Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

Okiga Genshiro is not a very strong Shinigami, but he is indeed a very strong butler.

All the miscellaneous logistical chores of the entire First Division are under the charge of Okiga Genshiro.

Okiga Genshiro has been a servant of Yamamoto since the founding of Seireitei.

Even many worldly affairs were handled by this steward.

In the eyes of some nobles, the importance of pleasing this person even overshadows that of the deputy captain Quebu.

And Chojiro Suzuki is the vice-captain of the first team.

On the one hand, he is responsible for connecting with the captains of each division in important team affairs, and on the other hand, he is in charge of all vice-captains when necessary.

Of course, he never forgot the oath he made when he followed Yamamoto.

——As Yamamoto’s right-hand man, he fills in the gaps that Yamamoto cannot take care of.

"By the way, Brother Genshiro."

Quebu asked:

"Seireitei...this hundred years of rent?"

"Just like before."

Okiga Genshiro was cleaning the table:

"The Kuchiki family still waived the rent."

Sighing, Quebu thought:

Bee, the teacher is not hiding anything from you.

I can't tell you that the Kuchiki family's secret weapon is the land deed, right?

They are super rich.

Soi Fong didn't know that, in theory, Seireitei had to pay rent to the large landlord, the Kuchiki family, every hundred years.

However, the Kuchiki family waived the rent every time and only retained their status as the de facto land owners.

"Today is a day off, Byakuya should be home, right?"

Thinking of this, Soi Fong came to visit the Kuchiki family.

The Kuchiki family's territory is located in the Sixth Division... and its scope is extremely large.

It should be said that the Sixth Division is located at the Kuchiki family.

Enter from the Sixth Division, turn left and right, and you will find a winding path leading to a secluded place.

Broken Bee came to a low-key and luxurious wooden door.

The leading Shinigami announced that Captain Soi Fong of the 11th Division came to visit.

Then a servant from the Kuchiki family opened the door to greet them and lead the way.

There are winding paths, turning right and left.

Soi Feng then came to the reception room.

"The Sixth Division's gate is already outrageous..."

"The Kuchiki family is even more outrageous!"

Drinking the tea in the cup that was even more amazing than the top-grade Gyokuro tea [Hagoromo], Soi-Fong couldn't help but sigh at the wealth of the Kuchiki family.

"If I'm not mistaken, the servant's clothes are made of better material than the captain's haori..."

"Is such that."

An old voice came.

Kuchiki Ginling and Kuchiki Sojun, father and son, stepped into the reception room one after the other.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience of Captain Soi-Feng's visit."

"No, no, it's my fault for interrupting you."

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them sat down across the table.

Just as Kuchiki Sojun was about to pour tea for the three people present, he was stopped by Kuchiki Ginling.

"Ok?"

The silver-haired old man frowned, opened the lid of the teapot, brought it to his nose and sniffed it.

"What a joke! Treating guests with such low-quality tea!"

"Cang Chun, go pick out some good tea from the tea room."

"By the way, give the logistics steward on duty today a good scolding!"

"Yes."

Xiu Mu Cang Chun used his full execution ability and picked up the tea tray and left.

I still use instant step.

Broken Bee: OAO?

"T-That's...cheap tea?"

Her hand froze in mid-air, unable to take back the remaining half cup and finish it.

"I'm so sorry, Captain Shattered Bee."

"Please wait a moment. Cang Chun will brew the tea and bring it to you."

"Don't worry, he's an expert in tea ceremony and will never let you drink such slop again!"

Broken Bee: Swill QAQ? ?!

"Oh, alright……"

Damn rich people!

Xiumu Yinling then said:

"I wonder what brings you here today, Captain Soi-Feng?"

Broken Bee:

"Uh……"

Do you believe me when I say I'm here to chat with your grandson?

But on second thought, if the Kuchiki family really has a secret technique, it would be better to ask Kuchiki Ginryū than to ask Kuchiki Byakuya.

The current head of the family is the white-haired old man in front of you!

Even Soi-Feng is not afraid of the grudges of Rotten Wood and Silver Bell.

We are all captains and are equals, so let’s communicate with each other.

Ask first~

So, she told Xiumu Yinling her speculations about the "secret skills" of the five nobles.

"Um……"

After listening to Soi-Fong's story, Kuchiki Gin-ling pondered for a moment and said sincerely:

"Captain Shattered Bee, your guess is very interesting."

"But I'm sorry, the Kuchiki family is much better than the other four families..."

"Besides being a little wealthy, I don't have any secret techniques related to spiritual pressure."

Chapter 204: Prophecies of the Past

Upon hearing this, Soi-Feng scratched her head and said embarrassedly:

"I see. That's right. I'm prone to wild ideas. Please don't mind—"

Before Soi-Fong could finish, Kuchiki Gin-ling spoke again in a drawn-out voice:

"But——"

Soi Fong:?

"We are slightly better off."

Just as Soi-Fong was about to curse, Kuchiki Gin-ling said leisurely:

"Captain Soi-Feng, I have been serving as captain for over a hundred years."

"The question you asked... is a bit rude, but I can see some clues."

He stared at Soi-Feng with his weathered eyes and asked:

"Are you having trouble manipulating your spiritual pressure?"

"Let me guess, is it Shikai? Bankai?"

"Or is it both?"

Shuifeng secretly smacked his lips, sighing that old ginger is still spiciest.

The reason why she was so concerned about whether the five nobles had any secret skills.

This is because he has witnessed the Bankai of Tosen Kaname, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, Aizen, Shiba Isshin and others.

She urgently needs to change her Bankai to improve her combat power.

Especially since Aizen quietly created the [Hollow Sea Mirage] to interfere with Soul Society's subconscious, this put even more pressure on Soi Fong.

Her Bankai [Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip] is a strategic ultimate move that can only be used once.

This means that in some battles that are of a certain intensity but are normalized, she cannot use Bankai like captains like Komamura and Nirvana.

If it weren't for [Instant Kill] as a supplementary skill package, it would make up for Soi Fong's shortcomings in continuous combat.

Then she would probably still be limited by her abilities and become the second-rate captain in the original novel.

Therefore, it is very important to develop or change Bankai based on the new Shikai.

Especially seeing Yamamoto's original Bankai "Gokadachi".

Although it is only a remnant of the past, a temporary prototype that can only be used once.

But the power of the ashes that could destroy the world fascinated Soi Feng.

Thunder and fire are also extremely destructive elements. Theoretically, what Yamamoto can do, Soi Fong can also do.

Nowadays, Soi-Fong has continued to develop its lightning attribute and has acquired the two characteristics of [Repel Evil] and [Destroy Delusion].

He even imitated Yamamoto's [Zanka no Tachi] and concealed the thunder attribute in the blade.

Combined with the sword art of "Genryusai", it unleashes a powerful slash.

But this is far from enough.

It was only now that Soi Fong realized that compared to the original work, she now lacks the experience in developing Bankai.

Shiraiho's memory allowed her to know the true name of Bankai, "Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip," in advance.

And because his spiritual power level is right and his personality and experience match, he is just one step away from success.

Therefore, Soi-Fong directly used her real name from her memory to summon the Bankai that should have been obtained through constant exploration, thinking, and self-understanding.

This is a process of forcing things to grow.

Admittedly, if she was willing to be the captain of the second division and the commander-in-chief of the criminal army like in the original novel, then such a quick solution would not cause any harm.

But if it is like Soi Fong now, she needs to develop a Bankai with properties and abilities that match her Zanpakutō based on her Shikai.

She must truly go through the experience of developing her own Bankai that she had missed out on by skipping classes.

The only skill that Soi-Fong has researched and developed on her own is the [Instant Kill] that was passed down from the Shihouin family.

She adjusted it based on [Instantaneous] and turned it into her own signature ability [Instantaneous Wind and Thunder Combat Method].

This skill indeed gave Soi Fong combat power equivalent to that of a captain-level Bankai.

A stone from another mountain can be used to polish jade.

Soi Fong plans to find the secret techniques of other great nobles, compare and learn them one by one, and use them to develop Bankai.
