Starting with Naruto, I'll become stronger through my own efforts.

Chapter 444 The barrier collapses, the real world is in danger.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni is widely regarded as the strongest Shinigami in a thousand years. Just how strong is he?

In terms of spiritual pressure, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, even with only his Shikai, unleashed a spiritual pressure stronger than Ulquiorra's.

In terms of attack power, the Captain-Commander's Ryujin Jakka is the number one, and that's no exaggeration. Even if it hit Aizen, he would probably die.

In terms of speed, swordsmanship, and demonic arts, Captain-Commander Yamamoto's swordsmanship and demonic walking techniques have no weaknesses; each one is at the pinnacle of perfection!

Even when comparing defensive capabilities, the Captain-Commander's body covered in scars is the best proof.

In just two or three rounds, Ulquiorra's steel armor was cleaved through by Ryujin Jakka, and one of his arms was severed. He had no choice but to flap his wings and flee to a distant place to catch his breath.

It regenerated at supersonic speed, growing new arms. With both hands held out in front of its chest, it gathered spiritual pressure to create two ghastly green lightning spears.

This was a terrifying power capable of destroying Hueco Mundo with a single strike; the terrifying spiritual pressure shook the earth, stirring up countless storms and waves.

The Grim Reapers present were all stunned when they saw the two Thunder Spears in Ulquiorra's hands.

The vice-captains were indeed frightened, but the captains were not worried. Who couldn't launch such an attack?

However, these two Thunder Spears are indeed powerful. If they are not caught, the Karakura Town model, which has been built with great effort, will surely be destroyed by the thunder's attack.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto scoffed dismissively, "A boring little trick."

"Swastika: Residual Fire Taishou!"

The two men's momentum reached its peak, and it looked like they were about to have a fierce clash.

Suddenly, a beast-like roar echoed across the battlefield: "Roar—"

'

The roar wasn't deafening, but its deep sound waves contained boundless brutality, slaughter, and destruction.

All sorts of negative emotions poured into people's ears with the roar, making them feel cold all over. Even the battle-hardened captains of Death felt their scalps tingle.

Even Captain-Commander Yamamoto and Ulquiorra shifted their attention.

Like everyone else, Gin Ichimaru and Aizen couldn't help but turn their heads to look.

"This ominous spiritual pressure is indeed an illusion."

"This spiritual pressure is stronger than Vasto Lorde's. Could it be that a Hollow can advance to a higher level without needing to become an Arrancar?"

Gin Ichimaru, acting as a mouthpiece for everyone present, posed the question to Aizen, the most knowledgeable among them: "What is that thing?"

Aizen didn't even glance at Gin Ichimaru; he had already fallen for someone else. He muttered to himself, "Finally awakened! I've finally waited for this!"

"Ichigo Kurosaki, possessing the powers of a Shinigami, a Quincy, and a Hollow, you have finally embarked on the path of fusion and evolution!"

"Haha, a new path, a path that can serve as a reference for my progress, just how far can it take me?"

"By fusing these three powers, can we break through the limits and recreate Perfection?"

Aizen's burning gaze was fixed on Ichigo Kurosaki, who was letting out a strange roar.

Gin Ichimaru stared dumbfounded at the monster before him: "Is that Ichigo Kurosaki?"

Kurosaki Ichigo has completely Hollowfied and become Minotaur Ichigo.

Pale bone armor covered his entire body, with dangerous red patterns running across his limbs. His black spiritual pressure, belonging to the void, exploded and expanded, stirring up a strong wind that disrupted the clouds in the sky.

The white clouds were tinged with dark spiritual pressure, turning into gloomy dark clouds that became a black curtain hanging over the earth.

Kurosaki Ichigo's face was completely covered by a bone mask, with a pair of sharp horns on his head and two crimson orbs flashing in his eye sockets.

Because the released spiritual pressure has a high temperature, the air density is uneven, and the light is constantly distorted as the spiritual pressure is ejected.

The moment the negative roar disappeared, Minotaur Ichigo unleashed tremendous force from his feet and vanished instantly into the towering dust.

The ground where he had stood was trampled and collapsed layer by layer, and billowing dust spread outwards like waves.

At this moment, the one controlling Ichigo's body is Hollow White, this extremely petty second personality, who directly targets Ulquiorra, who injured the main body.

The two monsters collided in mid-air; the minotaur kicked Ulquiorra, but was himself pierced by two lightning spears.

To everyone's surprise, the lightning spear that could shatter the mirror image of Karakura Town failed to even penetrate the white bone armor on Ichigo's body.

After the smoke and dust from the violent explosion dissipated, the shallow pits left on the minotaur's shoulders had all healed, leaving only a ring of marks.

Minotaur was clearly at a disadvantage, and he roared as he frantically attacked the quiet and calm Ulquiorra. The two monsters, whose behavior was completely extreme, clashed fiercely in the air.

Because the action was too violent, although the Minotaur was the one who initiated the attack, it was Ulquiorra, who was on the defensive counterattack, who took the initiative.

After suffering several setbacks, Ichigo, the Minotaur, realized that Ulquiorra's attacks all landed in one spot, piercing through his thick, self-healing bone armor.

Niu Tou Xu was injured, and the blood flowing out completely ignited his rage.

He lowered his head, and a bright red energy ball condensed between his two sharp horns. The next second, a scorching Cero was fired, and the red light dyed the world blood-red.

The immense energy seemed capable of distorting space, and it itself expanded to a diameter of over ten meters, enveloping Ulquiorra.

boom-!

The red Cero struck Ulquiorra high in the sky, exploding into a massive red fireball and dispersing the black clouds that had been painted over the sky.

The entire world was stained crimson by the red fireball, and the shockwave from the explosion spread outwards, carrying devastating shockwaves that continuously bombarded the surface of Karakura Town.

You must understand, this is not the real surface of the earth, but a fake demonic sealing barrier, an illusion.

The power of the red Cero exceeded everyone's expectations, blasting out the outline of the barrier in an instant.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto frowned and said, "If this continues, the barrier will soon be destroyed, and then the real Karakura Town will be transported back to the present world—"

Aizen suddenly laughed: "The combined power of the three has such explosive force that it almost broke the barrier in one go."

"This is interesting. Let me put in some extra effort to remove obstacles for Wang Jian's production."

He suddenly began to chant: "The bones of beasts scattered like stars, spires, red crystals, steel wheels, movement is the wind, stillness is emptiness, the sound of spears clashing fills the void city."

"Hado #63 - Thunder Roar Cannon!!"

"100-hit combo!!"

Yamamoto Shigekuni suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no!"

All the Shinigami skilled in Kido finally understood why Aizen, who was capable of using the 90th Kido without chanting, was chanting it completely this time.

It turns out he had mastered the art of Kido to an extreme degree, able to compress hundreds of Kido attacks into a single strike.

This is an improvement of two orders of magnitude, an absolute qualitative change!

Golden lightning roared, and in a mere second, a hundred bolts struck the spot hit by the red Cero, enough to form a giant inverted cone.

Just as Aizen said, the lightning became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the sealing barrier was completely breached.

The town of Karakura, constructed from spirit particles, collapsed into abundant spirit particles, which scattered and fell into shimmering tides of spiritual energy.

Then, all the Shinigami and Hollows twisted space and appeared above the real Karakura Town, and everyone heard the bustling and lively noise.

Aizen smiled and said, "The real world is still the best; it's full of souls everywhere."

"Grim Reapers, are you even able to fight freely here against us?"

"Do you feel any remorse for killing mortals in the aftermath of your attack?"

"Please rest assured, I—absolutely will not, because my goal is to kill all the humans here, and then, using the environment of the Spirit Particle Severe Ground, forge their souls into King Keys!"

"If you help me kill someone, I will only thank you."

Aizen's words caused most of the Shinigami to frown, and even Soi Fon, from the notoriously ruthless assassination squad, found it difficult to make a move.

However, Kenpachi Zaraki, Retsu Unohana, Shigekuni Yamamoto, and Natsusa remained unaffected, surrounding Aizen and Gin Ichimaru with normal expressions.

"Oh dear, this is terrible, this is terrible! How did the barrier break?"

Kisuke Urahara appeared before everyone wearing his classic green hat, and said with a wry smile, "As expected, without the Great Demon Master, the Kido Clan has become a bunch of weaklings."

"No, that's not it." The former Great Demon Master, Wo Ling Tiezhai, looked around and explained, "This barrier is not weak; it's just that it was attacked too fiercely."

"Manager, under such a terrifying attack, no barrier will be of any use. It will definitely be breached from the point of attack and completely destroyed."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto looked at the two of them and said, "Hmph, two more troublemakers."

Kisuke Urahara touched his hat and chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, your opinion of me has improved."

Wo Ling Tiezhai said with shame, "I'm sorry to have worried you."

Then another calm voice joined in: "What happened? Suddenly it looks like the end of the world?"

"Ah! You're Ichigo! How did you become like this?! Change back!! Give me back my son!"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Amidst a series of loud slaps, Hollow White, feeling guilty, logged off, returning his body to his original personality, Kurosaki Ichigo, and the Hollow mode naturally dissipated.

Kurosaki Isshin waited until Kurosaki Ichigo had fully recovered before stopping and leaving his son behind, while he faced Aizen directly.

"Inize!"

Aizen paused for a moment, seemingly taking a moment to think, before smiling and saying, "Captain Isshin, it's been a long time."

Kurosaki Ichigo sneered, "Yeah, long time no see. Thanks to you, I've been suffering a lot."

"But it is also because of you that I have been able to have twenty years of happy life."

"But I can never forgive Masaki's death."

Aizen smiled slightly: "Just a mere Quincy, let him hate me if he wants."

He spread his arms, his whole body seemingly glowing, and said, "As a god about to ascend the throne, a true god, it is only natural to bear some hatred and human lives."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto scoffed, "You really think you're a god?"

"The only true God is—"

Xia Zuo interrupted the captain, sneering, "Are you saying that the only true god is the Spirit King?"

"Stop talking nonsense. A stupid idiot who was brutally dismembered and torn to pieces, used as a human sacrifice to stop the world from functioning, does he deserve to be called a god?"

"How can there be gods in this world who can be manipulated at will?"

Kisuke Urahara put away his fan and smile, drew his Zanpakuto Benihime, and said, "Aizen, you've crossed the line."

With his left hand suppressing his son, Kurosaki Isshin drew his Zanpakuto, Light, with his right: "I don't care if you want to become a god, but I'm going to kill you."

Aizen smiled: "This is wonderful. So many powerful figures have come to celebrate my ascension to godhood."

"Therefore, I must reveal the true key to you all, and I hope you will offer your corrections."

At this point, Aizen's spiritual pressure fluctuated rapidly, and streams of white substance suddenly emanated from the Hōgyoku on his chest, covering his entire body.

Only when Aizen's body was completely covered did his violently fluctuating spiritual pressure suddenly calm down.

No, it wasn't calm; rather, the spiritual pressure suddenly vanished completely, as if the previous changes were all an illusion.

To be precise, it was because Aizen's spiritual pressure was tightly wrapped by the white entity on his body, and it did not leak out at all, which caused this strange feeling.

After Aizen was encased in a white carapace, he looked like a pupa during insect evolution.

At this moment, everyone noticed that there was a bead that shimmered with blue light embedded in the center of the pupa's chest. That was the Hogyoku!

Kenpachi Zaraki asked, "I don't quite understand, but I think that bead is crucial. Would it solve the problem if we just cut it out?"

Kisuke Urahara gave a thumbs up: "Captain Zaraki is right, but that thing can't be—"

Kenpachi Zaraki had no time to listen to his rambling. He used Shunpo to appear in front of Aizen's pupa, and his Zanpakuto transformed into a streak of light, slashing fiercely at the Hōgyoku.

boom!

Kenpachi Zaraki's golden spiritual pressure was shattered by the blue spiritual pressure of the Hōgyoku, and he and his Zanpakutō were blown away by the resulting violent explosion.

Unohana Retsu covered her face and sighed, seemingly feeling that Kenpachi Zaraki had embarrassed her, but the next second, her Zanpakuto was stuck next to the Hogyoku, seemingly trying to pry the Hogyoku off the pupa.

Then, Sister Hua's knife failed to penetrate, and her plan to pry open the jade came to nothing.

"Get out of the way, all of you. Such a stupid target that can't move is the best prey for my old Blade of Broken Flame."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto pushed through the crowd and coldly snorted, "The Blazing Blade - East - Rising Sun Blade!!"

The red-black Zanpakuto pierced the motionless pupa, and the moment the tip of the blade touched the white carapace, it burned it black and turned it into ashes.

At this critical moment, an arm emerged from the pupa and deliberately pierced the flaming katana, tilting the blade before it was completely burned to ashes.

Aizen emerged from the pupa and discarded the outer shell he had just worn.

He became more tidy, and his clothes had the characteristics of seamless heavenly garments, making him look more sacred.

Except for his left hand, which had just been pierced and burned off.
