Bleach: The Strongest Kenpachi Starting from Signing In

"As for the person who manipulated him..."

Aizen frowned, unsure of the answer for a moment.

He guessed it might be the remaining five noble ancestors, but lacked key clues and could not confirm it for the time being.

The only certainty is that a million years ago, the five noble ancestors sacrificed the Spirit King and used his power to establish the Three Realms.

The rest were just the five noble families praising the great achievements of their respective ancestors, which were utterly meaningless.

Finally, Aizen said seriously:

"We need more specific intelligence to analyze what happened back then."

Upon hearing this, Ru Yueming grinned and said:

"Sōyōsuke, you're too attached to appearances."

"Actually, the solution to this problem is very simple."

"Why don't we just go directly to the person involved and ask them what's going on?"

Aizen remained silent, giving Ruyue a deep look.

…………

As the Heavenly Pillar Chariot landed with a resounding crash, two figures emerged from it.

Asuka Akira opened his arms and gave a warm hug to Nimaiya Oetsu, who was waiting there, and then heard the sound of bones cracking coming from the other's body.

"Wang Yue, it's been a long time."

Have any new Zanpakuto been forged recently?

Having finally broken free from someone's forceful restraints, Nimaiya Wangyue stared at Ruyueming with a look of utter disbelief, bared her teeth, and replied irritably:

"Mera and the others will never give it to you. They only have one, a 'Yijijiba'. Do you want it?"

She expected the other person to look disgusted, but to her surprise, Ru Yueming's eyes lit up:

"It's not impossible!"

Just as the two were arguing, Aizen walked over to Hyosube Ichibei and explained in detail what he had encountered in Hell, as well as his speculations.

Upon hearing this, the monk seemed to ponder, stroked his beard, and said earnestly:

"actually……"

"Your guess is probably correct."

Chapter 297 Breaking Through Hell

"In the primordial world of millions of years, there was nothing but the cycle of life and death, neither progress nor regression."

The monk stroked his disheveled beard, speaking somewhat slowly, as if recalling the past.

"Even becoming a void is part of the spiritual particle cycle."

"But for some unknown reason, the Hollow suddenly began to devour humans, and the cycle ended there."

"If things had continued as they were, all the souls would have eventually become a gigantic void, and the world would have fallen into complete stillness."

"Then came the appearance of the Spirit King, who, with his omniscient and omnipotent power, refused to allow this event to occur and destroyed the void."

"This is the history of the end of the primordial period."

As a being from the same era as the Soul King, Hyosube Ichibei describes to Aizen everything that happened a million years ago from the perspective of someone who was directly involved.

There may be some subjective speculation involved, but with Aizen's knowledge, he could easily distinguish it and correct it to a reasonable range.

“These are consistent with what I saw in the Great Spiritual Library, and even the details are not much different.”

The monk glanced at him with some surprise, then smiled:

"I didn't expect that Tsunayoshi wouldn't destroy this part. Is it because of her remaining remorse?"

"Or is it meant to warn future generations, reminding them not to underestimate the interference of unknown forces when pursuing ambitious endeavors?"

Aizen's expression shifted, noticing the subtle change in the monk's tone.

Before he could even ask, Hyosube Ichibei continued:

"However, while the void is constantly being destroyed in this way, the world has not been spared from stagnation."

"The Spirit King will continue to protect us, and eventually we will return to the world of chaos."

"However, there are also those who do not accept the existence of such a world."

"Although they were not as good as Lord Ling, they were still among the top five at the time."

"Those are the ancestors of the five noble families."

Aizen calmly watched him, waiting for what was to come.

“The motivations of the five noble ancestors were different. Tsunayoshi feared that the power of the Spirit King would one day turn against him.”

"The prison palace that guards hell believes that blocking hell is the primary issue to be addressed."

"Rotten wood believes that a new order is necessary in order to make the world more stable."

"Shihouin, on the other hand, pinned his hopes on a much larger cycle, believing that this would prevent the world from descending into chaos."

"As for Shiba, he is different from the other four and has different ideas."

At this point, even Hyoninbe Ichibei's expression became somewhat strange, and he deliberately glanced at Kisaragi Akira, who was bargaining with Nimaiya Oetsu not far away.

"Shiba believes that even the void has a mind, so we should explore purification methods other than annihilation."

"Although their motives are different, their ultimate goal is the same."

"That is to separate the original world at that time and create the world of spirit particles, the world of vessels, and the paradise of sand that the void born from both will eventually reach."

"Shiba originally intended to persuade Lord Rei-o, but Tsunayo took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and sealed Lord Rei-o into the crystal."

"However, I did not witness this process myself; it was Shiba who recounted it. Based on my understanding of him, this person should not be lying."

"In the end, it was with the power of omniscience and omnipotence as a wedge that the five of them created the cornerstone of a completely new world."

"That is, the current Soul Society, the Human World, and Hueco Mundo."

"The original history ends here, and a new chapter belonging to the Three Realms begins here."

"Even so, the group led by Tsunayoshi was still not satisfied. They spent a long time gouging out Lord Spirit King's heart, cutting off his limbs, stripping and chopping his internal organs, and dispersing his power throughout the Three Realms."

"They did this simply to create a 'king' who was to their advantage."

"It is worth mentioning that Shiba opposed continuing to seal the Soul King from beginning to end, and advocated that the crimes committed by himself and others should be made public, and then the punishment should be handed over to the world."

"Furthermore, he is also searching for a way to replace the Spirit King as the wedge of the Three Realms."

"The secret technique passed down in the Shiba family today originates from this method."

Upon hearing this, Aizen suddenly remembered something:

"The final crescent moon piercing the sky, without a moon?"

The monk smiled and nodded.

After hearing this account, Aizen fell into thought.

Assuming all of this is true, it is understandable that Shiba would act as if he were being manipulated.

Compared to the other four, the founder of the Shiba family was practically a born saint, advocating self-sacrifice, having great love in his heart, and treating everything in the world equally.

It's perfectly normal that someone like that wouldn't get along with people like Tsunayo.

However, perhaps because he had been tricked by Akira Kisaragi so many times, Aizen subconsciously felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Just in case, it's necessary to conduct a thorough investigation before taking any action.

"Wang Yue, have you ever thought about using a different material to forge the knife?"

Beside her, Ru Yueming spoke mysteriously to Er Meiwu Wang Yue, her tone full of seductive meaning.

"As far as I know, the phosphorus in hell also possesses the properties of a soul."

"Do you remember when Yhwach got ripped off?"

"I almost forgot, you died back then."

“That’s not important. What’s important is that Sousuke used my and his spiritual pressure as a medium to fuse with Hell Phosphorus and inject it into the soul of the Quincy hybrid.”

"In the end, they really screwed over Yhwach."

"As the God of Swords, you should know what this means, right?"

Nimaiya Wang Yue took a deep look at Ru Yueming, who was arm in arm with him, and he naturally understood the ins and outs of the situation.

To be honest, it is indeed quite tempting.

Forging an unprecedented Zanpakuto using hellish phosphorescence as a material will definitely leave a significant mark on his sword-forging career.

It might even change the格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall structure and order) of the Three Realms.

What should I do if I'm starting to feel a little tempted?

Nimaiya Oetsu had sworn never to speak another word to this person who didn't love swords, but due to the difference in their fighting strength and the person's thick skin.

This oath is as good as not having been made at all.

Never mind, let it be for the sake of the Three Realms.

"When does it begin?"

Wang Yue of Ermei House gritted his teeth.

Ru Yueming grinned:

"There's no time to lose, now is the time."

While Hyosube Ichibei and Aizen were still discussing the details, the two had already left Omotesando and headed towards Oetsu's private Zero Division residence in Nimaiya.

Phoenix Palace.

It's the same as before, still a stunning paradise overflowing with vibrant colors.
