Retsu Unohana: I'm well practiced at killing Quincy

Yhwach was stunned, Retsu Unohana was also taken aback.

She watched as her strongest opponent from a thousand years ago was so easily crushed by her young boyfriend, her red lips parted slightly, but she didn't know what to say.

But all in all, well done!

But such words are completely out of character for Retsu Tamagotchi. Neither the elegant and serene Captain Tamagotchi nor the bloodthirsty and ruthless Unohana Yachiru utter such a thing.

So Sister Hua raised her sleeve, avoiding Yhwach's slightly bewildered gaze, and gave Shazo a sweet smile, her red lips moving as she silently repeated "Well done!" several times.

Shazo noticed his older sister's little joke and smiled knowingly.

Yhwach, son of the Son of the Soul King and emperor of the Wandenreich, had never suffered such humiliation. Even his defeat at the hands of Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto a thousand years ago had not enraged him so much.

"You damn bastard!"

Yhwach opened his left hand, and countless small Heilig Pfeil suddenly shot out from his palm, the dense explosions covering the area where Shazo was located.

Before the thick smoke had even cleared, he made a fist again, summoning countless light arrows that shot down from the sky.

[Prince's Fighting Style]

As everyone knows, using the [Prince's Fighting Style] will trigger the "no damage with smoke" rule 100%, and Yhwach is no exception.

Just as he was venting his anger, sending more and more Heilig Pfeil over for a barrage of attacks, Shazo Zuo suddenly burst out of the smoke and dust, his already Shikai Heaven-Measuring Ruler whistling as it smashed toward the enemy's head.

Yhwach didn't have time to change the direction of the Heilig Pfeil, so he could only raise the Spirit Particles Claymore and hold it against his own head.

Clang!!!

The Heaven-Measuring Ruler and the Spirit Particles Claymore clashed, their weapons exchanging blows and creating a powerful gust of wind that dispersed the dust, revealing the figure of Retsu Unohana.

Captain Unohana, carrying her Zanpakuto, tried to approach, but found herself unable to get close to the two who were locked in combat. At this moment, Shazo sneered, and with a sudden burst of strength in her arms gripping the sword, the increased power flowed through the blade and into Yhwach.

Yhwach was shocked to find that his strength was far inferior to his opponent's, and he could only retreat helplessly, his anger being forcibly suppressed.

After he unleashed his strength and finally managed to steady himself, he had completely calmed down.

Yhwach was filled with shock and confusion. He couldn't understand the situation. Shazo was just a Death God, and he hadn't even been Death God for more than 100 years. How could he have such great power?

How could the Death God be stronger than him, the Son of the Soul King? How could this be?

Shazo forced Yhwach back with a single blow, and his aura completely changed.

A sharp Sword Qi capable of slicing through everything soared into the sky. Wherever the Sword Qi spread, everything rapidly disintegrated, as if condensing a long period of weathering into just a few seconds.

Seeing this, Yhwach's eyes twitched.

He tightened his cloak, suddenly retreated, and at the same time swung his Spirit Particles Claymore, which transformed into a giant Spirit Particles longbow in mid-air.

Yhwach drew his bow in mid-air, and several terrifying Spirit Particles arrows shot out from the bowstring.

As Yhwach released his fingers, the gleaming bowstring propelled the Spirit Particles arrow, which hurtled toward Shazo with terrifying force.

Yhwach unleashed his full power in a fit of rage, surprise, and fear, leaving no room for error in his attack.

Wherever the Spirit Particles arrows struck, the hard floor cracked. The throne, which was only slightly grazed, could not withstand the incomprehensible Spiritual Pressure and instantly disintegrated, exploding into countless Spirit Particles light particles.

But Shazo simply waved the Heaven-Measuring Ruler, drawing a perfect Sifang in front of him, and teleported the Spirit Particles arrow that was aimed at him to the outside of the Ice Palace.

This kind of powerful Spirit Particles arrow cannot be handled by random teleportation from a triangle.

Even with its increased complexity and more than tenfold increase in capacity, the Sifang still couldn't transmit all the Spirit Particles arrows.

When the last three long arrows were halfway through their transmission, the Sifang constructed by the Heaven-Measuring Ruler could not withstand the recoil force of the transmission and suddenly disintegrated, causing an explosion.

Boom!

The three Spirit Particles arrows exploded, and even though half of their power was released outside, the remaining half blasted a bottomless crater into the ground of the Royal Palace. Cracks spread out like a spider web around the crater, tearing apart the towering walls. All the supporting pillars inside the Royal Palace collapsed, even affecting the stability of the foundation, and the sounds of collapse continued all around.

This power demonstrates just how terrifying Yhwach's boundless rage can be.

Under normal circumstances, Yhwach would have been enraged and killed someone if he saw someone wantonly vandalizing his home.

But this time he did it himself, so he really can't blame anyone else.

What's even more deadly is that Shazo so easily diverted most of the power of such a fierce attack, and he was able to withstand the rest as if nothing had happened.

The storm that exploded right on his face was like a spring breeze, not even causing Shazo's skin to wrinkle.

Yhwach frowned and said, "Since my resurrection, I've always thought my opponents would be Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, or Unohana Yachiru, or even Aizen Sousuke, or the Nezumi of the Zero Division of the Soul Society."

"I never imagined that an ordinary Death God like you would possess strength far exceeding that of Death God!"

"Since that's the case, I can no longer hold back. I'm going to kill you with all my might; I can't let you interfere with my plans."

Shazo shook his head. "Come on."

The two men's overwhelming momentum made it impossible for Egg Flower Retsu to stand firm.

She secretly compared her own strength with that of Shazo and Yhwach, and immediately decided to follow her heart and give her little man room to act freely.

While the two were locked in a standoff, Retsu Unohana used [Instant Cloth] to reach the Main Gate and slipped away from the Royal Palace, which was filled with violent Spiritual Pressure.

She carefully closed the heavy Main Gate, bringing the Royal Palace's Barrier to its strongest state.

In an instant, the world fell silent.

Retsu Unohana no longer had that feeling of being in a raging storm, like a small boat that could be swallowed up by the raging waves at any moment.

"It feels so good to be quiet—" Retsu Unohana said with her eyes closed, "It would be even better if you Quincy who came here to die weren't around."

On the main passageway in front of the Royal Palace, sensing the burst of Spiritual Pressure from their lord, the Quincy defied Haschwalth's orders to return to provide support drew their bows and fired a dense barrage of Spirit Particles arrows.

The dazzling Spirit Particles rained down like a storm, but in Retsu Unohana's eyes, they were not as threatening as an arrow shot by Yhwach.

"Wow, I didn't expect Shazo, this Little Boy, to be so amazing."

"Although I already knew he was powerful, and I understood that any man who dared to pursue me must be incredibly strong, this Little Boy is just too strong, which makes me a little uneasy."

"Hehe, I'm also a little happy----"

Retsu Unohana's girlish heart began to stir. Lost in thought, she Zanpakuto and unleashed a bloody Carnage on the Quincy.

The Spirit Particles arrows fired by these weak Quincy were extinguished by Retsu Unohana's Spiritual Pressure even ten meters below, turning into wisps of white smoke.

Retsu Unohana's Zanpakuto, with its casually unleashed Sword Qi, could claim the lives of more than a dozen people with each strike.

As the Blade slashed down, several alluring crimson flowers bloomed, Retsu Unohana easily slew the last few Soldat.

By this time, the corpses in the passageway had formed two full layers, with the bottom layer completely submerged in blood; the horrific scene was no less terrifying than Hell itself.

Stimulated by the strong smell of blood, Retsu Unohana's breathing became heavier and heavier, and the killing intent in her heart grew stronger.

Unlike other bloodthirsty individuals, Retsu Unohana's killing intent is not satisfied by ordinary weaklings. She needs sufficiently powerful enemies and the blood of the strong to satisfy her boiling lust for slaughter.

"Ah, the enemy is right ahead, why don't you come out? Ha! Ha! Let me taste your blood!"

Retsu Unohana's eyes were bloodshot, her gaze half-dazed and half-mad, fixed on the darkness deep within the tunnel.

Swish!

With a horizontal slash, the Blade the Minazuki slashed, sending a streak of Sword Qi hurtling forward before disappearing into the darkness of the tunnel in the blink of an eye.

With a click, the passageway ahead lit up, and the young man in the white military robe of the Wandenreich shone, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

He walked slowly out of the passageway, and only when the radiance on his body gradually faded did his disheveled long black hair and bare feet become visible.

The young Quincy calmly said, "Fourth Division Captain Retsu Unohana, your senses are truly sharp!"

The young man had a strange accent, and when he started speaking, Retsu Unohana realized that he had two tongues in his mouth.

She gave a disgusted look. "Two tongues look disgusting. How about I pull one out for you, or both?"

The young Quincy remained expressionless and continued, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Nionso Huasso! A member of the Sternritter."

"His Majesty bestowed upon me the Schrift W, symbolizing the ability to be the Wind."

Retsu Unohana calmly asked, "The Wind... could it be related to space?"

"It doesn't matter. I'm very skilled at Quincy. No matter how strange your abilities are, you are still just humans. Once you're cut down, you'll die a swift death."

Nionso Huasso stomped on the corpse beneath his feet and sneered, "Foolish woman, how dare you compare us, the Sternritter, to these cannon fodder?"

"Hehehe, how interesting." Retsu Unohana laughed from the bottom of her heart, "After a thousand years, you Quincy of the Sternritter still say the same things. Are you really in a cycle of reincarnation?"

Niangso Huasso's eyes glazed over for a moment. "A thousand years ago?"

[Holy crap!! Did I run into some kind of old witch?]

Retsu Unohana nodded and said, "That's right! A thousand years ago, I participated in the Quincy clan. Didn't anyone tell you that?"

Upon hearing this, Niango Huasso's face immediately darkened. "I never care about worthless intelligence, but since you are Carnage from a thousand years ago, your crimes are unforgivable!"

Retsu Unohana pointed her Zanpakuto at the corpse of the Quincy she had just slain. "Not only a thousand years ago, but I also just killed countless Quincy."

"A person as heinous as me doesn't deserve forgiveness!"

Nionso Huasso scoffed, "Forgiveness? I'd rather send you to Hell and have you beg for forgiveness from all the Quincy you've murdered!"

"There's no need for Quincy's forgiveness. A Little Boy told me that anyone killed to establish a stable order isn't innocent, and there's no need to feel guilty."

"Quincy devour Spirit Particles, thus distorting Spirit Particles for their own use. When there are few of you, it's not a problem, but when there are many of you, you become the greatest threat to the world. Killing you would not be a bad thing."

Retsu Unohana stepped forward, instantly appearing beside Nionso Huasso, the silver light of her Zanpakuto Instant Flash towards his neck. "Besides, the dead can't forgive others!"

The Blade flashed with a chilling light, and it seemed that Retsu Unohana was about to decapitate Nionso Huasso, but at the very Blade moment, it took a strange deflection.

Retsu Unohana's Zanpakuto, Minazuki, is a Zanpakuto with a large curve, but at this moment the blade actually bent into a circle and slid past Nionso Huaso's head.

Retsu Unohana's pupils suddenly contracted. She wasn't surprised that her sword was twisted, but rather that she didn't feel any change in the force applied to it, as if her Zanpakuto was still the same as before.

Retsu Unohana encountered an inexplicable anomaly; instead of employing her usual tactics of continuous attacks, she immediately unleashed [...].

Shunpo] Retreat a distance.

After Security Guard, Retsu Unohana lowered her eyelids slightly and glanced at the Minazuki in her hand.

Confirming that his Zanpakuto was still at its normal curve, the moment he missed the opponent's head seemed like an illusion.

Nionso Huasso chuckled dismissively, "Isn't it strange that your Zanpakuto is bent?"

The Quincy's smile was strange, like a forced expression on someone with facial paralysis, sending chills down your spine.

Because his two tongues were interfering with each other, Niangso Huaso mumbled, "I told you before, His Majesty bestowed upon me the Schrift power 'W,' which is the Wind."

"Simply put, it means that no matter where the attack comes from or what kind of attack it is, it will automatically avoid my body—but whether it's related to space, as you guessed, I don't know."

Retsu Unohana sneered, "You just reveal your power like that? Aren't you afraid I'll find a flaw and kill you?"

"It's alright, anyway, your Death God's Zanpakuto can't hurt me," Nionso Huasso said. "Not only Zanpakuto, but no malicious attack can touch me."

"Hadō #31: Shakkahō!"

Whoosh!

"Hadō #88: Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō!!"

Click!

Retsu Unohana unleashed two consecutive Hadō, but just like the previous Zanpakuto, the Hadō curved into arcs in front of Nionso Huaso and bypassed his body.
