In Soul Society, I just want to retire

Maybe Kenpachi Zaraki's combat power can really be infinitely improved as designed in the original work, but the power he can withstand has its limits. Just like after activating his Bankai, although his attack power is off the charts and his blade can cut through everything it passes through, his body cannot withstand such a huge force, and he is scrapped after just a few moves!

Although the young Kenpachi had not learned Bankai or even Shikai at this time, his strength could still be continuously improved in battles with strong opponents until he broke through his physical limits.

"It seems that this is the limit of what you can bear! Do you want to continue?" Yamabuki Detang appeared in front of the young Kenpachi in an instant and grabbed his neck.

Although the young Kenpachi's right hand was broken, he reacted quickly and directly handed the knife in his right hand to his left hand. Relying on his trained left hand, he was determined to chop the man in front of him.

"clang!"

The knife chopped down Yamabuki Detang's wrist without mercy, but what shocked the young Kenpachi was that when he swung down with all his strength, his left wrist would have broken because it could not withstand the huge pressure, but this man's wrist was only cut with a white mark, and the skin was not even broken!

This guy is not a human being at all!

Both Steel Skin and Still Blood Suit become stronger as spiritual pressure increases. At this moment, looking at the entire Soul Society, Yamabuki Detang's spiritual pressure is probably surpassed by only the Soul King. Moreover, spiritual pressure represents the density of the soul, and the God of Death itself is a spiritual body.

Therefore, the stronger the spiritual pressure, the stronger the defense of the Shinigami itself. This can be seen in the first battle between Kenpachi and Ichigo.

Ichigo tried his best to strike Kenpachi Zaraki in the chest, but ended up injuring his own hand.

This is because the difference in spiritual pressure between the two people was too great at that time!

With the blessing of these three conditions, there are only a few people in Soul Society who can break through Yamabuki Detang's defense.

"Both his hands are broken, do you still want to fight?" Shanchui Ditang said with a smile. After all, the child is just a child, and he can't cause any trouble in his hands!

The young Kenpachi jerked his head back and headbutted Yamaki Detang in the nose.

As a result, before he could touch Yamabuki Detang, the young Kenpachi's head was grabbed and pressed to the ground.

"Damn you brat!" Shanchui Ditang laughed and cursed.

The young Kenpachi struggled desperately, but the power gap between the two sides was too big. Even if the young Kenpachi risked his life, he could not break free from the restraints.

Yamabuki Detang grabbed the young Kenpachi's head, suddenly threw him into the air, and punched him in the chest.

"puff!"

Blood spurted out of the young Kenpachi's mouth, and his body hit a big tree behind him, breaking more than a dozen bones in his chest and abdomen.

Yamabuki Ditang was not afraid to beat him to death directly. This kid's vitality was stronger than that of a cockroach. In the bloody battle in the next thousand years, even if his whole body was twisted by Penida, he still survived!

This punch is just a drizzle to the kid in front of him!

But even so, the young Kenpachi lost his fighting ability on the spot, lying on the ground coughing up blood. It seemed that the broken bones had pierced his lungs.

"Did I go a little too hard? He's still a child after all!" Yamabuki Ditang turned and looked at his teammates.

The team members faced it with a wry smile and said, "As long as you are happy, whatever you say is what it is!"

Unohana had already treated the wounds on her body at this time. Because she had the shield of the Death Armor on her body, the injuries she suffered were only superficial, which could be healed quickly using Kaido.

"This child...will he die if we leave him here?" Unohana asked worriedly.

Yamabuki Detang looked at the young Kenpachi who was vomiting blood on the ground, walked over to him, squatted down, and began to treat the boy's injuries, first his broken wrists, then his broken bones. Under Kaido's treatment, the boy Kenpachi's injuries slowly recovered. The boy Kenpachi did not resist, but stared at the man straight.

"Kid, what's your name?" Yamabuki Ditang asked without raising his head. At this time, the young Kenpachi actually didn't have a name of his own and didn't know how to answer.

"If you don't have a name, I'll give you one. How about Kenpachi? The strongest Shinigami in history will be given this name. You are from Zaraki Street, so I'll call you Kenpachi Zaraki from now on." Yamabuki Ditang said lightly.

Unohana tilted her head slightly in curiosity. How could the strongest Shinigami of all time be given the title "Kenpachi"? When did this rule come about? How come I didn't know about this?

Yamabuki Detang turned around and winked at his wife. The couple were connected in heart, and Unohana immediately realized that her husband was playing a trick on the children!

"My name is Yamabuki Toto, and I'm a member of the Gotei 13. Kid, if you want to join the Gotei 13 in the future, come to Soul Society to find me." Yamabuki Toto gave the young Kenpachi's wounds a simple treatment so that these wounds would not be life-threatening. As for the rest, leave it to Kenpachi Zaraki's beastly recovery ability!

After treating Kenpachi Zaraki's wounds, Yamabuki Detang came to his wife again and helped her treat her wounds.

The wound was treated quickly.

Make sure not even a trace of scar will be left.

Unohana looked at the young Kenpachi and whispered, "Why don't we take him back? He's a good seedling. If he's trained well, he'll definitely become a powerful warrior in the future!"

Yamabuki Ditang whispered, "Even if we take him, what's the harm? A tiger is a tiger because it lives in the jungle. If it's kept in captivity, is it still a tiger? It's just a sick cat! He has his own growth trajectory. When he figures it out, he might come to the Gotei 13 to find us."

Unohana nodded. Forcibly interfering in other people's growth trajectory might not be a good thing, and it might even backfire.

After everyone left, the young Kenpachi lay in the snow. Today was such a happy day. There was actually such a strong person in this world.

A moment later, the young Kenpachi stood up from the snow and ice, and from then on he had a new goal.

I have to become stronger, at least stronger than the man I met today!

It turns out that I can enjoy such a wonderful creation without suppressing my strength!

What a point of suppressing that!

He dragged his painful wrists to pull his Zanpakutō out of the tree. The moment his fingers touched the sword, a gentle female voice came from the Zanpakutō to his heart.

"You finally heard my voice. Do you want to know my name so that you can gain longer power?"

Chapter 36: Shijima Chigiri's resignation letter

After returning to Seireitei, Yamabuki Detang had just sat down in his chair when Chojiro Suzuka ran over to deliver a message.

"Brother Yamabuki, the captain wants to see you for something and asks you to come over." Chojiro Suzuki said.

After seventy years of growth, Chojiro Suzuki's appearance has also grown from a boy to a young man.

"Huh? Old man, you have something to talk to me about?" Yamabuki Ditang was a little stunned. Now, unless something very important happened, the captain would not ask him to discuss something.

Could it be that something major happened in Soul Society during the half day I was away?

Yamabuki Ditang did not dare to delay and hurried to the squadron's barracks. The captain was sitting there staring at a document in his hand with a worried look between his brows.

Yamabuki Ditang was very curious. What could have made the old man so worried?

After Yamabuki Detou arrived, Chojiro Suzuki sensibly retreated, leaving only the captain and Yamabuki Detou in the room.

"Captain, is there something wrong?" Yamabuki Ditang asked curiously.

The captain sighed softly, then handed the document in his hand to Yamabuki Ditang: "Take a look at this first!"

Yamabuki Ditang read the document carefully and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. So that's how it is. No wonder the captain was worried!

In fact, the content of this document is very simple and does not involve the survival of the world. It is a very simple resignation letter. The person who wrote this resignation letter is Shijima Chigiri.

The current captain of the 4th Division of the Gotei 13.

Yamabuki Detang never imagined that the first captain to resign would be the usually low-key Shijima Chigiri.

"What do you think about this matter? Should I let him go?" The captain was a little embarrassed.

Because in essence, when the Gotei 13 were formed seventy years ago, the captains and Yamabuki Toto were all partners. Now some people are tired of this kind of life and want to leave. Logically speaking, he, as the captain-in-chief, should not stop them.

And since Shijima Chigiri handed in this letter of resignation, it meant that he had decided to leave. Even if he was forced to stay, it would only add to the embarrassment.

Yamabuki Ditang signed his name on the resignation letter without hesitation.

"You are so generous and did him a favor. But who will lead the Fourth Division after he leaves? We can't have a team without a leader, right?" asked the captain.

This is also one of the reasons why the captain-general does not want to let people go. Captain-level combat power may only appear a few times in a hundred years. Now that Shishima Chigiri has resigned, who will take over is indeed a difficult problem.

Yamabuki Detang took a sip of tea and suddenly said, "Old man, do you still remember the idea I mentioned to you over seventy years ago about forming a special medical unit? It was only due to a shortage of manpower at the time that this idea was not realized. Now that we have more soldiers and more generals, isn't it time to make this a reality? You know, having one more medic on the battlefield greatly increases the chances of survival. Even if Yhwach is temporarily repelled, there will be more crises waiting for us in the future. We must be prepared for it."

Captain Yamamoto asked, "Are you planning to transform the 4th Division into a dedicated medical division? Who will take on this role? Kirinji Tenshiro may be a highly skilled doctor, but he's been serving as a doctor for years and hasn't been involved in the team's work. If I were to just parachute him into the 4th Division, I'm afraid the members wouldn't accept it."

"I can recommend someone, Unohana Yachiru." Yamabuki Detang recommended his wife without hesitation.

In fact, he also has selfish motives. Once the Fourth Division successfully transforms, it will be transformed from a combat division to a logistics and treatment division, and will have fewer opportunities to go to the battlefield.

He saw the battle between Unohana and the young Kenpachi today, and it hurt his heart.

It would be better to send Unohana to the medical team to take care of logistics.

Captain Yamamoto said in shock, "Are you kidding me? Unohana is the captain of the crime treatment team? Understanding the human body structure and the causes of disease are two completely different things!"

"Don't worry about that. Her medical skills are second only to mine and Kirinji Tenshiro's in the entire Soul Society. She's more than enough to treat common knife and sword wounds. Besides, I can continue to teach her so that her medical skills will continue to improve." Yamabuki Ditang said, "The only drawback is that the position of captain of the 11th Division is vacant, and we need to find a new fighter!"

Yamabuki Detang was completely in the dark about the second generation Kenpachi.

From the bloody battle a thousand years ago to the start of the main storyline two or three hundred years ago, both the anime and the comics have very little description of this period of time. He only knows that the captain of the 11th Division replaced him very quickly, with six captains in just six or seven hundred years.

It was not until more than two hundred years before the main storyline began that Kenpachi Kuriyashiki defeated the sixth generation Kenpachi single-handedly and emerged out of nowhere. He was extremely powerful, and even Squad Zero extended an olive branch to him, but unfortunately he rejected it.

As a result, not long after, Kenpachi Zaraki defeated Kenpachi Kuryashiki with his mysterious ability of Bankai.

In fact, that battle was controversial because Kenpachi Kuyashiki could activate his Bankai before his death and drag the entire Soul Society down with him, but he did not do so and chose to accept his own death.

Not long after Kenpachi Zaraki became the captain of the 11th Division, he started causing trouble. In the end, he had no choice but to surrender himself and was suppressed in the hell.

As a result, the position of "Kenpachi" became vacant. There was no other choice but to let the then vice-captain of the 11th Division, Gosuke, temporarily inherit the position of captain. However, not long after, a rough man from Rukongai, Kenpachi Kiyomizu, defeated this unqualified "Kenpachi" and became the tenth generation Kenpachi!

According to the recollections of later captains, this was a very rude but arrogant man, hated by everyone. He did not hold the position of Kenpachi for long before Kenpachi Zaraki appeared. It was rumored that Kenpachi Zaraki killed Kenpachi Kiganjo with just one blow and won the position of captain of the 11th Division.

In just two hundred years, the 11th Squadron has undergone five captain changes. For an organization, frequent changes of leaders are not conducive to long-term development.

At the same time, there is no information about the second to sixth generations of Kenpachi, and no one knows why Unohana became the captain of the Fourth Division in the original world line, and how the second generation Kenpachi came to the position.

It's all a puzzle.

After asking this question, Yamabuki Ditang found that the captain was staring at him.

"Um...Captain, why are you looking at me like that?" A sinister premonition flashed through Yamabuki Ditang's mind.

The captain reached out and patted Yamabuki Ditang on the shoulder: "I have already chosen someone for the position of captain of the 11th Division."

The smile on Yamabuki Ditang's face grew increasingly stiff: "You... aren't you talking about me?"

"Hahaha! You're worthy of being the Chief of Staff, so smart!"

Chapter 37: The Second Kenpachi, Yamabuki Detang

Yamabuki Ditang hurriedly said, "Captain, are you mistaken? I'm a civilian, how can I be the captain of the 11th Division? The 11th Division is the most powerful team in our Gotei 13, and it must be led by the most powerful person..."

Wait, it seems like I’m the one with the strongest fighting power now!

"I... I don't have that much energy! I also have to manage the General Staff, and I have to control the general direction of development at all times, don't you think?" Yamabuki Ditang didn't want to put such a dangerous task on himself.

Captain Yamamoto calmly took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Young man, I believe in your ability. You will definitely become the best captain. Besides, the members of the 11th Division also believe in your abilities. I am optimistic about you!"

You're still young, and I'm almost a hundred years old! Why do I still have to do so much work?

And from your expression, I know you definitely don't want to give me a raise. And even if you do, it's pointless. Just give all your wages to your wife! Although Unohana never limits her financial freedom, something doesn't feel right!

"It's settled! As soon as Shijima Chigiri leaves, I will immediately transfer Unohana to the Fourth Division as captain, and then you will naturally become the new captain of the Eleventh Division. Good luck." Captain Yamamoto decided the matter directly.

Yamabuki Detang walked outside dejectedly. Oh, and by the way, he went to see Shijima Chigiri.

Yamabuki Detang came to the 4th Division's barracks and found that Shijima Chigiri was surrounded by many members of the 4th Division.

"Captain, we heard you're resigning? Is this true? Why? Have you been wronged? Tell us, and we'll definitely help you resolve it!"

"Yes! Captain, if you have any difficulties, tell us and we will definitely find a way to help you solve it."

"Captain, what will we do if you leave? Are you facing any difficulties? We may not be able to help you due to our limited abilities, but we still have the Chief of Staff and the Captain! They will definitely find a way to help you!"

Looking at his lovely teammates, Shijima Chigiri smiled wryly: "Why are you all so sad? I just changed jobs, it's not a life-and-death separation. I live in Rukongai, and you can come visit me anytime if you have time."

"Cough cough!" Yamabuki Ditang coughed lightly, attracting the attention of all the team members.

"Chief of Staff, you are here. Please find a way to persuade the captain!" The team members all looked sad.

After all, they were comrades who had been together for over seventy years. How could there be no feelings at all? Furthermore, although Shijima Chigiri was a former assassin, he was usually kind and well-loved by his teammates.

Yamabuki Detang took out Shijima Chigiri's resignation letter from the clothes, with his own signature and that of the captain-general on it.

After seeing this scene, the team members all showed sad expressions on their faces.

"Everyone, please go out first. I have something to say to your captain." said Yamabuki Ditang.

All the team members left the team barracks, leaving only Yamabuki Detang and Shijima Chigiri here.

"How about we go for a drink?" Shanbuki Ditang said with a smile.

The two of them set up a small banquet and toasted each other.

"Actually, I've long expected the captain of the Gotei 13 to change, but I didn't expect it to come so soon, and that you'd be the first to leave." Yamabuki Toto's tone was filled with helplessness. "Can you tell me your reason? I'm so curious!"

Shijima Chigiri took a sip of wine from the small wine cup, then looked at the small wine cup in his hand: "It's nothing, really. I just don't want to live this kind of life anymore. Fighting against the Invisible Empire is the responsibility of every member of Soul Society. Now that the biggest crisis has been resolved, can't I take a break?"

Yamabuki Ditang gave a bitter smile. It turned out that he was not the only one who had always wanted to retire. Everyone had this idea, but they just had never said it out loud.

Yamabuki Detang can still remember the scene when he first met Shijima Chigi. The two of them had a fight over a minor murder case, and he almost beat Shijima Chigi to death.
