Death's Hidden Mobile

"Ugh, this truck is so annoying."

The orange-haired boy, Ichigo Kurosaki, let out a complaint.

Masaki Kurosaki said with a smile, "Then let's switch places, and let Mom stand outside."

Ichigo Kurosaki shook his head and said, "No need, I'm wearing a raincoat. Besides, I need to protect Mom."

Masaki Kurosaki said with a smile, "What a good child. But this won't do. You can stand outside when you can defeat Tatsuki."

As she spoke, Masaki Kurosaki wiped Ichigo Kurosaki's face.

Ichigo Kurosaki said, "I've already beaten him once."

"Really? Okay, it's clean now, let's go."

Masaki Kurosaki took Ichigo's hand and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, Ichigo Kurosaki saw a girl with bob haircut standing on the bank of the street, getting soaked in the rain.

"not good."

Ichigo Kurosaki thought she wanted a river, so he rushed over to save her.

"Ichigo, come back."

Kurosaki Masaki shouted and chased after her, but when Kurosaki Ichigo got close to the girl, she suddenly changed.

His body split apart, transforming into a giant Hollow that lunged at Ichigo Kurosaki.

This virtual character is called Grandfisher.

This Hollow can disguise itself in human form to attract those with high spiritual power, and then attack them. Over the course of fifty years, it has attacked the Grim Reaper and those with high spiritual power multiple times.

Ichigo Kurosaki will encounter him again in the future, but he escapes. Afterwards, he returns to Hueco Mundo, is transformed into an Arrancar by Aizen, and is eventually killed by Isshin Kurosaki.

"not good."

Faced with the Hollow's attack, Masaki Kurosaki shielded Ichigo Kurosaki, but without power, how could she possibly withstand the Hollow?

But at that moment, a sword light flashed, and the Void was cleaved in two from head to toe, turning into a corpse.

A slightly stronger Hollow, but not yet a Ragnarok, so its strength is relatively weak.

In the future, Kurosaki Isshin could kill him with a single sword strike after he was debunked, so how could he not defeat him?

"Huh? What happened?"

Masaki Kurosaki looked around blankly, but didn't see anyone.

"Mom, what is this?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked, looking at the corpse on the ground with some fear.

Masaki Kurosaki quickly said, "It's alright, Ichigo, let's go back quickly."

The two left in a hurry, and only after they were gone did Xia Yan leisurely leave and return to the warehouse.

At this point, twenty-four years have passed since Xia Yan arrived in the modern world, and there are still six years before the story officially begins.

However, Xia Yan is still one step away from achieving eighth-level spiritual pressure.

When Xia Yan returned to the warehouse, Yadomaru Lisa saw him and asked, "You went out for a stroll again? Why are you back so soon this time?"

Xia Yan tucked in his cloak and said, "It's raining outside."

Lisa Yadomaru nodded, while Xia Yan went to the underground training ground, summoned Tenraimaru, and continued to temper his body with the magnetic field.

Xia Yan's body continued to increase in density, and over these fourteen years, Xia Yan's steel skin was completely successful.

Kido, Shunpo, Hakuda, and Xia Yan have all made great progress.

Xia Yan can now unleash the Black Coffin of the Ninety-First Path without chanting, but its power is still relatively weak, only a quarter of its original strength.

It's still a ways off from achieving one-third of Aizen's power.

boom.

As Xia Yan's magnetic field rotated, his spiritual power suddenly changed, becoming even greater and denser.

Eighth-level spiritual pressure.

Xia Yan stood up. He had finally achieved his goal and become a super captain-level combatant.

Even among the Gotei 13, only a handful of people possess such spiritual pressure, and Natsuhiko can maintain his Hollowwing form for an even longer period.

In his Hollowfied Twin Lightning Wings state, Xia Yan was confident he could contend with Aizen.

But that's not enough; I'm not strong enough to defeat him right now.

Only Bankai can achieve this.

But with six years left, will I be able to achieve Bankai?

Chapter 112: Predicament

"No, it cannot be materialized."

Xia Yan sat cross-legged on the ground, his Zanpakuto resting on his knees, looking somewhat troubled.

Because he was unable to materialize his Zanpakuto, he was unable to subdue it and master its Bankai.

The Shikai and Bankai of a Zanpakuto are different. Shikai requires communication and synchronization. You need to communicate with the Zanpakuto with your soul, synchronize with the Zanpakuto, obtain the name of the Zanpakuto, and then perform Shikai.

However, Bankai is about materialization and submission; one must materialize the Zanpakuto and make it submit.

Of course, there are many ways to submit. It doesn't necessarily have to be victory. You can also gain recognition through your own strength. But no matter what, you need to manifest your Zanpakuto.

Xia Yan tried many times, but could not achieve this.

"Are you sure you don't want to use the Transformation Body technique?"

Beside Xia Yan, Yoruichi Shihouin stood there, holding a human-shaped plaque in her hand, and said, "Using the Transcendental Body will allow you to quickly master Bankai."

Xia Yan said with a wry smile, "But I'll likely be killed."

He knew very well what the Transcendental Body was; it was one of the most important special spiritual tools of the Covert Force, capable of forcibly transposing and materializing the original form of the Zanpakuto.

Ichigo Kurosaki used this method to materialize Zangetsu, defeat Zangetsu, and then master Bankai.

Of course, the Zangetsu that appeared was not Zangetsu, but the power of the Quincy. Why it could be transferred out is unclear.

The manifestation of the Divine Body is very powerful; if one cannot subdue it, one will be killed by it.

Unlike Ichigo Kurosaki, who had already exhibited materialization phenomena, I feel a sense of identification with him.

Even Renji Abarai's first Bankai was incomplete; he only mastered it after his Zanpakuto was manifested.

If you can't even materialize it, you can't prove your strength; you don't even have the possibility of materializing your Zanpakuto.

If he rashly uses his divine body to forcibly unleash his Zanpakuto, he would be no match for him.

Don't be upset.

Yoruichi Shihouin patted Natsuhiko on the shoulder and said, "Let's go soak in a hot spring."

Xia Yan stood up and asked, "Is it ready to use now?"

A few days ago, during a friendly competition, they broke the ground and discovered an underground spring. So they built a hot spring, and to their surprise, it's already usable.

Shihōin nodded and said, "Yes, and the hot spring's usage time is set. You can use it today."

"May I?"

Xia Yan excitedly ran back to his room, grabbed a towel, and went to a corner of the underground training ground, which was surrounded by walls. Xia Yan rushed in through a side door. Inside, there was a lot of mist. Xia Yan took off his clothes and jumped in, splashing water everywhere.

"It's so hot."

Xia Yan soaked in the hot spring, feeling the heat spreading around him. The water temperature here was around 43 degrees Celsius, which was considered high.

Xia Yan was soaking in the hot spring. After a while, the door opened, and a voice walked in and said, "I'll take a bath too."

"Yoruichi-senpai, you, you're going to take a bath too?"

Xia Yan looked at Yoruichi and asked in great surprise.

Ye nodded and said, "Of course, after training with you for so long, I should definitely take a bath."

As she spoke, Yoruichi took off her clothes. Seeing her actions, Natsuhiko quickly turned his head away.

Thump.

Yoruichi jumped into the hot spring and said with a smile, "What's wrong, kid? Come soak in the hot spring."

Xia Yan raised her neck and said, "But, but you are a woman."

Yoruichi laughed and said, "What's the big deal? Don't forget you're not an adult yet."

Today, Xia Yan is only fifty-eight years old, and there are still two years until the original work begins.

In Soul Society, one is considered an adult at least one hundred years old.

Xia Yan blushed, not daring to look at Yoruichi, but at that moment, several voices rang out from outside, "It's finally finished. Shall we take a bath today?"

"Of course it's our turn. How could those men get ahead of us?"

As the voice rang out, two figures appeared at the doorway; they were Risa Yadomaru and Shiro Kunan.

Upon seeing them, Xia Yan shouted, "Don't take them off!"

"Xia Yan, what are you doing here?" Lisa Yadomaru's voice came from outside.

"Yeah, today is girls' time, what brings you here?" Jiu Nanbai leaned in and stared intently at Xia Yan.

"The girl's usage time? Yoruichi-senpai said I could use it today." Natsuhiko looked at Yoruichi, his expression somewhat puzzled.

Yoruichi smiled and said, "I think Natsuhiko is just a kid, so I told him he can use it today. You don't mind, do you?"

Lisa Yadomaru nodded and said, "Xia Yan is indeed not an adult yet, so let him shower with us."

"That's right, that's right."

Jiu Nanbai had already taken off her clothes and jumped into the hot spring pool. With a bang, the water burst open as she dived directly into the water, revealing her fair body bathing in the water.

Lisa Yadomaru also began to take off her clothes, while Natsuhiko kept his head down, not daring to look around, his face flushed.

puff.

Lisa Yadomaru jumped into the water from next to Natsuhiko and sat down to his right.
