Chapter 391 - Bleach X Food Wars...
A/N: There is an Info Dump in this chapter... I recommend everyone to read it because I have explained in detail things like Reiryoku, Reiatsu, and Reishi. These things might seem insignificant now but they will have a massive impact on the plot...
-----------------------------------
[POV Reo]
Both Momo and I finally returned to the Marvel World after spending a whole week in MHA World. Well, a week might have passed in the MHA World but not a single day has passed in the Marvel World.
As soon as I saw Death's and Hela's conversation I stopped time in this world… Bleach… this brings back a lot of memories… That was my first anime. (A/N: Fun fact… even my first anime was Bleach).
{Info Dump Starts}
Bleach… quite an interesting world. The world is completely normal… at least the human world but there are some humans who have a higher level of Reiryoku than a certain level. They will gain some supernatural abilities.
They would gain the ability to see ghosts: Pluses, Shinigami and Hollow. Pulses are the benign ghosts in the Human World. They are the spirit of a person who has died. Shinigami's are the reapers of this world but they aren't actual Gods of Death.
Whereas Hollows are a race of creatures that are born from Human souls who, for various reasons, do not cross over to the afterworld after their death and get corrupted for staying in the Human World for too long.
Now, you might think what Reiryoku is. Reiryoku (Spiritual Power) is a power aligned with the spiritual sensitivity and willpower of the user. It is used by Shinigami and other spiritual beings to provide power for their various abilities. Reiryoku is most quickly increased when a Soul is in a life-or-death situation.
Then there is the Reiatsu… Reiatsu (Spiritual Pressure) is the physical force/pressure that a person's Reiryoku creates when released. Most Shinigami, Arrancar, and Quincies can manipulate the release of their Reiatsu.
Now there is a difference between Reiryoku and Reiatsu, both might seem to be the same things but they are not… Reiryoku is the amount of energy a being has stored within their body or soul, whereas Reiatsu is the pressure that a person's Reiryoku exerts.
In other words, Reiryoku is potential while Reiatsu is energy in use and can be sensed by other spiritually aware beings. In general, those with high levels of Reiryoku will often have the highest levels of Reiatsu. A skilled warrior can overcome a person possessing greater Reiryoku by possessing greater Reiatsu - this is achieved by having greater control over their own spiritual energy.
Now, there are four races who are spiritually aware… a handful of humans, Shinigamis, Hollows, and Quincies. (A/N: I am gonna ignore the Bounts… they are not important for the story).
Shinigamis are the guardians of the souls who are going through the circle of transmigration. In ancient times, they were known as Balancers. They purify Hollows who do evil in the World of the Living and ensure the safe crossing of souls - the Pluses who have lost their way after death - by giving them a soul burial.
Shinigamis reside in the Soul Society… the heaven or the representation of heaven in the Bleach World. They possess high Reiryoku and a body of Reishi. They are invisible to those without spiritual powers.
When Souls with exceptional spiritual energy train their bodies, they reach the level of Shinigami. The most talented of them become affiliated with various organizations like the Gotei 13 and the Onmitsukidō. The majority of potential Shinigamis are born among the residents of the Soul Society.
Now, Hollows are corrupt spirits with supernatural powers which devour the souls of both living and deceased Humans. Hollows settle in Hueco Mundo but they can cross over to the Human World and Soul Society. Hollows are the opposite of Humans.
Hollows are former Pluses (deceased Human souls) who lose their hearts to despair or regret, or they remain in the Human World for too long. Any spirit who is not guided to Soul Society by a Shinigami via Konsō (Soul Burial) may eventually turn into a Hollow.
Hueco Mundo is the dimension in which Hollows usually reside. It lies in between the Human World and Soul Society.
And the Quincy are living beings that have the ability to detect the existence of Hollows and other Souls. Most of the Quincies were exterminated by the Shinigamis over 200 years ago in order to prevent the collapse of the worlds due to the Quincy over-hunting and destroying all Hollows they encountered.
Now, someone might ask what are their bodies made of… the answer is Reishi. Reishi composes the spiritual bodies of Souls, including Hollows and Shinigami, and everything in Hueco Mundo and Soul Society. Reishi is invisible and intangible to mortals, with the exception of spiritually aware beings.
{Info Dump Ends}
I arrived inside my living room and found that Hela was already there waiting for me… "Can you take me to Bleach World?" Hela asked me excitedly and I simply nodded my head and a beer bottle appeared in my hand.
Hela extended her hand towards the beer bottle so I gave her the bottle and another one appeared in my hand. "Yes, I know that world" I said and Momo and Rumi arrived while talking about various things. Momo had bought some souvenirs for the girls from the MHA World.
"What world?" Momo asked me, she was looking slightly excited. She was always fascinated by the concept of other worlds… "Are we planning to go into a new world?" Momo asked and I simply nodded.
"Wait… I don't need you guys to come… I can solve something like that on my own" Hela tried to defend herself thinking I thought that she needed help.
"Hela… you are going to be in that world for a few years… and it has been some years since we have been in this world… I think it's about time that we leave this world" I said and both Momo and Rumi nodded their heads in agreement.
"I don't mind if that's the case…" Hela said with a shrug and emptied the beer bottle in one go. At least she didn't smash the bottle on the ground because she liked it… she is a refined Asgardian.
"Ok… so should I call the others??" Momo asked in an excited tone and I simply nodded my head.
Momo immediately pulled out her phone and started to text the other girls… all of them were lazing around somewhere or training, so all of them arrived in a few minutes. "Momo said that we will be going to a new world?? What type of new world??" Fleur gushed out like a little girl… I could already see stars in her eyes.
"Calm down… let me explain" I said and all of them sat on the couch and started to listen to me intently like small kids… I found the scene hilarious especially when Dora was wearing butterfly pajamas. After that, I started to explain about the Bleach World and the sub-dimensions.
"The human world seems to be quite boring…" Nemuri said with a sullen look on her face. "Well… I can always take over the human world and introduce them to the ways of 'Ultra Pervert'" Nemuri puffed out her chest and said with a proud look on her face. Everyone except Luna deadpanned after hearing her words.
"It might look like the human world is boring and normal but it isn't…" I said mysteriously. I have found something interesting about the Bleach Prime Universe… the Human World of the Bleach Prime Universe was ruled by chefs and their dishes…
The whole economy of the Human World was ruled by Food… somehow the World of Shokugeki no Souma was merged with the Human World of the Bleach Prime World. I don't know how something like that happened when there was a separate Multiverse of Shokugeki no Souma. Even the characters in both of the Worlds are the same.
Hmm… the Omniverse is filled with a lot of mysteries I don't know of. So after that, I started to tell my girls about the world ruled by Foodgasms… I had expected only Nemuri to be interested after that but unexpectedly, all the girls except Hela and Luna were interested… It seems that they really wanted to learn cooking.
But I was wrong… as soon as I finished telling them about the world… they burst out laughing… I simply deadpanned. "You know he is telling the truth" Luna pointed out from the side and all the girls including Hela gasped.
"So that wasn't a joke?? That world is truly ruled by Food?" Momo and Jean screamed out at the same time and I simply nodded my head with a smug grin on my face…
"Bugger me sideways!! I am going to learn how to cook!!" Dora exclaimed with fire in her eyes.
"You should learn how to walk first…" Nemuri muttered while looking away but she was loud enough and everyone heard what she said.
"Fuck you pervert!! Hmph!!" Dora snorted and started to pout.
"Ignore those two… so you are saying that even our cooking skills could improve in that world?" Momo asked me in a hopeful tone… I didn't want to destroy their hope so I nodded my head. You can't improve anything that doesn't exist but they can surely try.
"Just imagine the things we could discover in that world… The Food culture must be highly developed there…" Fleur said with stars in her eyes. Both Momo and Jean immediately nodded their heads in agreement.
"Yes… Reo said that we could also learn how to heal people through food… I really want to research that…" Jean said with an excited look on her face.
"Count me in… I am somewhat interested now" Ororo said with a shrug and Nat simply decided to join the group silently. And Luna was Luna so she simply kept smiling.
{Luna didn't say anything out loud but she was already planning how to cultivate the Dao of Pudding}
"I would have been interested but there are no interesting to kill or torture people with Food…" Hela said with a disappointed look on her face so I decided to tell her about the peanut butter and squid combination on a later date.
"Well… I was never interested in making food but I could give it a try since you said food from that world could nourish my body state…" Rumi said with an unsure look on her face.
"Rumi, you don't need to worry about that… I will take over the economy as soon as we arrive there… so we will be able to enjoy the Food without working" Nemuri said with a shrug and Rumi decided to join Nemuri's team without thinking much… Dora also decided to join Nemuri's team when she heard that she didn't need to work hard.
"So… when are we going to leave?" Ororo asked curiously and I thought for a few seconds.
"Pack everything… we would be leaving today…" I said and the girls looked slightly surprised but they immediately agreed and went to pack things… With a wave of my hand, I teleported Knox into my dimension along with the whole piece of land so that we don't have to re-establish the wards.
"Is there a reason we are leaving today?" Hela asked and I simply shrugged. "I had thought that you would take some time…" Hela said and I simply shook my head.
"There is no reason… I just want to test my power on Hollows…" I said with a shrug and Hela nodded her head.
(A/N: Bleach canon starts in the year 2001 and there is no information about the Food Wars Timeline… so, I have to change them. In my fanfic Bleach canon will start from the year 2017, while the Food Wars canon will start in 2016. The MC and the girls are going to arrive in the year 2015, giving the girls one year to prepare).
"I think I will join you too… I am quite intrigued with these spiritual beings" Hela said and I agreed. After that, I went to meet Eric. As usual, he was in his office.
"So… what brings you here today?" Eric asked and I simply smiled while looking outside the window.
"I am leaving…" I said and Eric immediately shot out of his chair and approached me.
"Oh… so are you going to return someday?" Eric asked and I shrugged.
"No idea… I will come whenever I want I guess…" I said and Eric nodded his head in understanding. After a few moments of silence, Eric extended his hand towards me.
"It was nice knowing you Reo… I could never repay you for the things you have done for me and our race…" Eric said and I accepted his hand and shook it with a smile on my face. I pulled him into a brotherly hug… it might have never seemed like that but Eric has been a good friend.
"Don't worry about it Eric… stay happy and prosper" I said and left.
When I finally returned I found Flavia munching chips in our living room. She had a suitcase beside her. I have already seen that Luna had told her about our world travel and Flavia had decided to tag along because she wanted to see other worlds. To be honest, I didn't mind. She is a good friend.
It took the girls only half an hour to finish packing everything… so, now all of us stood outside our house… all of our luggage was in my Storage Space. "So, are you girls ready?" I asked and they nodded their heads excitedly.
"Ok… let's go…" I said and a massive blue portal appeared in front of us. All of us entered the portal and arrived in a completely new world… the world of Bleach and Food wars…
