The Alchemist in Bleach

Having already experienced the successive confessions of love from the male and female members of the Fourth Division, He was quite used to it. Moreover, His personality was inherently rather indifferent, even somewhat lonely.

It's fair to say that if He hadn't wanted to do something for Ichiro, He would probably have stayed quietly in a corner, perfecting himself while watching the world change.

This is His duty, and also His passion.

"Moon Spirit... very much like Father..." Kamui muttered to himself, then turned around and said, "Come with me, let's get over there first. Hato, check the barrier and then follow us."

Jiu, the boy who had initially stopped Yue Ling and the others, nodded, glanced at them curiously, and then turned his attention to the barrier, beginning his routine inspection.

Although he was interested in the children of the "father" that Kamui often mentioned, the more important thing at the moment was maintaining the barrier, which concerned the lives of him and the dozens of brothers and sisters behind him, and could not be taken lightly.

On the other side, after tying her hair up, Yue Ling floated back onto Zero's shoulder and sat down, following behind Kamui. They chatted idly, mainly because they couldn't find anything to talk about, and it was mostly Zhi and Kamui who were talking; Yue Ling wasn't interested.

Kamui is a curious and intelligent life form. After all, it only has consciousness and can change its body (mecha) at will, which is incredible. As for Chi, he is interested in everything.

Although Ichiro loaded a lot of information into his database, for Satoshi, it was all just empty data. Every time he saw something real, he felt a sense of novelty, and every time he compared it, he would make new discoveries.

Of course, more importantly, he was very interested in Kamui's mother. What kind of person was she that would allow his father to marry her and have a child with her, and yet the world didn't complain at all? How clever must she be!

During their casual conversation, they arrived at the base. Looking at the scene before him, Zhi was somewhat surprised. Could this really be done by a group of virtual beings?

On a vast, flat area, the yellow sand had been cleared away, revealing the underlying rock layers. Above these rock layers stood houses of varying sizes. Although the size of their doors and windows differed, each house had doors and windows, and their locations were roughly the same.

Clearly, the size of the house was determined by the size of the occupants, rather than being built arbitrarily.

Moreover, although the sizes are different and the materials of the houses are very simple, just yellow sand and rocks, and then fixed together with some simple techniques, it can be seen that the planning is very orderly and there is not a trace of chaos. On the contrary, it adds a bit of beauty to them.

A gentle breeze blows, and wisps of yellow sand drift slowly between the rows of houses. Several children, with remnants of bone masks still on their heads, chase each other and playfully frolic. This harmonious scene brings a warm feeling to the heart.

Yue Ling looked down at the small village and nodded slightly. He had indeed remembered everything that had been taught to him and had absorbed it well, without simply copying it verbatim.

For example, although the houses are of different sizes, the streets are very orderly. Larger people can walk on them without feeling crowded, and smaller people can walk on them without feeling too empty. A good balance has been found among various factors.

The most telling example of Kamui's complete absorption rather than mere imitation is that there are no toilets here!

Yes, there are no toilets!

Because the Void doesn't need this at all. Their eating is essentially devouring, absorbing the spirit particles. Well, not completely absorbed, but these spirit particles still remain in their bodies and are not expelled.

This is why the Hollow initially retains some consciousness, but as it devours more people or Hollows, its consciousness gradually becomes chaotic. Besides being consumed by the ever-growing sense of emptiness, another important reason is that it does not completely absorb the souls of the Hollows and humans it devours. These residual impurities slowly accumulate, causing its consciousness to become extremely chaotic, eventually leading to madness.

Only when one becomes stronger can one gradually and completely absorb this portion of spiritual particles, thereby regaining sanity.

Therefore, physiological characteristics that arise from metabolism will not appear in the body of the weak, and they will naturally not need to use the toilet.

Don't underestimate these kinds of places; sometimes it's precisely these details that best demonstrate whether a person has a thorough understanding of the knowledge they've learned.

"It seems you're doing well."

"Not all of them were designed by me; some were designed by my other younger siblings." When talking about his younger siblings, a gentle smile appeared on Kamui's face, and the weariness in his eyes seemed to fade a lot in the face of this smile.

Yue Ling quietly looked at Kamui, and after a long while, said, "Perhaps, leaving you in Hueco Mundo was the right decision we ever made."

"Hmm?" Shenwei looked at Yueling with confusion, not quite understanding the meaning of her words.

"Don't worry about it. Remember Kamui. You are not Hollows. You are Hollows in their complete form, even better than most Hollows. Even if you are not as powerful as them, that is only temporary. Because you possess things that most Hollows can only dream of."

"what?"

"Emotions!" Yue Ling said, looking at the little Hollows playing in the village. "Both Hollows and Shinigami are tragic beings. The difference is that the tragedy of Shinigami is self-inflicted, while the tragedy of Hollows is innate. Shinigami at least have the power to choose, while Hollows only have one path. You are lucky to have met your father. You have brought another path to Hollows. You should be proud and continue to move forward. Kamui, the reason your Hollowhole disappeared is simply because your heart has been filled with emotions again."

The vast, empty black hole represents an empty heart, an abyss that no amount of souls can fill. Only the most sincere emotions within can fill it. So, cease your confusion, call upon its name, and unleash the power that rightfully belongs to you.

At first, Yue Ling was speaking normally, but in the last few sentences, her words carried a faint power, subtly guiding divine might.

When they first met, Yue Ling discovered that Kamui's hidden power was actually very strong. It wasn't that his absolute spiritual pressure was very high, but rather that his life form was very strong. However, he didn't know how to use this power at the moment.

Logically speaking, he should have spiritual pressure at the level of Vasto Lorde now, but the fact is, he can't even release his Zanpakuto. This is outrageous, really outrageous.

Even without the virtual symbols or voids, it's still the same.

You should know that Yue Ling has only heard of Hollows without Hollow holes from Ichiro. It seems that in the future there will be a Hollow like White Ichigo without Hollow holes in its normal state. When a Hollow no longer has Hollow holes, it means that its life form has changed and it belongs to a higher level.

Because the ultimate goal of emptiness is to fill the void in one's heart, and Kamui has already achieved that.

Even if the absolute spiritual pressure value doesn't change instantly, at least the learning ability should be maxed out, so there's no reason why it shouldn't be able to release the zombie.

But Kamui just can't do it.

That's why Yue Ling talked to him so much, slowly guiding him to erase the shadows in his heart, face himself, and bring out his most essential power, namely, Return to the Blade!

"There's no need to be afraid... Am I really normal?"

Guided by the power of the moon spirit, Kamui murmured softly, gradually opening his heart and revealing his true feelings.

“You are normal. As I said, the reason your void disappeared is because of your love for your mother, your father, and your younger siblings. This love filled the emptiness in your heart, and naturally, the void disappeared. As time goes by, their voids will also disappear. You are no different from your younger siblings because of your father’s transformation.”

After all, your younger siblings were born based on you, the version of yourself that your father modified.

"Were my younger siblings created based on me? So, am I really their older brother? Am I the same as them?"

"Of course it's the same. Besides, do you think the bond between you is so fragile that it needs to be maintained by blood? We don't actually have a blood relationship with our father, so will the bond between us be broken because of that? Emotional connection is far superior to blood connection. Some people share the same blood, but they can betray you for their own benefit, while others have no blood relation, but they can risk their lives for you because of their feelings for you. Does blood really have such a big impact on feelings?"

As Yue Ling spoke, the gloom in Shenwei's eyes gradually faded, and his aura slowly rose; his power was slowly reviving...

Zhi glanced at Yue Ling on his shoulder, then at Shen Wei whose aura was growing stronger. While releasing an isolation barrier, he secretly admired Yue Ling's ability to whisper between the mind. It was truly amazing!

He can attack, defend, provide support, and even help others break through defenses—he's incredibly versatile!

The key point is that this is only one of the Moon Spirit's skills. Although the Moon Spirit's Whisper of the Mind is powerful, it is not the type that can rely on one trick to succeed. On the contrary, it is the same as Ichiro and Urahara, with so many tricks up its sleeve that it's like an old sow wearing a bra—one after another!

However, Moon Spirit's Mind Whisper is so powerful that few people have seen His second skill so far. Of course, this is also related to the fact that He rarely fights.

Whisper of the Mind is an ability that Tsukishiro developed, inspired by Ichiro's nightmare. It allows him to use his words to interfere with his enemies. Of course, while it is called interference, it is actually very close to control. Only those with similar spiritual pressure can be immune to it.

But His whispers of the soul affect more than just living things...

His whispers of the mind can directly control the ground, the air, slashes, the demonic path, and even the rules!

Furthermore, because it was created inspired by nightmares, the whispers of the mind, regardless of their function, will carry illusionary properties and are impossible to defend against, because this sound not only echoes in your ears but also in your mind...

It's impossible to defend against at all.

Offensively, it can manipulate various material attacks and cast illusions; defensively, it can counter most attacks; and in support, it can buff various statuses and even, as it does now, help others break through.

Just like when he helped Shenwei now, under the guidance of Yue Ling's whispered words, the gloom in his heart faded away, his eyes became brighter, and confidence reappeared in his eyes.

"Whoo~~~"

He exhaled a long breath, releasing all the pent-up frustration in his heart. Kamui gently placed his right hand on the Zanpakuto at his waist and slowly drew it out, while softly chanting.

"Descend, O illusory sun!"

As Kamui whispered, his Zanpakuto and its scabbard vanished instantly, and at the same time, a huge black sphere appeared behind him!

"After the resurrection, there was no change in its form; only the blade and scabbard disappeared. As expected, Kamui is the most perfect Arrancar, even stronger than that self-reliant Arrancar, Stark."

"In terms of strength?"

"Of course not. Do you think your powerful computing ability is just for show? It's such a simple question."

"Don't you think it's a waste of computing power to solve such a simple problem?"

"..." That makes so much sense, He was speechless.

"By the way, what kind of ability does he have? I can't figure it out."

"You can tell just by the name, right? Xu Ri, Ri means the sun. At times like this, you should turn off your automatic translation."

"Hmm... this ability is pretty awesome~"

"Not bad, watchable." Yue Ling quietly watched Kamui, who was experiencing the power of his Resurrection Blade, her face expressionless. She glanced at Zero's restrained stance, which was beginning to distort due to the power of the Void Sun, and her lips parted slightly.

“I say that within a radius of five miles of this place, no power should be leaked out, and no information should be investigated.”

------------

I need to take leave.

I have a bit of a cold today and am not feeling well. I've been writing and deleting, but I still don't feel good. I've thought about it and decided to ask for leave. I'm very sorry.

Chapter 228 Plan Changed

As Yue Ling spoke, an invisible wave spread out, instantly suppressing Shen Wei's terrifying power, which was about to break through the restraint field, within a certain range, preventing it from crossing even half a step!

This scene shocked Kamui, and at the same time, the surging feeling in his heart caused by the powerful strength of the Void Sun quietly disappeared.

"Only fools are controlled by power; true strongmen are those who control power."

These are the words Ichiro said to Kamui back then, and he still remembers them to this day.

He closed his eyes slightly and calmed himself down to understand the abilities he gained after releasing his Zanpakuto.

A moment later, the sun behind Kamui, which seemed to be obscured by a shadow, slowly dissipated, and the Zanpakuto re-formed at Kamui's waist. As the release of the Resurrection Blade was released, Kamui slowly opened his eyes.

"Yueling, thank you. Without you, I don't know when I would have been able to master this power."

"No need to thank me. If your foundation isn't solid enough, my whispered thoughts won't work. But that's all the whispered thoughts can do for you. You'll have to walk the rest of the road yourself. Remember, while mindset is important for the strong, it's not everything."

Faced with Yue Ling's teachings, Shen Wei nodded solemnly: "I understand."

"What's your ability after you release your Zanpakuto? It feels really strong. Even my restraint field couldn't suppress it." At this moment, Satoshi asked curiously from the side.

"The Void Sun? It is quite strong. The Void Sun's ability is very simple, just like its name, an illusory sun. It possesses endless spiritual power. At the same time, after its Shikai, my spiritual pressure destructive power will be greatly enhanced. It is almost an all-around ability."

"Endless spiritual power, so powerful... Father could only achieve this with Bankai. I can't believe how strong your Second Release Jutsu will be."

Faced with Zhi's exclamation, Shenwei smiled but remained silent.

Yue Ling glanced at Zhi but didn't say anything. Zhi's personality was such that he couldn't keep secrets unless he was really locked up like an artificial intelligence. However, that would go against Zhi's personal wishes. Therefore, Ichiro's approach was to keep things truly confidential and he wouldn't explain them to Zhi much.

Take Kamui's current abilities, for example. In reality, Kamui doesn't have a second stage of Resurrection. His Resurrection only has one stage, Hollow Sun, which is already his most complete ability. Going beyond that is just an increase in intensity.

Of course, this is not entirely due to the power of the Hollow Sun. Kamui's power was modified by Ichiro and is one of the products of his early ability experiments. In addition, after so many years of wild growth, Kamui's Hollow Sun is extremely terrifying!

First, there is the endless spiritual power, the illusory sun, a false sun. However, although this sun is false, it is not entirely false. The true ability of the illusory sun is actually to devour. The origin of the endless spiritual power is that after the illusory sun devours the surrounding spiritual particles, it stimulates these spiritual particles to a certain extent, just like nuclear fusion, which can release enormous energy, which can be said to be endless.

Then comes the true core power of the Void Sun—devouring!

There is a certain chance that the divine power will seize some of the characteristics or abilities of what the void sun devours!

If he can further understand and master this ability in the future, then he will be able to seize any ability he wants at will!

This is the Void Sun, possessing the power of infinite possibilities!
