Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

He then turned around, his gaze fixed firmly on the countless Cero flashes before him…

"Buzz!"

As Nel faced the barrage of Cero shots, she stretched out her hand.

"boom!"

The next second, these Cero flashes seemed to have their own consciousness and stopped in mid-air.

"what……"

After Nel stopped the Cero, she suddenly opened her mouth and swallowed the countless Cero in front of all the Adjuchas.

"What's happening here?!"

For a moment, the Adjuchas were all stunned. They felt a sense of bewilderment and helplessness, like the elemental mages in Fairy Tail encountering a mage of the same elemental type...

None of my family members understand this? This woman in front of us swallowed their 'Great Hollow' ultimate technique!

"what!!"

Just as the Adjuchas were bewildered, Nel suddenly opened her mouth, and accompanied by an overwhelming crimson light and a special pale pink light, a Cero that was even more powerful than the Adjuchas shot out towards them.

"what?!"

For a moment, the Adjuchas all showed expressions of fear.

"boom!"

Before these mid-level Void Realm cultivators could think further, a terrifying light suddenly exploded in front of them, completely engulfing their figures!

"call……"

After Nil finished doing all this, she exhaled burnt black smoke from her mouth and staggered slightly, clearly indicating that the move had taken a heavy toll on her.

Normally, her limit would be to absorb a single Cero from a Hollow of the same level and return to it. However, it just so happened that these Hollows were all of a lower level than her, which allowed her to barely maintain her strength and, at great risk, absorb all of these Cero.

"Lady Nel! Are you alright?!"

"Lady Nel, please don't do such risky things again next time. It's not worth it for us!"

“Yes, yes! You are the noble Vastod, and we are just insignificant ants…”

At this moment, the two Hollows protected by Nel were beyond tears. They had decided to stay with Nel for the rest of their lives. No matter what Nel became, they would stay by her side. Even if Nel died and went to hell, they would go with her!

"Okay, okay, I'm fine now~"

"You two should keep quiet for a bit."

After listening to what her two subordinates had to say, Nilu smiled and spoke.

"Oh my! This is truly a touching display of affection between master and servant!"

Just as Nel was comforting her two subordinates, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Um?!"

Nilu's expression changed drastically upon hearing that gloomy voice.

As Nel turned around, the group of Adjuchas appeared unharmed in front of her, smiling and waving at her.

"How can it be!?"

Before Nel could speak, the two Hollows behind her gasped in disbelief. That was Lady Nel's Cero! How could a mere Adjuchas possibly block it?!

impossible! Absolutely impossible!

"What's so surprising? We're not the same people we used to be!"

"Having received that great one's blessing, we are now invincible in the world..."

The group of Adjuchas looked at the panicked Nel and continued to sneer.

"It seems we'll need to spend a little more time."

As Nilu spoke, her eyes gradually darkened.

"Yes! It will take a little longer to defeat you~"

The Adjuchas continued to sneer as they walked towards Nel.

the other side……

Araki wasn't idle either. After sending a group of Adjuchas to attack Nelieel and Halibel, he went to Szayelaporro's laboratory, ready to fleece Szayelaporro.

"Hehe, Lord Araki, you've arrived~"

At this moment, Szayelaporro was looking at Araki with a smile.

Although Szayelaporro's loyalty to Araki would not waver in the slightest, he would still feel extremely uneasy when Araki's gaze fell on the equipment he used for experiments.

Fortunately, Araki only glanced at the instruments briefly before moving on...

Well, he's not Aizen, nor is he Urahara or Mayuri Kurotsuchi, so he can't understand this nonsense at all.

"call……"

Just as Szayelaporro breathed a sigh of relief, Araki arrived in front of the replica of Szayelaporro lying in the petri dish.

"Forehead……"

Szayelaporro stared intently at his clone, Araki, his forehead gradually beading with cold sweat.

"Your copy is not perfect!"

"It's less like a copy of you and more like a different person."

Araki looked the clone of Szayelaporro up and down before speaking calmly.

"Um?!"

Szayelaporro was stunned by what he heard.

"Crack~"

Before Sal could say anything, Araki snapped his fingers, and the petri dish in front of Sal suddenly shattered, revealing a replica of Szayelaporro inside.

"Um?!"

The moment the Szayelaporro clone opened his eyes, he saw a Szayelaporro who looked exactly like him and froze on the spot.

"Two of me? No, that's not right..."

"It's not two of me; one of us is a copy."

The clone of Nassar Apollo immediately understood the situation before him.

"who are you?"

Before the clone could say anything, Araki looked at the clone of Thrall in front of him and immediately asked.

“I am Szayepu…”

Nasar's clone answered instinctively.

"No! You are not Szayelaporro. Think again, who are you?"

Araki looked at the clone of Szayelaporro before him and continued to ask questions.

"I am not Szayelaporro, I am..."

For a moment, Szayelaporro was lost in confusion.

"Buzz!"

Just as Nasar's clone was in a daze, a bell suddenly rang in his ears, bringing him peace and enlightenment.

"Yes! I am not Szayelaporro, I am completely different from him!"

"I am neither Szayelaporro Granz nor Ilford Granz!"

"I am who I am, I am Theon Granz!"

The man who looked exactly like Sal suddenly burst into wild laughter, and he looked at Araki and spoke loudly.

"That's right! You are Theon Granz!"

"At this moment, I bestow upon you your true name, Gendalo."

After hearing the man's words, Araki smiled faintly, then his finger lit up with a glassy light and gently touched the other man's head.

"Thank you, Lord Araki, for bestowing upon me my real name!"

The man named Theon Granz knelt down on one knee before Araki, repeatedly expressing his gratitude.

"I see……"

"So it's actually my brother's personality that's taking over more of the original personality in this clone?!"

"This is incredibly troublesome, and Lord Araki is going to find out about it."

Meanwhile, although Szayelaporro's centuries-long replica was stolen by Araki and given a real name, becoming one of the Twelve Divine Generals, Szayelaporro didn't care. He used this opportunity to successfully discover the replica's flaws, and since the replica had problems, it was simply discarded.

"As long as Luo Jia is here, I can spend hundreds of years creating another clone!"

After thinking for a while, Szayelaporro stopped caring about his gains and losses.

"May I have your name?!"

Just as Szayelaporro was filled with confidence in his future, Araki suddenly appeared in front of Adjuchas, who had the upper body of a human and the lower body of a spider.

Yes, Theon was just something Araki subdued incidentally. Araki's real target has always been this Adjuchas-level Hollow who looks like Jorogumo, and her name is—Rhoga Palamia!

Although Loka was merely an Adjuchas, Araki didn't underestimate her in the slightest. After all, Loka had performed the absurd feat of copying Ichigo Kurosaki's "Mugetsu" in the official novel "SAFWY." While Loka couldn't perfectly replicate Ichigo's Mugetsu, and its power was only about 70-80% of the original, it was still "Mugetsu"!

Considering the absurdity of the official novel copying "Mugetsu," it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Roga is the most promising "Menmoon" in Hueco Mundo. In fact, if Roga weren't so weak-willed and didn't almost blindly obey Szayelaporro, she could even compete for the title of strongest "Menmoon."

Sometimes Araki would think, if Yammy hadn't been such an idiot, killing Roka at the very beginning and causing her to take time to revive, ultimately missing Ichigo's battle with Aizen and the others, the story of Ichigo and his companions' brave journey into Hueco Mundo might have been rewritten because of Roka. Of course, this was just a random thought; as the chosen one, some things were destined for Ichigo…

However, this also served as a reminder to Araki that even someone as powerful as Aizen could not avoid having some exceptional talents among his subordinates. Therefore, the Gotei 13, which he led, had to be careful and cautious, and absolutely could not make any mistakes.

"Me? Are you asking me? I, my name is Roja Palamia!"

After hearing Araki's words, Loka looked around frantically. She first glanced at Shal'Apollo, then at Theon. When neither Shal'Apollo nor Theon could help her, she finally looked helplessly at Araki, speaking in a very soft voice like a little animal that had made a mistake.

"Luo Jia? What a nice name!"

"So, do you want to become my subordinate, Roja?"
