Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 210 Gathering at the Void Night Palace, Six Treasures of Immortal Thieves
Good morning, fellow Espada.

As Aizen uttered these words and entered the main hall of Las Noches, the ten strongest Arrancar and Espada were already seated at the long table.

Some of them had their arms crossed, some were propped up on one elbow on the table, and some were resting their chins on their hands as if they were bored. However, when Aizen walked in, everyone looked at him with solemn eyes.

Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tōsen remained in Soul Society. At this moment, behind Aizen were only the Great King and Nyanko-sensei, who were unfamiliar to most of the Espada.

“Things have changed.” Aizen had no intention of introducing the King and Nyanko-sensei. He simply walked into the main hall and instructed Lori and Minori outside the door, “Have a cup of black tea first.”

In Hueco Mundo, the landscape is a barren desert with a water content of 0%. The ability to drink black tea is entirely due to the power of the 3rd Espada, Halibel.

Of course, Aizen didn't always bother Halibel to make water. Occasionally, he would use the power of Kyoka Suigetsu to 'create' black tea. If their five senses told them that the Espada's black tea was real, then they would really drink a cup of black tea. Whether they felt thirsty afterwards was a matter for later.

The black tea today was genuine. After all the Espada had received their tea, Aizen, who was sitting upright, continued, "For certain reasons, the time for starting the war with Soul Society will have to be brought forward..."

"Huh?! War?!"

A slight commotion arose among the Espada. Grimmjow's eyes flashed with a divine light as he interrupted, "With those Shinigami?!"

"Please let me finish speaking, okay, Grimmjow Jaegerjacjac?"

Aizen's voice was flat, beginning with "please," but without any hint of request. Grimmjow felt an indescribable sense of oppression envelop him, cold sweat beading on his forehead, and he reluctantly and laboriously replied.

"……Yes."

“It won’t be a full-scale war,” Aizen continued. “The time is not yet ripe.”

"Harassment, probing. Intelligence is crucial before a war begins. Death knows nothing about you. But don't worry, everyone, show your strength and strike back every Death who appears in your territory."

"Besides that, pay attention to this man."

No recording or equipment is needed; Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu is the most advanced black technology.

When he wanted the Espada to see Guan Yi, the Espada's five senses would naturally be manipulated and transformed, and Guan Yi's face and figure would appear before his eyes.

"This is... Death?"

"What's going on, a brat?" Barragan grumbled. "Why the special mention?"

"Don't be careless," Aizen said. "Barragan, didn't you want to know where your subordinate, Geo Weig, went?"

Barragán paused, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

"This human possesses the ability to freely travel between Hueco Mundo and the real world, and also controls an unknown ability to manipulate the actions of Hollows."

Aizen said, "The upper limit of its power is unknown. Perhaps... even you can control it."

The ability to manipulate virtual actions?!
The 8th Espada, Szayelaporro, showed interest, Stark frowned slightly, and the other Espada finally took Aizen's intentional influence seriously, memorizing his face.

Halibel asked, "Lord Aizen, what should we do if we encounter him?"

"Priority: Arrest."

"If you can't do it, then kill him."

After answering calmly, Aizen turned to look at the king: "Is everything alright, Your Majesty?"

The king grunted, "It's alright. If they can do it, it just means that kid is incompetent and doesn't realize it; he has no ability but dares to act recklessly."

“Vegetables?” Aizen murmured, repeating, and smiled. “You always come up with a new word or two, even though I can generally understand the meaning.”

"Tell me." At this moment, Barragan spoke in a low voice, "Whoever encounters him must inform me immediately, understand?!"

His fierce gaze swept over the Espada, but none of them felt fear. Nnoitra shouted, "Byragon, are you issuing orders on behalf of Lord Aizen?"

Barragan clenched his fist under the table, but after glancing at Aizen who was smiling at him, he slowly relaxed it and said, "I wouldn't dare. Lord Aizen, Geo Weig was being manipulated by someone else, and I was unaware of it. This is a dereliction of duty. Please allow me to personally make amends for my mistake." "Aizen, he seems to want to kill you." Before Aizen could respond, the King behind him whispered in a low voice just loud enough for the Espada to hear.

Barragán's eyelids twitched.

Aizen waved his hand behind him and said, "I give my permission, Barragan. Do it this way."

“…Yes, Lord Aizen.” Barragan looked at the other nine people and received their tacit reply.

Only Grimmjow, who had been suppressed by Aizen once and dared not utter a sound, seemed to be deep in thought.

The guy who controls Geo Weig? So, this is the guy who gave me the wrong directions, making me wander aimlessly around Hueco Mundo for days like a headless fly?!

Just you wait, you bastard...

……

[The Sixth Seminar on Extraordinary Skills Concluded]

[Acquire Skill: Six Treasures Immortal Thief]

[Activating the seventh Skill Research requires 50 Life Points and 50 billion Yen. Subsequent Skill Research sessions will have the same cost.]

[Life Points: 10359]

[Wealth: 4358.73 billion yen]

A month has passed since Aizen was 'arrested'. Guan Yi has gradually gained over 15 life points. Using these life points and the wealth he had accumulated, he started the fifth and sixth seminars on extraordinary skills, and obtained the Divine Refinement and the Six Treasuries Immortal Thief respectively.

The special note in the plan, "From now on, each skill research will be based on the current cost," made Guan Yi breathe a slight sigh of relief. This meant that he wouldn't need 100 million life points for his eighth skill research, and if he wanted to obtain the ninth or even more skills, he wouldn't need to collect such terrifying amounts as 500 million or 1000 million life points.

50 may seem like a lot, but it still offers some hope.

But we have to take it slowly.

Sitting in his self-built cabin in the mountains with his five hearts facing the sky, Guan Yi began to try to convert the Six Treasures Immortal Thief he had just acquired into the Death God version.

Having honed his skills through various exercises, Guan Yi was now able to easily equate Qi with spiritual particles. The core of the Six Treasures Immortal Thief's abilities—perfect digestion and absorption—required first and foremost the absolute decomposition and reconstruction of matter.

This is somewhat similar to the Reverse Rebirth Triple Decomposition, where the Reverse Rebirth Triple Decomposition decomposes itself, while the Six Treasuries Immortal Thief decomposes other things and then transforms them back into itself.

Having experienced the Reverse Rebirth Triple, Guan Yi quickly mastered the Death God version of the Six Treasures Immortal Thief.

It was so powerful that Guan Yi even felt he had begun to possess 'immortality'!
This is different from the Reverse Regeneration Triple Technique, which is similar to the Hollow Hyper-Regeneration Technique. Although the Reverse Regeneration Triple Technique can perfectly restore injuries, even limb regeneration can be done in an instant, it will eventually consume one's spiritual pressure and has a limit.

After mastering the Six Treasures Immortal Thief, Guan Yi can absorb spiritual particles from the air to replenish himself. As long as he has not absorbed all the spiritual particles in the air, Guan Yi will never run out of energy!
In other words, if it were a place like Hueco Mundo or Soul Society, and if the enemy didn't possess some kind of power of rules, or the ability to kill Guan Yi with a single blow, Guan Yi would have a very difficult time losing!
In addition to absorbing spiritual particles and other substances to obtain nutrients, the Six Treasures Immortal Thief can also devour spiritual energy, just like the Spirit Binding and Commanding Generals.

Their functions overlap, but the Six Treasures Immortal Thief has a higher upper limit for devouring ability and also possesses a special ability—for example, if Guan Yi can devour some of Urahara Kisuke's spiritual power, he can deeply analyze Urahara Kisuke's spiritual pressure and achieve a perfect simulation of spiritual pressure!

Even with instrument monitoring, it would probably be impossible to see the difference. Previously, he could only imitate it. Kuchiki Byakuya couldn't see through it, but Yoruichi Shihouin, who was more familiar with him, definitely could.

"It's really making me a 'mastermind'. Now I can directly replace any Shinigami or Hollow whose spiritual pressure is weaker than mine."

However... real-world experience is also an important way to improve oneself.

Having cultivated in silence for over two years, and having spent over a hundred years cultivating alone in this world, his abilities are complex and chaotic. Perhaps it's time to find an opponent to test his true skills.

Who should we test the waters with?
