Chapter 32: Chapter 032: The Gears Of Destiny Begin To Turn
Hearing Hell Butterfly convey the words of the head-captain, Mazuru looked calm.
Another sentence came to mind.
"The gears of fate are turning slowly..."
In the plot of the original book, there is one event that affects the fate of many people, and that event is the accident of many captains defecting from the Soul Society 110 years before the plot begins. It was nine years after Urahara Kisuke got promoted to the captain of the Twelfth Division.
Although many Shinigami of Gotei 13 Division are still guessing who the new captain of the Twelfth Division is and whether the former Vice-captain Sarugaki Hiyori was promoted or not, but Mazuru knows that the person who passed the captain's assessment three days ago is none other than Kisuke who looks shy and acts low key.
"Mazuru, let's go!"
After the Hell Butterfly delivered the message, Jushiro slowly got up and said to Mazuru.
Mazuru nodded, followed Jushiro and left the captain's room of Thirteenth Division.
On their way to Seireitei, the two happened to meet Shunsui and his Vice-captain Lisa.
"Yo! Jushiro, Brother Mazuru, you came early." Shunsui greeted the two of them.
"It's not as early as Captain Shunsui." Mazuru said with a smile.
Shunsui smiled lightly, noncommittal.
A group of four people, all old friends, soon arrived at the door of the First Division.
As a result, as soon as they entered, they heard the voice of the captain of the Fifth Division, Hirako Shinji, who seemed to be talking about the captain of the Eleventh Division.
The Eleventh Division is a battle team, and the captain's name is "Kenpachi". Their captain succession ceremony is extremely simple and rude. As long as you are strong enough to defeat the contemporary Kenpachi, you are the new Kenpachi and the new captain.
The contemporary Kenpachi Kiganjo became the captain of the Eleventh Division by defeating the previous generation Kenpachi. Unfortunately, this person has a tyrannical personality, and his reputation in the Gotei 13 is not very good, just because of the special succession ceremony of the Eleventh Division, he became the captain, Shinji can only slander a few words in private
After Shinji finished slandering, Shunsui's teasing voice sounded truthfully, "It's not good to speak ill of people behind their backs."
As soon as Shinji turned around, he saw Shunsui and four people walking in, "Mr. Jushiro, long time no see. Mr. Shunsui came early today."
Shunsui adjusted his bamboo hat, "What are you talking about, I'm always the first to arrive."
The Vice-captain Lisa stepped forward and said shamelessly, "I kicked his ass early today and arrested him."
Shunsui's face immediately collapsed, "Don't mention my embarrassing things in front of other captains."
While the two were fighting with each other, Mazuru also quietly glanced at Aizen who was following Shinji, and the two looked at each other without exchanging greetings, everything was kept in silence.
Several people walked to the meeting room of the First Division, Shinji suddenly sighed, "Over the years, the captains seem to be constantly changing. Is it really okay for the Gotei 13 to go on like this?"
"There will always be a time for replacement in everything. We just happened to encounter that kind of situation now. Now that I think about it, it was the same situation more than a hundred years ago. The captains of the various squads changed frequently, but fortunately there was no bad effect in the end for what happened." Shunsui also sighed.
"But if you think about it carefully." Shunsui stretched out his right hand suddenly, "The only ones who have served as the captain for more than a hundred years are me, Jushiro, and old man Yama, right?"
After finishing speaking, Shunsui turned his head and smiled at Jushiro for confirmation.
"It's not just us, but also Captain Unohana." Jushiro reminded, looking at Shunsui.
"Oh, yes, if you accidentally forget about her, you will witness the horror of her just like old man Yama said."
"What horror?" Hearing the sudden questioning voice from behind, although the tone was as gentle as ever, Shunsui and Jushiro were still startled into a cold sweat.
"Captain Unohana!" Mazuru and several other vice-captains greeted Unohana Retsu one after another.
Shinji looked at the person behind Unohana, and asked with some doubts, "Who is this?"
"He is the new vice-captain of our Fourth Division, Seinosuke Yamada."
Unohana introduced with a single sentence.
As she said that, she didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly looked at Mazuru in the crowd, "Speaking of that, if Vice-captain Mazuru hadn't joined the Thirteenth Division back then, he would be in our Fourth Division now and I am afraid that he would have become the vice-captain."
Saying this, she couldn't help but glance at Shunsui again.
Shunsui felt very uncomfortable for a while. He was the one who cut Mazuru from the Fourth Division to the Thirteenth Division. Jushiro on the side also felt the embarrassment of his friend and wanted to resolve it, but in the end he didn't know what to say.
After all, he has a vested interest. If Shunsui hadn't cut Mazuru off from the Fourth Division, Mazuru wouldn't have become his vice-captain.
Fortunately, Unohana spared Shunsui's nonsense in the end, and said softly, "The captain of Third Division is retiring, and the captain Twelfth Division got promoted. They didn't die in the line of duty. They all completed their duty peacefully, isn't this already very good?"
Although they lamented the frequent change of captains before, but after Unohana said so, everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Compared with the frequent changes of captains over a hundred years ago, this peaceful change is undoubtedly better now.
While everyone was talking, the captains and deputy captains of the other squads also arrived one after another.
Captain Kuchiki Ginrei is followed by his son Kuchiki Sojun.
The captain of the Second Division, Shihouin Yoruichi, also came here with her vice-captain, Omaeda Nozomi.
Until the head-captain Yamamoto Genryūsai also arrived.
Except for the Twelfth Division, which has only the vice-captain, Hiyori, the other squadrons have all the captains and vice-captains here.
Everyone is very curious about who the new captain of the Twelfth Division is.
Only Captain Yamamoto, Yoruichi, Ginrei, Unohana, and Mazuru knew about it. Of the first four, three were witnesses and one was a recommender, while Mazuru simply knew the plot.
"The new one seems to have arrived." said Muguruma Kensei, captain of the Ninth Division.
Then the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a careless and reckless man walked into it.
Many people know this person.
The 3rd seat of the Second Division team, Urahara Kisuke!
