Completely missing.

The boy who watched the battle between Aoki and Kyoraku thought that he might have fallen into a hallucination.It's just that I don't know if my real self is staying in the same place as Jingle at that time.

At that time, Jingle probably saw through the illusion, and the illusion naturally has flaws.

The silver-haired boy retracted the Zanpakutō to its normal length, with the tip of the knife facing outwards, his palm against the back of the knife, ready to strike.

flaw.

He squinted and looked at the scene that hadn't changed, except for the lack of a person, the flaw, where is it?

Withdrawing the blade and looking around is just a matter of an instant.

There was a piercing sound in front of him, and Ichimaru raised his hand and stabbed out the Zanpakutō.

The sound of the blades intersecting sounded, and the stagnant feeling of the iron hitting was transmitted from the blades to the palms.The scene was torn apart along the line where the blades intersected and rubbed sparks.Through the torn gap, Ichimaru Gin saw a few strands of brown hair and Aoki Aoki's green eyes.

The girl's eyes were dark, and Ichimaru knew she was serious without even meeting her gaze.

The gap that exposed the reality quickly closed, and the passive Ichimaru Gin waited for the girl's next attack. He said, "You also said that I was impatient, and you are obviously looking forward to it, Xiao Aoki."

Aoki Qingtong flicked away the translucent flame sticking to the tip of her hair: "Of course, after watching the game for a day, my blood is already boiling."

Her voice sounded to Ichimaru Gin as if it was coming from all directions.

Aoki saw the young man with out-of-focus eyes with a relaxed expression, and he was not passive at all: "It seems that Xiao Aoki has been training well these days."

"I can see it." The girl looked down at the transparent flame at the tip of the knife, "It's hard to be lazy in the sixth division."

"Also, I really want to know how far I have come."

"It's a great honor to be used as a reference standard by Xiao Aoki." The boy who said this raised his hand on the back of the knife, and stretched the Reiatsu network in a line in front of his body, and then stuck the tip of the knife to the center. Point, pull out another spiritual network, the sharp gun retracts, and quickly weaves a net around Ichimaru Gin.

Twelve of breaking the way, subdue the fire.

Linearize the Reiatsu, capture and attack the enemy.

Aoki didn't move.

Before Kido is completed, Ichimaru Gin's attention is focused on the back that is not protected by Kido, and there is no point in sneak attacking.It's better to wait for him to finish and attack frontally.

Gin Ichimaru's use of ghosts is indeed a good way to resist hallucinations, but only if the giver of the hallucinations can only attack from one place.

"too naive."

Knowing everything, Aoki didn't use Zanpakuto to cover it up.Flames shot out directly from the palm of her hand, and a long matchstick floated in mid-air.Aoki flicked the whip, and the matchlock really wrapped around Ichimaru's body in an arc like a whip.

The explosion exploded around the boy.

Ichimaru Gin's face changed slightly, he jumped out of the encirclement, and his usual smile returned to his face: "It's not fair, Xiao Aoki knows everything about my ability, but I don't know anything about Xiao Aoki."

Aoki completely gave up on Zanpakuto, and directly attacked with flames, waving a blue flame whip: "You must know that I have become stronger."

She got stronger.The use of flames is more handy.She controls the transparent flame of the trait, which makes the opponent semi-illusioned-creating the illusion of completely disorienting the opponent is too much burden on herself, and the result will be as weak as she was against Jingle.

The incompleteness of the illusion makes the attack be noticed by the opponent within a certain distance of approaching the opponent.Aoki knew that shortening this distance was the direction of his training in the future.At this moment, she can only compete with Ichimaru Gin in speed.This is obviously impossible, and the advantage of the sharp gun lies in its speed.

Or, dragged into a protracted battle, killing Ichimaru Gin's attention, too much concentration can easily make people feel tired.This path requires strong spiritual pressure support.

Unlike the battle with Byakuya Kuchiki, Gin Ichimaru has no reservations at this moment, and the Reiatsu released is no less than the level of the captain.Although Aoki also no longer concealed her spiritual pressure, but her strength has not reached that level after all.

It's going to be a long battle.

Was it her Reiatsu that ran out first, or Ichimaru Gin's concentration collapsed first——

"Let's see who wins."

one year later.

The venue for the selection competition for the sixth team's chief executive.

Silent.

On the stage, the tall and straight cool young man stands outstandingly.Opposite him, the vice-captain of the Sixth Division was already unable to support himself, and fell to the ground.

That was a landslide victory.

After joining the team for one year, he devoted himself to training the unknown Kuchiki Byakuya, and in this way he came into people's attention.

Under the stage, Aoki Qingtong was the first to applaud.

Pop, pop, pop.

The slow and clear applause was provocative, and then a flood of applause flooded the entire stadium.

At Aizen's request, Aoki challenged the tenth seat of the Sixth Division and defeated it.

A year ago, the battle between Aoki and Ichimaru ended, and both of them were in a state of embarrassment.At this moment, Aizen appeared, smiling unpredictably.

Seeing that smile, Aoki's heart suddenly felt cold, if Aizen saw the whole process, the secrets of her flame and Zanpakuto would be revealed.

28 The Zanpakuto was given to her to hide from the gods of death. She shouldn't have unleashed it in front of Aizen, let alone use flames.

——Be careful in front of Tōsen and Aizen-sama.Once exposed, 28 and I will be unlucky.

——Xiao Aoki, you have to remember that Aizen Monomono Yusuke is more extreme and cruel than the scientists who are active in Jinglingting.

The words Ichimaru Gin had said to her echoed in her mind, and Aoki didn't know which words made her feel worse.

But Aizen didn't say anything, just smiled.

In the end, it was Ichimaru who spoke and brought the atmosphere back to normal.

For some reason, this time, Aoki felt panicked by Aizen's expression.After that day, she trained like crazy.Watanabe, who was brought by her to practice with her, asked why, and she replied: "If it is not like this, I feel empty and hopeless."

This is what it's like to be caught, to be passive, to be afraid.

Aoki couldn't tell what he was afraid of, whether he was afraid that Aizen would kill him for experiments as specimens, or that Ichimaru would be unlucky.

She just clearly realizes the importance of strength, as long as she can't surpass Aizen one day, she can't feel at ease.To surpass Aizen is just a dream come true.So she can only train.

During the day and night training, Aoki didn't know what kind of state Ichimaru was in. She realized that she was easy to let go of her vigilance when she was around that boy. will appear.

She didn't dare to see Ichimaru for a whole year, and she never obeyed Aizen's orders.

One year, Jingling Court ushered in another batch of students, and the graduates of Aoki's class were allowed to participate in the selection competition for the chief officer.

The final result is like this. Tsuchimikado Akira, who defeated the tenth seat of the sixth division, was promoted to the No.13 seat; Watanabe Takashi, the captain with blue eyes, was promoted to the tenth seat of the first division, and Kuchiki Byakuya jumped to the sixth division. Three seats.

The trustworthy Mr. Mushroom invited two old classmates to dinner on the day the letter of appointment was issued. During the dinner, he said with a smile that Tsuchimikado has accumulated a lot of money, so they don't always have to wait too long.

Not long after this meal, Kuchiki Byakuya posted a post for them—a coming-of-age ceremony.

For a moment, Aoki understood why the boy had worked so hard in the past year.In order to give myself a birthday gift, for that honor, and to live up to Kuchiki's surname.
