The Unforgiven in Shinigami, Chapter 5: The kids are old enough to run errands, yet still not married? Winter solstice, spring arrives, and summer returns; the seasons cycle, and three years have quietly passed.
The Soul Society, which had once been in extreme chaos, was finally able to return to normal life.
The First Division's barracks, the captain's meeting room.
First Division Vice-Captain Ichigo Kurosaki voice.
Last year, due to his Okikiba age and the heavy workload behind the scenes at the Wandenreich, he was forced to retire early due to mental fatigue.
Even if Ichigo Kurosaki didn't want to, he had no choice but to step up.
Captain-Commander Shiraishi stepped to the front of the stage, still wearing a nonchalant smile, and said:
Shiraishi glanced around the conference room; the captains and vice-captains of each team were present, and the conference room, rebuilt after the war, looked brand new.
The fresh scent of wood wafts through the air, filling the room with a pleasant fragrance.
Ichigo Kurosaki was already used to this guy shifting the blame. He flipped through a thick stack of documents and began to report on the reconstruction progress.
As Shiraishi listened attentively to his report, he reflected on the events of the past three years.
The area most severely damaged in the District 26 was his First Division, almost entirely due to the Reishi phenomenon caused by his Bankai.
Although it was out of necessity to wait for Uryū Ishida's arrival, the fact remains that all the buildings in the area were damaged.
All areas have been affected by Reishi to varying degrees, so it's fortunate that there were no casualties.
After the battle, due to the extreme scarcity of supplies and manpower, morale was low, and criminals took the opportunity to cause trouble.
Shiraishi was forced to borrow 100,000 Arrancar from Hueco Mundo to mobilize manpower and suppress criminals. He was so busy that he slept in the office all day and didn't have much time to take care of his wife and children.
This allowed the reconstruction work to proceed quickly.
Today, the Seireitei has been completely transformed.
Ichigo Kurosaki stopped his long speech and stepped back.
Shiraishi crossed his arms and said with a smile:
Urged on by Shiraishi, the Thirteenth Division Renji Abarai and the 6th Division Lieutenant Rukia Kuchiki walked out looking nervous.
Renji Abarai tightened his collar, facing the scrutinizing gazes of the captains and vice-captains. His face flushed even more, but he still straightened his chest and said:
Rukia a little helpless. Where had all those bold words from last night gone?
Renji Abarai coughed again, then mustered his courage and said, " Rukia and I are getting married!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's reaction was not to look at Renji Abarai, but to turn their attention to Byakuya Kuchiki, the captain of the 6th Division.
He stood in line, his expression unchanged, silent, as always, showing no reaction.
Applause erupted, and Gin Ichimaru, standing next to Kenpachi Zaraki, said:
Kenpachi Zaraki remarked that he almost died during his battle with the Soul King's left hand, but thanks to Orihime Inoue's constant use of her abilities to resist the Soul King's Left Hand's corruption, he was able to save his life.
But the post-war period was so damn boring, it made him really want to assassinate the Captain-Commander, or if that didn't work, fighting Ichigo Kurosaki wouldn't be bad either.
Shiraishi offered an answer: the war of the Wandenreich was short but brutal, but people cannot always dwell on the past; they must look forward.
Retsu Unohana chimed in with a smile:
Their child is old enough to run errands, and they're still not married? Is that acceptable?
Shiraishi blinked and glanced around.
All eyes fell on him.
Nine o'clock in the morning, Shin'ō Academy.
The fourth-year students, who had just finished their summer vacation, all gathered in the large auditorium that could accommodate all the students in the college.
Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, leaning on his cane, looked at the students and continued, "When I founded the Shin'ō Academy, it was initially a six-year program, but it was implemented according to the Shinigami internship system established two years ago."
After the summer of your third year, you will be assigned to various Gotei 13 for internships, gaining practical experience as Shinigami in real-world environments.
The Shinigami Training Program is a new system designed to allow the Gotei 13 is already facing a shortage of personnel, to maintain its operational functions.
Trainee members attend classes at the Spiritual Arts Academy in the morning, and are assigned to various teams in the afternoon to assist with practical work.
Before this system was introduced, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto had planned to follow the usual procedure and have the students assigned to teams only after they graduated from the academy.
Furthermore, during their first year, they would intern with senior team members and learn the work that Shinigami need to handle.
The current Shinigami internship system allows students to complete their internships during their studies.
In the post-war work sites, one could often hear things like...
Shiraishi also took on too much work dealing with these kinds of cries of grief, so he decided to mobilize people for the emergency.
This system is a special emergency response method, and it is also a good thing for the students. They may not necessarily approve of Shinigami, but the Wandenreich has awakened most of them.
If Shinigami is appointed, the next one will only be worse; it's better to maintain the Shinigami's regime.
Therefore, they need strength.
Hearing Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's introduction caused a stir and excitement among the students.
Among the first batch of graduates from the newly established Shin'ō Academy, Ichigo Kurosaki is undoubtedly the most legendary.
Invited to the stage by Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, Ichigo Kurosaki surveyed the auditorium with a lifeless, corporate-weary face.
The eyes of the capable third-year students present lit up when they saw Ichigo Kurosaki appear.
Ichigo Kurosaki lowered his eyelids, took a quiet breath, and was forced to begin his speech.
