Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

“The spiritual pressure, which had already slowed down, has resumed its rapid growth phase, as if it has returned to its days as an insei.”

As Yoruichi familiarized herself with the changes, Naraku Sora suddenly remembered something very important.

"By the way, would you be interested in visiting Las Noches?"

Yoruichi paused for a moment, then nodded happily: "Okay."

She had been curious about Hueco Mundo since the team leader meeting, so she naturally wouldn't refuse Naraku's invitation.

Soon, with someone's help, Yoruichi arrived at the first stop on her tour—

Prison.

Despite her curiosity, she went inside for a walk out of trust.

Just then, a ripple of ink painting appeared before Naraku Sora's eyes.

[Successfully suppressed the sinner Yoruichi Shihouin, sin value 1024, participation rate 100%!]

[Your spiritual pressure has increased; you are currently at the limit of First-Rank Spiritual Power!]

[Your understanding of Hakuda has improved, and you have perfectly mastered the Shihouin family's Hakuda secret techniques!]

[Your understanding of the Instant Step has improved, and you have perfectly mastered the stealth footwork "Four Maple Leaves"!]

Looking at the words above, Naraku Sora frowned slightly.

It seems things aren't unfolding as originally expected.

Which link in the chain went wrong?

Where is my invincible transcendent realm?

Chapter 352 Taking a Different Approach

wrong.

His extraordinary wisdom told him that there must be something fishy going on.

Naraku Sora frowned, trying to put himself in Aizen's way of thinking.

Based on existing information, it is known that whether it is a Shinigami or a Hollow, in order to become a transcendent, one must first break through the limits of one's own soul.

The simplest method is to blur or break the surface, just like Yamamoto.

Hundreds of years ago, or even earlier, he had already reached the limit of the first-class spiritual power, just one step away from becoming a transcendent being.

Blur effect is its biggest advantage.

Other Shinigami who Hollowfied could also break through the limits of the soul, but due to their relatively weak strength, they were unable to reach the level of the Transcendent.

The only thing I can do is to cultivate myself diligently and strive to catch a glimpse of the mountain's scenery in my lifetime.

In addition, there is the power of the Spirit King.

For example, the members of the Zero Division were just Shinigami captains in Soul Society.

However, after ascending to the Spirit King Palace, one can use the power of the Spirit King to rebuild their body and become a transcendent being.

The third is the fusion with the Hogyoku.

Essentially the same principle as building a King Key, only the details are different.

Of course, these are just Aizen's guesses, and the actual situation should be taken into account.

But all these methods share a common core: breaking down the original boundaries of the soul.

Well, the problem is coming.

Has he already broken through the boundaries of the soul?

Naraku suddenly realized a crucial point: because his Hollowfication was too perfect, his soul was exceptionally strong.

The power of Hollows and the power of Death merged perfectly, forming a very special entity.

If you calculate it that way, then he never broke through that barrier on his soul from beginning to end.

My head is so itchy, it feels like something is about to grow out.

No, this kind of thing should be left to the professionals. His extraordinary wisdom isn't meant for this.

In a world where the technology tree is completely misguided and gods exist, solving problems related to the soul is no less difficult than getting Yamamoto to stop using Ryujin Jakka to roast sweet potatoes.

No matter how you look at it, this kind of difficult work shouldn't be assigned to me.

……

……

After accompanying Yoruichi on a tour of Las Noches, Naraku Sora sent her back to Soul Society, telling her to familiarize herself with the power of Hollowfication and, incidentally, promote it to the other captains.

Then, he hurriedly went to find Aizen.

After listening to someone's account, Aizen fell silent.

Sometimes, he really wanted to pry open Naraku Sora's head to see if it was a brain or just muscles inside.

Although, based on his experience, the latter is more likely.

But even if someone is truly intelligent, they shouldn't be able to guess the truth without any concrete theoretical support, right?

Long ago, when Naraku was conducting some research, he had already discovered—

This guy's soul is extraordinary.

The two forces are perfectly integrated, forming a soul barrier that is ten or even a hundred times stronger than other Grim Reapers.

No, there should be three now.

Aizen suddenly realized that this guy could even use the Quincy's exclusive Spirit Particle Cluster.

Although I've rarely seen this guy use it, he definitely knows how.

If it were anyone else, the combination of these three forces would have already broken through the boundaries of the soul.

The normal methods no longer work on Naraku Sora; we must find another way.

"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, I have to say that your guess was correct."

Aizen calmly said, "I'm still thinking about the specific method to break through your soul's boundaries. Please be patient and give me some more time..."

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Naraku:

"No need to think about it anymore, just make sure the guess is correct."

"As for how to become a transcendent being, hmph..."

"I have a brilliant plan!"

Looking at the smug look on someone's face, Aizen suddenly felt a strong sense of unease.

…………

Following the Fifth Division Captain Hirako Shinji's display of overwhelming Hollowfication power at the team leader meeting, where he single-handedly defeated three captains, news of another captain possessing Hollowfication abilities has once again ignited the Seireitei.

Second Division Captain, Yoruichi Shihouin.

He and Naraku Sora are extremely close; I've heard they're practically inseparable.

As a result, countless rumors circulated wildly among the high-ranking officials of Seireitei.

Some captains who were still observing could no longer suppress their impulses and secretly headed to the Zhenyang Prison under the cover of night.

"Don't panic, don't rush, don't urge."

Naraku Ku stood guard at the gate, sporting his signature kind smile.

"As long as everyone cooperates honestly, I guarantee that everyone will be able to appreciate the charm of etherealization."

"At that time, the strength of the Gotei 13's top brass will increase several times over, without any problem at all."

Seeing Naraku Sora's warm hospitality, Kensei Muguruma and the others thought they had come to the wrong place.

Kensei Rokusha couldn't help but show a suspicious expression, wondering if someone had some ulterior motive.

But then I thought, all of them combined probably wouldn't be enough to beat Nai Luo Kong by himself.

If the other party tries to force something, they will find it difficult to resist given their strength.

Anyway, we've already come this far.

Rather than struggling painfully, it might be better to give up the resistance; that way, you might suffer less.

Soon, more people came to sign up.

Unsurprisingly, it was the captain of the new Gotei 13, the Naraku Group, led by Kyoga Kuchiki.

As among the first people, besides Aizen and others, to know about the Hueco Mundo incident, they placed the strongest trust in Naraku Sora.

and so.

When they learned that becoming ethereal could make them stronger and allow them to better serve their captain, they flocked to the Technology Development Bureau.

"Considering that the virtualization experiment might cause some unnecessary consequences, we are prepared to go to the underground prison to conduct it."

"The place has been reinforced as many as thirty-nine times, which can effectively isolate spiritual pressure conflicts, making it the perfect experimental site."

Naraku Sora stood on the high platform, his voice booming.

Kensei Muguruma's expression was somewhat strange as he looked at Komamura Sajin and the others around him who were looking on expectantly.

He was naturally aware of the existence of the new Gotei 13, and knew that there were many captain-level Shinigami among them.

But when all these people stood in front of him all at once, the psychological impact was truly difficult to express in words.

It's like putting a bank card with ten million in it next to ten million in cash; the latter will definitely have a greater visual impact.

Although both have the same value.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Naraku waved his hand and headed to the underground prison first.

Komamura Sajin and others followed closely behind.

Kensei and his companions looked at each other, but finally gritted their teeth and followed.
