First Division, Captain's Office.
Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto sat opposite Jūshirō Ukitake, his deep and sharp gaze seeming to penetrate Jūshirō Ukitake's body and see through everything.
His voice was calm as he slowly asked, "So, Jūshirō, you have fully recovered?"
Jūshirō Ukitake met Yamamoto's gaze, nodding without hesitation and answering with a firm tone:
"Teacher, Deputy Director Kurotsuchi Mayuri has already conducted a detailed examination for me, and there are indeed no problems with my body."
Yamamoto nodded slightly, indicating understanding, but the doubt in his eyes had not completely dissipated.
At this moment, Kyōraku Shunsui, who was at the side, interjected:
"Jūshirō, are you really sure you're fine? Do you want your senior brother to personally check you again?"
As he spoke, he reached out as if to touch Jūshirō Ukitake, seemingly wanting to verify if he was truly well.
Seeing this, Jūshirō Ukitake quickly reached out to stop Kyōraku Shunsui's movement, saying somewhat helplessly:
"Shunsui, stop messing around. What kind of behavior is this, pulling and tugging in public?"
A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face; after all, this was the Captain's Office, and such actions were truly undignified.
Yamamoto, on the other hand, looked at these two mischievous disciples with a look of disdain, sighing inwardly.
It was as if he was saying, how did I never notice they were like this before?
"Jūshirō, how do you feel now?"
Compared to Kyōraku Shunsui's boisterousness, Yamamoto's inquiry was more composed and reserved, but he was actually very concerned about Jūshirō Ukitake's current condition.
Hearing their teacher's question, the two, who had been bickering as if briefly returned to their youth, stopped their actions.
Jūshirō Ukitake felt Yamamoto's concern, and his heart warmed.
He took a deep breath, then seriously replied:
"Teacher, I feel very good now. There's no discomfort in my body; it's just a bit weak from the recent treatment."
"According to Deputy Director Kurotsuchi Mayuri's opinion, I should be able to recover to a normal state after about half a month of recuperation."
At this point, Jūshirō Ukitake couldn't help but glance at Aozaki Reiji, who was drinking tea beside Yamamoto.
Thanks to this junior brother, he could live like a normal person.
......
The next few days passed peacefully.
Every day was a simple life spent with his lover, occasionally taking some free time to ask Urahara Kisuke about the progress of game development.
Although such a life was somewhat monotonous, it was quite fulfilling.
As for the Squad affairs, they were naturally all handed over to Ichimaru Gin to handle.
Aozaki Reiji valued this young genius very much, so he specifically let him adapt to the pace of life after becoming a Captain in advance.
—Aozaki Reiji used this to trick Ichimaru Gin.
Whether Ichimaru Gin believed it or not was unknown, but Aozaki Reiji himself believed it.
Until one day, in the underground training ground occupied by Aozaki Reiji, the atmosphere became somewhat tense.
"Are you ready?"
Aozaki Reiji stared intently at Unohana, who was warming up.
They were about to begin the Hollowfication experiment.
In fact, the Hollowfication process for all the women was nearing completion.
Even Shiba Kūkaku, who wasn't fond of training, had successfully raised her Reiatsu to Vice-Captain level and smoothly completed the experiment under Aozaki Reiji's tireless efforts.
The Seireitei's resistance to Hollowfication power, strictly speaking, was actually more due to political considerations.
There weren't many people who truly disapproved of this power from the bottom of their hearts.
The only one who was a bit troublesome among the women was Kotetsu Isane.
This girl was usually too timid and cowardly, even waking up from nightmares about disliked fish cakes, so she truly didn't dare to violate the Seireitei's prohibition.
But facing Aozaki Reiji and Unohana, the two people she admired most, under the persuasion from both sides, she finally mustered her courage.
However, none of this mattered, because today's true protagonist was Unohana.
In fact, Unohana had not conducted the Hollowfication experiment before, not because Aozaki Reiji was worried about not being able to defeat her.
What truly worried Aozaki Reiji was, If this strong woman went insane after Hollowfication, her attacks might lose the restriction of technique, causing unpredictable consequences.
As a strong person with One Level Reiatsu in her normal state, even a casual blow from Unohana would be enough to cause a big commotion.
Not to mention after Hollowfication, all her abilities would be greatly enhanced.
Thinking of this, Aozaki Reiji's already dark and deep eyes now flickered with a faint light.
Transparent Reiatsu Walls quickly combined, instantly surrounding the entire space they were in.
Super Pressure Barrier!
"Look, look, it's about to begin."
Yoruichi excitedly lay on the edge of the hot spring, waving her hands and shouting excitedly:
"I missed their last fight, I can't miss it this time."
"Do you need to be so excited?"
Shiba Kūkaku gently wrapped her arms around Yoruichi's slender waist from behind, smiling softly:
"Reiji will definitely win. Even Bankai can't beat him, so simple Hollowfication is even more impossible."
At the same time, looking at the Shinigami sisters in the hot spring, Shiba Kūkaku muttered to herself.
She now strongly suspected that the reason Aozaki Reiji let her return to the Seireitei was because he thought it would be easier to handle things if they were closer.
Yoruichi smiled while grabbing her fluffy hair and said:
"I already know the outcome, but it should still be very interesting when they fight, right?"
"I don't spar withReijiuch anymore. Every time we fight, he holds back, and it's very frustrating."
"That's because you're not working hard enough." Shiba Kūkaku's lips curved slightly upward, revealing a sly smile, "Look how fast I'm improving? I'm almost at Second Class Reiatsu."
"That's because your original strength wasn't good, so you have a lot of room for improvement. I'm almost at Second Class Reiatsu, how can I be the same as you?"
Yoruichi rolled her eyes at Shiba Kūkaku in annoyance.
"I'm ready... Let's begin!"
Unohana took a deep breath, then slowly closed her eyes, allowing her mind to completely relax.
Aozaki Reiji stepped forward, gently pinched her chin, and kissed her soft lips.
Next was the familiar process.
Reiatsu surged, and white Reiatsu condensed into a Hollow Mask on her face, while her body slowly began to show monstrous characteristics.
Unlike Ryūsui Izumo, who transformed into a tall monster.
She basically maintained her human form, only with a white mask on her face that resembled a murderous demon.
Her skin became paler, but her figure remained beautiful.
Aozaki Reiji admired her for a moment, then Unohana suddenly raised her head.
Dangerous Reiatsu poured out, impacting the Super Pressure Barrier but failing to cause any ripples.
Aozaki Reiji licked his lips, a smile rising at the corner of his mouth, seemingly provoking the murderous demon.
