Congratulations, the Demon King Has Set His Sights on You / Hey, You-Come Out Here
Shunsui Kyōraku gazed at the white clouds in the sky, memories flooded his mind.
"The weather is so nice today, perfect for a good night's sleep." Shunsui Kyōraku stretched and turned over.
Two hundred years have passed since he became the Captain of the 8th Division. Unlike the young man he was two or three hundred years ago, Shunsui Kyōraku now has a weathered look on his face, and he looks very much like the middle-aged man he was at the beginning of the main storyline. He has a light stubble on his face, wears a straw hat, and wears a pink robe as his outermost coat. At this moment, he is comfortably lying in his office, slacking off.
After two hundred years of refinement, he finally understood the benefits of slacking off.
"Lisa, I'm counting on you for today's work." Shunsui Kyōraku lay lazily on the floor.
The next second, a small foot wrapped in Black Silk Stockings mercilessly stepped on Shunsui Kyōraku's face.
"I should do my own work! Why are you making me, a newcomer to the Gotei 13, handle so many important documents?!"
The speaker's name is "Lisa Yadōmaru", a female member who just graduated from the Shino Academy this year and joined the 8th Division.
Lisa Yadōmaru looks very young now, probably not even thirteen years old. She wears glasses, a modified short skirt, and Black Silk Stockings covering her two straight and slender legs.
At the moment, Lisa Yadōmaru is just an ordinary team member, but Shunsui Kyōraku feels that this little girl gets along very well with him, so he dumps all his work on Lisa Yadōmaru and lets her do it for him. As for himself... he'll just have a drink and take a nap.
After a while, Lisa Yadōmaru finally rebelled!
"Lisa -chan, I understand how you feel, but don't forget you're wearing a short skirt. If you step on me like that, I'll see everything underneath!" Shunsui Kyōraku said leisurely.
The current Lisa Yadōmaru is not the same butter-loving girl engrossed in reading erotic books. Her face flushed red as she covered her skirt, then raised her foot and stomped down with even more force, only to be caught by Shunsui Kyōraku with one hand.
"Girls shouldn't be so hot-tempered! Put work aside for now, there's something more important to do today." Shunsui Kyōraku rolled over and stood up from the ground.
The girl glared angrily at her Captain. Why were all the Captain so different from what she had imagined? She had envisioned Captain who were gentle, handsome, responsible, and capable. Why was her Captain a lecherous old man who enjoyed sexual harassment?
"Alright, alright, don't be angry!" Shunsui Kyōraku gently stroked Lisa Yadōmaru's head.
The girl's body trembled slightly. Shunsui Kyōraku thought she was moved by his gentleness and was about to speak when he heard Lisa Yadōmaru mutter in a low, curse-like voice, "Hair! Hair! Hair! My hairstyle that took me an hour to fix this morning! Don't mess up my hair!"
Shunsui Kyōraku was startled and quickly removed his hand; girls these days are really hard to understand.
Are gentle, mature men no longer popular these days?
Shunsui Kyōraku muttered to himself.
"Alright, put down your work and let's head to the Shino Academy." Shunsui Kyōraku said with a smile, "Today is the first day of school at the Shino Academy. Let's see if there are any suitable students for us. Recruiting talent in advance is a crucial secret to long-term success!"
He also recruited Lisa Yadōmaru using this method. At the time, Lisa Yadōmaru was just a second-year student, and Shunsui Kyōraku immediately took a liking to this little girl, whose personality was very compatible with his.
At first, Lisa Yadōmaru, had finally been recognized by a discerning eye. However, after joining the 8th Division, she realized that she was really there to be a slave. The Captain was too irresponsible, piling almost all the work on her, a newcomer!
Although most of the work involves trivial matters, why did I join the 8th Division?
Of course, it's for my ideals! I'll definitely become a great Grim Reaper someday! And now you want me to be your slave here? Dream on!
"It's obvious you're trying to fool other girls, and I won't let you do that." Although Lisa Yadōmaru has only known the Captain of her own clan for less than a year, she already knows this man very well; he'll appear wherever there are lots of girls.
Today is the opening ceremony of the Shino Academy, and there will definitely be many young and beautiful girls attending the school, which gives this older man an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"You're overthinking it! I'm not that kind of person. I'm really just selecting talent for our 8th Division. If all the talent is picked up by other teammates, won't your workload be even heavier? Besides, once we have juniors, you can pass on the work I've given you to them, which will make things easier for you." Shunsui Kyōraku was like the Big Bad Wolf who lured Little Red, completely fooling the young girl. Upon closer inspection, what he said did seem to make a lot of sense.
"Then... shall we go take a look together?"
And so, the two of them arrived at the Shino Academy.
Shunsui Kyōraku spotted the Yamabuki Chidori at first glance.
"Is this Old Man aging in reverse? He's clearly five or six hundred years old, how come he looks so young? Even younger than before!" Shunsui Kyōraku muttered to himself.
At this moment, Yamabuki Chidori was squatting in a corner, holding a cup of hot tea in both hands, taking a sip every now and then.
Judging solely from his appearance, he looked exactly like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, no different from the other students who had just joined the Shino Academy.
As the dean of the Shino Academy, Yamabuki Chidori is always present at the opening ceremony every year.
The Teacher started calling out the students' names one by one, asking them to come up and receive their uniforms and textbooks.
Furthermore, the order in which names are called is based on the ranking of entrance exam scores. In other words, the earlier a student's name appears, the higher their potential and the better their grades.
Yamabuki Chidori squatted there and continued drinking tea, as names kept coming into his ears, only to find that none of them were familiar.
In other words, these students will at best be cannon fodder in the next few hundred years.
"I can't think like that. As a Teacher, I should treat all these students equally; they are all my lovely disciples!" Yamabuki Chidori encouraged herself.
Soon the names had reached the last page.
I still didn't hear that familiar name.
The process continued until the Teacher reading out the last name on the student admission list.
"Aizen Sōsuke, are you there? Come up and get your clothes."
"Bang! "Yamabuki Chidori suddenly stood up.
Chapter Two: Congratulations, you've caught the attention of the Great Demon King!
"What's wrong with the Old Man? He seemed really excited just now." Shunsui Kyōraku looked up at Yamabuki Chidori: "Could there be some pretty young girls among this batch of new recruits? This Old Man man is old in years but young at heart! Speaking of which, many female Shinigami in Seireitei are aging at an abnormally rapid rate. Captain Unohana should be seven or eight hundred years old, right? She looks like she's seventeen or eighteen. Captain Saito too, could it be... that this Old Man is hiding some secret that can delay aging?"
Over the past few hundred years Captain Commander Yamamoto rapidly, and is now very similar to the Old Man he was at the beginning of the main storyline. Yamabuki Chidori promised to help him grow his hair back, but of course, that ultimately failed.
Knowing the will of Heaven is one thing, but going against it is another.
It wasn't me who made you lose all your hair, it was God. You should go and settle the score with God! Why did you try to beat me up with Ryūjin Jakka? People really do become more unreasonable as they get older.
Yamabuki Chidori often muttered about this.
However, all the experiences of the past five hundred years combined cannot compare to the awe-inspiring moment of this one.
Aizen Sōsuke.
Anyone who has watched Bleach knows this name.
He is hailed as the pinnacle of anime villains.
Strength, intelligence, and prestige—all at the top level.
He repeatedly pushed the protagonist to the brink of defeat, and in the final Thousand-Year Blood War, he provided perfect support, using Kyōka Suigetsu to control Yhwach and help Kurosaki Ichigo secure the kill.
He merged with the Hogyoku, becoming immortal.
They have evolved to a dimension far beyond that of the Shinigami and Hollows.
"I'm here!" A gentle boy's voice rang out from below the stage, and a boy who looked only eleven or twelve years old walked up to the stage to retrieve his clothes and textbooks.
Yamabuki Chidori carefully examined the boy in front of her.
Wearing glasses, he looked somewhat frail, with an air more akin to a scholar. He wore an innocent smile, and anyone who saw him would immediately think, "He's a gentle person."
Is this Aizen Sōsuke in his youth?
Aizen seemed to notice Yamabuki Chidori's gaze, but he didn't mind her staring at him and instead gave a gentle smile.
No wonder Momo Hinamori is so infatuated with her.
Before he dismantled his disguise, Aizen was extremely popular in Soul Society. He was incredibly powerful, gentle, and a master calligrapher. His calligraphy classes were always packed, with many students even crowding into the hallways.
A smile also appeared on Yamabuki Chidori's face.
Because he knew that from this moment on, the gears of fate had begun to turn completely.
He could easily eliminate the boy in front of him by any means necessary if he wanted to, to prevent any potential problems, but he didn't want to do so.
"Teacher Murata, give me this year's students' report cards. I want to see their grades when they entered the university," said Yamabuki Chidori.
When the Teacher who was distributing supplies on the podium heard what Yamabuki Chidori said, he ran over and hurriedly put the students' report cards into his hands.
Many students were curious. At first, they thought the boy was a freshman like them, but now it seemed... he was probably a leader in the academy.
Yamabuki Chidori bypassed the people in front of her, her gaze fixed intently on Aizen Sōsuke's entrance exam results.
He ranked last in his entrance exam, and every single one of his grades was just barely passing, not a point more or less.
This has to be the legendary score-control master, right?
Teacher Murata didn't know what the dean meant, so he could only stand aside and wait quietly.
"Alright, take these students back to their classrooms!" Yamabuki Chidori casually handed over the report cards and looked at Aizen Sōsuke again.
At this time, Aizen was still a boy, but even so, his senses were very sharp, and he vaguely sensed that the young man of extraordinary status seemed to be very interested in him.
After the students had all left, Shunsui Kyōraku staggered over and asked, "Old Man, you looked terrible just now. What happened?"
Yamabuki Chidori stared at Aizen Sōsuke figure. "I accidentally discovered an extraordinary genius. Should I be happy or sad?"
Shunsui Kyōraku failed to understand the meaning of Yamabuki Chidori.
"By the way, how did you get here?" Yamabuki Chidori asked, staring at her disciple.
"Of course we're here to select talent."
"The year before last, you said you were here to select talent, and you ended up picking the prettiest girl in that grade. The year after that, you said you were looking for talent, and you picked the most popular girl in the department. As for last year, well, Lisa -chan still couldn't escape your clutches. How dare you say that? You must be here for pretty girls again, right?" Yamabuki Chidori's face was full of disdain.
Lisa Yadōmaru, clutching her still-developing breasts, said coldly, "I knew the Captain was a complete pervert!"
"Hey, hey, hey! Can you two be serious for once... I'm really here to scout for talent." Shunsui Kyōraku was at a loss for words after being teased by these two.
"By the way, Old Man, which one have you taken a fancy to?" Shunsui Kyōraku asked. "It's not another young and beautiful girl, is it?"
"You think I'm like you? This time I've got my eye on a boy," Yamabuki Chidori said.
Shunsui Kyōraku gently pinched his chin. "It's so strange, why are all your disciples boys? Me or Ukitake, couldn't you take on a few female disciples? For example, wouldn't it be so much more enjoyable to massage your back and legs when you're tired from work?"
Both Yamabuki Chidori and Lisa Yadōmaru stared at Shunsui Kyōraku with disdain.
"I have serious things to do, so I'm not going to mess around with you anymore. Lisa, are you going to have dinner with me later? Or are you going to have dinner with this perverted Captain? Maybe he'll take you to eat lollipops and then watch Little Gold..." Before Yamabuki Chidori could finish speaking, Shunsui Kyōraku covered her mouth.
"You old geezer! Don't corrupt the children! You're the pervert!" Shunsui Kyōraku yelled.
Lisa Yadōmaru looked at the two men with curiosity, completely unable to understand what that sentence meant.
It wasn't until many years later that she understood the meaning of those words. By then, Lisa Yadōmaru had evolved into a seasoned adult gamer, the kind who was incredibly skilled at driving.
"If we're going to have lunch together... of course I'll go with the Chief Strategist!" Without the slightest hesitation, Lisa Yadōmaru betrayed her Captain and ran off with Yamabuki Chidori.
"Oh dear! Daughters grow up and leave home!" Shunsui Kyōraku rubbed his temples, then, his curiosity piqued, he looked in the direction the students had left and muttered to himself, "Who on earth are they? They've managed to pique this Old Man's interest! I'll have to see!"
Chapter Three: Hey you, come out with me.
Aizen and the Teacher returned to the classroom to prepare for class.
He kept thinking about the young man from earlier.
"Teacher, who was that young man who was looking at the report cards just now?" Aizen asked.
The Teacher glanced back at the boy. Aizen appeared very thin and small, only reaching the Teacher's chest. Moreover, because his grades were the lowest in the class, he was not valued by the Teacher.
"This has nothing to do with you. Just focus on your studies. Although your grades are the lowest in the class, don't forget that the starting point doesn't represent the ending point. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can definitely become a great grim reaper." The Teacher was still encouraging the boy.
Aizen wore a gentle smile and did not pursue the matter further.
"It seems that young man is of high status. Is he a nobleman? Or a high-ranking member of the school?" Aizen pondered for a moment, but due to the lack of information, he couldn't confirm the other party's true identity. That person seemed quite interested in him.
But none of that matters.
As long as you get through your time at school smoothly, that's fine.
At that time, he didn't have any grand ambitions.
Or, like most eleven or twelve-year-olds, they had no idea what their future held.
Just as Aizen was pondering these questions, the Teacher on the podium suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Captain Kyōraku, what brings you here?"
Shunsui Kyōraku glanced lazily at the students in the class.
Then, very gently, he asked the Teacher, "Who is Aizen Sōsuke?"
He clearly remembered that when "Aizen Sōsuke" was called out, the Old Man's face showed a look of shock.
So he wanted to see just who this Aizen really was.
The Teacher wore a very strange expression. Why would so many important figures be so interested in the student who was last in his class?
"Aizen, stand up right now!" the Teacher shouted at Aizen.
Aizen obediently stood up from the last row.
Shunsui Kyōraku began to scrutinize the boy before him. He was young, wore glasses, and had a very gentle demeanor. He was slightly thin, and judging from his appearance, he seemed like an innocent-looking boy. Moreover, his grades were terrible; he was last in his class. Why was the Old Man so concerned about this child?
