Having figured all this out, Aizen felt a sense of boredom deep down.
At first glance, none of these worldviews seem to surpass those of the Grim Reaper, and there don't seem to be many people he can consider his opponents.
"I am Daoqing of the Quanzhen School. What brings you to the capital at this time, benefactor?"
This middle-aged Taoist priest was polite, but his eyes betrayed a constant vigilance.
The energy fluctuations that had previously slaughtered dozens of foreign soldiers were extremely strong in this person's perception.
Coming to his senses, Aizen said calmly, "Defend the last shred of dignity of China."
"Um"
Dao Qing frowned slightly, looking at Aizen suspiciously: "What does upholding the dignity of our Chinese nation have to do with you? What exactly is your purpose?"
"Descendants of Yan and Huang"
"impossible!"
Aizen had barely uttered a sentence when Dosei vehemently denied it.
Even if someone is of mixed race, they shouldn't look like this. In Daoqing's understanding, this clearly Western appearance makes it absolutely impossible for someone of Chinese descent.
As soon as he blurted it out, Daoqing fell silent for a moment.
Since the other side did indeed kill those foreign soldiers to help the Chinese people, they certainly don't seem like evil people.
After much hesitation, Daoqing shook his head and said, "Whatever your purpose, please do not cause any more trouble in the capital."
"If it's convenient, I would appreciate it if you could leave. Your rampage will make those otherworldly beings from other countries think that Chinese beings from another realm have joined the fight, which would be a huge loss if it sparked a war between them."
Upon hearing this, Aizen understood something.
During the First Sino-Japanese War, the extraordinary individuals from China did not intervene because they feared that extraordinary individuals from other countries would join in.
If the supernatural being is exposed, it's a minor issue; it can be covered up later.
However, the war between superhumans will cause even more destruction and casualties among ordinary people.
And this time, the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance was even more so.
Once a war breaks out with the superhumans from eight different countries, even with China's strong foundation, it will only result in greater casualties as everyone is on equal footing.
Moreover, once the world of supernatural beings is defeated, China can basically be said to have completely fallen. This is why they are just observing from the shadows and not taking the initiative to act.
"Ha, the world of supernatural beings has nothing to do with me."
After thinking it through, Aizen chuckled and shook his head in refusal.
He wasn't the kind of cowardly brute who thought that negotiating peace, paying reparations, and not fighting to the death were cowardly acts.
The people need peace more than anything, and he believes that paying a certain price to buy time when the country's strength is insufficient to wage war is the right policy.
But when faced with an open invasion, when one's dignity and backbone are about to be broken and trampled underfoot by the enemy, there is no need for forbearance! Upon hearing this, Daoqing's eyes instantly turned hostile.
"Since that's the case, I have no choice but to accept your offer."
"Get out of here."
boom.
Aizen, now in white light mode, punched his opponent into a stone wall, who coughed up a mouthful of bitter water and fainted with his eyes rolling back.
The figure gradually blurred and disappeared, and the white line trailing in the air also vanished.
Afterimage! Shaking his fist, Aizen headed straight towards the imperial city without looking back.
Chapter 180 The Invincibility of Blue Theory 14/18
Aizen, who easily defeated Daoqing of the Quanzhen Sect, did not receive any more hidden quests.
Perhaps it's because this person never appeared in the original work.
Killing a level-one character in an instant is really no problem for Aizen. Only Okada and his companion, who were also only level-one, were driven away by the Maoshan Taoists after they entered China.
Along the way, Aizen completely let loose and let himself go.
If he couldn't stand something, he would kill it! If he was angry, he would kill it! Before long, his killings reached thousands.
This level of slaughter surpasses the total killings of the past decade combined.
As he continued to vent his anger, the smile on his face gradually returned, although it was still fake. At least he had regained his former rationality through venting.
"Indeed, violence is the best way to release emotions."
""
The system was speechless for a moment, then said, "Hey, hey, hey, being a violent maniac isn't your persona."
007
"
"The Buddha speaks of compassion, yet there are times when he is fierce and wrathful."
Human nature is complex; there is no pure evil, nor is there absolute good in the world. Being different from the past does not mean that I am no longer myself.
"Once again, the German squad has been wiped out," Aizen said calmly.
"Forget it."
Once again, Aizen used "Blue Theory" on him.
The defeated system declared that it no longer wanted to reason with it.
However, looking at Aizen and Iori, who used to be so strategic and rarely took action, and whose attacks were usually swift and decisive, rarely lasting more than five minutes and whose actual actions took less than a minute, the system found it quite exciting.
However, what the system found laughable was that, apart from the foreign troops killed by Aizen, the people blocking Aizen's path were all Chinese superhumans.
At first, Aizen was mindful of not offending the entire world of supernatural beings before dealing with his own affairs, so he was relatively restrained in his actions, only knocking the person unconscious.
But with wave after wave of obstacles, Aizen, whose patience was gradually wearing thin, no longer showed any mercy.
Just spare his life.
Severe injuries, broken limbs, or permanent disabilities are simply their bad luck! Aizen was clear about his purpose from the beginning; he was neither a savior nor a hero who did good deeds.
He only wanted to preserve the last backbone and dignity of China; everything else was irrelevant to him. His early intervention was simply a matter of his conscience.
To put it bluntly, he would show no mercy to anyone who tried to stop him from fulfilling his obsession, even if they were his former compatriots.
Butcher or demon, it doesn't matter.
He didn't care how he did what he wanted to do.
Just like the completely different hero views in My Hero Academia and One-Punch Man, Aizen admires Saitama, who seems to be simple-minded, more.
Saitama wants to become a hero, not because of the word "hero."
It's not that Saitama is interested in the act of being a hero, but rather that he simply wants to enjoy it, and he doesn't feel guilty about whether this act will cause any other damage or harm.
He also doesn't need anyone else to recognize him as a "hero."
For him, joining the association was more of a necessity driven by financial necessity, a way to improve his life.
If you like it and want it, then do it! Aizen can't say that My Hero Academia has a hero system, nor can he deny that Izuku Midoriya's noble character surpasses Saitama's.
However, Izuku Midoriya's obsession with the hero license and his desire to surpass All Might demonstrates his passion for being a "hero."
Their views are more complex.
For example, fame! Why does he idolize All Might? Because All Might himself is a pillar of support for many people, and the greatest idol among heroes.
High moral character is certainly commendable, but the notion that one cannot be a hero without a "hero's license" or that a hero must never kill truly defines the essence of "heroism."
The simplest definition of a hero is someone who steps forward in times of crisis, selflessly and without expecting anything in return. Aizen doesn't believe heroes must be selfless, but from the hero's perspective, it's a necessary condition! Therefore, even Aizen doesn't believe that the hero-slayer Stanton hunted "heroes" because he admired them.
His actions were correct, but he also agreed with Stein's assessment that most of the heroes in the early 20th century were "imposters."
This statement.
Aizen is an absolutely rational person.
Therefore, even though he knew he might not have enough time, he still didn't recklessly use his abilities to travel through China. Instead, he kept stealing carriages along the way to get to the capital, so much so that by the time he arrived, the capital had already fallen to the enemy.
However, he did not regret it; acting impulsively was the behavior of a reckless person.
He felt no remorse whatsoever for the greater sacrifices that might have been made during this period.
China is not just his China.
He wasn't some idiot who wanted to be a hero.
Since he had decided to hide his other abilities from the beginning, he wouldn't change his mind because of a momentary impulse.
"Emperor Guangxu should have already fled Beijing with Empress Dowager Cixi."
There aren't many Boxer Rebellion forces here now, it's too slow for me to do it alone."
Unable to use wide-range attacks to wipe out the enemy, Aizen thought for a moment and then ordered the system's subsystem to draw a target. "Ding! Random draw complete. The target characters are as follows. Please make a choice within one minute, otherwise the system will randomly select one of three again."
"First place, All Might, from my Hero Academia."
Aizen's expression suddenly turned somewhat strange.
What a coincidence!
I had just thought of this person when this person immediately popped up in my head.
However, Aizen had no intention of choosing All Might at all; their compatibility was absolutely terrible.
The characters produced by the sub-store don't even have any binding power. Currently, the two who have chosen to follow me are the Prince Who Repays His Kindness and the One Who Acknowledges Dong Zhang.
in addition,""
Even Aizen considered her unique abilities to be quite impressive.
In the My Hero universe, physical test scores without using Quirks reveal that the physical strength of humans in the My Hero universe is not much stronger than that of humans in the ordinary Earth world.
All Might, who inherited the power of eight people in eight separate ways, was invincible in his world, but that was only because the human bodies in that world were not very strong and generally could not withstand a single blow from him.
Hero Killer Stain was able to suppress Izuku Midoriya, who was only using 5% of his power, with his physical skills and swordsmanship. Even without considering Midoriya's own Ninth Body, 5% is less than half of the power of all his predecessors.
Considering their ability to store energy, their individual strength should be able to reach the limits of human capabilities.
This further proves that All Might's strength is not as exaggerated as people think.
As for punches that create whirlwinds and storms, that's nothing special.
6. It's strange; similar things can be done by someone like Dongzhang, just not on the same scale.
The destructive range of whirlwinds was similar; when Joe Higashi reached the level of a high-ranking official, he could do it with ease. This... American-style guy was really nothing special in Aizen's eyes.
He possesses top-tier strength, and even against the Uchiha clan, or Tobirama Senju, he would likely be utterly defeated. With his Sage Mode body and full-fledged superhuman strength, he's not really afraid of All Might. Add to that Water Release and Flying Thunder God Technique, and it would be a miracle if All Might didn't lose.
Aizen immediately...
They turned their attention to the next person.
"Second, Captain Krieg, from One Piece."
""
Headache. I stopped writing two chapters last night and had some late-night snack. I ordered a bowl of beef and vermicelli soup late at night, and I always ask people to put it spicy, but I forgot that my stomach wasn't feeling better yet.
I didn't feel anything while eating, but the pain started when I was almost finished, and I'm still feeling uncomfortable.
Please provide a unified answer to Aizen's character design in the comments section.
Some people say they don't like this part of the story, that the characters are misdeveloped, and so on.
First of all, there has never been any such thing as a "distorted persona".
Throughout the book, there is no explicit statement that Aizen is a cold and ruthless person; that is merely the opinion of some readers.
Please do not force your own subjective perceptions onto the protagonist.
The text mentions that in the original work, Aizen attacked Hinamori Momo but failed to kill her, and he didn't actually kill Halibel. It also mentions that after awakening his past life memories, he developed some special emotional attachments to the characters in the story, and he didn't have any intention of directly killing Ichimaru Gin. Furthermore, the deaths of his family members due to the Soul Society's system all indirectly prove that Aizen is not a heartless person.
These things shouldn't really be discussed here, because there are later plot developments regarding Aizen's inner thoughts, and these are just minor foreshadowing.
Aizen himself never believed that he was without emotions; he simply believed that he would not easily develop feelings for other people or things.
As mentioned in the opening of this book, Aizen's character is that he was a reincarnated person whose memories were sealed.
It simply reflects the same upbringing as Aizen in the original work, and raises the question of "what Aizen should be like."
It was his subconscious that led to the beginning of the story being 95% similar to Aizen in the original work.
