Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

But Gangmi Daishi Beach is different.

He was simply inflicting abuse on others at his own will and trying to spread this malice throughout the world.

Yoruichi nodded seriously and agreed:

"In that case, let's make finding Tsunayoshiro Tokinada's whereabouts our first-level mission."

"Letting a guy like that roam around is indeed quite dangerous."

"By the way, I've been practicing a new technique lately, and it's quite similar to what you showed during the assessment. If you have time, come to the Second Division and help me improve it."

Naraku Sora readily agreed.

……

……

In the present world, above a certain city.

The silence seemed to be the only keynote of the night, but this quiet atmosphere was suddenly broken. A shattering sound came from the sky, and countless cracks slowly appeared.

Darkness spread continuously through the cracks, and a man dressed in luxurious clothes with dark green hair slowly walked out and stepped into the sky.

A faint smile played on his lips as he surveyed the city before him, muttering to himself:

"Losing power also means losing shackles. This will be a long process, so let's begin from this revitalized place..."

A crescent moon hung high in the hazy clouds, appearing and disappearing intermittently...

Chapter 119 All the Pleasure Is Someone Else's

Sunshine, garden, fragrance, and the first Kenpachi's flower.

When Naraku completed his captain assessment, carrying the half-dead Kensei Muguruma, and accompanied by Yoruichi's sidekick Aya Hachisho, he arrived at the Fourth Division barracks, this was the scene he witnessed.

After throwing Kensei Muguruma into the intensive care unit, someone was dragged out by Retsu Unohana.

Looking at the gentle woman before him and the long sword in her hand, Naraku trembled with fear, his hands and feet turned icy cold, and tears were about to stream down his face.

What's wrong with this world?

What exactly do we prison guards have to do to satisfy you?

You bully a weak and frail person like me, who is also "seriously injured." Don't you have any conscience at all?

We agreed before we came that we were just going to escort them, so why are we fighting now?

After finally defeating Tsunayoshi, shouldn't we relax and unwind during this rare holiday?

When Naraku Sora showed Unohana Retsu the injuries he and Kensei Muguruma had sustained, he was trying to gain a little bit of sympathy.

All I got in return was a disdainful sneer.

"From a doctor's perspective, it would have healed if it had been any later."

Seeing that he couldn't fool her, Naraku had no choice but to put on a long face and wave to the bewildered Bee-Sho Aya.

“Sui, Sho, I heard from Yoruichi that you will be trying to inherit the name ‘Sui Fon’ in a while.”

"Perfect timing, I'll give you some extra lessons now. How much you learn depends on your talent."

"Watch carefully and learn well later."

Naraku Sora remembered that Yoruichi had a headache because of the maggot nest incident and wanted him to help teach Hakuda in the Second Division.

Before they even started teaching, the maggot nest was already gone.

The girl pursed her lips, a determined look flashing across her face, and nodded vigorously.

Initially, she had a very bad impression of Naraku Sora.

My initial impression of this guy was that he was the wild man who stole Yoruichi's man.

However, under Yoruichi's orders, Aya Hachiko was forced to join him on a mission.

However, everything she experienced at the Yokota family manor caused a subtle shift in her perception of Naraku Sora.

When she saw the creature named Lumina Griffith appear, Aya Bee was already prepared to die in the line of duty.

Although it's a pity that she'll never see Yoruichi again, it's her duty as a member of the Covert Mobile Force.

then.

To everyone's disbelief, a seemingly slender figure suddenly burst forth, forcefully blasting the Adjuchas apart and bringing it back to life.

Like a ray of dazzling sunlight, it pierced through the thick dark clouds and cast a warm glow.

Although I am reluctant to admit it, the life-saving grace is an established fact.

It is precisely because of this incident that Aya always has an inexplicable feeling when facing Naraku Sora.

During the captain's assessment just now, the girl was surprised to find that Naraku Sora seemed to have become stronger than when she was at Yokota Manor.

Simply outrageous.

It seems that all I can do is look up at that figure, just like I look up at Yoruichi.

Fortunately, this guy doesn't seem to change his attitude towards those around him because of the difference in their strength, unlike others.

It remains as "disliked" as ever.

Following behind Naraku, Aya arrived at a brand new dojo.

The floor and walls were covered with countless ghost paths, and a faint light emanated from them, making the entire dojo appear very bright and clear.

Bee-shaped Aya stood obediently at the edge, her eyes fixed on the two people in the center of the dojo.

The moment the sound of a sword being drawn rang out, the pure white figure suddenly moved.

Unohana Retsu lightly touched the ground with her toes, her clothes billowing freely as she clashed with metal, sparks flying everywhere.

Narakuku was completely focused, staring ahead as he drew his sword to meet the attack. As he stretched out his arm, a heavy force burst forth from it.

Feeling the power emanating from the blade, a hint of undisguised joy flashed in Retsu Unohana's eyes.

From the initial excitement of discovering the budding talent to its later emergence, he has made numerous achievements in the field of kendo.

Later, he even pioneered a new chapter in the fusion of swordsmanship and demonic arts.

Despite the extremely demanding learning conditions, it undoubtedly injected a fresh vitality into this age-old art of swordsmanship.

In Naraku Sora, Unohana Retsu saw infinite possibilities and a future.

Looking at the agile figure before her, Retsu Unohana's lips curled into a smile. Her slender, pale hand gripped the slightly curved Zanpakuto tightly, and her gentle voice rang out amidst the clash of metal:

"It has indeed improved compared to before."

"But compared to this kind of basic slashing technique competition, I'm more looking forward to the slashing technique you use in the captain's assessment."

Seemingly realizing that it might be his fault, when Unohana Retsu finished speaking, a chilling killing intent suddenly arose in her slightly upturned, gentle smile.

The temperature in the temple suddenly dropped.

Bee-Shō Aya, who was guarding the edge of the dojo, looked shocked and could hardly believe her eyes.

As a member of the covert mobile unit with an extremely high casualty rate, she had dealt with the Fourth Division just as many times as the Eleventh Division.

However, why did Captain Retsu Unohana, who is usually gentle and speaks softly, making people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze, suddenly become so terrifying?!

A massive, overwhelming sea of ​​blood crashed down, its chilling, bone-chilling cold spreading and expanding. An endless killing intent seeped into the body through the pores, reaching the very depths of the internal organs.

It's terrifying!

The girl instinctively crossed her arms, her slender back pressed against the wall, watching nervously as the two figures collided and separated.

Upon hearing Unohana Retsu's words, a look of realization appeared on Naraku Sora's face.

No wonder they were so impatient; it turns out they had their eye on that secret sword technique.

The First Secret Sword - Rhinoceros Strike, a move by a repeat student from the neighboring academy. Through perfect body control, it concentrates all the vectors of force into a single point, thereby unleashing an amazing and unparalleled ultimate strike.

Retsu Unohana, the first Kenpachi who boasted of mastering all schools of martial arts, once gave himself the name Yachiru.

This shows his fondness for swordsmanship.

Now that I've seen moves I've never heard of before, I can't contain my joy.

It seems I can understand her eagerness.

A high-pitched whistling sound suddenly burst forth.

There was no burst of sword pressure, no boost from spiritual pressure.

All that remains is pure, extreme control of the body, the manipulation of muscles and bones, producing a heavy sound like steel rubbing together.

Naraku stepped forward onto the solid floor, his Zanpakuto slightly raised, the tip pointing straight ahead, as if it were the most ordinary starting stance for an attack.

But the deafening roar burst forth in all directions with his movements, and invisible waves surged, distorting the surrounding atmosphere and eventually turning into a fierce storm.

As the storm subsided, it wrapped itself around the silver-white blade.

The hurricane was raging, shimmering with a faint light.

He stepped forward in an instant.

First Secret Sword Technique: Rhinoceros Strike!

As the blade drew nearer, Unohana Retsu's eyes flashed with barely concealed joy, and a blazing light burst forth from the blade in her hand.

That's right, that's exactly what she wanted to see!

Similarly, without using spiritual pressure, but simply a strike formed from countless swordsmanship experiences, it shone brilliantly on Unohana Retsu's blade.

Blades clashed, accompanied by a deafening roar.

Naked killing intent was being unleashed, blades flashed, and dazzling light burst forth from them.

Boom——

A cracking sound came from her slender wrist, and the concentrated power of a series of explosions shattered Unohana Retsu's defenses.

Blood splattered out, adorning the haori, and the snow-white skin was stained with mottled crimson spots.

At the same time, the sharp blade traveled along the gap in the rhinoceros's claws all the way to the chest, tearing flesh apart and instantly creating a hideous wound from which blood gushed out like a fountain.

In the blink of an eye, both sides suffered heavy losses.
