Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

Perhaps the old man subconsciously believed what he had said earlier.

As for Yamamoto...

Naraku Sora rolled out of bed in his bedroom, left the courtyard, and randomly picked up a Shinigami from the roadside to ask him a question.

Although the other person showed great respect when they saw his face clearly, they were unable to answer his question.

Not only is Yamamoto no longer in the First Division, but even Chojiro Sasakibe has disappeared.

Currently, the person in charge of the team's internal affairs is the third seat, Genjiro Oki, an elderly man who appears to be taciturn and unsmiling.

After carefully sensing it, I didn't detect Yamamoto's spiritual pressure, nor did I see any messages or anything like that.

Since there's nothing there, it means the matter is over.

Naraku grinned, deeply feeling the care from his teacher.

So, while at the teahouse, he casually took a few packets of high-quality tea leaves and a few sweet potatoes, then turned and left the First Division's quarters.

They headed towards the direction of the Central Prison.

……

……

No gaps.

The shattered stones, reeking of killing intent, piled up, and the earth was crisscrossed with ravines. The scorching heat had not yet completely dissipated.

Two figures walked slowly through the crowd.

Chojiro Sasaki walked ahead, carrying a lantern lit by spiritual pressure, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

The scene before him left him deeply shocked.

No wonder the aftershocks of the battle spread to the ground and even reached the edge of the barracks.

It turns out that the "Boundless" barrier in this area was almost completely destroyed.

Judging from the traces left at the scene, it was no less intense than the battle between Yamamoto and Naraku.

The problem is, even if Shiro Sou's income were several times higher, it still wouldn't be half of Yamamoto's.

There is an insurmountable gap between the two.

Not to mention, in the ruins of Wujian, it was almost impossible to detect any remaining spiritual pressure from Mochijo Sōya.

Clearly, this absurd situation was caused by Naraku Sora alone.

"Lord Genryusai."

Chojiro Sasaki took a deep breath, slowly suppressing the shock in his heart.

"In my opinion, Naraku Prison Commander probably didn't go all out in the battle just now."

Yamamoto snorted coldly: "Just because he didn't take it out, does that mean I should?"

Chojiro Sasaki's lips twitched involuntarily. Ever since he took someone as his apprentice, his Captain-Commander's mentality seemed to be getting younger and younger.

Seemingly realizing his lapse in composure, Yamamoto coughed a few times to cover it up, his expression returning to calm as he analyzed in a deep voice:

"I actually sensed it during the final wave of the battle."

"That kid may seem exhausted, but there's actually a violent power lurking within him."

"That's why I brought you to Wujian for an examination as soon as possible, and to take a look at the extent of the damage."

Chojiro nodded, squatted at the edge of a crack, placed his hand on it, and carefully sensed the remaining aura.

A few seconds later, he frowned.

Yamamoto made the same movements, and his expression was remarkably consistent.

"Lord Genryusai, this power..." Chojiro Suzaku hesitated.

Yamamoto lowered his gaze slightly and sighed deeply.

"It's not that serious yet, and—"

"No matter what, that kid will always be my disciple..."

Chapter 219 I see, I understand now!

Several days after that earth-shattering battle, a meeting of team leaders was held.

The First Squadron barracks, in the courtyard.

With a gentle smile on his face, Jushiro Ukitake stepped inside.

The weather was exceptionally sunny today, and I felt lighter than ever before, as if a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. I felt completely relaxed.

Now, he has not only fully recovered physically, but he has also finished dealing with all the backlog of files within the team.

In the past, although he was often bedridden, he was always concerned about various trivial matters.

Such as various files and documents requiring the captain's approval, social interactions between nobles, and trivial matters within the family.

There are many things that Sentaro Kotsubaki simply cannot decide on his own.

Fortunately, a girl named Kotetsu Kiyone has recently been discovered. She is quite capable in both her skills and work, so perhaps she can be promoted to a higher-ranking officer and the two of them can work together on team affairs.

But it doesn't seem necessary to go through all that trouble.

Now that he has recovered, he has plenty of energy to handle all kinds of work.

For this, I really have to thank my junior brother.

If he hadn't recruited two subordinates skilled in medicine, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly. Even Captain Unohana praised the replacement highly.

Speaking of which, my junior brother's vision is indeed unique.

In the current Shinigami Prison, apart from the two talented individuals Kisuke Urahara and Mayuri Kurotsuchi, some of the other Shinigami holding executive positions are behaving quite outrageously.

Putting aside everything else, the previous Soul Society rising star, Kuchiki Kyoga, was a powerful figure whose strength was no less than that of a Shinigami captain, and his Zanpakuto, Muramasa, was a weapon that could be used against Shinigami.

Strangely, Kuchiki Kyoga rarely uses his Zanpakuto's abilities these days, whether he's out on missions or punishing criminals.

Will my junior brother lead people astray?

Besides Kuchiki Kyouga, there is also Uta, a former member of the Tsuna-Yashiro family. He is also very talented, and his Shikai is incredibly powerful, capable of easily defeating ordinary lieutenants.

There's also Komamura Sajin and Tosen Kaname, brought back from Rukongai...

Thinking of this, Jushiro Ukitake couldn't help but be somewhat taken aback.

If he remembers correctly, the current captain of the 11th Division was also brought back from Rukongai by Naraku Sora.

I still vividly remember Kenpachi Zaraki's outrageous performance during the captain's assessment.

Without Shikai or Bankai, he still managed to severely injure Captain Kensei Muguruma.

It makes absolutely no sense.

Thinking of this, Jushiro Ukitake's lips curled up slightly.

It's wonderful that Naraku Kuru can join the Genryu.

Whether it's Yamamoto-sensei or others, they all seem to have been subtly influenced, and even the Soul Society is developing in a positive direction.

If this trend continues, it seems that the world of my dreams is not far away.

With some emotion, Jushiro Ukitake arrived near the conference room. Just as he was about to go in, he saw two familiar figures.

Is my junior brother here too?

Yes, the teacher convened this team leader meeting, which is probably related to what happened a couple of days ago.

Thinking of this, Jushiro Ukitake shook his head and chuckled.

My junior brother is good in every way, except for one thing: he can't sit still.

Once he has been quiet for a while, we should be wary of him suddenly revealing something shocking.

Take, for example, the turmoil in "Infernal Affairs" this time.

The teacher was so exasperated with the boy that he didn't hold back at all when disciplining him.

However, it seems that the junior brother doesn't have any serious injuries.

In terms of sheer toughness and resilience, he was several times stronger than both himself and Kyoraku.

A hint of helplessness appeared on Jushiro Ukitake's face as he shook his head and walked into the meeting room.

Outside the corridor, Naraku Sora looked at the armband on Aizen's arm, a symbol of his identity, with a look of utter disappointment.

"Sousuke, have you fallen?"

"I never expected that a mere deputy captain position would satisfy you so much, making you willing to be subordinate to others."

Aizen: "..."

He felt that someone must have been hit on the head by Yamamoto, causing their already limited intelligence to be completely lost.

After a few seconds of silence, he took a deep breath and said calmly:

“I’ve been going to Hueco Mundo too often lately. Shinji Hirako probably noticed something, which is why he appointed me as the vice-captain.”

"Moreover, I am no longer allowed to access some relatively confidential files."

Upon hearing this, Naraku raised an eyebrow:

"Is this guy really that curious?"

Aizen nodded and analyzed in a deep voice:

“From the day I joined the team, Shinji Hirako was wary of me.”

"Or rather, his initial purpose in bringing me into the Fifth Division was not pure."

"At first, due to a lack of information, I didn't guess the reason. It was only during the later Zanpakuto turmoil that I discovered that his Zanpakuto and my Kyoka Suigetsu both belonged to the Genjutsu type."

"Moreover, in terms of ability, the two are in a superior-subordinate relationship."

"Therefore, it is inevitable to have excessive emotions."

Naraku Sora suddenly realized: "I see, I understand now, these two scheming boys are putting on a show of acting!"
