"Urahara-san, you want me to fight with this guy?"
Carrying his huge Zanpakuto on his shoulder, Kurosaki Ichigo looked at Muyang with eyes full of suspicion.
However, although he said that, the guy in front of him looked a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Kurosaki Ichigo reached out a hand and scratched his head. He looked at Muyang in front of him and thought. However, he did not care about other things. How could he remember the boss of this coffee shop? If it was Suzuki Kusu and Harribel, Kurosaki Ichigo would naturally have an impression. However, the other party was Muyang. He could not remember.
"Hey, Kimura, you've been looked down on."
Kisuke looked at the indifferent Muyang and smiled. Even in the past, Soul Society had never seen anyone look down on Muyang like this. He did not expect to be looked down upon by a rookie like Kurosaki Ichigo in the modern world.
With a faint smile, Muyang ignored Kisuke's teasing and turned to look at Kurosaki Ichigo in front of him.
"Kid, if you don't mind, you can talk big after you defeat me."
"Ah -? A guy like you?"
Although he knew that Kisuke would not do meaningless things, the guy in front of him did not look like a powerful character no matter how he looked at it. It was really difficult for Kurosaki Ichigo to treat him as a powerful enemy.
"My name is Muyang. Please advise me."
Looking at Kurosaki Ichigo in front of him, Muyang's lips curled into a smile. The feeling of violently abusing the protagonist should be good.
"En?"
Seeing the formal appearance of Muyang, Kurosaki Ichigo felt a bit awkward. In the past, he would always directly rush up when he fought with others. How could there be any formal opening remarks?
Moreover, the name 'Muyang' made him feel a sense of familiarity, as if he had heard it somewhere before. Not only that, this name seemed to be a relatively important name. It was just that Kurosaki Ichigo really could not remember it. However, if he could not understand something, he would not think about it. Kurosaki Ichigo had always been like this.
"I am Kurosaki Ichigo. Although I do not know the meaning of Urahara-san doing this, I will cut you down."
He raised his Zanpakuto.
Kurosaki Ichigo said firmly. From Kisuke, he had learned the most important thing in battle - the determination to kill people!
"Good eyesight."
Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo's determined eyes, Muyang praised. This realization was really precious, especially for a 15 year old child.
Seeing the emotion in Muyang's eyes, Kurosaki Ichigo instinctively felt a burst of displeasure in his heart. The man in front of him looked to be only in his twenties, but he just looked at him as if he was looking at a child. This kind of gaze made the teenager who was in his puberty feel unhappy. 15 years old was the age where he yearned to be recognized by others.
His head felt hot. Kurosaki Ichigo kicked hard. The ground under his feet was instantly crushed by Kurosaki Ichigo, leaving only a pile of gravel. His body suddenly rushed forward. In just a blink of an eye, Kurosaki Ichigo had already appeared in front of Muyang. He held his Zanpakuto with both hands and chopped down at Muyang's head.
Zanpakuto in his hand turned into a white light and instantly stuck to Muyang's forehead. However, at this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly felt a trace of regret in his heart. He was too reckless! Because in Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes, this person in front of him seemed to be scared silly by him. Facing his Zanpakuto, he did not even have a reaction.
Just as Kurosaki Ichigo was regretting in his heart, just as his Zanpakuto's blade was about to cut the person in front of him into two pieces, Kurosaki Ichigo saw a figure flash in front of him. That person had already disappeared from his eyes, and he did not even catch a trace of movement.
Boom!!!
Kurosaki Ichigo's Zanpakuto struck the ground, leaving a huge hole in the ground. Looking at the damage caused by his attack, Kurosaki Ichigo did not feel the least bit complacent. Instead, he stood up with a cautious face and assumed a defensive posture.
"What a wise judgment."
Muyang stood not far away. He looked at Kurosaki Ichigo who was quickly putting on a defensive posture. His eyes revealed a touch of satisfaction. Although he had not experienced much actual combat, Kurosaki Ichigo seemed to be born for battle. As long as he was in battle, he could grow rapidly. As long as he continued to fight, he would soon become a powerful Shinigami. Shinigami, who could rival the captain.
In the original work, Kurosaki Ichigo was like this. Whether it was becoming Shinigami, learning Bankai, learning hollowfication... Kurosaki Ichigo's growth was quickly completed in battle time and time again. Only fighting was the fastest way for him to grow.
Similarly, not only Kurosaki Ichigo, everyone was like this. Only fighting was the fastest way to grow. Only through fighting, one's strength would get true growth. Although cultivation would make people stronger, only in actual combat could one's strength really burst out.
In the original work, Shinigami who had cultivated for decades and hundreds of years, the strength amplification was almost imperceptible. After Kurosaki Ichigo appeared, after the plot began, each and every one of them quickly improved in strength in a short period of time. It was like a day, like a cheat, only making people call it unscientific.
The rapid improvement of their strength seemed unscientific, but in fact, the decades and hundreds of years of cultivation that Shinigami had experienced in Soul Society, each and every one of them had a deep precipitation, but they lacked an opportunity, and the series of battles that the protagonist appeared after was that opportunity.
Through one life and death battle after another, they kept cultivating for more than several years, and the profound knowledge that had settled down were all fermented in battles, so the strength would have a blowout period. It seemed that their strength was extremely unscientific in a short period of time. In fact, that was the result of their hundreds of years of experience.
In particular, Rukia and Renji, the improvement of strength was even faster. Of course, there was a reason for the influence of Kurosaki Ichigo's protagonist aura, but more because they were following Kurosaki Ichigo around, experienced more life and death battles, and their strength came from their own fighting savings.
As for Kurosaki Ichigo, although he did not have decades or hundreds of years of savings, he had talent that no one could compare with, and now what Muyang had to do was to let Kurosaki Ichigo experience enough battles in a short period of ten days, turning his talent into real strength.
Hearing Muyang's praise for himself, Kurosaki Ichigo's face was heavy. Through the previous moment, Kurosaki Ichigo already knew that the seemingly harmless guy in front of him was really a guy more terrible than Kisuke. At least Kisuke was strong, but he could still see his movements. As for the guy in front of him, he could not even catch a trace of his movement, just like that night facing Rukia's brother.
Wait...
Thinking of Rukia's brother, Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly thought of something. In his impression, he seemed to have mentioned a person's name before he started.
"What is the relationship between you and Shinigami, whose name is 'Muyang'?"
Thinking back to what the stinky guy said to him that night, Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes suddenly widened. The guy in front of him...
"Being distracted in battle is not a good habit."
Seeing that Kurosaki Ichigo was actually distracted in the battle with him, Muyang said with dissatisfaction. Even when he fought with Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryuusai back then, he was not looked down on like this. Kurosaki Ichigo was really annoying!
"I remember now! I remember who you are!"
Hearing Muyang's words, Kurosaki Ichigo did not respond. Instead, he pointed at him and shouted. The expression on his face was very strange, with some surprise, some anger, and curiosity...
"Oh, I remember it."
Muyang only thought that Kurosaki Ichigo remembered that he was the boss of the 'Anding District'. After all, Kurosaki Ichigo had been there several times. Although he had not communicated with them, he should still have some impression. Unexpectedly, Kurosaki Ichigo's next sentence surprised him.
"I heard Rukia's stinky brother mention your name that night!"
"Oh?"
Hearing Kurosaki Ichigo's words, Muyang was slightly stunned. Why did Byakuyai mention his name to Kurosaki Ichigo?
"It seems that you two know each other."
Seeing the expression on Muyang's face, Kurosaki Ichigo said. Then, he looked at Muyang with an indignant expression and asked, "Who exactly are you? Why do you know that guy? Could it be that you are also sent by Soul Society? You... Ah! Urahara-san, why did you hit me?"
Kurosaki Ichigo covered his head and looked at Kisuke with dissatisfaction. He said it well, but who knew that Kisuke would suddenly come up and hit his head.
"That is all in the past. Don't ask about it. When you know it, you will naturally know. What you have to do now is to accept Kimura's training."
Seeing that Kurosaki Ichigo wanted to say more, Kisuke suddenly turned and walked away, only a sentence came over.
"By the way, I will reveal a little bit to you. That night, the one who beat you to the ground was called Kuchiki Byakuya, the current captain of 6th Division of Gotei 13."
Hearing Kisuke's words, Kurosaki Ichigo was shocked. Before, Kisuke had roughly told him about the structure of Gotei 13. He also knew what the captain meant. He was one of the thirteen strongest people standing at the top of Seireitei.
"As for the person in front of you, he was the teacher of Kuchiki Byakuya."
