Bleach: Studying medicine cannot save Soul Society

Chapter 140: Senju Makoto, Deputy Captain of the Fourth Division

Feeling Senju Makoto's tenderness, Aoki Risa hugged Senju Makoto's hand tightly and couldn't help but squeeze harder and said in tears.

"Cheng...Chengjun, mother, she, she..."

Senju Makoto continued to pat Aoki Risa's back gently and repeated warmly, "It's okay, everything is okay..."

"I... can't do anything, I can't resist the enemy, I can't heal my mother, I can't even relieve my mother's pain, I... wuwu..."

Gradually, Senju Makoto felt that his mind was a little moister, and Senju Makoto could not say anything like "sorrows and resignation", "the dead have passed away and the living are gone", "look away and look forward"

these words,

If Senju Makoto himself heard such light words when he was so sad, he would probably just think it was more like a sarcastic remark. He even got angry and carried the other person's mother away to see if the other person could say this.

kind of discourse.

Therefore, what Risa Aoki needs at this moment may just be a hug to vent her inner sadness.

However, after learning about the death of Chiyoko Aoki, Senju Makoto felt a little more lonely and sad.

After all, in the department, Chiyoko Aoki takes great care of Senju Makoto. Senju Makoto often encounters confusions about the path and medical skills, and often asks Chiyoko Aoki for advice. Sometimes he even asks one or two people for advice.

After hours of communication, Chiyoko Aoki would always take the trouble to answer questions.

It can be said that over the past year, Senju Makoto's rapid improvement in Kai Dao and medical skills may be completely inseparable from Unohana Retsu's guidance every night, but Chiyoko Aoki undoubtedly also helped.

Immediately, Senju Makoto glanced around at the members of the Fourth Division who were looking around, and found that almost all the members had expressions of hesitation, sadness, fear, etc.

Obviously, maybe the other members of the Fourth Division are not like Risa Aoki, who witnessed their mother dying in front of them but could do nothing, but they watched their colleagues, friends, and bosses in the past disappear or die, and their spirits were also affected.

A huge impact.

The atmosphere on the entire scene... almost seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud...

"cheer up!"

Suddenly, the disciple of Captain Unohana in the eyes of many members of the Fourth Division, Senju Makoto, who usually treated people and dealt with people and behaved as gentle as a spring breeze, gently comforted Risa Aoki with one hand, but his tone was...

He yelled sternly and with passion.

"Allow sadness, allow helplessness, allow fear..."

"Even though we bear the name of the God of Death, it doesn't mean that we won't feel sad, helpless, and afraid, but don't forget that we are members of the Gotei 13th Division!"

"Perhaps we and the Fourth Squadron do not need to participate in the battle, and we only bear the name of Gotei with the responsibility of treatment, but what is it like to be so hesitant and cowardly?"

After a pause, Senju Makoto looked at the members of the fourth team around him whose eyes were gradually gaining a little more luster, and said.

"Now, Captain Unohana is temporarily unable to perform his duties as captain. Vice Captain Yamada has disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown. Captain Yamamoto appointed me to temporarily assume the position of vice captain..."

"Carry your sorrow and fear, and do what you should do as the Fourth Division..."

"No matter what, the Fourth Division will never fall like this!!!"

When he said the last sentence, many members of the Fourth Division were shocked.

For Senju Makoto, it may have only been a year since he joined the Fourth Division, and his relationship is not yet profound. However, among the Fourth Division, which has a relatively low mortality rate, there are many who have served for more than decades.

team members.

For these veteran team members, they have a strong sense of belonging to the fourth team that they have led for decades or even hundreds of years.

However, what surprised Senju Makoto was that when they heard that Vice Captain Yamada had disappeared and his whereabouts were unknown, the expressions of the nearly two hundred members of the fourth division present hardly changed at all, let alone their temporary reaction to Senju Makoto.

What kind of resistance do you feel about taking on the role of vice-captain?

Senju Makoto briefly recalled Yamada Seinosuke's usual style, and seemed to roughly understand the reason.

Perhaps Yamada Seinosuke didn't have any malicious intentions in his heart, but with his extremely venomous style, there was never a day when he could not tolerate the venomous tongues of his subordinates.

As a result, Yamada Seinosuke's reputation within the Fourth Division can be said to be quite bad.

After all, no one wants their immediate boss to be a guy who finds fault with you every day and constantly ridicules you.

"So, from today onwards, Cheng-kun is the vice-captain?"

"What happened to Captain Unohana? Could it be that she was also..."

"Vice Captain Senju is right, our Fourth Division will not collapse easily!"

…

Facing the questioning from the surrounding members of Division 4, Senju Makoto answered them one by one in a gentle and calm tone.

"Captain Unohana is fine. It's just that due to some special circumstances, he temporarily needs to assist the Central Room 46 in investigating this incident, so he will have to wait a little longer to return to the team..."

"I am only temporarily serving as the deputy captain. After Deputy Captain Yamada resolves the blur problem and recovers, Deputy Captain Yamada will take over the team duties again."

"Right now, the most important issue is that the Fourth Division must restore normal order as soon as possible..."

Having said this, Senju Cheng's eyes swept over the familiar faces.

Originally, except for the group of "interns" at the funeral home, the number of official members of the Fourth Division was about three hundred. In the past year, Senju Makoto participated in the team's meetings from time to time.

During the activity, I can basically name the members of the team, and I also have a general understanding of the medical skills and healing methods that each of them is good at.

Immediately, Senju Makoto urgently compiled the list of surviving members of the Fourth Division. Most of the officers were lost, and more than half of the team members were sacrificed. It is no wonder that the morale of the survivors in the Fourth Division has almost collapsed.

It can be said that within the entire Gotei 13th Division, the fourth division's personnel losses are much more serious than those of the twelfth division. It can be said that their vitality has been severely damaged, and it may be difficult to even operate normally.

In the final analysis, in addition to the fact that the "hollow incident" broke out in the Fourth Division's building, there is also the reason that almost all the members of the Fourth Division are weak and have very weak combat capabilities.

Thinking of this, Senju Makoto had some thoughts about shifting the focus of the Fourth Division in the future. He began to mobilize a group of elite doctors from the Fourth Division and then brought them with two chief officers to form a temporary rescue team.

The injured were treated on the spot.

Among them, Risa Aoki, whose eyes were red, also applied to join the temporary rescue team.

Originally, Senju Makoto planned to refuse Risa Aoki's request, but he felt the strength in Risa Aoki's eyes...

Senju Makoto had an inexplicable feeling that "the girl next door has just grown up", and Risa Aoki seemed to have suddenly matured a lot, so she agreed.
