Chapter 779: Chapter 621: The Assailant! Emerald Cero!
The life of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads is quite interesting.
As the Vice Captain of Squad 5, Uehara Naraku also accompanied Aizen to several meetings, garnering a lot of attention due to his status.
During this period, the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads added many new members, leading to some personnel changes.
First, Ichimaru Gin became the Captain of Squad 3; secondly, Kuchiki Byakuya joined the 6th Squad and was appointed as the captain.
In comparison...
Uehara Naraku, whose status as the patriarch is more significant than Kuchiki Byakuya’s, only serving as a vice captain seems a bit inappropriate, which also poses a troublesome issue for Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni.
Aside from that...
The 10th Squad also welcomed a newcomer.
Hitsugaya Toshiro, a newcomer with inherently strong spiritual pressure.
Guardian Court Thirteen Squads General Meeting Room.
The Captain General of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads, Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni, glanced around at all the captains and vice captains present, slowly lowered his head, closed his eyes, and spoke in a deep voice: "Recently discovered, Hollows have become increasingly active... whether in the Mortal World or the Soul Society, more and more Hollows are appearing..."
"It seems that way..."
The current Captain of Squad 8, Kyoraku Shunsui, spoke leisurely from the first seat on the left at the meeting table: "It should be in recent times, probably no more than fifty years, Hollows have become increasingly active, especially recently they have been more intensified..."
This current Captain of Squad 8, Kyoraku Shunsui, naturally seems somewhat laid-back, and when he speaks, it feels as though nothing worries him.
Kyoraku Shunsui’s character...
Is a bit like Admiral Kizaru from the Pirate World.
It’s hard to imagine that the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads would let such a captain be responsible for intelligence work; wouldn’t such a captain delay things too much?
Compared to the previous captain Yakushi Kabuto, after Kyoraku Shunsui took over Squad 8, the squad’s intelligence work almost visibly fell into decline, and within just over two hundred years it has fallen into becoming a lazy squad in the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads...
After all, not everyone is Yakushi Kabuto.
Not everyone values intelligence work as Yakushi Kabuto does, given his ninja background.
So far, the intelligence work of Squad 8 relies almost entirely on the foundations laid by Yakushi Kabuto during his tenure as captain, and Kyoraku Shunsui feels somewhat overextended.
Just as a captain...
Kyoraku Shunsui’s combat power is definitely sufficient.
Moreover, he is also one of Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni’s disciples.
"Shunsui."
Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni’s brows furrowed slightly, displeased as he looked at this disciple, speaking in a gruff voice: "Is there no more detailed intelligence? What about your intelligence analysis?"
"Didn’t I put them all on your desk?"
Kyoraku Shunsui adjusted his cap on his head and lifted it, speaking leisurely: "It’s just some Hollow activities, it doesn’t seem to change much, they’ve all been dealt with... no need to deliberately analyze these things, right?"
"..."
Yamamoto Shigekuni could only shake his head helplessly.
At this moment, the old man again somewhat misses Yakushi Kabuto who has joined the Zero Squad.
After all, during Yakushi Kabuto’s tenure, not only did he provide enough intelligence, but also intelligence analysis and corresponding strategies.
During Yakushi Kabuto’s tenure, battles between Shinigami and Hollows never fell behind, with each troublesome Hollow specially marked, made into booklets, and distributed to the Shinigami.
Originally, Yakushi Kabuto even issued some wanted notices, calling for individuals with strong spiritual power in the Mortal World and Soul Society to jointly deal with these troublesome Hollows...
During that time...
There was real peace between the Soul Society and the Mortal World!
The losses of the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads were at the lowest point in history.
Unfortunately, Yakushi Kabuto later joined the Zero Squad, and then the Shinigami Quincy incident occurred, rendering the wanted notices useless.
"I’ve encountered some troublesome guys over here..."
Captain of Squad 10, Shiba Ishin, leaned back in his chair, showing a rare serious look: "The spiritual pressure of the recently appeared Hollows is getting stronger, it feels like... they’re evolving..."
"Haven’t they always been evolving?"
Captain of Squad 12, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, hooked his lips, chuckled lightly, and said: "Thousands of years ago, data showed Hollows and deceased souls were indistinguishable... but later more Hollows appeared, we slowly categorized them into levels..."
"This feeling is different..."
Shiba Ishin shook his head, abandoning his usual unseriousness and solemnly said: "If this continues, it feels like soon Hollows will appear that overturn our understanding..."
"Then just kill them."
Captain of Squad 11, Zaraki Kenpachi, grinned with a cold smile: "Their power is still too weak now! It’d be better if they get even stronger!"
"Ken!"
Kusajishi Yachiru placed her hand on Zaraki Kenpachi’s shoulder, giggling and saying: "Don’t always be so aggressive! There are many lovely people here!"
At this point, Kusajishi Yachiru’s gaze fell on Uehara Naraku, waving at him: "Dean Kabuto told us, when you join the Guardian Court Thirteen Squads, we should give you a good welcome!"
This care...
Feels more like something non-serious!
"Hey..."
Zaraki Kenpachi followed Kusajishi Yachiru’s gaze towards Uehara Naraku, sneering: "Yachiru, don’t say such misleading things to him... Kabuto isn’t worth trusting... but I do owe him quite a few favors..."
