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

"Death, go to hell and repent!" A green flash of light condensed again at Barragan's fingertip.

At that moment, a bolt of lightning shot out from the flames and struck the green flash that had re-formed on Barragan's finger.

A terrifying spiritual pressure exploded at Barragan's fingertips.

boom--

Chapter 194 Nel's Arrancar Form

The lightning bolt collided instantly with the green flash at Barragan's fingertips.

A terrifying spiritual pressure suddenly exploded at Barragan's fingertips.

boom--

At the same time, the external virtual group discovered that the shadow space was rapidly dissipating.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying explosion swept over them.

"It's Lord Barragán's..."

Before the great void could finish speaking, it was completely consumed by the flames.

Except for a few who were standing in front of the shadow space and were swallowed up by the explosion before they could react, the rest of the Hollows quickly retreated.

dong dong dong dong-

The Hollows' Resonance emitted a continuous, drum-like sound.

A moment later, the firelight dissipated.

Looking at the Cero, one sleeve of Barragan's robe had been blown off, and the pale white skeletal arm exposed by the tattered sleeve had also had half of its finger bones destroyed by his own Cero.

The Grim Reaper standing opposite Barragan was clad in a long black robe, wielding a black blade, and exuded a terrifying spiritual pressure and aura.

Barragan's empty eyes were fixed on the Grim Reaper in front of him. The Hollows couldn't read his expression from the skull, but they knew he was burning with rage.

What the Voidlings didn't know was that, besides anger, Barragán felt a sense of astonishment.

What a great speed!

The lightning bolt was too fast, and it was also obscured by the firelight. By the time he realized the threat of the lightning, it was too late to dodge or dispel the holographic flash that was gathering.

"Grim Reaper, your technique is the fastest I've ever seen."

Barragán's cold voice rang out.

July ignored him and instead slowly said:

"This is a warning."

"Arrogant!" Barragan was furious when the Grim Reaper ignored him, but as an ancient Hollow, he had some knowledge of the Soul Society.

He realized that Soul Society had discovered his gathering of an army.

"A warning from Soul Society..." Barragan said coldly.

"You shouldn't have set your sights on the Death God's stronghold," July said softly.

By saying this, he could kill two birds with one stone: he could both warn Barragan not to plot against the Death God's stronghold and prevent Barragan from discovering that he was there to rescue Nelielu's two henchmen.

Otherwise, once they leave Hueco Mundo in July, Las Noches might retaliate against Pesser and Dondchaka.

Barragan was horrified; he hadn't expected that his little tricks would be discovered by the Soul Society so quickly.

The Soul Society's attention to Hueco Mundo far exceeded his expectations!

Although Barragan considered himself the King of Hueco Mundo, he also understood that Las Noches was far inferior to the Soul Society's Seireitei.

Barragan has no immediate plans to directly confront Soul Society. The purpose of assembling the army is to expand Las Noches's control. It would be even better if they could drive away the Shinigami of the Great Forest of Menreiki.

However, he wouldn't show weakness in front of the Hollows at this moment: "Even the Grim Reapers cannot invade the territory of Las Noches!"

“My warning has been delivered. Goodbye, Barragán… I hope you don’t let power go to your head,” July said with a smile.

Then, July's body sank into the shadows and quickly left the place.

The Void beings exclaimed in surprise, "He's gone!"

"Lord Barragan! Shall we give chase?!"

Barragan raised his other intact arm to stop his men from pursuing him: "Forget it, his abilities are very strange, and ordinary methods cannot harm him at all."

"I've never seen this Grim Reaper before... Is he a captain who has risen to the rank of Grim Reaper in the last few hundred years...?" Barragan watched the departing figure, his heart sinking slightly.

Soul Society has gained another powerful new captain!

The Shinigami are uniquely blessed; the probability of strong individuals appearing in Soul Society is much higher than in Hueco Mundo.

If we only consider the ranks from Chief Officer to Vice-Captain, there are many Adjuchas in Hueco Mundo who have reached this level, far exceeding the number of Chief Officers and Vice-Captains in Soul Society.

However, when it comes to top-tier captain-level powerhouses, the number of Vasto Lordes in Hueco Mundo that can reach this level is far lower than the number of captain-level powerhouses in Soul Society.

This is also why he doesn't want to easily start a war.

...

On the other side, Shikatoshi Nanatsuki caught up with Aizen Sousuke and Nelliel after traveling at full speed for twenty minutes.

"The teacher has caught up!" Nelielu exclaimed in surprise.

“The Hollows of Las Noches really can’t cause much trouble for you, Master,” Aizen Sousuke said.

"It's all over now. The Hollows from Hueco Mundo didn't catch up," July said with a smile.

He glanced at the information he hadn't checked earlier; after rescuing Nelielu's two followers, her reputation level had risen to "close".

"That's amazing! Even Barragan of Las Noches couldn't do anything to you, Master!" Nellyel looked at July with utter admiration, her eyes shining, her pupils seemingly containing starlight.

Nellyel has a very limited understanding of Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the Human World.

In her worldview, Barragan, the King of Hueco Mundo, is the most powerful being. July's current actions have completely shattered her worldview.

A new set of inequalities has been reconstructed in her mind:

Teacher > Barragan > Las Noches and other Hollows.

Therefore, she came to the conclusion that teachers are the most powerful!

"If you train with me, Nel will become just as powerful." July patted Nelielu's head, the bone mask covering her head feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"Nilu?"

"Your name is a bit long, I think this abbreviation is good."

"It sounds really nice, from now on you can call me Nilu!"

Pesser and Dondchaka, who were initially wary of Shikagoshi Nanatsuki, were quickly put at ease after seeing his interaction with Nelieel, as they were charmed by his kindness and gentleness.

A day later, Nereil took Pesser and Dondchaka to a place far away from Las Noches to prevent them from being found by the Hollows of Las Noches after she left with her teacher.

After settling Pesser and Dondchaka, Nellyel left Hueco Mundo with her teacher.

...

In the Soul Society, somewhere in the Outer District, a black rift appeared in the sky. After the black rift split open, three figures wearing hooded cloaks and capes were revealed behind it.

Nellyel was also wearing a hooded cloak that could shield her spiritual pressure, so as not to let other Shinigami sense the fluctuations of her Hollow's spiritual pressure.

“I’ve been to the human world, but this is my first time visiting Soul Society!” Nereel was very curious about everything in Soul Society.

Nellyel is a Hollow, so she naturally has some ability to manipulate space. It's easy for her to go to the human world, but it's not so easy for her to come to the Soul Society.

The black cavity surrounding Soul Society is protected by a protective spell, which will trigger an alert if any Hollow gets close.

However, July had frequently traveled to Hueco Mundo on her own in recent years and was already very familiar with these protective techniques, so bringing Nellyel into Soul Society would not be a difficult task.

After returning to Soul Society in July, he immediately took out his communication device and sent information to Yoruichi Shihouin.

A vibrant voice rang out from the communication device: "Teacher!"

"Yoruichi, I have some information to tell you," July said.

"Wait a minute! I'll find a secluded spot!" Yoruichi Shihouin said hurriedly.

A moment later, Yoruichi Shihōin's voice came through the communication machine again: "I was just training the squad members. There were quite a few people. What information did you get, Master?"

As the vice-captain of the Second Division, Yoruichi Shihouin is also responsible for the daily training of the squad members, which makes her much busier than before.

“I went to Hueco Mundo and found that Barragan is recruiting Hollows near Las Noches and gathering an army. They may want to take down the Shinigami stronghold in the Hollow Forest.”

In July, Yoruichi Shihouin received intelligence that Hueco Mundo was assembling an army.

The Seireitei does not allow Shinigami to go to Hueco Mundo without a reason. He can't directly reveal this information, but he can give it to Yoruichi and let the Onmitsukido investigate.

July didn't consider his warning foolproof. He wasn't sure if it would dissuade Barragan from targeting the Grim Reaper's stronghold, so he chose to pass the information to Seireitei through Yoruichi.

The Hueco Mundo Expeditionary Force will be back in a few years, and July doesn't want it to be lost at the hands of Las Noches.

This might make the Seireitei feel that Hueco Mundo is too powerful, and prompt them to continue sending expeditionary forces to Hueco Mundo to attack Las Noches.

This may affect his plans for July. After he becomes the captain of the 12th Division, he plans to establish a laboratory in Hueco Mundo to study Hollowfication of Shinigami, Shinigami Hollowfication, and the Hogyoku.

"Assembling an army? What is Barragan planning?" Yoruichi Shihouin was somewhat surprised. "I will send someone to investigate this matter. Thank you for the information, teacher!"

After delivering the information, July sent Aizen Sousuke back to process the sand materials containing ethereal particles that he had brought back. He then took Nelliel to the laboratory built with the Killing Stone.

"Teacher, will I be arrested if I walk around Soul Society?" Nelieel said dejectedly.

She then realized that her form was very different from that of a human soul, and even though she was wearing a cloak to shield her spiritual pressure, she could not hide her size.

"I've prepared a gift for you. It can grant you the power of the Grim Reaper and allow you to evolve into a more perfect form." July took out the 'Grim Reaper Spirit Particle Vaccine'.

"Something that can make me evolve?" Nelieel looked at the blue syringe in her teacher's hand with a puzzled expression.

"Nel, your Hollow hole is on your head, right?" July stuck her finger into the eye socket of the antelope skull on Nelel's head.

There was nothing inside.

In July, I need to persuade Nereil to use the 'Death God Spirit Particle Vaccine'.

He had only known Nelliel for a short time, and although his reputation level was already quite high, his level of trust was far lower than that of his other disciples.

“It’s on the head…” Nelieel nodded.

“The void represents a lack. The void’s form is incomplete, and this incompleteness brings an uncontrollable hunger to the void,” July said slowly. “Therefore, some voids that cannot suppress their own hunger will constantly devour other souls in an attempt to fill their own void.”

"But if it just devours other souls like this, the void will never be able to fill the missing parts."

"because..."

July paused for a moment, then continued, "There are limits to the virtual world!"

"To fill its own gaps, it must introduce other forces!"

Neliel's eyes shone with an untainted light as she nodded blankly: "Then... what should I do?"

July gestured to the 'Death God Spirit Particle Vaccine' in her hand: "It allows your body to withstand the power of Death."

"In this way, I can use the power of the Grim Reaper to fill my own deficiencies and evolve into a more perfect form!"

Neliel, unsuspecting, nodded repeatedly: "Teacher! I want to fill the void within myself!"

"Then I'll begin." July had already carefully read the instructions for using the 'Death God Spirit Particle Vaccine', and directly inserted the syringe into Nelieel's arm. The azure liquid quickly flowed down her arm and into her body.

A moment later, the spiritual pressure within Nellyel's body became somewhat chaotic.

"I seem to have a fever..." Nelieel said anxiously.

"Don't worry, this is normal," July said gently. "Next, I'm going to inject my blood and the pressure of the Grim Reaper."

“Hmm…” Nelielu hummed softly.

The tingling sensation spreading through her body left her speechless.

In July, she took a vial of blood containing the spiritual particles of a captain-level Shinigami from her own arm and injected it into Nelieel's artery.

The Shinigami's blood and spiritual pressure flowed into Neriel's body, and quickly reacted with the Shinigami spiritual particle vaccine in her blood.

Nelliel's body surface was covered with dense blue veins, making her look somewhat like a Quincy activating their Blood Armor ability.

At the same time, her physical form is also undergoing drastic changes.

Cracks appeared in the bone armor covering the upper half of the humanoid body, above the abdomen, and it began to disintegrate.
