Why was he born?

Hollows had names, many of them had names they made for themselves, but some hollows kept the names they had as humans. Be they female or male hollows, all hollows did have names to them, and rare though as it may be, some hollows were born. It was even rarer than a Vasto Lorde, a Hollow being born naturally.

Well, unnaturally.

It was similar to how even Soul Reapers could give birth and have children.

He only had a mother though, so his birth was even stranger by the standards of the rare Hollow births. His mother had been a Vasto Lorde with her Hollow Hole being located on her womb, so she was not able to birth a child normally. She also did not consume souls, ever since becoming a Vasto Lorde, she refused to consume the souls of others to grow her strength further. Even though the hunger was unbearable at times, she didn't eat, even though she allowed her group top feed and would kill, she did not eat.

She only ate a single time.

The one time she ate, and it was not a soul.

It was just raw energy, energy that came out of a crack in space and time.

An energy that was made out of Half-Spirit Energy, Half-Physical Energy, and then fused together with a third unknown energy. She Hollows could only eat things made out of spirit energy, she was unable tro digest the raw energy. She gained faint memories of the energy, and while she could not digest it, it stayed inside of her body and developed using her own spirit energy.

So she eventually gave birth.

She gave birth to the only Vasto Lorde child ever born, and one born without a father, the act of sex, or even the need for a womb. She named him after the memories she retained from the piece of soul energy she swallowed.

Uzumaki Naruto.

"... I hate this place."

He hated Huecco Mundo, but his mother didn't want him to stray too far from her. He was young for a Hollow, even younger for a Vasto Lorde, and she was afraid that if he left Huecco Mundo that he would get in trouble. His body was not fully matured, since he had not grown into his adult form.

He looked around the age of 16.

166cm tall with uncharacteristically peach colored skin for a hollow, and he had bright blond hair that he either inheritted from his mother, or got from his soul. His lower body was completely covered in bone armor from the waist down, and he had a hole that went through the center of his stomach. His right shoulder had a bone shoulder pad with a spiral on the front, while his left shoulder had no spiral, and the bone shoulder pads were connected to armor that went over his neck and collarbone, leading to a mask that covered the lower half of his face. A mask shaped similar to a jaw.

His body was thin, because he had never eaten.

His bright blue eyes had a slight green edge to them, and he looked at the white sands around him in anger.

He hated this world.

He hated Huecco Mundo.

He hated being a Hollow.

He didn't allow himself to act like a hollow, and he didn't allow himself to consume other hollows. He hated the thought of his kind killing each other, and even more he hated the very fact that his kind existed to eat innocent human souls. He hated the white sand, and the eternal night with no sun, but it was all there was. There was no warmth, and only hunger, with happiness being reserved for only those strong enough to never need to worry about being eaten.

He felt wrong, because he was born the villain.

He was forbidden by his mother from leaving Huecco Mundo, though he had the ability to go to the Human Realm and the Soul Society if he wanted to go.

'I'm starving... I hate this hunger... I want it to go away.'

He was Uzumaki Naruto, named after the piece of soul that gave rise to his own soul. The piece of soul that his mother had used in order to birth him. A soul piece of soul that was born outside of the reincarnation cycle. His mother gleamed the name from the energy that gave life to him, and that was part of the reason why she didn't want him to go to the Soul Society or Human Realm. He was unique.

His mother refused to let him eat, though he didn't want to eat. Eating meant that he would consume other souls, and he refused to do that. His mother wished for him to retain a pure soul, untarnished by the appetite of hollows.

"Raaaaaah!" Naruto stood up and opened the jaw of his mask, revealing his mouth underneath it, and the whisker marks on his cheeks. A yellow ball formed in front of his mouth, before he blasted a petrified tree nearby and reduced it to ashes. He formed another yellow ball and turned his head, before he blasted a boulder to pieces with a yellow beam of spirit energy. He whipped his head around and looked at a hill of sand, before he formed a third ball and blasted it, scattering the sands to the winds.

Thinking about his hunger got him pissed.

"... I'll be back... that should have scared everyone away." Naruto closed his mask and looked around. He was sure he scattered his spirit energy all over the area, and made it seem like he was throwing a tantrum. He extended his hand, and a black rip in space opened up in front of him. He stepped through it into the black void.

He liked to sneak out of Huecco Mundo.

-In the Soul Society-

The portal opened and closed quickly.

Naruto jumped through it, and his mask twisted into a smile in response to his emotions. He felt a cool breeze and sunshine whenever he entered the soul society, so it was worth the trouble when it came to tricking his family. He quickly ran over towards the bushes nearby, and he started to pull some clothes out of the bushes.

Black hakama pants, and a white kimono top with an orange obi to hold it together. He covered up all of the armor on his body with the clothes, expect for the armor over his feet, which looked like shoes anyway. Taking the armor off his body was a painful process, so better just allow the pants to cover his feet. He grabbed an orange scarf, and started to wrap it around his neck with the smile never leaving his face. He wrapped the entire lower half of his face with the scarf, and made sure his never was wrapped up as well.

He took these clothes from a soul killed by a hollow.

Not him.

He contained his spirit pressure as much as possible, because he didn't want to get discovered. Sadly, as a Vasto Lorde, his spirit pressure was equal to that of a captain class shinigami. If he didn't lower it, then he would get swarmed by enemies. Even the small amount of time that he used to get dressed would attract shinigami to his general location.

Naruto jumped into a tree and landed on a branch.

He was correct, because moments later 4 shinigami appeared.

"Hey, you, did you see a hollow in the area." A man wearing a white haori over his black shinigami uniform asked when he saw Naruto in the tree. It only took them seconds to hurry their asses into gear and gather together a captain and several shinigami together. He was followed by a small teen girl with blonde hair, and a badge on her arm.

'A captain... a different one than usual.' Naruto thought.

He waved to the captain.

"No, I haven't seen a hollow."

The man smiled at Naruto.

"No, I guess you have not seen the hollow... hey, Hiyori, why don't you go on with the others. I want to talk with our friend here." The Captain stated as he gestured for his allies to leave. He looked at Naruto with a friendly smile, and he seemed to have his guard dropped. He could attack the man if he wanted to, but Naruto didn't feel like he was in any danger. "... You're holding back quite a lot of spirit pressure... that is pretty impressive. Even holding it back, your spirit pressure is at least equal to a 3rd seat."

Naruto sighed in relief when the other shinigami left while the captain was talking, since what he was talking about was no concern to them. Naruto jumped out of the tree he was hanging out in, and made sure his disguise didn't slip.

"... I'm not sure what you mean."

"I'm sure you don't... but still, you're not even a shinigami, but you have such high spirit pressure... ah... I guess I was wrong... I judged it wrong. It seems it's actually at the level of 6th seat." The captain corrected himself when Naruto suppressed his spirit energy even further. He groaned in pain as he pushed down his levels as far as he could safely go. He couldn't suppress his spirit energy any lower than that.

He misjudged himself.

He thought he could go weaker.

"Uzumaki Naruto... and you are?"

"I'm the Captain of Squad 12... and even if you're spirit pressure is only at a 6th seat, that is still quite the achievement. Seated Officers are by no means weak... and you don't even have a zanpakuto... quite the achievement. Kisuke is my name." Kisuke introduced himself as he extended his hand to Naruto.

Naruto took his hand.

Shinigami were not his enemies.

"Well, Captain Kisuke, a pleasure."

"You seem tense Naruto." Kisuke spoke casually, and he smiled just as casually as he spoke. Naruto was interrupted from speaking before he could respond when his stomach gave a growl, and Kisuke looked at Naruto with a raised eyebrow. "... Lets grab something to eat, we're out in the boonies, so nobody will notice... you want a bowl of ramen?" Kisuke offered Naruto with a welcoming smile.

Naruto felt himself pulled to answer.

He was an idiot.

"Yes, that sounds awesome."

-Later-

"Man, you've got quite the healthy appetite!" Kisuke laughed as he watched Naruto eating between the gap in his scarf, leaving only enough room to eat and not enough for his face to be revealed. Kisuke was finished eating and had an empty bowl in front of him, and he watched in amusement as Naruto enjoyed his meal.

'This is so good!'

He loved food.

"Can I have another?" Naruto asked Kisuke with excitement leaking out of his voice in waves.

"Sure, have as much as you want... but slow down. I want to have a conversation with you... like about your thoughts on hollows." Kisuke asked Naruto.

Naruto stopped eating.

"... Hollows need to be exterminated for thier own good... that is all there is to say." Naruto spoke the truth in his mind, and that was it. He gave no information other than that, and Kisuke was silent for a few entire minutes.

"... Sounds like you want to become a shinigami."

"I can't become one... I don't have a zanpakuto... and I can't get one." Naruto would have loved to help purify his species like a shinigami, but he lacked the tools needed for the job. Kisuke looked at Naruto with a raised eyebrow, before he leaned forward and grinned.

"Anyone can get one... even Hollows can get them... if the Soul Society allowed it to happen. You see, nobody is born with a Zanpakuto spirit... well... nobody has yet been born with a spirit." Kisuke started to whisper as he explained something to Naruto, something that he was sure that nobody outside of the shinigami were suppose to know.

Naruto started to listen.

"... What?"

"All it takes is getting your hands on an Asauchi, and feeding it your spirit energy over time. When you enter the academy, they loan you an Asauchi... and when you graduate, they give it to you." Kisuke started to explain to Naruto.

"... You mean..."

"Anyone who gets their hands on an Asauchi, can develop Shinigami powers... and create a Zanpakuto for themselves. Eventually, as you train and bond with your Asauchi, it will become a Zanpakuto and bond to your soul. Shinigami are shinigami, because we create zanpakuto... ANYONE with spirit pressure can become a shinigami." Kisuke could see that Naruto was interested in what he was saying.

"Even a hollow?"

"If a Hollow ever managed to get an Asauchi, then with enough time, even they would aquire shinigami powers." Kisuke confirmed for Naruto. "... are you interested in joining the Gotei 13... I can write you a letter of recommendation. Maybe skip school and just go straight into joining a squad... I'm sure somebody with 6th seat levels of spirit pressure would be welcomed." Kisuke assured Naruto with a pat on the shoulder.

Naruto stared into an empty ramen bowl.

"Can I think about it?"

"Sure... take all the time you need... why don't we meet up in 3 days, and you can tell me your answer, or if you need more time." Kisuke stated as Naruto stood up and started to leave.

He had a lot to think about.

Now to return to Huecco Mundo.

Chapter End!
Please Leave Me Lots of Nice Long Reviews, But No Flames Please!

1. It has never once been stated that a Hollow could NOT use an Asauchi, or develop shinigami powers.
2. Kenpachi took a dead shinigami's Asauchi, and then it later became his own Zanpakuto when it absorbed enough of his spirit energy.
If you want to argue with this, please tell me where it says it is impossible for hollows to develop zanpakuto.

Remember, Shinigami are not born with Zanpakuto spirits.
