Urahara Kisuke was about to reply when a person with a powerful aura suddenly approached from a distance.
Both of them were distracted at the same time.
Urahara Kisuke squinted for a long time and said faintly, "The Captain went to the First Division to find the Captain-Commander yesterday, and she hasn't returned to the Squad Barracks since you left. Her cheerful demeanor today probably means she brought good news."
Aozaki Reiji held up two fingers, "Kisuke, those two things are entrusted to you, otherwise I won't have any peace."
"Can you not be so shameless?" Urahara Kisuke glanced at him sideways, "Is that how you ask someone for a favor?"
"Mr. Urahara, please," Aozaki Reiji said with a bow.
"That's more like it." Urahara Kisuke nodded, "Then I'll reluctantly agree to your request."
Hikifune Kirio walked up to the two of them and said with a chuckle, "Reiji got into trouble again?"
"Something like that," Aozaki Reiji raised his head and said without looking away, "But with Kisuke's help, I'll handle everything."
Urahara Kisuke didn't look at him, gazing leisurely at Hikifune Kirio, who had a smile on her face: "Captain, how is the situation? Did Captain-Commander agree?"
"How could there be any unexpected outcome when this Captain personally took action?" Hikifune Kirio said grandly with her hands on her hips, "Captain-Commander has already agreed for me to establish the Technology Development Bureau!"
"He appointed me as the Director of the Technology Development Bureau, and Aozaki, Third Seat as the Special Advisor to the Technology Development Bureau, with a status equivalent to a Vice-Director."
"Urahara, Third Seat, starting today, in the name of the Director of the Technology Development Bureau, I officially appoint you as the Vice-Director of the Technology Development Bureau, responsible for assisting me in establishing the Technology Development Bureau."
"But according to the seating arrangements, shouldn't the Vice-Director be Vice-Captain Sarugaki?" Urahara Kisuke asked timidly, "Why would you choose me, a Third Seat?"
"Because I understand your talent, Kisuke." Hikifune Kirio waved her hand and covered her mouth as she chuckled, "Don't worry, I've already appointed Hiyori as the Head of the Research Department."
Aozaki Reiji raised his hand and asked, "What about Kurotsuchi Mayuri? Should he also be made an advisor?"
"For now, give him an advisor position. I can also provide him with experimental equipment, but he still needs to remain in the Maggot's Nest first."
Hikifune Kirio shook her head,
"After I'm promoted to the Zero Division, you two can decide whether to release him based on the situation."
Aozaki Reiji tilted his head and asked, "Is there a reason?"
"That man is very difficult to control, and I don't have time to slowly train him anymore." Hikifune Kirio smiled slightly, "If you two have the ability in the future, figure out a way to reform him yourselves."
Aozaki Reiji and Urahara Kisuke nodded after hearing this.
In front, figures flickered, and a little girl with several people ran over, pointing at Urahara Kisuke and shouting,
"Baldy, you're slacking off here again! I've been looking for you for ages!"
Urahara Kisuke scratched his cheek, looking somewhat embarrassed as he averted his gaze.
Aozaki Reiji let out a "poof" and burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at, Baldy?"
"What baldy? I clearly have hair, you little brat!"
Saying that, Aozaki Reiji rolled up his sleeves, about to go and teach that little brat a lesson.
Urahara Kisuke stopped him in time.
"Ha, little brat!?" The little girl immediately became furious, "You dare call me a little brat!"
"I'm a woman! How dare you look down on me! You monster who bewitches people with your looks!"
Hikifune Kirio placed her hand on the little girl's head, "Hiyori, calm down."
Hiyori Sarugaki actually obediently listened and settled down, "Yes."
Aozaki Reiji was stunned. What was going on with this brat?
"Well, Aozaki Reiji, I'll take my leave now. Do come visit often." Hikifune Kirio waved her hand and pulled Hiyori towards the Squad Barracks.
"I'll be leaving too." Urahara Kisuke exchanged a glance with Reiji and followed them.
After bidding farewell to the Twelfth Division, Aozaki Reiji returned to the Sixth District, where the Squad Barracks of the Second Division and Sixth Division were located.
Bypassing the Second Division's Squad Barracks, he went directly to his private training ground… ahem, the Maggot's Nest, where criminals were managed.
Before entering the Maggot's Nest, he signaled the Inspection Team Squad members to disable the surveillance of the video bugs in the regular prison.
After all, beating prisoners wasn't exactly something good to talk about, and others wouldn't know he was doing it for training.
Perhaps those wise men and Judges of the Central 46, with nothing better to do or wanting to intentionally target him,
might use his violent tendencies as an excuse to turn him from a prison manager into a dangerous individual, on par with these criminals.
Activating Kyōka Suigetsu in advance, Aozaki Reiji nodded with satisfaction.
The strongest Illusion-type Zanpakuto, although it couldn't help the user unleash combat power beyond their Reiryoku level like Ryujin Jakka.
But the mere fact that it could deceive the Great Spirit Book Corridor was completely sufficient.
It was simply an essential divine artifact for schemers and ambitious individuals in the Soul Society.
Pushing open the large door, Aozaki Reiji entered the dungeon and prepared a few red pills.
These were high-concentration Reishi drugs developed by Urahara Kisuke.
For Captain-class Shinigami, when they were overly exhausted, just one pill could quickly restore their Reiryoku.
The drawback was that if the Spirit Body wasn't strong enough, it might suffer damage due to the impact of suddenly replenishing a large amount of Reiryoku.
Aozaki Reiji stood casually, shirtless, among the crowd.
These guys had indeed forgotten the fear of being taught a lesson by Aozaki Reiji last time.
One by one, they charged forward like madmen, one after another.
From now on, he would only use Reiatsu and Hakuda techniques to fight these guys and knock them all down.
These guys wouldn't hold back at all when they attacked.
The effectiveness of the training was directly proportional to the strength of these prisoners.
Reiji was truly happy to cultivate by fighting with them.
During the process of slaughter, hovering between life and death, Reiryoku was constantly consumed and replenished, and Reiryoku increased very quickly.
Whether or not the Reiryoku level could be raised depended on how tough these prisoners' lives were.
Barring any accidents, this process would not be short.
Fortunately, the Central 46 would always arrest and imprison a batch of people for no reason.
Even if he accidentally killed a sparring partner, he could get timely replenishment.
Aozaki Reiji took a deep breath and ran wildly towards the gathering place of several Vice-Captain-class prisoners.
They were the strongest in this prison.
Stronger Captain-class individuals wouldn't be imprisoned here.
When they committed crimes, they were usually sent directly to the Central Underground Great Prison.
"Brat, you still dare to come?" The tall, bald prisoner grinned, swinging his huge palm towards Reiji.
Gusts of palm wind rushed at him, and the shadow cast by the palm under the light covered Reiji's entire upper body.
But in the next second, the bald prisoner couldn't even see Reiji's movements, only feeling a blur in front of his eyes. His entire body was sent flying backward like a cannonball, as if struck by a giant wave.
"What kind of talk is that?"
Aozaki Reiji shook his hand, laughing confidently and freely.
"I wasn't the one who lost last time!"
