The Captain-Commander seemed to have to hear out the boy's explanation that he'd been given the haori by Himotoya Saori. This made the eyes of the Sixth Division Captain narrow, but she supposed there were worse things. The Captain-Commander raised a brow to this news, but said nothing about it immediately. On the claim that this lad had apparently lost his mind during his extended stay at the Senzaikyuu Tamamura didn't really agree. She'd faced this young man in fair combat, and he'd made it fair for her, even when it was evident that she was supposed to be very far ahead of him. She doubted a mere three months was enough to drive him crazy. Nor did she simply question the logic of his previous Captain. "Himotoya-taichou is a lot of things, but she is rarely wrong about people. Given who taught her how to scout talent, I'd take her word over anyone else's," she said with a curt nod. The Captain-Commander finished their tea and looked at the lad, before them. "While I will agree it is more than a bit outlandish, for anyone so young to have already developed a Bankai. If Himotoya Saori thought him worthy of potential Captaincy, we deserve to at least see if he possesses the Bankai he claims to have. There are at least three of us present so he could in theory claim his division as he put it... right now. If he doesn't have one, I'll talk to Benkei and see if he will take the Captaincy instead, that seems fair," said the Captain Commander standing and carrying the oodachi which made up their Zanpakuto. "Outside then... I can't have you wrecking my office... even potentially." and with that said a door to an outer courtyard would be open.
