The gate to the First Division slowly closed, and Jushiro Ukitake stood in his place.
Some people who didn't know or had never seen Chen Fan before glanced at Chen Fan. Perhaps Chen Fan was just a nobody before, and even a criminal, but since Chen Fan went to Hueco Mundo, the peace in Soul Society and the Human World over the years is almost entirely due to Chen Fan. This achievement is undeniable, and none of the captains present dared to say they could do better than Chen Fan.
Everyone thought to themselves, "Is this really him? He seems quite ordinary, but everyone felt the death-like spiritual pressure that Chen Fan released yesterday. It seems that he is the true 'Shinigami'. That spiritual pressure had an extremely dangerous aura and was incredibly powerful."
"Thump!" Genryusai Yamamoto tapped the ground with his cane.
"The new Captain of the 10th Division is now being announced. The new captain of the 10th Division is Chen Fan, formerly a member of the 13th Division of the 13th Division. Does anyone have any objections?"
Chen Fan was slightly taken aback. It was an announcement of the captain's appointment. He couldn't help but look at Jushiro Ukitake smiled slightly at Chen Fan. It turned out that this guy already knew. He thought there would be an interview and had skipped the testing stage.
Suddenly, a voice rang out, "I have an objection!"
Everyone turned their attention to the speaker, none other than Kenpachi Zaraki, the captain of the 11th Division. Looking at Kenpachi Zaraki's afro and the sinister smile on his face, Chen Fan knew exactly what this guy was thinking.
"Do you have any objections, 11th Division Captain?"
"To become a captain, you need to be tested by two captains and possess Bankai. If you don't have Bankai, there's another way: publicly challenge and defeat one of the captains! I wonder which two captains tested you."
"It was the Second Division Captain Soifon and the Third Division Captain Gin Ichimaru who assessed him, and both captains felt that Chen Fan's strength was sufficient."
Chen Fan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. It turned out that Soifon (CGBD) already knew about this. It seemed that last night, Chen Fan not only showed Gin Ichimaru how powerful he was, but also conquered Soifon Fon—well, in a very specific way.
He couldn't help but glance at Soifon Soifon, who pretended not to see him, thinking to herself, "That jerk, he's still so indecent with all the captains here."
"But I heard that Captain Soifon seemed to have come out of the 13th Division this morning," Kenpachi Zaraki said, picking at his ear with his finger.
"You!" Soifon was slightly annoyed;
Chen Fan gestured for Soifon not to be angry, then turned to Kenpachi Zaraki with a smile and said, "Soifon is my wife. We are already engaged. Isn't it normal for her to come out of my room? Does your wife have to come out of another man's room for it to be normal?"
"Pfft!" All the captains burst out laughing, but when they saw the Captain-General, they all suppressed their laughter, Kenpachi Zaraki's mouth curled into a sinister smile;
"Captain Zaraki, what are your suggestions?" Genryusai Yamamoto asked.
"Let the new Captain of the 10th Division have a match with me. If he can beat me into submission, I'll acknowledge him as the Captain of the 10th Division," Kenpachi Zaraki said.
Genryusai Yamamoto looked at Chen Fan. Soifon shook her head slightly with concern. Although Kenpachi Zaraki wasn't very bright, his strength was among the top of the captains. Kenpachi Zaraki became the captain of the 11th Division by killing the previous captain.
Soi Soifon really doesn't understand men's hearts. How could a man possibly back down in front of the woman he loves?
"No problem!" Chen Fan said.
Soon, Chen Fan and his group arrived at a spacious area. Battles at the Captain-level would cause extremely strong damage, so a special venue was necessary. Soon, news spread that Chen Fan was going to fight Kenpachi Zaraki.
The entire Seireitei was in an uproar. The Soul Society had been far too peaceful these past few years, a peace that was both leisurely and boring. A battle at the Captain-level was a once-in-a-century event, and who would let it slip by?
Almost all the Shinigami in Seireitei who received the news rushed towards the arena, especially the members of the 10th Division. Few of them had seen the person who was about to become their Captain of the 10th Division, so they naturally wanted to see how strong the captain was. If the captain wasn't strong enough, the other members wouldn't have any presence when they walked around. This was a common problem among the 13th Division, and it was also to increase their competitive spirit so that they could grow quickly.

(Chapter Thirty-Six: The Gap)
Seireitei hadn't been this lively in years; all the Shinigami were rushing towards this place, and countless figures appeared in the sky.
Seeing this, the lieutenant of the First Division couldn't help but whisper in Genryusai Yamamoto's ear, "Captain-General, the Shinigami of Seireitei..."
"It's alright! The Soul Society has been peaceful for too long. Letting these people see the power of the captains clash will stimulate all the Shinigami." Genryusai Yamamoto said, slightly opening his eyes. As the Captain-General, Genryusai Yamamoto wasn't entirely heartless; it's just that he had lived for too long, and watching his family and subordinates disappear one by one was a truly painful feeling. So, over time, he became the way he is now.
