It's not like there aren't some Zanpakutō in Bleach that can turn invisible.
Another Zanpakutō that can become invisible is "Nijigasumi" from a thousand years later. Its owner is Ichinose Maki, who was originally a member of the 11th Division. Later, because the 10th Kenpachi was killed by Zaraki Kenpachi, he betrayed the Shinigami and joined the Bounts.
Of course, this is all later.
Although both of these Zanpakutō have the ability to become invisible, the principles behind them are completely different.
Nijigasumi uses the refraction and reflection of light to create the effect of invisibility.
Kyōmotsu is purely about eliminating one's own existence and reiatsu, making it impossible for others to see oneself no matter what.
However, according to Chigiri, as long as he takes the initiative to attack, the invisible state will be broken, which is suitable for a one-hit kill. When he was an assassin in the past, he often coated his sword with poison, secretly became invisible, stabbed the opponent and ran away quickly.
Even if the stab does not hit the vital point, the enemy will die from the poison.
Although this ability is strange, it will become useless once the enemy becomes a huge army.
He was likely to die from various AOE damage, which was why he did not use stealth to deal with Yamabuki at that time.
At that time, the gap in strength between the two was too great, and these little tricks were completely useless.
While the two of them were talking, Nobutsuna was thrown from a distance like a bowling ball and hit Chigiri directly.
"I...you're crushing me! Get up quickly!" Chigiri climbed up from the ground with difficulty.
Yamabuki was slightly stunned. Who could beat this guy so hard?
When I turned around, I saw Unohana walking towards me with her Zanpakutō in her hand and a gentle look on her face.
It's okay!
"Who is this woman? Isn't she too fierce?" Nobutsuna got up from the ground in a very embarrassed manner. He originally thought that with his own strength, even if he could not defeat Yamabuki and the Captain-Commander, none of the other captains should be his opponent.
But he never expected that the woman in front of him was as strong as a monster. Even if he activated his Bankai, his iron body, which he was proud of, could not withstand the accelerated erosion of cause and effect.
Now that he was in charge, Nobutsuna began to slowly understand what level of monsters his colleagues were.
At this time, Uhin Zenjōji walked to the Captain-Commander, his big belly swaying.
"Captain, this time we captured the King of Hueco Mundo and used him for experiments. I have developed a substance that can store Hollow reiatsu. This ability can be used to effectively resist the invasion of Quincies. Of course, this substance is still in the theoretical stage. If we want to determine the actual effect of this thing, we must capture a few living Quincies," said Uhin Zenjōji.
Indeed, practice makes perfect.
Although everyone knows that the reiatsu of Hollows is extremely toxic to Quincies, the exact extent of the harm can only be known after practice.
However, these Quincies come and go without a trace, and it is impossible to find them, let alone capture them.
Moreover, the world is so vast that it is not easy to find traces of Quincies.
Yamamoto also knew that it was a little difficult to capture Quincies alive, so he directly pushed this task to Yamabuki.
Isn't that what chiefs of staff are used to do?
At the request of Yamabuki, Uhin Zenjōji showed everyone his new creations.
It was a grenade-like object that would break into pieces if you squeezed it hard.
"Don't underestimate these powders. They contain the reiatsu of Hollows. The power of us Shinigami has a certain restraint on Hollows, so even if we inhale a small amount, it won't have any effect. But it's different for Quincies. The reiatsu of Hollows is highly toxic to them, and their bodies will react as long as they inhale a small amount. I have sprinkled these powders throughout Seireitei. If a Quincy dares to come in, there will be an adverse reaction immediately. Of course, all of this is just based on theory. To know how serious the reaction will be, we need to use live Quincies to do experiments."
Yamabuki nodded slightly. At least this plan sounded feasible.
"How many Quincies do you need as experimental samples?" asked Yamabuki.
"The more the better. If only one person is used to conduct the experiment, there is a high probability of accidental results, so provide as many Quincy samples as possible." Uhin Zenjōji raised an extremely difficult question.
"Yamabuki, I'll leave this matter to you. Is that ok?" said the Captain.
Yamabuki stared at the captain with an unhappy face.
If I say there is a problem, will you push the work to someone else? Isn't it thrown on my head after all the rounds? It's better for me to take on this work directly.
"Okay, leave it to me. The last time we found traces of Quincies was in the human world. Tomorrow I will bring people to the human world to check it out. If we catch a Quincy, we will bring him back directly and investigate their headquarters at the same time." Yamabuki said.
As The Art of War says, if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.
Now, the biggest problem for the Shinigami is that they don't understand the enemy at all. Most of them have never seen what a Quincy looks like.
How can we fight the war if this continues?
Therefore, Yamabuki decided that this time he would go to the human world not only to capture experimental subjects for Uhin Zenjōji, but also to let the Shinigami better understand the Quincies.
"Okay then, I'll choose a few people to go to the human world with me tomorrow morning," said Yamabuki.
After the captains had enough fun, they went back to their homes and agreed to come back tomorrow.
As the time for the war draws closer, I, Yamabuki, feel the pressure on me increasing.
After seeing off these captains, Yamabuki felt a little hungry. After all, he had waited for such a long time and had consumed a lot of energy.
After thinking for a moment, Yamabuki suddenly smiled. What should I do if I'm hungry? Of course, I should have a midnight snack!
Of course you have to eat something light late at night, let's barbecue!
In the past, his favorite thing was to go out with his classmates in the middle of the night to eat barbecue, but unfortunately, this activity seemed to not exist in Soul Society.
Moreover, grilled skewers are called "Yakitori" in Japan. The "bird" here does not refer to a real bird but actually refers to a chicken.
On the contrary, the number of types of skewers depends entirely on how many parts of the chicken there are. Chicken heads, chicken necks, chicken hearts, chicken livers, chicken intestines, chicken legs, chicken wings, and chicken breasts can all be grilled!
But Yamabuki's favorite chicken feet were actually lost?
And isn't this kind of kebab too shabby?
The meat on the skewers must be in large pieces so that it will be more enjoyable to eat.
Yamabuki took out a piece of pork belly that he had stored before, cut it into large pieces, and roasted it on the iron plate. The oil splashed everywhere, and then I sprinkled it with cumin and chili powder. It was so fragrant.
As a result, when he turned around, he found that the captains who had already left had come back at some point and were staring at him.
"This kid actually dares to eat alone! Beat him up!"
"It's also wrong for me to have a midnight snack! Yamedie!!!"
