Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō novel Chapter 486

Chapter 486: Chapter 486: Jilliel

As soon as Masatsuki Aozaki finished speaking, Yhwach flashed forward like a phantom, instantly appearing before the young Shinigami.

He opened his palm, and dense Reishi rapidly gathered, condensing into an incredibly sharp long blade in the blink of an eye.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Yhwach swung the blade with tremendous force, sending a fierce slash straight at Masatsuki Aozaki!

Facing such a ferocious assault, Masatsuki didn’t retreat either.

His gaze remained steady, and the gleam of his sword flared as he met Yhwach’s strike head-on without fear!

Boom!!!

Two powerful forces collided, unleashing a deafening roar.

A terrifying storm of Reiatsu erupted, tearing through the clouds and sweeping across the sky!

In an instant, the entire Wandenreich felt the overwhelming surge of spiritual pressure.

Realizing that Masatsuki had made his move, nearly all the Shinigami and Arrancars grew excited.

"Captain-Commander (His Majesty the Emperor) is here. Victory is certain in this battle!"

Everyone’s hearts surged with confidence.

Lille Barro narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the battlefield.

He wanted to leave this to Haschwalth and rush to assist Yhwach himself, but he knew the time wasn’t right.

Just then, he sensed a strange fluctuation in energy and frowned.

In the distance, a figure slowly approached.

The man had short brown hair and dual-colored eyes, exuding a gentle air, with a gaze as warm as sunlight.

He wore a white haori, and a wooden plaque bearing the character "一" was tied to his right arm.

As Lille Barro saw the figure, he bent slightly and slung a massive sniper rifle-like Reishi weapon over his shoulder.

The man stopped about fifty meters away.

Aizen calmly gazed at the sniper in front of him and said in a composed tone,

"Lille Barro, member of the Schutzstaffel, Schrift X — The X-Axis, the power to pierce all things."

"Your ability lets you penetrate everything in the trajectory between your muzzle and your target."

"And that tightly shut left eye of yours—once open, it grants immunity to physical damage."

"I must admit, the combination of those two abilities is indeed terrifying. Unfortunately, they seem to be ineffective against me."

"My Captain-Commander is currently fighting Yhwach. It won’t be long before the Quincy King falls. In that case, as the Lieutenant, I’ll be the one to grant you the same fate."

Aizen’s tone was calm throughout.

"Heh, arrogant words for a Shinigami."

Lille Barro sneered, stepping forward and aiming his gun at Aizen.

"But I’m curious—where did you get that intel? Those two traitors alone couldn’t have given you such detailed information."

At that, Aizen adjusted his glasses and looked over.

"Naturally, it was my Captain-Commander who told me. You should feel honored that he sent me to kill you."

"?" Lille Barro frowned, doubts swirling in his mind.

Why had Masatsuki Aozaki mentioned him specifically?

Why?

He had never even seen Masatsuki before.

Candice and Bambietta, those two juniors, might know his name, but he had never revealed his Schrift ability to them.

So why did Masatsuki seem to know him so well?

Lille Barro’s gaze sharpened as he stared at Aizen, determined to get to the bottom of it.

But in response to his confusion, Aizen simply smiled slightly, offering no explanation.

"Hmph. Either way, today is the day you die."

Lille Barro’s eyes widened in shock as he stared at Aizen, a mix of fear and confusion gripping him.

Why would someone who looked like an ordinary Shinigami possess such overwhelming power and regeneration?

But Aizen didn’t give him time to think. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

He swung his blade with the ferocity of a wild beast and lunged straight at Lille Barro!

That sword—hadn’t it vanished?!

To his astonishment, Lille Barro saw that Aizen’s sword had reappeared, sharper and more lethal than before.

Caught off guard, Lille Barro hurriedly raised his rifle to block the incoming strike.

But the "The X-Axis" bullets were completely useless against Aizen Sōsuke’s strange body.

When the bullet struck him, it sank as if into a mire—there was no trace of damage, no sign of his body breaking apart like before.

Aizen sneered and pressed forward, slashing again and again.

Sensing danger, Lille Barro immediately used Hirenkyaku to put distance between them.

At the same time, he began to gather energy, preparing to activate Vollständig.

Suddenly, a chilling presence swept over him from behind, as if a blade had pierced through his back—his scalp tingled with dread.

What the hell is this guy?

No—I can’t afford to wait any longer!

In an instant, Lille Barro opened his left eye, and a towering pillar of Reiatsu burst from the ground!

It shot up into the sky, piercing the clouds, and at the top, the Quincy five-pointed star unfolded.

Within the beam of light, his form transformed drastically.

His head was completely concealed by a raised collar, his face marked with vertical yellow stripes. A massive halo floated above his head. His body was wrapped in a cocoon-like shell, and his arms were replaced by eight hollowed white wings stretching from his back.

"Vollständig:Jilliel!"
