Bleach: After Retiring From Zero Division, Aizen Came To Study

Chapter 2: Returning to Seireitei



Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, whose original name was Yamamoto Shigekuni.

He is also an extremely old Shinigami, although not as old as Ichibei Hyōsube, but in the era when Soul Society was still in chaos, he rose from the common people and became a hero in the true sense.

In the early days of Soul Society, Shinigami had not yet become a formal organization. To become Shinigami, it was purely based on talent, which can be said to be chaotic.

It was an era of the weak and the strong.

Yamamoto Shigekuni became a strong man in that era because his fists were hard enough and his swords were sharp enough.

Later, he founded the "Genryu" school and became famous as the founder of the "Genryu" Soul Society. He also served as the chief instructor of the "Genji Private School", an academy established by the five nobles at that time.

During his time at the "Genji School", he took on many apprentices and taught many powerful Shinigami.

Among them, the most talked about is his follower Chōjirō Sasakibe.

For the sake of Chōjirō Sasakibe, he even changed his name and added the three characters "Genryusai" to his name, gradually becoming the Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni that everyone knows today.

In the beginning, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni could only be regarded as a thug under the command of the five nobles. He commanded the killer group and constantly destroyed the existence of the order of Soul Society.

That was until Yhwach, the founder of the Quincy, invaded Soul Society.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni stepped forward.

Many strong men flocked to his command, and members of Team Zero brought the Spirit King's will.

In order to protect Soul Society, the previous loose order is no longer advisable, and a more powerful organization must be established.

Ever since, after Yhwach was defeated.

This is how Gotei 13 was established.

Many nobles even built a continuous city wall in the central area of ​​Soul Society, enclosing the central area. This is Seireitei, and Gotei 13 settled in Seireitei.

Shinigami is completely isolated from ordinary souls.

The aristocratic forces were even reorganized into Central 46 as the judicial body of Soul Society.

As for Gotei 13, as an organization under Central 46, each team performs its own duties and strives to maintain the order of the entire world and maintain the balance between souls.

I don't know if this system is good or bad.

After all, judicial power has always been in the hands of the nobles.

But Arima has long been used to it after so many years.

Not to mention, he is now retired.

No matter how much darkness Soul Society hides, it doesn't have much to do with him.

Perhaps it was because it had been many years since he left Seireitei. When Arima wanted to step into Seireitei, a little accident happened.

That is, he was intercepted.

There are four doors in Seireitei, and each door is guarded by Rukongai heroes. These heroes can be said to be the closest existence to Shinigami.

If you can defeat them, it means that you have the power of Shinigami, and you are allowed to step into Seireitei.

This was also the only way civilians were allowed to enter Seireitei after it was established.

After all, Seireitei was established by nobles to separate Shinigami and ordinary souls.

If you want to step into this area, you have to become a Shinigami.

Becoming a Shinigami is also the only way for commoners to improve their class.

But in recent years, there seems to be a new way.

That is to apply for the Spiritual Arts Academy, pass the academy's test, and then enter the Spiritual Arts Academy located in Seireitei for systematic learning of Shinigami.

Although there is a new way.

But the way to defeat the gatekeepers and gain entry to Seireitei remains.

Because Arima returned from the Zero Division, he did not wear the Death Overlord uniform. Haori, the captain who originally belonged to the Zero Division, was also left in the Zero Division after he left. He left with his original Zero Division. The palace was generally sealed.

Having said that, when the Spirit King's power was deprived of his power, the connection between him and the Zero Ban Lidian no longer existed.

(T/N: Sorry, know what it is. That's how I translated it. Comment if you know please)

Now his Zero Ban Lidian became an ownerless thing, and he didn't know who would be promoted to the Zero Squadron in the future.

Inherit his Reiban Riden and reshape that Reiban Riden.

Defeating the gatekeeper is extremely easy for Arima.

Just by raising his hand, the hero guarding the North Gate was defeated.

Then, he stepped into the Seireitei amidst the shocked eyes of many civilians who came after hearing the news and saw this scene.

Although Seireitei is not as big as Rukongai, it is not small either.

It contains hospitals, schools, aristocratic living areas, commercial streets, courts, execution sites, and the location of Gotei 13.

The place where the first team is located is the highest place among Gotei 13.

Not just because the First Team has the highest status among the Gotei 13.

It's because below the first team is the prison in Soul Society, the underground prison.

The bottom floor of the underground prison, "Mugen", houses the most terrifying criminals in the history of Soul Society.

Each of these criminals is extremely powerful, and the crimes they commit are even more intolerable to Soul Society.

If it were a normal world.

Put them to death and it will be over.

But this is the world of souls.

When humans die, they either fall into Soul Society or Hueco Mundo.

After the death of the powerful soul, that is, the Shinigami, the weak one will become a spirit child and return to the world itself.

As for the powerful, because their spiritual power is too powerful, it will not dissipate.

In this case, soul burial must be carried out to lead their souls into hell.

Otherwise, powerful spiritual power will continue to linger in Soul Society, causing turmoil.

But hell is not a trash can, and the carrying capacity of hell is also limited.

If hell holds too many powerful souls, the balance of souls will also be disrupted.

Therefore, for the sake of balance, these people who have committed the most heinous crimes can only be imprisoned forever, leaving them in a state of immortality.

Arima went straight to the place where the first team was.

He was not wearing a Death Assault uniform, but a white shirt. This outfit, after entering the first team, looked particularly conspicuous in contrast to the surrounding Shinigami who were wearing black Death Assault outfits.

"Hey, what do you do?"

"The front is the team building of our first team. It is not a place that can be entered casually."

Even within Seireitei, the area where Shinigami is located is not accessible to ordinary people.

Not all those living among the Seireitei are Shinigami.

There are also many civilians, some of whom serve the nobles, and some of whom are descendants of nobles and declining nobles. After so many years, Seireitei has naturally changed a lot.

The original intention of those who originally established Seireitei was good.

They established Seireitei to distinguish Shinigami from civilians.

However, even they neglected one thing, that is, the nobility will decline, and the descendants of Shinigami are not necessarily all Shinigami.

A conscientious Shinigami came to Arima and warned Arima.

Arima looked gentle, "I'm here to meet Captain Yamamoto."

"Captain?"

When the Shinigami heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he was about to say something to the other party,

'Are you kidding me? The captain can see him whenever he wants? '

At this time, Arima noticed a figure not far away and immediately said hello, "Sasakibe, long time no see."

Upon hearing this, the Shinigami immediately closed his mouth. He also looked in the direction where Arima was looking.

A man with a mustache and meticulously styled hair walked over slowly.

"Vice captain!"

Shinigami called Chōjirō Sasakibe.

Chōjirō Sasakibe ignored him, because after hearing Arima's voice, his attention had already fallen on Arima.

Chōjirō Sasakibe was shocked after seeing Arima again after so many years.

Not waiting for him to say anything.

Arima said to him again: "Can you take me to meet Yamamoto?"

Chōjirō Sasakibe came to his senses and nodded quickly.

Then, under the horrified look of Shinigami, who had previously blocked Arima, the vice-captain of their team led the mysterious man towards the team leader's room where the captain was located.

First team, the front room is very big.

Outside it, there is a spacious open-air courtyard.

Standing in the courtyard, because of the height of the first team, one can overlook the scenery of most of Seireitei.

In the team's head room, in front of a desk.

Captain Yamamoto is sitting cross-legged, holding a brush in his hand, and is handling some important team affairs.

The duty of the First Team is to handle and summarize some important events that cannot be handled by the entire Gotei 13, and to coordinate the operation of the entire Gotei 13.

Therefore, under the command of Captain Yamamoto, there are many clerks working.

And when these people are undecided about something, they will forward it to the captain, who will make a decision.

Captain Yamamoto is not only powerful in external affairs, but also has good internal affairs abilities.

"Captain!"

Chōjirō Sasakibe's deep voice sounded in Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's ears.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni has not yet asked him why he is here.

Another familiar voice sounded again, "Yamamoto, it's not easy to meet you."

The brush in Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's hand paused. He looked up and saw a familiar face. He raised his eyebrows and asked the visitor: "Team Zero came to Seireitei. What's the matter?"

Arima said softly: "What if I told you that I have left the Zero Division?"

"Um?"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's body suddenly released a powerful energy, which was the powerful Reiatsu hidden in his body, and was released involuntarily along with his emotional fluctuations.

Chōjirō Sasakibe sensed this Reiatsu, and his expression immediately changed.

Then, another wave of Reiatsu that was not weak at all was released, blocking Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's Reiatsu.

The owner of another Reiatsu is none other than Kishou Arima.
