Chapter 63 - How Many Should I Wield ?

I had been roaming around hunting, consuming, growing for three long years.

It was extremely mundane but I was finally at the Adjucha level. Right now I was able to reign in my hunger, my will and start working on complex intelligence required problems.

So after becoming an Adjucha, I directly sat down, since there is literally nothing in Hueco Mundo, and began thinking, 'What is a Hollow ?'.

A Hollow is a soul or spiritual state of Data thats been corrupted. It has foregone reincarnation or any other forms of data erasure to be the Soul Consuming being it has become.

The Reincarnation Theory, I believe in it, I am perfect example of what it is. But unlike all other cultures, I do not believe in the Karmic Judgement of Souls.

To me Reincarnation is unbiased and undeterred Erasure of Data. When someone dies and they have a lot of some form of supernatural energy, they exist as ghosts, but what about others who lack that sort of energy.

Their existence is erased, their residual and miniscule energy is then left back at the world. In that sense all reincarnators who have memories of their past are failed Erasure, the greatest Anomaly.

So yes the Afterlife exists, it just isn't Heaven or Hell, just plain Erasure of Data bound on some form of Energy, unbiased and uncaring.

Back to the question, so what is a Hollow constituted of ?.

Souls, yes, a generic answer to my question.

Reishi a good answer, the all solving one.

What is a Hollow or a Shinigami made off.

A Human is a carbon based lifeform, a Soul is a Data based lifeform, or in human terms a spiritual lifeform, thus it should not have the necessary conditions to act as a Carbon based lifeform.

But when in Shingami clothes, a Human is a spiritual lifeform. But when not in the Shinigami state, those Shinigami's are no different from normal Humans.

In soul society, all souls do not stray towards the the Mortal Realm no matter the reason, they simply aren't allowed to, which makes us assume that they aren't able to interact with the Material world, this could very well be false.

So how does a Shinigami affect the World as a Carbon based lifeform or is this skill only exclusive to the Shinigami.

Confusing isn't it.

That brings us to the Ultimate question, why is Soul Society no different from the living worlds society.

But in many cases we have seen the Shinigami's not only affect the Material world, but live in it as Humans.

That makes the assumption that,

A. Soul Society isn't the afterlife as it is told,

B. Shinigami's themselves are people who have foregone any forms of reincarnation or Data erasure.

Very Credible.

Which makes a Shinigami no different from a Hollow.

The basic difference between them is the need for consumption.

Hollows are beasts who prey on Soul or Spiritual Data that are uncorrupted, why ?, and what do Shingami consume if they are living and acting as Humans in their own realm.

If I had a say to what Shinigami consume to sustain them, Reishi would be the perfect answer. So why Hollows consume stray souls, again Reishi would be the perfect answer.

Which makes all Souls living either in Soul Society or Hueco Mundo, trespassers of the law of Death.

Remember how Truth said to me that, 'The law of Origin and The law of End' applies to all beings transcending across time and space in all dimensions.

This means that the Afterlife for Bleach verse exists, but it isn't the Soul Society. It also means that in the world of Bleach 'True Death' only apllies when either a Soul is killed and Data inside Reishi is dispersed or when it is consumed and the Data is broken down to.

This also means that the Shinigami are not the good guys, they are the renegades who have banded together. The Hollow aren't the bad guy's either, they are the cleaners who consume on each other in a cannibalistic way for strength.

Which makes Reishi an unknown form of Spiritual Energy, but also one that could have come from a Dimension beyond the Seventh, which puts it in equal levels to the Speed Force.

So the question to my answer is 'Will I be held accountable by another being for trying out stupid things with this Reishi ?'.

I guess not, since that never happened in the entirety of Bleach.

After solving this riddle, I came to the question, How to grow stronger ?.

The natural answer, Consume Reishi, the more purer the better. How much pure is a normal Hollow, about 5%.

How pure is a Shinigami or any Soul in Soul Society, about 55-25%.

Which makes me, not only the Predator of all the souls in Soul society, but its natural Enemy.

This also makes my progression extremely easy, because as long as I consume half of Soul Society. I am pretty sure I could go beyond Arrancar level, in technical terms something like an Espada but above it in terms of power, by somewhere about a 75% difference alone in any stats.

But for the Asauchi or the Weapons of Shinigami which later progress to Zanpakuto, I had hit dead end.

It wasn't particulary hard to theorise its creation process, the harder part was actually applying it.

How was it created ?.

If I had to take a guess then all Souls nearing 40% in terms of purity in Reishi were melded to make the Asauchi. But since the remaining 20% of Data corruption is a natural barrier and the other 40 a needed requirement, they had to take at least a hundred other in volume to make up for quality, refining them together.

This makes all Zapakuto's the most pure and strongest form of Reishi, which in turn makes me salivate, since that item is now 50% pure in terms of Reishi alone, which makes bending other lower level laws and Energy to will a breeze.

It also makes their true power from calling out Bamkai more and more complex as there are Souls powering the inflow of Reishi and giving it form through their own Data.

So to say that the Zanpakuto's power and techniques are a reflection of your inner self is no joke, because it is your subconscious nature that willed the blank sheet of Data or paper to write its own scripture.

Now comes the question then how does Zanpakuto's being able to take Human form relate to their rise in strength.

It does not.

Since they are just sheets of paper doused in your ink, your will, they are in the truest sense, your own reflection, which means that you are talking and fighting with your own self making you look like a moron to me.

The more you accept this fact in any kind of way, the more you can inforce or tweak the laws of your own self, thus not really requiring Bankai to be able to dish out heavy damage.

The Hollows are the prime example of this, they only have very few techniques and fewer special or unique techniques, but many a time they trump all Shingami even with their Zanpakuto on them.

All because there is no Hollow conflicting with his inner self to use his own power or employ such power. They have fought for it and do not doubt their earnings.

A Shinigami on the other hand is always conflicted because their power is employed through the Zanpakuto, so when they are unable to beat an opponent, they claim not their own fault but many a times as the Zanpakuto's weakness.

Which makes no literal sense since they are your own will and shaped by you, which also indirectly means that you are more dumber than you would think and shifting the blame isn't going to work, since in the end, its still insulting yourself.

Which may not seem astronomical at first but you have to understand that if it was made of Shinigami souls constituting a 40% purity with the lowest value of 2 as base possibilities for refining, even then it would require about 1,048,576 souls beginning at 40% to reach the 60% purity level.

This makes it astronomical to create even one Asauchi, but considering the Soul Society's Age and the number of Deaths happening across the world every single day, excluding about a quarter of them for becoming Hollows and excluding nearly half of them for not reaching requirements and excluding some of them as good human resources or talents.

Yeah it does not make sense how they can make the amount of Asauchi they have.

Applying my theory and beginning with a basic Hollow would require about 3.85856262E + 25 of basic Hollow Souls to completely purify one Asauchi to the extreme, which is 90%.

It took me three years to reach Adjucha and that was after me consuming about a million in terms of basic Hollow souls, thousand Gillian Souls and a hundred Adjuchas.

It naturally meant I would have to distill Arrancar class Hollows for one Asauchi, even then the sum required wouldn't be no less than a 1000.

When considering that from the present to the future, there were not many Arrancars, not even Hundreds, it was a pretty steep form of creation.

I could try to farm the Hollows, but it was not possible because after a certain amount of evolution, the barricades may not even hold their body, forget the Cero that must be added in the equation.

I could make Corrupted Asauchi or should I say Hollow versions of the Asauchi. Now this Asauchi does not begin at 60% purity which will make encoding stronger or complex Laws really really hard.

At its beginning, it won't be strong like the Zanpakuto's but it will work in the same direction.

But it will be directly opposite to the Asauchi, as the purity in Asauchi decreases bit by bit, it becomes stronger and less dependent on the Shinigami, on the other hand the Corrupted Asauchi will only rise in strength, but they will take only one form, one order, and forego all their possibilities.

Which means if The Zanpakuto's are chasing at complexity in Laws, as they go from Shikai to Bankai, making certain changes to their Laws and applications.

Mine would already be in a state of Fake Bankai and continue the pre ordained path laid to it.

It will progress certainly but only the Application will progress, not the Law itself.

Which is to say if I made a weapon and wrote its basic order as Adding, then it will follow that law till the very end. The only thing changing will be either in Increasing Damage or Stats or the amount of Reishi required for activating it.

If I create it, I will be sacrificing Evolution Potential for already doable tasks.

But then again, I can make as many as I want, and wield as many as I want, but also tweak it as many times as I want.

I wouldn't try tweaking more than once, since every try would probably kill the Asauchi, which means destroy it forever.

So I came at a Dead End, not at how to create, but at how many to wield.
