Chapter 3

———General POV———————

It's been about 3 years since Sakura arrived in the bleach universe. After looking in a mirror she saw that she looked like Sakura from Naruto when she was maybe 16 years old.

In her class she became friends with Rangiku. Rangiku told her about Soul Society and The Gotei 13. This helped her get a general idea of the timeline.

She was proficient in Hakuda, Hoho and Kido and quite terrible at Zanjutsu. She was barely a practitioner in Zanjutsu and close to an expert in the other three. The rankings for Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Hoho and Kido were practitioner, expert, master and grandmaster.

So she wasn't a genius or anything, she was just average.

She had successfully imprinted her soul on her asauchi which now looked like a normal kunai in its normal unreleased state. Her zanpakto hadn't talked to her yet so she patiently meditated everyday to try to contact it.

Rangiku also talked about Gin and how he was avoiding her and everything. Sakura just comforted her as she couldn't tell her about his reasons. Gin was the best in her class. He had awakened his shikai and the teachers liked him and treated him like a genius.

In class Sakura and Rangiku were chatting and so was the rest of the class. People were waiting for the teacher to arrive. After a few minutes the door opened and the teacher entered and behind him was a man Sakura remembered immediately.

"Okay quiet class, today we have a guest the lieutenant of the 5th division Sosuke Aizen" the teacher said.

The man behind him with curly brown hair and spectacles with a genuinely nice smile said "Hello I'm Sosuke Aizen and I'm here to pick people who will join my division to the human world to purify some souls and hollows."

Everyone who wanted a chance to go to the human world or fight hollows was happy and those who didn't give a sh.t like me were just relaxed. Aizen looked at the reactions and smiled. He then started to look at the students as if looking for someone and his eyes rested on Sakura , Rangiku and Gin.

He and the teacher then had a private talk and after class Sakura, Rangiku, Gin and three other students were selected. Not that I was surprised.

—————————MC's POV—————————

It's now a the morning after we were chosen for the trip and I were standing in front of the senkaimon with the other students.

Aizen and a blonde man with a creepy smile with a Captain's haori. He was holding his katana which was sheathed and had a funny way of walking. He was Hirako Shinji.

When he arrived he opened the senkaimon and he, the rest of the 5th division and us the students entered and arrived in what looks like ancient Japan. We saw samurais running around. People weren't up yet so besides the samurai the streets were empty.

"Welcome to Hakone in the world of the living." Captain Shinji said to us.
