1 Unlimited Blade Works!  

"This body is naturally born for the sword."

"Blood like steel, resolute and unyielding; heart like glass, fragile and delicate."

"Crossing countless battlefields, never defeated, yet never understood."

"So I stand atop the Hill of Swords, intoxicated by victory."

"Throughout my life, it is meaningless."

"This is—Unlimited Blade Works!"

...

In the dormitory, Ailin opened his eyes and looked at the Zanpakuto lying on his knees.

No, now this sword could already be called a "Zanpakuto".

Touching his Zanpakuto, Ailin's emotions were inexplicable. Ailin, in his past life, was an ordinary office worker, with anime and novels being his only hobbies.

Perhaps it was a joke from some great existence, thirty years ago, Ailin reincarnated into the anime he once loved, and he also possessed spiritual pressure.

At that time, thinking he was the protagonist, Ailin enthusiastically went through hardships from Rukongai and finally successfully joined the Shin'o Academy.

Back then, Ailin was arrogant, thinking that as the protagonist, becoming a vice-captain in three years or a captain in five years, or even a captain in a hundred years, wasn't too much to ask for. But unfortunately, during the six years at the Shin'o Academy, Ailin almost failed to pass the test of the Thirteenth Division and almost became one of the countless cannon fodders in the Wandenreich Expeditionary Force.

In the recent hundred years, the war between Soul Society and the Wandenreich was intense, and the Wandenreich Expeditionary Force had become a real meat grinder.

It was only because of Ailin's Shunpo proficiency that he was accepted by the Second Division's examiner.

He never expected that, after twenty-four years of mediocrity, he would successfully conceive his own Zanpakuto. And because of his understanding of this ability, he didn't need the Zanpakuto to tell him its name and abilities. In the world of Shinigami, a name represented power!

After the completion of the Zanpakuto's conception, Ailin's spiritual pressure also increased by one rank, currently at Fifth Rank Reiryoku.

Feeling the sudden surge of power, Ailin realized that even without releasing his Zanpakuto, he was already considered "elite" among the Gotei.

"So, let's try my abilities in the Shinigami world and see how they differ from FATE!"

Ailin placed his right hand on the hilt of his Zanpakuto, and a blue light emitted from his hand, forming blue patterns that covered his Zanpakuto.

"Identify the creation concept..."

"Establish the basic framework..."

When these blue patterns completely covered his Zanpakuto, Ailin could feel the process of crafting a weapon in his mental world. With the light dissipating from his hand, Ailin entered his mental world.

Gray earth, fiery red sky, and on the edge of the mental world, there were countless flames and rotating gears.

Unlike the souls of other Zanpakuto, Ailin's Zanpakuto's mental world did not contain the manifestation of a Zanpakuto. Or rather, this entire space was the manifestation of Ailin's Zanpakuto.

Extending his hand, blue spiritual power blossomed in Ailin's hand.

"Projection—begin!"

In the next moment, a large amount of spiritual power, under Ailin's control, extended into the shape of a Zanpakuto, with blue patterns spreading across this blue spiritual Zanpakuto.

"Duplicate composition material..."

"Imitate crafting techniques..."

"Sympathize with growth experience..."

"Reproduce accumulated years..."

"Excel, complete various projects..."

The blue light dissipated, and Ailin's hand held another Zanpakuto. And the power of this Zanpakuto was exactly the same as his external Zanpakuto.

With a wave of his hand, this Zanpakuto flew in the air for a few rounds and then inserted itself into the highest peak in this space. Under the red light of the sky, it cast a long shadow...

…

Although he completed the conception of his Zanpakuto and achieved its first release, however...

Thinking of his Zanpakuto's ability and the situation encountered by a certain genius boy two hundred years later, Ailin shook his head in the end.

Soul Society does not allow two identical Zanpakuto to appear. But with the ability of his Zanpakuto, it's more than just two identical ones, isn't it?

Give me enough time, and mass-producing all the Zanpakuto appearing in Soul Society is not a difficult task.

If his abilities were known by those nobles, who knows how they would dispose of him. Before he grew up, it was better not to use the true ability of his Zanpakuto in front of outsiders. 

So, Ailin, in the Second Division, continued to slack off as usual. With tasks, he went on missions with his comrades, and without tasks, he trained in the Second Division's training ground. At night, he would also make the Zanpakuto he had recorded in his mental world.

Ailin's Zanpakuto is called "Unlimited Blade Works".

But rather than "Blade Works", it's more like "Blade Creation".

In this space, there are countless elements of "swords", as long as Ailin has the prototype of a "sword", he can create a "sword".

Moreover, the "swords" created by Ailin not only possess their own abilities but also the combat experience of their masters will be copied by Ailin.

In the current environment of Soul Society, Ailin couldn't use the abilities of the "swords" he created, but the combat experience attached to these "swords" also greatly benefited Ailin.

With each additional Zanpakuto forged in Ailin's Unlimited Blade Works mental world, Ailin's spiritual pressure would also increase accordingly.

Ailin was originally dragging the tail of the Second Division into the Gotei, and it can be said that every Shinigami in the Gotei was above Ailin in strength.

The stronger the Zanpakuto forged, the more Ailin's spiritual pressure would increase. In just a few months, Ailin's growth was several times greater than what he had achieved in his first thirty years.

On this day, Ailin had just finished forging a Zanpakuto in his mental world when he suddenly heard the sound of assembly.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The sound of a wooden hammer hitting a wooden board, three consecutive knocks in a tight rhythm, this was the signal for an emergency mission.

Without absorbing the experience in this Zanpakuto, Ailin quickly put on his clothes. Wearing a black Shinigami uniform with a hood that only revealed his eyes, he looked like a "ninja".

Walking out of the dormitory, other "ninjas" similar to Ailin hurriedly rushed to the assembly point of the Gotei.
