I am officially become unique Adjuchas hollow that walk the hollow realm at the time.

My look somewhat changed, first I become taller with bulkier build as my muscles so compact that my bare punch could create sonic boom.

My height was around 230 cm and my wingspan was 5 meters, my skull mask become more define and my nail become razor sharp.

Baraggan Louisenbairn was one of oldest hollows in central plain because he knows how to pick his fight, as when Quincy army start to hunting them down.

Even thus he was strong he never picks battle with Quincy and after Yamamoto and his Shinigami start the massacre, killing everybody in their way.

He stays away and so he could see another night in the desert of the hollow world.

He is the embodiment of senescence; he could age anything to death with his power.

Everyone is equal in the face of passage of time, so his power can kill any one and with his power.

He became the god-king of the hollow world, but with all his power, even he could feel that something scarier than death is trapped in there with them.

Unleash in the hollow realm and with every passing day become stronger and with one small mistake he could be the next victim, so he starts to build an army and surround himself with stronger hollows, but he could feel that it was not enough so he sends his army to recruit stronger hollows but he gives them no choice in that matter, they could join his army or die.

Later on, after spending 528-year fighting, cultivating, and meditating.

Finally, I reached my limit of second stage (Adjuchas) hollow spiritual energy cultivation.

In addition, for promotion to solid core or third stage (Vaste Lorde) and last stage of hollowfication and next stage of evolution, I need to temper my shell under pressure and add skeleton guard for my wings and body and halo in my head in these past years.

Time becomes irrelevant for me as there were not many Adjuchas, Vaste Lorde may be Between 500 to 2000, and if I start killing them soon no one would leave.

Seeing that there was no other way, I went for a plan B, did mostly my meditation and cultivation in solitude, and changed my soul with the property of the grace that I had.

The process this time was without any pain but the method was different.

At first, a white cocoon built around me and put me under a magnitude of pressure.

I could feel that I am shrinking and my white shell is falling and the head piece of my helmet (hollow mask) is removed and my hair is finally free and I start to formulate human skin in my hand and face but my skin is even harder than my white skeleton guard.

After spending six months being in that cocoon. I was finally free so after adjusting to my new found power and trying some of my skills, which my radar range increases its radius to 2000 kilometer so I could see the entire central hollow world.

I did not need to fly over to see what is happening, and after the new scan, I find even a few things buried in the hollow world.

There were 1532 blank spiritual swords (Asauchi) that do not have a master so I gather them all and stash them in my underground palace.

A great elder tree that was alive in the hollow world, I was stunned at that discovery.

I flash (fast movement technique) to its location and going near it, even from afar I could feel that it was old like ancient old.

going up close, I could feel that it wants me to touch it so I did as I could tell she saying hello.

Dante "Hello ancient one" I could feel his happy feeling like we resonate with each other in that moment.

Great elder tree: "HHHH AAAAA MMMMM"

she starts to glow and as the earth beneath starts to shake but after a moment everything was changes.

the great elder tree replaces the glowing seed in the crystal casing and its stays in the palm of my hand and glows flickering with my heartbeat.

A few moments thinking about what I just witnessed, I could feel emotion from that seed she wanted to help me start a new life as she sends me intuition that it is the seed of the tree of life, after gently lifted near my core, it flew in my core.

Going back to my palace at the edge of the central hollow world. I go to my meditation room and start to adjust my plans on how to achieve the next stage of cultivation without outside help I thought to myself.

'From what I observe, when hollows absorb other hollows, if one of them dominates others with his regret and overcomes theirs, after that Gillian's collection of hollows become Adjuchas, one individual that compresses all their soul energy.

From Adjuchas to Vaste Lorde must fight and consume their spiritual energy and conquer all Adjuchas to become Vaste Lorde and start to come to terms with their regret and losing part of his mask that hidden his individual personality.

To evolve to Arracard they must start to overcome his regret and remove his or her mask and become the human they once were and put themselves as an animal trait as a weapon to defend themselves in their way.

However, because of all the grace that I have I do not need to overcome any regret. Nevertheless, I need weapons and I could use blank soul weapons to make something new.

I knew that Oetsu Nimaiya, creator of zanpakuto, can feel all blank swords.

So before going to soul realm, I don't want to let him find out who I am.

pondering over what I would need for my long journey through a different world, I could think a Ring was good or maybe even two rings should be enough. to be continued.

WAGING WAR

Sun Tzu said: In the operations of war, where there are in the field a thousand swift chariots, as many heavy chariots, and a hundred thousand mail-clad soldiers, with provisions enough to carry them a thousand LI, the expenditure at home and at the front, including entertainment of guests, small items such as glue and paint, and sums spent on chariots and armor, will reach the total of a thousand ounces of silver per day. Such is the cost of raising an army of 100,000 men.

When you engage in actual fighting, if victory is long in coming, then men's weapons will grow dull and their ardor will be damped. If you lay siege to a town, you will exhaust your strength.

Again, if the campaign is protracted, the resources of the State will not be equal to the strain.

Now, when your weapons are dulled, your ardor damped, your strength exhausted and your treasure spent, other chieftains will spring up to take advantage of your extremity. Then no man, however wise, will be able to avert the consequences that must ensue.
