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

Chapter 181: 180: Spiritual Communication Network

There is Ma Jingye’s swastika interpretation.

Its essence is to break down, strengthen, and distribute the eight abilities into unique capabilities.

Although there is a difference between strong and weak on the surface, it is still a relative comparison.

Considering that his eight abilities are enough to deal with a variety of situations, in most of the time, Arima Shizuya's single ability is already amazing enough.

And right now, this is exactly the situation.

Gandharva.

Among the Eight Immortals, Gandharva is also known as the "God of Incense".

He is a god who does not eat meat or wine and only seeks fragrance as nourishment. He serves Indra and is one of the music gods who is in charge of playing music and singing.

This seemingly professional term can also be explained from other perspectives.

In Sanskrit, its meaning symbolizes the unpredictable and strange nature.

Even the 'mirage' in the traditional sense can also be called Gandharva City.

Elusive and illusory.

This is the true meaning held by the Gandharvas.

And now, under Arima Shizuya's interpretation, his ability seems to have become extremely simple and clear.

"My spiritual power can be amplified and spread through the Bankai Gandharva method."

"Just like seasonal pollen, this dispersed spiritual energy can blend into the earth, the air, and even into the human body."

"Is it a little hard to understand? Well... Actually, the power you just felt is the ability of Gandharva."

Combine the abilities of others with your own in a sticky way.

In other words.

"Friendly units affected by my abilities will be able to perform these new ghost arts unconditionally."

Precisely because it is empty and ethereal, it can also be everywhere.

Derived from Arima Shizuya's ability to capture and analyze the surrounding environment, it has now evolved into this unique ability to transform into anything.

Shocked alone is not enough to describe one ten-thousandth of the emotion I felt at the moment.

After all, this kind of ability to merge with everything in the body is not new. In front of some experienced people, this thing also has corresponding weaknesses.

but……

This one by Arima Shizuya is a little different.

“It’s a little concerning…”

Kyoraku Shunsui frowned for a rare moment, he put down what he was holding, his eyes filled with a thoughtful gleam.

"Captain Arima, the following questions may be a little personal. Is that ok with your end?"

I don't know whether to say it's cunning or just inherently 'sinister'.

In this situation, Arima Shizuka could not refuse the other party's request no matter what.

What’s more, it is a legitimate demand.

"You may ask."

Kyoraku Shunsui pondered for a moment and spoke softly.

"Rather than being a new Kidō, this form of ability is more like an extension of Captain Arima's ability, right?"

This description may seem too general.

Kyoraku Shunsui also gave an explanation at the same time.

"Although this is just my wishful thinking at the moment, Captain Arima, please see if this is true..."

The decadent uncle raised his right hand and pointed his index finger in the air.

"Captain Arima used the power of his Zanpakutō to distribute his special abilities to others."

"As long as you are considered a companion by Captain Arima, or if you meet certain conditions, you will be recognized by the power of your Zanpakutō."

"Based on this, Captain Arima disassembled and shared his abilities... Is this my understanding?"

He is worthy of being a veteran captain.

He's a guy from the intelligence system.

Not only is the presentation very organized, but the content is also impeccable.

Kyoraku Shunsui almost completely analyzed Arima Shizuya's abilities, and in the face of this "questioning", the person involved did not have the slightest intention of hiding anything.

"As Captain Kyoraku said, theoretically speaking... that is indeed the case."

"Huh, so it's just some of your tricks."

Can make such a discordant sound.

You don't even need to turn your head to guess who is talking.

Captain of the Second Division, Soi Fong.

Even though forty years have passed, this guy still seems to be upset about the outcome of the fight that day.

Although she would not do irrational things like singing a different tune, she would never let go of opportunities like this to make sarcastic remarks...

He is the type who would want to step on Arima Shizuya as soon as he sees an opportunity.

At this moment, facing Soi-Fong's sarcasm, Arima Shizuka pondered for a moment, and finally just responded with a faint smile.

"Indeed, my abilities are currently quite limited... and that is why my abilities are limited to such a small extent."

The feeling of punching cotton must be unpleasant, but it is also obvious at this moment.

No one would care about this guy's feelings - Kurotsuchi Mayuri, who had been silent until now, noticed the subtle tone of Arima Shizuya's voice and raised his head slightly.

"scope?"

It was as if some key words were triggered...

“Yes, that’s the range.”

Arima Shizuya half-raised his right hand and made a loose grip gesture at this moment.

"The scope of Gandharva's abilities depends on the overall level of my spiritual pressure and my control over the environment."

The former is a hard condition, and the latter is the specific information that needs to be mastered in order to build a network-like system.

"Over the years, I have worked hard to adapt to the internal environment of the Soul Society. Today, I can cover about one-third of my abilities."

Although it may sound regrettable, from an individual perspective, being able to achieve this level is already quite exaggerated.

After all, this is literally trying to change the various rules within the Soul Society with one's own strength.

Now, after hearing Arima Shizuya's complaints, Kyoraku Shunsui couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

"No, no, no, this is already amazing, okay..."

anyway.

Although there was a similar ability before.

But that person was mainly targeting himself, absorbing energy from the outside world for his own use, thereby exerting extraordinary power.

"But Captain Arima's is different..."

“You are not the one who is asking for something, but the one who is supplying something.”

"If this thing can really be stabilized and fully implemented under the premise that conditions permit..."

no doubt.

This is definitely an exaggerated improvement in the overall combat capability of Seireitei.

"Hmm~ I already understand the general direction. But... I only have one last question left."

Adjusting the bamboo hat on his head, Kyoraku Shunsui's expression froze slightly, and he spoke in a serious tone.

"When others use the ghost arts designed by Captain Arima, the spiritual energy they use is provided by you?"

This is a very serious question. After all, even if he is a captain, it is absolutely impossible for him to provide unlimited Shinigami to the entire Soul Society to support others in releasing unlimited Kidō.

There must be some kind of constraints here.

Arima Jing also chuckled at this moment, but spoke in a light tone.

"Of course not... I'm not the kind of monster whose spiritual power is so exaggerated that I can squander it at will."

and so.

"I am just a link between them."

"It is used to connect the will of the Shinigami within the Seireitei, as well as the spirit particles floating in the air and around."

"If I have to describe it... well, I would rather call it a spirit particle communication network."

Pulling the spirit and the god of death, connecting the two together completely.

As the saying goes, a person lives up to his name…

Gandharvas are in charge of illusion, vagueness, and non-productive things.

In itself, it absolutely does not provide any spiritual power.

"It's a well-known fact."

"In the Soul Society we live in, most things are made up of spirit particles."

"So under the influence of my ability, everyone's ghost energy consumption will naturally be paid for by the surrounding environment."

"Of course, this will certainly cause some damage... so the extent of use and what kind of restrictions need to be made will require further confirmation and discussion in this regard."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi couldn't help but let out a soft "whoa".

He had no expression on his face and whispered like he was in a dream.

"You're actually taking the spirit particles around you for your own use? This behavior... is just like a Quincy."

indeed so.

After all, it is true that the God of Death can drive spirits and use these resources to fight against the enemies.

But in terms of control and proficiency in this area, they are obviously no match for the Quincy who specialize in these areas.

What they are good at is robbing and plundering. Just by hearing the name "Saint Slave" or something like that, you can basically understand the nature of the Quincy's behavior...

Even though the Grim Reaper is not good at this kind of behavior, it doesn't mean that he can't do it.

At least in the environment created by Arima Shizuka, the Grim Reaper can also temporarily act like a Quincy.

"I don't provide any spiritual power, but I allow both parties to connect... This is the most basic logic."

Arima Shizuka simply used her own abilities to build a virtual and hazy application environment in a relatively familiar environment.

That's it.

"Of course, if necessary, I can also turn myself into an output terminal and provide spiritual power output to the death gods within the range for a short period of time."

"But this won't last long. After all, my abilities are limited... I may not be able to hold on for more than a few minutes."

"Please forgive me for any shortcomings in this regard."

After hearing this, the one who responded at this moment was Aizen Sosuke.

The prison warden stood at the position of the third squad, with his hands folded across his chest, revealing his signature generous smile.

"Please don't underestimate yourself, Captain Arima. If your ability is really put on the agenda, it will definitely bring considerable help to the Seireitei."

The prison warden got off to a good start at this time.

Others also gave corresponding comments.

Captain of the Fourth Squad.

Unohana Retsu spoke in a rare thoughtful tone.

"If I could use this Kaido without restriction during the time Captain Arima's ability is activated..."

"Then it is very necessary to carry out relevant training within the Fourth Division."

"When necessary, this ability will surely save a lot of people."

The captain of the 7th Division, Komamura Sajin, agreed at this moment.

"Although public security has improved a lot recently, there are still some clumsy guys in the inner court guards..."

"If we can use simple and easy-to-use bindings, it will be a great help to our work."

"This is just my personal opinion. I completely agree with Captain Arima's proposal."

The bustling opinions continued to intertwine, and in the end.

Captain of the Eighth Squad.

Kyoraku Shunsui tried to make a concluding speech.

"Yeah~ It seems like everyone is quite interested in Captain Ma's research."

“It’s a good thing, but it’s new after all. It will take time to verify whether it’s stable or not.”

"So everyone needs to calm down a bit. It's not too late to say these things after the process is completed."

At the same time, Kyoraku Shunsui turned to Arima Shizuya who was not far away.

He said thoughtfully.

"Then let me briefly summarize, Captain Arima."

"Your ability can provide eight types of Kidōjutsu for immediate use within the Seireitei, and can be used multiple times if conditions permit."

"And to achieve this condition, corresponding preparations are needed... Uh, wait a minute, I have to look through the manual again."

After all, everything is written in it.

"Requirement one, Captain Arima needs to stay inside the Soul Society and keep his Bankai and Gandharva in a released state."

This is the basis for building a lepton communication network, so it is not surprising.

"Requirement 2: Captain Arima cannot be affected by the outside world while the ability lasts... He needs to maintain a relatively quiet environment."

The person concerned nodded slightly and smiled at this moment.

"That's right... Although it is indeed a familiar place, it is still quite time-consuming to construct the corresponding context."

If one wants to achieve the goal of assisting the entire Soul Society, this requirement is quite normal.

Kyoraku Shunsui nodded without hesitation.

In terms of cost alone, it can be said to be negligible.

After all, the Gotei has thirteen teams.

The fifth squad is doing the job, so the other twelve squads are not dead...

And so far, this is the full picture of Arima Shizuya's Bankai Gandharva.

Its capabilities, triggering conditions, the states that need to be maintained, etc., are all fully analyzed and presented at this moment.

Faced with the topic and plan proposed by the captain of the 5th Division, Kyoraku Shunsui couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"What are you talking about? It's insignificant..."

"It's outrageous to be able to do such a thing."

"Captain Arima, compared to your methods, all of us so-called captains seem so redundant."

A self-deprecating tone.

But it also revealed a bit of sincerity.

After all, that was exactly what Kyoraku Shunsui thought.

Possessing the ability to change the Soul Society... maybe even the entire Soul Society.

Not through one's own individual abilities, but by allowing others to learn to control powers that do not belong to them.

Arima Shizuya, where exactly is your limit?
