Chapter 8 - 008: Graduation
The awakening of Zanpakuto was a surprise for Mazuru.
Because judging from the graduation requirements of Shinō Academy, although there is no such thing as you have to graduate as soon as you awaken your Zanpakuto, you can find a job after graduation, but the recruitment of Gotei 13 most of the time depends on whether you have awakened Zanpakuto and completed it's Shikai.
After all, among the four major abilities of shinigami, the Zanjutsu is always the first.
If you don't even have awakened your Zanpakuto, then relying on a asauchi alone, there is a high probability that you will not be recruited by the Gotei 13. Of course, if you are good enough in other aspects, such as Kidō, Shunpo, and Hakuda or possess any other extremely outstanding ability, there is still a probability of being selected by certain teams.
And those students who have not awakened Zanpakuto or excel in Kidō, Hakuda and Shunpo can only be said to be okay, but not the level required for getting recruited by Gotei 13. After the sixth grade, they will have two choices, one is to stay in Shinō Academy and study until the awakening of Zanpakuto, and the second is to join the Kidō Corps and Onmitsukidō (also known as the Stealth Force/Secret Mobile Unit)
Some students who are unwilling to stay in Shinō to continue their training often choose to join the two above.
The danger of Stealth Force is relatively high, and the Kidō Corps are always busy with tasks. They need to be responsible for opening channels, opening barriers, and seals of the entire Soul Society.
In comparison, it is better to join the Gotei 13 Division!
In twinkling of an eye, two years have passed, and Mazuru have become a sixth-grade student. During this period, he and his classmates also went to the present world for several internships to learn how to perform soul burials, but he did not meet Menos Grande, he originally had some expectations for the present world, but after actually going to the present world, he found that his expectations had failed.
At this moment in the present world, there is neither TV nor any entertainment facilities. It is basically the feudal era, and there is no fun to look for.
In addition, he has been hiding the fact that he has awakened his Zanpakuto, but there are some things that cannot be hidden for long because the graduation exam is coming.
