Just as Yamamoto could no longer hold back and was about to personally take action, Wonderweiss, who had just ambushed Ukitake, made another move.
He took a deep breath, then suddenly emitted an extremely powerful sonic wave: "Wooooaaaahhh—!!!"
Crack, crack, crack...
Under Wonderweiss's sharp and powerful sonic wave, even the surface of the colossal iceberg that had risen straight from the ground, piercing the sky and freezing Harribel within, began to show faint cracks.
However, unfortunately, only some fine cracks appeared on the surface. The overall structure of the entire iceberg remained very stable.
Toshiro's strength was no longer comparable to that of the Toshiro in the original work.
In the original work, Wonderweiss could easily shatter the ice tower formed by Hyoten Hyakkaso with his sonic wave attack, but now he couldn't even shatter the iceberg condensed by Toshiro's casual strike.
Although Wonderweiss's sonic wave attack couldn't shatter Toshiro's iceberg, it did blow away the explosive force of the missile fired by Sui-Feng after her Bankai, revealing Baraggan inside.
After Wonderweiss emitted his powerful sonic wave attack, the giant one-eyed Arrancar beside him crawled towards Aizen, who was trapped inside the flame wall of Jokaku Enjo.
Whoosh—!!!
After crawling to the flame wall of Jokaku Enjo, the giant one-eyed Arrancar suddenly blew a breath of air at the flame wall.
Then, the flame wall formed by Yamamoto's Jokaku Enjo actually began to be extinguished by the gale blown by the one-eyed Arrancar.
"Oh dear, oh dear, this smell is still so... unpleasant." Gin couldn't help but frown subconsciously after smelling the scent carried by the one-eyed Arrancar's gale.
"I feel the same way. I didn't expect we would agree on this issue, Gin." Tosen said as he approached from not too far away.
"So this is what they call... the 'smell of death'? I think it feels quite fine, Gin." Aizen said with a smile.
"The smell of death, huh..." Gin said with narrowed eyes and an inscrutable expression.
As the three were speaking, the flame wall of Jokaku Enjo completely dissipated, not even a single spark remaining.
Then Aizen stepped forward a few paces, looked around at everyone on the battlefield, and murmured to himself: "This time... it really should end..."
Having said that, Aizen was about to take the initiative to walk towards where Toshiro and Yamamoto were.
"Wait a moment!"
Just as Aizen took a step, a voice suddenly came from behind.
Not far behind Aizen, the Vizard, Hirako Shinji, Sarugaki Hiyori, Yadomaru Lisa, Ushoda Hachigen, Muguruma Kensei, Otoribashi Rojuro, Kuna Mashiro, and Love Aikawa, all eight members suddenly appeared.
"Yo, long time no see, Aizen!" Shinji said, his voice filled with hatred.
Tosen said in surprise: "Those are..."
Gin said with an amused expression: "This is getting interesting... All familiar faces..."
Aizen also looked at the Vizard and said indifferently: "Indeed, it has been a long time..."
"Who are... those people?" Sui-Feng looked at the Vizard who had suddenly appeared in the distance and murmured to herself in confusion.
Sui-Feng had become a Captain some time after the Vizard fled Soul Society. She didn't even know the real reason Yoruichi had left Soul Society back then, let alone recognize the Vizard.
"Hirako Shinji..." Seeing Shinji and the other Vizard suddenly appear, Yamamoto also showed a hint of surprise, clearly not expecting the Vizard to appear in this battle.
"Hirako Shinji, so you were hiding in the Living World after all..." Although he hadn't expected Hirako and the others to suddenly appear on the battlefield, Yamamoto had long been aware that Hirako and the others were hiding in the Living World.
However, because Yamamoto himself sympathized with Hirako and the others' plight back then, even though he had sensed they might be hiding in the Living World, he had not organized the Shinigami of the Gotei 13 to search for them there.
And truth be told, not only Shinji and the others, but even Kisuke and Yoruichi, although Soul Society had never revoked their arrest warrants, they had never organized large-scale searches for them either.
At the very least, since Toshiro joined the Gotei 13, he had never heard of any plans to search for them, as if they had tacitly allowed them to remain hidden in the Living World.
Then, Shinji looked around at the Shinigami of the Gotei 13 and said to his companions beside him: "It's been a long time. Does anyone want to say hello to someone in the Gotei 13?"
"No!" The moment Hirako finished speaking, Hiyori immediately denied it arrogantly.
Aikawa said expressionlessly: "I don't."
Otoribashi said with a dejected look: "Neither do I."
Hachigen thought for a moment and said: "As for me... I never served in the Gotei 13, so I don't know them well."
Kensei said, full of resentment: "I don't either."
Mashiro said with a blank, cute look: "Huh? Kensei, you don't? Why?"
Lisa remained silent: "..."
Although the Vizard had ultimately been forced to flee Soul Society in disgrace and hide in the Living World mainly because of Aizen, back when they had undergone Hollowfication, Central 46 had unhesitatingly decided to abandon them and cold-heartedly ordered them to be 'disposed of'.
This had deeply chilled Shinji and the others, who had risked their lives for Soul Society, and consequently, they harbored resentment towards all of Soul Society.
As for the Gotei 13, although it wasn't directly responsible for Shinji's fate, back then, pressured by Central 46's orders, the Gotei 13 had not helped Shinji and the others seek justice.
Therefore, most of the Vizard were dissatisfied with the Gotei 13, and one by one, they were unwilling to go up and greet them.
However, Lisa was different from the others. She didn't harbor much resentment towards the Gotei 13.
Whoosh!
Lisa's figure flashed, heading towards Kyoraku, who was lying on the ground below.
"Hey! Lisa! Where are you going?" Hiyori shouted discontentedly, as if Lisa had become a traitor.
"Well then... I'll go say hello to the Captain-Commander and the others as well." Shinji said calmly upon seeing this.
Having said that, Shinji also headed towards Yamamoto and Toshiro.
"AGHH! AGHH! AGHH! DARN IT! DARN IT! DARN IT!"
Hiyori yelled in frustration: "Really! One after another, they've all become traitors! If you have any backbone, don't talk to those Gotei 13 people at all!!"
