Shinigami: Start With The Invisible Empire

As the light disappeared, Yhwach led his bodyguards straight into the sky and disappeared into the passage created by the fall of Kurosaki Ichigo.

In [Silver Frame City], because Yhwach recovered his power in advance and activated [Holiness], the [Star Cross Knights] suffered heavy losses.

Half of the knights died directly because of Yhwach's sanctification, and even the Starcross Knights who did not die lost the power of the Holy Body.

Coupled with Kurosaki Ichigo and other captains who returned from [Spirit King Palace], the balance of the war has begun to tilt.

But--

In fact, the most fatal thing is that Yhwach boarded the [Soul King Palace], but [Gotei 13] was unable to do anything.

Unohana Retsu is still protecting the captain at the original position of the fourth division, and Kyoraku Shunsui has not summoned him.

After all, Aizen now said that Qianye was not dead, but this situation was not something ordinary Kaidō could recover from.

At this moment, Aizen was still at the place where Qianye died. He waited for a moment and then exhaled.

"Rejecting Hōgyoku, self-evolution process is still happening

"What a pity, I don't want to wait any longer!"

"At least, I want to climb up to the Soul Palace before it is destroyed by Yhwach!"

Originally, it was Aizen's purpose to ascend to the Soul King's Palace and change the world.

At the moment 410, Yhwach has taken the first step. If he doesn't take action, as far as he knows, the world will return to its original chaos.

With that said, Aizen turned around and left.

However, suddenly, a figure appeared under Aizen's shadow.

Kyoraku Shunsui had freed his own Zanpakutō without knowing when.

Traveling through shadows is the ability of his [Shadow Ghost].

Then--

A Zanpakutō was quietly placed on Aizen's neck.

"Where are you going? Aizen?"

Hearing this, Aizen looked calm and just glanced at Kyoraku Shunsui who appeared in his shadow.

"Where to go?"

"Of course, we're going to the Soul King's Palace."

Kyoraku Shunsui's eyes narrowed slightly.

"The passage to the Soul King Palace that appeared just now due to the fall of Kurosaki Ichigo has been closed. Now...how are you going to get up?"

Hearing this, Aizen smiled.

"Asking even though you know it!"

"Yhwach has his own ways!"

"Of course I have my own style!"

"Didn't you [Soul Society] know my plan from the beginning..."

"And, aren't you the ones who put the real [Karakura Town] here?"

Obviously, Aizen at this moment wants to directly use the heavy spiritual land of [(cdca) Karakura Town] to create the [King Key]!

[King Key] is the key to open the Spirit King's Palace.

And the key itself is Team Zero.

but--

In addition to the Zero Division, there are other production methods.

"Sorry, Aizen, I can't just watch you destroy [Karakura Town]!"

"One hundred thousand souls are added to the spiritual land in order to make the key. This is too cruel."

Hearing this, the smile on Aizen's face became even bigger.

"What an interesting statement."

"Captain Kyōband, the word [Gotei] in the so-called [Gotei 13], does it refer to Seireitei or Karakura Town?"

"Right now, Yohabach has boarded the [Spirit King's Palace], and his purpose is to kill the Soul King and return the world to chaos, which means... he wants to destroy the world.

"And now you want to stop me from making the key to the Spirit King's Palace, and you still use such a ridiculous reason as [too cruel]!"

“Whether you sacrifice Karakura Town to save the world, or wait for the world to be destroyed because you are too cruel, as the temporary captain of [Gotei 13], you can’t tell clearly, right?

"In this case, you still want to stop me...The truly cruel person is you, right? Captain Kyōband."

Aizen's words made Kyoraku Shunsui fall into silence. From a standpoint alone, Aizen's words were flawless.

There is no comparison at all between a mere Karakura Town and a hundred thousand souls compared to the entire world.

If it were Captain Yamamoto, he would sacrifice Karakura Town without hesitation.

but

"Are you secretly exchanging ideas with me?"

Kyoraku Shunsui narrowed his eyes slightly.

"To us, both you and Yhwach are enemies!"

"It's already rude to let Yohabach ascend to the Soul King's Palace. How is it possible that I let you go up?"

"Is it possible that after you go up there, you will stop Fahabach?"

"No...you will only accomplish your purpose."

"This is still a huge threat to the world!"

Hearing this, Aizen let out a breath.

"Captain of the Beijing Orchestra, you have a huge misunderstanding of me..."

"And, can you put down your Zanpakutō? Or do you expect this kind of thing to hurt me now?"

With that said, Aizen stepped forward and hit Kyoraku Shunsui's sword with his neck!

Kyoraku Shunsui's pupils shrank, and he slashed instantly, cutting off Aizen's neck with one blow.

"What!?"

At this moment, even Kyoraku Shunsui felt cold.

So simple?

No

It can't be that simple!

"Is this Kyōka Suigetsu?"

After Kyoraku Shunsui said this, there was a click, and the world in front of him seemed to be shattered and reconstructed before his eyes.

And Aizen was standing not far in front of him.

"How is it possible? I shouldn't have seen you liberating Zanpakutō?"

"Liberating Zanpakutō?"

Aizen chuckled.

"When did you get the illusion that the thing I'm holding is a slashing knife?"

As he spoke, Aizen shook the blade in his hand.

In the blink of an eye, the blade disappeared and merged into Aizen's hand.

"I evolved!"

"You no longer need a medium like Zanpakutō to activate your abilities!"

"That is to say————"

"I myself am [Kyōka Suigetsu]!"

Hearing this, Kyoraku Shunsui subconsciously took two steps back, and cold sweat could not help but flow from his back.

"Damn...

"I didn't expect that Qianye has been fighting with guys like you before... It's really scary!"

And at this moment, suddenly, a door appeared in the space next to it.

That was the [Boundary Crossing Gate]. After opening it, a surprising voice came out of it.

"This atmosphere is a bit subtle..."

"Did I come at the wrong time?"

Urahara Kisuke subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat and looked at the blue algae in the distance.

"It's not too late!"

"Aizen, if you want to go to the Soul King's Palace, you can come with us..."

Urahara Kisuke was talking cheerfully, but then, when he changed the topic, his expression became serious.

"Because, next, we will also force our way into the Spirit King's Palace."

Hearing this, Kyoraku Shunsui was shocked.

"What, forcefully break into the Spirit King's Palace?"

"What, Captain Jingyuan, don't you know... This is what Qianye asked me to prepare before!"

“Qianye…”

Kyoraku Shunsui looked around.

"Qianye hasn't..."

Before he could speak, Urahara Kisuke covered his mouth with a folding fan and said with a smile.

"Nothing yet?"

"Is it possible that you didn't hear it?"

"What did you hear?"

Hearing this, Aizen suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly and became a little quiet subconsciously.

Then

Not only him, but also Kyoraku Shunsui heard it.

That is the sound of heart beating!.
