Shinigami in the Ninja World

"Did you call for backup?" Dean Hakou shouted with delight.

The Shinigami who had first been slammed into the wall responded, "I already did."

Looking at Naruto standing in the center of the gymnasium, Dean Hakou's expression was complicated, and he had to admit that he had spoken a bit too loudly earlier.

What nonsense like "don't let him get too badly injured."

Bah!

That was just thoughtless drivel.

Facing someone of this "terror level," it was already chaotic enough for them to just protect themselves.

It's not that Naruto's current strength far surpassed the combined efforts of several high-ranking lieutenants.

It's just...

After his first attack, rampaging Naruto abandoned his high mobility advantage and rooted himself in place.

This was very unwise, turning him into a target.

Yet this did not give Dean Hakou and the others an advantage.

That sword brought significant enhancement.

The red spiritual power cloak was not just for show.

It had extremely strong defensive power!

Any Hado below number ten couldn't break through that red cloak.

Even Hado below number thirty, without incantation, could only create a few cracks.

Only high-level Kido, with complete incantation, could cause minimal damage. This was the result Dean Hakou initially hoped for.

But...

With his extreme healing speed, those minor skin and flesh wounds healed in an instant, as if they had never appeared.

Moreover, even while standing still, Naruto possessed formidable attack capabilities.

He inserted his hand into the ground.

The entire gymnasium seemed to become his territory.

Red hands, formed from condensed spiritual power, could rise from any unexpected area to launch attacks.

The "lava-like" spiritual power was not just for appearance.

It truly possessed the properties of lava, with extremely strong burning and corrosive effects.

Upon discovering this property, Dean Hakou and the others tried to dodge as much as possible to avoid severe injury.

The gymnasium was in ruins.

Those few pits, these skylights.

"Principal, I can't take it anymore." A Shinigami drew his sword, his tone heavy, "If this continues, it might endanger the other students..."

He was ready to release his Zanpakuto.

Without release... it would be very difficult to suppress Naruto in this state.

"The backup is too slow," another Shinigami complained. It had already been almost five or six minutes.

Dean Hakou was about to respond when a voice, calm in tone but flippant in content, came from the skylight, "Ah, this is so annoying. When will the 10th Division pick a captain?"

"I still have to handle this."

Dean Hakou looked up sharply, delight in his eyes, "Captain Hirako."

The speaker was a man with long golden hair, wearing the captain's haori, with a tie under his kimono, slouching and looking both contemptuous and restless.

Behind him followed a man with plain black-rimmed glasses and unassuming brown hair, looking harmless.

"Vice-Captain Aizen!"

Shinji Hirako clicked his tongue, "It's been wrecked like this, huh."

"That rampaging student is the fox monster?"

"The spiritual pressure is really..."

"Scary."

He raised his hand.

Inside the gymnasium, rampaging Naruto also noticed the threat from above.

His biological instincts told him.

Both the blond man and the brown-haired man beside him were extremely dangerous.

Swoosh, swoosh—

Two lava-like red tails shot up.

"Captain, watch out!" Sosuke Aizen rushed out urgently, abandoning the incantation.

"Bakudō #39. Enkōsen (円閘扇, Round Lock Fan)."

A swiftly rotating yellow spiritual power shield unfolded in his palm.

Crash—

The tail hands struck, the massive impact shattering it.

The fragments tainted by the red spiritual power emitted a sizzling corrosive hum.

The spiritual power was being burned away.

Sosuke Aizen stared thoughtfully.

This... was quite an interesting ability.

The Tailed Beast's hand continued its rapid advance.

Shinji Hirako sneered, "Sosuke, this is an opponent of similar level to you, take it seriously."

"Don't disgrace the 5th Division."

He drew his sword, flashed in an instant, and slashed at the hands.

The spiritual power was disrupted.

"Captain Hirako, be careful! Naruto's spiritual power is corrosive," Dean Hakou quickly reminded.

Shinji Hirako impatiently said, "Do you think I'm blind? I noticed it a long time ago!"

"His spiritual pressure can't damage my sword."

As he spoke, Sosuke Aizen raised his right hand and chanted an incantation.

"Hadō #33. Sōkatsui (蒼火墜, Blue Fire, Crash Down)!"

A faint, light blue spherical lightning bolt sped towards Naruto.

Boom—

An explosion ensued, rolling out clouds of fine smoke.

The outer layer of the Tailed Beast cloak cracked, a small part shattered, injuring the flesh and blood beneath, rendering it a bloody mess.

But... both the wound and the outer layer of the red spiritual power cloak began to heal rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

"Strong defense," Sosuke Aizen concluded, "and strong regenerative abilities."

"This kind of ability..."

It's too similar to a Hollow.

His eyes showed amazement.

The minor injury made the berserk Naruto even more frenzied. Four tails waved chaotically, rising from the ground, dancing wildly.

"Don't say something that even an idiot could see." Shinji Hirako raised his hand.

He abandoned the incantation.

"Bakudō #62. Hyapporankan (百歩欄干, Hundred Steps Fence)."

Spiritual power congealed into pale purple crystalline rods.

Like rain, they rained down on Naruto, pinning his four massive tails and his limbs to the ground.

They were, of course, corroded, emitting wisps of white smoke.

But at this speed, it would take a long time to dissolve the seal.

"Not that hard to deal with," Shinji Hirako grinned mockingly, "I thought it was a bigger problem and specially applied to the Central 46 to release the Zanpakutō."

"Cut off his spiritual power."

"Without spiritual power, this state should..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

Gurgling—

That layer of spiritual power cloak started to boil, spiritual power floating and surging.

Naruto, whose limbs and tails were sealed, lifted his head and opened his mouth to an eerie, enormous size.

Spiritual power continuously surged out of his body, gathering in front of his mouth, forming a core and absorbing nearby spiritual power, transforming into a massive black orb.

It had immense spiritual pressure.

And a strange spiritual power fluctuation.

"That is..." Dean Hakou's eyes widened in disbelief, exclaiming, "Cero?"

Sosuke Aizen pushed up his glasses.

Highly concentrated spiritual power, spherical, black in color...

All very much aligned with the standard of a "Cero."

This was an ability only "Menos Grande" could use, not on the list of Shinigami skills.

"Interesting!" Shinji Hirako grinned, "But, this isn't a Cero."

"Have your brains been pickled, can't distinguish this spiritual pressure?"

"But this level of fearfulness..."

"Good thing I applied."

He raised his sword and let go of his hand.

The sword didn't fall, it floated in front of him.

"Collapse, Sakanade."

The Zanpakutō's form changed, the hilt expanding into a circular ring.

With a clang, the sword started spinning.

A peculiar fragrance wafted, instantly filling the noses of everyone in the gymnasium.

The world turned upside down.

In that instant.

The Tailed Beast Bomb was fired, but the target was wildly off, shooting high into the sky.

Moments later, it exploded with a roar.

Spiritual power swept, airwaves rolled.

The already ravaged gymnasium couldn't withstand this fierce wind and finally collapsed.

Shinji Hirako raised his hand.

Seizing the moment.

"Bakudō #4. Hainawa (這縄, Crawling Rope)."

Golden spiritual power ropes flew from his palm, binding Naruto's fox head tightly.

Sosuke Aizen was about to descend.

Shinji Hirako stepped ahead, sealing Naruto's "Hakusui" and "Saketsu," the two vital points within a soul's body that maintain spiritual power flow. Damaging them wouldn't endanger the soul's life but would strip away all spiritual power. Similarly, sealing them would stop the flow of spiritual power.

Without the support of spiritual power.

The red cloak gradually receded.

Revealing the appearance of the "host," a blond boy.

The exhaustion of physical strength, spiritual power, and sanity made the still young Naruto fall into a deep sleep.

"Captain Hirako, how should we handle him?" Sosuke Aizen asked with a smile.

Dean Hakou immediately spoke up, "I had him attempt Shikai."

Shinji Hirako glanced at the two, picked up Naruto, and mockingly retorted, "Are you out of your mind?"

"Of course, send him to the 4th Division."

"Such immense spiritual power, the nature of that spiritual power, who knows what damage it has done to his body."

He grinned sarcastically.

"Do you want to send him to the 2nd Division?"
