Fourth Division Barracks, Wang Xun sat cross-legged on his bed, the system panel appearing before him.

Compared to before, his Spiritual Might has been steadily increasing, gradually approaching the Captain-level.
Under Kendō 'Unohana hellish sparring, his kendo skills have also improved rapidly, and in terms of technique alone, he has surpassed that of an ordinary captain.
Wang Xun's feelings were particularly pronounced during his sparring session with Unohana.
He could increasingly sense that Unohana's level of seriousness was gradually increasing.
He began to be truly regarded as a rival by Unohana.
Kidō's progress was equally rapid, steadily reaching the captain's level.
Hollowfication gained experience rapidly thanks to the experimental resources of Aizen and Urahara.
His strength is already considerable; it's all the result of solid, step-by-step accumulation.
Wang Xun withdrew his gaze, his fingertips Zanpakuto at his waist, his eyes calm.
Stay calm.
This is his only principle at present.
He established himself in the Fourth Division and improved his Kendō under the guidance of Unohana.
He trains in Kidō under Aizen's guidance and occasionally seeks out Kisuke Urahara to gain some Hollowfication experience.
They firmly grasped all the strength they could acquire, the fragments they could absorb, and the connections they could utilize.
Life is getting better and better.
As for the lurking and malicious intent hidden in the shadows, they were merely stepping stones on his path to the top.
The Sōkyoku Pole Underground Cavern has become Wang Xun and Unohana's exclusive training ground for swordsmanship since their last visit.
The spirit ore embedded in his head shone brightly, and the dense knife marks on the stone wall bore witness to every duel.
Unohana was dressed in a light sword-fighting outfit, her long hair unbound and falling over her shoulders.
During these days of sparring, Unohana no longer deliberately suppressed her power; the Reiatsu belonging to the First Kenpachi surged forth like a tidal wave.
Each strike carried a deadly intent that struck straight to the soul, yet it was precise and cautious.
Since what happened last time, Unohana seems to have become much more cautious.
She was pushing Wang Xun to his limits, but she was also extremely careful about his life.
The Zanpakuto clashed violently, and the ground beneath Wang Xun's feet collapsed with a deafening roar. Despite the numbness in his arms, he managed to steady himself.
With a backhand slash, the blade grazed past Unohana.
A hint of amazement flashed in Unohana's eyes. She lightly turned her blade, parried the attack, and Shunpo closed in.
With her Zanpakuto against Wang Xun's neck, her tone was calm yet tinged with approval.
"The transitions between moves have become even faster; the true essence of the Yachiru is growing stronger in your sword."
Wang Xun, catching his breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"It's all thanks to the captain's guidance."
There's no need to be modest.
Unohana Zanpakuto, and the killing intent around her slowly subsided.
"With your current Kendō, even an ordinary captain would find it difficult to say that they can surpass you in skill."
Wang Xun's heart stirred slightly.
This is the first time Unohana has given such a clear evaluation.
He looked up at Unohana, who was gazing at the ore at the top of the hollow, her eyes distant.
It was as if she was recalling something from a long time ago, or perhaps she was anticipating what Wang Xun look like in the future.
She paused, then gently tapped Wang Xun's shoulder with the back of her Zanpakuto.
"I can tell what you and Kisuke Urahara are up to in the shadows. If you need my help, just let me know."
"I see."
Wang Xun nodded, a slight smile appearing on his face.
After leaving the Sōkyoku Void with Unohana, Wang Xun went straight to Aizen's secret laboratory at night.
In the underground laboratory, the Hōgyoku floats in the center of the machine, emitting a faint blue light.
Kaname Tōsen stood to one side, silently organizing the documents. Compared to his previous dejected state, he had regained some composure.
Aizen, dressed in white, was bent over recording experimental data, his gentle profile appearing even more focused in the dim light.
Hearing footsteps, Aizen looked up at Wang Xun and nodded slightly.
After receiving the experimental plan from Aizen, Wang Xun began to participate in the experiment of soul Hollowfication.
Since Aizen used the Hōgyoku to test Wang Xun last time, he has not allowed the Hōgyoku Aizen have direct contact with Wang Xun again.
I wonder if they discovered something.
Wang Xun stood in front of the experimental table, working with Aizen to design the experimental plan.
At that moment, he thought of what had happened before, stemming from the malice that Tsunayashiro Tokinada had shown him.
Let's see if Aizen can do anything to help him.
With that thought in mind, Wang Xun spoke softly.
"Lieutenant Aizen, someone has been secretly watching me at the Tsunayashiro Clan."
"What suggestions do you have?"
Aizen's hands continued moving, his voice calm.
"What, you want me to help you?"
"If you could help me with this, that would be great."
Aizen did not reply immediately, but quietly observed the experimental plan.
After a moment, Aizen seemed to remember something and replied in a deep voice.
"I will keep an eye on things Tsunayashiro Clan, and you should pay close attention to the experiments."
While cooperating with the experiment, Wang Xun spoke softly.
"Thank you for your trouble, Vice Captain."
Aizen's pen continued to move, his tone remaining gentle.
"It's nothing."
Wang Xun understood.
Aizen's willingness to do him a favor in response to his request was also a way of further winning him over.
I'll take care of your enemies and solve your problems. You just need to be my trusted confidant and work for me.
"Thank you, Vice Captain."
Wang Xun in thanks, his posture respectful, yet his eyes were clear and lucid.
The experiment came to an end, and Wang Xun returned to the Fourth Division the following morning.
As soon as I entered, I heard several young team members huddled together, whispering and talking, their voices full of curiosity and amazement.
"The senior who went to teach at the Shin'ō Academy is back! Did you hear? Another extraordinary new student has arrived at the Spiritual Arts Academy!"
"Really? There was one last year, and I heard his Spiritual Might was terrifyingly high. Is he here again this year?"
"Yes, I heard he's very young, from Rukongai, and has no noble background whatsoever, which is truly rare."
Upon hearing this news, Wang Xun paused slightly.
Born in Rukongai, extremely young, yet possessing exceptionally high Spiritual Might.
A name instantly popped into my mind.
Gin Ichimaru.
Unexpectedly, Gin Ichimaru entered the Shin'ō Academy so quickly.
It takes place several years earlier than in the original story.
A hint of amusement flashed in Wang Xun's eyes.
interesting.
Since we've come across this, why not go and take a look?
He turned and walked toward the captain's room, where Unohana was sitting at the tea table organizing documents.
Seeing Wang Xun enter, she looked up and asked.
"Is something the matter?"
"Team leader."
Wang Xun bowed respectfully.
"I've heard that new students have enrolled at the Shin'ō Academy, and I'd like to apply to go there and teach a day's Kaidō course."
Unohana put down her pen, looked at him, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, but she didn't ask anything, only nodded gently.
"Granted."
"Thank you, Captain."
Wang Xun bowed and withdrew, already having made his plans.
