Chapter 269

"Finally going to evolve!"

One must know that Aaroniero [Text garbled/missing in source]

At the same time, he was the only Espada among the ten who had broken his mask directly from a Gillian.

Therefore, as a Gillian, Aaroniero [Text garbled/missing in source]

"Devour him, Glotoneria!"

A purple light flashed, and Aaroniero [Text garbled/missing in source]

Senju Hoshiya looked at the Aaroniero before him and couldn't help but frown.

It must be said that this Aaroniero's Resurrección form is truly particularly disgusting.

One must know that the more complete the evolution of a Menos, the higher the level, the closer it is to a human.

As a Gillian, Aaroniero was only the lowest-level Menos, and his Resurrección form seemed to have no human shape at all.

What kind of effect would it have to perform a second Resurrección starting from this form?

Senju Hoshiya smiled slightly and cast the Six Paths Rinnegan genjutsu, forcibly hypnotizing him to begin evolution.

As if feeling the call of some power within his body, Aaroniero also let out a painful cry.

After a brief moment, the purple light on Aaroniero's body instantly bloomed, and the octopus-like tentacles instantly withered and fell off, replaced by a brand-new body.

As the lowest-level Menos and the ugliest Espada in appearance, what Aaroniero was most insecure about was this octopus-like body.

So even after Resurrección, Aaroniero used the image of a human he had once devoured to face everyone.

Now, after the evolution of the second Resurrección, Aaroniero finally had a human state.

"Evolution!"

"This is evolution!"

"It feels so cool!"

To be able to grow to this form step by step through devouring, and even evolve the heaven-defying ability of devouring to grow.

From a certain perspective, why isn't this a kind of strength?

Seeing that those lower-ranked Espadas whose strength was inferior to his own had all obtained the plan for a second evolution, the 6th Espada, Grimmjow [Text garbled/missing in source]

"Lord Senju, they have all obtained evolution; I, Grimmjow, am also willing to pledge my loyalty to Lord Senju!"

Hearing this, Senju Hoshiya seemed to notice Grimmjow's existence, but his expression remained indifferent, looking uninterested.

One must know that the Thousand-Year Blood War was basically a series of battles based on rules.

As a power-type Espada, the role Grimmjow could play was very limited; his role was no different from a sword.

It could only be used for simple slashing, but it couldn't deal substantial damage to that group of the Schutzstaffel.

"Fine, even a sword needs to be sharpened to be useful."

Thinking of this, Senju Hoshiya followed the same pattern.

His Panther King form after Resurrección directly evolved into Mecha Panther King, with a suit of deep blue spiritual pressure armor exuding a very intimidating aura.

The whole thing looked like a ghost panther from hell.

Up to this point, Senju Hoshiya's gaze glanced at Aizen.

"Although other Arrancars can achieve the effect of a second Resurrección, the improvement in ability is minimal; there is no need for me to take action personally."

"...Aizen, leave the rest to Itachi."

To go to war with the Wandenreich, the power of Hueco Mundo is indispensable.

Moreover, what Senju Hoshiya wanted was not just to defeat the Wandenreich.

Although the Soul Society is currently an ally, this is also based on the current situation.

If Yhwach is wiped out, there is no guarantee they won't turn their guns around.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni is a thousand-year-old fox, so one naturally has to be on guard.

Facing Senju Hoshiya's instructions, Aizen expressed that he didn't quite understand: "Lord Senju, your strength is extraordinary; there was no need to be so eager for success. These Arrancars have limited abilities; we just need to wait for them to evolve on their own."

Senju Hoshiya shook his head: "The reason I instructed this way naturally has my considerations; Itachi just need to follow orders."

Although Aizen still couldn't figure out why, he nodded: "Lord Senju, I understand."

Just as he was about to turn and leave, Senju Hoshiya suddenly called out to Aizen: "I know Itachi don't understand right now, but Itachi shouldn't have forgotten that bloody battle from a thousand years ago, right?"

Hearing Senju Hoshiya's question, Aizen was stunned for a moment, and then very shocked:

"Yhwach!"

One must know that Yhwach's name is like a nightmare throughout the Soul Society.

"Could it be that Yhwach is making a comeback?"

Seeing Aizen understand with just a hint, Senju Hoshiya saved a lot of time explaining.

After hearing the name Yhwach, Aizen was indeed no longer calm.

"Thanks to Lord Senju's reminder, this avoided letting Yhwach reap the benefits."

Seeing Aizen's expression of relief, Senju Hoshiya couldn't help but remind him again: "The current Yhwach is no longer the same as he was a thousand years ago."

"Itachi must know that what is sweeping in this time is not just Yhwach alone, but also his Wandenreich."

"Wandenreich?" Aizen's expression was full of doubt.

This was the first time he had heard this name.

Senju Hoshiya explained: "The Wandenreich is a kingdom established after Yhwach was defeated a thousand years ago."

"After a thousand years of forbearance and development, it has now achieved a considerable scale."

With Senju Hoshiya's explanation, although Aizen understood the origin of the Wandenreich, he still couldn't imagine the strength within it.

That it could make someone as terrifying as Senju Hoshiya wary showed that the Wandenreich indeed had terrifying aspects.

"Lord Senju, I understand; I will definitely make good use of the Hogyoku's power and strive to take the strength of these Arrancars to the next level."

Seeing Aizen's attitude, Senju Hoshiya nodded with satisfaction.

"It seems I can safely head to the World of the Living this time."

Hearing that she could return to reality, Inoue Orihime was very excited.

"Brother Senju, can we finally return to reality?"

Senju Hoshiya nodded: "Of course, not just us, even your little friends can go back together."

Hearing that she and her friends could go back, Inoue Orihime was even happier; she jumped in front of Senju Hoshiya and hugged him tightly.

"Inoue Orihime, Itachi're using too much force!"

Fortunately, it was soft, otherwise, this collision would have at least resulted in a fracture.

However, although it was soft, the pressure was full, making Senju Hoshiya's blood surge and almost unable to catch his breath.

Just as they were about to part, Senju Hoshiya looked back at Neliel.

Feeling Senju Hoshiya's gaze, Neliel's expression became slightly panicked.

He hadn't expected Neliel to have such a coy, womanly posture; this was a bit interesting.

"Nel, why do Itachi have that expression? Could it be that Itachi're reluctant to see me go?"

Neliel, as if her thoughts had been seen through, bit her lip and couldn't speak.

And at this moment, Senju Hoshiya smiled even more happily.

"I didn't expect Nel to be so reluctant to see me go; how about coming with me to the World of the Living?"

Hearing that she could return to the World of the Living with Senju Hoshiya, Neliel broke into a smile through her tears:

"Really?"

"Can I really return to the World of the Living with Itachi?"

Happiness came too suddenly, so suddenly that it made one a bit uneasy.

Neliel even suspected that she was hallucinating.

However, Senju Hoshiya directly reached out and touched Neliel's little head:

"Because Itachi regressed to an Adjuchas after your mask was broken before, it is a bit rash to perform a second Resurrección now."

"I originally intended to treat Itachi after bringing Itachi back to the World of the Living, and then guide Itachi to perform a second Resurrección."

Hearing Senju Hoshiya say this, Neliel was so happy she almost jumped up.

"Lord Senju, Itachi are so kind!"

After handing over the work here, Senju Hoshiya directly took Inoue Orihime and Neliel back to Karakura Town in the World of the Living.

Arriving in this modernized city, Senju Hoshiya really felt a bit unaccustomed.
