[Gotei 13, 10th division barrack]

"Captain! Captain! It’s an emergency!"

A black-haired shinigami was running hurriedly with a frightened expression. He opened the door of the captain's office without even introducing himself.

"The detectors signaled an anomaly in space in the human world and are going crazy. They also detected an abnormally large concentration of Reiastu in the city!"

Isshin, who was lying down and relaxing, and Rangiku, who was seated on the captain's seat while working on a mass of papers, both raised their heads in shock at the sudden entrance.

The information was crucial, but more than anything, they remembered that the 1st year students of class 1 were supposed to be in that very city.

"Shit! Rangiku!"

"Roger! Leave it to me, captain."

Rangiku didn't even need him to finish his sentence and got up before rushing towards the Senkaimon set in their barracks.

Because of their power, the procedures necessary for a captain and a vice-captain to visit earth were completely different from normal shinigami.

The moment she passed the gate. A tattoo in the form of the insignia of the 10th division formed on her right breast, before becoming invisible.

This tattoo was an obligation and would limit her power level to a fifth of her full power, but it was necessary to keep the equilibrium in the Human World.

What’s more, the transfer between the two dimensions wasn’t instantaneous.

“I hope that I won’t reach them too late.”

The fact that the 10th division would be responsible if anything happened aside, she couldn’t accept to leave a bunch of students to their death.

Still, it wasn't as if everything was hopeless.

She remembered that the student named Gojo Satoru should be part of the group.

From the information she had, he was already quite strong.

'Let's hope that everything is alright.'

[Human world; Naruki City]

Meanwhile, on the students’ side, while all of them were doing the exercises of sending souls to the other side.

They all stopped as they felt a crushing power on them.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

Even though they couldn't find the source, meaning that the cause of it was quite far, this didn't bring them any relief as this meant that despite the distance, those beings were strong enough to be felt from far away.

Shuhei Hisagi was briefly stunned before his expression became grave.

"Don't panic! Everything will be alright."

He took his butterfly and sent a message before watching it disappear.

As students, their zanpakuto did not receive the permission to open a Senkaimon. They needed to ask for help once they were finished.

Now though, it was clearly an emergency.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself and continued,

"Hotaru, Aoba."

""Yes?""

"I need you to take care of the students here."

"What about you?"

"Student Gojo is still somewhere. I need to find him. What's more, I also need to take a look at the situation and make a report of the situation."

Hotaru and Aoga wanted to protest, but they knew that now wasn't the time.

They needed to secure the students and wait for help.

"Wait! Hisagi-senpai. I am going. I can recognize Gojo’s Reiatsu."

Just as he was about to use Shunpo and rush towards the source, he was stopped by a female voice.

Turning around, he immediately recognized her, since she was the best student of the 1st year in Kido.

"Student Hinamori. I am sorry but–"

"I am also going."

He was once again interrupted by another student.

Looking at the short silver-haired boy, Shuhei sighed, "You are making me waste time, Student Hitsugaya."

"Since we are wasting time. Why don't we just go?"

Renji and Kira also advanced.

Looking at them, Shuhei was feeling proud that such people were students and most likely his future colleagues if they didn't die.

Because of this, he was even more adamant about refusing.

"Are you even able to use Shunpo?"

This question stumped them.

After all, not everyone was a freak like Gojo who could master Shunpo in less than two weeks and even create a technique based on it.

They also understood that without Shunpo, they would only be dead weight in this situation.

Looking at each other dejectedly, they were about to back when Toshiro raised his hand,

"It's still rough, but I can use it."

Not only Shuhei but even the other students who were watching from the side were shocked.

In the first place, none of the Zankensoki was supposed to be learned in the first year.

After all, the final goal at the end of the six years course was only to reach the level of practitioners.

Hitsugaya being able to use Shunpo now meant that it wouldn't be weird for him to graduate early.

Seeing this, Shuhei bit his lips before deciding that they had wasted too much time.

"Let's go."

Then, the two of them immediately vanished.

Looking at the now empty space, Momo clenched her fists in frustration, "Shiro-chan, Gojo. Good luck."

The fact that this was all she could do was so frustrating.

She wished for more power. She wished to become stronger. She did not want to have this feeling of helplessness ever again.

Unbeknownst to her, those feelings made her Zanpakuto shake slightly, as if trying to reach her.

[Human world, Karakura Town.]

Naruki city and Karakura town were neighbors.

In a rather sparsely decorated shop, one man wearing a green and white hat sat peacefully with a teapot in his hands.

Looking at the moon, he sighed after taking a sip.

"The moon is so beautiful. But it seems like trouble is brewing."

Next to him, a black cat was laying lazily as if it didn't care about the man's muttering.

Then, stretching, it slowly stood up before looking in the direction of Naruki city.

"Are you going?" The man asked.

"I am just bored. Might as well see what the fuss is about."

Surprisingly, the cat answered with a deep voice.

Anyone else seeing this scene would have jumped in fright, but the man did not seem surprised.

"Well, just be careful. It could be a trap."

The cat looked at him with disdain.

"Who do you take me for? Even after 60 years without training, I am still the fastest, you know? No one can catch me."

Saying so, the cat immediately vanished.

Now alone, the man let out a laugh, "Haha. As prideful as always. But I guess the title of Flash Goddess isn't for show."

Taking another sip of his tea, he stood up and adjusted the hat on his head, "Now then, I guess I should go visit Shinji and the others."

Then with a burst of speed, he also vanished.
