Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Baraggan's Obsession
"Receive!"
A scene appeared before Uehara Soma.
Baraggan, sitting high on the throne of the Hollow Night Palace, as usual, accepting the kneeling of his subjects.
However, at this moment, an unexpected visitor appeared.
Aizen used the ability of Kyoka Suigetsu to deceive Baraggan.
Later, Aizen, along with Kaname Tosen and Gin Ichimaru, almost killed all of Baraggan's subordinates.
In anger, Baraggan attacked Aizen.
But he was no match for Aizen.
However, Aizen didn't kill Baraggan; instead, he recruited him as one of the Espada.
But for Baraggan, this was more disgraceful than being killed.
Originally the emperor elevated above the throne.
But in the next moment, he became a subordinate to others.
This enraged Baraggan to the extreme, constantly wanting to kill Aizen and seek revenge.
"I want to know how to defeat that damn guy!"
A skeleton appeared before Uehara Soma, as if a soul had just emerged from hell.
"Is it just a question?"
Uehara Soma felt a stir in his heart.
"No wonder they only need me."
"Hired hands are useless."
"After all, besides me, no one in the Shinobi world would know about the Shinigami world."
Skeleton, seeing Uehara Soma silent, began to lose patience.
"Can't you answer me?"
Uehara Soma snapped back to attention.
"It's not that I can't answer, it's that to defeat Aizen, besides the information I can provide, you also need the strength of the person going against Aizen..."
"You really know?"
Skeleton impatiently interrupted Uehara Soma.
Uehara Soma nodded.
"I know about Aizen, and if used properly, it can indeed defeat him."
"What is it?"
Uehara Soma explained slowly.
"Aizen is undoubtedly a genius, and he is nearly flawless in every aspect."
"Extremely powerful spiritual pressure."
"Eerie Zanpakuto abilities."
"High-level Kido, effortlessly performed."
"And also very adept at scheming."
"To defeat Aizen, one must first match or surpass him in spiritual pressure."
"Otherwise, there's basically no chance."
"Additionally, understanding Aizen's Zanpakuto abilities is crucial."
"Not falling for them, or knowing how to undo them if ensnared."
The Skeleton listened more attentively.
Everything else is inconsequential.
To the Skeleton, the key lies in Aizen's Zanpakuto abilities.
If he could figure out how to counter them, he'd have a chance.
"Aizen's Zanpakuto, named Kyoka Suigetsu, is a Genjutsu-type Zanpakuto."
"Anyone who witnesses Kyoka Suigetsu's shikai release falls under its Genjutsu."
"The method to break it is to touch Kyoka Suigetsu's blade before being fully hypnotized."
In the eye sockets of the skeleton, two orbs of blue-green flames flickered.
"So, in other words, as long as you don't look, it's fine?"
"In theory, that's correct."
"I understand."
In the next moment, suddenly, Uehara Soma found the scene before him drastically changed.
Another white palace appeared, overlapping with the current one, but not entirely the same.
It was like a parallel world.
Skeleton looked towards the second white palace, the flames in its eyes flickering with anticipation.
Uehara Soma followed its gaze.
There, he saw a majestic skeleton seated upon a throne, dressed in splendid attire.
Below, there were numerous large Hollows.
Before long, three figures appeared.
It was indeed Aizen, Kaname Tosen, and Gin Ichimaru.
Just as Aizen was about to release Kyoka Suigetsu, suddenly, the skeleton on the throne revealed a smile, reaching out and fiercely gouging its eye sockets.
Instantly, the two orbs of flames were plucked down.
Uehara Soma was slightly stunned and couldn't help but comment inwardly.
"Not looking at the shikai of Kyoka Suigetsu means you won't fall for it, so you just pluck out the eyeball flames directly?"
Uehara Soma almost thought that someone from the Uchiha clan was on the throne.
Across multiple dimensional worlds, the characteristic of plucking out eyes is unique to the Uchiha.
From insertion to extraction, even in the later stages, it doesn't require medical ninjas.
You can just take them out and use them.
"But, for safety's sake, it's still understandable."
Uehara Soma looked towards the Skeleton, pondering in his mind.
At this moment, all of the Skeleton's attention was focused on the other white palace.
Baraggan's actions surprised even Aizen.
But it was only a momentary astonishment.
Even though Baraggan had lost the eyeball flames and was immune to Kyoka Suigetsu, he still wasn't a match for Aizen.
The large Hollows below suffered heavy casualties under Aizen's trio.
Baraggan was still defeated.
He had to humiliatingly become Aizen's subordinate.
Even with the information about Kyoka Suigetsu, nothing changed.
Uehara Soma noticed that the nearby Skeleton's mood hit rock bottom the moment Baraggan was defeated.
Even the flames in its eye sockets dimmed significantly.
Just at that moment.
Uehara Soma suddenly felt a gaze.
Aizen in the other white palace seemed to sense something and looked in the direction of Uehara Soma and the Skeleton.
A wave of intense spiritual pressure swept over them.
Uehara Soma could see that the momentum almost materialized.
However, it ultimately did not penetrate the barrier between the two white palaces.
"Aizen, Squad Captain, what's wrong?"
Gin Ichimaru noticed Aizen's movement.
Aizen shook his head.
"It's nothing, probably just a misconception."
The second white palace disappeared from Uehara Soma's sight.
After a long while, the Skeleton finally came to his senses, lifted his head, and looked at Uehara Soma.
"Thank you for your information."
"I still haven't defeated that guy, but I won't break the promise I made."
Skeleton paused.
"Can I ask another question?"
"What question?"
"Has that guy been defeated by anyone?"
"Yes."
"By whom?"
"Well, it's not exactly by one person."
While Ichigo Kurosaki directly defeated Aizen, Kisuke Urahara sealed him, but in that battle, more than just those two were involved. It wouldn't be appropriate to credit the victory to a single individual. Moreover, even Aizen himself could be considered one of them.
According to Ichigo Kurosaki, it was at that moment when Aizen rejected the Hogyoku.
But the greatest credit truly goes to Ichigo Kurosaki and Kisuke Urahara.
"As long as he's defeated, that's all that matters."
The flames in Skeleton's eye sockets became intense again.
They even overflowed from the eye sockets.
Spreading outwards, engulfing the entire skull, descending along the neck, chest, abdomen, limbs...
Until the entire Skeleton was engulfed in flames.
A white bone dropped to the ground.
While the rest turned into ashes.
A voice echoed in Uehara Soma's mind.
