpachi Zaraki's attitude. He glanced at Harry, who stood calmly beside him, and couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"What a beast."

But Harry laughed and said, "His talent is no less than yours, and he's even stronger than you in terms of spiritual pressure. If you want to become stronger, you might be able to join the Eleventh Division."

Upon hearing Harry's words, Toshiro Hitsugaya was taken aback. He looked Kenpachi Zaraki over carefully once more and no longer dared to underestimate him.

Others might not know, but he certainly knew Harry's true strength.

Even with his talent, Harry only described him as "good."

The spiritual pressure talent that Harry praised must be incredibly outstanding!
Kenpachi Zaraki's words still echoed under the dome, and Mayuri Kurotsuchi, the captain of the 12th Division, let out a piercing sneer, his eyes narrowed into slits:

"This guy's remarks are always so pointless, no wonder his team members have a mortality rate three times higher than other squads every year."

The other captains all heard what the captain of the 12th Division said, but none of them responded.

At that moment, Kyoraku Shunsui tilted his head back and took a swig of sake, the liquid dripping down his chin and into the collar of his courtesan's dress. He then shook his sake gourd and suddenly asked with a laugh:
"I wonder if Captain Unohana is interested in recruiting the two newcomers?"

Some of the captains, who had only recently become captains, looked at Kyoraku Shunsui with some confusion. They didn't know why he had suddenly mentioned Captain Unohana.

Captain Unohana is such a gentle person, and her squad is the Fourth Division, whose main responsibility is to heal the members of other squads. How could she possibly enhance these two students who are obviously more skilled in combat?
But to their surprise, Captain Unohana's reaction was completely different from usual.

Unohana's eyes were slightly closed, and within them was a light that the other captains found completely unfamiliar, a light that made them feel cold all over.

They had only ever felt this terror when facing the Captain-Commander.

"Perhaps, they are both good kids." Unohana smiled gently as always.

Kyoraku Shunsui let out a sound and then fell silent.

However, he made up his mind that even if he allowed these two geniuses to join the 11th and 12th Divisions, he would not allow them to join the 4th Division.

Otherwise, the Gotei 13 would definitely be in big trouble decades later.

After Kenpachi Zaraki left, it was Soi Fon, the captain of the 2nd Division, who took the stage.

Unlike Kenpachi Zaraki, or perhaps unlike most captains, she did not intend for Harry and Toshiro Hitsugaya to join her squad.

The reason is the same as for the Sixth Division. The Second Division is firmly controlled by the Shihōin family, and it is impossible for it to fall into the hands of anyone other than the Shihōin family's affiliated nobles.

The Sixth Division is controlled by the Kuchiki family, and it's impossible for them to hand over the captainship to someone else.

Whether it was to protect their own interests or to prevent the two geniuses from having no room to grow, they did not want them to join their squad.

Afterwards, the captain of the 10th Division, Shiba Isshin, took the stage to speak. His goal was the same as the other captains: to persuade Harry and Hitsugaya Toshiro to join the team.

As each team captain took the stage to speak, the atmosphere in the room became strange.

Although each captain doesn't talk about the advantages of their squad, they always offer the two students enviable extra benefits near the end.

The two students were Harry Potter, who was born six times, and Toshiro Banya, who was born once.

This scene sparked a lively discussion among the students:
"No wonder all twelve captains came to the graduation ceremony this year. In the past, only one or two captains would come at most. After all, the captains have such a high status, how could they possibly pay attention to us graduating students?"

"It's Harry and Hitsugaya... The captains actually want them."

"Did you hear that? Captain Zaraki said that killing him would make him captain... If it were me, I probably wouldn't even be able to withstand his spiritual pressure. Are these two really valued by Captain Zaraki that much?"

"Oh my god, did Captain Aizen just smile at Harry? And Captain Kyoraku even made a promise..." "More than that, look at Captain Unohana's gaze, like she's looking at a rare medicinal herb!"

"They...these captains all look so scary. Will they fight each other over Harry and Hitsugaya? If the captains really start fighting, will we get caught in the crossfire?"

"I wish I could be chosen by so many captains..."

The entire auditorium was like a pool of cold water into which a scalding iron ball had been thrown; the surface appeared calm, but underneath surged feelings of awe, envy, and reverence.

The students' eyes darted back and forth between Harry, Hitsugaya, and the captains.

They all knew that this was probably the closest they could get to these two people.

After graduation, they will most likely be promoted directly to the position of Seat Officer, or even the Third Seat, while they will have to start as ordinary Grim Reapers.

That's so enviable.

After all twelve team leaders gave their speeches, the students returned to their dormitories and submitted their college application forms.

In the end, Harry still chose to join the 10th Division, not because of Matsumoto Rangiku's seduction, but mainly because he discovered that the captain of the 10th Division seemed to have some problems.

He will be leaving the company soon.

Before that, he might be able to challenge Captain Shiba and directly become the captain of the 10th Division.

Of course, at his suggestion, Hinamori Momo eventually joined the 10th Division with him.

Toshiro Hitsugaya joined the 13th Division at Harry's suggestion.

Through six years of observation, Harry discovers that there seems to be a huge secret behind an accident decades ago.

He also believes that the captains and vice-captains who defected back then are likely not dead and are probably hiding in reality.

If Toshiro Hitsugaya could join the Thirteenth Division, he could stay in the human world for a long time and help him investigate information about the captains and vice-captains.

These captains and vice-captains, if they could be recruited, would become a tremendous force for Harry.

As expected, after seeing Harry's application, the Tenth Division immediately approved it, and he successfully joined the Tenth Division.

Inside the office of the 10th Division Captain, Captain Shiba Isshin, Vice-Captain Matsumoto Rangiku, Harry, and Hinamori Momo were all present.

Staring at the handsome and tall young man in front of him, Shiba felt extremely happy.

The Shiba family is one of the four great noble families in Soul Society, and almost every generation has a captain serving in that position.

However, due to their status as one of the four noble families, the Shiba family can only have one captain per generation. This is because if the Shiba family had two captains, the balance of Soul Society would be broken, and some people do not want to see the fallen Shiba family rise again.

However, Yi Xin had a brilliant nephew, who was the previous genius who had already reached the sixth level of spiritual power upon entering the academy.

As a nephew, he could have been a captain long ago, but because his uncle is already a captain, he cannot become the second captain of the Shiba family.

Therefore, he also had to make way for his nephew, Shiba Kaien.

In addition, he no longer wanted to be the captain; he wanted to go and travel around the real world.

The Soul Society has remained unchanged for thousands of years, which is incredibly boring. He doesn't want his life to be imprisoned here.

Therefore, at some point he will definitely resign from his position as captain, or he will disappear from Soul Society without saying goodbye and escape to the human world.

However, he also had feelings for the 10th Division. After he resigned as captain, there was no one in the 10th Division who was capable of being the next captain.

Matsumoto Rangiku's strength is not up to par; she is far from being the captain, and the others are even further behind.

Once he leaves, the 10th Division will be left in an awkward situation without a captain, which is something he doesn't want to see.

So after Harry appeared, he ordered his vice-captain to do everything in his power to recruit Harry and try to get him into the 10th Division.

Surprisingly, his vice-captain proved reliable for once, actually getting Harry into the Tenth Division.

So after he leaves, Harry will soon become the next captain of the 10th Division, and then he can leave with a clear conscience to enjoy life in the real world.

Suddenly, Shiba Isshin slapped Harry on the shoulder with such force that the surrounding air vibrated. He grinned, revealing white teeth, his stubble turning a dark bluish-black in the sunlight.
"Kid, not bad! Rangiku didn't lie to me, she really has an eye for talent. With your current strength, you can be a vice-captain or even a captain!"
"I'll reserve the captaincy of the 10th Division for you. Once you've fully matured, I'll resign immediately, and you'll become the next captain of the 10th Division."

Shiba Isshin's reaction was exactly what Harry had expected.

Harry smiled and replied, "Captain Shiba, I'll do my best."

Shiba nodded in satisfaction, then asked, "I know you're strong; you should be at the vice-captain level now, right?"

In fact, Harry is among the strongest of the captains, but he cannot reveal his strength now, otherwise it would alert Soul Society and make it even more difficult to devour this world.

He scratched his head somewhat shyly and replied, "Probably, but I don't know for sure, since I've never sparred with the vice-captain."

Hearing Harry's words, Shiba Isshin's eyes lit up. He immediately looked at Matsumoto Rangiku beside him, raised an eyebrow, and said:

"Rangiku, why don't you have a match with Harry and see just how good he really is?"

Matsumoto Rangiku refused without hesitation: "Huh? Captain Shiba, what did you say? I didn't hear you. Oh, by the way, Harry, don't forget to have a drink together after get off work."

Shiba Isshin shook his head helplessly, then suddenly thought of his nephew. Perhaps he could let him fight Harry to see how strong Harry really was.
Of course, his nephew's strength should have reached the captain level by now, and he doesn't think Harry would be a match for his nephew.

But what he wanted was for Harry to be defeated by his nephew. Geniuses are proud, and a defeat could temper his temper.

Then, the great Captain Shiba will teach Harry, and under his guidance, Harry will be able to grow to the captain level much faster.

Zhibo felt incredibly smart!
In the following days, a piece of news spread throughout the Soul Society—Toshiro Hitsugaya, along with Harry Potter, became the third seat of the 10th and 13th Divisions.

Besides this news, another piece of news has been widely circulated.

A week later, Vice Captain Shiba Kaien will face off against Harry in the third seat.
