Chapter 14: I Mean, Everyone Here is Trash!
Boom!!
A hurricane erupted, roaring and surging, with violent winds surging from Kisaragi Akira, transforming into chaotic air currents that continuously blasted in all directions.
Matsushita Takeo's heavy punch missed, leaving his front wide open. Akira seized the opportunity and landed a direct punch on his broad chest.
There was no burst of spiritual pressure, only the pure force of the body, known as spiritual body strength.
The world of Shinigami is strange. When people die in the living world, their souls leave their bodies and come to the Soul Society.
But if you think the souls in the Soul Society are purely spiritual, you are greatly mistaken.
Most things in the Soul Society are composed of spiritual particles, while most things in the living world are composed of physical particles.
When souls come to the Soul Society, their bodies are reconstructed from spiritual particles.
This means that whether they are commoners or nobles in the Soul Society, their main components are spiritual particles and souls.
When not using spiritual pressure to fight, the strength of the spiritual body becomes the key to determining the outcome of the battle!
Takeo felt as if he had been hit head-on by a charging rhino.
The violent power contained in Kisaragi Akira's fist was not inferior to his own, and even surpassed it.
In an instant, his eyes bulged, filled with countless blood vessels, adding a unique color to his eyes.
His thick, large feet were firmly planted on the ground, creating two deep grooves under the immense force.
"Cough, that was quite a punch!"
Takeo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then tore off his blue and white school uniform, revealing his burly body, exuding a strong sense of oppression like a fierce beast.
"But, I am a man who will become a captain!"
(t/n: mc: shutup Klein you aren't even the main character... shit wrong verse)
His roar was like thunder, echoing throughout the battlefield, making people feel moved by his stance.
In contrast, Kisaragi Akira on the opposite side had a bewildered expression, staring at his right fist in confusion, as if he was fighting for the first time and couldn't understand the situation.
This contemptuous attitude immediately angered Takeo's friends, who started cheering and cursing, making the surroundings noisy.
Aizen watched the figures in the Kido barrier with calm eyes, a thoughtful emotion flashing in his eyes.
He didn't understand.
Why did Kisaragi Akira undergo such a significant change after communicating with Asauchi?
Not only did his spiritual pressure double, but even his spiritual body seemed more cohesive, and the power contained in his body had doubled, far exceeding before.
What exactly happened?
Clearly, Kisaragi Akira was also pondering this question.
But with his limited knowledge and somewhat empty mind, he couldn't figure out what had happened.
(t/n: the og author isn't even denying at this point)
Even though the change came from himself.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore."
Kisaragi Akira gave up on killing his brain cells further.
(t/n: he has more than one brain cell. Damn i'm amazed. Most mc usually only have one brain is controlled by his libido)
He clapped his hands and then waved at Takeo, signaling:
"Come on, big guy, let's continue."
Takeo's breath turned into two thick white streams, and he looked like an enraged bull, with Division member-level spiritual pressure wrapping around his body, enhancing his already strong power.
With a heavy stomp, his burly body shot forward like a cannonball, heading straight for Akira.
Takeo bent his right arm forward, aiming a powerful elbow strike at the relatively shorter Akira.
His momentum was fierce and unstoppable, making it seem like nothing could block his attack.
He maximized his advantage, and this strike would be his strongest attack ever!
Seeing the massive shadow charging at him, Akira didn't confront it head-on as before. Instead, he stepped back and bent his legs slightly.
Then, to everyone's surprise, he leaped into the air, narrowly avoiding the fierce elbow strike.
Takeo looked up, his eyes fierce and his face savage, immediately trying to attack the airborne Kisaragi Akira again.
With his tall body and explosive power, combined with his unusually long arms, he could easily reach several meters high.
However, Akira didn't give him the chance. As he leaped into the air, his excited voice rang out:
"Take this—"
"Shin'en no Kōgeki!!"
(t/n: og was flying crow or crow is flying but this is way cooler. it means Abyssal Assault btw)
Matsushita Takeo's eyes widened. He didn't catch what Kisaragi Akira shouted, but the intense pressure reminded him of the first time he encountered a Hollow.
A terrifying body several times larger than his own, a strong smell of blood, violent, savage, suffocating!
Instinctively, he crossed his arms in front of him, trying to block Kisaragi Akira's attack.
The next moment.
Crack!
Boom!
It was like a meteor crashing down, as strong winds rose, and countless dust clouds rolled up like magma erupting from a volcano. Amidst the violent impact, shockwaves spread in all directions.
Takeo's arms broke instantly upon collision, showing irregular bruises, and his burly body fell heavily, creating a huge crater on the ground.
When the dust settled, there was silence all around.
Shock, bewilderment, disbelief, incomprehension…
Such expressions and looks constantly appeared on the faces of the onlookers.
Aizen sighed, rubbing his forehead, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Things seemed to be spiraling out of control again.
"Anyone else?"
As Kisaragi Akira gradually got used to his increased power, his confidence soared.
Everyone present, one by one, was trash!
Meanwhile, on a building north of the duel barrier, two figures stood by the railing, looking over.
"Such Reiryoku "
The speaker was a bald old man, with a long white beard hanging in front of him, white beard and a bald head. He was wearing traditional The Shihakushō, which includes a black kimono and hakama complemented by a captain's haori. His imposing stature and stern expression convey a sense of authority and experience.
"Is this the boy who destroyed the dormitory at Shinō Academy?"
Beside him, a middle-aged man with white hair and golden eyes, looking like a gentleman, bowed respectfully and said:
"Yes, Head Captain."
"Kisaragi Akira is from District 76 of East Rukongai, 'Sakahone,' and is the priest of the local shrine."
The dignified old man lowered his gaze, looking at the figure in the Kido barrier, his half-closed eyes making it hard to discern his emotions.
"The Shinō Academy is flourishing nicely."
"Whether it's Matsushita Takeo or Kisaragi Akira, they will both become members of the Gotei 13 in the near future, defending the justice of the Soul Society."
"Geniuses should be treated differently."
Chōjirō Sasakibe frowned slightly, not understanding the Head Captain's meaning.
Just as he was about to ask, he heard the old man speak again:
"A true genius cannot be nurtured in a greenhouse."
"Experiencing cruelty in advance might help their growth."
================================================================================
Sorry for the late release. For some reason webnovel wasn't loading for me since morning so only the chapters i already scheduled yesterday were uploaded. probably should have finished translating yesterday then scheduled for upload but the couch just felt way too comfy and fell asleep.
[[This is a translation so please don't hate me for the developments. I will try to remove shitty brainrot scenes with better ones but it is from a MTL ... so please no bashing in the comments for the plot. I am just a translator after all.]]
