Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

However, the enormous difference in spiritual pressure between the two sides led him to choose to ignore it directly.

"You already knew about the abilities and weaknesses of 'Mirror Flower Water Moon' all along?"

Aizen suddenly smiled and slowly extended a hand towards Aozaki Mayuki.

His voice was filled with relief and joy:

"Matsuki, you are indeed a man who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me and be on the same level."

"I remember you also disliked this world and loathed its current state, didn't you?"

"So, haven't you ever thought about changing the world?"

"Come here, come to my side. With your current strength and status, you are fully qualified to walk alongside me."

"We can join hands to create a better new world! A world that satisfies us!!"

As before, Aizen once again extended an olive branch to Aozaki Mayuki, offering a sincere invitation.

"I don't really care about things like 'changing the world'."

Aozaki Mayuki smiled slightly, gently shook her head, and said...

"However, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"What's the problem?"

Aizen looked at Aozaki Maki with some surprise.

Clearly, no one expected that one of the most prestigious nobles in the Soul Society would so readily agree to his idea.

Aozaki Mayuki picked up the Banshou Senra in his hand, walked towards Aizen, and asked:

Do you know what the difference is between a king and a mount?

Upon hearing this, Tosen Kaname's expression turned extremely ugly.

Aizen, however, did not feel humiliated; instead, he was thinking seriously.

The entire scene instantly fell into an eerie silence.

After a brief silence, Aizen slowly spoke:

"You mean...domination and being dominated?"

His voice was soft, but it carried an indescribable coldness that sent chills down one's spine.

“Yes, there is only one throne in the heavens.” Aizen nodded.

"Since there is only one king, the other is destined to become a mount and be dominated by him."

His lips curled up slightly, revealing an excited smile.

Let's take a look.

"Who will be able to end this unbearable void on the throne of heaven?"

"Who will truly stand at the top, Aozaki Mayuki!"

When he said the last sentence, Aizen's tone suddenly became impassioned, and his aura surged.

His eyes flashed with intense light, and his entire being seemed to transform into a sharp sword, radiating unparalleled pressure.

Aizen remained silent, but the aura emanating from him still sent shivers down people's spines.

As Aizen finished speaking, a figure descended from the sky and landed behind Tosen Kaname.

The figure was small and looked somewhat fragile, yet it gave off a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.

The Ryujin Jakka below emitted raging flames, as if it wanted to burn the entire world to ashes.

However, when this figure appeared, the flames were instantly extinguished, as if suppressed by an invisible force.

Aozaki Mayuki glanced at Ryujin Jakka.

She gripped her Zanpakuto tightly, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

The newcomer was a male Arrancar who was only about 1.6 meters tall.

His hair was crimson, as dazzling as a burning flame.

His mask was a fragmented demon horn shape, covering only half of his head.

His unique style makes him stand out from the crowd.

However, compared to the other Arrancar, this Arrancar's eyes appeared very dull, as if it had lost its soul.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, making one wonder if he possessed any normal thinking ability.

"The Fire-Eating Demon Sieg Genola".

Aizen's voice drifted over slowly, carrying a hint of barely perceptible smugness.

"Hearing this name, you've probably already guessed it, right?"

Aizen continued, his eyes gleaming with confidence.

“That’s right. In order to deal with the powerful fire-type Kido contained in your Zanpakuto, I created Sieg.”

"His ability is very special and unique—to suppress the power of 'flame' in your Zanpakuto."

Aizen's words were full of confidence, as if he was extremely satisfied with his masterpiece.

He believed that with Sieg's presence, Aozaki Mayuki's strength would be greatly limited.

With the precious jade pendant on his chest, his chances of winning will greatly increase.

Aizen couldn't possibly ignore the power possessed by the Myriad Manifestations.

The most terrifying of them all is undoubtedly the Flame Demonic Path ability, which possesses unparalleled destructive power.

So he used the power of the Hogyoku to modify an Arrancar.

Sieg Genola was created to counter Aozaki Mayuki's "Flame" ability in the Pangu Forest.

However, as the price for sealing the "flame," Sieg will lose language, consciousness, knowledge, and sanity.

Nevertheless, he still retained a formidable fighting ability sufficient to briefly engage Barragan in combat.

"The Fire-Devouring Demon?"

Aozaki Mayuki couldn't help but tilt her head.

Isn't this just using the same tactics that were used on the old man on himself?

Do you want this guy to have a close-quarters fight with you?

Does he have the qualifications?

"Aizen, aren't you underestimating me?"

Aozaki Mayuki rushed forward at an astonishing speed.

Like a shooting star streaking across the sky, leaving afterimages in the air, it seemed poised to tear the entire space apart.

"You're not naive enough to think I still need to rely on that kind of power now, are you?"

With a soft shout, Aozaki Mayuki's Zanpakuto gleamed with a cold light.

Like a cold moon hanging high in the night sky, it exudes endless chill and killing intent.

In an instant, a slash carrying a chilling light descended!

The so-called Fire-Devouring Demon didn't even last half a second before being instantly cleaved in two by this incredibly sharp blade of light!

The bloody scene was shocking, and the air was thick with the stench of death.

How could that be?

Aizen frowned slightly, secretly surprised.

He had to admit that he had underestimated Aozaki Mayuki's strength.

He certainly wouldn't want the Fire Devouring Demon to face Aozaki Mazuki alone.

Aizen's original plan was for the Fire Devouring Demon to seal the fire-type Kido of the Myriad Manifestations, while he himself would fight against Aozaki Mayuki.

But he was too caught off guard by the attack!

Chapter 255 The Final Evolution

Just as Aizen was in shock, Aozaki Mayuki's figure vanished from the spot like a ghost.

Immediately afterwards, Aozaki Mayuki missed his body as if she had teleported.

"A grand funeral in heavenly fire!"

Aozaki Mayuki murmured softly, and the Zanpakuto in his hand once again shone with dazzling light.

"Sorry, I've already finished chopping."

As the words fell, the Zanpakuto slowly returned to its sheath.

The entire movement was fluid and seamless, without the slightest hesitation.

The next moment, a charred wound suddenly appeared on Aizen's body.

It was an extremely fine scratch, almost imperceptible unless you looked closely.

It was this seemingly insignificant slash that instilled in Aizen an unprecedented sense of fear.

Even with his dynamic vision in his second fusion state, he couldn't catch the trajectory of that slash!

"Shinjuku...you..."

Aizen's mask suddenly shattered, revealing a horrified face.

He stared incredulously at the flickering flames on his body, his face filled with disbelief.

There is pain...

He got slashed!
