Kuchiki Ginryu is nearing retirement, but the Sixth Division can absolutely not be handed over to an outsider.
We'll have to wait and see how things unfold, but Aizen isn't worried at all.
Even if Yamamoto really intended to have Zaraki replace Joe, Aizen didn't think Zaraki had any chance of winning. Even if he broke all the seals and completed his Shikai, he still wouldn't be a match for Joe.
At this point, Joe Higashi is almost at his limit with all his power going, and even if Kenpachi Zaraki's spiritual pressure is strong, his strength can't reach level 1 unless he uses his ultimate.
"Xiao Jian will definitely succeed!"
A small pink head peeked out from behind Zaraki's shoulder, its cute voice and adorable face making it look so harmless.
Squinting at his opponent, Aizen knew that the other was Zaraki's Zanpakuto.
Furthermore, the character of Kusajishi Yachiru is very special. She is a real person with the ability to realize her Shikai, which is different from the materialization of ordinary Zanpakuto.
Normally, when a Zanpakuto materializes, it is invisible to others. Even if it is pulled out by Muramasa, those Zanpakuto can only use the same Shikai as their master, unlike the "Three-Step Sword Beast".
"Outdoor sunbathing"
This is a completely different situation.
What's even more surprising is that she possessed the strength of an elite captain with just her Shikai. No wonder she was able to later seize Byakuya Kuchiki's house, establish the Women's Shinigami Association, and become its president.
No problem, besides Retsu Unohana, she's the strongest! If Soi Fon hadn't leveled up five years ago, it would probably have taken her decades to reach that rating.
The soul fusion of the level 1 and level 2 left Aizen somewhat puzzled. Was she really Kenpachi's Zanpakuto? It was obvious that Yachiru's sacrifice enabled Kenpachi's D.C., and according to all the circumstances, she should also be Kenpachi's Zanpakuto. Somewhat confused, Aizen couldn't help but probe Kenpachi Zaraki.
The next second, his expression changed slightly.
Because the ending of '98 was rushed, many characters were not explained clearly, and the issue of Yachiru remains unresolved. All the attempts to resolve these plot holes in this book are personal interpretations and should not be considered official settings.
Chapter 391 Speculation about Kusajishi Yachiru 3/3
Kenpachi Zaraki's strength: Talent: + Abilities: Nameless Zanpakuto, beginner in swordsmanship, beginner in Hakuda, beginner in Shunbutsu. As a strongman who has reached a certain level, Kenpachi Zaraki's ability panel is not only simple, but also low-level! Not only does he lack Kido, but all his remaining Zanpakuto, Kenpo, and Kisou are all at the lowest level.
In stark contrast is undoubtedly Kusajishi Yachiru. In terms of strength, talent, and even ability, the two are exactly the same. Under this premise, strictly speaking, this seemingly harmless and cute little loli is stronger and more dangerous than Kenpachi Zaraki.
What concerned Aizen even more was another point.
The Zanpakuto squinted at the tattered Zanpakuto, and Aizen's eyes flashed with doubt, yet also with some bold guesses.
This… Zanpakuto is the broken longsword that Kenpachi Zaraki used for slashing and hacking in the future. In the story, Kenpachi Zaraki tells Ichigo Kurosaki that his Zanpakuto has already "Shikai".
Because his spiritual pressure is so strong that he can't even suppress it to a normal state.
This claim was later proven wrong.
His spiritual pressure is strong, stronger than the Captain-Commander, and even stronger than Aizen. Furthermore, after Kenpachi Zaraki completed his Shikai during the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, it was named "Nosatsu."
The enormous machete further proved that his statement was unreliable.
However, this presents a very serious problem.
Asauchi is a standard design! Although every Asauchi is a product of Nimaiya Oetsu, its shape and length are always the same, and it only changes after it is transformed into a Zanpakuto.
Kenpachi Zaraki's swords are clearly not of the shallow-cut style, including those recognized by the system as "Zanpakuto".
Those three words prove that his sword is no longer just an Asauchi, but a Shinigami's Zanpakuto.
This presents a significant contradiction.
He has already transformed into a Zanpakuto, so why doesn't he know its name? Every Shinigami must first know the name of their Zanpakuto before they can transform into one. Only after mastering the D-release can they unleash their power by learning the true name of the Zanpakuto.
Even after Ichigo Kurosaki regained his Shinigami powers, he still wielded a giant katana. It wasn't until he learned Zangetsu's name during his battle with Urahara that a large cleaver appeared.
Furthermore, the Zanpakuto is "nothingness".
名”
It also seemed very abrupt.
Aizen didn't think the system would malfunction on this point, which meant that Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakuto truly had no name and hadn't even successfully transformed.
But the Soul Blade's rating is "".
This is quite intriguing.
Many of the captains of the Gotei 13 don't even have a D-rank rating, so how could Kenpachi's Zanpakuto, which doesn't even have a name, have such a rating?
Ignoring these doubts for now, let's turn our attention back to Kusajishi Yachiru.
This little girl's abilities are far more impressive than Kenpachi's; she's an all-rounder, which is quite remarkable. However, techniques like swordsmanship, Shunpo (flash step), and Hakuda (half-hit fighting) can be learned through Kenpachi's battles. So, what about "Advanced Kido"?
Where did it come from? Aizen had a bold guess.
Zanpakuto are reflections of the Shinigami's inner self. Kenpachi Zaraki's centuries of loneliness and isolation fueled his desire for companionship, leading him to "create" the Zanpakuto he found.
A "baby" who wasn't afraid of Kenpachi at all.
.
Generally speaking, the strength of a Zanpakuto is not much weaker than that of its master, so the Zanpakuto created Yachiru, who is similar to Kenpachi in all aspects.
Thus, Yachiru is a "Shinigami" created by her Zanpakuto.
It is not the Zanpakuto itself that is the key to understanding why, if Yachiru is a Zanpakuto, the entire Soul Society, including Aizen, didn't realize it.
Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakuto is nameless, perhaps because he doesn't believe his swords have life. This contradictory mindset prevented his Zanpakuto from fully evolving until he finally obtained "Nosara" in the future, driven by his thirst for Zanpakuto power.
.
The D-Solution might be partially lost due to Yachiru's existence, so to master the D-Solution, Yachiru's soul power needs to be returned to Kenpachi Zaraki.
This conjecture is highly illogical.
For example, if it hasn't fully transformed into a Zanpakuto, it means the sword spirit hasn't taken shape yet, so why was it able to create Kusajishi Yachiru?
For example, the power that created Yachiru is completely incompatible with the physical direct-attack ability of a Zanpakuto.
However, the strangeness surrounding these two individuals forced Aizen to make this analysis. Otherwise, could anyone explain why Kenpachi Zaraki's sword, Hagoku Go, could have a rating as high as 1000? If it created entirely new life, wouldn't that make a little more sense?
Aizen felt the inconsistency might be related to the fact that this... Zanpakuto was "found."
Related to.
If this Zanpakuto wasn't an Asauchi when it was found, but rather a Zanpakuto, then there are many possibilities.
1.
The original Zanpakuto lost its master, and the sword spirit perished with it. Before disappearing, the Zanpakuto was possessed by Kenpachi Zaraki, and the remaining power within it resonated with Kenpachi Zaraki's heart, creating Kusajishi Yachiru.
2.
The original Zanpakuto's D-release possessed an ability similar to creating life. However, the original owner lacked talent, so before its death, the sword spirit used Kenpachi Zaraki's spiritual pressure as a basis to create Yachiru Kusashi for the sword's new owner.
Chapter 392
The original Zanpakuto possessed special abilities and had already died. Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakuto spirit, unable to be born, could only vaguely borrow the abilities of the former spirit to create Yachiru Kusajishi as a way of repaying its master.
However, regardless of whether this power belongs to the former sword spirit, at least the vessel is the Zanpakuto in Kenpachi Zaraki's hand. Kusajishi Yachiru is ultimately a power separated from the sword, and to unleash the full power of the Zanpakuto and achieve D-release, this power must be recovered.
This research topic is very interesting, but the second or third type would not be replicable.
Since Tosen's Zanpakuto was also a second-hand sword, the first possibility, while not impossible, is relatively very low.
At the same time, if this situation can also explain why there has been no more... Kusajishi Yachiru since the Thousand-Year Blood War, if it is only a product of the sword spirit or the power of the wild sun, then Kenpachi Zaraki, who has mastered the D-union, should be able to summon Yachiru again.
Given their bond, if they could achieve it, even with potential side effects, this fearless beast wouldn't hesitate for a second, and the outcome would be predictable.
If this is the truth, then apart from Kusajishi Yachiru herself, probably no one else knows the true nature of her existence.
For old man Yamamoto, recruiting Kenpachi Zaraki is equivalent to recruiting two captains at the same time! A huge profit! This secret between the beast and the loli seems to have nothing to do with Aizen, but Aizen's lips curled up slightly. This beast, whom he had always thought was impossible to recruit, does seem to have a chance, but he needs to plan it carefully.
".
Everyone's almost here. Let's head to the Eleventh Division now.

Chapter 393 Can't even solve d (1/3)
"What isn't here?"
Kenpachi Zaraki's expression showed a mixture of impatience and surprise.
Carrying his sword, he said somewhat irritably, "It's such a waste of time just to wait for these guys."
Yamamoto: "!!!"
Despite feeling somewhat angry, Yamamoto held back, considering Zaraki's strength.
He has always been very tolerant of talented people.
As long as you don't violate the rules of the Central 46 Chambers or betray the Spirit Court, you're allowed to have a bit of a special temperament if you have the ability.
Even though Kenpachi Zaraki is not easy to control, his astonishing spiritual pressure alone is enough to make him one of the Soul Society's trump cards in times of crisis. Mastering the Shikai of his Zanpakuto or the way of the sword is not difficult for him. This man can quickly become stronger again whenever needed.
Excluding any bursts of power at crucial moments, their current combat strength is enough to make them a competent captain, at least much more reliable than Oni Ichijo. Plus, with a strong loli who is devoted to them, Yamamoto's tolerance is naturally very high.
"Set off."
The Eleventh Division's dojo was bustling with activity.
"ha!"
"No, no! Push harder!"
"No one is allowed to slack off! Our Eleventh Division is the strongest division!"
"Newcomer, pay attention!"
Various wild and passionate roars, accompanied by sweat, filled the dojo.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Various sounds of chopping and colliding mingled together, occasionally punctuated by angry roars vying for dominance.
With a loud crash, everyone stopped moving.
Kigenshiro Kenpachi, leaning against the entrance of the dojo, said coldly with a dark face, "What are you all standing there for? Assemble at the open-air training ground!" "Yes, sir!"
After a moment of stunned silence, the Grim Reapers shouted in a high-pitched voice.
This made Gui Yancheng's expression soften slightly.
Despite not being liked by the other captains, and even having some who secretly dislike him within the Eleventh Division, he still has many subordinates who respect and admire him as a former captain.
After all, if someone really disliked him, they wouldn't easily join the 11th Division to suffer. Even though Joe Higashi is the current captain, he still has a lot of influence in the team.
Then, the swishing sounds became uneven.
Clearly, the level of proficiency with the Instant Step varied greatly among the individuals.
Oni Yancheng, who arrived at the training ground first, saw Higashi Joe and Andy, who were waiting in full battle, as well as some other team members who were also waiting at the training ground.
"Captain, all the Shinigami at the Eleventh Division's base have been assembled."
"Hmm, well done."
Joe Higashi, who always maintained a cheerful smile, waved his hand.
However, his good mood didn't mean Gui Yancheng was in a good mood. His already dark face turned even uglier: "Captain, the Commander-in-Chief is giving you trouble this time, so you should pay a little more attention."
"What trouble? It's just someone challenging me, nothing serious."
Dong Zhang didn't seem to care at all, completely ignoring Gui Yancheng's warning.
The Captain-Commander sent a message to the other captains, and he naturally received it as well; it was about someone named "Kenpachi Zaraki".
Someone wants to challenge for the position of captain of the 11th Division.
Higashijo didn't have any particular thoughts about this matter. He had already challenged Oni-Ichijo to rise to power, so what if someone challenged him now? He was confident he wouldn't lose, which was enough for him.
"Who's so bold as to challenge the captain?"
"It looks like the Captain-Commander."
"Don't talk nonsense! But even if someone wanted to challenge the captain, they wouldn't stand a chance."
"There will always be some ignorant fools in this world."
The Grim Reapers surrounding them whispered amongst themselves, their confident and arrogant words revealing their true self-assurance.
The Eleventh Division, a combat division! The strongest division besides the Commander-in-Chief, so its captain should naturally be the strongest captain besides the Commander-in-Chief too! "But..."
Gui Yancheng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
He certainly trusted his captain's strength, and after their time together since the defeat, he had gradually come to admire Joe Higashi's abilities. However, he couldn't help but feel that the Captain-Commander had ill intentions this time.
That... his name is Kenpachi Zaraki; his real name is "Kenpachi".
