The Captains' Training / Disappear, Kira-Maru

He could tell at a glance that the man was capable, but that was all.

"Come on! Let me see what kind of skills this guy has to compete for Captain!"

Yamabuki Chidori silently counted on her fingers. Yamamoto, curious, leaned closer and asked, "What are you counting?"

"Three!"

"Three? Three what?" the Captain Commander asked curiously.

"Two!"

The Captain Commander suddenly realized what his Staff Officer had been counting.

"One!"

"Boom!!!"

Tsunayashiro Fūka was sent flying like a broken kite by a single punch and immediately went into emergency care.

At Tsunayashiro Fūka is about the same level as Chōjirō Sasakibe now. What gives him the guts to challenge Shikkōgai Musashi?

With a helpless expression, Yamabuki Chidori went to give him first aid, hoping that the punch wouldn't kill him!

Shikkōgai Musashi snorted coldly, "How about it! Hurry up and fight me?"

Yamamoto's eyes gleamed; this was indeed a master, having killed the Lieutenant in a single move.

Seeing that the Old Man was about to make a move, Yamabuki Chidori, carrying Tsunayashiro Fūka, turned and ran away. Knowing the Captain Commander's temper, he wouldn't be able to take care of him once the fight started.

While running, Yamabuki Chidori performed emergency resuscitation on Tsunayashiro Fūka, and finally, she woke up.

"Staff Officer? What happened to me? How did I get here? I remember fighting someone!" Tsunayashiro Fūka was completely bewildered; he didn't even have the memory of being instantly killed.

Just then, a pillar of fire shot into the sky from the First Division Barracks, and a wild and domineering Reiatsu spread throughout the entire Seireitei.

Knowing it was almost over, Yamabuki Chidori left Tsunayashiro Fūka behind and turned back to the First Division.

The Captain Commander was sitting there calmly drinking tea, Shikkōgai Musashi, lay on the ground, his body charred black and smoking!

"Young people these days are really hot-tempered." The Captain Commander calmly took a sip of tea. It seemed that Shikkōgai Musashi hadn't even had a chance to unleash his Zanpakuto before being instantly defeated by the Captain Commander.

That Old Man is really something! He hurt someone so badly, and I ended up having to save him! And he still doesn't pay me. I've had enough of this every day!

With a sigh, Yamabuki Chidori began Shikkōgai Musashi's injuries. It was thanks to this guy's thick skin that he recovered from the Ryūjin Jakka in no time. He was really amazing!

"Now that the fight has begun, shouldn't you submit?" Yamabuki Chidori asked.

"Yeah, I give up," said Shikkōgai Musashi with a look of horror.

Chapter 158: The Captain ' Training

After finishing her work, Yamabuki Chidori prepared to go home and get some rest.

Since moving in with Unohana, the house has been filled with flowers and plants. Although Unohana is ruthless when she's killing people, she really loves growing flowers and plants, especially flower arranging!

A row of various flowers was placed on the windowsill, but the Yamabuki Chidori was never allowed to touch them.

Not long after, Unohana also finished work.

Perhaps because they've lived together for so long, they've developed a great rapport; one cooks, and the other cleans.

However, when Unohana cooks Yamabuki Chidori always keeps a close eye on her, because if you're not careful, Unohana will put the Compulsory Quantity of chili peppers into the dishes.

Yamabuki Chidori can only handle the highest level of spiciness, which is "mild". Anything hotter will cause excruciating pain.

Unohana prefers strong flavors, and if you give her even the slightest chance, the spiciness level will immediately spike to the maximum!

The first time she ate her cooking, Yamabuki Chidori was so overwhelmed by the spiciness that she rolled on the ground, tears streaming down her face, and banged her head against the wall repeatedly.

That was simply the most horrific form of torture in the world.

That's why he was forced to develop the yin-yang hot pot.

Occasionally, the two of them would have a few drinks while eating.

As the time for the Blood War drew closer, the pressure on Yamabuki Chidori was increasing, after all, according to the Soul King, she had a high chance of dying in that great battle.

Yamabuki Chidori knew that the Soul King's words could not be completely trusted. There were many possibilities in the future, and the omniscient and All-Knowing All-Powerful could be deceived by some means. Moreover, she had swallowed the Soul King's flesh and learned Bankai, which gave her a glimmer of hope for survival.

However, that alone is not enough.

"I plan to have all the Captain come to our underground training ground for intensive training during their spare time. After all, the great battle is coming soon, and it will be beneficial to increase our strength before the battle arrives," said Yamabuki Chidori.

"Okay. I have no objection." Unohana smiled even more happily. Being able to kill people legitimately was great.

The next day at work, Yamabuki Chidori told the Captain Commander about it. The Captain Commander agreed without hesitation, but added a condition: not only should the Captain be trained, but also the members with potential.

So after dinner the next day, the current Captain of the Gotei 13 gathered at the Yamabuki Chidori's training ground.

"Wow! You actually dug out such a big training ground in your own backyard? That's impressive!" Saitō Fubōfu looked at the underground training ground in shock. Unless it was Bankai with the power of the Zanka no Tachi, this space was enough to cause a lot of trouble.

Yamabuki Chidori looked at the Captain Commander with a strange expression. "Why are you here too? Is there still room for improvement in your strength?"

"Can't I be Teacher to you brats?" Yamamoto sneered.

Yamabuki Chidori counted the number of people.

First Division Captain: Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto; Lieutenant: Chōjirō Sasakibe.

Second Division Captain Shunshun Shidō; Lieutenant Hachisato.

Third Division Captain Gen'en Kinra.

Fourth Division Captain Shijima Chiru.

The Sixth Division Captain Saitō Fubōfu.

The Captain of the Seventh Division Shikkōgai Musashi.

Captain of the 8th Division Katoru Hatsunoya.

Captain Unohana the 11th Division.

Captain of the 12th Division, Zendouji Yuuhin.

Captain of the Thirteenth Division, Sakurane Saizo.

The entire Gotei 13 is still missing three Captain to be assembled; the task is arduous and the road ahead is long.

In addition, Hane Hane Chiyo also came to join in the fun.

Sakurane Saizo smiled as he looked at the young people in front of him. "Youth is wonderful," he thought, "But even if I were a thousand years younger, I would still be more energetic than these people."

"You keep talking about training, but what kind of training are you talking about?" Saitō Fubōfu asked.

For most geniuses, reaching the Captain-level is already the limit; after reaching this level, a lot of time is needed to increase Reiatsu.

Take Tōshirō Hitsugaya for example. He learned Bankai at a young age and reached the strength of Captain, but for a long time afterward, his strength did not improve significantly.

According to Shunsui Kyōraku, it would take at least a hundred years for Tōshirō Hitsugaya to surpass him in strength—and I emphasize "possibly."

Moreover, many people believe this is just Shunsui Kyōraku being modest.

Once you reach Captain-level strength, further advancement is only possible through some extraordinary encounter, such as visiting the Soul King Palace.

Byakuya went to the Soul King Palace for treatment after being seriously injured, which allowed his strength to be further enhanced.

Renji Abarai and Rukia Kuchiki also reached Captain-level strength because of their trip to the Soul King Palace.

Captain-level skill level is sufficient to handle most problems.

"Good question. The fastest way to get stronger is through real combat. However, because our Captain is too strong, he often doesn't have the opportunity to show his full strength. Over time, his strength not only won't improve, but he might even regress. That's why I prepared this place. Don't worry, I've reinforced this training ground with Reishi. You can fight to your heart's content here! Fight until you can't move anymore! Over there are the Bone Hell and Blood Pond that I stole from Tenjirō Kirinji. No matter how badly you're injured, you can recover quickly once you go in. So everyone, fight to your heart's content!" Yamabuki Chidori opened her arms and said with a face full of chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur).

As a result, all the Captain, except for the Captain Commander, focused their attention on him.

"Why... why are you all staring at me like that?" Yamabuki Chidori suddenly had a bad feeling.

"If it's time to fight..." Saitō Fubōfu looked at Yamabuki Chidori with a wicked grin.

"Of course we'll choose the strongest one to fight!" Shikkōgai Musashi also drew his Zanpakuto.

"Besides the Captain Commander... you're the strongest here, right?" Shunshun Shidō looked at Yamabuki Chidori with a smile.

Yamabuki Chidori swallowed hard, took two steps back, and bumped into someone. When she turned around, she saw Unohana looking at her with a smile.

Katoru Hatsunoya, with a very girlish posture, held the naginata in his hand, looked shyly at Yamabuki Chidori, and then jumped into the air and slashed down with a fierce blow.

Katoru Hatsunoya's actions seemed to have flipped some strange switch on these people; in an instant, all the Captain Lieutenant drew their swords and rushed towards Yamabuki Chidori.

"You... you gang up on me? You have no sportsmanship! If you keep this up, I won't be polite!" Yamabuki Chidori shouted.

However, opportunities to legitimately beat up the Chief Strategist are rare, so they treated it as a freebie and took it all. Even the usually well-behaved Chōjirō Sasakibe excitedly joined the brawl.

"Back then, you bullied me terribly! You made a false report through our righteous channels!" Sakurane Saizo laughed loudly.

"Yamete!!!!"

Chapter 159: Vanish, Guiramo

Although Yamabuki Chidori's strength surpassed that of the Captain, it was impossible for her to face a group attack from so many Captain at the same time. After a brief resistance, she quickly pinned them to the ground and gave them a sound beating.

"You bunch of bastards, Sasakibe, why are you joining in hitting me? I've always been so good to you, have you lost your conscience?" Yamabuki Chidori yelled.

Chōjirō Sasakibe looked apologetic, but his hands didn't slow down at all, thrusting out dozens of swords in succession. "Brother Yamabuki, didn't you say that fighting strong opponents can improve your strength? You should be the strongest besides the Captain Commander, right?"

Just as Yamabuki Chidori was about to take down Chōjirō Sasakibe, a cloud of white mist suddenly enveloped him.

"Is this Kiri ni Kagami? Hane Hane Chiyo!!!" Yamabuki Chidori roared.

"Opportunities to beat up a pervert like you legitimately are rare, how could I possibly miss them?" Hane Hane Chiyo waved her small Zanpakuto.

Although the difference in their strength was huge, it was enough to affect Yamabuki Chidori for a moment.

In a battle between masters, a slight mistake can lead to a world of difference!

Moreover, those besieging Yamabuki Chidori were all top-tier fighters in the Soul Society. The moment her vision was blocked, attacks came from all directions like a storm. No matter how powerful Yamabuki Chidori was, she couldn't possibly withstand the attacks of so many top-tier fighters at the same time.

He held on for only a moment before being knocked to the ground!

Finally, Zendouji Yuuhin used the move "Mount Tai Nebula Crash", her 400-pound body was like a mountain, and she was pressed down on Yamabuki Chidori, making Yamabuki Chidori bark like a dog!

"You... cough cough cough... you..."

After giving Yamabuki Chidori a good beating, the Captain were finally happy and began to find their opponents to spar with.

Moreover, as mentioned before, they didn't have to worry about damaging the Seireitei here, so they didn't hold back during the battle and had a great time fighting.

Only Shijima Chiru sat helplessly to the side, wondering how all her teammates could be so strong.

He felt he was the worst of all the Captain.

It's as if anyone could hang him up and beat him up.

The biggest concern when you're with these monsters is that you're not strong enough and could be eliminated by them at any time.

Yamabuki Chidori had already promised Chōjirō Sasakibe that she would teach him how to use Bankai after returning from Hueco Mundo.

"You little brat, stand at attention! You were really ruthless just now! Humph!" Yamabuki Chidori glared at him coldly. Chōjirō Sasakibe had indeed enjoyed the beating, but the momentary pleasure was followed by a disastrous aftermath.

"Didn't you just say it yourself? The fastest way to become stronger is to fight against the strong. Come on, let's have a one-on-one fight! No calling anyone!" Yamabuki Chidori was clearly settling a personal score. Chōjirō Sasakibe turned to the Captain Commander with a bitter expression, only to find the Captain Commander sitting there happily drinking tea, as if he hadn't seen what was happening.

"Calling the Captain Commander won't do any good! Kid, come here!" Yamabuki Chidori grabbed Chōjirō Sasakibe and gave him a good beating.

Then I started teaching him how to use Bankai.

"There are two crucial conditions for learning Bankai. First, your Reiatsu must reach a certain level, otherwise your Reiatsu won't be Reiatsu. Second, you must have a certain communication with your Zanpakuto and have it tell you the name of the Bankai. Once you complete these two points, you've mastered Bankai," Yamabuki Chidori said.

Although this kid was heartless, Yamabuki Chidori, as the eldest brother, couldn't be unjust, so he still told the kid how to train for Bankai and then told him to practice on his own.

The master leads you through the door, but the practice is up to you.

Whether he can learn Bankai or not depends on the kid himself.

At this moment, Yamabuki Chidori also noticed that Shijima Chiru was standing next to her with a wry smile, at a loss for what to do.

"Why don't you join in with everyone? Why are you so antisocial?" Yamabuki Chidori wanted to say a few sarcastic remarks to the other party. When they were fighting earlier, this kid deliberately used dirty tricks from behind, almost causing my son and grandson to be in danger!

No wonder he came from an assassin background.

Shijima Chiru scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said, "I feel like everyone is too strong. If it were a head-on fight, I probably couldn't beat any of them. After all, my previous profession was an assassin, which isn't suited for direct confrontation."

That's right!

He was an assassin by trade, skilled at lurking in the shadows, suddenly appearing to stab someone in the back, and then making a graceful exit.
