Hollow Training

The plume of dust cleared, revealing Ichigo standing there looking at them menacingly. Urahara noticed that a lot of things have changed for Ichigo.

For one, he had donned his Shinigami attire again. But this time it was far different from the one he wore before.

The top half of Ichigo's new shihakusho was pure white. He had two black X's on his wrists and an X marking on his chest. He also had black markings circling his neck. There were also red beads tied around his chest. The dark red Demon Slayer Mark was visible if you looked at the left side of Ichigo's neck.

Ichigo had a black cloth belt tying around his waist.

However, the bottom half of his shihakusho was black in color. But the most noticeable thing about him was the two giant curved claymores he was carrying on his back.

[Claymore 1]

[Claymore 2]

There were some white cloth and some needles on Ichigo's shihakusho. Ichigo quickly grabbed them and threw them away.

"Ichigo?! Can you hear me!" Urahara called out. Ichigo didn't answer. Instead, he stared them down.

Ichigo walked towards them, prompting Urahara and the others to be on guard. Ichigo arrived in front of Urahara and stared into the shopkeeper's eyes.

Urahara widened his eyes when he looked into Ichigo's eyes. Ichigo's had bright golden-yellow irises, black pupils and black scleras.

'The eyes resemble a Hollow's eyes. What happened to him?' Urahara asked himself.

"Hey. Can you move out of the way." Ichigo asked him.

"Oh, sorry!" Urahara apologized and moved out of Ichigo's way. Ichigo went towards his physical body which was lying on the ground. He returned back into it.

Ichigo stood up and patted his clothes.

"Are you okay?" Urahara asked him. Ichigo looked at him with his brown eyes.

"I'm feeling better now that I have my powers back." Ichigo smiled a little. Urahara nodded.

" Alright, let's get started with the third lesson! Which is, learning your Zanpakutōs name—

"Already done that, now get out of here. I want to train." Ichigo waved Urahara off.

"Eh?" Urahara was confused. Ichigo looked at him.

"Do you want me to throw you out of this room? Come on, move it! I don't have time to play with your games! " Ichigo did the shooing motion. Tessai and the others hastily got out of the room.

"Are you sure you know what you're doing?" Urahara asked him with a serious face. Ichigo sighed and started walking away.

"Don't kill yourself while we're gone, Ichigo!" Urahara shouted while Ichigo was walking away. Ichigo shook his head.

"Unless it's about Aizen, This guy can never be serious." Ichigo grumbled and his body was surrounded by a white glow. He changed into his Shinigami form again, but this time he didn't get his soul pushed out of him.

Ichigo looked at himself. "I have work to do. I must get Tessai to teach me Hadō and some Bakudō. But for now, I have an experiment." Ichigo grinned to himself and raised his right hand.

"Seki." He muttered and a light blue orb generated on his palm. He then slammed the orb onto the ground.

*BOOOOOM!!!!*

The ground in front of him was devastated. Ichigo laughed loudly.

'That's a nice technique you have there, King!' Zangetsu shouted in his mind. Ichigo grinned.

'I call it the Rasengan. It's a powered up version of the Bakudō #8.' Ichigo explained.

'How about you add more of your Reiryoku into it? Will it get bigger? ' Zangetsu asked him.

'Of course it will. ' Ichigo looked at his palm and this time, a bigger and brighter blue orb appeared spinning on his hand.

" Rasengan." Ichigo muttered and slammed the orb onto the ground.

*BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!*

The ground was immediately devastated and dug up. Ichigo heard Zangetsu cackling loudly in his mind.

[Skill learned

Rasengan Lvl 1

Uses 2% less Reiryoku when using technique.]

'Hey, King! Do you mind if I manifest in front of you? I want to talk to you face to face!' Zangetsu asked.

'Do it, Zangetsu. Whatever you want to talk about I'm all ears.' Ichigo answered back. All of a sudden, white smoke started appearing in front of Ichigo.

Zangetsu stepped out of the smoke. He had that broad grin on his face. Ichigo grinned back, knowing he had something exciting to tell Ichigo.

"You're using your abilities like you've had em for age, King! But obviously there's more than just creating blue balls and making crescent blades shoot out of your blades." Zangetsu started talking. Ichigo was listening intently.

" How about you started using your Hollow abilities? " Zangetsu suggested. Ichigo laughed.

"Of course I will. I just don't know where to start. " Ichigo answered him. Zangetsu hummed.

" Cero." Zangetsu answered simply. Ichigo nodded.

"Cero it is. " Ichigo muttered. Zangetsu grinned broadly.

"You don't need luck to master them, King! You just have to trust your instincts! I'll be back in your inner world monitoring your progress, just don't die!" Zangetsu muttered while smoke slowly covered him. When the smoke cleared, he wasn't there anymore.

"Man, why didn't the OG Ichigo like him? " Ichigo asked himself. He shook his head and started to focus on his new goal.

.

.

"This is cool." Ichigo marveled at the color of the spinning red orb on top of his finger.

After about fifteen minutes of messing around with his Hollow Reiryoku, Ichigo had created a marble sized Cero on his right index finger.

Ichigo grinned maniacally and pointed his finger at the empty space in front of him.

His irises turned golden-yellow and his sclera became black.

"Cero."

*SSSSFFFFWWOOO!!!!*

Ichigo fired a thin powerful blast at the empty space in front of him.

*BOOOOOOOM!!!!*

The beam created a massive explosion, rubble flew everywhere. Ichigo grinned at the destruction.

He heard someone clapping their hands beside him. "Bravo, King! Bravo!"

Ichigo looked at Zangetsu who was grinning madly at him. Ichigo smiled back. "I told you, King! You don't need stupid luck to get stronger! " Zangetsu pointed at the destruction in front of them.

"You see this, King! You did this! Now imagine if this is even more devastating." Zangetsu shouted at him. Ichigo nodded.

" I just need to learn how to control my powers efficiently. And I know just the people who can assist me in that department." Ichigo grinned a little. Zangetsu patted Ichigo's shoulder.

" Get on it then! We don't have time to just stand here!
