Chapter 23: Chapter 23 - Meeting the Bambies, Ichigo Begins Training, and Unlocks His Shikai
At this time, Adam and Bambietta have just woken up in Adam's room and felt the increase in their strength. It is daytime and Adam is going to school with Uryu, while Bambietta is going back to the Wandenreich to bring back some of her colleagues.
Some time has passed and school is over as Adam is currently walking back home. Adam turned his head, looking to the side with Uryu by his side.
"Bambi, who are the 4 people next to you? Are they also Sternritter?"
"Adam, they are my friends from the Wandenreich, Candice Catnipp, Liltotto Lamperd, Giselle Gewelle, and Meninas Mcallon. Can you show them the future using your illusion?"
Bambietta introduced the 4 people that were standing next to her as she asked Adam.
On the far right of Bambietta is Candice Catnipp, who is a tall and well-endowed young woman with long, light-green hair. She has blue eyes, prominent eyelashes, and thin, lightning-bolt shaped eyebrows. Her attire is a heavily modified and revealing variation of the regular Sternritter's white uniform, consisting of the typical double-breasted jacket, which she keeps tied up to reveal her midriff and unbuttoned, as well as removing the fabric on the sides, to display her cleavage, and a pair of short-shorts which are held up by a black belt with a green heart-shaped buckle attached to the side. She also wears a white cap on her head with gold trimmings, which features a black peak and the Wandenreich insignia emblazoned on its front, and a pair of bulky, shaft-heeled boots.
In between Bambietta and Candice is Liltotto Lamperd, who is a petite young girl with chin-length blonde hair and golden eyes. Her attire is a variation of the Sternritter's typical white uniform, consisting of a skirt in place of the signature trench coat, gloves, patterned leggings, and a white cap with gold trimmings, which features a black peak and the Wandenreich insignia emblazoned on its front. She also wears a golden heart buckle on her waist.
On the far left of Bambietta is Meninas Mcallon, who is an imposingly tall and well-endowed girl of slender build. She is light-skinned with long wavy pink hair and short bangs that frame her forehead and pink eyes. Her attire is a variation of the Sternritter's typical white uniform, consisting of a frilled skirt, frilled gloves, frilled boots, leggings, a belt with a heart-shaped buckle, a large purple bow with a white Wandenreich symbol around her neck, and a white cap with gold trimmings, which features a black peak and the Wandenreich insignia emblazoned on its front, turned sideways.
In between Bambietta and Meninas is Giselle Gewelle, who has blue eyes and long, black hair extending down to her lower back, with two strands sticking up like antennae. Her attire is a variation of the Sternritter's typical white uniform, consisting of a trench coat with long sleeves, white shoes, and black leggings. She wears a small white cap, which features a black peak and the Wandenreich insignia emblazoned on its front, on the side of her head. She also wears a blue heart buckle on her waist.
"What are you talking about Bambi? Who is this little guy? He's so cute that I want to smother him!"
Meninas Mcallon asked Bambietta.
"I'm talking about the Schrift that Adam has. It allows him to live different lives that are exactly the same as this one, containing the same events, exact same personality, etc. but is a simulation. Adam can show you all the events of the different lives so that you will know why I brought you all here."
Bambietta replied as she also stood in front of the Sternritter, as she is protecting Adam like a mother hen. Adam looked at all of them in the eye as he used his Rinnesharingan to put them all into an illusion, showing them the events.
As they were all in the illusion, Candice Catnipp, Liltotto Lamperd, Meninas Mcallon, and Giselle Gewelle began to cry after seeing what Adam went through. After about 5 minutes they stopped crying as they said to Bambietta and Adam.
"We will not go back to the Wandenreich. Do you have anywhere for us to stay?"
"You all can live in our house until you find a hotel. We have enough rooms and no one comes to visit."
Adam suggested to them.
"Okay. I think that we can stay at your house for a day, however we will try to find a hotel or house to live in for a long time as soon as possible."
Candice Catnipp replied to Adam as she went up to him and stroked his head. When Bambietta saw this, her cheeks bulged as she said angrily.
"Candy! Stop it! Adam is mine! You have to get our permission to touch his head!"
"Bambi, don't worry about it. Hello Adam, my name is Candice Catnipp but you can just call me Candy."
Candice Catnipp replied to Bambietta before telling Adam.
"My name is Meninas Mcallon, but you can call me Meni."
"My name is Liltotto Lamperd, but you can call me Lil or Liltotto."
"And my name is Giselle Gewelle, but you can just call me Gigi."
The rest of them introduced themselves to Adam. After they introduced themselves, Urahara Kisuke walked towards them and said to Adam and Bambietta.
"Who are these guys? Are they friends of yours? Adam, I have come to find you as I have managed to figure out how to make the Auswahlen Immune Serums you were asking me to make. Do you want me to give them each one as well?"
"Uncle Kisuke, would that be alright? Thank you for managing to make them. I'll come over to the store at the end of the week, if that is okay with you?"
Adam responded to Kisuke Urahara who threw him 4 of the Auswahlen Immune Serums, which he gave to them.
"Candy, Meni, Lil, and Gigi, take these. They will allow you to be immune to Auswahlen if Yhwach does something."
"Thank you Adam."
They all took the serum and thanked Adam, and subsequently Kisuke.
After they talked for a while more, they went to the house. At the house they began to do their own things and time passed quickly again.
——————— Dividing Line ———————
It has been a week and Adam is currently at school. Adam is doing his work while using a large amount of finely controlled Reiatsu to nurture Orihime Inoue's Fullbring, increasing its potential, and increase her Reiryoku potential by an extremely small amount, nurture Tatsuki Arisawa to increase her Reiryoku potential by a small amount, and also using it to nurture Ichigo Kurosaki's Fullbring, increasing its potential, and increases his maximum potential by an extremely minuscule amount.
Adam is using the maximum amount of Reiatsu that their bodies can bear to nurture them, increasing their upper limit, and also giving Tatsuku Arisawa the option if the need arises in the future, to be able to fight Hollows or other opponents.
At this time, class is over and it is lunch time. Adam is sitting with Uryu, and Ichigo came up to them.
"Hello Adam, Uryu. It turns out that you are my cousins. Mom and dad have asked me to ask you, that they would like you to introduce me to someone called Kisuke Urahara."
Ichigo said to Adam and Uryu, inviting them to his house.
"I will come to your house after school. Uryu has things to do recently."
Adam told Ichigo, as they continued to chat for a while longer.
School has ended and Adam is walking with Ichigo to the Urahara Shop. As they arrived at the front of the shop, Kisuke Urahara walked out of the store and welcomed them inside.
"Yo… Adam and Ichigo, fancy seeing you here. Come inside. What do you need me to do?"
Adam walked inside first with Ichigo following behind him. He said to Kisuke Urahara.
"Uncle Kisuke, Uncle Isshin and Aunt Masaki have asked me to introduce you to Ichigo. I guess that they want him to begin training, so that he would be able to protect himself and his baby sisters."
"What do you two mean? Are those Hollow things my dad talked about going to attack me, Yuzu, and Karin?"
Ichigo asked concerned.
"Well…. I'll start preparing for him to start training. Ugh… it's going to be such a pain getting another Zanpakuto for him to use."
Kisuke Urahara said to Adam before sighing and mumbling to himself.
"Uncle Kisuke, do you think that you would be able to try and make a new Quincy Cross that would allow for Quincies to purify Hollows like a Zanpakuto does?"
"I think that I can manage to do that."
Kisuke Urahara said as he went to begin preparing for Ichigo's training.
It has been 10 minutes and Kisuke Urahara has began training Ichigo. He is teaching Ichigo how to control his Reiatsu and Reiryoku. Adam said goodbye to Ichigo and Kisuke Urahara, leaving to go home.
Back at the house, Adam saw Bambi, Candy, Meni, Lil, and Gigi sitting at a table. He went up to them and heard what they were saying, as they noticed him.
Bambi: "I know that you all might have a crush on Adam, however he is currently still 5 years old, and his mental age is also 5 years old even after all the different lives he has lived. I don't want to see you all trying to force yourselves on him when he reaches the age where he can do things. I am going to be the 1st person who sleeps with him because I have waited for over 1000 years, as I lived a life with him recently just before I went back to the Wandenreich to bring you out of the Wandenreich."
Candy: "We won't force ourselves on him Bambi. But I won't walk away if he wants to sleep with me."
Meni, Gigi, and Lil: "We are the same, Bambi."
Bambi: "He needs to sleep with me first!"
They began to argue but Adam stopped them, asking them if they want to train using the more advanced Sanrei Gloves.
Candy: "I'll train using the More Difficult Sanrei Glove first, if that is okay with you all."
Meni, Gigi, and Lil: "That is fine with us. I (Meni) will use it 2nd, if that is okay?"
Gigi and Lil: "I'm fine with that. Lil, you can use it after Meni and I will use it last."
After they came to an agreement, they began to talk for a while longer.
——————— Dividing Line ———————
Time has passed quickly and it has been a year. Adam has turned 6 years old, and is currently watching Ichigo attempting to learn his Shikai. Adam used his Rinnesharingan to enter Ichigo's inner world and saw Hollow Ichigo and Ichigo's Quincy powers (Yhwach) stopping him.
Adam: "I don't want to have to do this, and I am not here to fight. I just want to remind the soul fragment of Yhwach that Ichigo has inside of him to not try and seal or suppress Ichigo's Shinigami powers. If you don't trust the Shinigami to teach Ichigo correctly, why don't you both teach him together, allowing him to utilise the full potential of his Shinigami/Hollow/Quincy/Fullbringer hybrid lineage, so that he will be safer?"
Hollow Ichigo (White): "Old man Yhwach, he's right you know. We should allow Ichigo to be strong enough to protect himself, instead of needing to hide from the dangers he encounters."
Yhwach's Soul Fragment: "I have seen how hard he has trained recently, so I guess that I will agree to it. However, if Ichigo encounters danger, I want you to give me your guarantee that you will come to his aid."
Adam: "I agree to your requirements. Bye, I'm leaving now."
Adam then left Ichigo's inner world as Ichigo entered a few seconds later. After 30 minutes, Ichigo pulled out his Zanpakuto and said loudly.
"Zangetsu!"
After this was said, Ichigo's Zanpakuto takes the form of two separate, purely black blades.
One is the size of his fake Shikai in the original work's sword, once again in the shape of a khyber knife, with the grip at the base of the blade and a handle extending back from this about roughly the width and length of Ichigo's forearm. There is a thin, hollowed-out portion running along the back edge of the blade from the base to the middle of the blade.
The second blade is relatively small, about the size of Ichigo's arm, and is similar to the first blade, but resembles a trench knife more than a sword. Unlike its counterpart, it has an enclosed handle, with a portion acting like a hand guard.
Both blades represent a different facet of Ichigo's powers: the larger blade represents his inner Hollow(the manifestation of his Shinigami/Hollow powers) and the smaller blade represents "Yhwach's Soul Fragment" (the manifestation of his Quincy powers).
Kisuke Urahara: "Well Ichigo. As you have learned Shikai, Yoruichi, Tessai, and I are going to make you become a Master Swordsman, Master Hakuda Combatant, a Shunpo Master, and at least a Kido Expert before we will allow you to use the special method that I used to learn Bankai in less than 3 days."
Ichigo: "But that would take so long~"
Ichigo began to whine at what Kisuke Urahara told him.
Adam: "Ichigo, bear with it. Uncle Kisuke is only setting these requirements because he, Yoruichi, and Uncle Tessai have great expectations of you. I will also see if you can also train with Grandpa Soken to learn Quincy techniques. When you become 10, I will take you to see the Visored, which will allow you to learn how to use your Hollow powers."
Kisuke Urahara: "Adam is right. The reason why Adam has no restrictions is that because of his Schrift, he knows how to correctly use his powers, limit them, restrain himself, and knows how the world works, even if his mental age has regressed. At this moment, you can probably fight against a weaker captain, and when you learn Bankai you will probably be able to defeat the strongest captains. When you grow up and become a teenager, you will probably be as strong as Head Captain Yamamoto when he is using Bankai. If you don't have good control over your powers, it will be very easy for you to accidentally kill someone."
Kisuke Urahara explained to Ichigo which Ichigo accepted the conditions.

After this, time began to pass quickly again and Adam is currently 16 years old.
In this time Adam has found Riruka Dokagamine and she began to live in Adam's house. Adam has also continued to nurture Orihime Inoue and Tatsuki Arisawa, he also started nurturing Riruka and Yasutora Sado. At this time, Orihime, Tatsuki, Sado, and Riruka all possess Captain class Reiryoku (Great Spiritual Power), however it is latent and hasn't been controlled.
Adam has used his Schrifts many times, having many lives, with Bambi, Yoruichi, Candy, Meni, Lil, Gigi, Lisa, Mashiro, and Riruka.
In these lives, Adam has pretty much mastered all of his powers. In these lives, all the Quincies completed the training using the Most Difficult Sanrei Glove, have been able to use the 3rd form of Vollstandig, and everyone being much more skilled in everything.

In this time, Ichigo and Uryu have also grown much stronger. Ichigo is now a Master Swordsman, Master Hakuda Practitioner, Shunpo Master, and Kido Expert. He can also use Bankai, with the ability to cut the fate of things to what the he wants it to be. Ichigo has the strength of a top captain (Unohana Retsu (In the state of Yachiru Unohana), Kyoraku Shunsui (when serious and using Bankai), etc.) when he is using all of his strength (only using Shinigami powers, and he hasn't encountered a tough fight to stimulate his potential).
Uryu has now completed the training using the Even More Difficult Sanrei Glove, and is currently training using the Most Difficult Sanrei Glove. Uryu has also learned how to use Vollstandig and can use the 2nd form. Uryu now has the strength of an Advanced Captain (Urahara Kisuke, Yoruichi Shihoin, and Kenpachi Zaraki (in the invasion of soul society arc)) when using his full strength (as he hasn't encountered a tough fight to stimulate his potential).
