Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

Upon hearing this, Shiba Momo's eyes lit up: "Oh, have you found a suitable candidate?"

He had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

The pain of not being able to match one's abilities with one's position is truly agonizing.

The last time I experienced chaos in hell, I still feel lingering fear.

Later, I heard that those captains formed an expeditionary force and went to Hueco Mundo, where they were almost completely wiped out.

If he were to undertake a few more similar missions, Shiba Mokuya could be going to meet the ancestors of the Shiba family ahead of time.

Naraku Sora nodded and got straight to the point: "It's Shiba Isshin."

Yamamoto had entrusted him with the task of finding a suitable candidate long ago.

The original plan was to have Komamura Sajin take on the position of captain of the 10th Division after he had completed his training.

But who would have thought that they would create a new Gotei 13?

Judging from the expressions of Komamura and the others, they even seemed quite happy.

This made Naraku Sora somewhat reluctant to separate them.

Therefore, they had no choice but to select other people to fill the vacancies.

Shiba Kikuya paused for a moment, then stammered:

"Ichi, although Isshin has good talent, he has only mastered Shikai for a short time, so he should not be qualified to serve as captain."

Naraku Sora grinned: "You don't need to worry about that. Shiba Isshin's talent is actually better than you think."

"Back in the battle with Hellish Sinner, I already possessed enough spiritual pressure to master Bankai; I just lacked the time to hone it."

"But I happen to have a way to shorten the time."

He had glanced at the relevant footage of the Hellfire Rebellion while assisting with research at Hueco Mundo.

Shiba Isshin happens to appear in that segment.

His superb slashing skills allowed him to enter and exit the hellish inhabitants seven times, demonstrating a level of skill at least six cartloads.

Compared to the real captain, he's only missing a Bankai.

He happened to have an extra Divine Body, and considering that Shiba Isshin was a grateful person, he didn't mind letting the kid give it a try.

He also took the opportunity to complete the task that Yamamoto had given him many years ago.

Just consider it a way to make the old man happy.

It wouldn't be good if Yamamoto came back from the Dankai and found that none of the squad members were missing, and got so angry that he had a stroke.

Given Yamamoto's current thinking, if something unexpected were to happen, he would most likely be given the position of Captain-Commander.

For the sake of a better future, this is absolutely unacceptable.

"This……"

Shiba Mokuya was somewhat conflicted.

"Why don't we ask Shiba Isshin what he thinks?" Naraku Sora suggested.

Upon hearing this, Shiba Mokuya hesitated for a moment, thought for a few seconds, and then nodded.

"Alright."

Soon, a tall and imposing figure appeared before the two of them.

Looking at the young man who was almost as tall as him, Naraku Sora couldn't help but ask a question.

Does Death develop this quickly?

When we last met, this guy was still a teenager. How long has it been?

Shiba Kiku recounted the whole story in detail.

After hearing this, Shiba Isshin took a deep breath, subconsciously recalling the spiritual pressure fluctuations that had emanated from the Shinigami Prison earlier.

That's a powerful spiritual pressure that only a Shinigami who has mastered Bankai can unleash.

The successive eruptions of spiritual pressure fluctuations of similar scale are enough to prove that Naraku Sora was not lying.

The Shiba family is currently weak, and Uncle Mokuya's abilities are limited; no matter how hard he tries, he cannot revitalize the family.

Considering that this may be the only opportunity in one's life, missing it would surely be a lifelong regret.

Shiba Isshin seemed to have made up his mind, and immediately bowed solemnly:

"Please teach me, Lord Naraku!"

Looking at Shiba Isshin's serious face, Naraku Sora's expression was somewhat strange.

He suddenly remembered that the young man in front of him was Ichigo's father, the protagonist of the original timeline. If he did this, would it be considered as promoting the development of the world?

…………

"Burn, Yanyue!"

Gazing at the Zanpakuto materialized from the opponent's face, Shiba Isshin's aura surged, his spiritual pressure bulged, and a fiery heat erupted from the blade.

Flames coiled around the blade, unleashing a raging inferno when swung, reaching astonishing temperatures.

While its power may be slightly less than that of Ryujin Jakka, it is still considered one of the best fire-type Zanpakuto.

Naraku Sora stood to the side, carefully observing.

Putting everything else aside, his sheer presence already surpasses that of most Death God captains.

The current Gotei 13 needs this kind of energetic fresh blood to stimulate the others.

After several exchanges of blows, Shiba Isshin realized that his slashing techniques and Shunpo alone were not enough to defeat the materialized Yan Yue.

The basic skills he knows, the other party also knows.

We need to come up with something truly impressive.

Without hesitation, Shiba wiped the blood off his body and then wiped it on his lips.

The next second, the blazing firelight illuminated the sky and instantly engulfed the moon.

However, this was merely Shiba's preparation for his next move. He raised his Zanpakuto, and a powerful spiritual pressure enveloped the blade.

Flames condensed within.

A deafening roar echoed through the mountains and forests as Shiba focused intently on swinging his sword forward.

"Crescent Moon Sky Slash—!!"

A dazzling flash erupted from the blade, and a massive crescent-shaped slash, wreathed in flames, struck Yan Yue just as she broke free from the raging fire.

Amidst the billowing dust, a battered figure was sent flying backward, carving a deep furrow before crashing heavily into a distant mountainside.

Grotesque burn marks covered Yan Yue's entire body, and the huge wounds almost severed her body in half.

It gritted its teeth, seemingly trying to get up from the ground.

But after struggling for a while, it finally collapsed completely.

The next moment, a powerful surge of spiritual pressure swept through the entire mountain forest, and a dazzling pillar of light shot straight into the sky, shattering the clouds above.

Feeling the surging power coursing through his body, Shiba Isshin's face was filled with excitement.

He excitedly approached Naraku Sora and bowed deeply once again:

"Lord Naraku, thank you!"

Naraku waved his hand dismissively: "Don't be so polite. I'm doing this so that you can share some of the team's work."

"By the way, is there any captain you'd like to challenge?"

Zhibo thought for a few seconds, then looked up and asked seriously, "How about the sixth car captain?"

Nai Luokong: "..."

He really wanted to say, "Let Quanxi go," but after careful consideration, he couldn't find a suitable candidate to test.

We can't exactly send Kenpachi Zaraki, can we?

"Then it's settled."

Naraku turned and left, leaving the mountains and forests to Shiba Isshin so that he could quickly familiarize himself with the power of Bankai.

The journey back to Seireitei was unusually quiet; there were hardly any residents to be seen.

However, as Naraku Sora crossed a street, he suddenly turned his gaze to the southeast.

A figure in pure white drifted in.

Her long, black hair was braided and hung down her back. The wide captain's haori and shihaka uniform could not hide her proud figure, and a gentle smile as warm as a spring breeze appeared on her delicate face.

It was Shikatori Hakunsai, the new captain of the 8th Division whom we hadn't seen for many days.

Chapter 305 His judgment of people is completely inaccurate.

"Mr. Naraku, something has happened."

When he saw Naraku Sora, Shikatori Hakunsai's eyes lit up, sparkling like stars, and he ran over excitedly, his heart pounding with every step.

"Just now, when Captain-Commander Yamamoto and I were exploring the boundary, we discovered an abnormal imbalance of spiritual waves, with high-density spiritual particles moving violently."

"It even affected the nearby Jiaogu Valley."

Naraku Sora frowned.

Although I didn't understand it very well, it seemed quite serious.

Lu Qubaiyunzhai continued to add details:

"According to Captain-Commander Yamamoto's observation, if this phenomenon continues, the boundary may suffer serious consequences, such as the balance being broken."

"To prevent a disaster from happening, Captain-Commander Yamamoto stayed in the Dankai and sent me and the Immortal back to Soul Society to inform everyone."

As if to confirm what she said, a spiritual pressure rapidly approached from afar, and a pink-haired little imp soon came into view.

Shikato Hakunsai, without any hesitation, grabbed Naraku Sora's arm, inadvertently brushing against his soft, fleshy heart, preparing to lead them to the scene of the crime.

However, before she could take a step, the arm in her arms was slipped away.
