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

Even though he knew it, Aizen had no need to refuse.

But at this moment, after truly hearing the other party's answer, Arima Shizuya still couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you Aizen-sensei for your understanding."

"Don't be so nervous, Jingya-kun. I just made a decision that all teachers would make."

After settling Arima Shizuya's concerns, Aizen simply adjusted the atmosphere and took the topic to the next stage.

"Okay, let's put aside the things that are too important for the future. Jingya-kun, actually I came to you today because there are some things I want to discuss."

It wasn't often that the prison master took the initiative to talk to him, and Arima Shizuya himself was willing to help him.

At this moment, he nodded and replied.

"That's what you hear."

"It's related to Bengyu."

The approach of getting straight to the point is quite straightforward, completely unlike what Aizen would normally do.

But considering that this time I was facing an acquaintance, I omitted this slightly redundant behavior.

"Bengyu..."

Arima Shizuya blinked and showed a thoughtful expression.

Ever since he collected the Soul King's fingertip fragments from Rangiku's body last time at Rukongai, Aizen seemed to have temporarily put aside related research.

So have you picked it up again recently?

"To be honest, Jingya-kun, I have actually been to Rukongai several times in the past few days. I originally wanted to feed it my soul to see if I could induce Bengyu's reaction."

Did he quietly kill a lot of people again?

It can only be said that although he is a little emotional, but in terms of Arima Shizuya's current position, he can't say anything else...

"So, did Aizen-sensei make any new discoveries?"

The other person chuckled, adjusted his glasses, and shook his head calmly.

"No, in fact, there has been no progress at all in this area. There is still no clear feedback from Bengyu, and research on it has temporarily stalled at this stage."

"...?"

So what are you going to talk to me about?

"However, these few days of travel are not fruitless."

As he spoke, Aizen groped for a while in his arms, and then took out a familiar long transparent bottle.

The faint luster of the jade is contained in it, and it is constantly enlarging in Aizen's pupils, blending with its black background...

It turned into a mysterious light blue.

"Things turned around just three days ago."

"That day, as usual, I harvested thirteen souls that were qualified to become the God of Death and fed them to Bengyu. As for the result that there is still no response..."

"Even like me, I feel a little lonely."

"But when I was about to leave, I saw a Hollow suddenly appeared."

"It still has the limbs of a wandering soul in its mouth. It is obviously an evil individual that has been wandering around the area recently."

"I have no interest in it, so naturally I don't care too much."

"But at that moment, Jingya-kun, an unrealistic idea suddenly emerged in my mind."

Playing with the utensil in his hand, Aizen's tone contained a bit of expectation.

"If the energy of the void is injected into the spirit body and the two come into contact with each other, what changes will occur?"

Arima Shizuo who was nearby also heard this.

I couldn't help but let out a long sigh in my heart - what is supposed to come will still come, and when you get tired of playing with people, you will choose to adjust your goals...

The prison master still focused on Xu.

"Jingya-kun, aren't you curious? As our enemy of Death, what is the nature of the power possessed by Kyon?"

Not at all.

But saying this is obviously disappointing.

Arima Shizuo could only speak in a flattering tone.

"A little...a little bit."

"Haha, you are indeed my disciple. This desire for knowledge is also a necessity in life, and must not be discarded."

He walked around from behind the desk and came to the opposite side of Arima Shizuya.

"Let's sort it out again from the beginning."

"The existence of the Soul Society itself is the place where spirit bodies return. The spirit bodies born here are like this, and those who are affected by various reasons other than Hollow and cause physical death will also come here."

"According to this theory, there is no doubt that the virtual existence itself is something that exists like the poison of the world. When swallowed by it, the spiritual body will be forced to merge with it and become one."

"Shingya-kun should be able to understand everything so far, right?"

Seeing Aizen sitting on the guest chair, Arima Shizu also filled a cup of new tea for him.

And nodded in reply.

"Well, there is no problem. These are all relevant contents taught in the Spiritual Arts Academy."

In other words, what Aizen just said is also the consensus of the Shinigami in Soul Society.

Taking a sip of warm tea, Aizen said softly.

"Very good, then continue to tidy up."

"Jing Yejun, there are four types of Death God skills. You should know the same thing, right? If you can cultivate it to the extreme, its power will be self-evident."

"But... Shizuya-kun. If you have reached the pinnacle of the four skills, what is the next direction?"

Arima Shizuya's expression suddenly became strange.

It can be said that he is not surprised at all that the other party can ask such a question. But the problem is that the person involved doesn’t know how to answer.

I don’t know, prison master.

My four scores are just over 60 points.

I can't talk to a big guy who has already scored full marks...

Seemingly sensing Arima Shizuya's embarrassment, Aizen pondered for a moment and said.

"Sorry, I seem to have said something offensive. Let's skip this topic for now."

"In short... Shizuya-kun, what I want to confirm is actually very simple."

"I want to find an opportunity to break the shackles brought by the four major items and guide the god of death to a higher level."

"Yes, that's it... I want to find the source of the breakthrough."

Aizen's tone was normal, but his expression was a little excited, which was rare.

"Hollows can devour everything, are ruthless, and brutal. Only a very small number of individuals can have human-like emotions and thinking abilities."

"And I have actually tried several times to bring people's souls into contact with Hollows. Unfortunately... all these experiments have failed without exception."

"It seems that ordinary weak spirits can't withstand this level of torture at all."

"So..."

Aizen pushed his glasses, and the corners of his mouth had a tendency to rise.

"Perhaps using some powerful spirits as experimental subjects will change the success rate?"

"It's an interesting idea, Shizuya-kun."

In fact.

"I also have a relatively complete plan."

"But before that, we still need to make some reasonable preparations."
