Descent, Yhwach

After activating his Vollständig, Haschwalth is temporarily invincible. No matter what misfortune Ichigo and Uryū cause him, it will be blocked by the Shield of Sacrifice on his Vollständig.

After failing to inflict any real damage, Ichigo intended to hand Haschwalth over to Uryū to deal with, letting the two of them play with their pinball machines while he went off to help his other companions.

Unexpectedly, Haschwalth relentlessly pursued Ichigo, even enduring Uryū's attacks without letting Ichigo leave.

"Damn it! What do you want?!" Ichigo was filled with rage. Facing such a cotton-like opponent was incredibly frustrating for a power attacker like him.

Haschwalth didn't answer, but just kept attacking Ichigo. To counter his World Harmony, Uryū's the Antithesis was necessary. For Haschwalth, entangled with one person could indirectly hold back two combatants. This calculation couldn't be easier.

Haschwalth relentlessly pursued Ichigo and Uryū, unmoved by the deaths of his companions or the news of Liltotto's betrayal. He simply continued his relentless attack on Ichigo.

This battle continued until all the Quincy in the World of the Living, those who were to be turned against were turned against, and those who were to be eliminated were eliminated, and then they all surrounded Haschwalth alone.

"Hey! You've already failed." Ichigo said with a smile while exchanging blows with Haschwalth. Surrounding one person with the entire arena was an absolute advantage.

"Is that so? Then come and kill me!"

Haschwalth's words annoyed Ichigo. "Nonsense," he thought, "If I could kill him, I would have done it already. Where would I get such a disgusting ability? World Harmony."

During his battle with Ichigo, Haschwalth gradually realized that injuring Ichigo was pointless, as Uryū would reverse all the injuries.

Therefore, when Haschwalth used World Harmony to bring misfortune upon Ichigo, he deliberately adjusted the way the misfortune struck.

He no longer used these misfortunes to hurt Ichigo, but instead constantly used them to trip Ichigo up, such as making Ichigo slip when he Ichigo sword, or tripping over his own feet while walking so he would fall flat on his face, and so on.

These misfortunes were not very harmful to Ichigo, but they were extremely humiliating.

Haschwalth, having adjusted his battle strategy, seemed to be mocking Ichigo. Without Haschward actively pursuing Ichigo, the various misfortunes that befell Ichigo naturally ignited Ichigo's anger.

But Ichigo just couldn't kill Haschwalth. His despicable Vollständig ability and Scapegoat gave Haschwalth the ability to live as long as Karakura Town.

"It's a bit troublesome, but not too difficult," Urahara said, standing beside Uryū. "We just need to stop the flow of Reishi around him."

Haschwalth relies on the power of the Sklaverei to form the Shield of Sin. As long as the Sklaverei's ability is disabled, and combined with Uryū's attack, Haschwalth can be killed easily.

After informing Uryū of his proposed solution, Urahara prepared to seal off the Reishi surrounding Haschwalth. With masters of the Kido like Tessai and Hachigen present, sealing off the flow of Reishi within a space was not a difficult task.

Before Urahara Kisuke even begin his operation, the sky suddenly darkened.

"You've disappointed me, Haschwalth!"

An incomparably majestic voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth. In the black sky, a figure slowly descended, his aura alone enough to intimidate all the enemies present, as if he were a sovereign ruling the world.

The same thought echoed in the minds of everyone present: Yhwach has arrived!

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!" Haschwalth knelt on one knee reverently, placing one hand on his chest and bowing his head as he spoke.

Yhwach waved his hand dismissively, and a surge of spiritual pressure lifted Haschwalth up. Without even glancing at Haschwalth, his gaze fell on a distant house. "Just do your job!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Haschwalth, once again disregarding everything, launched Ichigo. Ichigo, hastily defending himself, could only angrily shout, "What the hell are you doing?"

Ichigo didn't understand why Haschwalth was targeting him; shouldn't he be prioritizing eliminating Ishida Uryū, who posed a greater threat to him?

After carefully sensing the spiritual pressure in Karakura Town, Yhwach smiled. He had guessed correctly; the Soul King had indeed been brought to the World of the Living!

Just as Yhwach was about to head towards his target location, swish, swish, swish, all the combatants except Ichigo and Uryū blocked Yhwach way.

"Yhwach, what brings you to this World of the Living?" Urahara Kisuke pressed down on his small felt hat, ready to fight Yhwach at any moment.

"Still hiding, Urahara Kisuke?" Yhwach showed no impatience; in his view, the world was already in his grasp. "Transferring the Soul King to the World of the Living —that was your doing, wasn't it?"

Yhwach's words shocked everyone except for Tatsuki. Even Yoruichi, whom he was very close to, had not been told by Urahara Kisuke that the Soul King had come to the World of the Living world.

"Whatever you want to do, stopping you is never wrong!" Urahara Kisuke didn't explain further. Dealing with the enemy was the top priority now, and they had to hold out until Soul Society's reinforcements arrived.

Based on the intelligence he had, Urahara Kisuke estimated that the progress of the battle in Soul Society was about the same as in the World of the Living. As long as they could hold out for a while, reinforcements from Soul Society should arrive.

Led by Urahara Kisuke, everyone drew their swords and threw punches. They were all used to Urahara Kisuke always doing big things quietly. Now, their first priority was to deal with the biggest enemy in this war, Yhwach.

"Even Sosuke Aizen couldn't stop me, so what gives you rabble the audacity to stand before me!"

Yhwach's eyes widened, and an incredibly terrifying spiritual pressure surged directly onto everyone. The spiritual pressure and aura alone were already unbearable, let alone fighting.

Those whose power level doesn't Beyond Bankai are simply not qualified to participate in this battle.

"The witch's broom!"

With a deep roar, Chad stood at the front of the group, his left leg transforming into a broom-like shape, and with one kick, he swept away the pressure emanating from Yhwach.

"Magic?" Yhwach scoffed. "A power that's gone astray, and you dare to show off?"

Yhwach casually flicked his wrist, unleashing a shockwave even more powerful than Chad's left kick towards the crowd. "Do you know what the Almighty truly mean!"

Omniscient, he already knew Chad's abilities when Chad made his move; omnipotent, he immediately copied and unleashed even greater power.

Urahara Kisuke and the others were blown about, and at that moment, Urahara Kisuke also knew that the existing power of the Three Worlds was simply not enough to threaten the Almighty Yhwach.

There's only one person I can rely on left.

Sawada.

The moment Yhwach appeared, Tsuna calmly put down his coffee cup. He glanced at the clock, "Fifteen minutes later than expected. As expected, Yhwach's the Almighty aren't invincible, are they?"

"Soul King?" Tsuna turned to look to the side. The Soul King, whose expression remained unchanged throughout the ages, had a glint in his eyes. He seemed to agree with what Tsuna said.

Standing up and stretching, Tsuna did some light stretching. "Let me warm up a bit. Judging by the time, Yhwach should be here soon. Please, Soul King, make your presence felt."

Since arriving in this world, this is the first time Tsuna has addressed the Soul King as "sir," in order to ask for the Soul King's help.

After all, it's Yhwach. Tsuna doesn't want his friend to really die at Yhwach's hands, but he can't just leave at will. The only way is to ask the Soul King for help.

Let the Soul King emit a fishy smell to attract Yhwach's fly.

On the battlefield where Urahara Kisuke of the Almighty, they were completely unable to do anything to Yhwach. On the contrary, Yhwach saw through their weaknesses in a single move and knocked them to the ground.

Ichigo and Uryū, who were entangled with Haschwalth, could only watch anxiously, but neither of them had any way to get to Yhwach's battlefield.

Haschwalth changed the way misfortune befell them, with all sorts of minor misfortunes happening to them, making sure Ichigo was never out of his sight.

Ichigo can't leave, Uryū is even less likely to leave. If he leaves, Haschwalth will immediately try to kill Ichigo.

Yhwach casually strolled through the barrage of attacks, each strike taking down a child with a single blow. His gaze fell on Tatsuki, and he asked with interest, "If I kill you, Sawada Tsunayoshi will come running like a madman, right?"

Yhwach was furious at the fact that he had been tricked by Aizen and Tsuna. Driven by his anger, he immediately wanted to take revenge on those who had schemed against him. Killing Urahara Kisuke and provoking Sawada Tsunayoshi seemed like a good way to get back at them.

Just as Yhwach was about to make his move, a surge of spiritual pressure rose from the depths of Karakura Town —a call from his bloodline.

Yhwach turned his gaze, a longing look flashing in his eyes. He couldn't see it clearly, still couldn't see it clearly, but that unknown yet familiar spiritual pressure had only one master: the Soul King.

"Was it you who invited me? How could I not accept this invitation?" Yhwach disappeared from his spot and headed towards the location where the spiritual pressure had appeared.

Tsuna looked speechlessly at his house, which had no ceiling. The Soul King had made a fuss, and as a result, he had even ripped off the roof. Well, that was fine too, Tsuna didn't even have to leave the house to see the unpleasant guest arrive.

"Long time no see, Yhwach!" Tsuna said to the figure in mid-air.

Since their brief encounter in Hueco Mundo, Tsuna hasn't seen Yhwach for over a year. He should have done everything in his power to keep him in Hueco Mundo back then, but unfortunately, he escaped.

Yhwach's gaze didn't fall on Tsuna at all; he looked at the man called Father with a complicated expression.

My dream is within reach: Slay the Soul King! Merge the Three Worlds! Become a king, a true emperor!

(It's too cold, my hands are freezing, I don't want to do it, sorry!)
