Shirou's clones number 30 million

"As the initiator of the banquet and the former captain of the Fifth Division, shouldn't Captain Aizen grace us with his presence and offer some guidance?"

Aizen glanced at her, a smile appearing on his face, and said nonchalantly:

"The work has already been assigned. You all just need to do your respective jobs. There's nothing I can do if I go. Besides, Hinamori is enough."

So annoying!

Rukia stared intently at Aizen. Ever since becoming a vice-captain and gradually getting to know the various captains and vice-captains, her respect for Aizen had completely vanished.

No matter what kind of work it is, this person can always find an excuse to delegate all the work.

All the miscellaneous tasks within the team were handled by Hinamori Momo.

That's why he had nothing to do.

However, he seemed to realize this as well, and never wandered around during the day.

Therefore, the Shinigami in the Seireitei who were unfamiliar with him had no idea that he never did any work and was so idle that he had nothing to do.

It's outrageous that someone who is the captain is so lazy!

What's most infuriating is that because he rarely appears in front of others when he's not busy, many people in the Seireitei think he's a kind-hearted and hardworking person.

Even in the Fifth Division, where he served as captain, many people shared this view.

“They neglected their regular duties and even handed over this unprecedented grand banquet entirely to others.”

"Captain Aizen has been instructing a certain girl all night long. He's really kind-hearted."

As soon as she finished speaking, Rukia noticed that Orihime Inoue's face had turned pale, and quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry, Orihime, I wasn't targeting you. I was just... complaining about Captain Aizen."

So annoying!

Why is it that the person he's mentoring is his classmate from the real world, and he can't even complain about it?

"You don't need to explain, Rukia. I know you actually hate me..." Inoue Orihime's voice even trembled slightly.

"That's not true! You've misunderstood."

Eh...

It's not easy to find an opportunity to complain to Aizen, so why does it have to be Orihime?

Chapter 518 I never expected that I would actually get so into a conversation with him.

Chapter 518, Section 519: I never expected that I would actually find myself chatting so enthusiastically with him.

Those two people in front?

What's the situation?

Early in the morning, just before arriving at school, Ichigo Kurosaki suddenly noticed two familiar faces ahead of him.

One is her classmate Orihime Inoue, and the other is her superior in Soul Society, Sosuke Aizen.

Why did Aizen send her to school? Does he have some kind of scheme up his sleeve?

Watching Orihime Inoue enter the school gate, Ichigo Kurosaki quickly walked towards Aizen, who was about to leave, and slowly spoke:

"Aizen, why are you here?"

"What a coincidence, Ichigo. So you've been going to school all along too."

"Why are you so surprised? As a student, isn't it normal for me to come to school for classes?"

Noticing that his gaze was fixed on his hair, Kurosaki Ichigo naturally understood what he meant.

"My hair color is natural. Although I look like a delinquent, I guess I can still be considered a good student, right?"

"Ha ha......"

"That's incredibly rude of you!" Kurosaki Ichigo's expression froze.

"Sorry, it's really hilarious to hear Ichigo say that."

Aizen laughed for a while, then changed the subject and explained:

"Two days ago, Orihime also became a Grim Reaper by chance."

“However, she is different from you. She doesn’t have a father who was a former captain, a mother who is a pure-blooded Quincy, or a mentor like Rukia. I have to teach her myself.”

"That's a really harsh thing to say." Kurosaki Ichigo frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "It's like saying my strength is all inherited from my family."

Aizen feigned ignorance and said with a smile:

"She hasn't finished her training yet, and her combat ability is too poor. When you're fighting Xu, try not to call her."

"Isn't this just common sense?"

Although he was unhappy with Aizen's evaluation of him, Ichigo Kurosaki had gained some understanding of his own strength and position after being a captain for so long.

No matter what, he had awakened his Bankai, and even if he lacked combat experience, he was still someone those vice-captains couldn't defeat.

The only people who can fight against him are those at the captain level or above.

Even if Rukia's spiritual power is fully restored, she is no match for me, so I am the captain.

Why would a newcomer interfere in a battle between the real world and the virtual world when a captain-level combatant has the ability to fight?

"However, I never expected that Captain Aizen would take her as his disciple. There are three Shinigami in this school. Even excluding Rukia who is on long leave, there are two who are on campus all the time, so their safety is well guaranteed."

Hearing Ichigo Kurosaki's sigh, Aizen unconsciously thought:

I had planned to teach him Shunpo and then let him go, but it seems I'll have to extend the teaching time.

Letting her graduate like this will only ruin her reputation.

Moreover, even logistics personnel need to have some combat skills.

"She's different from you; her spiritual pressure is too low. Don't have too high expectations for her for now."

"Understood. Even if she is your disciple, it's been too short a time for her to develop strong combat abilities."

The dangers of the present world mainly come from Hollows, not only from the occasional Hollows that come unintentionally from Hueco Mundo, but also from the possibility that a dead spirit may become a Hollow if it harbors resentment.

For Shinigami, the Soul Society is the key area to defend against; they would never deploy too many Shinigami in the human world.

Even the Grim Reaper stationed in the mortal world, who is loyal to his duty and works diligently every day, will sometimes make mistakes or miss his chance.

When such a mistake occurs, at least one human being is usually killed.

Therefore, for Ichigo Kurosaki, the presence of another Shinigami in his city was by no means a bad thing.

Even if she is just a newcomer, even if her strength is far inferior to his.

But when danger strikes, even just a little delay might save one more life.

"Captain Aizen, do you have any methods to increase spiritual pressure?"

The guy who always calls me by my first name suddenly calling me captain must have something on his mind.

Aizen thought for a moment and quickly realized what was going on.

"You want your other sister to become the Grim Reaper too?"

"It doesn't necessarily have to be the Grim Reaper; I just don't want her to be too lonely."

Kurosaki Ichigo paused, then said in a low voice:

“Dad is the former captain, and although Mom has lost her spiritual power, her eyesight is still there. Xia Li is also working hard now, but Youzi is just an ordinary person.”

"When chatting with someone far away, you have to be careful not to say anything inappropriate... I've seen that lonely look in their eyes more than once, sigh..."

Aizen pondered this. Indeed, when the whole family is involved in secrets, and he is the only ordinary person, he will naturally feel negative emotions such as inferiority, loneliness, and isolation.

If she didn't know, that would be one thing, but she clearly lived in Soul Society for a period of time and her memories haven't been erased. Her feelings are completely similar to those of Saten Ruiko.

"In this regard, you should subtly probe her about it and see if she is interested in the Grim Reaper."

"Then, when Xia Li comes back, she might bring you another surprise."

The magic and martial arts from another world can offer some solace.

"I see..." Kurosaki Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly. "I understand. Thank you, Captain Aizen."

"You're welcome. To be honest, I thought you would erase the traveler's memories."

“At first, I did think that way. However, Xia Li strongly objected, and my mother also disagreed. I could only repeatedly emphasize to Youzi that she should not tell anyone.”

As he spoke, Ichigo Kurosaki unconsciously chuckled.

When Rukia first moved into the house, both of them thought they were hiding their true identities very well.

But now that I think about it, my parents probably saw it all along, but they just pretended not to know.

It's fine as it is now; as long as we're not in front of our friends, we can talk about almost anything.

“Hollows only target those with strong spiritual power. It’s actually safer for someone who doesn’t have spiritual power and is just an ordinary person. There’s no need to force it,” Aizen said casually.

"I understand that principle, but even without spiritual power, bad luck can still affect you."

Ichigo Kurosaki paused for a moment, then added:

"Moreover, I don't want my fellow travelers to be left alone."

“In that case, let’s wait for Xia Li to come back.” Aizen smiled slightly. “The reason she left this time is probably because she had the same idea as you.”

It wasn't to defeat the hero and save the world, but to make sure his younger sister wasn't alone anymore.

"So that's why Karin suddenly left a note and ran away." Kurosaki Ichigo mused.

I knew it! What's the point of a little kid like her going to another world to fight heroes? Besides, she's not the type to be thinking about saving the world all the time.

Just then, a bell rang out from inside the school.

Kurosaki Ichigo's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly ran inside.

"I'm going to school now. Let's talk again this afternoon if we have a chance."

I never expected that I would get so engrossed in a conversation with Aizen at the school gate that I lost track of time.

Is this some kind of joke?

Could it be that I don't actually dislike him at all?
