Kyoraku Shunsui did not answer directly, but instead asked a question in return.

"Of course, you should either dodge or block."

Shiba answered instinctively.

"That's right. In a duel between experts, avoiding injury is the primary factor, because every injury can potentially change the course of the battle."

To do so in the face of Joe Higashi's offensive would be tantamount to surrendering the initiative. Unless one can find space to create distance and regroup, one will fall into the opponent's rhythm. At that point, one will only be able to parry Joe Higashi's attacks, with no power to retaliate, until another opportunity is found, at which point the battle will be over.

The simple description perfectly captures the fighting style of characters like Andy and Joe.

Gui Yancheng frowned and exclaimed in amazement, "That's right, back then I was suppressed by the captain and could only passively take the beating, which is why I was defeated so cleanly."

And this guy named Zaraki

At this point, even the slowest person would realize what was happening.

In a head-on confrontation, Kenpachi Zaraki, that madman, basically doesn't dodge or defend, which means that it's very difficult for Joe Higashi to successfully land the first hit of his combo.

Once both sides exchange injuries, Joe Higashi will be unable to continue his combo, and the success rate of launching an opening attack unscathed is extremely low.

"Then if everyone else uses this method to deal with Captain Higashijo, wouldn't they be in an invincible position from the start?"

Kuchiki Byakuya, who was standing next to Kuchiki Ginrin, suddenly spoke up.

"Too green, the brat from the Kuchiki family."

Having figured it out, Shiba glanced at him with a rather smug look, and said in a lecturing tone, "When the difference in strength is too great, no method is useful."

In battles of the same level, not everyone can react like Zaraki. When a vital point is locked onto by an enemy, everyone's first reaction is to dodge and defend—it's instinct!

Others also strongly agreed with this statement, especially Soi Fong, who came from Xingjun.

Every strong person who develops their own fighting style has instinctive reactions, and dodging attacks is naturally the most basic instinct. However, Kenpachi Zaraki's instinct is completely different from that of normal people. His instinct is to attack and enjoy the killing.

Going against one's instincts to trade injuries is certainly possible, but in that case, Joe Higashi would have absolutely no reason to do so; a single moment's inattention could end the battle.

Even if one can maintain constant concentration, the energy expended by the one constantly resisting instincts will naturally far exceed that of the opponent. By then, even if one doesn't constantly expose weaknesses, one will be worn down to death. This doesn't mean that Joe Higashi's fighting style is invincible. Every strong person has their own fighting style, and the outcome depends on actual performance and on-the-spot reactions.

Right now, it's just that Kenpachi Zaraki's fighting style is a counter to Joe Higashi's.

Or rather, it's not really about restraint. If it's a trade of injuries, neither of them loses out; at most, Kenpachi Zaraki just has a stronger will to live.

"Super Special Move: Death Tornado!"

Dozens of meters tall purple tornadoes rose from the ground, clearly indicating that Joe Higashi himself understood this.

Click.

The barrier cracked slightly, and the slight leakage of the gale and spiritual pressure caused many students to be thrown backwards. Fortunately, Aizen and Shiba Isshin reacted quickly and worked together to repair and stabilize the barrier.

The few demonic cultivators maintaining the barrier also broke out in a cold sweat, revealing expressions of relief.

If they hadn't acted in time, I reckon at least one-tenth to one-tenth of the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy would have been demolished.

If it were other walls or structures, that would be one thing, but if something happened at the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy, the Captain-Commander would probably throw them into the Maggot Nest for some serious education.

"Hmph, the Ghost Path Clan is becoming more and more incompetent these days."

The captain gave a slightly displeased snort, but did not impose any punishment.

Well, with both the chief and deputy Taoist priests either betraying the sect or becoming victims of the virtualization experiment, this situation is indeed difficult to handle.

After all, the reputation of the Kido Clan is not great, and it is far from being comparable to the Gotei 13, which is the symbol of the Soul Society. Even if the Grand Kido Master's status is comparable to that of the Captain, not many people are willing to join the Kido Clan.

Those who lack the ability won't become great demon masters; they'll just be lowly subordinates. They'd be better off joining a better squad. As for those with sufficient talent and ability, they wouldn't mind joining other squads either.

6 has no chance of becoming the captain, so why would he try to steal the job from a lowly Taoist priest?

However, due to Aizen's intervention, the Soul Society appears to be full of talented people, but the competition for jobs in the future will likely be very fierce. It's not impossible that someone will try to compete for the position of Great Demon Master.

The battle was nearing its end.

Seemingly realizing that his ultimate attack in his Shikai state wasn't safe, and learning from Andy's experience, Joe Higashi immediately unleashed his spiritual pressure once more.

"Solve for d!"

In the blink of an eye, the pale purple tornado suddenly transformed into a dazzling golden yellow.

Faced with such a terrifying attack, the golden spiritual pressure, so powerful it transformed into a demon, erupted without giving an inch.

"So impatient? Then let's get started, hahahahaha!!!!"

Feilu reminds you: Three things to do when reading

Chapter 401 The battle of the Shinigami is a battle of spiritual pressure 3/3

The spiritual pressure storms collided, and the golden light made people instinctively shield their eyes with their arms.

Aizen and Shiba Isshin, who were maintaining the barrier, frowned slightly and poured more spiritual power into the barrier, which was once again showing signs of trembling and breaking.

Fortunately, it was just the aftershock of spiritual pressure; otherwise, if it were any other captain under such a powerful spiritual pressure attack, they might have been embarrassed.

Leaving aside Aizen, even the spiritual pressure of Isshin Shiba, the protagonist's father, is exceptionally strong. Although it cannot compare to Kenpachi Zaraki in his complete form, it far surpasses most captains and is even higher than Kenpachi Zaraki in his current self-sealed state.

boom.

As countless spiritual particles scattered across the sky, the battlefield, which remained obscured from view, suddenly fell silent.

"Who's winning"

Aizen Senzaemon craned his neck, trying to get a better look.

Not just him, everyone else was waiting for the answer to this earth-shattering collision.

Aizen and Shiba Isshin exchanged a glance and tacitly withdrew their spiritual energy output, causing the barrier to melt away like snow.

*Pfft*

Kenpachi Zaraki, having plunged his blade into the arena, staggered, revealing his body covered in bloodstains. Facing the storm, his entire body was covered in tiny cuts, and he looked like a blood-soaked man, with pools of blood forming beneath his feet.

The disheveled Kenpachi Zaraki had long lost his initial arrogance, and his unsteady steps made one wonder if he would collapse at any moment.

But what silenced everyone even more was the figure opposite him.

"puff!"

Joe spat out a mouthful of blood. There was a deep cut on his body that ran from his shoulder to his abdomen. The pool of blood at his feet was not much less than that of Kenpachi Zaraki. In fact, you could vaguely see a few fragments of internal organs in it.

"A draw, a tie."

Matsumoto Rangiku's eyes trembled as she gently parted her lips.

tread.

With a resolute expression, the trembling Higashi Joe took a few slow, heavy steps toward Kenpachi Zaraki.

Looking at his opponent, Kenpachi Zaraki showed no fear, only a barely audible sigh: "Ha, he's really tough."

Seeing this, Yamamoto frowned but did not stop the duel.

He could tell that the two were not in mortal danger, so he saw no need to stop them; in fact, it would be better for him to insist on his own way.

Their rapid breathing was so noticeable at that moment, and everyone waited quietly for the final result.

"I'm really impressed by you."

Higashijo, his lips stained with blood, suddenly gave a bitter smile.

Puff.

With a single finger strike, Kenpachi Zaraki slowly and loudly fell backward to the ground.

"Captain Unohana!"

"Understood. Yuuto, go treat Captain Zaraki."

Without the captain-commander giving any orders, Retsu Unohana had already brought Isane Kotetsu to the arena with her Shunpo and used her Reidou to heal the two of them.

As the old man Yamamoto stepped onto the ring, his voice was deep and resonant.

"The victor is Joe Higashi! From this day forward, the Eleventh Division's Artillery Squad and the Fourteenth Division will be the Combat Squads."

Thus, the outcome is decided! After this battle, Kenpachi Zaraki and Joe Higashi both became famous.

Although Kenpachi Zaraki was defeated, he considered it a draw. Joe Higashi's victory was only a narrow one, and the outcome might be different if they fought again.

Aside from the original 11th Division Shinigami, the human Shinigami had no hostility towards Kenpachi Zaraki. On the contrary, his fierce fighting style attracted many admirers.

The subsequent recruitment for the new squads was also extremely popular, with an unusually large number of new recruits in the 11th and 14th Squads, which made the other captains less interested.

The two truly outstanding graduates of this year joined the Fifth Division and the Ninth Division respectively. The fact that Aizen's younger brother did not join his division but instead chose the Ninth Division surprised many of the captains.

However, considering Tosen Kaname's personality and the fact that Aizen Senzaemon was suspected of murdering Oike Aoi many years ago, Kyoraku and the others felt that Aizen, being a kind-hearted person, wanted Tosen to properly educate his younger brother's character.

In short, it was a complete misunderstanding.

After the basic first aid was administered, both Joe and Higashi were sent to the Fourth Division.

Although their injuries were not life-threatening, they were far more severe than those sustained by Andy in his previous fight against Kenpachi Zaraki.

After the information registration was completed, Matsumoto Rangiku, who was with Aizen and the Fifth Division of Sakaba, could not suppress her curiosity.

"Teacher, Captain Higashi Joe and Captain Zaraki's battle was clearly a draw, and Captain Higashi Joe also seemed to have lost the ability to continue fighting. Why was he awarded the victory?"

"You're looking at the issue too one-sidedly, Rangiku."

"I'm so sorry, teacher."

Having become familiar with Aizen, Rangiku quickly revealed her true nature, displaying a perfunctory attitude and completely disregarding this "gentle captain."

They take it all to heart, and when they speak, they show absolutely no respect for their superiors.

Aizen chuckled and casually explained, "On the surface, Joe Higashi won this battle, but you didn't notice a detail: it wasn't Lieutenant Kotetsu who treated Joe, but Captain Unohana herself."

This shows that in Unohana's eyes, Higashijo's injuries were more severe than Zaraki's.

"Is that so!"

Surprised, Rangiku thought about it carefully and realized it was true, but this only confused her more: "Then according to that logic, Captain Zaraki should have been the winner, so why is this happening?"

"Tsk, what have you actually learned these past few years?"

"teacher!!!"

"From now on, you should call me Captain."

""

Seeing Aizen so angry he was about to complain to Gin Ichimaru, she shook her head and stopped teasing her: "Let me give you an example. Imagine two people are fighting each other. One is seriously injured, while the other is paralyzed and unable to move, yet completely unharmed. Who can kill whom?"

"Well"

Seeing Rangiku's thoughtful expression, Aizen knew that she probably understood something.

"Dongzhang is very strong, much stronger than Zangmu."

"If he wants to win, there are many easier ways."

"But Kenpachi Zaraki is special. The captains of the Gotei 13 actually have varying levels of strength, but apart from the Captain-Commander, Kenpachi has a chance of defeating anyone!"

Following Aizen's train of thought, Rangiku subconsciously asked, "Why?"

"Because the battles of Shinigami are battles of spiritual pressure!"

Aizen's voice suddenly turned several degrees colder as he entered the Fifth Division, causing Matsumoto Rangiku to pause slightly.

This is an ironclad rule of the Shinigami! No matter whether Joe Higashi reached the limit of 04+, and no matter how dazzling and wonderful Joe Higashi's moves are, it cannot change the fact that his spiritual pressure is far inferior to that of Kenpachi Zaraki! Can the spiritual pressure of a talent with spiritual pressure be compared to that of a talent with +? Moreover, even though both are at + level, Isshin Shiba is inferior to Kenpachi Zaraki at his peak in terms of spiritual pressure. For this monster, Shikai and D-kai are really just abilities.

Because Kenpachi Zaraki, this monster, unlocked almost all of his spiritual pressure simply by maintaining his nameless Shikai.

This madman subconsciously suppressed his spiritual pressure simply to enjoy the thrill of battle.

Even so, his spiritual pressure is still stronger than Joe's! His strength is not an exaggeration. Kenpachi Zaraki's current fighting power is only this much. Only Kenpachi Zaraki is qualified to challenge him and has a chance of winning in this special situation.

He prefers a back-and-forth sword fight, but this guy hates losing even more; his fighting instinct is the biggest unpredictable factor.

Therefore, in order to ensure a 100% victory, Joe Higashi had no choice but to strike decisively, directly crippling the opponent's ability to move.

Joe never expected that Kenpachi Zaraki, despite being covered in wounds and suffering from excruciating pain and weakness, could still stand in front of him. He also never expected that Kenpachi's direct attack could even break through his super special move and almost kill him instantly.

Kenpachi Zaraki is interesting.

Chapter 402 The Arrogant Void 1/3

The fact that a combat squad that had been around for so many years suddenly changed its name didn't cause much of a stir for a while.

The Shinigami who remain in the Eleventh Division are generally Shinigami who specialize in swordsmanship, and those who specialize in Kido, Shunpo, etc., are also very self-aware.
