At this time, in the Eighth Division Captain’s office, Kyoraku Shunsui was looking through the window with a smile on his face at the two people practicing Kidō, his niece, Ise Nanao, was intently taking notes and listening.
Occasionally, Uehara Byakuya would personally demonstrate, allowing Ise Nanao to follow along.
The two of them, one teaching and one learning, were making rapid progress.
At first, Kyoraku Shunsui was a little worried.
Because he was a genius, it didn’t necessarily mean he could teach others.
When teaching, a talent that far exceeded the student’s could even become a hindrance.
Because he couldn’t understand the student’s difficulties.
However, very soon, Kyoraku Shunsui realized that he was being superficial.
Uehara Byakuya’s teaching was not only very solid and reliable, but also pointed out the weaknesses in Ise Nanao’s foundation each time.
Kyoraku Shunsui could see and understand these flaws, but he couldn’t demonstrate them as straightforwardly as Uehara Byakuya.
…
After a session of learning, Ise Nanao and Uehara Byakuya returned to the Division’s inner hall.
Then, the little girl respectfully offered Uehara Byakuya a cup of fragrant tea with both hands: "Teacher Byakuya, your Kidō is truly…"
Even though she had read extensively, Ise Nanao couldn’t find a suitable adjective to describe Uehara Byakuya’s astonishing Kidō abilities at the moment.
Her appearance and expression now were as if she were on a pilgrimage.
Looking at the girl in front of him who admired him immensely and served him with her heart, Uehara Byakuya smiled slightly:
"That’s because your talent is good, so you can understand it. Having a student like you is also my good fortune."
It is truly comforting to have a beautiful girl admire you immensely and serve you wholeheartedly.
Isn’t this much more interesting than plotting and scheming to dominate Soul Society?
No wonder Aizen first "pua’ed" Hinamori Momo, and then found two loli subordinates in Hueco Mundo.
Aizen understands nurturing.
Uehara Byakuya felt that he might be going down the evil path of "questioning Aizen, understanding Aizen, becoming Aizen."
In order to learn Kidō, Ise Nanao went all out, giving shoulder and leg massages, using all means to win Uehara Byakuya's favor.
She thought that Uehara Byakuya was her teacher, and that these were things a disciple should do.
Uehara Byakuya felt that this special mission was truly a huge win.
However, Ise Nanao will definitely learn the real thing.
A willing giver and a willing receiver, very fitting!
After explaining the focus of Ise Nanao’s practice for the next stage, Uehara Byakuya left the Eighth Division’s quarters.
After a flurry of activity, Uehara Byakuya finally returned to the First Division’s quarters.
…
At this moment, in the Fifth Division’s quarters, Aizen was looking straight ahead, lost in thought.
"Thinking? Captain Aizen!" Gin Ichimaru walked in with his usual unchanging smile.
Aizen smiled slightly: "It seems to be lively outside!"
"A First Division Seventh Seat, according to reason, shouldn’t cause such a stir." Gin Ichimaru’s eyes and face did not show any emotion.
"First Division Seventh Seat? Uehara Byakuya?" Aizen’s heart moved, thinking about the words spoken to Nimaiya that day, a strange light flashed in his eyes again.
"Yes, it’s him!" Gin Ichimaru continued to report:
"Captain Aizen, we have set up space-type Kidō barriers in several laboratories in the Rukongai according to your orders.
However, that Ōtsutsuki Naruto did not appear.
It seems this Ōtsutsuki Naruto is very cautious."
Aizen’s lips curled into a slight smile:
"I rather hope that his abilities could be a little stronger, so that he doesn’t have to be so cautious.
That would be very interesting!
But to be safe, we should still deploy the Hueco Mundo laboratory as soon as possible."
"Captain Aizen, are you preparing so quickly?" Gin Ichimaru was slightly surprised.
According to the original plan, he would have to fully advance into Hueco Mundo after he became Captain.
Taking action now is a bit early.
Aizen said warmly:
"A deviation from the original plan is also a transcendence of the original plan.
Rest assured, everything is under our control.
So, act patiently, Gin!"
…
In the evening, Uehara Byakuya took action again.
This time, Uehara Byakuya not only had his disguised glasses on, but also wore an "Afei mask."
After all, with Hollowfication, if you didn’t wear a mask, it felt like a waste.
Soon, he arrived at the secret base.
Sensing that the base, especially the hot springs, were empty, Uehara Byakuya wasn’t really disappointed.
He began to continue his Zenkai training.
A Shinigami’s Zanpakutō is actually the same as the Gishimaru, Zero Division dietary supplements, Blood Pond Hell, and even Hollowfication, all of which are fusions with heterogenous souls.
So-called Shinta are all forged by the blade god, Ni-Maiya Ōetsu, one hammer at a time in the Phoenix Palace.
Each Shinta contains a heterogenous soul that has been compressed layer upon layer.
When a Shinigami pours their spiritual pressure essence into the Shinta for a long time, it will fuse with this heterogenous soul, this is Shikai.
As for Bankai, it is the manifestation of the heterogenous soul.
After years of training, Uehara Byakuya felt that he had already touched the source power of the Dankū.
Kenpachi Zaraki’s permanent Shikai is merely because the weak lack imagination, they think that a Zanpakutō in its ordinary form cannot kill a Captain.
In fact, he used his Shinta form and cut down that younger brother of Kirigakuro.
Then, using only his Shinta form and simple slashes, Kenpachi Zaraki became a powerful Captain.
As for Ichigo Kurosaki’s future Buddha, Zanpakuto, it is not a Zanpakuto in the usual sense.
Zanpakuto’s Shikai is merely the manifestation of fragments of power, and has nothing to do with the Zanpakuto.
So, whether it’s the past, the present, or the future, the Dankū is the only Zanpakuto that can achieve permanent Shikai.
It is a Zanpakuto that transcends the rules of the Shinigami!
