Yoru Machi: How Is This Any Different from Giving Him Free Kills?

Watching Yoru Machi leave, then glancing at the six-thousand-degree wall of flames around him and Wonderweiss drooling beside him, Aizen ultimately chose not to act rashly.

As the oldest and strongest fire-type Zanpakuto in Soul Society, Ryujin Jakka was indeed powerful, but it was not enough to trap Aizen.

Yet Aizen was in no hurry to escape. Since the Captain-Commander wanted to use Ryujin Jakka to contain him, then Aizen would let him. After all, he too was waiting—for Tier Harribel to bring the souls from Rukongai here.

Meanwhile, Yoru Machi, whom the Captain-Commander had ordered to pursue Ichimaru Gin and Tousen Kaname, was in an exceptionally good mood.

On the surface, he was fighting two against one, and Ichimaru Gin and Tosen were both Aizen's right-hand men. Their strength was certainly far greater than that of the so-called Espada.

But as for who was truly going to be fighting two against one, that was hard to say.

After all, Aizen was now completely engulfed by Ryujin Jakka, while Yoru Machi and the others had traveled far enough that they could even be said to have left the main battlefield.

"I've disliked that guy for a long time. This is the perfect chance to get rid of him."

After using Shunpo to flee across more than half of Karakura Town, Tousen Kaname, who had initially lagged more than half a body length behind Ichimaru Gin, took the initiative to stop. He no longer wished to keep running.

In Tousen Kaname's view, turning around and fleeing earlier had been far too humiliating.

The Captain-Commander was the strongest Shinigami in two thousand years and
