So, hum, the plan was simple. While Ichigo drew the aggro...
BAM
KABBOOM
He was doing a very good job at that. Uryu would work as support, and Sora would be like the main DPS.
Bam
CLANG
CERO
SLHLANG
For those wondering what the fuck was happening... well, you see, they were getting their ass handed to them by Aizen Sosuke.
Anyway.
"Elementarschöpfung"—as those words left Sora's lips, he began to gather Reishi into his palm, altering its state to form real, physical elements. And since Sora was summoning fire and air... he used the air to make the flame hotter.
He let that shit rip.
Sora then proceeded to release the attack, sending waves of fire and torrents of wind toward his opponent—which, in this case, was the cockblocking Aizen Sosuke.
"Angriffsharmonie: Himmlisches Arsenal"—as thousands and thousands of Reishi weapons appeared behind Sora, he began to imbue them with the element.
You know, the usual. Controlling all of the elements. If you could name an element, chances were there was a weapon made of it behind him.
"Uryu!"
"On it!"
And without saying a word, as Sora released his attack, Uryu began spamming thousands—and I do mean thousands—of Reishi arrows.
In his Vollständig state, he could do this with ease. Weirdly enough, Sora wasn't in Vollständig yet, as if he was waiting for something. As if he knew Aizen would adapt to their abilities, and he was waiting for the moment where he was weak, to transform into his Vollständig form and deal the final blow.
Uryu's attack would seemingly merge with Sora's. Aizen would look up at the barrage of attacks coming toward him.
This was... pointless.
With a single swing of his blade, he released a powerful wave of energy. The beam of energy clashing with Sora's attack resulted in a stalemate.
Aizen raised his sword, and—
Clang
His sword met with Ichigo's attack.
"Using overwhelming attack to hide a sneak attack... smart. But such tricks will not work on me," Aizen said, before slashing toward Ichigo's general location.
The strike, however, never landed on Ichigo. Instead, Aizen slashed... a Reishi-imbued arrow.
KABOOM
Ichigo appeared next to Sora and Uryu.
In his Horn of Salvation state.
"I see you're working well with White," Sora commented. Ichigo's grip on his sword tightened.
"I can barely see his movements," the boy retorted.
Yeah... seemed about right.
"You're doing well as a tank... keep it up."
Ichigo looked at the several craters currently in the royal palace...
Sure.
"Why don't you give it a try, since you're like the best at everything?"
"How could I possibly take your spot? I may outshine you in everything, but a humble man such as myself will never take away your brightness. How could I possibly take your role as meatshie—I mean, tank?"
...
...
"Are you two done with your arguments?" the man said, his purple eyes looking down at them. Sora took out his gun and pointed it at Aizen.
"This is going to hurt."
The very next second, what seemed to be 100 Soras appeared, each pointing their gun at Aizen.
"Sturmregen" x100. And just like that, Sora used his extreme control over Reishi to siphon basically 90% of the Reishi in the Royal Palace.
Even using some of the Reishi found in the Ōken of the Squad Zero members. If they didn't respawn, that wasn't his problem.
Aizen didn't have to say it—he knew using Kido was useless, so instead...
The man just planned to tank it. This wouldn't do much damage to him. He was immortal, after all.
Aizen thought this was easy eats.
After all, this couldn't turn out bad for him.
Until—
ZSSSHHHHHHH—!!
Behind him.
Ichigo.
Getsuga Tensho already charged—his horn blazing—his sword singing.
"Getsuga..."
Aizen turned—just a second too late.
"TENSHOOOOOOOOO!!!"
SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMM!!!
Sora had a giddy grin on his face as he watched Ichigo's blade of salvation slash through Aizen's body, slicing the man clean in half.
Sora had seen this future. This was the future he wanted.
Ichigo's power... the ability to slice through fate. Immortality? That shit didn't matter. If given the chance, he could slice through it.
He could see it now: he was on Rukia's lap. Ichigo deserved a raise for it.
"Hm. The situation would have been quite hard if I was caught in that attack," a voice suddenly said.
...
Aizen could be seen, quite unharmed. Matter of fact, he seemed fine. Hm. If he was here, who were they jumping?
Gin's body fell limply to the floor... sliced in two...
...
Oh my.
Using his subordinate like that. No real care for human life at all.
Gin's body, however, vanished—to reveal an Arrancar.
"You see, I had anticipated that you would come. That me stealing your heart wouldn't be enough to take you down. So, I had made an Arrancar ahead of time."
"But how... we didn't look at your sword. When the hell did we fall under Kyoka Suigetsu?"
"Who said you had to look at my sword to be influenced?"
...
...
Well that made shit harder.
"I am a transcendent being. I and my sword are one—I fused with it. Now, it doesn't matter whether you look at my sword or not. As long as you are looking at me, that is enough for Kyoka Suigetsu to take hold."
...
...
Three pupils appeared in Sora's eyes. Then two pupils. Then what seemed to be glass appeared in front of Uryu and Ichigo's eyes.
Somewhere on Earth—
Ryuken would see some glass in front of him. Looking through them, he would see a battlefield.
Hm. It felt like Sora was using his eyes for something.
