Chapter 100, Section 097: The Vice-Captain and His Group

A brief moment of thought, a swift decision.

"impossible."

Jushiro Ukitake's tone was unusually firm, as if he were convincing himself, as he repeated himself.

"This kind of thing—it shouldn't happen."

Zanpakuto are reflections of one's own mind; there is no reason for them to have different forms and abilities.

Although it may be impolite, Jushiro Ukitake expressed his opinion quite frankly.

"I don't think this would happen unless there's a mental health issue."

"Wow—you can be quite sharp-tongued sometimes."

After finishing his rant, Kyoraku Shunsui composed himself slightly and nodded at that moment.

"Actually, my thoughts are almost exactly the same as yours—"

There are no two identical Zanpakuto in the world (this is questionable), and naturally, there shouldn't be any Zanpakuto that can take on different forms and have different abilities.

"Could this be a phase of liberation? A possible incomplete form?"

As the team leader, being knowledgeable and experienced is one of his characteristics.

The hypothesis that Jushiro Ukitake is proposing at this moment is exactly the same situation mentioned in the original work (as in the case of Yumichika Ayasegawa).

However, this is also different.

Kyoraku Shunsui shook his head and stated his position decisively.

"Even if it's a phased liberation, there can't be a fundamental change in its essence—it's even more impossible for a Zanpakuto that was originally a Kido-type to suddenly exhibit abilities from other types, right?"

'

"

After a long silence, Ukitake Jushiro asked softly.

"What's that young man's name?"

"Yusuke Matsushita."

Kyoraku Shunsui took a sip of the tea in front of him and repeated with a smile.

"He's a genius who might become our colleague in the future."

On the other side, Shinji Hirako chatted with the others for a while, exchanging opinions, and finally someone realized what was going on.

"Where is Guiyan City?"

They were discussing something related to him, but the person in question wasn't even present.

"We notified them, but they refuse to come—are they afraid of being beaten?"

It turns out that people really do laugh out loud when they feel helpless.

"Really? What's wrong with that guy—is he even a captain?"

"Indigo dye, indigo dye?"

"————?"

Aizen Sosuke snapped out of his daze and half-raised his head.

He saw a figure standing beside him with one hand on his hip, looking down at him.

The other person pushed up their glasses and said in a subtle tone.

"What's wrong? I've been calling you for ages and you haven't responded. What are you thinking about?"

Although they were wearing the same style of shihaka, the other party had deliberately cut it into a style similar to a short skirt.

It's very eye-catching and has a unique style.

But Aizen Sousuke only glanced at it before looking away, turning his gaze to the other person's face instead.

Lisa Yadomaru.

Eighth Division Vice-Captain —

He slowly stood up, gently pressed his temples, and said with a smile.

-

"Excuse me, I was thinking about something else for a moment—is there anything I can help you with?"

Lisa Yadomaru shoved a whole can of beer into his arms.

"Would you like a bottle?"

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

The vice-captain usually accompanies the captain, especially for meetings like this one.

While the captain held a meeting next door, the vice-captain and others would wait in a specially arranged room.

Although there has never been an official requirement for the vice-captain to wait outside, it has become a customary practice over time.

Holding the can of beer in his hand, Aizen Sousuke's smile carried a strange sense of helplessness.

"The captain and others are discussing matters next door, while we're drinking and having fun here—"

To my shame, it all seems rather inappropriate.

And then again...

"Where did you get this?"

Lisa Yadomaru opened a bottle by herself and pointed to the left.

"It's a free gift from Ku-nan, everyone gets a share."

99

Lieutenant of the Ninth Division, Kunan Shiro.

She is a woman with green hair, dressed quite fashionably, and with a rather flamboyant personality.

(He appeared as a member of the Visoreds in the original work, and almost got killed by Ichigo during a sparring session. He was incredibly pathetic.)

"This is Kensei treating everyone, please don't be shy!"

Seeing that Ōmaeda had already accepted the canned food, Aizen Sōsuke smiled silently and also made the same decision to follow the crowd.

laugh----

The drinks flowed freely, and the atmosphere became lively.

The vice-captain and others who had gathered there also began to discuss the matter.

"So what's the purpose of calling the captain here today?"

"It seems that it was because of some very capable young man that the captain of the Eleventh Division was driven away."

"Oh no!!! Team captain—was he defeated by a rookie?"

"Don't be so surprised. That Gui Yancheng was just an empty shell. I've heard the captain mention him before—"

Compared to the serious atmosphere of the captain-level meetings, the communication between vice-captains was not only peaceful but also much simpler, and the way they addressed each other was quite colloquial.

"Sousuke, I heard that you know this young man. Is that true?"

The sudden greeting was quite forceful.

Although it was spoken by a woman, you could still sense that she was up to no good.

Aizen Sousuke turned his head and looked over. The other person was a woman with long hair and a face that looked to be around fifty years old.

She had very obvious nasolabial folds on her face, her lips were pursed, and her expression was serious.

Judging from her appearance alone, she is the image of a strong woman who manages the major affairs of the household—and this is even more so now that she is wearing the Shihachi uniform.

The shooting range is filled with iron.

He was the vice-captain of the Third Division at the time, and also a member of the team who was "more senior than Rojuro Ootori".

It is said that this guy still makes many decisions in the team — of course, this is also because Rojuro Touhou is not good at political affairs.

at the same time.

This senior member is the kind of person who commands great respect among the vice-captains.

Aizen put down the drink, nodded in acknowledgment, and then spoke.

"There is some connection, I suppose. He was one of my students at the Spiritual Arts Academy—he took calligraphy classes with me for over a year."

"Oh! You really know each other?!"

'

"Hey, Aizen! What kind of person is that?"

"Who knows, he might even become the captain of the 11th Division directly?"

"Haha, that's too much—at least you should familiarize yourself with how the Gotei 13 works."

Omaeda, standing to the side, smiled without saying a word, seemingly enjoying the situation as well—even though this guy should be the one with the most say.

Amidst the clamor of discussion, Aizen Sousuke calmly dealt with it, taking the opportunity to ponder a few things.

What kind of person was he?

A moment later, he had his answer.

"He's a very interesting young man who should change things in the Gotei 13."
