Four days. That's how long it took for the effect of those black spots to wear off. Even after that, I was only able to use time control to heal my wounds at a very slow rate. But as long as I could heal quickly, it didn't really matter that much. But on another note though, it seems this is becoming a bit too repetitive now, I mean I have to just laze around and wait for the effect of the damn black spots to wear off and then I will heal myself before training a bit. And right after that, I have to fight again as those bastards seem to have clairvoyance on when my small training finishes.
But this time, I am going to do it differently. While my body was still injured and in pain, I began a madman's workout. I tore my muscles and rebuilt them while I had my time powers on active the whole time. This not only increased the density, flexibility and the strength in my muscles, but also increased my control over the law of time. Meaning two birds with one stone.
I also kept up my sword training and magic training but because I have been doing so many things at once while enduring both physical and mental pain, I haven't been using my aura magic while all of this was happening. I know this might come back to bite me in the ass but I had no other choice.
Aura magic has run out of what it could do in battle for me. don't get me wrong, the haki like effect is still useful and it will remain so but I can't improve that haki like effect any longer without long term training which I don't have the time for.
Now I am not going to train in it just so that I could increase the range of its sensor ability because I have the feeling that the remaining two are actively looking for me and there is bound to be a time when we meet each other like this. That is why, I have been training in everything except for my aura magic.
After I was able to freely use my time powers, I completely healed myself and felt the change in my body. Because of the constant breaking and reconstructing of my muscles, it is no surprise that my current physical attributes are way above what it used to be. And apart from that, my lightning magic and vibration magic has increased in both power and control not to mention the control I gained over time.
"Seeping crest of turbidity. Arrogant vessel of lunacy! Boil forth and deny! Grow numb and flicker! Disrupt sleep! Crawling queen of iron! Eternally self-destructing doll of mud! Unite! Repulse! Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness!" There it is. I knew it was going to come back and haunt me. When I finished checking out the changes in my strength, a voice suddenly started chanting something and I already knew what kido spell this was.
"Hado #90: Kurohitsugi."
The sky appears to darken as multiple boxes of black energy appear, each of them topped off with cross-shaped spears, before they multiply and close in on their me. Soon enough, I was surrounded and sealed inside of a black spiritual coffin. Inside the coffin, a powerful torrent of gravity envelopes me but I negated it with my own control over space when several spear-like protrusions pierced the box, intent on lacerating the me who was inside, from head to toe. But here is what's different from me and the rest of those who were caught in this spell. I wasn't bound by the gravity.
I nimbly maneuvered my body as I dodged all incoming spears, the only damage I took was tears on my clothes. The shirt that I had just changed into damn it. Anyway, right now, I was so confident in my ability that I didn't really take Aizen seriously. I mean, now that my body is in its peak form, I could end him easily. To me, the only thing dangerous about him is his shikai. But since he knows that it won't work on me, all I have to do is avoid his only other form of attack, his kidos.
His swordsmanship might prove some trouble but that's it. Some trouble is all it comes down to. After I dodged every spear that came to make me into a porcupine, the coffin I was inside of started to fade as the outside world started to show once again.
Outside, Aizen was there with his face frozen. His face held that cocky smirk of victory that although small, could still annoy anyone who sees it. Seeing me completely unharmed apart from my clothes getting some scratches, Aizen's eyes widened slightly. Get it? Aizen, widen. Ok, bad joke.
"You could have greeted me better than that, you know?" I spoke while making sure he noticed both amusement and cockiness in my tone. And that he did, as he once again pointed his index finger at me to fire his spells by sheer annoyance probably.
"Hado #1: Sho"
"Hado #4: Byakurai."
"Hado #33: Sokatsui."
All three of the spells he fired were single target spells. The first one was of pure energy, the second was of lightning and the last one was of fire element. I used my lightning and vibration coated sword to block them, as while the vibrations does the dissipation of the spells, the lightning is there as the final barrier to block any remnant energy from the spells.
"Is that all? And here I was expecting more from you considering the way you presented yourself to me the last time we met." After blocking the attack, I spoke to him to see if I could get under his skin but instead he regained his calm as he watched me.
"It seems I won't have much chance against you at the peak of your strength. And considering you somehow knew about my shikai, I can't use that against you as well. In that case how about this then." Aizen spoke up until here as energy ruptures a large area around him, causing the ground to rise up in pillars, before rising into the air to form five enormous, light purple dragons above the now energy enveloped Aizen.
"Hado #99: Goryutenmetsu."
Seeing this scene, I pointed my sword at the massive energy dragon as the lightning and vibrations around started to expand and soon formed my own dragon. The lightning dragon that I made was covered by a coating of vibrations that was compressed to the limit. This way, the vibrations can both dissipate his energy dragon and explode his attack while the lightning that it was covering became its foundation to hold its ground against the attack. Kind of like a sword and the shield combination.
*Swish**Boom*
Once we swung our attacks at each other, the massive dragons above us flew towards each other as my vibration and lightning dragon collided with his energy and black spot dragons. The ensuing explosion was of course deafening but neither of us paid any mind to that as both of our attacks negated each other as we stared through the dust clouds.
"I guess this next attack will determine my fate then." Aizen spoke as he realized the current status quo. He knew that if the next attack did nothing against me his end would be here and so he decided to give it his all in this final attack.
"Had #96: Itto…"
Like I said, I had a lot of knowledge about kidos. And once I heard 'Hado #96' from his mouth, I decided to end this fight without letting him use the spell. I definitely don't want to face that spell. If you haven't realized yet, then let me give it to you straight.
Hado #96: Itto Kaso, is a forbidden offensive technique. The practitioner can only activate the spell by using their own body as the catalyst. Due to this effect, Aizen himself referred to it as the spell of sacrifice in the anime. The spell causes a brief shockwave followed by a massive pillar of red fire erupting from the ground in the shape of a katana's tip. The blast from the pillar is so forceful that it can completely obliterate all buildings within its vicinity. By using this spell, Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, the strongest Shinigami in soul society, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto lost his left arm. Now do you understand why I don't want to face off against that spell?
And that is why, in the middle of his chanting, I arrived before him in a flash and cut off his head. And like every other time, after I cut off his head, I blew up his body. Brutal and anti-climactic? Yeah. Do I care? Uh, let me think, hm, no. It was kill or be killed, so why should I care how it's done.
