Boom!!
With a thunderous roar, endless heat waves blasted through the roof of the 1st Division Barracks! A massive mushroom cloud slowly rose, leaving countless 1st Division members staring wide-eyed in shock.
"This is bad! Genryūsai-sama is in danger!"
"Captain-Commander Yamamoto, please don't let anything happen to you!"
After their brief shock, the 1st Division members were overwhelmed by boundless concern for their Captain-Commander. However, the heat waves were simply too intense, preventing them from getting anywhere near the 1st Division Captain's Office.
"Genryūsai-sama, are you alright?!"
"What exactly happened here?!"
"Could this be an enemy attack?!"
"Who would dare attack the Captain-Commander? They must have some nerve!"
Only after the heat waves dispersed did one 1st Division member after another rush into the Captain's Office, anxiously questioning Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, who stood there with his Zanpakuto in hand and a slightly dazed look on his face.
"..."
Yamamoto kept his head lowered, silently staring at the Zanpakuto in his hand for a long while.
"Do not panic!"
"A mosquito merely entered the barracks... but Captain-Commander Yamamoto has already eliminated it!"
Before Genryūsai could speak, Sasakibe, who stood beside him, stepped before the division members and explained what had happened.
"Uh! If it was just a mosquito, did the Captain-Commander really need to release his Zanpakuto?!"
One of the members found that strange and instinctively looked to Sasakibe for an answer.
"That mosquito was rather large! Yes, very large, very large..."
Sasakibe answered without changing expression.
"But Captain-Commander Yamamoto's left eye looks bruised! Could a mere mosquito have done that? Vice-Captain Sasakibe, was our division really not invaded by enemies just now?!"
Another member, after carefully examining Genryūsai's condition, continued questioning Sasakibe.
"What bruise? You saw it wrong! That was merely a swollen mosquito
