Chapter 54

Originally, aside from the Head Captain, half of the twelve captain seats were vacant!

Now.

The six remaining captains.

Were all sizing up Kuchiki Senya, their expressions varied.

Kuchiki Bai Zai kept a straight face, looking at the drunken Senya and the gazes of the others, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

Unohana Retsu smiled faintly, Kyoraku Shunsui wore a dead-fish expression, and Kenpachi Zaraki, the corner of his mouth split open, brimming with fighting spirit!.

047. Choose, Kuchiki Senya!

"Choose."

Above.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni gave a light cough, staring fixedly at the sloppily-postured Kuchiki Senya below.

Hearing these words.

The other captains' expressions turned solemn.

One must know.

Kuchiki Senya's treatment was something no one else could compare to; he could freely choose his division.

This represented.

The other captains also faced the risk of being demoted.

If Kuchiki Senya chose their division, they could only be demoted to lieutenant.

Or transferred laterally to another division……

Being Kuchiki Senya's lieutenant?

Thinking of this.

Everyone's hearts tightened.

Setting other things aside for now.

Kuchiki Senya's laziness was famous throughout the Soul Society, which meant not only the lieutenant's work, but even the captain's work.

They would all have to help Kuchiki Senya complete it!

This was simply more unbearable than death!

Please, please don't choose our own division!

The various captains all secretly prayed in their hearts.

Under everyone's gaze.

Kuchiki Senya merely yawned.

A sidelong glance at the rough-featured man among the captains.

Shiba Isshin.

Captain of the Tenth Division.

Head of the Shiba family's branch house.

Later, in order to save the dying Kurosaki Masaki, he voluntarily gave up the power of a captain-level Shinigami.

Became an ordinary person, married Kurosaki Masaki in the Living World, had children, and opened a small clinic.

And.

Changed his name to Kurosaki Isshin!

Had three children: Kurosaki Ichigo, Kurosaki Yuzu, and Kurosaki Karin!

And Kurosaki Ichigo.

Was the protagonist of the original story decades later!

However.

He hadn't married and had children yet now.

Unlike the greasy uncle image from the original story.

At this time, Isshin's cheeks were lean, he hadn't yet grown a beard, and could be considered a man with a ruggedly handsome face.

Sensing Kuchiki Senya's gaze, Shiba Isshin's back went cold, and he quickly put on an innocent, harmless smile.

Afraid of being noticed by him.

Kuchiki Senya withdrew his gaze.

Surveying the vacant seats.

The Gotei 13.

Each division had different duties.

First Division, the Head Division, the strongest combat force.

Second Division, the Stealth Force, responsible for assassination and intelligence.

Third Division, the Support Division, providing support when other divisions were short-handed.

Fourth Division, the Medical Relief Division.

Fifth Division, the Rescue Division, responsible for the rescue of Shinigami in the Living World……

……

Kuchiki Senya took a swig of alcohol.

Several divisions.

Each had its pros and cons.

However.

He himself didn't need to consider these things — he just had to hand everything off to his vice-captain.

Be a hands-off boss and enjoy life.

Therefore.

To achieve all of this.

He needed a capable vice-captain.

And powerful intelligence-gathering ability — after all, knowing where the fun is required intel.

Even though he himself was the heir of the Kuchiki clan.

It was impossible for him to know every last detail about the entire Soul Society and the World of the Living.

And the Second Division.

Was responsible for intelligence collection and assassination in Soul Society, and its own combat strength also ranked among the top of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads.

Moreover.

In the original work, the captain of the Second Division, Suì-Fēng, was extremely capable.

Unlike Rangiku, who only knew how to slack off and handed all the paperwork off to Hitsugaya Toushirou, Suì-Fēng could perfectly handle everything.

And.

Suì-Fēng's own strength.

Her Hakuda and Shunpo levels were right up there with Yoruichi's, and she possessed the Rule-type Zanpakutou Suzumebachi.

A full tier stronger than combat-power measuring sticks like Love Aikawa!

In the future, if a situation came up, she could handle it herself — he wouldn't need to step in.

One could say.

She was the best candidate for vice-captain!

"Second Division."

Kuchiki Senya said softly.

Above.

Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni gave a slight nod and took Kuchiki Senya's token.

Carved a large character "二" (Two) on it.

This was the captain's token of the Second Division, representing the supreme authority to command the Second Division!

The other captains also breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching Kuchiki Senya turn and leave, heading for the Second Division's garrison.

In their hearts, they silently lit a stick of incense for Suì-Fēng.

"That hardworking Miss is in for a world of trouble from now on."
