Infinite: Start as a ghost

"Fourth, Fullbringer."

Fifth, neutrality.

"Note that if you choose the neutral faction and harm any of the four factions, you will be forced to become an enemy of all factions."

Without hesitation, Jiang Jiu said, "I choose number five."

"Ding... Task generated."

"Ding... Mission issued."

If you come into this world not to crave all the abilities, then what's the point of coming here?

I already possess immortality, so what's there to be afraid of?

In short, it's all about doing it.

Now that he's come to the world of Bleach, his first target must be the Hogyoku, otherwise how could he live up to the system's decision to send him to this world?

Moreover, with the Hogyoku, you no longer need to worry about not having enough power when you go to any world.

With immortality, he can act freely without worrying about death.

However, there are two people he needs to be careful about.

One is Aizen, and the other is Kisuke Urahara.

All thoughts and actions must avoid those two; otherwise, you'll be relentlessly and endlessly tortured by their intellect.

He was still aware of his own limitations.

Judging by their intelligence, even strategists like Kagaya seem pale and powerless.

They were two of the most intelligent people he had ever met, and they were terrifying.

Whether it's Kisuke Urahara or Aizen, getting involved with them would be bad for Jiang Jiu.

Given their personalities, it's impossible for Jiang Jiu to gain their trust.

It's already a miracle that they weren't dissected and studied.

Speaking of research, Jiang Jiu thought of another person he was very wary of.

The current captain of the 12th Division, Mayuri Kurotsuchi.

Jiang Jiu's fear of him surpassed that of anyone else.

Although he is now a demon, Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a person who could very well develop a way to kill him.

Moreover, falling into his hands, death might be the only relief.

Thinking about all this, Jiang Jiu was both extremely cautious and incredibly excited.

Faced with opponents far stronger than himself, Jiang Jiu's warlike nature was constantly provoked.

In Demon Slayer, he was already invincible a long time ago, and he experienced a feeling called "emptiness" very early on.

But here, he was very self-aware, knowing how far he was from becoming "invincible".

"Blood Demon Art: Demon Embryo..."

With this in mind, he used his Blood Demon Art to create a great many demon fetuses and control them to hide in various parts of Karakura Town.

Another function of the ghost fetus is that it can be swapped with its original body.

If he were to be captured by accident, he could instantly switch places with the ghost fetus and escape.

Moreover, a ghost fetus and a ghost slave are not the same.

Before Jiang Jiu infused the ghost fetus with his abilities, it was an inanimate object, devoid of any vitality, and no different from an ordinary doll.

Only then could Jiang Jiu truly feel at ease.

What does it mean to be invincible from the start?

That's what you call being invincible from the start!

This time, he doesn't need to hide like he did when he first arrived in the Demon Slayer world.

As he pondered this, he hailed a taxi and headed towards Ichigo Kurosaki's house.

Although we don't know Ichigo Kurosaki's home address, let's not forget that his family runs a private clinic.

Even if others don't tell, taxi drivers are very likely to find out.

Jiang Jiu simply had the driver drop her off at a secluded spot near the clinic, then secretly hid in the shadows to observe.

He found that the clinic was closed, so he searched around for Ichigo Kurosaki's house.

The Kurosaki family's house wasn't far from their clinic, so Jiang Jiu easily found their residence.

So how did Jiang Jiu find it?

The surnames are written on the front doors of the houses in Yamato-ju.

There's only one shop with the words "Kurosaki" on it around the clinic. Who else could it be but them?

The nights in Yamato are quiet, unlike the bustling atmosphere of my homeland.

Jiang Jiu originally wanted to jump onto their roof and stay there for the night, but considering that Aizen might be watching, she had no choice but to find another place to stay.

Unbeknownst to him, a black butterfly, invisible to him, was slowly flying nearby.

Finally, the girl turned to a short-haired girl wearing a black kimono with a Japanese samurai sword hanging at her waist.

The girl was looking at Jiang Jiu with curiosity.

Chapter 3 Urahara Kisuke

The girl glanced at Jiang Jiu curiously for a moment, then immediately ignored him.

It was late at night, and Jiang Jiu's actions seemed very suspicious to her, but these were matters of the human world, and the girl shouldn't interfere.

Her goal was to find a whole dog that was lingering nearby.

Jiang Jiu was unaware of all this, because with only 4 points of spiritual pressure, he couldn't see it or even sense it at all.

A normal person's spiritual pressure is 10 points, but now he's not even as good as an ordinary person.

After observing for an hour, he found nothing unusual; he didn't even see a trace of the family.

Suddenly, their house exploded.

"Huh??" Jiang Jiu immediately perked up: "What's going on?"

Before long, to his astonishment, Karin Kurosaki was lifted into the air by some unknown force.

"Is this when the story just begins?" Jiang Jiu thought to himself, "Damn system, it didn't give me any time to prepare."

He then lost interest in continuing to observe.

Although a long time has passed, the plot of Death is still clear in his mind.

The reason he hadn't realized it was this world before was simply because he hadn't paid much attention to the words "Karakura Town" when he watched anime before.

But the moment he saw spiritual pressure appear within his body, the first thing that came to mind was "Shinigami" (death god), and the name Karakura Town immediately brought it back to his memory.

Besides Fullbring, Ichigo Kurosaki possesses three other powers.

Destroyer, empty, whole.

If it had happened a day earlier, he would have definitely attacked Kurosaki Ichigo directly, absorbing the three powers within him.

"What a pity," Jiang Jiu said with some regret. "Well, what's done is done, there's no use feeling sorry about it now."

"Perhaps the system was designed to guard against this move of mine."

"That's fine. If I absorb the power within Kurosaki Ichigo beforehand, Kurosaki Isshin might awaken immediately, and I'll have a formidable enemy."

"The future of the Hogyoku will also be unpredictable."

"In that sense, it might not be such a bad thing."

He is currently in a neutral camp, and other camps should not harm him unless he intentionally hurts anyone.

There is still room for maneuver, so that you won't be surrounded by enemies from the very beginning.

What should I do next?

Jiang Jiu thought it over and over.

Looking for Urahara Kisuke?

Or should I go find Ginjo Kugo?

He couldn't find either side.

After pausing to think, he decided to follow Ichigo Kurosaki for the time being, letting the plot unfold and eventually finding Kisuke Urahara.

He recalled the plot and remembered the birth of the soul.

The soul was bought by Rukia from Urahara's shop.

"Hmm, I should follow her first," Jiang Jiu thought to himself.

He was unaware that Rukia had discovered his existence.

A short while later, he saw Kurosaki Ichigo, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly faint.

"He's here." Jiang Jiu's eyes narrowed. "He's become the Grim Reaper!"

Then, after an unknown amount of time, Ichigo Kurosaki's body awoke.

"Is the battle over?" Jiang Jiu pondered the upcoming plot: "Next, Rukia will probably use a cyborg and become Ichigo Kurosaki's classmate."

He thought about it and decided to ignore her.

A few days later, Jiang Jiu silently watched them from the shadows, without affecting the plot in the slightest.

He watched helplessly as Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia helped Orihime Inoue deal with her brother.

Watch as Ichigo Kurosaki, along with Rukia and Chad, helps a young boy trapped inside a parrot send his soul to Soul Society.

This incident made him see the gates of hell, reminding him of the Grim Reaper's existence.

"The Gates of Hell," Jiang Jiu thought. "How could I have forgotten this? Is the spiritual power within the Gates of Hell the same as the other four?"
