Lin Nan did not go through the main entrance. Instead, he climbed over the wall and entered Spirit Arts Academy near the dormitory building and the first-year group teaching building. He used the bushes on the roadside to hide his figure and carefully observed the movement in the courtyard through the gaps in the leaves.
The faint shouts of death gradually faded away, and the deathly silence soon returned to the teaching building and dormitory building. The weak spiritual pressure belonging to the students in the hospital almost completely disappeared.
In Lin Nan's spiritual perception, there are about dozens of extremely obvious spiritual pressure reactions, active between the teaching building and the dormitory building.
"... There are many spiritual pressure reactions that are about to reach the Seated Officer level, and many have already reached the Seated Officer level. It seems that things are in trouble." Lin Nan frowned, enduring the discomfort caused by dizziness, and thought to himself.
Ever since he stepped into the wall area of the Spirit Arts Academy, he began to feel slight dizziness. And the sky was once again shrouded in a faint translucent light red.
"What's going on? Are you hallucinating again?" He punched his temples impatiently, "I did it once when I set off from the Spirit Arts Academy to Rukongai. Is there anything weird about this Spirit Arts Academy?"
Although the symptoms were the same as last time, it may be that the increased spiritual pressure brought stronger resistance, which made his discomfort much less severe than before.
Lin Nan was wondering when dozens of rebel warriors dressed in crimson and wearing breastplates suddenly walked out of the teaching building and dormitory building over there. They did not stay after they appeared, but left in groups of three and two, climbed over the wall from different directions, and headed to different directions of Seireitei.
In the spiritual sense, those who are about to enter the Seated Officer level, accounting for the majority of the spiritual pressure, move uniformly towards the square in front of the teaching building.
Lin Nan felt something in his heart. "These people suddenly gathered together, is there something going on?"
He endured a slight dizziness and carefully moved his body among the trees, arriving at the square in front of the teaching building. Just as he stabilized his body and looked towards the center of the square, his pupils couldn't help but dilate instantly.
At least five hundred people have gathered in the square inside the main entrance of the Spirit Arts Academy. These people are all dressed in student uniforms and have bare hands.
"How come there are so many college students? The college students have just..." Lin Nan was shocked, but he reacted instantly, "No, their spiritual pressure reaction is gradually increasing. These people are not college students, but rebels!"
As he realized the identities of those people, in his field of vision, the attire of those "hospital students" also changed a little:
A faint red halo began to appear on the blue and white or red and white hospital uniforms. The halo gradually extinguished, and the hospital uniforms gradually transformed into dark red clothes and light gray breastplates.
"What's going on?" Lin Nan, who had witnessed all this, felt an indescribable sense of discomfort and disobedience all over his body. His inner intuition was constantly warning, as if it was reminding him that something was wrong.
He endured the anxiety surging in his heart and subconsciously glanced up -
At the bell tower at the top of the teaching building, there was a person standing outside the bell tower, overlooking the hundreds of people below. Above his head, the translucent light red with him as the center formed a visible vortex that was constantly rotating.
Lin Nan looked up thoughtfully. He could now basically confirm that the red color was an illusion that only he could see. Because other things on the ground still maintained their proper color and were not dyed red at all.
"Brave rebels! We have been lurking in this Seireitei for nearly two months. Today, the day of our loyalty finally comes!" The people on the clock tower spoke slowly, and the deep voice echoed throughout the square,
"You did a good job in Rukongai before, getting rid of most of the useless students in the Spirit Arts Academy! This has fully paved the way for us to occupy Spirit Arts Academy alone.
You all have taken a sufficient amount of concentrated Reishi-Gathering Pill again. When your spiritual pressure reaches the Seated Officer level again, we can start our great revenge!
Gentlemen! Today's Seireitei, no one will be your opponent. This is the battlefield for your wanton hunting!"
Lin Nan listened to the man's voice carefully, and felt a familiar feeling in his heart, as if he had heard it somewhere. Since it was a bit far away, he looked carefully at the figure in the air.
It turned out to be Tsunayashiro Tokinada!
"This..." Lin Nan was suddenly shocked. Tsunayashiro Tokinada, who usually seemed harmless to humans and animals, actually colluded with the rebels?!
"No, that's not right. Shi Tan is still so young. Even if he wants to cooperate with the rebels, the rebels should not look down on him as a little brat who is at the bottom of his family." Lin Nan instantly overturned the shock in his heart and began to analyze calmly.
While waiting for the rebel samurai's spiritual pressure to increase to Seated Officer's level, Tsunayashiro Tokinada continued to talk endlessly to the following. This image was very different from the usual image of Tsunayashiro who seldom spoke at length.
"Could someone be impersonating him?" Lin Nan looked at the figure who had attended class with him and sent teacher Kido to the medical clinic together, and a strange idea suddenly came to his mind.
When he thought of this, a strong sense of disobedience arose deep in his heart, and he felt an urge to break free from the blindness of something. At the same time, his dizziness became more obvious.
He could feel that this was an instinctive impulse bursting out from the depths of his soul.
Along with a series of strange things inside the body, in Lin Nan's eyes, Tsunayashiro Tokinada's body also lit up with a faint red light. And in the mid-air, the light red light mask also became dimmer.
The dim light faded, and all traces of Tsunayashiro Tokinada disappeared. Instead, there was another thin and arrogant face.
Iwamoto Raizo! Iwamoto Raizo who once kidnapped Kyoraku Shunsui in the suburbs of Danzhao!
Lin Nan suddenly felt a burst of anger rising in his heart. He squeezed his hands tightly under the bushes and squeezed his fists with a creaking sound. He was originally injured by Iwamoto. It seems that today is the right time to take revenge!
"This old boy is indeed still alive... Was he pretending to be Tsunayashiro Tokinada just now??... I remembered, Kyoraku said that this guy's Soul Art seems to be from the illusion system, and Kyoraku's eldest brother seems to have fallen into his trap."
Through Iwamoto Raizo's narration, Lin Nan also roughly figured out the other party's overall plan.
After the Zanpakuto package swapping incident was discovered, they used their plan to hide the rebel soldiers among the Spirit Arts Academy students, and followed Court Guard Squad to Rukongai;
In Rukongai, the rebel warriors who were sent to the stronghold, with the blessing of Reishi-Gathering Pill, massacred the Soul Reaper team members and real college students in the stronghold late at night. Then they pretended to be survivors of the battle and followed them back to the Spirit Arts Academy;
The main force of the rebels concentrated on moving Court Guard Squad away from the mountain, and then these rebel warriors who had taken concentrated Reishi-Gathering Pill cleaned the inside of Seireitei.
Thinking of this, Lin Nan roughly figured out why Noble Rights Protection Association would try to harm himself after he discovered that Zanpakuto had been dropped;
Amemiya once mentioned to himself afterwards that Tsunayashiro Tokinada was instigating Noble Rights Protection Association's actions. Now that he thinks about it, the real mastermind behind the Noble Rights Protection Association's actions should be Iwamoto Raizo himself.
However, the only two things that don't make sense now are how they hid the rebel warriors in the Spirit Arts Academy? And how did they hide Oetsu Nimaiya's perception of Asauchi when he came to the Spirit Arts Academy to investigate?
Lin Nan gritted his teeth, his eyes constantly wandering between the crowd in the square and Iwamoto on the bell tower.
The rebels' plan is very simple and crude, by letting a group of elite rebel soldiers take drugs to enhance their spiritual pressure, reaching the combat power of all members Seated Officer.
The rebels practice Soul Art. Judging from Lin Nan's experience fighting against them, their Soul Art combat capabilities are similar to those of Soul Reaper's Shikai. The only difference is whether they have the materialized Asauchi as a basis.
And now, they already have the stolen Asauchi to enhance the strength of their basic attacks. After the passive strengthening of spiritual pressure, each rebel warrior's Soul Art will also be improved to varying degrees, and its power will be comparable to the Shikai of the Seated Officer-level Soul Reaper.
Facing such a team with all Seated Officer's combat strength, I'm afraid any squad will be in a hard fight. And the number of people in this team, Lin Nan guessed, should be consistent with the number of lost Zanpakuto:
Six hundred and eighty-three.
Haohu is no match for Los Lobos. Faced with so many Seated Officer-level combat forces, I'm afraid the vice-captain is no match. Only Captain-level can handle it.
However, now all the captains of Court Guard Squad have been transferred and left Seireitei!
In Seireitei, there are only two deputy Captain-level, plus two half-organized Court Guard Squad.
Oh, plus Kirinji Tenjiro. But Lin Nan feels that now he is worse than the first-generation captains, and may not even reach Captain-level.
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. The rebels' plan had actually reached this point, and the real trump card was actually hidden in Seireitei.
"We can't wait any longer. Capture the thief first. Capture the king first. I should take action before their spiritual pressure reaches the strongest stage." His eyes were firmly locked on Iwamoto Raizo.
Previously in the suburbs of Danzhao District, the injured himself and Kyoraku, with the help of Kyoraku Seishu, were able to defeat Iwamoto Raizo. Although he escaped, it also shows that this person's true strength should not be strong.
Judging from Lin Nan's current familiarity with Rei-Power and spiritual pressure, Iwamoto's strength should only be at the level of Seated Officer.
Now he has been promoted to the sixth level Rei-Power, and his four basic abilities are much stronger than before. It is not impossible to take advantage of the hundreds of rebel warriors below to take advantage of his Shunpo to raid the tower and behead Iwamoto!
Thinking of this, his eyes shone brightly, and he locked his eyes firmly on Iwamoto Raizo at the top. He gently pulled out Zanpakuto from the scabbard with his right hand, then took a step to the side, leaving the cover of the trees, and then the figure instantly disappeared in place.
Shunpo, attack, use the knife!
The shimmering blade cut through the air, making a sharp sound of breaking wind, and went straight to Iwamoto Raizo's neck!
Time was running out, and Lin Nan had no time to attach compressed spiritual pressure to the blade. But he believed that with the speed bonus brought by his Shunpo and the strength of his swing of the sword, he could kill Iwamoto with one strike!
The blade is getting closer, getting closer!
"It's done! Go and die, grandson!" He couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.
He was already approaching Iwamoto, and the knife in his hand was about to cut off his neck.
At this time, Lin Nan saw that Iwamoto's eyes suddenly glanced towards him, and then he let out an inaudible mocking sound.
"Heh."
Time seemed to have slowed down countless times. Iwamoto's left hand leisurely raised and faced his knife. He opened his three fingers slightly and pinched the blade.
The next moment, time returns to normal, and Lin Nan's knife has been tightly squeezed!
Iwamoto suddenly erupted with powerful spiritual pressure comparable to Captain-level. He looked sideways at Lin Nan, with a faint smile on his lips:
"Do you think I didn't notice you? Lin Nan?"
