"You're going to take the job. ”

"I just think this kid's situation is a bit interesting, but if he doesn't perform as well as I want, then I'll throw him back to you. ”

"Oh, is it really good to be so cruel to your dear former vice-captain's son?"

"You also said it, just a 'former vice-captain'. ”

The conversation between the two people was very low, and Kisuke Urahara didn't know where to find his folding fan again, blocking his mouth, and Ichigo Kurosaki, who was standing in the distance, not only couldn't hear it, but he couldn't even 'read his lips' - anyway, Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't have this ability, right?

He was just surprised by one thing: when did that Mr. Ethan run up behind the store manager Urahara? He didn't notice it at all.

Just when he guessed that this person's strength might be very strong, Kurosaki Ichigo was surprised to find that the slashing knife in Urahara's assistant had changed back to the appearance of a crutch.

"Why? Don't you keep fighting?"

"No, Mr. Ethan will be in charge of your training next. ”

"Huh?"

Before Ichigo Kurosaki understood the current situation, Kisuke Urahara had already run to the side and put on a look of watching the excitement.

"This, Mr. Ethan?"

"Don't doubt it, I'll be in charge of your training next. ”

Ethan, who was holding his arm in front of him, was just swept up and down by the other party's gaze, and Kurosaki Ichigo had a strange feeling that the other party had seen through his whole body, as if no matter what secrets he had, he would be known by the other party under this glance.

"Uh, what's next?"

Since someone else is in charge of their own training, does it mean that the inexplicable battle before is over?

"Simple. ”

Ethan gestured to the man next to him, and then he took a strange board and walked over.

It was an ordinary-looking slab, and the only thing special about it was that it had a very sharp awl on it.

When Ryotetsusai placed the board on the ground, Ethan beckoned to Ichigo Kurosaki to come over.

"What is this?"

"A tool to help you cultivate. Seeing that Kurosaki Ichigo's face was full of puzzlement, Ethan also explained: "This is a board and sharp cone made of special materials, which can withstand quite powerful spiritual impacts. ”

Actually, there are other effects, but those things will do well later.

"Uh...... What's the use?"

"The next thing you have to do is simple. ”

Kurosaki Ichigo quietly waited for Ethan's next words, but fortunately, Ethan and Urahara Kisuke were completely different, and did not explain with exaggerated and exaggerated expressions, but calmly described what Kurosaki Ichigo was going to do next.

"You just have to do a handstand on this cone. ”

"Handstand?" Kurosaki Ichigo's head was full of question marks: "On this cone?"

He didn't quite understand what Ethan meant, could it be that he was using this sharp cone as a deterrent?

"Not what you think!"

Ethan could see at once that Ichigo Kurosaki was thinking wrong, and in desperation, he had to give him a demonstration in person: Ethan put his left hand behind his back, and then pointed his right index finger on the sharp tip of the cone, and then slowly turned into an upside-down state.

All the weight of the whole body is concentrated on the index finger of the right hand, and the tip of the index finger of the right hand is a sharp cone, this picture is too impactful, this is not something that people can do at all, right?

"This ...... How?"

It's obviously not something that humans can do, but it's really happening right in front of their eyes, and Ethan has shown it perfectly, so what 'impossible to do' goes without saying, Kurosaki Ichigo is curious about how Ethan did it?

"Keep an eye on your fingertips!"

Kisuke Urahara kindly gave a hint, and if you let Ichigo Kurosaki figure it out, I don't know how much time it will waste.

Kurosaki Ichigo, who got the hint, soon discovered the truth: Ethan's fingertips concentrated strong spiritual power, and it was with the cushion and stability of Reiko that Ethan was able to stand upside down on the sharp awl with one index finger.

Kurosaki Ichigo understood the key, and Ethan got down from the awl, and then made a 'please' gesture to Kurosaki Ichigo.

"Me?"

Pointing at himself, seeing Ethan nodding at himself, Kurosaki Ichigo still felt that this action was incredible, and he still didn't know what to do.

More importantly, he wondered what the point of doing it was.

"Meaning?"

Ethan shook his head helplessly.

"If you don't, you'll be beaten to death by me. ”

"Hahaha, you really love to open ......"

Kurosaki Ichigo didn't finish his words, and suddenly felt a large blue light flash in front of him, and then he felt as if he had been punched countless times all over his body, and the whole person flew out directly.

Boom!

Ichigo Kurosaki, who flew upside down and fell to the ground, slowed down for a while before getting up.

"What are you doing?"

"You only have two options. Kurosaki Ichigo found that Ethan was already standing in front of him: "Cultivate the way I say, or you can beat me...... No, as long as you can hurt me, even if it's a broken layer of skin, you don't have to cultivate according to my requirements. ”

Ichigo Kurosaki grinned and re-grasped the slashing moon behind his back in his hand.

"I choose...... I'm going to knock you down!"

The heavy blade slashed directly at Ethan, and I don't know if it was Kurosaki Ichigo's extraordinary performance under his emotional outburst, although this knife did not launch the crescent moon sky, but the spiritual power contained in the moon slashing was also strong enough to burst out with dazzling light.

The ferocious spiritual power wantonly set off a strong wind, as if to remind everyone around how powerful this knife is, even Kurosaki Ichigo, who wielded this knife, felt that his attack was very strong, and if Ethan couldn't avoid it, he would definitely be injured by his attack......

"It can't be!"

Ethan didn't dodge, he just raised his hand slightly, and then caught Kurosaki Ichigo's knife with that very ordinary fleshy palm, even the huge spiritual power contained in the knife did not have any impact on Ethan - the strong momentum was all scattered around, and Ethan, who was close at hand, was like a majestic mountain, and he didn't even move a single hair.

"It's happening right in front of your eyes, why don't you want to believe it?"

Ethan's raised hand shook lightly and grabbed the blade of the slashing moon, the sharp slashing moon was like a blunt knife without a blade, which was grabbed by him very casually, and even the tender skin of his palm could not be cut by a bit.

"Do you want to continue?"

Ichigo Kurosaki recovered from his shock, and his first instinct was to pull the knife back and continue the fight.

When he made this choice, Ethan thought that he had already made a decision, and put a little more force on his hand, and then there was a crisp sound on the newly born slashing moon.

Crackle!

The obvious crack spread from where Ethan was holding, and Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't believe that the slashing knife he had just gotten in his hands had been broken by someone's hand.

"Do you want to continue?"

For the same question, Kurosaki Ichigo didn't draw the knife hard this time, but his tangled silence was still rejected by Ethan.

Cracking sound!

Ethan's hand was slightly harder, and the middle section of the newly born Cutting Moon was directly crumpled into pieces, and the sharp part of the front end fell to the ground, while the rest was held in the hand of Kurosaki Ichigo who was in a sluggish state.

"Do you want to continue?"

It's the same question again, and this time Kurosaki Ichigo finally responded.

"No...... No. ”

The gap between the two sides is too big, how can this be fought? Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, and he found that facing Ethan facing Kuchigi Hakuya was even more desperate.

"So, as I said, let's start training!"

“......”

Kurosaki Ichigo glanced at the sword in his hand, he didn't know what to do with it - he was communicating with his sword not long ago, but it only took a few moments for the sword to be destroyed, which was really ...... He didn't know how to describe the situation, or his mood at the moment.

I don't know what to do, maybe he can honestly do what Ethan tells him, and his mood can change a little better?

Or rather, he didn't have the heart to think about the mess after he started training.

"Focus your attention on your fingers...... I don't know how to do it, what do you think when you're fighting someone, when you throw a punch? You think that awl is the enemy you're going to knock down. ”

With Ethan's teachings, Ichigo Kurosaki finally knows how to mobilize his spiritual power and concentrate it on one point.

However, compared to Ethan's spiritual power brilliance that was almost imperceptible to the tips of his fingers, or even invisible at all, Kurosaki Ichigo's movement was a bit big, and his entire forearm was wrapped in the spiritual power brilliance that flashed into the blinding eyes, and the spiritual power visible to the naked eye disappeared, and everyone could see that a lot of spiritual power had been wasted.

Ethan didn't open his mouth to remind, but sat down cross-legged not far in front of Kurosaki Ichigo, and just looked at him quietly.

Being stared at like this, Kurosaki Ichigo felt that he was stuck with nails all over his body, as if he shook it slightly, and he would be pierced by several holes in the nails.

However, he didn't know what to say, so he could only honestly continue to stand upside down - he still didn't know what the use of this strange training was, but as long as he completed the training arranged by the other party, he could do it, right? At present, it seems that this training is not very difficult......

Kurosaki Ichigo's thoughts couldn't be hidden from the shrewd guys around him, and Kisuke Urahara directly put on a lively posture: "Oops, Ichigo is going to suffer!"

The training may seem simple, and it is easy at first, but after a while, it becomes painful.

Wasting spiritual power like Ichigo Kurosaki...... It didn't take long to realize how terrible this training was.
