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

"It definitely wasn't me who triggered it~" Kisuke Urahara raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, looking at the frog Grim Reaper with a gloating expression. "Bukyuu...you didn't bring something unclean in here, did you?"

The invisible wall of spiritual particles had appeared, turned red, and marked beneath the frog-like Grim Reaper.

At this moment, the shadow slowly rose and condensed into the shape of July.

"Urahara-kun, that's so impolite! I'm not some unclean thing!" July laughed.

July could have disappeared into the shadows so they couldn't find him, but he chose to reveal himself anyway.

Frog Reaper is a researcher at the Kiryu Laboratory and has access to its key technologies. July believes that keeping him here is very dangerous.

Therefore, in July, he chose to reveal himself and expose him.

The Frog Reaper's face darkened; he had actually been followed by Shikari Nanatsuki!

Moreover, he had absolutely no idea when Shikagiri Nanatsuki had started stalking him!

Chapter 142 Exposed

The appearance of July surprised everyone; none of them expected that the person who triggered the laboratory alarm would be Shikagiri Nanatsu.

Bukyuu's expression changed drastically. Shikagiri Nanatsuki wouldn't have followed him for no reason, especially not at the time when he was collecting Shikagiri Nanatsuki's spiritual pressure.

There is no doubt that he has been exposed.

Biumu immediately pulled a sphere from his body and threw it out. He then turned towards the elevator, which was the only exit from the laboratory. If he wanted to escape, he had to take the elevator.

The sphere thrown by Bianzhou cracked in mid-air, exploding into a cloud of white smoke.

The cloud of smoke was actually a cloud of spiritual glue floating in the air. After it spread to the people, it stuck them to the ground.

However, just as Bianzhou turned to run away, he discovered that he could no longer lift his legs.

Looking down, he saw that his legs were entangled in the shadows on the ground.

"Let's stay," July said slowly.

He had anticipated Bulu's actions and had already inserted his Zanpakuto into the shadow, using the shadow to bind and prevent Bulu from escaping.

"It seems something has happened that I don't know about."

Kiryuu's spiritual pressure surged, shaking away the floating spiritual particles in the air. He looked at Bukyuu and Shikatoki with a probing gaze.

July explained, “Captain Hikifune, I ran into ‘Captain Kyoraku’ and ‘Captain Ukitake’ on the road, but their behavior was a bit suspicious, so I followed them.”

"I learned from their conversation that they were actually the remains of the 'Kyoto Band Captain' and the 'Ukitake Captain'!"

"And we also witnessed them handing over some of the spiritual pressure they had collected to this Mr. Bukyuu."

Kiryuu's eyes narrowed, and he turned to look at Bukyuu: "Then we need to check him out properly. Bukyuu, please release your spiritual pressure."

It is impossible to distinguish between a spirit skeleton and an ordinary spirit body with the naked eye. The simplest way is to test the spiritual pressure intensity. The spiritual pressure intensity of a spirit skeleton is far inferior to that of the original spirit body.

“No need for testing, I am indeed a spirit corpse.” Knowing that he had no chance of escaping, Bian Zhou grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and said, “Captain Yezhou, thank you for your care and guidance. I hope we can meet again in Hell.”

After Bizhou finished speaking, his eyes, which had no eyelids, widened even more.

His already large size quickly expanded.

"Oh no!" Kisuke Urahara's expression changed.

bang——

Biumu's body exploded, disintegrating into spiritual particles that dissipated in the air.

"It really is a spirit remains... It seems that the real Buluo is in grave danger." Yizhou Tongsheng sighed softly.

When Buluo's body expanded and exploded, his spiritual pressure was fully revealed, completely different from the original Buluo.

"The spirit remains of Bukuri Province actually possess such intelligence?" Kiryuu quickly realized a problem and turned to Nanatsuki to ask, "Shikatori-kun, did the 'Captain Kyoraku' and 'Captain Ukitake' you saw also possess such intelligence?"

Before the spirit skeleton technology was sealed away, she and Shutora Senjumaru were the project leaders of the "Captain Instrumentality Project," so they naturally knew very well what the spirit skeletons created using the spirit skeleton technology looked like.

The spirit remains produced by the current spirit remains technology can only be evaluated as defective products. Their minds are incomplete, their spiritual pressure cannot grow, and they do not meet the standards for use.

July nodded: "I heard some news from them. Their spirit body technology seems to have been iterated and the mental problem has been solved."

"It seems that the person behind this is not simple." Kiryuu understood the difficulty of the spirit skeleton technology; achieving this level was not easy.

After thinking for a moment, Kiryuki continued, "I didn't expect that a spirit corpse would be mixed in with the laboratory. It seems that the laboratory's protection system needs to be upgraded."

"Thanks to Shikato-kun for stumbling upon their secret, otherwise it might have caused extremely serious harm to the 13th Division in the future."

"The spirits of 'Captain Kyoraku' and 'Captain Ukitake' cannot be allowed to escape... There may be even more spirits mixed in with Seireitei."

"Seireitei needs a thorough investigation!"

Kiryu took out his communication device and notified the captains and vice-captains of each squad to assemble urgently at the First Squad.

She didn't mention this in the messenger system, lest a vice-captain be quietly replaced like Bianzhou.

"Kisuke, create an instrument that can distinguish spirit remains as soon as possible." Kiryu patted Kisuke Urahara on the shoulder, his heavy captain-level spiritual pressure pressing down on him.

"Oh dear, I'm being suspected now~" Kisuke Urahara scratched his face.

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Kiryu personally verified his identity.

“After all, you just came in with the spirit body of Buluo…” Kiryu said helplessly, “We can’t distinguish between the spirit body and the original body with the naked eye or spiritual sense, so this is the only way.”

"I understand, just in case," Kisuke Urahara said understandingly.

Kisuke Urahara glanced at Nanatsu Shikatori. He had recently noticed some unusual things about "Bukyuu," which made him suspicious of "Bukyuu."

He thought that "Biaozhou" was secretly taking advantage of his status as a researcher to betray the interests of the laboratory, but he never expected that "Biaozhou" was actually a spirit in disguise.

"Bulu's" researcher status allowed him to access many resources and review the laboratory's technical data. If Shichiru hadn't discovered "Bulu's" true identity and allowed him to continue lurking in the laboratory, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

After leaving the laboratory, Kiryu and Nanatsuki went directly to the First Division's council room.

The other captains and vice-captains didn't delay either; they all put down what they were doing and assembled in the First Division.

Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro stepped through the door: "Captain Hikifune, is something urgent that you called us over in such a hurry?"

Suddenly, Kiryu reached out and placed his hands on the shoulders of Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro, his spiritual pressure surging within him.

At the same time, Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro subconsciously used their spiritual pressure to resist Hikifune Kiryu's spiritual pressure.

"Hey, Captain Hikifune, we don't think we've offended you, have we?" Kyoraku Shunsui was confused and didn't know why Hikifune Kiryu had suddenly made a move.

“I’m sorry, but this is a last resort,” Kiryu explained. “It’s because Shikatori discovered that the spirits of Captain Kyoraku and Captain Ukitake were moving around inside Seireitei, and since you came together, I had to be more cautious.”

"A spirit body?"

Everyone looked puzzled. The term was unfamiliar to the vice-captain, but the captains were aware of the "Captain Instrumentality Project" that Seireitei had once promoted.

"Wasn't the 'Captain's Instrumentality Project' terminated? I remember the Spirit Remains technology was also sealed away!" Kuchiki Ginryo asked.

Chapter 143 Investigation

Kiryuki said, "That's true. There's no longer any research on spirit skeleton technology in my laboratory."

"But today, Shikatori-kun stumbled upon the activities of the Kyoraku Captain and Ukitake Captain's spirits within the Seireitei."

"Not only that, he also exposed the remains of a researcher who was lurking in my laboratory."

"Although the spirit body had already destroyed itself, it confirmed to me that it was indeed a spirit body."

Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro were both surprised that someone had secretly collected their spiritual pressure to create their spirit remains.

"Is someone using our spiritual pressure to create spirit remains...? Who could it be?"

Kyoraku Shunsui immediately thought of Tsunayoshi Tokina, but considering that Tsunayoshi Tokina was still imprisoned in the First Division, he had to rule him out.

"Isn't it said that the spirit skeleton technology has major flaws? Why are people still creating spirit skeletons?" Kuchiki Ginryo frowned, pondering the purpose of creating spirit skeletons.

“Their spirit body technology has been iterated, solving the mental problem. If they continue researching, they might even be able to solve the problem of their spiritual pressure not being able to grow. I suspect there may be more spirit bodies mixed in with the 13th Division, which is why I summoned everyone here,” Kiryu Hikifune said.

Kiryuki's words stirred up a storm in the council room.

One of the main reasons the 46th Chamber ordered the sealing of the spirit remains technology was because they were afraid of it.

They fear that if this technology continues to develop, it could actually create spirit remains that are no different from the original body.

By then, even if they were secretly replaced with spirit remains, it would be very difficult for anyone to discover it!

“Perhaps the assassination of the executive captain is also related to the spirit remains. If this was done by the spirit remains of Tetsuya Asada, then they could also create that kind of evidence,” Unohana said.

"Someone actually used spirit remains to commit evil deeds, and even replaced the members of the Thirteenth Division. This is intolerable!" Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said.

Then, an overwhelming spiritual pressure, like Mount Tai pressing down, instantly enveloped the entire council room.

Everyone in the council room changed their expressions slightly, and they all used their own spiritual pressure to resist this terrifying spiritual pressure.

The terrifying spiritual pressure didn't last long, disappearing after only a few breaths.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni continued, "There are no spirit remains mixed in here. Go back and check all the Shinigami in your respective squads!"

"Yes!" the captains and vice-captains responded in unison.

The captains and vice-captains did not linger at the First Division, but returned to their respective divisions to verify the identities of the Shinigami.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni looked at Shikatri Nanatsuki with admiration: "You discovered the anomaly of the spirit body in time and averted a crisis that had not yet erupted... You deserve praise."

"Alright... I'll teach you a Kido technique—Hado No. 96: One-Sword Fire Burial."

"This demonic technique is extremely powerful, but the prerequisite for using it is to burn one's own body."

"I see that you are good at returning to the Dao. Even if you use the One-Sword Cremation technique, you have a good chance of surviving. You can use this move as a trump card when you fight to the death."

"Thank you for your guidance, Captain!" July was overjoyed, never expecting that the spirit corpse incident would bring him such an unexpected gain.

One-Sword Cremation is arguably one of the most powerful Hado techniques. After learning this Hado, one will have one more trump card.

After the captains and vice-captains returned to their respective squads, they began to investigate all the Shinigami within their squads.

As it turned out, they actually discovered the remains of six spirits hiding in the Gotei 13. Unfortunately, like "Bukshu," they destroyed themselves immediately after being discovered.

The remains of Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro were the same; after being stopped by Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro, they destroyed themselves, leaving no chance for anyone to catch them.

Due to the appearance of the remains, doubts arose regarding the evidence in the assassination case of the executive captain, and Asada Tetsuya was not sentenced but was temporarily detained in the prison team.

......

a few days later.

A series of urgent knocks broke the tranquility of the Shikatori Dojo.

"Coming, coming..." Cilantro from Mochi City replied as she hurriedly ran out of the yard.

She opened the door and saw a small, cute, black-haired girl standing in front of her, with an elderly woman on her back.

“It’s Lisa… Ah—Grandma Jiang, what’s wrong?” Kana Mochishiro recognized the two neighbors from the Shikari Dojo and her tone was full of concern.

"Sister Cilantro, Grandma Jiang is sick and hasn't eaten for days..." Little Lisa, the black-haired girl, said anxiously, tears welling in her eyes.

"Come in quickly, I'm going to find the teacher!" said Cilantro from Zhicheng as she helped Grandma Jiang into the yard.

July had already noticed the commotion and came out of the room.

“Little Lisa, let me see Grandma Jiang,” July said gently.

But when he saw Grandma Jiang's condition, he couldn't help but frown.

Grandma Jiang's body was already exhausted, a sign that her spirit was about to depart this world.

“Little Lisa...Grandma Jiang’s body can no longer hold on…” July sighed softly.

Lisa immediately burst into tears. Grandma Jiang had always been very kind to her, so when she heard that Grandma Jiang was dying, she couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

After carefully considering her words, July comforted her, saying, "Death is not the end. Kind souls like Granny Jiang will be reincarnated in this world."

Cilantro Mochi stepped forward, ruffled Lisa's hair, hugged her, and gently comforted her.

Lisa burst into tears in Kana Mochi's arms, her tears quickly soaking Kana Mochi's clothes.

July's judgment was accurate; Grandma Jiang passed away peacefully two hours later.

He went to the commercial street to order a coffin and, together with Lisa, buried Grandma Jiang in the forest behind the mountain.

Looking at the distraught Lisa, July softly suggested, "Little Lisa, why don't you stay at the Shikatori Dojo from now on?"

Lisa is about the same age as Kotetsu Isane, and her spiritual pressure has also increased recently. With her current spiritual pressure, it is not impossible for her to enter the Spirit Arts Academy for further study.

However, it is not the enrollment season for the Spirit Arts Academy right now, so in July, she is planned to first solidify her foundation at the Shikato Dojo.
