Bleach: The Captain of the Fifth Division Becomes Stronger Through Training.

Chapter 135: 134: The Kuchiki Family

birthday present.

This statement itself represents the meaning of mutual care and concern among relatives and friends.

"Even someone who is not good at speaking can express his feelings in this way... So, I think this choice should be good for Byakuya."

Don’t like talking?
Are they all literal dumb people?
It doesn't matter, just put the gift in your mouth, and you will understand what the intention is...

Although we are nominally outsiders, we have been getting along with each other for some time.

Arima Shizuka now knows a little about the way the Kuchiki family gets along, which is why she has such thoughts at this moment.

"It doesn't matter if you can't open your mouth. As long as the other person receives the gift, your thoughts have been fully conveyed to the other person."

Seeing the boy in front of her still with a dazed expression, Arima Jing couldn't help but chuckle.

It seems that this guy has never remembered the birthdays of his elders... Well, this is normal.

After all, if no one teaches these things, it still takes some talent to understand them on your own.

Or……

"Bai Ya, you don't actually respect your grandfather that much?"

Kuchiki Byakuya shook his head repeatedly, the confusion in his eyes completely gone.

"No, that's not the case! Thank you, Mr. Arima, I know what to do now!"

Although he is stupid and stubborn, this guy is indeed a good kid.

——Since Kuchiki Ginrei has already told him to let him do what he wants, Arima Shizuka will naturally not be polite.

The first lesson is to teach you how to repair your relationship with your family!
I watched as Byakuya clumsily but seriously began to select the shape, material, and prepare to schedule the construction period.

Arima Shizuka also smiled with relief.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Kuchiki Byakuya suddenly turned his head half way, and at this moment he smiled and said to Arima Shizuka.

"Mr. Arima, I'll give you one too!"

what?
I can still have a share in this.

No, no, you know, things here are not cheap.

According to Arima Shizuka's income level, he basically can't afford anything in this store...

Subconsciously, she wanted to refuse, but Byakuya Kuchiki's attitude was quite firm.

"Since we have to give gifts, Mr. Arima has helped me so much, I must bring one too."

Otherwise, why do people say this guy is stubborn.

In the face of complete failure of persuasion, Arima Shizuka could only agree with a wry smile.

Well, I'd better obey your command... But I didn't expect that this noble young man was so extraordinary that he directly bought a small incense made of fragrant wood for Arima Shizuka.

This thing is designed with a hollow middle. Although it looks only about one finger long, it has been modified to be detachable.

Twist it open and you can put something fragrant inside...

Because of its small size, it can be directly clipped into a looser Shibayou suit, which is convenient and easy to use.

The owner was thoughtful enough to put in some aromatic herbs that were broken and crushed.

Arima Shizuka also dropped it directly around her waist and wrapped it around the scabbard.

Because it was the first time to tinker with these things, he was somewhat nervous - the person fiddled with it for a while, and finally turned his head half way and said with some embarrassment.

"How...how is it?"

Kuchiki Byakuya is not one to flatter others, so he said thoughtfully.

"It is said that Lord Yinling also liked to dress like this when he was young. Although I have never seen it, it is probably the same as this... Well, it fits Mr. Arima's temperament very well."

really?
Oops, I'm so sorry...

I wanted to say something, but Byakuya had already paid the deposit and payment.

Rich young men are generous in this regard.

I originally thought that the matter would come to an end, but when I was about to leave, Arima Shizuka seemed to suddenly remember something.

Suddenly stopped.

Beside him, Byakuya Kuchiki counted his wallet and stopped when he noticed something was wrong.

"What's the matter, Mr. Arima?"

Arima Shizuya's expression was a little hesitant, as if he had been thinking carefully for a while before he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Um...Bai Ya, can you lend me some money?"

"...Ah? Of course!"

There is no reason not to agree.

After all, it was something that Arima Shizuka had to take the initiative to ask for, so Kuchiki Byakuya would agree to it even if he had to bite the bullet.

just.

"Does Mr. Arima want to buy anything?"

The person's face twitched a little, and finally revealed a faint smile.

"Yeah, because of what I was saying to Byakuya just now, I suddenly remembered..."

I also have people to thank.

After thanking Byakuya, Arima Shizuka returned to the store.

……

January flies by in a flash.

During this period, Arima Shizuka never stopped training with Kuchiki Byakuya.

Because the other party was also very hardworking, Arima Shizuka naturally had no intention of holding back.

As far as the art of kendo was concerned, Arima Shizuka naturally taught him everything he knew.

At the same time, he also made some targeted suggestions and improvements to Byakuya Kuchiki's tactics.

"Your Zanpakutō, Senbonzakura's ability is to disperse the blade into something similar to a blade, and then attack the opponent, right?"

Kuchiki Byakuya held his Zanpakutō in his hand and nodded respectfully in response.

"Yes."

"Then you should adapt to the characteristics and make some changes in your tactics."

Arima Shizuka also spoke with emotion.

"Flexible and graceful. At the same time, he has the special ability to increase speed and precision by raising his hands."

"This shows that your Zanpakutō should be used for harassment and secondary attack."

"What are you trying to do by just gathering the blades of Senbonzakura together and throwing them at the target?"

All I can say is that there is nothing wrong with bullying the weak.

At the same time, it also has a very impactful visual effect.

But it is just as Arima Shizuya said.

"Each Zanpakutō has its own characteristics. Don't be so stubborn and go against your own heart. Accept your true nature."

Byakuya Kuchiki's movements tend to be bold and dramatic.

This is a trait that cannot be changed even after being trained by the Shifengyuan family.

It can be seen that Byakuya Kuchiki seems to be deliberately pursuing uprightness and this form of competition in which the two sides confront each other.

No wonder, all those strange and weird things were developed in Senbonzakura Jingyan later.

"Perhaps after Byakuya acquires Bankai, he can try that kind of behavior. But judging from the current situation, it is better to listen to my advice."

"What should I do to use my power most correctly? Byakuya, this part is also included in my course." "Also, let me think... By the way, if you feel that your means of attack are not sufficient, you can also work on the Kidō."

Although it may be a bit difficult.

But this is indeed the best way to improve combat effectiveness.

"He can use high-numbered Kidō freely, and he also has Senbonzakura as a supplementary attack method. With the combination of the two, Byakuya's combat power will be quite impressive."

This is the tactic that Arima Shizuka also thought of for him, and it also combines some of the content in the original work.

After all, although Baymax is also the captain, he doesn't seem to like using ghost-style methods during confrontations.

Maybe the other party is not a character designed for this purpose...

Byakuya Kuchiki felt a little awkward, but with the help of Shizuya Arima, this feeling soon disappeared.

After all, in terms of attribute values, Arima Shizuya's Kidō level is basically on par with that of an ordinary type of captain.

It may be a little lacking in the ability to compete with others, but it's put here to educate children or something.

That's more than enough.

That's the way of the sword.

The same is true for the ghost path.

After that, the remaining parts are Hakutachi and Shunpo.

Arima Shizuka also did not hold back at all and was ready to teach it all to Byakuya.

Perhaps due to the fact that he had trained under Yoruichi in his early years, Kuchiki Byakuya learned very quickly in this area and his progress was very impressive.

The speed of learning even seemed a bit exaggerated to Arima Shizuka, but after thinking about it carefully, she roughly understood it.

"After all, he is a captain. Although his previous learning and experience cannot be directly converted into effective combat power..."

"But by mixing it up myself, I basically drew out all the forces that should have existed."

"Is this the so-called rapid development period?"

Arima Shizuka also made a simple estimate and thought that with Byakuya's current strength, he was more than qualified to be the vice-captain.

If one wants to reach the third level of spiritual power and comprehend Bankai, it will probably take some time to prepare the way.

Taking this into consideration, Arima Shizuka tried to communicate with Shifengyuan Yoruichi through letters, and after getting the other party's permission...

Arima Shizuka also taught the technique of instant coaxing.

In fact, considering the relationship between the Kuchiki family and the Shihouin family, there will basically be no problem as long as Kuchiki Ginrei speaks up.

His behavior at this time was more or less an expression of respect in his heart. After all, the things still belonged to Ye Yi, and Arima Jing couldn't do anything with them without his approval.

As for what will happen after Dabai learns it?

Arima Shizuka also thought that it might not have much of an impact... After all, it could be felt that Byakuya Kuchiki was not interested in any kind of combat techniques.

I am a serious sword lover.

It is estimated that if he had not been forced into a situation where he had no way to retreat, he would not have chosen to use this technique - now he just has an extra trick up his sleeve.

Of course, while teaching Byakuya Kuchiki, Arima Shizuya himself would not just sit there doing nothing.

Then, with the opportunity to teach others, Arima Shizuka also took the chance to review the various skills she had mastered, which could be considered a systematic review.

It's like killing two birds with one stone, which is very satisfying.

The days passed in these trivial and rich times, and soon...

It was Kuchiki Ginling’s birthday.

Although Arima Shizuka also wanted to give the old man a surprise or something, she finally gave up the idea at the strong request of Byakuya Kuchiki.

After finishing the usual dinner.

Byakuya took out the incense and wood utensils that he had ordered in advance and handed them to his grandfather respectfully.

"Master Yinling, thank you for your care all the time."

Even at this point, you’re still not willing to just call me grandpa?

Tsk...that's so awkward.

However, looking at Xiumu Yinling's expression, it was obvious that the other party didn't care much about these things.

It is probably a special play of the Kuchiki family... Arima Shizuka can't understand it, so naturally she won't participate in it.

Although Xiumu Yinling did not show any excitement, he accepted the gift with a calm expression.

The corners of his mouth, which had been tense all the time, relaxed a little, and it seemed that even his tone was not as stiff as usual.

The atmosphere between the grandfather and grandson eased slightly.

"The effect isn't that obvious..."

It seems that there is still a long way to go for these two people to understand and forgive each other.

And considering that there will be a plot later where Dabai rebels and marries a wife, Arima Shizuka has already started to wonder whether he should start giving Yinling a shot of prevention...

Otherwise, what if the elderly person’s blood vessels burst due to the excessive stress you cause?
There are so many things to worry about.

After returning to the room, Arima Shizuka waited for Kuchiki Ginrei's summons as usual.

As usual, they met in the reception room. As soon as Arima Shizuka entered the room, she saw the old man fiddling with the small incense burner that Byakuya had given him.

"sit."

At this moment, he was too lazy to even raise his head... The old man was obviously infected by Arima Shizuya's relaxation, so that he was no longer so tense in private.

"Does Lord Ginrei like the gift Byakuya gave me?"

"It was your idea, right? Byakuya is not that cunning."

"Well, I just gave some suggestions. The one who makes the decision is definitely Byakuya himself."

With a soft sigh, Xiumu Yinling put the things down without making any comment. Now when he looked up again, there was a hint of emotion in his eyes.

"Thank you, Arima-kun."

"It's just a small matter, don't take it to heart."

The old man originally wanted to say something, but after hearing this, he choked for a moment and then smiled and shook his head.

He was a straightforward person who didn't hesitate and went straight to the next topic.

"I have another matter to ask you to come here today. Your internship is about to end."

"Ah, I know that."

There is only about a month left before the end of the semester, and I can return to school after completing my internship in the Sixth Division.

The timing was exactly right, and another year had passed perfectly.

"What I want to say is something else."

Kuchiki Ginrei took out something from his arms and slowly pushed it flat until it was placed in front of Arima Shizuya.

A piece of calligraphy.

The name of Kuchiki Ginrei was written on it, and it was stamped with the seal of the captain of the Sixth Division and the family crest of the Kuchiki family.

"Arima-kun, are you interested in working for my Sixth Division?"

Of course, there is more to it than that.

"You should have heard of the huge size of our Kuchiki family."

"If possible, I wouldn't mind introducing you to some outstanding and young descendants of the side branches..."

Xiumu Yinling retracted his hands and began to caress the small incense altar in front of him.

"I wonder if you are interested in becoming a member of my Kuchiki family?"
