Bleach: No cheat codes, he joined Aizen's side.

Chapter 304, Section 302. Aizen, oh Aizen, don't blame me.
A red whirlwind rose from the earth, and pillars of fire connected to the sky above.

This is a pine torch of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

Not particularly powerful, but for Aizen at this moment, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni felt it was enough.

Watching Aizen being burned in the flames, Higashino Shuichi slowly walked towards Aizen's direction.

At the same time, spiritual particles quietly gathered under his control.

Aizen, having obtained the complete Hogyoku, is theoretically not going to truly die.

Because the Hogyoku has already fused with Aizen.

Unless Aizen himself has a death wish, the Hogyoku will do everything in its power to save him.

However, the way to save Aizen is a little bit special.

In the original storyline, Aizen could have used the infinite rebirth power brought by the fragment of the Soul King's fingernail fused into the Hogyoku to cheat the system.

Now that Aizen has already had the fragment intercepted by Shuichi Higashino, the only means he can rely on for the Hogyoku within him is evolution.

Is it because of the sound waves that his power was sealed?

Then isolate yourself from sound, so that no sound waves can affect you.

Did the intense heat of the flames cause him to nearly die?
Then evolve fire-resistant properties so that those flames can no longer pose any threat to their bodies!

On the surface, this seems to be an almost unsolvable ability.

But in reality, there is no such thing as an ability that is completely unsolvable.

The reason you feel that a certain ability is unsolvable is simply because you don't know how to solve it yet.

Unfortunately for Aizen, Higashino Shuichi happened to know one of the solutions.

Evolution can go on without limits, but the direction of evolution is limited.

If the Hogyoku within Aizen is influenced by external factors and leads him down the wrong evolutionary path, it means that Aizen will find it difficult to turn back in the future, or perhaps he will never be able to turn back at all.

In the original storyline, Aizen was nearly killed by Gin Ichimaru using his long-hidden Bankai ability, the God Slayer Spear, due to his carelessness.

This led to Aizen undergoing an incorrect evolution.

If things hadn't been rectified in time, Aizen might not have had that brilliant moment where he schemed against Yhwach.

And at this point in time.

Gin Ichimaru can't be relied on for the time being, and the special way he uses the God-Slaying Spear has already been used when dealing with Shuichi Higashino.

Higashino Shuichi had no idea what kind of grand gift the genius Ichimaru Gin had secretly prepared for Aizen in this timeline.

In any case, he has no choice but to take matters into his own hands.

"Promise me you'll be a perfect Quincy special agent, okay?"

Higashino Shuichi looked up at the flames above and thought to himself.

Then, as the flames were torn apart by Aizen in the middle, the domain unfolded.

"Praise to the Holy Land!"

The enormous cross rose once again over the land of Soul Society.

The magnificent spiritual energy outer wall simultaneously enveloped both Higashino Shuichi below and Aizen Sousuke above.

Then came the continuous barrage of holy arrows, and the incessant sound of explosions.

Holy Word Ability - E, Critical Hit.

From Bambietta, a member of the Sternritter whose personality is as fiery as his name.

Of course, the fact that Higashino Shuichi was able to fabricate it using his own Holy Script ability shows that Bambietta has not yet been endowed with the Holy Script ability.

Despite being overwhelmed by Higashino Shuichi's almost endless barrage of Holy Arrows, the disheveled Aizen didn't feel angry at all; instead, he felt unusually excited.

Because of the information gap, even Aizen himself did not realize that the way the Hogyoku saved him was by making his body evolve in the direction of solving the current threat.

He assumed that the Hogyoku was using its own power to help him resist the attacks from Higashino Shuichi, just like it had done before when clearing the Dangai.

However, in reality, the Hogyoku made the decision to allow Aizen to evolve only after determining that Aizen's life would be threatened if he did not evolve.

The threat from the Dangai was, in the eyes of the Hogyoku, far from being enough to threaten Aizen's life.

Therefore, Aizen not only had no intention of blaming Higashino Shuichi, but also wanted to give Higashino Shuichi a thumbs up.

Give me some more!

not enough!
Aizen could take on ten more!
He wanted to see just how far the Hogyoku could go!
Or rather, the Hogyoku has no limit!

"Is this Quincy helping us?"

Outside the Sanctuary of Praise, Soi Fon looked at Higashino Shuichi, who was inside wearing Kabuto Takuya's skin, and said with some surprise.

She thought that the Quincy had secretly slipped back to the human world after seeing Aizen "rip out her heart".

"Hehe. Don't overthink it. He's probably just upset because Aizen killed Nemuru right in front of him."

He's one of the most distinctive Quincy I've ever met."

At this moment, Yoruichi Shihouin, who had not yet fully recovered from the severe blow she suffered at Aizen's hands, immediately discerned Shuichi Higashino's motive with just a glance.

Compared to the Shinigami in Soul Society, Yoruichi Shihouin witnessed firsthand how Shuichi Higashino "tricked" Kisuke Urahara in the human world.

Therefore, she is the one most qualified to speak when analyzing the logic behind Higashino Shuichi's behavior at this time.

Soi Fon carefully recalled what the Quincy had said and done, and it seemed to make sense.

However, to be fair, Soi Fon discovered that this Quincy named Kabuto Takuya seemed to be exceptionally strong.

A single Sanctuary Blessing was enough to trap Aizen, who was in such a state.

Could it be that he secretly held back during their previous battle?
A thought suddenly popped into Soi Fon's mind, and then she shook her little head violently.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
She and this Quincy were not related, so why would he go easy on her?
Surely it couldn't be that he was being sympathetic to her?
Ignoring Soi Fon's already misguided thoughts, Kyoraku Shunsui secretly glanced at the old man after seeing Higashino Shuichi take the initiative to relieve their pressure.

Fortunately, the old man didn't seem to show much resistance to Higashino Shuichi's overstepping of authority.

I have a feeling that after that battle with Higashino Shuichi decades ago, which was unknown to outsiders, the old man seems to have become a lot more shrewd.

If this were the old man Kyoraku Shunsui remembered, upon seeing a Quincy dare to unleash a skill in front of him, he would definitely have attacked him with a single strike without hesitation!

Where else would they stand quietly outside, knife in hand, waiting for what happens inside?
However, in truth, Kyoraku Shunsui felt that Aizen's behavior might also be due to the fact that it was too bizarre.

Just a second ago, he was in a sorry state, with multiple injuries all over his body, when he was hit head-on by the old man's torch. But when the flames subsided, Aizen appeared in front of everyone completely unharmed.

An uninformed person witnessing this scene might mistakenly believe that the old man's attack, capable of instantly killing an ordinary Adjuchas-class Hollow, was actually some powerful healing technique. Even Higashino Shuichi, who possessed similarly bizarre regenerative abilities, couldn't achieve such a feat.

"Perhaps the old man also wants to see what kind of abilities Aizen possesses now?"

Kyoraku Shunsui glanced at the expressionless Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, feeling that he had already understood the old man's thoughts.

Then he looked at Aizen in the Sanctuary Praise.

He desperately hoped that this mysterious Quincy could help them suppress Aizen with a single move.

Yes, you don't need to kill them, just suppress them.

The rest can be left to the Grim Reapers.

Unfortunately, let alone suppressing him, Higashino Shuichi's attack, which used up all the power of his Quincy form, couldn't even damage Aizen.

In a short period of time, Aizen's body had already undergone three stages of evolution under the influence of the Hogyoku.

At first, Higashino Shuichi's Sacred Arrow was able to pierce Aizen's body.

However, as time went on, those Holy Arrows that flew during the Sanctuary Praises became more and more like toys in Aizen's hands.

Not only did it fail to harm Aizen, but Aizen forcibly took it away as a means of counterattack.

Hundreds upon hundreds of Holy Annihilation Arrows were reflected by Aizen onto the giant cross-shaped emblem surrounding them.

Then, accompanied by Aizen's low murmur,
"Destroy!"

These sacred arrows tore open one gash after another in the massive cross emblem surrounding them.

"Oh no, Lord Yoruichi, watch out!"

The moment Higashino Shuichi's Sanctuary Praise shattered, Soi Fon keenly sensed something was wrong and immediately unleashed her Shunko, summoning swarms of wind to protect herself and the heavily injured Yoruichi Shihouin.

As for the other captains of the Shinigami, they all used their own methods, either using the abilities of their Zanpakuto for defense or employing high-level instantaneous Kido techniques for defense.

Of course, there are also those like Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who simply sweep their Zanpakuto lightly across their own face.

However, under the indiscriminate attack of holy annihilation arrows that burst forth like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

Some ordinary Grim Reapers who hadn't had time to escape still perished.

For example, Hinamori Momo, the lieutenant of the 5th Division, was tried to protect by Hitsugaya Toshiro but failed, and her Holy Arrow pierced through her ice crystal.

Poor Hinamori Momo had only just recovered some consciousness from the effects of the thousand-year ice prison that Toshiro Hitsugaya had previously been in.

Before he could even ask his respected and admired captain, Aizen Sousuke, why he had done this,
If there are sufficient reasons, it's not impossible for Hinamori Momo to follow Aizen and do great things together!
He could only watch helplessly as the Holy Annihilation Arrow, projected by Aizen Sousuke, pierced his chest.

"Captain Aizen"

Hinamori Momo looked in Aizen's direction and opened her lips. She still wanted to ask her question, but her physical condition no longer allowed her to do so.

She knew it must be a coincidence; Captain Aizen must have done it by accident.
What Hinamori Momo didn't know was that, in the midst of that chaotic Sanctuary celebration, Aizen, for a fleeting moment, cast his gaze upon Hinamori Momo.

He had previously used Hinamori Momo as his stand-in, allowing her to be targeted by the other Shinigami, which might have caused them to misunderstand something.

But what if Hinamori Momo was also nearly killed by him in this battle?
Presumably, Hinamori Momo won't be misunderstood then.

Aizen has always disdained doing something like deliberately having someone else take the blame for him.

Yes, that's the reason.

Aizen's actions completely ignited the anger of a chuunibyou (delusional) teenager.

"peach!
"Aizen, you bastard!!!"

Toshiro Hitsugaya was furious!

On one hand, it was because he had failed to protect the injured Hinamori Momo; on the other hand, Hitsugaya Toshiro knew how much Hinamori Momo admired Aizen.

Therefore, he knew that Aizen's actions would be far more damaging to Hinamori Momo than this.

At the same time, he also wants to avenge Hinamori Momo!

A massive ice dragon soared into the sky, and the entire sky, which had been scorching hot just moments before, instantly turned into a biting cold wind.

"No, shouldn't the most important thing you do right now be to look back and see if Hinamori Momo can be saved?"

Having a childhood friend like you, I really don't know if it's Momo Hinamori's good fortune or her misfortune.

Despite Toshiro Hitsugaya's overwhelming offensive, Shuichi Higashino didn't worry much about what would happen next. Instead, he couldn't help but internally criticize Hitsugaya's choice.

The fundamental reason why Higashino Shuichi is so "refined" at this moment.

First, Higashino Shuichi saw Unohana Retsu, who had been practically coasting the whole game, finally appearing behind Hinamori Momo.

Secondly, there's the match between Hitsugaya Toshiro and Aizen Sousuke, who has already fused with the Hogyoku.
Higashino Shuichi felt that this question didn't even need to be thought about; any time traveler would know the answer.

So what if Aizen has indeed been outmaneuvered by Shuichi Higashino?

Higashino Shuichi symbolically drew a new Sacred Arrow on the spot, then watched as Hitsugaya Toshiro, who was charging towards Aizen in the sky, was kicked back to the ground by Aizen.

Even the ice dragon behind him was kicked to pieces by Aizen.

"young.
Anger can certainly unleash a torrent of rage, but when you're not the main character, you'll find that sometimes, even that outburst is utterly useless!

Higashino Shuichi fired his Sacred Annihilation Arrow at Aizen, while mentally making sarcastic remarks.

His sacred arrow of destruction was naturally of no use.

However, this was not Higashino Shuichi's purpose; he simply wanted to use this method to force the other Shinigami present not to make a move.

After all, it was already embarrassing enough to have a Quincy help them fight Aizen; if they were to cooperate with this Quincy on top of that, it would be even more shameful.

Let alone Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, even reformists like Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro wouldn't be able to bring themselves to do it.

As for what Higashino Shuichi really wanted to do, it certainly wasn't to continue opposing Aizen himself.

He has achieved his goal of causing Aizen's "erroneous" evolution, so the next step is definitely not to have Aizen fight against Shinigami like Kyoraku Shunsui, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and Ukitake Jushiro, who could actually turn Aizen's life around if they joined forces.

But
"I've been dragging this out for a long time, it's your turn to step in!"

"I said with a smile," said Higashino Shuichi.

At the same time, Aizen and Kyoraku Shunsui looked towards the horizon.

There, a large group of powerful figures appeared.

The leader of them was the one who had previously fought against Higashino Shuichi in the real world.

Saito is immortal!
