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

Chapter 240 239: Second Battle
There have only been two people throughout history who have been able to stand on the summit of death.

one of them.

Aizen Sosuke once made violent remarks.

The battle between the Shinigami is a battle between spiritual pressure.

In other words...strength at the soul level creates an impeccable attack and defense.

The elephants cannot be hurt by the hounds, but they can easily crush their opponents with every move.

From a theoretical point of view, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this statement.

And the other one.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni held a different opinion.

The battle between the gods of death...

"It's a life-and-death struggle after using all your strength."

Cut, punch, walk, ghost.

The four major categories all have traces of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's participation, design, and research.

Therefore.

The old man's battle has a sense of elegance that is completely different from his appearance.

The power of the Zanpakuto cannot be used.

That is to adjust the strategy as quickly as possible... and use other means of attack.

It's useless.

Although his attack failed, the old man in the mountain did not restrain himself.

Instead, he took half a step closer and smashed his left hand down heavily from top to bottom!
This is a double bone.

call……

Amid the echoing sound of tearing wind and cracking bones, Arima Shizuka also responded hastily and was immediately knocked flying.

No respite should be given.

The figure of the old man on the mountain was like a bright rocket. At this moment, he began to flash and rush forward, rushing into the air with the speed of being the first to arrive.

Shunpo!

It's even a very advanced technique.

The killer with a ghostly face rushed forward again, and with a powerful whip-kick, he headed straight for Arima Shizuya's face!

Such momentum and power.

If the fight is successful, it will be up to the commander to decide whether he will survive or not.

Arima Shizuka also tilted his head to block the blow...hit right in the middle of his forearm, and his entire expression became one of extreme pain.

"Gu..."

"Is this the only thing I have taught you?"

Before they could respond, the attack started again.

Spin around and punch!
The attack was aimed straight at his jaw, but Arima Shizuya gritted his teeth and dodged it by turning sideways.

Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent's old strength had just gone and new strength had not yet been generated, Arima Jing also took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

The switch between offense and defense only takes a split second, and this is the time when...

Before my thoughts could come to a halt, the old man's cold snort reached my ears.

"Little tricks."

He grabbed Arima Shizuya's arm. Although he looked skinny, the strength he unleashed made it impossible for him to break free.

Being close to the body.

But it's not to the point where there is nothing that can be done.

"The Eighty-eighth Breakthrough..."

"Ninety-sixth of the Broken Path..."

The two voices almost overlapped, which also meant that the strategic intentions of both sides were quite obvious.

Get close, and then use the unavoidable ghost technique to further suppress the opponent!

It’s just that the number used by the old man in the mountain was so exaggerated that the former couldn’t help but reveal a rather surprised expression.

The moment when my thoughts were misplaced, I didn't wait to speak.

Crack...pop!

The process of chanting is omitted.

Just as the words fell, the old man's body revealed a black and red background color.

Like a burning piece of charcoal, it contained a terrifying temperature, accompanied by the movement of breathing...

At this moment, a milky white turbulence gushed out.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, with a serious face, looked calmly at his former disciple in front of him and said in a sonorous voice.

"Cremation with one knife."

Between Arima Shizuya's suddenly contracted pupils, the figures of the two were completely engulfed by the bright red flames that shot up into the sky.

Like a sharp knife standing still, such powerful and terrifying spiritual power has burned everything around it to ashes.

A series of dazzling offensive and defensive battles.

In the eyes of some team members, it was completely impossible to capture its movements and direction.

The big dog with an iron bucket on his head even spoke uneasily.

"Now, is it... an even split?"

Only a few decent people can get a glimpse of the essence at this time.

"Ahem, ahem... No. It's the teacher who has the upper hand."

Ukitake Jushiro's tone was a little subtle, and even Kyoraku Shunsui beside him had a solemn expression on his face.

The expressions of the two were so difficult to understand that even Soi-Fong beside them couldn't help but speak.

"Since you both have the upper hand, why do you still have such expressions?"

Yes.

why?

Kyoraku Shunsui pursed his lips slightly, as if hesitating for a while, and then he sighed softly.

"Because it was too unexpected."

A simple and clear reason.

"Arima Shizuya's age... shouldn't be even a hundred years old, right?"

What are the results of other guys of the same age now?
You have to know that Soi Fong, who is of the same age as her, was unable to put up any resistance at this moment and became a complete spectator.

The rising star who is even said to have unique talent and has attracted much attention, Hitsugaya Toshiro.

There is absolutely no way that the opponent can withstand this level of attack.

Already, he is a person of a completely different level... Arima Shizuka has also reached the peak of being a strong man with his own strength.

"Given time, even if Arima Shizuka wants to become the captain, it won't be a fantasy, right?"

"When I think about it this way, I can't help but feel sad. After all..."

"With this level of talent, he can only be our enemy or something."

In time, the other party's achievements will definitely be far more than just a captain.

It's a pity.

It feels scary again.

Some people feel emotional, while naturally some people feel disdainful.

Having completely recovered her composure, Soi Fong stood up and turned her gaze towards the figure further away.

"Since I can't help, I have to at least stop these bastards here..."

Just as she stood up, Kyoraku Shunsui, who was not far away, reached out and stopped her in her tracks.

"It's better not to act rashly."

The captain of the second squad couldn't understand this behavior at all, so he stepped back and threw his hands away.

The face of such a petite person is surprisingly resolute.

"Why?!"

Kyoraku Shunsui didn't seem offended at all and just said it calmly.

"Of course it's because of Aizen Sosuke, this guy's troublesome ability."

Flowers in the mirror and moon in the water.

I can't be sure when I was deceived, and I can't be sure when I got out of the illusion.

Without fully understanding the other party's capabilities, such rash actions...will most likely lead to consequences that one will regret later.

"You don't want to stab your Zanpakutō into the bodies of your other companions, do you?"

Just stating this fact.

Soi-Fong's expression flickered pale blue for a while, and finally she silently retreated back to her original position.

The tragic scene in Ōmaeda is still fresh in our minds.

If she were to experience it herself... Soi-Fong wasn't sure if she could remain calm.

"So are we just going to just stand there and watch?" Komamura Sajin's voice was hoarse, and he clenched his Zanpakutō in his right hand.

Kyoraku Shunsui was also feeling quite depressed, and was obviously helpless and unwilling to accept the current situation.

"There is no other way... After all, the so-called intelligence war is itself part of the confrontation between the two sides."

Although the person who said this may not have intended this.

But the fact is - this sentence runs through the entire plot of Bleach, and almost summarizes all the current battle situations.

This is the battle of betrayal at this moment.

This is what the future battle of Karakura Town will look like.

Even in the more distant future... the chapter of a thousand years of bloody war is the same.

The advantage of hiding in the dark is that you can attack the enemy when they are unprepared and hurt their vital points.

Aizen has been lurking for many years, and it is impossible for him to attack suddenly when he is not sure of his chance.

Therefore.

"Although it may sound frustrating, for us... there is no other solution for the time being except to wait and see."

Reluctance, humiliation, anger...

All kinds of emotions rolled and brewed in their chests, but they did not make these captains lose their most basic rationality.

Gin Ichimaru, who was not far away, looked at the people behind him and couldn't help but sigh.

“No one really moved.”

Tosen remained silent, only Aizen showed an extremely indifferent smile.

"Nothing to be surprised about, Silver."

People will have awe of the unknown.

They will be more cautious about things they only have a vague understanding of.

"Between hesitation and indecision, the best opportunity is missed."

"It was not until everything was settled that I suddenly realized..."

"So-called human beings are just like this. Although they can summarize, they are not used to learning from experience and lessons."

The so-called disguise has been torn off.

Aizen looked down at the people not far away, but only for a moment before he shifted his gaze to the side.

There is no need to pay any more attention to them, because the existence of these people...is no longer a threat at all.

The focus is still on the two parties who are confronting each other under their feet.

"want……"

"I'm here, my lord."

"The data we need to obtain is almost complete. Don't waste the time Shizuya-kun has bought. Go and bring that person over."

"I know."

Tosen was about to leave the spot, Ichimaru Gin and Aizen stood side by side, looking down...

Until I frowned unconsciously.

"What do you think, Silver?"

Although the sudden question was surprising, it was not to the point of leaving me speechless.

After a moment's silence, Ichimaru Gin responded.

"Sure enough...very strong."

There is no doubt about Arima Shizuya's ability.

The experience of learning under him made Ichimaru Gin even more convinced of the other party's high level.

But even so.

At this moment it seems...the opponent is still no match for Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

"indeed so."

Aizen's eyes flickered, then he pursed his lips and couldn't help but sigh softly.

There is also a gap between the first-class spiritual powers.

As a veteran and powerful person, he is also a top figure in Soul Society.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's level has already reached the ceiling called the limit.

Although Arima Shizuya is equally powerful at this moment... he has just passed the threshold and is able to compete with the opponent.

——Before leaving, take the initiative to provoke the other party and try to fight with Yamamoto.

Although this is also a reflection of the will of the person involved, it seems a bit "reckless" at this moment.

After all, the gap in strength between the two sides is visible to the naked eye.

Even more...

Before Aizen's thoughts could settle.

A disheveled figure rushed out from the raging fire.

The opponent's body was surrounded by raging flames, but he extinguished the flames by rolling on the ground twice.

Then stand up.

Arima Shizuya's slightly embarrassed yet slightly panting posture caught everyone's attention.

His right arm drooped weakly, and because there was a big cut at the corner of his eyebrow on his right face, his left eye could only be slightly closed at this moment.

By comparison.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who walked out slowly from the firelight, seemed much more calm.

Of course, this does not mean that the other party is unharmed.

On the left hand, the little finger has been severely charred and has fallen off.

It was drifting in the wind, turning into bits and pieces of debris, and disappearing...

at the same time.

There was a small dent on his chest, which was the mark left by Ma Jing during the fight just now.

Not only was she beaten and ravaged unilaterally... Arima Shizuka also put up her own resistance.

However, even so, it does not seem to be enough to affect Yamamoto's combat effectiveness.

With a flick of the blade in his hand, he put out the flames that were encircling the mountain. The captain approached step by step, his eyes seemed to be real... deep and solemn.

She pursed her lips and placed her left hand on her right shoulder.

The five fingers suddenly exerted force, and the power that emerged straightened the dislocated bones and muscles, and at this moment, a pain that was enough to make people sweat profusely broke out.

After dealing with these things, Arima Jing wiped the cold sweat from her face.
"It's a headache. I thought I could deal with you, old man."

"With your ability, it's far from enough."

Just as the other party said.

The old man in the mountain judged the situation much better than himself.

While thinking, Arima Shizuya glanced at the other person, and the look of emotion in his eyes became three times stronger.

Cremation with a knife...

The reason why it is listed as a forbidden technique is because it will backfire on the user, so it is not taught.

This not only means that this ghost technique is powerful, but also means that it requires a price.

"Having said that, not being able to absorb the flames from other systems in time is indeed a headache..."

After releasing Garuda's ability, Arima Shizuka can also absorb the flames of Ryujin Jakka.

But it was impossible to deal with the old man's fierce attack and at the same time spare the attention to deal with the other part of the "fire".

Terrifying combat instinct.

He is able to analyze the current situation in almost an instant and gain the upper hand in an instant by acting decisively and risk-takingly.

and so.

Is this the horror of the Millennium War Ghost?

It's really awesome.

Even though he was mentally prepared and used Garuda's abilities, he was able to barely make up the gap between the two sides.

But now it seems that wanting to be 'compared' with it is just wishful thinking.

Therefore.

"Let's call it a day, Master Shan."

because.

"The next period of time will not be a simple contest."

Zanpakuto, release.

Losing the protection of Garuda means that Arima Shizuka will also be directly attacked by Ryujin Jakka.

So what kind of confidence did he have to do such a thing?
As everyone watched, Arima Shizuya smiled and raised his Zanpakutō above his head until he murmured another name.

"Bankai, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devas, Gandharvas."

come on.

This is the second battle.
