Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

Shi Tan's face was gloomy. He always looked like this, full of bitterness and resentment, with many and complicated thoughts.

When Nada saw that Araki, Shunsui, and Ukitake had all left the classroom, he thought for a moment, then used Shunpo to catch up with them...

"Ha ha……"

Araki looked at the three people behind him and smiled gently.

To reform Soul Society, the first thing that cannot be bypassed is not the 'Central 46 Chambers', but the noble group led by the 'Five Great Nobles'...

Completely destroying the Five Noble Families is unrealistic; after all, their lineage spans over a million years, longer than the history of Soul Society itself. Who knows what kind of hidden tricks they might have up their sleeves? Therefore, Araki decided to firmly control the power of the Five Noble Families within his own hands…

The Shihouin family will be managed by his apprentice, Sayo. The Kuchiki family, as moral exemplars, will strictly adhere to their own established 'laws,' so there's no need to interfere! As for the family connected to Hell, they have no interest in the reforms of the 'Soul Society'…

Even if Araki doesn't interfere, the Shiba family will gradually decline; this is their predetermined 'fate'! As for Ichigo Kurosaki, the protagonist of *Bleach*, although he has Shiba blood, he clearly has no interest in becoming the head of the Shiba family…

Next up is the Tsunayoshiro family, the most ambitious of the five noble families, and also the mastermind behind many incidents in the Soul Society. Araki decides to put this evil brat, who is disliked by the main family and wants to seek the truth, under his control...

In the original work, Tsunayoshi Tokina is definitely not a good person. He seems to be involved in many tragedies. But it doesn't matter. Right now, Tsunayoshi Tokina is just a cocky brat. He can teach him a lesson.

Of course, Araki didn't intend to change Tsunayoshi Tokinada's nature or anything like that. Changing something like that is unrealistic. Araki only needed Tsunayoshi Tokinada to fear him. As long as Araki was still in Soul Society, it was enough that Tokinada wouldn't dare to cause trouble.

As he thought this, Araki, along with the three behind him, arrived at the Eleventh Division's barracks...

The squadron barracks are still under construction, but most of them are already completed. Thanks to the skillful hands of the Shihouin family's artisans, the entire Eleventh Division has been completely transformed...

Neither the luxurious 'artificial garden' nor the 'fountain' and 'swimming pool' seem like things a squad should have; they're more like facilities found in an entertainment club.

"Captain Araki!"

When the Eleventh Division soldiers guarding the gate saw Araki, they immediately bowed respectfully and greeted him.

"I'm going to use the swordsmanship dojo now. Have the members inside go outside and run laps."

Araki gave orders to the guards in front of him.

"As ordered!"

Without saying a word, the soldier immediately ran into the barracks.

Before long, the members of the Eleventh Division, led by the seated officer, ran towards the outside of Seireitei...

Yes, when Araki refers to running laps outside, he means running around the entire Seireitei.

"You three, come with me!"

Immediately afterwards, Araki, along with Shunsui and the other two, pushed open the door to the Eleventh Division's swordsmanship dojo.

"This is?!"

When Chunshui and Fuzhu saw the spacious dojo, their eyes lit up instantly.

Even Tokito nodded repeatedly as he looked at the dojo. To be honest, he was used to the extravagant scenes outside the Eleventh Division! The Tsunayo family wasn't much wealthier than the Shihouin family...

Compared to the 'fountain' and such, he was more interested in the enormous training ground before him. Although the 'Tsunayoshiro' family was prosperous, there was not much need for such a large training ground...

"Araki-sensei, are you sure it's okay for you to bring us here?!"

Shunsui has always been very curious. Ever since he joined the Eleventh Division, he hasn't wanted to go back to school. But today he was unusually well-behaved and asked Araki a question.

"What, you want to go back to school?"

Araki looked at Shunsui and asked.

"Not at all!"

Chunshui answered without hesitation.

"Then what are you asking?"

As he spoke, Araki gently tapped Shunsui's head with the scabbard of his sword.

"Hey hey hey..."

Chunshui touched the back of his head where Araki had hit him and smiled foolishly.

"Where are you two?"

At this moment, Araki looked at Ukitake and Tokinabe beside him.

"I'll follow the teacher's instructions!"

Ukitake's answer perfectly matched Araki's thoughts.

"You're the one who sent us. If anyone holds us responsible, it's none of our business."

Shi Tan's answer was very unpleasant.

"It doesn't matter, there's no one in the entire Seireitei who can hold me accountable."

As Araki spoke, he picked up the scabbard in his hand and slammed it hard on Shitan's head.

"it hurts……"

Shi Tan touched his swollen forehead and tears welled up in his eyes.

"How dare you boast! Even if you are the captain of the Gotei 13, you have no power to resist true authority!"

Shi Tan glared at Araki and spoke angrily. For a moment, Araki couldn't tell if Shi Tan was doing it on purpose or if it was just the child saying something in anger! After all, this kid had been scheming and calculating since childhood; his words, and even his expressions, didn't always carry weight.

"True rights? What are true rights...?"

Araki wanted to hear what true power meant in Shitan's eyes.

"This corrupt world lacks everything, except power! We, like Tsunayoshi, are the heads of the five great noble families, members of the Golden Seal Noble Council, members of the Noble Council, and so on!"

"As the captain of the Gotei 13, you are indeed a powerful figure, but you can't reach the pinnacle of power. For you, the 'Central 46' is an insurmountable mountain!"

Seemingly having touched on a topic that Shi Tan was interested in, he crossed his arms in front of him and looked at Araki, speaking eloquently.

"Crack~"

In response, Araki brandished his scabbard and struck Tokina on the head again.

"it hurts……"

Shi Tan covered his head, glaring angrily at Araki, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"The members of the 'Forty-Six Chambers' and the 'Noble Council' are all terrified of me!"

Araki looked at Toki, whose face was full of defiance, and said with a smile.

"Liar."

Shi Tan clearly did not believe what Araki said.

"Haha~"

Araki simply smiled after hearing Shitan's words.

“Go back and ask your father; he will tell you the answer.”

Araki looked at Shi Tan and smiled.

"Who gave you this confidence?!"

Young Shitan didn't understand; he couldn't comprehend why Araki was so open and honest.

"strength!"

Araki thought for a moment and gave Tokina his reasons.

"strength?"

Shi Tan was stunned for a moment; clearly, Araki's answer was beyond his comprehension.

"When you become powerful enough to eliminate all the rule-makers and those who want to impose those rules on you, the rules become meaningless to you."

Araki looked at Shitan and spoke calmly.

After Araki finished speaking, he tossed six wooden swords from the shelf to Shunsui, Ukitake, and Tokina.

"This is?!"

Chunshui and the others were taken aback; they didn't understand why they were being given six swords.

"Two swords for each of you! Today I'll teach you how to use dual swords."

Before Chunshui and the others could think further, Araki's words rang in their ears.

"Um?!"

Even though Chunshui and the other two were still very confused, they still picked up the wooden sword that Huangmu had thrown to them.

"Then let the game begin!"

Araki then struck a 'dual-wielding' pose.

"Look to your left!"

As Araki finished speaking, he appeared on the left side of the three like a gentle breeze. Then, with the two wooden swords crossed together and the spiritual pressure gathered, he unleashed a cross-shaped slash at everyone.

"boom!!"

As expected, the three of them were sent flying by Araki.

"How can you block this thing?!"

At this moment, Kyoraku Shunsui was dumbfounded. How could they possibly stop such a strike that directly condensed spiritual pressure and then unleashed it?!

"Yes, so how exactly should we block it? Why not try imitating my movements and unleashing a slash?"

As Araki spoke, his next slash was already aimed at the group.

"If only we could do that!"

Upon hearing this, Kyoraku covered his head and ran away, shouting at Araki.

"Then don't blame me! You can only blame your incompetence."

As he spoke, Araki unleashed several more slashes at Kyoraku.

"If you want to learn how to fight, learn how to get beaten up first!"

Araki looked at the trio he had beaten and rolled on the ground, and spoke calmly.

Sunset……

"It hurts, it hurts so much, damn it..."
