You first need to understand how all this works before translating to Java code.
Have a look at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.3/docs-update-by-query.html

Once you found the right syntax, you can share the code with us and we can hopefully help you to transform to Java code but it should be easy.

It's probably something like:

POST twitter/_update_by_query
{
  "script": {
    "source": "ctx._source.salary+=100",
    "lang": "painless"
  },
  "query": {
    "range": {
      "age": {
        "gte": 25
      }
    }
  }
}
