Lost The Captain

There was no doubt Unohana Retsu's Zanjutsu stood at the pinnacle of the Soul Society, and there were only a handful people could rival her throughout history.

After the spar, Tokikaze felt that she was just a step away from breaking through Level 10 Zanjutsu.

Setting the risk of dying aside, Unohana Retsu was undoubtedly an excellent teacher.

Fortunately, they both used only bamboo swords during their spar, greatly reducing the risk.

"It would be an honor!" Tokikaze readily agreed.

Learning from the best would undoubtedly give him a chance to look at things from different perspective.

Only now did Yamada Seinosuke and the rest snapped from their senses. The gasps of the spectator could be heard as the training ground was noisy.

During the spar between Tokikaze and Unohana Retsu, they could barely breathe, as if the surrounding air had been sucked away.

Even though they didn't unleash much Reiatsu, the terrifying pressure still lingered in everyone's hearts.

They were aware that if it were them, they might not even have the courage to draw their swords.

The spar just now undoubtedly changed the image of Unohana Retsu for the Fourth Division members.

Behind their Captain's gentle and elegant facade, she had another side that they didn't know.

No wonder those nobles and important patients were so respectful to their Captain on ordinary days.

After the spar, Unohana Retsu mentioned that she had work to attend to. After changing back into her Captain attire, she happily left.

From her brisk footsteps as she left, it was evident that she was quite satisfied with Tokikaze's performance.

In her opinion, a swordsman of this level only needed a little guidance to reach her level.

By that time, they could fight with everything they got and enjoy the battle.

Thinking of this, Unohana Retsu's steps became lighter, disappearing from the sight of everyone after a few steps.

"Seinosuke, why do you look like a dead man?"

Tokikaze was surprised and tried to snap Yamada Seinosuke back to his senses by slapping him.

The pain in his face snapped Yamada Seinosuke back to reality, and he looked at Tokikaze with lifeless eyes.

At this moment, he seemed to be full of regrets.

No matter how big his imagination was, he could not anticipate that the situation would develop in such a strange direction.

He looked away for a second, and Tsunayashiro Tokikaze nearly took his Captain away from him.

At this rate, would his Captain still treat him the same?

Yamada Seinosuke felt so bitter that it was hard to express.

"Tokikaze Captain, I'm not in the mood for analysis and research today. You'll have to come back next time..."

Tokikaze shook his head, "That won't do; time is quite precious. I'm very curious about the secrets of that Adjuchas's body as well. If I can't get any answers today, then I'll stay at the Fourth Division barracks for now."

Tokikaze's idea was simple – if you were not in the mood today, maybe you would be in the mood tomorrow?

If tomorrow wasn't a good time either, then he'd think that Yamada Seinosuke was intentionally playing games with him.

At that time, don't blame him if he brought this matter to Unohana Retsu.

Hearing this, Yamada Seinosuke's mind suddenly conjured up some unpleasant images, and he shivered, "No problem, let's go to the Research Lab No. 6 now!"

Even if he had to work tirelessly today without eating or sleeping, he had to complete the dissection and analysis.

If Tokikaze spent too much time at the Fourth Division barracks, who knew how far he would go with his Captain?

Such a thing must not happen!"

Having realized this, he immediately called several Seated Officers and hastily led them to lab no. 6.

...

In the immaculate white room, everyone wore white protective suits, holding various types of surgical knives in their hands. Reiatsu emanated from the blades, illuminating the surroundings.

Lab no. 6 was typically used as a dissection room for corpses. Considering the possibility of large Menos corpses, the room was made quite spacious, capable of easily accommodating any level of Menos, even the Gillians.

Facing the massive Adjuchas, Yamada Seinosuke entered a focused state.

"Scalpel."

Yamada Seinosuke raised his right hand, and a large amount of Reishi gathered, forming a faint blue sharp light.

Tokikaze raised an eyebrow, showing some surprise.

While he had was considerably proficient in Kido, it was mostly Hado and Bakudo. He could only use the most basic Kaido, and likewise for barriers. He wasn't too well-versed with Kaido and barrier's advanced techniques.

However, judging by Yamada Seinosuke's performance, it seemed that Kaido had developed rapidly over the millennia, gradually rivaling Hado and Bakudo.

The Scalpel pierced the Adjuchas's abdominal area, revealing its organs in front of everyone.

The intense, pungent smell of blood filled the entire lab directly.

Strangely, there was no blood oozing out from the cut. Upon closer inspection, a faint Reiatsu glow could be seen near the cut.

The Reiatsu was spotted wherever the Scalpel cut, preserving the organs and ensuring that the dissection went smoothly.

Yamada Seinosuke even skilfully avoided Adjuchas's organs. His right hand skilfully wandered and outlined a bizarre picture on the flesh and blood.

In a matter of minutes, the Adjuchas's skin and flesh were completely separated, and the two large eyeballs were placed on a steel tray, rolling around creepily.

Fortunately, the personnel in the lab were seasoned and did not express surprise at such trivial matters.

Tokikaze attempted to analyze the secrets contained in Adjuchas's body from the Reiatsu level.

Unfortunately, he failed.

Everyone had their expertise.

Fighting and arguing were one thing, but asking him to analyze the secrets of Reiatsu and flesh was a bit beyond his abilities.

With the assistance of the Seated Officers, various organs were placed in different containers, sealed with Kido or preserved with some unknown liquid.

In just a moment, the once massive Adjuchas was reduced to only Hollow skin.

Yamada Seinosuke then put away his Reiatsu that formed the scalpel and instead, emitted a light green Reishi from his hands, gently gliding over the Hollow skin.

His already dark and serious face became even more solemn as his hands continued to move.

"The combination of the souls of a Soul Reaper and hundreds of Menos."

Yamada Seinosuke's voice suddenly became hoarse, as if his knowledge so far was turned upside down.

"And the transformation of the nature of 364 layers of Reiatsu. This is a true miracle..."
