"Old Man Zangetsu, what do I need to do?"

Ichigo himself didn't realize that his tone of voice had become slightly tense, because his awakening of the Saint Letters would involve Tsuna, and he didn't want to fail.

"Relax and leave the rest to me."

Old Man Zangetsu finished speaking, he walked towards Ichigo. Just when Ichigo thought he was about to Old Man Zangetsu, Old Man Zangetsu transformed into a force and merged into Ichigo's body.

Ichigo's inner world.

Old Man Zangetsu appeared in the Kurosaki Residence's hall, a sarcastic and mocking voice rang out.

"Have you made up your mind? Are you really going to give that power to Ichigo?" It was White Ichigo who spoke, sitting on the sofa with his long legs propped up on the coffee table, looking quite pleased with himself.

"This power originally belonged to Ichigo," Old Man Zangetsu said calmly, still unable to get along with White Ichigo.

"Ha, that sounds nice. Sawada Tsunayoshi is right, you've never truly trusted Ichigo," White Ichigo sneered.

Old Man Zangetsu was silent for a while. This was a stain he could never erase. "I did make mistakes in the past, but from this moment on, I will be completely open with Ichigo."

"Tch, I hope you keep your word~"

When it comes to giving power, White Ichigo could mock Old Man Zangetsu for his entire life. He was never stingy in giving Ichigo his power, it's just that that big idiot Ichigo kept refusing it.

This matter was not resolved until Tsuna explained things to Tsuna and White Ichigo regained his Zangetsu Ichigo.

"Let's go, Ichigo is coming."

White Ichigo waved his hand and disappeared from the living room. He was annoyed with Old Man Zangetsu, but he wouldn't bother Ichigo. Today was Ichigo and Old Man Zangetsu's special day, and he wouldn't be superfluous.

"Old Man Zangetsu, what are we doing back here?"

Ichigo had already entered the living room. In his opinion, training Quincy's power should be done in a more spacious outdoor area; the Kurosaki Residence was still too small and inconvenient for such activities.

"Go get my things that I left here." Old Man Zangetsu didn't explain and went straight upstairs.

Following Old Man Zangetsu's footsteps, Ichigo quickly returned to his room, which was exactly the same as his room in the World of the Living, Ichigo knew it all too well.

"Old Man Zangetsu, what exactly are you taking?" Ichigo asked, plopping down on his bed.

Old Man Zangetsu bowed down in front of Ichigo, kneeling on one knee. Ichigo was so startled that he immediately jumped up. He had never intended to use his power as a servant, so naturally he could not accept Old Man Zangetsu's action.

"Old Man Zangetsu, what are you doing? Get up!" Ichigo shouted anxiously.

"I apologize for my past arrogance, and I promise to trust you unconditionally from now on!"

"Why are you saying this? Old Man Zangetsu, get up quickly." Ichigo walked to Old Man Zangetsu's side and pulled his arm.

However, no matter how hard Ichigo tried, Old Man Zangetsu remained unmoved. "Ichigo, apologizing is only the first thing; the rest is the most important."

Then, Old Man Zangetsu reached under Ichigo's bed and Old Man Zangetsu out a black cross-shaped object.

Actually, Ichigo's reaction was a bit excessive. No matter what, Old Man Zangetsu was going to bend down and take the cross. It was a secret he had kept hidden in Ichigo's room, Ichigo's share of Quincy power.

"Old Man Zangetsu?" Ichigo stared blankly at the cross, completely unaware that something was hidden in his room.

Old Man Zangetsu slowly stood up, and the black cross transformed into strips of black cloth that were gradually unveiled, revealing a pale blue light.

It was a greatsword, the blade and hilt together as tall as Old Man Zangetsu, and the tsuba was also ridiculously long, so it only took on the shape of a cross after being covered in black.

"Ichigo, this is your Quincy power. I've kept it sealed in your room all this time, and now it's time to return it to you."

Old Man Zangetsu gently pushed forward, and the blue greatsword composed of Reishi stood between him and Ichigo.

Ichigo stared blankly at the sword. He could feel warmth from it, a warmth he only felt with Masa. The power of the Quincy was a power passed down to him by his Mom, Masaki Kurosaki.

Drawn by the greatsword, Ichigo unconsciously raised his hand. The moment his hand gripped the hilt, blue, tree-like Reishi patterns surged across Ichigo's entire body.

It was Blut; just touching it enhanced Ichigo's Blut by several dimensions. Then, the greatsword transformed into a stream of pure power that flowed into Ichigo's body.

The Quincy techniques that Ishida Ryuuken taught him were crystal clear in Ichigo's mind at this moment. He truly understood the composition of those powers from the root, rather than forcing himself to memorize those moves with his body.

Ichigo is evolving; his entire body is being modified by Quincy power.

Old Man Zangetsu gave Ichigo a deep look before leaving Ichigo's inner world. He wasn't worried that Ichigo's transformation wouldn't go smoothly, as it was Ichigo's power to begin with.

In Soul Society, Old Man Zangetsu once again emerged from Ichigo's body. Muramasa's power remained, and the sword spirit could freely enter and exit the Zanpakuto.

"Ichigo is receiving the power of the Quincy, which will take some time," Old Man Zangetsu said. He didn't need to explain, but he came out for Ichigo's sake.

"Okay, thank you very much, Old Man Zangetsu." Tsuna waved and said.

Old Man Zangetsu glanced at Tsuna before returning to Ichigo's inner world. He wasn't one of those Zanpakuto who enjoyed playing around; he wouldn't leave Ichigo unless absolutely necessary.

More importantly, his appearance is too similar to the real Yhwach; if he were to appear randomly in Soul Society, it would only bring Ichigo even more trouble.

With the disappearance of Old Man Zangetsu, all the Reishi in the underground space converged towards Ichigo. The Reishi connected to each other to form lines, and then the lines coalesced into Ichigo that enveloped Ichigo. Within this Reishi cocoon, Ichigo underwent a metamorphosis.

Knowing that Ichigo would need time, the others did not leave, but simply sat cross-legged in a corner, waiting for Ichigo to appear.

"Tsuna, if I were to return the power of the Antithesis to Mom, wouldn't it have a greater effect?" Ishida Uryū began to daydream after Old Man Zangetsu's words.

"What are you thinking?" Tsuna said irritably. "Putting aside the fact that Aunt Hae definitely won't agree to your plan, even if she did, are you willing to let Aunt Hae go to the battlefield? This is Saint Letters A; when war comes, Aunt Hae can't avoid it."

"But..." An indescribable feeling stuck in Uryū's chest. His mastery of the Antithesis was indeed not fast, let alone the even stronger Vollständig.

"Now that the power of the Antithesis is in your hands, use it well. You'll be the one to hold up the sky for the Ishida Residence, won't you? Just give Uncle Ryūken a good dressing down."

Although the relationship between Ryūken and Uryū has improved a lot because of Tsuna's appearance, Uryū's relationship with him is not much better because of Ryūken's poor way of teaching.

"I understand. By the way, why don't you ask how to cultivate the Quincy Vollständig?" Uryū asked curiously. If there's a shortcut, Tsuna shouldn't let it pass by.

"The Wandenreich perfected the final form of the Vollständig. Old Man Zangetsu knew about it or not, if he really did know, do you think he would have kept it Ichigo, who had obtained the Quincy?"

Tsuna didn't expect to get that much from Old Man Zangetsu. He would be grateful if he could just get a Saint Letters, since the other party wasn't his sword spirit.

As for how Old Man Zangetsu taught Ichigo how to use the Vollständig later on, is there any fear that Ichigo wouldn't pass it on to his friends?

Therefore, Uryū's thoughts are completely unnecessary; just trust Ichigo.

Half a day passed, and the cocoon of Reishi light peeled away layer by layer from top to bottom, revealing Ichigo's head. It seemed that Ichigo had absorbed Quincy's power, and everyone quickly gathered around.

Ichigo's appearance changed. He put on a red and white stand-up collar jacket with a Quincy style, and wore a black and white patterned bodysuit underneath. His lower body was completely in the shape of a Shinigami Uniform, except that he had taken off the upper part of the Shinigami Uniform and tied it around his waist.

The most eye-catching thing is the black bow in Ichigo's hand. The bow is made of twisted and deformed swastikas, like a diamond-shaped swastika. There is also a red Reishi swirling around Ichigo.

This is what Ichigo Quincy. The main transformation is still based on the power of Tensa Zangetsu, making it easier for Ichigo to adapt to the Quincy power.

It has to be said that Ichigo in this form is incredibly handsome, completely different from his Bleach form. He looks much more dashing, and you can see Orihime's face is practically sparkling with excitement.

At Tatsuki's signal, everyone tacitly fell behind by a step. With a gentle push from Tatsuki, Orihime fell into Ichigo's arms.

"Ichigo- Ichigo, I'm sorry..."

Orihime's face was so red she couldn't speak. She was both relieved and embarrassed. She was relieved to be the first Ichigo to touch her like this, but embarrassed to have done it in front of everyone.

Ichigo wasn't stupid. Having spent so many years with Orihime, he understood her thoughts long ago. He gently patted Orihime 'Orihime head and asked, "Is it cool?"

"Handsome, very handsome!" Orihime said firmly, but her words weren't very convincing because she thought all of Ichigo Kurosaki was handsome.

"Hehe, Tsuna, I did it~" Ichigo said smugly, holding Orihime's hand.

"Congratulations! What is your Saint Letters power?" Tsuna asked curiously. It was definitely an A-rank, but as the Ichigo Child of the Plane of this world, it was still very intriguing to know what kind of power Ichigo possessed.

"This? Old Man Zangetsu told me that the Saint Letters A stands for Anihilate, All-Things Exterminator!" Ichigo said, recalling the memory.

Tsuna's face showed an expression of "I knew it," because whether it was the power of Bleach or Quincy, Ichigo's power was always reflected in numbers.
