In Soul Society, I just want to retire

Almost all Shinigami are only proficient in two or three abilities.

Some even specialize in just one thing, which is already very impressive.

Now, among the Gotei 13, the only ones who have completed all four items are Yamabuki Detang himself and Captain Yamamoto.

After all, human energy is limited.

"Okay, you are ambitious. I like people like you. Let's start practicing from the way of ghosts now." Yamabuki Ditang began to explain the various principles of the way of ghosts, various spells, and how to finally form and release them.

"What I just taught you is the simplest ghost art, one of the breaking ways, rebuke. A force will shoot out from your fingertips to knock down the enemy. Now try it yourself. Don't be anxious. Everyone will fail when they first learn the ghost art. You will get used to it slowly." Yamabuki Ditang looked at his disciple with a smile.

There were a few empty bottles of water in the distance.

Aizen stretched out his fingertips.

"One of the ways of breaking is to rebuke."

Bang bang bang bang!

The force that shot out from the fingertips was like a bullet from a pistol, smashing several empty bottles in the distance.

Aizen turned around and asked innocently, "Master, is that so?"

Yamabuki Ditang swallowed hard. He had only submitted it once. Wasn't his learning ability a little too strong?

This makes me, as a master, feel very unfulfilled!

"Well, not bad. You have mastered the easiest ghost path in such a short time. Next, we will upgrade and learn the fourth broken path, white thunder." Yamabuki Ditang said.

"Okay." Aizen sat next to him like a good baby.

Then he learned Bai Lei completely in a very short time.

"Master, these ghost techniques seem very simple! Can you teach me something more difficult? There is no challenge at all." Aizen said.

"Alright, today I'll show you my most powerful demonic technique! Stand still... Five Dragons will be destroyed!"

……

At lunchtime, the two of them went to the cafeteria of the Gotei 13. Aizen couldn't help but roll his eyes. How could his master not be so good at playing tricks? He had taught him well, but now he was trying to scare him with the Five Dragon Transformations.

As a result, the training ground was directly destroyed.

The captain thought there was a riot and rushed over in his Ryujin Jakka.

After finally learning that this was caused by Yamabuki Detang, he coldly said, "The cost of repairing the site will be deducted from your salary."

"Teacher, the book says that the power of instant Kidō will be reduced. Is this true?" Aizen asked.

"It's true, but it's useless to me. My physique is quite special. I am born with the ability to instantly unleash all kinds of ghost techniques, and the power will not be reduced at all. What do you think? Are you envious?" Yamabuki Ditang said.

Sure enough, he is not the only peerless genius in this world.

Although Aizen had many friends at school, he felt out of place because of his strong abilities.

"Also, as long as a person's spiritual pressure is strong enough, it is not impossible to cast ghost arts instantly without loss. Remember, strong spiritual pressure is truly strong. When two people have exactly the same abilities, the one with stronger spiritual pressure will definitely win. The battle between the Shinigami is a battle of spiritual pressure. Remember? You must always think about increasing your spiritual pressure." Yamabuki Ditang said.

Aizen nodded slightly. In fact, he already knew this conclusion, but it had not been verified yet. What came out of his teacher's mouth coincided with his thoughts.

"But... there are always exceptions." Yamabuki Detang suddenly made a sudden change of pace: "I was just talking about the battle between the Shinigami. If the opponent is not a Shinigami, this theory may not hold water."

"The enemy is not a Shinigami? Are you talking about a Hollow?" Aizen asked.

"No, Hollows are also part of this system. What I'm really talking about are the Quincies. They are the true threat of the Shinigami." Yamabuki Ditang said, "Quincies can awaken various rule-based abilities. They might be able to ignore the strength of spiritual pressure and cause direct damage."

Aizen's interest was immediately piqued: "Have you ever encountered this kind of enemy before?"

"Well, I've met more than one." Yamabuki Ditang thought of the Invisible Empire's personal guards five hundred years ago.

They are all rule-based abilities, and each one is extremely disgusting.

When watching anime in the past, many people complained that the combat power of the Thousand Year Blood War comics was shattered, and all kinds of weird abilities were unimaginative.

Just rub the previous spiritual pressure theory on the ground.

Let me give you the simplest analogy.

Just like a martial arts novel, the first 90% of the content tells you the importance of internal strength. If you have strong internal strength, you can be invincible.

As a result, in the last 10% of the novel, a large number of masters who use external skills, poisons, and witchcraft appear and pin the internal skills masters who appeared before to the ground and rub them frantically.

This is called a complete collapse of combat power.

The most typical example is Lethal Dot against Ichigo Kurosaki.

At that time, Kurosaki Ichigo awakened his dual sword mode and was able to fight the Soul King Ha, who had not activated his full-time all-mighty power, in a 30-70 fight in the Soul King Palace.

As a result, when faced with a lethal dose, it turned into a carpet without even a single cut.

Losing was so frustrating and the feeling was terrible.

According to normal logic, the difference in the positions of the two sides was huge at that time, so it was normal that Ichigo Kurosaki killed the enemy instantly with one sword.

However, in order to pave the way for the role of Lethal Dose, the protagonist was used as a stepping stone, which can only be said to be a beautiful job.

"Then...what should we do if we encounter this kind of enemy on the battlefield in the future?" Aizen asked humbly.

That's the benefit of having a good teacher.

Although a master cannot directly pass on his strength to his apprentice, the combat experience is invaluable, as it is a lesson learned with blood.

"Of course, just run away. Is there any need to think about it? Unless you can awaken a stronger power than the other party. Otherwise, under the rules, no matter how powerful the force is, it cannot be used." Yamabuki Ditang couldn't help but think of Alice in the Royal Guard five hundred years ago.

How disgusting the Book of Genesis is.

I almost killed myself when we first met.

So when you encounter this kind of opponent, the best strategy is to run away.

Chapter 6: The teacher teaches you how to use a sword

After listening to his teacher's words, Aizen nodded thoughtfully. Knowing that his opponent was stronger than himself, he still fought to the death. That was not bravery, that was being too concerned about face. Why use force when he could win with his brain and wisdom?

"Eat quickly. I'll teach you swordsmanship in the afternoon after you finish eating!" Yamabuki Ditang shoveled the rice in the bowl.

After the two finished their meal, they came to the kendo field. The others used wooden swords in the early stages of practicing swordsmanship, but Yamabuki Detang directly gave Aizen a real Zanpakutō.

"From today on, this is your Zanpakuto. The most important thing is to awaken the power of your Zanpakuto as soon as possible." Yamabuki Ditang now really wants to see the legendary mirror flower and water moon.

Afterwards, Yamabuki Toto began to teach Aizen how to use swordsmanship. As expected, Aizen was extremely talented in learning swordsmanship. No matter what kind of moves, he could basically learn them after watching them once.

However, the practice of swordsmanship is different from that of ghost arts.

"It's true that techniques are easy to learn, but your realm can't be improved by learning alone. I've set three goals for you in terms of techniques." Yamabuki Detang said leisurely, lying in the shade of a tree and watching Aizen sweating. "The first goal is to understand all the 'techniques' in the world, so that you won't be panicked by unfamiliar techniques when facing the enemy."

"The second goal is that after you have learned all the moves, forget them all. Don't keep any moves." Yamabuki Ditang continued.

Aizen, who was practicing sword not far away, stopped what he was doing after hearing this, and didn't understand what Yamabuki Detang meant.

Why learn all the tricks if you are going to forget them all?

Although Aizen didn't ask, Yamabuki Detang saw the confusion in Aizen's eyes.

"Don't understand?" asked Yamabuki Ditang.

"I really don't understand. If I forget all my tricks, won't I just be standing still?" Aizen's young face was full of curiosity.

Yamabuki Ditang brushed off the fallen leaves on his body and casually broke off a branch from a tree: "Attack!"

Aizen held the sword in both hands and looked at his teacher's posture. His whole body was full of flaws. If he didn't consider the spiritual pressure and just talked about swordsmanship, he might have a chance of winning. Aizen flew forward and stabbed Yamabuki Detang's left wrist with the sword in his hand.

But the moment he drew his sword, the small branch in Yamabuki Deitō's hand had already hit Aizen's wrist. Aizen felt a burning pain in his wrist, but he did not let go of the sword. He spun his body violently, gathering strength to prepare for the chop. However, just when his body was halfway turned, Yamabuki Deitō kicked him in the waist, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Aizen was still in shock. If this was a battle with an enemy, he would have died twice in just two seconds.

"Do you understand now?" asked Yamabuki Detang. Aizen still couldn't fully understand what Yamabuki Detang wanted to say.

"The sword techniques you just used are the elementary sword techniques of the Shinō Spiritual Arts Academy: the thrust and the wheel cut," Yamabuki Detang said leisurely. "These two moves may look simple, but they actually contain hidden secrets. The first thrust can be fake or real, serving as a feint to deceive, but can also be transformed into a real attack. The second, the wheel cut, is the true killing move. After the first strike forces the enemy back, the second strike goes straight for the enemy's head. But did you know that both of these sword techniques were created by me?"

Aizen frowned slightly and asked uncertainly, "Is it... a flaw in the swordsmanship? But how did you know I was going to use these two swordsmanship moves?"

"The subtle movements of your feet, the activity of your muscles, your eyes, the posture of drawing the sword, these details tell me that the first sword you used was definitely a thrust. And the flaw in this move is your wrist. Once the attack is blocked, you will immediately use the second sword, the wheel cut, according to the routine. And the most important thing about the wheel cut is speed. Turning around and drawing the sword is just a matter of seconds. After turning around and accumulating power, this sword is extremely powerful, but the moment you turn around, it will reveal a flaw. As long as I give a light kick, your offensive will be easily disintegrated by me." Yamabuki Ditang said with a smile.

Aizen felt a chill run down his spine. This was too terrifying! His attack had already been anticipated before he could even launch it. This was like putting his life in the hands of the enemy.

"There are no perfect moves in this world. Any move created by humans will definitely have flaws." said Yamabuki Ditang.

"So you want me to learn all the moves and then forget them all, so that I won't be stuck in the quagmire of moves?" Aizen asked.

"How clever! Since all moves have flaws, then wouldn't no moves have flaws? Use the tangible to transform the intangible, and use the intangible to break the tangible." Yamabuki Ditang patted Aizen's head: "You are still young now, it may take a long time for you to reach this level!"

In fact, many top martial artists in ancient and modern times have realized this. Not to mention the distant past, the Jeet Kune Do philosophy created by Bruce Lee, who is respected as the "Saint of Boxing", is "to use no rules as rules, and to use no way as way", which are similar in nature.

"Teacher, this is the second realm. You just said there are three realms in total. What are they?" Aizen asked in surprise.

"The third realm is 'foreknowledge', which is known as the highest realm in kendo. It is complicated to explain. To put it simply, it means 'I predicted your prediction'. All your moves and changes will be predicted by me in advance. I also suddenly realized this in a battle five hundred years ago." Yamabuki Ditang recalled the first time he met Unohana. The two of them had a passionate collision and both felt extremely satisfied.

Aizen looked at the sword in his hand and knew that he was still far from perfect.

"Then... Sensei, there are so many swordsmanship styles in the world, can I learn them all?" What Aizen really meant was: "Do you know so many swordsmanship styles?"

"Of course! Don't think I do nothing every day. I've actually mastered every sword style in the world. Just follow me and learn." Yamabuki Ditang looked at the sun in the sky and realized it was almost time to get off work. "Okay, stop practicing. Come on, I'll take you to eat."

Yamabuki Toto brought Aizen to the 12th Division. Since we are talking about free meals, we cannot forget Hikifune Kiryu.

Hikifune Kiryu has now taken over all matters of the 12th Division, and Zenjoji Arihime has completely become a hands-off manager. It won't be long before the position of captain of the 12th Division is officially passed to Hikifune Kiryu.

"Yamabuki! Long time no see. Why did you bring another child here?" Hikifune Kiryu looked at Aizen happily. She liked children very much.

Aizen also saluted very politely. Judging from his appearance, he was a harmless and gentle boy.

"I bought fresh beef. How about making beef balls tonight?" Yamabuki Ditang said with a smile.

Chapter 7: The Difference Between Biological and Adopted Sons

Kiryu likes children very much and is a kind person. He is very popular in the Gotei 13. He pulls Aizen aside to chat with him, and Aizen behaves very politely. Of course, no one else knows what he is thinking.

It was just after get off work, and when I passed by the entrance of the 5th Division, I happened to meet Mako Hirako.

"Hirako! Long time no see. How about coming to my house for dinner tonight? Yamabuki has prepared fresh beef." Hikifune Kiryu said happily.

After two hundred years, Hirako has grown from a boy into a young man, and has become the vice-captain of the 5th Division. He is now the right-hand man of Obana Danjoro.

When Hirako heard that he could go to Hikifune Kiryu's house for a meal, he was naturally very happy. At the same time, he also saw Aizen following behind Yamabuki Detang.

"Old man! Is this your new disciple? Do you know that Soul Society was in an uproar the past two days?" Mako Hirako looked at Aizen with curiosity.

He really wanted to see what kind of magical powers this kid had that could make Yamabuki Ditang, who had never formally accepted a disciple, accept him as a formal disciple.

To be precise, Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake can only be considered students, not real disciples. The gap between them is huge. Moreover, when Yamabuki Toto taught his students, he did not teach them hand-in-hand like he taught Aizen.

He mostly uses a free-range approach to teach other students. I will teach you what I should teach, but how much you can understand is up to you.

In response to Hirako's words, Aizen simply smiled, appearing neither humble nor arrogant, and very decent.

In this way, a group of four people came to Hikifune Kiryu's house for dinner.

Hikifune Kiryu hummed a little tune and continued on his way, leaving the three men alone in the living room drinking tea.

"Teacher, I actually have a question. You told me before that the battle between Shinigami is a battle of spiritual pressure, but if the enemy's spiritual pressure is stronger than mine, is there any way to turn defeat into victory?" Aizen asked curiously.

Hirako Mako said with a smirk, "Of course there is a way. And this method was taught to me by your teacher himself. Do you want me to teach you?"

This was the shameful sword technique he had learned back then.

When encountering a strong enemy, he would kneel down and beg for mercy, begging the other party to spare his life.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. If the enemy's spiritual pressure is greater than yours, there are naturally ways to deal with it." Yamabuki Ditang explained very carefully: "It can be roughly divided into three aspects: time, place, and people. As the saying goes, time is not as important as place, and place is not as important as people. If you encounter an opponent who is stronger than you, you must change your battle strategy and understand what victory means. In one situation, as long as you can survive, you will win. The best way is to delay. If you have strong teammates around you, don't care about your own face, just summon them, and then the two of you will beat the enemy together until the enemy can no longer rise. You must remember that battle is not a duel. The last thing a battle needs is fairness. Anyone who talks about fairness in battle is a complete elementary school student."

"Combat is about maximizing your strengths and overcoming your enemy's weaknesses. Never engage head-on when a sneak attack is possible, and never fight one-on-one when a group fight is possible. With victory as the prerequisite, use all possible means. That's combat."

"Summoning teammates is about people, so let's talk about terrain. Simply put, it's the surrounding terrain. If you're weaker than your opponent, the more complex the terrain, the greater your chances of escaping. You can even use the terrain to counterattack."

"The weather refers to whether it is sunny or rainy, day or night, winter or summer. These seemingly insignificant conditions can become decisive factors at critical moments. For example, some ice and snow-type Zanpakutō can exert greater power on rainy days and winter days. Compared to some fire-type abilities, their power will definitely be discounted on rainy days. Of course, dropping nuclear bombs does not count. So when your strength is not as good as that of the enemy, you must take these into consideration." Yamabuki Detang said earnestly.

Hirako Mako looked at Yamabuki Detang as if he were a monster. Suddenly, he jumped up and grabbed Yamabuki Detang's neck. "Why are you so partial? Wasn't that how you taught me?"

Yamabuki Ditang rolled his eyes and said, "You're not my disciple, so why should I teach you? Haven't you learned it by now?"

"What's the point of learning now!" said Hirako Mako angrily.

Yamabuki Ditang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled like a little evil god: "You... you haven't used the shameful sword technique before, have you? That was something I made up back then!"

Mako Hirako decided that she must die together with this old pervert today.
