Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

One must not consider one's own life.

Aozaki Mayuki did it.

How could someone who instinctively helps others and dares to sacrifice themselves to face a powerful enemy be a bad person?

No wonder a genius like Kyuuke ​​Ichimaru was willing to follow him as an insignificant follower, and why the two seated officials, Ryusui and Izumo, were so fanatical about him.

If it weren't for the fact that I have to serve Lord Yoruichi, I probably would also want to follow him.

Soi Fon lowered her head, her long hair obscuring her face, carefully concealing her emotions.

But then, her eyes widened, first looking at her hands, then her body.

No pain!

"My body..."

The girl's face lit up with surprise, and a smile unconsciously crept onto her lips.

The injury that would have taken nearly six months to heal has almost completely recovered in just a few days?

This hot spring is amazing!

She stood up involuntarily, her hands constantly groping her body to make sure it wasn't a hallucination or a dream.

Yoruichi Shihouin gently patted her little head and said with a smile:

"If you want to thank Mayuki, you can't just thank him for saving your life. This hot spring is also thanks to Mayuki."

"Actually, I was just responsible for chatting with Captain Unohana, and I didn't do anything big."

Aozaki Mayuki casually remarked,

"Yosuichi and I brought the things back together, and Kisuke also created this hot spring."

Humility... Soi Fon felt that she had discovered another wonderful quality in the other person, and the admiration in her eyes grew stronger.

Even Aozaki Mayuki himself probably couldn't have imagined that he would soon become a role model for death in the hearts of young girls.

Yoruichi Shihouin looked at Mayuki Aozaki and said helplessly:

"You're quite arrogant. After this battle, the Second Division has suffered serious damage."

"Especially the inspection team, which suffered more than half of its personnel losses."

Soi Fon lowered her head.

"Please don't blame Lady Mayuki, Yoruichi. Lady Mayuki accompanied me to visit the maggot's nest, which is why we didn't discover the enemy in advance. It's all Soi Fon's fault."

Yoruichi Shihouin raised an eyebrow and said irritably:

"You're good at taking responsibility. I didn't mean to blame him, after all, I was the one who gave the orders. If anyone's to blame, it's me, the captain!"

Soi Fon whispered, "Lord Yoruichi..."

Yoruichi Shihōin suddenly shouted, "Sui Fon!"

"Yes!" The girl quickly stood up straight.

Yoruichi Shihouin smiled slightly, put her hands behind her back, and adopted a leader's demeanor.

"You are still my bodyguard, but I will temporarily transfer you to the inspection team to assist with the work."

She glanced at Aozaki Mayuki.

"The inspection team suffered heavy losses this time, and may face another major blow soon. Now is precisely the time when we need more manpower..."

Yoruichi was like an older sister, taking the hand of the little girl in front of her.

"Don't be lazy!"

"Yes," Soi Fon replied quickly without the slightest hesitation.

The next morning, after confirming that they were all healthy, the three returned to the Fourth Division.

This time, Yoruichi seemed to trust Soi Fon a little more and didn't knock her unconscious.

Therefore, Soi Fon was almost speechless when she discovered that the underground training ground was located below Sōkyō Hill.

The Hill of Twin Strike is the execution ground of Seireitei, and the Twin Strike Spears used to execute the Grim Reapers are placed on top of it.

The true form of the Twin Spears after their release, "Destroyer King," is said to possess the destructive power equivalent to one million Zanpakuto!

Shinjutsu-sama and Yoruichi-sama... and that Urahara Kisuke, they really have guts!

The three of them chatted and laughed...

No, to be precise, it was Mayuki and Yoruichi teasing the shy Soi Fon.

They returned to the Fourth Division, joking around, and the first person they saw was Retsu Unohana.

She looked like she was about to go out when, by sheer coincidence, she ran into the trio returning home.

It's impossible to sneak away under her nose, not even for members of the stealth unit who are skilled at concealment!

So when the three of them returned to the ward, they were wrapped in bandages again.

Fortunately, Unohana Retsu controlled her strength, and the one on night duty was the more easy-going Kotetsu Isane.

After some persuasion from Aozaki Mayuki, Isane blushed and moved the three of them to the same ward.

Chapter 110 Returning to a Thousand Years

Seireitei Central Ward, First Division Barracks.

Captain's office.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, leaning on his cane, stood before a crimson portrait.

The portrait depicts a man with an ancient samurai hairstyle, holding a katana in his hand, his body engulfed in raging flames, burning the world.

The person in the painting is a monster who appeared in Soul Society in the past and almost destroyed the world—

Yamamoto Shigekuni!

Sharp swords, howling winds, booming thunder, and scorching flames...

Battle reports flashed through Yamamoto's mind, making him think all sorts of things.

"Just how many things has this kid Zhenyue been hiding from me?" Yamamoto Genryusai squinted and muttered to himself.

"Commander-in-Chief."

A clear, melodious female voice sounded from outside the door.

"Come in."

Yamamoto responded, slowly withdrew his gaze, and his expression returned to normal.

He turned around, and what came into view was Retsu Unohana opening the paper door.

Unohana Retsu said softly:

"Commander-in-Chief, the investigation is complete."

Yamamoto looked the smiling Fourth Division Captain up and down.

The two have known each other for a thousand years, and he knows that Unohana Retsu's joy comes from the bottom of her heart.

He nodded and asked in a kind tone:

"How is the situation?"

Although Kenpachi Onigenjo is dead, he was, after all, the captain of the 11th Division and a Shinigami with the title Kenpachi.

In addition, Aozaki Mayuki's performance in this battle truly exceeded everyone's expectations.

This naturally leads to a greater focus on the situation of this battle.

Unohana Retsu lowered her head and said:

"After receiving treatment, the Third Seat of Shingetsu has basically recovered from his injuries."

"As for the specific details of this rebellion..."

"Many strange battle marks were found at the scene of the battle and on the corpse of Oni-Ichiro Kenpachi."

"However, it is certain that Onigenjo Kenpachi was indeed killed by the Third Seat of Shingetsu."

Yamamoto rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"The child is doing very well, but it's not the right time yet."

Unohana Retsu smiled somewhat awkwardly.

Knowing that Aozaki Mayuki had single-handedly killed Oni Kenpachi did indeed excite her.

I really wish I could go to the Fourth Division right now and find Aozaki Mayuki, and have a few exhilarating sword sparring matches right away.

"Speaking of that brat Mayuki, we'll keep the specific details of this battle a secret for now," Yamamoto said. "You need to keep an eye on the other kids."

Retsu Unohana pondered for a moment, then said with a solemn expression:

"I understand, I will relay your orders, but what if they disobey..."

"kill!"

Yamamoto spoke coldly.

It was as if in an instant he had transformed from a kind and amiable old man back into a monster that struck fear into the hearts of people a thousand years ago.

Seeing this, Unohana Retsu was somewhat dazed.

She fell silent, letting out a quiet sigh.

Those were truly unforgettable and wonderful years.

Although that era was turbulent and filled with killing and death.

But for her, it was the best of times.

When did this even more terrifying demon in front of him begin to suppress its ferocity?

Aozaki Mayuki... Unohana Retsu thought of this man who had repeatedly challenged her understanding of what was good for her.

This man hasn't lost his edge and is exceptionally talented; he'll catch up with us sooner or later.
