Bleach: I Love Making Friends

What does "completely opposite" mean?

Rukia is the main personality, Dark Rukia is the secondary personality, female, a Shinigami with Hollow powers.

So the opposite would be...

Dark Rukia as the main personality, Rukia as the secondary personality, male, a Hollow with Shinigami powers—or perhaps even more opposite, "a Quincy with human powers"!

The opposite of a Shinigami is a Quincy, and the opposite of a Hollow is a human. If that's the case, then the opposite being created would be quite interesting.

If he were to cut Aizen with this ability...

Haruki's mind flashed with information about Aizen.

Male, Shinigami, scheming, with the most powerful illusion-type Zanpakutō, Kyōka Suigetsu.

Then the opposite being would be...

Female, Quincy, straightforward personality, and as for abilities... who knows if it would still be Kyōka Suigetsu? Maybe something completely opposite to illusion-type abilities?

Thinking this, Haruki almost laughed out loud.

Although the ability was powerful, Dark Rukia's favorability toward him was less than 40, much lower than the main Rukia's.

This version of Rukia was clearly more difficult to deal with, and raising her favorability wouldn't be easy.

Seeing Haruki's amused expression, Dark Rukia suddenly felt that following him might not be the most reliable idea.

However, Haruki quickly composed himself and said, "Rukia, even your Zanpakutō has changed. Are you still using the abilities of your old 'Sode no Shirayuki'?"

Rukia's Zanpakutō was named "Sode no Shirayuki." Although she wasn't a seated officer, she had already achieved Shikai before the bull-headed Hollow incident.

But in her Dark Rukia state, her Zanpakutō had transformed into a giant scythe, and it was likely that even its Shikai abilities had changed.

That said, compared to wielding a Zanpakutō, the scythe now seemed more fitting for the concept of a "Shinigami."

"Well..."

Rukia glanced at Haruki, a somewhat sinister smile on her face, and suddenly swung her scythe at him again.

"Why don't you try it out for yourself!"

She swung the massive scythe, and the spiritual pressure erupted into a whirlwind, the powerful gust blowing Haruki's hair.

"Destructive Death Beam."

Haruki extended a finger, and in an instant, a dark beam shot out, the ominous energy rushing toward Rukia!

?!

Rukia's pupils dilated in shock. She hadn't expected Haruki to have such an ability. She quickly retreated, then vanished in an instant.

Haruki's Destructive Death Beam hit nothing but air, shooting into the distance and easily piercing through a white wall before continuing onward.

Meanwhile, Rukia reappeared behind Haruki and swung her scythe at his back.

But Haruki's body also disappeared. He had trained hard in speed, after all.

"Does it have something to do with space? Can you teleport?"

Haruki looked at Rukia and asked.

Rukia hadn't used Shunpo or Sonído. Her movement left no trace, so Haruki guessed it was teleportation.

"I am the most special Hollow, and the most special Shinigami!"

Dark Rukia said with a smile. "Hollows have their own forms, especially at the Adjuchas stage, where they have their so-called 'true forms,' most of which are animals. But I'm different."

"My true form is my Shinigami self, which allows me, as a Hollow, to possess true Shinigami abilities!"

"I can't teleport, but I can appear beside any deceased being, and my attacks ignore all spiritual defenses."

As she spoke, she spun her scythe like a windmill.

"If my 'Reaper's Scythe' hooks you, it will leave a permanent wound. Unless I actively forgive you, it will never heal naturally, no matter how much time passes!"

"That's a dangerous ability..."

Haruki narrowed his eyes. The ability to ignore defenses and leave permanent wounds was one thing, but being able to appear beside any deceased being? Wasn't that a bit overpowered?

This ability must have some weakness...

If there were no restrictions, it would be far too powerful.

But he didn't expect Rukia to reveal her weakness. That would be a joke. Revealing her abilities was already generous enough—who would go out of their way to tell others their weaknesses?

"What about your ability just now?" Rukia asked after explaining her own. "That wasn't Kidō, was it? Kidō doesn't have that kind of power!"

"That's called the Destructive Death Beam. It's also an attack that ignores defenses." Haruki didn't hide it either. She had already shared her abilities, so there was no need for him to be secretive.

It wasn't like he, a grown man, could be more reserved than a girl.

"You're quite interesting. No wonder my main personality is so easily manipulated by you."

"Hey, hey, you can eat whatever you want, but don't say things carelessly. I haven't manipulated Rukia at all." Haruki wiped a bead of sweat. "Talking like that will lead to misunderstandings."

"Hmph..."

"Not to interrupt, but... White's evolution seems to be coming to an end."

Rukia was about to mock Haruki again, but Stark cut in at that moment.

After Stark spoke, Haruki immediately looked over.

White's cocoon was now covered in dense black cracks, and a strange hissing sound was coming from it.

It sounded like some kind of eerie chewing, and as the noise grew louder, the cracks on the cocoon multiplied and widened.

With a series of cracking sounds, the massive cocoon began to peel apart.

Chunks of white material fell away, gradually revealing White, who had been evolving inside.

White's appearance hadn't changed much. If anything, the mask covering his face now bore some intricate patterns.

However, the spiritual pressure emanating from him was far stronger than before!

Moreover, White's eyes seemed more intelligent. When Haruki looked over, he noticed that White's favorability toward him had increased by 10.

Now, White's favorability was at 62, meaning Haruki could use the "Cocooning" ability once.

It seemed White knew that Haruki had been protecting him during his evolution.

Haruki smiled and said, "Those Shinigami outside are here for you. Want to go meet them?"

Roar!

White, having broken free from the cocoon, let out a low growl and vanished in an instant.
