Chapter 257: The Trust of Yhwach
Yhwach had a nightmare.
In the dream, he was cruel and cold-blooded, strictly abiding by the prophecy recorded in "Ode to the Holy Emperor", regaining his heartbeat in nine hundred years, regaining his consciousness in ninety years, regaining his strength in nine years, and finally finally... Nine days to capture the world.
The whole process went smoothly, but problems arose at the last and most important step.
After regaining his power, he led his troops to invade Hueco Mundo, used Hueco Mundo as a springboard to attack Soul Society, and established a new invisible empire and the real world city.
After killing his old enemy Yamamoto Shigekuni, he led the Divine Guards to attack the Soul King Palace, and defeated the Ichibei of the Military Master who had plotted against him with his omniscient and omnipotent power.
Immediately afterwards, the Spirit King was also killed by him and took his power as his own.
Since then, he has become the most powerful man in the world, and the road ahead is unstoppable.
However, just when he thought everything was going smoothly, an accident happened. An arrow made by some unknown power penetrated his heart, sealing his omniscience and omnipotence.
Finally, an indistinct figure appeared in the black torrent and struck out with an indomitable slash.
that's all--
The Quincy King, who lost his invincible power, completely fell on the road to victory.
Yhwach, who was awakened by the nightmare, opened his eyes in the deep darkness, and blood-red blood flashed in his pupils.
Although he could no longer remember most of the details in the dream, his ending was almost engraved in his mind.
Without any hesitation, Yhwach immediately summoned his most trusted person, who was also the person in charge of the current invisible empire.
Huguelen Hasward.
As the black shadows parted to both sides like living creatures, the elegant man with golden hair walked into the deep darkness, walked slowly to the throne, and knelt down on one knee respectfully:
"I have met His Majesty."
Hasward was not too surprised by Yhwach's sudden awakening.
"Hasward, how is the empire doing?"
Even when facing his most trusted subordinate, Yhwach still did not reveal the nightmare just now, or in other words, he was still skeptical about the dream.
"Reporting to your majesty, the empire is thriving."
Hasward did not hide anything, and immediately stated in detail the changes in the Invisible Empire in recent years, and highlighted Senju Hashirama's contribution.
It can be said that the development and prosperity of the empire's forces are inseparable from this newly promoted deputy leader of the Star Cross Knights for a few years.
In words, most of them are praised.
Of course, with good news there comes bad news.
Gerald Valkyrie, the heart of the Soul King of the God's Forgiveness Guards, has not returned yet. Hasward suspects that he was killed by the God of Death or encountered an unknown powerful enemy.
Then something happened to the prison where Gremy Tomu was imprisoned. The shadow field covering the prison was forcibly destroyed, and there was no clue about Gremy's whereabouts.
But compared to the changes Senju Hashirama brought to the empire, these bad news seemed insignificant.
At least, that's what Hasward thought in his mind.
In the darkness, Yhwach remained silent.
It looks like he is thinking, but he is actually thinking about the dream he just had and constantly searching for relevant information in his mind.
Who is Senju Hashirama?
Is there such a number one figure in the future in dreams?
After searching to no avail, Yhwach breathed a sigh of relief, and his solemn expression returned to calm.
Nightmares are still dreams after all.
After a moment of silence, a deep voice sounded again in the darkness:
"Gerald Valkyrie and Gremy Thomyu are dead, and their power has returned to me."
"After this incident, my heartbeat has completely recovered."
"Consciousness is also gradually recovering."
"It won't be long before the time of silence in the shadows will end, and the day when the new world will come is no longer far away."
Hasward nodded slightly and said respectfully:
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for retrieving the heartbeat."
He was not too surprised by the deaths of Gerald and Gremy.
Perhaps because of the rapid growth of the invisible empire, the existence of these prickly-headed knights really does not affect the overall situation.
Anyway, with Yhwach here, several more powerful Star Cross Knights can be created by then.
What's more, there is Senju Hashirama here.
He alone can stand up to an entire Divine Guard.
If Yhwach hadn't fully awakened yet, Hasward would have even wanted to give Yamamoto Shigekuni a try.
I have General Hashirama who can kill Yamamoto!
In the darkness, Yhwach continued:
"As you said, Senju Hashirama is indeed a talented person in the empire."
"When I wake up next time, bring him to see me..."
As the words fell, the heavy atmosphere in the shadow gradually calmed down, and finally disappeared into nothingness.
Yhwach is unable to notice what is happening in the outside world while he is sleeping. The main way he obtains information is from Hasward, the only person who can see him.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that Yhwach can sleep peacefully and regain his heartbeat, consciousness and strength...
…………
Looking at the brain contained in the semicircular container, Ru Yueming thought of the brain in the vat.
I have to say that Gremy is still very strong.
Being able to suppress multiple Arrancars in all directions with hard power shows off his strength.
Of course, strength is limited.
After all, his imagination is limited, and without his amazing wisdom, he can only end up defeated.
After a passionate battle with him, Gremi exhausted all his imagination, and the body he imagined collapsed completely, leaving only this brain.
In Aizen's words, this brain is the second most interesting life form he has ever seen.
Even though it is completely unconscious, it still has a considerable degree of activity and is very valuable for research.
He can set up hundreds of research projects based on its characteristics.
"Which is the most interesting life form?"
Kisaragi Akira accurately captured the key words and looked to the side with sharp eyes.
Aizen glanced at him lightly, with no intention of answering this question at all.
It is obvious that someone has no self-knowledge at all.
Looking at the history of Soul Society for millions of years, plus the relevant records of Hueco Mundo and the Invisible Empire, a magical guy like Kisaragi Akira is also unique.
From the initial sacrifice of his Zanpakutō to the later engraving of the Kidō pattern, to the close personal relationship with the Soul King's right-hand man, to the high-ranking of Soul Society, he did not forget to be a king in Hueco Mundo, and also got a second-in-command position among the Quincies...
If one day, Kisaragi Akira suddenly received a letter from the Zero Squad, inviting him to go to the Soul King Palace and become one of them, Aizen would not be surprised at all.
After all, someone's existence is the biggest surprise.
Kisaragi Akira has no interest in the research of the brain in the jar.
This is not his track. If he has this time, he might as well go to the Hueco Palace to exchange feelings with the generals.
He found that he was immersed in the beauty of the Invisible Empire during this period, and he neglected the healthy development of the Arrancar's body and mind.
If he couldn't even take down a mere Gremi Tomeu, how could he follow him to fight north and south in the future, punching Yamamoto and kicking Youha?
It's time for two special trainings.
Kisaragi Akira walked and pondered, and soon left the laboratory.
Without the interference of strangers, Aizen can finally diverge his thoughts and conduct deeper research and experiments.
Following his operation, another container appeared in front of him, with a crystal clear gem inside.
The gem emitted a faint black and purple light, and countless meteor-like lines shuttled through it, as if it contained the entire universe.
The Collapsing Jade is a work he developed a long time ago.
Its creative inspiration mostly comes from the forbidden soul experiment, which is also partly related to Kisaragi Akira.
After many improvements in the later period, the Collapsing Jade is getting closer to the planned appearance.
Looking at the gem suspended in the container, Aizen couldn't help but think of a person-
Urahara Kisuke.
An existence that is often ruthlessly exploited by someone.
Although this guy verbally complained about the burden of various tasks, after Aizen's observation, Urahara Kisuke was obviously the kind of guy who said one thing and meant another.
Not only did he not hate the heavy work, but he often enjoyed it.
The main reason is that most simple tasks can be easily completed or handed over to others to solve.
As for more complex research work, such as the development of the gravity chamber, the reproduction of the mind forest, and the research and development of the god-transforming body, they are extremely challenging.
Every time one is completed, the researchers will gain physical and mental satisfaction.
Ru Yueming is responsible for proposing topics, and Urahara Kisuke focuses on research.
As a scientist, delving into the unknown and creating new things is undoubtedly the most joyful thing.
The multiple improvement plans for the Hougyoku were proposed by Urahara Kisuke.
After trying, Aizen suddenly found that these plans were very targeted and could greatly optimize the characteristics of the Hougyoku.
It reduces the danger to the experimental individuals when conducting hollow experiments and hollow experiments.
After completing the experiment, the strength of the experimenter will also increase to varying degrees.
Of course, these are just trivial.
The most critical thing is to improve the deep-level power of the Hougyoku.
Aizen found that the Hougyoku can not only break the boundaries of the soul, so that the god of death or the hollow can gain more powerful power, but also help complete some experiments that are impossible to complete at this stage.
Its powerful ability reminded him of something that Ru Yueming talked about.
Dragon Ball.
In someone's words, this is one of the greatest miracles, which can easily fulfill the holder's wishes.
For example, building a huge Suiryuke Paradise.
Of course, Aizen didn't know what this was, but considering someone's nature, this paradise was definitely not a serious thing.
Compared with the fantasy of Dragon Ball, the Hogyoku is more based on reality.
However, after learning about some of Gremi Tome's abilities, Aizen recalled many plans that he had abandoned.
Perhaps...
With the help of imagination, the Hogyoku can be optimized to an impossible height.
Under the lens, the light of wisdom flashed in the brown pupils.
…………
"Everyone, my heart is in pain!"
On the high platform, Kisaragi had a look of grief on his face, as if Urahara Kisuke had left him forever.
"I thought that under my leadership, you would continue to evolve and become stronger until you reach the top of the world."
"But I never expected that in just a few years, you have become so lazy."
"If you can't even defeat a mere Quincy, how can you follow me in the future?"
Offstage, the Hollows also showed a guilty look at the right time, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at Ru Yueming.
The king brought them a brand new life, opened up a new world, and even optimized the negative emotions of the instinctive hollows.
But they really failed the king's expectations and were ashamed of the king.
"In order to improve your strength."
Ru Yueming clapped his hands and signaled the hollows to look at him:
"I have decided to start special training."
"But before that, I need to know your strength level."
"So..."
"Let's start fighting!"
Soon, in the huge venue, two figures confronted each other from a distance, powerful spiritual pressure burst out wantonly, and the materialized light lingered around their bodies.
Tia Harribel VS Niliel Du Odeshvank
"Come and fight, Harribel."
Nilu's eyes were firm, "I will never lose to you!"
Harribel nodded, but she had no intention of giving in.
At first, she was very resistant to joining the Xuye Palace, but the time she lived here was an unprecedented moment of peace of mind for her.
No need to worry about attacks everywhere, no need to participate in ugly cannibalism, no need to worry about what the future will be like.
All she has to do is to follow someone and become the invincible sword in his hand.
For this reason, Harribel has enough reasons to win this battle.
It's about to start.
Because they know each other too well, the two of them immediately launched the Return Blade. After the light was shining, two figures that were completely different from before appeared in the center of the venue.
Seeing this, Ru Yueming was satisfied.
Good, very good.
Whether it is the figure or the face, it is first-class.
Harribel has a healthy complexion and a majestic heart. Her pair of green eyes are cold and repellent, but they have a different kind of temptation.
Nilu is even more amazing. When she is in the Return Blade state, she is undoubtedly a sure kill for some niche groups.
The Emerald Shooting Gun and the Broken Waterfall are in fierce collision, and the deafening explosion continues to echo.
The battle situation was once in a stalemate.
In the original work, the two were both No. 3 of the Ten Espada. Now, both sides are equally matched in terms of spiritual pressure and fighting skills.
In the final full-strength blast, the terrifying impact radiated in all directions, and visible white waves expanded in the sky of the Palace of the Night.
The two lost their fighting power at the same time and fell down.
The first battle ended in a draw.
It was a good start.
Next was Koyatai Stark VS Bylergan Ruisenbang.
Unlike the two who were full of fighting spirit before, these two have completely become the few salted fish.
The battle between you and me was very irritating.
As a result, Ru Yueming immediately went down and beat the two of them severely.
There were bursts of excited cheers from the audience.
The first ranking battle of the Palace of the Night lasted for nearly three days, and many Arrancars fought more than once.
It was precisely this battle with tenacious will that allowed some Arrancars to achieve the ultimate sublimation and a qualitative leap in strength.
Looking at the gorgeous lineup of many Arrancars in front of him, Ru Yueming smiled with satisfaction and stretched out his right hand:
"Everyone, no matter what happens in the future, no matter how powerful the enemy is, as long as you follow my footsteps..."
"There will be no rivals in front of us!"
