Chapter 254: Iron Man, it

This time, Ichigo and Aizen went on a mission, and Aizen dealt a heavy blow to Ichigo's invincible, arrogant heart.

Although members of the Yinweigong Society cannot harm each other, it is impossible to definitively judge who among them is stronger or weaker.

Yet, even if combat cannot determine strength, achievements can be used to judge.

Ichigo personally witnessed Aizen using Kyōka Suigetsu to hypnotize the entire population of Tokyo on a massive scale.

He also saw Aizen, with a faint smile on his lips, casually causing the two exposed Reincarnators to slit their own throats.

Rather than horror, it was more like creepiness.

Not to mention, even without his zanpakutō Kyōka Suigetsu, Aizen Sōjirō himself possesses immense strength.

Whether it be kidō, zanpakutō, or shikō.

Aizen Sōjirō is among the absolute pinnacle of Shinigami.

Ichigo firmly believed that if he fought Aizen, he would have not the slightest chance of victory.

This conclusion deeply saddened Ichigo.

He had originally thought that even if he wasn't the strongest in the Society, he was at least capable of contending for the title—only to meet Aizen, such an extraordinary freak, right after stepping out.

Su Xiao Xiao: "If that's the case, then the matter in Tokyo is left to you."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Aizen Sōjirō."

Although I know you're up to something.

As long as you don't turn this world's order into chaos.

I'll pretend I didn't see it.

Aizen Sōjirō: "... My lord! Sometimes you should give me a little confidence... Don't worry, this is still the world of Society members."

"I won't make a mess of this world."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Just remember the promise you made me."

Su Han slowly opened his eyes, then stretched out his body.

His Kenbunshoku Haki spread outward.

Then his eyebrows lifted slightly.

Su Han could clearly sense that outside, the armed police had opened their defensive line and sent personnel into the western district of Chiba City to conduct inspections.

And these... people who had already made peace with death, upon truly seeing the situation inside, all felt their scalps go numb.

"... It's a post-disaster scene! But not a single zombie can be seen..."

Seeing zombies isn't shocking—they prepared for that before entering—but seeing not a single zombie is truly creepy.

"No! Rather than... saying not a single zombie can be seen, it's more accurate to say not even a zombie's corpse can be found... This can no longer be described as unbelievable."

"It's a miracle."

"Yes... If I hadn't witnessed the entire scene of zombies attacking earlier, I'd almost have thought no zombie crisis had ever broken out."

"Did you see those countless lightning bolts falling from the sky? Such immense power, yet they harmed not a single one of us—only targeting zombies... I saw a zombie struck by one of those bolts and instantly reduced to ash."

The armed police captain, fully equipped and holding a submachine gun at the front, paused slightly in his steps.

He glanced deeply at the several team members behind him, his voice hoarse.

"Stay alert! Not seeing anything now doesn't mean it's truly safe."

Though he scolded sternly, his own heart was shaken.

He was an atheist, usually even disliking visits to shrines.

But today, his worldview was violently shaken.

Just recalling that scene filled him with genuine dread.

He genuinely began to doubt whether gods truly existed.

"If that were true... it would be too terrifying! When technological civilization advanced greatly, and humanity's reverence... faith in gods vanished—gods did not appear."

"But at the moment humanity was about to go extinct—gods appeared... They destroyed the root of the disaster that could have engulfed the world."

"If one thinks this way, perhaps such a god is remarkably great..."

The armed police captain's gaze flickered slightly; at this moment, he even felt a desire to meet the god who forged all this and kneel before that deity.

Su Han fell silent.

His Kenbunshoku Haki was so strong he could faintly sense the thoughts of these... armed police officers.

Yet he had no intention of meeting these... police members.

"Lord, where do we go next?"

Tony Stark said lazily, "Aizen probably still has things to handle! We'll probably need to sleep here one more night—should I have JARVIS hack the network and get us temporary identities?"

"You can rest, but you can't!"

Su Han glanced at Tony Stark.

""

Tony Stark blinked, then looked utterly bewildered.

He almost thought he'd misheard.

What are you doing, Lord? The mission's already over... isn't it? What else do you need me to do? And why can you rest but I can't?

"Use your brain, think carefully—you contributed almost nothing during this mission, did you?"

Su Han pressed his forehead, sighing deeply.

Tony Stark immediately opened his mouth to protest.

But after thinking it over, he remained silent, closing his mouth with a bitter smile.

He had brought the Iron Man armor and protected three local members.

He had also saved many people in Xijie just now.

But the key issue is that he never directly confronted the Reincarnator.

Even if Luo Hao had not acted before, she had at least faced the Reincarnator directly.
