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

I haven't developed the true power of my Zanpakutō?

Just hearing this sentence, Arima Shizuya's expression became a little strange. He stared at Asada beside him, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Thinking from other people's perspective, Aizen's remarks might seem a little difficult to understand.

But Arima Shizuya is different.

Abarai Renji and Ayase Gawa Yumichika in the original story line.

These two heavyweights are typical representatives of those who failed to "reconcile" with their Zanpakutō, leading to intentionally or unintentionally calling out its real name.

Then according to what Master Roku said, I am also a kind of person like them?

Thinking carefully, the current situation is indeed the case. Although Arima Shizuya has released his Zanpakutō, he has never seen the heart image in it from beginning to end.

I didn't expect that there would be a day when I would call the wrong name...

Arima Shizuya also showed an embarrassed expression, and Aizen beside him continued to speak in a soothing manner.

"Don't feel sad, Shizuya-kun. People's situations are always different. Although hardships are hard, they can also sharpen your mind and allow you to take the opportunity to climb to the top."

It is not difficult to adjust your emotions. The person involved quickly accepted the current situation.

He then began to think about what to do next.

"Then Mr. Aizen, what should I do better?"

"That's back to the original topic, Shizuya-kun."

The flat tone and expression without any waves. But under these "disguises", what Aizen said was enough to make people ashamed.

"Although it may sound a bit exaggerated, I hope you can challenge Oniyama Castle again."

"Such remarks are not nonsense, but a conclusion after careful consideration."

"Shizuya-kun probably doesn't realize it himself. You are a slow-moving person... The step-by-step approach is not effective for you."

"When necessary, I think you still need external pressure to make you take the initiative to change something."

Aizen is indeed very good at observing others.

The essence of Arima Shizuya was also explored clearly by the other party at this moment.

"Shizuya-kun probably doesn't like seeing blood."

"Although this thought has come to me before, I finally confirmed in the conversation just now that Shizuya-kun is indeed a person who doesn't like fighting."

"I don't mean to offend you. In fact, there is nothing wrong with this character. A gentle and strong individual has a unique charm in its own right."

It's just a pity.

"The law of the jungle is also one of the rules of Soul Society. If you can't be stronger than others, you will easily be swallowed up by the invisible torrent."

"We are those who go upstream... Shizuya-kun."

"If you don't progress fast enough, you will be left behind."

Aizen pursed his lips slightly, and at this moment he only showed a gentle smile.

"Although the method is a bit rough, it is indeed an effective method. True inspiration can emerge between life and death."

"Shizuya-kun, as I said before, what you need is completely different from others."

"After all, learning itself has no meaning... You lack the opportunity to transform these experiences into strength."

"So for you, I think this is the most suitable method."

This guy said something that was enough to make people shudder with a smile...

Using such a frivolous tone, he challenged a captain-level figure-the gap was too strong, and Arima Shizuya couldn't help but smile bitterly.

I fought against the ghost Yancheng (second round), is it true?

"Of course, I know that this behavior must be a burden for Shizuya-kun. So Shizuya-kun can also refuse and continue to go to other teams for in-depth internships according to my previous arrangements."

But ah.

Aizen raised his left hand and gently placed it on Arima Shizuya's shoulder.

"From a teacher's perspective, I still hope that Shizuya-kun can take the initiative to make some changes."

"And I also think that through this duel, you should be able to find the true name of the Zanpakuto."

"Well, this is the only thing I should be sure of."

He didn't choose to force it, but the words he said were enough to make people feel pressured.

In fact, Arima Shizuya was not incomprehensible to Aizen's behavior.

He was like this as early as when he first entered school.

He used spiritual pressure to force himself to improve, and then deliberately arranged contact with the 11th Division to lead the two sides to have conflicts...

Now he simply didn't pretend at all, and directly pointed at Gui Yancheng and said to him-you, you, go up and slap him twice!

Arima Shizuya lowered his head, staring at his waist, and was silent for a long moment.

"Aizen-sensei."

"I'm here, Shizuya-kun."

"If I fail in my challenge to Oni-Ganjo..."

"Well, I'll be killed. After all, the other party has no reason to hold back, and has said something like 'I won't let you go' in public before."

"Then do you think I have a chance of winning?"

"Very small."

"But it's not zero, right?"

"Yes, I think there is still a chance of success."

Aizen adjusted his sitting posture, and the smile on his face became more subtle.

"After all, Shizuya-kun's Zanpakutō, in my opinion... has infinite possibilities."

That's all.

What was Arima Shizuya's answer?

Thinking, the boy finally turned his head and let out a long sigh.

It would be a lie to say that I am not nervous. Before, it was an encounter on a narrow road, but now it is the result of my own choice...

So, do you want to go on?

This is obviously a road full of thorns.

Arima Shizuya's hands couldn't help but clenched slightly, and finally relaxed.

As Aizen said, he doesn't like blood, nor does he like pain - he can't understand the thoughts of a fighting maniac, and he has no interest in some great principles and the so-called battle of consciousness.

But even though I don't like fighting, I still understand that if I don't advance, I will retreat.

Now that he is standing next to Aizen, the road ahead will naturally be rugged to the naked eye.

These things do exist and are not things that will disappear if you look away.

And the so-called talent also needs to be realized before it can show its value.

With his thoughts at this point, Shizuya Arima took a deep breath and slowly raised his head.

The expression on his face has become quite determined.

The answer has appeared in my mind.

"Teacher Aizen, I..."

Five days later.

On a cold moonlit night, Gui Yancheng drank and had fun with his members of the 11th Squadron, and was now on his way back to the team.

Although the location is still within the Seireitei.

But because the store itself is old and has not been moved, it is now a remote place on the edge.

In other words.

It's difficult to provoke the patrols if you start here.

Kiegashiro Kenpachi stopped and stared silently at the figure standing in the distance, staring sideways at him.

After two breaths, he opened his mouth and showed a hearty smile.

"Hey! I've been looking for you for a long time, brat!"

"Yeah, me too."

Grudges need to be settled, the other party wants to cause trouble for you, and you need to find an opportunity for a breakthrough...

Arima Shizuya, who tied up his long hair, lowered his right hand expressionlessly at this moment.

The opponent is a captain-level figure.

There is no room for mercy, and I must go all out.

The location was deliberately chosen, adjusted to perfection, and coupled with a fearless heart.

Arima Shizuya was ready for everything, and finally put his right hand on the handle of the knife at his waist.

"Eat your tail, Gong Yi."
