Chapter 15 Daily Life of the Squad

Unlike Kenpachi Kuriyashiki, who is facing life and death but is still worried about affecting his teammates, Natsuki is a very selfish person.

He adheres to the philosophy of "I would rather die than let my fellow Taoists die".

After all, he had finally been able to live again in the world of the dead. He was the kind of person who valued his life very much and would never joke about his own life.

The existence of Kenpachi Zaraki has had some impact on the morale of the 11th Division.

But the entire squad did not stop operating because of this.

When Hollows appeared in Soul Society, the 11th Division attacked even more actively.

Apart from his cold personality, Kenpachi Zaraki is actually a very qualified captain in other aspects. Whenever a Hollow appears, he always chooses to take the lead and take the initiative to fight, instead of hiding behind his teammates.

He is very powerful and is a person similar to Kenpachi Kuriyashiki.

Because Kenpachi Kuyashiki's Bankai was banned, he always used shallow attack when facing Hollows, and rarely even used Shikai. He relied on the powerful sword pressure to tear the Hollows apart.

Kenpachi Zaraki is more pure. He doesn't even swing his sword, but just uses kidō to deal with the hollows.

His attainments in the way of ghosts are extremely powerful. Even a great void will be devoured by his way of ghosts and die.

Of course, for a squad that advocates fighting with every blow, using ghost tactics to deal with the enemy is actually not accepted by many team members, and they don’t like this way of fighting.

This was so that even though Kenpachi Zaraki defeated the enemy, many team members did not feel any admiration for him.

Not to mention, after winning the battle, Kenpachi Zaraki did not hold a grand cocktail party to celebrate the victory like Kenpachi Kuriyashiki did.

This is what happened after the victory. When we set out to fight, the other side didn’t hold any ceremony.

It would be fine if there was no contrast, but it is precisely because of the contrast that Kenpachi Zaraki is not very likable at the moment.

"Perhaps as time goes by, people's impression of you will change."

Natsuki couldn't help but think in his heart as he thought about the reputation of this new Kenpachi.

Then, he whispered again: "But what does this have to do with me?"

Whether it was Kenpachi Kuriyashiki or Kenpachi Zaraki, for him, who had only been in the Soul Society and joined the Gotei 13 for a short time, he did not have a deep impression of them, and naturally he did not have any deep bond with them.

In Xia Mu's mind, he is not even as good as his comrades in the Hueco Mundo expeditionary force.

Apart from anything else, those companions had fought alongside him for at least several years.

Life in the 11th Squadron was very monotonous.

Apart from fighting, the other thing is cultivation.

The other team members also have a hobby of drinking, but Xia Mu is not good at drinking and does not have such a hobby.

When he is not fighting, he prefers to stay in the dormitory and communicate with his Zanpakutō through the "Sword Zen" method.

"It's almost there, it's almost there..."

Over the years, Xia Mu has killed quite a few Xu.

These spirit particles that dissipated after the death of the Hollow were silently attracted and absorbed by his Zanpakutō. He could feel his own spiritual power growing stronger. As his spiritual power grew stronger, when he chose to merge with the spiritual power of his Zanpakutō, he gradually heard a vague voice. Unfortunately, he still could not enter the spiritual space, see his Zanpakutō, and then master the Shikai.

Not long ago, Kenpachi Kuriyashiki died in battle. Although Natsuki did not deliberately draw out his Zanpakutō to pick up the body, after the war, he still discovered that some of Kenpachi Kuriyashiki's dissipated spirit particles were still quietly absorbed by him.

It seemed that whether he drew his sword or not, it would not affect the passive ability of his Zanpakutō.

If you think about it carefully, it's normal.

This ability itself is not controlled by Xia Mu freely, but a passive ability. The scabbard is not a special thing, so it is naturally impossible to seal this passive ability.

The death of Kenpachi Kuriyashiki was a sad thing for most of the Shinigami in the 11th Division, but for Natsuki, his own spiritual power was indeed improved, which brought him one step closer to mastering the Shikai.

Daily routine, after practicing sword meditation.

We came to the training ground of the 11th Squadron again.

Even though Kenpachi has been replaced, many people are dissatisfied with the new Kenpachi, but this does not affect the combative nature of the 11th Division members.

In the training ground, many team members were practicing in pairs. There were both men and women, and there were quite a few female reapers. Because of the battle, their bodies twisted and some parts of their bodies were inevitably exposed, which attracted many old perverts to drink and watch the battle.

However, these female team members seemed to have long been accustomed to this and did not feel shy at all. Instead, they openly showed their abilities during the battle.

Xia Mu's eyes swept across the training ground, and finally found an open space. He asked some idle people nearby who were watching the game out of boredom, "Anyone want to spar with me?"

When these words were spoken, many death gods immediately became interested.

"I come!"

"Count me in!"

Thanks to the characteristics of the current 11th Division, the respondents are naturally both male and female.

Xia Mu is a chief officer. Even if they lose in a battle with a chief officer, they can still gain something. This is something that the members of the 11th Squadron, who love fighting, will naturally not refuse.

Xia Mu did not refuse to fight with these people just because they were ordinary soldiers.

However, ordinary soldiers are ordinary soldiers after all.

After only a few moves, they were defeated by Xia Mu.

"As expected of you, you are the ninth seat of Xia Mu. We are still far behind you!"

After the defeat, the team members were not too depressed, but just marveled at Xia Mu's clean and neat skills.

There was no smugness on Xia Mu's face.

At this moment, a deep voice came into Xia Mu's ears, "Xia Mu Jiu Xi, how about we have a competition?"

"It's the Akagi Three Seats!"

After hearing this, many soldiers looked at the speaker and recognized him.

The third seat is already the head of the officials.

Above them are the captain and the deputy captain. The deputy captain is appointed by the captain. He may not be very strong and may be someone with connections, but anyone who can get one of the three seats is definitely strong.

At the beginning, when Watanabe Yuji was in the 11th Division, he was only the fifth seat.

Asido, who went to support the Hueco Mundo expeditionary force, was the fourth seat of the 11th Division.

And now, this Akagi Ryosuke holds the third seat.

This does not necessarily mean that he is stronger than Watanabe Yuji and Asida, but being able to hold three seats means he is definitely not a weak person.

"Akagi's three seats!"

Xia Mu greeted the other party without deliberately getting closer to him. At present, he and everyone in the 11th Division were just nodding acquaintances. They knew each other, but they were not close enough to sleep in the same bed.
