Chapter 273
Third Division.
The entire barracks were completely silent.
If it were Zanpakuto rebellion, the fighting wouldn't have ended so quickly... They had clearly been harmed by something else.
"Captain Amagai!"
The figure kneeling on one knee was Funakiri to Haruto that afternoon.
"How about it?"
"It's all resolved."
Strangely, his Zanpakuto at his waist did not forcibly materialize... He could control it precisely when there were few targets, but when the scope of its effect expanded to the entire Seireitei, even Kōga Kuchiki himself could not precisely control the state of his Bankai.
Simply put, it means materializing everything, regardless of whether it's friend or foe.
"Very good."
The Zanpakuto at Shusuke Amagai's waist also did not materialize.
But.
Even stranger than that were the odd objects wrapped around their scabbards; they looked very similar to something Haruto had just dealt with.
Bakkōtō.
The "solution" that Funakiri can be seen from the constantly writhing mouth below the single eye of the monster-shaped Bakkōtō...
It's highly likely that it was eaten.
"Let's go to the First Division."
Shusuke Amagai's gaze turned toward the very center of Seireitei.
"Are you sure everything's okay?"
Funakiri was still somewhat uneasy.
Even though he had followed Shusuke Amagai in Hueco Mundo for a hundred years and had witnessed countless Menos Grande being cut off and burned by him, he still subconsciously felt fear when facing the imposing Captain-Commander Yamamoto.
Are you questioning me?
"I wouldn't dare!"
Funakiri immediately knelt down and said.
Fortunately, he didn't need to face Captain-Commander Yamamoto. If the opponent was only a vice-captain... he could easily handle it.
"It's time..."
"We've gone to Shigekuni Yamamoto to seek justice."
Volume 1: Chapter 163, Massacre
"Holy Chant - Sanctuary Praise!"
"Holy Chant - Sanctuary Praise!"
Ten enormous crosses rose from the ground.
The shimmering light of cyan and deep blue intertwined and overlapped, completely covering half of the Kuchiki Clan's courtyard.
"Call out!"
Countless Heilig Pfeil rained down upon each other like a storm.
Haruto and Yugram.
The straight-line distance between them is less than two meters.
"Clang!"
Heilig Pfeil versus Heilig Pfeil.
The scattered Reishi were quickly seized and absorbed by each other's Sanctuary Praises, and transformed back into arrows of light that shot towards each other.
"Boom!"
The one or two fish that managed to slip through the net were merely struck by bursts of azure flames on the two of them.
"Your Blut gear is pretty good."
Errenzhuan is a good form of culture.
--The two walked in perfect unison, as if they had planned it in advance.
"Same to you."
"But that won't hurt me."
Sanctuary Praise.
A powerful incantation used by the Quincy for both offense and defense.
Without considering the Schrift, it is almost the strongest ability of the Quincy.
When needed, each standing Quincy Cross can be transformed into a fully-powered Sankt Bogen.
The two continued to exchange a barrage of arrows, but neither was certain that losing a single Quincy Cross would directly lead to the collapse of the balance of power.
"Who can argue with that?"
At this time.
"Buzz!"
Haruto suddenly raised his left hand high.
The deep and vibrant black and red light condensed in Haruto's hand into the shape of an "X"-shaped longbow.
"!!"
Yugram said that he would only use Quincy.
Haruto's second Zanpakuto...
Even with the added power of Fullbring, who can say it didn't originate from the Quincy?
"'Heilig Pfeil'!"
Arrows?
No, no, no.
The "thing" mounted on the longbow looked like pure and violent energy.
The body; some say it's Cero... If someone lucky enough to have seen it, they might even believe it's the Gran Rey Cero.
"Gojūbaku!"
Yugram stomped hard on the ground, and five star-shaped gold-patterned silver shields instantly appeared in front of him: this was a Quincy, and its performance was almost equivalent to the Soul Reaper 'Yugram Dankū.
It's obvious.
While the Sanctuary Praise was exchanging fire, Yugram, like Haruto, left herself some room for maneuver.
"Swing the silver whip, it strikes the five-handed stone bed!"
Not only that.
Yugram also used a similar Kōjutsu Eishō method to enhance the defensive power of the Gojūbaku: the gold on the surface of the silver shield became even more dazzling.
However.
While Yugram was using Kōjutsu Eishō to enhance his spiritual magic.
"Lean westward! Accept this atmospheric battle formation!"
Haruto's chanting did not stop.
Compared to the Sanctuary Praise, the Reiatsu displayed by this spiritual technique was not strong, and Yugram had no way of knowing its effect.
That's not surprising.
After all...
This is a self-created spiritual technique invented by Sōken Ishida, which was never recorded in the Lichtreich!
"Gritz Holy Devour - White Face Descent!"
"Boom!!"
The earth collapsed.
A violent explosion resounded simultaneously at the base of the five Quincy Cross created by Yugram — the Sanctuary Praise was supposed to be a defensive technique with no blind spots, and Sōken Ishida's purpose in inventing this spiritual art was precisely to deal with this enormous incantation!
Just as the Quincy Cross was stained with green light and its Reiatsu dimmed and flickered, Haruto's Arrow of Light had already gained an absolute advantage.
As the endless arrows of light tore the Gojūbaku pieces...
"Boom!!"
The bowstring snapped, the arrow shot.
"Hiss--"
A beam of light, interwoven with black and red, streaked across the sky, creating a massive rift that resembled a shattered space.
Shakonmaku?
The Sekkiseki that generated it is indeed a good thing; most spiritual power will be completely decomposed in front of it.
But when facing mixed spiritual energy--
This thing is still a bit lacking.
"..."
Yugram watched as the beam of light swept past her face, brushing away half a strand of her bangs.
Haruto had shifted his angle slightly, he definitely wouldn't be so composed right now.
"Shall we try again?"
Haruto put down the Quincy Cross he was holding.
"You still have the Vollständig left to use, don't you?"
"... No."
Yugram readily admitted defeat.
Just as she had said before, Haruto had already won a move against her.
"That move just now wasn't from Yhwach, was it?"
The ability to dismantle the Sanctuary Praise was something that had never appeared in the Order of Knights of her time, and no one had even thought of researching it.
"Yes."
"Very good..."
Yugram's body gradually transformed into Reishi and returned to Haruto's body.
"Hope has finally appeared."
Until the Seisen reappeared at Haruto's waist.
Hope?
Haruto roughly understood what the hope in Yugram's words meant: a Yhwach no longer bound by Quincy.
"..."
Haruto glanced at the Seisen.
The power that Yugram used just now was less than one-tenth of his full strength; in other words, Seisen never intended to fight him seriously from the beginning... Of course, it's also possible that Yugram can only be considered one-third of Seisen's strength.
If her soul weren't the true form of Seisen, it's hard to say whether her Zanpakuto would become Gillian or something else after it materializes.
"Seemingly..."
