The next day, everyone showed up for the meeting and it was visible that some of the heroes had still not recovered by what they had seen. Only Wayne looked a little better and the rest were not so alright.
But this meeting was important and they needed to get more information.
"Who do you recommend we send for the mission to go for the mission in special universe at the Wall." Naruto opened the meeting with those words. The Avengers were little down today so it was up to the others to take the lead.
"We can send a team of Ninjas and Shinigamis for the mission, just like they were trained for." John suggested. They had been doing drills after drills for sometime now and it was time to show the results.
"But we need people with a specific mindset." Byakuya said.
"Then we can select some special people to lead the team. I want Gildarts to lead this team. This will be a long mission and only someone who has undertaken long ones would be able to lead." John suggested.
The Fairy Tail members who were at the meeting were surprised that John had asked for Gildarts. It was true that he did have experience in these kinds of missions and the ones where the rate of death was almost close to 100%. But Fairy Tail members had never backed down in fear with such odds. Rather, Makarov was sure Gildarts would jump on the offer.
He had been roaming the universe for quite some time, as staying in Asgard would just destroy many things around as his power level was off the charts and it was detrimental to the kingdom. Atreus sighed in relief when Gildarts left for the universe for being a mercenary.
"Good, we will call him back for this." Makarov said as he smoked his pipe.
"And among Shinigami, we can send a Kenpachi." Hirako said. The Captains had been thinking a lot about who to send and they finally remembered about a Kenpachi who was in the dungeons. The Kenpachi wasn't Unohana nor Zaraki.
Though it would be great if it was Unohana or Zaraki as these two could be trusted, but they were too important to be sent. It was better to send someone who was expandable and could be controlled. And the 8th Kenpachi was perfect for this.
Normally all of the Kenpachi which was started by Unoahana were savages and came from either slums or faced some kind of hardships on their way to the top, but the 8th Kenpachi named as Soya Azashiro was special.
He came from a respected family and his power was really weird. His Shikai was nothing to be spoken about but his Bankai was what troubled the people around. His bankai could be said as a kind of Logai as he could fuse himself with the surroundings and could use the environment for his own advantage. It was very unusual for a Kenpachi to have such power but he was given the spot of the Captain as he killed the previous Captain.
Though he was in the dungeon for crimes, he could be used in the team easily and since John could use his 'magic' to control so sending an unused Captain for this mission would be perfect.
"Eh!! Who?"
"You mean Zaraki?"
The others who had watched the anime were confused about what Hirako meant.
"There are other Kenpachis who had worked as the Captain for the 11th division and not everyone was killed. The 8th Captain is one such." John explained the story of the 8th Captain to the others. (The story of 8th was a special novel which came later and is considered canon. It only came out as Japanese)
"Alright, as long as he is not crazy as Zaraki, it will be fine." Banner.
"Oye, Green guy, who are you calling crazy? Do you want a fight?"
Banner, hearing the words Zaraki, tried to hide away. He spoke those words unconsciously as he almost forgot that Zaraki was in the room like the rest of the Captains. Everyone laughed a bit seeing how Banner was hiding behind Captain America.
"Alright. Orochimaru, we might need some edo tensei for this?" John said> Everyone's eyes contracted when John asked for edo tensei. This was a forbidden jutsu, not because it was hard to do it, but because it dealt with the dead.
"Do we really need the dead people?" Naruto hesitated when John proposed it. Bringing the dead was kind of disrespectful.
"I know that it is disrespectful but we will need the force for this war and since this is kind of a suicide mission, it would be better if we don't let the living die. We can't lose people so early in war."
