Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

He looked at Ginjou Kugo, whose features were contorted with rage, with some surprise. After scrutinizing him from head to toe, he clicked his tongue in amazement.

If I remember correctly, in the original timeline, this was a perverted Fullbringer who almost drove Ichigo to a mental breakdown.

Although he taught Ichigo Fullbring, his purpose was to steal Ichigo's power.

The starting point was not good.

But after all, he was a boss who almost broke Ichigo's defenses, and yet he just fell like that?

Come to think of it, how many of those who are targeted by the even bigger boss, Aizen, end up with a good ending?

It can only be said that there are differences between bosses.

However, there is another problem: if this guy is gone, who will fill the gap in Ichigo's Fullbring ability?

No, with a butterfly flapping its wings like myself around, it's questionable whether Ichigo could even be born.

In the original timeline, not so many disasters occurred.

However, we cannot let our guard down.

If something as outrageous as the chaos in hell has happened, what else is impossible?

If Aizen ever gets the urge to create a worthy opponent, Ichigo might just be born.

In truth, after all that has happened, the original timeline has long been messed up.

The only certainty now is that the day when Yhwach fully awakens is not far off.

Kyoraku Shunsui was also unable to find the location of the invisible empire in the shadows.

Who knows, those Quincy might have already moved to Rukongai or even the human world.

The only thing we can do right now is to strengthen all available forces so that when the war comes, we can give Yhwach a big surprise.

For example, right now.

Aizen carefully observed the state of the materials inside the container, while Mayuri Kurotsuchi beside him was intently calculating the relevant data.

Kisuke Urahara and Szayelaporro each injected an unknown substance into a glass container.

Each person had a clear division of labor and proceeded with the experiment in an orderly manner.

Extracting the fragments of the Spirit King is a delicate task; the slightest mistake could lead to failure.

For this reason, Aizen specially brought out the Hogyoku.

The moment the blue-purple gem appeared in the laboratory, it unleashed a powerful pressure that swept over everything around it, causing the container to creak and groan.

Under the slightly tense gazes of the group, the Hogyoku emitted several beams of light, which landed on Ginjo Kūgo's body.

There was no grand spectacle, nor any nerve-wracking pain.

Just like picking a potato out of a bowl, the light drew a fragment radiating spiritual light out from Ginjo Kūgo's chest.

Despite losing the fragment, Ginjo Kūgo did not lose his power; only his aura weakened slightly.

"Is this the fragment of the Spirit King within the Fullbringer's body?"

"In terms of size, it seems to be much larger than the ones we collected before."

Kisuke Urahara leaned closer, curiously observing the shape of the fragments.

It's impossible to pinpoint exactly which part of the body it's from, but one thing is certain: it contains the power to change the vast majority of things.

Clearly, years of research experience were completely useless against such wondrous things as the Spirit King Fragment.

To be fair, although they often suffer brutal exploitation from certain individuals after abandoning the light and embracing the dark side, their treatment in research is unparalleled.

Fragments of the Soul King cannot be seen in the Second Division.

However, even if that's the case, we should still resist.

Otherwise, this guy will try every means to exploit me again.

Sure enough, he still had work to do at the Technology Development Bureau, but in the blink of an eye, he was pulled into Hueco Mundo as a conscript.

The second stage of Resurrección was clearly developed by Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Szayelaporro, so what does it have to do with Kisuke Urahara!

The thought of this is chilling.

"Abundant energy."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi leaned closer to observe and analyzed:

"Its vitality is exceptionally strong, and it doesn't seem like an inanimate object at all."

"Perfectly meets the experimental requirements."

"However, it seems to be a little lacking in quantity."

Aizen nodded: "There are more than just Ginjo Kūgo as a Fullbringer in the real world."

Upon hearing this, Mayuri Kurotsuchi grinned, his smile eerie:

"Then there's no problem. We can start the new experiment."

Who's the first one?

Everyone turned their attention to Naraku Sora, who was slacking off to the side. After thinking for a few seconds, he said:

"Let's rank them according to the Espada."

"Let Stark and Lilynette try it first."

Before long, the two arrived at the laboratory. After Mayuri Kurotsuchi explained the process of the second release zami, Lilynette's eyes lit up.

"Increase your strength? Approximately by how much?"

"Can it hit empty air?"

Mayuri Kurotsuchi grinned: "You're being a bit too idealistic. Even if all the Espada complete their Second Release, they still can't defeat Lord Naraku."

"But it will make you more resilient to beatings."

"Done!"

Lilynette excitedly made the decision, without even seeking Stark's consent.

Looking at Lilynette, who was completely absorbed in her fantasy, Stark couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

Since joining the Void Palace, it seems that he has been influenced by bad company, and this child has been completely spoiled.

Even though he wasn't very strong before his Resurrection, he still dared to challenge other Arrancar.

Now that we have the opportunity to strengthen ourselves, shouldn't we go and challenge Naraku?

That kind of thing is not allowed!

With the combined efforts of four top scientists, the experiment of implanting the Spirit King fragment went very smoothly and was completed in less than half an hour.

Therefore, Stark performed his second release at Naraku's urging.

The scale of the attack was enormous, several times larger than Ulquiorra's spiritual pressure.

All I can say is that it truly lives up to its reputation as a Vasto Lorde-class Hollow with its own independent Arrancar status.

The new look after the second stage of Resurrection is also very cool, without losing any of its prestige.

The overall design is predominantly blue, with two black beads embedded in the chest and abdomen, resembling the Hogyoku.

The original flintlock musket has been transformed into a high-tech blaster, capable of obliterating a small mountain with a single shot of Wang Xu Flash.

Its power is exceptionally astonishing.

However, the style of the second-stage Resurrection, led by Lilynette, is completely reversed.

The original blaster was completely transformed into a floating cannon, centered on Stark's will, automatically tracking and attacking enemies.

There's no need to think about any combat details; just focus on shooting everything to death.

As for Lilynette herself, she transforms into a cool and aloof long-haired mature woman with a curvaceous figure covered in bone armor, wielding a cross-shaped longsword.

An intense spiritual pressure brewed over his body, and the surrounding air groaned under its weight.

"Wow, this is exactly what I wanted!"

Although the art style has changed to that of an older sister, the essence remains the same, and her first words immediately kill any interest.

Having obtained her new form, Lilynette excitedly called Ulquiorra to go outside Las Noches to test her power.

The remaining people began preparing for the second implantation of the Spirit King fragment.

This fragment of the Spirit King is remarkably durable.

During his continuous experiments, Aizen also discovered something interesting.

That was the process of the second stage of the Resurrection experiment, which surprisingly matched his idea of ​​the Hogyoku fusion.

This also means that if there are enough fragments of the Spirit King.

This not only minimizes the risks but also significantly reduces the time required.

"Ku, it's time to unleash the power of the Quincy."

After helping Barragan complete the surgery, Aizen found Naraku Sora and told him his thoughts.

"The gap in the Spirit King fragment is larger than I had anticipated."

After listening to Aizen's explanation, Naraku Sora raised an eyebrow.

His good brother never hid the matter of the Hogyoku fusion from him.

As far as I can remember, there aren't that many Fullbringers, and even if we gathered them all back, it probably wouldn't be enough.

It seems we'll have to think of other solutions.

Aizen seemed to realize this as well, and frowned slightly.

If there is anywhere else in the world with a large number of Spirit King fragments, it is only the Spirit King Palace.

When they last ascended to the Spirit King's Palace, Hyosube Ichibei used special methods to remove the Spirit King's right hand from Ukitake Jushiro's body.

Although the intention was to return the item to its rightful owner, but...

As previously speculated, although the Zero Division and the Gotei 13 belong to the same faction, the attitude of Hyosube Ichibei, as their leader, is too strange.

Although Aizen prided himself on having a certain understanding of human nature and being able to guess what others were thinking, it was still too much of a stretch to speculate on the thoughts of a creature that had lived for millions of years.
