The only player in the world of Bleach

"I need to inform the captain about this, and then they will report it to the First Division. We should have a result by this evening... although there might be some discrepancies, the timeframe should be roughly the same."

Half a month has passed.

This should be the gap between the Vietnam War and the war.

"Giving both sides enough time to prepare and do their best to get themselves into top condition is also to ensure that neither side has any excuses..."

Honestly.

"I'm still a little worried."

Aizen Sousuke spoke as if in a dream.

"After all, the opponent is a captain-level figure. His level after Bankai may be limited, but it's not a sure thing... But since Matsushita-kun is so determined, I won't say anything more."

"Thank you for your understanding, Aizen-sensei."

"So... is there anything I can do to help?"

Having made his decision, Aizen Sousuke naturally switched his 'perspective' and 'stance'.

As an ally of Yusuke Matsushita, providing additional training to the individual during these two weeks is the best option.

Aizen Sousuke pointed to himself and said in a gentle tone.

"Do you need me to give you some more intensive training?"

There's nothing wrong with the suggestion itself.

But Matsushita Yusuke clearly had other ideas… He pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said.

"I do need Aizen-sensei's help, but not special training... Could you please help me contact some other Shinigami?"

Without an immediate response, Aizen Sousuke lowered his gaze, a thoughtful expression on his face.

What are the specific requirements?

"Regardless of strength, as long as they are the owners of elemental Zanpakuto."

Yusuke Matsushita raised his right hand, made a clenching and unclenching motion, and added with a smile.

"It is indeed quite difficult for me to reach Bankai in half a month. But... if I change my approach, the success rate will be much higher."

Consider countermeasures and make targeted preparations.

It's not about simply becoming stronger, but about being able to defeat Kenpachi Onigeki!

After thinking for a while, Aizen Sousuke readily agreed.

After all, this kind of request was not a troublesome matter; it was just a matter of 'lifting a finger' for him.

"Then we'll contact you again later... Matsushita-kun, remember to get some rest these days."

"I will, Aizen-sensei."

Watching the other person's departing figure, Matsushita Yusuke also left.

As he hurried down the corridor, he casually brought up the relevant panel for his Zanpakuto and began to examine it briefly.

'The one who learned Bankai in half a month is Kurosaki Ichigo, and what he learned wasn't the orthodox kind of release; it had an eerie feel to it from the inside out...'

I didn't take this path.

Therefore, we can only choose to improve in other areas.

So the question is, in this situation, how can we maximize our strength?

Naturally, it's 'Zanpakuto Release!'

The level 52 in the Kido system is very close to 70, but based on his experience so far, Matsushita Yusuke knows how difficult it is to accumulate those 18 points...

Have you ever tried the "cut a discount" game on Pinduoduo? It's the kind where you invite people to join and keep reducing the price, but you can never reach the limit.

It's similar to the one next door that has no bottom line (not really).

In short, these 18 points of progress are definitely not a threshold that can be crossed in just half a month!

Therefore, we have to make other plans.

'The number of people possessing the Law and Biology attributes is far fewer than those possessing the Elemental attributes…'

If you want to make a big push, then think about it from the perspective of consuming large quantities to satisfy your hunger.

If we can get another Zanpakuto that can be released in the next two weeks, we can be sure of victory!

100: 120%

After setting the most basic plan, Matsushita Yusuke showed no sign of relaxing.

After all, his opponent in half a month would be a captain-level figure, so he had to go all out.

So the first thing to do was to apply for leave from the Spirit Arts Academy... The procedures went surprisingly smoothly, and Matsushita Yusuke felt that Team Thirteen was starting to exert its strength.

After taking leave, Matsushita Yusuke moved to live near the Second Division.

Knowing the whole story, Yoruichi Shihouin generously offered to 'sponsor' him, covering all his food and lodging expenses, and also providing other forms of assistance.

This was a huge help.

After all, Aizen Sousuke's authority was limited to the level of vice-captain, which made him somewhat inadequate in terms of 'finding people'.

Having a powerful nobleman endorse it was a lifesaver in its immediate crisis.

By practicing with two to three teammates every day, Yusuke Matsushita was doing his best to improve his skills.

Surprisingly, Soi Fon didn't bother him, and didn't even ask him to do any chores.

"Come back and clean after you're done... I'll make you clean the toilet for a year!"

—This guy really doesn't know how to say anything nice.

With a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings), on the tenth day of sparring, Matsushita Yusuke finally managed to unleash his Zanpakuto.

[Elemental System: 30]

Become!

Yusuke Matsushita couldn't wait to try it out, and then revealed a rather subtle expression.

"Holy crap..."

With that gasp, the Zanpakuto in his hand slightly deformed, and then...

A bright flash of light appeared, but it flickered and disappeared as quickly as a fleeting glimpse of a flower.

Although Zanpakuto can enter Shikai state.

But now there's a very troublesome problem—it seems to be an ability related to the fire element?

Of course, Yusuke Matsushita himself didn't have any objections to it...

However, considering the current state of Soul Society, with Yamamoto's 'Zanka Tachi' standing in the way, he really didn't think any other fire-wielding master could compare to this guy.

You have to understand that he's on Aizen's side, so he'll eventually have to run into Yamamoto.

When the old man sees that you also play with fire, he'll probably be grinning from ear to ear... Wow! This little thing is quite perceptive. Come on, let me see how fierce your fire is!

however.

After briefly understanding the mechanics and abilities of his Zanpakuto, Matsushita Yusuke couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

His expression was quite amusing.

"This ability..."

They followed a completely different path from Yamamoto.

Furthermore... if they perform well, it seems they might be able to rival him? Of course, this is just the opinion of the person involved.

In short, this is interesting!

'And it can be used during the competition...'

If the opponent is Oni Yancheng, this thing is practically a 'special attack'!

at the same time.

Inside the Eleventh Division barracks.

Gui Yancheng's roar reverberated throughout the courtyard like a thunderclap from a clear sky, carrying an almost hysterical quality.

"Where's the wine?! Where's the wine?! Bring it to me!!!"

Snapped! ! !

The jar crashed to the ground, spilling wine everywhere. A shard of wine bounced off and cut the corner of an unfortunate man's eye.

Blood gushed down, but the guy gritted his teeth and didn't utter a sound...

It hurts a bit.

But he's still alive; if he attracts Guiyan City, then he's doomed.

Inside the spacious yet dimly lit dojo, a slightly tipsy Oni Yancheng shook his head and raised his left hand, pointing at the team member beside him.

"You, you, and you! Today it's the three of you... come with me, let's spar!"

It's like the King of Hell calling in the roll call.

The three people who were chosen turned pale and trembled, as if they had been scared out of their wits.

"Captain! Captain, please spare me! I don't want to be a member anymore, I quit, I quit..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Gui Yancheng's large hand covered his head, gripping it tightly.

He was already broad-shouldered, and the average person's physique would appear as exaggerated as a dwarf next to him.

"What a joke... You've all been living the high life under my wing, and now you want to leave? You might as well die!"

Snapped!

His head was completely crushed by being squeezed.

Various filth splattered onto their bodies, making the already gloomy dojo even colder.

The Eleventh Division has a rather unique nature...

This statement applies to all members of the team as well. Under the name of Oni Kenpachi, these thugs from Rukongai get along well with him and the two sides get along very well.

But such a relationship is not to be taken seriously.

This is even more true now that they've turned against each other.

"Hey! I...we'll go, we'll go with the captain!"

"That's good, hurry up."

Gui Yancheng coldly swept his gaze around.

There aren't many people left... but it's enough.

As a 'reserve' before the arrival of a major battle, it was enough for him to make final preparations.

He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to lose. He thought he was doomed, but unexpectedly, that kid accepted the challenge...

Then things become very simple.

In the battle five days later, he will reclaim everything that belongs to him, and the Eleventh Division will still be his!

With a surge of energy, Oni-Iron Castle Kenpachi's breathing became much heavier. It was hard to tell if it was just his imagination... but his size seemed to be subtly expanding again.

He seemed to have lost his human form.

They slowly approached something inhuman...

"what!"

Screams could be heard frequently from within the Eleventh Division, causing the people who originally lived nearby to move away, no longer daring to stay in this place for even a moment longer.

Both sides have reasons why they cannot afford to lose.

With a mix of anticipation and trepidation, five days passed in the blink of an eye.

at last.

The day of the duel has arrived.
