Watching Genji Takamitsu continue deeper into the Koibuku Mountain, the figure that had been closely following him finally stopped.
“That’s a no-man's land… What on earth is that person planning to do there!? I need to report this to Captain Aizen!”
With that thought, the figure turned and left.
“Swish!”
In an instant, only a purple afterimage remained in the air! The figure had already vanished without a trace.
…
Passing through the Koibuku Mountain and the hills behind the Eighty-First District of the Rukongai, Genji Takamitsu reached the wasteland within the three hundred and twentieth district, a place not recorded in the Soul Society.
Within this area, even the ground beneath Genji Takamitsu’s feet, he could clearly see countless dry, cracked traces.
“The heat has already affected this area? It seems the notes left by my ancestors of the Genji family were quite useful!”
The Genji family had been exploring the vast expanse of the Soul Society for a long time. As a result, what was passed down to their descendants was not only the title of a high-ranking noble of the Seireitei, but also countless volumes of notes! These notes recorded many little-known regions of the Soul Society.
This was truly an invaluable treasure!
Although it was incomparable to the collection of the Gotei 13’s head librarian, the Kūkaku family, because of their different focuses, their value was still unmatched by the collection of the Great Soul Library.
Genji Takamitsu formed a hand seal, instantly adding a layer of protective barrier to himself. At the same time, he also created an "air conditioning" device to keep himself cool.
As Genji Takamitsu continued deeper, his movements gradually changed from walking, jumping, and jogging to using Shunpo.
The places where Genji Takamitsu landed became fewer and fewer.
And around him, the ground was now covered in molten lava.
“Gulp!”
“Gulp!”
The magma was constantly emitting unknown gases.
“Whew…”
Genji Takamitsu let out a breath and looked around.
Finally...
“Found it!”
Just as Genji Takamitsu breathed a sigh of relief, his sixth sense of danger triggered him to instantly Shunpo away from his spot.
“Boom!”
A deafening sound echoed, and the spot where Genji Takamitsu had been standing was instantly engulfed by a large Hollow covered in flames.
“Ah… That's incredible! It actually came from beneath the lava! I didn’t expect there to be Hollows in this kind of environment! Moreover, because of the environment, this Hollow seems to have mutated! But judging by its Reiatsu, it's just a mid-level Hollow! A simple, ordinary Adjuchas.”
Standing in the air, Genji Takamitsu looked down at the Adjuchas Hollow gazing up at him from the lava. There was no trace of panic in his expression, only a slight lifting of his right hand.
“Hado #88, "Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō"!”
“Boom!!”
In an instant, a thick beam of light shot out from Genji Takamitsu's palm, completely engulfing the Adjuchas Hollow in the lava.
“Roar!!”
With a roar, the Adjuchas Hollow immersed in the lava, unable to even fire off a Cero at Genji Takamitsu, was permanently submerged into the molten rock!
“Swish!”
In the blink of an eye, Genji Takamitsu had already reached the center of the lava flow, picking the “Symbiotic Flame Spirit Flower.”
Then, with a graceful step, Genji Takamitsu left that area!
Once he stepped back onto the soil covered in green grass, Genji Takamitsu truly felt what it meant to be in paradise!
“Whew…”
Genji Takamitsu took a deep breath and complained, "The air there was awful!"
The reason why this place was called a no-man's land was because its environment was simply unbearable for Shinigami to live in.
The extremely harsh environment was also the reason why the Seireitei had abandoned the area behind the Eighty-First District of the Rukongai.
Although it was a wasteland of a no-man's land, the wealth contained within this area was still not to be underestimated.
Afterwards, Genji Takamitsu took out a specially made bottle and stored the “Symbiotic Flame Spirit Flower”. This was to ensure that the freshly harvested herbs would not lose their medicinal properties, thereby guaranteeing the final effectiveness of the potion.
Next, Genji Takamitsu identified his direction and ran towards the area outside the Eastern Eighty-First District, using the Eighty-First District as a radius.
The reason he did not head towards the Seireitei from the Eighty-First District was because it was actually faster this way for Genji Takamitsu.
He could unleash his full power without restraint. If he was within the area controlled by the Seireitei, his immense Reiatsu would attract the attention of various factions within the Seireitei.
When Genji Takamitsu heard thunder in the distance, it meant that he was approaching the Lightning Zone!
“The thunder in this Lightning Zone is really outrageous! Even though I'm still dozens of miles away, my ears are numb! Most importantly… the Reiatsu density here is simply indescribable! It's a hundred times stronger than the notes recorded! Perhaps it's because of the passage of time?”
Genji Takamitsu rubbed his ears and adjusted his breathing, allowing his body to adapt to the Reiatsu density here.
In the world of Shinigami, Reiatsu density is like oxygen density! In a high-density environment, the Shinigami's body, or rather their soul, needs to adapt!
Of course, some weaker souls would not be able to adapt and would be crushed to death by the high-density Reiatsu!
Since the fog in this area was dense, obstructing his vision, Genji Takamitsu decided to use a Kidō to clear the fog!
Otherwise, if he couldn't see anything, the unknown dangers lurking in the fog might drag Genji Takamitsu down to hell.
“Hado #58, "Tenran"!”
A huge whirlwind erupted around Genji Takamitsu’s body!
As Genji Takamitsu continued to pour in his Reiatsu, the whirlwind grew larger and larger, and his vision cleared.
He saw that the surrounding fog was dispersing, revealing the "Lightning Grass" shrouded in the fog on the plains.
There were also serpent-like miscellaneous Hollows scurrying around.
However, although the fog had dispersed, the time left for Genji Takamitsu was not much, as the fog was gradually gathering again.
Seeing this, Genji Takamitsu dared not delay, immediately activating Shunpo, plucking a few "Lightning Grass" before quickly leaving the area.
According to the records of his ancestors of the Genji family, as the fog gathered, those serpent-like miscellaneous Hollows would take advantage of the opportunity to attack the person who had dispersed the fog. They would only end their attack when their lives were exhausted.
This was also the reason why Genji Takamitsu was acting so quickly.
After storing the last ingredient in a bottle, Genji Takamitsu returned to the Fourth Division within the Seireitei.
This was the medicine processing room of the Fourth Division's Medical Division.
Genji Takamitsu was going to make the potion that was custom-ordered by Hikiya Kiryo here!
This time, Genji Takamitsu didn’t plan to make the potion in the form of a liquid in a bottle! Instead, he would make tablet-shaped medicine according to Hikiya Kiryo’s needs, as it would be easier for her to carry around.
This way, Hikiya Kiryo could rely on eating to maintain her energy and accumulate Reiatsu on a daily basis. During battle, she could take the tablets, which had the same effect, to instantly boost her combat strength!
However, before starting, Genji Takamitsu needed to determine the proportions to achieve the best effect!
…
“Clang clang clang! Clang clang clang!”
The clashing of Zanpakutō in the empty underground space was particularly ear-piercing!
“Yo! Kisuke! Your strength has increased after mastering your Bankai! Or are you hiding your strength just like that bastard Genji?!”
Yoruichi Shihouin stood on a protruding rock and wiped the sweat from her chin.
“Whew… Whew…”
Kisuke Urahara also gasped for breath!
“Don’t ever compare me to that freak!”
