Full Name: Kairu Yushimoto
Nickname: Kai/Yushi/Demon
Age: Unknown
Appears to be: 34
Squad: 1 (previous 11 & 3)
Position: Captain (previous Captain 11th Division & Lieutenant 3rd Division)
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 170lbs
Appearance: look at main pic
Personality: As the captain-commander of Gotei 13, Yushimoto is highly respected by most of the Shinigami. Also he is the 12th head of the Yushimoto family, a noble family bringing very strong candidates to the Gotei 13. So as the head of the family he acts in an aristocratic manner. He always seems serene and apathetic towards other people, even those who have treated him as an absolute enemy. He is notably calm, even in battle. He faces all challengers as if they are far better than himself, and as so he will go all out against every single opponent he faces. He might not just release his Bankai right off the bat, but he will however engage his opponent strategically. Also the embodiment of conviction, Yushimoto follows the laws and regulations of Soul Society to the letter, and expects the same of others. Yushimoto very rarely gets angry, enraged or desperate in any situation. Also he shows no sign of panic or distress in any situation, meaning his opponent will never know when they have gotten him in a situation he cannot handle. Yushimoto puts his duties before everything else, and he expects everyone else to do the same. He has so much love for the Gotei 13 and everyone in it that he is willing to sacrifice his own life for their safety. Most would say he goes over the top with whatever he becomes passionate about.

Despite this he is laid back when nothing is going wrong, and even enjoys an occasional drink. When drunk he is seen as more 'down to Earth person' so to speak. Though he does not get drunk often, he still has his moments. He enjoys the company of females, but does not let them distract him from his duties or his fights. He loves massages and every month he takes time out of one of his busy days to go to the 4th division to get a massage. With all this said Yushimoto can normally be found in his headquarters, but when a large event unfolds he tends to make a late appearance to the scene, he never really gets involved preferring to stay on the sidelines. Yushimoto has a sense of honor, he lets most of his opponents reach their maximum potential before defeating them. Also he refuses to attack an unarmed, already severely injured, or unready opponent. With this being said he will however use his skills to attack an opponents blind spots and weaknesses to win.

Previous to his promotion to Head Captain and head of his family, he was an alcoholic. He was laid back in most cases but was outgoing and the life of the party, also he was a very ferocious fighter. He took every advantage he could and would kill anyone who called him their enemy, in fact he was shown killing a Captain when he was a 3rd squad Lieutenant just because he called him a little punk that needed to learn his place. It took him only a mere 5 seconds to kill the previous Captain, he later states his Lieutenant of the 1st Division he could have ended it in one strike but wanted to see the fear in the eyes of the so called Captain level shinigami. Before reaching Lieutenant he was a dedicated student learning everything he possibly could as fast as he possibly could.
Favorite Food: Foods with strong taste (he would rather not eat bland food)
Favorite Drink: Any beverage that is not sour (he prefers sweet drinks and flavorful drinks)
Least Favorite Food: Bland food
Likes: Massages, his fellow Shinigami and his duties
Dislikes: Enemies, people that are arrogant, and people that attack the weak
Hates: People that put his friends, family, fellow shinigami, and the Soul Society in danger

Zanpakutou
Zanpakutou Spirit
Name: Shi no Rōtasu (Death Lotus)

Personality: Shi no Rōtasu is a very proud spirit, he sees himself as a higher form of life. Yushimoto and himself did not get along well for a long time. However since Yushimoto became the head of his family they have been seeing eye to eye lately. They even hold long conversations while Yushimoto meditates.

Type: Defense/Corrosive
Inner World:
User Image


Sealed Form
Appearance: Sword in main pic

Shikai
Release Phrase: "Corrode, Shi no Rōtasu"
Appearance: His zanpakuto lacks a weapon form in this release, instead it becomes Kairu's Reiatsu. He can form threads and weapons from thin air. These weapons hold a corrosive factor.
Abilities: Upon its release Kairu swallows the blade, the air around him begins to burn everyone in a 100 foot radius after 50 posts everyone but him will decompose completely. His spiritual pressure raises exponentially, this pressure is enough to make others fear what is to come. In this released form he can create weapons that are a light purple color. In the event that anything he creates touches something it will begin to corrode, this includes Zanpakuto and Reiatsu. Spiritual particles will begin to wither away as the weapons make contact. This is not an instant process so fast moving attacks can still hit him if they make it through his defenses. Also anyone hit by these weapons will experience excruciating pain.
Attacks:
Thousand Edges of the Lotus - by manipulating the purple filaments he has them pierce the opponent(s) body from all directions. This is avoidable, but contradictory to the name there are thousands of these filaments and each have a great deal of corrosive abilities. If pierced with more than twenty the body will decay in 15 posts, but till then the target will be in the worse pain imaginable. This attack lasts 5 posts before dispersing.
Web of Omniscience - Yushimoto sends the threads to every conceivable direction and traps the enemy or enemies in a cage of Spiritual aura. The threads then close in and bind the enemy tightly. While binding the enemy they will slowly decay, it takes 10 posts to decay, so one has limited time to escape. These bindings will completely encompass the target(s) from head to toe. This will last until the opponent(s) escapes the bindings or they die.
Decomposing Aura - Although this is a passive that is already in use upon release, if Yushimoto focuses he can increase the deadly toxins in the air. Once he focuses on this it will increase to 200 feet in radius around him.
This will also speed up the decaying process. Instead of it taking 50 posts it will now take 30 posts for everyone but himself to decompose.


Bankai
Banki's Name: Chimamire no Shi no Rōtasu (Bloody Death Lotus)
Release Phrase: "Bankai"
Appearance: Same as above except now he can harden his Riatsu to form an exact replica of his zanpakuto's sealed appearance.
Abilities: Kairu now become one with his Zanpakuto completely, the once burning atmosphere is now thick and foggy it now burns much more than before and is now covering the entire battle field. Even though it is more potent it will still take 40 posts to corrode a person completely. His Reiatsu is now second to none, in fact it is so potent that many find it hard to even stand in his presence and those that can will still find it difficult to fight.
Attacks:
Corrosive Fog - Even though this is a passive ability once he releases his Bankai however if he focuses on this ability he can cause the fog to thicken this only makes it nearly impossible to see through although he finds it easy to see his opponent since it doesn't effect his vision. Even those who see Reiatsu will find it impossible to see his form as the entire area will now be shrouded in his Reiatsu.
Single Lotus - One lotus flower will rest on the ground under the target(s) instantly after using this attack. Once it's petals open it will launch a devastating blast of Reiatsu. If it hits the target it will cause them a great deal of pain and they will begin to decay rapidly. If Yushimoto dies the decay process will end, however in 10 posts the opponent will die. This is a single use per fight.
Corrosive Skin - Kairu's skin is covered in a purple aura, upon this ability being used his skin will cauase anything that touches it to decay nearly instantly and radiate off of Kairu's body causing him to become nearly invulnerable, in some cases it will only spread on the service of what touches him. However prolonged exposure will corrode deeper. This lasts 10 posts and has a 5 post cooldown.
Desolated Pool of Bloody Lotus - The pinnacle of Yushimoto's Bankai power. Manifests itself as a bottomless swamp that rapidly breaks down the opponent's body with its poisons. The opponent's corpse will sink and further decay, providing the swamp with additional nutrients. Allows Yushimoto to manipulate lotus plants in the swamp, which can serve as indicators of the decay of the opponent. While in this swamp, kairu can become invisible and make a clone of himself to fight, this can mean if the opponent doesn't find his true body they will be unable to kill him. Even after this technique ends the oponent that was unfortunate enough to fight in this technique will have one month (real time) to kill Yushimoto or they will decay completely. This technique will last until he disperses it, he dies, or his target(s) die.

Family:
• Yushimoto
Background History:

Shin'ō Academy

Yushimoto was born into the noble family household as the 11th Head's son. He was raised to take over as the head of the family, and although he was raised with strict limitations to his freetime, he was told never to talk to anyone from the Rukongai. Despite his clear orders when he was 8 he started to venture around the Rukongai, eventually he made many friends. Only two are worthy of being noted, Rin Setsuko and Karin Hashima. Both were poor and seen Kairu as a chance at getting rich, that was until they all became close friends and entered into the Shin'ō Academy together. They formed a small group who helped each other study and even train outside of the academy. Kairu had an unusually high spiritual pressure for his age, even so much that it caught the attention of the teachers. They all recommended that he moved on to the advanced classes, they proposed the idea to him, he was excited until he found out Rin and Karin wouldn't be able to join him. So instead of taking their offer and being placed in classes that would challenge him he stayed in the lower classes where he helped his friends climb up to the top with him. Together mostly because of him, his group constantly showed up the higher-class students with little to no problems.

Eventually Kairu was placed in the top of the class along with his friends and they all went to the living world in the same group to practice Konsō for the first time. Though Kairu was to lead the team they had another member join them his name was Fenrir Gonson, he was a very gifted student and seen everyone else as a lower life form than himself and acted that way to boot. During their mission they were confronted by a Shinigami officer who was stationed in the living world, it was a brief conversation that ultimately led them to their destination. Soon Kairu had cleansed the soul and sent it to the afterlife, next it was Karin's turn. They neared the next soul and after a brief explanation she sent the soul to the afterlife as well, now was Rin's turn. They neared the spotting of the soul only to be greeted by a large Hollow with red marking down the length of its back, it resembled an Orc. They all backed up aside from Fenrir, he jumped towards the beast releasing a powerful strike on the Orc's head. He landed at the Orc's feet and smirked while mocking it. Little did he know he caused no damage to the Hollow. The Hollow lowered it's hand with both speed and strength, Fenrir's eyes widened as the hand was about to smash him. As Fenrir opened his eyes the hand of the beast was gone, Fenrir looked around and seen nothing until he looked just on the other side of the Orc and seen Kairu sheathing his blade as he stood up straight. Fenrir enraged at the site of Kairu injuring the beast when he was unable to he attacked the Orc relentlessly, only to do minimal damage while exhausting himself.

Rin stopped Fenrir and was knocked back Kairu stopped Rin from retaliating and stated that if Fenrir wanted to waste his stamina let him. Rin walked over to the frightened soul and cleansed it, it would now be Fenrir's turn but they were interrupted by another Hollow. No this was no ordinary Hollow it was an Arrancar, the reiatsu of the man was overwhelming bringing all of them to their knees. The Arrancar laughed, asking how the four of them managed to defeat Himona when they were no more little kids with no power. Fenrir enraged but still was unable to move threatened the man, another laugh escaped his lips while stating that his minor threats did not scare him and that if he didn't watch his tongue that he would remove it from his mouth. Rin attempted to bargin with the man, telling him that he could do whatever he wanted to him as long as he let Kairu, Karin, and Fenrir go. The Arrancar denied his request stating that they were all trapped why let three go and only keep one, he then went on to explain that one kid would not satisfy his hunger.

The Arrancar began to leave with them all in hand, only to be stopped by the Shinigami from earlier, releasing his Shikai he cut the Arrancar in half without hesitation or warning. He sealed his Zanpakuto and released the kids, telling them it was not safe in the living world at this time and told them to return to the Seireitei. Upon their return they gave a short report of what happened to their master, he then nodded and told them to continue on with their day and that their was nothing further for them to do for now. The three friends decided to train, after being shown up by an Arrancar they didn't want to be helpless again in that situation. They trained together for hours before finally falling asleep. Rin and Karin curled up next to each other on a blanket and Kairu passed out ontop of his unsheathed Zanpakuto. Kairu woke up first seeing the two of them so close he decided to leave the area and let his mind wander. He was in love with Karin but couldn't admit it, even to Rin who had already told him that he liked Karin.


3rd Division

Kairu was soon placed in the 3rd Division while Karin and Rin were both placed in the 5th Division. They all stayed in touch and even still trained and seen each other on a regular basis. Kairu wasn't to happy about being separated from the other two in his group, but dealt with it in order to raise in rank. His Captain noticed his high spiritual pressure and amazing ability to control his reiatsu, to the point where he was able to cancel out the effects of the Lieutenants reiatsu. Everyone but him in the Division not including the Captain and Lieutenant fell asleep from the release of the Lieutenants reiatsu. They also noticed that Kairu was notably stronger than the others by a lot and was much better at fighting. He soon was promoted to 5th seat. Rin and Karin were both promoted to 4th seat soon after Kairu's promotion. They all decided to celebrate with a few drinks, that was until Fenrir crashed the party. Still furious at Kairu, he demanded a duel, drunk Kairu still accepted.

While walking to the battlegrounds Kairu couldn't stop stumbling and slurring his words. Fenrir, instantly began swinging his Zanpakuto. Kairu without actually thinking dodged every swing while still stumbling around, Fenrir couldn't seem to connect. Furious at the events and that Kairu wasn't even drawing his Zanpakuto, Fenrir grabbed Kairu's arm to hold him still. Kairu pulled him inwards and headbutted him causing Fenrir to let go. Slowly a crowd gathered around the fight, each person cheering for one or the other. Kairu continued to dodge and avoid his advances only to counter strike periodically. The Captain of the 3rd Division walked up and watched as his pupil that was now a 5th seat schooled the 3rd seat in the 11th Division without even drawing his sword. With a smile he seen Kairu spin and kick the kid in the jaw sending him into a tree, flipping towards the kid Kairu released a small amount of reiatu but concentrated it around his feet as he drop kicked Fenrir through four trees and sent him sliding flipping and flying into a mountain side where he finally came to a halt.

Kairu woke up in his room, unaware of the events that unfolded the night before, that was until everyone started talking about it and asking him where he learned to fight like that and if he could teach them. He was not sure what they were talking about. His Captain decided to talk to him and asked him if he had fun last night, Kairu nodded yeah but I can't remember everything that happened. The Captain laughed at his remark and told him the entire story, Kairu was surprised that he was able to take on a higher ranked opponent in the state of mind he was in. It was from that day forward that he began his training to release his Zanpakuto, it would be a long grueling drawn-out process but one that was crucial to his advancement in the Gotei 13. As he began his training he was called upon with a hell butterfly, telling him to report to the Division 3 barracks. As he showed up the entire Division was sitting around the Captain, this is a gather for our Division he said before explaining that they believe a few members deserve a higher position. Their 9th seat Domincia fought the 6th seat Hirinobi, Domincia came out on top switching their positions. Their 7th seat Gomabanto fought their 4th seat Soren, although Gomabanto failed to defeat Soren it was a close battle. The Captain then looked towards Kairu who he went on to say deserved the 3rd seat position currently held by Xavier.

Kairu and Xavier both took their positions, after bowing they began fighting. Xavier unsheathed his sword and circled to his left gauging the distance between them, Kairu only kept his right hand ready to grab the handle of his blade. They engaged each other Xavier swinging only to miss a few times before Kairu spun and punched Xavier in the chest with the back of his right fist taking a wide and low stance while looking the opposite direction of Xavier. Able to get up Xavier ran in to attack once again only for Kairu to get up on his tippy toes and walk backwards in a fast fashion before making Xavier miss his swing by less than an inch before stopping his movement and punching Xavier with both fists his right hand hit the stomach and his left came in contact with Xavier's face, Kairu was bent sideways towards Xavier with his right foot forward. Xavier hit the wall, as he got back up and wiped the blood from his lips he charged in once again. Kairu sidestepped and spun as he lowered his body close to the floor and fully extended his leg tripping Xavier, Kairu wasted no time in flipping over himself and driving his extended leg into the lower back of Xavier. Spinning around while getting back on his feet Kairu kept his left hand fully extended towards Xavier and his right bent behind his back resting. Xavier stood up slowly before looking at Kairu and charging in swinging his sword with both strength and speed that he had yet to loose, but his focus was off making it easy for Kairu to dodge the blade without moving from his current position. Kairu waited and as Xavier thrusted his sword towards Kairu's face Kairu moved his head and pulled Xavier in, as he let go of his arm Xavier still stumbling towards Kairu. Kairu then thrusted his shoulder into Xavier's chin, this caused the man to fly back letting go of his Zanpakuto and hitting a wall thus ending the fight. The Captain was pleased with the performance, for Kairu was known to fight without drawing his Zanpakuto. Kairu was then named the 3rd seat of the 3rd Division, thus ranking him higher than his friends.


Shikai Training

Kairu was ordered to train with Ryu Roshi who was an expert in the releases of the Zanpakuto considering his master was Ōetsu Nimaiya, who was the creator of the Zanpakuto. As Kairu reached the top of a mountain said to be the home of Ryu Roshi, he seen a medium sized shack. Knocking on the door he was greeted by an old hermit looking guy with cane and a hunched back who spoke slowly and with a moderate amount of breaks between words and some syllables. Kairu bowed and explained his reason for being there, after eating and having a cup of tea with Master Roshi they proceeded down to the darkened basement. Roshi went on to explain that one needs to enter their Zanpakuto's Spirit World, and there is where they will speak with the Spirit of their Zanpakuto and learn it's name, only then will he be able to release his Shikai. Kairu nodded, and after asking a few questions the hermit hit him on the head causing him to sit Indian style and unable to get up. Roshi explains to him that he will be unable to move until he releases his Shikai, and explains how to go about releasing it. Kairu began to meditate trying to contact his Zanpakuto spirit, and no matter how long he sat there it seemed as if he was getting nowhere. Days had passed only for Kairu to merely hear a voice but was unable to hear what the words were it said. More days went by and finally Kairu was able to see a figure, though it was only an outline he could see it. As he tried to speak with it he was unable to communicate with it. Now over a month went by and simply Kairu has only seen an outline of a man.

Roshi watched as Kairu meditated for over three months yet still no sign of him breaking the spell. Though he did have students that died during this step and even some that sat for years before achieving Shikai. Kairu had finally reached a world one that was humid, it was uncomfortably hot. There he seen a man, one not to far from his own appearance. Though close in appearance the man was a bit darker and had spiky hair. His manner of speaking was almost the opposite of Kairu in the fact that he was loud and seemed to be agitated. The spirit asked if Kairu was retarded or deaf, Kairu confused at the question simply said neither, and asked why he would ask such a question. The Spirit went on insulting Kairu while explaining that he had been calling him for a few years now with no reply. Kairu explained that he hadn't heard the man speaking to him. The spirit sat down and wondered if Kairu was worthy of knowing his name, but after a few days of talking he finally decided it was time for Kairu to release his powers. The spirit told Kairu his name and the release phrase of his Shikai, and went on to tell Kairu to swallow his Zanpakuto after saying the release phrase. Kairu woke up instantly and spoke saying his release phrase as he did the spell broke and he swallowed his sword. As he did, his Reiatsu began to spike and a mist flowed through the area. Roshi smiled, and explained that Shi no Rōtasu was only given to those who's spirits are hard workers and dedicated warriors. Roshi stood up, and explained that now they would train together.

After 3 years of training, Roshi began to see a huge difference in his abilities. Then another 3 years passed and finally Roshi had to release his Shikai just to stay on par with Kairu. Then after 4 years something happened that has never happened to Roshi before, he had to release his Bankai in order to keep up with Kairu's abilities. Roshi was amazed at the pure talent that Kairu had, but after 10 years of training he now increased that talent into a high amount of skill. Kairu became close to Shi no Rōtasu since the only people he was able to communicate with in 10 years was Master Roshi and Shi no Rōtasu. Upon his return to the 3rd Division he seen that the previous lieutenant was now the Captain and the new Lieutenant was Soren, the two explained that in his absence the Captain was killed by Fenrir along with the Captain of the 11th Division, and they further explained that Fenrir was now the Kenpachi, and that not one person was brave enough to challenge him to a fight.


Kairu's Rise

Kairu didn't stop training and was sent out on multiple mission to the living world to execute fleeing Shinigami. He was also in charge of the execution squad, for years he was okay with his position. But he wanted to be the Lieutenant of the 3rd Division, for in his absence Rin became the Captain of squad 5 and Karin became the lieutenant of squad 5. He was unaware but they were now engaged, since he has been on execution missions for 4 years he only gets missions via hell butterfly and is barely ever in the Seireitei anymore. He was told to execute a previous Captain level Shinigami that was residing in the living world under the cover of being a tattoo artist for the Yakuza. He tracked down the Captain making sure he was unseen, but it was not him being seen that gave him away it was the feel of his reiatsu. The man said his name was Hakuma and asked what Kairu's name was, Kairu figured it was useless to stay hidden, and he to introduced himself as the execution squad leader and the 3rd seat of the 3rd Division, Hakuma only smiled at his reply.

Hakuma invites Kairu to have a cup of tea with him, Kairu accepts the invitation but tells him he is still going to kill him before everything is said and done. Hakuma only laughed and continued towards his house. Hakuma no longer in his gigai asked Kairu why he was told to execute him, Kairu answered by telling him he didn't ask any questions and they gave him no reason. Hakuma nodded and asked why he would follow orders without knowing why those orders were given, Kairu again went on to explain that it was not his job to ask question it was his job to carry out orders. Hakuma nodded as they continued drinking their tea, it had been sometime since he had left the Gotei 13 so why now was there an order to kill him, he thought. Kairu finished his tea and stood up, explaining that he would let Hakuma finish his tea before he would kill him. Hakuma bowed his head in respect, as he finished his tea he stood up as well and bowed to him asking if they could take this to the basement. As they declined down the staircase they entered a large training area, the man explained that he built this area to train those who needed help training. Kairu was in awe the only other place he had seen like this was Master Roshi's basement but Hakuma's was much bigger and it looked like a battle ground while Roshi's looked like a dojo.

Kairu and Hakuma began their battle, Kairu only avoided the attacks of Hakuma stating that he would not advance in the battle until Hakuma released his Bankai. Hakuma laughed and asked why Kairu would assume he had a Bankai, Kairu went on to explain that most Captain level Shinigami have a Bankai. Hakuma nodded and said that was true, and then released his Shikai, explaining that he had never needed to use his Bankai for no opponent had ever lasted through his Shikai. Kairu released his Shikai as well and stood in front of Hakuma not attacking at the moment. Hakuma began attacking only to find out that Kairu's Shikai was much to strong for his own and released his Bankai stating, the only person to force his Bankai to be released was the Kenpachi himself. As dust filled the battlefield, Kairu released his final attack in his Shikai which killed the man near instantly. In his last breathe the man smiled and said he had never seen such a powerful Zanpakuto aside from his own.

Kairu returned to the Gotei with the body of Hakuma, the Captain of the 3rd division was pleased and asked if he had any plans for the evening. Kairu nodded and said he would like to challenge the Lieutenant of the 3rd Division for his position. The Captain allowed the Challenge and Soren accepted, It was not even a fair fight Soren released his Shikai only to be defeated by Kairu without him releasing his zanpakuto at all. He was now the lieutenant of the 3rd Division, and as such he gave his position as the execution squad leader to Soren. As the Lieutenant he sat around practicing and helping the division in any way he could. He also used his free time to catch up with Rin and Karin, who explained that they were getting married. Kairu excited for his friends but sad because he was in love with Karin still. At the ceremony Kairu got wasted and left early, Rin chased after him and they talked. Rin felt sorry but explained that he would find somebody for himself soon. Karin was kidnapped from the ceremony in Kairu and Rin's absence. While holding Karin the man with a mask explained that a great war was about to erupt, and the Shinigami would stand no chance.


The Great War Beginning

Rin reported back to the Gotei 13 while Kairu continued the search for Karin. Sending both the 3rd and 5th squads on a rescue mission, it severely depleted the power of the Gotei 13. The Arrancar took that time to attack them in their own home, stating that it was payback for the Shinigami invading their home years ago and killing their soldiers. The Head Captain kept their forces at bay for sometime sending a hell butterfly out informing the Captains of the invasion and informing both the 3rd and 5th squads as well. The 3rd squad retreated and returned to battle the intruders, but Kairu decided to stay with the 5th squad and search for Karin. Deciding that they prolly took her back to Hueco Mundo, Kairu contacted a friend in the living world that had unique resources. Just as he thaught the man had a way to send them into Hueco Mundo, it was upon their arrival that they were stopped by an Arrancar one claiming to serve under Zaimon who kidnapped the Shinigami.

Kairu told the rest of the team to go on ahead, and that he would handle Udon the Arrancar. After a short argument between Kairu and Rin, Rin finally agreed to take the team on ahead. Udon tried to stop them but as he turned to attack the group Kairu had already flashstepped in front of his attack and hit it away with his hand. Udon applauded Kairu, since he was able to stop his Cero with little effort. Kairu told the Arrancar that he should just give up and let them be, of course the Arrancar denied the proposal. Attacking Kairu the Arrancar was swatted down like a fly, frustrated the Arrancar released his Zanpakuto only to be stopped again. Despite not being able to injure Kairu he continued his assault, Kairu continue to hit him away. Kairu offered one more option, he told him either he could turn tail now and keep his life or he could attack again and die. Taking it as an insult the Arrancar attacked once again but as he did Kairu cut through his attack with great speed and ran straight through the Arrancar, a few seconds after the attack landed Kairu sheathed his Zanpakuto and as he did the Arrancar fell in half dead. Kairu turned around and continued forward, attempting to catch up to the team he had came to Hueco Mundo with.

Rin reached a tower, as he entered he had the team split up into four groups to take the four different doorways, Rin went forward on his own through one doorway. Kairu entered the tower sensing Rin's spiritual pressure spiking as if he was in the midst of a battle. Kairu felt the spiritual pressure of most his allies fade to nothing and a few he had never felt before disappear as well. Kairu ran in through a random doorway, reaching another enemy claiming to be the strongest of the Privaron Espada. Kairu took no extra time sensing Rin in danger, he released his Shikai and moments latter the Espada was already laying lifeless on the ground. Kairu continued forward, towards Rin's reiatsu. Kairu reached a clearing seeing Karin stuck in a prison cell and Rin bleeding on his knees, Kairu rushed in as Zaimon attacked. Unable to get there in time Rin had suffered a fatal blow, Kairu took no time in attacking Zaimon. As the battle commenced Kairu took the upper hand only to be shot towards a wall with a cero, removing himself from the wall Kairu stood across from the man with a short exchange of words the battle continued. Kairu found himself outmatched by the Segunda Espada, that was until he released his Shikai. They became evenly matched until Kairu used his most powerful attack and killed the Espada.

Kairu went back to the Gotei with Karin in his arms injured but alive, upon his return the war continued, Kairu was placed in the reserve squad, the war raged on for awhile longer. During the war Karin and Kairu got closer, she only had Kairu left, she was placed in charge of the 5th Division, but had little to nobody left due to the mission they carried out in Hueco Mundo. Karin and Kairu confined in each other, filling the void left in her heart she found Kairu there when she needed him the most. Kairu also found Karin getting closer to him in their friends death. Kairu and Karin continued their friendship throughout the war, soon Kariu and Karin found out that the enemy had retreated in the face of defeat. Upon their victory the Gotei 13 started to rebuild the squads, they all received candidates that were more than worthy of filling the open positions.


Kenpachi

Kairu and Karin had become much closer after 8 years, Kairu still a Lieutenant he was seen as a strong individual but was also seen as second best behind his Captain. Following order to a 'T' Kairu was always seen around the Gotei running errands and keeping things under control, he became close with many of the other Shinigami despite most squads not getting along nearly everyone loved Kairu, NEARLY everyone. Kairu was looked down on by the Kenpachi, Fenrir. Kairu and Karin got married, and Fenrir took it upon himself to challenge Kairu at the ceremony, Kairu denied the challenge only to be made fun of by Fenrir. Kairu ignored the childish behavior of the Kenpachi but it enraged Karin, after telling Fenrir to leave immediately Karin threatened him. Fenrir laughed as he attempted to hit Karin for her words but his hand was stopped by Kairu who was continuing to eat as he stopped the hand of the Kenpahi effortlessly.

Fenrir attacked seriously the second time but was still stopped by Kairu as if he grabbed a normal humans fist. Fenrir now enraged kicked Kairu backwards causing him to slid a few feet, as Fenrir attacked again the Captain of squad 3 got in between the two and told the Kenpachi that this was neither the time nor the place for this. Fenrir, decided it wasn't worth the hassle and walked back to his barracks. After a few days Fenrir continued to push Kairu around, Kairu didn't mind but Karin hated it as well as his Captain. After a few weeks of this both Karin and his Captain told him to stand up to Fenrir, Kairu explained that it would be a waste of time since Fenrir is hard headed and doesn't learn his lesson even after being defeated, and went on to explain that Fenrir will eventually get bored and stop if he didn't acknowledge him. Karin only sighed as they left and went back to their shack that sat midway between the 3rd and 5th barracks. They found themselves madly in love, tho Kairu couldn't help but remember he was her second love behind his best friend. But that didn't mean Karin didn't love him just the same as she did Rin.

Fenrir took it to the next step the very next day, cutting at Kairu with his Zanpakuto only for it to be stopped right before impact by his own Zanpakuto. Fenrir smiled at the reaction, and attacked more ferociously, Kairu continued to defend and hit Fenrir in the mid-section causing him to slide back and release his Shikai. As both their reiatsu collided it caused many Shinigami to gather to watch the spectacle, many low level Shinigami couldn't stand the collision and were forced to struggle under the pressure. As the two continued the battle Fenrir found himself outmatched and Kairu hadn't even released his Shikai yet. They both were injured and the Kenpachi showed no sign of slowing down, forcing Kairu to release his Shikai. Soon after the release Fenrir found himself waking up in the 4th Division recovering from serious injuries. After waking up he went back to find Kairu was given the title of Kenpachi and the Captain position of the 11th Division. Fenrir now more enraged than ever attacked him once again but with his injuries he was quickly disposed of. He was then imprisoned for his actions, but soon he broke out and left to the living world where nobody heard from him.

Kairu then led the 11th Division as the Kenpachi, and was given some trouble by the division for awhile before they realized that Kairu was nobody to mess with. The Division soon welcomed him with open arms after being beat around a few times. Kairu and Karin continued their relationship to the point where they eventually had a kid. They raised the kid and trained him from a young age for 15 years the kid trained before entering the academy. He excelled in all areas, and in a very short time was placed in squad 6. Where he was placed as a 9th seat officer in the Division. Kairu and Karin continued to train with their son making them all much better in combat. They lived as a happy family defending the Seireitei from all threats. They named their son after their fallen friend, Rin was a good son and a better officer in the Gotei 13. He quickly rose in rank just like his Mother and Father did. Despite this the Captain of the 6th Division was extremely hard on him, it was for his own good but he didn't know that.


Death of his Beloved

Kairu and his family lived in peace for another 10 years before the next event occurred. Fenrir, had been long forgotten, at least by most. He was still wanted more than any other enemy of the Gotei 13. They just couldn't seem to find him, that was until he came back on his own freewill. Fenrir, had a talk with the Captain Commander, it turned bad quick and Fenrir killed him. Fenrir then went on to hold back three Captain level shinigami by himself, he seen Karin and the Captain of Division 3 and got furious at the thought of Kairu. He then went on to severely injure both of them in a short period of time as if he was fighting low level opponents. Kairu caught wind of this and went to confront him knowing he wanted Kairu and nobody else. When Kairu showed up Fenrir, threatened the life of Karin and his previous Captain, Kairu offered him his life to let them go. Fenrir laughed as he killed them both in cold blood denying the offer. Kairu ran up to Karin where he fell to his knees just as Fenrir kicked him in the side of the face sending him into a wall.

Rin seen the actions and got upset enough to charge the man, soon Rin was grabbed by the throat and sent into the ground coughing up blood from the impact. Kairu stood up wiping blood from his head and mouth, demending he let go of Rin. Fenrir smiled, saying that the name sounds familiar, he then remembered that was the name of his best friend and Karin's lover who died. Fenrir laughed, and asked if it was his son. Kairu didn't answer, that made Fenrir slam him once more into the ground causing Kairu to answer him truthfully explaining who he was. Fenrir congratulated him as he snapped the neck of the boy, and laughed as he apologized sarcastically. Kairu rushed in only to be defeated as easily as he defeated Fenrir two times before. He noticed the severe increase in Fenrir's power. He knew he wasn't a match yet, Fenrir took the seat of the Captain Commander and told everyone if they disagreed they could take it up with him, needless to say nobody did anything. Kairu was imprisoned, soon he was broke out by a friend, the same friend that was from the living world that helped them enter Hueco Mundo.

Kairu went to the living world and trained with the man for a month, as he did he achieved Bankai, a release that frightened the man to the point he wouldn't face him in a spar after it's release. Kairu returned to the Gotei 13 and challenged Fenrir once again, this time the two collided with killing intent. Kairu to avenge his family and the Gotei and Fenrir to avenge his name and rank. They fought as if the fate of the Gotei 13 and their lives depended on it, as they should because that was the exactly the things that were on the line. They instantly released their Bankai, they both fought hard and both were great warriors. Kairu continued to use his abilities to avoid injury and take the upper hand, Fenrir got enraged at the events. The battle reached it's most deadly point, the surrounding Shinigami had to back up from the fight. Kairu ended the battle with an ultimate attack that ate through Fenrir leaving nothing but a few specs of blood and some clothing. With the events that occurred, many seen Kairu as a hero and a unanimous decision was made appointing Kairu Captain Commander.


Captain Commander

Kairu made decisions to better the Gotei 13 and rebuilt the squads that were devastated in the short time Fenrir was in command, with many lives lost there was many positions to be filled. Still now with most the positions open, he has yet to appoint anyone to take the place of them as of yet. But he is still new as the Captain Commander and is using his time to scout prospects for the open positions, with many skilled candidates he intends to choose wisely. He refuses to let the events reoccur that had just passed, he is deciding to test the Shinigami so he can avoid a rebellion or at least delay it for as long as possible. Kairu is looked up to, and is even revered as a hero one that was greatly needed and one that was greatly appreciated. The Gotei 13 is weakened at the moment, but Kairu is determined to fix that. After only a week in the position he was appointed head of his family and was given their family haori which he has placed the Division 1 symbol on the back and wears on a regular basis.

Kairu is now months into his Captain position, and is still looking for the perfect people to fill the open positions. His personality has changed drastically since the events that occurred only a month and a few weeks ago. He is still the same person for the most part just a little personality change, he is still loved by everyone and is seen as the same hero as he was when he received the position. Most people wouldn't have been able to take what had happened to him and carry on with life, but he knew he was needed more than ever and used that to continue forward through his life knowing that is what Karin and both Rin's would have wanted. He was still shook up about the events but didn't let them hinder his performance as the Head Captain of the 13 Court Guard Squads. He is now looking for the most powerful candidates to take over each squad and the newly made titles of Yonkō as well as the position of Kenpachi.
