New Ability: Soul Splitting

Wang Xun's gaze sharpened slightly.

Kenpachi Zaraki.

The name instantly popped into his mind.

The future captain of the 11th Division, a numerical monster, and the first person to self-seal.

The names of the two people behind him are obvious.

Bald, with the Ikkaku Madarame, his special skill is a one-time Bankai.

The long-haired man beside him is naturally Yumichika Ayasegawa, the bald man's best buddy.

His Zanpakuto can absorb other people's Reiatsu, and the Reiryoku it produces can replenish his own and his teammates' spiritual energy; you could say he's something special.

During the bloody battle, the two teamed up, providing both sustain and damage output, successfully surviving the chaotic battle and remaining until the end.

However, as of now, they haven't joined the Gotei 13; they are merely wanderers roaming the outskirts of Rukongai.

But their strength is beyond doubt.

Wang Xun's gaze swept over the traces of battle scattered everywhere, and then looked at the fragments he had just absorbed.

The virtual group here was most likely wiped out by these few people.

Wang Xun withdrew his gaze, his face expressionless.

He simply stood there quietly, like an ordinary member of the Fourth Division, looking at the stranger in front of him.

But he didn't notice that Aizen's hand had already quietly rested on his Zanpakuto.

Not far away, Kenpachi Zaraki's gaze swept over the group in front of him.

Then, his self-light fell on Kenpachi Kiganjō.

The man carrying Zanpakuto, standing arrogantly in the center of the crowd.

Kenpachi Zaraki's eyes narrowed slightly.

"You..."

"Is he the strongest among these people?"

Kenpachi Kiganjō was taken aback.

Immediately, his face darkened, and an inexplicable anger surged to his head.

"What did you say?!"

Since he became captain, very few people have spoken to him in such a provocative manner.

Moreover, the person in front of him looked like just a thug from Rukongai.

Kiganjō stepped forward, his Reiatsu erupting instantly.

The violent Reiatsu spread outwards as if it were a tangible force, causing the surrounding team members to catch their breath.

"I'm Kenpachi Kiganjō, the captain of the 11th Division! Who do you think you are, daring to talk to me like that?"

"Kiganjō... Kenpachi?"

Kenpachi Zaraki clicked his tongue after hearing this.

Then, a slight smile appeared on his lips.

A certain light flickered in those eyes.

That's the excitement of encountering prey.

The next moment, Zaraki took a step forward.

This one step instantly froze the atmosphere within the entire team.

Everyone felt it.

That overwhelming, undisguised fighting spirit.

A violent Reiatsu, accompanied by a pure and naked wild aura, exploded with a deafening roar, no less powerful than that of Kiganjō.

Like a sleeping beast that has suddenly awakened.

Wang Xun's pupils contracted slightly.

He saw many Reiryoku Fragment emanating from Zaraki.

Is a fight about to break out?

Zaraki and Kiganjō?

If a fight really breaks out...

His gaze swept across the surroundings.

The members of the 11th Division had already gripped their swords tightly, the members of the Fifth Division were retreating, and the members of the Fourth Division were being protected in the middle.

And Kiganjō...

Wang Xun looked at him, then secretly shook his head.

Kiganjō's Reiatsu was indeed very strong, so strong that it made the ordinary team members feel suffocated.

But in Wang Xun's eyes, his posture and the way he held the knife were all flaws.

If they really fought, he would be no match for Zaraki.

But just as he was thinking, a prompt suddenly flashed before Wang Xun's eyes.

[New soul state detected...]

[System parsing in progress... Parsing complete]

Wang Xun saw this.

[Gained new skill: Soul Splitting (Beginner 1%)]

[Soul Splitting: This allows a part of the soul to be divided into independent entities, with the host having complete control over them.]

The moment Wang Xun saw the system notification, a huge question mark appeared above his head.

He stood there, stunned, momentarily forgetting the tense situation before him.

What is this, Soul Splitting?

Can the soul be divided into independent entities?

He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the people in front of him.

Kenpachi Zaraki, carrying a serrated sword, exudes a beast-like aura.

On his shoulder, the pink-haired little girl was swinging her legs, her big, round eyes curiously observing everyone.

Memories of her instantly flooded Wang Xun's mind.

Yachiru Kusajishi's true form is actually Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakuto.

To be precise, during the period when Kenpachi Zaraki sealed himself away, a part of his soul transformed into an independent entity.

The Zanpakuto truly come to life.

She can even possess her own Zanpakuto and achieve Shikai.

All I can say is, amazing.

Then, Wang Xun's lips twitched slightly.

He now understood the new capabilities that the system had analyzed.

The "new soul state detected by the system" is this special coexistence form, the embodiment of the Zanpakuto, a split soul.

Kenpachi Zaraki and Yachiru Kusajishi are typical examples.

Similarly, he recalled an extreme example.

Koyatai Starrk.

Espada future No. 1 Vasto Lorde, whose Reiatsu is strong enough to Arrancar.

He also Soul Splitting, allowing another part to become a separate individual named Lilynette, who followed him.

Wang Xun a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart.

The Soul Splitting meant that he would later have an assistant who could act independently.

Or perhaps a clone that can share the danger with him.

If clones can also inherit the system's abilities, then the potential of this skill can be described as unfathomable.

If used properly, it could become one of his biggest trump cards.

Afterwards, Wang Xun composed himself and turned his gaze back to Kenpachi Zaraki and Yachiru Kusajishi.

The two men remained standing in the same spot, one carrying a knife on his shoulder, the other perched on his back.

At this time, Yachiru looked to be only five or six years old, very young.

She seemed to sense something and suddenly turned her head to look at Wang Xun.

A hint of curiosity flashed in those big, round eyes.

Then, she grinned.

That smile was innocent and naive, yet it also revealed an inexplicable cunning.

When Wang Xun saw that Yachiru was looking over, he nodded to her.

Then, he sensed that Yachiru seemed to have developed some interest in him and waved at him.

However, Wang Xun did not respond further, as the current situation was his primary concern.

He glanced sideways at Kenpachi Zaraki.

The overwhelming, undisguised fighting spirit that swept over them instantly froze the atmosphere in the entire team.

Then, Wang Xun saw the scene before him slightly tear apart.

This feeling was familiar to him; it was...

Kyōka Suigetsu.

The next moment, Kenpachi Zaraki roared and turned around, wildly slashing at the air beside him, the Roar excitedly as he gradually walked away.

In front of him, a semi-transparent phantom image of Kenpachi Zaraki appeared.

Suddenly, the illusionary Zaraki looked into the distance, then led the equally illusory Ikkaku Madarame and Ayasegawa away into the distance.

The 11th Division members in front of them were stunned, staring blankly in the direction the illusion had gone, not knowing what had happened.

Wang Xun stood still, watching everything unfold, then glanced sideways slightly.

He saw that Aizen's Zanpakuto had been drawn from its sheath at some point.

At this moment, countless thoughts were churning in Wang Xun's mind.

Why would Aizen suddenly make a move?

Was he trying to... avoid a conflict between Zaraki and Kiganjō?

At that moment, Aizen also noticed his gaze, turned his head slightly, and looked deep into his eyes.

"What's wrong, Wang Xun?"
