The Hyperdimensional Express Train takes you across the universe

"If it's the latter, we absolutely must get this thing back to Soul Society."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri walked forward and stroked the trunk of the giant tree.

Ever since learning about the many different development systems of the Hyperdimensional Communication Company, the people of Soul Society have had many objections to which direction it should develop.

Some captains think that Soul Society should develop in the direction of magic. After all, the ghost arts and magic in Soul Society are very similar.

The chanting of magic and the chanting of ghost arts, the effects of magic and the effects of ghost arts. If the members of the Gotei 13 changed into magicians' attire and performed ghost arts, I believe no one would doubt that they are not on the magic side.

Just as there are those who support the magic side, there are naturally those who support the fantasy side.

Every member of the Gotei 13 must master four basic skills: slashing, punching, walking, and ghost. Ghost only occupies one of them, while the other three have better development in the fantasy side.

Especially compared with slashing, punching and walking, the ghost way requires higher talent.

Of course, in addition to the fantasy and magic sides, there are other voices in the Gotei 13, such as Kurotsuchi Mayuri, who prefers to go the scientific side.

It’s just a pity that compared to the magic and fantasy sides, the other directions are just a niche. In the big force of the Gotei 13, the niche is destined to have little voice.

Although the people in Soul Society have not yet decided which direction to go, judging from the perspectives of smart people like Kyoraku Shunsui and Kurotsuchi Mayuri, there is actually a 90% chance that they will go towards the fantasy side.

After all, the most important thing in Soul Society is Zanpakuto, a system that everyone has devoted themselves to studying. It is a power that no one can give up. In order to adapt to Zanpakuto, these guys who have lived for at least hundreds of years have also practiced swordsmanship from beginning to end.

Hundreds of years of sunk costs are not something that anyone can just casually discard.

With this understanding, visionary people like Kyoraku Shunsui have conducted more in-depth research on the fantasy side.

For example, the most basic cultivation directions in fantasy are generally essence, energy, and spirit, as well as equally important tools, pills, formations, talismans, and other auxiliary paths of cultivation or combat.

And if we look at it from the fantasy perspective, everyone in Soul Society is on the path of cultivating their souls, and their Zanpakutō are soul weapons that belong to each of them.

With this understanding, what they need to do next is very simple. Following the path of the soul, they will gather all the conditions that can help them become stronger.

What are the techniques to strengthen the soul, the materials to strengthen the Zanpakuto, the pills to enhance the soul, and so on.

Among them, elixirs have the best effect on everyone and the most significant improvement.

Compared to the martial arts that require a long period of practice to be effective, and compared to the forging that requires carefulness to prevent any adverse changes in the Zanpakutō, taking pills to achieve improvement is much simpler.

For example, Captain Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, he got some elixirs that enhance affinity with fire-type abilities, which greatly increased his combat effectiveness.

For example, Yoruichi Shihouin, who is known for her speed, took some pills to increase her speed. She thought that her speed would be difficult to break through, but her speed reached a new height.

For example, for someone with strange abilities like Kyoraku Shunsui, if he doesn't know how to improve the power of his Zanpakuto, then he can just improve the basics.

No matter who you are, you can find a pill that suits you. It’s just that high-level pills are more expensive, otherwise the entire Soul Society would be addicted to pills now.

Even a man with such a strong will as the captain couldn't help but feel a little dazed after taking some pills and easily breaking through his original limit.

Years of hard training are no match for a single pill. No wonder the pill system has become an indispensable training aid in the fantasy world, just like necessities such as weapons and techniques.

After experiencing the beauty of elixirs, looking at the high prices of elixirs in the company's mall, and the huge profits made by the sects from the fantasy side selling elixirs, the people in Soul Society naturally wanted to learn from them.

Not to mention selling it, just using it yourself can save a lot of dimensional coins.

Moreover, this kind of auxiliary cultivation material is definitely more suitable for one's own use if it is produced after in-house research.

Chapter 924: Sect Puppet: What kind of battle maniac is this?

While Kyoraku Shunsui and Kurotsuchi Mayuri were studying how to plunder the Dan Pavilion, on the other side, Kenpachi Zaraki, who was staying outside the Dan Pavilion, was a little bored, so he looked at a tall tree not far away and thought about climbing up to observe the situation nearby.

Climbing up the giant tree, the surrounding scenery came into view. At first, Kenpachi Zaraki had no interest in everything around him. After all, there were no combat facilities here at first glance.

But when his eyes passed over an area that looked like a square, his eyes suddenly became excited.

Because in the center of the square, a figure was sitting there quietly.

At the edge of the square, there are many weapon racks filled with various weapons.

With just one glance, Kenpachi Zaraki was sure that this was a place where he could fight.

“I just happened to be bored”

Ignoring Kyoraku Shunsui and the other man who had not yet come out of Dan Pavilion, Kenpachi Zaraki rushed to the edge of the square with great interest.

As he got closer, Kenpachi Zaraki could clearly see that the figure sitting in the center of the square was actually a puppet made of a metal-like substance.

It seemed as if no one had fought with it for a long time, so the puppet was covered with moss. This shabby appearance made Kenpachi Zaraki doubt whether this thing could still fight.

Drawing his Zanpakuto from his waist, Kenpachi Zaraki fearlessly stepped into the square. As soon as he stepped onto the square, red light lit up in the eyes of the moss-covered puppet.

"As long as we can still fight"

Kenpachi Zaraki grinned and was about to rush forward and start hacking.

However, the next second, the puppet actually spoke.

"You...are not...a disciple of the sect..."

Intermittent words reached Kenpachi Zaraki's ears. Fortunately, he had a translation tool developed by the company that could automatically recognize the written language of the heavens and all worlds, otherwise he really wouldn't know what this thing was saying.

"That's right. So, do you want to get rid of me, the invader?" Kenpachi Zaraki said provocatively.

"...No need... The sect is destroyed... Only when someone can enter... and obtain the sect's inheritance... can the sect... be passed down."

"If you... could obtain... the sect's inheritance... could you inherit... the sect's name?"

The puppet spoke intermittently.

Obviously, the puppet is not opposed to "intruders" like Kenpachi Zaraki.

If Kyoraku Shunsui and Kurotsuchi Mayuri were here, they would understand the reason why the puppet made such a choice. For those big forces, whether in the form of a family or a sect, the unbroken inheritance is the top priority.

This is especially important in the fantasy field.

It’s a pity that the person standing in front of the puppet is Kenpachi Zaraki.

"Stop talking so much about inheritance and sects. I'm not interested in that. I'm only interested in one thing."

As he spoke, Kenpachi Zaraki raised the Zanpakuto in his hand.

"Come and kill!"

The fighting spirit burst out from Kenpachi Zaraki's body, coupled with his bloodthirsty and excited appearance, if you say that Kenpachi Zaraki is a villain at this time, probably no one would object.

"..."

The puppet fell silent. It stared deeply at Kenpachi Zaraki, as if trying to determine whether the guy in front of it was joking.

An opportunity to inherit the sect was placed in front of the other party, but he was not interested and didn't want to think about anything else. He just wanted to fight with me, a puppet.

Will there be any good outcome from the fight between the two of them?

The puppet doesn't understand, the puppet is silent.

After a long time, just when Kenpachi Zaraki was getting impatient, the puppet slowly stood up from the ground.

"As you wish... after the battle... if possible... please... let the sect's legacy continue."

After the request was made, the red light in the puppet's eyes disappeared and white light appeared.

"I am a sparring puppet... You can practice with me... hone your body movements... train your martial arts... master your weapons... and fill in your gaps."

"Please tell me what you want to train in..."

The puppet looked at Kenpachi Zaraki and said.

"Tsk, what kind of body movement skills... Just the last one, let's check and fill in the gaps."

Kenpachi Zaraki said.

He was curious about what his shortcomings were while checking for them.

I think if this puppet can find its own weaknesses, then this battle would be very interesting, right?

"understand!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the puppet took a stance, as if it would launch an attack in the next second.

When Kenpachi Zaraki saw that the long-awaited main course had finally been served, he could barely hide the smile on his face.

However, the next moment, Kenpachi Zaraki's pupils shrank, and he saw the puppet raised its foot and took a step. Almost in the blink of an eye, the opponent came in front of Kenpachi Zaraki.

Surprised at the opponent's speed, Kenpachi Zaraki swung his sword, but as the blade was falling, the puppet's body swayed and came to Kenpachi Zaraki's side.

"Thunder Fist!"

Like thunder, the puppet's fist hit Kenpachi Zaraki's abdomen. Kenpachi Zaraki took a few steps back after being hit. After stabilizing his body, he immediately looked at the puppet with surprise.

Such speed was really beyond Kenpachi Zaraki's expectations. He didn't expect that this puppet spoke haltingly but moved so quickly.

However, it was precisely because of this unexpectedness that Kenpachi Zaraki felt even more delighted.

What sect, what inheritance, what resources? At this moment, everything before him had nothing to do with him. There was only one thought left in his mind, and that was to fight.

Chapter 925: Speechless Kenpachi Zaraki, promoting the puppet of the sect's inheritance

With his mind completely immersed in the battle, Kenpachi Zaraki only had his opponent in his eyes. This was a state that Kenpachi Zaraki gradually realized through the constant battles in the Super Dimension Communication Company.

Put aside all distractions and just focus on what you like.

Of course, being able to master this state of deep immersion in combat is also due to the fact that the Hyper Dimension Communication Company can provide Kenpachi Zaraki with suitable opponents. If it were the days before Kenpachi Zaraki boarded the hyper-dimensional train and couldn't find a few good opponents all day, he would never have been able to learn this state.

Stared at by Kenpachi Zaraki who had entered the state, the light in the puppet's eyes flickered slightly.

As a sparring puppet, it knew that Kenpachi Zaraki had already entered the state.

Being able to enter the state so quickly is rare, even in the sects in the puppet's memory.

No one spoke, and time seemed to stand still.

But the next second.

Kenpachi Zaraki, holding his Zanpakuto tightly in his hand, flashed and the Zanpakuto, shining with cold light, cut through the air and fell straight onto the puppet.

"Come on, let me see how strong you are!"

Kenpachi Zaraki thought excitedly.

At the same moment that Kenpachi Zaraki launched his attack, the puppet also moved. A metallic luster appeared on the surface of the puppet's body, and the moss originally covering its body instantly turned into ashes.

Amidst the stirring dust, the puppet raised its fist, and a khaki energy covered it, blocking Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakutō as it was about to fall.

"Ding"

The sound of metal clashing was heard, and Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakuto was blocked by the puppet's fist and could not move forward.

Before Kenpachi Zaraki could react, the puppet's other fist, emitting fiery red energy, flew straight towards Kenpachi Zaraki.

Seeing that he was about to be hit by the fist, Kenpachi Zaraki grinned excitedly, his head glowed with metallic color, and then he collided squarely with the puppet's fist.

The fists and heads collided, but the bloodthirsty smile on Kenpachi Zaraki's face remained unchanged. The light in the puppet's eyes flashed, as if it was surprised by Kenpachi Zaraki's fighting style, and the next moment, its movements changed again.

The khaki and fiery red light disappeared, and the aqua blue and turquoise light enveloped the fists.

Then, an attack like a raging storm came towards Kenpachi Zaraki. The attack was continuous, and when Kenpachi Zaraki fought back, the puppet's fist would dissolve the originally powerful attack like a wave.

Seeing that Kenpachi Zaraki was temporarily entangled by him, the puppet attacked and spoke:

"This move... is a classic attack and defense technique from our sect. It's called... the Five Elements Celestial Fist. It takes the form of the five elements and combines their characteristics to create it."

"Gold shape... sharp and razor-sharp, Wood shape... endless life, Water shape... all-embracing, Fire shape... fierce and violent, Earth shape... tough and heavy."

"Learning this... Five Elements Celestial Fist will give you the ability to deal with a variety of enemies. It can be considered a very comprehensive set of martial arts. And if you learn it deeply, you can even... try to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth."

"However, even such an outstanding martial art, among all the martial arts of the sect, has only reached... a medium level."

"Now, as long as you are willing to inherit... everything of the sect, so that the sect's heritage will not be cut off, you can also choose better martial arts than this..."

The puppet's words seemed to be bewitching and kept ringing out. In fact, it was indeed bewitching. The sect had been destroyed for who knows how long. During such a long time, only Kenpachi Zaraki came to it.

As a puppet that regards the sect as everything since its creation, it will never give up the opportunity to pass on the sect.

Later, in the battle with Kenpachi Zaraki, the puppet demonstrated various martial arts of the sect one after another, and provided explanations. After the explanations, the originally intermittent sounds became coherent, leaving Kenpachi Zaraki, the battle fanatic, speechless.

In other words, Kenpachi Zaraki is obsessed with fighting and doesn't like to care about things other than fighting. If people like Kurosaki Ichigo who live in the real world saw this scene, they would definitely complain directly. Isn't the puppet's current appearance just like those salesmen standing by to solicit customers during events such as "bargain sales" held by supermarkets?

It can only be said that due to the reality, the logic in the puppet's consciousness that it can sacrifice everything for the sect forced it to "sell" its own sect inheritance to Kenpachi Zaraki in this posture.

Unfortunately, the puppet is destined to be a waste of time.
