Chapter 167 166: What You See Is What You Get
The Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons.
This is the true name of Arima Shizuya's Bankai.
And its ability itself, just like its name... possesses extremely special abilities.
As we all know, in Buddhism, the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons are all 'non-human' things, and among them, this includes eight kinds of Shinto monsters.
One is Heavenly Dragon, two is Dragon, three is Yaksha, four is Gandharva, five is Asura, six is Garuda, seven is Kinnaras, and eight is Mahoraga.
Among them, the Heavenly Dragons are the most important.
Even more, the original meaning of Arima Shizuya's Zanpakutō, the Sagara Dragon, can also be classified as a subordinate of the Dragons.
In the descriptions of many Mahayana Buddhist scriptures... the existence of these Eight Divisions is mentioned, and they appear in various Buddhist scriptures as listeners.
The various branches called 'Eight Divisions' also symbolize eight different abilities at this moment.
So,
What level can this ability bring Arima Shizuya's ability to?
Reverse time.
Until the past of several dozen seconds ago.
The roaring Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip broke through the air and came in front of Arima Shizuya with an extremely strong posture.
——As Soi-Fong said.
This mass condensed by spiritual pressure, after undergoing an incredible compression process.
The power it burst out... is indeed beyond imagination.
There is no doubt that after Soi-Fong's Zanpakutō ability performed Bankai, it sublimated the characteristic of strong attack to the extreme.
As for the correct solution?
Many people have already shown it in the original work...
Naturally, they also tried to avoid its edge and avoid this violent spiritual pressure concentrated bomb.
After all, in the final analysis, this thing itself does not have the function of tracking.
Even in the original work, it was only under the siege of the barrier that half of Bai Laoer's face was blown off.
Although from the perspective of being strong enough to make bricks fly, this idea and theory are indeed tenable.
But... compared to the real ruthless people.
‘If the strength is not strong enough, the bricks are not hard enough. ’
Neither does he have the posture of burning the three realms like old man Yamamoto.
Nor does he have the complex power of Strawberry Brother's three-in-one.
Therefore.
Taking a little risk and trying to use his new ability is also a good attempt.
Tianlong Babu·Tianzhong.
It is said that in the Buddhist cosmology, there are three realms and six paths in the world, and the Tianzhong live in them, but they are the most superior and have a long life.
Because of this.
The appearance of Tianzhong is also the branch that inherits the most important ability.
Capture, analyze, and simulate.
The shattered Zanpakuto presents a powdery thing, lingering around Arima Shizuya.
These dissipated powdery things flew around at a level that was invisible to the naked eye, and the surrounding environment was completely understood in an instant.
The essence of Bankai is a kind of sublimation.
With a sharper sense than the initial solution, Arima Shizuya's ability has been greatly enhanced.
I see, I know.
Then...
It is control, and knowing everything.
The principle, composition, and everything of the Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip were analyzed and understood by Arima Shizuya in an instant.
So just in the moment of witnessing, Arima Shizuya also made a corresponding judgment in his heart.
Even if it was hit head-on, it would definitely not be the extent of killing on the spot.
And this was just a matter of a moment.
Time is still flowing, but after a certain insignificant endpoint, Arima Shizuya has completed the deconstruction of Soi-Fong.
Then.
Let's start a thrilling adventure.
The gears of time are tightly meshed, and everything seems to have slowed down countless times, presenting a funny and weird posture at this moment.
And Arima Shizuya also watched the light and heat that were gradually breaking and expanding.
At the same moment, Arima Shizuya's figure began to collapse...
His figure, like his Zanpakutō, completely dissipated at this moment.
Every grain of dust was filled with Arima Shizuya's spiritual power, and in it, different scenes continued to be performed.
Time was distorted.
This simple thing was no longer a wild bull running in one direction at this moment.
It was twisted into a ring by the power of the Heavenly Dragons and the Heavenly Beings.
The cycle with no way out showed an uninterrupted trend and began this cycle over and over again.
It was in this Sumeru that countless Arima Shizuya looked at the light and heat in their eyes.
At this moment, they took the first step...
'No. '
Voice.
There was a voice coming from behind him.
But what kind of movement could come at this time? You have to know that this is the world of mind, which is similar to the consciousness space that belongs to an individual.
This place should be desolate, silent, and lifeless.
But Arima Shizuka didn't show any surprise, he even followed the instructions of the voice.
He stopped at this moment.
The boy turned to another direction silently, trying to take another step...
'No. '
It was still the same movement.
It came from nowhere and penetrated everywhere.
Like a fish immersed in glue, Arima Shizuka seemed to hear this voice coming from all directions.
Still adjusting the direction silently, Arima Shizuya looked for the next way out and tried to move forward.
this time……
'That's right. ’
Without any hesitation, Arima Shizu also took his first step in this direction.
And in the next moment.
Arima Shizuya looked behind him.
His body was like a stretched curve, and the figure was only one step away from him...
At this moment, I am trying to take my first step in the wrong direction.
Looking at this remnant of the past.
Arima Shizuya opened his mouth slightly and hummed at this moment.
'wrong. ’
It’s me who reminds myself of the past.
It’s me who guides me now.
The one who responded to my future self... was also me.
Time, with the power of the Ten Dragons and Eight Tribes, has become a force that Shizuya Arima can control.
What you see is what you get.
………………
Time passed and returned to reality.
Arima Shizu also raised his right hand at this moment, rubbing his chin with a rather playful expression.
"I saw everything, and I discovered your weak points."
"I found the weak point where the Thunder Whip explodes."
"After that...I walked out."
A total of thirty-six steps.
That's all.
Because of this, it is really touching.
The other party's so-called swastika seems to be something full of flaws at this moment.
The honest and unreserved young man had no intention of lying at this moment.
But unfortunately... Broken Bee obviously cannot understand the stakes involved. She couldn't even understand what Arima Shizuya was saying at this moment.
What is the weak point of the Thunder Whip?
This is an explosion. It is an attack method that does not distinguish between friend and foe. With the bonus of swastika, it has a power that will even cause space to collapse!
Can something like that really be avoided? Or even by walking?
I don’t even think about it, I can’t understand it…
Broken Bee's lips began to tremble uncontrollably. She was acting quite embarrassed at this moment as she faced this reality that was beyond her comprehension.
"You, don't come here!"
"Why can't you come over?"
Arima Shizu also crouched down and leaned forward slightly.
The Broken Bee let out a sharp blast at this moment, and even its expression became indescribably distorted.
"No, no, you can't come over!"
"If you don't call me again, it will be my turn."
Arima Shizu just smiled and extended his right hand to the other party.
There was a stone blocking him behind him, so he couldn't avoid it at all.
The feeling of weakness after releasing the Thunder Whip made Broken Bee completely unable to muster the slightest strength to resist.
Like literally the end of the road.
What should I do?
Broken Bee trembled and turned his head away, subconsciously turned sideways and put his hands in front of himself.
How would Ma Jing do it? To say that I am not afraid would be a lie.
Can be in the next moment.
There was a soft popping sound from his forehead.
A slight tingling sensation, accompanied by a chuckle... made Broken Bee open his eyes involuntarily.
She looked at Arima Shizuya slowly closing his right hand.
The smile on his face did not change at all.
"Even in this situation, he did not choose to beg for mercy, which is indeed commendable."
Although weak and helpless, he also appears arrogant and arrogant. But no matter what, this is also the characteristic of the person named Shatter.
But he did carry out his stubbornness.
"You should be pleased when you see Ye Da. After all, you have indeed grown up and are sticking to your own path."
"Maybe we need to change our thinking? After all, not everyone can accept your bad temper."
"Since you are the captain, you should at least be more tolerant and alert."
For this contest.
"If your brain breaks down, it's a lesson to you."
So far.
Arima Shizuya stood up and stared not far away.
Bird Chojiro understood the idea, and at this moment he took half a step forward, raised his right hand high, and shouted loudly.
"Captain election battle, the winner..."
"Captain of the fifth division."
"Arima Shizuya!"
The energetic young man returned to the queue.
At this moment, I received a lot of praise.
Kyōraku Shunsui came over with a smile.
"Ah, I don't know how many years I have seen such a wonderful contest."
Ukitake Jushiro coughed and rolled his eyes at his friend.
"Is it wonderful? Do you want to say something so contrary to your will..."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni didn't say a word, but the slight nod of his head was regarded as the greatest compliment.
And a little further away is Aizen Soyousuke.
He stood side by side with Dong Xian Kao and showed a peaceful smile towards this side.
An expected victory.
But I didn't expect it to be such an extremely relaxed gesture.
As expected of you, Arima Shizuya.
On the other side... Uozhihua Lie stepped forward slowly and stretched out his right hand towards Suihou who stood up tremblingly.
"Captain Broken Bee, your condition is not very good. Do you need my help?"
What a joke.
He can now be the leader of the covert operations force.
Just showing fatigue is already a considerable degree of gaffe.
If you need help from others, it is undoubtedly another kind of disqualification.
With a pale face and sweat all over her face, Soi-Fong trembled her lips and almost subconsciously wanted to say no.
But such a whisper condensed on her lips.
At this moment, what Yuma Jingye said just now came to her mind again.
The opponent's absolute winner defeated her with absolute advantage, and even in a way that she could not understand.
Lost miserably - although she could say some unconvinced words.
But the facts were in front of her, and no matter how much she argued, she could not reverse it.
The privilege of being a winner.
Even if her life was taken away, it would not be surprising.
But the opponent not only let her go, but also taught her a lesson in that condescending tone.
Don't want to admit it, don't want to accept it.
But... this is also a punishment for her failure.
Ignoring it is escaping, and even more cowardly.
Soi-Fong can't accept herself like this, so she began to try to change her mind at this moment.
Her lips were almost pressed into a line, like a babbling baby.
She uttered this extremely awkward whisper with difficulty and obscurity.
"Then... please, please."
Perhaps it was just a polite statement.
But after getting a response at this moment, Unohana Retsu's expression became a little subtle.
"..."
She blinked, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise a rather relaxed arc.
What an interesting young man.
She put her hands together in front of her and bowed slightly, and Unohana Retsu's tone was neither arrogant nor humble.
"Then, please ask Captain Soi-Fong to move to the fourth division."
A farce-like contest came to an end.
At the same time.
Because the main purpose of this meeting had been completed, old man Yamamoto did not issue any follow-up instructions.
Everyone can pack up.
Return to your own division to start preparations - after the Hollowification incident, nearly half of the divisions are in a state of disrepair.
The next work will surely be very hard.
"So Gin, you should be Shizuya-kun's assistant."
That night.
In a routine meeting, Aizen made such a declaration.
"After all, you and Shizuya-kun are old acquaintances. Although the work content of the 5th Division may be a little unfamiliar, as long as you put a little thought into it, you will be able to get started quickly."
Ichimaru Gin raised his hand and scratched the corner of his mouth, and his expression was no longer sad or happy at this moment.
Do you want me to be the assistant of that annoying guy?
Can I refuse?
"Chengzhi."
It was not Ichimaru Gin's style to refuse in person, and now he had no say.
Letting the other party arrange it was naturally the best choice.
At the same time.
Arima Shizuya, who sat on the chair with a pale face, showed a smile that said "I've helped a lot".
"Ah, that's really troublesome for you~"
Ichimaru Gin walked around to Arima Shizuya and said with a frown at this moment.
"So, how did you become like this?"
"This? Ah...it's not a big deal."
It's just a simple phenomenon.
"It's the side effect of Bankai, the side effect~"
After thinking for a while, Arima Shizuka added thoughtfully.
"It seems...it's something called the Five Degenerations of Heavenly Beings?"
