Bleach: The Path to Transcendence

“Let’s do it!”

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, his expression unchanged due to his severe injuries and loss of mobility, stared at Ye Chuan with a calm demeanor.

As the strongest Shinigami of the past millennium and Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, his pride was ingrained in his bones. Even in defeat, his arrogance remained undiminished.

“Very well, I shall grant your wish!”

Ye Chuan, seeing Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s readiness for death, grinned strangely.

In an instant, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and a bizarre, bone-white dagger materialized abruptly.

Immediately afterward, he exerted force, stabbing the dagger fiercely into Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s chest, the movement swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

“Puchi!”

The muffled sound of the blade entering flesh was particularly piercing in the silence. However, in the next second, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was shocked to find that he had not died after the dagger pierced his chest.

Before he could react, a layer of milky white bone matter rapidly covered his face without warning!

Then, his left arm, which had been severed by Ye Chuan, began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye!

“What have you done to me!”

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s eyes widened, his voice booming, anger and shock intertwined, stirring up rolling sound waves in the air.

“What have I done? Of course, I’m helping you heal!”

Ye Chuan’s mouth held a meaningful smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bone matter that had been wriggling on Yamamoto Genryusai’s face solidified, turning into a mask covered in flame patterns.

In an instant, a strange and powerful aura surged, and Yamamoto Genryusai completed his Hollowification in an instant!

His severed arm, as well as the dense, shallow wounds all over his body, healed slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye under the super-speed regeneration ability granted by Hollowification. The bones at the break re-grew and pieced together, muscle tissue covered layer by layer, and the skin also stretched and repaired.

“What’s happening to me!”

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni roared sharply, sensing a strange and bizarre alien spiritual pressure suddenly mixed into his pure Shinigami spiritual pressure.

A rare trace of panic appeared on the face of the strongest Shinigami of the millennium!

“Obviously, I am giving you the ability to Hollowify!”

Ye Chuan’s eyes smiled, his tone with a bit of smugness.

The bone-white dagger just now was actually a byproduct of Szayelaporro Granz’s research on the Garganta.

Its only function is to help Shinigami Hollowify.

Ye Chuan’s control of the dosage was superb. He didn’t give Yamamoto Genryusai too much Hollow essence, just enough to support him in completing Hollowification, but it was impossible for him to release even more powerful strength like Kaname Tōsen by further Resurrección.

The reason is that Yamamoto Genryusai’s own strength has reached its peak. If he is given too much enhancement, it is likely to exceed Ye Chuan’s control.

The current level of Hollowification can not only enhance his survivability but also increase his spiritual pressure to a certain extent.

In this way, he avoided the loss of his arm in the Fake Karakura Town battle in the original plot.

It also reduced the probability of him being schemed to death by Yhwach in the Blood War to a certain extent.

Although Ye Chuan didn’t expect him to destroy the Soul King’s son, it would be nice to disgust Yhwach!

“I hope Aizen and Yhwach like the little surprise I prepared for them.”

Ye Chuan murmured in a low voice, his eyes filled with different colors, as if he had foreseen the wonderful and variable battles in the future.

“Insolent!”

“Kacha!”

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni roared, the surrounding air buzzing. His eyes widened, and the veins on his arms bulged. He directly tore off the mask tightly covering his face with his hands.

Then, his aura suddenly climbed, and the whole person turned into a streak of light, rushing towards Ye Chuan madly with his sword.

“Bank…”

However, just as he was about to use Bankai again, preparing to fight Ye Chuan to the death, an accident happened!

A strange white bone layer surged out of his body without warning. These bone layers were like sharp blades, instantly sealing all of his limbs.

“Damn it!”

Yamamoto Genryusai’s face was full of unwillingness, struggling desperately, but found that his body was imprisoned in invisible shackles, unable to move in place.

Since Ye Chuan dared to give him the power of Hollowification and heal him, he had naturally made complete preparations.

While giving Yamamoto Genryusai the power of Hollowification, he also used the power of the restraint to closely bind with his Hollowification power, and used his own majestic spiritual pressure as the foundation. As long as he had a thought of killing Ye Chuan in his heart, this hidden restraint would be activated instantly, binding him tightly.

“Not bad, Szayelaporro Granz has not been idle all these years!”

Ye Chuan looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who could not move, with a satisfied look on his face.

“Is this how you thank the benefactor who gave you the power of Hollowification?”

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes falling on Yamamoto Genryusai’s angry face with a smile, and said lightly.

“You have tainted me, making me lose my glory and purity as a Shinigami, and you are still talking nonsense here!”

Yamamoto Genryusai’s eyes widened, and anger surged in his eyes.

Ye Chuan had no doubt that as long as he released the restraint, this stubborn old man would definitely continue to rush up and fight him!

“Hahahaha, glory? The sword demon who used any means to win a thousand years ago is now talking about glory!”

When Ye Chuan heard what Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said, a sneer appeared on his face instantly.

“Stop playing your meaningless tricks, it’s like a children’s game!”

“Even if you lose your so-called glory, it is better than dying in despair after defeat, unable to reverse the situation!”

“Abandon your unrealistic and naive ideas, one day, you will be grateful for what I have done today!”

After the words fell, Ye Chuan turned around and strode away.

Without taking a few steps, his black hair instantly turned into dark gold, like flowing metallic luster; the plain white robe on his body quickly changed back to Arrancar clothes, and the Big Dipper shining with lightning on his chest instantly disappeared, and it was clear that he had withdrawn from the Segunda Etapa state.

Then, Ye Chuan waved his big hand, and the space was disturbed for a while. In this Dangai, he forcibly opened a black cavity leading to Hueco Mundo.

Just as he was about to step into the black cavity, Ye Chuan suddenly turned his head, looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni behind him, with a faint smile on his face, the smile with a bit of satisfaction and joy.

“I am very happy with today’s battle, thank you for your hospitality!”

After saying that, he stopped staying at all, and strode into the black cavity without looking back.

As the black cavity slowly closed, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who was bound, regained his ability to move. He stood quietly in place, his eyes fixed on the direction Ye Chuan left, his lips tightly closed, without saying a word.
