Bleach: The Invincible Slacker from Rukongai

He was now stronger than ever before, his reiatsu constantly surging upward and still continuing to grow even more powerful. With the blessing of this overwhelming reiatsu, Uehara Shiroha's combat effectiveness had increased dramatically.

Besides the four fundamental Shinigami arts of Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Kido, and Hoho, he also possessed other top-level abilities. With the help of his transcendent status, his Stand ability, Universal Barrier, Infinite Dangai, and other techniques had been greatly enhanced and amplified.

With such overwhelming combat power, it would be no problem for him to crush ordinary transcendent beings. Even pseudo-Soul King-level warriors could find themselves in serious trouble, not to mention the current weakened state of Aizen.

In his enhanced perception, Hollow Aizen appeared just like an ant compared to his newfound might.

As for the Final Getsuga Tensho, both the difficulty of learning it and the cost of using it were concerns that had been addressed. First of all, with the blessing of the Mind Stone and his enhanced analytical abilities, there was no power in this world that he couldn't understand and control.

In fact, even an Arrancar like Grimmjow who could imitate reiatsu could create a "discount version" of Mugetsu, not to mention Uehara Shiroha who could see through and perfectly imitate the essence of any technique.

Through his perfected Observation Haki and the power of the Mind Stone, he had learned the Final Getsuga Tensho in mere minutes. Therefore, at this moment, his Shinigami powers had been enhanced by several dimensions and become incredibly potent.

With Mugetsu's assistance, Uehara Shiroha's capabilities were no less impressive than the finest among transcendent beings. And just as he had stated before, in this space, he was invincible, immortal, and possessed endless energy reserves.

He could even control time and space itself, not to mention eliminating even the slightest side effects from his techniques. Therefore, in the Infinite Dangai World, Uehara Shiroha could use the Final Getsuga Tensho without any restrictions whatsoever.

Even though its power might be somewhat weaker than Ichigo's original version, it was still more than sufficient to defeat Aizen decisively. Now he was genuinely almost like a god in terms of power and authority.

Only beings like Soul King Yhwach in his final form, the Prime Soul King, and certain mysterious Lords of Hell could hope to come into contact with his current level.

"I have never been so desperately thirsty for power as I am right now!" Aizen muttered to himself as he gazed at Uehara Shiroha, who appeared godlike while carrying six spiritual blades floating behind his back.

Uehara Shiroha's ability, strength, and transcendent realm represented everything he had always dreamed of achieving. His opponent was also the dream adversary he had always sought to face.

Once again he felt that familiar sensation of despair, weakness, and helplessness. However, Aizen would not allow himself to be defeated by this feeling of powerlessness. He craved power and desperately desired to surpass the current Uehara Shiroha.

At this crucial moment, his originally unfathomable reiatsu began to fluctuate violently and unpredictably. A purple crack appeared across his chest, and white substance flowed out and solidified, forming a narrow opening around the flesh and blood.

Within the crack, the Hogyoku was suspended quietly, releasing an intense blue-purple light. In the deepest part of the purple radiance, a tiny bit of inextinguishable yellow mist was faintly lighting up and beginning to spread throughout his being.

Aizen's reiatsu rose rapidly, heading toward a dramatically higher level of power. The Hogyoku had responded to his desperate call, awakened once again, and the evolution process had begun anew.

His soul reorganized itself and became stronger than before. And this time the evolution was faster, more efficient, more powerful, and more perfect than any previous transformation. It was truly marvelous!

If this continued, he would definitely be able to defeat Uehara Shiroha and reclaim his superiority.

"Aizen, your evolution seems a bit slow. Do you need me to put some additional pressure on you?" Uehara Shiroha clearly sensed the dramatic changes occurring within Aizen's body and spirit.

But he remained completely calm and unworried. Because everything was proceeding under his control, including Aizen's evolution itself.

In the first stage of Hogyoku fusion, Aizen would be too weak to provide any meaningful challenge. Aizen, who had reached the fourth stage of Hogyoku evolution almost instantly, said with renewed confidence: "Sorry for keeping you waiting! Under your overwhelming pressure, I have reclaimed the Hogyoku and returned to my true power."

"And you shouldn't have given me this opportunity to recover. Thank you, Uehara Shiroha, and goodbye!"

At this moment, he could clearly sense Uehara Shiroha's reiatsu, which was like an vast ocean—unfathomable and containing the power to destroy everything within its deceptive calmness.

With his newfound transcendent power, his abilities, including perception, reaction speed, and defensive capabilities, had all received qualitative improvements. But none of that mattered anymore to his victory.

He had regained his full power and reactivated the Hogyoku's support. This time, he would not waver in his resolve, and the Hogyoku would never abandon him again.

Aizen waved his right hand, and his body transformed into a light-speed form, disappearing from sight in an instant. With the Hogyoku's complete support, there was absolutely no way he could lose this confrontation.

The advantage was his—time to attack!

After completing his evolution, Aizen was stronger than he had ever been before, and his transformed state had become faster and far more deadly than his previous iterations.

The next moment, Aizen appeared directly behind Uehara Shiroha, his arm having transformed into a razor-sharp blade, and he slashed toward Uehara Shiroha's head with lethal intent.

This blow was extremely sudden and potentially fatal. Moreover, Aizen's cutting technique had become more powerful, more concentrated, and faster than before, like a dragon's claw that could slice through absolutely anything.

When Aizen suddenly employed his light-speed movement form and unleashed his terrifying slashing attack, Uehara Shiroha showed absolutely no reaction whatsoever. There was still a calm smile on his face, and he simply stood there without any defensive expression or movement.

Of course it was completely impossible for him to be unable to react to such a straightforward attack. Therefore, it was equally impossible for him not to notice such an obvious assault.

Even though Aizen's current movement speed was now comparable to instantaneous spatial transportation, it still wasn't enough to surprise a true transcendent.
