Aizen looked at [Aizen] who suddenly sat down with his back to him, and several question marks immediately appeared above his head, but he still cooperated by extending his right hand again.

“Li Yuejun, your days of impersonating me and causing trouble are over. Hand over the Mirror Flower Water Moon.”

"If you want it, you'll have to come and get it yourself!"

Li Yue stood up from the plastic chair, carrying the Mirror Flower Water Moon, and turned to face Aizen.

"But you know the rules."

Aizen reluctantly withdrew his right hand and adjusted his glasses.

"I knew you would say that."

In Aizen's view, if he wanted to keep Li Yue in line, he had to satisfy his desire for amusement. In other words, he had to play along with him and finish the charade. Considering that Li Yue called him his godfather and helped him travel to so many strange worlds, Aizen decided to play along.

At least, his presence there meant he could maintain some control over the situation compared to letting Li Yue have a wild time on her own.

With this in mind, Aizen opened a private chat.

[The guy with the super-sprayed hair: Tell me, Li Yuejun, how do you want to play this game?]

Li Yue raised an eyebrow as she looked at the message from Aizen. Well, Aizen's DNA still doesn't have that much of it, but it's still pretty nice. Aizen is a good adoptive father. He's really willing to play along with you. He's much better than that old bastard Zhongli who's courting death!

[Silly Guy: Godfather, you just need to cooperate with me later.]

[The guy with the super-sized hairspray: ......]

As for how to cooperate, Li Yue didn't go into details, but he felt that with Aizen's comprehension ability, he should be able to understand it instantly.

Seeing that the two Aizens on the field had suddenly fallen silent, Abarai and the others who were watching were somewhat bewildered.

"What's going on? Why are they not talking? And why are there two Captain Aizen?"

"Idiot, haven't you realized yet? The Captain Aizen who brought us here is a fake. His name is Li Yue."

Rukia glared at Abarai, who looked utterly foolish, and immediately reprimanded him.

"Huh? Who is Li Yue?"

“I know, he came in with us, and he said he was Aizen’s son.”

Aizen's son?

Rukia stared in shock at Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Is he that unlucky kid?"

Although she was locked in a cell, Rukia could easily find out what was happening outside. She just had to ask the guards, who were usually willing to tell her. After all, Rukia's name was preceded by the name Kuchiki, the number one noble family in Soul Society. Even as a prisoner, she was not an ordinary mortal, so it was perfectly reasonable for her to befriend them.

"Unlucky kid? What does that mean?"

Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. These past few days he had been either fighting or healing, and hadn't had a single good day, so he really didn't know anything about the situation inside the Seireitei.

"Simply put, he was actually an experimental subject that Aizen accidentally created in order to revive his beloved woman. After Aizen raised him for a period of time, he was ruthlessly abandoned. This is what I heard from the people who were guarding me."

Rukia explained to Ichigo Kurosaki in what she thought was a very soft voice.

"Oh? Is it really that unlucky?"

"Abandoned test subjects, is that what you think?"

Aizen smiled as he looked at them, then his body flashed with green light, transforming into his true appearance.

"It really is Li Yue!"

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at Li Yue in surprise as she returned to her original form.

"Yes, we meet again, Kazuki-kun."

Li Yue greeted Ichigo with a smile.

"So, Li Yuejun, although I regret abandoning you, can you now return my illusions to me?"

Aizen, knowing full well, asked for weapons again.

Didn't you want me to cooperate with you? Well then, I'll cooperate with you. Your current persona is that of a pitiful child I abandoned. How does that feel?

"Is that so? Is that what you think? That I am a soul that you accidentally created in order to resurrect the woman you love? Is that what you want to say?"

“…”

Aizen sensed something was wrong, and Li Yue immediately made him realize that his feeling was correct.

“Aizen Sousuke, from the very beginning, you have been under my watchful eye, because you are the most talented soul I have ever seen in the past thousand years. You were born with a powerful spiritual pressure.”

Li Yue picked up the Mirror Flower Water Moon, which was wrapped in bandages around her waist, and held it horizontally in front of her chest.

"Not only that, you are also very intelligent. From a young age, you have been good at observing everything around you, with meticulous attention to detail. You can remember every detail you observe. With such intelligence and your naturally strong spiritual pressure, you are simply a miraculous genius!"

"With your innately powerful spiritual pressure and superb intelligence, becoming a Shinigami is almost your destiny. With your powerful spiritual pressure, you will definitely be exceptionally strong after becoming a Shinigami. If I could use this powerful force, it would be quite wonderful."

Aizen looked at Li Yue speechlessly, but in order to make Li Yue happy, he still cooperated and his expression became serious.

"Li Yuejun, what do you mean by that?"

"Are you trying to say that I've been under your control from the very beginning?"

"That's right, I only mean one thing."

Li Yue used the image of a mirage to refer to Inazuma.

"Aizen Sousuke, from the very beginning, it wasn't you who chose me, but me who chose you!"

Seeing Li Yue's proud expression, Aizen adjusted his glasses.

Okay, okay, let me think. What other lines did you not say? Say them all at once later.

133. Aizen, your days of recklessly using the Hogyoku are over. Hand it over!

"You probably can't understand what I'm saying."

"You don't know what I mean, do you?"

"It's alright, because I will explain it to you one sentence at a time."

Li Yue, with Mirror Flower Water Moon in his left hand and Yama Blade in his right, slowly walked towards Rukia, each holding a sword.

"A thousand years ago, the most powerful force in this world was not the Grim Reaper, but the Quincy led by our supreme Emperor Yhwach!"

Yhwach, who was sleeping in the Unknown Empire, suddenly twitched.

"Lord Yhwach, as the King of Spirit Particles, possesses the power to control all spirit particles. He bestows upon us immense power, enabling us to easily destroy everything. This is how we Quincy were born!"

"However, the inherently evil Shinigami believed themselves to be the masters of this world, and thus launched an attack on us. But all of this was in vain, because before Lord Yhwach, all Shinigami were weak, even Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni!"

"The Grim Reapers, unable to confront Lord Yhwach, chose a shameless sneak attack, and through this attack, they successfully assassinated Lord Yhwach!"

"Yamamoto Genryusai thought he had successfully killed Lord Yhwach, but what they didn't expect was that Lord Yhwach was not dead! We Quincy were not dead either. All they killed were just a bunch of minor characters. Although Lord Yhwach was seriously injured, as the King of Spirits, he led us into the shadows of the Seireitei despite his severe injuries."

Li Yue had a sickly smile on her face.

“That’s right, we’ve lived in the shadows of Seireitei for over a thousand years! We’ve been secretly observing you Shinigami every day. You have no secrets from us!”

"Nani!!!"

The Shinigami present were all shocked. Hidden in the shadows of the Seireitei was a great enemy of the Shinigami from a thousand years ago! They couldn't even imagine such a thing!

Aizen hadn't expected that Li Yue would choose this moment to release information about the Wandenreich. Was he planning to get the Soul Society involved in the siege of the Wandenreich?

"Lord Yhwach has fallen into a deep sleep due to his severe injuries, but we all know that Lord Yhwach will awaken sooner or later. As Lord Yhwach's loyal servant, I have been searching for a way to restore Lord Yhwach's strength."

“Especially the Grim Reaper. I’ve been watching you all. It was the Grim Reaper who put Lord Yhwach into a deep sleep. It would be very interesting if the Grim Reaper were to wake Lord Yhwach up.”

Li Yue looked at Aizen, whose lips twitched, but he still cooperated and gave feedback.

"So, you've taken a liking to me?"

"That's right. To be precise, I've set my sights on two people. One is you, Aizen Sousuke, and the other is Urahara Kisuke. You two are the most talented Shinigami I've ever seen. However, Urahara Kisuke is of noble birth and has always had a princess from the Shihouin family by his side, making him more difficult to control. So I chose you, Aizen Sousuke, who comes from Rukongai."

"You know, when a person is in their most desperate moment, if they see a glimmer of hope, even just a tiny glimmer, they will desperately grab onto it, just like a drowning person seeing a rope in front of them, holding on tightly and refusing to let go. When you were in your most desperate moment, I let her appear in front of you, and she was your glimmer of hope."

"......"

Is there really a sequel? That woman who still doesn't even have a name.

Aizen internally complained as he watched Li Yue continue her performance.

"She became your white moonlight, everything you lived for. I let her occupy your heart, like giving you a divine child when you were drowning, and then let death cut that rope, plunging you back into darkness and despair. And as I predicted, you successfully awakened your power."

"Hey, is this guy really that awful?"

Even Ichigo Kurosaki couldn't help but feel indignant on Aizen's behalf. He had previously thought that Li Yue was the unlucky one, but now it seemed that Aizen was the unlucky one.

Not only did he think so, but Rukia and Abarai next to him felt the same way. Even Gin Ichimaru, who was hiding in the shadows, felt that Aizen was a bit tragic in Li Yue's story. On the surface, he was a big boss who controlled everything, but he had no idea that he was also a link in someone else's manipulation.

"A mirage, a very useful power, isn't it?"

Li Yue raised the Mirror Flower Water Moon in her hand.

"Complete hypnosis. Once you've seen the release, you can permanently control the other person's five senses. Whether it's what they see, hear, or even touch, everything they feel will be under your control. What a perfect Zanpakuto! Combined with your naturally powerful spiritual pressure, it's simply a perfect combination."

“I secretly guided you, making you strive to resurrect that woman, and even used your power to bring me, the test subject you speak of, into being. But this was just me using you to obtain the power of the Grim Reaper.”

"The power of 'illusory flowers and water' is very useful, so I used you to obtain the same power. Aren't you surprised?"

As Li Yue spoke, she raised the Yama Blade in her right hand. A flash of green light appeared on the Yama Blade, and it transformed into Kurosaki Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu.

"It's become just like my Zangetsu!"

"That's right, that's the power of complete hypnosis. What I want you to see is what you will see."

"After obtaining the power of complete hypnosis, the most important next step is to obtain the power to awaken Lord Yhwach!"

"Under my guidance, you began to explore ways to resurrect your beloved. There was the idea of ​​collecting her dissipated consciousness and giving her a new vessel, but the world would not allow you to do so. There was the idea of ​​artificially synthesizing a soul based on her spiritual particles, but what was born was me. In the very end, I guided you to seek the power of God!"

"Human emotions are such a convenient thing to exploit, especially for a pathetic creature like you."

Li Yue suddenly disappeared from his spot and reappeared behind Rukia, his Tensa Zangetsu piercing directly into Rukia's chest.

"Rukia!"

Ichigo and Abarai shouted anxiously. Ichigo even swung his sword and charged at Li Yue, but he missed completely. Li Yue had already disappeared from the spot.

"Rukia, are you alright?!"

"I...I'm fine."
