You Dare Not Drink? / I Don't Understand the World of Geniuses
He had watched a lot of anime, and he often saw a type of bullet called "Curse Bullet." This thing was condensed magic; although it looked like a bullet, it could unleash the power of forbidden spells.
If... if I could concentrate the destructive power of my Hadō into a single bullet, wouldn't that greatly increase the power of the Spirit Particle Musket?
Never underestimate the advanced technology and Kidō of Soul Society.
Aizen's Reiatsu, imprisoned in the Mugen Jigoku, has surpassed the realms of Shinigami and Hollows, yet he is still bound by various seals.
They boasted that they would knock the Soul King Palace down from the sky, but were forcibly controlled by the chair invented by Kurotsuchi Mayuri.
It's not impossible to concentrate the power of the Kidō into a single bullet if one studies it patiently.
Over the next two months, Yamabuki Chidori began researching how to "enchant" bullets, giving them destructive power comparable to Kidō the moment they were fired.
The Zendouji Yuuhin certainly looked listless. Are you kidding me? How could this kind of research possibly succeed?
However, during this period, the Spirit Particle Musket that Yamabuki Chidori had first researched had already been put into use, and sure enough, in the battles of the next two months, the number of casualties among the Shinigami equipped with Spirit Particle Musket decreased significantly.
Many nobles even collect Spirit Particle Musket, Yamabuki Chidori has once again led the trend in Seireitei without her knowledge.
Of course, for most nobles, the Spirit Particle Musket was just a toy, something for them to show off.
With the casualty rate decreasing, the Fourth Division's industrial activities also decreased.
It was a sunny afternoon, Unohana was dozing off in her office.
The warm sunlight felt very comfortable on Unohana's face.
"Captain! Captain!" a female Grim Reaper whispered, "If you sit like this and wake up, your neck will hurt a lot. If you're really tired, why don't you lie down for a while? Haven't you been resting well lately?"
Unohana slowly woke up, noticing drool at the corner of her mouth. She gently wiped it away, smiling sheepishly, "I don't know what's wrong with Yamabuki lately, every night... sigh!"
The young girl's face flushed instantly. "How dare the Captain be so bold! How could he tell outsiders about something like this? Shouldn't he go home and discuss it with his husband?"
Moreover, I heard that the Captain and the Chief Strategist married for over a hundred years, and their relationship is still so good.
"He's Kidō experiments every night, and there are explosions every day. I can't live like this anymore!" Unohana yawned, then noticed that her teammate's face was very red.
"What's wrong? Are you sick? Your face is very red. Do you want me to prescribe some medicine for you?" Unohana asked.
The little girl then realized she had misunderstood.
"Captain, you and the Chief Strategist are a model couple in the Gotei 13. How did you two meet? Can you tell us?" the little girl asked excitedly.
Gossiping is a girl's nature, especially since Unohana has a gentle personality and gets along very well with her teammates, often joking around with them.
Looking at the sun in the sky, Unohana said slowly, "So, this happened more than a hundred years ago. I wasn't a member of the Gotei 13 back then. I was young and impetuous, and when I heard there were some strong fighters in the Gotei 13, I challenged them. Oh, and I even beat up Saitō Fubōfu and Gen'en Kinra. And the Central 46 at that time were really corrupt. I killed half of them, and while I was killing them, Yamabuki appeared in front of me. Ah! It really is fate!"
The faces of the team members who were just watching the show all changed.
Was the Captain really such a terrifying person back then?
Half of the Central 46 were killed! How could they still survive? That's unbelievable!
What have you been through all these years to become so gentle?
Is it really love and family that can change a woman?
Just as Unohana was reminiscing about the past like an old woman, another explosion came from the direction of her house.
Unohana sighed and covered her forehead, thinking that she wouldn't be getting a good night's sleep tonight.
How about... I prepare some medicine for Yamabuki myself to distract him?
Unohana made up her mind and went to the medicine storehouse.
Yam, Cornus officinalis, Epimedium, Cinnamon, Cistanche deserticola, Sakurako, Rehmannia glutinosa powder, White Concealment songaricum, Ligusticum striatum, Ligusticum striatum, and Ligusticum sinense.
The female team member next to her blushed and asked softly, "Captain, Chief Strategist too hard lately? Won't this kind of supplementation cause problems?"
"No, I know what I'm doing." Unohana smiled and poured the ingredients one by one into the medicine grinder, grinding them into powder.
The male team members next to him felt a chill run down their spines; the Chief Strategist for a tough time tonight.
Only Unohana smiled as she increased the dosage of these tonics to the Compulsory Quantity.
It was late at night, and the sound of explosions continued to come from the basement of the Yamabuki Chidori house. I wonder if it's because of the disturbance. The neighbors have all gone to stay with their relatives for the past few days.
Yamabuki Chidori stared at the tiny bullet in her palm.
He had racked his brains for the past few days, but still couldn't get a single bullet to unleash the power of the Kidō.
So much so that the experiments kept going on and the explosions kept happening!
Even someone as good-natured as Unohana is starting to have trouble taking it.
"Where exactly did we go wrong?" Yamabuki Chidori sat cross-legged on the ground, scratching her head, looking puzzled.
He wanted to unleash the power of White Lightning on the bullet in front of him, so he infused it with the same Reiatsu and arranged the Reishi in the same order as when he released the Kidō. However, when he activated it, the thing would explode indiscriminately, without distinguishing between friend and foe.
If this thing were sent to the battlefield, let alone whether it could kill the enemy, it would kill a large number of our own people first.
Moreover, this is only the lowest level of Kidō. It seems impossible to embed higher-level Kidō like One Blade Incineration or Goryū Tenmetsu into it now.
Just as he was deep in thought, Unohana arrived at the underground training ground with a bowl of tea.
"So tired? Still not asleep?" Unohana's smile was as bright as sunshine, "Honey, come have some tea!"
Chapter 43: You Dare Not Drink?
"Honey, come and have some tea." Unohana came over with a steaming bowl of tea. "I know work is important, but rest is just as important. It's not worth ruining your health!"
Yamabuki Chidori felt deeply moved; they truly were an old married couple, knowing how to care for each other.
He reached out and took the steaming tea, but just as he was about to drink it, he suddenly smelled a strong medicinal odor.
Yamabuki Chidori herself is a great expert in medicine, and has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. With just a slight twitch of her nose, she can tell what kind of medicine is in this bowl of tea.
"Yam, Cornus officinalis, Epimedium, Cinnamon, Cistanche deserticola, Sakurako, Rehmannia glutinosa powder, White Concealment, Cynomorium songaricum, Ligusticum striatum, Ligusticum striatum, and Ligusticum sinense... these are all highly nourishing herbs..." Yamabuki Chidori looked at his gentle and virtuous wife, a stiff smile on his face, "Um... I feel my body is still fine, I don't think I need these things to nourish my body!"
Unohana's smile grew even brighter, as adorable as Little White by the roadside. "These are medicinal herbs I carefully selected, specially prepared for you. Drink them."
"Oh no, no, no, drinking this will cause problems. I don't think I've been neglecting you lately. Are you that lonely?" Yamabuki Chidori looked at his wife with a puzzled expression. Their life together was still very loving.
Does Unohana feel her body isn't strong enough and want to add fuel to the fire?
"I think I'd better forget about it! I've been quite busy with work lately. Maybe I should exercise more these next few days to improve my physical fitness?" Yamabuki Chidori said with a puzzled look.
Unohana's smile remained unchanged, but her upper body had hunched over, her back to the light, casting a shadow over her face.
The originally cute and kind smile appeared particularly sinister and terrifying under the shadows, instantly creating a sense of oppression!
"Darling, drink!"
"No, no, no, this is probably too early for me. I'll wait another thousand or eight hundred years before using these things to make up for it..."
"Drink!!!"
Faced with his wife's terrifying pressure, Yamabuki Chidori obediently drank the bowl of tea containing the "Ten Essential Tonics." Needless to say, the taste was bitter and spicy. Most importantly, after drinking it, Yamabuki Chidori felt a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
It feels like there's a fire burning inside me.
"Um... why don't you go back to sleep first? I'll study it some more!" Before Yamabuki Chidori could finish speaking, Unohana grabbed her husband by the neck and dragged him all the way to the bedroom.
I doubt anyone would want to read the following description, so I won't.
In short, the scene was extremely intense and incredibly cruel.
As a result, the two of them slept in late the next morning and were both late for work.
When Yamabuki Chidori came to work at the 11th Division the next day, her legs were weak.
However, I slept very well last night, which released all the fatigue from the past few days.
Yamabuki Chidori looked at the bullet in her hand and fell silent again.
What exactly is the problem? Why can't the Spirit Particle Bullets unleash the power of the Kidō?
Could it be because my mastery of Kidō is insufficient?
No way! Looking at the entire Gotei 13, his Kidō level is the highest. He's not bragging, but even the Captain Commander's Kidō level can't compare to his.
Furthermore, the power of the Kidō is directly linked to the Kidō Reiatsu releases it. His own Reiatsu is definitely the strongest in the Gotei 13. After seventy years of continuous training, even the current Captain Commander cannot compare to him in terms of Reiatsu.
So where exactly does the problem lie?
After assigning today's tasks, Yamabuki Chidori took the opportunity to visit the Shino Academy.
A great swordsman once said that a true master always has the heart of a student. Over the years, Yamabuki Chidori has been at the top, and it is inevitable that some arrogance will arise in his heart, although he is constantly facing his own mentality.
There is only one possibility now, and it is also the possibility that Yamabuki Chidori least wants to face: there may have been some problems when she was learning Kidō.
Or, could you go and attend a lecture in the freshman class yourself?
Let's see where the problem lies.
As the dean of the Shino Academy, no one dared to criticize Yamabuki Chidori for taking a walk here. He came to a class that was teaching Kidō and casually found a place to sit down.
The Teacher who is currently teaching the Kidō Demon Way) was once a member of the Kidō Corps. However, he was seriously injured in a battle and was unable to continue fighting on the front lines, so he came to the Shino Academy to work as Teacher.
The Teacher was so frightened when he saw the Yamabuki Chidori that he almost fell off the podium.
Yamabuki Chidori's identity is not only that of the Dean of the Shino Academy, but also the Great Sage of the Central 46, the Chief Strategist of the Gotei 13, and the Captain of the 11th Division...
Yamabuki Chidori herself was very curious about when she had acquired such a large number of titles.
Compared to the Teacher, most students were quite calm, because they had never seen Yamabuki Chidori in person and thought the boy was their classmate who had just found a place to sit down because he was late.
Yamabuki Chidori casually gestured to the Teacher on the podium not to panic and to continue the lesson as normal.
The Teacher had taken this as a test from the leadership and gave a vivid and engaging presentation on the knowledge of the Kidō.
"Classmates, you must remember this: the power of the four fighting styles of a Shinigami— the Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Hohō, and Kidō —is related to your own Reiatsu. Therefore, striving to increase your Reiatsu is the right path." The Teacher said loudly, "Alright, you have now learned the thirty-first Hadō, the Cremation Cannon. Now, who would like to come up and demonstrate?"
These students were terrified of being called on by the Teacher, and they all shrank back like ostriches.
The Teacher gritted her teeth inwardly. These little brats, if they dare to embarrass me in front of the dean, I'll teach them a lesson.
Just then, a boy raised his hand.
"Teacher, let me do it!"
Yamabuki Chidori's gaze followed the boy's.
I almost laughed out of anger.
Students at the Shino Academy all wear uniforms, usually white shirts and black pants. If they are girls, they will wear long red skirts instead.
But the boy in front of me had a straw in his mouth and was wearing a red and green floral coat, just like a delinquent teenager in real life.
The Teacher on the podium had been so focused on lecturing that he had forgotten about this mischievous student. Now that he saw the boy raise his hand, he wished he could just push him back down.
However, looking around, there were indeed no other students who wanted to perform on stage, so the Teacher had no choice but to say, "Kyoraku, you come up here!"
Chapter 44: I Don't Understand the World of Geniuses
"Kyoraku, come up here!" The Teacher had no choice but to say to the student.
Upon hearing this name, Yamabuki Chidori's eyes narrowed slightly. Kyoraku?
In Seireitei, the Kyōraku Family was High-Ranking Noble with great power, but it was Shunsui Kyōraku who truly made Yamabuki Chidori familiar with the name.
The future Captain of the 8th Division of the Gotei 13, and also the second Captain Commander... Could this carefree young man in front of me be...?
Yamabuki Chidori couldn't help but take a closer look at the young man before her.
He looked only twelve or thirteen years old, with a very young face and a constant smile on his face. You could tell from his appearance that he was a mischievous troublemaker!
Kyoraku raised his hand towards the Wooden Dummy outside and chanted the incantation. "You ruler! Mask of flesh and blood, all things, soaring with wings, those things bearing the name of humanity! Scorching heat and strife, sweeping southward across the sea, step forward! Hadō #31, Cremation Cannon!"
A ball of orange-red flame condensed in his palm, and instantly the flames erupted, shattering the Wooden Dummy in the distance. The students couldn't help but applaud.
"You brat, I'll let it slide today since you didn't embarrass me," the Teacher thought to himself.
"Very well, go back to your seat, and take off those brightly colored clothes!" the Teacher said sternly.
Kyoraku reluctantly took off his brightly colored outer garment, revealing a white monk's robe underneath.
Yamabuki Chidori stretched out her hand and condensed a small fireball in her palm, which was a miniature Cremation Cannon.
They're all Reishi, all Reiatsu, so what exactly went wrong? He still can't figure it out.
"Alright, everyone go to the playground and practice on your own! Be careful not to get hurt." That's what the Teacher said to the students. The students could only go to the playground to practice on their own, but most of them failed the first time they tried to use Kidō. It's not an easy thing to control one's Reiatsu so skillfully.
