Just as Shin was about to leave, he suddenly sensed something and froze.

“You’ve hidden yourself well, but I still found you. Come out. Don’t make me drag you out.”

Shin glanced to the side.

“How did you find me?”

A woman wearing a white captain’s haori walked out from a short distance away, her indifferent eyes fixed on Shin, her body exuding a bloody aura.

She held a Zanpakutō, but its curve was noticeably more pronounced than other Zanpakutō.

“Unohana Retsu?”

Shin didn’t answer her question, instead asking about her identity.

The captain of the Fourth Division of the Gotei 13. But she was completely different from the gentle and peaceful Fourth Division captain Shin knew. Even from a distance, Shin could feel the killing intent and bloodlust emanating from her.

“A human who has broken into the Soul Society… you know me?” Unohana Retsu’s body erupted with astonishing killing intent, her Reiatsu alone destroying everything in the vicinity.

“<Amenominaka.>”

A flicker in Shin’s eyes, and he transported her to another dimension. The Reiatsu she was unleashing could attract other captains.

“Are you the captain of the Eleventh Division?”

Looking at the murderous Unohana, who was completely different from the one he knew, Shin couldn’t help but ask.

Could this be before she became the captain of the Fourth Division, when she was still Unohana Yachiru, the captain of the Eleventh Division?

The Gotei 13 each had their own duties. The Fourth Division was the medical squad, while the Eleventh Division was the combat squad.

Before she became the gentle Unohana Retsu, she was the greatest villain in the history of the Soul Society, the first Kenpachi, and the founder of the Eleventh Division’s philosophy.

Unohana Retsu was undoubtedly one of the strongest fighters in the entire Soul Society. Excluding the members of the Zero Division, only the Captain-Commander could suppress her now.

“For a human, you know a lot about the Soul Society.” Unohana Retsu’s expression was extremely cold.

‘What timeline did I cross into?’

Shin ignored Unohana and clutched his head, feigning a headache.

If Unohana Retsu was still the captain of the Eleventh Division, then it had to be at least a few hundred years before the start of the story.

Unohana Retsu was the first Kenpachi, and Kenpachi Zaraki was the eleventh. Each captain of the Eleventh Division was a Kenpachi.

After ten more changes in captains, the start of the story wouldn’t be too far off.

Though the captains of the combat squad died quickly, who knew how long it would be before Kenpachi Zaraki became captain and the story began.

‘Couldn’t you have dropped me at the start?’ Shin complained to the System.

“ARE YOU IGNORING ME?” Unohana was extremely irritable. She drew her blade and slashed at Shin without any hesitation.

Her body released a killing intent honed from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a terrifying Reiatsu sweeping across the entire ice world of Amenominaka.

CLANG!!!

“Honestly, we have no quarrel. Why resort to this? And how did you find me?”

Shin didn’t believe she had just happened to be there. She must have found him and then rushed over.

When he first arrived in the world of Bleach, Shin had specifically scouted the area but hadn’t found Unohana. So she must have come later.

Unohana didn’t answer Shin’s question, slashing at him again and again without any mercy.

Of course, since they had no relationship, there was no need for mercy.

Shin held the Shodai Kitetsu, easily parrying her strikes. As a Supreme Grade Sword—it had no problem clashing with a Zanpakutō.

Moreover, Unohana hadn’t even released her Shikai, let alone her Bankai.

“You’ve got serious skill, Makes sense for someone bold enough to invade the Soul Society.”

Unohana’s eyes were filled with a strong battle intent. The Unohana of this time wasn’t the gentle captain of the medical squad—she was a vicious villain, infamous throughout the Soul Society.

“Looks like we have to fight. I can’t guarantee your safety. Use your Bankai. Let me see the power of a Zanpakutō.”

Shin instantly appeared behind Unohana, and with a single-handed swing of his blade, a blindingly fast slash sent her flying, her blood staining her white haori red as it splattered across the ice.

Shin’s expression was calm. Even facing a beautiful woman like Unohana, he showed no mercy.

A massive gash stretched across Unohana’s back, from her neck all the way down to her waist.

Despite such a severe injury, Unohana’s expression didn’t change, as if she wasn’t hurt at all. She stood up and stared at Shin.

How long had it been? How long since she’d last been wounded? Unohana was growing more and more excited.

Yes, Unohana’s personality was that of a madwoman. Battle maniacs were basically all crazy.

Looking at the blood on the ice, Shin found himself wanting to complain—aren’t Soul Reapers just souls? How can they bleed?

He decided to just roll with it. No point getting hung up on this world’s rules. Shin easily parried all of Unohana’s sword techniques.

Unohana prided herself on having mastered all schools and styles of swordsmanship, which was why she was also called Unohana Yachiru.

Her swordsmanship was extremely strong. In this aspect, even that old man Yamamoto might not be able to defeat her.

Well, only in terms of sword technique. In terms of overall strength, old man Yamamoto was definitely stronger.

In fact, old man Yamamoto could be considered one of the ceiling-level powers of the Bleach world.

Both major villains—Aizen and Yhwach—were very wary of him.

Looking across the entire Bleach world, including the protagonist with his plot armor, old man Yamamoto’s combat strength would at least rank in the top five.

The title of “Strongest Soul Reaper” was not just for show.

It seemed he had gotten sidetracked. Unohana’s combat strength was very strong, but in front of Shin, her swordsmanship was still not enough.

Her technique was indeed slightly superior to Shin’s—after all, Unohana had studied the way of the sword for hundreds of years—but her raw power was lacking.

Zzzzzzzzzzz!

Another wound appeared on Unohana’s body, but her aura grew stronger.

“Not bad. I’ve learned a lot from you.” Shin couldn’t help but say to Unohana.

Unohana’s sword style had already been copied by Shin.

In terms of swordsmanship, Unohana was indeed strong. Whether these techniques were useful to Shin or not, he would copy them first.

This wasn’t a copy made with a System Card—it was done using his own eyes’ replication ability.

Such techniques could be easily copied with the Nine-Tomoe Rinne-Tenseigan.

“You’re strong…”

Unohana said seriously. At this moment, Shin had earned Unohana’s recognition. Only those stronger than her could earn her recognition.

“You too.” Shin was telling the truth—Unohana was not weak.

And this wasn’t even her full strength. Unohana had yet to use her Zanpakutō’s Shikai and Bankai.

Unohana’s Shikai, Minazuki, was for healing, but her Bankai was powerful, capable of dissolving anything it cut into blood.
