The captain complained in his heart and stared at Kenpachi Zaraki with a sour face: "Captain Zaraki, who do you want to recommend?"

"Vice-Captain Duke of the Fourth Division has the strength and vision to serve as an evaluator. What do the captain-general and other captains think?" Kenpachi Zaraki grinned, revealing his ferocious side.

“Second!”

“Second!”

“…”

There was a unanimous voice of approval, and in the end it was passed unanimously.

The captain thought for a while and nodded, "Vice Captain Duke of the Fourth Division is indeed qualified, so it's decided to be him."

“Haha, sorry, sorry!” Rangiku scratched his head, bowed and apologized to the captains, then looked at Toushirou on the field worriedly, and said to himself: “This may be the strongest opponent you have ever met in Soul Society… Don’t be careless, Toushirou!”

"I take up a spot."

"Including this old man, all votes passed!"

Others' captain assessment opponents were captains of the 12th division, but he was only a vice-captain. Even if he won, what would it matter? After becoming the captain, he still had to look up to others everywhere.

Finally, Unohana Retsu is well-known in Soul Society, but everyone knows that this woman is cruel and ruthless, just like her vice-captain, smiling on the surface, but actually extremely treacherous. The captain pulled her over because he was afraid that Duke would enjoy the chopping too much and accidentally kill Toushirou...

Secondly, Komamura Sajin is loyal, modest, and has a good character and strength. Among all the captains, he is one of the few who does not give the captain-general a headache. In addition, he was promoted by the captain-general, so he is considered the captain-general's confidant. His upright character can represent the Gotei 13. If Toushirou's strength can impress him, other captains will not care.

"The Kuchiki family cannot acknowledge an unfair match." Kuchiki Byakuya shook his head slightly.

After selecting three captains for the appraisal, the captain-general quickly obtained permission from the Central 46th Office and began the appraisal of the new captain of the 10th Division in a secret room isolated by a murderous stone.

Rangiku covered her face and dared not look: "Idiot, I already said Bankai!"

Matsumoto Rangiku's eyes lit up, she breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded desperately, "There is absolutely no doubt about Toushirou's talent, he is a genius."

With the unanimous vote including the captain-general, Toushirou naturally had no right to object. While silently enduring this unforgettable humiliation, he vowed to impress everyone and prove with his strength that he was worthy of being the captain of the 10th Division!

The captain's face turned sour, and he left behind three captains, Komamura Sajin, Unohana Retsu, and Kuchiki Byakuya, and drove away the other idlers. The captain chose these three instead of others, not because of his likes and dislikes, but because of his own reasons.

Of the two people on the field, Dong Shilang was more resentful. He was showing his talent instead of winning the battle. Did everyone think that he was not as good as a vice-captain?

"Let me do it!"

Rangiku froze when she heard that, and turned around to see the captain-general and three other captains looking at her sternly.

"Vice-Captain Rangiku is upset. Maybe that kid can fight with my vice-captain effectively!" Unohana Retsu said and covered his mouth with his hands and smiled. He probably didn't believe it himself.

"I have no doubts, Captain-General!" Dong Shilang looked at Duke angrily, wishing he could beat Duke up immediately to prove his strength.

"Even this deputy captain looks down on me?" Dong Shilang gritted his teeth in anger. The deputy captain opposite him looked listless and pale, and was simply looking down on him.

"Very good!" The captain nodded, ignoring Dong Shilang's irritability. As a young man, his temper needs to be tempered. Then, he asked Duke: "Deputy Captain of the Fourth Division, do you have any questions?"

"How can such a major event be done without me as a witness?"

As soon as the captain finished speaking, Toushirou drew his Zanpakutō, appeared behind Duke in an instant, and slashed at the back of his neck.

This secret room has a typical Soul Society style, whether it is the walls, the floor or the ceiling, it is pure white, depressing and solemn. Moreover, the secret room has been transformed by the Ghost Path, and the length, width and height are exaggerated and scary, enough for the new captain who is taking the test to do whatever he wants.

"Vice-Captain Rangiku of the Tenth Division, the battle between the two sides must be based on fairness. Your actions just now can be regarded as revealing information." Komamura Sajin said in a muffled voice. His voice was filtered through the hood, adding a bit of majesty.

"Where the Dao is, it is our duty!"

First of all, Byakuya Kuchiki is the 28th head of the Kuchiki family, one of the four great noble families of the Soul Society. Behind him are the nobles of Soul Society, and the Sixth Division is also an unshakable noble-exclusive team. When the new captain of the Tenth Division takes office, others can be missing, but Byakuya Kuchiki is indispensable, because his affirmation is the recognition of the nobles.

Dongshiro was confused. It was clearly a captain assessment, so why did they have a vice-captain to test him? Was the other party very strong? If he was really strong, why didn't they let him take the vacant captain position? Or... was he, Hitsugaya Dongshiro, underestimated?

Toushirou gritted his teeth and lowered his head, not noticing Matsumoto Rangiku who was desperately winking at him.

"Toushirou! Bankai, you must use Bankai! Don't be complacent, that bastard is much stronger than you think!" Off the court, Matsumoto Rangiku, who was watching, folded her hands into a trumpet and shouted at the impatient Toushirou. "Vice-Captain Matsumoto, please keep quiet."

After the captain said this, the three captains had different expressions. As I said before, if Dong Shilang did not show the ability to match the captain, the three captains would reject him on the spot, and they would never turn a blind eye just because the captain favored him.

"In addition to this old man, three more captains are needed to witness this assessment. Who of you wants to participate?"

The captain stared at Rangiku until she became uneasy. Then he said, "This is the only time. It won't happen again!"

Duke doesn't care. He likes beating up newbies the most.

"Captain, can we start?" Dong Shilang said, unable to bear it any longer.

"Since this concerns the Seireitei, we have no choice but to do it."

“For the sake of Soul Society, we should offer our humble contribution.” All the captains said that they must be present to watch the fun.

“…”

When both parties were ready, the captain stepped forward and his powerful and deep voice spread throughout the venue: "Hitsugaya Toushirou, do you have any questions?"

It's no wonder that the captain-general has such a wild imagination. Including himself, every god of death with excellent swordsmanship in the Soul Society over the past two thousand years has been a pushover.

"start!"

"Very good. Since you have no doubts, then the 10th Squadron's trust in the captain's assessment will officially begin." The captain paused for a second and said, "Vice Captain Duke, what you need to do is very simple. Just let the other party show their talents to the fullest."

"Why did it turn out like this?" Duke was still confused. Seeing Dong Shilang staring at him angrily, he sighed helplessly, feeling that he was being blamed by someone.

Don't underestimate the recognition of the nobles. In the feudal society of Soul Society with its strict hierarchy, even a captain-level figure can't take a single step without their recognition.

“I want to know how many people voted for me when I was represented!”

The blade was icy and slashed at Duke who was unaware of the situation. The next moment, Duke's head and body were torn apart. Dong Shilang felt a little bit reluctant when he saw this. He thought to himself that he was too naive and actually involved Duke with his anger towards others. It was too irrational.

Thinking of this, Dong Shilang slightly retracted his hand, and the blade instead swept across Duke's collar.

"I won..." Dong Shilang had just thought halfway when he saw Duke turn his head and glance at him coldly.

Swish! His eyes blurred, and when he came back to his senses, Dong Shilang saw Duke holding his Zanpakutō with two fingers, and a white lightning condensed from the fingertips of one hand and pointed at his forehead. The sudden scene caught Dong Shilang off guard. The scorching white lightning not only did not have a trace of warmth, but made him feel as cold as falling into an ice cave.

So fast...what just happened? With sweat running down his cheeks, Toushirou looked at Duke in shock. Could it be that the vice-captains of Team 13 are all so powerful? Impossible, Rangiku is just a nobody! (End of this chapter)
