Bleach: Me and Aizen

For a moment, Yamamoto Genryusai felt that the image of the young man before him seemed to overlap with that of Kyouraku Shunsui, who had first joined his ranks hundreds of years ago.

His previously calm mind, honed by years of practicing calligraphy, was now filled with turbulence.

Having one Kyouraku Shunsui in Gotei 13 was already embarrassing enough.

If another Lieutenant or even a Captain appeared in the same vein as Kyouraku Shunsui in the future...

Just thinking about that possibility made Yamamoto Genryusai feel a tightness in his chest.

Then, he realized the key point in Yu Mikami's words.

"…So you mean to say that the reason you refuse is that you do not wish to serve in the 1st Division, and not for any other reason?"

Yamamoto Genryusai's voice was calm, as if the myriad thoughts that had just flashed through his mind were nonexistent.

"That's right! That is my motivation for striving forward, my life goal," Yu Mikami replied earnestly, nodding.

Yamamoto Genryusai took a deep breath, trying to clear the unpleasant memories that resurfaced in his mind.

Looking at Yu Mikami standing before him, he spoke again, "Do you know about the Captain of the 13th Division?"

Yu Mikami was slightly taken aback. "Ukitake Juhachiro, one of the oldest Captains in Soul Society."

Upon hearing Yamamoto Genryusai's question, he felt a little puzzled.

Could it be that Ukitake Juhachiro had another identity?

Oh… apparently, he did. It was said that during the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, that guy seemed to become some kind of right-hand man to the Soul King.

Before his transmigration, Yu Mikami hadn't read much of the Thousand-Year Blood War manga.

When he first entered the arc, he did follow it with great interest for a while, but he quickly lost interest due to the grating combat sequences reminiscent of old ladies with bound feet and tossed it aside.

Thus, although he had heard that Ukitake Juhachiro was the right-hand man of the Soul King, he had no idea what that right hand actually did.

Could it be that every so often, Ukitake would have to go to the Soul King Palace to help the Soul King with some indescribable handiwork?

How strange.

While Yu Mikami was imagining these odd scenarios, Yamamoto Genryusai suddenly said, "The Ukitake family is a lower noble family in Seireitei, standing on the side of the Protectorate during this turmoil."

"If you actively apply to join the 13th Division, it would mean you are declaring your stance."

"Yu Mikami, are you prepared for this...?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Mikami finally understood what all of Yamamoto Genryusai's questions meant.

No wonder Sōjun Kuchiki had specifically come to remind him to be cautious of the whirlpool of power struggles.

Even someone as transcendent as Yamamoto Genryusai had been drawn into it; it seemed this internal conflict was indeed serious.

Under Yamamoto Genryusai's gaze, he shrugged.

"Captain-Commander, if you're worried that I will get involved in the intrigues of the nobility, there's really no need."

"Not to brag, but my greatest strength is that I really hate trouble."

"To me, power struggles are even scarier than Teacher Muneyoshi; I'll avoid them as far as I can and won't provoke them no matter what."

Muneyoshi, kneeling nearby, couldn't help but feel his blood pressure rise upon hearing this.

A flicker of surprise crossed Yamamoto Genryusai's eyes.

He truly hadn't expected that this young student would give such a response.

After contemplating for a moment, he slowly said, "Do you intend to completely stay out of it?"

Yu Mikami instinctively opened his mouth to nod.

However, halfway through the gesture, he stopped.

After pondering for a few seconds, he replied, "Under normal circumstances, I would definitely stay out of it."

"But I have a friend named Sōjun Kuchiki, who is the heir of the Kuchiki Family... Given his status, he will likely be drawn into this turmoil sooner or later."

"If one day he finds himself in danger and no one can save him, then I will go help him."

After thinking for a moment, he smiled and added, "That said, it probably won't come to that. After all, his father is the 6th Division Captain, one of the strongest Bleach in Soul Society. How could he possibly let him fall into danger?"

Looking at Yu Mikami, Yamamoto Genryusai remained silent for a long time, as if he were contemplating something.

Yu Mikami glanced at Muneyoshi, who was kneeling beside him, silently asking if he could go back.

Muneyoshi shot him a glare.

If you dare to leave before the Captain-Commander has spoken, I'll break your legs when you get back!

Though it was merely a glance, Yu Mikami was still keenly able to read the underlying meaning.

So this is what it's like to be around people from the Edo period; they're really quite barbaric.

Just as Yu Mikami began to wonder if Yamamoto Genryusai had fallen asleep, the latter suddenly spoke.

"Yu Mikami, from now on, you are to come to the 1st Division squad building once a week. This old man will personally teach you some knowledge related to combat."

"The specific time will be conveyed to you by the messengers."

"Now go back."

With that, Yamamoto Genryusai slowly turned away, quietly looking at the calligraphy hanging on the wall, no longer speaking.

Yu Mikami blinked in surprise, then instinctively looked over at Muneyoshi.

At that moment, Muneyoshi wore a ghostly expression on his face.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto… was he really going to take Yu Mikami as a disciple?!

The instant this thought popped into his head, Muneyoshi almost gasped out loud.

Since the establishment of Shin'o Academy, Captain-Commander Yamamoto had only taken one class of students, and even then, it was merely in his capacity as the principal, occasionally providing guidance.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto, who hadn't taken a disciple for hundreds of years, was actually going to personally teach Yu Mikami!

Muneyoshi looked at Yu Mikami with excitement; if it weren't for the inappropriate setting, he would have wanted to jump up and cheer.

However, he saw that Yu Mikami wore a conflicted expression, seemingly annoyed by the trouble and contemplating whether to refuse.

Muneyoshi felt a shiver run down his spine.

He quickly stood up, grabbed Yu Mikami, bent down, and retreated backwards in small steps out of the room.

After exiting through the door, he knelt down and slowly closed the paper door.

Once he had done all this, he let out a sigh of relief and shot Yu Mikami an angry glare, dragging him away.

It wasn't until they were several hundred meters away from Yamamoto Genryusai's house that he lowered his voice and said angrily, "Idiot! What were you thinking just now? You were going to refuse the Captain-Commander's kindness?!"

Yu Mikami laughed helplessly. "I wasn't going to refuse."

"Not going to refuse my ass! I've taught you for half a year; how could I not know what you're thinking?"

Muneyoshi was so upset that he felt unwell.

Gaining the personal instruction of Captain-Commander Yamamoto was something many Bleach would only dare to dream of, and this kid actually wanted to refuse!

The mere thought of his student possibly becoming Captain-Commander Yamamoto's personal disciple made him involuntarily grin.

But then, he suddenly froze.

Wait… something seemed off.

If Yu Mikami actually became Captain-Commander Yamamoto's disciple, in the future, when he made a name for himself, people would probably say he was a student of Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

Thinking of this, Muneyoshi suddenly felt helpless and pale.

Why on earth did I stop him?!
