Crossover: A Different Inuyasha.
Chapter 160 Reincarnation Capital
The architectural style of the Wheel of Reincarnation has a unique mixed aesthetic that blends the various realms.
The inner city consists of the Thirteen Guards of the Imperial Household and the Lord's Mansion, with the buildings enclosed by towering walls.
Outside the city wall, the main roads are separated by eight directions, spreading outwards in a fan shape. The streets and alleys vary in width, and the eaves are staggered in height.
It's like stacking blueprints from different worlds in one place, according to their different styles.
The casual yet meticulous cutting and piecing together created an unexpected harmony.
Eastern eaves stand side by side with Western arches, and modernist glass curtain walls echo Gothic stained glass windows.
The walls are engraved with barrier patterns drawn by an Onmyoji, while around the corner hangs a neon sign from a technological civilization, its light flickering in the dark blue twilight.
The streets are filled with supernatural beings such as monsters, ninjas, onmyoji, and death gods.
The further away from the inner city one goes, the more ordinary souls there are.
To facilitate travel, every so often in the outer city, there is one or more high-speed trains powered by spiritual energy, speeding along elevated tracks with an ever-increasing circumference.
The high-speed trains circle around the inner city, continuously traveling through eight different areas.
Buses and cars arrived in droves.
Cultures from different worlds and different soils collide and permeate each other here.
Like seeds sown in the same fertile soil, none of them press down on the others; each strives to grow, while the others intertwine to form a shady canopy.
Meanwhile, ten kilometers away, there is a large, well-organized residential area where souls who migrated from the Yu Yi You Shi (a fictional world) reside.
That vibrant scene of everything flourishing and bursting with life is right before my eyes.
Yoruichi Shihouin and Soi Fon have already left, while Inuyasha and Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto stand on the inner castle tower.
He looked at Kyo, a punk character with an anime style and a strong Soul Society-esque art style, smacked his lips, and found it hard to comment.
As for Yamamoto's personal agenda, Inuyasha can understand it.
He simply poured all his life's hopes and dreams for Seireitei into Reincarnation.
This is actually a good thing.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekoku said, "Lord God, the population of the Reincarnation Capital has now exceeded forty million, and the number of souls continues to grow."
"We established eight administrative systems radiating outward from the eight gates of the inner city as the axis, named after the directions of due east, southeast, and due south, each forming a separate entity."
"Within each region, we further divide it into levels by ring roads—taking the east as an example, we have already defined the first and second ring roads in the east, expanding outwards layer by layer, and so on, striving to cover all aspects of people's lives with the management system."
Mr. Yamamoto, who founded the assassin group, was not good at meticulous management.
However, as their horizons broadened and the number of talented individuals within their territory increased, coupled with Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's visit to Ruri Shrine and Zenkenkyo, he actively recruited a large number of management talents.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said calmly.
"In addition, a new school for extraordinary individuals is being built in the outer regions to select talents from the grassroots level, divided into academic and martial arts categories, and finally aggregated into the eight branches of the Shinigami Academy. Graduates are then assigned to the various squads of the Gotei 13 according to their personal wishes and assessment results."
Inuyasha remained noncommittal, his expression calm. "Management is a matter of individual methods. As long as the general direction is correct, you can decide the rest of the details yourselves."
The cities in the eastern part of his territory are basically converging with the scattered Handong.
Every city bears the mark of its lord—some value order, some cherish freedom, some favor technology, and some adhere to tradition.
The city lords of the Sun Wheel Celestial Realm enjoy long lifespans, and over time, their own management philosophies naturally become imprinted on the city's development.
There are indeed people who treat the city like their own backyard and act like local tyrants.
After the stationed priestess reported the findings, the spies followed, and the evidence was gathered. Then, the Doubu came knocking, and the entire family was wiped out.
Sensing Kyo's presence, Inuyasha asked, "Is Tia still in Hueco Mundo?"
"According to the schedule."
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni replied.
"Lord Heribel should now be in Shanjianjing participating in political studies."
In order to facilitate the management of personnel at all levels, a unified school and various professional universities were built in the capital.
Spiritual arts, spells, mechanisms, architecture, agriculture, astronomy, medicine, commerce... each discipline has branched out into sub-disciplines.
Each branch incorporates theoretical knowledge and practical experience from different worlds.
The sheer variety of species encompasses almost all the essence of the worlds under the rule of the Eastern Kingdom.
The faculty includes a scholar of yokai who has lived for over a thousand years, a senior Jonin recruited from the ninja world, and subject leaders recruited from modern schools. Several members of the Zero Division have also been invited as guest teachers to spread knowledge.
A paradise for academic elites.
"What's the point of a slacker being so diligent?" Inuyasha, who knew him inside and out, muttered to himself before reaching out and parting the void, which rippled like water.
Across from us are classrooms at Zenkenkyo's highest institution of learning—bright, clean, and bathed in sunlight.
Halibel sat by the window, her high-necked white dress covering her chin, revealing a pair of emerald green eyes beneath her tousled blonde hair. Her calm demeanor exuded a cool and aloof aura.
But if anyone were to take a closer look at her open notebook—the contents of which would shatter all solemnity into nothingness.
The first page is filled with knowledge notes, along with neatly written words like "Strive for progress every day" and "Study hard," as if it were a vow made to oneself on the first day of school.
Accompanied by a few crooked little figure sketches, it's like the remnants left behind after the soul has been beaten by knowledge and left the body.
Halibel certainly learned professional knowledge, but it went in one ear and out the other, returning to the teacher's mind on the podium.
"Tia".
As the familiar voice unfolded through the spatial passage, the students in the classroom, who were at least at the third realm or high-ranking officials, turned to look at the sound—and in the next second, they all stood up.
"Lord God!"
Halibel looked up and her gaze met that of Inuyasha, who was waving at her.
Her emerald green eyes were clear and focused, so clear that there was no trace of being tainted by knowledge—she blinked, as if she had just been gently shaken awake from a long reverie.
She then closed the notebook, tucked it under her arm, and rose amidst the respectful gazes of the room, passing through the space to land beside Inuyasha.
Halibel frowned slightly, his expression serious. "I'm still studying..."
Inuyasha raised his hand to cut off her lewd words that she was about to continue. As a poor student in his past life, he hated such nonsense the most.
It's no wonder that Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni took over the administration of Tōrinkyō.
"Lord of Helibel, you must understand your primary and secondary responsibilities."
Inuyasha spoke in a serious tone.
"As your strength increases, your wisdom will naturally be inspired, and when you go back to learn these things, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Strength and wisdom are complementary in intelligent beings; a simple brute would have been beaten to a pulp long ago.
Halibel nodded thoughtfully. Inuyasha, seeing this, understood that there was an emptiness in Hollow Heart, and that everyone was "unable to obtain what they desire." He did not continue speaking.
Words alone can never compare to reality.
Inuyasha instructed, "Give the order that no matter what happens, do not panic. Also, have people keep a close watch on things."
"This is a gift for our first meeting, and also a rare stroke of good fortune."
Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and Halibel immediately took action.
Captain-Commander Yamamoto even summoned all the captains and vice-captains left behind in Seireitei, gathering them all atop the inner castle tower.
Thirty-odd figures lined up along the parapet, the captain's haori fluttering slightly in the wind, each with a different expression and a different thought.
Kuchiki Byakuya, the captain of the Sixth Division and one of the Four Noble Families, gazed at the inner castle, which was now empty except for the presence of the king.
He, who was usually calm and collected in his thinking, felt both bewildered and excited.
Kuchiki Byakuya was once a sentimental young man who, disregarding his status as the heir to a top-tier noble family, married Hisana, who came from Rukongai.
This was the first time he had defied the rules of the nobility. Afterwards, he knelt before his father's tombstone and swore that he would henceforth assume the responsibilities of the nobility.
If even the Kuchiki family, the head of the noble families, cannot take the lead in upholding and enforcing the Soul Reaper's Rules, what about the rest of us?
However, he broke his vow in response to his beloved wife's dying wish, taking her younger sister Rukia as his adopted sister and giving her the name Kuchiki.
The two consecutive breaches of the ban caused Kuchiki Byakuya to reflect deeply and become taciturn and cold-hearted.
Now, after discovering that his wife, father, grandfather, and others can be resurrected, his heart has come alive and is beating passionately.
In this magnificent era, the old rules and regulations have been broken one by one.
He didn't know if it was good or bad.
But one thing is certain—there is great potential!
Hashirama Senju donned the captain's haori and replaced Kaname Tōsen, who was imprisoned, as the captain of the Ninth Division, responsible for the management and order maintenance of the Tenryūkyo Prison.
His younger brother, Tobirama Senju, replaced Gin Ichimaru and joined the Third Division, which was responsible for support duties, becoming its captain.
Tobirama Senju originally wanted to join the 12th Division's Technology Development Bureau.
But the power difference between captains and non-captains led him to switch to the Third Division.
Elected by the people of the Divine Tree World, Tobirama Senju, who awakened his Zanpakuto, overwhelmed Rojuro Otori, a member of the Visoreds who had returned from the human world and was the former captain of the Third Division, in a fair battle, and became the undisputed captain of the Third Division.
At the same time, a large number of ninjas joined the two squads, effectively gaining power within the squads and influence outside of them.
After Aizen Sousuke left, the position of captain of the Fifth Division was taken over by a demon with outstanding military achievements and exceptional strength.
In the battle to unify the Netherworld, everyone achieved the results they desired.
Kyoraku Shunsui glanced at his three new colleagues. He admired Senju Hashirama, but as for the other two, he politely declined.
He adjusted his straw hat, tilted his head to look at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and asked, "Old man, what's the purpose of this commotion?"
Grandpa Yamamoto stood with his white eyebrows lowered, one hand on his sword and the other stroking his white beard. "Of course it's a good thing. Just watch closely."
On the other side were Helibel's three subordinates, Sun Sun, Mila Rose, and Apache, as well as Nelieel, who had recently joined his ranks, and her two subordinates.
As members of the castle lord's personal guard, Hyonbu Ichibei and others also stood on the side of the Great Hollow, waiting quietly.
And ahead of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni in position was Tia Heliber.
Lord of the Wheel of Reincarnation!
In the outer city, the Shinigami of the Gotei 13 were scattered across the eight districts, each standing in a prominent position, maintaining order.
Inuyasha, inside the inner city, flicked his finger, and a perfectly round, seven-colored ball of light flew from his palm and fell into the ground of the inner city.
There were no deafening roars or thunderous sounds.
The moment the sphere of light sank into the ground, the entire Netherworld seemed to be muted, only to be silenced again a moment later.
A rich, primordial energy of the world began to emanate outwards from the point of impact.
Like ink drops falling into clear water, spreading and blurring at the seam between the void and the earth.
The seven-colored light resembled ribbons or ever-changing bridges of light, illuminating the surroundings in a dreamlike manner.
Inuyasha hovered in mid-air, his eyes slightly narrowed, displaying his omniscience and omnipotence.
In his perception, the world seemed to have transformed into a program that could be rewritten and reorganized at any time—the boundaries of heaven and earth, the folds of space, and the flow of energy were all adjusted and stretched little by little according to his will.
The primordial energy began to overflow outwards.
Those city lords, captains, guards, and subordinates who were closest to the city were the first to feel the miraculous changes.
The warm and deep breath, carried by the flow of air, brushed across my face, like an invisible spring flowing over my body and seeping into it, modifying the underlying code.
Flesh and blood are stretching, and spirits are resonating.
The spiritual pressure that was predetermined from birth is now increasing inch by inch!
Yoruichi Shihouin involuntarily took a deep breath, feeling the spiritual pressure rising at a clearly perceptible speed.
She gazed at Inuyasha amidst the interplay of multicolored light and chaotic darkness, her eyes sparkling.
The illusory mask that had been slashed off Neliel's head was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The hazy memories gradually became clearer, and the lost power surged back into the body along the threads of memory.
Her figure rapidly lengthened in the light—from a tender child's appearance, she stretched and stretched out, her long hair cascading down, transforming back into that long-haired, spirited, and mature woman.
She looked down at her palm, then at the two subordinates who were beginning to break free of their own forms within the power of the source—Pesee Kadishe and Dondechaka Bielstan.
During the long years they were banished from Hueco Mundo, the two were like friends, but even more like family.
"From now on, let me protect you." Neliel's gentle gaze held a hint of joy, and then she looked at Halibel, who had turned to look at her, and nodded slightly.
"I wish Gintoki were here too."
Ise Nanao upstairs is a bit of a disappointment.
The primordial energy, carried by the wind, crossed the city walls and drifted in all directions, merging into the space and enriching the profound essence of the secluded world.
On the city wall, all was quiet except for the sound of the wind and breathing; no one looked away.
Everyone held their breath in shock, witnessing themselves and the city being reshaped simultaneously—the lands of the inner and outer cities were separated in an instant.
The inner city rises from the ground, like a dragon raising its head, overlooking the eight directions.
