As the night passed Khan used the time to talk with the girls. Khan said, "Apacci, Mila Rose, Sung-Sun I want to congratulate you for completing your task."
Khan then used Shadow Reach to pet all three of their heads. Three solid shadow arms stretched from Khan's body to touch them, after the initial shock they found that they enjoyed the feeling, Khan then received a new notice.
[Notice seeds have been planted in the following:
Emilou Apacci
Franceska Mila Rose
Cyan Sung-Sun]
Khan could feel the emotions of those three and realized something else. Khan retracted the arms then he called Harribel over and told her to place her head in his lap. She was hesitant but still did it, after she settled her head Khan began petting her head. Then he received another notice.
[Notice a seed has been planted in Tier Harribel]
While Khan petted Harribel he felt the sensation she felt could be shared among anyone with a seed. That gave Khan ideas for the future, he then decided to use Shadow Sight to see what the captains were up to, he found they were starting a meeting he decided to listen in.
There are 12 captains standing, waiting for Head Capyain Yamamoto to arrive, the air is tense. The air grows even heavier as Yamamoto arrives, then he speaks saying, "I thank you all for arriving so promptly that being said, we have a major issue on our hands!" The others remain silent as Yamamoto continues, "Two Vasto Lordes and three Adjuchas made it to our doorstep without anyone noticing. Worse yet we lost track of them almost immediately after they arrived. I want an increase in patrols around the gates, and Captain Kurotsuchi! I want your squad dedicated to finding out how they made it here without us noticing, you have your orders, remain vigilant, now go." With that the captains left the room with different responses to what happened, but two of them seemed both amused and intrigued by it.
Khan was not surprised that Yamamoto was upset by recent events. He had some time before morning, he figured to ask the system some more questions. Khan started with, 'can my inventory hold living things?'
[No, it cannot, I would recommend the skill Shadow Pocket, it is an active skill that allows you keep living thing in a suspended state.]
Khan then asked, 'why does the shop currently only hold skills and personnel use items?'
[The shop is limited by what you have, you don't have any territory, you don't have access to your armies, what you currently have are four followers in-training.]
Khan heard that and asked, 'what does followers in-training mean?'
[They are followers whose loyalty you have, and are currently under the effects of Corrupted Love, you are capable of molding their personalities to suit your whims.]
'How far along are they?' asked Khan.
[Emilou Apacci 5%
Franceska Mila Rose 5%
Cyan Sung-Sun 5%
Tier Harribel 3%]
Khan saw the numbers, and realized that any interactions with them, once a seed was planted would shape how they would act and view him. Khan also learned that positive thought also included involuntarily emotions as well or at least in theory. He figured he could test it with Kukaku or Yoruichi considering they both don't trust him; they would be the perfect test subjects for that.
Khan then decided to check the Council 46 to see their reactions, and not surprisingly they were arguing about who was at fault for allowing himself and the others getting to there. Khan decided to check Fate's Plan and found the main plot remained largely unchanged, only thing that's certain is the plot that drags Ichigo to the Soul Society has been delayed. With the Hogyoku in Khan's possession and when Aizen learns that he wondered what, would be the reason for Rukia to be dragged here and sentence to be executed. Khan figured that watching Aizen might lead to some answers, thankfully Shadow Sight could distinguish between one of his illusions and the real him.
Aizen was there talking with Gin, they had planned on leaking information to the council to drag Rukia back so they could extract the Hogyoku, but the presence of the Hollows had delayed that plan. So, they figured finding Khan, and his crew quickly would be best for getting everything back on track, Aizen was excited to meet them if they could invade the Seireitei and survive they might be worth having in his army.
Khan mused over what Aizen said, then thought the changes that would happen, he wondered how Ichigo would handle it then an idea pop into his head. Khan asked, 'Does Ichigo have plot armor?'
[Yes, despite any changes you make, the plot of the world will find a way to progress, your actions may cause certain events to happen out of order or you may change the fate of a side character, but unless you directly interact with the main protagonist, their story will proceed as expected.]
Khan thought about what that meant and how it would affect his plans going forward. Finally, morning arrives Kukaku gives a brief tutorial on how everything was going to work. The Hollows get the hang of it fairly quickly. As they step inside the tube Kukaku says, "remember once your business is done you better show the proof of my brother's fate, or I will kill you." Khan simply said, "understood."
They get ready as the cannon fuse is lit. The cannon goes off and they hit the barrier with full force. As they break through the barrier, everybody in the Seireitei is stunned by the explosive entrance made by the intruders.
Khan used his Shadow Reach to make sure none of them were scattered while they crash to the ground. Upon landing Kukaku splits off saying that she had business to attend, and she'll meet up later. Khan after turning a corner is greeted by the sight of Rangiku Mastsumoto.
Before she could react, Khan used his Shadow Manipulation and froze her, while Rangiku had a look of terror, Khan admired her body, before manipulating her to walk away. Khan then asked, "Yoruichi where is the area controlled by squad 5?" Yoruichi hesitated then said, "that woman is a part of squad 10 so we'll need to go this way."
After navigating the streets for 20 minutes they arrived in an opening and came across a group of people that consisted of Sajin Komamara, his Lieutenant Testsuzaemon Iba, Kaname Tosen and Kenpachi Zaraki. Only one word came to mind when Khan saw who standing in his way, 'Shit!'
Khan looked at his opponents, as three captains and a lieutenant was not good. Khan tried to use his Shadow Reach to punch all four of them, Komamara and Iba dodged while Kenpachi simply blocked it and slid back a few feet, Tosen took it head on and went flying into a wall, mostly because Khan had frozen him place.
Khan immediately said, "Harribel you take the tall one in the helmet, Apacci, Mila Rose, Sung-Sun take the guy with the flat top, do not underestimate them." All four of them said, "understood!" Khan immediately drew his Shadow Blades and focused his attention on Kenpachi who, was all smiles. Then Kenpachi said, "So, it's going to be just you and me, this is going to be fun!"
