Killed For 100 Years in Hueco Mundo, Aizen Invited Me To Soul Society! Chapter 300: Soul
The so-called space-transference, the so-called immortality, and even his devouring ability were actually the supplentary abilities after Mazuru releases his Bankai. The real ability of his Zanpakuto was actually the power to invade the mysterious realm of the souls.
Sojiro didn't understand what Mazuru ant by the sentence that the most important thing in shinigami was the soul, wasn't that a matter of course?
But this was not as simple as sounded, Mazuru's personal experience over the years had made him reach this answer from another perspective.
Shinigami, except for so nobles who have lived in the Soul Society for generations, most of them were actually forr human beings, who died in the world of living, and so of them had souls with spiritual power who then achieved the profession of shinigami through systematic training.
Like humans in the world of living, shinigami have bodies that bleed when injured.
But in fact, this body, blood, all were just appearances, and what was really important was the main soul.
The so-called body was nothing more than an aggregate of reishi, which protect the inner soul and endow the shinigami with an extrely long lifespan.
Of course, there was a price, that is, the souls with spiritual power compared to ordinary souls, would have a sense of hunger.
On the contrary, those souls that do not have spiritual power and do not have spirit particles to aggregate their bodies, they do not know hunger, and their life span was not as long as that of souls with spiritual power.
If such people live in an environnt with slightly richer spirits, one would die due to various discomforts.
So although it seed that they were all souls, there was a huge difference in their souls' quality and characteristics and so a soul with spiritual power and a soul without spiritual power were actually two completely different existences.
The most basic difference is, the shinigami have the Saketsu (Binding Chain) on them which was just as important as the Chain of Fate was on a soul. While there was no chain per se connected to a shinigami, the area where the Chain of Fate was originally was still just as important as when the shinigami was a simple soul. In a shinigami, the Saketsu acts as a boost to spiritual power, in conjunction with the Hakusui (Soul Sleep), the source of spiritual power. These two points were commonly considered pressure points. If they were pierced, they seal up this spiritual power, and the shinigami would lose all their power. The shinigami who experiences this would never be a shinigami again.
Mazuru's infinite rebirth after opening the enchantnt seed unbelievable, but the actual operation behind this was very simple.
Since the most important thing in shinigami was the soul, the body, the appearance was not the key. As long as the soul was intact, the body could even be reshaped wantonly without any problems. Mayuri, the mad scient- no, the captain of the Twelftth Division, probably transford his body based on this conjecture.
Mazuru did not modify his body in any way.
In the enchantnt of his Bankai, once his body was damaged or even died, he had the power to condense spirit particles and rebuild a new body for himself and place his soul in it.
So to defeat him, there was not only one way to go, that is, to break the enchantnt, but there was a simpler and more direct way, which was to target his soul.
But because his Zanpakuto was a soul-type Zanpakuto, in the enchantnt, his soul would be protected extrely tightly.
Therefore, if sobody wants to target his soul, they could only go back to the original thod, which was to break the barrier. This was also why, Mazuru had the confidence with play with the Soul Society's forces in Las Noches.
...
In Noble Street.
The world was crimson, and many mbers of the nobles were continuously dying one after another without knowing how and why, which was causing even greater panic.
So of the nobles have been systematically trained and were regular shinigami, they imdiately liberated their Zanpakuto and took precautions.
However, the force that was killing the people around them was both invisible and intangible. They didn't even realized who the enemy was, before this sa force directly eroded into their bodies, and then hooked out their souls and pulled them in Mazuru's direction for devouring.
"It's a bit like Gonzui (Soul Inhalation)."
Grimmjow watched many souls rushing towards Mazuru, and then being swallowed by the rippling blood-mist around him, and couldn't help but think of an ability possessed by Yammy. Back then, Yammy used this ability in Karakura Town, causing death of many ordinary humans.
After Yammy performs Gonzui, the souls of ordinary humans around would involuntarily leave their bodies, and then be swallowed by him through his mouth like food.
Mazuru smiled slightly when he heard Grimmjow's words. His ability was indeed a bit like Gonzui, but it was much more powerful and versatile than it. After all, Gonzui could not hook out shinigami's soul out of their bodies nor it could retain them for latter-use.
Of course, there were also restrictions, one that he needed to be in the barrier to display this ability, and besides that, there were so other restrictions.
The change in Noble Street quickly attracted the attention of the rest of the shinigami present in the Seireitei.
After all, such a big crimson barrier suddenly covered Noble Street, people outside couldn't get in, people inside couldn't get out, and again, the place covered by the barrier was the Noble Street, which itself was very strange.
In the current Seireitei, though most of the captains and vice-captains had gone to the world of living to participate in the battle, it was not like that there were no decent-ranking shinigami left.
So of them were not very good at fighting, and so, they were temporarily left in the Soul Society to deal with logistics, such as... Ise Nanao.
Though the vice-captain of the Gotei 13's Eighth Division, she was not very good at fighting, she did not even had a Zanpakuto. Although her Kidō attainnts were not bad, Kidō's influence on a decisive battle of such a scale was minimal, so in the end, Shunsui chose to keep her back in Seireitei.
If it was the past, Nanao might have argued hard, but after knowing that Shunshui was her own uncle, how could Nanao not know that this was Shunshui's way of protecting her.
He had always been like this, always protecting her from danger.
Another reason why Nanao made up her mind to stay in Soul Society was that Shunshui ntioned Mazuru.
He bluntly said that now that Mazuru had already gone to Hueco Mundo to participate in another battle, even if it was for Mazuru's sake, she should remain in Seireitei so as to remain absolutely safe.
The two n who were most important to her and were family to her had gone to their respective battles. Nanao knew that her fighting ability was diocre, so in the end she followed Shunsui's words and stayed in Soul Society.
It was also because she was one of the high-ranking shinigami who stayed in Seireitei that after learning of the incident in Noble Street, she imdiately took so shinigami and rushed towards Noble Street. When she ca to the vicinity of Noble Street and saw the crimson enchantnt, for so reason, Nanao felt that it was very familiar, and she also noticed an extrely familiar aura from it.
After repeatedly failing to break through the barrier with the help of Kidō, Nanao started trying to figure out another ways to enter the enchantnt.
With each mont, the shinigami were getting more and more anxious because no one knows what was happening inside the enchantnt.
Just when they were at a loss for what to do, suddenly a shinigami exclaid.
"The enchantnt is gone!"
After Nanao found that the enchantnt disappeared, she imdiately looked towards Noble Street.
The street was still the sa street, it seed that there was no change, but all the shinigamis sensed a little strangeness from it.
