Death: Captain Millennium

"You little brat!"

Captain Yamamoto looked at Lin Yu in front of him and saw that he was arrogant and rude to him at first, but became respectful in the blink of an eye. The thought of him being arrogant at first and respectful later was really funny, so he couldn't help but scold with laughter.

"Master Shan, please don't say that! Back then, you personally taught me the art of slashing and white fighting. In a way, you can be considered half my master! So it's only natural for you to teach Rukia. Why would I have any objection?"

Hearing the scolding from Captain Yamamoto, Lin Yu didn't care at all and responded with a flattering look on his face.

"Is it settled?"

At this time, Captain Yamamoto put away his smile and looked at him seriously.

"Of course! If I can't accomplish this myself, I'm afraid no one else in the entire Soul Society can do it!"

When Lin Yu heard this, he immediately straightened his back and answered confidently. After all, he had made a big promise before, claiming that he would be able to ask the Zero Squad to help repair Renji's Zanpakutō. If he failed to complete the task in the end, he would be too embarrassed to come back.

"Teacher! Can Renji's sword really be repaired?"

Rukia felt that Lin Yu's words were the most beautiful voice she had ever heard in her life.

"Of course. Don't you see who I am, your teacher? It's just a small matter."

Lin Yu was so proud that his mouth was tilted to the sky.

"Rukia, go get Renji. He needs his master to repair the sword."

Lin Yu apparently sent Rukia to the Sixth Division to find someone, but in fact he had something to discuss with Captain Yamamoto.

"Oh! I'll go right away."

Rukia didn't suspect anything and rushed to the Sixth Division quickly.

"Wait a moment!"

Lin Yu called out to Lukia. It was not appropriate for her to go out and meet people in her current state. She still had to maintain her image.

"Star Shelter!"

The gentle power of the stars slowly flowed into Rukia's body, and in the blink of an eye, her bruised face returned to normal, her head shape returned to an onion head, and her Death Stranding Suit was no longer tattered.

"Go!"

Only then did Lin Yu feel at ease and let Rukia go find Renci.

……

"Hmph, tell me, brat! You went to such great lengths to get Rukia out of the way. What exactly do you want to tell me? Don't think I can't see through your little scheme!"

Captain Yamamoto's eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and he stared closely at Lin Yu in front of him.

He knew full well that he could have just sent any ordinary soldier from the First Division to inform Renji. However, he insisted on asking Rukia to make the trip herself. There must be some secret hidden in this, and it must be something very important that Rukia must not know.

"I saw the Spirit King!"

Facing Captain Yamamoto's questioning, Lin Yu took a deep breath, slowly raised his hand, and muttered something. A light blue light burst out from his hand, quickly spreading out, forming a transparent barrier that enveloped the two of them. After doing this, Lin Yu lowered his voice and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Captain Yamamoto's eyes, which had been narrowed to a slit, suddenly opened, their gleaming light gleaming. A hint of surprise crossed his wrinkled face; he had clearly not expected Lin Yu to reveal such shocking news. After all, the Spirit King was the most mysterious and powerful being in the entire Three Realms. To be able to see him in person was no small feat!

"The Spirit King woke up from his slumber, and I fought him."

Lin Yu is very good at flattering himself. It was clearly the Emperor Ziwei who injured the King of Spirits, but he shamelessly took the credit for himself.

However, the Purple Star Emperor is a reflection of his inner thoughts, so it can barely be considered that he took action. As long as one is thick-skinned enough, there is nothing wrong with this statement.

"I knew that the two previous tremors in the Three Realms were caused by you, kid. I didn't expect that you and the Spirit King would actually fight each other."

Captain Yamamoto felt the sudden shock of the three realms in Soul Society. He immediately understood that it must be caused by Lin Yu, but he didn't know the specific reason.

"Haha, not entirely. The first one should be the vibration caused by my fight with the monk, and the second one was with the Spirit King."

Lin Yu touched his head. Only then did he realize how big a commotion he had caused in the Spirit King Palace. Even the three realms were shaken because of it.

"Not only that, the Spirit King seems to have some problems with his control over the Three Realms..."

Lin Yu took a deep breath and began to recount every detail of his conversation with the Soul King at the Soul King Palace to Captain Yamamoto. He intentionally avoided any information about Yhwach. For the time being, he didn't want the Captain to know about this too soon.

As Lin Yu's story goes deeper, shocking secrets are revealed one after another: the mysterious ancestors of the five nobles, the Ise family, one of the five nobles that was artificially concealed, the Eight Mirror Swords, and the unknown god that seems to be hiding in the dark... Each and every one of these things hits Captain Yamamoto's heart like a heavy hammer, making his originally calm expression become even more solemn.

For a moment, the entire room fell into a deathly silence, with only Lin Yu's low voice echoing in the air. Captain Yamamoto stood quietly, his brow furrowed, his eyes revealing deep worry.

Faced with such a complicated and unimaginable situation, the captain who has always been known for his strength and decisiveness felt helpless.

"Ugh!"

Finally, after listening to Lin Yu's last words, Captain Yamamoto slowly raised his head and sighed deeply. This sigh contained endless helplessness and fatigue, as if the pressure on his shoulders had instantly increased a lot.

Although he has already stood at the pinnacle of the world of the God of Death, he still feels that he is unable to reach the realm beyond the level of the God of Death.

What's worse is that, judging from what Lin Yu said, these seemingly isolated incidents are likely to be related to each other, and may even involve another deity of equal status to the Spirit King. Such a situation is obviously far beyond the control and handling of Captain Yamamoto.

"Little devil! It seems that I am really old. I can't handle everything you said. You can only rely on yourself."

Captain Yamamoto patted Lin Yu on the shoulder. At this moment, he, who always faced all problems with a resolute attitude, looked exhausted, which made people feel indescribable sadness.

"Master Shan..."

Lin Yu looked at the captain with a complicated expression, not knowing what to say.

Yes! Yamamoto is old. He is no longer the high-spirited Yamamoto Shigekuni, nor the tough guy who faced Yhwach and the Stern Cross Knights without changing his expression. He is old!
