"My right hand is the sun!"
Boom boom boom!
As the giant fireball rolled forward, it seemed to distort space wherever it went. Even from nearly a hundred meters away, the intense heat made it impossible to open one's eyes.
Seeing this, Vladimir's expression remained calm, unmoved. He simply chanted softly, "Kidō #81: Dankū!"
Suddenly, a giant wall of Reiatsu materialized before him.
This defensive wall seemed to divide space into two.
The blinding white fireball collided with Dankū and then exploded violently.
Boom!
Gales swept through, and heatwaves washed over everything.
The resulting shockwaves spread, affecting the stream and waterfall, covering an area of several hundred meters.
Dust billowed, and the field of vision was filled with white light.
The entire scene descended into chaos. Especially at the center of the explosion, the temperature reached tens of thousands of degrees, making it impossible for ordinary people to even breathe.
However, Vladimir, standing behind Dankū, remained calm. Kidō #81 was sufficient to defend against this attack.
"Using some strange techniques!" Charlotte Linlin and Lujet, hiding far away, said coldly. "Lujet, use the Dream Realm to suppress him!"
"Yes!"
Instantly, Vladimir felt another repelling force.
It was like a peculiar pressure, coming from all directions, compressing his body inward.
At this moment, from beneath the ground behind Vladimir, a dark soul emerged from the earth.
This soul was incredibly massive, hundreds of meters in size, shaped like a monster.
It had only a pair of round eyes, emitting a terrifying glow.
With a roar, two tentacles extended from the monster's body and lashed violently towards Vladimir.
"Hehehehe… You're afraid to get close now? Your judgment was correct, but it's meaningless."
Shunpo!
As his voice fell, before the two soul tentacles could strike him, Vladimir's figure suddenly vanished.
Observation Haki couldn't track it. It wasn't a matter of whether it could keep up with Shunpo, but rather that the systems were different. To see Shunpo, one would need Reiatsu.
Bang!
The two soul tentacles struck the ground. In the next instant, a sword light flashed.
Pfft pfft!
The giant monster was cut in half at the waist, separating into upper and lower parts. With a splat, it exploded, turning into a sky full of soul substance.
"What?!" Charlotte Linlin exclaimed in shock. "A normal slash couldn't have such a powerful effect. That sword…!"
The monster was an aggregation of souls, a product of countless soul avatars. It possessed the characteristic of being immune to ordinary physical attacks.
However, at this moment, it was cut by a single sword.
Before Charlotte Linlin could recover, Vladimir, who was a hundred meters away, suddenly disappeared again. In the next moment, he appeared before her.
"Damn it! Can this high-speed movement ability be used without restriction?!" she thought in horror, instinctively retreating to create distance.
However, Vladimir ignored her and extended his left palm towards Lujet on the other side.
His gaze sharpened, and Reiatsu converged.
"Sleep Palm!"
Lujet's heart tightened. She felt an impact directly reach her soul. In the next moment, her eyelids grew heavy, and she was overcome by an intense drowsiness.
"Mama…"
She only managed to utter half a sentence before falling backward.
With a thud, Lujet collapsed to the ground, falling asleep.
As she fell unconscious, the repelling force on Vladimir vanished without a trace.
"You scoundrel, your target was her from the beginning!" Charlotte Linlin shouted angrily.
"Only you are left."
Vladimir flicked his sword, holding the katana vertically. "This katana is no ordinary sword. It's called Zangetsu, a weapon that specifically slays souls."
"So that's why you could do it earlier?" Charlotte Linlin was extremely wary, not daring to be careless. "Hmph, why are you specifically telling me this? What do you want?"
"Nothing in particular."
Vladimir chuckled. "I'm not a murderer. Since you survived having your heart pierced, rather than killing you, I'd rather you do something for me."
"Dream on!" Charlotte Linlin grinned, revealing a hideous, terrifying smile. "I'd rather die than let you have your way!"
"Is that so? Mere human, don't speak too confidently."
Vladimir raised his Zangetsu again, raising an eyebrow. "Continuing our previous topic, my Zangetsu can unleash a second release. The first stage is called Shikai, and the second is Bankai. The release of the sword is the release of Reiatsu."
"What?"
Charlotte Linlin had a bad feeling, a feeling that made her quite agitated.
Vladimir continued, "I'm not explaining my abilities to you out of idleness, but to tell you a fact. After Shikai, my Reiatsu can double. After Bankai, my Reiatsu can reach five to ten times."
Of course, this was an exaggeration.
Even with Shikai, Vladimir's Reiatsu wouldn't increase that much.
This was because Aizen Sōsuke himself was special. Unlike ordinary Shinigami, his Reiatsu, even in its unreleased state, was already close to the limit for a Shinigami.
