After completing his daily connection tasks with the female Sternritter, Kaiser quickly rinsed off and habitually went out to train with Cirucci.
In this fantastical world of supernatural powers, strength is everything, so Kaiser, having understood this, had a strict training regimen for improving his own power.
Cultivation in this world is not quite like the xuanhuan web novels; it's more akin to an athlete's training. Everyone's upper limit is innate, and your cultivation merely helps you reach that limit faster.
Without 'technology,' it's impossible to naturally break through one's own bottlenecks through cultivation alone.
Take Hisagi Shuuhei, for example, who seems like an inspiring figure. He failed the Spiritual Arts Academy entrance exam twice in the past, yet he eventually grew to the point of being able to use Bankai. Anyone who sees this would praise him as a grassroots success story.
Of course, if Hisagi Shuuhei hadn't applied to the Spiritual Arts Academy and hadn't diligently trained, he might have remained a commoner in Rukongai, unable to realize his potential. His proactive spirit certainly played a huge role.
After all, while Hisagi's potential was good, he wasn't a genius like Tōshirō Hitsugaya, Zaraki Kenpachi, or Kurosaki ichigo, whose innate power overflowed.
However, in reality, whether a Shinigami can achieve Bankai is predetermined at the moment of their birth. Talent is something you either have or you don't.
It's like a container; the moment it's created, its capacity limit is fixed. Aizen and Urahara Kisuke, in order to break through their own limits, decided to use Hollowfication to shatter the container and then re-stabilize and re-bond it into a new container, thereby raising their own upper limits.
This rather crude method carries the risk that if the boundary breaks and the balance is disrupted, and a new boundary isn't quickly re-established and bonded, the container itself will completely shatter, which means the annihilation of the soul.
The Soul King's power, on the other hand, can harmlessly manifest and develop others' potential, granting them more power, or even directly reshaping their framework to raise their upper limits.
Among the Hollows, there are special types that can achieve infinite evolution by continuously devouring, growing stronger like a snowballing game of 'Snake.'
Yhwach's lending and reclaiming of power also allows him to grow endlessly, similar to special Hollows. Furthermore, through The Antithesis (Schrift 'A'), he can redistribute the harvested power to more useful tools, thereby granting the Sternritter Royal Guard/Sacred Guard greater strength.
And Kaiser, through shared power and continuous connections, shared power and life with many excellent female Quincy. In this situation, he found that he also continuously expanded his own upper limit, as if his potential and that of the other sharers were superimposed.
Although after his experiments, he found this was only temporary; if he stopped sharing and cut off the connection, his inflated potential would fall back to its original true level.
However, he also discovered that if he trained and realized his talent while his potential was inflated, then even if he later disconnected the sharing, his power and potential would not diminish or regress in the slightest. Instead, he would genuinely possess greater strength!
Therefore, upon discovering this, Kaiser was ecstatic. On one hand, he went completely wild, shedding all pretense and shyness, becoming the Wandenreich's biggest stud, hooking up with as many female Quincy as possible.
On the other hand, after connecting and sharing, he rigorously cultivated, quickly transforming the temporarily inflated potential gained through sharing into genuine, undeniable power, truly elevating his own strength and upper limit... "You have mastered all existing Quincy techniques, and now you have long surpassed me. I have nothing left to teach you. I even have to ask you for advice on how to achieve optimal performance in adjusting the various parameters of Blut Vene."
Cirucci sighed sincerely, "Putting aside your rather hard-to-evaluate lifestyle, purely in terms of Quincy fundamentals, you are the most solidly grounded Quincy I have ever seen."
"No, I am still far from perfect in fundamentals."
Kaiser shook his head, "Instructor, your 'The Justice (Quincy Vollständig)' possesses the highest spirit particles (reishi) capture and subjugation ability among all Quincy.
My goal is to elevate 'spirit particles (reishi) convergence' to its limit, reaching the 'Quincy' realm of 'absolute subjugation' of spirit particles (reishi), solely with my normal state power, without activating The Almighty (Visionary) form. And in terms of effect, I want to surpass your 'The Justice (Quincy Vollständig),' Instructor."
The essence of Cirucci's The Almighty (Visionary) 'The Justice (Quincy Vollständig)' is its possession of the highest spirit particles (reishi) capture and subjugation ability among all Quincy.
"You've got some nerve, kid. That's not a realm that can be reached by training alone."
Cirucci's eyebrows twitched as he listened. If he couldn't beat Kaiser now, he would have wanted to put him through more intense training, but he could only adjust his glasses and take a deep breath to calm himself.
"Where there's a will, there's a way. I believe hard work won't betray me."
Kaiser believed in his cheat-like abilities.
After all, he could indeed see positive feedback, and it was very intuitive. For him right now, effort truly didn't lie.
"That's enough training for today. I heard you want to join the Hueco Mundo hunting team?"
Cirucci seemed to recall something and suddenly asked.
"You know my abilities. I want to try with female Arrancar."
Kaiser stated bluntly.
"This is truly... hard to evaluate."
Cirucci's pupils first dilated in apparent shock, then he grimaced with distaste, "Although it's for greater power, is it necessary to sacrifice so much? What if you don't get stronger but instead fall seriously ill?"
Kaiser's indiscriminate behavior made Cirucci feel a wave of nausea. In his opinion, Kaiser's ideas and XP were a bit too outrageous and disgusting.
This is like a normal person watching a party with wild beasts; the mere thought causes mental and physiological revulsion. And if the Hollows of Hueco Mundo are likened to inferior beings in a concentration camp, then Cirucci is a German Nazi officer, so he found Kaiser's shameless, self-degrading XP very difficult to evaluate.
However, he also understood that Kaiser's fundamental goal was still power, so he could barely comprehend it.
But Hollow power is poison to Quincy, and he felt Kaiser's idea was unreliable.
"Quincy are a race with absolutely no 'antibodies' to Hollows. Hollow power is toxic to us Quincy.
But I am not a born Quincy. Originally, I was just an ordinary person with no spiritual power talent. I was favored by His Majesty, who granted me power, and only then did I become a Quincy later in life. So, I want to try Hollow power; perhaps I can become that special existence."
Kaiser said softly, his resolve firm.
