After years of training, he convered with the swords spirit and gained his Zanpakuto. Mastering Shikai was troubling for someone of his age but he managed to learn the skill in 15 years. After he mastered Shikai, he was viewed by the Commander General and offered a job as his seated officer. Yajuumaru took it and was happy to learn that the job of Lieutanant was open. When he was passed over he grew enraged at Yamamoto only to learn that he was being promoted to Captain of the 10th Division. It is known that sometime during this, he mastered Bankai.
