"Is your strength only at this level? How disappointing, Toshiro-kun."
After the aftermath, Aizen looked at Toshiro as if disappointed.
Just now, Aizen casually slashed out a Kenatsu, not using all his power, while Ice Dragon Tail was one of Toshiro's powerful techniques, but the power of the two was about the same.
"No, maybe it's not that you're too weak, but that I'm too strong in this state..."
Analyzing the strength Toshiro had just shown, Aizen couldn't help but add.
Judging from the strength Toshiro had just shown, it was actually a bit stronger than Aizen's true strength. However, after forcibly fusing with the Hogyoku, although Aizen's strength had not yet broken the limit of a Shinigami and entered the level of a true god, his Reiatsu had drastically increased in a short time, surpassing Toshiro's by a notch.
"Hmph, it seems that defeating you and obtaining the Hogyoku from you won't be difficult."
Aizen chuckled lightly, gathered powerful Reiatsu into his Zanpakuto, and then slashed another Kenatsu, even stronger than before, towards Toshiro.
Seeing this, Toshiro reversed his grip on his Zanpakuto and lightly tapped the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One ice wall after another rose from the ground, blocking in front of Toshiro.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Aizen's Kenatsu, like a smasher of rotten wood, destroyed Toshiro's ice walls one after another, then struck the last ice wall.
Bang!
The last ice wall also failed to stop Aizen's Kenatsu and directly shattered with a loud crash.
Then Toshiro directly swung his sword to meet Aizen's weakened Kenatsu.
Boom!
After Aizen's Kenatsu shattered Toshiro's layers of ice walls, its power was greatly weakened, so it was directly dispersed by Toshiro's sword.
Sshhkk!
Aizen's Kenatsu scattered in all directions, but one remnant force quietly grazed Toshiro's cheek.
Drip, drop...
Blood dripped along Toshiro's face, but Toshiro remained unmoved.
[Shunkuho!]
Toshiro's figure flashed, instantly disappearing from the spot, then suddenly appearing beside Aizen.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
One sword strike after another, containing a special artistic conception, was executed by Toshiro, attacking Aizen.
Moreover, just seeing the sword light gave one a feeling of being captivated and chilled to the heart, let alone dealing with it.
And seeing Toshiro's attack, Aizen instinctively felt a dangerous feeling rise in his heart, and then instinctively wanted to dodge.
But strangely, no matter which direction Aizen dodged, Toshiro's sword light followed him like a shadow.
"So this is your Kendo?"
Such a sharp sword move was obviously not an ordinary slash, but a special sword technique Toshiro had comprehended after reaching the highest level of Kendo, the tenth level.
So although Toshiro's attack this time was a Kendo technique, Aizen still dared not underestimate it. Seeing no way to avoid it, Aizen directly swung his sword to meet Toshiro's attack head-on.
Also at the highest level of Kendo, the tenth level, Aizen feared Toshiro's attack, but he was not afraid of it.
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!!
In an instant, the two clashed swords dozens or hundreds of times. For a moment, sword lights flashed, sparks flew, and the battle was very intense. Both sides were equally matched, hard to determine a winner.
[True Eye of the Dragon!]
An ice-blue light flashed in Toshiro's eyes, and then Aizen's attack trajectory, direction, weaknesses, and flaws were one by one displayed in Toshiro's eyes.
Toshiro immediately seized the opportunity, his Zanpakuto flying up and down, specifically targeting the weaknesses in Aizen's moves.
Sshhkk! Sshhkk! Sshhkk!
Aizen's clothes tore, and even shallow bloody scratches appeared on his body.
For a time, Toshiro gained absolute superiority in the Kendo exchange.
"Toshiro-kun's Kendo is truly impressive. It's probably comparable to Captain Unohana's, right?"
While barely defending against Toshiro's Kendo offensive, Aizen praised.
"Well, compared to Captain Unohana, my Kendo level amounts to nothing."
Toshiro humbly said, but his offensive became even more fierce.
Sshhkk!
Blood flowed, and another not-shallow wound appeared on Aizen's body.
But perhaps the pain of the wound stimulated Aizen, instead making him more clear-headed.
"Hmph, attacking my weakness with your strength, I've really been led into a trap by you, Toshiro-kun. Since your Kendo is better than mine, wouldn't it be fine to simply not compete in Kendo?"
Aizen suddenly snorted coldly.
Speaking thus, a sword strike containing powerful Reiatsu was directly slashed out.
Boom!
Aizen simply swung his Zanpakuto, directly causing a burst of air to explode. Then, carrying a strong wind pressure, Aizen's sword shattered Toshiro's countless sword lights and slashed towards Toshiro.
As Aizen's Zanpakuto was about to strike him, Toshiro only had time to hurriedly hold his sword horizontally in front of him.
Bang!
Toshiro's body was directly blasted away and slammed into the barrier formed by the Space Stabilizing Pillars.
"Guh!"
Toshiro directly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Cough, cough..."
"Damn it! The gap in Reiatsu is still a bit too big..."
Toshiro supported his body with his Zanpakuto and stood up again.
"It seems that to win, I have to rely on my Zanpakuto's abilities..."
In a Shinigami battle, firstly, it depends on Reiatsu. If the gap in Reiatsu is not too great, then what determines victory or defeat is the skills of the Zanpakuto.
Toshiro's Zanpakuto is the Strongest Ice-type Zanpakuto, clearly the most suitable type for combat.
Aizen's Zanpakuto, on the other hand, is an Illusion-type, not skilled in direct combat. Although the [Complete Hypnosis] ability is very overpowered, it has no effect on Toshiro. Aside from that, Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu basically has no other skills. In short, it has no ultimate moves.
Even in normal battles, apart from Kido, Aizen simply uses his powerful Reiatsu to overwhelm his opponents.
So, with Reiatsu weaker than Aizen's, if Toshiro wants to win, he can only hope that Hyorinmaru's powerful skills can make up for the gap in Reiatsu between them.
Thinking of this, Toshiro no longer relied on Kendo to entangle Aizen.
"Ryusenka!"
A blue light flashed behind Toshiro, and a pair of huge frost wings appeared. Then, the frost wings suddenly flapped, and Toshiro's body, like an arrow leaving the string, thrust his sword straight at Aizen.
"Danku!"
With a wave of his hand, Aizen formed a transparent, glass-like shield of Reiatsu in front of him.
Ding!
Toshiro's sword stabbed into Aizen's transparent shield.
Crack, crack, crack...
The moment Toshiro's sword tip touched the transparent shield, it directly froze it into ice.
Bang!
The ice shattered, and Toshiro's Zanpakuto continued thrusting towards Aizen with undiminished force.
Squelch!
Although Aizen twisted his body at the last moment, he was still stabbed in the abdomen by Toshiro.
Instantly, blood blossomed, but before it could fall, it was affected by Toshiro's power and turned into blood-red ice crystals, giving off a beautifully desolate feeling.
