Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō

"Please, don’t trouble yourself over this. I have my own methods."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi stared intently at Cang Du, his greed completely undisguised. In fact, his eyes burned with even greater fanaticism.

As expected—an exceptional pure-blood Quincy!

The Quincy placed even more emphasis on bloodline than the Shinigami.

Among the Shinigami, even commoners with talent could surpass aristocrats through sheer effort and determination.

But Quincy were different.

From Mayuri’s years of research, he had concluded that a Quincy could never surpass the limits of their own bloodline.

Pure-bloods were pure-bloods. Half-bloods were half-bloods. Their lineage determined their ceiling, locking their potential in place.

Unless someone could artificially enhance a Quincy’s bloodline—turning a half-blood into a pure-blood—their power could never truly surpass those limits.

And the only known individual capable of such a feat was the legendary progenitor of the Quincy—

Yhwach.
