Chapter 67

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni gritted his teeth, watching the scene before him change bit by bit.

"Aizen! You won't succeed!!"

"Heh."

Aizen heard the roar of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni in the distance and sneered: "Get out of the illusion first before you talk."

Aizen never thought he could rely on this to stop Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni; after all, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was powerful, and this mere illusion, while it could trap him, was only a matter of time before it was broken.

Withdrawing his gaze, Aizen continued to forge, and time passed slowly.

Before Aizen, a massive key slowly took shape.

The spreading ripples became stronger and stronger.

"Damn it, hurry up!"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni roared, waving his zanpakuto forcefully.

But, no matter what, the illusion before him could not be waved away.

"Open it for me!!!!"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s forehead veins bulged, feeling the powerful energy of the Oken about to take shape.

The Oken is the key to opening the Soul King Palace, and inside the Soul King Palace sleeps the Soul King; this world is also the Soul King's creation.

If the Soul King Palace were opened rashly and the Soul King awakened, then this world would cease to exist.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni widened his eyes, swinging his sword again and again, feeling the spreading ripple fluctuations becoming stronger.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni swung continuously, but after countless swings, this illusion showed no sign of being shattered.

Suddenly, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni seemed to understand something.

"Did I fall into a trap?"

Thinking this, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni reacted, stopped his swinging, and closed his eyes gently.

His robe fluttered without wind, and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni sat cross-legged in the sky; after a long time, he opened his eyes with a start.

The katana in his hand shone, as if sensing Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s summons, emitting a series of hums.

Standing up again, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s mouth curled slightly, emitting a series of laughs, and then the laughter grew louder.

"Good Aizen, you've improved really fast; even I was toyed with by you."

Muttering, suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

"All things in the universe, turn to ashes."

As soon as the words were spoken, the katana in his hand hummed, and with a boom, the blade began to burn with raging flames.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s smile vanished, his eyes were incredibly firm, and the flames on the katana were reflected in his eyes.

"Haa!"

With a shout, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni swung the katana in his hand.

"Ryujin Jakka!"

*Shing!*

At the moment of drawing the sword, a tornado-shaped wall of flames instantly gushed out, like a fire dragon; one could only hear the sound of raging flames burning violently in the void.

*Crackle!*

The sound of breaking through the air came, and Aizen's illusion was directly slashed open by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni’s sword.

"Aizen, stop!"

Another shout, and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, holding Ryujin Jakka, charged directly toward Aizen, but it was already too late.

Aizen floated in the air, and with the final soul imprint, suddenly, a powerful pressure erupted, and the strong ripples, like a hurricane, directly blew Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni away, along with the remaining members, all blown away.

Like rootless grass, swept away by a gale.

"It's done!"

Aizen’s mouth curled slightly, and light bloomed in his eyes beneath his glasses; chuckling twice, Aizen waved his hand, and immediately, the massive key appeared.

"It's over."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni opened his mouth wide, murmuring, looking at the massive key, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"The Oken has been forged."

But immediately, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni reacted: "No! How could I let you achieve this so easily!"

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni roared incessantly, and the guards behind him all rushed up...

Originally, after consecutive battles, they were already at the end of their rope, but there was no choice; they were the closest to Aizen.

But Aizen gave no chance, driving the Oken with both hands.

*Click, click.*

Two sounds rang out, and the gate of the Soul King Palace was directly opened.

As the door opened, an aura dispersed; desolate, powerful pressure spread, covering the sky and earth; this aura was so powerful that it directly overwhelmed the entire Soul Society.

"My god!"

"Aizen! Aizen opened the gate of the Soul King Palace!"

In the Soul Society, everyone looked at the sky in surprise, and some were even trembling all over because of the powerful pressure of the Soul King Palace.

"The gate is open."

At the Royal Guard, Ichibe Hyosube suddenly opened his eyes, sensing the direction of the fluctuation, and whispered.

"What a nuisance."

Seeming to sense the fluctuation and knowing the cause and effect, Ichibe Hyosube complained and rubbed his bald head.

"Wouldn't it be fine to just kill him?"

Behind him, Kirinji Tenjiro chewed on a blade of grass, arms crossed, wearing a long-sleeved, short-jacket-style haori, exposing his upper body, and spoke softly.

His eyes were cold, and when he said this, he occasionally revealed various cold glints.

"Another brat who doesn't know how to die."

"No need to rush."

Hikifune Kirio spoke with a smile, her face always wearing a smile, with swirl patterns on her cheeks, black camouflage on her lips, and two belts tied.

"Must make the move cleanly; don't make him suffer."

"Alright, alright."

Ichibe Hyosube reached out to stop everyone, then directly turned into a streak of light and vanished instantly.

"You all hurry too, don't let outsiders break in and disturb the Soul King's rest!"

As the words fell, the remaining people all turned into streaks of light and vanished instantly.

The Royal Guard is mobilized!

The strength of the Royal Guard is superior to the entire Gotei 13 and will not appear easily unless it is a critical moment.

Every member has also created significant matters for the Soul Society.

And this time, the entire Royal Guard was mobilized, which further explained the seriousness of this matter.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni might be the strongest, but in front of the Royal Guard, he was still not enough.

A powerful pressure struck, Aizen steadied his mind, frowned, and looked into the distance.

"They all came?"

Pushing up his glasses, Aizen chuckled twice: "Isn't it just poking a hole in the sky? Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?"

Muttering, Aizen laughed twice; in his eyes, the gentleness vanished instantly, replaced by a powerful fighting spirit.

"Fine, since you're here, let's have a good fight!"

His aura exploded, and Aizen soared into the sky instantly, charging directly toward the Royal Guard.

Ichibe Hyosube was at the front, his prayer beads and beard rustling; seeing Aizen charging up, Ichibe Hyosube laughed loudly twice.

"Brat, you're courting death!"

Ichibe Hyosube roared: "Bankai! Shirafude Ichimonji!"

Shirafude Ichimonji is an evolutionary zanpakuto that existed long before the world had Bankai; it can erase a person's name and carve a new one.

Ichibe Hyosube extended two fingers and wrote two large characters in the air: Black Ant.

His fingers turned into a palm and slapped toward Aizen: "Go!"

But, just as the two characters "Black Ant" were struck out, suddenly, a cold voice was heard.

"Hado #11, Tsuzuri Raiden."

A bolt of lightning directly shattered the two characters "Black Ant."
