The Alchemist in Bleach

With Hueco Mundo as the wolf in front and the Wandenreich as the tiger behind, Seireitei has no time to deal with the Quincy. Moreover, the remaining pure-blooded Quincy are all high-end combatants!

Extremely powerful in combat!

This is really a difficult task for them.

However, absorbing this power is actually quite useless. Who do you think he can deal with?

False?

Forget it, are you telling us to do it because the spiritual energy imbalance isn't happening fast enough?

An invisible empire?

Yhwach is not only the king of the Wandenreich, but also the king of all Quincy!

He has a very high reputation among the Quincy. If he were to rally them, who knows how many would betray him? And even if they don't betray him, it won't matter. Yhwach can take away the power of any Quincy at any time and kill them instantly!

So now the idea of ​​the Central 46 is to simply go all out and take action to eliminate the Quincy!

To prevent future troubles!

but.......

Things aren't that easy...

Hueco Mundo is under control for now, but the Wandenreich could launch a counterattack at any time. Yhwach absorbed so much spiritual pressure from the Quincy hybrids in order to recover his power, and no one knows how much he has recovered. The Thirteen Divisions must now avoid any war!

so.......

I feel terrible...

The Captain-Commander frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked Ichiro, "Can you develop a technology to prevent Yhwach from draining the Quincy's power?"

Ichiro paused for a moment, then realized what he meant: "Captain-Commander, you mean to tell them the whole truth and then help them figure out a way to prevent Yhwach from draining his power?"

After saying that, without waiting for the Captain-Commander's reply, Ichiro nodded to himself. This plan was indeed feasible, as long as they could convince the Quincy that the deaths of the half-Queens had nothing to do with them, the Shinigami, and that it was all Yhwach's doing.

Then the crisis will be resolved, and they can prepare for the battle against the Invisible Empire with peace of mind.

After all, no one would entrust their life to a cold-blooded and heartless person, but...

"Countermeasures must be difficult to research, right?" Harusui voiced Ichiro's concerns.

“It will definitely be difficult. Our understanding of Yhwach is extremely limited, only information. We don’t know what his abilities are composed of, or how closely they are related to the Quincy’s power. Even Ichiro probably wouldn’t be able to do anything about it.” Shutaro answered the question for Ichiro.

“Yes, it’s difficult.” Ichiro nodded.

To be honest, he had a contingency plan in mind, but it was just a contingency plan, and he wasn't sure if it would work.

"Research is a minor matter. As long as you want to do research, you can find a direction by looking around. The most crucial thing is how we conduct experiments?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. Some of the team leaders, though they didn't understand scientific research, knew one thing: practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.

No matter how good your design is, if you don't test it, how will you know if it will work?

How do we conduct the experiment?

Should we run up to Yhwach and let him try drawing one?

Isn't that nonsense?

"Sigh~ Let's discuss this matter again. Before we find a clear countermeasure, don't reveal this information to the Quincy in the real world. I'm worried that they will completely side with the Wandenreich because of this." The Captain-Commander sighed and said in a heavy tone.

Everyone solemnly agreed. However, what Ichiro and the others didn't know was that the pure-blooded Quincy in the world already had a general idea of ​​the reason for the large-scale deaths of half-blood Quincy...

Their king.......

came back!

Chapter 315 Incorrect Calculation, Correct Prediction

"King? What kind of king is that?! What kind of king would devour his own people to regain his power?!"

In the present world, in the ancestral land of the Ishida family, Ryugen roared furiously at Sogen.

He couldn't understand why these people in his tribe would still have any hope for that inexplicable king, even though so many people had died! Many of them were their relatives and friends!

"Because he is the king! He is the king of us Quincy! He will lead us to restore the glory of the Quincy!"

"The glory of the Quincy? Do you really believe that?" Ryugen looked coldly at Sogen.

Zongxian lowered his head, his gaze fixed on the ground: "Whether I believe it or not is unimportant. The Extinction Masters believe that in this chaos, none of us pure-blooded Extinction Masters suffered any casualties."

"Ye Hui is dead." (Long Xian's wife, a Quincy hybrid)

Zongxian paused for a moment, then said to Longxian in disappointment, "To achieve great things, sacrifice is inevitable. Masaki of the Kurosaki family is dead. We absolutely cannot leave our fate in the hands of death again!"

"So, is it enough to just hand it over to a so-called king who wantonly slaughters his people?" Long Xian said sarcastically.

Zongxian remained silent in the face of Longxian's sarcasm.

"I'll ask you one last time, is this what you mean?" Ryugen pouted in disappointment, looked down at Sogen sitting on the tatami mat, and asked softly.

Zongxian paused for a moment, then said with his head still bowed, "This is the decision of all pure-blooded Quincy!"

"Heh~ Pureblood? How laughable~" Upon receiving the answer, Ryuken chuckled disdainfully and took out a silver badge from his pocket. "This is what you gave me when I came of age. You said I was your pride, the pride of the Quincy. Now, I return this badge, which represents the highest honor of the Quincy, to you. From this day forward, I, Ryuken Ishida, am no longer a Quincy!"

After saying that, he placed the badge and the Quincy Cross in front of Zongxian, then turned and left. When he reached the door, Longxian glanced at Zongxian, who was still sitting there staring blankly at the silver badge and the Quincy Cross.

"Ye Hui's matter is not over. I hope that it wasn't you standing in my way back then. I don't want to kill you!"

After saying that, Ryuken pushed open the door and walked out, leaving Zongxian alone in the room, silently looking at the badge and Quincy Cross on the table.

Sogen was also deeply saddened by Ye Hui's death, but there was nothing he could do. He was first and foremost the leader of the pureblood Quincy, then the leader of the Quincy, then the head of the Ishida family, and finally, the father of Ryugen and Ye Hui...

The King's return is a great disaster for the Quincy, but at the same time, it is also an opportunity!

Even if Yhwach, the legendary king, was incredibly cruel, at least his pure-blooded members could be preserved. But if it were Death...

That's hard to say...

At this moment, Zongxian also understood that the reason why the Shinigami and the Quincy joined forces more than a hundred years ago was probably because they discovered Yhwach's whereabouts and reluctantly negotiated with them out of fear of harming him.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why Death's assassination squad, which was clearly in position, suddenly withdrew just before they were about to make their move.

They actually had no choice. If Yhwach lost this battle, then Death's next target would be them, no matter which side they were on!

So despite Yhwach's heinous actions, Sogen and the others still wanted to stand with Yhwach. At least, the Quincy wouldn't all die out and could continue to exist...

Longxian was not unaware of these principles, but knowing and agreeing are two different things!

Besides, entrusting one's life and fortune to a capricious tyrant might not have yielded any better results than it does now. Compared to others, Long Xian has more faith in his own abilities...

Well, even the Quincy power, which could be taken away at any moment, is no longer trustworthy. Now, the only person he can trust is himself.

After leaving the Ishida residence, Ryugen stood there for a moment, then headed towards the Kurosaki residence.

As a legendary Quincy, his strength is undoubtedly very powerful. He alone is definitely not enough, not to mention that as a Quincy, he might directly take away his power!

So now he needs to find an ally, and that person is definitely not Aizen, even though they have been cooperating for so many years and seem to have developed some tacit understanding.

But in Ryugen's heart, he was always wary of Aizen. He always felt that this person was definitely plotting something, and it was definitely not what they were saying.

Therefore, Aizen is not trustworthy.

The only person I can trust now is that slovenly guy. At least on this matter, they are definitely on the same side. That guy was a captain for a few years, so he should be reliable, right?

........

Meanwhile, Isshin, whom Ryūgen trusted, was being held captive in Urahara's shop, bound hand and foot, shouting and struggling, looking rather comical.

Unfortunately, Urahara and the others couldn't laugh at this, because they could sense the sorrow beneath Isshin's comical actions...

"What should we do?" Yoruichi looked at Urahara with some concern as she watched Isshin acting crazy. After all, she was Isshin's junior.

"Let him vent. We have to believe in him. He can get through this. Besides, he has three children. Even for their sake, he will get through it. As for now, let's just wait and see."

"Sigh~" Yoruichi sighed, paused for a moment, and then asked, "What do you think...?"

“It couldn’t have been those old men who gave the order. They don’t have the ability or the guts.” Before Yoruichi could finish asking, Urahara shook his head. “Killing all the Quincy hybrids in an instant is something that current technology can’t achieve. Ichiro could do it if he prepared for five or six years. He has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. But these Quincy hybrids were drained of their spiritual energy and died from exhaustion. Ichiro couldn’t do that either.”

"So, it can only be that guy...?" Yoruichi's expression was somewhat solemn.

Yhwach, a legendary figure whom even the Captain-Commander couldn't kill, has likely become even stronger a thousand years later!

“Only he has the ability. Let’s take it one step at a time. Yhwach… he’s a troublesome guy. I wonder if that little guy can handle him…” Urahara’s fan slightly obscured the lower half of his face, and his eyes, hidden in the shadows beneath the smoke, gleamed with an inscrutable light.

In recent years, his various plans and experiments have been progressing smoothly. Not long ago, even the long-dormant Humanoid Hogyoku project was started again. Everything was slowly getting on track. However, Yhwach's actions really made Urahara feel uncomfortable.

The most pressing issue was the upbringing of Ichigo's son, Ichiko.

In the current timeline, perhaps influenced by Ichiro, Urahara did not collect human souls to create Soul King candidates as in the original work, or perhaps he did it in the Seireitei, obtained the data, and did not want to continue.

In short, the two children from the original story were never born, so Urahara's experiment on the Soul King is now limited to Ichigo.

Ichigo, who inherited the excellent bloodlines of Isshin and Masaki, lived up to Urahara's expectations, with his spiritual pressure being ridiculously strong from birth!

Even among the five noble families, where geniuses abound, he was among the top tier.

Originally, according to Urahara's plan, Ichigo was supposed to begin training as a Shinigami and Quincy in a year or two. Only in this way would his immense spiritual pressure not pose a danger to him.

But now it seems uncertain...

Given the current situation, Isshin is unlikely to guide Ichigo's training before dealing with Yhwach. One reason is that he doesn't want them to fight and prefers them to live ordinary lives. Another reason is that he cannot confirm whether Ichigo will become a hybrid or a pureblood after undergoing Quincy training.

Purebloods are fine, but once they are mixed-bloods, the situation becomes extremely dangerous!

Therefore, as a father, Isshin will basically not allow Ichigo to participate in Shinigami training, unless he sends him back to the Shiba family in Soul Society to receive Shiba family training.

But that's impossible. Yixin can't return now. How long has it been? If he goes back now, everything he did before will be in vain.

Unfortunately, this was tough on Urahara. In his plan, Ichigo's growth was a crucial part. He didn't have Ichiro's amazing abilities, but through step-by-step guidance, he believed that Ichigo would eventually grow into someone like the Moon Spirit, on par with the Soul King, rather than just a substitute.

Unfortunately, there have been many setbacks recently, so we need to reconsider our strategy...

On the other hand, after regaining consciousness, Ichiro sat on the bed and made some changes to his plans based on the meeting's content. The good news was that Yhwach should be able to fully recover; this was just a sign that he was recovering.

Because he remembered that in the original work, something similar happened to Yhwach before his return, and Ishida Uryu's mother died because of it, and Ichigo's mother was also indirectly killed by it.

Even if reality differs, the impact should be minimal. After all, in the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, Yhwach still needed some time to recover to his peak condition, so they should still have time now!

Unfortunately, Ichiro overlooked one point: in the original story, there were far fewer Quincy who had been besieged by Shinigami than there are Quincy who haven't been besieged now...
