Chapter 562

The great battle was about to erupt. Both Hui and Aizen were brimming with confidence.

"Are you going to use your Zanpakutō's ability? I can give you a chance."

Hui spoke, not putting Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu in his eyes.

Aizen's eyes chilled slightly at his words. He was a proud man. 

Even though Hui had overwhelmingly defeated him in his area of expertise before, Aizen believed this wasn't a reason for Hui to underestimate him this much.

"A tactic that has failed once has no meaning to be used again. Since you like to use a sword, then I will defeat you with swordsmanship."

In the end, Aizen still didn't use Kyōka Suigetsu's ability. Even though he desperately wanted to defeat Hui in the realm of illusion, he understood that his current self couldn't achieve this.

"That's great."

Hui didn't mind Aizen's avoidance. He just looked at Aizen and spoke earnestly and expectantly.

On the side, Yoru had already returned to her human form. She stood beside Unohana Retsu and spoke softly.

"This bastard seems to value Aizen very much. Is Aizen really that strong?"

Upon hearing this, Unohana nodded solemnly.

"I can feel that Aizen is very different from before. He is very strong now. I don't know exactly how strong, but definitely stronger than me."

She spoke, looking at Aizen, a fighting spirit also rising within her heart.

Yoru looked at Aizen. Although her intuition told her that this person was extremely dangerous, she still believed that Hui was stronger.

"Unfortunately, no matter how strong he is, he's still not this bastard's opponent."

Their conversation was heard by Gin Ichimaru and Ulquiorra, but their expressions remained unchanged.

Gin was thinking about what level the final result of this battle needed to be, or rather, the most suitable time for him to make his move.

Ulquiorra, on the other hand, was thinking about just how powerful Hui had to be to make Aizen treat him this way and to make Yoru trust him so much.

"I won't disappoint you."

As Aizen's voice fell, he shot towards Hui like an arrow.

He was so fast that the several people present couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"So fast!"

Yoru blurted out. 

She was called the Flash Goddess, speed was her forte, yet now seeing Aizen's speed, she found he was actually faster than her.

Unohana Retsu didn't speak, her gaze fixed intently. 

It was already regrettable that she couldn't join such a battle; if she didn't watch carefully, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.

As for Gin Ichimaru, his heart grew heavier, overturning many previous plans.

Because before this, even though he knew Aizen's strength had become very strong, he still hadn't expected Aizen to be able to reach this level.

As for Ulquiorra, his eyes were already wide, his entire being plunged into shock.

Because in his vision, Aizen had vanished from his original spot.

This meant that Aizen's current speed had already surpassed the limits of his vision.

But what shocked him even more was Hui.

Because he saw Hui similarly vanish in an instant. In Ulquiorra's field of vision, he could no longer see the two combatants, only the continuous overflow of energy in the air and the clanging sounds of sword clashes.

It could be said that he had lost the qualification to watch this battle.

However, there was nothing he could do. Hui and Aizen were simply too strong for Ulquiorra, not on the same level as him at all.

After all, in the original story, Aizen, after his initial fusion with the Hōgyoku, stated that his strength at this stage surpassed the sum total of the Espada!

As for Hui, needless to say, his power was beyond Ulquiorra's comprehension.

The two figures clashed frantically, Hui's sword and Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu constantly colliding.

"Such amazing swordsmanship skills, I didn't expect Aizen to also be a master swordsman."

Unohana spoke, truly surprised by Aizen.

During his time in Soul Society, the power Aizen displayed was mostly in Kidō. 

His accomplishments in swordsmanship could only be said to be average, unremarkable.

However, now it seemed that Aizen's swordsmanship was equally powerful. 

Although in terms of swordsmanship techniques alone, Aizen was inferior to her and Kenpachi Zaraki, with Aizen's current strength, speed, and reaction abilities, in the way of the sword, he might have already reached her level.

Clang! Clang! Clang!!!

Blades collided. At this moment, Hui in his normal state and Aizen were evenly matched, fighting neck and neck.

This surprised Aizen.

He naturally knew about Hui's rampage in Soul Society, and he also knew that in that battle, Hui suppressed all the captains of the Gotei 13.

But Aizen thought that this was mostly due to Hui's immunity to physical attacks.

After all, others couldn't hit him, but he could hit others. This ability was truly unfair.

However, the truth was that the swordsmanship Hui displayed at this moment was on par with him, who had already begun to merge with the Hōgyoku.

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Waves of sword energy appeared, flying chaotically in all directions. 

Some flew into the void, slowly dissipating. Some collided with the heavens and the earth, emitting loud explosions.

"So strong, for Aizen to be able to reach this level is truly mind boggling."

Yoru spoke, her tone filled with shock.

In her heart, Aizen wasn't actually a strong person. However, this notion was now overturned. Aizen's power made Yoru feel ashamed of her own inferiority.

Clang!

Another clashing sound rang out, and Mochizuki Hui was slightly excited.

Aizen, who had initially fused with the Hōgyoku, had greatly improved his physical qualities in all aspects, enough to make Hui in this state go all out.

While Aizen's heart was filled with solemnity, he also felt fortunate, and then excitement arose.

Solemn due to Hui's strength. 

Fortunate because Hui had only come to Hueco Mundo now. 

And excitement, because he felt that this was the most exhilarating battle since his debut.

"Worthy of being someone who could retreat unscathed after rampaging through Soul Society, even making Soul Society afraid to pursue and retaliate. Lord Hui's power is truly awe-inspiring."

Aizen spoke while attacking, his tone sounding very complimentary towards Hui.

"You're not bad either. You really haven't let down my expectations, having grown to this level."

Hui's words stunned Aizen, because his words sounded as if Hui knew that Aizen would become stronger, that he would grow to this extent.
