Chapter 50: Ichigo potential (50)
"Why are you sticking so close to me" Ichigo shot back, it's been like a day and a half and Sora was there, always where he was.
Sora took out his Ginto and looked at Ichigo before.
"Mask of twilight, veil my truth. Let the echoes of my soul sing another's song."
Maskenwand
As those words left his mouth, the reishi store in the Ginto came outside of it.
The Reishi swerved around Ichigo a bit as if to get used to his specific tuning.
The very next second, the Reishi went to Sora, as that happened, the Ribbon signalizing Sora Reiatsu which was usually white to showcase that he was a Quincy, turned red.
"What did you just do?" Ichigo asked, his sensing skills were now better due to Urahaha's training, speaking of that man training, Using Sora as some form of motivator, this man pushed Ichigo to his limit, every single day he would have been brought to near death, only for Tessai to heal him and for the whole cycle to repeat itself over and over again.
All of his senses have been increased by a huge margin, and his control over his Reiatsu was still ass though, it still flare uncontrollably, he was like a walking target me flag.
He could not do a stealth mission as with his Reiatsu flaring so much, anyone with even the slimmest Reikaku( spiritual energy sensing) Skill could detect him quite easily.
This was why Sora planned on using him in order to drag that Kenpachi fella away, he truly hoped Kenpachi would not become disinterested the second he figured out Ichigo wasn't the strongest.
What were the chances he got jumped by Kenpachi after having finished a fight with like a top tier?
"Masking my Quincy heritage, I don't know if you notice but Soul Reaper and Quincy don't mix well, it's like Minor and Romeo, making those two meets usually end in death"
To anyone else, this mind has gone over their head, but to Ichigo, whose favorite person was the man who wrote the book, Romeo and Juliette, he knew that Juliette was a minor and that Romeo was not.
The story did end in death.
"Couldn't you have asked me before doing it?" The boy shot back.
"Not really, I wanted your spiritual presence to remain neutral, and with you knowing why, it would not have stayed neutral and be slightly guarded, alert or even show annoyance, I wanted neutrality" Sora explained.
Ichigo understood, didn't mean he liked being followed.
"In exchange for letting me do that, let me teach you how to make the sphere"
"I can do it myself," The boy said confidently.
"Say the dude who has been struggling with it for half a day" Sora shot back.
"I wasn't struggling, I was just getting warmed up" That was a solid excuse.
"Don't pull that tough act in front of me, Orihime is not here so stop trying to impress the Huzz"
"I am not trying to impress no one!" He practically shouted, he looked impressed.
"Huh, you don't like Orihime, that's weird, she seems sweet, has the same hair color as you, and a nice rack, how much more greedy can you get" Sora practically teased.
"...She...is just a friend..."
"Ichigo....my friend....if you fumble this... I will personally smack the shit out of you..." Sora said calmly, both of his hands in a prayer position as if to say, I pray to whatever god above, you don't fumble this.
"Shut up," The boy said sounding embarrassed.
"You going to help me or what!"
Hmm, seems like his teasing was working, oh well.
"Hold the ball"
As he watched Ichigo doing so.
"I want you to close your eyes....imagine a sphere in your mind, now imagine yourself holding that sphere, feel the warm sensation of Reiryoku in your body, guide it, feel it flowing through your veins"
As Sora said that, he began to slowly inject some of his Reiryoku inside Ichigo's body in order to have the energy flow.
Sora's brow furrowed....that.....that was hollow Reiatsu...
Was Ichigo perhaps.....a Vizard?
Sora felt something similar to Quincy's energy, suppressing some of the hollow and soul-reaper power.
Using his dominion over Reishi, he slowly begins to break that seal.
However, he realized he could only break a small fraction of that shield, whatever made the seal was strong enough to combat Sora's control.
However, as soon as Sora did that.
Ichigo Reiatsu flare, uncontrollably.
Sora's gaze widened as he felt Ichigo Reiatsu match his own.
Wait....what kind of monstrous power was this?
"Hahahahaha" A darker voice could be heard laughing, and what seemed to be a hollow mask seemed to be forming around Ichigo's face.
Sora felt the air at the back of his neck stand up, the dread he was feeling was like no other.
It was like the thing in front of him was his very enemy, his very opposite.
Sora watched as the hollow mask formed in front of Ichigo's face.
As that happens, Sora finds the best chance to use this.
Decided to use a new spell from his Kido, Ginto fusion he was working on.
"Chains of despair, arise and entangle. Bind the unruly, suppress their light!"
Schattenketten
The very next second, what seemed to be a chain could be seen all around Ichigo, restraining his body.
The beast in control struggles however, Sora just smiles.
"This seal was made especially to contain people with hollow powers" Sora mutters watching the beast shake in the chains.
"Get out of my body" I
Yeah, that was Ichigo's voice.
"Let me kill him"
"Get out"
As that was heard, Ichigo could be seen ripping the mask away from his face.
He was tired, drained even, however as he looked at Sora, the boy seemed to be giddy.
He felt a strange feeling going down his spine.
Sora could not understand what he was feeling, the spike in Ichigo's power, so much raw untapped potential, potential that may even Rival Sora, to say his interest wasn't peaked would be an understatement.
A fire seems to have been lit under Sora's eyes.....shinigami/Hollow hybrid, with Reiatsu at the same level as him when his hollow form comes out.
So much....untapped potential.
"We going to have fun," Sora said a strange gleam in his eyes.
A/N Sora spent some time with Hachi, who showed him the basic of Kido spells, using that knowledge alongside some shit, he got from his fight with Byakura, and like all the Vizards who use Kido, Hado, Hoho against him.
He was able to make the new hybrid style.
Quincy Gintō techniques typically rely on Reishi manipulation and stored energy within silver tubes. These are activated through incantations and are versatile but generally less complex compared to Shinigami Kido.
While Kido usually uses the Shinigami Reiatsu and incantation to be done, this new style would rely on the surrounding area Reishi, so its weaker in the human world.
Sora developed a method to mimic the structured spiritual "formula" of Kido by imprinting it onto Reishi. This involved him studying how Kido work and then using his adaptation power in order to find the sweet spot.
Yes, due to his shrift, it was easier for him to do, without the shrift the process would have taken weeks if not months.
So far, he has working spells.
1. Höllensiegel (Hell Seal)
Inspiration: Bakudō #99: Kin (Seal)
Description: Using several Gintō tubes arranged in a formation, the Quincy creates binding chains of condensed Reishi that immobilize the target.
Unlike the Kido version, these chains continuously siphon Reishi and Reiatsu from the victim, weakening them over time.
Incantation: "Chains of despair, forge bonds eternal. Steal the breath of defiance."
3. Himmelsschilde (Heaven Shields)
Inspiration: Bakudō #81: Dankū (Severing Void).
Description: A multi-layered barrier technique created by arranging Gintō in a defensive formation. Unlike Dankū, this barrier absorbs incoming energy-based attacks and reconstitutes them as Reishi to fuel the Quincy's counterattacks.
Incantation: "Divide the heavens, scatter the storm. Hold firm against chaos!"
This style has pros and Cons.
Strengths of the Hybrid System
Efficiency: Unlike Kido, which relies on personal Reiatsu reserves, these techniques primarily use ambient Reishi, making them less taxing for extended use.
Flexibility: It's hella flexible, as due to it being less taxing on your reserves, you are not limited to a certain amount of spells, just like seals in Naruto and coding in the real world, as you long as you have the time, and skill you can make anything.
Power Amplification: Gintō techniques enhanced with Kido formulas can rival the power of high-level Kido without requiring the same mastery.
Weaknesses and ChallengesComplexity: Well of course its complex, it takes a long ass time to learn and is kind of Quincy-exclusive, unless you like very good with controlling ambient Reishi it will be hard.
Energy Dependency: Overuse of hybrid techniques in areas with sparse Reishi can leave Quincy vulnerable.
Also, depending on your Reishi gathering speed, the speed to gather the Reishi may leave you vulnerable.
1. Schattenketten (Shadow Chains)
Description: Using multiple Gintō tubes, the Quincy summons chains of Reishi that bind the target, immobilizing them and continuously draining their spiritual energy
Incantation: "Chains of despair, arise and entangle. Bind the unruly, suppress their light!"
Special Spell: Maskenwand (Masking Veil)
Description: A spell designed to alter the Quincy's spiritual signature, making it indistinguishable from a Soul Reaper's Reiatsu.
The spell uses a combination of Gintō-infused Reishi and the Quincy's spiritual energy to mimic the spiritual frequency and texture of Soul Reapers.
This allows the Quincy to infiltrate Soul Society or deceive opponents during combat. {Ie, can also be used to turn it into a hollow, fullbring too}
Mechanism: The spell creates a thin, malleable layer of energy around the Quincy that constantly adjusts its spiritual output to mimic the subtle fluctuations of a Soul Reaper's Reiatsu.
Incantation: "Mask of twilight, veil my truth. Let the echoes of my soul sing another's song."
Here is the name of the two spells he used.
Well, got a name for this system.....its Himmlische Schrift germen for (Celestial Script).
