Chapter 615 - New Member of 5th Division
Chapter 615 - New Member of 5th Division
“Dean?”
Hearing Kabuto’s voice, Rukia looked at the silver-haired man who appeared at the reception room door in surprise, almost rushing to Kabuto’s arm.
Kabuto, the dean who raised them, a street kid, like a father and elder brother, was undoubtedly the most respected person for Rukia!
“The guest is still here.”
There was a smile on Kabuto’s face. He knocked his finger on Rukia’s head and said with a smile, “Rukia, don’t mess around…”
“Yes.”
Rukia timidly stood by Kabuto’s side and asked in a low voice, “Um… Dean, are you leaving…”
This was what Rukia was most concerned about.
When Byakuya told her, Rukia was a little unwilling to believe it. She wanted to know the truth of this matter from Kabuto’s mouth.
“That’s right.”
Kabuto nodded with a smile. He patted Rukia on the head and continued, “There’s nothing we can do about it… After all, people will always separate…”
“Dean…”
“Alright.”
Kabuto turned to look at Byakuya, who was sitting on the guest seat. He smiled and said, “Rukia, you can leave first. Let me have a good talk with the Young Lord of the Kuchiki clan…”
“This…”
Rukia’s expression was surprised for a second.
However, out of trust in Kabuto, Rukia still nodded seriously and slowly withdrew from the reception room.
After Rukia withdrew, there was a flash of seriousness in Byakuya’s eyes. He could not put Rukia in his eyes, but he must not put Kabuto in his eyes!
Hundreds of years ago, Kabuto once served as the 8th Division Captain in charge of intelligence. During that time, the presence of the 8th Division was overwhelming.
To put it bluntly…
The limelight of the 8th Division almost overshadowed any division!
The most important thing was that the Kuchiki clan actually owed Kabuto a big favor, and Kuchiki Byakuya’s father and the current head of the Kuchiki Clan, Kuchiki Sojun, and Kabuto were best friends.
And in a certain mission, Kuchiki Sojun led the 6th Division and encountered danger. Fortunately, Kabuto took action to save them.
This favor was really big…
Otherwise, Byakuya would not have personally come to the orphanage to discuss things with Rukia. Instead, he would forcefully send people to bring Rukia back to the Kuchiki house.
Unfortunately.
Although Kuchiki Sojun had always been very talented and even treated people very kindly, he could still not truly have the dignity of a family head.
In comparison, Byakuya was even more suitable than his father and had more dignity as the head of the family.
Kuchiki Sojun hoped to protect Kabuto’s orphanage after Kabuto entered Zero Division, but Kuchiki Byakuya disapproved of his father’s opinion. This was another reason why he came to the orphanage.
It was also because of Kuchiki Sojun’s gentle character that Kuchiki Byakuya did not face too much pressure when he married Kuchiki Hisana, who was born a civilian…
This also made their father-and-son relationship good.
Therefore, facing his father’s best friend, Byakuya was a little hesitant
Moreover, from a certain perspective, Kabuto often visited the Kuchiki clan as a guest. In fact, he watched him grow up…
“You don’t have to be restrained in front of me.”
Kabuto sat opposite Byakuya and poured himself a cup of tea with a smile. He said calmly, “I really didn’t expect it, Byakuya has really grown up, and he has learned to think from the standpoint of the family…”
“Yes… I want to adopt Miss Rukia.”
Byakuya frowned slightly. He looked at Kabuto in front of him and said in a deep voice, “The relationship between my wife Hisana and Rukia, Lord Kabuto is very clear about this…”
If not for the fact that Hisana was the one who placed Rukia in the orphanage, Byakuya would have suspected that it was Kabuto’s scheme. This always-smiling orphanage director was too deep…
“Yes.”
The smile on the corner of Kabuto’s mouth grew wider. He nodded slowly and said, “I will never stop this kind of thing. I also hope that Rukia can live a better life…”
“Okay.”
Byakuya slowly nodded and said in a deep voice, “Although we all think that the current head of the Uehara clan has a kind temperament, the 13 Death Servants beside him…”
“There’s no need to worry.”
Kabuto took a sip of tea and continued calmly, “I believe that Lord Naraku will handle all of this…”
They were all on the same side.
There was no need for outsiders to worry about these problems at all.
Compared with these small things, they might as well worry about which Division Uehara would go into after graduation.
The next day.
Seireitei.
Spiritual Arts Academy.
Because today was the day that 5th Division Captain Sosuke Aizen announced the results of yesterday’s assessment, many students who participated in the assessment gathered at the school.
Uehara was naturally not an exception.
Perhaps he would graduate from this school today.
Although Uehara himself did not stay in this school that cultivated shinigami for a long time, he still became a character with legendary status and super talent.
No matter if it was the former excellent students like Kira Izuru and Hinamori Momo or the hot-blooded idiots like Abarai Renji who refused to admit defeat…
All of them became Uehara’s footnotes.
“Naraku…”
When a young girl with black hair pulled into a bun held in a tied cloth saw Uehara, she waved her palm at Uehara with a happy face, “Hurry up, Captain Aizen will be here today to announce the passing list!”
“Hey, Hinamori.”
Renji looked at Uehara with a face full of displeasure and walked over with another companion, Kira Izuru, “This is the head of the Uehara clan. Maybe he will be the captain after graduation!”
Renji did not hate Uehara.
What Renji hated was the Uehara clan.
Every child from the orphanage did not have a good impression of the Uehara clan.
Even if Renji knew that Uehara hadn’t done anything wrong, he would just subconsciously blame Uehara for the mistake of the Uehara clan suppressing Kabuto.
Probably only Ichimaru Gin, who knows the truth, would know the real relationship between Uehara and Kabuto…
“Renji…”
There was still some grievance on Hinamori Momo’s face.
This girl had always had a good impression of Uehara because Uehara would never use his identity to suppress others.
Even in the face of Renji, who had always had a bad temper, Uehara would always treat him gently and never care about Renji’s offense to him.
Even Renji, who habitually expressed his dissatisfaction with the Uehara clan, felt a little regret.
Because he knew Uehara’s character.
“Ah, I’m sorry, Uehara.”
Renji hugged his arm as an apologetic look flashed across his face. He said loudly, “I don’t mean anything else. I just feel a little unhappy…”
After all…
Today was the day to announce the graduates and when Kabuto would also leave Seireitei. Renji was naturally a little unhappy.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Uehara narrowed his eyes and looked at Renji apologetically. He shook his head and said, “I know my identity brings you unhappiness…”
When he said this, the apology on Uehara’s face became even stronger. He even said somewhat awkwardly, “I’m sorry. I didn’t think that after we’ve been together for so long, you would still be dissatisfied with me because of my identity…”
These words were a bit like green tea.
And if one considered it seriously, it was indeed Renji’s fault. Uehara had never put on any airs!
Even with such an identity, when he faced the students of the Spiritual Arts Academy, Uehara had always been very humble. Every student knew that although Uehara’s identity was noble, he was a kind person in his heart.
To put it bluntly…
This was simply naive.
If Uehara were not the head of a rich family, many students in Spiritual Arts Academy would probably bully him, and it was inevitable that someone would find him almost every day……
However.
This naive person was very popular in school.
Whether it was Hinamori Momo or Kira Izuru, they could not help but look at Abarai Renji. Each face was full of blame and dissatisfaction.
In their view, every time, it was Renji who took the initiative to find fault… And not only did Uehara never fight back, he even apologized.
So…
Such a kind person…
Who would dare to bully him!
Renji noticed Momo and Izuru’s condemning gazes, and his face could not help but twitch, “Hey, hey, hey, I already said that wasn’t what I meant!”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Uehara shook his head and forced himself to smile, “I’m already used to it. Let’s not talk about these unhappy things…”
Uehara looked at Renji’s aggrieved expression and slowly changed the topic, “Speaking of which, our assessment seems to be different. What was the assessment you encountered yesterday?”
“I encountered some trouble.”
Kira Izuru’s face suddenly became solemn, and he said in a deep voice, “Yesterday, we encountered a group of hollow attacks. The shinigami team that was responsible for protecting us was almost wiped out because of this…”
“Mm…”
There was still some lingering fear on Hinamori Momo’s face. However, when they mentioned this matter, there was a flash of worship on her face, “Fortunately, Captain Aizen came to support us! Otherwise, everyone would really be in danger…”
“That’s really good luck…”
Uehara nodded slightly.
Yesterday, Sosuke Aizen really didn’t waste any time!
That guy, Sosuke Aizen, sent Menos to assassinate him, the head of the Uehara clan. When he saw that the assassination failed, he even came out to help clean up the mess and appease this kind student of his…
When the matter with him was settled, he went to Abarai Renji, Hinamori Momo, and the others then used this opportunity to hook up with the young girl…
What a master of time management.
Uehara frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, “Speaking of which, there is a strange thing. Because of some reason, the place where I participated in the assessment should be confidential, but I still encountered a hollow attack. There is even Menos Grande…”
“Huh? Menos Grande!”
Renji’s expression changed instantly. He couldn’t help but ask, “Did anything happen to you?”
“No.”
Uehara shook his head and continued in a deep voice, “Seventeen Menos, no, it should be eighteen Menos. They wanted to cross the boundary wall and enter my assessment site to attack me, but they were all stopped by the Death Servants of our clan…”
When Uehara said this, he couldn’t help but lower his voice and say in a low voice, “I’m just a little curious about how those Menos knew where my assessment site was and attacked me…”
“You mean…”
Kira Izuru frowned and asked in a low voice, “Are those hollow intending to attack you?”
Hinamori Momo shook her head slightly and spread out his palm. “Speaking of which, this is also very normal. After all, with Naraku’s identity, it is not strange that Menos wants to attack Naraku…”
“…”
Uehara’s forehead jumped.
Could these two guys guess something serious?
No wonder these two people have been played and manipulated by others; why can’t they think of a serious direction at all?
Renji’s expression was slightly gloomy, “Uehara, do you mean that someone secretly leaked the location of your assessment site?”
“Well…”
Just as Uehara wanted to bury the nail quietly and even planned to bury the nails when he met Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni in the future
As a result, two people’s reiatsu suddenly appeared in his perception range.
Sosuke Aizen and Ichimaru Gin!
The corner of Uehara’s eyes paid attention to their appearance, and the topic immediately changed, “There are some speculations in our clan that Menos might have grasped a way to track down our clan bloodline. After all, there are some secrets… Forget it; it’s just that this incident will cause me some trouble…”
“What trouble?”
Sosuke Aizen stood beside Uehara and said with a gentle smile, “If my future companion encounters some difficult troubles, it will make me, the captain, feel very troubled for my companion…”
“Captain Aizen!”
Everyone’s face flashed a touch of surprise.
Hinamori Momo’s face instantly showed a look of worship. Kira Izuru slightly bowed his head to show respect to the 5th Division Captain.
Abarai Renji looked at Sosuke Aizen indifferently. His eyes fell more on Ichimaru Gin beside Aizen, “Hello, Big Brother Gin, long time no see!”
“Renji is also here…”
Ichimaru Gin narrowed his eyes and looked at Renji with a smile, then turned to look at Uehara and said, “Lord Naraku, Captain Aizen will soon announce that you will be assigned to our 5th Division…
If you have no objection to this matter, then we will become companions in the future!”
“Of course not!”
Uehara shook his head and even took half a step back to show his humility, “No… It should be an honor to be able to become a subordinate of Captain Sosuke Aizen and Lieutenant Ichimaru Gin…”
“No.”
Ichimaru Gin opened his eyes slightly, revealing light blue eyes. There was a hint of respect in his laughter that was hard for ordinary people to hear, “This matter… should actually be our honor!”
However, this kind of respect from Ichimaru Gin…
In terms of their current superficial identities, it sounds more like a mockery.
