From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 511: The genius - Rangiku Matsumoto.

"Ichimaru Gin, Matsumoto Rangiku?" Kuchiki Byakuya repeated softly, then smiled kindly and said, "My name is Kuchiki Byakuya, I am the next generation head of the Kuchiki family, and I am currently the third seat of the sixth division of the Gotei 13."

"Lord Byakuya." Upon hearing this, Gin Ichimaru and Rangiku Matsumoto immediately bowed respectfully.

It's just that because they both came from Rukongai and didn't really know any etiquette, their actions were a little funny.

But even if they were born in Rukongai, they could understand how noble the identity of this seemingly kind man in front of them was.

The Kuchiki family is the most famous noble family in Soul Society. Let alone other things, just take the Tenjou Castle as an example. That's the one that the Kuchiki family is in charge of. Whenever any of the retainers come out, those noble lords who used to look high and mighty will treat him politely and respectfully.

Not to mention that he is the next head of the Kuchiki family.

Apart from this, they were also familiar with the reputation of the Gotei 13. After all, the reason why he and Rangiku were noticed by this manager was because he felt that they had some potential and might be able to join the Gotei 13 in the future, right?

"No need to be polite." Kuchiki Byakuya waved his hand without any politeness, and said directly: "I think both of you have great potential and talent. If you are willing, I can recommend you two to go to Seireitei and join the new students of the Shinō Spiritual Academy this year. Calculating the time, there is still about half a month left, so it should be in time. What do you think?"

Byakuya Kuchiki is really optimistic about these two little guys. One of them is named Gin Ichimaru, and he looks a little serious, like a mature little fox. Even under the condition of not having enough food to eat and not having warm clothes to wear, the spiritual pressure in his body is almost catching up with that of ordinary soldiers, which shows that he has extraordinary talent.

There is no doubt that if nothing unexpected happens, if he is trained well, he will become an outstanding Shinigami graduate once he graduates from the Maou Spiritual Academy, and it will not be impossible for him to compete for the chief position.

Later, with such excellent results, he could join a team of the Gotei 13 and gain experience for dozens or even hundreds of years. In the future, he might be able to become a captain-level talent.

This was Byakuya Kuchiki's first impression of the little guy Gin Ichimaru.

And for Matsumoto Rangiku, it was even more surprising.

In Kuchiki Byakuya's opinion, Ichimaru Gin is a talent with the potential to become a captain, but whether he can succeed in the end will depend on his own performance and efforts.

As for Rangiku Matsumoto, when he saw this little girl for the first time, Byakuya Kuchiki felt really surprised!

She looked weak, even a little timid, and normally it seemed that Gin Ichimaru was protecting her, but in fact, her spiritual pressure was stronger than Gin Ichimaru's. In Byakuya Kuchiki's spiritual vision, Rangiku Matsumoto exuded a graceful aura from head to toe.

She doesn't need any special care or effort. With this kind of talent, as long as she grows up normally, she will have a great chance of naturally becoming a captain-level Grim Reaper!

He is truly a genius.

Even Byakuya Kuchiki suspected that Rangiku Matsumoto had a very special physique. If she was brought back to Soul Society, he could examine her carefully to see what her condition was.
In fact, Matsumoto Rangiku's talent is indeed outstanding. Not only does she have excellent natural talents, but she also has the fingertips of the Spirit King in her body!
In the original story, Aizen met Rangiku Matsumoto while wandering in Rukongai, looking for potential stocks that could be used for experiments. Then Aizen noticed Rangiku Matsumoto's peculiarity and excellence, and forcibly took away the Soul King's fingertip in Rangiku Matsumoto's body, which caused Rangiku Matsumoto to be seriously injured and almost died.

All of this was witnessed by Gin Ichimaru who was hiding nearby, so he made up his mind to help Rangiku take back what was in her body. He began to work on his revenge, followed Aizen and committed many sins, and almost killed Aizen in the end, but failed and died in Rangiku's arms.

Not to mention that these bad fates are unlikely to happen.

Let’s talk about Rangiku Matsumoto. When she was young, she was severely injured by Aizen and the Soul King’s fingertips in her body were taken away. But even in this situation, she still relied on her excellent talent and joined the Gotei 13 by chance. She quickly became an outstanding Shinigami and served as the vice-captain of the 10th Division.

Even if she didn't have Bankai in the end, in fact, even at the end of the Thousand Year Bloody War, Matsumoto Rangiku was still a very young god of death, and no one could say whether she would be able to have Bankai in the future.

Even after being severely injured and having the Spirit King's fingertips taken away from her body, she could still end up like this.

And now, he is intact. If he is noticed by Byakuya Kuchiki and brought back to Soul Society to be trained well, it should be a foregone conclusion that he will become a captain, or even surpass most captains.

So at this moment, Byakuya Kuchiki is more optimistic about Rangiku Matsumoto.

Byakuya Kuchiki's invitation was very blunt and not tactful at all, but this was very consistent with the difference in status between him and Gin Ichimaru and Rangiku Matsumoto.

After all, one is a great noble, while the others are just small fry who are on the verge of death in Rukongai.

It was a great honor for both of them that Byakuya Kuchiki could say this.

Gin Ichimaru was mature beyond his years, so he understood this principle very well. At the same time, he also knew very well that this might be the best opportunity for him and Rangiku to turn things around.

Between the two of them, it was always Ichimaru Gin who made the decisions, so there was no need to discuss anything. Ichimaru Gin immediately knelt on one knee and said to Kuchiki Byakuya as politely as he could remember: "Thank you for your appreciation, sir. We are willing!"

After getting a satisfactory reply, Kuchiki Byakuya was also very happy. Seeing that Matsumoto Rangiku had reacted, he also wanted to salute, but Kuchiki Byakuya still helped them up and said: "I told you, no need to be polite. With your talents, if you work hard in the future, your achievements may not be inferior to mine. Maybe I will need you to take care of me in the future."

This was indeed a bit polite, but Ichimaru Gin immediately responded: "If Byakuya-sama needs anything, I, Ichimaru Gin, will do anything for you."

Although Ichimaru Gin looks mature beyond his years, he is like a little fox.

But in fact, if he is to be said to be naive, he is also very naive. He only has one idea and vision, that is, Rangiku can live a good life. That is why he is so grateful to Byakuya Kuchiki and says such words. He even thinks that if he really dies for Byakuya Kuchiki, then Rangiku will definitely be well taken care of by the Kuchiki family, right?

Even if it's just an example, or like buying a horse bone with a fortune, I will definitely do it!

"How can it be so serious?" Kuchiki Byakuya shook his head with a bit of amusement, then looked at the manager and said, "You did a great job, I am very satisfied, you should do more things like this in the future, and discover more outstanding talents for Seireitei, keep it up, I will come to see you again in the future."

The butler felt as if he was ascending to heaven after being praised by Byakuya Kuchiki. His eyes were so smiling that they could not be seen. He quickly responded, "Don't worry, Lord Byakuya. No one dares not to take your instructions seriously!"

Just like that, when they returned to Soul Society, Byakuya was followed by two little guys who were looking around, as if they were curious about everything in this huge Soul Society.

Byakuya wanted to be kind to these two little guys, so he planned to take them back to the Kuchiki family first, take care of them for a few days, make a deeper impression on them, and then send them there when the enrollment of the Maou Spiritual Academy was about to end.

After entering the White Gate and arriving at the Soul Society, Kuchiki Byakuya took the two little guys and walked towards the noble area.

The several streets where the aristocratic district is located are patrolled by soldiers from the Sixth Division. Ordinary civilians and even ordinary Death God soldiers are not allowed to enter the aristocratic district.

But when Byakuya leads people, there is naturally no such rule.

As if this place naturally gave people a feeling of tension and awe, after Gin Ichimaru and Rangiku Matsumoto followed Byakuya Kuchiki into this area, they unconsciously restrained their breath, dared not say much, and tried to walk as lightly as possible.

Soon, they arrived at the edge of the Shihouin family's area, the city within the city. Passing through here and going further in, they would reach the Kuchiki family's territory.

As a result, as soon as they arrived at this place, Byakuya suddenly seemed to sense something, his mouth twitched, and his spiritual pressure burst out. He quickly protected Gin Ichimaru and Rangiku Matsumoto behind him.

At the same time, he chanted: "The pride of heaven, the iron walls, the dragon's steps, the lion's roar, the tiger's howl, the wolf's running, cut off the heaven and earth before they collapse, the eighty-first way of binding: breaking the sky!!!"

A transparent barrier like tempered glass suddenly unfolded in front of the three people.

Gin Ichimaru and Rangiku Matsumoto were completely unable to react and had no idea what was going on.
Isn't it said that the Seireitei is much safer than the Rukongai? No one dares to cause trouble in the Seireitei?
However, before he could finish his thought, two powerful and chaotic spiritual pressures, as if entangled with each other, erupted from the Shifengyuan family's city within a city. Then the thick city wall was blown into pieces on the spot. A figure as nimble as a black cat, carrying a golden electric current, suddenly jumped out from the ruins and slammed heavily into the sky-breaking barrier opened by Byakuya.

Then, as if it couldn't bear the force, it bounced out from the sky-breaking barrier, rolled on the ground for more than ten times, and landed on all fours, grinning like a wild cat.

There was no need to look at the man's appearance. Just by looking at his spiritual pressure and posture, Byakuya Kuchiki knew that it was that bastard Yoruichi Shihouin.

Ye Yi got on all fours, suddenly gathered his strength, and without caring about the injuries on his body, he jumped up as if he was trying to avoid something.

And then the next second, a green flame broke through the ruins of the city wall and came roaring.

"Death Gate Opens, Sky Phoenix!!!"

The blue flame phoenix, like a giant beast, rushed out of the smoke and ruins, carrying with it extremely strong spiritual pressure and turbulent energy, and slammed heavily into the place where Shifengyuan Yoruichi was.

However, Byakuya saw clearly that before the explosive attack landed, a black cat had already jumped away.

The black cat jumped back and forth a few times on the flying rocks in the air, and instantly found a new angle, transformed into a human form, suddenly blasted out spiritual pressure and shouted: "Instant Boom·Thunder Beast Battle Form."

But before she could finish her words, she saw Kuchiki Byakuya expressionlessly making several hand seals, while his spiritual pressure surged, and he shouted, "Immortal Technique: Four Pillars Heavenly Prison!"

With a humming sound, a square barrier barrier formed and trapped Shifengin Yoruichi inside.

Ye Yi was stunned for a moment, then he shouted in dissatisfaction: "Hey, Byakuya, what are you doing!?"

"You can fight all you want in your city within your city, but since the fight has already spread to the streets, as the third seat of the Sixth Division, I cannot just turn a blind eye." Kuchiki Byakuya said with a very cold expression.

As if it heard Byakuya's voice, the huge blue-flame phoenix quickly shrank and turned into the appearance of Nami. She stuck out her tongue and said a little embarrassedly, "Sorry, sorry, I accidentally didn't catch it. Don't worry, all these losses will be borne by the Shifengyuan family!"

Baiya felt a little emotional as he looked at the woman who stuck out her tongue.

The third seat of the 10th Division, the Phoenix, Nami.

Rumor has it that she has not yet mastered the shallow attack, so she has no Zanpakutō power.

But no one dares to underestimate her, not even Byakuya, because this guy can beat most of the Shinigami just by fighting!
