Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

Naraku Sora's behavior was so exaggerated that it didn't seem like that of a Grim Reaper.

Shinji Hirako, who was once a victim, subconsciously replayed the events in her mind.

If I put myself in Kensei Muguruma's position, could I perform even better?

For example, defeating the examiner and taking office in glory.

Soon, Hirako Shinji shook his head.

The conclusion is that it is impossible.

He had previously witnessed Naraku Sora's fighting prowess during the Zanpakuto's betrayal, and his Shikai, Reverse, was completely ineffective against him.

Without the Zanpakuto's abilities being effective, defeating a monstrous Shinigami would be an impossible task.

Even now, he still doesn't understand why Naraku Sora is immune to the ability to reverse the flow of energy.

Is it because the hypnotic effect is much less after the Zanpakuto betrayed them?

Or is this guy so unconventional that he can suppress his usual fighting habits?

Looking at that tall and straight figure, Hirako Shinji fell into deep thought.

Beside him, Aizen's gaze swept over his captain, seemingly unconcerned, before turning to Naraku Sora in the training ground, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes.

Judging from his appearance, his close friend is probably the type who achieves great things later in life.

Those who remain unassuming within the Spirit Arts Academy, once they join a team, are like dragons entering the sea, free from restraint, soaring to great heights.

How long did it take to advance from the twelfth level of spiritual power to the third level?

It seems like it hasn't even been half a year.

A look of disbelief appeared on Aizen's face.

He thought his spiritual talent was already unique in Soul Society, but he never expected that someone would be even more outrageous than him.

If things continue like this, it probably won't be long before he surpasses me.

Thinking of this, Aizen frowned, a strange sense of urgency growing and spreading in his heart.

Perhaps we've spent too much time on scientific research.

But upon closer reflection, it seems that the most outrageous thing about that guy wasn't even the third-level spiritual power.

Rather, it was a combat power completely mismatched with Lingwei.

If an ordinary third-rank Shinigami were constantly being beaten by Yamamoto, he would have already returned to the Soul Society.

On the other hand, this guy acted like nothing had happened.

There's also that perfectly intangible intangibility, comparable to Biachukas's super-fast regeneration, and even the unique Sora no Kyoukai...

The more Aizen thought about it, the heavier the sense of urgency became.

If one day Naraku Sora catches up with his spiritual power level, what a terrifying scene that would be.

The thought of someone possibly crushing me in a competition and then revealing their utterly despicable nature is unbearable.

Aizen felt extremely uncomfortable and couldn't even sit still.

"Captain, I suddenly remembered that I still have two official duties to attend to, so I'll head back first."

Having said that, without waiting for Hirako Shinji's response, Aizen got up and left the audience seats, heading towards the team barracks.

Hirako Shinji scratched his head:

"You're not even going to stay and comfort your good brother, and you're just leaving?"

"Could it be that the ship of friendship has capsized?"

Although for some unknown reason, he did not have a good impression of Aizen at first, and kept promoting him to a higher position in order to better supervise him.

However, after the Zanpakuto's betrayal, Aizen's behavior didn't seem like he had any ulterior motives.

after all.

How bad could someone be who can hang out with Naraku Sora?

Hirako Shinji shook his head and refocused his attention on the training ground.

After Naraku announced that the test was passed, Unohana Retsu, who had been preparing for a long time, immediately rushed into the training ground with Shunpo and used the Return Path to stabilize Mutsuruma Kensei's condition.

During the examination, she suddenly realized that Kensei Muguruma's injuries only looked horrifying; they weren't actually that serious.

What's most interesting is that the ruptured wound has extremely smooth cuts, without any excess force spilling out, and even the break is smooth.

Absolutely perfect.

Unohana Retsu's calm breathing became somewhat disordered, and she subconsciously looked up at Naraku Sora, who was walking towards her.

A hint of undisguised fanaticism surfaced in his dark eyes.

His swordsmanship seems to have improved greatly again?

This child is really...

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The violent coughing pulled Retsu Unohana back to reality. She had almost forgotten about the wounded soldier. Lowering her gaze, she calmed her turbulent emotions, and then—

Subconsciously, the output intensity of the return path was increased.

Intense pain surged through his nerves, causing Kensei Muguruma, who had just regained consciousness, to black out again and lose consciousness.

Nai Luokong: "..."

He seems to have come at the wrong time.

"Kong, could you please take the sixth vehicle team leader to the general ambulance station?"

Unohana Retsu smiled gently, like the warmest sunshine in spring.

However, Naraku Sora, who knew her very well, felt a chill inexplicably rise in his spine when he saw that smile.

It's as if something very unfortunate is about to happen.

But if you refuse, this misfortune will instantly increase tenfold or more.

There was no other way but to bite the bullet and follow the other members of the Fourth Division.

Kensei Muguruma, whose face was contorted in pain, was taken to the Fourth Division barracks.

But what he couldn't understand was why Kensei Muguruma had such poor endurance.

He clearly held back in his final strike.

On the way, Yoruichi suddenly appeared out of nowhere and mingled into the group.

Naraku Sora was somewhat surprised to see the girl standing beside him.

Unlike her usual sleek bodysuit, Yoruichi now wore a captain's haori, with the clan crest symbolizing her Shihouin identity embroidered on the hem of the white garment.

A pristine white belt cinched the shihata suit, accentuating its slender waist.

Beneath the haori, the sleeveless shihaka reveals healthy, tanned skin.

Despite her young age, she already possesses an enviable figure that surpasses that of her peers.

"Hmph, although I don't really like this outfit."

Seeing Naraku Sora's expression, Yoruichi revealed a mocking smile.

"But it's still very useful for someone."

Naraku grinned, seemingly unconcerned, and asked, "What do you want?"

"Of course, it's to express my gratitude."

Yoruichi's smile became much more sincere. "If it weren't for you, the Tsunayoshiro family wouldn't have been destroyed, and the Shihouin family would have had a hard time recovering in such a short time."

"Of course."

"To express their gratitude, the elders asked me to ask you when we will finalize our marriage agreement?"

"?"

Seeing Naraku Sora's suddenly wide eyes, Yoruichi's lips curled up:

"You bastard, are you trying to break the contract?"

"The application has been submitted to the Golden Seal Noble Council. Violating this rule would be a serious crime of deceiving nobles."

Naraku Sora remained silent for a moment, then decisively changed the subject:

"We'll discuss this later."

“I suddenly remembered something very important, which is related to Tsunayoshi.”

Upon hearing the name Tsunayoshiro, Yoruichi's attention was immediately diverted.

"Before we besieged Tsunayoshiro, the last member of the Tsunayoshiro branch, Tsunayoshiro Tokinada, probably guessed something and left Seireitei ahead of time."

"In Utako's words, that guy is the epitome of pure evil, a more terrifying existence than Tsuna and Taketori."

"She originally planned to gradually influence and reform the other party with her own personality, but before she could put it into practice, the Tsunayo family suddenly suffered a major change."

"If possible, it would be best to have the covert operations team find out his whereabouts as soon as possible."

Yoruichi seemed lost in thought:

"Tsunayoshi Tokinada, huh? I seem to remember him."

"A file I saw before mentioned that he seemed to be in the same class of students as the captain of the Kyoraku band and the captain of Ukitake, and all of them had been taught by Captain-Commander Yamamoto."

"Speaking of which, he's kind of your senior brother by choice."

Upon hearing this, Naraku Sora revealed undisguised disgust:

"Old Man Shan probably regrets teaching someone who finds pleasure in tormenting others."

Despite the mild wording, one can still discern Tsunayoshi Tokina's character from Utako's description.

It is no exaggeration to describe it as pure evil.

Other villains all have their reasons for doing big things.

Perhaps it's to break down old ideas and rebuild a new order; or perhaps it's because of past painful experiences and a desire for revenge.
