Chapter 842: [842] : You’ve Got a Point, but That Doesn’t Change the Fact You’re Lazy

~ Next Bonus, 200!

--------------------------------------------------

Shin and Unohana enjoyed a quiet drink at the izakaya, completely undisturbed.

Yoruichi had actually come looking for Shin, but she couldn’t find him. She had only made it as far as the 4th Division barracks, where Isane informed her that Shin had gone out with her captain. Unable to find Shin, Yoruichi was now fuming.

As for Shutara Senjumaru, she had already returned to the Soul King Palace. Though she could leave from time to time, she couldn’t be away for too long.

The last time she had stayed in the Seireitei for so long was because she was on a special mission—to recruit Shin into Squad Zero. Unfortunately, she had been mercilessly rejected.

——————————————

"It’s been really calm lately," Shin said to Unohana as he drank.

"How would you know it’s been calm?"

Unohana couldn’t help but ask. She had been keeping an eye on what Shin was up to lately.

She knew he spent most of his time at the Shin’ō Academy and didn’t seem to care about the affairs of the various squads. How did he know things were so calm?

"It’s simple. I just have to look at the 4th Division. There are hardly any patients, which means things are calm, right?"

Shin said with a smile.

"Actually, it’s not entirely calm. There’s been some trouble in the Rukongai. A few Hollows have appeared and caused some destruction."

Unohana explained the situation to Shin.

After hearing this, Shin instantly thought of Aizen. After all, Hueco Mundo was practically under Aizen’s control at this point.

Of course, Shin hadn’t been to Hueco Mundo in a long time, so he didn’t know what the situation was like there now.

After that, Shin spent a few days with Unohana before Yoruichi finally caught up with him. By this point, her resentment towards Shin was palpable.

"Are you forgetting something?"

Yoruichi asked Shin.

"Forget something?" Shin asked, surprised. He couldn’t remember forgetting anything.

"Alright, if you don’t remember, I’ll remind you. Do you even know what your role is right now?"

Yoruichi asked Shin, fuming.

It was only then that Shin suddenly remembered—he was still a teacher. A teacher at the Shin’ō Academy. He had skipped class for several days.

Though the Shin’ō Academy had days off, the problem was, it wasn’t a day off.

So for the past few days, Yoruichi had been covering for him.

And come to think of it, Shin hadn’t taught his students in a long time.

"Actually, I’ve already taught them everything I’m supposed to. There’s nothing more for me to teach them," Shin said to Yoruichi.

He was serious. He had taught the Soul Reaper students everything he was supposed to. He was only responsible for teaching Kidō.

He had taught them all the low-level Kidō. As for the intermediate and advanced Kidō, sorry, they didn’t have the Reiatsu to use them.

And the rules forbade him from teaching them anyway. To learn higher-level Kidō, they had to earn it through their own merits—by killing Hollows. That was something for after they became official Soul Reapers.

Shin had unreservedly taught them everything he was supposed to. Now, it was up to them.

"You’ve got a point, but that doesn’t change the fact that you’re just being lazy." Yoruichi said to Shin with a knowing look.

She had seen through him a long time ago. Shin was just making excuses for his laziness.

"A little professional courtesy, maybe?"

Shin shrugged and said.

"Also, I feel like you’re the one who’s not doing your job. You’re the Vice-Captain of the 2nd Division. What are you doing hanging around the Shin’ō Academy all day? I think I need to report this to Old Man Yamamoto and have him sort you out."

"Heh, I’ve never seen someone so ungrateful. If I hadn’t been covering your classes these past few days, you probably would have been buried in student complaints by now."

Yoruichi was about to lose it. This guy was unbelievable.

"I’m leaving. I’m done with you."

Yoruichi left in a huff. This time, she really left the Shin’ō Academy, probably heading back to the 2nd Division.

"She’s not really angry, is she?" Shin watched Yoruichi’s retreating figure. He’d have to find a time to make it up to her.

——————————————

After that, Shin began his first class in a long time. To be honest, even the students were surprised to see him.

"Ahem, I’ve been busy with some things lately, so I’ve been a bit behind on your classes." Shin said to the students below. An explanation was necessary.

Whether they believed him or not, as long as Shin himself believed it, that was enough.

"Today, I’m not going to lecture you on theory. Theory is useless. Only real combat can truly show your strength."

Shin said to them. That’s right, Shin planned to take these students to fight some Hollows.

"Real combat? Are we going to fight Hollows?" Renji Abarai’s expression was one of extreme excitement. He was a classic battle junkie, probably unaware of how strong Hollows actually were.

Though ordinary Hollows had little to no intelligence, their combat power was still quite formidable. These students probably couldn’t even handle a giant Hollow.

If a Gillian-class Menos showed up, it could easily wipe them out. A Gillian’s strength surpassed that of a vice-captain and could even trade blows with a squad captain.

"Are we really going into real combat?"

"Don’t worry, with me here, you’ll be fine. But there will still be danger. If you’re scared, it’s better to back out now."

Shin warned them in advance.

Taking them out didn’t mean Shin would be a complete babysitter. If they did something stupid, he might not save them.

In the end, no one backed out. After all, this was the elite class, filled with the best of the best. And even if they wanted to quit, seeing that none of their classmates had, they couldn’t back down for the sake of their pride.

After that, Shin went to apply for permission to take the students to the World of the Living to kill Hollows. If it were any other teacher, it would probably be difficult to get approval, but it was different for Shin.

The teachers at the Shin’ō Academy all knew that Shin was once the captain of the 2nd Division and was said to be the closest in strength to the Captain-Commander.

Many even felt that if he hadn’t resigned from his position as captain of the 2nd Division, he might have eventually become the Captain-Commander. Many people still felt it was a pity.

But these people had no idea what Shin really wanted. Did he care about the position of Captain-Commander? Even if he were offered the position of Soul King, he wouldn’t be interested. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He looked at the overly excited group. He hoped that when they actually saw a Hollow, they wouldn’t be too scared to even swing their swords.

If they were that pathetic, Shin would definitely warn them never to say they were his students, lest they tarnish his reputation.
