"What else?"
Yamamoto Genryūsai showed no particular emotion. He simply swept his gaze around the room, as if he were just going through the motions.
The moment Head Captain Yamamoto finished speaking, a rough voice rang out,
"I agree!"
A voice that surprised all the captains rang out.
It was none other than Kenpachi Zaraki.

But she knew
