Chapter 35: The bow is the clothing of the snake.
In a world where black and white are mixed together, the blue halo that Arima Shizuya saw was the unique ability that spread from his Zanpakutō.

He saw four of himself.

It's like standing at a crossroads, unable to move forward...

Arima Shizuka also began to move towards the unknown.

The first one rushed forward straightly, using both hands to hold the opponent, trying to break through and attack the opponent head-on.

However, Gui Yancheng chopped him into two halves, including the man and the sword.

The second one chose to take a detour, but before he could launch an attack, Gui Yancheng grabbed his head and slammed it to the ground.

The third……

the fourth……

All attempts to make a frontal breakthrough ended in failure, and Arima Shizuka watched the blue light and shadow fade from dark to light until they disappeared.

I immediately made up my mind.

If you can't break through head-on, you can only adjust your strategy.

Snapped.

As if I had snapped my fingers in my heart, the familiar crossroads reappeared.

deduction.

This is the power of Arima Shizuya's Zanpakuto.

Obtain the information between yourself and the opponent, fix these known contents, and inject them into the Zanpakutō in the form of spiritual pressure, so that it can be fully interpreted and analyzed.

after that.

The maze named "Origami Castle" will be completely reconstructed and appear in Arima Shizuya's mind.

The crossroads symbolizes four different directions.

Through conscious control, Arima Shizuka can also clearly "foresee" the series of consequences that will follow if she performs such an action.

Being hacked to death, having your head crushed, having your body broken, having your eyeballs removed...

There are countless outcomes like this.

So it needs to be constantly 'remade'.

If you cannot break through head-on, you can only make detours, retreat, or passively defend.

Although it may sound complicated, it is actually not difficult to understand.

This can be completely understood as a 'game' of life and death.

Every crossroads is a groping search for vitality.

But if it is like now, everyone will be defeated.

Arima Shizuka could then give up this round of attempts, adjust her thinking, and make another attempt.

The first two times I escaped, it was by using this method that I found a glimmer of hope.

It is normal for Gui Yancheng to feel uncomfortable.

After all, speaking from a probability perspective, the probability is only a few thousand... no, even a few tens of thousands of one.

Taking four as the basis, Arima Shizuka has already carried out countless deductions in his mind.

So it doesn't matter if the actions are ugly or the means are dirty.

As long as there is a chance to escape, Arima Jing will go to this intersection without hesitation.

Like a mouse walking in a maze.

It's like walking on a Mobius strip with no end.

To use a bow as clothing is the nature of a snake.

That's right.

This is an Ouroboros with its head and tail connected, biting itself.

This is Arima Shizuya's true intention, and it is also the embodiment of his talent - turning the four basic skills into his own soul.

Turn the impossible into chaos.

Then use your own strength to try to unravel the mystery...

Find the line that turns the impossible into possible.

Theoretically, this ability will definitely find the "opportunity" to win. After all, probability is not an absolute thing. It is full of chaotic unknowns, which also means infinite possibilities...

It's like giving a computer to a monkey.

After countless, untold attempts, monkeys might even write a masterpiece called Hamlet.

But the truth is definitely not that simple.

Because Arima Shizuya's spiritual pressure is limited.

While the Zanpakuto was operating, all of Arima Shizuya's energy was gathered in the brain.

Just like an overclocked computer, this level of output made Arima Shizuka's consciousness uncontrollably confused at the moment.

Because it happened too many times.

Arima Jing repeated the attempt based on four hundreds of times in just a few seconds.

Resist, defend, dodge, or even beg for mercy...

Even with all these extreme measures, the answers that Arima Jing could find were ultimately limited.

The sense of oppression that Gui Yancheng gave him was not unusual, and it was a 'maze' built based on the opponent.

Now, after only taking two steps, Arima Jing felt tremendous pressure.

Perhaps after his own strength increases, Gongyi's ability will continue to be strengthened, and he will be able to deduce a more accurate future.

But for Arima Shizuya at this moment, this is all he can achieve.

——How long do we need to keep going before we see the end?
——How many more rounds of struggle do I have to endure before I can find the exit?

——There is no room to continue thinking about these things for the time being.

Because Arima Jing could see that the blue light emanating from her body was shattering and disappearing like glass.

Countless futures were denied.

At the same time, the light that was gradually filling up slowly returned to its original state in front of Arima Shizuya.

Not good… Once my vision is completely restored to normal, time will start flowing again.

before that.

Before starting the action in Guiyan City, he must find the so-called "way out".

Where is the next intersection, the next turning point? !

As their strength increased and their opponent's offensive became increasingly fierce, Arima Shizuya's condition also took a turn for the worse.

However, it is not time to give up yet.

Arima Shizuka also clenched her teeth and tensed her body at this moment, so much so that veins on her temples were visible to the naked eye.

puff……

A faint sound came from deep within my mind and began to echo softly.

What's going on?
Before she could investigate further, Arima Shizuka felt a warm touch coming from her nostrils.

Something dripped down wetly.

Looking down, he saw that it was his own nostrils that were oozing out scary blood.

Is this a physiological reaction caused by the brain overworking? This behavior itself is a warning, the remnant of the body's wail.

But at the same time, Arima Shizuka had to maintain this state.

After all, it's a one-to-one choice between success and death.

Now all I can do is to try my best.

He took a deep breath and clenched the Zanpakutō in his hand tightly.

Arima Shizuka also unleashed all her spiritual pressure without reservation...

Countless, even completely indistinguishable, azure turbulence began to surge wildly.

come on.

It was the opponent who pushed his physical strength and life to the limit, allowing his snake-like body to completely trap Arima Shizuya.

Or was it that I was the first to find the right breakthrough point, the exit from this endless cycle, and was able to break through?
After the chaos, everything will become crystal clear.

PS: The ability of this sword is designed to be connected with the later Bankai, so there will be many limitations, please forgive me (after all, it is only the Shikai)
