Chapter 363: Pure Friendship Between Men and Women in the World?
"This time, I admit defeat, and I acknowledge that you are more suitable to be the captain of the Tenth Division. But I will catch up to you soon!"
Winterlion, having recovered, glared at Yecheng with a stubborn look and spoke with determination.
Although he had nearly lost his fighting consciousness, he vaguely overheard Yecheng's conversation with Luan Ju and understood Yecheng's good intentions.
So at this moment, Winterlion, aside from feeling that his strength was still too weak, held no resentment towards Yecheng.
"The initial release of a Shinigami's Zanpakuto is achieved through communication with the Zanpakuto, gaining its recognition, and receiving a name from it.
If the initial release requires the Zanpakuto's recognition, then Bankai is about making the Zanpakuto submit to you!
It's not just about being acknowledged, but also using your own strength, will, and skills to make the Zanpakuto submit and willingly offer its power for your use.
Although your aura and other aspects have met the requirements, as I mentioned before, you rely too much on the Zanpakuto's abilities.
With such dependence on the power of Ice Wheel, what can you use to make Ice Wheel submit and have its power at your disposal?
Toshiro Kuchiki, try to surpass yourself! You, who have always been bound by your own shackles, will never be able to achieve Bankai like this!"
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Winterlion put aside his previous arrogance and sincerely bowed to express his gratitude.
Although his time as a Shinigami was not long, Winterlion was well aware that Yecheng's words were full of valuable insights.
The path to Bankai and the secrets to becoming stronger—these insights were not something that just anyone would be willing to impart so generously.
"Tomorrow, I'll come at the same time, and I'll keep coming until you master Bankai and become the captain of the Tenth Division."
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Winterlion was clearly taken aback and then asked in a daze, "Wasn't the sparring just now to determine the position of the captain of the Tenth Division?"
"The battle for the captain of the Tenth Division? This is the first time I've heard of it. From the beginning, I've been saying that I came because of Luan Ju, who asked me to help you with special training, right?
I have no interest in the captain position, let alone in the Tenth Division where Luan Ju is... You know her..."
Before Yecheng could finish speaking, Luan Ju, standing beside him, interrupted and took a step forward, blocking between Yecheng and Winterlion.
She spoke earnestly to Winterlion, "Yecheng is doing this special training for you because of me, and I've paid a precious price for it.
But your performance has greatly disappointed me, Winterlion. How can you live up to Captain Tagawa's high hopes for you?
Due to your poor performance, I, as the vice-captain of the Tenth Division, will punish you by having you handle today's squad duties.
As for me, I need to find a place with Yecheng to carefully plan your upcoming special training."
Upon hearing Luan Ju's words, Winterlion's face turned red with shame, and soon after, he felt deeply touched.
He never expected Luan Ju to think so highly of him and have such faith in him.
Winterlion knew that Luan Ju and Yecheng had an excellent relationship, and it was them who found him in Soul Street.
Despite their close bond, when it came to choosing the captain of the Tenth Division, Luan Ju still chose him and entrusted Yecheng, her friend, to help him with Bankai training.
In the past, he had always thought that Luan Ju was a lazy and easygoing woman with a big chest and no brains, but now it seemed like he had wrongfully accused her!
Compared to the deeply moved Toshiro Kuchiki, Yecheng, who heard Luan Ju's words, was completely stunned.
He could swear that he had never seen such a brazen person before!
Before, he had blamed himself for being too harsh, as Toshiro Kuchiki was just a child.
But now that the person has just recovered, you want them to handle the Tenth Division's affairs after getting beaten up, Luan Ju, does your conscience not hurt at all?
Compared to the moved Toshiro Kuchiki and the astonished Yecheng, the surrounding Tenth Division members were curious about what "precious thing" Sonben Lun Ju had offered to make Yecheng willing to help.
"It seems the rumors are true. The relationship between Sonben Lun Ju and Yecheng is definitely not as simple as we imagined!"
"Isn't that obvious? Only a fool would believe in pure friendship between men and women.
Sonben Lun Ju is indeed a drunkard, but have you ever seen her drink with other men?"
Looking at the departing figures of Luan Ju and Yecheng, arm-in-arm, the Tenth Division members couldn't help but start gossiping, and they shot envious glances at Yecheng's back.
After all, Sonben Lun Ju's figure and looks were indeed impressive.
As for Yecheng and Luan Ju leaving, were they really going to discuss Toshiro Kuchiki's special training plan?
Please, only the naive Toshiro Kuchiki would believe such nonsense.
Luan Ju can't even beat Toshiro Kuchiki now, and she's making a special training plan for him. She's just looking for an excuse to slack off and dump all the division's affairs on Toshiro Kuchiki so she can go out and drink.
"Boss, bring two more jugs of sake and a couple of squid as a side dish."
In the izakaya, Luan Ju emptied the sake in her glass and then smacked her lips without a care in the world, a true female drunkard.
"Hey, that's enough. Don't think I don't know you're broke.
You always say you'll treat me, but in the end, I'm the one paying the bill. Not only that, but you also make me work as your laborer. You don't even treat me, and then you rip me off, isn't that a bit too much?"
Seeing Luan Ju order another round without restraint, Yecheng's face was filled with displeasure. He was also tight on funds lately.
To revive Tagawa Tsu, he had spent all his money. At Luan Ju's drinking rate, they would likely end up staying to wash dishes for the boss.
"What's the problem? Didn't you promise that guy to take good care of me?"
Hearing Luan Ju's words, Yecheng also showed a look of realization. No wonder Luan Ju was suddenly drunk today; she must have overheard his conversation with Silversphere that night.
"You, can you not pretend to be drunk every time? Did you hear everything that night?"
Silversphere was a double-dealer, and Gin Ichimaru was cautious by nature. Yecheng was worried that Luan Ju, disturbed by her emotions, would seek answers from Silversphere, which would put Silversphere in a dangerous situation.
"I didn't hear everything, just that bastard saying he was leaving me in your care and protection.
That guy is still as self-righteous as ever. Why should I... huff huff huff..."
