Five days later, in the evening.

seamless.

In the boundless darkness, there is no light, only a steady breathing sound that repeats itself continuously.

Inhale...exhale...inhale...exhale․ Suck…. call…

Every breath seems to set off a hurricane in the darkness, making the darkness filled with no other sounds except Duke's breathing.

Going over the darkness and walking into the source of breath, there is a handsome young man dressed in gorgeous feathers sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a simple sheathed long knife on his lap.

The young man put his hands on the scabbard naturally, and every breath made him more closely connected with his own knife.

Time goes by every minute and every second. In the seamlessness, you can't feel the passage of time, you can't feel the boundary of space, only darkness is eternity.

But this young man made the darkness his background board, sitting in the darkness calmly, breathing and meditating.

Not long after, rhythmic footsteps came from the darkness, and then a man with short brown hair and a cold and proud face walked out of the darkness and came in front of the young man.

"Duke, you've been sitting here for five days, are you going to continue?"

"Aizen, I said so."

Duke opened his eyes, and as he opened them, a cold light suddenly appeared in the darkness, piercing through the darkness and making Aizen narrow his eyes subconsciously.

This guy's technical attainments have reached such a level, just holding the sword in meditation, the light of the sword will escape when his eyes open and close, how strong is his attainment in sword skills?

"Don't approach me rashly, within a radius of 500 meters." 28 Duke lowered his eyelids, looked at the two pieces on his legs, and said lightly: "Be careful of being cut in half by me!"

"I walked in front of you, but nicely."

Aizen scoffed at Duke's statement, Duke lifted his eyelids, and Aizen's figure was reflected in his dull eyes.

"If I hadn't sensed your arrival in advance, do you think you would have come here safe and sound?"

"It's been five days, are you still not ready?"

"It still takes time!"

Duke raised his hand to caress the two pieces on his legs, "At this stage, before something happens, there will be omens!"

"When those fake Espadas came out, I had corresponding warning signs in my mind, so I had to be prepared."

"Well, whatever preparation you have to do, come and see my research!"

When Aizen said this, he looked at Duke with a blank expression, and couldn't help but said: I suddenly feel that I still like you who pretended to be crazy before!"

"Heh, I've been wearing the mask on my face for a long time. After I took it off, I haven't gotten used to it yet, but you guys feel it first."

Duke sneered, Aizen stared at Duke and said, "You mean you are the real you now?"

"Who knows?"

Duke's expression quickly became lively, and he smiled at Aizen who winked and said, "Who can tell if it's real or not?"

"It seems that your preparations have been perfected!"

Seeing that Duke's expression changed from before to vivid, Aizen couldn't help squinting his eyes. He was curious about the hole card that took Duke five days to prepare.

"Just getting ready."

Duke smiled. In fact, in the past five days, he had finished his preparations on the first day. As for the next few days, he just sat there to sort out his three skills that have been strengthened and his level has skyrocketed. .

"Just now!"

Aizen smiled, apparently not believing Duke's words.

This guy always likes to keep his hand, who knows if the last five days were his real prep time, or if it was even shorter and ready after killing those fake Espadas.

These Dukes will not tell him the truth, no one in the country likes to show their hole cards.

"Okay, come with me!"

Aizen made an inviting gesture towards Duke, "I have already researched how those Espadas came from."

"Well, then go and see your research results."

Duke followed behind Aizen, and opened his own system panel at the same time.

【Name: Duke

Sex: Male

Race: Shinigami

985

Body:985

:985

Speed: 985

Skills: Blade Master LV.max, Melee Master LV.max, Kidō Master LV.max

Current strengthening point: 12]

Duke, who was following behind Aizen, couldn't help letting out a breath of foul air when he saw his brand-new system panel.

After he completed the preparations for the hole card, he decisively used the system's ability to raise the level of his master technique to the maximum level in one go.

That is the current LV.max, which means the maximum level value that cannot be broken through at present.

Converted to the normal calculation value, it is LV.99.

As for the LV.100 above LV.99 [actually, it is just a barrier for the level of Phantom to cross to a new and higher level.

The normal ordering of skills is: Beginner, Master, Grandmaster, Specialization, Master, Grandmaster, and Above Grandmaster.

Among them, it is more difficult to upgrade from specialization to master, and it is even more difficult to upgrade from master to grandmaster than the previous level breakthrough!

And what is the name of the skill level above the master, Duke does not know.

He only knows the name of the next realm after breaking through to the next level.

Breaking through the level barrier, that is, LV.100 not only requires a large number of strengthening points, but also requires his own perception.

When he realizes it, that barrier will naturally dissolve, and then the strengthening point will show that it can be used, and he will be able to break through to the next shoulder.

After preparing his hole cards, Duke spent the past four days constantly sorting out the extra insights and experiences in his mind after the three techniques were raised to the maximum.

One day for knife skills, one day for close combat, one day for Kidō, and the last day is a preview in my mind.

Preview various scenes to strengthen your own perception.

But unfortunately, the time was too short, before he realized anything, Aizen came to disturb him.

Besides Kyoraku Shunsui and Aizen, no one else knew about his coming to Wujian, not even Unohana Retsu and Sui-Feng.

Infernal Affairs is safe for Aizen, and it is also safe for him.

It can allow him to safely pass through the precipitation period after level promotion.

When the level is raised rapidly, the perception and experience brought to him will be accumulated, and these levels can be transformed into his combat power.

At the same time, he not only strengthened the level, but also strengthened his own experience, body, mind, and speed.

As for why not strengthen more, of course it is to hold in hand in case of emergency.

While Duke, who was following Aizen, was thinking about his own affairs in his head, Aizen, who was in front of him, felt a chill spreading in his heart.

This coldness was not aimed at Duke, nor did it have anything to do with killing intent or hostility.

It was just because Duke was walking behind him, which made him feel like he was on his back.

Just because Aizen doesn't have the two emotions of fear and despair doesn't mean he doesn't have the perception of danger and everything that threatens his life.

At this moment, in his perception, Duke walking behind him is like a wild beast strolling in the courtyard, while he is an unarmed ordinary person.

Duke could kill him if he wanted to.

This feeling is so real, it makes him feel trembling and uneasy, as well as a little bit of excitement.

But soon, Duke restrained his thoughts, took a few steps forward, and walked side by side with him.

Keeping up with Aizen makes it easy for this guy to think he's going to stab him in the back, so adjust quickly.

He didn't want to fight with Aizen at this time, because if they really fought, he would kill Aizen if he didn't pay attention.

After going through a long period of darkness, Duke and Aizen came to the laboratory that Aizen built for himself in the Infernal Zone.

Among them, the most eye-catching are the four large jars, which contain the four Arrancars captured by him after sealing, Ulquiorra, Hurley Bell, Zommari, and Aronilo.

These four Arrancars, whose appearances were quite different from before, were quietly sleeping in the jar with their eyes closed at the moment, and from time to time, a bubble would come out of the jar.

"What did the research reveal?"

Duke sat casually on the table facing the four large pots, and Aizen didn't mind his behavior, and said directly: "As we all know, after the battle in Espada, there were only two survivors.

"One is Hurley Bell and the other is Grimmjow!"

"These four in front of us are actually imitations!"

"Imitation?" Duke touched his chin, stared at Hurley Bell in the jar, and glanced at the majestic source of power on the other side.

"you sure?"

"Not only the four in front of us, but also the seven Espadas you killed earlier are actually puppets that were created!"

"These puppets use the Hōgyoku embedded in their bodies as the core, and the Hōgyoku records everything about the original Espada, and uses the spirit particles to build their bodies with everything recorded.

"As for the fact that they still retain their original memories, it is because Hōgyoku not only records Espada's Reiatsu, blood, bones, and internal organs, but also records Espada's spirit seed traces."

"And everything about us will be recorded in the traces of spirit particles, as long as a person's traces of spirit particles can be collected, they can be imitated.

"However, the vitality is too weak and the existence time is too short. Once the power of Hōgyoku is too close, these fake Hōgyoku Espada will collapse into dust!"

When Aizen said this, he also looked at Duke, "Just like Nnoitra before, he only repaired his own damage, but because of too much power, he collapsed."

"In other words, these knives are pure consumables?"

Duke touched his chin and stared at Hurley Bell. It is said that Hurley Bell's empty hole is two inches below the navel.

I don't know if it's true or not.

"It's not a consumable, it's more like a test product that was launched for experimentation!"

"However, for me, these consumables can turn them into permanent combat power!"

When Aizen said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. .
