"A flame at 6000 degrees Celsius can evaporate any liquid, so how could it possibly be extinguished?"
"Did the captain show mercy?"
"I'm afraid not."
"The captain also looked shocked."
"When did he awaken his Zanpakuto?"
Nimaiya Wangyue bent down, scooped up the Yellow Spring Water flowing on the ground, and whispered, "This water seems to be constantly draining my spiritual power."
Hyōsuke Ichibei was stunned when he heard this, and he also bent down and placed his hand into the underworld.
As the terrifying chill assaulted his body, he suddenly realized that the spiritual energy within him was decreasing.
Hyobu Ichibei's pupils swayed violently.
This is unusual!
He had thought that the Zanpakuto's ability was only to counter Ryujin Jakka, but he didn't expect it to counter spirits themselves even more.
"Yomi... In a sense, the true name of this Zanpakuto is very ominous."
Hyobu Ichibei whispered.
Everyone present heard Chu Yang's roar, so they took "Yellow Springs" as the true name of the Zanpakuto, unaware that it was just one of Fengdu's abilities.
If they knew, their expressions would probably be even more interesting.
Hyosube Ichibei frowned, for the more ancient the Grim Reaper, the more reverent he was of ancient legends.
No one can be sure what the world was like before the Spirit King created the Three Realms.
Even today, beyond the Three Realms, there exists Hell.
"I wonder what the Spirit King's attitude will be when he finds out about this."
Wang Yue of the Two-Piece House never took his eyes off the black blade of the [Fengdu] sword, and a trace of inappropriate greed even welled up in his heart.
This is a special Zanpakuto, very suitable for collection...
Taking a deep breath, Nimaiya Oetsu's eyes cleared.
As a death god who has lived for countless years, his greed only lasted for a moment before he quickly regained his senses.
"Now that you know the true name of your Zanpakuto, shouldn't we head back?"
"Lord Ling cannot be left unguarded."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, having at some point sheathed Ryujin Jakka and replaced it with a cane, slowly walked up to the two of them, his body hunched over, reverting to his usual old-man appearance.
Hyōnobu Ichibei and Nimaiya Oetsu exchanged a glance.
Old man Yamamoto is giving you the order to leave.
The strongest Grim Reaper in a thousand years was thoroughly drenched by a mere brat; anyone would feel embarrassed in that situation.
but.
No one would think that Chu Yang is stronger than Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.
The strongest Grim Reaper in a thousand years—that's not just a figure of speech.
Having achieved their goal, the two could no longer linger; the stability of the Spirit King Palace was more important than anything else.
Before leaving, Nimaiya Oetsu gave [Tianque] a meaningful look.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it?"
He always felt that the two Zanpakuto had their own true names, but upon closer examination, he found them quite astonishing.
Dual swords are rare and can still be seen, but for one person to awaken two Zanpakuto is something that has never been seen before.
After confirming that the two had disappeared, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni walked up to Chu Yang, remained silent for a long time, and his eyes lingered on the other man.
"The position of captain of the Fifth Division has been vacant for a while, so you will take over next."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's words surprised the captains present once again.
Under normal circumstances, there are three ways to become Captain Grim Reaper.
First, pass the captain's exam in the presence of three captains, including the chief captain.
Second, it requires a joint recommendation from the six team leaders, and then approval from three of the remaining six team leaders.
Third, in the presence of two hundred members of the Death Slayer Corps, challenge the incumbent captain, and if you win, you can succeed him as the new captain.
The position of the First Division Captain, also known as the Commander-in-Chief, is somewhat special, as it requires the approval of the Central 46.
In the history of Soul Society, there has never been a situation where Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni made the decision on his own.
but.
Even if Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni hadn't said those words, having witnessed the battle just now, the captains acknowledged that Chu Yang's combat strength was indeed at the captain level.
"The Fifth Division... it just so happens to be the division where Aizen served. The Captain-Commander's decision is really interesting..."
The same feeling arose in everyone's hearts.
The positions of Gin Ichimaru, captain of the third division, and Kaname Tosen, captain of the ninth division, were also vacant, but Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto appointed Chu Yang as captain of the fifth division.
Based solely on Chu Yang's combat abilities just now, the Third Division, which is responsible for support missions, would actually be a better fit for him.
Since the captain had made the decision, the other captains could only agree and congratulate Chu Yang.
The matter was considered closed. Thanks to Ichibei Hyosube's barrier, apart from the captain and some vice-captains, the other Shinigami were unaware of what had happened that night.
On the way back, Chu Yang was taken to another residence, a separate courtyard.
Now that he is the captain of the Grim Reaper team, it is no longer appropriate for him to share a dormitory with other rookie Grim Reapers.
Chu Yang stood in the courtyard, and Fengdu and Tianque seemed to be sentient, surrounding him.
“Yellow Spring…”
"Legend has it that to get to Fengdu, one must first pass through the Gate of Hell, the Road to the Underworld, the Bridge of Helplessness, and the Terrace of Longing for Home."
"If the abilities are one-to-one, apart from the Yomi that was just used, the Zanpakuto should have three other abilities."
"The four abilities combined should constitute the complete initial state of Fengdu."
"What about Bankai?"
"Based on the current situation, what should we do?"
As he pondered, Chu Yang turned his gaze to [Tianque]. He had a general idea of [Fengdu]'s abilities, but he was completely baffled by this Zanpakuto.
The next day.
On his first day in office, Chu Yang caused an uproar among all the members of the Thirteenth Guardian Squad.
Especially the Grim Reaper, a new graduate who graduated at the same time as Chu Yang.
Such a rapid promotion rate is unprecedented since the establishment of the Gotei 13.
Although they didn't know why Chu Yang was promoted to captain out of turn, they couldn't accept his position at all.
There are many who disagree!
In this regard.
Chu Yang also displayed an extremely tough attitude.
"According to the rules, as long as you challenge the current captain in front of two hundred Grim Reaper members and win, you can succeed him as the new captain."
"I'm right here. Anyone among you who wants to be the captain is welcome to challenge me!"
"You are responsible for your own life and death!"
Chapter 112. An unattainable swordsmanship, the first clash with Saitama!
112.
The news that Chu Yang had set up a ring to accept challenges from his teammates quickly spread throughout the entire Seireitei.
"The simplest and most effective method."
Kyoraku Shunsui, who was having tea with his friend Ukitake Jushiro, commented with a smile.
"The premise is based on one's own strong strength." Jushiro Ukitake nodded, his expression somewhat complicated. He had never had any goodwill towards this new Shinigami.
From certain angles, the other person bears a striking resemblance to Aizen…
"With his ability, it's only a matter of time before he earns the respect of his teammates, but I think there might be an unexpected disruptor today."
Kyoraku Shunsui suddenly stood up, seemingly intending to leave.
"where are you going?"
Jushiro Ukitake asked in surprise.
"Let's watch the show!"
Kyoraku Shunsui smiled and hurriedly left, wearing a straw hat.
