For a full three days, Rosse didn't leave Kurosaki Masaki.
During this time, three completely different kinds of power surged, crashed and fused inside her, playing out a never ending storm.
But when this storm finally settled and the three powers reached a subtle balance, Kurosaki Masaki not only showed no sign of exhaustion, she instead burst with astonishing vitality.
Her figure grew even taller. Her long wavy orange hair, like a waterfall, hung smoothly down to her calves and shone brightly. Her skin became soft and flawless, even more radiant than before. Her originally slightly slender figure became fuller and shapely, every inch of her curves filled with a beauty of health and strength.
After Kurosaki Masaki fully recovered, Rosse didn't hold back anything and enjoyed her thoroughly.
Before this, Kurosaki Masaki's body had been in poor condition which really left him not very satisfied.
This round, they fought for an entire day and it ended with Kurosaki Masaki fainting over and over.
After the battle, Rosse brought the completely trained Kurosaki Masaki into the sight of the people in Las Noches.
After the fusion of the three powers, even though Kurosaki Masaki had not yet adapted to her current strength, her power had already reached the A+ level.
Once the three powers continued to unfold, Kurosaki Masaki's spiritual pressure would soon reach captain level, and by then becoming one of the top five Espada would be a natural thing.
After settling Kurosaki Masaki more or less, Rosse placed all his attention back on the human world.

[Karakura Town]
Over here, he had been spending his days with Matsumoto Rangiku, wandering freely in the human world. They went to all kinds of shopping and entertainment places, which let him properly revisit experiences from his past life.
As a girlfriend, Matsumoto Rangiku was absolutely competent, at least when it came to emotional comfort and physical affection, she gave more than enough.
Even though the two of them didn't have any money at all and relied entirely on altering people's memories to shop, they didn't mind in the least.
In a way, Matsumoto Rangiku wasn't exactly a good woman either.
After all, a big sister who drinks too much and slacks off couldn't be considered a pure and proper woman by any stretch.
"Ahhh! We have to go back to the Soul Society today?", After hearing from Hinamori Momo that they would return tomorrow, Matsumoto Rangiku just collapsed.
"Rangiku, you've played long enough these days," Hinamori Momo puffed her cheeks at Matsumoto Rangiku, but her eyes gave away her guilt.
In reality, ever since Las Noches appeared that day, they hadn't had anything to do.
Stationed in the human world was just to prevent anything else from happening.
As for Tsuneyashiro Tokikawa, in the eyes of the Soul Society, he had long since been taken away by the people of Las Noches.
They even believed he was already dead.
These past few days, Hinamori Momo had been roaming through mountains and rivers with the captain she adored, Aizen.
According to Aizen, he naturally disliked the noise of the city and only loved the peace of nature.
To this, Hinamori Momo, who already revered Aizen like a god, obeyed without question and happily accompanied him in the forests for several days.
Watching the way Hinamori Momo kept glancing at Aizen, a trace of wicked amusement flashed through Rosse' mind.
'If this innocent vice captain learns that the man she has been with day and night these days, the one she gently leans on, is just an illusion disguised as the most ordinary middle aged man… on that pure face of hers, what kind of wonderful expression would crack open?'
Rosse pulled back his thoughts and exchanged a knowing look with the real Aizen.
Back on that day, Aizen had already used Kyoka Suigetsu to create a perfect double, while his real body stayed with Urahara Kisuke, watching with great interest how Urahara treated Hirako Shinji and the others.
Clearly, compared to his young and pretty vice captain, Aizen was more interested in Urahara Kisuke.
"Alright, it's about time. We should get going," Rosse called out, then snapped his fingers lightly.
Pop!
A classic gateway opened slowly in front of him, revealing the path back to the Soul Society.
He stepped into the gate first. The other three also put away their own hidden intentions and followed Rosse into the gate.
Not long after they left, several figures appeared where they had stood.
"Shinigami, are you sure you have nothing to do with those people?"
Ishida Ryuken, wearing a white funeral suit and glasses, stared coldly in the direction where Rosse and the others had gone.
"Well, according to the information we got, this matter shouldn't be related to Aizen and is instead connected to the Quincy and Hollows," Urahara Kisuke lowered his hat and his lips curved in a frivolous smile.
These days, he could clearly sense that Aizen was observing them.
At the same time, he had been observing Aizen.
Originally, he saw Aizen as his greatest enemy, but this sudden incident temporarily changed his mind.
Aizen was dangerous, yes, but the enemy hiding in the dark made people more uneasy.
"It shouldn't be them. Captain Rosse is a good person, and Matsumoto was my former lieutenant. At least they wouldn't be involved," Kurosaki Isshin stood beside Urahara and shook his head lightly.
At least he felt this incident had nothing to do with Rosse.
"According to what I've learned, that Captain Rosse only appeared recently and was invited by nobles to leave the Rukongai and serve as a Gotei 13 captain," Urahara said softly.
"Huh? Rukongai? Nobles? Captain? Do these words even belong in the same sentence?", Former Fifth Division Captain Hirako Shinji wore a shocked expression.
He was also a captain from a hundred years ago. He knew exactly how bizarre it was for those words to show up together.
"I don't care about any of that. I only want to know who my enemy really is," Ishida Ryuken's cold face cut straight to the point.
Not long ago, the wife he loved died, and she died inexplicably at home.
Then he heard that Kurosaki Masaki had also been involved in something. Two incidents in such a short time made it clear to him that this wasn't a coincidence.
The only difference was that Kurosaki Masaki had protection from the people in Hueco Mundo, while his wife had nothing.
"Mr. Ishida, we can't figure this out either. If we want to find out, we might have to go to Hueco Mundo and find Las Noches," Urahara lowered his head slightly, hinting at something.
They didn't have many clues now, and everything seemed to circle back to Las Noches.
If they wanted answers, someone would have to go.
But he didn't dare go. According to Hirako Shinji, that was a place even Aizen had bowed his head to.
And they, who had been chased all over by Aizen, weren't in any position to pick a fight with a force like that.
"Las Noches, huh? I understand. Since I have a lead, I'll track it down myself," Ishida Ryuken left with a cold expression.
Since he knew the location, he could pursue it on his own.
If he wanted to go to Hueco Mundo, all he had to do was grab a Hollow and make it open a Garganta.
As for whether he could come back, that wasn't something he cared about.
He would absolutely get justice for Katagiri.
