Kyoraku dubiously kept Lin Nan's method in mind. Immediately, several people heard their names being called.
This time, the college students went out with Court Guard Squad, causing too much commotion, and everyone knew about the whole Seireitei.
Maybe someone in Central 46 really wanted to take this opportunity to frustrate several disciples of Yamamoto. But after the news spread so widely, the development of things was no longer under the control of Central 46.
The well-connected deans have already settled themselves within the rules. The rest, who are incompetent, naturally have no choice but to resign themselves to their fate.
The Tsunayashiro Clan generation is exempt from military service, so Tsunayashiro Tokinada will not go out with the team. This is not as good as Shihoin House who actively integrates into Court Guard Squad.
However, Shihoin Sennichi was the first to second Kyoraku Shunsui. This was beyond most people's expectations.
Lin Nan didn't pay much attention to it. This arrangement must have been promoted by Yamamoto behind the scenes.
Shikai of Kyoraku Shunsui is about to be completed. Now just based on the performance of Jinzen, we can judge that this will be a very special Zanpakuto.
In such an important time period, Captain-Commander will naturally not neglect it. Sending Kyoraku to 2nd Division to guard Seireitei is actually a kind of protection for Kyoraku.
The eaglet is most vulnerable only in the moment before it breaks out of its shell. If it cannot break out of its shell smoothly, it will be suffocated to death in the eggshell.
Lin Nan was, without any surprise, admitted to 8th Division by Katori, and followed 8th Division in all activities.
Although Ukitake is the disciple of Captain-Commander, and has just cultivated Shikai. However, due to his relatively low status, he still has to participate in the drawing of groups with other non-noble students to decide which team he will follow.
Lin Nan looked not far away, and a large group of people gathered together, squeezing each other to get the right to draw lots first. Among these people, there were many members of the Noble Rights Protection Association.
Lin Nan thought for a while, but still grabbed Ukitake who was about to participate in the lottery:
"You come with me! I will be able to take care of you then. I will apply with Captain 8th Division later."
Although Ukitake has strong spiritual pressure and Zanpakuto's ability is outstanding enough, it is a flaw that his spiritual body is too weak. Such physical conditions severely limit Ukitake's upper limits for cutting, punching, and walking.
The best tactic for Ukitake is to stand still and use Kido. If the enemy attacks, just use Sōgyo no Kotowari to bounce back and create a fixed turret. However, in actual combat, if there is no effective assist from your companions, this tactic will almost lead to death.
Therefore, Lin Nan brought Ukitake with him for the sake of safety.
In the afternoon of that day, all the students gathered in the square outside the gate of the Spirit Arts Academy, preparing to join their respective teams.
Among the crowd, Lin Nan saw Amamiya Keiji waiting in line. During the morning lottery, Amemiya, together with several other Noble Rights Protection Association members, were also included in the 8th Division sequence.
Amemiya also felt Lin Nan's gaze. The two looked at each other for a moment and nodded slightly as a greeting.
Lin Nan's eyes swept across the entire square. At this moment, there was a huge crowd, as if what everyone was about to face was not a bloody battlefield, but a spring outing in the mountains.
A strong sense of alienation filled his heart.
Just like in the square, the blue and red student uniforms and the black Soul Reaper uniforms are incompatible.
Ukitake also said with a bit of uncertainty, "I didn't expect that after just a few days of entering the academy, I would have to leave again temporarily. Fortunately, we are much stronger than when we first entered the school."
Lin Nan glanced gently at Ukitake's expression. Compared with when Shikai was practicing a few days ago, his face was slightly rosier.
Could it be that when Right Hand of the Soul King helped subdue Zanpakuto, he neglected to suppress the lung disease?
Lin Nan shook his head and responded softly to Ukitake: "Yes, it was too rushed. It feels more like I came to the Spirit Arts Academy to play for a few days and then left - I always have a bad feeling when I come out this time."
It was the first time that Ukitake saw Lin Nan's expression so downcast, so he turned to attention and said, "Lin Sang, isn't it because you encountered obstacles in your practice in the past few days and you are still worried?"
Lin Nan shook his head. "It's nothing. I'm just restless. Let's go, 8th Division's people are here~"
The members of 8th Division formed two five-person teams, waiting at the edge of the square for the students who had been organized into sequences to join.
Almost instantly, the students assigned to 8th Division ran towards the team at the edge of the square from several directions at the same time.
Since Ukitake's physical fitness had to be taken into consideration, Lin Nan and the two could only be left behind together and walked slowly as if they were strolling down the street.
Many students in the square were already casting surprised glances at the two of them.
Lin Nan was still pretending to be expressionless, trying hard to maintain the irritable bastard character he had created before. Suddenly, he felt a strong and dizzy discomfort welling up in his mind!
Ukitake immediately noticed something strange about Lin Nan and asked with concern, "Are you okay? You don't look good?"
Lin Nan felt numb and itchy all over his body, and his heart was full of restlessness, as if something was trying to come out of his bone marrow. It was out of reach, but it made people scratch their hearts. Accompanied by strong dizziness, he could only stand still with the help of Ukitake.
Big beads of cold sweat instantly dripped from his forehead.
"What's going on! I'm..." Lin Nan himself didn't understand what was happening to him.
Ukitake was supporting Lin Nan, but as he was not as tall as Lin Nan, he could not provide much support, so in the end he could only let Lin Nan sit down where he was.
Lin Nan sat on the ground and looked up unintentionally. "Damn it. Why is the sky red?"
In his field of vision, the sky above his head was shrouded in a faint translucent light red.
Ukitake looked up strangely. "No, Lin Nan, are you hallucinating?"
Lin Nan couldn't help but frown. "I can see you but not you. It seems to be my hallucination. But, why do I suddenly have hallucinations?"
But there is no time to think about it, 8th Division's departure time is coming soon.
The three 8th Division team members jogged all the way and came to the front of Lin Nan.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Lin Nan?" asked a young team member who looked relatively friendly.
Lin Nan nodded. "I am. What are you guys doing here?"
He looked beyond the Mianshan team members and towards the two companions behind him. The two men were carrying two long poles, with a small chair fixed in the middle of the long poles.
Isn't this just a sedan?
Lin Nan was dizzy and had no time to think. In the midst of doubts, he saw the other three people immediately put down the sedan and stepped forward to lift themselves up together.
"The captain specifically told us that we must bring Mr. Lin Nan to the team." Captain Mian Shan explained seriously.
Lin Nan's expression completely collapsed. "What? Why?"
"The captain didn't say anything." Captain Mianshan replied politely, and then helped his two companions place Lin Nan in the small sedan.
Ukitake witnessed all this and had no idea what was going on. He could only watch blankly from the side.
Although Lin Nan was indeed dizzy, he was still a face-conscious person after all. He struggled to stand up. "Ukitake, these people are messing around. You are not in good health. Come up and sit down!"
Ukitake shook his head subconsciously. "No, I have nothing to do now. I feel you need this chair more."
Captain Mian Shan took over with a smile, "Thank you for understanding. But today, except Mr. Lin Nan, no one else can sit in this chair. This is the captain's death order."
As he spoke, he casually placed a small flag on the back of the chair:
The flagpole is about 1.5 meters high, with a small piece of cloth hanging on it. On the cloth strip is written in thick calligraphy:
8th Division Lin Nan.
Lin Nan just felt that his blood pressure was a little high. "Who the hell wrote this? I'm just a college student. I don't even know how to join the team! Who did this to me?"
Captain Mian Shan was a little embarrassed and said, "This is written by the captain herself. According to her, she was afraid that other captains would take it away from you... So this flag and this chair can only be enjoyed by you."
Lin Nan was a little helpless. He was spinning around, but he was pinned down on the chair by Soul Reaper, so he could only let himself be manipulated.
He was lifted into the air and walked in front of the team. In front of him, in his sight, were the streets that were reflected reddish by the sky and the sparse crowds; and behind him was the small flag that made him feel ugly.
A Katori flag that blatantly declares the ownership of personnel. Does it mean to declare sovereignty in other aspects? I don't know...
Everyone in the square looked at him sideways and whispered, some were envious and some were annoyed.
Lin Nan and his party left Spirit Arts Academy and met up with 8th Division's large troops who were preparing to go out at the White Way Gate square at the west exit of Seireitei.
8th Division's final destination--to return to Western Rukon District District 64 Rust Face to consolidate the front lines previously fought against the rebels.
Lin Nan was feeling dizzy and felt a little melancholy: After being out for so long, he could finally go back to Rust Face in a big way. I wonder what happened to the old man who took him in?
The large force passed through White Way Gate and began to move in the direction of Western Rukon District.
