5-1 Goodbye...Rangiku

I made it in time.

Aizen... Gin...

Rangiku.

When you say you made it in time, did you mean in time to see me destroy Karakura Town and create the Ouken?

............

What is it? Do you find it difficult to speak to me?

Captain Aizen.

Please excuse my former colleague. I'll get her out of your sight immediately.

I really don't mind. I'm in no hurry.

You can talk with her right here, Gin.

But I insist.

It's fine, really.

............

Well, well.

He's always such an amusing child.

You seem pretty worn down. Why'd you come?

You don't know?

Because you're here.

Finally, I can ask you directly.

Tell me. Why did you choose to go to work for Aizen?

Answer me! Why on earth did you go and betray Izuru? You betrayed his trust in you!

Is that really what you want to know?

You're upset that I betrayed Izuru? Sounds to me like you're really talking about yourself.

............

That's a shame. You really should've stayed where you were.

Oh, Rangiku.

You're a pain.

Well, hello, Captain Aizen. I've returned.

So, you're back.

What happened to the woman?

I killed her.

Indeed. Her Spirit Energy has disappeared.

I'm surprised. Because you knew her so well, I got the feeling that you might show her mercy and let her live.

Me? Show mercy?

I don't have any of that.

I let you know that the very first time I met you.

I am a snake. My skin and blood are cold. I have no heart. I slither, looking for prey with the tip of my tongue.

I swallow everything whole.

That's the sort of creature I am.

Gin.

Gh...

There is only one way to avoid the power of your Kyoka Suigetsu, and that's to touch its blade, but it must be done before its powerful influence puts one into complete hypnosis.

It took me decades of gaining your trust, just to get that single fact out of you.

In all 13 Court Guard Squads, not a single person was aware of that.

But it seems all of them were quite confident they'd be able to kill you, Captain. Watching them made me very nervous.

The only one who can kill you, Captain Aizen, is me.

I knew that.

I brought you here with me knowing exactly what your objective was because I was interested in what technique you would use in trying to kill me.

But I'm disappointed in you, Gin. Did you honestly think you could kill me with something like this?

No, I didn't.

You see this? There's a tiny piece missing. Just now, I left a bit of my blade inside you, Captain.

As for my Bankai's power, when it extends and contracts, it turns to dust for just an instant.

Inside the blade, there is a powerful poison that dissolves and destroys cells rapidly.

Gin!

Kill'em, Kamishininoyari.

Gin! Damn you!

You'll die with a hole through your heart. Isn't that what you wanted?
