"Three of the twelve Karola leaders have already appeared. Are you the new Grand Commander?"
Alan Folker's calm gaze fell upon Armor, asking with a condescending air.
"What, are you scared?" Armor sneered dismissively, responding with contempt.
Upon hearing this, a cold smile appeared on Alan Folker's face, and his spiritual pressure instantly erupted. The invisible pressure felt like thousands of times the normal gravity, crushing Armor in an instant.
Even Hulk, who was attacking from above in mid-air, plummeted to the ground the moment the spiritual pressure formed.
Under the six-level spiritual pressure, the powerful gravitational field almost suffocated Hulk and Armor. No matter how strong their power, they couldn't stand under this spiritual pressure.
Armor gritted his teeth and roared, "This is the spiritual pressure the Blood Queen spoke of!"
It was the first time he felt the terrifying aspect of spiritual pressure. No wonder the Blood Queen was so afraid of Grim Reaper Aizen; it turns out that with just this ability, he could completely overpower him.
His gaze shifted from Hulk to Alan Folker.
At this moment, his heart was already eager to escape.
Hulk let out an angry roar, then struggled on the ground, repeatedly trying to suppress the spiritual pressure, but he was mercilessly crushed, unable to stand up at all.
However, Alan Folker was surprised. Although the six-level spiritual pressure was formidable, it seemed to allow Hulk to move, unlike Armor on the side, whose entire body was pressed to the ground.
Armor propped himself up with both hands on the ground, letting out a low groan, thinking to himself, "I can't drag this out any longer; the previous battle has already consumed too much."
"This Grim Reaper Aizen is indeed very strong. I must inform the other Grand Commanders about this." Armor gritted his teeth, his expression one of extreme pain.
Alan Folker slowly turned around, his expression calm and indifferent, saying, "You dare to resist the power of spiritual pressure!"
Just as he finished speaking, Armor suddenly froze, a thought flashing through his mind.
He let out a painful roar, his pupils gradually widening as if he had seen something terrifying.
Alan Folker, looking down from above at Armor, said in a low voice, "Under Kyoka Suigetsu, you don't even have a chance to resist."
"However, it seems you once had a very terrifying memory. What scene did you see?"
Grim Reaper Aizen could use Kyoka Suigetsu without the enemy even realizing it. The power of its Shikai alone instantly overwhelmed Armor.
Armor's five senses changed, and at that moment, he seemed to see a past memory or a terrifying enemy that filled him with fear, almost to the point of mental collapse.
Alan Folker transformed into an afterimage, appearing directly in front of Armor. He swung his Zanpakuto, and a blade Shadow cut across his front.
The cold light vanished, and blood splattered.
Armor was suddenly pulled back to reality from his consciousness, but what awaited him was agonizing pain.
With a pained expression, he clutched his neck, letting out a low groan, and collapsed to the ground. Blood gradually spread from beneath him, soaking his body.
"It seems your ability is far inferior to Hulk's." Alan Folker walked step by step towards Armor's corpse, squatting down to examine the wound.
He did not leave, because high-level Karola life forms possess the ability to revive.
Alan Folker didn't know if the Karola in front of him possessed the same power, but to completely erase the opponent, he had to leave him without a trace.
"You will be the beginning of my cleansing of the entire Karola Clan!"
He finished speaking, his gaze shifting to Hulk on the side, who was pounding the ground under the spiritual pressure, repeatedly forcing his power to intensify.
Indeed, spiritual pressure is the strongest power. In fact, Grim Reaper Aizen's strongest ability isn't Kyoka Suigetsu, but his own power. However, because Alan Folker is playing a role, with the system's enhancement, the level of spiritual pressure will be slightly higher than the spiritual pressure in the God of Death World.
Under the effect of Kyoka Suigetsu, Hulk had been continuously resisting. He glared at Alan Folker, his eyes bloodshot and filled with fury.
Alan Folker knew that if Hulk continued in his transformed state, he would inevitably lose his sanity completely due to sensory errors. At that point, only Hulk would exist, and Banner would be no more.
"You are not my target, and besides, I have no aversion to you."
Alan Folker removed the effect of Kyoka Suigetsu. The power of Shikai was indeed very useful, but it was still not the true power of Kyoka Suigetsu. However, it was sufficient to deal with the enemy in front of him.
Hulk's breathing gradually calmed down. Due to the immense power he had exerted, he gasped for breath and then reverted to his human form, falling unconscious amidst the ruins.
Just then.
Armor's body began to change. The dried blood vanished, and the wound on his neck slowly healed, restoring him to his previous state.
His eyes were tightly shut, but his breathing had recovered. He had been feigning death due to Alan Folker's presence.
Alan Folker's lips curled into a sneer as he glanced at Armor. The release of his aura had naturally caught his attention.
"Since you've revived again, then let's have a fair fight."
Armor frowned and climbed up from the ground, but under the spiritual pressure, he could only kneel on one knee, slightly raising his head to look at Alan Folker, and growled, "This time, you've gotten smarter."
The Blood Queen had escaped from Alan Folker's grasp. After that, he thought he had deceived the other party's sight, but he didn't expect that he knew of the Karola's talent for revival.
And he had not left, waiting for himself to revive—this was something Armor had never expected.
"You shouldn't have a third chance, should you?" Alan Folker's figure transformed into an afterimage, instantly disappearing from sight.
Armor was startled, exclaiming, "Such speed!"
The next second.
A cold flash of light struck his back. A blood-red mark severed Armor's right arm.
"What?" Alan Folker looked at the severed right arm and the gushing blood, a hint of surprise on his face.
The Karola's power became weaker after revival. Could it be... He pondered for a few seconds, his gaze fixed on Armor, a faint smile appearing, and then he transformed into an afterimage again.
Alan Folker showed no mercy. Under the ethereal afterimage, Armor's head fell to the ground, and then his body reverted to its original Karola form.
"Vulnerable!"
Alan Folker picked up a piece of torn cloth from the ground and wiped the blood from his Zanpakuto.
After that, the Zanpakuto vanished from his hand.
After tidying everything up, he grabbed Banner, leaped onto the highest point of the building, glanced down at Tony Stark, exchanged a look with him, and then disappeared into the distant darkness.
Tony Stark looked at the disappearing figure, his expression solemn, and frowned, "Who is this guy? Was it him who killed the Karola before?"
Currently, this point is very certain. Apart from the person under this mask, no one else has been consistently dealing with the Karola.
