Bleach: Getting Stronger Starting from Teaching at the Spiritual Arts Academy.

"Does Shikatori-kun still remember the accident that happened during that retreat training course lecture?"

"The spirit body replaced the vial of illusory poison, which caused the unexpected situation during the lecture."

"She underestimates me. A mere poison won't kill me."

"However, this also shows that someone in Soul Society is collecting our spiritual information to create spirit bodies."

"So even if another Tetsuya Asada's spirit were to appear, I wouldn't be surprised at all."

"Is someone collecting spiritual information to create spiritual remains?" July recalled her memories from her past life, and it seemed that something similar might happen in the future.

However, it's too early now. We need to wait until the "soul modification" technology matures before the created spirit remains will have practical value in combat.

Creating the captain's spirit remains now is pointless and has no practical value in combat.

He suddenly realized his situation. Could it be that someone who knew the inside story had started researching his spirit body again after seeing that it could grow?

"Captain Unohana, besides Squad Zero, who else knows that I am the spirit of Bayunzhai?" July asked.

Only the Zero Division should know about the Soul King's shadow; even Shikatori Hakunsai and Unohana Retsu are unaware of it.

However, more people may know about the creation of the remains of the Ba Yun Zhai spirit.

“Don’t worry, Shikato-kun. Apart from the Zero Division, only I and Kiryu Hikifune know about this,” Unohana said.

“That’s true. If the person who secretly created the spirit remains knew about this, they would definitely be very interested in me and would have contacted me long ago.” July nodded.

After checking the pharmacy records, July and Unohana also checked the quantities of medicines together and found no abnormalities in the records.

Unohana took out her communication device and sent a message to Kyoraku Shunsui and Hikifune Kiryu: "I've finished checking here. The anesthetic didn't leak out from the Fourth Division."

The messenger machine transmitted Kiryu's voice: "I'm fine on my end too."

Kyoraku Shunsui also said, "I've found some relevant clues, but... something feels off."

"Records show that Tetsuya Asada purchased the 'Penetration Point' anesthetic at the Shin-O Pharmaceutical Institute yesterday."

Kyoraku Shunsui's complaining voice continued through the communication machine: "Seriously, such a dangerous drug can actually be bought directly from the Shin-O Pharmaceutical Institute!"

“I find this very strange. I will investigate Tetsuya Asada’s movements yesterday and today to see if he has an alibi.”

Unohana frowned: "It seems that Asada Tetsuya will have a hard time clearing his name."

It was Tetsuya Asada who reported this incident. He was the only person present at the scene, making it difficult to find an alibi.

There's so much evidence now that even if Asada Tetsuya didn't do it, it'll be difficult for him to escape unscathed.

Unless, clues pointing to other killers can be found.

July stroked her chin: "Asada Tetsuya wouldn't be so stupid as to leave such obvious evidence, would he..."

July leans towards the suspect being someone else, but with so much evidence, it suggests the killer came prepared, making it extremely difficult to find them.

Unohana sighed softly: "This inference is not enough to exonerate Tetsuya Asada from guilt."

She could already guess what would happen next. With this evidence in front of Chamber 46, Chamber 46 would definitely convict Asada Tetsuya directly.

Chapter 138 Rematch with Unohana

After reviewing the pharmacy records, Unohana led Shikatori Nanatsuki to the mountains outside Seireitei.

The sky was overcast, and a downpour could come at any moment, but this did not stop the two from exchanging sword techniques.

"Let me witness your growth. I've been looking forward to this moment for a long time, Shikato-kun."

Unohana slowly drew her Zanpakuto. Her face was gentle as water, but the aura she exuded was chilling.

July unbuttoned her upper body clothing, and spiritual pressure turbulence instantly erupted from her shoulders and back.

July immediately triggered a state of instant hype.

"Oh~?" Unohana sensed the violent spiritual pressure fluctuations from Nanatsu and smiled slightly. "Looks like I can have more fun today."

She suppressed her spiritual pressure to a level similar to that of July.

As soon as she finished speaking, July's figure disappeared.

--clang!

Unohana held Nanasu in front of her with her sword, the two of them were so close that she could feel Nanasu's breath on her forehead.

“The speed has increased a lot, but it’s still not enough,” Unohana chuckled.

Last time, she underestimated July's "Instant Step Iai" skill and didn't have time to defend. This time, she was on guard and directly blocked July's attack.

July raised her left hand towards the flower of the rabbit.

His actions made Unohana frown, somewhat displeased: "Do we still need to use Hakudo?"

However, in July, two fingers suddenly extended, and arcs of lightning wrapped around them.

Sparks burst forth from the arc of lightning, instantly transforming into crimson flames.

Unohana's eyes narrowed, and as the change occurred at July's fingertips, she turned her blade, knocking July away. Then, she spun around several times at an extremely fast speed, and the blade landed on the golden lightning flames that shot out from her fingertips.

The spiritual pressure blade, enveloped in golden lightning flames, clashed with Unohana's blade, producing a startling sound.

clang!!!

The golden lightning cracked into several pieces, scattering all around, and all the towering trees along the way were cut down.

bang——

More than ten giant trees crashed to the ground, startling countless birds in the forest.

"You've condensed the spiritual pressure at your fingertips, and even enhanced its power with Kido. This is a technique I've never seen before. You're truly delightful... Shikatori-kun..." Unohana's eyes changed slightly, her eyelids drooping slightly, and her pupils revealing an uncontrollable eagerness.

Unohana's sword drooped slightly, and a few drops of blood flowed from between her thumb and forefinger, dripping down the blade onto the ground.

Upon seeing blood in July, she became even more excited.

This is the main reason why he prefers to exchange sword techniques with Unohana rather than Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

Unohana is genuinely enjoying the exchange of swordsmanship, and she diligently suppresses her spiritual pressure, a trait she would never change even if it meant getting injured.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was different. This old man was extremely concerned about his reputation. When sparring, he would say he was suppressing his spiritual pressure, but in reality, if there was any possibility of injury, he would be more ruthless than anyone else.

"There's even more I'd like to show Captain Unohana." July smiled slightly, her body radiating arcs of lightning that intertwined with the turbulent spiritual pressure bursting forth from Shunho.

Instantaneous Roar - Lightning Blade Form!

July's speed increased again, and four afterimages appeared around Unohana, while she stepped forward and thrust out a sword.

Unohana's sword spun once, instantly blocking the swords of the three afterimages, and then the blade landed on the shoulder of the last figure in a flash.

puff-

Blood splattered from July's shoulder, but at the same time, his knife pierced Unohana's body.

Unohana stretched out her left hand and patted the blade, causing July's blade to deflect.

July's blade pierced through Unohana's armpit, tearing only the sleeves of her haori and shihaka outfit, without harming her body.

The two of them took a step back at the same time, creating some distance between them.

“The speed has increased a lot again…” Unohana chuckled.

She reached out and tore off the half-ripped sleeve, revealing her fair arm.

“There’s something even faster.” July ignored the wound on her shoulder, raised her Zanpakuto, and pinched the blade between two fingers.

July's actions further fueled Unohana's interest, and even her voice changed slightly: "A sword-sealing technique, huh—I haven't seen one in many years!"

The next moment, a blade of light imbued with the power of thunder arrived in an instant!

--clang!!!

Unohana was prepared; she held the knife in both hands and blocked the flash of the blade in front of her.

An irresistible force surged from the blade into the tiger's mouth, and the tiger's mouth, which had already been healed by the healing technique, was shattered again by the force.

Immediately afterwards, Unohana's legs were pressed into the mud by tremendous force, carving two muddy grooves in the ground.

Unohana raised her sword, sending the lightning blade flying.

The lightning-fast blade of light slashed towards the sky, cutting a gash in the dark clouds.

A few rays of sunlight pierced through the dark clouds and fell into the woods.

In July, looking intently, he discovered that the flower of the rabbit was no longer in the same place.

The next instant, he saw Unohana's captivating eyes appear before him.

The blade in July's hand disappeared, replaced by waves of water.

The wave-like spray collided instantly with Unohana's attack.

—Clang clang clang!

The continuous clanging of blades echoed.

puff-

A bloodstain appeared on Unohana's abdomen, while more than ten bloodstains appeared on July's body.

As she felt the blade kiss her skin, her smile became even more chilling.

With a kick, she shoved July away, lightly touched the air with the toes of her feet clad in plain white tabi socks, leaped into the air, twisted her waist, spun around in the air, and then slashed down with her Zanpakuto from top to bottom.

bang——

The two swords clashed, and July was knocked to the ground.

Unohana pressed her knee against the lower half of July's body, then gripped the hilt of her sword in reverse and thrust it fiercely into his abdomen.

Just then, Qiyue's spiritual pressure surged, the temperature suddenly rose, and raging flames ignited on the blade and her body.

The body's moisture evaporates rapidly, and the skin quickly becomes dry and cracked.

The lightning arcs on his body intertwined with the crimson flames, and the flames, illuminated by the lightning, transformed into golden flames!

The intense heat emanating from his body caused the surrounding air to become somewhat distorted.

Thunder and fire spread like wildfire!

He is not yet able to enter this state while in the instantaneous state, but the explosive power of "Thunderfire Spreads" is extremely strong, even stronger than that of "Instantaneous Thunder Cutter".
