Chapter 4, Zanpakutō: Shinsōkan

Treating a captain-level Soul Reaper's injuries is not an opportunity that comes by often

Particularly in the context of the Soul Society, where large-scale wars have not occurred for several hundred years, instances of captain-level Shinigami being injured have become increasingly rare

Then ... ...

Immediately, as soon as Senju Sincerity's thought stirred, a small sapling at his feet suddenly elongated rapidly like a vine, approaching the wound on Kenpachi Zaraki's abdomen

Suddenly, the scarred face of Kenpachi Zaraki slightly moved, and his gaze towards Senju Satoru had completely changed, subtly radiating a glimmer of light.

At this thought, Senju couldn't help but glance over at Yamada Kiyonosuke, the vice-captain of the Fourth Division, who was standing in a corner of the venue

Suddenly, the form of the Zanpakutō in Chihand's hands underwent a slight change. In addition to the lengthening of the blade and hilt, which made it more advantageous for slashing, small green saplings suddenly sprouted from the floor, centered around Chihand.

Before the graduation ceremony began, Senju Makoto communicated with Yamada Kantarou and Yamada Kiyonosuke, expressing his desire to join the 4th Division, and Yamada Kiyonosuke had already approved Senju Makoto's application to join the team

In the face of the forceful actions of the Eight Swords of the Tree, a true graduate of the Central Spirit Arts Academy like Senju Makoto can only enjoy and submit; any form of resistance would merely appear laughable

Although the main theme in the selection of teams emphasizes a mutual pursuit, it also depends on who the other party is

This opportunity is simply too rare

Otherwise, merely relying on the "Seeds of the Forest" that are spread across the bodies of more than half of the students at the Central Spiritual Arts Academy has gradually become insufficient to meet Senju Makoto's needs

Puff!

Although the performance in the return path at the Central Spirit Academy is quite excellent, it is still far from sufficient compared to offending the captain of the Eleventh Division

Wide-range treatment

At this moment, Yamada Kiyoshi seemed oblivious to the gaze of Senju Makoto, appearing as an outsider, completely indifferent to the fact that the scheduled team member had been forcibly taken by Kenpachi Zaraki.

Qianshou Cheng's thoughts turned rapidly, realizing the current situation; relying solely on himself, he completely lacked the sufficient status to refuse Genmu Kenpachi.

As for pretending that the treatment effect is mediocre, both Yijiao and Gongqin have experienced it countless times and will definitely be exposed in an instant

Indeed, even a captain-level Soul Reaper did not notice the planting of the "Seed of the Forest"

However, Yamamoto Genryūsai's expression was as if nothing had happened, casually drawing his Zanpakutō from his body, allowing a large amount of blood to flow out, his head slightly tilted as he commanded

If the description of Ayasegawa Yuki is accurate, and if Senju Masaru's healing abilities are sufficient, then the Eleventh Division, as long as they are equipped with "Senju Masaru," would almost be able to indulge in the pleasures of battle and slaughter at will

After all, a single spiritual particle is exceedingly small, much smaller than the cells that constitute the righteous body. Without specialized instruments, it is fundamentally impossible to visually discern the changes in each spiritual particle.

In the next moment, at the tip of the sapling that was in contact with the wound of Zaraki Kenpachi, a special spirit particle, slightly larger than an ordinary spirit particle, silently entered Zaraki Kenpachi's body. As Zaraki Kenpachi's wound healed, that special spirit particle completely merged with him.

At this thought, Qianshou Cheng slowly drew the Zanpakuto from his waist and began to chant the release incantation

Is it value

In an instant, the corners of Qianshou Cheng's mouth twitched.

At this moment, almost the entire venue's attention was drawn in, with the majority of gazes, filled with envy and jealousy, directed towards Qianshou Cheng.

Succeeded

Kyouraku Shunsui licked his lips, his beast-like gaze fixed on Shouyou, commanding, "Little ghost, unleash your zanpakuto"

Despite Senju's confidence of over 90% that he would not be discovered, the risks still exist. If Kenpachi Zaraki were to notice, it is even possible that he could be sentenced to severe punishment by the Soul Society.

I have indeed caught the attention of Kenpachi Zaraki!

It seems that my past performance has not demonstrated sufficient value, so Kiyonosuke Yamada has no intention of making an appearance at all

Gaining the attention and favor of the squad captain is a coveted achievement for an ordinary graduate, often signifying the captain's regard and the status and power one will hold after joining the squad

Captain Genmu, the rules of the large venue do not allow the arbitrary release of the Zanpakutō

However, what is a good thing for ordinary graduates is, in the eyes of Qianshou Cheng, an anomaly and a misfortune for books

Amidst the astonished gazes of everyone, Kenpachi Zaraki did not direct his Zanpakuto at Chōsō Makoto, but instead plunged it directly into his own body, a large amount of blood spilling onto the floor

It is precisely because Kenpachi Zaraki's brain is largely composed of muscle that he understands even more what this ability means for the Eleventh Division

This no longer counts as unreasonable...

vitality continues endlessly

Once rejected, I fear that in the next moment, Muke Juba will not hesitate to strike at Senju Makoto with his sword

Originally, Senju Makoto's plan was to gradually blend into the Fourth Division over several decades or even a century, slowly making contact with captain-level Soul Reapers, and then look for an opportunity to plant the "Seeds of the Forest." Unexpectedly, Zaraki Kenpachi actually took the initiative to have him heal his wounds in order to test his own abilities.

"Draw your sword and treat me, otherwise I will chop you into pieces and make you heal yourself"

In the next moment, delicate saplings resembling vines blossomed with flowers, absorbing the spiritual essence from the air. The tops of the saplings, which made contact with the wound on Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni's abdomen, began to emanate a gentle green hue

At the moment when Kenpachi Zaraki was plunged into shock, a fleeting moment of unease and hesitation flashed in the slightly lowered eyes of Senju Muramasa, which quickly transformed into decisiveness

Suddenly, Kenpachi Zaraki's expression changed as he felt a warm sensation in his abdomen. The wound was astonishingly healing rapidly, and even a portion of his depleted spiritual energy was being replenished.

This battle beast is truly fierce

Fighting alongside my teammates...! ... It seems I can loosen up a bit now!

The simplest way to rid oneself of the burdens placed by the wooden sword is seemingly to further attract the attention of the Fourth Division, demonstrating one's value in joining the Fourth Division

In this situation, there is fundamentally no room for Senju Makoto to refuse.

This is a seemingly cold and desolate male grim reaper, who is also the elder brother of Yamada Kantarou, a junior of Senju Seiichi.

As the wound was completely healed, a hint of a smile appeared on Senju Makoto's face

In this scene, no one noticed, not even Kenpachi Zaraki himself felt the slightest hint of abnormality

Endless vitality, a myriad of phenomena

The scar on Kenpachi Zaraki's face twitched subtly, revealing a smile reminiscent of a beast, as he slowly raised his zanpakuto, which was adorned with numerous irregular serrations.
