Bleach: Getting Stronger Starting from Teaching at the Spiritual Arts Academy.

"Captain!" Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly had an idea and pointed at Ishida Ryugen, "I'm guiding the souls of the dead from the mortal world to Soul Society."

Ichigo Kurosaki planned to get away with it.

"Heh...you look unfamiliar, but you seem quite capable!" Kenpachi Zaraki didn't seem to care about Ichigo Kurosaki's excuse. He revealed a sinister smile. "Come and fight me!"

"what?"

Captain Shinigami's response was beyond Ichigo Kurosaki's expectations. He didn't react for a moment, but he didn't have time to think about anything else because Captain Shinigami had already charged forward with his sword.

Kurosaki Ichigo had no choice but to draw his sword and fight.

The shape of the Zanpakuto changed drastically, becoming a large sword without a handguard.

During the few days he trained at the underground training ground of the Urahara Store, he successfully mastered the Shikai.

The broad blade blocked the incoming attack.

clang--

Ryūgen Ishida wanted to help, but was stopped by a little girl with pink hair.

"Get out of the way!"

"Don't disturb Ah Jian's battle~"

When Ichigo Kurosaki saw that Kenpachi Zaraki's sword looked tattered and had many nicks on the blade, he gripped the hilt tightly, intending to press down on it and break it. However, the broken blade was exceptionally sturdy and firmly held off Ichigo Kurosaki's Zanpakuto.

Ichigo Kurosaki's resistance only excited Kenpachi Zaraki even more, causing his spiritual pressure to surge wildly.

The spiritual pressure forced Ichigo Kurosaki back several steps.

"This spiritual pressure is even stronger than the Shinigami I encountered a few days ago!" Kurosaki Ichigo dared not be careless and gathered his spiritual pressure on the blade, "Getsuga Tenshou!"

A golden crescent moon shot out from the blade and slashed rapidly toward Kenpachi Zaraki.

After several days of training, his spiritual pressure slash transformed into the even more powerful Crescent Moon Slash.

However, to Ichigo Kurosaki's surprise, Kenpachi Zaraki also unleashed a blue streak of light, blocking the golden crescent moon.

"Hahaha! This move looks familiar!"

Kenpachi Zaraki burst into wild laughter, wielding his Zanpakuto. The blue streak of light collided with the incoming golden crescent moon.

"boom--!!!"

The crescent moon exploded with a deafening roar, instantly obliterating the paved road and even knocking down a large section of the nearby forest.

"Cough-cough-"

After the dust settled, Ichigo Kurosaki was kneeling on the ground, barely managing to stay upright thanks to his Zanpakuto.

He had lost the previous contest. The Shinigami captain's spiritual pressure was superior to his, and his slash was sharper. The moment the two crescent moons collided, his Crescent Moon Slash was cut in two, so he actually took the damage from the slash head-on.

Kurosaki Ichigo glanced at Ishida Ryugen; his friend was being held up by a small Shinigami and couldn't support him at all.

"I can't fall..." Kurosaki Ichigo used his Zanpakuto to support his body and stood up shakily.

"Did my intuition fail me? It's much weaker than I expected," Kenpachi Zaraki said casually, slinging his Zanpakuto over his back.

The opponent's strength did not meet Kenpachi Zaraki's expectations, which greatly reduced his fighting spirit.

Because the vice-captain of the 11th Division is Kenpachi Kurosaki, and there are many other powerful fellow disciples to spar with, Kenpachi Zaraki's spiritual pressure was maintained at a high level, which was far beyond what Ichigo Kurosaki could withstand at his current level. With just one Getsuga Tenshou, he shattered Ichigo's Bloodlust Armor.

Faced with the immediate crisis, Ichigo Kurosaki was no longer able to hide and abandoned his idea of ​​continuing to pretend to be a Shinigami.

A cloud of spiritual particles gathered above his head, and countless threads hung down, connecting to various parts of his body.

A chaotic mess of celestial puppets!

What is this?

Kenpachi Zaraki had long forgotten what he had learned at the Spirit Arts Academy and didn't recognize it as a Quincy ability at all.

"I don't know what you did, but it seems you can continue fighting." Kenpachi Zaraki grinned and once again used Shunpo to advance.

call out--

Kenpachi Zaraki arrived in front of Ichigo Kurosaki in an instant.

puff-

With a flash of light, Ichigo Kurosaki received a wound on his abdomen.

However, Ichigo Kurosaki was unaffected by his injuries and immediately launched a counterattack.

puff-

Kenpachi Zaraki did not take the initiative to block the attack; instead, he used his body to take the hit of Ichigo Kurosaki's counterattack.

In the blink of an eye, several wounds appeared on both of them.

"You seem to have become even more resilient!" Kenpachi Zaraki grinned, making the scar on his face look even more terrifying.

Despite their injuries, the two continued to move. After being stabbed again, Kurosaki Ichigo conjured a Holy Arrow in his left hand and slammed it into Kenpachi Zaraki's abdomen.

However, Kenpachi Zaraki did not do as he wished. He grabbed the Sacred Arrow with one hand and threw it behind him, easily neutralizing Ichigo Kurosaki's attack.

"You're a Quincy?"

Kenpachi Zaraki then realized that his opponent was a Quincy.

He came to the back mountain of the dojo because he sensed unfamiliar spiritual pressure fluctuations there, but he didn't know who the two people who had trespassed into the back mountain of the dojo were.

Ichigo Kurosaki did not respond to Kenpachi Zaraki's question. Dense spiritual veins appeared on his body as he switched from his Blood Armor to Active Blood Armor: "Getsuga Tenshou—"

The Getsuga Tenshou, powered by the Blood Armor, increased in power several times over, making even Kenpachi Zaraki feel threatened.

"My intuition was right!" Kenpachi Zaraki became even more excited, swinging his Zanpakuto and unleashing another blue streak of light.

This time, the blue light did not sever the golden crescent moon, but remained locked in a stalemate for a while.

However, Kenpachi Zaraki's spiritual pressure was ultimately stronger than Ichigo Kurosaki's, and the blue light gradually pushed the golden crescent moon back.

After holding out for more than ten seconds, the golden crescent moon quickly dissipated, and the deadly blue light continued to approach.

He had just switched his Blood Armor to Dynamic Blood Armor form in order to unleash a more powerful Crescent Moon Strike, but now, in order to maintain Crescent Moon Strike, he is temporarily unable to switch his Blood Armor back to Static Blood Armor.

Without the protection of the Bloodstained Armor, he was simply unable to withstand a single attack from the blue light.

Just as Ichigo Kurosaki was desperately releasing his spiritual pressure, some white substance appeared on his face.

Chapter 452 Reunion

After the dust settled, Kenpachi Zaraki stepped forward and looked at Ichigo Kurosaki, who was curled up on the ground.

"mask?"

Kenpachi Zaraki saw a mask covered in cracks next to Ichigo Kurosaki.

"It seems that the void within him has awakened."

Kenpachi Zaraki suddenly heard his teacher's voice and was surprised to find that his teacher was standing right next to Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Does the teacher know this brat?" Kenpachi Zaraki asked.

“He is Isshin’s son, Kurosaki Ichigo.” July picked up the mask from the ground; there were three dark red claw marks on the left side of the mask.

"I see, no wonder he could use Getsuga Tenshou." Kenpachi Zaraki scratched his face. "I couldn't stop myself just now, am I dead?"

"He won't die, he's still breathing."

July was just watching the battle here; it would be difficult for Kurosaki Ichigo to die even if he wanted to.

"Take Ichigo and that Quincy to the dojo," July continued.

Kenpachi Zaraki turned his head and saw that Ryūgen Ishida on the other side had already been controlled by his teacher's Binding Spell.

......

The next day, Ichigo Kurosaki woke up in an unfamiliar room once again.

"Your injuries are almost healed?" Kurosaki Ichigo recalled his battle with the Shinigami captain. He should have been seriously injured. He was only able to stand up during the battle because of the Random Armored Puppet. But now his injuries were not a big problem.

With his Zanpakuto right beside him, the person who saved him must have meant no harm.

"Who saved me this time? Could it be Ryugen who rescued me...? It seems like I'm still in Soul Society." Kurosaki Ichigo judged that he was still in Soul Society based on the concentration of spiritual particles in the environment.

Kurosaki Ichigo slung his Zanpakuto on his back, opened the door, and stepped out of the room.

Outside the walkway is a courtyard, in which stands a red maple tree that takes two people to hug.

Ichigo Kurosaki noticed someone in the courtyard; a young man was sitting on the edge of the veranda.

There was a small tea table next to the young man, but the white haori he was wearing made Ichigo Kurosaki's heart tighten.

However, the words "Shikatori" printed on the haori relieved Ichigo Kurosaki.

He had some basic knowledge about the Grim Reapers; the captain of the Grim Reaper wore a haori with the squad number printed on the back.

"Did you save me? Thank you!"

Ichigo Kurosaki took the initiative to step forward and sat on the other side of the coffee table.

"You're in good physical condition and recovering quickly," July said softly.

"Is this the Shikatriju Dojo? You wouldn't happen to be Rukia's teacher, would you? I remember Rukia saying that she was a disciple of the Shikatriju school!" Kurosaki Ichigo quickly asked, recalling what he had heard from Rukia.

Rukia didn't reveal much about the dojo to Ichigo Kurosaki, only saying that her teacher was a very powerful Shinigami and that the Shikatori school was a top-tier swordsmanship school in Soul Society.

“This is indeed the Shikari Dojo, and I am Rukia’s teacher.” July nodded gently.

"Drink this bowl of medicine!" A person came out of the kitchen and handed Kurosaki Ichigo a bowl of medicine.

"Let's go rescue Rukia together... Wait!" Kurosaki Ichigo stared in disbelief when he saw who had handed him the medicine. "What are you doing here?!"

The person who just handed him the medicine was none other than his rescue target on this trip—Kuchiki Rukia!

"I'm fine... There's actually no precedent in Soul Society for passing on Shinigami powers to humans..." Rukia Kuchiki shrugged. "So there's no such rule, and passing on Shinigami powers to you isn't a serious crime."

Currently, there has been no defection incident involving the substitute Shinigami Ginjo Kūgo in Soul Society, so there are no relevant regulations in Soul Society. Rukia previously thought that passing on Shinigami powers to humans was a serious crime, but she was simply misled by her teacher.

"Then I got beaten up for nothing?!" Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned.

"I'm so sorry! Although I was kept in the dark before, I still want to apologize to you!" Rukia Kuchiki felt a little embarrassed thinking about how badly Ichigo Kurosaki was beaten up while trying to save her.

"Rukia was unaware of this matter," July said with a smile. "Forcing you to come to Soul Society was also to give you some experience there."
