At the 1st Division Kendo hall, Yamamoto Genryusai stood in the spacious dojo, his back to the door.

Hearing footsteps approaching from behind, he slowly spoke, "How goes your training with Sword Pressure?"

Facing Yamamoto Genryusai, who appeared to be the epitome of a wise sage, Yu Mikami showed a look of disdain.

It was a shame this old man hadn't written a book on swagger.

However, remembering his purpose for being there today, a smile quickly appeared on his face.

"Of course it's going well. How could I not take it seriously when Captain-Commander has instructed me?"

Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Genryusai slowly turned around.

"Demonstrate it."

Without any unnecessary words, Yu Mikami drew his Zanpakutō and slashed through the air towards Yamamoto Genryusai.

The blue crescent-shaped Sword Pressure instantly tore through the air between them, heading straight for Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

Watching the Sword Pressure whistle toward him, Yamamoto Genryusai displayed a look of slight surprise.

He extended his hand and caught the Sword Pressure.

Rip!!!

The strike, capable of cutting through boulders, seemed as soft as cotton in Yamamoto Genryusai's hand, leaving no trace.

After assessing the power of the Sword Pressure, Yamamoto Genryusai applied a bit of force, crushing the slash into fragments that dissipated into the air.

Looking at Yu Mikami with his Zanpakutō, he opened his mouth.

After a few seconds, he finally said, "Not bad."

Yu Mikami chuckled. "All thanks to Captain-Commander's excellent teaching."

Seeing his expression, a warning bell suddenly rang in Yamamoto Genryusai's mind.

Something wasn't right…

This kid definitely wants my help with something!

He came to this conclusion instantly for a simple reason.

Back then, whenever Kyouraku Shunsui, that rascal, caused trouble and needed to apologize or ask for help, he behaved almost exactly like this in front of him.

Yamamoto Genryusai silently raised his guard, beginning today's lesson.

Today, he was teaching Yu Mikami combat techniques.

Specifically, the Hakudō, one of the four basic skills of a Shinigami.

Yu Mikami was genuinely interested in this.

Yamamoto Genryusai's Hakudō abilities were well showcased during the Karakura Town battle arc.

Faced with Wonderweiss Margela, who could seal his Zanpakutō's powers, Yamamoto Genryusai directly shattered Wonderweiss's body with a punch.

Even though Wonderweiss was a specialized Arrancar, mainly countering Yamamoto Genryusai's Zanpakutō, it didn't have many other special abilities.

However… its defense was legitimately at the Espada level.

For Yamamoto Genryusai's Hakudō to shatter the body of an Espada with a single blow, it surpassed the strength of many Captains' Zanpakutō.

These comments are not directed at any specific individuals, namely Tōsen or Komamura.

In the following hours, Yamamoto Genryusai painstakingly imparted his various understandings of Hakudō to Yu Mikami, piece by piece.

Yu Mikami also, for once, adopted the demeanor of a diligent student, attentively listening to everything Yamamoto Genryusai said.

"…That's it for today's lesson. We'll cover more next time."

After some time, Yamamoto Genryusai concluded.

Yu Mikami was momentarily taken aback.

Then he quickly raised his hand, "Wait, Captain-Commander, don't you have a really powerful punching technique? The kind that can split mountains and seas… aren't you going to teach that today?"

Yamamoto Genryusai: "?"

It took him a few seconds to realize what Yu Mikami was referring to.

Seeing the eager look on Yu Mikami's face, he said gruffly, "With your current understanding of Hakudō, it's too early to learn this old man's Bone Strike."

"Learning is a process of gradual accumulation. You must understand the need to take it one step at a time. Overreaching can lead you astray…"

Yamamoto Genryusai huffed and puffed, ready to launch into a lecture.

Seeing him about to begin a lengthy speech, Yu Mikami quickly raised his hand again.

"So, Captain-Commander Lord, if I master everything you've taught by the end of this week, will you teach me that Bone Strike technique next week?"

Yamamoto Genryusai frowned slightly.

Though he had covered basic techniques today, the more fundamental the skill, the more time it required to master and become familiar with.

Many kendo geniuses start with day-in, day-out repetitions before they ever begin learning techniques.

While Yu Mikami was undoubtedly a genius, overconfidence and arrogance could lead him down the wrong path.

With this in mind, he nodded. "Very well, if you master everything this old man has taught you by the end of the week, I will teach you the techniques of Bone Strike."

"However, if you fail, you'll begin your training under the waterfall starting next week."

He decided it would be good to curb Yu Mikami's arrogance while he was still young, to prevent future setbacks.

Yu Mikami agreed without hesitation.

Yamamoto Genryusai was ready to dismiss him, but then he saw Yu Mikami raise his hand again.

"Captain-Commander Lord, are you busy right now? I have some extracurricular questions I'd like to ask."

"Busy."

"I want to ask, if someone possesses a particularly powerful hypnosis ability that's impossible to break through with ordinary means, what can be done to resist it?"

"…"

Seeing how Yu Mikami completely ignored his reply, Yamamoto Genryusai had an impulse, for a moment, to kick him out.

However, the question piqued his interest a bit.

Standing on the wooden floor of the dojo, he began to ponder.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, "There are three methods."

"The first is the simplest: increase your own Reiatsu."

"No matter the hypnosis, it's based on Reiatsu. If your Reiatsu is far superior, you can forcibly break through the opponent's ability."

"The second method is to find a way to counter it."

"If the hypnosis is through sound, use Kidou to block your hearing before the battle."

"If it's through movement, find a way to disrupt those movements."

"If neither works, seek out potions or other tools... I'm not too knowledgeable about this, but the Technology Development Bureau might have solutions."

"As for the third method…"

Yamamoto Genryusai squinted his eyes. "This old man just thought of the third way."

"The 12th Division Captain, Kirio Hikifune, seems to have made significant breakthroughs recently in artificial souls."

"If it's her, she might have a way to use artificial souls to set up pre-emptive defenses against hypnosis abilities."

Upon hearing this, Yu Mikami was slightly surprised.

Kirio Hikifune… that name sounded somewhat familiar.

Wasn't she a member of the Zero Division?

How could she still be serving in the Gotei 13 at this time instead of being promoted to Zero Division?

Although he didn't know her skill level, the fact that she could eventually ascend to Zero Division indicated she must have some capabilities.

With this in mind, Yu Mikami resolved to take some time soon to visit the 12th Division.

He had a pass for the 1st Division, and with some fabricated excuse, he would certainly be able to get in.

Plan established!

"Captain-Commander Lord, there's another thing I'd like to ask you."

"Do you have any tracking techniques that can leave a mark or something similar without being detected, to easily know the other party's location?"

Yamamoto Genryusai: "…"

First hypnosis, now tracking techniques.

What on earth was this rascal trying to do?

He squinted his eyes, preparing to kick Yu Mikami out.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from the doorway:

"Ask me about that; I'm well-versed! It's my specialty!"
