Chapter 166 Trinity, the power to break limits!
Many years ago, out of curiosity about Hueco Mundo.
At that time, Aizen volunteered to follow Yoruichi, Kuchiki Ginrei and others to the Hueco Mundo.
Not much happened during this trip to Hueco Mundo.
From the very beginning, they determined their target and headed towards the center of Hueco Mundo, a palace called Hueco-Sapphire Palace.
It is also in this palace.
Aizen saw a power beyond the norm.
The reason why it is said to be beyond the norm is that when the mask of the void is broken, the existence of the void itself does not collapse or annihilate, but instead gains even more powerful power.
Since then, Aizen has always kept this incident in mind.
He continues to conduct various experiments in Soul Society, trying to break the boundaries.
Unexpectedly, because of Xia Mu, what he did was exposed.
Accept the punishment obediently?
Obviously it is impossible.
Aizen himself is not a person who likes to follow the rules. If he was willing to follow the rules, he would not have done so many prohibited experiments in secret.
So, when he found that there was no place for him in Soul Society, he decisively left Soul Society.
There are too many places to go after that.
There are many small worlds in the Dangkai, such as the small world of Jiaogu. Although the number of reishi there is not as good as that in the Soul Society, there are still some reishi. In the past, the Soul Society had exiled many criminals to such worlds, so this place can barely be considered a place to go.
There is also Hueco Mundo, the real world, and the extremely mysterious hell that we were able to glimpse from our ancestor Tsunayashiro.
In the end, Aizen chose Hueco Mundo.
There is a shortage of spirit particles in the world today, and there is no suitable material for conducting experiments.
As for hell, if I reach the top in the future, maybe I can go in and explore a little. Aizen is a little curious about that world.
Therefore, in the end, the most suitable place for him to stay is Hueco Mundo.
And in the Hueco Mundo, there just happened to be a Hollow who, because of what happened to Tsunayashiro Tokinada, was very interested in the Hollow breaking its boundaries.
Two like-minded guys got together.
A powerful force burst out immediately.
Aizen and Sal Apollo moved into the Kyon Palace together and renovated the former Bylergan palace.
Although the original Xuye Palace was indeed a palace, it was not very big and its interior layout was very simple.
This is also the reason why Xia Mu was able to easily break through Xuye Palace.
Now that this palace belongs to me, it certainly cannot be so simple.
Aizen is a perfectionist. He benchmarked the Soul Society and expanded the Kurashū Palace. He now spends more time on experiments. If possible, he also wants to add a skylight to the Kurashū Palace so that there will be changes of four seasons in the palace.
After all, a world where it is night all day long is too bleak.
In the laboratory.
Aizen and Sal Apollo stood quietly, looking at the Hollow in front of them.
"Once upon a time, that guy named Tsunayashiro Tokinada was able to use that special substance to help Hollows break their masks and gain powerful strength. After that, I used some of the remaining substances in my hands to conduct similar experiments again, but I found that this state of breaking the mask could not last long. Masks are extremely important to us Hollows. I really want to know if your experiment will be the same?"
Even after coming to Hueco Mundo, Aizen did not change his appearance from Soul Society. He still wore the black Death Hacker costume and thick black-framed glasses. "I have also studied the substance you are talking about. I know what that power is."
"With the help of that power, it is certainly possible to help the Void break through the boundaries, but that power itself is difficult to be compatible with the power of the Void. Therefore, after breaking the boundaries, because its own power cannot coexist, the Void will collapse and die."
"So, today, I am using another kind of power to help Xu break through the boundaries."
Sal Apollo looked at Aizen beside him in confusion.
He actually had a lot of dealings with the god of death.
At the beginning, I had met the seventh generation Kenpachi, Kenpachi Kuriyashiki, through the black cavity, and it was a disguised way for me to witness the power of Kenpachi.
Afterwards, he encountered Tsunayashiro Tokinada in the Great Hollow Forest.
Tsunayashiro Tokinada is a madman, but he sees a lot of interesting things in the other party, so he might as well pretend to be nice and lurk beside the other party to see what the other party wants to do.
As it turned out, it was right that time.
He successfully obtained some special substances from Tsunayashiro Tokinada, which gave him an idea of his future evolutionary path, but soon, through various experiments, he discovered that the evolution completed with the help of this substance was not complete. After the mask was broken, the Hollow that gained powerful strength could not stay in that state forever.
Until, he met Aizen.
Compared to Kenpachi Kuriyashiki and Tokinada Tsunayashiro.
Aizen is a more dangerous person.
His strength is extremely strong and his IQ is unfathomable.
In front of this god of death, Sal Apollo felt that all his disguises had been seen through, and his many preparations seemed to be of no use. But after learning of Aizen's purpose, even if he was not convinced in his heart, he was still willing to help Aizen complete the experiment.
"Ahhhhh!!"
A shrill scream came from the hollow mouth of the experiment in front.
This is an Achucas.
In the Hueco Mundo, his status is not low.
After all, Vastrod is as rare as a phoenix feather and a unicorn horn, while Killian is as numerous as the hairs on a cow. Achukas is the real backbone of Hueco Mundo.
When the scream was heard, a power different from that of the void emerged from its body. As this power exploded, the mask that originally covered its face shattered.
The next moment, a powerful spiritual pressure burst out, covering his body, and even Sal Apollo could not see the other party's appearance clearly.
After a while.
The other party's true face is revealed.
Sal Apollo was stunned.
Only after the Hollow evolves into Vastod will its body size become similar to that of humans. Even so, it still retains many of the Hollow's characteristics.
The mask of the Hollow in front of him was broken, with only some corners remaining on his face. Apart from these corners, the whole being looked very similar to a human. No, rather than a human, it looked more like the god of death.
Just because he was holding a knife in his hand.
That is the god of death’s… Zanpakutō.
"Sure enough, my guess was right."
Seeing the figure in front of him, Aizen sighed in his heart.
When he was in Soul Society, he analyzed a lot of powers and gained a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the world.
Among them, the Zanpakutō of the God of Death is also one of his research objects.
Zanpakutō is the manifestation of the power of the god of death's soul, and the object that carries this power is Asauchi.
What exactly is shallow hitting?
By analyzing the shallow hits.
Aizen was shocked to discover that the material used to cast this sword was... Hollow, or in other words, Hollow that had had all its Hollow powers wiped out, leaving only a blank soul.
Because it is blank, the God of Death can depict the power of his own soul on it, and use this blank soul as a carrier to give birth to the soul of his own Zanpakutō.
So, is it possible to create a Zanpakutō without Asahi?
Now, Aizen had the answer in his heart.
Endowing the Hollow with the power of the God of Death, the Hollow can use this power to break through its own boundaries, allowing the power in its soul to materialize into reality and condense into a weapon. This weapon is surprisingly the Zanpakutō.
"Interesting, so interesting."
After realizing the truth, Aizen suddenly laughed.
Who would have thought that the powers of the Shinigami and the Hollows, two races that fought each other to death, would complement each other in the end?
Hollows can use the power of the God of Death to break boundaries and obtain Zanpakutō.
So, conversely, if the God of Death wants to break the boundaries, does he need to rely on the power of the Hollow?
Of course, simply blurring the image won’t work.
Soul Society had experimented with Hollowification a long time ago, but all the experiments ended in failure with the Shinigami becoming Hollows.
Now, Aizen also knew why the experiment failed.
Because there is still a lack of strength.
Another force is needed to balance the power of the God of Death and the Hollow so that the two forces can merge together.
That is... the power of the Spirit King.
It was also the power that once allowed the Hollows in the Xuye Palace to break through their boundaries.
This was the answer Aizen came to after seeing the special substances in Sal Apollo's hands.
After many years in Soul Society, Aizen initially tried to use the power of multiple Shinigami to achieve a qualitative change. In the process of collecting the power of Shinigami, he discovered that some of the souls of Shinigami contained special substances. Later, he learned the truth about that power from the ancestor Tsunayashiro.
Unfortunately, before he could collect more Spirit King fragments, he had to leave.
But over the years, he still used the collected power of the god of death and some fragments of the Spirit King to create a piece of strange jade.
At the moment, it is with the help of this jade that the power of the Void God of Death is given to him to help him break through the boundaries.
"Unfortunately, it's not complete."
"If the power of the god of death and the power of the hollow are combined, it is the perfect power. Then, in order to complete you, do I need to start with the power of the hollow?"
Helping the Hollow to break the limits and obtain the Zanpakuto only made Aizen happy for a short while, and then he thought about himself again.
His hope of breaking through his own boundaries lies in that piece of jade.
He needs to complete the jade.
……
In Soul Society.
Xia Mu did not become leisurely and lazy just because internal and external troubles were temporarily eliminated.
It is true that there is no longer Aizen hiding in the dark in the Gotei 13.
The group of guys in Central Room 46 who were dragging their feet no longer exist.
The lepton space hidden in the shadows was also blown up.
But this does not mean that the whole world has become stable and there are no threats.
Aizen just ran away, which doesn't mean he is dead. With Aizen's personality, he will definitely do something in secret. However, compared to Aizen's threat, Natsuki is more concerned about the other powerful force he sensed after blowing up the spirit subspace.
The Soul King, and... Yhwach.
When that power was transmitted, Xia Mu was basically certain that Youhabach could not die so easily.
Now it has only prevented the Seireitei from being constantly observed by the Quincies, but it does not mean that the war will end.
In order to cope with future wars, we must do our best to improve our strength. Only in this way can we win the war. "Death has its limits."
This has been Xia Mu's personal experience in recent years.
Relying on Feiyuan's passive ability, he can improve the upper limit of his spiritual power all the time, from the very low spiritual power in the beginning to the first-class spiritual power. Every day he becomes stronger than the day before.
However, when the spiritual power reaches a certain level.
Even if you continue to absorb spirit particles, you cannot improve it even a little bit.
Xia Mu knew that he had reached his limit.
This is also the dilemma faced by Aizen in the original work.
In order to break the limit, Aizen started with Zankenzogide, but to no avail. Finally, he created the Hogyoku, but the Hogyoku he created was not perfect until he found the Hogyoku created by Urahara Kisuke.
Because of that broken jade, many subsequent things happened.
“How can I break the boundaries?”
"With the help of the Collapse Jade?"
Xia Mu thought so.
Urahara Kisuke's Hogyoku has been secretly swallowed by him, and its power is now hidden in his Zanpakuto. As long as he can complete it, he can create a perfect Hogyoku.
But this is just repeating the old path of Aizen in the original work.
The path of indigo may not be suitable for Natsuki.
Xia Mu thought of other things.
"The so-called perfect Collapse Jade is nothing more than a creation created by the power of the God of Death, the power of the Void, and the power of the Spirit King."
"These three forces are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, forming a trinity."
"If I can find a way to combine the three powers in one body, can I break through the boundary directly without the help of the Collapse Jade?"
As the captain of the Gotei 13 and the modern Kenpachi, when it comes to the power of the God of Death alone, Natsuki's own power of the God of Death is not weak. In addition, he has a spiritual sword made by Urahara Kisuke, which can extract his power of the God of Death and accumulate it secretly.
Therefore, there is no need to draw power from other gods of death. As long as you are willing to spend time and accumulate it slowly on your own, you can accumulate a very powerful power of a god of death.
The power of the Soul King benefited from the gift from Tsunayashiro Tokinada. Feiyuan absorbed a large piece of the Soul King's fragments. If that is still not enough, he can try to seize the rest of the Soul King's body.
Thinking of this, Xia Mu felt that he was still too reckless.
The lepton space shouldn't be blown up directly.
Because in the Stern Cross Knights, there are many beings related to the Soul King, not to mention Yhwach, the Soul King's left arm, and the Soul King's brain are among them.
But what has been done has been done, and regretting will not help.
He could only think about where the other Spirit King fragments were.
"The right arm of the Soul King in Ukitake? Or the fingertips of the Soul King in Rangiku Matsumoto?"
"No, perhaps there is another place where the power of the Spirit King is hidden."
"The spiritual vein beneath the heavy spiritual land!"
Xia Mu thought about it seriously, and finally decided to put the power of the Spirit King aside for the time being and decided to study the power of the Void first.
Although Urahara Kisuke's Hogyoku was created with the help of the power of Hollow.
However, because the Collapse Jade had just been born, it had not yet absorbed enough power to grow stronger. Although it contained extremely pure void power, it was not particularly strong. Xia Mu decided to cultivate this power.
Time flies like an arrow, the sun and the moon fly like a shuttle.
In the blink of an eye, several years had passed since Gin Ichimaru joined the 11th Division.
After joining the squad, he quickly showed his potential as a genius.
It has become the most dazzling presence in the 11th Division.
It was also during this period that Rangiku Matsumoto graduated from the Maou Academy of Spiritual Arts. After graduation, she decisively chose the 11th Division as a combat squad.
What else can Xia Mu do after seeing the other party’s application?
Just accept the other party.
After all, guys like Tosen Yaoi, Ichimaru Gin and others have come to the 11th Division, so Xia Mu wouldn't find it strange if there were more people coming.
He felt more and more like Aizen.
In the anime, because Aizen saved Momo Hinamori and others in the present soul burial incident, after graduation, Momo Hinamori, Renji Abarai, Izuru Kira and others chose to join the 5th Division.
Although later Abarai Renji and Kira Izuru went to other squads.
But this also illustrates one thing.
For geniuses, they have a lot of autonomy in choosing which team to join after graduation, and they often choose the team they like.
Beimachi, this is the name of the area where the 11th Division is stationed.
Perhaps because the 11th Division loves fighting and many of them are reckless by nature, the atmosphere in this area is much more barbaric than the rest of Seireitei. Its overall style is completely different from Seireitei, and it is more like the area at the back of Rukongai. The air is always filled with a violent atmosphere.
Of course, this is to outsiders.
However, the internal relationship within the 11th Division is actually extremely harmonious.
At this moment, a figure wearing the coarse cloth unique to the common people of Rukongai, with a pink-haired little girl sitting on his shoulders, came here.
"This should be the right side, right?"
A tall and burly figure, holding a tattered Zanpakutō in his hand. His body was covered with scars. His long black hair was as messy as the spikes on a hedgehog. His face was ferocious and his eyes were sharp.
Looking at the area ahead, I felt a little confused.
The little girl on his shoulder spoke softly, "Ah, this should be the place. The kind old man said that this is the base of the 11th Division. The most powerful Death God seems to be here."
The man didn't say anything, but just continued walking with the little girl.
At this moment, a young man wearing a black Shinigami suit, who looked not very old, had lavender hair, and walked with squinting eyes, came into the man's sight.
"Hey, kid!"
An impolite voice came out of the man's mouth.
The young man paused, still squinting his eyes, "Are you talking to me?"
"Yes, that's you."
"You are the god of death, right?"
The man said to the boy, "Take me to see Kenpachi."
The young man, Gin Ichimaru, was a little surprised after hearing the man's words. He judged the man's origins by the man's clothes.
There is no doubt that it came from Rukongai.
Although there is a high wall between Seireitei and Rukongai, as long as civilians can defeat the guards of the four gates, it is possible for them to enter Seireitei. This is a privilege for the strong.
Throughout the ages, there have been many masters from Rukongai who have come to Soul Society in an attempt to gain a high position.
Among the ways to get a high position, there is a simplest way, which is to defeat Kenpachi.
After joining the 11th Division, Gin Ichimaru, unlike many Shinigami who prefer to use violence rather than their brains, read through the history of the 11th Division and knew that the Kenpachi before Kenpachi Natsuki was from Rukongai.
"Another person who overestimates his own abilities?"
Ichimaru Gin thought to himself, and asked the man in front of him, "I wonder what you want to do with Kenpachi?"
The man grinned and said, "I heard that Kenpachi is the strongest in the Soul Society. Of course, I went to him to challenge him and have a good fight with him!"
He said this in a matter-of-fact tone.
……
boom! !
The golden spiritual pressure erupted next to the 11th Division's barracks. The terrifying power immediately attracted the attention of many Shinigami in the 11th Division.
"What happened again?"
In the captain's room, Xia Mu, who was thinking about something, raised his eyebrows.
"Even if it's a sparring match, it shouldn't make such a big noise."
Xia Mu couldn't help but sigh.
Immediately, he sensed the spiritual pressure erupting over there.
"One of the spiritual pressures belongs to Gin Ichimaru, and the other one belongs to..."
Hmm, a strange Reiatsu that Natsuki didn't recognize.
But the intensity of this spiritual pressure is indeed very high, otherwise it would not have caused such a big commotion.
After thinking about it, he finally walked out of the captain's room.
Near the 11th Squadron's barracks.
Gin Ichimaru was fighting with a burly man.
The little girl who was originally sitting on the man's shoulders ran to the other side of the wall and watched the battle.
Gin Ichimaru is a well-deserved genius, and he can use all the abilities of the God of Death with ease.
After the Zanpakuto in his hand is released, it can be extended or shortened, and it is so fast that it is hard to defend against.
After fighting with the man, at the beginning, it was indeed easy to injure the man.
However, the opponent's will to fight, or the instinct in battle, really surprised Ichimaru Gin. But in just a short moment, the opponent adapted to the speed of the magic gun and then responded.
It was obvious that the opponent didn't know any advanced fighting skills, he just used the tattered knife in his hand to slash.
But it burst out with extremely terrifying sword pressure.
After all, Gin Ichimaru is still young and has not yet grown to his peak. After fighting for a while, he suddenly found that he was at a disadvantage.
boom!
Facing the opponent rushing towards him, swinging a knife.
Gin Ichimaru could only swing his Zanpakutō to block.
His short body was immediately blown away.
At this moment, a figure appeared behind him and supported him.
"Silver, it's almost done."
"You may not be a match for this beast right now."
The gentle voice entered Ichimaru Gin's ears, and Ichimaru Gin's fighting spirit also disappeared.
Xia Mu released his hand from Ichimaru Gin's back, looked forward, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
After searching for Zaraki in Rukongai in vain, he unexpectedly found Zaraki himself one day.
I wish you all a healthy Dragon Boat Festival!
