In Soul Society, love and bond begin

Fujimiya Makoto looked back in confusion.

Hikifune Kiryu extended a finger and tapped the wall clock: "Today's higher-ups' meeting should be at nine o'clock, right?"

"Don't we have to go to more than ten seats?"

He looked at the wall clock, and saw that the hour hand was gradually approaching 'eleven'.

Five minutes to go.

Fujimiya Makoto's big eyes suddenly widened.

"It's over!"

Without having time to finish his meal, Fujimiya Makoto hurriedly grabbed the Shiba costume hanging on the chair, put it on in a panic, and ran out for his life.

The porcelain bowl spun around on the table twice before finally stopping.

There was no trace of Fujimiya Makoto in the room.

"Ah~"

Little Tongsheng put his hands on his hips, looked in the direction of the gate, and sighed like a little adult.

"Brother Cheng is really something."

“It’s totally unsettling!”

......

Fujimiya Makoto's pace was very fast. He changed his clothes in a flash and in a short while, he ran to the door of the first team's barracks like flying.

There are exactly two minutes left before the higher-level meeting begins.

The number of familiar figures around gradually increased.

However, after the people in front noticed his spiritual pressure, they were stunned for a moment, and then stood still with an expression of respect, making way for him.

The road is smooth and unobstructed all the way.

"Fujimiya-kun."

"Fujimiya-sama!"

Not only that, the senior officials around him also nodded to him in a respectful tone.

Fujimiya Makoto looked at the senior officials who made way for him. He was a little surprised at first, but he quickly calmed down and walked forward calmly.

However, deep down in someone's heart, he was madly curling his lips.

"It seems... this is the result of having your abilities and achievements recognized!"

"This is strength!"

Fujimiya Makoto subconsciously raised his chin and held his head high.

No matter how the world slanders me, it can never erase his achievements on the battlefield.

Not to mention, this time he killed a powerful Quincy who caused the death of the captain, a powerful Nirvana level warrior.

Presumably, even these short-sighted people can finally understand how powerful he is, right?

Thinking of this, Fujimiya Makoto felt a breath of foul air coming out of his heart.

Having been defiled by the little broken knife countless times, he finally had a day to be proud of himself!

Not just on the road.

Even after entering the open-air venue that accommodated all senior officials, many people around noticed his figure, all of them with awe and respect.

Although Fujimiya Makoto is nominally the fifth seat in the Eighth Division, everyone actually knows his situation and has reserved a seat for him in the front row.

Some people a little further away also began to discuss his heroic deeds in whispers.

"The one just now is the rumored... adult?"

"You look really young."

“She’s also very good-looking!”

"You are still Unohana-sama's disciple."

"I never thought that someone so young could actually accomplish such a great feat—truly, the young are truly formidable!"

Although their voices were very low, for a strong man like Fujimiya Makoto who had already firmly reached the second level of spiritual power, it was no different from them speaking in his ear.

However, he still pretended that he heard nothing and stood quietly in front.

Only his ears stood up secretly.

One of the middle-aged officers looked in his direction and sighed with emotion, "Who would have thought that such an outstanding young man would actually shout in front of the Quincy leader that he would rape all the female Quincies?"

“It’s truly astonishing.”

“—Hmph.”

Fujimiya Makoto almost suffocated and his face turned red.

"Eh? That's not right."

The female officer next to him murmured softly.

Fujimiya Makoto suddenly felt relieved. It seemed that someone still knew his true identity.

"I heard from others that that gentleman swung O-○○ like a spinning fan in front of Captain Shikatori and Master Shutara."

The female official lowered her voice with a solemn oath, "And, we almost had Lord Shikatori executed on the spot."

Fujimiya Makoto was trembling all over, his eyes were bloodshot, and he tried his best to restrain himself from looking back at them.

Who made up this little imperial rumor?!

"impossible?"

The young man at the back said with a hint of disbelief, "That's Captain Shikatori... Have you never seen Lord Shikatori in action?"

Fujimiya Makoto finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that there are still some people who understand things.

Rumors will eventually stop at the wise.

The young man corrected him rather dissatisfiedly, "Captain Saito and Captain Kadori were both deceived by that fellow, and now they're fighting in Master Shutara's basement over the ownership of Master Fujimiya... You didn't see that half the development bureau's land was blown away!"

"Master Fujimiya was there at the time. They stripped him naked, and there was no way to stop them!"

As he spoke, he shook his head with emotion.

"Eh——So he's a scumbag!?"

"That's really wrong. Both captains are obviously beautiful..."

Several officials around criticized and envied him.

Fujimiya Makoto finally couldn't bear it anymore and turned back angrily.

Turning around, I saw Kuryashiki Ryoma huddled in the crowd, whispering something.

When she noticed he was looking at her, she stopped talking immediately and stood where she was, looking at her nose with her eyes and her heart with her nose.

Pretend to know nothing.

So it's you, kid?!

Fujimiya Makoto's Revenge Notebook +1.JPG

However, before he could go over with a grin to seek revenge, he heard the surrounding meeting room suddenly become quiet.

"Boom."

A familiar muffled sound came from the front desk.

Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni led a group of captains to the front.

After everyone quieted down, Quebu began to speak on behalf of the old man Shan.

The content of this higher-level meeting was not complicated. It was mainly to commend the meritorious officers of the Gotei 13 and to carry out a series of processes such as rewards, promotions, and related honors.

Under normal circumstances, there should be no surprises.

However, generally speaking, in situations where there are no unexpected events, an accident is likely to happen.

"Squad 8, Fujimiya 5th seat."

Just as Fujimiya Makoto was standing in the front row, drowsy.

Then I heard the dull and hoarse voice of the old man from the mountain front desk.

Fujimiya Makoto was stunned at first, then immediately raised his head.

Yamamoto stood still, his voice indifferent: "You probably haven't forgotten the military order issued three days ago."

Although it was a question, the words came out of the middle-aged man's mouth in a calm statement tone.

"Yes."

As a result, Fujimiya Makoto's expression gradually became serious.

However, he still didn't quite understand it in his heart.

With Old Man Shan's keen eyesight, he must have seen through the extent of his own strength growth three days ago.

Today, why bother?

Unfortunately, the old man in the mountain has never been the type to talk too much with others before taking action.

He simply walked slowly towards the front desk, casually poked his sword into the ground, and slowly took off the upper half of his Shinigami uniform.

His strong and muscular body and the scars covering his body were all exposed to everyone's sight.

The officials around were all stunned.

Quebu had already taken a step forward and ordered, "All irrelevant people, disperse!"

Almost at the moment the voice fell, the officials in the open-air venue suddenly dispersed and stopped hundreds of meters away.

Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni stood there shirtless, his voice as flat as water and his face expressionless.

When he opened his mouth, his voice spread far and wide, reaching the ears of all the high-ranking officials around him, which made Fujimiya Makoto startled.

"Three days ago, Fujimiya Go-sama requested the order at the meeting of all captains."

"I request that you go alone to stop Yhwach, the evil leader of the Quincy, in the next war."

The moment Yamamoto finished speaking, the senior officials present were all in an uproar.

He took a step forward and slowly walked towards Fujimiya Makoto.

He pulled out the shallow hammer section by section, and the sound continued:

"In order to gain this opportunity, the five Fujimiyas issued a military order three days ago."

"If you can take three of my sword strikes head-on in front of everyone, you can go and carry out the mission."

The moment he finished speaking, Yamamoto had already drawn his sword, pointed the tip of the sword in the direction of Fujimiya Makoto, and asked in a cold voice:

“—yes and no?”

At this time, Fujimiya Makoto had already reacted.

Although the agreement was completely inconsistent with the content of the previous military order, he still calmly agreed:

"exactly."

After agreeing, Fujimiya Makoto raised his head, drew out the sword in his hand, and looked in the direction of the old man on the mountain.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see it clearly.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni personally took on the role of the "Trialist" this time, both to establish a reputation for Fujimiya Makoto and to establish his own authority.

Three cuts, seemingly easy.

But a guy like Yamamoto, when has he ever held back?

If it is said that before, Fujimiya Makoto's identity as the "next captain candidate" was only circulated among a few captains.

Then, from today onwards, this news will probably spread throughout the entire Gotei 13.
