Yamamoto founded the Shinō Academy 2,100 years ago and personally instructed Shunsui Kyōraku and Jūshirō Ukitake. He founded the Gotei 13 and became its Captain-Commander. During his time as Captain-Commander, he presided over a number of incidents in Soul Society's history, from the extermination of the Quincy to the Hollowfication of the Visored and the betrayal of Sōsuke Aizen and subsequent war with him and his Arrancar army. Around a thousand years ago, he failed to kill the Vandenreich Leader, a fact that comes back to hurt the Gotei 13 later as the Vandenreich declare war on Soul Society.

The picture depicts the moment that Kisuke Urahara, Ichigo Kurosaki, Orihime Inoue and Yasutora Sado accompany Nel Tu and Pesche Guatiche back to Hueco Mundo in a bid to rescue the captured Dondochakka Birstanne and learn more about the Vandenreich conquest of Hueco Mundo.

"I order all captains to prepare for battle immediately. Their soldiers announced that war will start in five days, but how can we trust the words of the wicked cowards that made such a heinous raid on us? Make your preparations as quickly as you can. We will not let them have the first move again!" - Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, chapter 488.
