As you know, it was Tier Harribel, but the author made an error instead it was Cirucci Sanderwicci, But I edited it out for ya guys.
---
Three days later.
The secret laboratory under the Research and Development Bureau.
"How is it going?" Shinji walked in, looking at Cirucci Sanderwicci lying on the bed, seemingly unconscious.
Behind him, Nelliel followed.
Shinji had already been here for three days.
During this period, to prevent Matsumoto Rangiku from becoming anxious due to his prolonged absence.
So Shinji occasionally went out to prove that he hadn't disappeared.
But most of the time, he stayed here to observe the experimental changes in Tier Harribel.
As expected.
The evolution process had been very calm, seemingly without major problems.
"It has entered the deep fusion stage." Mayuri Kurotsuchi sat at the research lab table, his eyes bloodshot, staring unblinkingly at the cells in front of him.
To not miss even the slightest change, he had maintained this state for three whole days.
"Hmm..." At this moment.
A faint murmur came.
Cirucci Sanderwicci, with her eyes closed, slowly opened them, Her gaze was slightly bewildered, and her skin appeared overly pale, as if she were anemic.
"She wake up?"
"It seems the frequency of sleep and awakening is accelerating now she falls asleep about once every hour."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi immediately lowered his head to record the data again, as well as the current state of the cells.
"How am I now?" Cirucci sat up, frowning and clutching her head, speaking somewhat weakly.
In the past few days.
She had become increasingly tired.
It was quite funny, wasn't it, an Arrancar feeling extremely tired and sleepy.
Most importantly, Cirucci could clearly feel herself becoming very weak.
Her strength had probably decreased by more than half.
This change made her feel very uneasy.
"Don't worry too much, your cells are currently in very good condition."
"The fusion rate with the Freshman cells is approximately 60%."
"It is normal for you to feel weak now." Mayuri Kurotsuchi said without lifting his head, while flipping through the data in his hand "The fused cells have released an extremely strong Reiatsu, The New Reiatsu and the existing Reiatsu in your body are mutually repelling, which is why you are experiencing your current condition."
"Once the cells are fully fused and evolution is complete, this symptom will disappear."
Hearing this.
Cirucci's breathing quickened a bit, She looked at Mayuri Kurotsuchi and asked "New Reiatsu? Will that Reiatsu be the Vasto Lorde's Stage?"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi looked up at her, revealing a sinister smile "Currently, the Reiatsu exhibited by your Freshman cells is somewhat similar to Vice-Captain Nelliel's Reiatsu. "
"Once the fusion is complete, you will most likely to evolve into a Vasto Lorde."
"Captain Shinji's experiment have been successful."
As he said this, Mayuri Kurotsuchi's eyes couldn't help but show joy.
As long as this experiment was completed.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi could prove that he was the most brilliant Scientist, completely surpassing Urahara Kisuke.
"Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi, the results haven't completed yet, so it's best not to be happy too soon." Shinji shook his head, then reached out and threw something over.
"This thing is.. a seal?" Mayuri Kurotsuchi glanced at it and asked curiously.
Why would Kuchiki Shinji give him a seal? Was something sealed inside?
Mayuri Kurotsuchi's eyes were filled with a probing look.
But next.
Shinji's words made his eyes change slightly "Inside, there's the corpse of an Arrancar, but he was once a Vasto Lorde, He chose to actively degenerate to an Adjuchas in order to evolve more perfectly."
"By the way, he's also a Scientist, the best researcher in Las Noches."
"Ho ho, a Scientist, huh? To actively degenerate to an Adjuchas, he must be a madman."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi's face split into an exaggerated grin.
"He was once Vasto Lorde, it seems he will be a very interesting experimental subject." His eyes were staring with interest at the seal in his hand.
"Since it's already highly probable that the experiment has no problems, then I'll start too."
The powerfully built Gantenbainne stood up, saying with a determined look.
"Can't you endure a few days of waiting?" Shinji looked at him and asked.
Beside him, Nelliel rested her head on Shinji's shoulder, also looking at this Arrancar whose expression was slightly anxious and excited.
"Yes, I can't endure it." He tugged at his collar.
Gantenbainne looked at Shinji "Please, conduct this experiment on me too."
"Like Cirucci, as long as I can continue to evolve, I'll do anything, whatever you want."
He couldn't endure it.
"There's really nothing useful I can do with you." Shinji sighed, then took out another glass vessel, The light blue substance swirling inside firmly attracted Gantenbainne's gaze.
After throwing the "potion" condensed from the Hōgyoku's power to Mayuri Kurotsuchi.
Shinji stood up and waved his hand "I'll leave this to you, Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi."
Shinji and Nelliel disappeared from the laboratory.
It was also time to show up in the Tenth Division otherwise, that woman Matsumoto Rangiku causing a fuss would also be a troublesome matter..
-Tenth Division, Captain's Office.
"Yo, Rangiku, still here." Shinji pushed open the door and walked in.
"Captain Shinji, does your conscience truly not hurt? I'm working hard here helping you, but you go out to Slack and don't even take me with you." Matsumoto Rangiku complained.
She also wanted to go out and slack off with Shinji.
But her heartless Captain only took Nelliel everywhere all day long.
And Nelliel, like a shadow, followed Kuchiki Shinji every step of the way, as if she couldn't wait to stick to Kuchiki Shinji.
Speaking of which.
Could Nelliel be in love with Captain Shinji?
Matsumoto Rangiku's gaze suddenly became strange.
Especially, when she saw Nelliel, who was so close to Shinji, still reaching out to grab Captain Shinji's coat, her expression became even stranger.
No way!
Nelliel a Vasto Lorde, a Great Hollow, actually fell in love with Kuchiki Shinji?
It seems.. it's not entirely impossible!
Think about it, Nelliel is clearly so indifferent to outsiders.
But as soon as she switches to Kuchiki Shinji, she immediately reverts to her sweet, obedient, gentle, and lovely self.
Could such a thing really be happening right under my nose?
A Vasto Lorde and a Captain-level Shinigami, who is also the future head of the Kuchiki Clan and Captain of the 6th Division.
Can the two sides really be together?
And, if they really were together, what would their children look like?
Matsumoto Rangiku rolled her eyes, her expression gradually turning dangerous, and an unsettling blush appeared on her face.
"Rangiku?"
"Matsumoto Rangiku?"
"Are you alright?" Shinji reached out and waved his hand in front of her eyes.
"What are you doing, Captain Shinji?" Matsumoto Rangiku playfully slapped away Shinji's hand.
"What were you thinking about just now? You seem a bit off." Shinji looked at her suspiciously.
"I just zoned out for a bit, don't ask so many questions, Girls always have some secrets, right?"
Matsumoto Rangiku pushed Shinji away, then sat back in the Captain's chair.
"You really are, not at all formal with me."
Shinji scratched his head helplessly.
Their way of interacting is nothing like that between a Lieutenant and a Captain.
"With our relationship, do we still need to be formal? Captain Shinji really has no conscience at all." Matsumoto Rangiku made a heartbroken expression, blinking at Shinji with a wronged look.
Sitting on the table.
Shinji turned his body "By the way, how has Tōshirō Hitsugaya been performing recently?"
He had been in the Human World for the past few days, and after returning, he was busy with the Arrancar evolution to Vasto Lorde experiment, so he hadn't paid attention to Tōshirō Hitsugaya for a while.
He wondered how Toushiro was doing now.
"Speaking of that, Captain Shinji, Tōshirō Hitsugaya is truly a genius!" Matsumoto Rangiku first sighed with emotion, then put down her pen and looked at Shinji "In less than a month, Tōshirō Hitsugaya has already gained a basic grasp of swordsmanship, Kido, Hakuda, and Shunpo."
"Coupled with his innate spiritual pressure, which is extraordinary."
"Even a high-achieving Sixth-year student might not defeat him."
"I heard that many divisions recently want Tōshirō Hitsugaya to join their division after graduation."
Upon hearing this, Shinji instantly stood up, his face serious, with a hint of hostility in his eyes "Which divisions are trying to recruit Tōshirō Hitsugaya?"
Don't they know that Tōshirō Hitsugaya is his chosen candidate for Captain of the Tenth Division?
If you steal Tōshirō Hitsugaya, who will be the Captain of the Tenth Division then? How will I retire and slack off?
He hadn't seen Tōshirō Hitsugaya for just a few days, and someone was already trying to poach him?
Strands of black aura gradually appeared around Shinji's body, and his expression turned gloomy.
"I heard it's the Seventh Division, Eighth Division, and Thirteenth Division." Matsumoto Rangiku said, resting her finger on her chin.
"Komamura Sajin, Kyoraku Shunsui, and.. Jushiro?" Shinji grunted.
It seems he would have to make a trip to the Spiritual Arts Academy to make them understand that Tōshirō Hitsugaya had long been designated by him as the Captain of the Tenth Division.
But before that.
Shinji looked at Nelliel "Call Pesche and Dondochakka, We've waited long enough it's time."
"Does Shinji mean.." A flicker of joy suddenly flashed in Nelliel's eyes, She gently leaned her head against Shinji, nuzzling him "Shinji is the best!"
Matsumoto Rangiku: "..."
-Tenth Division, Shinigami training grounds.
As it was a special operations division, there weren't many permanent Shinigami stationed in the Tenth Division, so most of the time, this place, which should usually be lively, was quite quiet.
Shinji and Nelliel waited here for less than two minutes.
Sensing Nelliel's spiritual pressure, Pesche and Dondochakka, Nelliel's two Subordinate, appeared before them very quickly.
"Lord Shinji."
"Lady Nelliel."
After greeting the two, Pesche's eyes were puzzled "Is there something you summoned us for?"
After creating a Barrier using the power of the Hōgyoku.
Shinji glanced at Nelliel, and seeing her gently nod at him, he continued "I've come this time because I've found a method that allows you to skip the process of slowly recovering to Arrancar by accumulating spiritual pressure."
"You can immediately return to the Arrancar now." Shinji paused.
And across from him.
Pesche and Dondochakka's expressions suddenly became excited.
"Really? Lord Shinji has a way to restore us back to Arrancar?"
"Idiot, since Lord Shinji is telling us, then he must be 100% confident in restoring us to Arrancar-class."
"Moron, of course I know that! You don't need to remind me!"
"You definitely didn't guess that Lady Nelliel could recover her power so quickly because of Lord Shinji."
"Emmm.. I really didn't guess that, but why you called me an idiot, do you want to fight?"
"Come on, who's afraid of whom!"
"You come over here!"
"You come on!"
"You come over here!"
After a long standoff, Pesche and Dondochakka, who had been bickering for a long time, suddenly rushed over, knelt on both knees, slid in front of Shinji, and bowed their heads heavily.
With a thud!
The ground cracked directly, forming a small pit.
"Since Lady Nelliel, who dislikes fighting, is willing to take up her blade for Lord Shinji and show her will to fight."
"Then we, who consider it our mission to quietly protect her, are also willing to become the blade in Lord Shinji's hand, helping Lord Shinji and Lady Nelliel kill down all enemies before them."
"As long as Lord Shinji and Lady Nelliel say to fight, then participating in the battle is our mission."
"So, Lord Shinji, please!"
"Please help us, the weak and humble, to regain our power!"
"We want to become the most offensive blades in the hands of Lord Shinji and Lady Nelliel!" Pesche and Dondochakka banged their heads on the ground, shouting loudly.
"I have received your will, get ready." Shinji nodded and looked at Nelliel.
"Pesche, Dondochakka, let's begin." Shinji walked in front of them and gently touched their foreheads with his fingers.
The next second.
Under Shinji's control, the power of Hōgyoku continuously injected into their bodies, anchored by Shinji's fingertip.
In an instant, immense spiritual pressure erupted from their bodies, spreading outwards.
The spiritual pressure surged at an alarming rate.
Arrancarization had begun!
