After fighting for so long, Aizen saw more clues and spoke again:
"You were able to take my attack. It seems that you have also completed the evolution of your Zanpakutō. The chains on your arms are part of your Bankai, right? I didn't expect your arm to start fusing with your Zanpakutō as well. I could feel my right arm also integrating Kyōka Suigetsu. They are clearly different forms of evolution but have extremely similar endpoints. Maybe this is the original form of Zanpakutō. Do you think our current forms resemble that of one person?"
"What are you talking about?" Kurosaki Ichigo didn't mean to ignore Aizen.
In fact, he either couldn't understand most of what this guy said or only vaguely understood it.
Moreover, the other party was pursuing power, which was different from him.
If there was no consensus, it was better not to say anything.
Aizen still maintained his old habit of teaching and explaining:
"This is Uehara Shiroha. He mastered this power before we did. And his fusion is more perfect, more mature, and more powerful. It's really interesting! It's just that he took the lead. Now, I have the power to surpass it! Whether it's you or him, you're both already past tense."
He was very confident about this.
In his opinion, Uehara Shiroha relied only on the power of a transcendent and the ability to become one with the sword.
He already had these.
Possessing the Hōgyoku, he could develop his potential to the maximum extent.
There was no reason for him to lose to anyone.
"Really?" Kurosaki Ichigo expressed doubt.
Aizen didn't care and boasted:
"It seems you are very unconvinced. But I have already gotten the answer from the fight just now. Your slash is too weak. My evolution has indeed surpassed yours by one dimension. If I want, I can completely shatter your Zanpakutō with one strike."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly burst out with even more terrifying strength and speed, and the huge butterfly wings behind him and the Hōgyoku on his chest also sparkled.
He used speed and strength far exceeding that of his opponent to deliver an astonishing blow.
Of course, it was according to what he said here.
The power of the Transcendent was so strong that it had elevated his basic abilities to an extremely terrifying level.
So when he used all his strength, his attack was several levels stronger than before.
Aizen thought he would be able to easily defeat Kurosaki Ichigo this time.
But an incredible scene appeared.
Facing Aizen's full-strength attack, Kurosaki Ichigo remained expressionless. He took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and grasped the blade that Aizen was using to condense his terrifying reiatsu.
Kurosaki Ichigo grasped Aizen's blade with one hand.
This scene was very familiar.
Because that was how Aizen had once dealt with Kurosaki Ichigo.
It was just that "things change," and now it was Kurosaki Ichigo's turn to show off.
Under his obstruction, the terrifying power carried by the blade exploded.
Part of the leaked slashing force formed a hurricane, flattening the place where the two men were standing and digging out trenches.
The earth tore apart and the rocks shattered.
Just the aftermath alone had such destructive power.
This was the power of the transcendent!
Even so, Kurosaki Ichigo did not move, and even his eyes did not change at all.
"How is this possible?!" Aizen's pupils trembled in his purple eyes, his face full of disbelief:
"He actually blocked it? I can understand him avoiding me! No, even dodging it should be impossible. Because that is not a speed that a Shinigami can dodge... But if it was him, there was indeed a possibility of avoiding it. But... he actually blocked my attack with one hand."
He racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.
Before, he had always blocked his opponent's full-strength attacks with ease, destroying the enemy's confidence and dignity.
Now it was his turn to be destroyed.
Aizen couldn't accept it, couldn't understand it.
Kurosaki Ichigo finally started his "long speech":
"What's so surprising? I blocked your attack with my hand—are you so unbelieving?"
"What?" Hearing these familiar words and tone, Aizen was stunned.
Such a strong sense of déjà vu.
Not long ago, he had been giving Kurosaki Ichigo "training" like this, but now he was being taught a lesson.
Kurosaki Ichigo continued to "put on airs":
"Are you scared? Being scared because something is happening that you can't understand."
Just like Vasto Lorde Ichigo had humiliated Ulquiorra, Kurosaki Ichigo also returned all the words that Aizen had said to him with interest.
Although he had not waited until the next day to take revenge.
But if you really made him angry, he would pay you back double.
When it came to showing off, Kurosaki Ichigo wouldn't remain silent.
"How interesting, Kurosaki Ichigo!" After sneering, Aizen flew back and said in a firm tone:
"You said something happened that I can't understand? How shameless! Don't act like you've already won. Just now it was only because your muscle strength temporarily surpassed mine for a moment. A miracle of that magnitude happens once in a while. But I am beyond miracles. I will completely crush all your hopes and make sure that miracles will never happen again. I will use my Kidō to completely defeat you!"
