"Yes!" As if hearing unspoken words, Aizen nodded arrogantly:
"Evolving in the midst of battle… when I uttered these words, no matter how dense you are, you should have understood!"
"The Hogyoku's ability is fundamentally not breaking through soul limits!"
"But rather, listening to the thoughts in the hearts of those around it, then responding, allowing their wishes to come true!"
"There's one thing you probably don't know!"
"And that is… the Hogyoku, actually possesses its own will!"
"Now the Hogyoku has finally understood my heart as well!"
As if echoing Aizen's words, after Aizen finished speaking, the Hogyoku emitted unparalleled brilliant light!
Under this light, the injuries Aizen suffered from Yamamoto's near self-destruct attack instantly completely healed… even his clothes restored to their original state.
Only, the middle of his clothes didn't close, revealing a perfect physique that, if thrown into a gym, would attract a crowd of young women!
Watching this scene akin to a miracle, everyone was shocked!
"Listening to thoughts in hearts and granting wishes… isn't that making dreams come true?"
Isshin said in astonishment.
Simultaneously, compared to Isshin, Yoruichi was even more impacted:
"Impossible, what 'making dreams come true'? We used the Hogyoku before and know its abilities perfectly well!"
"Ultimately, we ourselves can't make dreams come true, so how could we create something that allows others to do so?"
Such a question, like whether an omniscient, omnipotent God can create a stone He Himself cannot lift, is an absolute fallacy!
"This is the terrifying wisdom of this man, Urahara Kisuke!"
Sensing everyone's doubts, Aizen didn't explain.
But looking at the continuously silent Kisuke, Aizen was very puzzled:
"Urahara Kisuke, what are you still thinking about? Is my current state so difficult to comprehend for you?"
Hearing Aizen, just like countless times before, Kisuke produced his small fan and snapped it open, covering his face, making his expression unreadable.
Subsequently, Kisuke mysteriously said, "No, not at all! I just see something truly astonishing!"
Simultaneously, Kisuke also explained to Yoruichi: "The Hogyoku's true power, I had some inkling when Inoue-san and Sado-san awakened their Fullbring!"
"Inoue-san and Sado-san desired power, so they obtained power!"
"Yoruichi-chan, Aizen's explanation about the Hogyoku's ability is true!"
"Our breaking the boundary between Hollows and Shinigami likely also occurred because I wished it could break that boundary!"
"Actually, there's one thing I've always been pondering!"
Kisuke looked at Aizen, seriously asking:
"Aizen, a hundred years ago, your Hollowfication experiment never truly succeeded, right?"
"Yes!" Aizen admitted. "The one who truly Hollowfied Hirako Shinji and the others was undoubtedly you, Urahara Kisuke!"
"Turning Hollows into Shinigami, I have ample experience because there are case references, and it's a practically solvable problem presented before us."
"In Hueco Mundo, there exist naturally Arrancarized Vasto Lorde."
"However, among Shinigami, there are no naturally Hollowfied existences!"
"Nonexistent things, with no reference, requiring self-creation, are the most difficult to achieve!"
"I must also thank you, Urahara Kisuke. The Hollowfication experiments you conducted on Hirako Shinji and the others benefited me immensely!"
Aizen calmly narrated.
The prestige and oppressive aura of the strongest early-series Bleach's antagonist radiated.
Merely through dialogue, Kisuke and the other two were comprehensively suppressed!
If verbal combat precedes physical combat, then the champion of this verbal combat was already Aizen's.
Looking at such an Aizen, none of the trio could gain the upper hand.
Instinctively, Isshin and Yoruichi looked to Kisuke, seeking help from this strongest strategist: "Kisuke, what should we do?"
Hearing their question, Kisuke fell silent again!
In the center of their encirclement, Aizen also remained silent, instead expectantly watching Kisuke.
For him, since the Hogyoku had begun formal fusion, this battle was already declared victorious… what followed was merely continuously climbing upwards!
Kisuke and the others were merely minor diversions and nourishment on his ascent...
Aizen anticipated, anticipated that the few before him could give him more surprises!
This was the mentality of certain victory!
Because now, dealing with Aizen alone wasn't enough… the Hogyoku also had to be dealt with simultaneously to handle Aizen!
Seeing Kisuke remain silent for so long, Aizen even spoke up again to tease:
"The creator of the Hogyoku, actually completely helpless against his own creation."
"Then, Urahara Kisuke, as the creator, I acknowledge my debt to you. As long as you renounce hostility towards me, when I ascend to the throne, I can give you all the support you desire!"
"I guarantee, Urahara Kisuke, no one will be able to stop any experiment you wish to conduct in the future!"
Undoubtedly, this was an offer no researcher could refuse!
Yoruichi and Isshin both nervously watched Kisuke, fearing he might nod in agreement!
Simultaneously, watching this scene, even the bullet comments began to question whether they could still oppose Aizen.
"Bro, I surrender!"
"I initiated it."
"Indeed, if it were me I'd surrender. There's no fighting this!"
"Yeah, Aizen now has the Hogyoku in hand, he's simply invincible!"
"Aizen's current state is exactly like playing games on practice mode: Skills no cooldown, mana/health refresh, money increases as desired-"
"The Hogyoku is like an official hack!"
"Official hacking is most fatal. How to fight this? My evaluation is: better take it easy… wait and see what he plans to do!"
"Indeed!"
"+1!"
"+999!"
"+9999!"
At this point, looking at Aizen, no one had any fighting spirit left.
But Kisuke was no ordinary person!
