As he activated Senjutsu, Tatsuma maintained the structure of Rukia's soul and slowly repaired the wound.
After that, he took out a small bottle from his storage space. This was the Phenex Tears he had snatched from Riser's Queen, Yubelluna, a month ago when he participated in the Rating Ga.
As the most precious recovery item in the Underworld, Phenex Tears can heal a person's entire injuries in a short period of ti and are priceless.
Opening the bottle cap and giving it to Rukia, Tatsuma also activated magic to repair her soul.
Senjutsu Magic Phenex Tears.
With the combined power of the three, the gap in Rukia's soul was quickly repaired, and she woke up from her coma.
"Tatsuma, what did you just do?"
Recalling the experience she had just gone through, Rukia covered her head with an expression of lingering fear.
"I feel like my soul was stabbed, and a huge gap was torn open."
Tatsuma said, "That ans your intuition is very accurate."
"?"
What does that an?
Rukia was stunned for a mont, then looked up and t Tatsuma's gaze.
After a few seconds, she took a deep breath and asked, "Just in case, I'll ask, how did you take out the hōgyoku?"
Tatsuma said, "The simplest way to take sothing out of a safe is to open a hole in the safe."
"Are you trying to kill !"
"Don't worry, there will be no sequelae."
Rukia complained in dissatisfaction, "Is this about whether there are sequelae? Even if you didn't have any other way, you should have at least said sothing before you did it."
Being ntally prepared to be cut and being suddenly stabbed without preparation are two completely different things.
Her soul being torn apart without any warning, Rukia still felt a faint phantom pain when she recalled it now.
Tatsuma said, "Don't be angry. Actually, I was trying to distract you before I did it."
"Were you? I feel like you didn't do anything."
"Your feeling is right, because I didn't think of anything."
"..."
Since you've said that, what else can I say?
Looking at the unmoving Tatsuma in front of her, Rukia lost all strength and ans, her expression resentful.
There was nothing she could do, after all, she was the one who had actively suggested that Tatsuma help her take out the hōgyoku. No matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only complain verbally a few tis and couldn't pursue it further.
At this mont, Tatsuma seed to have a change of heart, and raised a finger to suggest, "How about this? I'll help you with activating potential as compensation."
"Huh! Is that possible?" Rukia's attention was instantly diverted.
After getting Tatsuma's confirmation, Rukia imdiately showed a change of expression.
"Oh dear. Tatsuma, you should have said so earlier. It was all a misunderstanding just now, I was just talking nonsense after waking up, don't mind it."
Xenovia, who had been watching from the side, couldn't help but speak up, "It's not that humble, is it?"
Rukia retorted, "I think you are the one who doesn't understand."
The scene of Tatsuma helping Ichigo awaken when they first t was still vivid in her mind. Although Tatsuma's subsequent help in awakening Orihi didn't result in such astonishing improvent, the change was still visible to the naked eye.
Now that the opportunity for a strength bosst was right in front of her, she had to consider if this might be the only opportunity in her life.
Restoring the glory of the Kuchiki clan is her duty.
"Tatsuma, let's begin!"
"Don't rush, I'll prepare."
Tatsuma opened the trait inventory and asked while flipping through it, "Rukia, what do you want to do with the hōgyoku?"
Rukia said, "I'm giving it to you. Keeping it would only bring trouble."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Tatsuma's finger paused, shifting from the white trait in front of him to the blue trait area.
[Ice Elent Affinity (Blue): Moderately increases ice elent affinity, moderately increases ice elent resistance, speeds up learning ice-attribute skills.]
Hmm... this one's good.

[Rukia Kuchiki]

[Extraordinary Soul (Purple): A soul that has evolved under the influence of the hōgyoku. Moderately increases total Reiatsu, training effect 300%.]
"Ohhh... Power is surging out."
Rukia looked excited, carefully sensing the continuously growing Reiatsu within her body.
After a few seconds, the montum around her stopped increasing, and her Reiatsu had increased by about fifty percent.
Besides that, Rukia felt that the connection between her and her Zanpakutō had deepened significantly. Vaguely, she felt as if her Zanpakutō was calling her na.
Bankai?
A word she had never dared to think about in her daily life suddenly popped into Rukia's mind.
Sode no Shirayuki was different from ordinary Zanpakutō. The Zanpakuto spirit preferred to stay quietly by itself.
In this situation, Sode no Shirayuki calling out to et her?
The only possibility Rukia could think of was Bankai.
Thinking of this, Rukia's spirit was roused. She imdiately drew her Zanpakutō and sat down on the spot.
"Tatsuma, I'm going to et Sode no Shirayuki. We can talk about the hōgyoku and Aizen later."
"Alright."
Tatsuma nodded slightly, raising his hand to set up a barrier around Rukia to prevent her from being disturbed.
After that, he turned his head to look at Xenovia, who was watching from the side. "Do you want to awaken too?"
"If I can beco stronger, then of course I do."
Xenovia unbuttoned her top, revealing a pair of pure white, flawless treasures.
"Co on, I know the rules. To beco stronger, you have to pay a price, right? If it's you, I can accept it."
"...?"
What exactly did you understand?
