In the room, sensing the Shadow Clone diligently cultivating in the space, Uehara Byakuya’s expression became increasingly relaxed and composed.
He moved lightly, and in a few blinks, he arrived at the Eighth Division headquarters.
The First Division’s responsibility is to lead the thirteen divisions, convey the resolutions of the Central Forty-Six Chamber, and hold regular meetings.
The Eighth Division is responsible for collecting and organizing intelligence, compiling data and information about the 80 districts of Rukongai and other divisions, essentially serving as the eyes and ears of the First Division.
Therefore, the First Division and the Eighth Division have a close relationship with each other.
Thus, a dedicated liaison officer is needed.
Uehara Byakuya is that person responsible for liaising with the Eighth Division.
Over the years, naturally, Uehara Byakuya has interacted with the Eighth Division captain, Kyoraku Shunsui, quite frequently.
The two found that they were quite compatible in terms of personality, temperament, and hobbies.
As a result, they gradually became friends.
Through this back and forth, Uehara Byakuya became close with Shunsui, often making appointments to drink sake together...
Of course, unlike Kyoraku Shunsui, that LSP (Lovable Sexually Perverted), Uehara Byakuya simply wanted to research the customs and culture of Soul Society and complete his daily tasks.
…
All the way, Uehara Byakuya smoothly and familiarly reached the Eighth Division captain’s office.
Seeing Uehara Byakuya, Kyoraku Shunsui pretended to be busy while warmly greeting him:
“Byakuya, you’re here? You want to drink? No, Lisa will be angry!
Why did you open the sake?
That's high-quality sake, I finally managed to get it from Old Man Yama, we agreed to just have one cup, no more!”
…
Half a day later…
Yoruichi Shihōin, who had finally finished her business outside, rushed back to the Eighth Division.
Then, she noticed that the expressions of the division members seemed a little off.
Yoruichi Shihōin felt a “clunk” in her heart.
Could it be?
That guy again…
Thinking about this, Yoruichi Shihōin instantly flashed into Kyoraku Shunsui’s office.
Then, she saw her captain, eyes blurry from drinking, drunkenly singing off-key tunes.
While the detestable Uehara Byakuya was smiling, with an air of relaxed control.
Looking at these two drunkards enjoying themselves, thinking about how she had been working like a dog, Yoruichi Shihōin couldn’t help but clench her fist.
Hardened, her fist was hardened!
She was running around like crazy, and a large part of the reason was because these two were shirking their responsibilities and blatantly slacking off.
This made the usually calm and mature Yoruichi Shihōin couldn’t help but yell angrily:
“Captain, please be responsible!
Also, it’s work time now, no drinking…”
Facing the furious Yoruichi Shihōin, Uehara Byakuya skillfully started shirking responsibility: “It’s not my fault, I just opened the sake!”
Kyoraku Shunsui smiled awkwardly:
“Well, since Byakuya came, I got a little excited, so... I’ll punish myself with three cups, this won’t happen again…”
“Ha!?” The weak, gentle girl with glasses and pigtails was like a demon, her whole body radiating a terrifyingly low air pressure:
“Both of you, stop it!”
Seeing that Yoruichi Shihōin had drawn her Zanpakuto, Tekkō, Uehara Byakuya didn’t hesitate to make a run for it. He instantly disappeared with a Shunpo, leaving with elegance.
As for Kyoraku Shunsui, who was begging and pleading behind him, he was on his own.
Let a comrade die rather than oneself.
After all, he’d drunk sake, caught fish, and completed the task, so it was perfect!
…
As soon as he left the Eighth Division, Uehara Byakuya received a prompt from the system.
【Congratulations on completing your daily task, receiving rewards: Spiritual Pressure +1, Breath of the Sun proficiency +1.】
With the increase in these two attributes, Uehara Byakuya’s spiritual pressure had received a slight boost.
In the world of Soul Society, spiritual pressure is everything.
The battles of Soul Reapers are battles of spiritual pressure.
Those with strong spiritual pressure can dominate those with weaker spiritual pressure, even just a glance can make the weak turn to dust.
For example, the big boss, Aizen, “overpowered” “G6” with his “King’s Presence”, relying on his absolute spiritual pressure.
Therefore, in Soul Society, as long as your spiritual pressure is strong enough, you can truly do whatever you want.
Furthermore, the stronger your spiritual pressure, the longer a Soul Reaper's lifespan.
The longer you live, the more tasks Uehara Byakuya can complete, his spiritual pressure will become stronger, and he can live longer.
This forms a perfect loop.
Even if Uehara Byakuya’s spiritual pressure talent is not as monstrous as Aizen’s.
But through task rewards, his spiritual pressure can be enhanced indefinitely, with no limits.
This is the realm that the big boss, Aizen, has always desired.
Additionally, the just-completed task reward increased the proficiency of the Breath of the Sun. In an instant, Uehara Byakuya gained more understanding of the twelve forms of the Breath of the Sun.
Just by completing a daily task, his strength has increased significantly.
This is the power of the task system.
As long as Uehara Byakuya lives long enough and steadily completes tasks, he can naturally become stronger.
In the world of Soul Society, the twentieth level of Reiatsu is the standard for ordinary division members.
Those with tenth level Reiatsu or above are eligible to become seated officers.
At least eighth level Reiatsu is required to potentially achieve Shikai.
Fourth or fifth level Reiatsu is the level of a vice-captain.
Third level Reiatsu is the level of an ordinary captain.
More importantly, a Soul Reaper who has reached third level Reiatsu can live for a thousand years.
Just by relying on daily tasks, Uehara Byakuya can easily max out all his abilities!
My move, a million daily task “powers”, can you block it?
Eighth Division captain’s office.
Kyoraku Shunsui’s eyes became much clearer.
Yoruichi Shihōin, the vice-captain of the Eighth Division, is becoming increasingly skilled in her “physical sobering up” technique.
At this moment, Yoruichi Shihōin looked at the direction where Uehara Byakuya left, and said with hatred, “You’re lucky you got away, you’ve gotten away with it.”
Kyoraku Shunsui sighed, “I didn’t expect your relationship to be so good, youth is truly wonderful!”
Even though Uehara Byakuya was from Rukongai, his looks and temperament surpassed even the heirs of the big noble families like Kuchiki Byakuya and Shiba Kaien.
Therefore, in Seireitei, Uehara Byakuya is very popular and sought after.
Many female Soul Reapers are fond of the handsome Uehara Byakuya, it seems like our vice-captain has also been affected.
“We’re just ordinary book buddies, don’t misunderstand!” Yoruichi Shihōin adjusted her glasses, acting extremely composed.
Yoruichi Shihōin often goes to the bookstore to buy and read books.
However, the current Yoruichi Shihōin is still a very proper literary girl, she hasn't been tempted by the idols of the real world yet, she only reads proper books.
Then, Uehara Byakuya also occasionally goes to the bookstore to browse, and they became familiar with each other through this back and forth.
Kyoraku Shunsui was surprised, “Is that so? Just ordinary book buddies?”
Yoruichi Shihōin looked at Kyoraku Shunsui with the eyes of someone looking at a pest, then she flicked her pigtails and left.
