Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

Conqueror's Haki (Advanced)

Devil Fruit Abilities:

The Fruit of Surgery (Awakened)

Experience points: 1000001890

After opening his personal data panel, Araki stared at the long string of numbers in his experience section and gradually fell into deep thought. That string of numbers was a full ten digits—in other words, a full billion experience points! Who knows how many years Araki had spent accumulating such a vast amount of experience?!

Without any further ado, Araki went straight to the Spirit Pressure section of his character panel and gently pressed the (+) next to his third-level Spirit Power.

"System give me some points!"

With Araki's stat points, his character panel, which had been showing tens of experience points, instantly dropped to only 1890, and Araki's spiritual pressure successfully reached the second level of spiritual power.

Yes, while each level up in Araki's system grants him immense power, the experience required is also extremely high.

Each upgrade requires ten times the experience of the previous upgrade!

After Araki spent 10 experience points to unlock his spiritual pressure and obtain the innate tenth-level spiritual power, he spent more than 100 million experience points in total before his spiritual pressure reached the third-level spiritual power, which is the level of the spiritual pressure of a standard captain-level Shinigami in later generations.

Then, Araki continued to accumulate experience points by relying on his daily 3,000 points until today, when he finally accumulated 1 billion points, raising his spiritual pressure to level two and unlocking the system's main quest.

According to the standards of the first Gotei 13 of Soul Society, Araki's current spiritual pressure has only just entered the realm of a captain-level Shinigami...

Yes, compared to later generations, where a certain spiritual pressure that barely reached the third level of spiritual power was appointed as a captain by Soul Society and thus used as a unit of measurement for combat power, Kensei Muguruma, who was unwilling to reveal too much about his name, said that the requirements for the captains of the first Gotei 13 were much stricter, and the captains were also much stronger!

After all, this was the original Gotei 13, a unit known for its sheer brutality! Every captain of the original Gotei 13 had fought their way up through countless battles, bathed in blood! Completely different from the sheltered pampered children nurtured in the Shinigami Academy of later generations.

With Lingwei finally reaching the second-tier level, Araki felt a surge of emotion.

"How many years has it been?! Now my spiritual pressure has finally reached level two..."

Araki himself couldn't even remember how many years he had been in this world.

All he remembered was that he was playing a One Piece-themed open-world action game. After playing it for two and a half days straight, he opened his eyes and closed them again... and found himself in this remote, ghostly street!

At first, Araki didn't take it seriously...

After all, it wasn't just him who traveled through time; he also traveled with the data of a powerful character he had created in that One Piece-themed game, which he had spent a lot of money and time to develop!

A super swordsmanship elevated to the level of a max-level swordsman. Powerful physical abilities mastered in all six styles. An incredible regenerative ability to fully recover even from fatal wounds through proper rest. A max-level body that can fight for three days and three nights without showing the slightest fatigue. All three types of Haki at their highest level. Furthermore, the powerful and awakened Op-Op Fruit…

These powers inherent in Araki's cheat codes gave him confidence to survive, and he was confident that he could thrive in this 'unknown' other world.

To Araki, who was still suffering from chuunibyou at the time, this was simply an opportunity given to him by the heavens, allowing him to go to another world and bring "Overlord" back to life! Just watch him use his max-level character and powerful special abilities to wreak havoc in this unknown world!

Even if Araki were to transmigrate to a highly dangerous world like One Piece, he would be confident that as long as he didn't provoke top-tier beings like the Admirals or the Four Emperors, and avoided messing with those damned Celestial Dragons, and didn't get discovered by the cunning Im, who would then send out the unknown "Knights of God" to hunt him down, or even blow him up with the Mother Spark, he could still survive for the rest of his life!

Then, Araki saw a being dressed in a black kimono called "Shinigami" (or "Death God"), with a katana called "Zanpakuto" at its waist, slowly walk past him! Araki was utterly devastated. He knew he was probably beyond dead, now likely just a soul remaining.

The good news is that Araki doesn't seem to need to go to the underworld to chat and laugh with the judges, complain about his past injustices to the King of Hell, drink a bowl of Meng Po soup, and then be reincarnated! The bad news is that he's out of luck and has been taken directly to the Soul Society by someone else.

At that moment, Araki had only one thought in his mind: "Damn it! This isn't One Piece, this is Bleach!"

Yes, Araki didn't understand why he, who was playing an open-world game themed around One Piece in his previous life, ended up in the world of Bleach. But he knew that whether he understood or not was irrelevant!

The truth is, he transmigrated, and even transmigrated into a manga he had read in his previous life, a manga called *Bleach*, also known as *The Grim Reaper*...

Once Araki calmed down and realized that he had transmigrated into the world of Bleach instead of One Piece, his enthusiasm waned considerably...

After all, the world of Bleach, especially the Soul Society where Araki lives, is much more dangerous than the world of One Piece!

Honestly, if Araki really did travel to the world of One Piece, he could easily have lived a peaceful life in the East Blue, the symbol of peace among the four seas! After all, the strongest pirate there is only Krieg...

However, it seems that Araki, who has directly transmigrated to the Soul Society, has no other choice but to become a Shinigami... As for the 'heaven-defying' abilities of the various villains that Araki will have to face after becoming a Shinigami, they are simply too powerful to reason with!

First of all, let's leave aside Yhwach, the final and strongest boss of the Bleach manga, the 'Great Son of the Soul King' and the 'Progenitor of the Quincy', who is unreasonable and 'omniscient and omnipotent' who directly 'changes the future'...

For example, Araki doesn't know how to deal with the group of minor bosses under Yhwach, with their hidden abilities like 'World Harmony', 'Enforcement', 'Penetrating All Things', 'Lethal Dose', and 'Miracle'.

So, Araki, who had just transmigrated and was still in a state of confusion, wandered around Soul Society while contemplating his future. After spending several years making a name for himself in Soul Society, he accidentally entered a sword dojo called Genjijuku and became the head master of Genjijuku...

That was probably the most painful experience Araki had had since coming to this world, after all, his teacher was incredibly strict with his students.

However, the results were indeed impressive! Perhaps because Araki had a foundation in swordsmanship from the One Piece world, he learned swordsmanship from the Bleach world very quickly. In just a few decades, Araki mastered all of his teacher's swordsmanship techniques!

And at what we would now call a 'graduation ceremony,' a left-falling scar was carved into the head of his master, the head instructor of the Yuanzi Academy, whose hairline was receding so badly that he was destined to go bald in the future…

At the same time, he obtained the complete transmission of the 'Genryu' sword technique from his cheap teacher. It was also at the moment Araki obtained the complete transmission that his game panel, which had been fixed by unknown factors, finally updated.

From then on, Araki's game panel changed from the original One Piece world panel to the current character panel that incorporates elements of the Bleach world. What surprised Araki even more was that, besides the abilities of a Shinigami, his body seemed to possess the potential for 'Fullbring'...

In fact, Araki has done some 'in-depth' research on the manga "Bleach".

After the main manga ended, Araki also discussed the plot of the official sequel novel "Can't Fear Your Own World," also known as "Bleach: The Five Nobles Arc," on Bilibili. Araki also watched many Bilibili creators' explanations of the "Bleach" manga and its side stories.

Therefore, Araki also knew that the so-called Fullbring ability was not as simple as what the minor boss Ginjo Kyugo told the protagonist Ichigo during the Fullbring arc of the Bleach anime!

In fact, the power of Fullbring is not derived from the Hollow, but from the power of fragments of the body of the Spirit King who supports the three realms. Therefore, every Fullbring user has enormous potential.

Therefore, in Araki's view, the fact that his body possesses the ability of 'Fullbring' is definitely good news!

At the same time, top-tier Fullbring abilities are exceptionally powerful! To paraphrase a certain person who wishes to remain anonymous and spends all his time wanting to stand in the heavens, the power of some Fullbring techniques can even infringe upon the domain of 'gods'.

Among them, Orihime Inoue, one of the main characters in the manga "Bleach," has the Fullbring technique Shield Shunroku, and Hidekuro Tsukishima has the Fullbring technique Book of the End, which are the best examples of Fullbring abilities.

For Araki, it would be ideal if he could directly awaken a powerful Fullbring technique like the Shield of Shun or the Book of the End, which is strong enough to interfere with certain phenomena. This would give him a stronger ability to survive.

With a surge of excitement, Araki clicked on the information about Fullbring in his system...

Fullbring: Never Fading (Unawakened)

Ability: Binds the life of oneself to that of the person who deeply loves them. As long as one of them lives in the world, the other will not die. Furthermore, both can recover by consuming spiritual pressure, regardless of the form of attack they suffer. Before their spiritual pressure is completely depleted, no attack can take the life of either of them.

After Araki saw the power of his Fullbring, "Never Withering," he had a general idea of ​​the strength of his ability.

"A divine skill! Although this ability has no offensive power, it is absolutely a life-saving divine skill!"

"It's practically a combination of the abilities of Upper Moon Six Gyutaro and Daki from 'Kill the Pillar Slayer' and Hisagi Shuhei's Bankai, Kazeshi no Tobira, from the Gotei 9th Division..."

"Furthermore, according to what this ability says, as long as one of the two parties linked by this ability has not exhausted their spiritual pressure, then the damage suffered by both parties can be restored, and the ability will only disappear if both parties are dead..."

"In other words, the stronger the spiritual pressure of the target I choose to link with, the harder they are to kill, and the more beneficial that is to me."

Araki was overjoyed after checking the effects of his Fullbring ability.

Although it is not as powerful as 'The Book of the End' or 'Shield Six' in terms of practicality and playability.

However, in terms of survival, it is absolutely the most powerful Fullbring ability that Araki knows, without exception!

"Let me see the conditions for awakening the 'Fullbring' ability."

With that thought in mind, Araki clicked on the awakening conditions for his ability.

The conditions for awakening Fullbring abilities are incredibly varied, and Araki only hopes that his own Fullbring awakening method won't be too bizarre.

[Activation conditions: Affection level of 80 or higher for the ability user, and the person the ability user likes.]

Araki was slightly taken aback when he saw the awakening condition for his Fullbring. Most other people's Fullbring awakening condition was a certain item, but Araki's condition was a person?!

Can a human being be a condition for activating Perfect Reality?

So, was Araki, being a pervert, ultimately discovered by Fullbring?

No, to be precise, Araki can deceive others and himself, but he can never deceive his pure heart. But that doesn't matter. In Araki's view, as long as his Fullbring can awaken and be used, that's enough! He, Araki, is a complete 'power-obsessed' guy!

"Furthermore, the ability doesn't indicate that it can only be bound to one person. In other words, if I 'play' well, I might be able to bind with multiple people..."

"Isn't this ability just making me a scumbag?! You bastard! Do you think I'm that kind of person? I'm a decent person!"

Araki stared at his abilities and fell into deep thought. He always felt that his abilities gave him the potential to be a scumbag.

In fact, he is an incredibly pure and upright person, cough cough...

In addition, Araki looked at the notes on his abilities.

[Note: The Never-Fading One will gain ability modifiers based on the spiritual pressure of the first person it is bound to! The higher the spiritual pressure of the first person bound to it, the higher the level of its inherent skill, Spirit Particle Drive, will be!]

As if in response to Araki's thoughts, just as Araki began to consider whether his Fullbring ability, which never fades, could be bound to multiple people, he immediately received a system notification in his mind.

"I see. In other words, the stronger the character I initially bind to, the stronger the power I will gain!"

"If that's the case, if my Fullbring ability 'Never Fading' were bound to this most powerful woman in Soul Society, wouldn't I be invincible?!"

"Understood, I'll go marry Mao Zhilie right now!"

Araki raised an eyebrow.

After Araki understood the power of his Fullbring, he immediately formed a firm idea in his mind.

The first thing I must do after transmigrating is marry Mao Zhilie!

Chapter 4 Araki's Zanpakuto

As for why Araki immediately thought of Retsu Ueno?

Need I say more? Of course, my figure is the best in the world!

Araki's charming ancestor once said, "A woman who can't see her toes when she lowers her head is the most beautiful woman in the world!"

Araki decided to respect his XP system and follow the teachings of his ancestors!

cough cough...

That is of course because Uno Retsu's strength is incredibly powerful and his lifespan is long enough to perfectly meet the conditions of the Araki Contract!

She is one of only two known members of the original Gotei 13 captains who still hold the position of captain a thousand years later!

At the same time, she is also the first Kenpachi of the Gotei 13! It's no exaggeration to say that in terms of combat power, she is the top female Shinigami in the entire Soul Society!

First, since Araki's Fullbring effect is determined by the strength of the first person bound to it. Second, it's directly proportional to the spiritual pressure of the first person bound to it! Furthermore, Araki himself is a power-hungry individual; he has a particular fondness for things that are 'big'—no, for things that are strong!

Considering all the above conditions, in Araki's eyes, the best candidate to bind his Fullbring technique 'Never Fading' to for the first time is only Uno Retsu!

Of course, although that's what Araki thought, reality was still cruel and harsh.

In fact, he still faces quite a few difficulties...

For example, Araki's time travel was too early; the first Gotei 13 hadn't even been fully formed yet. The future Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, who would later dominate the Soul Society for a thousand years, was currently serving as the head instructor at his private swordsmanship school, tirelessly 'teaching and nurturing' his students.

Yes, that's right! In the future, relying on the "oldest" and "strongest" Zanpakuto, Ryujin Jakka, he dominated the Soul Society for a thousand years, becoming known as the strongest Shinigami in a thousand years—Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni! He's the guy who had a horizontal bar scar left on his head by Araki at Araki's "graduation ceremony"! As for the "Gen-ji Academy" founded by Genryusai, it was the predecessor of the later Shinigami Academy…

As for the first Kenpachi, Uno Yachiru, who will one day sweep across all sword styles in Soul Society with her Zanpakuto! She is still on the path of growth and is far from reaching the peak of her power.

Even if Araki and Ms. Uno sign an agreement for eternal life, Araki still won't get the maximum return.
