150 Chapter 150: First Meeting With Unohana

The Zanjutsu practice in the Zanpakuto space was just a daily routine.

The existence of the Wandenreich, especially the rumored "The Almighty" of Yhwach, inspired Mazuru to become stronger. Mazuru doesn't know how strong Yhwach is, but since he is the ultimate villain, he won't underestimate him in the slightest. In the original book, Aizen and Kurosaki Ichigo had joined forces and with the addition of various factors, they were barely able to defeat him.

Taking Muguruma Kensei as the unit of measurement first, Yhwach is probably stronger than Aizen. So, Mazuru doesn't even know how many Muguruma Kensei add up to make him.

Therefore, with his current strength he may not be Yhwach's opponent, but there is still time and there is nothing wrong with working hard to increase his strength.

Zanjutsu, Kido, Hakuda and Hohō, are the four basic skills of shinigami. These four abilities of Mazuru are all very strong. However, he found that the only thing he could rely on during any kind of crisis was the sword in his hand and the slashing technique honed in Hueco Mundo for a hundred years.

Can it be used against Yhwach?

He doesn't know. But thinking back, in a sense, the means used by Chi no Kawa in the Zanpakuto space was similar to the ability "The Almighty". When fighting there, due to the specialty of that space, all his offensives will be foreseen by her and then she would take countermeasures in advance.

Thinking about Chi no Kawa, Mazuru felt a little helpless. Except for the time when he wanted to achieve Bankai and forcibly materialized her into reality with Kisuke's help, Mazuru never won against her. The battles in the Zanpakuto space, even if his strength has grown over the years, they still end in failure. The only change is the amount of time he can persist.

But if he can't even compete with this demo-version of "The Almighty", it will be really difficult to fight against Yhwach.

"I need to improve and master even stronger slashing technique."

Mazuru looked at the sword in his hand.

He has already reached his personal peak by relying solely on practicing the slashing technique by himself (counting his Zanpakuto). No matter how hard he tries, he can no longer make progress. Therefore, he needs to use other methods to improve his slashing technique.

'It is better to ask for help from others than to blindly training alone without any progress.'

Mazuru immediately made a plan in his heart.

He thought of someone.

The person who bears the title of "Kenpachi", but it's not Zaraki Kenpachi, but the First Generation Kenpachi, Captain of Fourth Division – Retsu Unohana!

Regarding the secret identity of Unohana, Mazuru also learned it from the articles and information of the self-proclaimed anime-journalists, such as "Shocked! It turns out that the seemingly gentle her real identity is...", "Shocked! Head-Captain's Bankai is..." and so on… Mazuru was in the sophomore age group at that time, so when he saw such titles, he would inevitably click on it and have a look.

Of course, most of the contents are filled with nonsense to fill up words, such as "It is well known that the head-captain's Zanpakuto is the strongest Zanpakuto of the fire element, so what is its Bankai?", "What kind of Bankai does this Zanpakuto have?" and so on… Anyway, most of them full of similar nonsense, first they make up enough words, and only give the answer in an understatement at the end. There are even nutjobs who are a little too much crazy, they don't even bother to tell the answer and just leaves the readers hanging after filling up the word counts.

…

The Fourth Division is not far from the Third Division. It is the most peaceful division among Gotei 13, and there is no fight between the members. After all, it is a medical team, so there is no conflicts within it.

When Mazuru was under the leadership of Kotetsu Isane, the vice-captain of the Fourth Division, Mazuru came to the captain's room of the Fourth Division. Retsu Unohana, the captain of the Fourth Division, looks so gentle no matter when and where, it is really difficult to link such a gentle person with the identity of First Kenpachi.

Mazuru didn't really believe it at first, but sometimes, even if you don't want to believe it, the fact is the way it is, and you have to accept it. All he can say is that people change. Under the power of time, even the once murderous demon will change her mind and become a gentle healer.

Unohana was arranging flowers when Mazuru arrived. Sensing Mazuru's arrival, she didn't stop what she was doing. After a piece of work was finished, she put it on the table beside her, and said to Mazuru, "If I remember correctly, Captain Mazuru, this should be the first time you came here."

Mazuru nodded and said, "Yes."

Unohana showed a faint smile, "When I learned about Captain Mazuru's graduation results, I sent an invitation to Captain Mazuru to join the Fourth division, but unfortunately, Captain Mazuru chose to join the Thirteenth Division in the end."

Mazuru replied softly: "This can only mean that I have no fate with the Fourth Division"

Unohana smiled, and suddenly said: "No."

Mazuru was taken aback by the sudden dangerous smile on Unohana's face.

"Captain Mazuru was not able to join my Fourth Division, it was simply because someone acted as a hindrance."

Who was the hindrance, Unohana did not say but Mazuru also knew that Unohana was talking about was Shunsui. Although he knew that Unohana is black-bellied, but it has been so many years, and she still is holding grudge about this matter, Mazuru didn't know how to respond to her words.

Unohana looked at the silent Mazuru, changed her tone and asked Mazuru, "Captain Mazuru suddenly came to the Fourth Division, you must have some reason, right?"

Mazuru's expression also became serious, "There is indeed something. I want to ask Captain Unohana's help."

"Oh?"

"I want to ask Captain Unohana to help me sharpen my slashing technique."

Not training, but grinding.

Mazuru's slashing technique has reached a certain peak, and what he needs is a powerful whetstone if he wants to reach a higher level above that peak.

Hearing Mazuru's words, Unohana was also taken aback for a moment, and a sharp light flickered in her smiling eyes, which were originally slightly narrowed.

"Captain Mazuru, don't joke with me. Fourth Division is the medical squad. As the captain of the medical squad, my fighting techniques are not much. If it is Kaidō, I can help Captain Mazuru."

Kaidō, is the kind of Kidō which engages in healing, and Unohana is the best user of Kaidō but Mazuru's purpose for coming here is obviously not to learn Kaidō.

He bluntly said, "Captain Unohana's past may be a secret to many young shinigami, and only some older shinigami have a little knowledge of your past identity. By chance and coincidence, I also got a glimpse of your past identity."

After saying that, Mazuru said three words slowly.

"First Generation Kenpachi."
