Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

White Bone Hell.

The two stared at each other, but Kirinji Tenjiro's small eyes gave him a natural advantage, while Naraku's thick eyebrows and large eyes quickly gave him an edge, and he said somewhat speechlessly:

"I thought you Zero Division had conspired to deceive an old comrade like me who is not even a hundred years old, just to steal the Hakimi from Ukitake's heart."

Kirin Temple Tianshilang: "..."

Despite his thick skin, he still couldn't keep up with the guy's leaps of thought.

and.

He's not even a hundred years old yet, and he can already compete on the same stage as Hyōsuke Ichibei. If he were to live for another few decades or a hundred years, he might just pull the Spirit King down and take his place.

This kid is even more monstrous than a monster.

"Ahem, to correct you, it should be Lord Mimihachi."

Kirinji Tenjiro, as one of the King Rei's personal guards, felt it necessary to correct the issue of address.

“Kid, in a sense, Hyosube Ichibei and we can’t be considered the same species. He has lived for millions of years.”

"Perhaps in his eyes, we are not even ants."

Would you sit down and have a long talk with an ant, and tell it your secrets?

"For Hyosube Ichibei, his only duty is to protect Lord Rei-oh."

"Of course, this is also the mission of Squad Zero."

Naraku Sora seemed to be deep in thought.

Kirinji Tenjiro possessed great martial prowess, but his mind was completely empty, devoid of any wisdom.

If you really let this guy analyze it, his intuition is more useful.

Let's wait until we return to Soul Society before telling Aizen what happened in the Zero Division and let him figure it out.

Things have completely spiraled out of control.

Some knowledge that exists only in memory is no longer of any value for reference.

Nobody knows where the future will lead.

"Actually, it can't be said that all of them are bad things."

Kirinji Tenjiro scratched his head and pointed to Ukitake Jushiro, who was soaking in the hot spring water, explaining:

"His spiritual king power has been completely stripped away, and although he has lost his lungs as a result, my two types of hot spring water can temporarily stabilize his vital signs."

"If we can re-implant artificial organs after returning to Soul Society, Captain Ukitake will fully recover his health."

Naraku Sora paused for a moment, then subconsciously said:

"Ken, healthy Ukitake?"

Chapter 195 You're a lovely girl now

Kirinji Tenjiro gave him a strange look, not understanding why the boy suddenly looked like his pupils had been shocked when he said "healthy Ukitake".

It was as if I had heard something incredible.

"Hey, I'm telling you, don't get too excited yet."

"As a genius medical professional who developed the Bone Hell and Blood Pool Hell, my mastery of the path of death surpasses that of all the Grim Reapers."

"Even Unohana Retsu's reply was taught by me personally."

"Before being promoted to the Zero Division, the medical level in Soul Society was far from being able to replace internal organs, let alone artificial organs, which was a pipe dream."

"I'm just proposing a treatment plan. If there's still no significant improvement in the Dao technique, then let Captain Fuzhu stay at the Spirit King Palace for the time being."

Kirinji Tenjiro raised his hand, letting the rich, bone-broth-like hot spring water drip through his fingers.

"Using the two types of hot springs alternately can maintain his vital signs at a stable level."

"Once we develop the technology to create artificial organs, we can send him back to Soul Society."

Naraku Sora waved his hand dismissively, looking completely unconcerned.

"There's really not much progress in returning to the path, since it's not very useful and not many Grim Reapers are willing to delve into this area."

What potential can a technique that even Kisuke Urahara doesn't value have?

Instead of practicing returning to the original path, why not develop some cutting-edge technology?

As far as Naraku Sora knows, Mayuri Kurotsuchi has successfully developed the flesh-repairing agent.

Although it's only targeting Mayuri Kurotsuchi's experimentally modified body, now that we have this idea, it shouldn't be too difficult to dig deeper.

The effectiveness may be slightly reduced, but it is sufficient for emergency use in wartime.

As for the research plan for artificial internal organs, Mayuri Kurotsuchi had already completed it decades ago.

As the only researcher in the Shutara Research Group to have modified his own physical body, Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a very qualified person to speak on this subject.

Not to mention the internal organs, even the brain can be replaced with a backup.

"However, technological development is very rapid. The Shutara Research Group has been transformed into the Naraku Technology Development Bureau, and the number of members has increased from the initial two to four."

"Under the wise leadership of this prison commander, countless technologies have been invented that are capable of changing the course of Soul Society. In the near future, we will set foot on the stars."

Kirin Temple Tianshilang: "..."

He strongly suspected that during the fight with Hyosube Ichibei, the kid had been hit on the head by the fat monk, causing him to be delirious and even talking nonsense.

Others might not understand, but I can still tell—

"You have extremely poor basic knowledge and no research spirit whatsoever. Even if technology develops rapidly, it will have nothing to do with you."

"Ha, superficial." Nairoku shook his head dismissively.

Kirinji Tenjiro's forehead veins bulged; being called superficial by this brute was the ultimate insult.

"Then tell me, what are you responsible for researching within the Technology Development Bureau?"

"Of course, they'll be studied!"

Qilin Temple Tianshilang: "?"

Wait, what's with that look on your face?

What is there to be proud of?

Seemingly sensing Kirinji Tenjiro's thoughts, Naraku Sora's disdainful expression deepened.

"I told you you're shallow, but you won't admit it."

"Look, how many Shinigami can master Hollowfication?"

"How many people can possess such a natural physical constitution?"

"Looking across the three realms, I alone possess such excellent experimental materials. Isn't that enough to drive the rapid development of science and technology?"

Kirinji Tenjiro remained silent.

The composition of this Naraku Technology Development Bureau is too complex for him to evaluate.

But in terms of the description, what this kid said is actually not wrong at all.

Let alone the Shinigami of Soul Society, even he, a member of the Zero Division who had seen it all, was somewhat tempted when he realized the research value of Naraku Sora.

Click.

The sound of bones breaking rang out, and Kirinji Tenjiro's pupils contracted sharply as he sat bolt upright.

Naraku Sora calmly snapped off his arm, which had mostly recovered, and then forcefully straightened it before letting the hot springs of the White Bone Hell expel the stagnant blood and abandoned spiritual pressure.

Gollum—

Amidst the writhing sounds as if they were alive, Naraku Sora's broken bones were put back in place, his muscle fibers intertwined and entwined, and the wounds left by the ink burns healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When he first came to the hot spring, Kirinji Tenjiro didn't pay much attention, but after that conversation just now...

He then realized that the reason why Naraku's injury recovery efficiency was so amazing was not only due to the White Bone Hell, but also largely due to his own terrifying self-healing ability.

Even more powerful than Vastode's super-fast regeneration.

But what's most terrifying isn't the ability to recover, but this powerful will that makes pain seem insignificant.

"Kid, I'm actually more curious about how you manage to ignore this level of pain?"

Naraku grinned, seemingly unconcerned, and said:

You'll get used to it.

Even during his time as a monk in the monastery, his body was constantly under high stress due to intense training, and excruciating pain became a daily occurrence.

After joining the team, he was tricked by that wicked woman, Senjumaru, into entering the laboratory and frequently participated in some high-risk experiments.

He later joined the Genryu school, and was beaten up by Yamamoto every now and then.

In addition, they will also have to go to the Fourth Division for a kendo exchange.

That is to say, his physical body is tough and his spirit is strong. If it were any other Grim Reaper, they would have died at some point long ago.

Although it was just a casual remark, it made Kirinji Tenjiro feel inexplicably heavy.

Sometimes I envy Yamamoto Shigekuni for having such a worry-free apprentice.

Kirinji Tenjiro suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

……

……

No one knows what Hyosube Ichibei did after forcibly taking away the Soul King's right hand.

Naraku wanted to ask, but the skinny monk never showed himself.

I originally planned to go to the inner palace of the Spirit King after I recovered from my injuries.

Before he could even get there, he was stopped by several people with serious expressions.

The promised summons from the Spirit King never materialized.

This led Naraku to suspect that the Soul King had been killed by the three members of the Zero Division, and that they were using the Soul King's name to control the Soul Society.
