Before starting this training, Duan Mu imagined that the guidance, although there must be some head-to-head discussions, most of the time should be... Unohana Retsu, as usual, gently taught himself the techniques of cutting.
result……
After starting his practice, the guidance Duan Mu received can be described in two words.
——Beheaded!
He was chopped repeatedly until he was severely injured and on the verge of death.
But due to Duan Mu's self-healing ability, it is easy to kill him, but it is extremely difficult to make him seriously injured and on the verge of death.
This also leads to...
Duan Mu has been being chopped down, and even eats every day with a reagent provided by Unohana Retsu. After crushing it, it feels like he is in Hueco Mundo, and he will not feel hungry at all for a short period of time.
.
As for sleeping...
Sorry, not at all!
From the beginning to the end, except for expressing his views on himself on the first day, Uzuki Hana Lie said nothing and continued to attack himself without stopping. This attack will continue until Duan Mu's self-healing ability is no longer possible.
Recover in a short time, lose consciousness and become comatose without investing experience points...
However, this coma will not last long, Duan Mu will wake up again.
Then, continue to face the torrent of attacks!
He didn't even have time to say a word to Uozuka Retsu. As soon as he woke up from the coma, he could see Uozoka Retsu's eyes full of murderous intent and gloom.
However, Duan Mu's proficiency in cutting techniques has also been rapidly improved.
Duan Mu's original plan was to continuously invest his nearly 160,000 experience points into his body to make himself last longer.
But when he actually faced Uozhihua Lie, Duan Mu found that he had thought of the other party too simply.
A scimitar in his hand can be described as ever-changing, and various schools can be used at will. If he simply uses cutting skills to meet the enemy, let alone 160,000, even if it is 1.6 million at Unohana Retsu's level
Under the attack, it would not take more than a few days.
So Duan Mu simply gave up on the method of increasing physical strength, and instead began to delve into the various styles used by Unohana Retsu.
Duan Mu's memory, comprehension ability, and concentration during battle were fully displayed in this kind of non-stop... being chopped.
Basically, you can rely on yourself to understand the areas that you can study clearly. If you encounter areas that cannot be cracked, use a small amount of experience points to help you understand.
This made Duan Mu's cutting skills improve by leaps and bounds.
In just a few days, it was promoted from high-level to top-level.
However……
Still useless!
Whenever Duanmu cracks and masters a style that is barely able to compete with Unohana Retsu who uses the same level of spiritual pressure, Unohana Retsu will immediately switch to the next style.
The beheading techniques she uses are constantly changing.
No matter how fast Duan Mu's cutting skills progress, she can always suppress Duan Mu just right.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion...
I always feel that as the genre continues to change, the murderous intent in Uozhika Retsu's eyes when he looks at me becomes more intense.
This made Duan Mu feel a little panicked. He was really afraid that this person would suddenly be unable to restrain his murderous intention towards him, and then accidentally kill him.
Although like Unohana Retsu, Duan Mu did not use any skills other than cutting techniques, in Duan Mu's feeling...
Even if I try my best, I may not be able to persist for too long under Uozhihua Lie.
Among the entire Gotei 13th Division, the captain of the 'Medical Division' in front of him, who never participated in battles, can be said to be second only to Captain Yamamoto in terms of strength in the Seireitei.
Even in terms of cutting skills alone, she is stronger than Captain Yamamoto!
As Aizen said, each of the four Shinigami techniques of slashing, punching, ghosting, and walking has its strength limit.
And Maozhihualie's cutting technique must have reached the limit of strength and truly touched that layer of barriers.
The best of the best!
Only in this way can he, who has already reached the top level of cutting skills, appear so vulnerable in front of her.
Duan Mu has lost count of how many styles Maozhihualie has used. Since the beginning of the instruction, Duan Mu has devoted all his attention to training in the face of the increasingly murderous intent in Uozhihualie's blade.
because……
The person in front of me really had murderous intentions towards him and wanted to erase his existence.
Although the reason for the murderous intention made Duan Mu feel very unjust.
But under constant attacks, Duan Mu didn't even have a chance to defend himself, and he could only stay awake at the moment he woke up.
It's not that you can't stay awake at other times, but if you want to take Unohana Retsu's attack, you must be highly concentrated during that period and enter that inexplicable state of death.
In this state, Duan Mu can be said to be focused on fighting the Mao Zhihua fiercely, without considering any other factors at all.
Kill, kill, kill...
The battle between him and Unohana Retsu had already left the scope of guidance from the very beginning, and gradually evolved into a fight.
As time went by, Maozhihualie got more and more into the state. Even when the braid in front of her neck fell apart, she did not rearrange it, but let it fall down casually.
The murderous intent is getting more intense!
The gentle, mature, considerate captain of the Fourth Division who gave people a sense of mother-like love in Duan Mu's impression was disappearing little by little.
Instead...
The first generation of Kenpachi and Unohana eight thousand streams.
Just one glance at her long and narrow eyes would give the illusion of a knife blade passing through her body.
The gloomy face completely lost its original beauty, but instead made people feel cold in their hearts.
The breath that hits my face...
The gentle, kind, and unique medicinal scent is completely gone.
But...
The pungent and disgusting smell of blood seems to penetrate deeply into the skin, bone marrow, and even into the soul. Every time it moves, it will set off a fishy wind, and the blood rain will fall from Duan Mu's body.
bloom.
The whole person is like Shura!!
It's hard to imagine how many people she killed.
Although Duan Mu has killed many people in the past ten years, in front of Maozhihualie, he is just like a drop of water in front of the ocean, and cannot be compared at all.
This monster is becoming more and more dangerous and terrifying.
It was as if she was showing her former opponents one by one, and watching the process of their defeat made her gradually wake up.
There are even many times when Unohana Retsu forgets to keep her hand for a moment. Her murderous intent, spiritual pressure, cutting skills...etc., will reach the peak at that moment, but then disappear in an instant, as if
It's just an illusion.
But once or twice, it can still be explained by an illusion.
But as this phenomenon occurred more and more frequently, Duan Mu understood...
If I don't end this guidance as soon as possible, I will most likely die here.
The favorability level did not increase, but the murderous intention became more intense.
This is obviously wrong.
Duan Mu wanted to ask for help and escape, but Uozhihua Lie didn't give him this chance at all.
The moment he regained consciousness, the crazy woman would rush up with a knife and force him into a fighting position.
The entire underground space is now in a mess.
The scope has been much expanded than before. Fortunately, it is located in the center of Shuangshu Hill, which is nearly 2,000 meters away, and there is no sign of collapse.
The entire space was filled with substantial murderous aura emanating from Maozhihualie's body. This murderous aura spread out like a mist, making the whole world covered with blood at this moment.
Duanmu had only felt these things from Zaraki Kenpachi.
But it's nowhere near as rich.
And around Duan Mu, the gray mist that had been hidden in the depths of his soul, and that even Duan Mu himself could not force out, was being unearthed bit by bit under the constant pressure of the crazy woman in front of him.
Even Duan Mu himself didn't notice that the color of his spiritual pressure had changed from the original blue to purple, which was filled with an ominous and terrifying feeling.
The most important thing is...
The spiritual world that has always been isolated from the outside world is also awakening rapidly. As the true meaning of the recast Zanpakutō begins to awaken, the spiritual pressure around Duanmu becomes more and more weird.
Complement each other!
Without Duan Mu even noticing, the spiritual pressure and the new Zanpakutō in the spiritual world reached a certain same frequency like breathing, helping the Zanpakutō to continuously reorganize.
Duan Mu was unaware of all these changes.
But the crazy woman in Duan Mu’s eyes...
But he is far more aware than Duan Mu of the changes that are gradually taking place in him.
Dangerous...but not completely dangerous.
The gray mist formed by the gloomy aura really makes people feel very dangerous, as if it wants to destroy everything.
But as Duan Mu's spiritual pressure continues to be integrated into him, the gray mist emanating from the depths of Duan Mu's soul is also constantly diminishing.
Although the strength of spiritual pressure has not changed, the feeling of spiritual pressure is completely different.
At this time, Duan Mu gave her a feeling that she was in a biological 'metamorphosis' stage, gradually transforming into a metamorphosis. When it breaks out of its cocoon, what will happen...
This is no longer within the scope of Uozhihua Retsu's consideration.
Because, she has a feeling that she is gradually cultivating a monster, a monster that is very similar to herself, and may even surpass herself.
He was experiencing everything he had experienced before, and he was growing up at a speed that shocked her!
Originally, according to Unohana Retsu's prediction, Duan Mu could not last long in the hands of his former 'enemy', and he would not be able to reveal the past one by one in a month.
But Duan Mu has been holding on under this intensity and gradually adapted to it.
From the first day when one person couldn't handle it, now he's now 'defeating' dozens or even hundreds of people a day.
The terrifying self-healing speed, the seemingly inexhaustible spiritual pressure, the extreme mental concentration during battle, and the lack of fluctuation when killing people...
Every time he swung the knife, he swung it with the intention of killing himself.
There was no hesitation at all!
More and more similar...
I don't know if it's because of his unintentional habits that make his sword more and more similar to his own.
This made her almost unable to control herself several times and wanted to kill him.
But the reason why she didn't do this was not because it was a tutorial, nor was it because of Duan Mu's contribution to Soul Society, or any other reason.
She just...
I simply want to see what this monster can become.
Even if he ends up dying in the hands of this monster, it doesn't matter at all.
Just like Zaraki once was!
As for whether this monster might have any impact, Unohana Retsu didn't care at all.
Because, she would be the first to stand in front of him if she personally cultivated... no, rather excavated the monster.
This made Mao Zhihualie look forward to it even more.
Must exercise restraint...
Not enough...
It’s not harvest season yet!
Although it may be that when the harvest season comes, it will be the end of oneself.
But there is no fear or regret.
Some are just happy...
Extremely happy!
Meeting Zaraki Kenpachi made her feel unprecedented joy. Fighting with him was like her own child fighting with her.
When he dug out all the potential in Duan Mu and watched him become more and more like himself, and could even predict that the other person might surpass him instead of stagnating like himself, Unohana Retsu felt unprecedented happiness.
The stronger the happiness, the more she wants to kill Duan Mu.
Or...
Killed by the opponent!
All along, Unohana Retsu has been waiting, waiting for the true inheritance, waiting for the day when Zaraki will truly inherit 'Kenpachi', and waiting for...his own death.
Because that is the sin she must pay for.
Paying off one's sins has certainly been Unohana Retsu's long-cherished wish.
But Duan Mu's growth process and the ultimate happiness it gave her made her want to pay for her sins...
After stepping on his body, you can pay for your own sins.
Or...
Let him step over his own body to help her pay for her sins!
A surge of blood bloomed silently.
Duan Mu fell into a pool of blood again, and the blood under his body gathered into a coquettish and strange flower, which appeared in front of Maozhihualie.
The scimitar trembled slightly, then gradually fell down after being raised.
Not enough~
Far from enough!
…
At this time, Duan Mu didn't know that he was on the line of life and death, constantly jumping sideways.
This time, he was not completely unconscious as usual.
Instead, he entered a space.
This is a forest, a gray forest, filled with towering giant trees.
The giant trees are connected into one piece, with almost no gaps to move around.
As far as the eye can see, everything appears gray.
The soil is gray, the grass is gray, the flowers are gray... the whole space gives people a suffocating sense of death, without any vitality at all.
but……
The sky is blue, white clouds are floating, the sun and moon are bright, and the stars are dazzling!
Full of vitality.
Death and life, two completely different pictures, combined together, gave Duan Mu an indescribable weirdness.
At this moment, the sound of grass suddenly came from this dead space.
Duan Mu, who was stunned by the sight in front of him, subconsciously looked towards where the sound was coming from, and saw a puppy rolling out from the gray grass, screaming happily and jumping up and down, so happy!
The puppy is all white, about the size of Duan Mu's paws, and has a pair of bright purple pupils, full of lively vitality.
When it appeared, the sky seemed to become brighter, as if the sun and the moon were shining their light on it.
Even the surrounding giant dead trees began to sway due to its arrival, and the leaves made a pleasant sound of rustling.
but……
All this came to an abrupt end in the next second!
"Ouch~~"
The little white dog who was playing saw Duan Mu, and suddenly screamed, trembling all over, but did not run away, and looked at Duan Mu with a pair of watery eyes.
The tail and ears drooped at this moment.
"Ouch~~"
Looking at the trembling little white dog, Duan Mu's expression suddenly became a little strange.
Although it was completely different from what he remembered, when he appeared here, he was already vaguely aware of where this place was.
but……
What the hell is this thing?
"Woof woof woof~~"
As if aware of Duan Mu's thoughts, the little white dog suddenly put on a fierce look and roared several times to prove his identity.
"I……"
Just as Duan Mu was about to say something, he felt the surrounding space darken, and his whole body seemed to be suddenly pushed and flew out.
Then……
Buzz~
The sound of the blade breaking through the air came, leaving Duan Mu no time to think. He slapped his palm on the ground and jumped up, and the ghost blade condensed out instantly!
