Chapter 114: Treasure Orb
The transformation of the Hōgyoku into a "coal ball" was entirely expected, so instead of disappointment, Masatsuki Aozaki felt a surge of excitement.
This proved the experiment was moving in the right direction!
The jade-like orb gradually stabilized.
There were no fractures, nor did any souls dissipate.
The failure from previous attempts hadn't repeated itself, surprising Masatsuki Aozaki—yet also filling him with anticipation.
"The experiment has achieved its first success. Just like Aizen's Hōgyoku, its shape is irregular, and its size is increasing."
Masatsuki Aozaki carefully examined the orb within the containment vessel.
Now, he finally understood why Aizen had referred to this as a 'treasure.'
Who would willingly call their life's work a 'coal ball'?
Masatsuki Aozaki picked up the coal ball—no, the treasure!
Holding it in the palm of his hand, he scrutinized the priceless object.
