Chapter 271: King
Masatsuki Aozaki's days became noticeably easier after Gin Ichimaru and Kenpachi Zaraki took on the role of Lieutenants.
To be fair, among all the divisions, the 11th Division had always had relatively little work.
The 1st Division oversaw overall command.
The 2nd Division handled executions and assassinations.
The 7th Division was responsible for protecting the Central 46 Compound.
The 8th Division specialized in intelligence gathering.
The 10th Division maintained law and order within the Seireitei.
The 13th Division managed Konsō and the purification of Hollows.
During peacetime, aside from periodic assignments to the World of the Living, routine training, and occasional Menos invasions, a combat-focused division like the 11th Division had virtually nothing to do. Because of this, Masatsuki Aozaki had once enjoyed a rather leisurely lifestyle, spending his days idly wandering about.
However, for rare missions like eliminating criminals in District 80 of Rukongai—something that might only occur once in decades—he would still personally step in. After all, Rukongai had produced individuals of captain-class strength, such as Kiganjō and Kenpachi Zaraki. No one could say for sure whether more powerful figures would emerge from there.
But now, with Kenpachi Zaraki around, things were different. Tasks that once required his personal attention could now be delegated without concern.
