As I was thinking, "Uhh my head, where am I?"
I looked around and I was shocked because I was standing in the window of a goddamn skyscraper and as if it isn't ridiculous enough, the goddamn skyscraper was standing sideways and not just that, I was in a huge metropolis of thousands of skyscrapers standing and looking like this.
When I looked at my reflection in the window below me, I couldn't help swearing because what I saw was not my reflection, but the reflection of a person that I knew very well, or rather a sword spirit that I knew very well.
I AM LOOKING LIKE DAMN ZANGETSU!!!
I was undoubtedly looking at Zangetsu, about 1.75 cm tall, with pale skin, black sclera, yellow eyes, blue tongue, and a young but handsome face.
A deep voice behind me said, "I see you're awake, hollow."
Behind me stood a tall, thin, scruffy, middle-aged man with dark hair, orange glasses.
It was none other than Yhwach.
"Who are you, old man?"
I asked, though it was more of an order than a question. I needed to find out what was going on right away, although I had a pretty good idea of what was happening, I needed to understand what the man in front of me knew about my situation and what he was planning to do about it. The best way I could think of for this was to pretend to be ignorant. While I was thinking these things, the old man said;
"My name is Zangetsu, Ichigo Kurosaki's zanpakuto."
"Oi, stop lying old man I'm Zangetsu"
"Yes you are, but Ichigo doesn't need to know that, hollow." I went crazy when he said it.
"Bastard, what do you mean 'he doesn't need to know this'! Who are you to decide that?"
"As I said, I am Zangetsu and as Ichigo's zanpakuto spirit I decide this."
"Son of a bitch, why is your insistence on stealing my place?"
"I want to protect him."
"So you're saying that I can't protect him!?"
"You can't protect him from him."
''Who's him?''
''Yhwach''
"Who is he and why should you protect Ichigo from him?"
"He's me thousand years ago and the father of the quincy's."
"Okay, what's this guy's problem with Ichigo?"
"Ichigo has enormous potential and he wants to destroy the shinigami, so I couldn't let Ichigo become a shinigami.
"Stop the bullshit, suppressing his strength won't protect him, it will only make him another cannon fodder. Besides, as you said, Ichigo has tremendous potential and ability, even if you suppress his power, he will still not be an insignificant piece of garbage, which I will not allow. So what are you going to do, you need a better plan than that, old man."
"I don't know, I don't know what to do," he said in a defeated and helpless tone.
"I may have a plan in mind, but I'm sure neither of us would like it."
"What is your plan?" he asked in a hopeful voice.
"You will introduce yourself as Zangetsu, as you tried to do in the beginning, and I'll introduce myself as a bloodthirsty, psychopathic, war-maniac monster trying to take over his body, but the plan will begin when he let go of the shinigami's power and awake his own power."
"Looks like it's not bad but why and why not now?"
"Because a human thrives under the most pressure, and I can't think of a better motivation and pressure for Ichigo than a monster who wants to take over his body, especially when that monster threatens to hurt those he loves with his body. As for why not now, we can't communicate with him while the shinigami's power is in him, by the way, we will only give him new techniques and only when he deserves them.
"I see, it's a good plan, but what will we do if his strength isn't enough in danger to protect his life and beside this he won't trust us anymore when we tell him the truth."
"I know, but that's the best plan I can think of, as long as he doesn't die in danger, it's fine, but if he's in really bad shape, I'll help him, you know his hollow powers aren't for nothing."
"Okay, so what about the quincy powers?"
"They will be trained after he master the shinigami and hollow powers, if he focus on too many things at the same time, he won't be able to focus on all of them, resulting in a half-baked product and this will prevent him from reaching his full potential."
"Okay, then I look forward to working with you, Zangetsu."
"Me too, old man."
