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

Chapter 138 137: Snake and Dragon

Chapter 138 137: Snake and Dragon
Ichimaru Gin.

Entering first-year students.

Characteristics: He is short and thin overall.

There was no sign of trimming on his hair, his eyes were narrowed, and he always had an inexplicable smile that made people feel disgusted.

It's an image that's hard to make people feel good about...

The interviewed teacher frowned and spoke in an uncertain tone.

"Why did you let him enroll? Of course it's because he does have outstanding talent... You can't judge a book by its cover, I guess."

The head teacher, who is also the head of the grade, scratched his head and said.

"Well, because this guy just entered school, everyone's impression of him is definitely not very clear."

The student council member who had met him once before said with a wink.

"If we spend more time together, we might get some more specific information."

The man who was selected as the first-year student with outstanding potential crossed his arms and nodded in thought.

"By that time, everyone's perception of him should have changed a little bit, right?"

The girl in the same class who looked very energetic said a little embarrassedly.

"After all, we still have to be with each other for six years, so just take it slow."

The classmate who was wearing glasses and looked quite intellectual nodded and smiled.

"We'll get to know each other sooner or later, so just be patient."

It turned out to be the case.

Is this probably the impression everyone has of him?

While sorting out the documents in front of him, Arima Shizuya murmured.

"Born in a refugee district that was ranked at the bottom and didn't even have a name... That's amazing. It must be difficult to survive in a place like that."

As she spoke, Arima Shizuka also raised her eyes and smiled at the person in front of her.

"What do you think, Ichimaru-san?"

"As long as we're careful, even a snail can survive in the pen, right?"

Oops.

What you said does make some sense.

Arima Shizuya raised his eyebrows slightly and looked carefully at the person in front of him.

Was that a rather strange-looking... kid?
Using such words to describe a student of the Maou Spiritual Academy is in itself subtly offensive.

But at the same time, Arima Shizuka also felt helpless.

After all, the other person's appearance is indeed childish.

She has short light purple hair and small eyes.

He was probably only about 1.6 meters tall, and even the smallest size of the dormitory uniform looked unusually loose on him.

No, is this guy really that exaggerated?

Kotetsu Yuune is already very thin, and he even looks as thin as a bamboo pole.

Maybe this is what they mean by skin and bones?

However, if you think back carefully to the plot, when Gin Ichimaru first appeared with the deputy captain, Lao Shi, he seemed to have the same childish feeling.

and so.

Is it just simple malnutrition, or is it because they didn't wait until the growth period?
Perhaps because the sight was somewhat strange, the other party couldn't help but ask at this moment.

"So, what is the matter that you want to talk to me about, Senior?"

Ichimaru Gin's voice brought Arima Shizuya's thoughts back to reality.

Sitting in the negotiation room, Arima Jing also coughed twice and made a thoughtful expression at this moment.

Although according to common sense, it would be safer to take a detour at this time and then find other opportunities to slowly test the waters.

but.

The other party was no ordinary person - in the original novel, he graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy in just one year, and then quickly defeated the chief officer and became one of the prison master's confidants.

To have such potential, calculation and scheming.

Playing tricks with this guy is obviously not something that Arimaka is good at.

So it’s better to get straight to the point.

Thinking of this, Arima Jing suddenly revealed a very hearty smile.

"Ichimaru-san, do you still remember my face?"

"..."

The other person's fake smile suddenly became a little stiff.

It seemed that no one had expected this situation, so much so that the atmosphere at this moment became extremely subtle.

After a moment of silence, Ichimaru Gin smiled awkwardly.

"Senior, you must be joking. How could I possibly remember..."

"Many years ago, in the refugee street, there was me, a man with glasses, and a black blind man."

Can't remember?

It's ok.

Let me help you deepen your memory.

"Your friend had something taken away from you, you are helpless, and you are left with half a bag of rings..."

Arima Shizuya raised his right hand with a joking look on his face and pointed it at his own face.

"I."

There was a bang.

It was Ichimaru Gin who almost without thinking pushed away the bench in front of him and tried to throw it at Arima Shizuya.

Although this guy looks small, he is very strong.

With the action of hitting someone, he turned around at the same time, trying to leave here directly.

Can't die.

You must not be controlled by the other party at this time.

I've never met this guy face to face, so why does he have such a deep impression of me?
Careless.

Should have been more careful and attentive.

With a mixture of regret and remorse in his heart, Gin Ichimaru seemed to know his own ending and wanted to run away at this moment.

"His movements are very smooth. He looks skinny, but he's actually very strong."

"If anyone were to judge you based on your appearance alone, they would suffer a small loss."

"I see. Is it by relying on this kind of low-key behavior that one can survive in such an environment?"

It is commendable.

It makes people can't help but praise it.

But at the same time, these things are totally inadequate.

"I'll give you a choice."

The voice came from behind, accompanied by a whisper like a murmur, as if the mud was climbing up and covering his body.

Arima Shizuka also calmly looked at the other person's back, and at this moment he raised his right hand and concentrated the spiritual power on his fingertips.

“Self-destruction.

Rondanini's Black Dog, once read, burns completely...

Slit your own throat.

The ninth way of binding - strike."

The whistling spiritual energy formed a stream and turned into a bright red light band, which directly bound to Ichimaru Gin's body at the speed of being the first to arrive.

The opponent had almost no chance to resist and was directly "hit" and fell heavily to the ground.

My head hit the floor, and I felt sore, swollen and itchy, mixed with desperate thoughts, which completely flooded my heart at this moment.

"Gu..."

Gin Ichimaru's throat rolled for a while, he clenched his teeth unwillingly and twisted his body hard.

"Give up. With your current strength, you will never be able to break through the power of the Binding Dao."

Standing up from the chair, Arima Shizuka slowly walked forward.

There was no trace of sadness or joy on his expression. At this moment, his gaze was fixed on Gin Ichimaru's body, and his words were extremely calm.

"If you want to break through and save yourself, you have to find a way."

"What on earth are you going to do!"

The hysterical voices came from a situation close to despair.

The opponent was a well-educated and famous rookie from Team 13. He was a new student who had no ability to resist at all.

The gap in strength between the two sides is like a chasm, and there is no room for any comeback.

Since we are all going to die, there is naturally no point in pretending so far.

Looking at Ichimaru Gin's open eyes, Arima Shizuka was silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but chuckle.

"Light blue eyes? That's rare. If you didn't make that shady expression so often, you would definitely be very popular."

While expressing her emotion, Arima Jing also reminded.

"Also, don't try to attract others to help by shouting. Although this is inside the school building, it's class time, so there's actually no one around."

in other words.

"The rescue routes you think you can find don't actually exist."

It was planned from the beginning.

After realizing this, Ichimaru Gin pursed his lips and finally slowly closed his eyes.

"……kill me."

It was like a low hum that had given up everything, and the response was a rather playful tone.

"At least you won't do this now, didn't I say that just now?" Arima Shizuka also half-knelt in front of Ichimaru Gin.

"I'm going to give you a choice."

"……What's the meaning?"

Arima Shizuka also raised her right hand towards Ichimaru Gin, raising her index and middle fingers at this moment.

"First, you give up resistance and I'll kill you. With my connections in the academy, it won't be difficult to make you disappear completely."

This is definitely not an exaggeration.

Although Ichimaru Gin's current identity is a student on the list, according to Arima Shizuya's various connections, he wants to completely erase all information related to him...

It's not a difficult task at all.

It was just a matter of saying hello to Kyoraku Shunsui, and even if it was a little more extreme, the prison master's Mirror Flower and Water Moon could do it easily.

It's a literal death situation.

Gin Ichimaru realized this and opened his eyes at this moment.

The essence of this option one was to force him to make other choices. So when the relationship was "broken", he did not hesitate at all.

"Option two."

"Very straightforward, then I will give you a brief description."

Arima Shizuka also chuckled and squatted down.

He clenched his right hand again, then slowly opened it until his index finger was standing upright.

"The action I used to bind you just now is essentially an extension of the ghost way, an ability called the way of binding."

"This is a way to control spiritual power, and it is something you will definitely come into contact with after entering school."

"Concentrate the spiritual power and restrain it. Then, through chanting, condense it into shape, and finally turn it into a light band to control the opponent."

Gin Ichimaru's patience was unexpectedly good. He just remained silent and listened to Arima Shizuya's description.

It was like a snake curled up, waiting for the most appropriate time to attack.

"From now on, I will use the binding technique again."

"I will sing it again carefully and show you the most complete and unreserved process."

"And this time the target...is your neck."

"I will control it continuously, tightening it with every ounce of speed."

"Just like the hemp rope used to hang a criminal, the process will not end until the spiritual energy is exhausted."

After saying these creepy words calmly.

Arima Shizuya said this calmly.

"So, if you want to survive, you only need to do one thing."

"Before your neck gets crushed, repeat my binding method."

"Use it to crush the spiritual energy ball at my fingertips."

The words fell.

A bright light suddenly flashed on Arima Shizuya's index finger.

After chanting word by word, a broad halo with a creepy red glow appeared on Ichimaru Gin's neck.

Just like what Aizen did to himself back then.

Arima Shizuya did indeed act with the intention of "it doesn't matter if I kill him".

——Since it will be disadvantageous to our group anyway, why not strike first?
No.

——With my help, Aizen Sosuke’s ambition will definitely not stop at the level of the original work.

Therefore.

"If you want to take back what belongs to Rangiku, then do whatever it takes to survive."

Even mortals like ants can exert extraordinary power at the right time.

Arima Shizuka would not look down on anyone without reason, and the same was true for this future 'God of Gun'.

It would be meaningless if he didn't become stronger than the man in the original book.

Show your worth.

Only in this way will Arima Shizuya agree with his values and provide help in the literal sense.

"...!!!"

No words were spoken.

But the change in his expression alone was enough to explain the complexity of his heart at the moment.

Are you kidding me?
I haven't received any systematic training yet.

He doesn't even know how to use spiritual power, and has never even touched the so-called Zanpakuto!

Do you want a toddler who has just learned to walk to understand the meaning of running and jumping?
This is just a fantasy, something that is totally unimaginable.

but……

The words simply couldn't come out.

Because the scarlet halo has covered his neck.

It hasn't started to converge yet, but the icy spiritual energy is sticking to the skin, and the coldness and chill even makes Ichimaru Gin feel creepy.

dead.

There is only a thin line between you and yourself.

A strong desire to survive gushed out like a spring, and Gin Ichimaru's brain began to work rapidly.

What should I do? Is this the right thing to do?
How does spiritual power work? Chanting can help it take shape, so does that mean I have to use oral methods to help the energy take shape?

Or was this just a trick by the other party? He just wanted to watch me die in pain?
I can’t find it.

Like a survivor falling into the vast ocean, above the empty sea surface, Gin Ichimaru felt a strong sense of suffocation.

Is that all?
I?
Inhalation and exhalation were intertwined with each other, and in Arima Shizuya's eyes, he was watching the energy circle symbolizing "strike" slowly shrinking and gathering together.

There is an obvious dent on the neck.

Ichimaru Gin's expression began to turn painful.

The frozen breath will further compress the blood vessels. If the binding is not solved, the neck vertebra will be broken, until the whole head...

Unscrew them all together.

So, does that end your story?
Watching Ichimaru Gin's eyes begin to bulge out and his mouth open uncontrollably.

Arima Shizuka also seemed to be helpless and wanted to close her eyes.

At this moment, a crisp sound came from beside him - he glanced over calmly and saw that the ball of light on his fingertips shattered at this moment.

Behind the flying debris, there was red spiritual power that did not belong to Arima Shizuya.

As his thoughts froze, the bindings on Ichimaru Gin's neck also disappeared.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

After coughing awkwardly, Gin Ichimaru struggled to get up and showed a sarcastic smile at this moment.

"Ha, I did it..."

"Yes, Not Bad."

It must be said that the other party is indeed worthy of being the most trusted subordinate of the prison master.

Although it was only a low-level technique, even the mediocre graduates could use it.

But at present, it is enough to illustrate the value of the user... just as Gin Ichimaru said.

Standing on the line between life and death, he, a toddler, truly understood the essence of running and jumping.

Such talent is indeed commendable.

Then.

"Let me give you two more options."

Arima Shizuka also returned to her seat and sat down with a smile on her face.

"First, you should go back and study the contents of the Spiritual Arts Academy step by step."

"With a talent like you, I'm afraid you can completely learn all the content here in one year and become a rookie that everyone is paying attention to."

"But even so, you still can't get back everything you want."

The boy's eyes were as calm as water.

“Because I’m here.”

Gin Ichimaru wiped the dirt from the corner of his mouth, curled up his body slightly, and slowly stood up.

"Where's the second one."

"Come with me, I'll teach you everything."

Arima Shizuka also raised her right hand, held her chin, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Slash, punch, walk, ghost, I will teach you all the four major skills."

"The method of dealing with the enemy, the concept of self-preservation."

"I will teach you everything... without reservation. In exchange, you need to obey me."

of course.

"This behavior itself has no constraints, and in the future, I will not be able to take any punitive actions against you for your betrayal."
