Help! I am bound to Aizen!

Chapter 121

Chapter 121

Upon hearing Kaelith's words, Senjumaru nearly fainted from anger.

What the heck, granddaughter... she's in the prime of her youth and beauty!

Before being promoted to the Royal Guard, she was always engrossed in research and enhancing her own strength. So, not to mention grandchildren, she didn't even have any children.

However, she would never admit this to the annoying brat Kaelith.

She felt that if she said it, she would have completely lost...

"By the way, Teacher, why did you suddenly come over today?"

Kirio Hikifune suddenly seemed to remember something, looking at him expectantly.

"Could it be that you have a new recipe?"

Kaelith looked at her. "Have you learned how to make the 'Rising Dragon Dumplings' I taught you last time?"

Kirio made a small sound and lowered her head. "Not yet..."

"Then let's focus on mastering the Rising Dragon Dumplings first. Once you've learned them, I'll teach you the 'Golden Smile.'"

Hearing this, Kirio couldn't help but show an eager expression.

The 'Golden Smile'—just hearing the name made it sound like a very splendid dish.

Even Senjumaru Shutara couldn't help but become curious upon hearing the names of these two dishes.

If it weren't for the numerous cumbersome rules every time the Royal Guard "descended," she would have wanted to come down herself to see what kind of dishes Kaelith was talking about.

Maybe she should make an effort to see if she could enhance the sensory capabilities of her Heavenly Garments?

As Senjumaru was pondering, Kaelith looked at Kirio, preparing to state his purpose.

But upon seeing Senjumaru sitting beside him, he suddenly stopped.

He knew very little about the Royal Guard.

If he revealed too much, it might cause trouble.

Seemingly guessing Kaelith's thoughts, Senjumaru said displeasedly, "What is it, brat? Are you worried that I might spread your secrets?"

"A mere little Soul Reaper from the Soul Society—I don't have that kind of idle interest in taddling."

Kirio also smiled. "Don't worry, Teacher. Despite how the Captain seems, she's actually quite nice."

"What do you mean by 'despite how I seem'?"

Listening to their exchanges, Kaelith thought for a moment and took something out of his pocket.

It was a small orb of light.

The artificial soul he had previously taken from Kirio Hikifune.

Seeing Kaelith take out the item, Kirio showed a look of realization.

It seemed her teacher might have encountered some difficulties during the fusion of the artificial soul.

She wondered how far he had progressed... With his talent, he should have fused about one-tenth of it?

Hmm, one-tenth might be a bit much. She was the developer and had inherent advantages; she couldn't expect others to progress at the same speed.

But he should have reached at least one-fifteenth by now, right?

After all, it's been quite some time since she shared this technology...

As she was thinking, Kaelith said:

"Captain Kirio, I wanted to ask if there's anything I should pay attention to when the artificial soul is almost fully absorbed?"

"Although there's still a bit left, I already have a vague feeling."

"If I fully absorb it, I might gain a new special ability... Is this normal?"

Kirio: "?"

Senjumaru: "?"

After confirming that Kaelith wasn't joking, Kirio was at a loss.

How long had it been since she shared the artificial soul technology with Kaelith?

Less than two months, right?

In such a short time, even for a genius, fusing twenty percent would be astonishing.

But Kaelith was almost fully fused?

Even Senjumaru was a bit stunned at this point.

As the former Captain of the Twelfth Division and Kirio's old superior, she had been deeply involved in the artificial soul technology.

Therefore, she knew the difficulty involved.

No wonder this brat didn't dare to say it directly... With such monstrous talent, if he didn't know how to keep a low profile, he might cause himself trouble sooner or later.

At least in this aspect, this brat had some sense.

Kirio silently looked up at the sky.

She couldn't help but wonder if she was truly the creator of the Gikon technology.

Maybe she was just a temporary risk-taking leader brought into the project team, and over time, she really thought she was the creator...

Before she could fall into self-doubt, Kaelith finally snapped her out of it.

With a mix of wanting to cry, envy, and relief, Kirio explained to Kaelith the results of fully fusing with the artificial soul.

"Just as you said, once you fully fuse with the Gikon, it will combine with your own spiritual pressure, granting you a new ability."

"The Gikon is an existence completely unrelated to your own spiritual pressure. Under normal circumstances, trying to use both powers simultaneously is very difficult; the return isn't proportional to the cost."

"But... obtaining the Gikon's ability is different."

"For example, my ability is to create a special seed within my body."

"During battle, I can instantly grow the seed into an ever-growing supertree, which can absorb the spiritual pressure released by the opponent, making the tree stronger and more robust."

"I've named this ability 'Life Barrier'!"

Saying this, she showed a proud smile:

"I'm not bragging, but even though I'm not yet a member of the Royal Guard and haven't received the Soul King's blessing..."

"If I unleash my 'Life Barrier' at full power, holding back half of the members of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads is no problem!"

Hearing this, Kaelith showed a somewhat astonished expression.

Holding back half of the Thirteen Squads... That's a bit too outrageous, isn't it?

Even without counting Captain-Commander Yamamoto, that's a force enough to shake the world.

Are all members of the Royal Guard monsters of this level?

He subconsciously looked at Senjumaru.

Come to think of it, this person could fight evenly with him and even suppress him just by remotely controlling a piece of clothing.

She was also a genuine monster.

However, if he remembered correctly, even with such powerful Royal Guards, they couldn't stop Yhwach's advance; in the end, it was Ichigo who won the final battle.

Then, what level is Yhwach at?

Kaelith couldn't help but click his tongue.

After learning about the abilities and effects of the Gikon, Kaelith took his leave.

Before he left, Senjumaru confidently stated that she would soon complete the Heavenly Garment Kaelith requested and told him to prepare the 'Rising Dragon Dumplings' and 'Golden Smile.'

Kaelith didn't mind.

If he could exchange two unique dishes for Senjumaru's Heavenly Garment, it would be a deal with no loss.

Thinking about these things, he followed a familiar route back to the Shin'? Academy dormitory.

As soon as he entered the room, Kaelith was slightly taken aback.

In the bunk that belonged to him and Aizen, new students were now lying there.

Only then did he remember.

He was no longer a student now...
