Bleach: The Captain of the Fifth Division Becomes Stronger Through Training

"Relax your shoulders."

"The body shouldn't be too tight."

"Imagine stepping on a fragile egg..."

"Distribute the center of gravity evenly throughout the soles of the feet, so that the movements are not deformed too much, but there is a subtle sense of restraint."

"Mastering the correct manners and showing the aura that a noble person should have is also a part of practice that must be practiced."

"Mr. Arima is still a little unskilled in this area."

The neatly dressed middle-aged woman folded her hands in front of her.

She was sitting on her knees in the corridor, looking at the panting Arima Shizuya with a smile.

"But it doesn't matter. After all, I have no relevant experience before. If you want to understand the meaning at once... it is still somewhat difficult."

so?

"As long as you practice hard, you will definitely be able to adapt."

No no no...

According to the normal context, shouldn’t we say ‘even this is great’ at this time?

Although it is just walking, the parts where the force is exerted are different and I am not very skilled...

Arima Shizuo was also acting quite 'awkward' at this moment.

If possible, I already want to rest...

But in this more than a month of getting along, the parties involved completely understood the other person's temper.

She is a middle-aged woman who looks gentle but actually refuses to give in.

She may even have some kind of relationship with the Kuchiki family as a relative, but more specific details are unknown.

It can only be said that aristocratic education is indeed different.

Practice every day as soon as you open your eyes.

From the way you eat to the way you speak. Right down to the wearing of accessories, the changes in eyes and expressions...

There is so much to learn.

Basically, it can be said that as soon as you open your eyes every day, someone will start to guide you to do things.

Arima Jing even doubted whether these people were even particular about going to the toilet...

Maybe the reason why I didn't remind myself now was just out of careful consideration of 'not to scare the newcomers'?

But no matter what.

This novel and awkward experience really made Shizuya Arima feel "burnt on the outside and tender on the inside".

Too particular, nobleman.

I'm afraid I won't forget it even a hundred years later.

While he was complaining about these things in his heart, beside Yu Arima Shizuya, the serious-looking Byakuya Kuchiki was carefully stepping on the so-called noble steps.

Keep going back and forth in this room.

Arima Shizuya looked at the opponent's back. His training clothes were completely soaked with sweat and wet.

Even the curvature of the back is revealed at this moment.

It can be said to be a veritable 'sweat'.

"Kuchiki-dono's level of concentration is commendable. Mr. Arima, please follow his example."

Although it's nothing too extreme.

But now just hearing it makes me feel ashamed.

Is this the so-called aristocratic atmosphere? What does it mean to subjugate the enemy without fighting... He sighed slightly in his heart, and Arima Shizu also sat up.

Because I am a newbie, I am allowed to take a short break when I feel awkward.

So at this time, we can observe Kuchiki Byakuya's movements from the perspective of a bystander.

——This guy.

Really hardworking.

Not the polite perfunctory kind, but a sincere emotion.

Because he has already participated in it, the person involved understands how complicated this thing is.

‘This guy can still be so persistent. ’

Should he be said to be a serious descendant of a noble family? It's somewhat emotional.

"Okay, Mr. Arima. We should continue..."

The other party seemed to want to say something else, but before he could speak, the timer placed beside him rang.

The other party's tone was slightly condensed, then he raised his head as if he was relieved and said to Byakuya Kuchiki who was just about to turn around.

"Kuchiki-dono, today's deportment training ends here."

With a thud, Kuchiki Byakuya fell to the ground like a big tree with its roots ripped out. At this moment, he was like Arima Shizuya...

Breathing heavily.

"Well, you two, please give me more advice tomorrow."

Kuchiki Byakuya over there didn't even have the energy left to say a word, so Arima Shizuya could only smile sarcastically and say goodbye politely.

"Um...please, would you like to take a day off to rest?"

The other party packed his luggage, the smile on his face not diminishing at all.

"I'm sorry to have to obey."

Gua! I have been training intensively for more than a month, and now I really can’t stand it!

Arima Shizuya, who had completely given up, followed suit and lay down on the tatami.

Listening to the footsteps outside fading away, it took me more than ten seconds to adjust my breathing.

Then he struggled to get up and approached Byakuya Kuchiki not far away.

"How does it feel?"

"……very tired."

But it's not time to relax yet.

In order to be able to become the head of the Kuchiki family, it was impossible for Byakuya Kuchiki to have the idea of ​​'rest' despite such hardships.

As soon as he stood up, Kuchiki Byakuya pushed the hair that fell in front of his forehead back behind his ears, with a serious and serious expression.

He said to Shizuya Arima beside him.

"Arima-kun, could you please practice with me today?"

Although we have not gotten to know each other well enough to trust each other after a month of getting along, it is also because we are training together every day...

There is a somewhat subtle sense of tacit understanding between the two.

Shizuya Arima is also well aware of Kuchiki Byakuya's hint at this moment.

here we go again.

The person involved couldn't help but show an expression as if he had a toothache.

"But it's almost time to eat, right? Why don't you go wash up and tidy up first?"

The posture training itself is a course arranged in the afternoon. Generally speaking, by the time it is over, the sun is about to set.

It's really not good for you to be so curled.

Dabai, please relax a little sometimes. I'm so ashamed of you for doing this.

Just looking at the other party's serious expression, Arima Shizu could only helplessly pat the back of his head.

Then he let out a long sigh.

Forget it, no matter how hard you try, the other party won't listen.

"I know, then I'll practice with you for a while."

After a pause, Arima Shizuya raised his right hand and raised his index finger to his mouth.

"But not for too long. After all, I'm already very hungry..."

Kuchiki Byakuya was wiping his face and suddenly showed a happy expression.

"No problem, I won't waste too much of Arima-kun's time!"

"No, it's better not to say this..."

"Why?"

"Because you took away the few roles others had."

Selectively ignoring these daily complaints, Shizuya Arima stretched out his hand and pulled Byakuya up.

The two simply washed their faces in the courtyard, and then in unison untied the cloth strips used to tie their hair.

It's not a conventional action, it's just a subconscious action.

After all, considering what he was going to do next, it would be a bit stupid to let his long, messy hair fall down and block his vision...

Unbutton the cloth strip on your hand and make a closed circle around the back of your head.

Arima Shizuya stared at the sunset on the horizon and took advantage of the situation to make a stretch-like movement.

"Speaking of which, it's been a week. Don't you want to take a break or something?"

Looking back, it probably happened just last week.

I don’t know what caused Kuchiki Byakuya’s sudden convulsion, and he suddenly mentioned that he wanted to have a discussion with him.

Honestly.

Arima Shizuya was a little reluctant at first.

After all, this matter is basically zero profit for him...

'This guy's Shunpo is not as good as Yoichi, and the other three major types cannot be compared with ordinary captain-level figures now. ’

Don't even say it's Byakuya Kuchiki.

At this time, even if Kuchiki Ginrei were to spar with him, if he didn't show his murderous intention, there would definitely be no pressure on his side.

But I didn't expect that the other party also knew how to stalk.

The person involved had to find out later...it turned out to be something that Kuchiki Ginrei had let slip when he was feeling emotional.

‘Arima Shizuya’s strength far exceeds yours. ’

Although it won't cause any jealousy.

But as the next generation heir of the Kuchiki family, for him to "take second place" is somewhat heart-wrenching...

Arima Shizuya, who couldn't bear the disturbance, finally agreed.

It's also natural.

Under the witness of Kuchiki Ginrei, Baymax was beaten so hard by Arima Shizuya that he couldn't find the north...

After all, to this day, Shizuya Arima has already mastered the four major elements.

Compared to Dabai, who is still receiving education, the strengths of both sides are naturally not on the same level.

"Well... let's ask it one last time."

Twisting his neck, Arima Shizuya said helplessly.

"This is much more tiring than posture training. Do we really need to continue today?"

Kuchiki Byakuya's voice came quickly, and the other party seemed to respond without thinking.

"Learn more from those who are capable. This is also the teaching of Master Yinling. Of course, if it is inconvenient for Mr. Arima, then that is a different matter."

not to mention.

Kuchiki Byakuya showed a faint smile at this moment.

"Sir Yinling is not in the team today, so we can postpone dinner a little bit."

ha?

Arima Shizu also showed a rather helpless expression.

"This is considered an exercise of privilege. If you find out, you will be punished, right?"

"Of course, Arima-kun won't tell anyone."

Helpless Arima Shizuo could only sigh.

Having said all that, how could he back down?

After tying all her long hair back, Arima Shizuya shook her head lightly, feeling the slight grip on her scalp.

Half turned around at the moment.

He saw Kuchiki Byakuya taking two wooden swords from the side wall.

At this moment, he handed out the handle in his left hand and placed it in front of Arima Shizuya.

Nodding slightly to express his agreement, Shizuo Arima reached out and held it in his hand.

The touch of the wooden knife is thick and oily, and you can feel it just the moment you touch it... the workmanship of this thing is quite fine.

It is definitely not comparable to the bargains in Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy.

Holding a wooden sword in hand, Arima Shizuya took four steps back.

While moving, the boy's breathing was adjusted slowly but firmly at this moment.

The originally relaxed expression softened somewhat.

The tired demeanor also disappeared, replaced by some indescribable sense of oppression.

Arima Shizuya turned half sideways.

sand……

The tabi scraped against the gravel underneath, making a clear sound.

At the same time.

Standing on the opposite side, Byakuya Kuchiki tensed his expression and took a charging posture.

With only one hand holding the knife, Arima Shizuya's expression became calm, and his tone was also without sadness or joy.

"Then, please do it."

A little knowledge that is a little less noticeable.

When the two sides are sparring and confronting each other. Usually, the side that takes the initiative to attack is the one that needs to be guided.

Although it is emotional, it makes people sigh.

But at this moment, Arima Shizuya has indeed become a de facto "senior".

'Is it time for me to start teaching people? '

Time flies so fast...

Take a deep breath, Byakuya Kuchiki on the opposite side shouted loudly.

"Please teach me, Arima-kun!"

As soon as the voice fell, Byakuya Kuchiki's figure flashed.

As if the whole person was distorted by the air, he disappeared in an instant.

Arima Shizuya did not react. He just swept around calmly and held the wooden sword in his hand horizontally behind him.

Bang!

Although it was a collision of wooden tools, the explosion was equally loud.

Arima Shizuya turned his head and saw that Kuchiki Byakuya had flashed behind him.

"The instant step of the Shihouin family is a special type of use. It cannot be used indiscriminately... without the sudden touch, its effect will be greatly reduced."

It is rare to speak in such a teaching tone.

Arima Shizuya took a half step back at this moment, turned sideways... and twisted the posture of the wooden sword, and Kuchiki Byakuya's sword was also brought to the side.

Not good.

If the posture collapsed, the flaw would be huge.

Kuchiki Byakuya wanted to distance himself again after retracting his moves in time.

But Arima Shizuya did not give the other party this opportunity.

A ghost-like figure entangled him, and three cold rays flashed in a row, making Kuchiki Byakuya's eyes widen.

Right wrist, left shoulder, temple...

It's not a tricky angle to block it!

Raise your hand, hold the knife.

With a breath stuck in your throat, Kuchiki Byakuya attacked left and right.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It was like hitting a thick steel plate, and the feedback was enough to make people's hands tremble.

But at this moment, the emotions were unusually high - blocked! In all these days, this is the first time that I have completely blocked Arima Shizuya's attack.

I have made some progress, right?

"Do you think you have made progress?"

A rather playful voice came, and Arima Shizuya smiled, and at this moment he turned the wooden sword in his hand into a poisonous snake...

It bounced straight towards Kuchiki Byakuya's chest.

Puff.

A muffled sound came, and Kuchiki Byakuya flew out straight.

Looking at the other party's embarrassed back, struggling to get up at this moment. Arima Shizuya stood in place and lightly picked a beautiful knife flower.

"The first two blows were just to paralyze you, the last one to the temple was the purpose..."

"It's easy to exert force with both hands, right?"

"But it also lacks the ability to move. Once you raise it above your head, it will be very awkward to retract it."

So.

Arima Shizuka also raised the corners of her mouth and showed a plain smile.

"You couldn't react at all when you stabbed her chest, right?"
