Chapter 320 Three Ways to Solve the Swastika
"Although it's dangerous, I'm very interested in Lu Jun's Bankai. It's rare to see such a great improvement in Bankai."

During the healing process, Aizen commented on Lu Li's previous condition.

In Aizen's opinion, it is normal for a Shinigami to have a significant increase in strength after using his Zanpakutō Bankai. Generally speaking, an increase of five to ten times is common, but Lu Li's situation is different.

It's not just the improvement in spiritual pressure. During the battle, Aizen also calmly observed that in addition to the improvement in Lu Li's spiritual pressure, his arm strength and a series of basic physical qualities have also improved. This is not something that ordinary Bankai can compare to.

What's more, the extent of Lu Li's improvement was too huge, far exceeding the multiples of ordinary Bankai.

"Sosuke, do you think what I just used was Bankai?"

Lu Li felt very strange. He was just talking to the Prisoner Demon in the world deep in his soul. Even now he didn't understand what the Prisoner Demon said to him in the end.

When Sosuke was just recovering from his injuries, he described his condition to him. His whole body was wrapped in a violent purple-black spiritual pressure, which forced Sosuke into a desperate situation in just nineteen seconds.

If he hadn't had some instinctive consciousness and put away his sword in time, Aizen would probably no longer be in this world.

But according to Sosuke's description, the appearance of Lu Li's Zanpakutō did not change, and he felt that his previous state should not be considered Bankai.

And if this is his Bankai, then he might as well not have it. No matter how strong the power is, it is poisonous if it is not under his control.

Most importantly, what fun would there be in fighting if he didn't fight in person?
"Although the form of your Zanpakutō has not changed, I think that Bankai is the only way to explain your sudden increase in spiritual pressure. To be honest, although I am only the vice-captain, my spiritual pressure is among the best among the captains of the Gotei 13."

As Aizen spoke, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. It seemed that he had been beaten badly before.

Lu Li increased the spiritual pressure output of Kaido and thought to himself, Sosuke, you are really modest. I am afraid that except for the captain-general and the self-indulgent Kenpachi Zaraki, no one has a higher spiritual pressure than you at the moment.

"Has this ever happened in Soul Society before, with a Bankai that can't change its form?"

Lu Li inquired.

"From what I know, there shouldn't be any, but you are special, Lu Jun, so it's not impossible. But regarding the development of your Bankai, I think you'd better be cautious."

Aizen used his spiritual pressure to clean the stains on his Death Garment. "Originally, I wanted to help you get a divine body."

"Divine body?"

Lu Li was stunned for a moment. He seemed to remember seeing a similar term in a comic book, but he couldn't remember it clearly.

"It's a new gadget created by the research department of Squad 12, but it's only a semi-finished product and has many problems. It will probably have to wait for subsequent geniuses to perfect it before it can be officially put into use by the Gotei 13."

Aizen introduced, "The researchers over there are promoting that they can use that item to forcibly copy the body of the Zanpakutō and materialize it. The original intention of their research is to allow the Shinigami to quickly learn Bankai. As long as they defeat the materialization of the Zanpakutō's body, they can learn Bankai."

He paused, trying to explain in a way that Lu Li could better understand, "Well... probably it means making your Zanpakutō convinced by you."

The necessary conditions for the Shinigami to complete the unlocking of Hajime are "dialogue" and "synchronization" with the Zanpakutō. This is the same for all Shinigami, but Aizen is not sure whether Lu Li has completed this condition.

It was just a fact that Lu Jun was able to use the Shikai. He thought that this might be because Lu Li was extremely talented and he was domineeringly calling upon the power of his Zanpakuto.

This is not impossible. As far as Aizen knows, there are Shinigami who have completed their Shikai but don't even know the real name of their Zanpakutō. Or they only know half of the real name and call the wrong name, but can still use the power of their Zanpakutō.

He thought Lu Jun's situation should be similar. Although it was troublesome, it was not unsolvable.

According to Aizen's original plan, he would try using the divine body to let Lu Li complete the 'materialization' and 'subjugation' of his Zanpakutō, so that Lu Li could learn Bankai.

As for whether he could win or not, he felt that with Lu Li's fighting talent, there should be no possibility of failure.

But now...

"Then give me a try?"

Lu Li perked up, he knew what the Divine Body that Aizen was talking about was. Wasn't this the 'Divine Body Transformation' that was developed and perfected by Urahara Kisuke in later generations? It was this that Ichigo Kurosaki learned Bankai.

"It's better not to give it up..."

Aizen looked at Lu Li helplessly, "Mr. Lu, your Bankai is too dangerous. Are you sure you can make it reach the 'submission' state after materializing it?"

Lu Li groaned for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll improve my strength first."

Sosuke's reminder made him realize that this was a very risky thing. Although the Zangetsu in Ichigo Kurosaki's body was also extremely powerful, Zangetsu was not Yhwach. He liked Ichigo very much and was willing to accept him.

That's why Ichigo Kurosaki was able to successfully pass Zangetsu's test and master Bankai.

And if he used his divine body to release the imprisoned demon, a monster powerful enough to kill Aizen might appear, and then it would be all over.

"Let's go the normal way. I will tell Mr. Lu about my experience in developing Bankai. Generally speaking, after a Shinigami's spiritual pressure reaches the standard, they can develop Bankai after more than ten or twenty years of training. You don't have to be too anxious."

Aizen suggested.

Hearing this, Lu Li looked at Aizen with some curiosity, "By the way, Sosuke, since you said you have some experience, then you should have mastered Bankai, right?"

One of the unsolved mysteries of Bleach is what exactly is Aizen Sosuke's Bankai. This question also troubled Lu Li, and curiosity was scratching in his heart like a cat's paw.

"My Bankai?"

Aizen smiled mysteriously, "Is Lu-kun interested?"

Lu Li nodded repeatedly.

"Then show it to Mr. Lu. Actually, you have already seen it just now, but you were just in an unconscious state."

Aizen said as he stood up and stretched his body, which had just recovered from his injuries. He slowly unsheathed his Zanpakutō from his waist, "Bankai..."

.........

A minute later, Lu Li sat on the boulder with a depressed look on his face, like a salted fish that lost motivation after satisfying its curiosity.

"Sosuke, how long did it take you to learn Bankai after practicing it?"

After seeing Sosuke's Bankai, Lu Li returned to the main topic.

"To be precise, it took about two months."

Aizen said that actually, his spiritual pressure when he was in the Shinō Spiritual Arts Academy was already enough to start learning Bankai, but at that time he focused on training the basics and did not develop Bankai.

Moreover, his Zanpakutō's Shikai ability is already powerful enough, so he doesn't pay much attention to the power of Bankai.

Later, Lu Li disappeared during the mission. In order to increase his strength, he wanted to go to Hueco Mundo to confirm Lu Li's life or death, so he learned Bankai. After all, Bankai can increase the power of releasing spiritual pressure, which has a huge increase in strength in temporary battles. But now he doesn't pay much attention to Bankai. After all, he has realized that the god of death has a limit. If he can break through this limit in the future, he won't need the power of Bankai.

And if he was stuck at the limit of the peak of the Shinigami's spiritual pressure, using either Shikai or Bankai would not allow his spiritual pressure ceiling to continue to increase, and Bankai would be even less meaningful to him.

"It's really a horrible record. I'll try my best."

Lu Li sighed and said that it would take a normal Shinigami more than ten to twenty years to learn Bankai, but to be honest, those who could learn Bankai were not normal Shinigami, they were all geniuses as defined by Soul Society, and were captain-level Shinigami.

And it only took Sosuke two months to learn it, which was truly an incredible talent.

Lu Li was not discouraged. Although he was aware of the problem of imprisoning the demon, he believed that there would always be a way out, and he now had a new idea for unlocking the Bankai.

At present, he believes that there are only three ways to achieve Bankai, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

The first is the method he thinks is most likely to achieve the goal. Although it is just his intuition, he has noticed a hint in the detailed introduction on the Demon Prisoner for a long time.

That is to use his own soul to feed the imprisoned demon. It is marked above that this method can greatly increase the growth of the imprisoned demon, but it is also extremely dangerous, so he should use it with caution.

Therefore, Lu Li had never used his own soul to feed the prisoner demon before. Anyway, he felt that it would be the same to slowly chop people to make the length. Not to mention whether using his own soul to feed it would have dangerous consequences, Lu Li could not accept the fact that his soul might be defective after feeding.

Because of this, although Lu Li felt that this path was the easiest to take, he would not take it unless it was a life-and-death situation.

The second way is to do as Sosuke said, to slowly grind and continue to improve his strength. When he reaches the fifth level, he may be able to use Bankai forcefully. However, it is still unknown whether this method will work.

Considering the length of time you stay in this world and the penalty for your main quest, this method seems to be the worst option.

The third way is the method that Lu Li suddenly came up with after what happened just now. It is also related to his previous experience in the space. For the time being, he does not have a precise idea and can only take it one step at a time.

"Li, what happened? Are there any enemies here?"

At this time, Nilu flew over from afar and was very surprised to see the mess here.

Dongdechaka and Peixue followed behind Nilu and exclaimed in shock as they watched the tragic scene on the battlefield.

Because Aizen told her the coordinates, Nel easily found the two Hollows, Donde, Chaka, and others. However, she didn't expect that a big battle would break out here just a few hours after she left.

"It's nothing, we just did some little experiments."

Lu Li explained.

Aizen put on his clothes and said, "Then I'll leave Hueco Mundo to Lu Jun. I can't leave the team for too long. We can communicate about the follow-up situation through the things you gave me."

"Sosuke, see you later."

Lu Li knew that Aizen was not a person who would procrastinate, so he did not try to persuade him to stay. He would have many things to arrange after returning to Soul Society, and he could not stay in Hueco Mundo forever. Sosuke would definitely find a way to clear a way in Soul Society first.

By that time, he would have finished his work in Hueco Mundo, and Aizen would be ready, so he could return to Soul Society without any worries.

"Li, aren't you going back with your friends?"

Seeing that Aizen had already set off, Nel looked at Lu Li with some confusion. She had been wondering if she would not see Lu Li after she came back, but it turned out that the other party had no intention of going with Aizen.

Xiao Wu, who had just landed behind Ni Lu, also looked at Lu Li, waiting for an answer.

"Because the situation in Soul Society is quite complicated, it is not easy for a missing person like me to go back for the time being, so I will be active in Hueco Mundo for a while."

Lu Li said, brushing off the dust on his body, "If you don't mind, we can continue to act together."

"Of course I won't mind."

Nilu said with a smile, and patted Dongdechaka's round head again, "Dongdechaka, Peixue, don't you agree?"

The virtual being that possesses rationality is closer to humans, and all creatures that are close to humans, without exception, hate loneliness.

Of course, Nilu was happy to be able to act together with new friends she had made.

"Don't rush to agree."

Lu Li also glanced at Ulquiorra as he spoke, "Same here, Ulquiorra. You should first listen to what I plan to do in Hueco Mundo before deciding whether you will stay or go."

“No matter what Mr. Lu decides, I just want to stay by your side until I understand what the heart is.”

Xiao Wu's tone was calm. It might be more accurate to say that he wanted to stay with Lu Li just because he wanted to see Lu Li's behaviors that he couldn't understand.

"Li, what are you going to do?"

Nilu was a little confused.

The wind blew through the gray sand and dust, lifting the purple-black energy remaining in the air, brushing across the corners of Lu Li's clothes, like a blooming dark purple flower, and then dissipated with the wind behind him, turning into a misty purple mist.

Facing the spirit breeze of Hueco Mundo, Lu Li said to Xiao Wu and Ni Lu solemnly: "I want to rule Hueco Mundo."

"Ah? Li, do you know what you are talking about?"

Ni Lu was surprised and looked at Lu Li as if he was a fool.

Xiao Wu was very calm. He just thought Lu Li's new plan was very interesting. He now felt that he understood the definition of "boring" and "interesting".

"I said I want to rule Hueco Mundo."

Lu Li repeated, "I'm serious."

Whether it was Sosuke's request or his status as a pioneer, he would gain many benefits by unifying the Hueco Mundo, which would be beneficial to his subsequent actions.

"But Li, have you forgotten that Bylergan was chasing you before? Although you may be unhappy when I say this, you are no match for Bylergan, and I don't want to see you use desperate means to defeat Bylergan."

Nel said worriedly, "Can't we live peacefully in Hueco Mundo? Why do you want to be the king of Hueco Mundo when you're a god of death?"

"There are many reasons, I will only tell you the ones that are meaningful to you. If Bylergon is overthrown and I rule Hueco Mundo, it will become more orderly. At least Bylergon's previous massacre of the Nihilistic Mundo by his army will not happen again."

Lu Li explained, "For this reason, I want to recruit some more rational partners."

Before Ni Lu had the chance to argue with Lu Li, Xiao Wu beside her spoke first, "Mr. Lu, if you want to find a powerful Hollow, I know a place where there may be a Vastold-class Hollow."
