Chapter 187 Future Vice Captain
"Beat me?"

Aize, who was originally depressed, suddenly became interested when he heard what Abarai Renji said.

Not to mention him, even the surrounding onlookers looked at Abarai Renji in surprise, thinking that this man was too confident and arrogant.

They have won 17 consecutive games without any shame or breathlessness!
Defeat others?

You beat the fucking hammer!

While everyone around him was disdainful of this, Aize didn't think too much about it.

He knew that Abarai Renji would achieve great things in the future, so he joined the 11th Division shortly after graduation and became a member of the 11th Division.

You know, the 11th Division is the combat unit of the Gotei 13, and it is full of battle maniacs. The strength of the soldiers is generally stronger than that of the other twelve divisions, especially the captain of the 11th Division, Kenpachi Zaraki, who, like him, is from the 80th district of Kitarurukongai. His potential is terrifying. In terms of potential alone, he can be said to be second only to the protagonist of the original work, and his future is limitless.

The fact that Abarai Renji was able to enter the 11th Division is enough to prove that his fighting ability is not bad, not to mention that he will later transfer to the 6th Division and become its vice-captain. In the end, he even possesses the strength of a captain and becomes one of the best in Soul Society.

His performance in the Kidō class was relatively poor because he was really not very good at it.

But it’s different in kendo.

If nothing unexpected happens, in terms of kendo skills, Abarai Renji should be the strongest among this year's freshmen.

Unfortunately, as I said before, Aize is a cheating player.

"I am coming!"

Abarai Renji let out a loud shout, holding the wooden sword in a middle position, and suddenly attacked Aize.

He walked very quickly and had considerable brute force. When he chopped down the wooden sword in his hand, the whistling sound was so sharp that it almost broke through the air, causing many people to look surprised.

"Snapped!"

Aize stood still, holding the wooden sword in one hand, and swung it casually. With a crisp sound of collision, the wooden sword that Abarai Renci had chopped down heavily was bounced away by him.

"It's not over yet!"

Abarai Renji was not discouraged. After a low roar, he rushed forward again, swung with the wooden sword, and a whistling wind was stirred up.

“Snap!” “Snap!” “Snap!” “Snap!”…

The crisp sound of collision suddenly rang out continuously, and the sound of two wooden swords colliding with each other echoed violently in the kendo field.

Abarai Renji launched continuous attacks with astonishing momentum, wielding the wooden sword in his hand with great force, constantly slashing at Aize from all angles. His attacks were so fast and fierce that it was hard to keep up.

However, facing such a quick and urgent attack, Aize just stood there, wielding the wooden sword with one hand, calmly deflecting Abarai Renji's attacks one after another. Not a single sword could penetrate his defense and touch his body.

"hateful!"

Abarai Renji's strength was not weak, but his patience was obviously insufficient. Seeing that he had been attacking without success for a long time, an obvious look of anxiety appeared on his face, so that he swung his sword faster and his attack became much stronger.

However, facing such a Abarai Renji, Aize shook his head.

"You are too impatient."

Aize deflected the wooden sword that was heading for his forehead with a casual strike and spoke slowly.

"Although the offensive power has become stronger, your haste has not only made the sword's movements easier to see through, but also made the intention of the attack more obvious. It will also cause disadvantages such as excessive loss of physical strength, which is really not advisable in battle."

Having said that, Aize began to turn defense into offense.

He took a step forward, and the distance between him and Abarai Renji was shortened a lot. The wooden sword in his hand also slashed out with its sharpness, rubbing against the air, and hit Abarai Renji's wooden sword which was just halfway down with the posture of reverse cassock slash.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound of collision appeared, but it was no longer continuous. Instead, there was only one sound, loud and clear.

The wooden sword that Abarai Renji was swinging halfway through was suddenly bounced back heavily and almost fell out of his hand.

This attack also caused Abarai Renji's body to lean back greatly, leaving the front of his body wide open, and his wooden sword was bounced back and upward, making it impossible to withdraw it.

“Shit…!?”

Renji Abarai was shocked.

Ai Ze swung the reverse kasaya slash to the end, but it came back and hit Abarai Renji's shoulder with the forward kasaya slash posture.

"Humph!"

Abarai Renji squatted down in pain, and the wooden sword in his hand slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.

He subconsciously raised his head and immediately saw Aize standing in front of him, with the wooden sword in his hand pointing at him, with the tip of the sword less than twenty centimeters away from his face.

"Concession."

Aize smiled faintly and said what he had said seventeen times before.

"……I lost."

Abarai Renji was stunned for a long time, and then he spoke dejectedly, admitting his failure with difficulty.

The students around him finally breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting.

"I still lost after all."

"That's the 18th consecutive win."

"I was so scared. I thought that guy could really win."

"How is that possible? Didn't you see that super genius took all of that guy's attacks without even moving?" "Yeah, anyone with a discerning eye can see that there's no way that guy can win."

"But he is very strong. So far, no one who has played has been able to last more than ten seconds, but he has lasted almost a minute."

"Wasn't he the one who performed the worst in the Kidō class? I didn't expect him to perform so well in the Kendo class..."

"Indeed, it's not that he is too weak, but that our super genius is too strong."

Everyone continued to talk, and the look they gave Abarai Renji was no longer so disdainful, but more of a recognition.

Unfortunately, Abarai Renji did not notice it and was still immersed in regret.

…………

Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy, atrium.

After the kendo class in the afternoon, Abarai Renji came here, found a corner, and started swinging his sword desperately at a tree.

“Snap!” “Snap!” “Snap!” “Snap!”…

The sound of the wooden sword hitting the trees continued to ring out, but Abarai Renji swung it faster and faster, hitting the tree trunks so hard that the bark fell off and wood chips flew everywhere.

"hateful!"

As the last blow hit the barkless tree trunk, Abarai Renji cursed.

At this moment, a rather serious voice sounded behind Abarai Renji.

"What are you doing here, idiot Renji!"

Hearing this voice, Abarai Renji came to his senses, turned around and looked behind him.

There, a petite girl appeared out of nowhere.

The girl has short black hair with bangs hanging in front of her forehead. She has a baby-like face, but her expression is serious and old-fashioned.

"…Why are you here, Rukia?"

Abarai Renji spoke in a bad mood.

"I should be the one saying this, right? Don't answer a question with a question!"

The girl named Rukia frowned, put her hands on her hips, and her serious face was full of dissatisfaction.

If someone spoke to Abarai Renji with such an attitude, he would have been unhappy a long time ago.

But the girl in front of me is different.

Rukia, this is Abarai Renji’s childhood sweetheart.

The two knew each other many years ago and grew up together in the 78th District of Minami-Ryukon Street, where the public security was poor. They are partners and family members who have lived together until now.

In order to get a better living environment, the two decided to come to Soul Society together, enroll in the Shinō Academy, and become Shinigami.

Therefore, the two of them entered the Maou Spiritual Academy together. Although they were both freshmen, their relationship was not comparable to that of classmates who had just met.

At this time, facing Rukia's questioning, Abarai Renji did not answer, but responded with silence.

"What's wrong with you?" Rukia frowned deeper and deeper, and asked, "Are you being bullied by your classmates?"

"Me? Being bullied?" Abarai Renji retorted, saying with disdain: "With their strength, they are not capable of bullying me."

"Then tell me, why are you hiding here alone?" Rukia said dissatisfiedly: "You have joined the first class, what are you unhappy about?"

Although the two entered the school together, due to their talents, Abarai Renji was selected into the elite class one, while Rukia entered the class two and was separated from Abarai Renji.

It's not that Rukia's talent is bad. In fact, Rukia's spiritual power is very high, which is not much inferior to Abarai Renji, and it may even be higher. However, Abarai Renji's talent in fighting exceeds that of Rukia, especially in kendo. Rukia was considered to have no talent in kendo, so she had to miss Class One and entered Class Two.

Rukia herself was actually very unhappy about this matter.

After all, she was originally a leader among her friends, and Abarai Renci was just her younger brother. Now that her younger brother has entered the elite class, she was not selected. This is too embarrassing.

But Abarai Renji is her partner, and Rukia is still very worried about his condition, but she doesn't show it, so she can only ask him in this way.

"…What's there to be happy about?"

Abarai Renji didn't know if he noticed Rukia's concern, and he said it in a somewhat depressed tone.

"My performance in the Kidō class was terrible. Everyone in the class performed better than me, but I was beaten to a pulp in the Kendo class. What's so good about this?"

Hearing this, Rukia was stunned.

"You lost to someone in the kendo class?" Rukia asked in surprise, "Who? So good?"

"Who else could it be?" Abarai Renji continued swinging his sword at the tree, saying, "The legendary super genius."

Rukia was stunned again and was shocked.

"It was him?" Rukia asked in surprise, "Did you fight him?"

"That's right." Abarai Renji said unwillingly: "He is really strong. I am no match for him at all."

Rukia was silent for a moment.
