Shirou's clones number 30 million

"It's not what Long Gui thinks."

As she spoke, Orihime Inoue suddenly realized that she seemed to have a hard time explaining herself.

Although we were together last night, it was just during special training.

Of course, she wouldn't believe it if I said that.

Rather, few people would believe their bizarre experience yesterday.

"Speaking of which, does Long Gui know about the Yorozuya?"

"What an awkward change of topic! It seems that Orihime has indeed fallen for someone else."

"No way! Besides, Ichigo and I aren't like that."

"Oh...! You've never explained this before, so that's how it is?"

Arisawa Ryūki laughed for a while, then muttered to himself as if talking to himself:

"That's good. Rukia and Ichigo are a bit strange. I always felt that their relationship was unusual. You'll have a hard time winning against her."

"Everyone says we're not in that kind of relationship anymore."

As she spoke, Orihime Inoue unconsciously thought of the manga "Bleach".

I thought it was fake before, but who would have thought it was all real.

Moreover, he himself had become the Grim Reaper.

However, I don't have the same fighting power as Ichigo, the protagonist of the manga. If I were to face a Hollow, I would definitely be no match for him.

"Ryuki, have you ever considered that the stories in the manga 'Bleach' are actually based on real-life prototypes?"

"Orihime already knows?"

Orihime Inoue paused, intending to subtly hint that the manga might be real.

But why does this sound like I'm the last person to know?

"You knew from the beginning that the comic's content was true?"

"I'm Ichigo's childhood friend, and I know his family. The spiritual pressure and Zanpakuto in the manga are definitely fake. But the interpersonal relationships are all real."

Arisawa Ryūki paused, then continued:

"To be honest, even the names haven't changed. However, there are some differences from reality."

"For example, Ichigo's mother died young in the manga, but that's not the case in reality. I ran into her on the street the other day and even greeted her."

"I don't know why Ichigo doesn't call the police in this manga where everything is completely consistent with reality?"

"If it were me, I would definitely sue the comic book author and make him change the name!"

“Ichigo must have his own troubles too,” Orihime Inoue said unconsciously.

Who knows what he's thinking?

Ariwa Tatsuki's voice unconsciously lowered a few decibels.

"Ever since Rukia came, Ichigo seems to have become distant from us."

"Now he's picked up the same bad habit as Rukia, taking leave every few days."

Huh...?

I had never paid attention to Arisawa Tatsuki's tone before.

But today, perhaps due to a change in her state of mind, she suddenly realized that Tatsuki Arisawa might have always liked Ichigo.

"Didn't Rukia transfer schools?"

"No! Where did you hear this false rumor? Rukia didn't transfer schools, she just took a long leave of absence. I heard she made an agreement with the principal. She doesn't need to come to school normally, she only needs to take the final exams."

"This... I haven't seen Rukia for many days. I thought she had transferred schools. Rukia must have other more important things to do, right?"

"Hey Orihime, you're not going to pick up those bad habits of the two of them, are you?"

"No...of course not."

Inoue Orihime chuckled a few times, and had to admit that before Arisawa Tatsuki said those words, she had actually been considering whether to take a long leave.

At the very least, take a two-day short leave.

After all, it's not really appropriate to have Captain Aizen pick me up and drop me off every day.

Although he seems to have a door that can be opened anywhere, like the Anywhere Door in comics, making it very convenient to come and go.

But since he's going to be my boss, it's really inappropriate to keep bothering him.

Chapter 516 Something's Wrong with You

Chapter 516, Section 517: Something's Wrong with You

It was past midnight at Aizen's house.

Orihime Inoue held a simple sword and kept practicing the most basic sword swings.

As a newcomer, my spiritual pressure is too low. During the Kido practice just now, my spiritual power was depleted. I can only practice Hakuda while waiting for my spiritual power to recover.

Once your spiritual energy has recovered sufficiently, you can start practicing Instant Step.

After exhausting their spiritual energy, they continue fighting for free.

It is said that this practice order was adopted to avoid disturbing others at night.

"So tired..."

Finding herself alone and in complete silence, Inoue Orihime unconsciously became a little complacent, and her movements faltered.

"Tired? Then drink an energy potion and continue."

"Why...?"

The sudden sound startled Inoue Orihime, who asked cautiously:

"Aren't you asleep yet, Aizen-sensei?"

"The real me is already asleep. I am just a clone specifically monitoring you."

Inoue Orihime looked around and soon spotted Aizen sitting alone on the roof, drinking tea.

"Can clones eat?"

"Of course, the energy potion is on the table in the living room."

"Um... I'm just a little confused. Is this kind of basic exercise really meaningful? Ichigo never seems to have done anything like this in the manga?"

"The comic skips over the practice scenes and doesn't go into detail. If you find it boring, I can practice with you."

"May I?"

"of course."

Aizen (shadow clone) put away the tea set, and with a light leap, appeared in front of her.

"If you can touch my clothes with your sword, you win."

"I see."

Orihime Inoue hurriedly ran back to the inner room, drank a sip of energy potion, and felt her strength instantly restored, her face showing surprise.

She had drunk it many times before, but she was always surprised each time.

Such a miraculous potion, if sold in the modern world, would definitely sweep the globe and change the landscape of sports.

However, it's easy to imagine that such a thing must be an extremely valuable treasure, and it's impossible for it to be sold.

"I'm going to go, Aizen-sensei!"

"bring it on."

Although the practice time was only one night and a few hours, Inoue Orihime learned some sword-wielding techniques.

"drink...!"

No matter which direction you rush at, whether from the front, side, or back, you will be lightly touched by the tip of the sword and unable to move forward.

During this time, only Aizen's right hand moved, while his body remained in the same standing posture.

"Aizen-sensei, are all Shinigami this powerful? No, judging from the manga, Rukia definitely couldn't do that."

"Shall we continue?"

"Of course! This kind of practice feels much more interesting than boring sword swings. Speaking of which, what kind of ability does Aizen-sensei's Zanpakuto have?"

"Well... after a while, you'll be able to see it in the comics."

"I wonder when my Zanpakuto will awaken?"

"Pour your entire spirit and beliefs into it, and then awaken it with your heart. At that time, your Zanpakuto will naturally awaken."

"Like keeping a pet?"

"...Although it's actually similar, don't use such vulgar language. A Zanpakuto is connected to one's own soul; it is the embodiment of spirit and will."

"idealism?"

You can think of it that way.

Before we knew it, the dim sky gradually brightened.

There was also more noise on the street outside the courtyard.

That's all for today.

"Yes, Aizen-sensei."

Orihime Inoue sheathed her Zanpakuto and let out a long sigh of relief.

The next moment, she suddenly realized that Aizen in front of her had vanished instantly after forming a hand seal.

At the same time, a sound came from inside the house.

Clearly, the clone had dissipated, and the original body had already gotten up.

"Aizen-sensei, why are you up so early today?"
