Although Makoto Okada said that the Shinō Academy allows students to skip grades, but Mazuru has no plans to skip grades.
After all, he has been in Hueco Mundo for more than hundred years, and the classes at Shinō Academy only last six years, which is similar to elementary schools in his previous life. Moreover, if you go to a preschool before going to elementary school, it will take more than six years.
Aizen brought him into the Soul Society, seemingly out of good intentions because he didn't want him to live in Hueco Mundo, but Mazuru knew that the other party just valued his qualifications.
Alone in Hueco Mundo with a battered asauchi, no Kidō, Shunpo or Zanpakuto, yet to be able to stand alone against Menos Grande, even if it is the lowest level Gillian, it is remarkable.
Such a genius, after being brought back to Soul Society, cultivated a little bit, and then placed in Gotei 13, will be an extremely good chess piece.
Mazuru was well aware of these things, and didn't bother to point them out.
After all, for him at the time, the appearance of Aizen really gave him a new choice, and if possible, he didn't want to stay in a place like Hueco Mundo.
What's wrong with entering the Soul Society, becoming a shinigami, and studying systematically?
As for being too involved with Aizen, one day he might be abandoned by Aizen and given a backstab, but that's for later.
At least on that day, Mazuru guessed that if he rejected Aizen's proposal with this ruthless style of acting, the moment he turns around, he will be treated as an experiment subject and killed.
Mazuru certainly has a few trump cards, but Aizen is Bleach's big boss in the early stage after all. Compared with the final boss Yhwach, he is more forceful. Anyway, since Yhwach failed and died, but Aizen not only survived but even played a key role, he is more like the real final boss.
As for our friend Yhwach? He's just a tool to promote the plot.
Well, although Mazuru is not very interested in manga and didn't read the specific content of the Millennium Blood War Chapter, but after learning about the Bleach's finale, he took the time to scribble through the last few chapters of the manga and under the unscrupulous media and memes, he also learned about some things about the final arc.
...
In the Shinō Academy, Kidō Training Ground,
"Kidō is an ability that can only be used by shinigami. It is impossible for hollow to use Kidō. It is generally believed that Zanpakuto is the proof of shinigami. In fact, Kidō is also a proof of shinigami. The quality of Kidō sometimes can even decide the outcome of a battle, and it should be noted that in addition to the thirteen division captains in Seireitei, there is also a Kidō Corps Commander who is also known as Grand Kidō Chief."
The lecturer from the Kidō Corps told the new students about the origin and usefulness of Kidō, and then began to teach the new students some basic Kidō.
Nanao observed Mazuru subconsciously while studying hard.
If at first her impression of Mazuru was that Shunsui took the initiative to talk to him, plus he was assigned to the same class as her and this guy took the lead in communicating with her.
Well, after spending some time in the same class as Mazuru, she also had some new views on him.
He has excellent spiritual aptitude, is extremely hardworking, and has an impeccable attitude in class!
In the eyes of Nanao, Mazuru is always so serious in class, he seems to be very eager for knowledge, even if some knowledge is not very useful, he is still studying seriously.
'Such a person may soon be able to graduate from Shinō, join the Gotei 13, and become an official shinigami.' she thought so.
In a blink of an eye, another Kidō class ended.
After Nanao and a group of students left the training ground, she went to another place alone.
There is a huge library in the Shinō Academy, the collection of books here is second only to the Great Spirit Book Gallery of Central 46. Since the Shinō Academy allows students to skip grades, it naturally compensates for the lack of knowledge for students who have skipped grades and provides a huge source of academic knowledge.
This method is the Shinō Library!
Here, all the knowledge from the first to sixth grades exists, as long as you are smart enough and hardworking enough, you can complete all the curriculum from the first to sixth grades through self-study.
Nanao came here slowly.
She came here, of course, not because she felt that she had fully completed the curriculum of the first grade and was going to skip a grade, but because she simply liked reading.
After her mother passed away, books became her only friends and her only consolation!
For her, the Shinō Library is almost the most beautiful place in the entire academy. It is a pity, she still wants to read the books in the Great Spirit Book Gallery, but because she is not shinigami yet, she is not qualified to go to that kind of place .
(T.L. Note - Aizen Sosuke wants to know your location)
After finding a few books that interested her, and sitting on an empty desk, Nanao began to read them.
Time flies by while reading.
After an unknown amount of time, Nanao took off her glasses, rubbed her eyes, and was about to continue reading when she caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of her eye.
"It's him?"
It was Mazuru, a text book example of a good student.
Nanao didn't expect that Mazuru would come to the library, but she didn't feel surprised after that. A good student like Mazuru seemed to be rushing to skip a grade, so it will be strange if he didn't come to the library.
Not knowing what she was thinking herself, Nanao picked up the book in front of her, came across to Mazuru and sat down.
She glanced at the books beside Mazuru, they were all Kidō books.
"Are you specially interested in Kidō?"
Nanao asked Mazuru.
Mazuru naturally noticed Nanao who came in front of him. He didn't dislike her.
At this moment, the other party was still a little girl. She couldn't be called beautiful, but she was very cute. She was also a lady with glasses, loli and the attribute of a girl with glasses inevitably made him think of some things that are not suitable for children.
"It's just to consolidate the knowledge that the lecturer gave today." Mazuru explained.
After a pause, he said again: "And, don't you think Kidō is cool?"
"Cool?"
"That's right!" Mazuru said: "Although every freshman will receive a sealed state, even if they keep the sealed state by their side day and night, not all graduates can awaken their Zanpakuto and join the Gotei 13, but Kidō Corps is different, it is not that difficult to get started, but after mastering it, the power is not small! Of course, looking cool is the main reason."
After Mazuru's explanation, Nanao couldn't help being a little speechless, she really didn't understand these men.
Kyoraku Shunsui, a big man, likes pink.
And this person in front of him, learning Kidō just simply because he thinks that it is cool.
After being silent for a while, she asked Mazuru again, "Are you not interested in kendo?"
Kendo, also known as Zanjutsu, is the technique of using "Zanpakuto" in battle in its sealed state (asauchi). In Nanao's observation, Mazuru in most of the courses, such as Hakuda, Hohō, Kidō , is full of interest, but for the Zanjutsu, although he seems to be serious about learning it, he seems a little casual, which can be called sloppy.
Mazuru never thought that Nanao would ask such a question.
How to answer this question?
The kendo taught by the Shinō Academy has merits, but in his opinion, it is too rigid and blunt. In Mazuru's view, real kendo still needs to be honed in actual combat.
Relying on a tattered sealed state in Hueco Mundo, he has fought against Menos Grande for more than a hundred years, and he has already stepped up on his own way of swordsmanship, so even if he listened carefully in class, he still seemed a little casual.
He also didn't expect that Nanao would... care about him so much.
She even noticed his perfunctory appearance in kendo class.
It's a good thing to have beautiful women who care about him, but for Mazuru, who has a problematic background, he doesn't want to expose too much.
After being silent for a while, he explained: "How should I put it, I actually don't really like to chop and kill with swords. If it wasn't for being a shinigami, one would need his own Zanpakuto, then frankly I'm not even interested in learning kendo."
"Is that so?" Nanao was a little surprised by Mazuru's answer.
She was also silent for a while, "If you don't like chopping, slashing, and killing, then I think that after you graduate, there is a division that is very suitable for you!"
"Fourth Division?"
Most of the Gotei 13 Divisions are fighting divisions, but there are some exceptions, such as the Fourth Division, which is the medical team. More importantly, the entry threshold for the Fourth Division is extremely low. There are no special requirements, anyone can join the 4th division, it would be even better if they are good at Kidō.
If possible, Mazuru would really like to apply to join the Fourth Division after graduation, honestly become a medical officer, to fight in the rear, and, stay beside Unohana Retsu, who despite the gentle and deceitful appearance, is in fact, the First Generation Kenpachi, an unprecedented villain in the history of the Soul Society. If he joins the Fourth Division and stays behind her, his safety is extremely guaranteed.
However, thinking of a nice old man wearing black-rimmed glasses, Mazuru felt that with Aizen's personality, he probably wouldn't be allowed to go down a peaceful life like this.
