Chapter 532
"I'm very happy that you acted for me, but I haven't finished speaking, please."
Grimmjow stood still, his gaze fixed on Aizen's profile. As Aizen spoke, Grimmjow could feel the utter disregard in Aizen's eyes; he hated that look and vowed to kill and devour anyone who looked at him that way.
"What's wrong! I didn't hear your answer, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez!" Aizen said, releasing his spiritual pressure and pressing all of it onto Grimmjow's body, making him incredibly heavy, and then...
Aizen withdrew his spiritual pressure, Grimmjow, panting heavily, still seemed unable to believe it.
"Oh... it seems you understood. But this is for your own good. I don't want the Espada us. He will be the first sacrifice we make to crush Soul Society."
Hueco Mundo is huge, much bigger than in the anime. I wonder if Chen Fan is still a long way from Kisuke Urahara's location.
The power of Shinigami originates from their Zanpakuto. Before the Shinigami and Zanpakuto were separated, the power of the Shinigami decreased significantly after activation, and the same applies to the consumption of spiritual pressure. To quickly replenish it, one needs a newly acquired Zanpakuto, which is vastly different from Chen Fan's original Zanpakuto. This requires constant communication and a sturdier Zanpakuto.
When Chen Fan reached a group of Rock Mountain...
"Whoosh... whoosh...!" Suddenly, several Cero shot towards Chen Fan from above;
"Boom..." All the Cero hit the location where Chen Fan was, creating a huge explosion that carved a massive crater in the ground;
"Did you kill them?"
"I don't know, getting hit by so many Cero should kill me."
"If we kill Lan, we'll also have a chance to enter Las Noches and become Arrancar."
"Oh...! Aizen still has this kind of twisted sense of humor, but I quite like it." Chen Fan's voice sounded from behind him.
"What!" several Adjuchas exclaimed in surprise, but before the Hollows could pass on their information, Chen Fan appeared in front of them from behind. The Adjuchas, still trying to move, slowly began to separate, their bodies splitting in two, falling to the ground, and turning to ash.
Chen Fan had seen Erza use dual swords before, though he himself rarely used them. However, after years of sparring, he had become adept at wielding them. Compared to his original Zanpakuto, they lacked some of the domineering power, but possessed more...
Chen Fan could sense the Zanpakuto's intention to continue devouring these Hollows; they needed nutrients.
Chen Fan gave a helpless wry smile. It seemed that his method of condensing his Zanpakuto was a bit wrong; the Zanpakuto was actually growing in this way.
Chapter 100 Nirro (Second Update)
(Chapter 100 Nirro)
Along the way, numerous Hollows attacked Chen Fan in their quest for Arrancar. Chen Fan realized he had underestimated the allure of Aizen's words to other Hollows; the laws of Hollows were more cruel than those of Shinigami.
The Menos was formed by the aggregation of hundreds of ordinary Hollows. However, calling it an aggregation is not quite accurate. They were attracted to each other and naturally merged into one in order to evolve, becoming a dazed Menos Gillian. In fact, it was all for the purpose of evolution.
Hundreds of Hollows represent hundreds of consciousnesses. These hundreds of consciousnesses constantly compete and devour each other. Only those who can fight against hundreds can achieve victory. Such people are not just one in a hundred; it is very difficult for one such person to appear among tens of thousands of ordinary Hollows.
Becoming a conscious Gillian made things much easier. Because Menos's Gillian was low, they were easier to devour, and the path to evolving into a mid-level Menos was much simpler. However, becoming a mid-level Menos marked the true beginning of danger. Continuing to devour other Gillian Hollows was no longer effective; only devouring other mid-level Menos could save him. At this point, Adjuchas was both hunter and hunted; eating and being eaten were instantaneous. He constantly devoured other mid-level Menos to evolve, striving towards the goal of becoming a true top-level Menos, Vasto Lorde, wanting to become a ruler in Hueco Mundo and no longer be hunted by other Hollows at will.
However, after all the hard work and struggle, all they get is stagnation in their power, no longer able to progress. Becoming a top-tier Menos is simply impossible. Their fate is decided from the moment they are born. The end of their life's struggle is only intermediate Menos. No matter how hard they try, it's useless. This sense of despair will eventually be placed on their still evolving companions, allowing them to devour them and carry their wishes to higher levels.
Aizen's appearance brought them the opportunity to advance their strength further, continue to evolve, and possess their own will, no longer being controlled by their instincts. It was like an oasis in the desert, and everyone would rush towards it.
To fulfill the desires of all beings in Hueco Mundo —this is practically godlike in comparison to the life forms of Hueco Mundo.
"So even death will not deter us!!!" Hundreds of phantoms rushed towards Chen Fan, shouting loudly;
"Then you can all die!" Chen Fan said calmly.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
