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

Chapter 350, Page 359: One-Sided Slaughter
Just ask.

What is the essence of the chaotic and unpredictable creation of the Heavenly Puppet?
It is by using the power of spiritual particles to violently alter their properties, thereby turning them into an extension that can control the body.

And based on this answer.

The so-called chaotic use of celestial puppets is mostly a 'last resort' used in emergency situations.

A typical example is probably Uryu Ishida when he first came to Soul Society, and the use of Cheruze in the original work to stop Ichigo Kurosaki.

Although it is very difficult.

However, for some exceptionally gifted Quincy, it is not too difficult.

but……

This is different.

Yhwach's gaze was fixed intently on Arima Shizuya at that moment.

'The ability to manipulate spirit particles is the very foundation upon which Quincy survive.'

'It's not difficult to control them like an extension of one's own arm, but the problem is to make them completely obedient, or even to change their nature...'

This is no longer an experiment.

Rather, it's a kind of predetermined behavioral logic.

In other words... it seems that Arima Shizuya's use and understanding of spirit particles were already ahead of Yhwach's.
I cannot accept this outcome.

Call it pride or not, at this moment, the Quincy progenitor's gaze focused, and with an almost scrutinizing attitude, he began to quickly analyze the behavior and logic of the spirit particle manipulation.

soon.

He then showed a relieved expression.

I see……

"Is it simply a matter of gathering spiritual particles and simulating them in a clumping manner, then stimulating them at the same frequency to temporarily function as a heart?"

have to say.

In terms of technique and approach alone, it is absolutely imaginative.

But it's a pity...

You are facing a man named Yhwach.

"How long can you maintain this level of precision control during combat?"

With one step, Yhwach's body shot forward like an arrow, crashing into the target!
At this moment, Shizuya Arima's movements also seemed to slow down inexplicably.

Before he could react, he was hit by Yhwach and fell to the ground uncontrollably.

"Look!"

"In order to maintain the activity and state of your spiritual particles, you simply cannot spare any extra thoughts to control your body!"

"That's why the Chaotic Puppet can't be controlled with greater precision... After all, it's not the original physical body. Do you think it can play any decisive role?!"

Even more.

Yhwach also had a more straightforward way of breaking this tactic.

He grinned maliciously and stretched out his right hand, grabbing Arima Shizuya's forearm, which he was using for defense.

"It's nothing dangerous, just some gifts from me as a father."

The blood-boiling potion began to boil.

The crimson spirit particles symbolizing Yhwach surged along his arm towards Arima Shizuya.

The latter seems to have realized the problem and wants to get rid of it...

But it was 'too late'.

"See? Once my spiritual particles come into contact with your body, your originally stable form will tend to collapse."

"It's like how the body reacts negatively to different blood types."

"The more complex the form, the more easily it is affected, and eventually it tends to collapse."

As Arima Shizuya's heart began to pound and tremble irregularly, it was clear that, just as Yhwach had described, his body's internal circulation had been affected.

A smile appeared on Yhwach's face, revealing the triumphant look of a victor.

That's all for now, Shizuka Arima.

Thoughts only linger for a fleeting moment in this instant.

Yhwach's expression froze.

Because of the close proximity, he felt a distinct sense of unease almost instantly.

At this moment, another power within Arima Shizuya was boiling.

Gulu gulu...

As a faint echo resounded, the spiritual particles emanating from Yhwach were completely intercepted, as if they had encountered a blocking force, and were even forced back inch by inch.

What is it?
Visible to the naked eye.

A jet-black outline appeared outside the spirit lines, forming an eerie blue-black silhouette.

The situation has stabilized.

At that moment, Shizuka Arima also opened her eyes.

The fusion of powers is not a simple form. If it is merely a matter of 1+1=2, then all of Shizuka Arima's efforts so far have been completely meaningless.

The person involved had already considered similar ideas before even starting the plan.

What is the significance of merging forces?
Is it simply to become a transcendent being and master a completely new realm?

That was Aizen Sousuke's pursuit, not Arima Shizuya's lifelong goal.

In the long process of experimentation and verification, Shizuka Arima quickly found her own answer.

That is...

Learn from each other's strengths and make up for each other's weaknesses.

Using the power of the Quincy, to stabilize and strengthen the internal condition of the body.

The defining characteristic of spirit particles is their exceptional malleability, a trait that Quincy have masterfully utilized...

For example, the technique of 'randomly assembling a celestial puppet' currently being used.

However, Shizuka Arima also believes that there is still the potential to advance further beyond that.

Create organs, fill gaps, and complete the deficiencies of life!

Admittedly, there are similar problems to those discovered by Yhwach... such as an unstable state and difficulty in ensuring one's actions are normal during action.

but.

If the power can be fused, then this problem will not exist at all.

The power of the void begins to manifest at this moment.

A highly aggressive and volatile soul is inherently resistant to calm spiritual particles, but under the control of the same consciousness, the two can form an unexpected cooperative relationship.

The inner layer is reinforced with spiritual particles.

The outer layer delivers the power of the void to fight the enemy.

Ma Jingye's silence just now was not because she had nothing to say, but simply because she was searching for balance and a point within her body.

Fortunately.

He has already thoroughly comprehended the body.

Arima Shizuka also regained her mobility in a completely different manner.

Pupils slightly constricted.

He glanced at the disheveled founder of the Quincy before him, his lips trembling as he slightly raised them.

"Is that all? Yhwach."

"you……"

The words have not yet fallen.

Shizuka Arima grabbed his arm and delivered a beautiful whip kick.

The ethereal body's strength was far beyond what it used to be; almost instantly upon impact, Yhwach's blood armor was completely shattered.

The clash between bodies was decided in the blink of an eye.

As Yhwach cried out in pain, his already distorted face became even more wretched.

Snapped!
"what!!!"

The kneecap bent to a degree visible to the naked eye.

Yhwach's scream was swallowed back down the moment it left his mouth.

Because Ma Jing followed up with a flying kick, which landed squarely on his chin.

Even more...

At this moment, a layer of boiling-like airflow appeared on the body that had already partially become ethereal.

This is something that Quincy would be very familiar with.

Bloodstained armor!
These two forces, which should be completely incompatible, are now fully embodied in Arima Shizuya.

Its power and influence were incomparable to what they had been before.

With a viscous echo that sent chills down one's spine, Yhwach's body soared into the air.

But is that all?

That's far from enough. Ma Jing also half-squatted down and charged forward with a roar.

too long.

I have paid too high a price for this moment.

He was misunderstood and misunderstood. He even did things he didn't want to do, experienced death, and still suffers from fragmented memories...

Everything.

It's all because of the man in front of her.

Angry? Resentful? Of course I am!!!

Just because the world doesn't work the way you want it, you want to destroy it completely?

"Who gave you permission to do this?!"

A punch landed squarely on Yhwach's face, shattering and knocking out his teeth.

"Who gave you the right to act so recklessly?!"

Arima Shizuya's body twisted in the air, his slender dragon tail stabilizing his posture, allowing him to maintain his balance while accumulating power.

Then...

Arima Shizuya swung his right leg down and slammed it into Yhwach's chest.

"who do you think You Are!"

boom! ! !
Like a comet hitting the Earth.

Yhwach, who was completely unable to resist, was hit squarely.

The force instantly seeped into the body... It continuously brewed, swirled, and converged! Finally, it exploded with a thud at the back.

puff!
Blood and flesh splattered out, appearing as a messy, fragmented mess.

At the same time, the spine also becomes uncontrollably dislocated...until it breaks.

His body plummeted rapidly, and Shizuka followed without hesitation.

Like a shark that has caught the scent of blood and chooses to relentlessly pursue it...

The two figures were swallowed up by the ruins of what is known as the Soul Society.

Arima Shizuka continued to swing his fists as if whipping a corpse. He had even forgotten his original intention and now only wanted to vent his anger.

The unspoken bitterness and long-held resentment were all unleashed at this moment.

"what!!!"

The roaring voice was almost hoarse at this moment.

It has no meaning whatsoever; it's merely an instinctive outburst.

This was absolutely a one-sided massacre!

But for some reason... Shizuka Arima also felt her eyes getting slightly hot.

What was this emotion welling up from his heart? Lacking memories, he couldn't find the answer, and at this moment he only hesitated for a moment before ceasing to pay attention.

How long did it last?

Not sure.

Even Ma Jingye's hands had become numb and she had lost the ability to feel anything.

Arima Shizuka, who had just come to her senses, also stopped what she was doing.

He began to look around... and what came into view was a group of death gods surrounding the ruins.

They looked in this direction with solemn expressions, their eyes filled with extremely complex emotions.

With the memories of Hollows and Quincy, Arima Shizuya was able to understand the identities of these people.

But... he didn't know why these people's expressions were so strange.

At that moment, a calm voice came from behind him.

"Was that enough to vent your anger?"

Turn around.

What came into view was a man dressed in a rather strange manner.

His entire body was bound by restraint bandages, with only one eye and mouth visible, yet he still exuded a sense of ease and composure.

this person……

He was no stranger to him.

It is Aizen Sousuke.

Arima Shizuka watched as the other person slowly walked forward until they stood completely beside him.

"Since we've been misunderstood for so long, it's natural to feel some emotion now that we've finally achieved our goal."

"It's alright, emotional release is an essential part... Simply enduring it is meaningless."

"After all, acknowledging shortcomings is also a form of progress."

Arima Shizuka also stood up silently.

Although he didn't have many memories of Aizen Sousuke, he could sense the goodwill emanating from him.

In addition, there was the help they received in the Avici Hell.

"Thank you..."

"...Oh, thank you?"

A slightly bitter smile appeared on Aizen Sousuke's lips, and a hint of melancholy crept into his eyes.

If it were that man from before, perhaps he wouldn't have said such blunt things.

He shook his head slightly, no longer focusing on these 'minor details'.

Aizen Sousuke simply fixed his gaze on the ground...

On a pile of rotten flesh.

Yes, it's hard to call this person human anymore.

After being violently ravaged, shattered, and even subjected to a series of venting attacks by Shizuya Arima, Yhwach had completely lost his 'human' form.

Amidst the pile of minced meat, apart from the shape of bones, there were no other 'features'.

A soft thud...

It was the echo of Ma Jing beside him, whose knees went weak and she collapsed to her knees.

His semi-ethereal armor transformed into a thin film, which then drifted away in the wind.

The once clear vision suddenly became muddled – the aftereffect of the concentrated burst of power was a strong feeling of suffocation.

At the same time, an even more fatal problem also emerged.

The heart that had been woven into shape on his chest was now showing signs of disintegration and collapse.

"..."

Aizen Sousuke helped him up.

At the same time, the crowd that had been watching from the sidelines also reacted.

The rescue squad, led by Retsu Unohana, rushed forward.

"Adrenaline and backup blood banks are ready?"

"We must race against time...we cannot afford to relax even for a moment."

"Yone, you can step down if you're not comfortable."

The person whose name was called shook his head decisively, his gaze remaining unchanged.

After handing Arima Shizuka to the rescue team, Aizen Sousuke turned his gaze and swept it towards the distance.

That was where Yamamoto and Kyoraku Shunsui stood.

"So, what should we do now?"

The voice just fell.

There was no response from the crowd.

A hazy black gas appeared above Yhwach's 'corpse'.

"...?"

Aizen Sousuke raised an eyebrow slightly, and the torrent of spiritual particles moved at his will, surging towards the shadows without hesitation.

However, these shadows moved faster than the prison guards.

In the blink of an eye, it completely disintegrated and disappeared with all the debris.

"This is……"

Aizen Sousuke frowned slightly and pondered for a moment.

escaped?
That doesn't make sense...

Yhwach has completely lost his will to live; this is the conclusion I reached after observing him up close.

Why would something like this still happen at this moment?

Recalling the thin black mist that had just appeared, a conjecture surfaced in Aizen Sousuke's mind.

The Invisible Empire...
