But it wasn't over yet!
Suddenly, countless strange, Small Ten-Tails split off from the Ten-Tails' body, surging like a tidal wave towards Sōsuke Aizen, who was sent flying!
Sōsuke Aizen, expressionless, swung his sword, instantly slaying one of the Ten-Tails' clones.
But he was quickly targeted by other Ten-Tails clones!
Although their power wasn't very strong against Sōsuke Aizen, they were annoying.
"Hadō #63: Raikōhō!"
Boom!!
A golden lightning pillar fiercely charged into the army of Ten-Tails clones, rampaging through them!
Instantly taking out a large number of Ten-Tails clones.
The area in front of Sōsuke Aizen was immediately cleared.
But soon, the endlessly splitting clones of the Ten-Tails rushed forward again, filling Sōsuke Aizen's vision as if obscuring the sky.
"Hadō No. 88: Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō!"
A massive beam of light shot out from Sōsuke Aizen's palm!
The air was scorched by the heat of this beam, and a scorching aura rushed forth!
The Ten-Tails clones pierced by the beam instantly vaporized!
Sōsuke Aizen's vision in front of him also suddenly became clear.
But at this moment, with the Ten-Tails clones no longer obscuring his view, Sōsuke Aizen surprisingly found that the Ten-Tails was already close at hand!
It opened a flower bud, and a Tailed Beast Bomb carrying destructive power roared out!
Sōsuke Aizen's eyes flickered slightly.
But he didn't take it to heart.
He had seen this type of Tailed Beast Bomb attack countless times before.
But almost every time, he easily neutralized it.
To him, this kind of Tailed Beast Bomb was no different from a Cero used by a Hollow to sweep away ants.
Just a few meters away from the Tailed Beast Bomb, Sōsuke Aizen swung his Zanpakuto downwards, striking the Tailed Beast Bomb!
With a hum!
The Tailed Beast Bomb instantly deformed under Sōsuke Aizen's strike!
But to Sōsuke Aizen's surprise, the Tailed Beast Bomb was not split apart by a single sword strike?!
Had its power increased to such an extent after the recent evolution?
As soon as this thought arose in Sōsuke Aizen's mind, the Tailed Beast Bomb's power suddenly erupted!
With a boom, it exploded on Sōsuke Aizen's body!
Sōsuke Aizen's eyes slightly widened, and then he was swallowed by endless flames!
A massive mushroom cloud suddenly rose!
"This... succeeded?"
Senju Hashirama stared at the huge mushroom cloud, somewhat disbelieving.
Having just escaped from the Land of Whirlpools, he unexpectedly encountered such a pleasant surprise!
If the Ten-Tails could truly deal with Sōsuke Aizen, then they wouldn't have to rely on the Land of Whirlpools' aid.
But at this moment, a terrifying aura dispersed the dense smoke!
A figure completely enveloped in milky white spiritual pressure appeared in everyone's sight.
"That is..."
Senju Hashirama paused slightly.
Senju Tobirama instantly became serious: "Sōsuke Aizen...?"
He knew that Sōsuke Aizen couldn't be dealt with so easily by the Ten-Tails.
Even if the Ten-Tails had evolved, Senju Tobirama still didn't think it could defeat Sōsuke Aizen.
This Tailed Beast Bomb not only failed to defeat Sōsuke Aizen, but it seemed to have made him even stronger.
"This appearance..."
Uchiha Madara's expression was serious.
Had Sōsuke Aizen evolved again?
He was the only one on the battlefield who could see that Sōsuke Aizen was capable of evolving.
But the more he knew, the more a deep-seated fear Uchiha Madara felt when facing Sōsuke Aizen.
A person who can constantly evolve during battle... Uchiha Madara's heart sank.
He didn't even know if Sōsuke Aizen's evolution had an end point.
If he could keep evolving... Uchiha Madara didn't know how powerful Sōsuke Aizen would become!
Perhaps... even the Infinite Tsukuyomi might have no effect on Sōsuke Aizen by then.
They must completely eradicate Sōsuke Aizen before he evolves to a point they cannot handle!
Just as he was about to go to Uchiha Fugaku's side, the space near them suddenly warped.
A golden, ancient giant gate quietly appeared.
When Uzumaki Mito saw this, her eyes widened instantly.
"Land of Whirlpools?"
The golden, ancient giant gate was almost a standard feature of the Land of Whirlpools.
The moment it appeared, she understood that this was the Land of Whirlpools' Space-Time Ninjutsu.
But... her eyes were filled with doubt.
Had Hashirama and the others... succeeded?
Had the Land of Whirlpools sent reinforcements?
Senju Hashirama and the others were equally surprised.
Because it was their first time seeing it, they were somewhat unclear about the meaning of this golden, ancient giant gate.
But Senju Tobirama sensed a fluctuation in spatial aura.
He frowned and said, "Space-Time Ninjutsu?"
The instant his words fell, the golden, ancient giant gate was pushed open with a bang!
A familiar figure immediately came into view!
Senju Tobirama's pupils suddenly constricted, and he exclaimed, "Zaraki Kenpachi?!"
What's going on?
How did Zaraki Kenpachi follow them?
And using Space-Time Ninjutsu?
Zaraki Kenpachi actually possessed Space-Time Ninjutsu?
For a moment, too many questions flashed through Senju Tobirama's mind, but no one could answer them... Sōsuke Aizen glanced at Zaraki Kenpachi.
He hadn't expected that this Third Great Ninja War would have a 'colleague' intruding.
But it had no impact on him; he only needed to complete Lord Soul King's mission.
Zaraki Kenpachi surveyed his surroundings, grinning, and said, "This place is really lively!"
He stared at the Ten-Tails and Sōsuke Aizen, his eyes becoming extremely excited, and he exclaimed, "There are so many people worth cutting!"
"This place is simply a paradise for battle!"
Zaraki Kenpachi became emotional.
But soon, he shifted his gaze to Uchiha Madara and said, "However, the previous battle isn't over yet..."
He hoisted Nozarashi onto his shoulder, his eyes fixed on Uchiha Madara, and declared, "Let's continue our slaughter!"
As his words fell, Zaraki Kenpachi suddenly appeared in front of Uchiha Madara and kicked him.
