Crossover: A Different Inuyasha.

Chapter 171 Employee Leader

The Netherworld, the Capital of Reincarnation.

The vast outer city stretches across the land, trains rumble, and crowds throng.

The elevated railway tracks spread out like a spider web, and the high-speed trains that circle the city are driven by spiritual power, shuttling between the eight major areas day and night.

On the streets and alleys, ghosts from more than ten worlds thronged together, dressed in different clothes and speaking in a mixed language.

Hundreds of billions of people gathered and settled here, filling the underworld capital of the Eastern Kingdom to an impenetrable density.

The outer city continues to expand outwards—every few months, new neighborhoods rise from the edges, and new ring roads extend further into the distance.

Life and death, joy and sorrow, separation and reunion.

These eight characters encapsulate the joys and sorrows of people in this world.

However, within the inner city, where the dragon overlooks the eight directions, lies a completely different scene.

The city walls rise high like cliffs, clearly separating the inner and outer cities.

Every so often, a watchtower stood on the city wall, flying the flags of the Eastern Kingdom. The streets inside the city were wide and well-organized.

The buildings on both sides are constructed of dark stone and spirit wood, with upturned eaves and rows of pillars, possessing both the elegance of the Soul Society and the grandeur of the Eastern Kingdom.

Shinigami dressed in Shinigami uniforms modified from Shutara Senjumaru, with canine tooth markings on both shoulders, came in an endless stream.

The black shihaka robes and white haoris flowed together in the sunlight, and the captains' figures occasionally swept past from above, creating ripples of spiritual pressure.

The Gotei 13 has more than 30,000 members.

The Soul Society, which failed to wipe out the Wandenreich a year ago, had only about three thousand members at its peak, but now that number has increased more than tenfold.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni held the position of Captain-Commander, with thirteen captains leading their respective squads. Each squad was further divided into sub-teams, and each sub-team was further divided into smaller squads, forming a complex organization resembling a giant, leafy tree.

The Shinigami Academy, which has moved from Soul Society to Reincarnation City, is located beneath the Inner Castle and occupies an entire city block.

Eight branch campuses were laid out along the eight directions of the inner city.

Each branch school has its own school buildings, training grounds, ghost path practice rooms, and spirit particle research rooms.

Above the branch campuses, there is the main campus located in the inner city, which is responsible for coordinating teaching and assessment; it can be seen as the education bureau of the mortal world.

The eight branch campuses, which now attract a large number of students, are already overcrowded.

Among the hundreds of billions of souls, no fewer than 100,000 geniuses are reported from below every day. However, the number of places available for admission to the eight branch academies is limited, so the admission standards have to be continuously raised. At present, only those with spiritual pressure at the level of a born vice captain are allowed to enroll.

As the old man Yamamoto watched the new students who enrolled and graduated and joined the Gotei 13, he couldn't stop smiling every day, and his kind face grew even more benevolent.

Some of the rejected souls refused to leave and rented houses around the branch campus to attend secondary colleges a little further away.

Day after day, the neighborhoods surrounding the branch campuses gradually sprang up with schools, bookstores, martial arts halls, and all sorts of cram schools, forming a "university town" surrounding the eight Shinigami Academy branch campuses.

Meanwhile, driven by geniuses, the records of the Shinigami Academy were repeatedly broken, and every few days a new name was engraved on the main academy's wall of honor.

Some people mastered Shikai within five months, reaching the level of a vice-captain; others mastered Kido up to level 60 within three months, displaying extraordinary talent.

The most famous name among them is Gintoki, who graduated in just six months, mastered Bankai, and became the first leader of the Eighth Division, with strength comparable to that of a captain.

At the Shinigami Academy, he was exactly the kind of "other people's child" that parents and teachers often talked about.

It is said that on the day he graduated, even the captain personally inquired about him.

"Gintoki, the team leader."

Inside the inner city, in the corridor of the Eighth Division's residence, the passing Shinigami all stepped aside to make way for Gintoki, who carried the name of genius, and nodded in greeting.

His tone was respectful, yet also somewhat friendly.

After all, although Gintoki was promoted quickly, he was not arrogant and would occasionally make harmless jokes with people in the corridor.

Inuyasha's clone, Gintoki, nodded in response to each of them, and without stopping, walked through the corridor, turned the corner, and stopped in front of the vice-captain's office, raising his hand to knock twice.

"Come in."

Push the door open and enter.

Ise Nanao was hunched over her desk reviewing files, her glasses perched on her nose. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw Gintoki, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Going out to fight evil spirits again?"

She put down her pen, adjusted her glasses, and looked somewhat helpless.

"Going out seven or eight times a month, even if you're strong, you're bound to encounter danger one day. I heard from the Twelfth Division that an evil spirit king has been born in the outer realms. You'd better be careful."

Where there is light, there is darkness.

Despite Inuyasha's constant pursuit of women, he's also doing serious work on ordinary days.

Not long after the Netherworld Hell of the Hagoromo Province was incorporated into the Netherworld of the Eastern Country, Inuyasha also incorporated the Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and even the Netherworld Hells of the Red Night World, the Blazing Sword World, and modern Tokyo into them.

The same will happen in the world of Teigu.

In this ever-expanding territory, the area outside of the Reincarnation Capital is collectively known as the Eight Outer Domains. In these Outer Domains, the turbid energy of the underworld mixed with a little negative emotion can give birth to truly evil spirits and vengeful ghosts, which devour the souls of living beings reincarnated from other worlds in order to strengthen their own power.

Evil spirits and vengeful ghosts can basically be seen as voids of the underworld, but they do not have the status of being part of the spirit particle loop and are regarded by the Grim Reaper as objects that must be eliminated.

"A demonic ghost king can become the first realm by devouring ten people, the second realm by fifty people, the third realm by two thousand people, and the fourth realm by fifty thousand people. Given the number of people from other regions, if we don't act quickly, there will be more ghost kings than death gods."

Inuyasha spoke as he walked in.

"Therefore, the Captain-General and the City Lord have decided to establish eight satellite cities in the eight outer domains to support and accommodate the souls in the vicinity."

Ise Nanao said, "You frequently accept missions to explore outer regions and kill evil spirits. Do you really want to be promoted from squad leader to vice-captain?"

The current Gotei 13 consists of thirteen captains, followed by two to five vice-captains, with each vice-captain having approximately one thousand members.

Below the vice-captain are five to ten squad leaders, each with a vice-captain as their deputy. Below them are ten to twenty squad leaders, and then the ordinary Shinigami (death gods).

Inuyasha did not answer immediately.

He walked around to the side of the table, placed one hand on the surface, and leaned down.

The distance between the two suddenly closed, so close that Ise Nanao could clearly see the shadow cast by his eyelashes and smell the fragrance on his body.

Other women!

Ise Nanao's eyes darkened slightly.

"Isn't that what Nanao-nee said?" Inuyasha said with a smile, "If you become the vice-captain, you'll agree to be my girlfriend."

Upon hearing this, Ise Nanao's ears immediately burned.

"That was just a casual word of encouragement, it doesn't count!"

She leaned back instinctively, her back pressed against the chair back, her voice carrying a hint of panic as she tried to cover it up, "Don't take this seriously!"

Inuyasha moved a little closer.

With nowhere to retreat, Ise Nanao could only watch helplessly as that hand reached across the table, grabbed her wrist, and forced her down onto the table.

The files were scattered all over the floor, and the ink bottle shook twice but did not fall over.

Her back pressed against the cool tabletop, her death suit stretched taut, the lines of her upper body clearly defined beneath the fabric.

The girl with glasses, who is usually serious, has a pretty good figure.

"Gintoki, what are you doing—"

Ise Nanao turned her head away, not daring to meet his gaze.

His cheeks were flushed as if he were drunk, and his breathing was heavy and disordered.

My chest heaved with my rapid heartbeat.

She tried to struggle, but he held her wrist down, preventing her from moving.

"Don't you like Vice-Captain Matsumoto?"

She bit her lower lip. "I'll go introduce you to them."

"I'm already tired of this flatbread."

Inuyasha leaned down, his hot breath hitting her cheek.

He looked at the contrasting expression on the bespectacled girl's face—the usually meticulous and stern vice-captain was now blushing, tilting her head, biting her lip, and even her breathing was trembling.

"I love seeing Nanao-nee's serious expression like that."

"You bastard."

Ise Nanao's scolding was so soft it sounded like a coquettish complaint, and even she herself felt ashamed to hear it.

She closed her eyes and after a long while, she managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"Among those women, who do you actually like?"

Inuyasha answered without hesitation, "I like them both."

Upon hearing this, Ise Nanao suddenly opened her eyes, her anger overpowering her shame. She pushed Inuyasha off her with both hands.

She propped herself up on the table, her hair disheveled, her glasses askew, and the collar of her shinigami outfit wrinkled.

The girl with glasses didn't bother to tidy herself up; she just glared angrily at Inuyasha.

"What a scumbag."

Ise Nanao said angrily, "Trying to have your cake and eat it too will never end well!"

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Inuyasha smiled, casually straightened his wrinkled sleeves, picked up a mission file from the table, and walked towards the door.

As he walked to the door, he turned his head and waved to Ise Nanao, who was still sitting on the edge of the table, looking annoyed.

"Sister Qixu, once I accumulate a few more merits, the vice-captain and you will both be mine. Bye-bye."

The door closed behind him, and the footsteps faded into the distance.

Ise Nanao sat at the table, staring at the files on the floor, her chest heaving for a while before calming down.

She raised her hand, straightened her crooked glasses, tidied her disheveled hair, and then bent down to smooth out the wrinkles on her clothes.

"Damn Gintoki."

Ise Nanao muttered a curse under her breath, her expression somewhat gloomy.

She still doesn't understand when she fell into the other party's trap; it all seems so natural.

"We can't let that bastard get his way; we have to do something."

A glint of light flashed in her glasses, and Ise Nanao had an idea.

Inuyasha led his squad members through the corridors of the Eighth Division's headquarters, heading towards the teleportation arrays located within each division.

He was followed by dozens of figures, their steps were neat and their auras were steady. They were all his subordinates whom he had personally trained over the past few months.

Leading the group was a tall and aloof figure.

Her long, light brown hair was braided and hung down her back.

His face was aloof, and his eyes carried an innate sense of detachment, as if he were someone who had been alone for many years and was used to not getting close to others.

The death knight outfit looked heroic and sharp on her.

The two are Yugito, from the Hidden Cloud City of the Divine Tree World.

Not long after graduating, she stood out in the 8th Division with her outstanding strength and daring fighting spirit, and was recruited by Inuyasha to become his vice-captain.

His fighting style is decisive and ruthless; he never hesitates to act. In several missions to exterminate evil spirits, he was always the first to charge into the enemy ranks and the last to retreat.

The Grim Reapers on the show both respected and feared her, privately calling her "Lord Two-Tail" because she always exuded a sharp aura that made people afraid to look directly at her.

It's like a dangerous tabby cat.

However, even tigers can be tamed, let alone a wild cat.

The two Yugito walked beside Inuyasha, their cold expressions softening slightly. "Team leader, where do we go next?"

Inuyasha turned his head, glanced at her, and smiled.

"Eastern Outer Regions"

Yu Muren nodded slightly and did not ask any further questions.

She trusted Gintoki's decision.

Although the team leader in front of her usually seemed lazy, his powerful strength when facing evil spirits always gave her a great sense of security.

The teleportation array in the plaza glowed with a ghostly blue light after a Death God entered its coordinates.

"Let's go."

Inuyasha stepped into the formation, followed closely by Yugito, and the rest of the cast members filed in.

A beam of light rose from the array patterns, enveloping dozens of figures.

Space twists, stretches, and folds before my eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, they were already standing outside the Wheel of Reincarnation.

Eastern Outer Regions.

This is a temporary outpost established by Zhuanlunjing in all eight outer regions.

A few hundred meters behind them lay the territory of the Wheel of Reincarnation. In each of the eight directions of the eight outer domains, there were teams with one or two deputy captains stationed there for extended periods.

Vast expanses of gray-white wasteland stretch to the horizon, the ground cracked, scattered with pebbles, and occasionally a few twisted, dead trees peek out from the cracks.

The air was filled with a thin layer of spiritual energy and a faint smell of decay, and in the distance, dark mountain ridges undulated like crouching beasts.

The wind blew from the depths of the wasteland, stirring up fine dust that rustled against the Death Armor.

"It's Gintoki, so eager."

A figure flashed up from behind, it was Lisa Yadomaru.

A hundred years ago, he was the vice-captain of the 8th Division. He was framed by Aizen Sousuke and became a member of the Visoreds. Now he has returned to the 8th Division and been reinstated.

This group of masked soldiers and the captains who will be coming out of hell next year are in a rather awkward position, but the extraordinary world has its own solutions.

Inuyasha glanced at Yadomaru Lisa, took out a file from his pocket and tossed it to her, "This is the mission, we'll talk about it later."

"What a heartless man. I'm your superior, after all."

As Yadomaru Lisa watched Inuyasha leave with his men, a gossipy glint appeared in her eyes behind her pink-rimmed glasses—Ise Nanao was her dear little sister!

"Three hundred miles ahead lies a lair inhabited by evil spirits."

Inuyasha spoke, his voice slightly distorted by the wind, "According to the records of the Wheel of Reincarnation, the evil spirits there have devoured many souls, forming a considerable force. The Twelfth Division has given it a rating of—A."

The wooden figure's eyes sharpened.

"Rank A? Is there a Ghost King involved?"

"Hmm." Inuyasha's lips curled slightly. "Are you confident?"

Yukito met his gaze and laughed, "Just some mere grains of sand!"
