Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

What if, due to a moment of carelessness, the sword spirit's wife is kidnapped?

That's what's really bothering him!

Just now, he wasn't entirely sure that this thing was a star emblem.

I just thought this thing looked very similar to the Star Emblem in the anime, so I wanted Mayuri Kurotsuchi to take a look.

Unexpectedly, this woman had no sense of propriety and blurted out the answer directly.

"Taking Bankai is indeed a troublesome ability."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi nodded.

To put it bluntly, ninety percent of a Shinigami's power comes from his Zanpakuto.

Once their Bankai is taken away, the strength of the captains in the Gotei 13 will be greatly reduced.

I have to admit that I really misjudged him back then.

This advisor from the Technology Development Bureau was not stupid; on the contrary, he was very clever and knew to start with the power of the unseen.

Quincy are a race that has no "immunity" to Hollows; everything about Hollows is "toxin" to Quincy!

If corrupted by a Hollow, a Quincy will not only have their spiritual power weakened, but will eventually die from the collapse of their soul!

Since the Star Seals are tools developed by Quincy, the power of Hollows could indeed be a weakness of such tools.

Of course, whether the power of the virtual is actually useful can only be known through experimental research.

"Just tell me if you need any assistance, and I'll go to Hueco Mundo and get someone to help you!"

"It's Aozaki Mayuki," he said jokingly.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi was taken aback.

What do you mean?

From what you're saying, you have connections in Hueco Mundo?

The Captain-Commander's disciple colluded with Hueco Mundo?

Do you want to make headlines in the Ninth Division and ruin Captain-Commander Yamamoto's reputation?!

…………

"You two stay here for now. I've set up a barrier here, so it should be safe enough."

In a secret underground cell somewhere within the underground training grounds of Shuangji Hill, Aozaki Mayuki left the two of them and said...

Bambietta and Gatis looked up.

They were bound with black bandages that sealed their spiritual pressure, and they stared at Aozaki Mazuki with astonishment.

Did they... mishear?

I thought that even if I could save my life, I would suffer inhumane torture.

But this prison cell doesn't seem very proper.

All kinds of instruments of torture are available.

But what's with the big, comfortable-looking bed in the middle?

And although these instruments of torture are numerous and varied, they look quite like toys...

Hmm... this bed is really comfortable, almost too comfortable.

But after all, there is a deep-seated hatred between Shinigami and Quincy, so it seems inappropriate for them to be so kind to us.

At the very least, shouldn't they have done something outrageous?

Bambieta's face was frighteningly red.

She was already prepared.

After waiting for ages, Death didn't do anything at all!

She was extremely disappointed.

Aozaki Mayuki ignored their reactions and turned to leave the prison.

He went to another prison.

With a raised hand, he tore open space, and the next second a fiery figure fell out of the black hole.

"Its vitality is really strong."

Aozaki Mayuki nodded slightly, her gaze falling on Penida, whose body was trembling as she was engulfed in flames.

Compared to the Spirit King's left arm, which was already in their hands, obtaining the Spirit King's heart was by no means an easy task.

Yhwach will never again give Aozaki Mayuki the opportunity to act recklessly.

If he were to travel to the Unseen Empire again.

Yhwach might hand over all his power to Hasward without hesitation, and then it will definitely be a tough battle.

Thinking about this, Aozaki Mayuki couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Putting aside Haschward, Gerald's ability to cheat alone is enough to give anyone a headache.

You become stronger when you get hurt, and you become stronger when you die.

Penida could be restricted by the Ghost Path, but Gerard's situation was quite different.

Any negative impact inflicted on another person will be transformed into a positive effect.

Not to mention the Hado, even the Bakudo, which is mainly for restricting the target, has no effect on him.

"Therefore, the only way is to find a way to kill him before he can perform a miracle."

Aozaki Mayuki recalled her memories of her past life, stroking her chin and muttering to herself.

For Quincy, the ability of sacred texts should be considered an active skill.

It won't have any effect if you don't actively turn it on.

In the original storyline, Yhwach led the Sternritter to invade the Soul King's palace.

Oetsu Nimaiya of the Zero Division instantly killed Gerard with a single strike.

At that time, Gerrard did not use the power of "miracle".

He would have been dead long ago if he hadn't been resurrected by Yhwach's "sanctification".

Regarding paragraph comments and settings.

Now that everyone has read this chapter, some observant readers may have already noticed it.

I tend to be a bit of a stickler for details, and when I see comments questioning the content of this book, I really enjoy replying and explaining things to people.

But I suddenly realized that this was indeed taking up a lot of time and energy.

So I decided to get rid of this bad habit of being a know-it-all.

I will no longer respond to comments regarding the book's power levels, age settings, or other related issues.

However, please feel free to point out any typos or other errors in the comments section, and I will correct them when I see them.

Finally, I'm asking for three free little gifts every day, fueled by my love for this.

Chapter 303 Not Learning the Good Things

"You...you really...deserve to die!"

Penida roared intermittently, her large, bright eyes fixed on Aozaki Mazuki.

Its sound is somewhat like a child's babbling in a dream, making it difficult to hear clearly.

"That's interesting. Your learning ability is indeed very strong, but why are you only starting to learn now?"

Aoki Mayuki smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"If I had evolved to be powerful enough sooner, I wouldn't have been captured by you, would I?"

His tone carried a hint of regret, as if he felt sorry for Penida's potential, but a sense of doubt arose in his heart.

"Could it be that this learning ability is also part of your Holy Script ability?"

"So your status resets every time you deactivate your ability?"

His eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a look of curiosity.

Aozaki Mayuki's eyes were greedy, just like when Kurotsuchi Mayuri had looked at him earlier.

He looked at Penida with great interest and asked a whole host of questions.

However, Penida did not reply.

A slight glint appeared in its enormous pupils.

Perhaps it doesn't bother to answer.

Or perhaps its vocabulary is insufficient to respond to such complex dialogues.

Unable to get an answer, Aozaki Mayuki could only shake her head helplessly.

He sighed softly, the greed in his eyes gradually disappearing, replaced by a thoughtful expression.

"pain!"

A voice suddenly entered Aozaki Mayuki's ears.

Penida glared at him, her body trembling, and said haltingly:

“You mere Grim Reaper…you truly…deserve to die a thousand deaths…I will personally execute you…”

Aozaki Mayuki's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a disdainful smile, and she said:

"...Have you been corrupted by Gerald?"

Aozaki Mayuki sneered, and the fire suddenly intensified.

The flames on Penida's body burned even brighter.
