8 Benefits

Previoiusly . . .

"Don't worry I wasn't planning to have you as my subordinate. I don't need a coward as a familiar!" Yon stab the birdbrain's head. "Devourer's Gluttony!" Shhmmm!!!!

Activating one of his Zanpakuto skills. He devoured the enemy just like he did last year to that Arrancar that attacked them.

But the spirit energy coming from the devoured spirit beast was not enough to give him what he needs to enter the real Saint Realm.

Once Yon finished devouring the beast, he of course have some expectations.

According the to spirit beast himself, if he could Yon he would be able to breakthrough to the next realm and based on the strength the spirit beast possess which is the same as him. Wouldn't that mean that if the roles was reversed, he too would have a breakthrough?

Confused, he checked his own strength and was surprised to see it still in pseudo-Saint Realm! It didn't even budged at all. Yon have no idea why.

'You must be confused why you haven't breakthrough to Saint Realm right? I might have an idea, why don't you reseal me back to normal form so you'll understand?' he heard Kuryujin's voice.

Following his Zanpakuto/martial spirit's advice, Yon cancelled the Shikai and soul transformation at the same time. With a simple intent, the black dragon scales dissolved into black black smoke in the air as well as the ragged black cape. His sword's length became shorter along with the handle as it turned into two black strings with bells at the end.

'Try to sense your spirit energy.' Kuryujin once said once again prompting Yon to follow.

Yon's eyebrow raised in more confusion. "So my strength double in the peak 10th order Grandmaster Realm but that was not enough to breakthrough to the Saint Realm? Why?" Yon asked.

'Well I'm not sure if this will satisfy you. But according to the wuxia novels you've read in the past, which I re watch for detailed martial arts manuals or techniques, there are a two reasons.' Kuryujin calmly said and waited for Yon's reply.

"Go on, I am listening."

'Well according to the novels to become a Saint realm expert, one needs a certain amount of space law comprehension, as well as battle qi cultivation which on your case would be spirit energy.'

"Does that mean I have to further understand both my martial talent which is related to space law and that the spirit energy I currently possess, which is by the way doubled of what I had, is still not enough?"

'I am not against you? But yes, you are correct on that assumption. Also, I think its an only fair requirements based on the benefits you'll get!'

"What benefits? Besides the obvious longer life span and ability to fly? Although Geppo lets me sail through the air, it ain't flying."

'Well, obviously it is as you mentioned but besides that there are also other benefits. Once you become a saint realm expert. something like gaining a body immune to poisons and hard as steel which is a formidable physical defense, as well as healing ability, akin to having an immortal body.'

Hearing his Zanpakuto, Yon was even more adamant to go to the demon world and breakthrough to the Saint Realm and reach a strength needed for the upcoming events in 2 years time.

Rukia should be visiting Karakura town once Ichigo turns 15 years old by then. He was even considering going to the Shino Academy and learn a bit of their fighting practices called Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Hoho and Kido.

Just having modern Kendo under his belt won't be enough anymore when facing high level Shinagamis, Vizards, Arrancars or Aizen's Espadas, Fullbringers and finally Quincys. Especially if the battle he'll face will all be to the death. That was when Kuryujin spoke again.

'Speaking of being immortal, usually a Saint expert will have a Saint realm space which is equivalent to a second life in their core. Must be why you need a space law comprehension to store your soul inside. And the only way to kill a Saint realm expert is to destroy the soul, which would be impossible if its hidden in a space and not in your body. However if and only if it is destroyed, it will be impossible to rebuild it.' Kuryujin emphasized the last part.

"I get it. Just like a mentioned long ago. Longer life span and somewhat immortal but can still be killed within reason. But once I've attained far greater strength, who would even be able to destroy my soul?" Yon clenched his fist, all this information excites him and gives more encouragement to reach even greater strength.

From a loner fresh grad who fails interview after interview to an expressionless youth whose parents was told to have died the moment he was born. Then from a beginner cultivator boy to a fully fledged cultivator man after avenging his parents by killing those soul reapers only to discover more about his nature and becoming another by accident touching a sword.

He was a cultivator/exorcist with a bit of Soul reaper powers. What is he even called now?

Ichigo also had 3 powers in him, namely Soul reaper from his father, Quincy from his mother and hollow from the hollow that attacked his parents. Smirking Yon thought a question, 'I wonder if I can have a spar with him once he becomes a substitute shinigami?'

Somewhere in Karakura Town a certain orange haired teen was fighting a few other teens his age or older. "Achooo!"

[Bam!]

"Oww that hurts! You damn moron, can't you see someone was thinking about me!? I'll kill you!" a few moments later and all his opponents were lying on the ground unconscious.

Front/exit Gate

Exorcists have gathered around the headless bodies of the elders. They have covered them with clothes and put their heads on their respective bodies but sadly it will not bring them back.

Yon's master, Elder Himiko and Elder Jozzu of the treasury department were in the vicinity giving orders. Some expert were frantically running around after receiving orders from them while other waited for their own orders.

Exorcist from student to expert levels were all currently mourning. But soon they felt a very strong riatsu, this was one of the two riatsu earlier however this was twice as strong as before. Clearly the fight between the two was over and the one who won was now coming to their location.

[Whooshhh!!!]

The air blew and a figure landed near the Elders but the ground was not destroyed. Yon, after reaching the grandmaster realm have more control over his spirit energy. Which meant more control towards the skills he created before achieving his Zanpakuto.

The exorcists present in the location looked at the youth. He was wearing a tattered white robe uniform which a first year's robe during class or soul form. Only one question was inside their minds. 'Was it really that possible for a student level exorcist to have such strength? He was stronger than anybody present at the moment.'

Without holding back Yon exerted his riatsu a bit. Except for his master, all others present were forced to kneel or drop on the ground with their butts.

"Hear me exorcists! I am Tokisawa Yon, Son of Tokisawa Mei and Jian Chen. My parents whom you enslaved for 13 years instead of letting them reunite with their son. I have the strength to rule over all of you or destroy your home. Give me one good reason why I should rule and not annihilate all of you for your mistakes?" His riatsu was now coated with the killing intent he so far developed in killing enemies. The exorcist were all helpless in his riatsu's presence with killing intent.

Then his master who was not affected walked near him and said.

"Dear disciple, how can they answer you if you won't let them answer? Good control by the way, I am not affected even the slightest."

As if understanding his master's words, Yon cancelled his riatsu and waited for an answer.

"Well?" asked Yon clearly wanting an answer.

"I don't think they are brave enough to answer. So let me answer in their stead." Himiko persuaded to which Yon relented with a nod.

"Based on your strength, you don't need anything from the Clan anymore which is also why you said that you'll destroy it. If my guess is correct then you would probably be going to the spirit world. . . no you've been there. You're going to the demon world to become even stronger, are you not?"

"As expected of my master, truly a smart person but you still haven't answered my question. Why shouldn't I destroy this Clan that enslaved my parents for 13 years?"

"I do have a few good reasons. One, this was once your mother's home and she have some relatives still present. Two, the Clan can take care of your parents while you are away. Three, you can use an inscription enslavement for the experts who will be in charge of their safety so you won't need to worry about them while getting stronger."

"Relatives are family by blood. But family who watches their family member suffer without helping or even contributes to their suffering might as well be strangers passing by each other!"

"But your 2nd and 3rd reasons are good enough for me." Yon stated in all seriousness but screaming on the inside.

'All this act of being tough is burning away my youth!'

'Stop complaining and arrange your parent's accommodation! I want you to reach the Saint Realm as soon as possible!' Kuryujin demanded.

'Why are you more adamant than me in breaking through anyway?'

'Hehe, you'll know when you actually become successful on entering the next realm.'

Yon hardened his expression then shouts a command. "All expert and master level exorcists! Come near my location, now!"

Contrary to his expectation none of the exorcist moved immediately. Some were gritting their teeth in denial, some were confused and some were mostly afraid. But a brave soul stood up in defiance, clearly an expert level based on his strength.

"Why should we even listen to a kid like you? No matter how strong you are, your still a student in this Clan! You should be grateful to it and honor it bec-"

Bang!

The expert's head burst cutting off whatever speech he was saying. They all looked in horror at Yon whos hands were out, specifically his middle and index fingertips was still smoking and pointed at that expert.

[Magnum] one of the variation of spirit gun he used against grand fisher.

"Anyone else want to join him? or will all experts and master level exorcist finally come near my location? Don't even try to hide your strength, I can sense it even with your spirit energy concealment." Yon warned.

'You can?' Kuryujin asked.

'I obviously can't. It's a bluff, but an effective one. Hehe.'

A few hours later

Yon enslave all expert and master level exorcist in the Clan along with the elder of the treasury department. Except his master, who was totally not that of a threat to him. Not just because she was his master but just like what the other elders said before he killed them. Elder Himiko doesn't care about anything else but her inscriptions.

He arranged his parents who were still asleep and unconscious on a new residence available at the moment. He didn't bother waking them up after placing them under the same room together.

Beside them was another bed with a little girl whom Yon also saved along with his father. He still need to ask his old man about it, but it can wait.

Over all, the exorcists were all busy rebuilding the destroyed buildings. Both remaining elders were in charge of the current situation since Yon was not at all interested in it. He assigned 4 experts to become the new elder replacements.

They were of course under those departments so they are already aware of the jobs they need to do to keep the Clan going. While he himself became the Clan head. But he plans to pass that to his mother once she recovers.

Her mother's seal on her body was lifted by his master while her relatives who didn't die on the fight were all imprisoned by Yon's order.
