Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

He will only personally intervene when the situation becomes so urgent that no other Grim Reaper can handle it.

However, this time he actually left Seireitei on his own initiative.

"What exactly did that old man go to do?"

Naraku Sora looked into the courtyard with a puzzled expression.

Chojiro, who was watering the flowers, replied without looking up:

"The 12th Division said they found traces of the Saito family in the Dangai."

"I originally planned to go with Baiyunzhai to investigate, but Lord Yuanliuzhai took the initiative to suggest that we go together, considering that the two of us knew very little about the Broken Realm."

Naraku stroked his chin: "Why is that old man suddenly being so kind?"

Chojiro Sasaki raised his head and sighed helplessly:

"Lord Naraku, do you know who killed Saito, the immortal being?"

Naraku Sora shook his head.

"It is Lord Yuan Liuzhai."

Chojiro Sasaki's face showed a look of recollection, "At that time, Saito was controlled by the Quincy, and they originally intended to use this as leverage to make Lord Genryusai hesitate to act against them."

"However, before she could finish speaking, Saito and the Quincy who controlled her were burned to ashes."

"Therefore, Lord Yuan Liuzhai feels guilty..."

Naraku was speechless.

Yamamoto, who lived a thousand years ago, was truly a ruthless man.

He truly lives up to his fearsome reputation as the Sword Demon.

He shook his head, preparing to leave the First Division, but before he could take a few steps, he was blocked by Chojiro Sasakibe, who suddenly appeared.

"Lord Naraku, there's something I forgot to tell you."

"The Captain-Commander wasn't sure when he would return, so he specifically submitted an application to the 46th Division before leaving."

Upon hearing this, Naraku had a bad feeling.

"For the next period of time, you will act as the captain and be responsible for all matters, big and small, within the team."

Chapter 303 The Sparrow Clan's Art of Judging People

"Captain Naraku, these are today's team duties. Please take care of them."

In the First Division barracks, in the captain's office, Chojiro Sasakibara, carrying a stack of documents taller than a person, slammed it onto the desk.

Looking at the mountain of files and various lists in front of him, Naraku Sora's face turned ashen; it was even more unbearable than seeing Urahara Kisuke slacking off.

"Old man from the Sparrow Tribe, what kind of joke are you making?!"

At this moment, he no longer cared about traditional virtues like respecting the elderly and caring for the young, and roared in fury:

"Although I haven't read much, I've seen my teacher handle case files and official duties. He didn't even do half of what he does now. Are you trying to fool me?"

“Oh, Lord Yuan Liuzhai left in a hurry. This is what has been piling up these past few days, and some of it is old stuff that has accumulated over the years.”

Chojiro Sasaki's voice was gentle, making it impossible for anyone to feel any anger.

"Before Lord Yuan Liuzhai left, he specifically instructed me to entrust these things to you for handling."

"Also, some files that other squads couldn't finish processing were also submitted."

"?"

Naraku Sora stared wide-eyed at the man with thick eyebrows and large eyes in front of him:

"Sparrow squad member, are you awake?"

"If the other team leaders can't finish dealing with it, how can I possibly finish it?"

"Are you misunderstanding something about me?"

Chojiro Sasaki smiled gently and said slowly, "I believe in Captain-Commander Naraku."

Naraku Sora took a deep breath, his expression turning ferocious: "Then I really have to thank you for your trust, Vice Captain of the Sparrow Club!"

"You're welcome, it's what I should do."

As a veteran who had followed Yamamoto for thousands of years, no one understood how to read people's expressions and control their hearts better than Chojiro Sasakibe.

He had figured out Naraku Sora's personality a long time ago.

This kid responds better to gentle persuasion than force.

If you force him to do something, he will most likely turn against you.

But if you put yourself in a subordinate position and try to reason with him and appeal to his emotions, he can only swallow his anger and suffer in silence.

Speaking of which, Lord Yuan Liuzhai also has this kind of personality.

He had nine ways to deal with such people.

Nine kinds.

Unable to refuse, Naraku had no choice but to bite the bullet and start looking through the files in front of him, trying to find a few simple and easy-to-handle ones.

We can resolve this gradually, drag it out for ten days or half a month, and then we can confidently pass the buck once Yamamoto returns.

Yes, that's me for sure.

Naraku, who had figured out a solution in a second, immediately felt relieved and began to read the case file with a clear conscience.

However, the first document almost broke his defenses.

"Translate this for me: what does it mean that the Higher Spiritual Authority has made a major error, the registration list is lost, and the salaries of the senior officials are difficult to pay on time?"

"When did our Gotei 13 have such an organization?"

Chojiro looked at Naraku Sora with a puzzled expression and explained earnestly:

"The management of higher spirit tablets is the responsibility of the Sixth Division, which mainly registers various matters concerning the seated officials."

"This organization has existed for even longer than the Gotei 13."

Naraku's face turned pale.

The difficulty of handling team affairs was much higher than he had imagined.

When I was the warden of the Shin-o Prison, I tried to handle some case files. Usually, all I had to do was mark them as approved or disapproved. It wasn't that complicated.

"What exactly is the Household Registration Bureau?"

"Residents of Seireitei who are getting married need to submit their documents to the Household Registration Office."

"Grass."

Setting aside the files for which he couldn't think of a solution for the time being, Naraku continued searching for documents he could handle.

He was starting to miss his good friend Aizen.

With the ability to handle documents, he should be able to resolve this mountain of files very quickly, right?

Is it too late to say "I was just joking" at this point?

Just as he was struggling with this decision, there was a sudden knock on the door. Chojiro Sasakibe spoke up at the opportune moment:

"Please come in."

A figure with long, flowing hair stepped into the office.

However, as soon as he entered, he witnessed an unbelievable scene.

A person who should absolutely not be here is sitting in Captain-Commander Yamamoto's usual seat, looking at the documents in front of him with a headache.

Hirako Shinji paused for a moment, rubbed his eyes hard, and seriously doubted whether he had knocked on the door incorrectly.

He hesitated for a moment, left the room, stood in the hallway for a few seconds, and then came back in.

The scene before me remained unchanged.

Watching Hirako Shinji come and go, Chojiro Sasakibe couldn't help but frown.

The acting captain is already acting abnormally enough, how come you're starting to act up too?

Is there some infectious agent spreading within Seireitei?

"Captain Hirako, what exactly do you want?"

Seeing that Hirako Shinji was about to play two more rounds of the game, Chojiro Sasaki could no longer hold back.

"I just can't quite believe my eyes."

Hirako Shinji pointed cautiously to the figure behind the desk, who was engrossed in rummaging through things, and said:

"When did Captain-Commander Yamamoto master the Kido of Rejuvenation?"

"?"

Naraku Sora raised his head and mentally made a deep grudge against Hirako Shinji.

"Ahem, that is not Lord Yuan Liuzhai, but the newly appointed acting captain, Nairoku."

Chojiro Sasakibe has already sent his men to other squads, but the message was delivered slowly and not everyone was notified in time.

Although the messenger machine was convenient and quick, as a conservative, he still preferred to have his soldiers deliver important messages.

Upon hearing Chojiro's words, Shinji Hirako's heart sank.

The reason he refused to believe his eyes was entirely because the matter he was about to report was related to Naraku Sora.

Long ago, he had taken a lot of interest in Aizen for some special reasons.

Later, after Naraku Sora frequently visited the Fifth Division barracks and demonstrated a close friendship with Aizen, some of his doubts were dispelled.

However, as time went by, Naraku's reputation spread more and more widely in Seireitei and even throughout Soul Society.

His deeds inspired both death and the residents to admire and respect him.

In addition, his rapidly improving personal strength led Hirako Shinji to appropriately shift some of his suspicions to Naraku Sora.
