“No, that one above the mist, as mentioned before. Those manifested rivers of time might be the past and future of other worlds.” Aizen’s mind raced, and a knowing glint appeared in his eyes. “In other words, this giant might really be a figure from that world.”
While Aizen was deep in thought, Rukia Kuchiki, under Whitebeard's guidance, successfully conjured several cards from the Mystic faction. Her mouth slightly agape, she exclaimed, "They actually managed to conjure them! That's incredible!"
After a brief moment of thought, Rukia Kuchiki selected her Zanpakuto card, Sode no Shirayuki, from the list. She then raised it above her head with both hands. The card floated silently to the ground in front of Su Han.
After putting the cards away, Su Han did not condense the plot stars, but instead focused his gaze on Aizen.
Aizen raised his head, met Su Han's gaze for a moment, and his eyes narrowed slightly. As a Shinigami, Aizen possessed extremely powerful soul energy, which allowed him to sense the essence beneath many things.
In the next instant, Aizen's body stiffened.
He felt a chill and an ominous sense of foreboding, as if he were standing on the edge of a cliff, with countless tentacles extending from the depths, wrapping around him, trying to drag him down to hell. Even someone as powerful as him felt suffocated, his body out of his control.
Aizen bit his tongue, feeling a stinging pain, and used it to forcefully look away. He appeared calm on the surface, but his breathing became much more rapid.
He felt that his back was soaked.
Earlier, in that instant when he made eye contact with Su Han, what his powerful soul perception sensed almost shattered his soul.
It wasn't an adjective, but a descriptive phrase. Even now, Aizen's spiritual power hadn't stabilized.
"It's terrifying... so terrifying that I don't know what to say." Aizen was deeply disturbed.
He silently raised his palm, conjuring his own cards. From them, he selected "Mirror Flower, Water Moon".
After a brief hesitation, Aizen took out two more Hado cards: Hado #63, Thunder Roar Cannon, and Hado #90, Black Coffin. He then tossed them toward Su Han.
Su Han accepted the three cards, and he understood Aizen's meaning.
"Mirror Flower, Water Moon" should correspond to the Zanpakuto Sode no Shirayuki Card given to Rukia Kuchiki. It's used to exchange for the condensation of the story's stars.
As for the other two Hadokyu cards, they were probably Aizen's apology gifts for his previous offensive act of trying to peek into Su Han's true nature.
Su Han did not comment on Aizen's actions. He extended his finger and gently tapped the air.
Ripples spread through the void, growing larger and larger until, with a deafening roar, a long, ever-flowing river of history emerged.
From the beginning, Rukia Kuchiki came to the human world to kill Hollows, and accidentally gave her spiritual power to Ichigo Kurosaki. Later, this was exposed, and she was wanted and pursued by the Soul Society.
Soul Society Rescue Arc, Hueco Mundo Arc, Hueco Mundo Arc, The Disappearance of Substitute Shinigami Arc, Thousand-Year Blood War Arc...
The long river of history converges, suddenly transforming into a dazzling star, adorning the endless mist.

Chapter 62 Whitebeard's Speculation! Fusion of Zanpakuto Power
A profound silence fell over the surroundings.
The white-bearded man stroked his crescent-shaped mustache and remained silent. He recalled the many scenes he had glimpsed in a fleeting moment earlier.
"It seems that in the world with these two new members... there are many powerful individuals."
Thoughts flashed through Whitebeard's mind. The destructive power displayed in many previous scenes was no less than his own... and in some cases even greater than his maximum destructive power.
"Could it be a world similar to Naruto?!"
Whitebeard frowned in thought. The Six Paths level masters who appeared later in the Naruto world possessed terrifying power capable of destroying stars and reshaping the moon. That was a realm that Whitebeard could not currently reach.
Rukia Kuchiki hesitated for a moment, then reached out towards the star. Her figure instantly disappeared into it.
"That's so interesting."
Aizen gazed at the star before him. His fingers traced the back of the chair as he pondered Rukia Kuchiki's true identity.
After all, he had previously guessed that the members of the other Shinigami world shrouded in mist were probably also from Soul Society.
The key issue is that if another person glimpses the future, learns about his specific abilities and plans, and then hides in reality to secretly sabotage his plans... even if he has a mirage to make amends, it would still be very troublesome.
After a brief silence, Aizen laughed, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"But doesn't this make it more interesting?"
Everything was under his control, and nothing changed. Such a life was boring!
Remove this misty space that he cannot see through, remove the mysterious man above the mist that he cannot understand... Who would Aizen fear?
Aizen adjusted his glasses and disappeared into the star.
Su Han watched this scene silently. After a moment's thought, he began to introspect on his own body.
Li Xianyu's evil god power at the Saint Lord level is still stored in his body.
“That guy named Li Xianyu is really weak. He’s not even in the same league as the Five Elders… However, the evil god power I absorbed from him is still enough for me to develop one of the two domineering auras, Armed and Insightful, to a level comparable to a general.”
Su Han fell into deep thought. Strengthening his Armament Haki would make him stronger in hand-to-hand combat. Strengthening his Observation Haki would sharpen his senses. However, after a moment's consideration, he ultimately chose Armament Haki.
While the Observation Haki of a Marine Admiral is strong, it is still not at its peak.
After all, Katakuri's brief glimpse into the future and Gol D. Roger's ability to hear the voices of all things represent the true pinnacle of Observation Haki. Even if Su Han has enhanced it now, it's merely a further expansion of its range. There's no qualitative change!
However, the enhancement of Armament Haki can lead to a physical increase, which might allow him to unleash the full power of OFA without any damage.
In comparison... at the current stage, strengthening Armament Haki is more cost-effective.
The misty space seemed to tremble almost imperceptibly.
Whitebeard subconsciously looked in Su Han's direction and noticed that beneath the mist enveloping Su Han's body, black matter was surging. But then, the black matter completely disappeared.
"What...is that?" Whitebeard's pupils suddenly contracted. "Or is it just my imagination?!"
