"Huh?"
Upon hearing Fang Mo's explanation, Kurosaki Ichigo was completely dumbfounded.
Just after Fang Mo mentioned the matter of the Substitute Shinigami Badge, Ichigo's brain was already struggling to keep up, and then Fang Mo spoke a bunch of things he couldn't understand, leaving Ichigo even more confused.
"I remember, it should have been Urahara Kisuke who helped you awaken your Shinigami powers, right?"
Fang Mo looked at Kurosaki Ichigo, and asked cheerfully, "When you were in the spiritual realm, did you see a man who claimed to be Zangetsu, and then your spiritual realm was collapsing into countless boxes, and he told you that your Shinigami powers were hidden in those boxes and asked you to find them?"
"How... do you know?"
Kurosaki Ichigo was completely astonished, as he thought he hadn't told anyone about this.
"I have a friend, called Yhwach, also known as the God of Knowledge and Omnipotence," Fang Mo said. "So, whether it's matters of the Soul Society or about you, I'm fully aware."
"Is that so?"
Kurosaki Ichigo nodded, half believing and half doubting.
"Anyway, you've been tricked, young man," Fang Mo said with a smile looking at Ichigo: "Those boxes indeed contained your Shinigami powers, but the red Quincy vein, that's the power you inherited from your mother... the Quincy power."
"The reason I say he is Yhwach, is because Yhwach is the ancestor of the Quincies, and all the Quincy powers in the world originate from Yhwach."
"For this reason, your Zangetsu takes the form of Yhwach and also possesses a part of Yhwach's memories. He knows how strong his true form is, so in order to protect you, to prevent you from becoming an enemy of his true form in the future, he has been deliberately suppressing your Shinigami powers."
"The power you are using now is just the tip of the iceberg of your Shinigami powers that he could not suppress."
"This…"
After hearing Fang Mo's explanation, Kurosaki Ichigo was as if struck by lightning.
"Of course, the Yhwach within you... is actually also a part of your power," Fang Mo continued: "If you can try to persuade him, then you will be able to use the powers of the Hollow, Shinigami, and Quincy simultaneously, breaking all your limits and protecting everyone you wish to protect."
"I... am really that strong?"
Kurosaki Ichigo looked down at his hands, somewhat bewildered.
"I told you, you're like a cheat."
Hearing this, Fang Mo laughed and said: "Your original Shinigami and Hollow powers have been suppressed by your Quincy power, and what you can use is just a leak of that, and even that leak has been 80% suppressed by the Substitute Shinigami Badge. Honestly, considering how much you've been nerfed and still can achieve Bankai, I even want to call you a cheat brother."
"Cheat brother, what is that again…"
Kurosaki Ichigo opened his mouth, intending to say something, but then Fang Mo suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Hmm? Wait a moment, someone is coming..."
"Eh?"
Kurosaki Ichigo was momentarily stunned and asked, "Is there someone else here?"
Fang Mo ignored him. As the master of both the Pure White and Dark Spaces, he had indeed sensed someone opening the quartz door from the outside. With a thought, he directly opened the entrance in front of himself.
And then, in the next second.
Tatsuki Arisawa, Orihime Inoue, and Yoruichi suddenly appeared.
"Classmate Inoue? Tatsuki?"
Kurosaki Ichigo was startled and asked, "And Miss Yoruichi? How did you all get here?"
"So, you have already been training?" Yoruichi glanced at the large pit not far away and the somewhat disheveled Kurosaki Ichigo and said, "Originally, I came to train little Orihime with the Shun Shun Rikka, but on the way, I saw Tatsuki Arisawa, so I brought him along as well."
"Mr. Fang Mo."
Tatsuki Arisawa took a step forward and then immediately assumed the position of kneeling and bowing deeply to request, "Please, take me with you for training as well."
"Why do you all like to kneel and bow so much?"
Fang Mo also held his forehead and said, "It's not that it's impossible... But I remember that for this posture, aren't you supposed to strip off your clothes and stack them to the side before bowing deeply?"
"What?"
Tatsuki Arisawa was clearly stunned and asked, "So... should I strip?"
"Uh, never mind that for you," Fang Mo shook his head. "For men, just prostrating fully is enough. Oh, right, Orihime Inoue, do you want to join the training too?"
"Eh?"
Orihime Inoue was immediately dumbfounded.
However, before she could react, Yoruichi suddenly pulled her into her embrace and said somewhat seriously, "Hey, you, if you're going to tease, don't target this child. She's very innocent..."
"Haha, I'm just teasing you guys."
Fang Mo laughed nonchalantly, "I, the Pure Love God of War, would at most brag a little but will not lay a hand on you... Hmm, okay, let's have a look at the Shun Shun Rikka first."
"Okay."
Orihime Inoue obediently took off a hairpin from her hair and handed it to Fang Mo with both hands.
"Hmm..."
Fang Mo took it and glanced at it briefly.
The original Shun Shun Rikka was a snowflake-shaped hairpin with six petals resembling ice crystals. However, due to damage from a previous battle, one of the petals was damaged, turning the hairpin into a structure with only five petals.
Fang Mo initially intended to use the power of the Master of Dimensions to forcibly repair this item.
But since 'spiritual power' is not an original setting of the pure white space-time, and given that Fang Mo had only recently acquired these two dimensions and was not yet adept at many of their powers, he quickly failed.
So, Fang Mo thought for a moment.
And then, he took out his Craftsman's Geochest.
Upon opening the chest, a complete set of MC (Minecraft) craftsman equipment appeared in front of him.
This included a large number of iron felts, enchantment tables, bookshelves, and a series of Tinker' Construct workbenches, of course, along with a bunch of materials made real, such as redstone, lapis lazuli, and diamonds, among other things.
"Hm? What's this?"
Yoruichi was also surprised to see this scene, recognizing that these items were used for making various weapons, and she couldn't help but say, "These items... So, you make your weapons yourself?"
"I am the Pure Love Sword King of Fandou Street, the lifelong enemy of Grandpa Niu."
As Fang Mo spoke, he summoned Steve and took a gold ingot the size of a grinding plate from him, then used a gravitational field to press it into a washbasin.
"Talking nonsense again..."
Hearing Fang Mo's ramble, Yoruichi rubbed her forehead in a headache, "Anyway, how do you plan to fix this?"
"Just shut up and watch."
Fang Mo said, and then, controlling Steve, he took out a moss ball and right-clicked a bookshelf not far away.
The moment the moss ball touched the bookshelf, Steve's experience instantly dropped by ten levels, and at the same time, the moss ball emitted bursts of golden light, turning into Repair Moss in the Tinker' Construct.
Repair Moss, as the name suggests.
It's a kind of enhanced attribute similar to the original version's experience repair.
As long as you wrap an item with Repair Moss using the Tinker' Construct tool assembly table, when the player absorbs dropped experience, the item will also absorb experience and thus repair its own durability.
Fang Mo took advantage of the situation to raise his hand, and Steve handed over the repair moss.
A white light flashed, materialization was activated, and Fang Mo's hand now held a sticky mass of golden-green moss.
Holding the repair moss in one hand and a Shun Shun Rikka in the other, Fang Mo announced, "Next, is the moment to witness a miracle!"
After saying this,
Fang Mo pressed his hands together above the tool assembly.
With a squelch, the repair moss instantly smashed together with the Shun Shun Rikka.
Accompanied by the splashing of green pulp, a large amount of moss had already wrapped around the Shun Shun Rikka. Then, a large amount of moss was forcibly merged into the Shun Shun Rikka, the originally crystal-clear blue crystal began to slowly be tainted green, resembling a plastic bucket full of chlorella.
"Ah, this..."
Seeing this scene, the crowd also showed a dazed expression.
However, Fang Mo did not care much about this. The Shun Shun Rikka quickly merged with the repair moss, indicating that the 'experience repair' attribute had been successfully applied.
So, next.
Fang Mo took out a large bag of essence berries.
Then, in front of everyone, he poured these essence berries into the golden washbasin, crushed them into a mush with a gravitational field, turning it into a sticky yellow-green paste.
However, as is well known, the taste of essence berries is terrifying.
Even Captain Jin Ken La, who treasures gold as life, trembles non-stop while eating this stuff.
Quickly, Yoruichi, who had the best sense of smell among the crowd, couldn't stand it and took several steps back, covering her nose: "Ugh...my God, what is this smell!?"
"...The smell of a crawler?"
Fang Mo tilted his head in thought; there indeed was such a phrase associated with essence berries.
"Disgusting." Yoruichi, holding her nose, asked, "What are you doing with this basin of stuff? Planning to take revenge on society?"
"By the god of Minecraft, Notch, from today on, I, Fang Mo, will no longer do evil deeds."
Ignoring Yoruichi, Fang Mo continued speaking, then suddenly grabbed the Shun Shun Rikka and pressed it into the washbasin: "I'm going to wash my hands with essence, and from now on, retire from the world..."
"Hey, hey, isn't the word you used a bit off?"
Upon hearing Fang Mo's reasoning, Yoruichi's face couldn't help but darken: "Don't bully me for not knowing that tale from another country. Shouldn't it be about 'washing one's hands of a matter' instead?"
"How so?"
Fang Mo looked up to retort: "Isn't this basin made of gold?"
"You..."
Hearing Fang Mo's words, Yoruichi also felt a tremendous headache and rubbed her temples. Indeed, the basin Fang Mo was using was made of gold, leaving her at a loss for words: "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
"Is it my fault that you can't differentiate the specifics, or yours?"
Fang Mo spread his hands.
"You..."
"Orihime, it's fixed." Before Yoruichi could erupt, Fang Mo interrupted her, then lifted his hand to reveal the verdant Shun Shun Rikka beneath.
