Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

"Sōsuke! If you wish to wear his crown, you must bear its weight!"

"The trials you are about to endure have only just begun..."

Araki, seeing Aizen's utter despair, offered words of comfort with a smile.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Aizen inexplicably felt as if Araki had seen through his inner thoughts.

"Therefore, let's begin physical training now!"

"Defend against my attacks with all your might, Sousuke!"

Before Aizen could think further, Araki had already assumed a boxing stance.

"It's probably just my imagination!"

Upon hearing this, Aizen gave a friendly smile.

My teacher seems to be a complete idiot, so strong it's almost unbelievable!

"Oh!"

As Aizen was thinking this, he was sent flying into the sky by Araki's punch amidst a sonic boom.

"And he's a guy who has absolutely no pity for his own disciple!"

Aizen flew through the sky, enduring the pain on his face, and pondered in his heart.

In this world, even Hollows possess emotions and desires, and when faced with death, they too experience an instinctive fear! Some Hollows find it difficult to harm their weaker counterparts, showing pity, but Araki did not…

"Ola Ola Ola..."

As Aizen thought this, looking at the sky filled with countless fist shadows, a sense of relief appeared in his eyes.

"I will change this damned world!"

Aizen spoke to himself in this way.

"boom!"

The next second, Aizen was engulfed by the countless fist shadows unleashed by Araki.

Chapter 141 Aizen: Good news, Araki has a weakness! Bad

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

Araki stopped teaching Aizen right on time.

"I lost!"

Aizen lay on the ruins, his eyes vacant, gazing blankly at the azure sky. At this moment, Aizen looked as if Araki had pushed him to his absolute limit.

Do you realize your own weakness?!

Araki looked at the disoriented Aizen and asked with a smile.

"understood!"

After hearing what Araki said, Aizen immediately nodded.

"Good to know! Remember your weaknesses, cherish them while they are present, and then strive to climb upwards!"

"Sousuke! In my opinion, you have the potential to reach the top..."

Araki looked at the limp Aizen Sousuke, a faint smile appearing on his lips, and spoke softly.

"It seems that you really think highly of me, Araki-sensei!"

After hearing Araki's words, Aizen couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Aizen wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Araki, his teacher, had more confidence in his talent than he did!

That's all for today~

"Remember to come to the 'First Division' captain's office at the same time tomorrow."

Araki said this and then turned to leave.

Four hours of training from 1 PM to 5 PM is more than enough for Aizen now! The remaining time is for Aizen to explore and train on his own...

"Araki-sensei..."

Just as Araki was about to leave, Aizen, who had been knocked to the ground by Araki's flurry of punches, gritted his teeth and overcame the pain in his body with great willpower! He forced his exhausted body to stand up and called out to Araki, who was about to leave.

"Hmm?! Sousuke, is there anything else?"

Araki raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing Aizen's voice, then turned around gently to look at Aizen.

"Araki-sensei, please wait a moment! Before you leave, I have some questions that I need your help with! I hope you can tell me what those abilities you just used on me were!"

"Although I am not very talented, I have read quite a few books! However, the techniques you just used are ones that I have never seen before, either in the textbooks of the 'True Central Spiritual Arts Academy' or in the library of the 'Spiritual Arts Academy'!"

Aizen watched Araki, who was about to leave, and asked him the question that had been bothering him.

"Oh? You mean 'Instantaneous Roar' and the 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' that I just used?!"

After listening to Aizen's words, Araki asked Aizen a question.

"Exactly."

Although Aizen didn't know the specific names of the techniques Araki had used on him before, he could roughly deduce from Araki's expression that the two techniques Araki had mentioned were the same two techniques Araki had used to beat him up before.

"How should I put it?!"

"I can teach you 'Instant Hurricane,' but 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Palm' is honestly a bit troublesome."

Araki was now in a difficult situation.

"Teacher Araki, is there anything wrong with you simply handing over the 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' to me without any cost? If so, then let's leave it at that for now..."

Upon hearing Araki's words, Aizen's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He then feigned reluctance to trouble his master and began to speak to Araki. However, the disappointment in Aizen's tone was undisguised; anyone could hear the resentment in his heart!

"Haha, it's not for that reason!"

"But Aizen, your body simply can't learn this 'Thousand Mile Heavenly Palm'!"

"To learn the 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Palm,' one crucial factor is that you need a body that has been strengthened by the power of the 'Soul King,' just like the members of the 'Zero Squad'! Your ordinary Shinigami spirit body cannot bear this power; it is still too powerful for you!"

Araki smiled slightly after hearing Aizen's words.

As Aizen's teacher, he could obviously see through Aizen's little tricks, but he was too lazy to expose them!

Aizen is still too young. He's as inexperienced as a piece of tofu when he does things, lacking any real skill...

Besides, Araki really didn't mean to deceive Aizen...

The 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' is powerful, reaching heights that ordinary Grim Reapers cannot attain!

However, the strength of the 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' is directly proportional to its difficulty in learning! One of the keys to mastering this 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' is that the body must be composed of 'King Keys'! In other words, this 'Thousand-Mile Heaven-Piercing Palm' is an ability that only members of the 'Zero Squad' can potentially learn…

At the same time, not all members of the Zero Division can learn this move. At least so far, only Araki has learned this move from the monk in the entire Zero Division. The others are still lacking and can never grasp the key trick! So it's not that Araki doesn't want to teach Aizen, it's that even if Araki did, Aizen wouldn't be able to learn it.

"Tell me, is the 'Thousand-Mile Sky-Piercing Palm' you just used something that only the members of the 'Zero Squad' who have had their bodies strengthened by the 'Spirit King' can learn?!"

"If that's the case, then Araki-sensei, wouldn't you also be a member of the 'Zero Squad'?!"

After hearing Araki's words, Aizen immediately realized something and asked Araki in a puzzled tone.

"Exactly."

Araki smiled slightly after hearing Aizen's words.

"That's why I told you before that the strength of the 'Zero Squad' members is far greater than that of the entire 'Gotei 13' excluding me! Because your teacher, I, am a member of the royal family's secret service..."

Araki looked at Aizen and spoke earnestly.

"No wonder..."

After hearing Araki's words, Aizen nodded slightly.

If the members of this so-called 'Zero Squad' are all monsters like Araki, then the 'Gotei 13' really can't handle them! Because those royal agents are no longer just Shinigami, but beings who have surpassed Shinigami with the help of the 'Soul King'.

"I've written down the analysis of the abilities 'Instant Roar' and 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Palm' in this notebook. If you're really interested in these two abilities, you can try practicing them in your spare time! However, in my opinion, putting aside the 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Palm,' which you're unlikely to master, 'Instant Roar' seems somewhat useless to you! Anyway, it's up to you to decide~"

Araki recorded all the training methods for the abilities 'Instant Hurricane' and 'Thousand Mile Heaven Palm' that he had in his mind in a small booklet, and threw the booklet directly at Aizen.

"This is……"

Aizen's pupils widened in shock as he watched Araki condense a small booklet from the spiritual particles in the air with a wave of his hand.

"Thank you, Araki-sensei. I will do my best..."

Aizen calmly took the notebook from Araki's hand.

Immediately afterward, Aizen thought to himself, "If I'm not mistaken, this move of Araki-sensei is not something that ordinary Shinigami like us can control, right?!"

"If I remember correctly, according to the books and materials I found in the library of the 'Spiritual Arts Academy', only the legendary Quincy and some special spiritual ability users (Fullbringers) in the present world can directly manipulate the spiritual particles in the atmosphere for their own use! It seems that my master is hiding a huge secret!"

Based on the information he had read in the 'Spiritual Arts Academy' library, Aizen deduced the hidden meaning behind Araki's use of that ability.

"It's so noisy!"

"If only Aizen could share some of his thoughts with that kid Zaraki."

On the other side, Araki, who was striding forward, was getting a headache from the inner thoughts of Aizen behind him.

In Araki's view, among all his disciples, the two most talented were Aizen and Zaraki. However, Aizen and Zaraki, the most talented among his disciples, were actually two extremes.

Aizen's mind is a complete mess, he's got so many dirty tricks up his sleeve! Before he even does something, he's already thought through every possible consequence! His brain is always in a high-powered state, constantly scheming and plotting, he's practically determined to outmaneuver everyone!

Zaraki is the complete opposite of Aizen. Zaraki has no cunning at all. All he thinks about is eating, drinking, sleeping, and fighting. He's so boring!

If Aizen and Zaraki could just share their thoughts a little more evenly, then the two of them would probably be perfect!

"Ugh……"

Thinking of this, Araki couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

It's a pity, geniuses are always so unique! Aizen Sousuke is one, and that brat Zaraki is another, they are all one-of-a-kind 'rough gems' in this 'Soul Society'.

Now it's up to this master craftsman to refine it...

“Even a ‘god’ has weaknesses. I don’t believe that Araki-sensei has no weaknesses at all…”

Just as Araki strode forward, Aizen's inner voice rang out once again.
