Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

In the barracks of the First Squad, Chojiro Sasaki, who had narrowly escaped death, was hiding inside, panting heavily!

Fortunately, he trained under Mao Zhilie for a full two and a half months. After experiencing many brushes with death, his other skills did not improve much, but his ability to escape did improve a lot!

"It'll be good to be back in the First Division!"

"Captain Shikatori, they shouldn't be able to break in..."

After returning to the First Division barracks, Chojiro wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

After all, the First Squad's barracks were guarded by the esteemed Lord Genryuzai!

Even the captains of other squads would never dare to step into this place without Captain-Commander Yamamoto's orders...

However, it seems that after experiencing the life-or-death race against Shikatori Hagensai, Chojiro Sasaki's Shunpo, which had been stuck in a bottleneck, has begun to loosen up again...

Indeed, a great breakthrough occurred between life and death! This is no exaggeration!

Two chapters, 7,000 words each! First, let's celebrate that this book has reached 100,000 words! Then, the Yhwach invasion arc is expected to begin within the next two chapters.

By the way, I'd like to ask for some votes! Considering I've worked so hard to write 7,000 words, please give me a vote! Every vote from you readers will speed up the arrival of YH!

In short, I will work hard to write well~ and thank you all for your support~

Chapter 33 High-level hunters often appear as prey.

The Sixth Division barracks.

With a violent spiritual pressure erupting like boiling water, Araki, like an invincible demon, smashed through the gates of the Gotei 6 barracks...

"You, you're Captain Araki of the Eleventh Division?!"

"The captain of the 11th Division, isn't that the new 'Kenpachi'?"

"The new captain of the 11th Division is named Araki, right? In other words, it's Araki 'Kenpachi,' isn't it? What's such a ruthless person doing in our 6th Division?!"

"Is there any need to say more? Our captain has probably done something earth-shattering again!"

"Shh! You lot, keep your voices down and don't say another word! Be careful not to get dragged into something that we little people shouldn't be involved in!"

The members of the Gotei 6th Division, looking at the ferocious Araki, all retreated in fear, lest they be taught a lesson by Araki for the foolish things their stupid captain had done.

Because the members of the Sixth Division knew their exceptionally intelligent captain very well and were extremely perceptive, Araki proceeded unimpeded to the gate of the Sixth Division barracks.

"Bang~"

With a muffled thud, Araki kicked open the door in front of him.

"Um?!"

Inside the Sixth Division's barracks, Saito, the immortal captain of the Sixth Division, was slumped over his desk, embracing his files, taking a 'nap'. With the booming sound of Araki's kick, Saito slowly opened his eyes.

"Who dares to disturb my afternoon nap?!"

As soon as Saito, who was immortal, opened her eyes, she didn't care who had woken her up. Instead, she vented her morning grumpiness at Araki, who was standing at the entrance of the captain's room.

"Ha ha……"

Araki sneered at this and immediately disappeared from the spot.

"Hmm? I woke up really fast, I think I just saw Araki!"

As for Saito, who had just woken up, her brain was still in a daze.

"You're the one who told Captain Shikatori that my body can regenerate like a lizard's tail, right?!"

Before Saito could think any further, a chilling voice rang in her ears.

"Forehead……"

Saito froze on the spot upon hearing that familiar voice.

"It seems I wasn't mistaken just now..."

Cold sweat streamed down Saito's forehead. She couldn't be mistaken; the voice was indeed Araki's.

"what!"

Before Saito could think any further, she felt her twin ponytails being gripped tightly behind her. The intense tearing pain extinguished the last trace of drowsiness in Saito, waking her up completely.

"I was wrong! I didn't mean to tell Shikatri! I was just drunk that day and was just joking with him..."

After being seized by Araki's twin tails, Saito, who was immortal, immediately chose to surrender.

"I told you you didn't do it on purpose, I told you you didn't do it on purpose, I told you you didn't..."

"Go and explain yourself to Shikata! Give me back my lost innocence!"

Araki's anger flared upon hearing this; he was truly furious.

That Saito girl, she's really something else! It seems he'll have to set aside some time each week to have a serious talk with Saito about the family's 'younger brother' position...

"I know, I know……"

Saito indicated his compliance.

Outside the headquarters of the Sixth Division.

"What do you mean now?!"

Some soldiers were lying on the door of the captain's room, listening to the sounds inside, their expressions changing repeatedly.

"Wait……"

Upon hearing this, the team members looked at each other and finally came to the conclusion that they should "wait a while".

"Are we, the members of the Sixth Division, just going to stand here and watch our Captain be bullied by the Captains of other Divisions?!"

Upon hearing this, one of the officers was furious. Didn't the Sixth Division soldiers have any dignity?!

"You want to be a 'hero'? Then hurry up and go in to save our captain! Maybe he'll be so pleased that he'll even make you vice-captain!"

The members of the Sixth Division utterly disdainful of this.

"Forehead……"

"I mean, there's nothing wrong with us listening here."

Upon hearing this, the officer decisively abandoned his lofty ideal of saving their leader...

Nonsense! The man inside who's 'riding' on their captain, grabbing his twin tails, and asking if he was wrong or not, is none other than the current 'Kenpachi' of the Gotei 13!

In other words, aside from Captain-Commander Yamamoto, the strongest Shinigami in the Seireitei, would be throwing his life away if he went up alone against such a formidable opponent! Of course, if they could mobilize all the members of the Sixth Division to fight Araki together, then they might have a sliver of hope…

Don't misunderstand, it's not that they have any hope of defeating Araki! It's just that their Sixth Division has enough members. Even with Araki's strength, before the Captain-Commander discovers the Sixth Division's troubles and intervenes, Araki might not be able to defeat all the members of their Sixth Division...

However, since none of the other members of the Sixth Division showed any intention of taking action, he didn't need to show off. He should just quietly do his job.

Not long after, the door to the Sixth Division's captain's room was pushed open forcefully, and Araki walked out of the room looking refreshed, leaving behind only the one inside who looked like he had been thoroughly messed up—the first captain of the Sixth Division, Saito Immortal.

"Woo..."

When the members of the Sixth Division saw Araki walk out of the squad leader's room, they all lowered their heads. They dared not look up at the peerless villain who had barged into their quarters and defeated their squad leader.

"Shh!"

Fortunately, Araki didn't intend to make things difficult for these Sixth Division members. After all, every wrong has its perpetrator, and Araki didn't like killing innocent people indiscriminately! With a spatial fluctuation, Araki's figure disappeared from the spot, leaving behind an ordinary wooden plank.

"Ugh……"

As Araki departed, the members of the Sixth Division looked at each other, and finally, with a series of long sighs, began their daily afternoon work.

If you can't see it, then just pretend you can't see it! I'm outta here...

time flies.

Several more months have passed in a flash...

During this time, whenever Araki had free time, he would come to the Sixth Division to have a 'chat' with Saito about life.

So much so that the members of the Sixth Division had gradually gotten used to Araki's arrival.

In addition, following Araki's advice, Saito privately explained the situation to Shikatori Hakunsai, the captain of the 8th Division. After racking his brains, Saito finally managed to explain the matter to Shikatori! Shikatori was furious about this!

Ultimately, under Saito's reluctant gaze and tormented by her own conscience, she chose to personally purchase ten of Shikatori's latest and best-selling "Liu Bei" novels. This barely quelled Shikatori's anger, and they reached a reconciliation...

After receiving the ten copies of "Liu Bei" texts from Saito, Shikatori found Araki and Sasakibe's son, Chojiro, and expressed his apologies to them.

Chojiro Sasaki expressed his 'fear' and 'overwhelmed' response.

For a moment, it seemed that everyone except Saito, who was immortal, had achieved a perfect ending! How wonderful! It seems that a world where only Saito, immortal and injured, was born…

However, the truth is...

Inside the Sixth Division barracks.

"Now, Araki will make time to come here every month!"

Saito seems to revel in his immortality.

Yes, high-level hunters often appear as prey...

Just like a certain hairspray expert, before he slathered his head with hairspray, almost none of the captains of Team Thirteen would have suspected that he was the real mastermind behind it all.

Compared to Saito's seemingly ageless and carefree existence, Araki appeared somewhat weary...

He was already exhausted from constantly using his Observation Haki and spending time each week sparring with Uno Retsu to strengthen their bond. Now, he also had to make time every month to go to Saito's immortal place...

Araki felt like his body was being hollowed out.

Until, several more months passed in a flash...

On this day, Araki leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window of the Eleventh Division Captain's room, as usual.

Just as Araki was dozing off with his eyes half-closed...

A scene from the future, presented frame by frame like a PowerPoint presentation, suddenly jolted Araki awake, completely dispelling his sleepiness. It was a warning brought about by Araki's advanced Observation Haki!

"It's finally here?! My months of waiting were worth it!"

"...The sky is empty!"

Araki, facing the image reflected in his mind, didn't say much and simply raised his left hand.

As ink smeared across Araki's left arm, a transparent wall with a 'swivel' pattern of black ink appeared before him. Instantly, all the Gotei 13 soldiers enveloped by Araki's spiritual pressure received a message in their minds...

First team team building.
