Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1096 Where is Aizen Sosuke’s sword?
"What is the ability of a water-type Zanpakuto?"

Kurosaki Ichigo continued to ask.

"You can use the random reflections of fog and water to confuse the enemy's senses, causing them to enter a fantasy world of mutual destruction."

Yamamoto Shigekuni said calmly.

"I have seen it before, it is true."

"Combined with his captain-level spiritual pressure strength, it's a pretty good Zanpakutō."

When Kurosaki Ichigo heard what Yamamoto Shigekuni said, he realized where the problem lay.

"His Zanpakutō ability is probably not the water-type Zanpakutō you mentioned, but an ability similar to illusion."

Ichigo Kurosaki expressed his opinion.

"Illusion?"

Yamamoto Shigekuni didn't think that any illusion could deceive him.

"The time of death in Central Room 46 can verify what I said. It is impossible that no one has met with the people in Central Room 46 during this period, but they did not notice anything wrong."

Ichigo Kurosaki did not argue with Shigekuni Yamamoto, he just gave some evidence.

The time of death of the people in the Central Forty-six Room could not be faked. Aizen Sosuke found it troublesome and also had the idea in mind, so he killed them all, and then continued to search for the technology to extract the foreign matter in Urahara Kisuke's soul recorded in the Great Spirit Book Corridor.

This period of death is the best proof.

"Even if what you said is true, it doesn't prove that Aizen Sosuke is behind all this."

Yamamoto Shigekuni was silent for a while and found the loophole.

"You said that Aizen Sosuke is dead, so can I go and see his body?"

Ichigo Kurosaki then presented the second piece of evidence. Although he had not seen or verified it yet, he was very sure that there was something wrong with the corpse!

The corpse was transformed from Aizen Sosuke's Zanpakutō, Kyoka Suigetsu, but no one knows when he got his Zanpakutō back.

Mirror Flowers and Water Moons seem easy to understand, but if you look closely, you will find many unknown details.

There is also the question of whether flowers in the mirror and moons in the water can create something out of nothing.

"Creating something out of nothing" means that when Aizen activates his hypnotic ability, he needs a medium to serve as a stand.

In the early part of the story, Aizen used "faked death" to implement his conspiracy, hypnotizing everyone and using his Zanpakuto as his own "corpse" to divert everyone's attention.

In this plot, it is obvious that Aizen used a medium, which is his own Zanpakutō. What is hung on the sacred wall is not Aizen's body, but a Zanpakutō disguised as a body.

Sister Hua conducted a comprehensive inspection of the "corpse", but could not find any flaws for a while. After Aizen discovered Rukia's whereabouts in the real world, the first thing he did was to kill the Forty-Six Chambers, and then covered the entire Central Underground Council Hall with Mirror Flowers and Water Moon, creating the illusion that the Central Forty-Six Chambers were still alive, and Aizen, Gin, and Tosen kept one of them in the Underground Council Hall at all times.

Aizen did not explain whether a medium was used to create this illusion. However, we can simply speculate that Aizen wanted to create a state where the Forty-Six Chambers were still alive and in a meeting. In addition, the scope covered is wide and the number of characters is large. It would be too far-fetched to say that it was accomplished out of thin air. Aizen must have used the corpses of the Forty-Six Chambers as a medium to activate the Kyoka Shuigetsu.

Also, the reason why Aizen and the other two had to leave one person in the underground council hall was because the person who stayed behind had to issue false orders on behalf of the Forty-Six Chambers. Mirror flowers and water moons can only create illusions, and the essence of things will not change.

Therefore, issuing commands requires real people.

After Aizen's conspiracy was exposed, Captain Komamura rushed to the scene, but he was hypnotized by Kagami Suigetsu and was killed instantly by Aizen's Kidō.

In the comics, this scene is relatively brief, but we can still see some clues.

First, Komamura descended from the sky, ready to activate his Bankai to capture the bandits. At this moment, in Komamura's perspective, Aizen was standing next to Tosen, but when the next scene switched to, Aizen had already appeared in front of Komamura like a ghost.

Note that the Aizen who appeared in front of Komamura did not have a sword on his waist, while the Aizen next to Tosen disappeared like a phantom. Combined with the fact that Aizen's way of attacking Komamura was through the Kidō technique.

The conclusion is that Aizen used his Zanpakutō as a medium to create a substitute (the Aizen next to Tosen) to attract Komamura's attention, and the real Aizen took the opportunity to approach Komamura. Since his Zanpakutō had become a substitute, Aizen could only choose Kidō as a means of attack.

There is another manifestation of "stand-in".

110 years ago, Hirako was still the captain of the th Division and Aizen was still the vice-captain. Hirako always felt that Aizen was a dangerous person, so he arranged for him to be his vice-captain in order to monitor Aizen's movements.

But Aizen would not allow himself to be manipulated. He found another god of death, disguised himself as himself, and successfully got rid of Hirako's surveillance.

Here, Aizen obviously used a medium, that is, "another god of death" to act as himself. As mentioned before, mirror flowers and water moons can only create an illusion that is infinitely close to the "real (Aizen)", but in fact the substance used as a substitute itself has not changed. In other words, there is an upper limit to complete hypnosis.

Therefore, Aizen did not use Zanpakuto as a medium, because no matter how realistic the illusion was, a sword was still a sword, and over time, it would inevitably reveal its flaws.

So Aizen arranged "a living person", and the person who replaced Aizen (the stand-in) had already memorized Aizen's usual behavior patterns, so he was able to successfully deceive Hirako.

However, there are still disadvantages. If the person being deceived knows Aizen very well, then no matter how much the stand's words and actions resemble Aizen, it is not Aizen himself after all, and will be discovered sooner or later.

There is another important point. Mirror Flowers and Water Moons can do more than just create illusions. They can also make up for the deficiencies of illusions and make the most of the target's existing cognition to complete the authenticity of hypnosis.

For example, Aizen had never seen Renji's Twin Kings Jabimaru form, but when fighting Youha, the image of the Twin Kings Jabimaru Renji appeared in Youha's eyes.

Combining the analysis of the above scenarios, we can summarize and deduce the detailed explanation of Kyoka Suigetsu's abilities: ① Kyoka Suigetsu's first activation requires a "ritual", in which Aizen holds the blade high, with the tip of the blade pointing downward, to hypnotize the target.

②Mirror flowers and water moons can indeed create something out of nothing, without the need for a medium, directly creating an illusion. Or, no matter how tiny the substance is, it can become a medium.

③In certain special moments, media is necessary, otherwise it is easy to reveal flaws.

④ The illusion created by the mirror flower and water moon has a repair function and can use the target's cognition to complement the falsity of the illusion.

⑤ Mirror flowers and water moons can create a "range illusion". Within a specified range, everything you see is an illusion.
