Before him, resplendent in its golden glory,

stood a card bearing the inscription of the esteemed Kido Corps.

Yet, it was not merely a division within their ranks,

but the entirety of the Kido Corps itself - an assembly of extraordinary individuals who are tasked to presided over spiritual law and protection of the realm.

The weight of this profound realization settled upon Blake,

a profound sense of relief washing over him like a gentle tide.

In the depths of his being, he felt his spirit buoyed by the knowledge that his arduous journey was finally reaching a turning point.

With the formidable might of the Kido Corps standing at his side,

their vast numbers and unparalleled expertise would serve as a resolute answer to the void of manpower that had plagued him.

Their arrival heralded a transformative moment, one where Blake could release the burdens that had weighed heavily upon him and find solace in the capable hands of the Kido Corps,

He could entrust them with the duties of the academy, realm protection, and the purification of souls and hollows.

A respite awaited him, a well-deserved break from the relentless demands of his new role as the Soul King.

From the time he transmigrated till now,

At that time, he was suddenly shouldered the weight of such a heavy responsibility and

he has to always maintain a facade, projecting an image of his unwavering strength and authority as the Soul King over his subordinates .

Now, with this extraordinary opportunity before him,

he could allow himself to revel in the sheer joy of being Blake, an individual who had been unexpectedly transmigrated to this extraordinary world,

where gods presided and miracles unfolded and explore it with contest.

Immersed in the profound depths of his fantasy,

Blake momentarily lost himself in the realm of his thoughts, the notion of the Kido Corps momentarily slipping from his consciousness.

Yet, as the room pulsated with an immense turmoil of spiritual energy,

a palpable aura of power and expertise manifested before him.

Emerging from within this ethereal maelstrom, the members of the Kido Corps materialized before him in all their resplendent glory.

Their black robes, adorned with enigmatic symbols. Each member emanated an aura of both secrecy and command.

Jolted back to reality, Blake quickly composed himself, rising to his full stature with regal poise befitting the exalted title of the Soul King.

His countenance radiated both authority and humility as he regarded the formidable assembly before him.

However, before Blake could regain his composure,

he found himself completely rendered speechless by the awe-inspiring sight that unfolded before him.

The sheer magnitude of the gathering left him dumbfounded, his mind struggling to comprehend the vast number of individuals standing in front of him.

As far as his eyes could discern, the expanse was filled with a sea of black robes and white masks, akin to a teeming colony of ants.

The multitude was so immense that his gaze could not fathom their definite count.

and he remembered, similar was the case for the divsion 6 of byakuya where there should have been a modest count of 200 members it was a lot more.

At the time of their summoning, he had not paid much heed to this peculiarity.

However, as he roamed and visited within the expanse of the headquarters, he finally understood the extraordinary truth that the entire Spiritual Realm, the Seireitei, and the members of the various divisions had, are lot bigger, expanding beyond the confines of their original numbers, perhaps tenfold or even fifteenfold of what was seen and told in 'Bleach'.

Diverting his gaze at the front.

"Standing there should be its Grand Commander and vice Commander" thought Blake maintaining his calm demeanour.

But in the depths of his being, Blake felt a profound sense of satisfaction at the sight of these esteemed practitioners of the art of Kidō.

The Kidō Corps, an esteemed branch of Soul Society's military, was renowned for its unparalleled expertise in Kidō and maintaining the intricate discipline of spiritual law within the Seireitei.

Their presence would undeniably fortify the strength and capabilities of his burgeoning forces.

With a voice that resonated with authority and reverence, Blake addressed the newly arrived members of the Kidō Corps.

His words carried the weight of his exalted role as the Soul King, each syllable imbued with both power and respect. "Esteemed members of the illustrious Kidō Corps, your arrival heralds a moment of paramount significance in the annals of the Soul Society. Your unwavering mastery of the intricate art of Kidō shall prove to be an invaluable asset as we embark upon our mission to restore order and prosperity to our realm."

Stepping forward, Commander Tessai Tsukabishi, the revered leader of the Kidō Corps and the esteemed Grand Kidō Chief,

emanated an aura of quiet strength and profound wisdom.

Blake's gaze descended upon the figure before him, and within the depths of his consciousness, a flicker of recognition illuminated his mind.

Memories, once buried beneath the layers of time, resurfaced of a tall, muscular figure, lightly tan-skinned, with cornrowed hair and a magnificent handlebar mustache.

This was the same individual who had served as the shopkeeper in Urahara's shop—a familiar face,

but now still standing resolute as the Grand Commander of the Kidō Corps, exuding an air of authority and wisdom.

Clad in the customary Shinigami robes, the darkness of his blue garment intertwined with the intricate details that bespoke his rank within the esteemed Kidō Corps.

Adorned with the emblem that represented their sacred discipline, Tessai's presence was amplified by the firm grip upon his shakujō, the symbol of his authority.

His distinctive hairstyle, styled into little horns, and his elongated mustache further accentuated his unique presence.

Through eyes sharp and discerning,

Tessai surveyed his surroundings, his gaze penetrating the veil of superficiality to grasp the profound essence within.

Finally, his perceptive eyes met Blake's, a silent acknowledgement of the exalted authority the Soul King commanded.

With a voice that resonated with unwavering respect,

Tessai spoke, his words carrying the weight of his dedication to the spiritual law. "We stand before you, Soul King, as the sentinels entrusted with safeguarding the very fabric of the spiritual realm," he declared, his voice imbued with purpose and reverence.

"It is our unwavering duty to uphold the delicate equilibrium that sustains our realm's harmony and order."

As the echoes of Tessai's profound declaration reverberated throughout the chamber,

Blake's gaze swept across the gathered members of the Kidō Corps.

Each visage bore the indelible mark of resolute determination,

their black robes adorned with symbols representing their mastery of the multifaceted aspects within the Kidō corps.

A palpable sense of unity pervaded the air, like an unspoken bond forged through a shared commitment to their sacred calling.

"As esteemed members of the Kidō Corps, you shall operate from the veiled recesses of shadow, invisible yet ever vigilant, ensuring the preservation of our spiritual law and the protection of our realm," Blake proclaimed, his voice resonating with the weight of immense responsibility.

"Furthermore, you shall collaborate closely with the other divisions, bestowing upon them your unmatched expertise and support in times of dire need."

Vice-Kidō Chief Hachigen Ushōda, a figure both commanding and humble, nodded in unwavering agreement.

His silent affirmation served as a testament to the unison of purpose that permeated their ranks.

"We, the Kidō Corps, embrace the full magnitude of our sacred duty, Soul King. With resolute hearts, we shall honor our obligation to preserve the delicate equilibrium and order of the Soul Society, all while shrouding our craft in the veil of secrecy as you demand." Said Hachigen.

Blake's gaze fell upon Hachigen, his excitement stirring within at the realization of the man's untapped potential.

For within Hachigen Ushōda lay the latent capacity to transcend the boundaries of his current existence,

to venture into the realm of the Visored—a realm where the union of Shinigami and Hollow powers converged.

Hachi, a man of considerable girth, stood tall, his massive form engulfed by a long purple mantle,

draped over the standard Shinigami robes that adorned his figure.

His distinctive hair, styled into two small horns, bore the signature touch of black-tipped ends,

while the emblem of the Kidō Corps embellished the center of his attire.

Unfazed by the daunting magnitude of the task that lay before them, Blake continued to outline his visionary plans. "As the arduous process of reconstruction within Rukongai is completed, the Kidō Corps shall assume their role, a role of paramount significance," he declared.

"In your unwavering dedication, you shall continue to safeguard the Senkaimon, release the Sōkyoku Seal during executions, and perform other vital duties that ensure the harmony of our realm."

Curiosity piqued, Blake turned his attention to Tessai, his gaze probing. "Commander Tessai, enlighten me about the number and strength of your esteemed corps," he requested, eager to comprehend the scope of their collective might.

With an air of respect and deference, Tessai stepped forward, his voice resonating with clarity. "In total, we stand united as 26,000 stalwart members within our ranks of the Kidō Corps," he revealed.

"Our organization, unique in its structure, eschews the conventional divisions or branches that permeate the Gotei 13," Tessai explained, his tone reflecting a profound wisdom.

"Instead, we embrace a cohesive unity, a tapestry of harmonious strength that recognizes the boundless power inherent in our shared purpose."

Within the Kidō Corps, the hierarchical divisions that defined the Gotei 13 faded into obscurity.

Instead, a sense of shared purpose prevailed, transcending the limitations imposed by individual branches.

While the revered positions of Commander and Vice Commander existed, they served not as dividers but as unifying pillars, anchoring the corps in a cohesive whole.

Hearing the number, Blake was completly shocked

The revelation of the Kidō Corps' impressive number—26,000 stalwart souls—seized Blake's consciousness with a shockwave of astonishment.

Comparisons to the 200 members per division within the Gotei 13 as portrayed in the anime painted a stark contrast and it looks like the others department also has more members than the original universe just like the Kidō corps" thought blake excitedly.

The responsibilities entrusted to the Kidō Corps were vast and far-reaching.
