When the radiance faded and the sensation of solid ground returned beneath her feet, Jeanne found herself standing upon a boundless, flat plain.
But she easily recognized that this was no longer the human realm, but a magical dimension created through sorcery.
Looking around, Jeanne suddenly broke into a smile.
"Sending such a luxurious lineup to deal with me alone? I'm truly ...

The vampire territories lay hidden deep within the mountains of Romania, in the human world.
Because vampires deliberately isolated themselves, refusing contact with outsiders, direct teleportation magic wasn't viable. Thus, Jeanne and her group first teleported into Europe, then traveled by plane and car toward the vampire domains.
After flying into Romania, they drove along windin...

After returning, Jeanne immediately recounted to everyone what she had encountered earlier.

The colossal beast charged forward, each punch descending like a meteor plummeting to earth. His scales, harder than steel, and strength capable of shaking rivers, were his weapons of choice. With roaring laughter, he swung relentlessly, the violent gusts from his fists exploding outward.

The adjustments in Fourth Division's seated positions were announced shortly afterward.
Clearly, Unohana Retsu and Kotetsu Isane had already made these preparations beforehand, simply using Nobu's appointment to Third Seat as an opportunity to finalize them.

The spectators were visibly startled. Most of them had never witnessed Nobu's Zanpakutō ability firsthand, and even the officers who had previously seen it were surprised—it was faster than during his initial evaluation!
Shingyōji Sen had heard Nobu’s voice as well, yet he merely clenched his teeth and continued healing.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed upon that shimmering heart composed entirely of Reishi.

The current Third Seat of the Fourth Division was Shingyōji Sen, who also served as the head of the First Advanced Relief Team.
Shingyōji was a long-time member, having joined even earlier than Kotetsu Isane. Nobu had met him briefly before—a rather serious individual by nature, wielding a healing-type Zanpakutō as well.
At Unohana’s instruction, news of Nobu’s challenge fo...

Kitasan Black was nervous.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t raced before. Thanks to her grandfather and father, she'd seen plenty of big events too.

Right now, she still didn't feel like the center of attention.
