The battle between the Hokages and Gotei 13 didn't last long. Before most people could even react, most fights had already ended. The result was no surprise: the strength of the Hokages was overwhelming.
Even with their newest addition, Naruto, all the Hokages swiftly crushed their opponents. Ryan was particularly busy. After defeating his opponents, he moved on to assist the Hokages in other areas. The duration of each battle was remarkably short, and wherever Ryan passed, the opponents were already down on the ground.
At this point, Ryan only needed to release the King of Hell and use its authority. The Shinigamis would then become his loyal subordinates, completely controlled by him. In this way, Ryan easily took control of everyone in Gotei 13.
He couldn't help but feel emotional. "The Naraka path is too tempting," he thought. "In terms of manipulation of human emotions, Resurrection or domination of souls. It is the strongest!"
Using the Naraka Path brought many benefits beyond just avoiding the need to kill. For instance, once the opponent's soul was dominated, they would completely surrender to the user. Their personality and abilities would remain unchanged, but their loyalty would be unwavering.
Ryan could sense that this would bring significant rewards. With the help of Ywhach and many members of Gotei 13, any rewards Ryan sought would come quickly.
After controlling the souls of these people, Ryan and the other Hokages gathered together. At this time, they looked upon the disarray of Gotei 13 with satisfaction.
A blue screen notification appeared in front of every member of the chat group.
[Ding! Mission completed!]
[Three missions completed, Shinigami World Saga completed!]
[Everyone will return to the chat group space after a week.]
Hearing the system prompt in their heads, everyone's eyes brightened. This mission was completed much faster than the previous one. They initially thought it would take a long time, but the Hokages' strength had grown immensely. The Shinigami had no chance to fight back and were crushed swiftly. The task was completed quickly, much faster than expected.
With seven days left before returning to the chat group, the Hokages were excited. They remembered how they collected a lot of valuable items in Pirate World during their last mission, earning at least 100,000 points each. They had never seen so many points before.
Similar to the Devil Fruits in Pirate World, the Zanpakutō in this world could be brought back for points, as explained in the previous chat group. Seven days were enough to collect many Asauchi, and being within Gotei 13 made it even easier to grab the Asauchi. Many felt they could accomplish this in just a day or so.
In addition to Zanpakutō, there were various troves of knowledge about souls and combat in this world that could be taken back and exchanged for points. Of course, if they didn't want to redeem points, they could keep the items for themselves.
At this time, everyone looked at each other.
"It's up to each of us!" Ryan said.
Hearing Ryan's words, the Hokages sprang into action. Tobirama's figure vanished instantly. The speed of his Flying Thunder God technique was impressive. Moreover, Tobirama was very interested in the Zanpakutō of this world.
Last time, collecting Devil Fruits in the One Piece world allowed him to develop several new ninjutsu, significantly increasing his strength. This time, he was certain the Zanpakutō would be just as beneficial. With excitement, he departed, unleashing all the chakra in his body.
While the others were also interested, their main motivation was the points they could earn. Therefore, their actions were not as enthusiastic as Tobirama's. Minato, too, activated his Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared. Everyone else followed suit, running around Gotei 13 to collect items like Zanpakutō.
"Lord Ryan!"
At this time, only Ryan remained stationary. Voices surrounded him—Aizen, Captain Yamamoto, and Yhwach. They all stood before him, looking at Ryan respectfully. Due to his spirit control, these formidable leaders were under his command.
"Okay, you all go and collect as many Asauchis as you can," Ryan ordered.
"By the way, is there someone named Ōetsu Nimaiya here?" Ryan asked.
If he remembered correctly, Ōetsu Nimaiya was the creator of all the Zanpakutō. Finding him would undoubtedly yield significant rewards.
"He is the creator of Zanpakuto, and he is in Team Zero," Yamamoto said respectfully.
"Okay, take me there," Ryan nodded.
There are many things I want, Ryan thought. In addition to the existing Asauchi, I want Ōetsu Nimaiya to make some for me! I don't know how many he can create in a week, but it will be enough to put a huge gap between me and the other hosts!
Ryan then looked at Aizen. "By the way, I also want all the treasures in Hueco Mundo. Take your men and collect as much as possible."
Listening to Ryan's order, Aizen lowered his head without hesitation. "Yes! I completely obey your orders!" he said before disappearing instantly.
Next, Ryan made a similar request to Yhwach. "There should be some good things in your Wandenreich. After all, thousands of years of accumulation is no joke."
After giving his commands, Ryan followed Captain Yamamoto to Team Zero. Meanwhile, the others set out to complete their tasks.
Tobirama quickly shuttled between the rooms of Gotei's 13 members, finding many treasures, especially from the quarters of the noble families.
