Bleach: After Retiring From Zero Division, Aizen Came To Study

Chapter 68: Quincy Annihilation



Shinigami, have invaded this place?

Many Quincy felt a range of emotions—anger, frustration, and resentment.

Soon, a deep voice echoed through the spirit space, reaching the ears of every Quincy present.

"It's really lively."

"The Shinigami have ceased war with you Quincy. You don't feel pity for us and went to discuss terms after surrendering. Yet, here you all hide. What do you want?"

Hearing these words, all the Quincy became visibly enraged. They turned their eyes to the young figure who had suddenly appeared.

A young man dressed in white stood before them. Though not in a black death tyrant outfit, the presence he exuded, combined with the Zanpakutō at his waist, left no doubt—he was a Shinigami.

"Shinigami…"

Hatred flared in the eyes of the Quincy.

Another Quincy spoke coldly, "You swung your butcher knife at us without reason. Now you halt the war and demand gratitude? Shinigami, you are truly despicable."

"How brave of you, Shinigami, to come here!"

Many Quincy expressed their hostility toward Arima upon seeing him.

Arima's expression remained calm. He continued the topic from before. "I said, wait—what do you want?"

He repeated his question, but no Quincy answered. Instead, what followed was the release of an arrow of spirit light.

Condensed arrows of spirit energy shot toward Arima at blinding speed.

Arima's figure flickered, skillfully dodging the spirit arrows. They slammed into the wall behind him, releasing loud crashes.

Stopping once again, Arima turned to face the many Quincy.

"I already know your choice."

"You refuse to accept peace with Shinigami. You've come here to secretly plot your revenge."

"It's understandable. I sympathize with you Quincy. I can see why you would resist. After all, you've faced near genocide, and the instinct to fight back is strong."

"But I am a Shinigami."

"So, you can only die."

Arima's words enraged the Quincy even further.

In an instant, they drew their weapons—bows, arrows, swords—ready to attack.

The spirits in the space began to vibrate as Quincy concentrated more spirit energy into their arrows.

Before Arima could react, countless spirit arrows were launched toward him.

With a firm grip on his Zanpakutō, Arima unsheathed the sword.

A brilliant blade burst forth from the sealed Zanpakutō, releasing a powerful slash.

Every spirit arrow that flew towards him was obliterated in an instant.

"Everyone, attack together!"

One Quincy shouted, coordinating the effort.

In a flash, Quincy figures appeared from all directions. Like Shinigami's Shunpo, the Quincy also wielded a unique footwork technique—Hirenkyaku.

This technique, called Hirenkyaku, was said to be more advanced than Shunpo. Instead of relying solely on Reiatsu for speed, it utilized reishi beneath the feet to form steps, allowing them to traverse through spirit spaces and even fly in worlds beyond their own.

However, even with their advanced techniques, Arima was too powerful.

Arima's Reiatsu condensed into immense sword pressure, effortlessly slicing through the onslaught of spirit arrows. His strikes were precise, forcing the Quincy to evade swiftly with their foot technique.

But even their agility couldn't save them.

Arima predicted their movements. Whenever they moved, his sword found its mark.

A Quincy, attempting to evade with his Hirenkyaku, was suddenly caught mid-motion as Arima's blade pierced through him.

Blood splattered into the air, and the Quincy was cut in half.

This sight silenced the rest of the Quincy.

Now furious, they activated their blood-activated equipment—both offensive and defensive versions.

"Blut Arterie!"

"Blut Vene!"

These techniques enhanced both their offensive strength and defense, allowing them to endure Arima's strikes longer.

Yet, even with this, Arima continued to press forward.

Every time a Quincy activated Blut Vene armor for defense, Arima would use Shunpo to strike at the most vulnerable moments, cutting through defenses with ease.

One Quincy, whose defense faltered, fell from the sky, wounded beyond repair.

In the span of mere moments, Arima systematically incapacitated the Quincies.

The scene was one of destruction—Quincies falling one by one, their efforts proving futile against the overwhelming power of a fully unleashed Shinigami.

Yet, among the defeated, a few figures stood apart—dressed differently in white robes, their appearance distinct from the others.
