Chapter 472
Chen Fan returned to the 10th Division's headquarters and was once again subjected to a barrage of insults from Toshiro. Honestly, if only he had his old superpowers to block out sound.
Toshiro seemed to have finally finished spewing his breath, or perhaps he wasn't quite done but was just exhausted. He sat down in a chair, panting heavily. Between the two, Toshiro seemed more like the captain, while Chen Fan the immature vice-captain.
"So, what was the result?" Toshiro asked.
"What was the result?" Chen Fan asked, feigning ignorance.
"Still playing dumb? Don't you know what the 10th Division is responsible for? You're the captain of the 10th Division!" Toshiro slammed his fist on the table and shouted in dissatisfaction. The 10th Division was responsible for patrolling and protecting the Seireitei. Chen Fan hadn't been careful or tried to avoid being discovered; he had openly entered the 6th Division.
6th Division Captain Byakuya Kuchiki is widely known to be at odds with Chen Fan. The two dislike each other and neither would ever join the other's division. Chen Fan's visit to the 6th Division must mean something, and there's no point in trying to hide it.
Furthermore, Toshiro secretly arranged for his team members to report Chen Fan's whereabouts to him, so that Chen Fan wouldn't do anything foolish and he could bring Chen Fan from further damaging the reputation of the 10th Division.
"Oh, oh...! It's that one, yes, I thought you were talking about the result of my relationship with that beautiful woman," Chen Fan said with a smile;
"Whoosh...!" Toshiro Zanpakuto slit in his Zanpakuto;
"For a first-degree heinous crime, Kuchiki Rukia will be executed at the True Reaper Punishment Field in 25 days as a death row inmate. This is the final decision of Soul Society; this is what Byakuya Kuchiki said," Chen Fan immediately stated.
"Byakuya Kuchiki." Toshiro's eyes narrowed slightly. "Is there really an older brother like this?"
"So, Captain, what do you mean?" Toshiro asked, looking into Chen Fan's eyes.
Chen Fan looked up and said, "Well... who knows!"
"This is infuriating! But whatever decision you make, Captain, I will support you. I believe that all the Shinigami in the 10th Division will support you," Toshiro said.
"Toshiro..." Chen Fan looked at Toshiro with teary eyes;
"Of course, it's about the emotional aspect!"
"You bastard! After following me for so many years, haven't you learned even the slightest thing?!"
"You have no redeeming qualities, but you're full of flaws!"
Shut up, you little rascal!
"You said things you shouldn't have! Are you prepared to die?!"
"Who's afraid of who? Come on, brat! Let's talk when you've beaten me once!"
"This is the one!"...
Clang! Bang! Thud! The sounds of a playful fight erupted from the captain's office. The members of the 10th Division shook their heads helplessly and sighed. Having a captain like this was really something; if his personality were a bit more normal, he would probably be the best captain.
After finishing his work, Chen Fan went to the 13th Division to see Kaien Shiba, Miako Shiba, and the other members of the 13th Division. Rukia was a member of the 13th Division —she had been captured and was to be executed. All the members must have received the news from Jushiro Ukitake.
When Chen Fan arrived, the usual lively and cheerful atmosphere had vanished, replaced by a somber mood.
"Captain Chen Fan!" The two guards stood at attention and saluted when they saw Chen Fan arrive.
"You all continue your duties, I'll go in and take a look!" Chen Fan said.
"Yes!"
The sound of Chen Fan's arrival had reached the ears of almost all the 13th Division. Everyone looked up in surprise and in the direction Chen Fan came from. Sometimes, Chen Fan had more authority than Jushiro Ukitake, the captain of the 13th Division.
"Chen Fan!" Chen Fan walked into the captain's office, where Ukitake Jushiro, Shiba Kaien, Shiba Miako, Kojima Sentaro, and Kotetsu Kiyone were all present. They all greeted Chen Fan upon seeing him.
