Discussion: If the Innovate Clear user entered Bleach with their real soul, would they keep their Shinigami powers after leaving?

I've been thinking about a hypothetical scenario involving Innovate Clear from High School DxD, and I'd like to hear your thoughts.

As far as I know, Innovate Clear creates its own world/dimension, but I don't remember the light novels ever explicitly stating that the user only controls an avatar. It seems possible to interpret that the actual user enters the world.

I've been thinking about a hypothetical scenario involving Innovate Clear from High School DxD, and I'd like to hear your thoughts.

As far as I know, Innovate Clear creates its own world/dimension, but I don't remember the light novels ever explicitly stating that the user only controls an avatar. It seems possible to interpret that the actual user enters the world.

Now imagine this scenario:

  • The Innovate Clear user creates a world that follows the rules of Bleach.
  • They enter that world with their real soul, not a soul created by the Sacred Gear.
  • They go through the same events as Ichigo: they're attacked by a Hollow, survive, awaken Shinigami powers, and eventually become a Shinigami.
  • In Bleach, a Zanpakutō and a Shinigami's power are manifestations of the user's own soul.

So my question is:

After leaving the Innovate Clear dimension, would they still retain those Shinigami powers?

My reasoning is:

  • The canon states that things created within Innovate Clear's dimension cannot exist outside of it.
  • However, in this scenario, the user's soul wasn't created by the Sacred Gear—it already existed before entering the dimension.
  • Therefore, the Zanpakutō wouldn't be an external object created by the dimension, but rather a manifestation of the user's own soul, which underwent a permanent change while inside that world.

Would this interpretation be compatible with DxD's canon, or would Innovate Clear's limitations prevent it regardless?

If possible, I'd appreciate answers based on the official light novels rather than headcanon.
