Aizen, the Big Boss, Finally Appeared

Ding ding ding, ding ding ding, ring ring ring----

A series of crisp, melodious clanging sounds rang out, like a sudden Natsuhi downpour—the sound of tiny sword blades Shattering against Sword Qi.

This destruction does not diminish the power of Senbonzakura, because the Shattering blade is still under Byakuya Kuchiki's control; it only slightly increases the difficulty of his maneuvering.

Overall, Kenpachi Zaraki had the upper hand in this round of attacks, and he pressed his advantage, stepping forward to launch a further attack.

But as he gripped his sword with both hands, preparing to attack, he suddenly noticed a change in the color of his surroundings.

He instinctively looked up at the sky, only to be horrified to find that the sky was now a pink ocean of Senbonzakura.

The pink sword blades, obscuring the sky, formed clouds, creating a pink ocean as far as the eye could see.

[Jianjing: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi]

Byakuya Kuchiki dared not be negligent. The moment he finished preparing, he waved his hand downwards, controlling the petals that were flying all over the sky to gather into countless stars.

The points of light that make up a meteor are like a long sword composed of finely arranged blades. Because they can refract and reflect light to a great extent, they appear bright white, which is why they produce such dazzling starlight.

The gleaming longswords emitted a dazzling light, Hundred Plans of them hovering in the sky, forming neat geometric formations.

Then, under Byakuya's control, the longswords transformed into meteors that fell to the ground, creating a magnificent and awe-inspiring meteor shower.

Kenpachi Zaraki was ecstatic. "That's amazing! Such a magnificent sword technique! Captain Kuchiki, you're much better than that Ichigo!"

Ichigo Kurosaki: "----"

"Hahaha, Byakuya Kuchiki, I'm going to tell you a secret. I Kenpachi Zaraki, am not some useless piece of trash who can only attack!"

Kenpachi Zaraki's Spiritual Pressure increased once again, and a materialized Spiritual Pressure defense actually appeared. The super-strong golden Spiritual Pressure materialized into the shape of a giant skull.

It must be said that this giant skull looks just like a [Susanoo], effectively protecting Kenpachi Zaraki inside and isolating him from all external attacks.

The moment the gleaming meteor sword struck the skull, the two forces clashed violently.

The meteor sword, penetrating from top to bottom, used the impact of its fall to strike downwards with tremendous force, each strike penetrating deep into the golden skull.

In addition to exhibiting extremely strong defense, the golden skull also displayed terrifyingly high temperatures.

Once the meteor sword strikes to a certain depth, its Spirit Particles structure is burned away and completely loses its penetrating power.

"Tsk tsk tsk, really, it seems that apart from a few honest guys, the captains of the Gotei 13 are all quite formidable, secretly hiding their strength."

Shazo looked at Retsu Unohana beside him and asked, "Sister Hua, you've been hiding your strength too, haven't you?"

Unohana shook her head and laughed, "Is there anyone in Seireitei who can hide their true abilities better than you?"

"But when will Aizen appear?"

"If he doesn't come soon, the old man is going to throw a tantrum."

"Once the inferno that burns the city takes shape, you and I will have to Bankai to protect ourselves, and naturally we will no longer be able to hide."

Shazo Zuo pointed to the edge of the core battlefield. "Look, he's here."

Sure enough, right at the edge of the core area of the flame's Spiritual Pressure, Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, Kaname Tōsen appeared beside Rukia at some point.

Moreover, right in broad daylight, Aizen, the Fifth Division Captain known for his gentleness, smiled and reached into Rukia's chest, rummaging around inside her body, seemingly looking for something.

Rukia, on the other hand, had clearly lost control of her body.

She was like a puppet doll with its strings cut, her expression blank and her eyes vacant.

The vice-captains and Seated Officer, realizing something was wrong, surrounded Aizen around Rukia, but under his terrifying Spiritual Pressure, they couldn't get within a hundred meters of him.

In just two seconds, Aizen accurately located his target within Rukia's spirit body, carefully tucked it into his robes, and then revealed a relieved smile.

Even at this moment, Aizen's smile remained gentle, like a spring breeze, instantly inspiring goodwill in anyone who saw it.

As expected of the most prestigious BOSS in Myriad Worlds, even at the moment when his long-planned scheme succeeded, he could still smile without changing his expression, as if no one knew what he had done.

He smiled and raised his hand to greet all the Death God: "Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

"Aizen Sousuke!!!"

The moment Captain-Commander Yamamoto sensed Aizen's Spiritual Pressure, he realized he had been tricked from beginning to end, and he was naturally furious.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto stopped, and his two disciples, who were nearly killed, naturally stopped as well, because now their teacher's anger was truly intense.

The intense killing intent tainted the flames, turning their color from yellow to dark red.

But this doesn't mean the flame temperature has decreased; on the contrary, the flame temperature has increased.

When Sajin Komamura saw Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Kaname Tōsen, he was completely stunned.

After a few breaths, he realized that Aizen's previous death was a hoax, that he must have betrayed the Soul Society, and that Kaname Tōsen had also betrayed them.

Sajin Komamura could not accept this outcome.

Kaname Tōsen Sajin Komamura's only friend; how could someone so full of Justice betray him?

How could he betray us?!

But no matter how much Sajin Komamura resisted, the facts were the strongest and most irresistible force.

So he completely ignored the two Death God he was fighting and turned to pounce on Kaname Tōsen, but was stopped by an old but strong arm.

"Captain-Commander Yamamoto ----"

Sajin Komamura immediately stopped, even restraining his Black Rope Tensen Myōō, and obediently stood behind the Captain-Commander.

Aizen, who had witnessed this from afar, smiled with admiration, "Sajin Komamura is quite the good dog, isn't he? What do you think, Tōsen?"

Kaname Tōsen: "---- Aizen- san, Komamura is a samurai who embodies both benevolence and loyalty."

Aizen chuckled lightly, "Alright, I won't call him a dog anymore."

"He's a brainless idiot."

Kaname Tōsen: "----Alright then."

Faced with this unexpected turn of events, Kenpachi Zaraki knew something was wrong and he could no longer enjoy his battle with Byakuya Kuchiki, so he regretfully stopped his attack.

However, he didn't feel regretful for long, because he had three more targets to kill, all of whom were captains and could be killed outright.

Byakuya Kuchiki stopped fighting as soon as he saw Rukia being attacked.

While observing the environment and analyzing the enemy's strength, he gathered all the tiny blades. As soon as the battle preparations were complete, he activated the cherry blossom cloud that filled the sky and swept towards Aizen and his group.

Ichigo Kurosaki and Renji Abarai faster; they abandoned Sajin Komamura and pounced on Rukia without any preparation.

As for Death God like Aizen, they're just obstacles between them and Rukia; they can be cut down with a sword!

Ichigo Kurosaki: "Getsuga Tenshō!!"

Renji Abarai: "Higa Zekko!!"

Aizen didn't look at the two people, but instead raised his head and made a listening gesture.

Gin Ichimaru took two steps forward, drew his Zanpakuto, and chuckled, "Young Death God, let me tell you a fact: Bankai is not the end of Death God's power."

"Shoot him! Shinsō!"

Central 46, Tōshirō Hitsugaya, the captain of the Tenth Division, requested an audience in his capacity as captain, but received no response.

Feeling the Spiritual Pressure fluctuations in the distance growing stronger with each wave, the youngest captain finally lost his patience and, without permission, reached out and pressed his hand against the Main Gate of Central 46.

His vice-captain Rangiku Matsumoto, was terrified, but dared not stop his captain on such an important matter.

It wasn't until Tōshirō pushed the Main Gate open a crack that this female Death God with a keen sense of smell detected the scent of death.

She rushed forward and kicked the Main Gate open, revealing dozens of corpses lying paralyzed Central 46.

Rangiku Matsumoto covered her face and exclaimed in horror, "All the nobles of the Central 46 are dead!"

"Captain! What do we do now?"

--

Hitsugaya has only been a captain for a few years, and his experience and qualifications Central City the most limited among the captains. He has no experience to rely on at all.

He was completely stunned by the sudden destruction of the highest authority of the Soul Society.

But a genius is a genius. Tōshirō quickly composed himself, stepped into Central 46, and swiftly examined the corpses on the ground.

He quickly confirmed that the corpses were real; he had met these nobles after taking office and remembered their appearance.

Tōshirō sighed deeply and commanded, "Rangiku, use [Tenteikūra] to address the Captain-Commander, the other captains, and—"

He looked towards the most intense part of the battlefield, sensing Ichigo Kurosaki's Spiritual Pressure, and continued, "... and the Ryoka, to inform all the powerful Death God of the devastating news that the Central 46 have been completely annihilated."

Tōshirō Hitsugaya's growth was too rapid. He was appointed captain shortly after becoming famous and was burdened with heavy team duties, leaving him no time to solidify his foundation.

Therefore, he mastered very few types of Kido, and they were all offensive types; he did not master any support-type Kido.

Rangiku Matsumoto dared not delay and immediately began chanting. "Black and white net! Twenty-two bridges, sixty-six crowns, footprints, distant thunder, peaks, return to earth, night ambush, sea of clouds, azure sequence, filling the cosmos, soaring straight to heaven!"

"Bakudo #77 - Tenteikūra!"

As Matsumoto finished her incantation, her spiritual power exploded, opening up a vast network of spiritual energy that connected to the Mind Stone of all the powerful Death God in the Soul Society.

Following Tōshirō's instructions, Rangiku Matsumoto addressed all the Death God: "Captains, lieutenants, and acting lieutenants of the Goen Thirteenth Division, as well as all you Ryoka, I am Rangiku Matsumoto, the lieutenant of the Tenth Division."

"By order of Captain Tōshirō Hitsugaya of the Tenth Division, I am issuing an emergency telepathic message to everyone."

"I've confirmed with Captain Tōshirō that all members of the Central 46 have been killed!"

"It has now been confirmed that the mastermind behind the murder of the Central 46 members is former Fifth Division Captain Sōsuke Aizen! He is not dead! That corpse was a decoy illusion!"

"Aizen's Zanpakuto's true power is Complete Hypnosis; anyone who sees his Zanpakuto will have their five senses manipulated by him."

"He controlled all members of Central 46, issuing orders in the name of Central 46— "

"Furthermore, it can be confirmed that Third Division Captain Gin Ichimaru and the Captain of the Ninth Division Kaname Tōsen have betrayed the Soul Society!"

"It has now been confirmed that Rukia Kuchiki's mission is a conspiracy, and his target is Rukia. Please protect her!"

"All of the above is testified to by Captain Tōshirō's honor!"

Tōshirō:?

Some of these things weren't said by me.

After listening to Rangiku Matsumoto's words, Aizen smiled and said to Gin Ichimaru, "Heh, your childhood friend is quite strong; she uses [Tenteikūra] very well."

Gin Ichimaru tilted his head in distress. "Captain Aizen, I've already said it, we're childhood friends, but not boyfriend and girlfriend. Saying this will affect my future marriage prospects—"

Aizen snorted lightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and kicked Byakuya Kuchiki, who was lying in a pool of blood in front of him, sending him flying onto Ichigo Kurosaki and Renji Abarai.

Just as Rangiku Matsumoto was speaking, Gin Ichimaru's Shinsō pierced through Ichigo and Renji's chests, easily taking them down.

Aizen also easily defeated Byakuya Kuchiki.

The two of them displayed strength far exceeding that of the other captains, leaving everyone deeply shocked.

Aizen!!

A deafening roar came from behind. Aizen didn't even need to turn around to feel a huge long sword coming down on him.

boom-

The Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō's greatsword slashed down fiercely, and the intense wind pressure stirred up a huge cloud of dust.

When the dust settled, Sajin Komamura was astonished to see that Aizen had actually held up the enormous Zanpakuto with one hand, and the immense Sword Qi of Pluton hadn't even managed to harm the grass beneath his feet.

"Sajin Komamura! It's only been a few days, and you've grown to the point where you're no longer insecure and are willing to show your true self?" Aizen greeted him with a smile, "Congratulations!"

"Aizen Sousuke, how can you still laugh? You betrayed us all, deceived us, and committed an unforgivable crime! Unforgivable!"

Aizen caught Aizen Tensen Myōō's greatsword, but Sajin Komamura's Zanpakuto was not. He deliberately desynchronized with Myōō's movements and swung his sword at the traitor Aizen.

Sajin Komamura's powerful Zanpakuto was blocked by another Zanpakuto, namely Kaname Tōsen, who was standing next to Aizen.

"Tōsen, Komamura is in your hands now." Aizen chuckled. "His survival depends entirely on you."

Kaname Tōsen nodded. "Don't worry, Captain Aizen, Komamura won't be an obstacle for you."

Sajin Komamura's rage soared to the heavens. "Kaname Tōsen! Are you really going to betray the Seireitei, betray my mother?"

Kaname Tōsen said expressionlessly, "I never had Soul Society to begin with, so what's this talk of betrayal? Isn't that ridiculous?"

As for you, my friend, there's nothing I can do about it.

"Who told you to be completely loyal to Captain-Commander Yamamoto, without even having your own thoughts?"

"Captain-Commander Yamamoto, was so servile to the noble Death God of Seireitei that he was less than a dog."

"For Justice, for fairness, for ideals, I have no choice but to sacrifice friendship."
