Tōshirō Joins the Tenth Division

After Tōshirō's graduation exam, everyone was speculating which squad this genius would join. Almost everyone said that Tōshirō would definitely join the Second Division, but the fact was beyond everyone's expectations. Tōshirō joined the Tenth Division, which is the squad with Isshin as its captain, which surprised everyone.

Regarding the choice of which squad to join, Ye Yang only allowed Tōshirō to decide for himself. No matter which squad he joined, he couldn't join the Second Division. If Tōshirō continued to stay in the Second Division, wouldn't he be living the same life as before? What Tōshirō lacks now is not training, but actual combat and experience! Staying in the Second Division would not be conducive to his growth.

However, Tōshirō's fighting style doesn't quite fit the fighting style of the Second Division. The Second Division emphasizes assassination, and when Hyōrinmaru appears with such overwhelming power, even an idiot would know who he is.

Isshin overjoyed to hear that Tōshirō was coming to the Tenth Division, saying it meant the future of the Tenth Division was bright. Rangiku, however, was furious. "Am I not the future hope of the Tenth Division?" she thought. "Relying on a brat? Humph! No matter how talented he is, he's still a child. I'll see how I deal with him..."

So when Tōshirō arrived at the Tenth Division and saw Rangiku, his face immediately darkened. He was no stranger to Rangiku, because on the New Year's Festival Rangiku was one of the two people who made him feel suffocated.

"Hey! What are you doing here?" Tōshirō shouted.

Rangiku smiled alluringly, "Shouldn't I be the one asking that? I'm the vice-captain of the Tenth Division, why wouldn't I be here? But you, why are you in our Tenth Division?"

"What?!" Tōshirō pointed at Rangiku with a look of utter despair. "You're the lieutenant of the Tenth Division?"

"Yes, little brother Tōshirō, you're the new member the captain told us to treat well, right? Come on, let me give you a proper welcome." Rangiku deliberately emphasized the word "treat," accompanied by a malicious smile. Tōshirō instinctively felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but shiver.

However, Tōshirō had also suffered at Ye Yang's hands, and over the years he had gained some experience. He asked calmly, "Where's the captain? Why are you alone?"

"Captain, he went out on something. He specifically told me something before he left, little brother Tōshirō?"

Tōshirō's forehead. "You'll have to call me little brother! You'll have to call me Hitsugaya, no, soon you'll have to call me Third Seat Hitsugaya!"

Rangiku looked at the little guy in front of her with great interest. "Third Seat? You're challenging for the Third Seat as soon as you join the squad? What an arrogant tone~" Although Rangiku said this, she had also watched Tōshirō's graduation exam. With that kind of strength, challenging for the Third Seat should not be a problem, especially that last move, "Ice Dragon Breath". Even she herself was not confident in surviving it.

Thinking of this Rangiku couldn't help but feel sorry for her unfortunate Third Seat in her squad, who was defeated by a brat who had just joined the Thirteenth Division. What a tragic story.

Tōshirō, however, did not find it arrogant. His tone was not joking, but rather stating a fact that was about to happen.

"Little brother Tōshirō, even if you become the Third Seat, you'll still be below me~ I'm the vice-captain, what I do is my business, and you just need to listen," Rangiku said with a hint of provocation.

Tōshirō's eyes suddenly changed, and he slowly said, "So what? One day I'll become a captain! Then you'll all have to call me Captain Hitsugaya! Including you!"

Rangiku was suddenly stunned. She didn't know where Tōshirō's confidence came from. Even if he was a genius that Soul Society, there were still many geniuses in history who faded into obscurity after showing their talents. There were geniuses in history, but not many of them eventually became captains.

However, Rangiku saw a deep confidence in Tōshirō's eyes. For some reason Rangiku felt that this little boy would definitely become a captain someday, and that day wouldn't be too far away! She unconsciously uttered, "I'll be waiting..."

"What did you say?" Tōshirō asked.

Rangiku snapped out of her daze and resumed her smile, "That's all for the future. All I know is that right now you're just an ordinary member, while I'm the vice-captain~ So, little Tōshirō, you'd better just accept your fate~"

"Don't call me little brother! You big-breasted, brainless woman!" Tōshirō finally lost his temper and bristled.

Upon hearing those four words, Rangiku immediately retorted angrily, "What did you say? You arrogant brat!" However, Rangiku quickly calmed down and replaced her anger with a malicious smile as she slowly walked towards Tōshirō.

Having spent so much time with Ye Yang, Tōshirō had developed a strong sense of crisis. His intuition told him something bad was about to happen, but it was too late. Rangiku pulled Tōshirō into her arms, saying, "Hahaha. You look so cute when you're all puffed up! You're just a kid, why are you acting so mature? Be careful you don't age prematurely!"

Two enormous heads completely submerged Tōshirō's head, and he cried out, his face flushed red, "Stop! Waaaaah... I can't breathe!"

Rangiku giggled, "Haha, you even blush!" Rangiku thought to herself, "No matter how talented you are, you're still just a child! I can't stop you!"

Although Tōshirō often outwits and battles with Ye Yang is, after all, a man, and Soi Fon would never do such a thing. Moreover, Tōshirō already knows some things about Ye Yang and Soi Fon's relationship. Few people could stand Rangiku like this, let alone an innocent boy like Tōshirō.

Therefore, Tōshirō is now completely defeated by Rangiku...

Since Tōshirō graduated, Soul Society has returned to its usual peace, with nothing happening, but it feels like the calm before a storm.

Tōshirō hadn't forgotten what he'd said. In the second month after joining the Tenth Division, he successfully defeated the incumbent Third Seat in the Seated Officer Challenge and became the Third Seat. Now, the lower-ranking members all called him Third Seat Hitsugaya, which pleased him greatly. Of course, it would be even better if Rangiku could be ignored.

Time flew by, and the students of the Shin'ō changed batch after batch. Ye Yang, the vice principal, was quite leisurely. He taught one class per week and had free time to allocate the rest of his time. So Ye Yang spent most of his time in the Second Division.

Ten years passed quickly, and Ye Yang remained the same as before, while Byakuya became even more rigid, with fewer and fewer expressions on his face, making Rukia feel like she was going to the execution ground every time she saw him.

Kaien is still as optimistic as ever, but he has become much more mature since getting married. He has also become very good friends with Rukia and takes good care of her. Rukia now admires Kaien a lot.

Tōshirō seemed to really want to grow into a teenager, but the reality was cruel. Ten years had passed and Tōshirō hadn't grown much taller. Normally, this age is when people grow taller in Soul Society, and thirty is considered an adult. But Tōshirō was in his twenties and still only about 120 centimeters tall.

Therefore, Rangiku always seizes on this point and never lets it go, and every time you argue with Rangiku, you end up losing.

The various divisions remained the same. It's worth mentioning Ye Yang's three former students. Renji seems to have become quite close with Ikkaku since joining the 11th Division. Following a battle maniac like Ikkaku, his strength has naturally improved a lot, and he is now the sixth seat of the 11th Division.

Kira initially joined the Fifth Division because of Hinamori's situation, but he has now transferred to the Third Division. In reality, it's not much different; he's just moved to a different den. He has now successfully secured the position of the Third Seat.

Hinamori was similar. With Aizen's methods, it was incredibly easy to make a simple girl like Hinamori obey. So Hinamori succumbed without any struggle. Her eyes were filled with longing as she looked at Aizen. Ye Yang still remembered what Aizen said when he stabbed Hinamori without hesitation, "Longing is the furthest distance from understanding."

Although Ye Yang didn't agree with the statement, it was indeed very fitting for Hinamori. Ye Yang also wanted to save her, but Hinamori was already deeply mired in the situation and couldn't extricate herself.

Ye Yang's memories of his past life were already blurred, so he didn't know what Aizen's next plan was. All he knew was that Kaien and Kazuya were already gone when the story started, and the captain of the Tenth Division had been replaced by Tōshirō. As for Isshin, he should have gone to the World of the Living. He was probably the eccentric father of the protagonist Ichigo Kurosaki. But for some reason, Isshin would use the name Isshin Kurosaki and go to the human World of the Living to get married and become the protagonist's father.

Ye Yang didn't know how much time was left before the story began. The only thing he was sure of was that Kaien was definitely involved in Aizen's death because he was Isshin on going to the human World of the Living. So now Ye Yang just needed to keep a close eye on what was happening in Soul Society. It might not be a bad thing for Isshin to go to the World of the Living, but Ye Yang would never let Kaien die!

Even if the plot changes, it doesn't matter. Over the years, Ye Yang has long regarded Kaien as a good friend. Besides, he is now married, and his happy life has just begun. How can he let others ruin it? Therefore, Ye Yang vowed in his heart that as long as he can, he will do everything in his power to save Kaien and his wife!

As for Isshin's affairs, Ye Yang didn't plan to interfere. After all, if Isshin hadn't gone to the World of the Living, Ichigo Kurosaki wouldn't have been born. Besides, judging from Isshin's appearance, staying in the World of the Living seemed quite good. Although he had lost his Shinigami powers, he had a harmonious family, which was probably the life many people dreamed of...()
