The Royal Guard / Gabriel-No, Wait, Not Gabril, Gabriel

The sudden disappearance of Shunshun Shidō was not due to seeing a ghost, but rather because Shijima Chiru sensed his Reiatsu and went to retrieve him.

After the Shinigami left the East District, they headed to the Sixth Division to assemble. By this time Sixth Division had been converted into a temporary base, and the injured Shinigami members were all sent there.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" Shunshun Shidō grimaced.

A huge gash was slashed across his back, stretching from his left shoulder to his right waist. Blood soaked through his entire back, and the flesh at the wound was torn open, a sight that made one's scalp crawl.

If he hadn't acted quickly enough, the man might have been cut in two.

"Where's Yamabuki? Isn't he in charge of treatment in the Sixth Division? Hurry up and come out to treat my wounds!" Shunshun Shidō said, grimacing.

Chapter 271: The Sternritter

However, the person who treated his wounds was not Yamabuki Chidori, but Tenjirō Kirinji.

"Didn't Yamabuki go to meet you? Didn't you run into him along the way?" Tenjirō Kirinji asked curiously.

Hearing Tenjirō Kirinji say this, everyone's hearts sank. Could it be that Yamabuki Chidori had met with some misfortune?

"What are you thinking? Yamabuki's vitality is comparable to that of a cockroach. Even if we all die, he won't die," Saitō Fubōfu, said.

Perhaps because he was no longer under the control of the other party's power, Saitō Fubōfu head no longer ached, but he couldn't remove the Inverted Cross on his forehead.

After a brief examination, Tenjirō Kirinji discovered that this was not a wound, but rather some kind of rule-based ability, which he was powerless to change.

Afterwards, Tenjirō Kirinji treated the wounded Shinigami. As a professional doctor, he was more skilled at treating wounds than Yamabuki Chidori. With Delia as his assistant, the wounds of the Shinigami who had sustained minor injuries were quickly healed, and they were able to return to the battle.

Saitō Fubōfu, takes out the Hell Butterfly and begins to notify Yamabuki Chidori.

"Yamabuki!!! Didn't you say you were coming to meet us? Where did you go?" Saitō Fubōfu said with great dissatisfaction. If Yamabuki Chidori had arrived earlier, he wouldn't have been tormented like this.

A moment later, Yamabuki Chidori's voice came from the Hell Butterfly: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I've run into some trouble. It's the Wandenreich's Sternritter. I don't have time to talk to you. Let's finish this battle first."

After saying that, Yamabuki Chidori cut off contact.

Upon hearing Yamabuki Chidori's words, everyone's hearts tightened. They had just finished fighting with the Wandenreich's Sternritter, and they knew better than anyone how strong those Sternritter were.

In a one-on-one situation, unless one's abilities are superior to the opponent's, it is very difficult for Captain-level expert to defeat a member of the Sternritter.

Moreover, in the original plan, the members of the Sternritter were meant to be dealt with by Yamabuki Chidori and Captain Commander Yamamoto.

"Trust Yamabuki! We know best how strong he is. If even he can't handle the enemy, we'll just be throwing our lives away," Shunshun Shidō analyzed calmly.

Everyone could only nod helplessly.

"By the way, have you seen the Captain Commander since the start of the war? Where did that Old Man go during the most crucial moment?" Saitō Fubōfu, complained about the Captain Commander while trying to rub off the Inverted Cross mark on his forehead in front of the mirror.

As a result, everyone was shocked. From the very beginning of the war, they had not seen where the Captain Commander had gone, but they had only sensed the Captain Commander's Reiatsu erupt once during this period.

They must have defeated a troublesome enemy.

"These are not issues you should be worried about," Tenjirō Kirinji said calmly. "You just need to do your jobs well. Of course, it's not my place to say that."

Shūtara Senjumaru also arrived at the Sixth Division at this time. Her mission was to lead the Kidō Corps to repair the damaged Shinigami Uniform as quickly as possible.

As a result, all the Captain ' Shinigami Uniform was damaged to varying degrees. Shunshun Shidō's Shinigami Uniform had already used up its three shields long ago, otherwise he wouldn't have bled when he was sniped from a distance.

"Alright, let's get to work!" Shūtara Senjumaru began to work overtime to repair the Shinigami Uniform for the Kidō Corps members.

The Yamabuki Chidori was intercepted halfway through its journey.

After performing surgery on Katoru Hatsunoya, he originally intended to provide support to the East District as quickly as possible, but unexpectedly, he encountered his old nemesis on the way.

"Alice! We meet again! Wasn't you beaten badly enough last time?" Although Yamabuki Chidori's eyes were filled with murderous intent, she still had a faint smile on her face.

He had already witnessed Alice's abilities; although terrifying, they were insignificant compared to his Fullbring.

What truly made Yamabuki Chidori feel uneasy was the presence of a very strange person standing next to Alice.

If you're talking about a man, this face is so beautiful it doesn't look like a male at all.

If you were to call him a woman, his figure is so flat it's almost unbearable to look at.

That kind of beauty transcends the perception of gender.

This may be what is known as being androgynous.

In Ancient Greece mythology, Achilles could blend into a young girl undetected. Yamabuki Chidori always thought this was just a myth, but after seeing this person, he believed it.

People can really grow up to look like this!

"Alice, we're old friends, aren't you going to introduce me to your companion?" Yamabuki Chidori said with a forced smile.

The androgynous person bowed slightly.

"Mr. Yamabuki Chidori, I've long admired your Daimyo. My name is Gabriel, a member of the Sternritter's Sternritter," Gabriel said.

His voice was equally androgynous, a blend of the gentleness of a woman's voice and the magnetism of a man's voice, making it very pleasant to listen to, like a soft, delicate hand gently caressing Yamabuki Chidori.

Yamabuki Chidori never imagined that such a beautiful voice could exist in this world.

"Your Wandenreich really gives me face, actually sending two Sternritter to intercept and kill me at the same time." Yamabuki Chidori immediately raised her guard to the maximum.

The meaning of the three words "Sternritter" is best understood by Yamabuki Chidori.

Leaving aside the present, let's just talk about the lineup a thousand years from now.

If it weren't for various cheat codes and plot-driven deaths, Yhwach's four Sternritter would have been enough to give the entire Gotei 13 a run for their money.

An indestructible the Miracle, capable of the X-Axis defenses, the Soul King's Left Hand that can control all things, and the highest the Compulsory Quantity with the highest chance of killing upon first sight.

Each of them was besieged by multiple Captain-level combatants.

"The Miracle" was besieged by Byakuya, Little White, Kenpachi, and a group of Lieutenant.

Kenpachi unlocked his Bankai, Toshiro awakened his True Bankai, and Byakuya returned from his training at the Soul King Palace.

Despite facing this lineup, Gerard, the "The Miracle," managed to maintain a firm advantage, dominating and beating three opponents.

In the end, he died due to a "plot device" and was Auswählen by Yhwach.

"All-Seeing All-Killing" Lille Barro directly confronted Captain Commander Shunsui Kyōraku. If it weren't for the special attributes of the divine weapon "Hakka no Tō," Shunsui Kyōraku might have become the shortest-serving Captain Commander in history.

"Compulsory Execution" instantly killed Kenpachi Zaraki, who had awakened his powers, upon their first meeting, forcing Kurotsuchi Mayuri cards. In the end, Mayuri only managed to defeat the enemy by sacrificing Nemu Kurotsuchi.

And the record of "The Compulsory Quantity" Askin is even more extraordinary.

Their first meeting nearly drove the Sword God Nimaiya Ōetsu to his death.

He used Kurosaki Ichigo, who had awakened the power of the three-in-one, as a carpet.

He then fought a series of top fighters, including Yushiro Shihōin, Shihōin Yoruichi, and Kisuke Urahara, before finally being defeated by Grimmjow's sneak attack.

Thinking of the terrifying Sternritter a thousand years later, Yamabuki Chidori's gaze toward Gabriel grew increasingly solemn.

Chapter 272: Gabriel, oops, no, I mean Gabriel

Yamabuki Chidori held the sword in one hand, lowered her body, and prepared to end the battle with a single Sword-Draw Slash.

However, Alice opened her Book of Creation and directly wrote down the rules within the barrier.

Those inside the barrier cannot use blades in combat.

In an instant, Yamabuki Chidori felt as if her sword was locked in its sheath, and she couldn't draw it no matter what she did.

Blanch!

Yamabuki Chidori's expression changed slightly, but he didn't panic. Besides his Zanpakuto, he had many other attack methods at his disposal.

Gabriel, standing nearby, showed his displeasure and said in a very gentle tone, "Alice, please don't arbitrarily add rules to this space. My Angel's Sword is unusable now."

Alice said expressionlessly, "That's still better than dealing with a sword that can cleave space! Besides the Angel's Sword, you have other ways to fight, right?"

Gabriel shook his head helplessly, a doting smile on his face. Angel are meant to look at humanity with loving eyes.

"Since I can't use my Zanpakuto, I'll beat you up with my fists!" Yamabuki Chidori appeared in front of Gabriel with lightning speed, Shunkō gathering her power and crashing down with earth-shattering force.

Gabriel simply stretched out one hand and easily grasped Yamabuki Chidori's wrist, as if swatting a fly.

"I admit you are very strong, but ordinary humans and Angel are beings from completely different dimensions. After losing your Zanpakuto, you are no match for me in any way. Our Emperor is very interested in you, and if you are willing to surrender, I can spare your life." Gabriel waved his hand lightly, and Yamabuki Chidori's body seemed to have been struck by a heavy blow, flying dozens of meters away.

Yamabuki Chidori's eyes were filled with horror.

He knew better than anyone how powerful his fist was. Even if there was a mountain in front of him, he could punch a hole in it. Yet this androgynous freak could easily grab his fist and throw it away. This was simply outrageous!

"Calm down, calm down, Gabriel, this name must be from Christianity, right? It's related to Angel, Angel... Damn it, why do I think of that incredibly unreliable Angel Gabriel whenever I think of the name Gabriel?" The image of that useless, cute Angel flashed through Yamabuki Chidori's mind.

Gabriel smiled and said, "You seem to be thinking about something very bad. Human thoughts shouldn't be so impure. Would you like me to help you Purification your mind?"

Yamabuki Chidori didn't want to waste time talking to Gabriel here.

"Hadō #90, Black Coffin"

Darkness rose from beneath Gabriel's feet, an endless embrace of darkness, followed by countless blades attacking from all directions.

After the Black Coffin shattered, Yamabuki Chidori stared at the enemy.

The results showed that Gabriel was almost completely unharmed.

At the same time, His form also changed from what it was at the beginning.

Six pure white wings of light appeared behind Gabriel, and pure white feathers slowly fell from the sky.

Six-winged Angel form.

"How many times do I have to tell you before you understand? Ordinary people's attacks can't hurt me; we're in different dimensions," Gabriel said with a helpless tone, then lightly tapped his finger, and a white light flew out.

Yamabuki Chidori also extended her finger, and a Cero was launched.

These two energies appear to be extremely small, but when they collide, it's like a nuclear explosion.

The massive blast wave destroyed all buildings within a radius of 100 meters, and a mushroom cloud even appeared in the sky.

"Infinite Cero!" Yamabuki Chidori lightly leaped into the sky, waved her hands, and a barrage of Cero rained down like a storm. Gabriel simply spread his six wings of light, enveloping Alice in them as well.

A single Cero, capable of altering the terrain, rained down on His wings like a storm, yet Gabriel remained remarkably calm, as if it were merely raindrops.

Alice opened the Book of Creation again.

It reads, "No one is allowed to use the Hollow Power!"

The Infinite Cero abruptly stopped, like Gatling that had run out of bullets.

Yamabuki Chidori's expression grew increasingly strange. The Book of Creation was already disgusting enough, but using it in conjunction with her teammates made it even more disgusting.

Gabriel shook his head with a helpless expression. "There's nothing he can do. He can only subdue you and then tie you up and take you back to see His Majesty."

With a gentle flutter of its six wings, it appeared before Yamabuki Chidori Yamabuki Chidori in a form completely incomprehensible to her, and with a gentle wave of its arm.

Yamabuki Chidori's brain sent him another signal: he absolutely could not block this attack with his body. However, the opponent's speed was too fast, and there was simply no time to dodge. In desperation, he could only use his arm to block.

The moment their hands collided, Yamabuki Chidori's arm exploded like tofu, spraying blood and bone everywhere. Yamabuki Chidori remained expressionless, casually casting a Sekienton with her remaining hand, and then quickly retreating using Flash Step.

He's suffered so many injuries that this little wound doesn't even need a band-aid.

However, to Yamabuki Chidori's dismay, her shattered arm did not recover as expected.

"By the way, Super Regeneration is also Hollow Power. Has my recovery ability also been sealed?" Yamabuki Chidori's heart sank, and she turned to use the Kido to heal herself.

However, the treatment available for those Kido is limited.

At least, things like limb regeneration are impossible.

Otherwise, the Captain Commander a thousand years later wouldn't be able to fight a powerful enemy with just one hand.

As for why Soi Fon arm was able to regenerate?

Ask Tite Kubo.

The look in Yamabuki Chidori's eyes when she looked at Gabriel was no longer serious, but downright horrified.

The impact between their arms wasn't exactly a violent collision; it was just a simple touch.

Even so, his left arm collapsed instantly.

In terms of destructive power alone, even the Captain Commander couldn't do that.

That leaves only one possibility: Gabriel activated his "Schrift" ability just now.

Since the start of the confrontation, Gabriel has never revealed his abilities, only displaying the form of an Angel.

Yamabuki Chidori knew virtually nothing about other forces.
