Death: No cheats, take refuge in Aizen

Chapter 119 117. Meeting with Aizen (4k)

Soul Society, South Rukongai District 63.

This place has no special meaning, it was purely picked by Aizen at random.

At least Higashino Shuichi thinks so.

"Thank you, Lord Death!"

Seeing Aizen, who was wearing the captain's haori of the fifth division, kindly distributing some of the food he carried to the nearby children, Higashino Shuichi said quietly: "Sir Aizen, I didn't expect that you would still be like this after becoming the captain. So gentle~"

“The unity of words and deeds is the most basic quality, isn’t it?”

After distributing the food in his hand, Aizen bent down again and said sorry to the children before standing up and looking at Higashino Shuichi, "On the contrary, Shuichi, you will not let Urahara Kisuke and the others return to Soul Society now." Are you suspicious?"

"Probably not. The reason why I came back is, firstly, to inquire about the current situation in Soul Society for Urahara Kisuke and the others, secondly, to find out about you, Aizen-sama, for them, and thirdly, to confirm one thing, Soul Soul Have there been any major thefts in the world recently?”

Higashino Shuichi nonchalantly told almost everything about the purpose of his trip.

"Major theft?"

Sure enough, Aizen had no reaction at all to Higashino Shuichi's first two goals, but only became somewhat interested in the last one.

"Yes, Aizen-sama," Higashino nodded, "We have discovered Soul Society's soul technology in this world, but this technology should have been introduced by the Central Committee when Kisuke Urahara was the captain of the 12th Division. Room 46 should stop it and seal it in the 12th Division."

"Haha." Hearing this, Aizen smiled softly, "It seems that Kisuke Urahara may be accused of another crime for no apparent reason~"

"Aizen-sama, you don't know either?"

"Should I know?" Aizen asked.

"I thought this was another crime carefully designed by Aizen-sama for Urahara Kisuke."

Higashino Shuichi replied.

"I hope so, but I'm afraid this is another attempt by those nobles."

Not far away, a huge black cavity suddenly appeared in the sky. Aizen and Higashino Shuichi looked up at the same time.

"It seems that Soul Society is much less peaceful recently than before."

Higashino Shuichi said as he looked at the Daxu emerging from the black cavity and the two Shinigami rushing over from the air.

"After all, there are so many captains and vice-captains missing all of a sudden. It is normal for the Hollows in Hueco Mundo to have some thoughts about Soul Society."

Aizen's spiritual pressure was faintly released, and none of the passing Shinigami noticed the existence of Aizen and Higashino Shuichi.

"By the way, Lord Aizen, did you just say that this was another attempt by those nobles?"

Looking away, now that he is no longer the god of death in the Soul Society, Higashino Shuichi no longer needs to pay attention to this kind of virtual invasion as he did in the past.

"You won't be so naive as to think that what happened to the Kasumitaji family, with Kasumitaji Zhenyou being executed, the tapiraya sword technology being sealed, and the entire Kasumitaji family members, all dead and gone, there are only a few people left. Becoming a civilian, such an outcome brings a complete end to the story, right?"

Aizen said while pushing his glasses on the bridge of his nose with one hand.

Seeing Higashino Shuichi frowning and not replying, Aizen smiled slightly, then turned to look at the Seireitei in the distance.

"The Kasumioji family just opened a box called Pandora for those nobles. Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni, it took too long to control the Gotei 13th Division."

Aizen only said this, and there was no need to continue talking about the rest. Higashino Shuichi also understood.

After all, it is still the old saying,

The world has been suffering for a long time.

It would have been okay without Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, but once it got started, especially after seeing Yamamoto's compromise on that day.

If it hadn't been for Higashino Hideichi's intervention, the Tapir Yao Zhong might have become a trend now.

The hearts of those people could no longer calm down.

"So, Aizen-sama, what are you going to do?"

As soon as Higashino saw the confident smile on Aizen's face, he knew that although Aizen might have only found out about this today, with his wisdom, he could see the future as he spoke.

"Shuichi, what do you think the nobles' private armed forces should be called?"

Higashino Shuichi didn't understand why Aizen would ask him such a confusing question, but he still gave his answer after thinking about it for a while,

"The Sword Hunters?"

"A good name for Dao Hunter."

Aizen said slowly, but there was no follow-up. Higashino Shuichi didn't know what Aizen was thinking, but he would not be stupid enough to ask Aizen what his plans were.

After all, he had already asked once, and Aizen avoided answering. If Higashino Shuichi had the courage to ask a second time, Aizen might have to re-evaluate Higashino Shuichi's emotional intelligence.

So the two of them stood in tandem for a few seconds before Higashino Shuichi asked again: "Lord Aizen, there is one more thing I would like to ask for your help."

"What's up?"

"About a type of people in this world who claim to be perfect masters."

For Higashino Shuichi, apart from Urahara Kisuke, the best choice of scientific researcher is naturally Aizen, followed by Nirvana, and finally it is the turn of Hueco Mundo's already somewhat demonic Saar Apollo.

"Complete Masters?" Hearing the name, Aizen showed an expected smile on his face, "Are you interested in them?"

"Yes, Aizen-sama, judging from my experience fighting them, the reason why they don't have much spiritual pressure themselves, but are able to use abilities far beyond what their own spiritual pressure can give them, should be the same as what I got from Matsumoto Rangiku before. The fingernail fragments of the Spirit King are similar, and they are borrowing the power from the fragments of the Spirit King’s body. This is the most reasonable explanation I can think of.”

Higashino Shuichi said what he had prepared long ago.

"so what?"

"I think, since they can borrow the fragments of the Soul King's body and use such incredible abilities, there is no reason why I can't. The ability to infinitely regenerate is just the ability of the Soul King's fingernail fragments themselves, and it is different from the perfection of those perfectionists. There is still a big difference in technique.”

That's right, Higashino Shuichi has played his cards right, he's just been craving for the Shinjutsu for a long time.

"You are already very strong now, right?

After mastering Hollowing, the problem of the upper limit of natural spiritual pressure that troubled you before no longer exists. Is the Perfection Technique very important to you now? "

Aizen, who had done countless virtualization experiments, naturally knew Higashino Shuichi's current state very well.

"More skills don't overwhelm you." Higashino Shuichi replied without thinking.

But Aizen seemed to have predicted Higashino Shuichi's answer, and interrupted Higashino Shuichi's answer in a stronger tone,

"But if you take more than you can chew, you will bite off more than you can chew. What's more, it's not your own strength."

Aizen's words revealed his disdain for that power and that man.

But how could someone like Aizen understand Higashino Shuichi's difficulties?

If Higashino Shuichi had Aizen's talent, he wouldn't be so painstakingly seeking power for himself.

"I just want to be one step closer to you, Aizen-sama, when the day comes when you stand tall in the heavens."

Higashino Shuichi's eyes seemed to be longing, but more of a desire.

After listening, Aizen looked at Higashino Hideichi meaningfully.

One step closer?

There are many ways to get closer. Xiuyi, do you want to get closer from bottom to top?

Or should we take a closer look from the front or the back?

Aizen wasn't sure.

The desire for power that Higashino Shuichi has shown so far is somewhat beyond his understanding.

Both crazy and restrained.

Higashino Shuichi is like a machine that strictly knows what it should do at what time in order to improve itself, constantly improving its abilities in a regular and orderly manner.

And there’s no end in sight.

However, Aizen liked it.

He also wanted to see how far Higashino Shuichi could grow as a mortal.

"A person who possesses the Perfection Technique is a person who has fragments of the Soul King's body. Before the child was born, he was attacked by a Hollow and had a chance of being born."

"Um."

Higashino Shuichi also knows this.

"But Xiuyi, you have never thought about why it must be attacked by a hollow, and why it is the person born later and not the person who was attacked? You must know that the fragments of the Soul King's body are inherited to the children."

Higashino Shuichi lowered his head in silence. He really hadn't thought about this issue because it was set up like this in the original plot, and he had always regarded it as a prerequisite.

“The birth of the soul is a wonderful process. Whether it is creation out of thin air or the gestation of life, there is indescribable power in it.

Shuichi, haven't you ever thought that the Perfection Technique is the product of the fusion of Hollow's power, the Soul King's body fragments, and the human soul? "

Aizen's words awakened the dreamer.

Yes, after Aizen said this, Higashino Shuichi felt as if he had suddenly become enlightened. Aren't the various powers in the Shinigami world essentially the arrangement and combination of those basic elements?

In other words, if we directly refer to the template of the future protagonist Kurosaki Ichigo, it is a standard hybrid, with basically all the elements in the Bleach world mixed into it.

The human soul, the god of death, the Hollow, basically everything that can be blended and cannot be blended, are all stuffed in.

But if this is the case, Higashino Shuichi realized a serious problem, that is, as a god of death, it seems that Higashino Shuichi no longer has the possibility of possessing a human soul.

Power can be obtained through various means, but the essence of the soul, how does Higashino Shuichi handle this?

Even if it is a prosthetic body, it only allows him to temporarily possess a human body.

"So, Aizen-sama, do you think that it is no longer possible for me to master the manifestation technique?"

Higashino Shuichi looked at Aizen's back in front and asked.

"Although I have never really come into contact with a Perfection Technique practitioner, based on my speculation, this is correct. Instead of spending that energy on Perfection Technique, it is better to spend time mastering the power of the void in your body.

Gui Ren's power is not inferior to that of Swastika. "

Aizen never doubted that Higashino Shuichi had the ability to master the Return Blade.

After all, mastering the prerequisites for returning to the blade, with the help of Bengyu, Higashino Shuichi actually only had one condition left to complete to completely conquer the Hollow in his body.

This may be difficult for other Shinigami. After all, there is a difference between defeating and conquering.

But for Higashino Shuichi, Aizen had no worries.

But Aizen underestimated Higashino Shuichi's determination.

If there are no conditions, create conditions.

This is the motto that Higashino Shuichi has always believed in.

It doesn't matter if Aizen is not optimistic. Higashino Shuichi knows that in the future plot, Soul Society has taken the initiative to research a technology called soul transformation in order to better deal with Hollows.

The core of this technology is to use the spiritual skeleton technology that was banned in the past as a carrier to fuse the power of the void with the human soul.

What is the spiritual skeleton? It's just a container that carries the soul of the God of Death.

Higashino Shuichi didn't believe that he, a real god of death, could be worse than a spiritual corpse?

Whatever the spirit skeleton can accomplish, he can definitely do it.

"I understand, Lord Aizen, can you please take me into the Seireitei?"

Higashino Shuichi asked Aizen again, because with his current status, it is very difficult to enter the Seireitei without alerting the alarm.

But to Higashino Shuichi's surprise, he was rejected by Aizen without being rejected.

"Shuichi, Ichimaru Gin is now the captain of the third division, and due to an accident, he has touched my unliberated Zanpakuto blade. You don't want Ichimaru Gin to know about your affairs, right?"

"."

Higashino Shuichi was speechless for a moment. Of course he knew what it meant for Aizen's Zanpakutō to be touched before it was liberated.

That meant that Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu was permanently ineffective against that person.

However, in the original plot, Mingming Ichimaru Gin should not have known this weakness so early and touched Kyoka Suigetsu.

Is Aizen so big now?

Is he really not afraid that Ichimaru Gin will eat his waist in advance?

Oh, that's right, in order to deal with him that day, Ichimaru Gin used the killing move prepared for Aizen in the original plot in advance.

But Aizen didn't know, how could he be sure that Gin Ichimaru didn't have any more ruthless moves?

It may be difficult for Higashino Shuichi to create another trump card move, but is it difficult for a genius like Gin Ichimaru?

Forget it, Higashino Shuichi doesn't want to worry about Aizen anymore.

Whether Aizen takes off or not has nothing to do with him, it's just that the current situation is more embarrassing for him.

Originally, Higashino Shuichi thought that with Aizen's help, he should enter and leave the Seireitei at will.

Now it seems that it is still somewhat difficult for him to see Nirvana.

But this side of Higashino Hideichi must be seen again.

After all, there is such a thing as transforming the soul. If you don't take advantage of the leakage of the spirit skeleton technology now, and quickly gather a wave of wool, you don't know when the next time Central Room 46 is willing to lift the control of the spirit skeleton technology.

Maybe we have to wait until the day when Aizen kills everyone in the forty-sixth central room.

But one thing is to say, that day has arrived, and Higashino Shuichi is probably not far away from the original plot.

And at the terrifying pace of the original plot, Yhwach could be destroyed in less than three months.

Where can I find time for Higashino Shuichi to fuse a human soul and master the Perfection Technique?

Without continuing to seek Aizen's help, Higashino Shuichi briefly explained to Aizen Urahara Kisuke's progress in the present world, and how Urahara Kisuke defended himself after complaining to Aizen.

As the Hollow that invaded Rukongai was eliminated, Aizen left.
