Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

This battle left Unohana Retsu with a scar on her chest. She later changed her name to Unohana Retsu and became the captain of the Fourth Division.

This child is none other than Kenpachi Zaraki, the future captain of the 11th Division in the original timeline, though he is currently still known as "Zaraki" and is wandering in Rukongai.

"One day, I will take it back with my own hands!" said Aozaki Mazuki.

As she uttered those words, Aozaki Mayuki slowly lowered her head, and at the same time, Unohana Retsu gently leaned her head closer.

The two grew closer and closer, close enough to feel each other's breath and heartbeat.

"Keep trying to please me, Aozaki Mayuki..."

Retsu Unohana's voice is dreamlike and beautiful, like heavenly music, but it also reveals a hint of heartbreaking sadness.

Her beautiful eyes were slightly closed, and her long eyelashes fluttered gently like butterfly wings.

"Our entanglement is not over yet, and it never will be..."

"Aozaki Mayuki murmured softly, his fingers gently stroking Unohana Retsu's poignant profile."

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world consisted of only the two of them.

They were immersed in each other's aura, and the battle would continue indefinitely, not stopping even if one of them fell completely.

Never-ending.

Chapter 213 Taboo

The morning sun slowly rose above the ground, casting its warm and soft golden light upon the earth.

Unohana Retsu, who was lying on the ground, also woke up in a daze.

"Hmm... what time is it?"

Exhausted and with a sore back, Retsu Unohana slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the clock on the wall with its hands moving, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

"It's already so late?"

Looking back on last night, Retsu Unohana felt it was an exceptionally long time. Her mind was a mess, and she didn't know when she woke up or when she lost her mind.

"It's even more tiring than fighting?" Unohana Retsu frowned, gritted her teeth, and then took a black shihaka outfit from the side and put it on.

As for the shihaka and white haori she wore earlier...

Looking at the torn clothes on the ground, Retsu Unohana still had a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

She has worn this outfit for many years, especially the haori, which she has never changed since she transferred to the Fourth Division.

The captain's haori is made of superior materials and is woven with exceptional skill, remaining undamaged for hundreds of years.

Unfortunately, she still couldn't escape that man's clutches.

The fighting had just ended, and her clothes were already tattered, but you could still make out the general style.

After being tormented by Aozaki Mayuki, it was eventually reduced to a pile of tattered cloth.

This child, Zhenyue...

Looking at Aozaki Mayuki lying on the ground, still fast asleep, Unohana Retsu's usually calm heart finally stirred, and a blush flashed across her stunningly beautiful face.

Zhenyue is really amazing...

He's completely different from what Saito and the others said about being immortal; he's not that kind of fragile man.

Moreover, they possess the ability to please themselves, and can use it to its fullest extent, truly allowing for endless battles.

Unfortunately, I wasn't strong enough. In such a pleasurable battle, I couldn't hold on any longer and had to rely on this child to accommodate me.

It's worth noting that in that battle hundreds of years ago, even though it involved such an opponent, the fight was quite enjoyable.

But that battle was too short, and the opponent was actively weakening their own strength, so the enjoyment was far less than this battle.

"It's all over."

Looking at the torn white haori on the ground, Unohana Retsu felt as if a burden had been lifted from her heart.

But between this child and that demonic man, who is truly superior?

This child is still too young and needs more training. We'll continue to help him improve in the future.

He himself had no hope. He had not made any progress for many years after reaching the first level of spiritual power. He had reached the end of the path of death. But this child could still continue to grow.

"Sigh... It's so late tonight, I might as well not go to the squad. I'll wait for him to get up and continue fighting, and take this opportunity to relive that feeling."

Unohana Retsu nodded.

…………

As Unohana Retsu felt her spiritual pressure slowly recovering, she walked out of the training ground and used Ten-Ting Kongo to notify Kotetsu Isane, who was the vice-captain.

After receiving a reply from Kotetsu Isane, Unohana Retsu started walking back.

As she walked, she felt quite annoyed.

No wonder they were in such a daze during their time in the underground training ground; it turns out they'd been there for almost a week!

And she was completely unaware!

You know, she has always been a perfect captain in Kotetsu Isane's eyes, so Kotetsu Isane was shocked that she did not return to the team for a week.

If it weren't for the fact that she had been taken away by Aozaki Mayuki and that the 11th Division lieutenant had also spoken to her, Kotetsu Isane would have reported it to the 1st Division.

However, when she returned to the underground training ground and saw the scene before her, she was immediately stunned.

"Matsuki, your spiritual pressure has increased again?"

Aozaki Mayuki, standing before them, was currently soaking in a hot spring, radiating a strong spiritual pressure.

When he first woke up, Aozaki Mayuki's spiritual pressure was contained within him, and Unohana Retsu had not yet noticed his abnormality.

Now that her spiritual pressure has been exposed, she realizes that the other person's spiritual pressure has increased again.

Unohana Retsu was in an exceptionally cheerful mood, but the thought that her future was coming to an end made her somewhat sad.

"Retsu, come quick! This hot spring is a real treat." Aozaki Mayuki waved to her, calling out her affectionate nickname without any restraint.

They no longer need to worry about these things.

Retsu Unohana glanced at Mayuki Aozaki in the water; he was smiling at her.

"Is there something on my face? Why are you smiling so happily? Or are you happy because you saw me?"

The extent of Mao's brilliance is unknown.

As if sensing Retsu Unohana's gaze, Mayuki Aozaki then focused his gaze on her eyes, which seemed to hold a hint of emotion that made one's heart race.

The ruthless demon remained calm, though his cheeks were slightly flushed.

She was certain... this young man had no good intentions.

However, they had no way to deal with it.

He wanted to become like this, because one look from him threw him into a daze...

She saw right through someone's little scheme.

"You silly child." Retsu Unohana sighed and stepped into the hot spring.

"You didn't cultivate your spiritual pressure like that, did you? I originally thought you were simply unable to resist women, but now it seems I misunderstood you."

"This is just one of my methods for cultivating spiritual pressure. In fact, this method is not as efficient as Blade Zen, but it has the advantage of lasting longer and making people feel happy and not bored when cultivating."

Aozaki Mayuki patted her chest and said confidently.

Unohana Retsu suddenly looked at him with a smile, "Then why don't I feel anything at all?"

"How is that possible?" Aozaki Mayuki exclaimed in surprise, and couldn't help but doubt herself.

"I'm talking about spiritual pressure!" Retsu Unohana said irritably, sitting down next to him and rolling her eyes at him.

When this demon isn't going crazy, every smile and frown is truly captivating! Aozaki Mayuki thought.

"Oh, it was spiritual pressure! Don't scare me!"

Aozaki Mayuki let out a long sigh of relief.

"That's how it is for Grim Reapers. For many Grim Reapers, let alone a First-Class Spirit Might, even a Seat Officer level is an insurmountable barrier."

“That makes sense.” Retsu Unohana nodded.

This world is unfair, it always has been.

For most people, their end point is already predetermined when they stand at the starting line.

Her millennia of experience taught her that talent is something that sometimes cannot be compensated for by hard work.

Most people can only be ordinary soldiers in their entire lives. It's not that they don't work hard enough, it's just that they are not naturally gifted, that's all.

It's cruel, but there's nothing we can do.

Aozaki Mayuki seemed to see through her thoughts, gently stroking her hair: "Are you willing to stop here?"

"What?" Unohana Retsu looked up at him, her eyes seemingly sparkling.

"I have a way to grant you a higher level of power."

"You mean blurring?"

"You actually knew that?" Aozaki Mayuki said with some surprise.

“In the millions of years of history of Soul Society, you don’t think no one has ever tried to come into contact with this forbidden power, do you?” Retsu Unohana shook her head. “However, related research has been explicitly prohibited by the nobles.”

"I don't care what the nobles think."

This statement is tantamount to an admission.

Instead of reprimanding him for violating the rules set by the Seireitei, Unohana Retsu laughed.

"Coincidentally, I seem to be the same."

Chapter 214 Good Days

It was a special day, the birthday of the 11th Division Captain, the 11th Kenpachi, Aozaki Mazuki.

Actually, birthdays don't really matter to Aozaki Mayuki. After all, even he often forgets his own birthday.
