Masaki Kurosaki Is Dying

"Hiyori!" Shinji Hirako roared, silencing the Roar Hiyori Sarugaki.

A knowing glint flashed in his eyes as he frantically analyzed the ten-minute battle and the conversation that had just taken place.

The final conclusion is quite unbelievable, but most likely—the ability to Tokoyo Misao is the ability to foresee the future.

If the other party possesses such an ability, then they can indeed disregard your Sakanade.

Furthermore, judging from the conversation, he may have envisioned a situation far into the future before saying those things.

At least for now, they don't seem like enemies.

Thinking this, Shinji Hirako withdrew his murderous aura, reverting to his usual slick demeanor, and asked with a smirk:

So, what do you want to change now?

Tokoyo Misao extended a finger and pointed it at Shinji Hirako's face. "The fact that you are too weak..."

"Interesting. So tell me, how can we become stronger?"

This time, none of the members of the Visored were angry; instead, they listened attentively.

Firstly, Tokoyo Misao had already demonstrated his strength, and secondly, they themselves understood this in their hearts.

With the Visoreds' current strength, there is absolutely no way they can defeat Aizen.

In their World of the Living life, they trained constantly and never slacked off.

Even so, over the years, apart from becoming more adept at wearing the Hollowfication Mask, his overall strength has not improved much, which has troubled him for a long time.

"If you want to improve your strength, it's very simple; all you need is courage," Tokoyo Misao said, instantly drawing the attention of the Visored members.

He pointed to the spot on his heart with his finger.

"In my opinion, the Hollow power within you only accounts for Little Ichi; the vast majority is still dominated by Soul Reaper power."

He abruptly turned to look at Hiyori Sarugaki had just opened her mouth. "Are you afraid of falling into Hollow form?"

Hiyori Sarugaki had just opened her mouth, immediately shut it, clenching her small hands into fists and biting her teeth tightly.

"The Hollowfication power that Aizen injected into your bodies was only for some early experimental subjects, and the Hollows used were just ordinary Hollows."

That level of illusory power can certainly be suppressed by the power of Soul Reaper within you.

Even with Kisuke Urahara's help, these Hollow powers were forcibly combined with your Soul Reaper powers.

The difference between the two is equivalent to a drop of ink falling into a basin of water.

It appears as if the water has been completely dyed black, but that's only an appearance.

The Hollowfication of the Soul Reaper cannot be accomplished with just a drop of ink.

For example, in Hiyori, even if she wears Visored, she only gains First-Class Spiritual Pressure.

It was still an upgrade from the Fifth Class to the Fourth Class.

What kind of evolution is this?

Tokoyo Misao shook his head at this point.

He wasn't talking nonsense, ever since he entered the dilapidated factory.

His Eternal Eyes ability allowed him to see through the Reishi within the members of the Visored.

The main body of the Spirit Ribbon is still red, with some white stripes incorporated into it, making it less than one-twentieth of the whole.

He was observing them as they put on their masks.

In fact, wearing the mask did not amplify the power of the Hollow, but rather released the repressed power of the Soul Reaper.

Of course, they also released the suppressed illusory power.

In essence, the Visored simply restores its original power by putting on masks; it doesn't actually enhance its abilities.

"So, how can I become stronger?" Hiyori Sarugaki squeezed out these words from her throat, her voice suppressing various emotions, revealing a hint of pleading and longing.

Tokoyo Misao opened his arms wide and responded with a smile:

"Of course, we need to enhance the power of the Hollows, achieve a balance with the power of the Soul Reaper, and then fuse them together to achieve a breakthrough evolution."

"Of course I know!" Shinji Hirako shouted, opening his mouth wide.

He had already heard about this method of improvement from Kisuke Urahara.

However, this process is extremely dangerous; a slight misstep can lead to ruin.

"Is that so? So that's all you're capable of." Tokoyo Misao shook his head, waved his hand listlessly, and walked towards Rukia Kuchiki.

"Let's go. We can't play with these cowards. They have the power of the Hōgyoku to help them, yet they're still so afraid. They deserve to lose to Aizen."

After saying that, he led Rukia Kuchiki toward the exit.

Until his figure disappeared into the darkness of the exit.

"What is the Hōgyoku?" Rukia Kuchiki asked curiously as the two returned to the abandoned factory.

I never expected to be bombarded with so much information upon arriving in the World of the Living.

Tokoyo Misao didn't hide anything and told everything, "Didn't I just say that?"

The Hollowfication Soul Reaper is a breakthrough of the soul; it is meaningless for them to do so.

To become stronger, they must absorb and enhance the power of Hollows, achieving a balance with the power of the Soul Reaper, but this process is extremely dangerous.

As for the Hōgyoku, you can think of it as a tool specifically designed to shatter a soul and then fuse it back together.

This thing was developed by Kisuke Urahara.

Rukia Kuchiki frowned and asked, "Is the improvement from achieving a soul breakthrough really that significant?"

"It's not small, but it's not that significant for ordinary Soul Reapers." Tokoyo Misao shook his head.

"We haven't even reached the limits of Soul Reaper, so what are we trying to break through?"

The same principle applies to the void; without reaching the limit of the void, no amount of breakthroughs will be effective.

He turned his head and smiled at Rukia Kuchiki, "Strive to your limit first, then seek to break through your soul."

Rukia Kuchiki nodded thoughtfully, glancing at Tokoyo Misao's retreating figure, and muttered to herself:

Misao will probably reach its limit soon.

Will he choose to absorb the power of the Void then?

Chapter 92 Masaki Kurosaki is dying

Rukia temporarily suppressed the information she received in her mind, deciding to analyze it slowly when she had time.

Misao just revealed too much information; it was another Hollowfication Experiment by Soul Reaper, and the seemingly kind Aizen is the mastermind behind it all.

There's something wrong with the Soul Society's wanted posters, and there's also the Hōgyoku, which can help one achieve a breakthrough in their soul.

Her instinct was to avoid unraveling the connections, because of everything Misao had just said, there was one crucial piece of information—

Misao didn't have any particular intention to help either the victims or Aizen, the mastermind behind it all.

If he said those words in Seireitei, it would definitely be considered treason.

Rukia really thinks about it carefully, she might find herself in a dilemma: choosing between trusting in her Misao, the Soul Reaper, and the Kuchiki Clan's responsibilities.

"So, where is the money exchange shop? And if it's a shop, why hide it?"

"You'll understand why we had to hide it when we get there."

Misao looked around and expanded Eternal Eyes's search area, finally finding another place shrouded by the Kidō array.

This time, instead of walking slowly, the two used Shunpo to quickly pass by.

This time, we arrived at a quiet commercial street next to a park.

Misao reached out and tore open the Kidō that shrouded him, stepping inside.

A familiar house came into view.

"Urahara Shop?" Rukia read the sign of the building ahead, instantly associating it with Kisuke Urahara, the traitor of Soul Society.

"This guy's shop definitely needs to be hidden away."

She frowned slightly, somewhat confused as to whose side Misao was on.

"Let's go, things inside are quite interesting."

Misao waved and took the lead, walking over to push open the door.

At a glance, you can see Masaki Kurosaki lying on the tatami mat, covered in sweat.

Isshin Shiba and Kisuke Urahara stood to the side, their faces filled with anxiety and seriousness.

"Captain Shiba?" Rukia's eyes widened as she entered.

She glared at Misao reproachfully; this guy clearly knew where Captain Shiba was, but deliberately didn't tell her.

She quickly stepped forward and bowed slightly to Isshin Shiba, displaying the etiquette of the noble Kuchiki Clan.

"Hello, Captain Shiba, I am Rukia Kuchiki from the Thirteenth Division..."

Rukia noticed that Isshin Shiba's gaze wasn't on her at all; he was still looking at the woman on the ground with a serious expression.

She then turned her head to look over and immediately saw the large, dark hole under Masaki Kurosaki's neck.

What's wrong with this human?

Humans in the World of the Living have the 'Kishi' of a physical body for protection, making it impossible for them to degenerate into nothingness.

Even if the soul leaves the Kishi, there will still be a Chain of Fate link.

Unless the Chain of Fate breaks and the Soul Burial for a long time, the chain will gradually be eaten away and eventually turn into nothingness.

But now this human is emanating an aura of emptiness, and a very strong one at that.

And that pitch-black hole, it looks like it's about to become Hollow Hole.

"Ahaha, sorry, Ms. Kuchiki, I was studying this patient's condition and didn't notice you."

Kisuke Urahara raised his head with a business-like smile, then looked at Tokoyo Misao, instantly sensing the aura of Third-Class Spiritual Pressure emanating from the other party, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"Clan Head Tokoyo has arrived as well."

"What? Misao is here?" Isshin Shiba quickly looked up and scanned his surroundings, but couldn't see anything.

He called out towards the gate, "Misao, Masaki's situation has taken a turn for the worse. You're the resourceful one, come and take a look."

Before Misao, who was standing by the counter, could respond, Rukia in surprise, "Captain Shiba, what is this...?"

She immediately extended her spiritual senses and enveloped Isshin Shiba, her eyes widening in disbelief as she murmured:

"Kishi... How did Captain Shiba become human!?"

While it is true that wandering souls and voids are the manifestations of the souls of humans after death, this process is irreversible.

Despite being Soul Reaper, Isshin Shiba has now acquired Kishi and become completely human, losing even his Soul Reaper powers.

Are you kidding me!?

If this news gets back to Soul Society, it will definitely cause a major upheaval.

This is challenging the rules of the Three Worlds!

Misao then turned to Kisuke Urahara and asked, "Are there any more Gigai?"

"Yes, I am a businessman, of course I don't make limited edition items." Kisuke Urahara said, opening the door behind him, walking into the warehouse, and carrying out a large box.

Open the box, and inside is a doll sitting with its legs drawn up.

This is the Gigai made by Kisuke Urahara.

They look no different from mannequins in shopping malls, except for their human-shaped outlines.

Misao reached out and lifted it up, then merged his body directly into it.

The next moment, the doll's originally pale, plaster-like surface quickly regained its color, its body began to grow taller, and its hair grew out.

In just a few minutes, the doll became exactly like Tokoyo Misao.

Rukia stared in shock, her eyes wide, unblinking.

Her gaze swept from head to chest and down, and a vision of a sleeping dragon suddenly appeared in her mind.
