"Father!"
Feeling the Reiatsu wave coming toward him and the overwhelming killing intent.
Byakuya Kuchiki finally snapped out of the pain of losing his father. Thinking of Kuchiki Sōjun's words before his death, he completely let go of the stubbornness in his heart after losing to Aiyan, turned around to use Shunpo, and flashed toward the Fifth Division.
Clang
But before he had gone far, Senbonzakura dodged to cut off his retreat and slashed at his neck.
At the same time.
Kuchiki Ginrei behind him also finished condensing Cero.
He was so crazy that he could even break up his own son Kuchiki Sōjun into spirit particles, let alone Byakuya Kuchiki and the materialized Senbonzakura.
Light blooms.
A Cero with extremely high Reiatsu density crossed the sky above the Kuchiki mansion and blasted toward Byakuya Kuchiki.
This attack included both Byakuya Kuchiki and Senbonzakura in the range of destruction.
"Is this the end?"
Senbonzakura in the front, Kuchiki Ginrei's Cero in the back.
Lost everything overnight.
After suffering his grandfather's Hollow, his father's tragic death, and Senbonzakura's betrayal, Byakuya Kuchiki was completely devastated.
"Is it too late?"
An unusually familiar voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Byakuya Kuchiki, who had closed his eyes and waited for death, suddenly opened his eyes and saw a shining sky covering Seireitei's night, even splitting the despair covering his heart, with golden light flying through the air.
He only saw the golden light shining from the distance, then a figure appeared beside him out of thin air. Then, under Senbonzakura's blade threat, he slowly stretched out a finger and forcibly stopped the blade from killing him.
"Zanpakutō rebellion."
"So, Kōga escaped prison."
"The Headmaster is still merciful!"
Aiyan stepped into the light, stopped Senbonzakura's blade with one finger, pressed with his fingertip, and pointed directly at the materialized Senbonzakura:
"Laser light!"
With the fingertip as the center, a circle of golden brilliance bloomed, then the laser beam shot out, covering Senbonzakura's chest.
Boom
The light flashed and turned into a huge Reiatsu fireball, drowning Senbonzakura's body.
"It is indeed the Hollow experiment!"
With a snap of his fingers, after disposing of the materialized Senbonzakura, Aiyan turned his head and glanced at the Hollowified Shinigami:
Ama no Murakumo!"
He opened five fingers and gently grabbed the air. Reiatsu photons condensed, forming a lightsaber that fell into his hand when he closed his fingers.
Whoosh
The moment the Ama no Murakumo was taken, Byakuya Kuchiki only felt Aiyan's figure beside him blur slightly in his sight, with faint golden light blooming, then returning to its original state.
But less than a hundredth of a second later.
Pfft
Besides Kuchiki Ginrei, the other nine Hollowified Shinigami had their masks and heads cut off together.
In the blink of an eye, Aiyan pierced Senbonzakura with a laser beam and instantly killed nine Hollowified Shinigami with the Ama no Murakumo.
After doing all this, the scarlet Cero released by Kuchiki Ginrei belatedly arrived in front of him.
One can imagine how fast Aiyan was.
In just a moment, so many things were completed.
"Careful!"
Seeing the Cero so close, Byakuya Kuchiki reacted as if waking from a dream.
When Aiyan heard this, he still looked calm and unhurried, pointing to his left hand without haste.
Whoosh
With a sharp sound piercing the air, a laser beam burst out from the fingertip, hitting the oncoming scarlet Cero.
If you compare size alone, Kuchiki Ginrei's Cero was at least ten times larger than Aiyan's laser beam.
But when comparing Poppy's shape, is it size that matters?
No.
It's about who controls the position better.
This law still holds true in Soul Society.
Of course.
In addition to positioning, strength is also crucial.
And what about Kuchiki Ginrei?
The position was not accurate.
There was a huge disparity in strength.
Boom
When the laser beam collided with the scarlet Cero, a brilliant golden-red light suddenly bloomed, dividing the entire Kuchiki mansion into two parts, one golden and one red.
It presented a horrifying scene with clear separation.
However, this stalemate did not last long. Instead, in less than a second, the scarlet Cero was penetrated from the center by the laser beam, then scattered into spirit particles, finally turning into drifting dust in the sky.
Whoosh
At the same time.
The laser beam continued without slowing down, and after destroying the scarlet Cero, it bombarded Kuchiki Ginrei, first piercing his chest, then a huge Reiatsu explosion blew him away.
"Thank you."
Seeing Aiyan descend like a divine weapon from heaven at the critical moment of life and death for himself and the Kuchiki family.
Byakuya Kuchiki's expression was very complicated, including gratitude, shame, and excitement.
Apparently.
With strong self-esteem, he was saved by someone stronger than him in the past. He didn't know how to face it or what to say. The corners of his mouth wriggled a few times, and in the end, he only managed to say these five words.
"Aiyan..."
On the other hand,
After Aizen saw his brother enter, he knew that this big drama should come to an end.
So, in Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes, despite Kōga's identity, he shouted hatefully.
"Kōga!"
Aiyan understood it, and the two brothers began performing wildly, leaving Byakuya Kuchiki stunned.
"It's you again who ruined my good deeds."
Aizen said coldly.
"I didn't expect it!"
"You're actually still alive."
"I thought you would die in Kuchiki Ginrei's hands."
Aiyan's voice was neither salty nor bland.
"There's more you didn't expect!"
"Don't know?"
"The Byakuya Kuchiki you just protected is the grandson of your enemy!"
Aizen laughed wildly:
"You thought you saved the Kuchiki family? You thought you saved Byakuya Kuchiki? You actually saved your enemy."
"To tell you the truth, your brother was attacked at the Shin'ō Academy."
"It was arranged by Kuchiki Ginrei."
As soon as these words came out.
Aiyan's face changed slightly.
"You're lying!"
"My grandfather was a role model for Shinigami."
"How could he do such despicable things?"
When Byakuya Kuchiki heard this, he became furious.
He would never tolerate an enemy of the Kuchiki family throwing dirty water after killing his father and grandfather.
Moreover, if what Kōga said was true, then he really wouldn't have the face to face Aiyan, who had saved his life.
"Shinigami role model?"
"Don't make me laugh. Do you think the title of the head of the Kuchiki family's noble clan came with the wind?"
"I used Muramasa, swords, and guns to help Kuchiki Ginrei kill his way up."
Aizen wearing Kōga's mask stabbed Byakuya Kuchiki again:
"Also, you're also responsible for the attack on Aiyan and Aizen!"
"Byakuya Kuchiki!"
"On the day the Aiyan brothers were attacked, did you forget what Kuchiki Ginrei ordered you to do?"
As soon as the words fell.
Byakuya Kuchiki's body trembled suddenly, as if struck by lightning.
He had a hot temper and an impulsive personality, but he wasn't stupid.
Aizen's words immediately reminded him of that day when Kuchiki Ginrei ordered him to test the Aiyan brothers.
After putting all this together, how could he not know that Aizen's words were true.
