Fire Dragon Transformation: Costs 1 Imperial Point.
It's quite expensive, but since it's considered an enhancement of bloodline abilities, Aizen could understand it.
After the half-price discount, it's 500, which is still affordable.
A series of stat increases directly consumed 14 points of "Actor Value".
"This is"
Kiyohime, being the person involved, was stunned for a moment, and then, able to clearly feel her own transformation, she immediately...
She shifted her gaze to Aizen, a faint blush creeping across her face as she murmured, "I just offended you, Lord Aizen, but I never expected you to be so magnanimous."
Because of the strange changes in Kiyohime's appearance, Aizen was in a bizarre state and didn't notice the subtle changes in Kiyohime herself for a while.
Suddenly, dense spiritual pressure fluctuations emanated from the surroundings.
Aizen turned his head slightly and whispered, "So there's Adjuchas this time? Looks like we'll have to produce even more experimental materials."
"Hiss! Daring to disturb my time alone with Lord Aizen, such a malicious enemy should be burned to death by Kiyohime!"
I wrote 1,300 words this morning and then fell asleep. I even had a cup of coffee in between, but I just couldn't stay awake any longer.
Chapter 128 Feedback from Bloodline 4/10
In Aizen's perception, there were at least three Adjuchas among the Hollows who attacked this time.
Of course, in his eyes, neither Kylian nor Adjuchas were any different from cannon fodder; they were things he could crush with a little force.
"Two Grim Reapers?"
"Was the spiritual pressure that disappeared earlier killed by you?"
"It's obvious at a glance, isn't it? How dare a mere Grim Reaper be so arrogant?"
"These Grim Reapers are my food, no one is allowed to take them!"
"Hmph, let's see who has the best skills."
"However, with so many Hollows dying before, these Shinigami must be formidable. We must all be careful."
A dozen or so intelligent Gillian began chattering and stared greedily at Aizen and his companion, though some of these Hollows were wary of him.
However, Aizen found this vigilance utterly ridiculous.
Before Aizen could even begin to clear out the Gillian, whom he no longer valued, Kiyohime, whose expression inexplicably darkened, volunteered: "Three, two, three!"
"Let Kiyohime handle these guys."
"Okay, move a little faster."
Aizen chuckled and agreed, acting as if nothing was wrong despite being surrounded.
"Damn it, how dare he look down on us!"
A serpentine gilian roared and emerged, opening its bloody maw to bite Kiyohime.
"A hideous monster."
Looking at the Hollow with a large hole in its snake tail, Kiyohime waved her paper fan with a look of disgust.
Wow.
A crimson fireball shot out with a roar.
"Nani"
The snake-like creature was startled and quickly changed its posture to dodge.
But he had only made half of his movement when he saw a barrage of fireballs crashing down.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The bursts of fire from the explosions even forced back the other Void creatures that were about to come to their aid.
Aizen was not at all surprised by this outcome.
In her human form, Kiyohime has low stats and her main fighting method is throwing small fireballs; however, her magic power is not high.
Now that his magic level has increased significantly, he didn't hold back at all and threw it out; it would be strange if a Gillian didn't die.
As the flames gradually subsided, the remaining Gillians exchanged glances and charged forward in unison, while only four Hollows with unusual auras remained calmly observing from the sidelines.
In a short time, close-quarters combat, Cero, and other similar abilities became commonplace.
Surprisingly, Kiyohime managed to stop these members of the Security Forces simply by using her human form.
However, Aizen wasn't surprised by this.
Just like the so-called level, it's impossible for all basic attributes to be the same.
Think about the characters in Naruto. If their strength is equal, their basic attributes are definitely lower than those of the pirates, but that doesn't mean their combat power is inferior to that of the strong pirates.
Almost all of them, plus a lack of combat experience at the agile level, still possess the strength of a vice-captain.
These Kylians weren't some kind of powerful level 5 warriors with special abilities; they were extremely brutal, and Kiyohime's agility was more than enough to handle them.
However, the more important reasons are not just these. After all, even the mindless Gillian have spiritual pressure at the vice-captain level. These intelligent Gillian, if not stronger than the vice-captains of the Shinigami, are at least equal in terms of rating.
More importantly, Kiyohime's strength without a Noble Phantasm: Noble Phantasm Strength: Base Attributes: Strength +, Endurance +, Agility +, Magic +, Luck Abilities: Berserk, Fire Dragon Transformation, Tracking, Flame Kiss, Noble Phantasm Reincarnation: Fire Samadhi. Let's first explain the number "+".
The concept of a number.
If the assumed value is 10, then it would be 20, 30, or 40.
According to the Type-Moon lore, many people believe that the plus sign represents doubling, but this is both true and false.
Because of this, the +60 is achieved, and the attribute value exceeds 90 points, approaching the level of "Type-Moon".
These values don't simply refer to multiples.
Because that would only be five times the strength. Assuming someone has the strength of a thousand jin, then it wouldn't just be five thousand jin of strength. In the story of the Tang Dynasty, let alone Li Yuanba, even Pei Yuanqing, who has the strength of ten thousand jin in both arms, would reach a certain level in terms of strength. Obviously, it can't be calculated like that.
Note: Those below the system's "Level 1" are considered ordinary people, referring to a comprehensive rating rather than a single attribute, hence there are no such categories.
In Type-Moon, the minimum requirement for a Heroic Spirit is that they exceed the limits of humanity, so the individual attribute data of a Heroic Spirit is somewhere between that of an ordinary human.
The data for "a thousand jin on the head" refers solely to arm strength, not the punching power generated by leveraging force or technique, nor to leg strength. Therefore, it exceeds the current record limits for ordinary people and falls within the scope of [specific data].
This 10 is actually similar to a level.
For example, when talking about games.
and.
The difference cannot be summarized simply by saying it's twice as much.
In some games, this ten-level difference may be less than double, while in others it may be far more than double.
The method used to count Heroic Spirits here is clearly the latter.
While it's true that the plus sign doubles the value, it doesn't mean that the plus sign will make the value 60 or exceed that. It only means that the value is doubled from a practical point of view. Moreover, this so-called doubling only applies to the base attributes; it has nothing to do with whether the Noble Phantasm or skills are doubled or not.
Frankly speaking, even a relatively weak vice-captain of a high-level powerhouse would not be able to achieve an average level of above in terms of basic attributes.
Unless they are pirates, the strongest disciple, or other powerful individuals born into a world where strength is based on physical power.
Now Kiyohime's power is doubled again. Under normal circumstances, even without using his Zanpakuto, the vice-captain's base stats after Shikai are really no match for Kiyohime.
This "+" was clearly not given to her by Aizen; the system directly levels her up by spending money.
This situation clearly occurred after Aizen upgraded Kiyohime's Fire Dragon form, meaning that the improvement in her bloodline boosted the basic attributes of Kiyohime's human form.
However, it originally possessed "dragon attributes".
Kiyohime has the lowest stats among Heroic Spirits except for Agility, and her Dragon bloodline provides no bonus to her human form.
In other words, the dragon bloodline that Kiyohime originally possessed was not a true dragon bloodline. It was merely a power born out of thin air from obsession, something that existed only in the air, rather than something that was truly integrated into her bloodline.
From another perspective, this also proves the power of the dragon race; even the lowest-ranking Eastern dragons would not have a bloodline level lower than that.
This incident not only surprised Aizen, but also gave rise to a strange and audacious idea in his mind.
If he upgraded Kiyohime's dragon form before enhancing her attributes each time, wouldn't he be able to save half the attribute enhancement cost? At the same time, the acting points spent on the fire dragon form wouldn't be wasted at all.
This definitely enhanced Kiyohime's transformation power.
Just as he was calmly calculating, a reckless Kylian quietly broke away from the encirclement and crept towards him.
"Hahaha, got it!"
A long tongue shot out with a boastful, triumphant laugh, but the laughter quickly came to an abrupt halt.
An incredibly hot, super-sized fireball engulfed it.
"How dare you! Roar!"
Boom!
The update is a bit late; I was experiencing some writer's block while writing this chapter.
I found a table here that says the "+" sign means doubling the instantaneous burst power. I think "instantaneous burst power" is a bit inappropriate, since "+" goes too far.
Therefore, I've made some minor modifications based on my own understanding, so if you already know this information, please don't ask questions based on it.
Chapter 129 Noble Phantasm Unleashed, Suspected Nnoitra 5/10
"Roar!"
A pure white tail swept across.
boom.
Except for the Gillian that was smashed to pieces by the giant fireball, all the other Gillian were shaken away by Kiyohime's enraged sweep after she transformed.
Immediately afterwards, Aizen saw Kiyohime fly out in anger.
With a single bite, he opened his sharp teeth and killed one Hollow; his actions were primitive and brutal as he proceeded to slaughter three more Hollows in succession.
If Aizen hadn't been able to see a shred of rationality in her eyes, he would have almost thought Kiyohime had gone berserk.
Although it's not much different from a rampage now...
However, "it finally looks somewhat like a dragon; it's no longer the coldness of a snake, but the resounding and domineering presence of a dragon."
With a smile, Aizen quickly pointed out Kiyohime's shortcomings.
Kiyohime's strength increased dramatically after transforming into a fire dragon this time. Even without considering her Noble Phantasm, she reached the level of an entry-level captain, even considering the opponent's D-rank counter.
However, after killing five Kyrians, she never succeeded again.
"Watch out, that woman isn't Death!"
"Scatter! Coordinate the attack with all your might! This level 15 monster can't be taken down by any one person alone."
"Aren't you going to make a move yet? There are a few over there!"
"We must join forces this time, otherwise, no matter who dies next, the survival rate of the others will decrease."
Aside from being caught off guard at the beginning, these Kyrians took timely countermeasures, cooperating with each other as much as possible despite not being considered allies.
In fact, this kind of cooperation was very crude. At least in Aizen's view, he didn't even need to use a few words to break this fragile trust.
However, there is one thing he has to admit: unlike the Grim Reaper, although Hollows do not have millions of years of cultivation heritage, almost every Hollow has fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
They don't possess any mysterious or wondrous techniques, but they have incredibly proficient combat experience.
Therefore, Kiyohime was quickly bogged down.
Even though the opponent was struggling to hold out, several of their Void creatures were severely injured.
If it were any other novice-level Shinigami captains, like Ikkaku Madarame who had just learned D-type attacks, or Renji Abarai, they could easily crush these Gillian.
In this regard, we can only let Kiyohime grow stronger through repeated battles.
However, it was clear that Kiyohime had lost the desire to continue playing at this point.
Kiyohime, preoccupied with Aizen's orders, was now furious, flames spewing from her mouth and nose. In order to end the battle quickly, she gradually transformed into a massive, deep blue flame dragon, exuding a deadly aura as she breathed fire.
"This is!"
"So strong."
"Luckily, I didn't join in the attack."
"Damn it, this sense of threat."
The four Adjuchas, who had been watching coldly, suddenly changed their expressions and whispered, their bodies tensing up as they felt an instinctive tremor and a sense of suffocation.
