Chapter 57 - Soul Cloud

Leo slowly stood up started reviewing all the memories of the body he was in but found that he didn't have any, his mind was completely blank as a new baby. The people surrounding hold out their swords toward him without speaking anything.

Leo after thinking about the situation a bit started to shook his head and seat down again on the ground and raised his hand and started talking: Mister is this soul society? An uncle with a sword wearing black cloths told me I will go to soul society now.

The guard didn't react at all, soon 3 people came out of the crowd, Leo seeing them was stunned Oetsu Nimaiya, the creator of Zanpakato, Kirio Hikifune the creator of artificial soul and lastly Ichibe Hyosube the monk who call the real name or something truly unique about him was that he was the first shinigami ever and from what Leo remember from the same era as the soul king. Hope already in action completely hid all his memories making it impossible for anyone to discover the real truth about him.

Seeing the three royal guards the subordinated which were clad in completely black color cloth with a black color mask on their face back off giving them space to come forth.

Ichibe Hyosube looked at the indifferent body who was giving emitting the same power wave as a very old entity that he remembers from the past but before he or anyone else could speak a wave of energy come forth from the palace of Soul kings knocking everyone down. Ichibe was confused as to why the soul king would react in any way, Soul King was first entity which was created by nature when the Hollows originated into the world of the living, Soul kings story was very sad, he helped and protected the humans and souls giving them the future possibility to develop and grow under the protective bubble of his but what the humans and souls did in return was extream, the ancestors of the 5 novel clans of the society at that time were just simple humans who have gotten special powers, all 5 ancestor's of those clans came together and made a decision, they all combining their powers attacked the Soul King trapping him inside a crystal via which they controlled the power of the soul king created 4 verse, Soul Society, the Human world, Hell verse and lastly Hueco Mundo. Soul King was turned into a living battery but the clans were still not satisfied with this fearing that one-day Soul king will break out of the seal and destroy everything, they started their plans to make him powerless cutting both his hands and legs and ripping his heart out. Making the soul king completely powerless and defenseless the ultimate battery which can go on for eternity and maintain the balance. The soul king still thinking about well being of the lower form of life allowed them to do as they please, he didn't stop anyone.

Leo feeling the Powerwave was also confused as to why the soul king would release his power wave now because as per the story he remembers the soul king always stayed in deep sleep. Seeing this as an opportunity Leo repeated himself but this time he jumped onto Ichibe Hyosube while acting like a small child: Grandpa monk please save me, These people are trying to hurt me.

Ichibe was still distracted by the power wave from the soul king when someone jumped on him, hearing the little kid in front of him speaking in such a manner he was very surprised. He laughed loudly and asked: Where did you come from brat?

Leo still hugging the old monk: I don't know. the last thing I knew was an old uncle wearing black clothes he touched me with his sword and then I was here.

Ichibe after listening to them found it weird but then he hears a voice, a voice which was audible only to him: Bring him to me.

Ichibe without wasting any time took the child hugging him and went into the soul king's chamber. The Soul King still in his crystal opened his eyes a little and looked at Leo then reclosed them.

Unlike Leo's expectations, Soul King still had his heart with him not making his completely disabled.

Soul King spoke out to Ichibe again: Train him, for the future depends on him.

Ichibe hearing this was stunned but then regained his composure and looked at Leo carefully, other than the weird weak energy omission he didn't see anything special about the boy. He has since the beginning knew the powers of the soul kings and have seen them so he knew that the 5 ancestor's seal was anything but a joke against soul king but it was only because of soul king who chose to stay dormant and create a balance in the world, thus when Soul King today told him to train the boy and his prediction of a calamity he knew something big is going to happen.

Ichibe nodded and bowed a little meanwhile, Leo who was staring at the soul king was talking to him in his head.

Soul king: I am one of the generals who fought under your master, I was told that you have damaged your soul thus you were sent here. Don't worry I have instructed him to teach you. Soul law is a fragile concept, Understand it and make a weapon for oneself is another. You must first understand the law of souls. Then you can on your own create your weapon. Learn from them and their experience. My time as we both know will come to end in the next 900 years more or less so you must complete your training by then and then absorb my powers to heal your soul completely. My energy is degrading slowly, I want to do one last act for my master before my time is up, Now go I must entire my slumber again or humans will fell fear from me again.

Leo without saying anything just bowed toward Crystal of the old king and looked at Ichibe who was staring at him inspecting every single part of his body. Leo smiling said: Grandpa monk, this uncle said I can leave here with you. Sorry for the inconvenience.
