After testing the Reigai, the Captain all felt a heavy burden, their moods exceptionally somber.
Except for a few individuals from the Aozaki faction, including Unohana, the other Captain all had solemn expressions.
Facing the enemy, they dared not relax for a moment.
These Reigai are truly strong!
They were created by a mad scientist to be used as combat weapons.
When Inaba Kageroza copied them, it was clear he was reinforcing them for combat.
What is the basis for a Shinigami's combat power increase?
It is Reiatsu!
Therefore, in terms of Reiatsu, these copies have been specially strengthened and have surpassed their originals.
This gave the Captain a huge headache.
After all, their most prized combat assurance, which elevated them above ordinary Shinigami, had now become a weakness.
And the Zanpakuto abilities that usually dazzled enemies, the opponents also possessed them without exception.
With identical abilities and a disparity in Reiatsu, achieving victory was truly difficult.
At the same time, in a corner of the battlefield, Ichimaru Gin also confronted his own copy.
Looking at the man in front of him, whose aura was as cold as a venomous snake, he couldn't help but frown.
"You should have been killed by Shinji..."
"So that's it, it's that Inaba Kageroza fellow, quite fast, actually copied another one..."
"Actually, he's not that fast, I was a pre-prepared stock."
Reigai Gin Ichimaru smiled:
"No choice... Captain-class are valuable strategic forces, of course, the more the better."
Ichimaru Gin sighed inwardly, these Reigai were truly troublesome opponents.
They not only possess powerful Reiatsu but also master the Captain' skills and tactics, even their personalities and habits are identical.
Facing such enemies, it was indeed difficult to see a way to defeat them.
However, why is this copy's Reiatsu similar to his own?
No, even a little weaker than himself?
Ichimaru Gin asked with a puzzled expression:
"If that's the case, then why not create more and stronger Captain?"
"Like Captain Kyōraku of the Eighth Squad, or Captain Zaraki of the Eleventh Division."
"If a dozen monsters like Zaraki attacked together, destroying the Seireitei should be easy, right?"
"There's no need to copy every Captain; what's the point of copying more weak ones?"
Reigai Gin Ichimaru shook his head, saying helplessly:
"Copying a Captain is not as easy as you imagine."
"Our strength is limited by the materials used to create our bodies."
"Overly powerful Reiatsu simply cannot sustain prolonged combat, and some individuals are even difficult to copy."
Saying that, Reigai Gin Ichimaru looked down at a wristband-like object on the ground.
"Taking my Reiatsu as an example, if I don't wear a Reiatsu-restricting item, I can only be used as a one-time consumable."
"And after wearing these items, our strength is almost identical to that of ordinary Captain, roughly equivalent to Kensei Muguruma, who is currently besieging Unohana."
"Since that's the case, when individual extreme strength cannot be pursued, it's natural to seek more possibilities in combat and pursue diversification of abilities."
Reigai Gin Ichimaru spread his hands, indicating that all of this was a last resort.
If Inaba Kageroza could truly create Reigai without restrictions, he could just create a Yamamoto.
He wouldn't even need to create too many; one would be enough to destroy the world.
Ichimaru Gin didn't speak, frowning.
He had long grown accustomed to the persecution of the senior, Kensei Muguruma.
Even with Aozaki leading the way, others had naturally begun to treat him as a unit of combat power, without a trace of guilt in their hearts.
However, at this moment, Ichimaru Gin couldn't help but frown, asking in confusion:
"Is it really okay to tell me such an important matter so easily?"
Reigai Gin Ichimaru smiled slightly, explaining:
"That Lord never said that we couldn't answer your questions, did he?"
He paused, adding firmly:
"I haven't done anything... that doesn't comply with Lord's orders, you know."
Saying that, Reigai Gin Ichimaru's narrowed eyes opened slightly, revealing a deep and dark light.
"Lord? So, you've also found your sun?" Ichimaru Gin was startled, falling into contemplation.
Reigai Gin Ichimaru's lips curled into a disdainful sneer, and he slowly spoke in a mocking tone:
"Sun? How could that kind of guy become a sun? I'm just temporarily at his beck and call."
After speaking, he suddenly dropped his smile, his expression becoming serious, then he shouted loudly:
"Alright, enough chitchat, it's time to attack! I'm really curious, among the two of us, who truly has the right to stand beneath the sun!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ichimaru Gin straightened his body, his previously tightly closed eyes also opened slightly, and his gaze instantly became incredibly cold.
Just then, the two looked at each other.
The next moment, they simultaneously gripped the Shinsō in their hands, the sharp blade tips pointing directly at each other!
No need for further words, the blade light instantly extended!
At the same time, like Ichimaru Gin, the Reigai Captain of the Gotei 13 who had once died and been resurrected also reappeared on the battlefield.
For a moment, various powerful spiritual pressures collided, erupting in dazzling light and unleashing a terrifying impact capable of destroying everything.
Not far away, at a street intersection, Aizen stood quietly.
The reason he put aside his affairs and specifically took the time to come to this place was actually to serve as a safeguard.
At this moment, he calmly gazed at the fierce battlefield before him, as if waiting for something to happen.
Unless an unexpected situation arose that the Captain found difficult to handle, he would not easily intervene.
However, he mused inwardly, such a possibility was extremely slim.
Thinking this, he turned his gaze towards Unohana, who was being besieged by a total of thirty Kensei Mugurumas.
Clearly, Unohana was not fighting this battle with all her might; she seemed to be merely enjoying the fun of it.
Logically speaking, with her strength, facing Kensei Muguruma, even if the opponent used Bankai and she faced five of them simultaneously, she should be able to easily defeat them one by one.
However, at this moment, both sides were entangled in a struggle.
Aizen knew that Unohana had been led astray by Aozaki and Zaraki, learning to suppress her Reiatsu during combat.
For those battle-crazed fanatics, true enjoyment doesn't come from easily defeating an opponent.
Rather, it's the exhilarating experience of engaging in intense clashes with equally matched opponents.
If one cannot expect the opponent to become stronger, then one can only make oneself weaker.
This wife of the Captain-Commander was undoubtedly the closest existence to his own Reiatsu on the entire battlefield.
Even if she encountered difficulties, with the sharp curved blade in her hand, she would surely be able to cut through all obstacles.
Suddenly, Aizen frowned slightly, as if realizing something important, and quickly turned to look behind him.
After several seconds of deep thought, he turned back around, standing still like an old monk in meditation.
