Chapter 86

"Silver."

"Be prepared."

"The Three Worlds — it is time for a new beginning."

……

Soul Society.

Above the Seireitei.

For hundreds of thousands of years,

there has existed a different dimension.

The Wang Gong!

It is also the legendary dwelling place of the Soul King.

Guarded by the Royal Special Guard, the Zero Division!

Possessing the power to crush the entire Gotei Thirteen!

It is the supreme existence of Soul Society!

At this moment.

On a vast, broad plaza,

five figures had gathered.

A tall, burly, bald man with a fairly thick beard grinned broadly, looking at the four figures before him.

A lean-faced man with a pompadour whose ends curved into hooks.

A plump, purple-haired older woman.

A man with black curly hair, wearing sunglasses.

And an elegant woman with six skeletal arms…

Every one of those figures

looked utterly unremarkable,

yet within their bodies blazed like Xiong Xiong suns.

Filled with unimaginable, terrifying power!

Any one of them

had made history in Soul Society.

They were lofty, illustrious great figures of Soul Society!

The five

were all members of the Zero Division.

Ikomikidomu Ichibei, true name Monk, leader of the Zero Division, who names everything for the Soul Society!

Kirio Hikifune.

Senjumaru Shutara.

Eastern Divine General.

Creator of the healing hot springs.

……

Hikifune.

Shutara.

Southern Divine General.

Creator of the technology to modify souls and place them within bodies.

……

Nimaiya Wang Yue.

Sword God.

Western Divine General.

Creator of the Asauchi.

The origin of every Zanpakuto in Soul Society.

……

Shutara Senjumaru.

Oh-Etsu-Ni.

Northern Divine General.

Creator of the Shihakusho!

……

"The members are all present."

"The Soul King has already acknowledged that Kuchiki Senya has made history in Soul Society."

"He is qualified to join the Zero Division."

Ikomikidomu Ichibei's tone turned solemn as he spoke with gravity.

"After a hundred years, another newcomer is to join?" said Hikifune, the purple-haired woman who looked like a plump old lady, with a faint smile.

She herself had joined the Zero Division a hundred years ago.

"Two new members added to the Zero Division in a hundred years — Soul Society of late has truly been producing one talent after another."

Shutara Senjumaru at the side also nodded, a trace of satisfaction showing on her face.

"Then."

"What kind of history has this newcomer actually created?"

"I've heard that his Zanpakuto, Tenban Bankai, is even sharper than my Submerged!"

Nimaiya Wang Yue, meanwhile, wore a face full of curiosity, staring intently at the great monk leader before him.

Hyousube Ichibei, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"He has created the most genius history in Soul Society — unprecedented, and from now on, no one will surpass him!"

"Looking across all of history, he is the one with the greatest innate talent! Even more outstanding than the ancestors of the Five Great Noble Houses!"

· ··Begging for flowers·· ·

This.

Is still the only one.

The person who, by absolute superiority of talent, earned the qualification to join the Royal Guard.

The Spirit King Palace.

News was not closed off there.

Major events happening in Soul Society naturally could not be hidden from them.

In the past hundred years.

Kuchiki Senya had risen like a comet; although he often slacked off, every single battle record genuinely displayed his strength!

Especially this time.

He had defeated two captains with an absolutely crushing momentum!

His Tenban Bankai was even called the strongest sharpness-type Zanpakuto — the sharpest thing in all of Soul Society, and even in the Three Worlds, sharp enough to sever all phenomena!

Long before this.

Kuchiki Senya's performance had already drawn the Royal Guard's attention.

Today.

His potential, his talent, had finally received the Spirit King's recognition.

"Newcomers are truly terrifying." Yomo Urameshi, at the side, patted her chest, a trace of surprise surfacing in her eyes.

One must know.

Even within the Royal Guard, not everyone was adept at combat.

The true main combat force was Hyousube Ichibei and Nimaiya Wang Yue.

The other three.

Were all support-type abilities, their combat power far inferior.

And Kuchiki Senya.
