Espada positions, from ranks 1 to 10, can be applied for with the same application for the Gotei 13 on the same board. However, keep in mind that whoever applies for Primera Espada (Espada No. 1) then this also means you are applying for leadership of the Espada and essentially rulership over Hueco Mundo, and I will be all the more strict on that application.
