Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 53 Captain! Dignity! (Please read~Please vote~)

Naruto took a sip of the liquid in the cup.

The alcohol content is not high and it has a slightly sweet taste.

It is a fruit wine suitable for children.

"After all, I am the captain, and I have the ability." He said calmly, "Do more."

"That's not the question." Kyoraku Shunsui raised his hand, pressed down on Naruto's head, and twisted it forcefully.

Naruto turned his head following the force and his eyes stopped on Kotsubaki Emon.

"Have you not noticed that your soldiers are already beginning to feel dissatisfied?" Kyoraku Shunsui continued, "Vice Captain Kotsubaki invited us to this dinner today, just to have a good talk with you about this issue."

Xiao Chun's hand shook and the wine spilled.

Even the sunglasses couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.

Captain Kyoraku, what are you doing?
Not
Just say it openly.

Do you wish you would die early?
He tried hard to recall, but couldn't think of when and where he had offended Captain Kyoraku.

"Hahaha." Kyoraku Shunsui's prank was successful and he laughed, "Vice-Captain Kotsubaki, don't make that expression."

"Naruto is a good boy."

"He doesn't have the spoiled temper you worry about, and he's able to listen to suggestions."

"He will also care about your thoughts."

Tsubaki looked at Naruto.

There was no anger on the blond boy's face. He stared at him seriously and solemnly, and asked softly, "Are you really dissatisfied with my actions?"

Xiao Chun scratched his head: "There are some."

"Captain Naruto takes too much on himself."

"Although we are not as powerful as the captain, we are also members of the 7th Division."

“We also want to do what we can.”

Kyoraku Shunsui patted Naruto's head, "You're the captain, not the parent."

"You take care of everything, what do they do?"

Shiba Isshin put down his glass, "The captain-general would love to see a perfect team."

"But the team members also need to grow."

"They make mistakes and they get hurt, but that's what makes them strong."

"We captains."

“When they can’t walk anymore or are stuck in thorns, what we can do is to lend a helping hand, heal their wounds, and then watch them keep going.”

Matsumoto Rangiku complained: "Is this your excuse for letting us do everything?"

Shiba just laughed it off.

"Naruto, you're very tired like this." Kyoraku Shunsui shook his wine glass, "You need to learn to relax."

"In a place like Seireitei, being too tense is not a good thing."

Xiaochun drank two glasses of wine, her face flushed red, and her words became more powerful and straightforward: "From the captains' perspective, this is what happened."

"In the eyes of us, it's a different story."

"The captain has to do everything himself."

“Even the little things that seem insignificant.”

"It will make us look incompetent!"

He paused and looked at Naruto: "Captain Naruto, do you know what "Captain" means in the eyes of us soldiers?"

Naruto shook his head.

"It's dignity." Xiao Chun put down the wine glass and uttered the two words forcefully as if he was swinging a knife.

“It is our dignity that we must protect even at the cost of our lives.”

“This is the value of our existence as a team.”

Naruto looked at him in surprise.

This is a very unexpected answer.

dignity
A strange description.

"But I have only been your captain for half a year." Naruto said softly, "Just because of my identity as a captain, I am so worthy of you."

Xiao Tsubaki laughed heartily and interrupted him, "Captain Naruto, this statement is a big mistake."

"We respect you not because of your status as the captain of the 7th Division." "It's just because... you are Uzumaki Naruto."

"And you, Uzumaki Naruto, happen to be the captain of our Seventh Division."

Naruto held the glass.

The reason for respecting yourself is just because you are "Uzumaki Naruto"?
It has little to do with the identity of "captain"?
This was another answer that surprised him.

Matsumoto Rangiku raised her wine glass, glanced at Shiba Isshin, and sighed heavily: "We in the Tenth Division are very envious of the Seventh Division."

"Everyone is saying that it would be great if the captain was Uzumaki-sama."

Shiba Isshin laughed and scratched his head.

Kyoraku Shunsui nodded in agreement: "I often hear my soldiers say that, too."

"Naruto, you really are an enviable captain."

Xiaochun drinks: "We are under a lot of pressure because we have such an excellent captain."

“But it is because we have such an excellent captain that we have the motivation to follow.”

"If we can't catch up with the captain, then that's our problem." He said, his expression becoming more serious. "This shows that what we need is more encouragement and experience."

"Instead of expecting you to take care of us like your own children."

At this point, Xiao Tsubaki slammed the table and muttered, "Speaking of age, Captain Naruto, you are younger than all of us."

Kyoraku Shunsui took a sip of wine: "And there is a very practical problem, Naruto."

Naruto turned to look over.

"Can you protect them at all times?" He asked casually.

But Naruto frowned and remained silent for a while before he shook his head hesitantly.

"When they encounter real danger but don't have the power to protect themselves, that's fatal." Kyoraku Shunsui remembered something and put down his wine glass. "Let them grow up quickly while you still have the ability to protect them."

"So that even if a real threat comes."

"They can swing a knife, too."

Xiaochun shook her left arm: "The team flower of our 7th division is Acorus!"

The flower language of calamus represents "courage".

Naruto thought.

He didn't drink much that night.

Isshin Shiba and Shunsui Kyoraku took extra care of him. After all, he had the face and body of a "minor", and it would be too "sinful" to force him to drink.

After returning to the Seventh Division.

Naruto tried to let go.

He handed over some matters that, in his opinion, he did not need to handle himself to the team members.

The soldiers agreed with a smile and were even eager to accept the task.

After that conversation at the izakaya.

Xiaochun learned how to deal with Naruto.

Frankly speaking, this level is not enough and more matters can be released.

Naruto listened to him, let go little by little, and carefully observed the attitudes of the team members.

They are not disgusted, on the contrary, they are full of energy.

till the end.

Naruto sat in the team barracks in a daze.

He found.
I don't have much to do anymore.

All you have to do is look through the team members' reports, or step in to solve the problems when some people are not skilled enough and make mistakes.

The days become more leisurely.

Naruto also had more time to observe the Seventh Division.

Kotsubaki Ren'emon is a very reliable vice-captain.

"Komamura Sajin" is not as he describes himself. He is quite popular in the 7th Division, but because of his rigid style, his completely concealed attire, and his cold aura that keeps people at a distance, many people are reluctant to approach him.

Naruto thought about what Tsubaki said that day.

he thinks.
I seem to have found a way to deal with "Komamura Sajin".

As a man, you should naturally solve problems in a manly way.
