The Path of the Great Sovereign 97 Brainstorming

Tatsuo sat in his office later the same day pondering over the major difference between the current Clan situation and the overall structure of the Japanese Feudal Hierarchy. In the Night Empire he incorporated many things from a more western View point, as he was the first to come up with the idea no one questioned it.

However, the situation was extremely different now. It would be unwise to uproot the traditions ingrained into the people for many Thousands of years, therefore he thought about the Proper situation of a Clan.

A Clan was made up of many individuals related by blood or through marriage, and a common ancestor. Currently the number of true Clan members of the Shiba was extremely low, most of the "members" were servants that handle the grounds and day to day running of the estate. If you count the Branch Family that Isshin heads there are only 8 members of the Clan.

'I was adopted into the Shiba so I technically don't have this Royal blood which may be necessary. On this Plane there is only 1 God, The Soul King, he is directly incharge of the current system in place. He maintains the Balance of the 4 dimensions of Hell, The Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the World of the Living. Without his continued existence the current situation of this Plane would collapse. As a God he naturally stands above his creations the Hollows, Humans, Souls, and Quincy, so why would he create such a troubling situation for himself as a God? I experienced the strong desire the Plane injects into you when you ascend to protect and create life however, he has completely giving up on himself in the process. There are other ways to protect and create new life.'

Tatsuo sat there pondering the reason behind the Soul King's actions.

'I have met the Administrator of Plane 1 before to be in charge of such a High Ranking plane he must be a competent individual. Yet the same cannot be said about the ones lower on the spectrum, either they are new to the job or were demoted in some way. In terms of Gods they are the wildcard of the Plane, they can create, destroy, or modify souls. The are needed to ensure no one ascends whom may threaten the very Plane however it is the Adminastors job to hold the Plane together.'

Tatsuo got someone to bring him tea while he continued his contemplation.

'In other words the Soul King's death would collapse the world not the Plane. Another God can modify the system he has in place to make the need for a God unnecessary. While using his blood to Ascend would be the fastest possible route to quickly fuse my essence into 1 there is a possibility I would gain his "Soul" Divine ability in addition to my "Declare". I don't see a downside to it as I would become a God with multiple Divine Abilities, also "Soul" is supposed to be Unique to Administrators, this is an unexpected gain if I obtain it. In world where the Path to Ascend is unclear I can make the path for myself.'

Tatsuo laughed so hard his reiatsu began to leak into the surroundings, his Laugh was heard far throughout the Soul Society reaching even the slums on it's outskirts. While not enough to cause suffocation the released reiatsu permeated the entire Gotei 13 making all of it's members to sweat and become nervous. As even in his joyous mood, the Head Captain's Strength made you lose confidence in the ability to protect yourself.

'Purchase the Shiba bloodline, Isolate the traces of the Soul King's blood within then strengthen that specific strain.'

[Acknowledged.]

The three essence of Arrancar, Soul Reaper and Quincy within him began to fight for supremacy. Hokori refused to be subservient to any which caused the roar of a Dragon to ring from within his body. The roar shook the seireitei, as the Reiatsu of the Head Captain increased exponentially until it no longer could be felt at all. He reached a level of transcendence but nowhere near the level of a true God like he once was.

The three essences continued there battle until only two remained, Hokori and Warden. Yet they both underwent drastic changes as the Quincy essence fused with them, Hokori no longer had his Six sets of wings. He now had 1 pair that were larger than the six that came before, they were no longer white. They now glowed with a rainbow hue the reflected the sunlight in the Spiritual realm. Warden didn't show any visible changes since his time within Ichizo's Eternal Night genjutsu. With the exception of the Chains that bound the prisoners including Yamamoto were now White, and the world was slightly brighter as the moon in the sky became a full one.

On Tatsuo's side his eyes just turned grey as more pupils appeared before fusing back into one. Like Yhwach and his Father the Soul King, Tatsuo could now see the future as well. He could be considered as the Soul King's "Son" as well.

After that process he used Sonido to arrive at the Shiba estate.

He now had to:

Asses the Political situation between the Soul King, Central 46, and the Great Noble Families.

Spent Time with his Wife.

Spectate and Evaluate the changes of the Gotei 13 during the Attack that was coming up

He could now see it all, there was nothing here that could stop him. However when you are at the top you hate being alone, he lived that life once. He would not do it again in this life.
