With Yammy's death and Ulquiorra's escape, the intense battle finally came to an end.
After absorbing Yammy's immense Reiatsu, Aaron vanished in a flash.
On his way to the Urahara Shop, Aaron experienced a peculiar sensation.
He could feel the "gourmet meal" stored in his system backpack growing restless, as if it was eager to be consumed.
The last time he experienced this feeling was when he achieved Shikai.
A quick glance at the system interface revealed that his Reiatsu level had unknowingly surpassed 500,000.
At this moment, he was certain—he was on the verge of breaking through and stepping into a much broader realm.
Not long after, Aaron arrived at the Urahara Shop. After checking on Ichigo and the others' injuries, he headed alone to the underground training ground beneath the shop.
The vast underground space, reinforced with barriers by Tessai Tsukabishi, provided ample room for training.
Nevertheless, to be extra cautious, Aaron deployed multiple layers of Inverted Mountain Crystal and Six-Sided Splitting Void to contain the potential aftershocks of his impending breakthrough.
He vividly recalled the sheer devastation caused when he first attained Shikai.
After making all necessary preparations, Aaron sat cross-legged on the ground, placing the "gourmet meal" on his lap.
Closing his eyes gently, he allowed his consciousness to enter his Zanpakutō's inner world.
"Roar…"
Within the endless void of his Zanpakutō's realm, a towering black figure radiated a gluttonous aura, its deafening roar reverberating throughout the space.
"My lord!"
As Aaron entered the inner world, a figure—Yu Yang—swiftly approached and addressed him.
Aaron smiled, nodded at the ravenous entity before him, and then stood still, preparing himself.
Dark clouds began to gather overhead in the Zanpakutō's space, lightning flashing amidst the swirling winds.
Majestic Reiatsu surged from all directions, coalescing like streams flowing into a vast ocean above.
As all the accumulated spiritual energy was drawn into the stormy sky, a massive black vortex gradually formed, spinning faster and faster until it caused the entire realm to tremble.
"Boom!"
"Boom! Rumble!"
Thunderous explosions echoed across the space as the forces within Aaron surged forth.
The power of the Shinigami, the Hollow, the Quincy, and even the energy of Hell itself, manifested as four distinct streams of light, spiraling upward toward the vortex in the sky.
At the same time, the gluttonous entity beside him let out a world-shaking roar before soaring into the vortex.
"Roar!"
Its cavernous maw, resembling a bottomless abyss, hungrily devoured the swirling energies above.
No one knew how much time had passed before the sky gradually returned to its original state.
Suspended in the air, the glutton let out a satisfied burp, followed by a joyous roar, before descending to Aaron's side.
Aaron slowly opened his eyes, his gaze steady as he observed the entity before him.
Then, he looked downward at the ground, and then upward at the sky above.
His eyes now carried the profundity of a rebirth from the collapse of a universe.
With a soft utterance, he activated his power—the black earth beneath his feet and the white sky above trembled once more.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Deafening rumblings resounded as his Zanpakutō's inner world underwent an extraordinary transformation.
From the once barren black land, lush trees and vibrant flowers began to bloom. The stark white sky gradually shifted into a serene blue.
As the environment changed drastically, Aaron's spiritual presence completely vanished.
At a glance, he now appeared to be an ordinary human, devoid of any Reiatsu.
However, a closer look would reveal that Aaron was like an unfathomable void—an invisible black hole capable of absorbing everything in existence.
"Let's begin."
Aaron nodded at Taotie, his gluttonous entity, before refocusing his mind.
With a single thought, he exited his Zanpakutō's inner world.
Having completed his preparations, it was now time to test his Bankai.
Before proceeding, he accessed his system panel to review his status.
Then, he drew his Zanpakutō, channeling his immense Reiatsu and the four distinct powers within him into the blade.
An overwhelming sensation of unity surged through him as his mind conjured the vivid image of his Zanpakutō's inner realm.
Within, Yu Yang continued playing alone, but suddenly, as if hearing a summons, she lifted her gaze toward the sky.
"My lord! Speak my name!"
The voice of Taotie roared like a thunderstorm in clear daylight, shaking the very foundations of the realm.
Aaron gripped his black Zanpakutō tightly and bellowed:
"Devour all! Bankai!"
"Boom!"
"Boom! Rumble!"
At that moment, both Aaron and his Zanpakutō transformed into a mass of pure chaos.
A terrifying gravitational force erupted from him, distorting the very fabric of space.
Two massive black holes, one large and one small, appeared—both radiating an insatiable pull, frantically devouring everything in their vicinity.
The underground training ground beneath the Urahara Shop could not withstand the force. It collapsed entirely, dissolving into a chaotic stream of spiritual energy that was rapidly absorbed into Aaron and Taotie.
Meanwhile, in the shop above, Urahara Kisuke and the others had just finished tending to Ichigo and Sado's injuries. Curiosity about Aaron's activities led them to gather and discuss his whereabouts.
Suddenly, a staggering force erupted from below, shaking the very ground of the Urahara Shop as if an earthquake had struck.
Within a ten-mile radius, spiritual particles were violently pulled toward the underground space by an unseen, terrifying force.
"No… It's the teacher!"
Urahara Kisuke immediately attempted to stand up, intending to investigate.
However, the moment he did, he felt his limbs go weak and collapsed back onto the floor.
"Bakudō #73: Inverted Mountain Crystal!"
In unison, Urahara Kisuke and Tessai Tsukabishi murmured the incantation.
A blue, inverted triangular barrier materialized around them, shielding everyone from the immense gravitational pull.
"Our Reiatsu—and even the surrounding Reishi—are being drained!" Shihouin Yoruichi said, her voice tense.
Ichigo and the others exchanged glances, struggling desperately to gather the remaining spiritual particles around them in an attempt to resist this unforeseen disaster.
