Death's Hidden Mobile

This required the Quincy's spiritual particles and human souls. Kisuke Urahara created the injection and injected it into the Visoreds, which is why the Visoreds were able to survive.

Even after releasing the soul through suicide, the danger remains great. To master the ethereal form, one must find the ethereal self, fight it, and achieve victory.

At the same time, external forces need to exert restraint to prevent the device from going completely insane and causing even greater destruction after the virtualization fails.

However, the time limit is only sixty minutes. After sixty minutes, the Hollow and the Shinigami's souls will completely merge, turning them into a monster.

Among the Visoreds, Hiyori has the longest duration, approximately 63 minutes.

Kurosaki Ichigo's time is 69 minutes.

At that point, they're basically no different from monsters.

Even after becoming ethereal, one must prevent the ethereal from devouring them and cannot use them for extended periods. However, Jiu Nanbai's first etherealization lasted for fifteen hours.

Therefore, Xia Yan is currently unable to stop the etherealization, let alone prevent the soul from committing suicide.

As he blurred, Xia Yan's injuries slowly healed, and the mask on his face took shape, beginning to spread across his body.

Unable to control myself.

Xia Yan felt his control over his body being taken away. He gritted his teeth, pressed his left hand on the mask, and tore it open, bringing up large pieces of flesh and blood.

The intense pain brought Xia Yan back to his senses for a moment, and he instantly appeared before his Zanpakuto, gripping it tightly.

A shattered Zanpakuto will return to its original form after its Shikai is released.

"Descend, Tenraimaru."

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and lightning struck, which Xia Yan caught in his hand.

“It’s useless. Mobilizing spiritual power on a large scale will only accelerate the Hollowfication.” Aizen shook his head gently.

As Aizen finished speaking, the mask on Xia Yan's face reformed.

"Thunderbolt."

But the next moment, several bolts of lightning struck down, hitting Xia Yan's face. With a crash, the mask shattered, but the moment the lightning disappeared, the mask reformed.

Xia Yan's thoughts were once again swallowed by the void. He was increasingly unable to control himself, and as he used lightning strikes again and again, the mask formed faster and faster.

But the next moment, the energy of thunder gathered on Xia Yan's back, forming two pairs of thunder wings.

That's right, there are two pairs.

With Xia Yan's original physical strength, he could only form one pair of lightning wings. If he formed two pairs of lightning wings to move, his speed would increase greatly, but his body would be torn apart.

However, now, Xia Yan's body is being constantly repaired by the power of the void, and its strength is increasing. The more lightning wings there are, the more void energy is consumed.

Seeing this, Aizen frowned slightly, wondering what he was going to do.

But the moment Lei Yi was born, Xia Yan flashed away and ran into the distance.

"He wants to ask the Seireitei for help? We can't let him reach the Seireitei."

Gin Ichimaru stood next to Aizen and spoke softly.

Aizen shook his head and said, "Don't worry about him. The Seireitei can't save him. If he shows up in the Seireitei, he'll be attacked immediately."

At this point, Aizen frowned slightly and said, "No, he didn't go towards Seireitei."

Xia Yan is flying in a direction that is definitely not Seireitei.

Xia Yan flew northwest from West Rukongai, heading towards North Rukongai.

Gin Ichimaru asked, puzzled, "What's he doing in North Rukongai?"

Aizen smiled and said, "Going to Seireitei would mean being killed, and staying here would mean encountering Soi Fon, so he went to North Rukongai."

Xia Yan quickly arrived at North Rukongai and appeared near Mount Koibu. Just then, several extremely powerful auras appeared from the Seireitei and headed towards North Rukongai.

boom.

A huge explosion rang out, and flames soared into the sky in the distance.

"This is?"

Aizen's eyes widened, revealing surprise for the first time.

Gin Ichimaru said softly, "That's right, Natsuhiko's spiritual pressure disappeared; he chose self-destruction."

When one's soul is about to be swallowed by the void, destroying a part of the soul will cause violent fluctuations in the broken boundary, eventually leading to an explosion.

This is why once one becomes ethereal, it is impossible to detach the power of the ethereal; no matter what method is used, it will accompany one throughout one's life and may even be passed on to the next generation.

Unless you choose death.

Aizen frowned and said, "He... he actually chose to self-destruct? How is that possible?"

Gin Ichimaru said from the side, "Perhaps he doesn't want to fight the others in Seireitei, or stay here and be killed by the person he loves."

Aizen smiled dismissively and said, "Feelings?"

Gin Ichimaru asked with a smile, "Captain Aizen, Natsuhiko is dead, so the reason we had prepared won't work."

Aizen frowned slightly and said, "Yes, go and bring that rogue Shinigami here. I need to prepare the culprit."

"As for the bodies of these combat personnel, they must be disposed of as soon as possible."

Aizen waved his hand, and disc-shaped flames flew out, striking the corpses of the executioners.

The fifty-fourth of the Path of Destruction, the Destroyer of Flames.

The disc-shaped flames incinerate opponents, possessing extremely high temperatures.

The next moment, their bodies burst into flames and turned to ashes, but one body remained intact.

Aizen looked at the distant sky. The black smoke left behind by Xia Yan's self-destruction greatly diminished his joy of success.

Although Xia Yan revealed his true colors, the result was somewhat imperfect.

However, Aizen felt that removing Kisuke Urahara's mole was enough.

Aizen did not dare to underestimate or fall for Kisuke Urahara, because Urahara was the only person in Soul Society whose intelligence surpassed his own.

. . .

Tosen arrives with a rogue Shinigami, whose face is filled with fear as he cries out, "Please, don't kill me!"

"Tosen Kaname, kill him."

Aizen said softly.

Tosen Kaname paused slightly, then asked, "Lord Aizen, he's dead. How are you going to frame the murderer?"

Aizen smiled and said, "He's not qualified to be the murderer. Even if he becomes Hollowfied, he's at most a vice-captain level, not enough to kill Xia Yan. I have other ideas."

"Yes."

Despite the pain, Tosen raised his long sword and plunged it into the heart of the traitorous Grim Reaper, killing him.

Aizen nodded and said, "Very good."

Tosen said, "Lord Aizen, hurry up and prepare the culprit, Soi Fon is about to arrive."

Gin Ichimaru laughed and said, "Kaname Tosen, why the rush? Wouldn't it be better to live a little longer?"

"What do you mean?"

Tosen Kaname was puzzled by Ichimaru Gin's words and then looked at the corpse on the ground.

He killed both a combat officer and a defector.

In addition, when Aizen said that ordinary Shinigami Hollowfication could not kill Natsuhiko, Tosen Kaname instantly understood.

“It is I, Lord Aizen. I am your loyal servant. Please don’t,” Tosen Kaname pleaded, realizing this.

But the next moment, a sword light flashed, and Tosen was directly cut down to the ground.

Aizen shook his head and said, "I don't need loyal servants, I only need useful servants. Now you can do your final duty."

Leaving those words behind, Aizen walked up to him, opened the object that had been imprisoning the Hogyoku, and aimed it at Tosen Kaname.

The next moment, a white mask appeared on Tosen Kaname's face, which then spread to his body. In just a short while, his wounds were healed, and half of his body was transformed into a ethereal form.

Then, Tosen Kaname leaped up and pounced on Aizen.

"Good, fast enough."

Aizen swung his longsword, felling Tosen Kaname to the ground, and said, "Gin, Tosen Kaname is in your hands now. Hold out until Soi Fon arrives. Remember, do not kill him."

Gin Ichimaru laughed and said, "Captain Aizen is joking. I'm not even sure I can defeat Tosen in his Hollowfied form, let alone kill him."

"Do it well."

Aizen simply said something, turned around, and disappeared into the depths.

The ethereal Tosen struggled to his feet, his wounds healing completely.

Gin Ichimaru touched his nose and said, "You really think highly of me."

After saying those words, Gin Ichimaru pressed his hand against the short sword at his waist.

Chapter 87: Two Strikes to Kill

"Shoot him, sharpshooter."

Gin Ichimaru's short sword instantly lengthened, stabbing towards Kaname Tosen in the distance.

At this moment, Kaname Tosen's upper body had become ethereal, and his body was covered with a white substance, greatly increasing his strength and speed.

In an instant, he dodged Gin Ichimaru's slash, and with a single step, he arrived in front of Gin Ichimaru and reached out to grab him.

Gin Ichimaru only had time to raise his short sword before Kaname Tosen's claws were already upon him.

boom.

Gin Ichimaru was sent flying backward, but Kaname Tosen stomped his feet on the ground and shot towards Gin Ichimaru.

"Fast speed, great strength, without Bankai, you really can't beat them."

Gin Ichimaru slowly opened his eyes, but then said with a troubled expression, "But if it's Bankai, I'm afraid I'll kill him."

boom.
