Bleach: Why I, Kurosaki Ichigo, am not the harem king Chapter 039

Ichigo listened as Retsu Unohana simply recounted the events of that year.

After hearing everything, Ichigo frowned. This was completely different from the fragmented information he had heard from Yoruichi, even diametrically opposed!

“Sister Retsu, I know the Yoruichi Shihouin you mentioned. She told me that when she defected from the Soul Society back then, she was completely framed!”

Hearing Ichigo’s words, Retsu Unohana felt even more strongly that this matter was not simple.

“Framed?” Retsu Unohana narrowed her eyes slightly.

“Could there be some connection here?”

Retsu Unohana pondered for a while, then decided that she didn’t have enough information and stopped thinking about it.

After all, it had little to do with her. If it weren’t related to Ichigo, she probably wouldn’t bother with such things at all.

“Alright, Ichigo, I’ve done as I said and taken you to see Rukia. Can you satisfy my curiosity now?” Retsu Unohana looked at Ichigo and asked.

Ichigo nodded, “Sister Retsu, what do you want to know? If I know, I’ll definitely tell you.”

“I want to ask you, how did you pass through the barrier of the Sakki Stone and enter the Seireitei?” Retsu Unohana asked curiously.

“You should know, since the Seireitei was established, you are the first Shinigami to achieve this!”

Hearing this, Ichigo was a little surprised, “Only I have done it?”

Retsu Unohana nodded. After all, she had witnessed the establishment of the Gotei 13. For so many years, only Ichigo had managed to do this.

Ichigo extended his hand, and under Retsu Unohana’s astonished gaze, a part of the surrounding space collapsed.

Then, Ichigo dispersed the spiritual power in his hand, looking slightly troubled, “I don’t know how this ability appeared, but it was with this power that I opened the barrier of the Sakki Stone!”

Retsu Unohana exclaimed, “A rare spatial ability?”

Ichigo himself didn’t understand it very well, let alone explain it to Retsu Unohana.

Not only that, Retsu Unohana’s curiosity grew even stronger.

“You didn’t release your Zanpakuto just now, which means this is your own power. But you are just a human, at most a Shinigami. How could you possess such a powerful ability!” Retsu Unohana said in surprise.

Indeed, one question was resolved, and more questions arose.

Ichigo was equally puzzled, “I just thought I could get through at the time, so I tried it, and then I came over. I’m not entirely sure what this ability can specifically do yet.”

Retsu Unohana looked at Ichigo as if she were looking at some rare species.

“How about this, I’ll teach you swordsmanship, and you let me see how you develop this ability of yours?” Retsu Unohana’s curiosity was piqued.

After all, this was the first time she had seen an ability that didn’t rely on a Zanpakuto at all, and it wasn’t like a Quincy’s ability either.

After all, Ichigo had nothing of a Quincy about him.

However, when Retsu Unohana said this, Ichigo reluctantly asked, “Sister Retsu, is your swordsmanship very good?”

These words almost made Retsu Unohana laugh out loud. Since the advent of swordsmanship, it was the first time anyone dared to ask her such a question!

It should be known that even Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto was only comparable to Retsu Unohana in swordsmanship, perhaps even slightly inferior.

Did he not understand the value of Yachiru Unohana’s name?

She couldn’t defeat Kenpachi Zaraki because of spiritual pressure, not because of swordsmanship!

“It looks like I’ll have to show you a thing or two!” Retsu Unohana’s emotions fluctuated for the first time in a long while, and the smile on her face turned terrifying.

This sudden change in expression startled Ichigo. Good heavens, even though it was the same smile, why did it feel so full of killing intent!

“Follow me!” Retsu Unohana stood up and led Ichigo into the house.

Pressing a switch inside the house, Retsu Unohana led Ichigo to her home’s basement.

Although it wasn’t as large as Kisuke Urahara’s basement, it was certainly not small.

The basement was decorated in the style of a kendo dojo, with bamboo wooden swords lining the shelves.

Retsu Unohana walked over and casually picked one up, then said to Ichigo, “Pick a wooden sword and come over. I’ll test your swordsmanship first!”

Ichigo still walked over reluctantly. After all, he knew that the Fourth Division was just a medical division. Even the captain, would she really have powerful swordsmanship?

With this question in mind, Ichigo picked up a wooden sword and walked over like a greenhorn.

Seeing Ichigo like this, Retsu Unohana gritted her teeth, determined to give Ichigo a good show!

“We’ll start when you’re ready!” Retsu Unohana said with a smile, as if coaxing a child.

“I should probably go easy on her…” Ichigo thought to himself.

After all, she had just helped him. If he defeated Sister Retsu in one go, it wouldn’t look good for her, would it?

However, what Ichigo didn’t expect was…

“Whack!”

With just one strike, Retsu Unohana directly knocked the wooden sword out of Ichigo’s hand!

“Distracted, you deserve that!”

Retsu Unohana’s wooden sword gently tapped Ichigo’s forehead!

“No, this, I…” Ichigo looked at Retsu Unohana with a look of disbelief, the wooden sword lying on the ground testifying to Ichigo’s bewilderment.

Good heavens, he was instantly defeated!

Although he hadn’t used spiritual power, he was still instantly defeated!

“Sister Retsu, you’re so amazing!” Ichigo exclaimed.

Although he wasn’t completely serious just now, it wasn’t just anyone who could knock his wooden sword away!

Retsu Unohana’s strike just now was perfectly timed!

A fraction of a second faster and it wouldn’t have been perfect, a fraction of a second slower and it wouldn’t have been achieved.

Just this short strike, in Ichigo’s eyes, had a sense of returning to simplicity!

It had a feeling of “heavy sword without edge, great skill without artifice”!

However, this level of swordsmanship was found in a woman!

This was what Ichigo found unbelievable, but now Ichigo no longer dared to underestimate Retsu Unohana.

He quickly picked up the wooden sword and apologized, “Sister Retsu, I apologize for my previous underestimation of you. I apologize, and I will be serious from now on!”

Seeing Ichigo become serious, Retsu Unohana nodded, and her wooden sword struck again!

This time, Ichigo was fully alert, and easily blocked Retsu Unohana’s wooden sword.

However, Retsu Unohana’s wooden sword slid along Ichigo’s wooden sword, using Ichigo’s momentum to sweep towards his face!

This change in technique caught Ichigo off guard, but his reaction speed was also extremely fast. He fiercely flicked his wooden sword, directly shattering Retsu Unohana’s plan!
