Chapter Seventy-Three: Dreams
The world is pure white.
The white sky, the white earth, and the white figure in front of you.
It's like the end that has faded, the colors have become tired of the world, and have disappeared. Everything in front of him has no color, even the original conceptual cognition has been blurred, and nothing no longer exists.
Hatred, love, sympathy, nothingness, everything has dissipated in this infinite whiteness. However, it felt as if there was something left, as if there was something unwilling to struggle around, as if there was something hazy wandering around. It's just that this feeling is just not real, not real.
However, it is so empathetic.
Is this the world that the king once promised? Or is it your own dream? Or was it just the hazy vision you saw before your experience?
“……”
Hasward looked at everything in front of him and was silent.
Ever since he had the power of Euhabach, Hasward has lost the right to dream, but has been constantly using the power of Euhabach, constantly, constantly, reading the future that is beneficial to Euhabach. Then cut off all the dead branches and leaves.
It is precisely because of their pruning that theoretically Aizen Yusuke will not reach the so-called fearless realm, and the world where everyone has turned into indigo nourishment will not come. It is also because of their pruning that Aizen Sosuke will not die and will not have problems in the process. In order to achieve that predetermined future, the destroyers kept reading and acting. For the growth of Ichigo Kurosaki, he continues to exert influence in the world around him.
From beginning to end, everything in this world should have been under the control of Youharbach. In the eyes that see through the past and the future.
Youhabach is invincible because he can kill those enemies from the past and the future.
And the bloody battle thousands of years ago was also because Youhabach did not believe in the fate he saw, he believed in his comrades-in-arms, his own bonds, and his own personal guards were able to break the illusion of the fate he saw, and then began to attack the Lingting.
Even in the end, he wanted to be a real leader, one-on-one with Yamamoto Motoyanagi Shigekoku. There is no fate, there is no future, as long as you die, it is real death. At that time, Youhabach was a truly charismatic leader, who would cry over the death of his subordinates, be angry at the departure of his subordinates, and fight for his own dignity and fate.
At that time, he was a fighter who was unwilling to accept fate, hoping to use his own strength to break this world.
As a result, however, Youhabach failed.
The failure was even more embarrassing than expected.
All the members of the pro-guard team died in battle, and there was no way to even inflict much damage on the Grim Reaper.
The interior of the Lingling Court was full of mountains composed of the corpses of the Exterminators, and the flames of the Lingzi wandered uncontrollably around, and the pale blue flames were like phosphorus fires, burning everything around them, igniting all the ambitions, conscience, and dignity of Youhabach.
Fate is such an absolute thing. Even if Habach, who was a friend at the time, suddenly launched a surprise attack on the Lingling Court, the final result was so tragic. Because that's fate. No matter how he resisted or how he acted, it was in prophecy. Not believing that his fate was so cruel, Yuhabach began to attack the Ryō Court, only to be attacked by the Grim Reaper hidden in his corpse, and finally died a miserable death at the hands of Yamamoto.
Youharbach was not reconciled. Of course he was not reconciled. What he wants is a death that fits his identity, what he wants to see is the final result, and he wants to fight against his miserable fate and future.
But the final answer is that he can't fight it, and it disappeared in the thousand-year-old bloody battle.
And in this way, he found his chance to survive in the infinite unwillingness.
He began a millennial resurgence. Constantly select the best of the best, choose the best extinction master bloodline for cultivation, constantly use your omniscient and omnipotent ability to screen the world around you, and constantly use your own power to send it out, and then recycle it after death.
Youhabach, who was not very affectionate in the first place, finally erased his own human emotions in the midst of ambition and pain. He began to become the true King of the Exterminators. A monster of that soul in the truest sense of the word. Constantly absorbing the power of other exterminators, constantly sage those mixed-blood exterminators to collect the abilities and information they need, and those pure-blooded exterminators will also be constantly absorbed.
That is the only thing that has been the dream of Youhabach for thousands of years.
Kill the Spirit King and return the world to chaos. Since the fate of this world cannot be disobeyed, let everyone enjoy the same fate. No more sorrow and pain, despair and melancholy, all negative emotions, all despair no longer come.
He will kill the so-called world-devouring void, will suppress the hell that has boiled, will turn the whole world into a chaotic pebble, everyone will not have to face death and calamity, everyone will eventually become a member of the world he sees, a slave of this world, just like him. This is the conclusion that Youharbach finally reduced everything he had in the midst of infinite pain and infinite sorrow.
And the end result is what Hasward saw, such a pure white world.
However, Hasward also knows that the world is also false.
Because there was a man standing there.
"Good morning. Maybe it's a little weird to say good morning in a world like this, but anyway, good morning to show my kindness. Hasward Jun. ”
“…… Indigo dyeing, so-right. ”
Ability to convey words in the future, to convey one's own language and information to the present.
Hasward lowered his eyes, not wanting to see the white robe-wearing, smiling gently.
It wasn't the first time he'd seen the strange Grim Reaper in front of him. Ever since Aizen had been sure that he had read the message of the future a few days earlier, Hasward had realized that he had seen this man countless times in his abilities.
Yes, he can regulate what world he exists in. Youharbach couldn't see the existence of Aizen Yusuke at all, and Hasward, in all the future prophesied, finally ended up in this ending. In the midst of a pure white world, I finally saw the figure of this man. He didn't even understand why Aizen Sosuke had such unimaginable power.
Theoretically, it is impossible for the world to be eroded.
This is the world of the future, the end of all possibilities. But, at the end of all possibilities, is it actually this man?
After a few days of silence, Hasward looked at the seemingly friendly man in front of him, still maintaining his precious silence, not wanting to discuss this grotesque landscape, this unspeakable future.
But it's not something he can't hear if he can't hear it. Because just like in the past few days, Hasward also knew very well that soon, the man in front of him was going to have a long speech. And sure enough, looking at Hasward's lowered eyes, Aizen Yusuke sighed and pushed his eyes. Then he took a slow deep breath and looked at Hasward with a smile.
"So, let's get back to what we've been talking about, Lord Hasward. The future of this world has been anchored by me, and you know that very well. ”
"Youharbach's so-called future observation is indeed a great ability, but there is no way for him to influence me."
"As for the reason, I'm sure you're as smart as you are, you must know it very well, right?"
“……”
Hasward stood in the pure white space, not saying a word.
Neither thought nor acted, just looked at the faded space in front of him, and his face was still flat.
However, Aizen Yusuke seemed to have heard some answer, and under Hasward's flat gaze, he clapped his hands very happily and said the answer with a smile.
"Yes, it's a mirror. Remember the conditions under which my abilities were released? The point of my influence on others is that I have to see the moment when I first understand. Youhabach, on the other hand, has observed the moment of the future, and has observed the moment of my beginning countless times. ”
He thought that he was the eternal future and that there was no way to affect him by observing the future in the past, so he felt that he had won the game and didn't need to care about such small things. However, he did not know. My ability to interfere is really just to see the moment I first solve, and that's enough. Even in his abilities, even in his dreams, I can hypnotize him. ”
"Therefore, Youhabach could not have been my opponent from the beginning, and the same was true of the Exterminator. Your future is sealed the moment I come. ”
"It's a bit too much to say that it's a life clinging to a timeline, but the moment I'm sure I'm not doing what I planned, I just need to make the world like this, and that can be said to be the way I close the timeline. That's why I'm able to communicate with you like I am now. ”
"Because you can't see any other future. Aside from my victorious future, once I find out that my plans are blocked, I will directly destroy the world. I know very well that the world will not be able to stop me. So once there is a future that prevents me, then it is inevitable that you will do good things. So that's what the future looks like. What do you think? Is it a bit of fun to tell the mystery after a few days? ”
“……”
Looking at Aizen in front of him, who was simply telling a conclusion as if he was telling a joke, Hasward closed his eyes.
