Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

"it's over?!"

At this moment, Yoruichi, whose right leg was broken, hopped on one leg to Ukitake and the others and asked.

"Although I really hope the battle can end here, I'm afraid it won't be that simple!"

Upon hearing this, Kyoraku shook his head. The captain of the first generation of the Thirteenth Division was not so easily defeated.

"Senior Sister Yoruichi, let me heal you."

Ukitake moved closer to Yoruichi, whose right leg was broken, and knelt down to perform a 'return to the source' treatment on her. Among Araki's disciples, Ukitake was the one with the strongest 'return to the source' ability.

"please!"

Yoruichi nodded to Ukitake upon hearing this.

"Rumble..."

As the deafening explosions continued, endless smoke billowed from the ground, obscuring the view inside. Therefore, Yoruichi and the others didn't know if Zenjoji had been destroyed by their combined attack! However, they dared not be careless, after all, their opponent was a legend!

"boom!"

Just as the flames died down, a sudden gust of wind swept up the smoke and cleared it away.

"Ah! Ah! Ah..."

After the storm subsided, Zenjoji's less-than-ideal condition was revealed. His haori had been burned through, his shihaka had been torn open with numerous large holes, and large areas of his upper body were exposed...

"Is this guy a monster?!"

However, this scene made Kyoraku and the others gasp in shock. Zenjoji Yubin, who had taken the strongest blow from their combined attack, still had smooth, delicate skin beneath his shihaka armor, revealing an eerie luster like white jade. This meant that Kyoraku and the others' attack, apart from making Zenjoji look a bit disheveled, had not actually caused him any real damage.

"Haha! Hahaha..."

"I'm getting serious!!"

Zenjoji laughed wildly and drew his Zanpakuto.

"Really..."

Kyoraku's eyelids twitched slightly as he watched Zenjoji draw his sword.

It may seem unbelievable, but the truth is that they had given their all to fight Zenjoji, and Zenjoji hadn't even used his Zanpakuto...

"I have to use Bankai."

Seeing this scene, Yoruichi also drew her Zanpakuto. She now understood that continuing to hide her strength would make victory impossible.

"I can't use my Bankai in crowded places!"

Kyoraku and Tokina responded almost simultaneously after hearing Yoruichi's words.

"Forehead……"

Both Kyoraku and Tokina were stunned for a moment.

"My Bankai will attack indiscriminately."

Kyoraku first explained why he couldn't use Bankai.

"My Bankai will form a huge domain, and everything that exists within the domain will be attacked by my Zanpakuto."

The situation at Shida Beach seems to be similar to that of Kyoraku.

"You two are really useless!"

Yoruichi showed no mercy in criticizing Kyoraku and Tokina.

"Forehead……"

Kyoraku and Tokina did not refute what they heard.

"Then let me fight against Ukitake's Bankai!"

Yoruichi sighed, but this was the only thing she could do for now.

"My Bankai isn't really suitable for this kind of situation either."

Just after Yoruichi made her decision, Ukitake raised his hand to explain.

"Are you three useless?!"

Yoruichi suddenly felt a bit tired; she really couldn't handle it anymore.

"I am coming……"

On the other side, Zenjōji Yubin had already gathered her strength and charged towards the crowd.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, Yoruichi broke out in a cold sweat. If she were the only one who could perform Bankai, she didn't have enough confidence to stop this beast in front of her!

Just as Yoruichi was thinking this, Zenjoji Temple, which had been far away, had somehow appeared in front of her, its enormous fist, carrying a powerful gust of wind, aimed straight at Yoruichi's head...

"boom!"

Just as Zenjoji began to get serious, the rest of the original 13 squad members, who had been watching the show, immediately used Shunpo to arrive on the battlefield from afar...

In the blink of an eye, the area around Zenjoji, Kyoraku, Ukitake, Tokinada, and Yoruichi was filled with the captains of the first Gotei 13.

For a while...

Zenjoji maintained his punching motion, his fist stopping steadily about one centimeter from Yoruichi's head.

"So fast……"

Yoruichi looked at Zenjoji beside her and realized that the other party was not only huge, but also incredibly fast, so fast that she didn't even have time to dodge.

As for the three people behind Yoruichi, Kyoraku, Ukitake, and Tokina, they were completely under the control of the first generation of the Thirteenth Division captains and could not move an inch.

"I surrender!"

Kyoraku's gaze swept across the faces of the captains around him, and finally he helplessly raised his hands.

"Kid! True surrender isn't just saying the word 'surrender' and then preparing high-level demonic arts around your hands, ready to counterattack at any moment~"

With a swift movement, Odanjiro appeared beside Kyoraku, placed his hand on Kyoraku's shoulder, and spoke with a smile.

"Eh? Have you been discovered?"

Upon hearing this, Kyoraku looked helpless and immediately dispelled the demonic energy in his hand.

However, Odanjiro could sense that Kyoraku's muscles were constantly tense, ready to counterattack at any moment.

"I like this kid~ I'll take care of him!"

To this, Odanjiro chuckled lightly, grabbed Kyoraku's hand, and ran off into the distance.

"Then I'll leave him to him!"

Wang Tuchuan Yuxufei looked at Fukitake Jushiro.

"I'll train this little girl!"

Shikatori Hakunsai walked over to Yoruichi's side as he spoke.

"It's so troublesome!"

"Anyway, you seem to be the smartest of the four. I hope you can complete the graduation requirements your master left for you the fastest~"

With a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, Shijima Chigiri spoke casually to Tsunayoshi Tokinada.

In no time, 'Shijima Chigiri', 'Odan Jiro', 'Otogawa Amoebi', and 'Shikatori Hakunsai' all chose their respective training partners...

"Hehehe! This old man is also quite interested in this brat! Let me get involved too~"

Nigu Saizo preached to Shijima Chigiri.

"Whatever you want~"

Shijima Chigiri replied indifferently.

"Tsk~"

This made Shi Tan feel uneasy. Were they some kind of commodity? To be picked over here at will? Was this truly the consequence of insufficient strength?

As for Yoruichi Shihouin's training, in addition to Shikatori Hakunsai, Zenjoji Yubin also joined the team!

Besides Odanjiro, Nobuaki no Tsuna also has his eye on Kyoraku Shunsui...

The most interested parties were Ukitake, including 'Wang Tuchuan Yuxufei', 'Hisami Enjing Tetsu', and 'Izumi Kinroku'.

Meanwhile, considering that some people might not be able to fully unleash their potential if Kyoraku, Ukitake, Yoruichi, and Tokina trained together, the original 13th Division captains, along with Kyoraku and the others, trained separately in the four corners of Araki Reservoir.

"Hey, Oodanjiro-senpai! Are you sure our fight won't bother anyone else?!"

Kyoraku Shunsui looked at Odanjiro and asked.

"Of course! All four corners of Araki's detached palace are shrouded in powerful barriers. Unless our spiritual pressure exceeds that of Araki himself, we absolutely cannot interfere with anyone else."

Oodanjiro explained the structure of Araki Rikyu.

"I understand now~" Kyoraku Shunsui looked relieved upon hearing this, then calmly said while holding his Zanpakuto, "Bankai..."

At the same time, in other corners of Araki Reservoir, Ukitake, Tokina, and Yoruichi also raised their Zanpakuto almost simultaneously, whispering, "Bankai!!"

Chapter 96 Fifty Years: The Development and Changes of Team Thirteen (Second Update)

"Heavenly Mad Bones - Black Pine Heart!!"

As Kyoraku unleashed his Bankai, a graceful figure flashed past behind him, followed by a beautiful pattern resembling a black pine tree that bloomed on the ground where Kyoraku's Zanpakuto had touched...

Along with the pattern appeared an endless, extremely cold spiritual pressure. The immense spiritual pressure alone caused Odanjiro and Shigenobu Takenatsu to tremble in their hearts.

"So that's why you can't use Bankai in front of your comrades?!"

After feeling this immense and chilling spiritual pressure, Odanjiro suddenly understood why Kyoraku had been unable to achieve Bankai.

Indeed, if Kyoraku were to unleash his Bankai in front of his companions, he would inevitably drag everyone else into this powerful Bankai as well…

"I'm sorry! My Bankai isn't really suitable for use during training. Once I use it, it's basically a matter of either the enemy or I dying! Theoretically, my Bankai is only effective when I'm fatally wounded by an enemy. However, if that happens, one of us, myself or Senior Two-Dimensional, will likely perish. Therefore, I chose to use my Bankai ahead of schedule..."

Kyoraku, who was sitting on the ground, first apologized to Odanjiro and Shigeno Taketsuna, and then began to explain his Bankai ability.

"Since we've never hurt each other, we'll start directly from Act Three!"

"Third section: The Abyss of Broken Fish! Those who are prepared, throw themselves together into the gushing water until their spiritual pressure is completely exhausted."
