Chapter 421 421 The Candidate For Captain-Commander
"Hmph, you're the brat, your whole family are brats!"
Hearing Ichibe'e's words, Captain-Commander Yamamoto was so angry that his beard and mustache stood on end.
Being called a brat… how many years had it been since anyone dared call him a brat?
However, even with the finger-pointing outburst, Ichibe'e didn't get angry.
"Hey, aren't you a brat in front of me? When you failed to stop the number one Hollow in Hueco Mundo back then, and that Hollow broke into the Soul King Palace, wasn't it me who stepped in? Have you forgotten?"
Ichibe'e said.
"Hmph!" Hearing his words, Yamamoto could only snort coldly.
This was something he couldn't refute, because such an event had indeed happened back then!
Seeing Yamamoto fall silent, Ichibe'e seized the moment: "So, what do you think? Really, consider it!"
"Our Zero Division is still lacking in combat strength!" Ichibe'e said seriously.
"If you agree to the Oken reconstruction, you will definitely become much stronger than now!"
"Lacking combat strength, much stronger..." Hearing Ichibe'e's words, Yamamoto fell silent.
Indeed, he originally thought he could single-handedly suppress the Soul Society, but now it seemed his strength was still insufficient.
Facing an outlier level like Sora, he had no real means of resistance.
So Yamamoto directly nodded: "Alright, I'll consider it, but now isn't the time to discuss this, right?"
"Indeed..." Ichibe'e nodded, then looked towards Sora.
Suddenly, his gaze turned grave: "So similar, so similar!"
"This, this truly is the Soul King!" Ichibe'e said in shock, bowing to Sora: "Lord Soul King from another world, greetings, I, Hyosube Ichibe'e, offers you his highest respect!"
"What!!? This guy really is the Soul King!!?" Hearing Ichibe'e's words, Oetsu and the others were shocked.
How could they, as members of Zero Division, not know what the Soul King looked like?
But a complete Soul King like Sora was truly rare.
Moreover, there was another question: why could the Soul King like Sora walk freely like normal humans?
"Heh!" As if understanding the Zero Division members' question, Sora answered: "Because I am not the one who created the world."
"The Soul King of your world created the world, whereas I merely became the Soul King without creating it, so I am not bound to the world."
"I see!" Hearing Sora's words, Ichibe'e somewhat understood.
"Then there is one more matter, my lord!" Ichibe'e looked seriously at Sora: "You said you wished to visit the Soul King Palace… we must confirm that you will not take any excessive actions, right?"
"Excessive actions? Of course not!" Sora said casually: "I'm not restricting Yhwach, who is lurking in the shadows waiting to revive!"
"Yhwach!!?" Hearing the name Sora mentioned, Ichibe'e was extremely shocked.
"Wasn't he slain by Yamamoto?"
"He was slain," Sora nodded.
"But just like, Yamamoto, I'll f*ck your ancestors… slaying is one thing, his resurrection is another!"
"Now, Yhwach has revived and is even more powerful than before!"
"So, understand, I've given you a warning. Yhwach wants to become the Soul King, and he's preparing soldiers in the shadows!"
Sora said.
"Such a thing actually exists!!?" Hearing Sora's words, everyone was shocked.
Nearby, Toshiro, Kyoraku, and the others didn't really know who Yhwach was.
But Unohana revealed an unprecedented sharpness!
"Yhwach, that fellow is going to revive?" Unohana's expression was grave: "This is indeed a major event!"
"Yes," Yamamoto nodded.
He thought seriously again. Although he was very strong, he was indeed too old.
In that case, he would accept Ichibe'e's proposal.
"What you said, I agree to!" Captain-Commander Yamamoto said seriously: "This time, I'll go back with you!"
"As for the Gotei 13..." Yamamoto looked around at everyone, finally fixing his gaze on Kyoraku!
"Shunsui, I intend for you to be the next Captain-Commander!!" Yamamoto's words were very serious.
Hearing this, Kyoraku was stunned: "Me? I can't do it, Old Man Yama!!!"
Kyoraku was somewhat flustered… he hadn't finished playing around.
"You can't do it, then who do you want to be Captain-Commander!!?" Yamamoto said seriously, striking a pose.
"You are my disciple, Shunsui. At critical moments, you must step up!"
"Or do you want Jushiro to take the burden for you? Although I personally think giving the Captain-Commander position to Jushiro would be better than giving it to you..."
"..."
Hearing Yamamoto's words, Kyoraku fell silent!
"Well then, I guess it'll be me!"
