Given his vigilance, how could he possibly reveal the true name of the move?
The moment you hear the names of moves like "Lion's Song" and "Great Shock," anyone who has watched One Piece will likely recognize them as Zoro's techniques.
How can you choose a name that better reflects your personality?
By the way, the original author, 98, is also known as a poet, so a beautiful or metaphorical name would be more suitable.
The "great shock" is simply a matter of overwhelming force.
Hmm, what's a good way to describe it?
The wrath of demons? The arrival of Satan?
No, no, no, this just seems like childish and melodramatic, not beautiful at all. Especially since Satan and demons just don't seem like the right words to describe something truly shocking.
Or...Asura!
Aizen suddenly realized that Zoro's swordsmanship was the same as the Asura Path.
So what suffix should a name have to sound pretentious, rather than childish?
Wait, why does it have to be a suffix?
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Aizen's mind, and he smiled and replied, "True Indra, Illusionary Ashura, those are the names of these two techniques."
Although most Shinigami reside in the Soul Society for a long time, over the years, some myths and legends from the mortal world will inevitably circulate to the Soul Society.
Death gods like the Great Dog, who were once human before falling into the animal realm, awakened a Myō-ō (a deity with a distinct mythological aura) because they had been influenced by mythology.
"The true Indra, the illusory Asura?"
Repeating it twice, Retsu Unohana said with bright eyes, "To lock onto a weakness and unleash a thunderous strike, this is indeed the ultimate Iaijutsu. The second move is unremarkable in terms of technique, but it inflicts terrifying, demonic mental pressure on the opponent. It's a truly fitting name."
Sister, you're exaggerating.
Aizen subtly twitched the corner of his mouth.
He simply associated Asura with Indra, and then added a contrasting prefix based on the different definitions of the two moves. Are you serious about a name that you thought about for less than ten seconds from beginning to end?
Moreover, he always felt that there was a hint of bloodlust in the eyes of the first Kenpachi when he looked at him.
Oh my god, could I really be being targeted?
"The fusion of power in your swordsmanship is indeed quite good, but such techniques all require a period of building up momentum. Continue to hone your swordsmanship; only when your swordsmanship level is stronger will the flaws become less noticeable. Shunsui lost to you so easily because it was a sparring match. In a life-or-death struggle, given the difference in your strength, Shunsui would at most suffer only minor injuries, and might even have found an opportunity to counterattack you." Having expressed his appreciation, the old man Yamamoto actually took the initiative to give Aizen a warning.
In his eyes, Aizen was already a super swordsmanship genius.
This talent was what Yamamoto valued more than the talent of Kido (Kido Technique). If Kido didn't involve forbidden techniques or the Reverse Kido mastered by the Zero Division, there was a limit to how strong one could become. Unless one created their own Kido, no matter how strong one became, they would ultimately only reach the level of the creator, or even just approach it.
However, the path of swordsmanship is unknown and vast. As long as one walks one's own path, it is impossible to know how far one can go or whether one can surpass the swordsmanship of predecessors.
In terms of skill, one possesses the pinnacle of Kido (the way of the devil), while the other's Kendo (the way of the sword) has an unfathomable limit; in terms of numbers, there will never be a shortage of Kido geniuses, while in Kendo, very few can possibly reach his level. There is absolutely no doubt which one Yamamoto values more.
Kyoraku Shunsui's swordsmanship is actually quite strong; his dual-wielding style is arguably the best in Soul Society. However, the fundamental reason for this is that there are only two people in the entire Soul Society who are dual-wielding.
He may eventually perfect his path and reach that level, but that's only a possibility.
In the Captain-Commander's eyes, Aizen had already embarked on that path.
Therefore, the Captain-Commander didn't want Aizen to go down the wrong path. He would rather Aizen never learn the D-Unlock than slacken his training in swordsmanship.
"It's rare for a Shinigami to ascend to the captaincy without mastering D-kai, but there are also Shinigami who can rival or even surpass other captains without using D-kai. They might be the great demon masters of each generation, or the second division captain who has developed special hand-to-hand combat techniques and stealth footwork, and... the original Kenpachi!"
Finally, Yamamoto hesitated for a moment before speaking.
After glancing at Retsu Unohana and finding that her expression hadn't changed much, Mr. Yamamoto felt relieved.
He didn't want to talk about that taboo, so he only gave a brief mention without going into details.
"Thank you for your guidance, Captain-Commander." Aizen smiled and humbly accepted the advice.
With a slight nod, Captain-Commander Yamamoto surveyed the Shinigami with varying expressions, and announced with an air of authority, "Effective immediately, Aizen Kadokawa, the Vice-Captain of the Fifth Division, officially assumes the position of Captain of the Fifth Division! You may choose your own Vice-Captain!"
This is a treatment that the two Grim Reapers who were previously confirmed to become captains did not receive.
Not receiving an immediate announcement, Mayuri Kurotsuchi curled his lip: "Tch, just a brute with strength but no substance."
Standing beside him, Tosen Kaname felt a surge of murderous intent. If it weren't for the inappropriate setting, he would have killed this arrogant bastard on the spot.
"Aizen, it seems the teacher thinks highly of you." Ukitake Jushiro said, very happy for Aizen.
is it?
Aizen's eyes flickered slightly.
I'm sorry, but for my future, I might disappoint you.
Chapter 27 The Final Crescent Moon Slash 2/6, with an extra chapter coming next week.
After Aizen's assessment was over, the captains found the subsequent assessments utterly uninteresting.
The third division's somewhat violent and aggressive vice-captain, Senetsu Iba, can only be considered a competent vice-captain. In terms of performance, he is even inferior to Aoi Oike. However, unlike that unlucky kid, he was not defeated in the actual combat test before he could even use his Shikai.
But no matter how boring it is, you have to keep watching, because the selection of captains is a very important matter for the Gotei 13.
Finally, Sen-Tetsu Akaba also temporarily took over as captain.
"Aww~~ Finally, it's almost the last one." Kyoraku Shunsui, standing to the side, yawned and said lazily.
Because his sword, Zanpakuto, was damaged by Aizen, Kyoraku Shunsui's position as examiner was taken over by Shiba Isshin.
When it was Soi Fon's turn, this little fan of Yoruichi Shihouin stepped forward. She was still a bit dazed, but the shock she had felt from the people who had impressed her earlier had somewhat calmed her down.
"Let's get started, Lieutenant Soi Fon. Don't be so bitter and resentful at such a young age. It's better to face the situation at hand."
The usually unreliable Shiba Isshin offered a few words of advice, then couldn't help but mutter, "Why are all the people I'm testing women, and they're either middle-aged women or immature young girls?"
Soi Fon looked completely bewildered: "???"
Shooting Range Sen-Tetsu: "!!!"
Everyone: "..."
Do you think everyone is deaf?!
Look how much that "middle-aged woman" wants to kill you!
Soi Fon, with veins bulging on her forehead, gritted her teeth and said, "Captain Shiba, is there something you're unhappy with about me?"
"No! Impossible! Who said that?"
Shiba shook his head repeatedly, completely oblivious to his captaincy, showing no semblance of any captain's demeanor.
The sight of this made the captain's brow twitch; if it weren't for the current manpower shortage, he would have personally cleaned up the mess.
However, this distraction diverted much of Soi Fon's attention, and her eyes regained the sharp and capable look of the Stealth Mobile, though her gaze toward Isshin Shiba was still quite unfriendly.
"Phew, I'll be serious from now on."
"forgive me."
"Captain Shiba, please adopt the correct attitude!"
"Well, let's start with the Second Division's specialty, the Instant Step test."
Watching the two undergoing the assessment, Aizen, who was waiting for news from the other side, idly checked their data.
Soi Bee Hippo Aya
Strength: B
Talent: A
Talent: S+
Abilities: Zanpakuto Suzumiya C, Kido Advanced A, Kendo Intermediate B, Shunpo Top A, Hakkaku Mastery A, Hidden Weapon C, Windmill D, Takiko D, Anti-Oni Musou C, Clone Step B
She truly deserves to be the woman who will one day succeed as the captain of the Second Division and seize control of the Hidden Mobile Suit Gundam from the Shihouin family, earning their complete respect.
Soi Fon, a petite and seemingly simple girl, is remarkably skilled in various techniques, although aside from common skills like throwing weapons, her unique skills are not at a high level. But how old is Soi Fon? She's only a year or two older than Byakuya Kuchiki, the expressionless man known as "Big White."
While that handsome guy is still a rebellious teenager receiving higher education in his family, Soi Fon's strength has already secured her position as a vice-captain.
Even disregarding the issue of not being able to solve the problem, in the initial state alone, this girl is probably no weaker than Tosen and Nemuro.
Aizen gave this assessment in his mind.
However, this little girl is still too immature.
The fact that she is ranked C-class means that she has not yet made up for the time deficiency of "Horse Pattern Flower". In addition, techniques such as anti-demon killing, hidden weapons, and clone footwork are far from being as powerful as they are a hundred years later in Aizen's eyes.
Soi Fon is merely a subordinate family of the Shihouin family, a lower-ranking noble. No matter how carefree and unconventional Yoruichi is, she would never teach Soi Fon the Shihouin family's secret footwork. This has nothing to do with Yoruichi's wishes, but is mainly due to the difference in their social classes.
If Yoruichi dares to teach, the Shihouin family will definitely not be able to get away with it, but if Yoruichi teaches Kuchiki Byakuya, does that mean the Shihouin family would dare to take action against the young master of the four great noble families?
Aizen could guess all of this with his eyes closed.
Even so, Soi Fon in the future still truly surpassed Yoruichi Shihouin in terms of speed, forcing Yoruichi into a very difficult situation when they fought Shunpo one-on-one. If Yoruichi hadn't later regained her face by using the Anti-Demon Slayer technique and Shunpo, and hadn't persuaded Soi Fon to switch sides with her words, this former "Shun Goddess" would have lost even more face.
In that era, Soi Fon was undoubtedly the strongest in Shunpo.
At that time, her clone footwork, which represented the limit of her speed evolution, was at least an A+ level ability in Aizen's eyes.
Aizen was also more interested in the father of the other protagonist.
Shiba Isshin
Strength: AS+
Talent: S+
Talent: S+
Abilities: Zanpakuto Satsuki S, Kido Advanced A, Kendo Advanced A, Shunpo Mastery B, Hakuda Advanced B, Oni Dango B, Shiba Barrier Technique A, Spirit Chains A, Jaw Cutting B, Last Getsuga Tenshou SS
Aizen's pupils contracted, and a strange thought suddenly arose in his mind.
Hmm...should I kill this guy sooner rather than later?
Fortunately, he dismissed that unambitious thought in just a second. As a leader of the Blue Army, how could he preemptively eliminate his opponent out of fear?
but……
MMP!
This control panel is toxic!
"Not only are all of their abilities below B-rank, but their Zanpakuto, Satsuki, is also S-rank, and it's the first SS-rank ability I've ever seen." Aizen mentally complained to the system.
"Isn't this something that was expected? Besides, you're Aizen, this doesn't fit your character," the system calmly reminded you.
“I know, so is there a problem? I can’t talk about anything related to my past life normally, at most I can only talk to myself in my heart. Now there’s something like a junkyard that can passively accept my words without leaking them out, so why shouldn’t I be a little free?”
Aizen's confident reply made a certain system want to curse him.
Unfortunately, it found itself unable to refute the argument.
However, these daily treats were rare, and Aizen immediately took Shiba Isshin seriously.
The final Crescent Moon Strike!
This is the starting point of Blue's ultimate evolution into the Chair Spirit.
It's one thing for its level to be higher than a semi-finished Hogyoku, but for its burst state to reach S+ is a bit excessive.
I and the Captain-Commander are only S-rank, yet Shiba Isshin has surpassed the limits of a Shinigami with all his might!
Even though Aizen overestimated the "Final Getsuga Tenshou," he couldn't help but be alarmed. Although he believed that Kurosaki Ichigo's state, which could overwhelm the Aizen, was at least SS-rank, Kurosaki Ichigo was a hybrid of three races, and his Zangetsu was not just a simple Zanpakuto.
After taking a deep look at this seemingly carefree man, Aizen felt that he needed to prepare more contingency plans for his future schemes against him. Otherwise, he was afraid that the limited plans based on the original storyline would exceed his expectations.
Just as Soi Fon's assessment was halfway through, the White Path Sect finally attracted the attention of everyone present once again.
boom!
Two more powerful spiritual pressures erupted one after the other.
Wow!
Crackling!
The astonishing commotion of wind and thunder intertwined caused changes in the weather of the Spirit Court.
To ease the pressure, the bonus for flowers next week will be adjusted to 1000, with everything else remaining unchanged.
