Quincy Inheritor

Human World, Tokyo

Twelve years have passed since the end of that insane World War.

Tokyo has once again developed, with cars speeding beneath skyscrapers.

As a Shinigami, Gaoyu appeared in the Tokyo sky.

He looked down at the city below, then vanished in a flash.

As a Shinigami of the spirit particle world, they cannot interfere with the material world. In fact, in his memory, the Soul Society was very dissatisfied with the outbreak of the previous World War in the material world.

Firstly, a large number of lives were lost in the Human World, causing the Shinigami to work overtime frantically to guide them to the Soul Society during that period.

Secondly, among these deceased individuals were many fallen and insane war criminals. Not long after their deaths, their minds became twisted, turning them into Hollows, which caused considerable casualties among the Shinigami.

But no matter what, at least there are no Hollows in Tokyo now.

The mission he received from the Tsunayashiro Clan was to investigate the whereabouts of 'superpowered individuals' in Tokyo. After investigating, he was not to act rashly, but to record their names and locations, and then report them to the Tsunayashiro Clan.

This mission was top secret and was not to be recorded in any of the Soul Society's official documents. This meant that even Aizen didn't know what he was doing in the Human World.

Of course, that was only on the surface; who knew what he knew in secret.

Aizen, that pervert, had surveillance even in the Human World, so perhaps every move he made was still under his watch.

Gaoyu felt he needed to find a way to gain a disguise ability. Nelliel's size-changing ability was a type of disguise ability, but unfortunately, he had no chance to improve his favorability with her now.

He appeared on top of a building and then activated his spiritual network, sensing the spiritual power of the people in the area.

"Let me think..."

He felt that searching place by place was too inefficient.

Thinking carefully, the Fullbringers he knew should not have been born yet.

Because he remembered that Kugo Ginjo was only twenty-eight years old during the Fullbringer arc, and now it was about forty-four years before the start of the story, and about forty-six years before the Fullbringer arc.

This meant Kugo Ginjo hadn't even been born yet!

And Fullbringers older than Kugo Ginjo...

One was Kiriko Tsukishima, but she shouldn't be fifty yet.

The other... should be Aura Kuchiki's father?

Aura Kuchiki was a Fullbringer who appeared later in the novel. She had the 'Soul King's Lock' within her, and her father was also a Fullbringer.

His father's name was Tenji Agata. Gaoyu felt that he might have been born by now.

Wait, why am I fixated on the individuals themselves?

Can't I just look from a family perspective?

This country's surname is Tsukishima, and there are only so many Tsukishimas. If I directly lock onto these surnames, I can find their future selves.

Of course, Gaoyu would not report such things; he was just thinking about how he would use this information in the future.

Could he go and stake out the birthplaces of future Fullbringers and improve their favorability from childhood?

Excellent, that's what he'll do.

As for the Tsunayashiro Clan's mission?

Who cares?

Gaoyu didn't come to the Human World to work for the Tsunayashiro Clan this time. He only came to the Human World to improve the favorability of some people.

For example...

The Ishida family, a Quincy clan?

Hmm, the Ishida family seems to be in Karakura Town, Tokyo. Kisuke Urahara is also there, so let's go take a look.

Having arrived in the Human World, he naturally knew the map of Tokyo, and as a Shinigami, his speed was far superior to that of ordinary people, so he quickly reached Karakura Town.

In Karakura Town, the Ishida family was considered a 'prominent family,' or rather, a wealthy family, so they were not difficult to find.

The Ishida family estate was vast, with several training grounds in addition to the houses. Gaoyu did not barge in because the relationship between Quincy and Shinigami was poor.

He needed to check the Soul Abilities of these people first. If they had no value, he wouldn't bother improving their favorability.

Especially since the Ishida family itself was a traditional Quincy family that opposed Shinigami. Going there would be like offering a warm welcome to a cold shoulder.

He concealed his Reiatsu and then discovered a young man training in a distant training ground.

His Soul Ability was named 'Quincy Inheritor.'

'Quincy Inheritor: Upon activation, allows for the cultivation of the Quincy power system.'

!

Gaoyu immediately became excited. This was an incredibly powerful ability!

As long as he could obtain this ability, he could become a Shinigami and also a Quincy!

What are the most powerful cultivation systems in the world of Shinigami?

Shinigami? Hollows? Quincy? Fullbring?

They're half-bloods!

I want all four of them!

As Soken Ishida's grandfather and the one who taught him Quincy powers, perhaps that's why he left the impression of teaching Quincy training and thus possessed such Soul Abilities.

Gaoyu's gaze sharpened. He had already made up his mind that he absolutely had to become friends with Soken Ishida.

But how should he do it?

He was a Shinigami, and there was ultimately a huge feud between them and the Quincies.

Damn it, he should have brought a Gigai with him if he had known.

Wait, could he go find Kisuke Urahara and ask for a Gigai?

No sooner said than done, Gaoyu left the Ishida residence and set off to find Kisuke Urahara.

Speaking of which, he wondered if the Visored Legion had awakened at this point in time.

Although Kisuke Urahara had brought the Visored Legion to the Human World, Gaoyu didn't recall when they were successfully treated and brought over.

If the Visored Legion was still around, then he could also see what their Soul Abilities were.

Thinking this, Gaoyu began to wander around Karakura Town.

He didn't find the location of Urahara Shoten; perhaps Kisuke Urahara hadn't opened shop at this time.

But it didn't matter; Karakura Town was only so big, and as long as he searched diligently...

He would eventually find some clues.

The main thing was that Gaoyu possessed the ability to directly discover others' Soul Abilities. No matter how well others hid them, as long as he saw someone possessing Soul Abilities, he could confirm they weren't ordinary people.

Of course...

If he really couldn't find them, then Gaoyu would have no choice but to meet Soken Ishida in his Shinigami form and try his luck.

As expected, about two days later, Gaoyu discovered Kisuke Urahara's whereabouts during one of his strolls.
