Both start in hell: but their talents are multiplied a hundredfold.

"I'm here," the cool, sweet voice said.

Shen Jue said in a meaningful voice, "Where is the process for my proposal to build a luxury izakaya in Seireitei?"

"Checking..."

The AI ​​system Xiao Ai from Seireitei replied: "Your proposed 'Seireitei Luxury Izakaya Construction Plan' has been rejected by the Captain."

"The Captain-Commander left a message."

Xiao Ai paused for a moment, then played the captain's angry message: "You brat! Take your duties seriously!"

Shen Jue sighed, but lay down on the tatami mat and took out the new communication tool of the Seireitei. He sent a video of several burly bears from Chengdu dancing, surrounded by dozens of round-faced, bearded men, to his brother Kyoraku Shunsui.

Kyoraku Shunsui replied to Shen Jue with a "I'm speechless" emoji.

The Seireitei is quite different from the Seireitei in the original timeline of the Bleach world.

Shen Jue collaborated with Mayuri Kurotsuchi of the Technology Development Bureau to propose a "spiritual network mimicry architecture".

Using the Shinigami's own spiritual pressure as a power source and replacing binary code with Kido runes, a spiritual cloud network that can cover the entire Seireitei without the need for physical wiring is constructed.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi of the Technology Development Bureau initially scoffed at this, believing that using spiritual pressure for communication was a desecration of the dignity of the Shinigami.

However, Shen Jue demonstrated an experiment that simulated data packet transmission using spiritual wave fluctuations.

That is to break down a short demonic incantation into spirit particle fragments, and then instantly transmit and reassemble them between three different Grim Reapers through a specially made spirit particle router.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi's attitude underwent a 180-degree change.

He immediately mobilized the bureau's most skilled researchers in ghost path analysis and spiritual materials science to begin manufacturing the core equipment, the spiritual switch, according to the "layered protocol" blueprints provided by Shen Jue.

A simplified rune of the Sixty-One Binding Paths - Six Staff Light Prison was engraved on the surface of the Spirit Switch to stabilize the signal.

They also created a server array based on special spirit particle crystals that can automatically absorb free spirit particles in the environment as energy.

They even created a portable device called the Death Terminal.

The Death Terminal resembles a modern smartphone in appearance, but its casing is made of the same fabric as the Death Team uniforms, and the screen is made of a transparent Kido barrier, allowing users to input spiritual commands via touch.

At the same time, Shen Jue also led the development of supporting software, packaging and optimizing a series of software from the real world into Soul Society versions.

Of course, what the Grim Reapers upload most often are combat techniques, Kido insights, or hand-to-hand combat skills.

Currently, the Lingzi Network Mimicry Architecture is only open to Death.

The residents of the Soul Society are temporarily unable to make contact.

While the Technology Development Bureau was delighted with the birth of the mimicry architecture of the Spirit Network.

Aizen Sousuke took the initiative to approach Mayuri Kurotsuchi of the Technology Development Bureau.

He brought a seemingly ordinary jade pendant.

The jade pendant contains a blue flame that constantly changes shape, which Aizen calls the spirit particle consciousness, Ai.

Xiao Ai's core is a specially treated Hogyoku fragment. The surface of the fragment is engraved with tiny Kido runes. These runes are not used for attack or defense, but rather constitute a set of logical simulation programs.

It can determine a user's emotions by analyzing their spiritual pressure fluctuations, and then adjust its own response accordingly.

It can also learn new knowledge and language patterns by accessing the spiritual network mimicry architecture, and can even imitate the speaking styles of different Grim Reapers.

Originally intending to use the souls of sinners as "artificial" intelligence, Mayuri Kurotsuchi ultimately chose to use Aizen's spiritual consciousness entity, Ai.

Shen Jue remained silent, only knowing that Mayuri Kurotsuchi had dug a huge hole for himself.

For Shen Jue, today was another boring day at work.

Shen Jue, who had already been promoted to captain of the 10th Division, had all the official duties he needed to handle handed over to the still young and much-needed vice-captain of the 10th Division, Toshiro Hitsugaya.

After Shen Jue became the captain of the 10th Division, Rangiku, the seat commander, decisively refused to be promoted to the vice-captain of the 10th Division and instead recommended Toshiro Hitsugaya.

This also resulted in Toshiro always having dark circles under his eyes and looking at Shen Jue slacking off with a resentful gaze.

Shen Jue picked up a cup of tea infused with plants unique to the Soul Society and slowly strolled into the barracks where the 10th Division handled official business.

Toshiro arrived early and had already begun processing documents, and was not surprised by Shen Jue's lateness.

But Toshiro clearly noticed the tea in Shen Jue's hand.

Toshiro recognized the plant in the tea at a glance.

That special plant can strengthen the body's foundation and enhance male virility, and can also slightly increase the vitality of spiritual pressure.

Toshiro looked surprised. He stopped working and asked Shen Jue with concern, "Captain Shen Jue, is there something wrong with your health now?"

"Please be more moderate in your daily life."

Shen Jue suddenly spat out the tea in his mouth and looked at Toshiro with a look of shock.

"Hey Toshiro, where did you hear this rumor?"

"My little Shen Jue still manages to stay perfectly erect even after being bitten several times by Xu!"

"Who's talking nonsense!" Shen Jue retorted angrily.

"But rumors in the Soul Society say you haven't been to a brothel in a long time," Toshiro said with a puzzled look. "And the plants in your tea have special effects."

"..." Shen Jue silently used a miniature Breaking Path: Soul Crushing, breaking the tea in his hand and the cup together into the smallest spiritual particles.

"Slander, pure slander."

With a bad feeling, Shen Jue took out the Death God Terminal and opened the famous Death God internal website, the Death God Forum.

The moment Shen Jue's fingertips touched the terminal screen, the third-ranked trending search in scarlet light burst into Shen Jue's pupils like a flash.

"Shocking! The 10th Division Captain survived thanks to this cup of tea! The Seireitei's higher-ups are collectively silent—what's the reason?"

"Is this a moral decline or a distortion of human nature?"

The accompanying picture is Shen Jue's back view, with a small amount of mosaic added thoughtfully. Even the writing on the haori was photoshopped into question marks, as if deliberately concealing something while trying to cover it up.

Shen Jue clicked on the post, and his spiritual pressure unconsciously overflowed from his fingertips.

The author of the article, a so-called insider, used sharp wit to dissect Shen Jue's daily life into pieces of evidence.

Shen Jue's health-preserving tea became a "lifeline" after his spiritual power became unstable.

His seclusion in the 10th Division barracks and his infrequent outings have been speculated to be a "helpless act due to unstable spiritual pressure."

Even more absurdly, the post ended with a blurry spiritual energy fluctuation monitoring image, with the coordinates of the 10th Division barracks marked by dense red dots, accompanied by the text "Abnormal spiritual pressure fluctuations late at night; experts say it may be related to some indescribable Hueco Mundo secret technique."

In the Shinigami world, Hueco Mundo's secret techniques are basically no different from traditional Chinese medicine remedies.

"Damn it! That familiar writing style! That familiar tone!" Shen Jue said through gritted teeth, holding his forehead with his hand.

"Brother Chunshui! What have I done to offend you? How dare you slander me?!"

Shen Jue took a deep breath and suppressed the fluctuating spiritual pressure within his body.

As one of the few captains in the Seireitei with a talent for literature, Captain Kyoraku Shunsui of the 8th Division is a top influencer on the Bleach forum.

This seemingly lazy but actually profound literary giant once serialized a phenomenal sadomasochistic masterpiece under the pen name "Hua Tian Kuang Gu" titled "A Cross-Century Sadomasochistic Love Story Between That Squinty-Eyed, Cold and Aloof Older Woman and a Masochistic Genius Grim Reaper".

With its ruthless and scathing writing style, this work not only topped the Soul Society's bestseller list for three years, but was also regarded by countless female Shinigami as the number one of the "Ten Must-Read Bibles for Women in Seireitei". It even led to a strange trend within the Gotei 13 that everyone was a fan of Squinty Eyes.

But at this moment, all Shen Jue wanted to do was drag Jing Le Chunshui over and pin him to the table to rewrite it!

"This isn't literary creation! This is slander!" Shen Jue looked at the familiar writing style on the screen, which carried a faint smell of tobacco and alcohol, and was so angry that she almost crushed the terminal.

The article seems to be describing Shen Jue's unstable spiritual pressure, but in fact, every word and sentence implies that Captain Shen is already dying and can only rely on health-preserving tea to prolong his life.

That's like killing someone by breaking their spirit!

"Kyoraku Shunsui! You just wait!"

Shen Jue was furious. He grabbed his Zanpakuto and was about to rush out of the barracks, ready to give his good older brother a physical beating to urge him to update his work.

The emergency communication ringtone, however, was like a bowl of chilled plum juice, extinguishing Shen Jue's anger.

Since things had come to this, Shen Jue had no choice but to go to work first.
