Death: So I am a Quincy

Chapter 173 A battle of wits and courage with the air

"Gin hasn't used his Bankai yet... It seems he can deal with Amamiya Tsutomu with ease." Aizen thought his judgment was correct. Against Amamiya Tsutomu's strange Zanpakuto, Ichimaru Gin's fast and deadly ability would be more useful.

"Well, I should hurry up too." Aizen looked at everyone again.

The first Espada, Koyatay Stark, and the 30th Espada, Tia Harribel, have temporarily stood on the side of the God of Death. If Aizen wants to use them as nourishment for the Hogyoku, he must defeat the enemies in front of him.

But Aizen no longer wanted to wait, not to mention that the most powerful Yamamoto Genryusai was still standing by and had not taken any action. After completing the Hogyoku, Aizen still wanted to fuse the Hogyoku into his body.

The Shinigami's men rushed towards Aizen and launched an attack.

But the strange thing was that Aizen didn't make any move, but just watched them rush over.

Hitsugaya Toshiro, who was in the front, rushed straight towards Aizen, and then... passed Aizen!

Then more and more Shinigami passed Aizen. A smile appeared on the corner of Aizen's mouth, and he walked slowly towards Tia Harribel and Koyata Stark.

"What?!" Tia Harribel saw that the others attacked Aizen as if they were possessed, but they were actually attacking the air.

"It's a mirage, Harribel, be careful." Koyata Stark said in a deep voice. He thought he would have to temporarily cooperate with the God of Death to deal with Aizen, but he didn't expect Aizen to hypnotize so many people at once, and he crossed many obstacles as if no one was around and came in front of the two of them.

"How is this possible! Mirror Flower and Water Moon clearly haven't activated yet, how could he?!"

"Not activated?" Aizen repeated this sentence with a smile, then regained his composure and asked: "When did you have the illusion that I didn't activate the mirror flower and water moon?"

"Damn it..." Harribel was filled with shock and anger. The oppressive feeling coming from Aizen made her feel more and more uneasy.

"It seems that the Grim Reaper is of no use. Harribel, if you don't want to die, just attack with all your strength." Stark raised his two guns and aimed at Aizen.

After hearing this, Harribel raised the giant shark sword in her hand and rushed towards Aizen.

"Really? With your level, I won't allow you to use your sword against me a second time." Aizen easily blocked the giant sword with Kagami Suigetsu in one hand, then came behind Harribel and slashed at her with the sword.

Although Stark noticed Aizen's movements and immediately fired a virtual flash at Aizen, Aizen had already slashed Harribel with a knife and left.

A large amount of blood spurted out of Harribel's body and she began to fall from the air.

"Harribel!" Stark felt Harribel's spiritual pressure begin to weaken, but fortunately it did not disappear completely.

"You thought I didn't notice what you were doing, Stark?"

Then Stark heard Aizen's voice from behind and turned around immediately, but Aizen's sword had already fallen. Stark had no choice but to use his double guns to block the sword.

When Aizen's sword touched Stark's double guns, a crack appeared on the guns, and Lilinette let out a wail.

This made Stark's eyes widen, and he quickly let go of his double guns, letting Aizen's knife cut him. Then Stark quickly stepped back, but there was a long wound on his chest, but Stark no longer cared about his wounds and quickly looked at the double guns in his hands.

"Lilinette, are you okay?!" Stark asked anxiously when he saw the cracks on the double guns.

"We can still hold on, Stark." Lilinette, the soul in the double guns, spoke weakly.

"Wow, in order to prevent that kid from getting hurt, you took the initiative to let go of your defense?" Aizen knew that Lilinette was among the double guns, and couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected, loneliness is your biggest weakness, Stark." Aizen said meaningfully, "But the strong are destined to be lonely, and only those who can endure loneliness are strong."

"I don't want to be a strong man. For me, having companions is the most important thing." Stark said panting.

"Sure enough, even though you are an independent Arrancar, you still have the innate flaws of a Hollow. I have too high expectations of you." Aizen shook his head and said helplessly.

Aizen said before disappearing from the spot again and slashing at Stark.

On the other side, Amemiya Tsutomu and Ichimaru Gin were still fighting, but the place where they were fighting had gradually moved from the edge of this fake Karakura Town to the battlefield where Aizen and the others were.

"Aizen is really scary. Captain Ichimaru actually used Kyoka Suigetsu to make Captain Hitsugaya and his men compete with the air in wits and courage."

Amemiya Tsutomu used his Bankai to shoot an arrow at Ichimaru Gin in the sky. After Ichimaru Gin dodged the arrow, he fired his magic spear at Amemiya Tsutomu again.

"What are you talking about, Amemiya-kun? Isn't Captain Aizen fighting with Captain Hitsugaya and the others? However, Captain Aizen hasn't used his full strength yet." Gin Ichimaru actually saw that Aizen was attacking Stark.

He also saw Hitsugaya Toushirou and the others shouting past Aizen himself. Only Kageka Suigetsu could cause such a strange phenomenon, so Ichimaru Gin had already believed Amamiya Tou's words in his heart.

Just now, Amemiya used his Bankai to shoot Gin Ichimaru. The arrow looked powerful, but it did not cause any harm to Gin Ichimaru. Instead, it allowed Gin Ichimaru to see every move of Aizen clearly.

Both of them tacitly did not talk about this matter, but fought seriously.

Both Ichimaru Gin and Amemiya Toshi had many wounds on their bodies, but those were just scratches caused by arrows and divine spears attacking each other. Although their clothes were stained with blood, the two of them were not actually seriously hurt.

……

"Use all your strength, Lilinette." Stark said to the gun in his hand.

"Yeah, I understand." Lilinette's tone began to become serious. Facing an enemy like Aizen, if she didn't use her full strength, she would probably really die.

The pistol in Stark's hand disappeared, and then more and more wolves appeared around. The wolves showed ferocious expressions and looked at Aizen.

Aizen, on the other hand, looked calm and composed.

"Stark, you deserve to be the first of the Ten Espadas that I chose. The spiritual pressure of each wolf here cannot be underestimated. It would be great if you could use it earlier to deal with the Shinigami of Soul Society." Aizen said regretfully.

"I think it's a good thing I didn't use it in advance, otherwise how can I deal with you!" Stark put his hands in his pockets and shouted, "Go!"

The wolves roared and rushed towards Aizen...

Chapter 174: Collapse of Jade, completed?

The wolves summoned by Stark rushed towards Aizen frantically, but Aizen just looked at the oncoming wolves. When the wolves were about to reach Aizen, Aizen slowly uttered a few words.

"The 81st of the Binding Path, Severing the Void."

A white wall appeared in front of Aizen. After Stark's wolf pack hit the wall, they exploded directly and could not move forward at all.

"Stark, have you forgotten that I once took a part of the Espada's body for research? I know very well your abilities." The strong wind caused by the explosion blew up Aizen's hair. Facing this horrible explosion, Aizen did not blink and told Stark calmly.

"Tsk..." Stark moved his mind and let the wolves bypass Dankong and continue to move towards Aizen, but Aizen had disappeared long ago.

"In terms of power, it's indeed very good. But unfortunately, the speed is still too slow." Aizen raised the knife in his hand and slashed towards Stark head-on.

This time Stark finally saw Aizen's movements clearly, and immediately used the Hibiki technique to retreat, but he was still a little slow and was cut by Aizen's sword.

Aizen swung his sword down, with a trace of blood still dripping from the sky on the tip of the sword.

Blood began to flow from Stark's gun-holding arm, staining his gray clothes red.

"Hey, Stark, you failed to dodge again?!" Lilinette, who had transformed into a wolf, shouted worriedly.

"There's nothing we can do. He's as strong as a monster." Stark sighed.

"Stark, do you know why I chose you to be the first of the Ten Espadas?" Aizen asked calmly without attacking immediately.

"Who knows? In my opinion, I'm not as good as the old man." Stark was naturally referring to Bylergan Ruisenbang.

"Stark, among the ten espadrilles, you represent the cause of death of loneliness. This is the most important reason why I chose you as the first of the ten espadrilles. The fact that you are an independent Arrancar is not enough for me to value you so much."

When Aizen chooses a person, he never looks at his specific strength, but rather at his potential. He chose Stark as the first of the Ten Espadas because Aizen saw his own shadow in Stark.

Aizen always thought that he was lonely because his talent far exceeded that of most people and no one could stand in the same position as Aizen.

In Aizen's opinion, Stark has potential. If he can endure loneliness and overcome loneliness, Stark will be the Hollow who goes the furthest among the Arrancar.

"But you disappoint me... You can't overcome loneliness, and you even try madly to get rid of it." Aizen sighed.

"I'm sorry, 'Master' Aizen, it seems I can only become a mortal." Stark replied nonchalantly. He had no interest in becoming stronger. As long as he had companions by his side, he would be content.

Stark took his hands out of his pockets and turned the wolves into two blue wolf swords, holding them in his hands.

"What a vulgar thing... What a pity." Aizen said this from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time it also strengthened his inner thoughts that the strong are destined to be lonely.

……

On the other side, the seriously injured Harribel regained consciousness and was about to see where Aizen was, but she found that Koyatae Stark, who was in the sky in the distance, was splashing with blood and began to fall down.

"How is this possible?! Even the first of the ten Espadas..." Harribel had never underestimated Aizen, but it seemed that she still underestimated Aizen's true strength.

Because there wasn't even a trace of blood on Aizen's body.

"No, I have to stop him..."

Harribel staggered towards the two of them. As one of the Espada, a symbol of sacrifice, she did not hesitate at all even when facing an invincible enemy like Aizen.

And Koyate Stark had fallen from the air to the ground, lying on the ground and spitting out blood weakly.

"Damn it... I didn't expect it would take just a few slashes..." Koyata Stark said helplessly. He finally had a clear understanding of Aizen's strength.

Aizen came in front of him, took out the Hogyoku in his arms, and was about to absorb Koyata Stark, but a high-pressure water gun shot out from a distance, forcing Aizen to take a few steps back.

"Harribel, you can actually regain consciousness, that's amazing." Aizen sighed, but then his tone became extremely cold, "Then I'll absorb you first."

Aizen disappeared, came to the side of Tia Harribel, and said softly: "Hado No. 90, Black Coffin."

A black unknown substance suddenly rose up from the feet of the Ninety Black Coffins of the Broken Path, and in just a short while, it completely enveloped Harribel.

Then the black coffin broke, and Harribel almost turned into a bloody man. She could no longer stand up and fell forward.

Aizen grabbed her neck before she fell.

"I finally managed to unleash the full power of the Black Coffin's Chant of Destruction, but I didn't expect that I would have to reduce its power just for you. I would be very distressed if you died right away." Aizen grabbed Harribel's neck, lifted her up high, and placed the Hogyoku in front of Harribel.

Harribel barely managed to stay conscious, but when she saw the Broken Jade getting closer and closer, she gave up resisting.

"Hellibel, I'll leave Lilinette to you."

Harribel vaguely heard Stark's voice and finally fell into a coma.

Stark released the Return of the Blade, causing the remaining wolf to transform into Lilinette's appearance, and used the last of his strength to knock Harribel away.

"Alright, Master Aizen, even though you wanted to use us, you at least helped me find a true companion. Let me return one last favor to you."

Aizen had an expressionless face as he aimed the Hogyoku at Koyatae Stark. Then Koyatae Stark's body began to slowly disperse, turning into points of light and pouring into the Hogyoku.

"I'm sorry, Lilinette, I have to break the contract. I may not be able to walk together forever, but at least I want you to not be alone like me." Koyate Stark looked at Lilinette who had fainted in the distance and closed his eyes.

Then Koyate Stark disappeared completely, and the Broken Jade was emitting a dazzling blue-black light at this moment.

Aizen carefully felt the situation of the Hogyoku, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he could no longer suppress the joy in his heart.

So he lifted the Mirror Flower and Water Moon, and everyone recovered.

"Where is Aizen?" "No! This is just a mirage, we didn't attack Aizen at all, this is all fake!"

"There!" Everyone finally found where Aizen was and turned to look.

Aizen slowly rose into the sky, ignoring Harribel below, and said to everyone with a smile: "Thank you for fighting against a non-existent opponent for so long."

Chapter 175: Kyoraku Shunsui's Plan

Originally, Aizen wanted to absorb Koyata Stark in the end, but because Koyata Stark took the initiative to come to him, Aizen used the Hogyoku to directly absorb Koyata Stark.

But what Aizen didn't expect was that after absorbing Koyate Stark, the Hogyoku became saturated. Saturation means that this Hogyoku has reached the state of a semi-finished product. As long as he spends a little time to let the Hogyoku calm down, he can fuse this Hogyoku and make his Hogyoku a finished product.

"Aizen..." Everyone's faces were not very good, because they had been fighting wits and courage with the air for so long, but Aizen completely ignored them. He was even too lazy to attack them from behind, but went to do other things. This was complete contempt.

"What is the meaning of doing this..." Kyoraku Shunsui was not angered by Aizen's behavior, but began to think about the hidden meaning of Aizen's behavior. Kyoraku Shunsui recalled what Amemiya said, and had a bad premonition in his heart, so he began to observe his surroundings carefully.

After looking around, he found that Koyate Stark had completely disappeared, and he could not even sense a trace of spiritual pressure. Only the 30th Blade Tia Harribel was left lying on the ground in the distance.

"Be careful, the First Ten Espadas may have been absorbed into the Hogyoku by Aizen!" Kyoraku Shunsui reminded everyone in a deep voice.

After hearing what Kyoraku Shunsui said, everyone realized that Koyate Stark had disappeared.

"You hypnotized us. Are you going to deal with the two Arrancar first?"

"How is this possible? When did the Mirror Flower and Water Moon start?!"

"Could it be that the Collapse Jade has been completed?!"

Aizen couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this.

"Sorry, to express my gratitude for your funny performance, I will deal with you quickly." The corners of Aizen's mouth raised and revealed his contempt for them. Now that the Hogyoku was about to be completed, Aizen just wanted to clean up the dust as soon as possible.

"Aizen!" Hitsugaya Toshiro took the lead and rushed towards Aizen.

"Hitsugaya... Are you still so impulsive? Are you so angry just because I played a little trick on you? Or are you here to avenge my 'vice-captain'?" Aizen chuckled and used his sword to block Hitsugaya Toshiro's sword, and specifically mentioned the term vice-captain.

Hitsugaya Toshiro suddenly remembered the miserable situation of Hinamori Momo, who was seriously injured and had to keep defending Aizen after waking up. All of this made Hitsugaya Toshiro extremely angry.

"Bankai!" Hitsugaya Toushirou held Aizen tightly with his sword and used his own Bankai, "Dai Gurren Hyorinmaru!"

With the help of Hyorinmaru, Hitsugaya Toshiro directly froze the Kyoka Suigetsu in Aizen's hand, not wanting to give Aizen the chance to perform Shikai again.

Others also launched attacks from different directions, but Aizen just stared at Hitsugaya Toshiro without making any moves.

But after the attacks from all directions came down, they hit the walls made of glass.

"Is it Duankong?!"
