Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

Seeing that Ukitake was about to ask more, Soi-Fong quickly interrupted and said:

"Captain Ukitake, this goes against the Zero Squad's rule. Is that okay?"

"The rules of Squad Zero?"

Ukitake was stunned, then he remembered that Soi Fong was referring to the rule that the issue of the Hollow needed to be resolved by Squad Zero.

He smiled and shook his head, saying:

"In fact, that rule was formulated very early, so early that I might not have been born yet."

"It is said that at that time, Seireitei had just promoted the use of Zanpakuto, and its strength was not as strong as it is now."

"The captain at that time was indeed struggling against the Hollows and needed the support of Squad Zero."

Ukitake said, his expression a little nostalgic:

"After Squad Zero reinforced the borders of Hueco Mundo, Hollows rarely appeared, and this rule was almost never used again."

"The reason they haven't abolished it, and the idea that 'the Hollows need a few captains or squad zeros to deal with them' has been passed down, is mainly to reduce casualties among the new generation of Shinigami."

After listening to it for a while, Soi Feng understood the reason.

There are many talented young Shinigami who can quickly awaken their Zanpakutō's Shikai and become the best in the Gotei Corps.

If we allow them to become overconfident and face the big void directly, they may easily end up in a ditch and cause casualties.

Some of the younger generation don't believe in evil and might even rush to the Hueco Mundo to challenge the Hollows in order to prove their strength.

In addition, the Great Hollow is a valuable asset of the Zero Squad, or the Shinigami, and is the material used to forge Zanpakuto.

This cannot be known to the general public.

They might as well spread this kind of "campus legend" that was similar to an urban legend, and from the time they were students at the Maou Spiritual Arts Academy, they would be on guard against the Hollows, and as soon as they saw one, they would immediately stay away and report it to the captain.

Anyway, after the borders of the Hueco Mundo were reinforced, it was almost impossible for a Hollow to escape.

However, the scattered Hollows in reality and Soul Society find it difficult to evolve into Great Hollows, and they will be discovered and killed by the God of Death.

"I see. Thank you Captain Ukitake for clarifying this."

"Suifeng, you've only been captain for three years. This kind of thing is relatively rare and hard to come by, so it's normal that you don't know."

Ukitake explained with a smile.

After nodding in understanding, Soi-Fong continued:

"My apologies, Captain Ukitake, but that's enough about my journey to the human world."

"As for the rest of the matters, I would like to report them to Mr. Shan first and let him make the final decision before disclosing them."

Soi Fong did not reveal that the Hollow that appeared in the world was an Arrancar, nor was she willing to tell Ukitake the details of her trip.

Because it is very likely that Aizen is eavesdropping nearby.

It is enough to just tell the 13th Division that a Hollow appeared in the world but was dealt with by Soi Fong.

Although this kind of thing is rare, it is not impossible to happen considering the time scale of Soul Society.

Ukitake also understood that Soi Fong was going on an unknown mission, and immediately nodded to show his understanding, then turned the topic to Shiba Kaiyan in the center of the venue.

Chapter 130 Plan

"Haiyan, this is incredible!"

Changing the topic, Fuzhu decided to praise his own petrel.

You know, it hasn't been long since Haiyan became the deputy captain, but he has already begun to comprehend Bankai and is striving to become a captain!

This is a real genius!

Ukitake smiled proudly, turned around to look at Soi Fong, and was about to brag.

Soi Fong was also very tactful and pretended to listen attentively.

Suddenly, Ukitake looked at Soi Fong and realized something.

and many more!

Something is wrong!

Let me think about it!

Fuzhu's brows jumped, realizing that things were not simple.

The Soi Fong in front of me... How long did she serve as vice-captain before becoming captain?

Ukitake thought for a moment and fell silent.

This guy in front of me doesn't seem to have ever been a deputy captain.

She jumped directly from the third seat to the captain!

After learning Bankai, he defeated a captain who became a leader! !

Fuzhu took a deep breath and thought to himself that it was a close call.

"Soi-Fong has only been captain for a few years, and she's already had several small meetings with Kyōraku and me!"

"It made me subconsciously treat her as some centennial captain!"

Because of this misunderstanding, Ukitake almost boasted about Shiba Kaiyan to Soi-Fong like a peer showing off to his juniors!

But Shiba Kaiyan might be even older than Soi Fong!!

Seeing Ukitake turn around, his expression changed from pride to silence, and from silence to constipation.

Broken Bee tilted her head slightly:

"Captain Ukitake, what happened to Deputy Captain Haiyan?"

What does this Baimao Zhongdeng want to say?

He breathes heavily when speaking.

Ukitake held it in for a while before finally speaking:

"Haiyan, he's incredible!"

"He's getting married!"

But Shuifeng nodded and said:

"I know."

"He personally delivered the invitation to me when I took office three years ago."

"Captain Ukitake, you're still right here."

The Grim Reaper’s time scale is quite exaggerated; sending invitations three years in advance is considered “getting married soon.”

Of course, Haiyan later mentioned that he would not get married until his uncle Shiba Isshin came out of seclusion and took over as captain of the 10th Division.

Ukitake: ...

Damn, how could I forget about this!

Use your brain, think of a reason!

A drop of sweat ran down Ukitake's forehead.

Suddenly, he remembered something and raised his right index finger:

"Eh!"

He seemed not to have heard the previous conversation and said:

"Haiyan, he's incredible!"

"I heard that his uncle, Shiba Isshin, is about to be released from confinement!"

Lifting the teacup and taking a sip of the sweet Gyokuro tea [Hagoromo], Ukitake quietly wiped away the sweat on his face and exclaimed in admiration:

"This Haiyan, as Captain Soi-Fong has seen, has also reached the threshold of Bankai."

"Perhaps it won't be long before the Shiba family will have two captains."

"When Haiyan marries Miss Du, it will be a triple blessing!"

Finally getting over this awkward topic, Ukitake Jushiro felt relieved.

Soi-Fong nodded and said, "Indeed."

Among the five great noble families in Soul Society, the Shiba family has been declining over the past hundred years.

Not only are the population sparse, but there are also few people holding important positions.

Fortunately, Shiba Kaiyan appeared out of nowhere and showed amazing talent, stopping the decline of the Shiba family.

In addition, the branch family also produced an equally talented Shiba, which brought the Shiba family back into the sight of Soul Society.

Recently, many people have visited the Shiba family. They have seen their momentum of revival and rise and want to make some investments in advance.

The topic of the Shiba family has been a hot topic in Soul Society recently.

Even people like Soi Fong, who aren't big on gossip, have heard of it.

But this is normal. If all goes well, the Shiba family will have two equally young captains.

Judging from their talents, both of them are extremely talented. It is very likely that they are not ordinary captains who will age rapidly within a hundred years and then abdicate.

In Soul Society, the position of "Captain" is the end point of the struggle of all ordinary Shinigami.

Many minor nobles were able to benefit from the influence of their ancestors who became captains, and were able to change their status from commoners in Rukongai.

Therefore, the news about the change of the captain's position is also the hot news that the Soul Society Shinigami pay the most attention to.

Soi-Feng suddenly thought of something and asked:

"Captain Ukitake, has it been decided that Kaiyan will take over the Thirteenth Division?"

Because Soi Fong was one of their own, Ukitake did not deny it.

He nodded and looked at Haiyan with a gratified look:

"As soon as he masters Bankai, I will recommend him to take the captain's examination."

"Of course, I will still live in the 13th Division for the first few years to help him make a smooth transition."

Thinking of something, Ukitake looked at Soi-Fong and asked with a smile:

"Captain Soi-Fong, if you're going to be the examiner, please be more restrained in your attacks~"

"Haiyan doesn't have the same physique as Captain Komamura, and can't withstand the power of your wind and thunder—"

He remembered Soi Fong's abnormal fighting power.

Although Haiyan is a genius, she has just entered the captain level and is definitely no match for Soi Fong, who has the same invincible spiritual pressure.

Ukitake didn't want to see his designated successor shatter his dream of becoming captain with just two sword strikes.

Then why should I retire? !

Soi-Fong naturally wouldn't refuse, and agreed without hesitation.

If he were to serve as the captain assessment examiner, Yamamoto would most likely let himself, the captain of the combat squad, take action.

First, they are young and inexperienced, making them easy to be assigned orders; second, they are strong and ruthless, which can test the strength of the person being assessed.

Since the captain's hollowing incident, Yamamoto has significantly raised the requirements for captain assessments.

At least the combat capability must be up to standard, and similar group annihilation incidents should be avoided.

During these three years, it’s not that there haven’t been Death Gods who have submitted applications for captain assessment.

But often they fail to pass the qualification review and don’t even get to meet Soi-Fong.

Ukitake and Soi Fong continued chatting, when suddenly, they felt the surging spiritual pressure wave weaken.

The two turned their gaze towards the center of the venue and saw that Shiba Kaiyan had opened her eyes.

The handsome black-haired young man slapped his thigh and stood up straight.

While stretching his muscles freely, he greeted cheerfully:

"Hello, Captain Soi-Fong. Are you here to have tea with Captain Ukitake?"

"Captain, that's about all I have to say for today. I have to go back to Squad 10 to deal with the accumulated team work."
