Chapter 164: Ethan's Fame

Looking at the usually special drag Asai Koiji, who was so respectful and polite when facing Ethan, Ichigo Kurosaki was once again curious about Ethan's identity.

When he took advantage of his cultivation to talk about it with Koiji Sani, Koiji looked at Ichigo Kurosaki with an expression of 'you don't know'.

"What? Is he really famous?"

The performances of Madara Kazuku and Aisani Koiji are both reminding Kurosaki Ichigo that Ethan's true identity is definitely not as simple as he said 'just a very ordinary captain'.

"You don't know who he is?"

"All I know is that he was originally the captain of the Thirteenth Team of the Imperial Court. ”

Aisani Koiji is confirmed, and Kurosaki Ichigo really doesn't know.

"Mr. Ethan is indeed a former ...... No, it should be the former captain of the Juban team. ”

The current captain of the Juban team is Hibanya Fushiro, the most famous genius in the corpse soul world at present, the former captain of the Juban team is Shiba Isshin, who suddenly disappeared twenty years ago, and the predecessor is Ethan.

Aisani Koiji did not change the captain of Kurosaki Ichigo's Koko-Juban team, but it was enough for Kurosaki Ichigo to understand that Ethan was the former captain of the Juban team.

"He hasn't been in office for long, but many Grim Reapers' names still remember him. ”

"Why is that?"

According to Koiji Asani's description, Ethan only stayed in the position of the captain of the Juban team for more than ten years, and then left the corpse soul world with the then captain of the 12th team, Urahara Kisuke, and the captain of the second team, Yoichi Shikaedein.

The specific reason is that most of the Grim Reaper doesn't know now, and the few seniors who know about it won't talk about it, only that it seems to be very serious at that time.

Some of the old Shinigami know the details, but 'young people' like Koiji Asai don't know the details.

Hearing Koiji Asai call himself a 'young man', and hearing that he 'only' joined the 13th team of the court for decades, Kurosaki Ichigo always had a strange feeling.

"You haven't explained why Mr. Ethan has only been in the captaincy for a short time, but yet has such a great reputation. ”

"Because Mr. Ethan took in a student while he was captain. ”

"Students?"

Ichigo Kurosaki understood, the focus was on this student.

"This student is amazing?"

Koiji Asai suddenly put on a very serious expression and said a name that shocked Ichigo Kurosaki.

"The current captain of the Rokuban team, Kuchigi Hakuya!"

Whether it's for Koiji Asai or Ichigo Kurosaki, the name Hakuya Kuchigi has a special meaning.

Although Koiji Asai is the vice-captain of the Rokuban team and the deputy of Kuchigi Hakuya, his greatest ambition is to one day surpass Kuchigi Hakuya and prove that he is capable enough to become Rukia's 'friend'.

Maybe he has a deeper thought, but he doesn't dare to think about it so much now, it's just a 'young man' who is frightened by the name of the Kuchiki family.

As for Kurosaki Ichigo, the first time he felt powerlessness was in Kuchigi Hakuya, the gap between the other party and him was so big that it was indescribable, and he didn't even understand what was going on, and the power of the god of death was abolished by the other party.

Although Kisuke Urahara and Ethan appeared one after another, they were still not as impressive as Kuchigi Hakuya.

"I didn't expect it...... Mr. Ethan is that man's teacher?"

"yes, I didn't think of it either...... You're actually his student too. ”

Asai Koiji learned this information from Madara Corner of the eye, and his first reaction was not to believe it, but then he felt that this seemed to be more reasonable, otherwise there was no way to explain why the immature little guy before had improved his strength so quickly.

Now it all makes sense, it turns out that I have found such a powerful teacher!

Although many Grim Reapers, the Reaper of the Soul Court believe that Ethan's reputation is more due to Kuchigi Hakuya, and there are many people who think that even without Ethan, Kuchigi Hakuya, as the head of the Kuchigi family, will not be much worse in his own strength, maybe Ethan is not as powerful as rumored.

But as the vice captain of the Rokuban team, Koiji Asai doesn't think so.

Although he hadn't been in the Rokuban team for a long time, he could feel how much respect Kuchigi Hakuya had for his teacher, because Kuchigi Hakuya often inadvertently mentioned his teacher when he instructed him to cultivate.

In addition, Asai Koiji also stayed in the Eleventh Team, and in addition to Kuchigi Hakuya, the place where Ethan's various rumors spread the most was the Eleventh Team!

Therefore, Aisani Koiji would never think that Ethan actually has no strength, but just happened to accept a good student!

On the contrary, he thought that if Ethan was not powerful, with his background that was completely incompatible with the nobles, it would be impossible for him to become the teacher of the heir of the Kuchiki family, one of the four nobles!

"I want you to guide me in my practice. ”

Aisani didn't want to miss this opportunity, and after explaining Ethan's situation to Ichigo Kurosaki, he came directly to Ethan and respectfully gave a big salute, asking Ethan to give him some guidance.

"Ah, I'm going to teach Ichigo anyway, so you can come along!"

"Huh?"

Asai Koiji has thought about it, he must seize this opportunity, and if Ethan doesn't agree with him, he will be pestered with a dead face.

With such a powerful teacher's guidance, it is definitely much better than your own brainless blind thinking.

never expected that Ethan would agree so happily.

"Teaching one is also teaching, and two are also teaching, anyway, it doesn't make a difference to me......" glanced at Asai Renji in a sluggish state: "What's the matter?"

"No problems, thank you very much!"

Looking at Koiji Asai's respectful attitude, Ichigo Kurosaki suddenly had a feeling that he was actually very lucky.

Because of this feeling, Kurosaki Ichigo showed a lot of seriousness in training next, and took Ethan's casual instructions to heart, which made Ethan feel a little surprised - this kid is not like such an honest and obedient student.

Glancing at Asai Koiji next to him, he understood why.

It was during this kind of training that Kurosaki Ichigo's strength had been steadily increasing until the evening, when a huge spiritual pressure suddenly erupted.

The strong wind that blew on people's cheeks kicked up a large cloud of dust, and when the dust dissipated, it was finally revealed that Ichigo Kurosaki had 'changed' his clothes in the middle.

"Swastika?"

Aisani Koiji looked at Kurosaki Ichigo, who had obviously changed his appearance, and even the slashing knife in his hand became much more slender and small - in fact, it was the size of a normal slashing knife, but the slashing knife that Ichigo originally used was too big.

"Probably not!"

If it was the original Kurosaki Ichigo, he would definitely regard the current state as his own swastika, but now that he has a relatively full understanding of his own power, just now he just used all the power he can already control together, and this change has occurred.

"This posture of yours now shows that your spiritual power has become more condensed. ”

Ichigo's slashing knife is so big, in the final analysis, he doesn't have enough control over his own spiritual power, and he barely maintains the huge spiritual power into the appearance of a knife.

At this state, he can be regarded as truly entering the door, and he can condense his 'Soul Slashing Knife' into a 'normal state'.

"Plus, this outfit can boost your speed and attack power!"

Just like the blood suit of the Exterminator, the posture of Ichigo Kurosaki is actually the blood suit of the Reaper, which can be regarded as the initial fusion of the power of the Reaper and the power of the Exterminator.

As for the black ...... That should be the part of power that symbolizes the void, although the power of the void in Kurosaki Ichigo's body now accounts for a small proportion, but the impact is still obvious.

"You can try it, and if you really have enough control over your powers, this stance should also boost your defense. ”

The Static Blood Outfit can greatly increase your defense, and you can even be completely immune to attacks by people with lower spiritual pressure than you.

The 'Blood Outfit' of the Exterminator is a very useful ability, but the disadvantage is that these two states cannot coexist, and only one of them can be activated at the same time.

But Kurosaki Ichigo's situation is more special, Ethan thinks he can open two blood suits at the same time - more than the need to infuse spiritual power into the blood, but the form of the coat is close to the effect, so it is not impossible to activate it at the same time.

It is that two completely different spiritual power operation methods are enabled at the same time, and the requirements for the operation ability of spiritual children are high.

"But...... This guy is still fooling Ichigo......"

Slashing Moon said that he would release more power for Ichigo to use without reservation, but now it seems that it is still based on the power of the Exterminator, but Ethan is too lazy to care.

After Ichigo Kurosaki's 'strength has increased greatly', Koiji Asai has finally mastered the swastika.

Compared to Kurosaki Ichigo's temporary cramming, Koiji Asai was only one step away from the swastika, and after having Ethan's guidance, he successfully pierced half of the window paper and mastered the incomplete baboon king snake tail pill.

Of course, Aisani Koiji didn't know that his swastika was incomplete, and after mastering the swastika he was ready to kill and go to the confession palace to save Rukia.

"You're in this state of death. ”

"I know that I have just mastered the swastika, and I am definitely not as good as the captain of the rotten wood who has mastered the swastika for an unknown amount of time......"

"No!" Ethan raised his hand to stop Asai Koiji's words, "I mean, you haven't cultivated to a swastika at all, and it's a shame to take out this kind of half-baked thing." ”

"What?"

Asai Koiji didn't expect Ethan to say that he didn't master the swastika, but he had obviously practiced it?

"Your spiritual pressure increase is too low, and this is not something that you have just learned to explain. Koiji ...... Does your Slashing Knife have two consciousnesses?"

Ethan's words reminded Koiji, and he immediately understood what was going on: he had only been approved by one of the two 'people'.
