"Qiang!"
With two metallic clangs, the impact was actually rebounded.
Ye Yun wasn't annoyed. With a thought, the Ruyi Jingu Bang began to shrink rapidly, turning back into an ordinary long stick that he held in his hand.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni sheathed his Zanpakuto and said calmly, "Not bad, even I find it a bit difficult to use."
Aizen Sousuke said calmly, "It's a pity you only mastered Shikai. If you had mastered Bankai, even I would have to take you seriously."
"No way, what are you two pretending for!?"
Ye Yun looked at the two of them speechlessly: "If my Soul-Slaying Blade were really that bad, would I need the two of you to block it together?"
His current spiritual power is close to two million points, comparable to sixty or seventy Baicun Zuozhen.
The moment the staff slammed down, he could clearly feel the Soul-Slaying Staff sink a little before it was countered.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni narrowed his eyes.
Aizen Sousuke's smile vanished.
Kyoraku Shunsui coughed and said, "Captain Aizen, you're already a captain, so why would you betray Soul Society?!"
Upon hearing Jing Le Shunsui's words, everyone's attention turned to Aizen Sousuke.
Aizen Sousuke said calmly:
"Kyoraku Shunsui, don't you want to see the scenery beyond this world? Don't you feel that staying in Soul Society only makes you feel the passing of life?"
"Don't you want to see what this guy, whom we all call the Spirit King and to whom we pledge our lives, actually looks like!?"
"I am about to transcend the boundaries of death and reach the realm of gods, to take the life of the Spirit King."
As he spoke, Aizen Sousuke raised his right hand and picked up a crystal-clear blue bead:
"And this is the first step towards the Throne of Heaven!"

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Kisuke Urahara's Imminent Disaster (Seeking Flowers and Monthly Tickets)
"Is that the Hogyoku Ye Yun mentioned!?"
"Why does it feel like just a bead?"
"It can allow the Grim Reaper to break through the boundary with Hollows?"
"Was Aizen's betrayal of the Seireitei solely because of this Hogyoku?"
"..."
All the Grim Reapers' gazes were fixed on the Hōgyoku.
No matter how they looked at it, they couldn't see how magical the bead was.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni narrowed his eyes.
Aizen Sousuke looked at him and said calmly, "I suppose none of the Shinigami, including the Captain-Commander, know the power of my Zanpakuto?"
Kyoraku Shunsui and the other Shinigami frowned slightly.
As far as they knew, Aizen Sousuke had once shown his Zanpakuto, which was of the Water type and possessed the power to control water flow.
However, it seems that Aizen Sousuke's Zanpakuto's power is not like that.
Under the watchful eyes of many captains, Aizen Sousuke swung his Zanpakuto, seemingly slicing through a stream of water, and said calmly:
"Mirror Flower Water Moon, its Soul-Slaying Blade's ability is complete hypnosis, possessing the power to control the five senses of others."
Soi Fon snorted coldly and said, "Those Stands of yours just now, they must have been hypnotized by your Zanpakuto, right?"
Hear this.
The pupils of all the team captains present shrank.
They still vividly remember the fake Aizen and his two companions from just now.
If it weren't for Ye Yun's reminder, Unohana Retsu's keen eyesight, and Soi Fon and Kuchiki Byakuya's decisiveness, they wouldn't have been able to distinguish between the real and the fake.
"You mean that one? That was just a failed experiment."
Aizen Sousuke shook his head and said calmly:
“At the time, I was fighting with the Chief Commander and hadn’t quite perfected the hypnosis of you ‘747’, otherwise you wouldn’t have been able to distinguish between the real and the fake.”
"Just like now, can you tell whether the person next to you is an enemy or a friend?"
As Aizen Sousuke spoke, everyone present was startled, for they saw that the people around them had changed.
Some became Ichimaru Gin.
Some became Tosen-yō.
The next second, everyone's figures changed back.
But a deep sense of apprehension arose in their hearts.
Complete hypnosis, control over the five senses—what a terrifying ability! In battle, this would be practically unbeatable.
Imagine you're fighting, and suddenly your mortal enemy turns into a friend.
Or you could just keep attacking the air and get killed by Aizen Sousuke with a single blow.
As they were thinking, they suddenly saw Sasaki Bejiro lying on the ground next to Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, covered in blood, his life hanging in the balance.
It seems even the chief captain has fallen victim to this... The captains present became increasingly vigilant.
"So, Captain-Commander, I succeeded in the end!"
Aizen Sousuke looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.
The latter squinted and pulled out a thumb-sized pebble from his pocket.
Ye Yun waved his hand from the side: "Hey, you old geezer, why are you taking out the Hogyoku for no reason? Didn't Urahara Kisuke order you to destroy the Hogyoku?"
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's pupils contracted slightly, and he suddenly exerted force with his fingers, but surprisingly, he didn't crush the pebble on the spot.
Aizen Sousuke then took a step forward and slashed fiercely at the Hogyoku.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni gripped Ryujin Jakka tightly with his right hand, the flames boiling as they slashed towards the Hōgyoku like a raging inferno across the sky.
"torch!!!"
"boom!"
A whirlwind of flames suddenly exploded into flames.
The raging flames engulfed an area of several dozen meters in radius.
At this moment, neither Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni nor Aizen Sosuke retreated; instead, they both placed themselves within the flames.
The blades of both struck the azure blue Hōgyoku almost simultaneously.
A powerful shockwave erupted from the center.
The First Division, already a ruin, was ravaged once again by the shockwave, with a layer of soil being scraped away, turning it into wasteland.
Ignoring the fierce wind and scorching heat, the captains present frowned and watched the clash between the Captain-Commander and Aizen with grave expressions.
Even though Aizen Sousuke was at a disadvantage, they still found it incredible.
Both are in their Zanpakuto Shikai form.
Aizen Sousuke was actually able to fight against the Captain-Commander who was going all out.
Was he really hiding it that well?
As the two clashed, the Hōgyoku trembled violently. In the midst of the clash, the Hōgyoku flew towards the horizon like a cannonball.
A cold glint flashed in Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's eyes as he continued to slash downwards with his sword.
But his strike only created huge cracks in the already desolate ground; Aizen Sousuke was nowhere to be seen.
The captains present quickly released their spiritual energy, or looked around, trying to find Aizen Sousuke, or at the very least, Ichimaru Gin and Tosen Kaname.
But they soon discovered...
The three of them seemed to have vanished into thin air.
While absorbing the spiritual energy of the First Squadron, Ye Yun pointed into the distance with his right hand and said casually:
"Old man, they went west, about 600 meters to your right, about four meters above the ground."
Upon hearing the specific location, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni didn't bother to investigate Ye Yun.
He slashed out with a fierce blow.
The scorching flames streaked across the night sky.
Aizen, Sousuke, and the other two had no choice but to avoid them.
Gin Ichimaru, with a corner of his clothes burned off, looked at Sosuke Aizen with a sly smile:
"Captain Aizen, that boy named Ye Yun seems to be immune to Kyoka Suigetsu's control. Should we take care of him first?"
Aizen Sousuke drew his Zanpakuto, preparing to unleash its Shikai.
But then he suddenly realized that Ye Yun had turned his head away.
Do you know the power of my Zanpakuto?
Kisuke Urahara?
A look of anger flashed in Aizen Sousuke's eyes.
That careless guy caused him so much trouble even before he came to Soul Society.
