The Hell's Gate incident was Aizen's final counterattack.

After this incident came to an end, Urahara Kisuke returned to Soul Society first to report the cause of the incident, while Natsuki and Yoruichi went on a good trip together in the real world.

Since retiring, Ye Yi has been enjoying this peaceful life more and more.

As for Xia Mu, in addition to reminiscing about his modern life in his previous life, the reason he stayed in the present world was to meet those Fullbringers.

Previously, he proposed to Shiba Kaien a method to help Ichigo regain his strength.

Shiba Kaien contacted the first generation Death God agent Ginjo Kūgo through the special channels of the 13th Division.

At that time, Xia Mu did not come to the human world to meet Ginjo Kūgo and others.

Unexpectedly, not long after Ichigo recovered his power as a Shinigami, something happened in the real world. Natsuki had to come to the real world in order to deal with Aizen's back-up plan. Now that they have come to the real world, and those Fullbringers are in the neighboring Naruki City and have not left, it wouldn't hurt to go and see them.

Natsuki has no interest in Ginjo Kūgo's abilities. His ability to take away other people's abilities is similar to that of Hollows. Although it is also very impressive, Natsuki himself has mastered this kind of ability.

What really interested him was Tsukishima Hidekuro's ability.

The abilities of Tsukishima, Orihime Inoue, and Yhwach correspond to the past, present, and future. In the original work, they shine brightly, especially Tsukishima's ability. The seemingly inconspicuous Fullbring was an extremely important factor in Ichigo's final comeback.

Natsuki really wanted to know the limit of how much Tsukishima could tamper with the past.

Is it possible to tamper with even the origin of a person, for example, to give an ordinary person an extremely powerful origin?

In Mingmu City, in an old apartment.

After teaching Ichigo the Fullbring Technique and helping Orihime Inoue, Yasutora Chadari and others to further master their abilities.

The Fullbringers, led by Ginjo Kūgo, actually had some disagreements on whether to leave or stay here.

Finally, after discussion, we felt that Karakura Town was a very special city.

Even the neighboring city of Mingmu is quite good.

They stayed here and tried to understand what had happened in the area over the years before leaving.

Moreover, the Soul Society actually contacted them specifically for Kurosaki Ichigo, which was not an ordinary thing.

How powerful was Aizen back then? What's so special about Kurosaki Ichigo?
In the apartment, the Fullbringers were doing their own things.

Suddenly, they all became alert at the same time.

"Let me go!"

Looking at the people with different expressions, the leader Ginjo Kūgo sighed.

Immediately, he stood up and walked to the door.

When he opened the door, two figures came into his sight.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Natsuki, the captain of the 11th Division of the Gotei 13!"

Xia Mu told the person in front of him his origins.

Hearing Xia Mu's words, Ginjo Kūgo was stunned, and then he also revealed his background.

"My name is Ginjo Kūgo, and I'm a Fullbringer. Other than that, I'm the first Shinigami proxy in Soul Society!"

Originally, the word "first generation" did not appear in Ginjo Kūgo's self-introduction, but since he already knew that Ichigo had become the new deputy god of death, and as a senior, he was naturally the first generation.

……

Soul Society, after returning.

Xia Mu felt a little emotional in his heart.

After meeting with Fullbringers such as Ginjo Kūgo, he was able to witness the wonders of Fullbring.

At this point, another unique power system in this world opened its arms to him.

However, he had no intention of learning Fullbring.

After all, his own Bankai is already very similar to Fullbring, and in terms of effectiveness, it is much better than any Fullbring. He met with Ginjo Kūgo and others just to see Tsukishima's unique abilities. After seeing them, Natsuki had a better understanding of Tsukishima's abilities.

It is indeed very strong, but it is not the kind of unlimited strength.

The past that Tsukishima can modify can only tamper with part of other people's lives, and he cannot reshape their lives from the beginning.

Of course, because some experiences in life have been changed, subsequent life will naturally change as well.

But this ability still has great limitations.

After a little understanding.

Xia Mu put the matter of the Fullbringer behind him.

Now, Aizen's last backup plan has been resolved, and there is no need to worry about hell becoming turbulent.

Next, we need to focus all our attention on Youhabach in order to deal with him.

With his help, Ishida Uryu has already developed a completely opposite ability. Next, he just needs to continuously improve the upper limit of this ability.

Inoue Orihime, Chataro Yasutora and others were also taught by Ginjo Kūgo and further mastered their own powers.

Therefore, the next goal is to improve Ichigo's strength.

Although Ichigo has now regained the power of the God of Death, in Natsuki's opinion, Ichigo is not yet in his peak state.

If Ichigo was allowed to reach his peak earlier and then had another year or two to settle down, he would definitely be more powerful than in the original work.

"Can you, the Shiba family, contact the Zero Squad?"

It is still the extremely familiar Shiba Kaiyan.

Because of Ichigo's relationship with the Shiba family, many things cannot be avoided by the Shiba family.

Although Shiba Kaiyan is only a vice-captain, he is the head of the Shiba family.

"!!!"

When she heard about that special team, Shiba Kaiyan's eyes froze.

He hesitated for a while before asking Xia Mu, "What does Captain Xia Mu want to do with them?"

As one of the great nobles, the Shiba family has a very long heritage. Although unlike the other great nobles, they moved their family residence to Rukongai early on and chose to mingle with the common people, but correspondingly, they have a close relationship with the Zero Squad and the Soul King Palace.

The family's fireworks technology is actually a simplified version of the method to go to the Soul King Palace. Xia Mu did not directly state his purpose, but talked to Shiba Kaiyan and gave some popular science, "Zanpakuto is born from the soul of the god of death. The god of death writes his own soul into it through sleeping and eating with Asaochi, thus giving birth to his own unique sword."

"It can be said that the sword of every Grim Reaper was bred by Asauchi."

"Then the question is, is there a Shinigami in this world who can give birth to a Zanpakutō without an Asauchi?"

Zhiba Kaiyan was stunned, not understanding why Xia Mu asked such a question.

After a moment's silence, he replied, "Probably not."

Anyway, as far as he knew, the first thing all new students of the Maou Academy of Spiritual Arts did when they entered school was to receive the Asado.

In addition, although there are some guys who became Shinigami without receiving instruction from the Maou Spiritual Academy, they all became Shinigami after they obtained the Shōdachi of a dead Shinigami by chance and activated that Shōdachi.

It can be seen that shallow hitting is very important to the god of death.

This can be seen from the fact that after a Shinigami leaves his squad, his Zanpakutō will be confiscated and sealed within the squad.

"You've said it all, but there's a person in this world who has his own Zanpakutō without getting an Asauchi." Natsuki mentioned a special case.

"Who?"

Zhiba Kaiyan's curiosity was aroused and she quickly asked Xia Mu.

"You know this person, it's Ichigo!"

Xia Mu gave the answer.

"Ichigo?!" Upon hearing this, Shiba Kaiyan was stunned at first, and then showed an incredible expression, "How could this be?"

"He obviously..."

"I know what you want to say is that Ichigo has mastered Shikai and Bankai, so if it's not Zanpakutō, what else could it be?" Xia Mu guessed what Shiba Kaien was thinking, "But sometimes, what you see with your eyes may not be the truth."

"Although Ichigo possesses the incomparably powerful power of a Shinigami, the sword that helps him unleash the power hidden in his soul is not necessarily Asauchi, but could be other powers."

"What power?" Zhiba Kaiyan asked hurriedly.

When it comes to Ichigo and the people of the Shiba family, Shiba Kaiyan always gets emotional.

This has to do with the fact that he is a person who cares a lot about his family.

And some guesses also arose in his mind.

Captain Natsuki suddenly mentioned Squad Zero. Could it be related to Ichigo?
"The power of the Quincy!"

Xia Mu's tone suddenly changed.

"I don't know if Kurosaki Isshin has ever told you about Ichigo's true life story. Her mother is not an ordinary human, but... a Quincy. Moreover, she is not just an ordinary Quincy, but a pure-blooded Quincy, which is extremely rare among Quincies."

"Back then, Aizen created a special Hollow that roamed in the real world. At that time, the captain of the Tenth Division, your uncle, went to the real world to investigate. He was attacked by the Hollow. At the critical moment, it was Ichigo's mother who saved him, but the price was that she herself was eroded by the power of the Hollow."

"For the Shinigami, becoming a Hollow is an extremely dangerous thing, and for the Quincy, the danger of becoming a Hollow is even greater than that of the Shinigami. The power of the Hollow is like poison to them. You must know that the power of the Quincy comes from their bloodline, and the power of the Hollow can pollute the bloodline."

"It was to save Ichigo's mother that your uncle Isshin chose to stay in the human world. He used his power as a god of death to maintain Ichigo's mother's life. The two fell in love during their long time together, and that's how Ichigo was born."

"So that's how it is!" Zhiba Haiyan nodded, finally understanding the reason for everything.

He actually knew something about why his uncle stayed in the world, but he was not very clear about the specific details. Now he knew the specific details.

"Is this the source of the power within Ichigo's body?" Shiba Kaiyan couldn't help but think about it. Ichigo had previously revealed the power of a Hollow. It was thought that only the power of Death and Hollows was hidden within Ichigo's body, but now it seemed that there was another power, and that was the power of a Quincy.

Xia Mu continued, "You should know that the Quincy is the great enemy of us Shinigami. A thousand years ago, they started a war in Soul Society."

"Of course, I'm not saying this to ask you to sever your relationship with Ichigo or be on guard against him. Instead, I want to tell you that Ichigo has the power of a Quincy hidden in his body, and the founder of the Quincies, Yhwach, has been confirmed to be alive. He can influence all Quincies."

"If Ichigo fails to realize his own true nature and continues to use the sword condensed from the power of the Quincy, he may be lured by the returning Yhwach and turn to the Quincy's side."

"Captain Natsuki, now that you know all this, what do you want to do?" After learning from Natsuki about the hidden danger in Ichigo, Shiba Kaiyan asked Natsuki with a serious expression.

"I have already told you the specific method." Xia Mu said, "Contact Squad Zero. It would be great if we can contact Nimaiya Wang Yue. I want him to help Ichigo forge a real Zanpakutō."

"!!!"

Zhiba Kaiyan frowned again.

He was silent for a while, then asked Xia Mu, "Captain Xia Mu really cares about Ichigo's affairs."

Xia Mu also said bluntly, "Who asked Ichigo to call me teacher? In addition, Ichigo has an extremely powerful power hidden in his body. If he can truly master that power, he may become an important force in the future against Youhabach."

Zhibo Haiyan no longer dwelled on the previous topic. He just said, "I'll find a way to contact them."

“I just don’t know if they are willing to help us.”

"After all, Squad Zero never interferes with Soul Society affairs."

……

Shiba Kaiyan is very efficient.

In other words, his contact with Squad Zero just gave Squad Zero an excuse to come down from the Soul King Palace and into Soul Society.

This day.

There was some turbulence in the sky.

Squad 12 detected the incident immediately and reported it to the captain-in-chief.

The captain originally wanted to investigate a little, but thinking of what Xia Mu had said to him before, his final response to the 12th Division was, "No need to pay any attention."

Outside of Seireitei, in a wilderness.

A huge pillar stood on the ground, and then one side of the pillar was opened like the lid of a coffin.

Two figures walked out from it.

"After staying there for a long time, it feels like a long-lost feeling to come back here again!"

Among the two men, one had black punk curly hair that was partially longer than his neck, and the rest of his hair was short and light green. He wore wide-framed sunglasses, a grass-green shirt and slippers. He looked a bit unruly. He glanced at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but speak.

Next to him, another man with a unique crew cut was also looking around, but he didn't say anything. Instead, his expression was a little solemn.

It was just because, before coming here, Hyoshubu Ichibei found him, and the man mentioned by Hyoshubu Ichibei was someone he had happened to have met in the past and had a conversation with.

This time, the Spirit King conveyed his will, involving that man, which made him curious. (End of this chapter)
