***Next Day***
"It'll just be for a day or two, we'll be back before you know it!" Bambietta said.
"Okay, have fun!" Sabrina replied as she left the room after giving Bambietta a hug, she had to go to kindergarden.
'She seems rather happy to go to kindergarden... That boy must be the cause of it all...' Bambietta said internally with malice, not realizing that she was overthinking things and that Sabrina was actually just having fun.
"Geez... They keep apologizing for some of reverse london being damaged, the emissaries said that they find it very regrettable that you see it in such a state." A voice said as she entered, or rather, Candice.
"Hah, then they should've seen the Seireitei a while back, besides it's not really that big of a deal?" Bambietta said amused.
"It can't be helped, with all troops focused on repelling the air assaults of the Dominion, there was essentially no troops except for a recon unit and a few police districts between the city and the Dominion force, until recently reverse London was a front line city, they're lucky that this is all they received and that the Dominion didn't push for a ground advance." Liltotto said as she entered behind Candice.
"Makes you wonder why they didn't when the opportunity was there." Candice replied.
"There is always the possibility that they expected a worst case scenario where we had put up a tough front, we were ready for the possibility of the Dominion pushing with a combined ground and air assault, it would've rained hell down on the city but all things considered, the odds of us holding it would be high due to several key advantages we possessed." Liltotto stated.
"That's true." Bambietta said.
"Hmm... Where is Ichigo?" Candice said as she looked around.
"Oh, he already left to check in with the research division." Bambietta replied.
"This early?" Liltotto asked.
"Well, now is the best time for him." Bambietta replied as she got her shoes.
While she often wore her uniform, her uniform would probably be a bit improper to wear to a state visit and was best suited for military duties, as this one tour would be purely political in terms of diplomacy.
Currently she wore a shirt with a suit jacket over it, aswell as a ascot scarf that was connected to the shirt, the side of it was hidden under the collar and in did have a handkerchief shape, unlike Ichigo's which was a tie shape, aswell as a ruby on it, she also had a shirt that went to her knees, and surprisingly, after so much practice for the wedding day, she had actually gotten used to high heels as she always practiced with them on, so she decided to wear that today, she had a variety of colors on the shoes, she also wore garter belts and nylon stockings as usual with this attire, the military uniform stockings were usually long socks as they didn't rip so easily, but then again she wasn't heading towards combat so she could ease up on the outfit a bit.
Her outfit was of light blue color with a white shirt and light blue ascot scarf, her heels were also light blue and while she did wear black garter belts, no body saw that but she did have tan stockings with a black band on top, though the rest of them were tan in color from underneath the top band to the toes.
Though Ichigo did have his regal attire with him, he didn't wear it as he didn't see any reason to and opted instead to just wear his full suit, with his vest, a standard tie and everything instead of the extravagant regal attire, they both also had their military uniforms with them aswell.
The parade would be tommorow that was for certain, for now it was just regular talks and so on today, aswell as the welcoming when they arrived in reverse London, Isshin would ensure that everything ran smoothly in Silbern while Chad and Aizen accompanied Ichigo and Bambietta, Ulrik would also come aswell as Abrons and Samund who was also there along with a bunch of K.G guards and other members of the Wandenreich military.
The west branch would also send their own security detail to assist the K.G in terms of security around Ichigo and Bambietta, aswell as to the visitors of the east branch, which included the Kuchiki family, the Shihoin family including some members of central 46, accompanied by certain Gotei officers that they knew for certain, but they didn't know who else would be attending or if there even were anyone else.
"Oh, where is Sabrina?" Candice asked as she looked around.
"She's getting ready for kindergarden... Hey... I expect you to not twist or corrupt my little angel, I expect her to be as pure as snow when I get back!" Bambietta said sternly.
"Oh?.. Pure as snow is it?.. Is that why she's going around giving boys smoochie poochies in kindergarden?" Candice replied with a sly smirk.
Once again, the anvil of reality hit Bambietta straight in the head, it was almost as if it fell from space.
"I-it's not smoochie poochies if it's on the c-c-c-cheek! I-i-it's just a greeting!" Bambietta yelled out at the top of her lungs as she realized that all Candice wanted to do was to annoy her.
"Ohh? After seeing the boy for a while already? After being ready to leave?" Candice replied with a wicked smirk.
"I-it-uhm..." Bambietta replied, unsure how to respond.
"Hmm?... Oh... Hush!" Candice said as she listened out, causing Liltotto and Bambietta to wonder what she heard.
"Hmm... Yes... I think it's wedding bells I hear... I can already see Sabrina in a wedding dress." Candice said.
The picture of Sabrina in a wedding dress and wedding bells chiming as Ernst handed Sabrina off entered Bambietta's head like a meteorite as she just stood there and looked at the floor, thinking very deeply.
"You're right..." Bambietta said lowly as Candice finally stopped annoying her and was shocked by those words, naturally Liltotto followed Bambietta with her eyes very closely at this point.
"Huh?.." Candice asked stunned.
"The only way to truly keep Sabrina so pure... Is to get rid of every boy within a 5 year age gap... Every option must be considered to ensure Sabrina's purity remains..." Bambietta said with malice.
'Oh crap I went to far...' Candice said internally stunned.
"For fucks sakes Candy how stupid you possibly be!" Liltotto said as they both flashed to Bambietta as she had started to run out of the room.
Silbern Research Division Testing Field
Ichigo, Chad and Aizen walked with Erwig, he had proposed a major upgrade of the railguns after seeing a fatal flaw that somehow bypassed them, the problem was rather simple, their capability to move the cannon itself was extremly limited and required the railgun to have additional tracks which caused the railguns to be delayed in terms of firing their guns in the Seireitei, and it also limited the support they could give, furthermore there was some slight problems with the small turn capability the gun had as the recoil caused some damage to the attachment between the gun and the top railcar, which attached the gun to the top part which was now the turret, causing it to slightly shatter, luckily none of them fully shattered or broke, for if they had, the gun would have shot off the recoil rails on the large railcar, dragged the entire crew with it, caused a large number of casualties, and the shell would have gotten off course and probably hit a friendly target as the gun was shot off the railcar.
To counter this, they had added a swing ring to it, attached between the large top body and the two rail cars underneath, ensuring that the gun could now rotate an entire 360 degrees, to counter the recoil problem as the recoil of such a huge gun was a force not to be taken lightly as it could push the already over 1000 tonn railcar backwards when fired and the gun hit the edge of the recoil rail on the railcar, they had added two massive rear stabilization cylinders meant to take the recoil so the railgun didn't shoot itself sideways, allowing the gun to be fired easily at any angle, the cylinders would only be used if firing from an angle however as it wasn't a problem if the railcar was pushed backwards or forwards as that could always be adjusted back as now had the capability to move by itself although very slowly, it could move at a speed of 5 km/h at top speed so using trains was definitely faster, furthermore the capability to rotate 360 degrees also removed the need for the actual gun itself to move slightly, so they had made it completely stationary while reinforcing the attachements to withstand the pressure as a precaution.
They were currently test firing one of them with the new upgrades, and indeed the stabilization cylinders worked wonders, what they had done with them was to put a manifestation device inside a cylinder to allow the cylinder to extend as far as it needed, before a reishi generator that powered the whole railcar, filled the cylinder with large quantities of dense reishi, causing it to thicken dramatically, and what leaked out was replaced by another batch of reishi automatically, ensuring a steady flow of pressure inside the cylinders.
But the reishi generator had to be able to start properly, it was fueled by reishi so it was self sustainable, but it did start like a normal car engine, to start the massive reishi generator that was hidden inside the hull of the turret, a generator the size of a truck, which was started up by a starter motor the size of a car engine, which was powered by one of three boxes, each of them was battery boxes containing four batteries, which was serial connected, meaning a total of 48 volts which was required for the starter motor to run for just three seconds.
That left the problem of recharging the batteries, which was easily solved by providing three large dynamoes which was attached to each battery box, the dynamoes were built with magnets on the inside that would rapidly spin around by using a shaft that would spin on the generator itself, causing the spinning magnets to hit other magnets that stood still, generating electricity, the dynamoes were also built to provide rapid charging, the dynamoes were connected to the box which had an inbuilt limiter which was needed to ensure that the batteries didn't overload due to the large amount of electricity, which then gave the electricity to the batteries.
All in all, a total of 12 batteries was on it and required, all batteries were 12 volts but if you connected them in series you could easily increase the voltage by doubling it as it was just regular car batteries, the batteries were also responsible for spreading electricity throughout the railcar, as it did have an inner part where they could store things or just take a break if it was cold outside or whatever reason they might have to stay inside the railgun car, after the body was 12 meters tall so it was fairly big, with a width of 8 meters.
The reishi generator was the one that ensured that the gun could move up and down, aswell as it allowed the railgun to move and controlled the stabilization cylinders and the brake system on the railcar.
"Good, it's just what we need, in Soul Society they were a bit of a hazzle." Chad stated firmly, pointing at the gun's former inability to rotate.
"But there is no doubt that they were effective regardless in terms of firepower and support once they were in line of fire." Aizen stated.
"There is no doubt about their capabilities once they are inside the line of fire, and I'm not questioning the weapons potential once it is used, but a limited line of fire is more of a burden then it is handy." Chad replied.
Aizen agreed with that but never responded to it as he watched the stabilization cylinders retract as the gun was to be moved back into storage, most likely to return to the Soul Society East as a support asset once the fighting starts for full, there had been a few skirmishes around, but only with hungry hollows, there was no sign of the Dominion yet and they had an obstacle to pass by aswell.
The hellspawn was moving across a river surrounded by a forest, this caused the Soul Society detachment to create a F.O.B or Forwards Operating Base where they were ready to engage any hellspawn that came close to them, aswell as it created a buffer zone between the hellspawn and the fortress.
The Wandenreich had also begun to deploy their bombers and airships in earnest, two airships were already deployed to the F.O.B and the bombers were flying several sorties with large quantities bombs to burn the forest in order to reduce the habitat of the hellspawn and allow the ground infantry to get a better field of vision inside the forest as they sent out several recon squads.
Usually they deployed about 6 bombers per sortie, it wasn't much but with their capability to drop as many bombs as they pleased, 6 bombers were a lot of bombs dropped on several key areas, the idea to use modified bombs was considered but was outright refused for if a group of hellspawn was noticed, they could blow them up and burn the rest of them with the standard bomb, which was partially effective as their regenerative capabilities came into play, blowing them up worked wonders, as for the rest that caught fire on the other hand.
Well, they didn't burn to death due to their regeneration, but they did burn rather well, so having them run around in a panic, igniting even more of the forest was rather effective to burn down the forest, the only problem they had was that the forest was just too damn big, but with the help of the hellspawn they managed to make the fires big aswell, of course that caused other problems such as aerial field of view to be exposed but for now it was manageable.
"Impressive, all have been upgraded?" Ichigo asked, finally saying something.
"Yes your majesty." Erwig responded.
"Good work, get them ready for whenever they might be needed." Ichigo ordered as Erwig did as ordered.
"Now then... To the west branch." Ichigo said as he turned to leave.
Silbern Royal Bedroom
***Several Moments Later***
"Let go of me! I have a job to do!" Bambietta yelled out as she struggled.
Bambietta was lying on the floor, Candice and Liltotto held her down from going straight to kindergarden, which would have been very bad considering the state Bambietta was in, Candice had just relight all her fuses.
"What's all this ruckus?" Ichigo asked as he entered only to be surprised by what he saw.
After Bambietta's dilemma and apparent solution was brought to light, Ichigo couldn't help but to be completely dumbfounded by what he had heard, he just looked at Bambietta with the most dumbfounded expression he could ever get.
"Seriously Candice... It took you one hour to calm her down yesterday, so why would you ever relight her fuses?" Ichigo asked as he turned his glance at Candice.
"W-well..." Candice replied but was unable to properly respond.
"Anyways we have to leave, so let's go." Ichigo said as he helped Bambietta up.
"But if we don't act now someone might defile her!" Bambietta said loudly.
"Well if you keep this up she's only going to hate and despise you at the end for being too overprotective... You have to let her live her life as she wants." Ichigo said firmly.
This caused Bambietta to freeze up, she knew that Ichigo was right, and that she had to be able to live her life as she wanted, but Bambietta was definitely not ready to let her cute little sister go just yet.
"Besides, she isn't going to get married yet anyways, there are still many more years to go." Ichigo stated.
"But what if she...She..." Bambietta said clearly worried.
"She's four... Four years old... Do you really think she'll even consider such acts?.. Besides there are guards with her and they would never allow such actions." Ichigo said sternly, causing Bambietta to finally calm down.
"Y-yeah... You're right..." Bambietta said as she calmed down.
"If you're ready then let's go, otherwise we'll be late." Ichigo said, rather annoyed as he looked at Candice for causing this situation.
"Right..." Bambietta said.
"Did you inform them of our alternate entry?" Ichigo asked Candice.
"I did, all the preperations on both ends are ready." Candice replied.
"Good, mom, Yuzu and Karin?" Ichigo asked Liltotto.
"They left as planned to Karakura town so that the the princesses can continue school in the world of the living, the A.N.U has already taken care of memory alterations, additional security forces has been deployed to Fort Karakura and the surrounding areas, the K.G has sent a larger detachment and the regular forces patrol the outskirts of Karakura town, scanners and the QSR-5 are on constant sweeps." Liltotto stated.
"Good, then all is in order." Ichigo said as he turned to leave.
Yuzu and Karin didn't want to change schools to the Wandenreich, but wanted to live a more normal school life in the world of the living as it was a suitable accomidation for them, they had friends and people they knew in the world of the living, so Ichigo agreed to the accomidations as it was probably better for them this way, Masaki would accompany them to ensure that they had someone with them.
Bambietta followed shortly after as the two headed for the motorpool where a large motorcade was waiting for them, they would leave through the gate of the sun in the tower and enter the outskirts of reverse London, where a slight military detachment from the Wandenreich was already located to secure the position accompanied by local police units a bit further away.
Silbern Airbase
***Royal Aircraft 1 Cockpit.***
But using the vehicles wasn't the only thing that would be arriving in reverse London, as one of their trips would be far away from the city itself and would probably be taken tomorrow, to travel using ground vehicles would take many hours, so with an agreement with the west branch who had also intended the same thing, Silbern Airbase opened up the hangar doors to the royal aircraft, the 747 inside it.
Several servants from Silbern had already been cleared and transported to the airbase to accompany the aircraft, the airbase had also stocked up on food and drinks aswell as other necessities inside the aircraft, the escort was about 50 wingmen in total, all of whom was located in a special area in the belly of the aircraft where a hatch where they could enter and exit midflight was located, the wingmen was actually royal guardsmen in a wingman uniform as it was more suited for flight operations as they were elite fighters and could better protect the aircraft then the regular wingmen, so when doing wingmen duty they were nicknamed the royal wingmen, when not in flight they would assist in guarding the aircraft day and night while it was on the ground in another airport or location then it's homebase, which was Silbern Airbase, when it was in the airbase the royal wingmen would just be royal guardsmen that would be recalled back to the tower.
Usually they were picked out in terms of fighting skills with the Vollstandig aswell as a lottery in the tower on who would accompany the aircraft as regular guardsmen inside the aircraft at all times as the aircraft had more guards then just the wingmen after all.
In the cockpit was four pilots from the airforce, two main pilots and two backup pilots just in case something happened that would cause an emergency, after all, four heads were better then two, the aircraft also had a crew from the O.D.K in it's military command where Ichigo could command the entire military from the aircraft, aswell as communications experts that handled communications and so on, which was also one of the main reasons why the Wandenreich wanted to use their own aircraft, because they were at war, and if something happened that needed Ichigo's immediate attention, they had secured communications and a command room where Ichigo could oversee any potential threat or situation even while the aircraft was on the ground, allowing Ichigo to command the military in warfare while conducting a state visit, ensuring a good multitask role, Kisuke was the man in charge there, so he would come to the west branch himself as he was in charge of ensuring that everything with the aircraft went smoothly.
The stairs to the aircraft that allowed you to enter was manifested through a manifestation device, utilizing this technology allowed them to ensure that the aircraft would be exposed to a bare minimum of ground crew as that was easier to keep track off, they didn't want any potential sabotage on the aircraft after all, and usually only the personnel at Silbern Airbase had been security checked and cleared to approach the royal aircrafts whenever they wanted while under supervision from A.N.U personnel.
"SA-7100, ready to taxi." The pilot said into the radio.
SA-7100 was the actual registration number of the aircraft as every aircraft had their own registration, SA stood for Silbern Air, and was registered in the Silbern Region, with a Royal on board it would usually be called Air Royal Two, though the number could be higher depending on how many aircraft was in the air with royals, but the maximum as of present would be up to Air Royal Five or Air Royal Six if you consider the modified royal aircrafts but the actual number could potentially be higher as it depended on how many members were in the royal family and how many of them were flying, unless Ichigo was on board which it would then be called Air Royal One, which was a callsign always reserved for Ichigo when he would be flying, regardless of whether other royal or not was on, it would still be Air Royal One as long as Ichigo was on board, the same applied to the other callsigns, as they wouldn't change number based on how many royals were on board.
For instance, if all five aircrafts were in use by the royal family but Ichigo was in his home, then the aircrafts would go from Air Royal Two to Air Royal Six, but if Ichigo used one of them while the others were in use by the rest of the royal family, then the callsigns would be Air Royal One to Air Royal Five, the name Air Royal was always reserved for an aircraft being used by the royal family, but the air royal callsign didn't have limited number, because while the number was limited with the royal aircrafts, there was always the possibility of using commercial flights.
Example, if Sabrina was to take a trip with her kindergarden or in the future, with her school where they used aircraft to get from point A to point B, and Sabrina was determined to fly commercial with her class or her friends and refused to use the royal aircraft, then the commercial flight with full of civilians would then change from it's registration number to royal two if she was the only one flying, giving the aircraft special privelieges and high priority in every situation, even though the K.G would most likely compromise to avoid using a commercial flight, making such a scenario extremly unlikely as they'd rather throw Sabrina and her class on the royal aircraft for safety reasons instead of using commercial flights if pushed against the wall, but the callsign and numbers depended on who was on the aircraft.
The five royal aircrafts had the registrations as following, SA-7000, SA-7100, SA-7200, SA-7300, SA-7400, and currently they used SA-7100 since it was already in the hangar, and they didn't want to get the elevator down to get a lower number on the registration as they were all completely identical, the only difference was the registration located on small numbers and digits on the tailfin and that's it, and seeing as there was no royal on board or anything, it didn't hold the callsign of Air Royal, they didn't get any special privelieges or priority as without a royal or the monarch, they were just SA-7100, namely a regular aircraft preparing for a flight, that's all it was now.
"SA-7100 you're cleared to taxi to runway 0-1E, go by taxiway B and enter through B3." The tower said.
"SA-7100 copy, taxiing to runway 0-1E, going by taxiway B and entering through B3." The pilot said into the radio as he pulled up the throttle.
"Hah, what other runway do we have?" The second pilot asked amused.
"It's protocol, besides another two more is being built, and with the runway we have being two way and going east and west, there is two names for it depending on where we are to land and take of, namely 0-1E and 0-1W" The third pilot responded as he felt the aircraft move.
"SA-7100, rolling." The pilot said into the radio.
"Atleast they didn't tell us to hold short of runway 0-1E." The fourth pilot said.
"Yeah... Waiting on the edge of the taxiway to enter the runway, that sucks." The pilot said.
"Atleast we got a straight line." The third pilot said as he looked at the taxiway which was a network of signs going alphabetically.
The system was complex but simple, the main taxiways which usually went alongside the runway and was rather long was assigned a letter, it was the intersections that had a letter and a number, the intersections were smaller taxiways between the main taxiways and usually connected directly to the runway, they could use the intersections to switch between the main taxiways, or just to taxi of the runway at the closest intersection when they had landed as they wanted to clear the runway quickly, if there was more taxyways then the alphabet would allow then they would just add another letter, such as AA or AB for example, aswell as the intersections would be called AA1 or AA2, but the names of the intersections always varied depending on the taxiway you used, so if they used taxi way B to get to taxiway C, they would for instance exit taxiway B through B5 and come on taxiway C through C5 for instance even though it was the same intersection.
Finally arriving at B3, they turned the aircraft using the nosewheel steering which was activated by a button in the cockpit, usually located on the yoke which was the steering wheel of the aircraft, but it is called a yoke, this allowed them to use the rudder pedals, which was pedals they pressed to cause the rudder to turn, to also function as the steering for the front landing gear, that is how aircraft move on the ground.
"SA-7100, requesting take off." The pilot said into the radio.
"SA-7100, you're cleared for take off, fly to 24000 at 254, wind, 4 meters at 154." The tower said.
"SA-7100 copies, taking off." The pilot said.
"Set flaps 5." The pilot said as he put the throttles at 40%, allowing the engines to spool up.
"Flaps 5." The second pilot replied.
"TOGA." The pilot said as he activated the TOGA function, also known as Take-Off/Go-Around function, which caused the autopilot to give full throttle and they started to move.
All four pilots watched as the aircraft increased speed, no one saying a word as this was a aviation only situation where all focus would be on flying the aircraft.
"V1." The second pilot said as they entered the speed and range where they would probably be unable to stop the take off.
"Rotate." The second pilot said as the stick was smoothly taken backwards to generate lift.
"V2." The second pilot said again as the aircraft began to ascend.
"Gear up." The pilot said.
"Gear up." The second pilot replied as he pulled the landing gear lever.
After a while the pilot said something again.
"Flaps one." The pilot said.
"Flaps one." The second pilot replied and they had successfully taken off.
Soul Society West Branch (Reverse London Outskirts)
***Sometime Later***
A small platoon of 45 men had been dispatched from the West Branch detachment, they had secured the area around someone who was sitting there, covered with a blanket and a hood, Inoue was completely hiding her face, the soldiers had been ordered to leave her alone and let her sit there for unknown reasons, and they were not permitted to ask her any questions or even touch her, let alone see her face as it was covered.
Shortly after the schatten opened and the motorcade arrived, Ichigo's personal limousine entered aswell, Ichigo, Bambietta, Chad and Aizen was all in it, Ulrik was driving it as Aizen was seated besides Ulrik in the front.
Ichigo exited the vehicle and took Inoue with him without blowing her cover and that was that as the platoon began to pack up and leave, they then approached the police escort of reverse London who then would escort them to the government building, which was none other then buckingham palace itself.
Seeing as they didn't have a queen and the Soul King was the true monarch of the entire Soul Society, though he was dead, the government had opted to use the buckingham palace as their workplace as no one was actually using it.
Regardless they were finally underway.
"It's been a while." Ichigo said as Inoue took off her hood and the windows got darker.
"Yeah it has." Inoue said with her usual cheery expression.
"That voice... I see..." Aizen said as he quickly realized what was happening and who that voice belonged to.
"You'll be happy to hear that your brother is doing fine, atleast physically... The A.N.U and the research division believes he was re-educated." Ichigo said.
"I know he was... He would never have joined the Dominion unless he wasn't." Inoue replied.
"Yeah... Sorry that this all had to go out on you though." Ichigo replied.
"Don't worry about it, I'm fine with this solution, I even got my brother back." Inoue said smilingly.
"Have you accomplished your objectives?" Ichigo asked curiously.
"I have, it wasn't easy but there is poison in Gabrin's personal wine collection now, he is a heavy drinker after all." Inoue replied.
"Ahh, so that explains our victories, they have a drunk commander-in-chief..." Ichigo replied amused.
"So how are the arrancars and espada doing?" Inoue asked.
"Not good, they're still in a comatose state with no sign of recovery, quite frankly I am curious as to what the hell happened to them?" Ichigo asked.
"It all started with a meeting, but in reality it was an ambush, the commissars injected something into Harribel and Nel, it was successful on Harribel but Nel failed somehow, not sure what happened but it was a drug meant to subjugate hollows, making them view us as allies and they obey us without questions, when it failed on Nel they took her bracelet and shattered it, leaving her in a weak form before locking her away, Grimmjow was a bit of a problem but they managed to inject him, it partially succeeded." Inoue replied.
"Any details on this drug?" Bambietta asked.
"I got a lot of information here." Inoue said as she opened her coat, revealing a satchel full of documents.
Taking the satchel, Ichigo opened it and looked at it's content, he was surprised to see the size of the satchel as it was full of documents, this caused everyone to be curious.
"Military operations, defense plans, military locations, military projects and weaponry, even Gabrin's personal information aswell as the information on their homeworld aswell as information on every commissar... This is more then I even dared hoped for." Ichigo said stunned over how well Inoue managed to do her job.
"The two kids you found, they're mutated fullbringers from birth caused by the hellspawn as you call them, though the Dominion calls them demons and the mutated fullbringers devils." Inoue replied.
"Good, is there anything of interest?" Ichigo asked.
"What isn't of interest? They're being treated as the Quincies they captured." Inoue said, a word that caused Ichigo's undivided attention.
"What do you mean?" Chad asked.
"For mutated fullbringers and Quincies, they're being viewed as inferior, slavery and human trafficking is legal, going so far that Quincy families are being seperated and sold off like livestock, sex slavery or other forms of slavery isn't uncommon when it comes to them, some even buy children to torture for their own amusement and show it off in public as they torture innocent men, women and children to death as they scream." Inoue said, much to the shock of everyone in the vehicle, excluding Aizen of course but he is who he is.
Suddenly Ichigo's fury and anger was felt by everyone, Ichigo gripped the satchel tightly in a moment of fury as he began to think deeply.
"The mutated fullbringers have it worse, they're lucky just to be alive, when they're born many are being discarded and thrown into a mass grave to starve to death as infants, sometimes even animals comes to eat them alive, and if they do survive they live on the streets or are used as slaves, regardless their lives aren't safe, many who live in former nations annexed by the Dominion support the Dominion and have a superiority complex." Inoue replied as Ichigo had heard enough, he even had the evidence he wanted.
"Then we'll eradicate those thoughts in the Dominion... Forcefully!" Ichigo said in a moment of anger, the rest of the group was stunned except Aizen who wasn't that surprised.
"There is also several more matters that needs to be brought to light." Inoue said as another folder came out.
Ichigo and Bambietta looked at it and the decision was easily made.
"We'll let Pascal handle this situation." Ichigo stated.
"Then there is this one." Inoue said as a folder that got Ichigo's interest severly as it was listed as top secret, even higher then their military secrets.
"Project Origin?" Ichigo said as he looked at the folder.
"If you thought what you just heard was something straight out of a horror movie, you have no clue what's in store for you once you open that folder." Inoue said as Ichigo got really curious and opened it.
Ichigo and Bambietta was stunned, same with Chad as they read the file, it was mostly a personnel file with a single photo of a young girl, dark hair, and she had the surname Lennarion, evidently it was Gabrin's first daughter, and with the powers her daughter got combined, her powers were extremly alarming, so she was made into a research project, which went terribly wrong, so they put her into a comatose state and sealed her away, and this was nearly three hundred years ago.
"Aizen... Look at this." Ichigo said as the folder was handed forwards.
Aizen grabbed it and looked at the folder intently, he viewed every detail under a close eye, Aizen might not have been shocked prior, but now he was, he had never seen anything like this, this was extremly alarming.
"The capability to create objects through imagination... Though certainly weaker then yours, it isn't to be underestimated, this girls fullbring is her brain itself, granting her psychic powers that rivals that of even true gods... From the looks of it she is solely responsible for creating the hellspawn by imagining them to life followed by psychic powers, she even created such a complex virus by her imagination..." Aizen said stunned, as not even he had thought of something like this, but he quickly realized the hazard.
"Sounds a lot like Gremmy..." Bambietta replied.
"Well it isn't... While Gremmy could make things out of his imagination, he couldn't melt human flesh by willing it, or sticking them to the roof by altering gravity followed by additional powers..." Aizen stated.
"Sounds more like a horror movie then Gremmy are you asking me..." Chad stated.
"That wouldn't be too far fetched... Gremmy had a limit on his abilities, which is why he died, this girl doesn't... They sealed her away in a combined magical seal in a vault as she was in a comatose state, but even though it seems that the seal is extremly powerful, it is unable to contain her powers as she subconsciously uses them, even being in her proximity is causing symptoms such as hallucinations, nausea, dizzyness and so on, and that's just being in her presence... No this isn't something Gremmy would ever be able to do, this is just too far." Aizen replied.
"Agreed... I'm pulling the plug Inoue, we'll announce that you have always worked for the empire as my personal spy and I'll pardon you after the meeting, I'll also promote you to marshall... You're going back to Silbern." Ichigo stated firmly.

"Judging from the other folder Ichigo has, the Dominion are aware of a spy amongst them, they're looking for you, which might be why the A.N.U has been unable to see anything through the bacteria, it might be jamming, you go back now you die, simple as that." Bambietta said.
"Agreed, we now have information on the Dominion stronghold in the Soul Society and we know where they are, we'll proceed with operation Avalanche, an amphibious assault past the forest can work, and we'll use the hellspawn forest as a natural defence against Dominion troops and stop all bombing sorties on the forest." Aizen replied, as operation avalanche was the Quincy operation to assault the Dominion stronghold in the Soul Society east.
"Agreed, we'll also move up operation Highlord." Ichigo said, as operation Highlord, also gotten it's name from Overlord, was the Quincy invasion of the Dominion using 30 million soldiers, 300.000 bombers, 20 million artillery pieces, every piece of the navy they had availeble, as many airships they could get, ensuring the biggest invasion in the history of existance would commence.
"The origin facility should be a primary objective." Chad stated.
"It already is." Ichigo and Bambietta said in unison.
To be continued.

Highlord as mentioned is inspired by operation Overlord.
