Secret Hado, the exclusive Kido of the Zero Division.
Or, to be more precise, it was the exclusive Kido of Ichibe Hyosube. At least as far as Tokikaze remembered, only he had performed Secret Hado: Sannodō — Teppūsatsu.
This Hado could shatter the dome of Yhwach's Blut Vene Anhaben, demonstrating its power.
At the same time, Secret Hado should also be exclusive to the Zero Division, conceptually surpassing ordinary Kido.
Yamada Seinosuke's talent in Kaido was unquestionable.
He was a once-in-a-millennium genius, and that was no exaggeration.
If it weren't for Unohana Retsu's Zanpakuto, which had healing abilities, Yamada Seinosuke might still be the most skilled Soul Reaper in terms of kaido.
However, developing Secret Hado based solely on talent was beyond the description of genius.
Tokikaze's gaze towards Yamada Seinosuke became increasingly peculiar.
Even though Yamada Seinosuke had an astonishing psychological resilience, he still felt a creeping sense of discomfort.
"Ahem, Captain Tokikaze, my words carry no lies," he attempted to establish more trust between them. "While Secret Hado is exclusive to the Zero Division, there is some evidence to support it. Captain once mentioned to me one of the Zero Division members, Kirinji Tenjiro. His Blood Pond Hell and White Bone Hell are a kind of application of Secret Hado..."
Tokikaze pondered.
He didn't know much about Kirinji Tenjiro, but he understood how effective Blood Pond Hell and White Bone Hell were.
In terms of healing properties alone, there might not be anyone who surpassed Kirinji Tenjiro.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Urahara Kisuke's scientific healing methods had certain drawbacks.
Even Kisuke Urahara, to some extent, borrowed Kirinji Tenjiro's abilities to some extent.
"How long will it take to develop Secret Hado?"
Tokikaze interrupted Yamada Seinosuke's long explanation. To him, those were just empty words, and there was no need to listen further.
After all, everyone had their own specialty.
He was well aware of all those terms, but when combined, they became incomprehensible.
"Uh, I-I can't guarantee," Yamada Seinosuke sounded a bit unsure. "I've only confirmed the research direction. If everything goes smoothly, maybe three to five months, if not..."
He didn't continue, but Tokikaze understood what he meant.
It could be three to five years, or even thirty to fifty years of research.
"Well, I can at least promise this," Tokikaze said after a moment of contemplation. "On top of the research on Secret Hado, I entrust you with all aspects of body alteration and Reishi analysis. As for the Central 46, leave it to me."
Yamada Seinosuke took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"Thank you so much!"
He showed a deep sense of gratitude, bowing so low that he nearly bumped his head on the floor.
"About the data of this Adjuchas, just send it to the Ninth Division once you're done."
After saying that, Tokikaze brushed off the non-existent dust on his uniform, not even looking back, and left the Fourth Division barracks.
Originally, he just wanted to analyze the Adjuchas to see how far Aizen's research had progressed.
Yamada Seiji's request was an unexpected benefit.
For him, the research on Hollows and Soul Reaper was a walk in the park.
Hopefully, Yamada Seiji could bring him some surprises.
Now, it was time to go back to the Ninth Division to deal with the Kuragawa Clan.
Tokikaze just had to wait regarding Ikkaku Madarame and Jushiro Ukitake's verdict from the Central 46 Chamber.
To be frank, waiting for those old fogeys would take a while, but he didn't mind for now.
...
First Division, Captain's office.
Yamamoto Genryusai sat in front of his desk, dealing with the paperworks submitted by other Divisions.
The Hollowification incident left a significant impact on the entire Gotei 13.
Even though three years had passed, things had not gotten back to normal.
Currently, the Third and Twelfth Divisions still didn't have a Captain, leaving those Divisions unable to do their job. All of them were forwarded to the First Division, where Yamamoto Genryusai personally handled them.
It was extremely inefficient.
After annotating on a document, Yamamoto Genryusai moved his body slightly. Suddenly, a loud sound like firecrackers resounded.
"Recommendation to appoint the Vice-Captain of the Fifth Division, Gin Ichimaru as the Captain of the Third Division?"
Yamamoto Genryusai's gaze stayed on the next document, "Graduated from the Shin'o Academy in one year, shortly after graduation took the position of the Third Seat in the Fifth Division, diligent at work, the only hobby is taking a stroll in Seireitei..."
"According to the information provided by Captain Aizen, Gin Ichimaru has already mastered Bankai and is pretty skilled in Shunpo and Hakuda."
Yamamoto Genryusai closed his eyes slightly, reclining on the chair, recalling the information related to Gin Ichimaru.
Appointing a Captain is a very important thing and there was no room for an error in that.
Just because he was recommended by a Captain, it didn't mean Gin Ichimaru would be appointed as a Captain.
"Perhaps we can try the Proficiency Test again..."
Thinking of this, Yamamoto Genryusai's old face suddenly darkened, as if he remembered a guy who annoyed him.
At this moment, Chojiro Sasakibe walked in with a gloomy expression.
"Captain-Commander, Captain Ukitake has submitted a mission report."
"Regarding the Level 1 incident where all members of the Ryodoji Clan were killed..."
Yamamoto Genryusai's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a serious expression appeared on his aged face.
"The details!"
Pressure filled the office, covering the entire room, and even the temperature in the air rose.
Chojiro Sasakibe, who had followed Yamamoto Genryusai for two thousand years, had long been accustomed to his temperament and showed no signs of nervousness.
He then fully described the crimes that Ukitake Jusanro committed.
And when Tokikaze's name was mention, even the patient Yamamoto Genryusai couldn't help but twitch his eyelids, and the flames in his pupils became more intense.
How long had it been?
Clearly, he had just warned this guy, and in just a few days, he had caused another trouble again.
If he remembered correctly, this guy had not even been a Captain for more than a month, right?
"Ukitake Jusanro was killed on the spot by Captain Tokikaze. The remaining Ukitake Clan members were all imprisoned after returning to Seireitei."
Chojiro Sasakibe said in a low voice, "Now this news has spread among the nobles, causing quite a commotion in the Noble District."
"The Noble Assembly may be held early because of this..."
