Bleach: After Retiring From Zero Division, Aizen Came To Study

Chapter 13: The Essence Of Kidō, The Power Of True Name



Sōsuke looked at Arima and fell into deep thought.

There was a trace of depression in his eyes. He thought that Arima, like his Kidō teacher, could not answer this question.

Unexpectedly, Arima's voice sounded in his ears, "Before answering your question, you must understand the nature of Kidō."

"The essence of Kidō?"

Sōsuke looked at Arima in confusion.

Arima met Sōsuke's curious gaze and said, "Although this is not a secret that a Mao student like you at your age can know, but since you have asked, I don't mind answering you."

Arima continued: "Kidō is one of Shinigami's methods of using spiritual power to fight. By chanting, he mobilizes his own spiritual power and releases it to form a powerful spell."

"In this process, Shinigami's own spiritual power and the chanting mantra are indispensable."

"For those who have strong control over their own spiritual power, they can give up chanting, but by giving up chanting, they only give up the subsequent incantation. The name of the Kidō that is cast still has to be recited."

"The reason for this is because language, or in other words, names, contains power!"

"There is power in the name?" This was the first time Sōsuke heard this statement and he was very puzzled.

Arima continued: "The specific reason is not easy to explain to you for the time being, but you can know that nameless things are powerless, and everything has its true name. Only by mastering its true name can we grasp its true power. ."

"Just like Shinigami's Zanpakutō, only when the wielder knows its true name through long-term communion with the sword, can he be liberated and transform the sword from a sealed state into his own Zanpakutō."

"Kidō's name is his true name, and the incantation is a process of awakening his true name and leveraging his power.

If he abandons chanting and directly calls his true name, although it can also leverage part of his power, it will not It is not comprehensive, which is why the power of Kidō after abandoning chanting is not as powerful as that of complete chanting."

Sōsuke didn't know when he fell into a state of silence. He listened carefully to what Arima said.

This kind of knowledge was something he had never seen or heard in textbooks or from Teacher Kidō of Spiritual Arts Academy.

This allowed him to understand the true meaning of Kidō chanting for the first time.

The reason why Kidō chants is because it is calling his true name.

Gain Kidō's power by calling his true name.

So what is Kidō itself?

Why can you gain power simply by calling your true name?

A new question arose in Sōsuke's mind.

Arima did not discuss this issue. If he knew the doubts in Sōsuke's heart, he would definitely tell Sōsuke that Kidō itself is a law, but it is indeed one of the laws man-made in this world of spirits.

The person who created it is the leader of the Zero Division, the oldest and first Shinigami in the world, Ichibei Hyōsube.

Ichibei Hyōsube has the ability to name everything.

In the eyes of Ichibei Hyōsube, names, or their carrier words, have great power.

The reason why the elephant is powerful is because it is called an elephant. If its name is erased and rewritten as an ant, then it will become extremely weak. Therefore, the name is an extremely important thing. It represents the existence of the thing itself.

Whether its existence is strong or not is related to its name.

This name is not a human name that can be changed at will, but the essence of its existence, its "true name".

Kidō is a power created by Ichibei Hyōsube.

After it is created, it exists between heaven and earth.

Only by calling its true name can this power respond, and based on the description of the true name, the power itself is controlled by Shinigami.

This is also a fighting method created by Ichibei Hyōsube for Shinigami.

Unlike Quincys, Shinigami can strengthen its own Reiatsu by swallowing it, and can naturally manipulate Reiatsu to form Cero.

It's not like the Quincy has the ability to arbitrarily manipulate the spirits between heaven and earth, gathering and transforming them.

Although Shinigami possesses spiritual powers, it is difficult to use them effectively.

The appearance of Kidō gives Shinigami an additional skill to use spiritual power to fight.

However, not all Kidō were created by Ichibei Hyōsube. He only gave Kidō the necessity of existence and added a power system to the world. Later strong men, after understanding the nature of Kidō, can also use it to Create your own Kidō by writing taboos.

Today, many of Soul Society's Kidō, Bakudō and the more mysterious Kaidō were pioneered by latecomers.

But for ordinary Shinigami, they still learn the existing Kidō according to the script, and they don't think about why Kidō needs to be chanted, and why the power of Kidō becomes weaker if it abandons chanting.

Sōsuke finished digesting many words said by Arima, and some of the questions in his heart were answered. At least he knew the reason why Kidō's power would become weaker after completely chanting or abandoning chanting, but at the same time, there were many new things. question.

He wanted to ask Arima something, but in the end he restrained himself.

Because Sōsuke remembered what Arima said earlier.

This is not a secret that a Academy student of his age can know.

In other words, there are huge secrets behind these problems.

It is not a good thing to force yourself to ask questions.

But on the other hand, there were so many unknown secrets in this world, which aroused his thirst for knowledge even more.

"Thank you for your teaching, Arima-sensei!"

Sōsuke bowed to Arima respectfully again.

Arima said with a smile: "Don't be so polite. This is not a teaching. Even if you don't understand these principles now, you will understand them sooner or later in the future."

After all, you are Aizen, with a thirst for knowledge that ordinary people cannot match.

In order to explore the truth of this world and its true face, I don't know how many things I have done.

At this moment, the young Sōsuke did not understand what Arima thought of him, but because of Arima's teachings, he was sincerely grateful to Arima.

The change brought about is that when the spring break is over and Arima is in class, apart from a few students who are really interested in calligraphy, there is another familiar figure.

Aizen Sōsuke!
