Evolution / Unohana: When I Go Berserk, No One Can Stop Me

Even so, it was still a step too late; his entire left arm, along with his shoulder, was severed.

However, the blood flowing from His body was not red, but golden.

"It seems even Angel bleed. I admit you're very strong, but unfortunately, in this world, whoever has more blood can wield greater power. You, with only Quincy abilities, cannot defeat me." Yamabuki Chidori said, "Young man, I admire your abilities. Why not abandon darkness and join my Gotei 13? Although all the Captain positions are already filled, giving you a Lieutenant position wouldn't be a problem at all! Why follow that Yhwach?"

Gabriel clutched his shoulder in pain. If an ordinary person had suffered such a severe injury, they would have lost consciousness long ago, let alone clutch the wound.

"You simply do not understand His Majesty's great aspirations! His Majesty wants to create a fearless world without birth or death, without fear—a true utopia, a perfect Eden. How could a mortal like you possibly comprehend it?" Gabriel said in a deeply pained voice, "Ever since I understood His Majesty's aspirations, I have sworn to follow him to the death, until the moment I fall in battle."

"Is a world without fear good?" Yamabuki Chidori herself wasn't a philosopher and couldn't offer any profound insights, but a thousand years later, a great philosopher named Aizen Sōsuke said, "Yhwach envisioned a world no longer burdened by fear. However, in a world less afraid of death, people won't overcome fear, won't persevere. Indeed, people can simply face the future through a simple life. Compared to Yohbach's desperate attempts to escape death, this isn't truly confronting death. Therefore, people give this unique spirit a special name... courage."

Gabriel was stunned by this series of incredibly sophisticated words. Although he couldn't understand what the young man in front of him was saying, he felt that the young man was really amazing!

"You don't need to say anything more. My mind is made up. No matter what, you can't stop me. You are too much of a threat to His Majesty. Even if I have to take you down with me, I can't let you see His Majesty." Gabriel's Reiatsu began to rise, eventually reaching the limit he could bear.

Yamabuki Chidori quietly watched Gabriel recklessly increase his power. Whether it's a Shinigami, a Hollow, or Quincy, there's always a limit to the power one can reach.

"Are you imitating the Perfect Sanctification?" Yamabuki Chidori asked coldly. He did not stop him because he knew that outsiders who forcibly imitated the Perfect Sanctification of this period would only perish on their own.

Once the force exceeds the limits that one's body can withstand, all the cells in the body will wither and die. If not treated in time, death will occur within minutes.

Gabriel no longer considered the consequences and frantically enhanced his abilities. His snow-white wings turned pitch black, and a large, pure black eye appeared on each wing.

His terrifying appearance made him more like the Angel described in the Bible.

Gabriel could clearly feel the changes in his body and knew that once this mode was activated, he only had a few minutes left to live. He didn't want to waste a single second and had to defeat the enemy in front of him as quickly as possible.

The six large eyes on its wings emitted Destruction Ray.

In an instant Seireitei beneath her feet turned into ruins, Yamabuki Chidori let out a long sigh.

"Perfect Sanctification!"

Six wings of light appeared behind him.

"Space Severance!"

In an instant, the six Destruction Ray were severed from the spatial plane, Gabriel's three wings on the left side were also destroyed instantly.

"Don't you understand the difference in strength between us?" Yamabuki Chidori calmly looked at the enemy before her.

If any two of the three conflicting powers—Soul Reaper, Hollow, and Quincy— were to perfectly merge, the result would be 1+1>∞.

The effect.

After the powers of the Shinigami and the Quincy were perfectly fused, it was no longer a dimension that Gabriel could touch.

Gabriel swayed precariously, a bitter smile on his face, "I can't let you see His Majesty, Yamabuki Chidori, let's die together, and sacrifice the Seireitei you're protecting."

A dark light emanated from Gabriel's body.

His Reiatsu became extremely unstable, and Yamabuki Chidori knew what he was about to do at a glance.

Self-destruct.

His ability is like an indestructible bomb, and coupled with his Reiatsu that surpasses that of Captain-level, if he were to explode instantly, half of Seireitei would be destroyed in the self-destruction.

Yamabuki Chidori raised the Scarlet Angel in his left hand, using a technique he had possessed for a long time but had never had the chance to use.

"Za Warudo, time, stand still!"

For a moment, the whole world stood still.

Every atom, every photon, stopped moving; the entire universe fell into a state of absolute stillness.

Apart from Yamabuki Chidori herself, no one else could move an inch.

Of course, even with the Perfect Sanctification activated, the Time Stop can only last for a mere two seconds.

But for a powerhouse of this level, two seconds is enough time to do a lot of things.

Time resumed its flow, and Gabriel's consciousness remained frozen at the moment before Time Stop. However, when he tried to continue his self-destruction, he discovered...

His own head had already rolled on the ground.

"How... could... time..." Gabriel was utterly horrified, but soon, his consciousness gradually faded into darkness.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Yamabuki Chidori severed Gabriel's head with a single strike, letting out a long sigh of relief. The drain on Reiatsu from Time Stop was too great; those two short seconds had almost drained his body dry.

but...

Yamabuki Chidori stared at Gabriel's body.

Isn't this like a powerful tonic delivered right to your doorstep?

Chapter 278: Evolution

Although Yamabuki Chidori herself doesn't eat people, she can't resist Gabriel's irresistible allure. Gabriel, as Quincy, is already quite powerful, and with the "Soul King's Liver" inside him, he's practically a perfect tonic for someone like Yamabuki Chidori who can devour Quincy power.

"Little sister, although I pity you and want to give you a proper burial, your soul will be devoured by Yhwach after you die. Rather than letting Yhwach benefit, I might as well benefit you directly." Yamabuki Chidori no longer held back and directly spat out many tentacles from her palm, which pierced through Gabriel's body and devoured all the power within him.

It smells so good.

Gabriel's strength as Quincy is indeed considerable, but his ability to improve Yamabuki Chidori's power is limited.

What truly made Yamabuki Chidori feel her strength surge was the Soul King's Liver. Yamabuki Chidori could clearly feel that after completely consuming the Soul King's liver, the Reiatsu within her body soared at an unimaginable speed, even reaching a completely different level than before.

A murky white slurry gushed from his body, forming a cocoon around him. Yamabuki Chidori realized that he might be about to undergo a wave of evolution.

"Wait a minute, I'm very happy that I can evolve now, but could you let me choose a safe place?" Yamabuki Chidori said to herself.

Clearly, his body disagreed with this decision and forcibly evolved on the spot.

Yamabuki Chidori's consciousness fell into a deep sleep. He knew that once he woke up, his strength would reach a new level.

He could only hope that no enemies would bother him during his evolution.

Otherwise, they would have no power to resist.

The white slime formed a spiderweb-like barrier around them, but it was only for show. If there were any intruders, this level of defense would be almost useless. Almost simultaneously, all the Captain in Seireitei felt that Yamabuki Chidori's Reiatsu had disappeared.

The members of the Sixth Division, who were recuperating, looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Am I imagining things? Yamabuki... Yamabuki Chidori's Reiatsu suddenly disappeared!" Saitō Fubōfu forced a smile onto his face.

Shunshun Shidō's facial muscles twitched slightly. It wasn't an illusion; everyone felt it. Yamabuki Chidori's Reiatsu had actually disappeared.

There's generally only one possibility for the disappearance of Reiatsu.

die.

"Calm down." Although Katoru Hatsunoya was still lying in the hospital bed, he was calmer than everyone else present. "It's not that Reiatsu only disappears when someone dies. Maybe he's deliberately hiding his Reiatsu, just like Shijima Chiru's Bankai. We know best how tenacious his life force is. He won't die so easily."

The Kidō, White Concealment, allows one to conceal their Reiatsu. Since Shinigami often need to carry out assassination missions, some clever Shinigami have developed Kidō that allow them to hide their Reiatsu.

Yamabuki Chidori is a recognized master of Kidō in Seireitei, so naturally she would use Kidō at this level.

After hearing Katoru Hatsunoya had to say, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.

At least this reason sounded reasonable, but they soon thought of a more important question: what exactly happened to Yamabuki Chidori that forced him to hide his Reiatsu?

Did he charge straight into the enemy's base all by himself?

Given Yamabuki Chidori's personality, this is very likely.

"Shihōin, you're the fastest, so please go and see what happened. If something unexpected has occurred... contact us immediately using the Hell Butterfly," said Katoru Hatsunoya.

Shunshun Shidō's injuries had not fully healed, but because she was so worried about Yamabuki Chidori, she had no choice but to make the trip herself.

He disappeared from the Sixth Division in an instant.

Seireitei.

West District.

The two sword lights collided violently in mid-air.

Then the sword light split, and two figures landed on the buildings below from the heights.

One of them was Unohana Yachiru, the Captain the 11th Division of the Gotei 13.

The other person was a Knight clad in heavy armor.

"You were distracted during that attack, was something wrong?" The Knight's muffled voice came from beneath his heavy armor.

Unohana Yachiru's expression remained unchanged.

Just a moment ago, she noticed that Yamabuki Chidori's Reiatsu had disappeared. At first, she and everyone else thought the same thing: that something had happened to Yamabuki Chidori. But she quickly realized that Yamabuki Chidori must have been hiding her Reiatsu because of something.

It was this incident that slightly disturbed Unohana's mind, and her left sleeve was slashed open by the enemy's sword energy, but it did not cause any serious injury.

"It's nothing, let's continue." Unohana looked at the tin can in front of her.

That's a very interesting opponent.

Upon meeting, the man in the tin can very gentlemanly revealed his name.

"I am a member of the Sternritter, my Schrift is Q, and my ability is called Knight. I can summon Pegasus to fight. By the way, my name is Arthur. What about you?"

The moment they met, Tin Can revealed all his abilities in detail, leaving Unohana completely bewildered. "This is a war, not a friendship," she thought. "Is it really okay for you to tell me everything about your abilities right away?"

Seeing Unohana's confusion, Arthur said proudly, "I am Knight. Even when fighting enemies, I must defeat them through fair and square means. I despise those who hide their abilities and launch a sneak attack."

Looking at her overly straightforward opponent, Unohana was momentarily speechless.

I never expected the Sternritter to have someone like this.

Then, the tin can pulled out its two-handed greatsword.

This was the first time Unohana had ever seen a Western sword.

Zanpakuto are essentially large katanas, and it's extremely difficult for someone without training to wield one hand.

But the Western-style giant sword that this tin can pulled out was ridiculously large.

The blade alone is over 150 centimeters long.

The sword is wide and thick; it's obvious that it would be very cumbersome to wield.

But when they actually clashed, Unohana realized she was terribly wrong. The seemingly heavy greatsword was as nimble as a girl's embroidery needle in Tetsuya's hands. Moreover, although his swordsmanship was very different from the swordsmanship that was popular in Soul Society, his offense and defense were well-organized. Combined with the super high defense provided by his heavy armor, Unohana was unable to defeat her opponent in a short time.

The two engaged in a sword duel, fighting from the ground all the way to the sky, until Unohana suddenly sensed that Yamabuki Chidori's Reiatsu had disappeared, at which point she realized she had been struck.

Chapter 279: Unohana: When I go crazy, no one can stop me.

"Although I don't know what happened to Yamabuki, I can only deal with the enemy in front of me as quickly as possible and then go to support him." With that thought, Unohana gripped her sword with both hands and launched a fierce attack.

Arthur stared at the petite girl before him, his eyes wide with horror beneath his helmet.

He was over 1.9 meters tall, while the girl in front of him was no more than 1.6 meters tall. However, in the exchange, his strength was overwhelmingly superior to hers. If it weren't for the heavy armor he was wearing, he would have been injured during the correction.

At that moment, Unohana, wielding her sword with both hands, charged forward like a tiger, slashing down from above with incredible speed.

Arthur hurriedly raised his swords to block, and the two swords clashed. The enormous force forced Arthur to his knees, and his arms beneath the gauntlets were throbbing with pain.

"Is this girl a monster? How can she be so strong?" Arthur barely managed to block the attack with all his might. Unohana's figure appeared behind him like a ghost, the tip of her blade thrusting fiercely into the gap between her helmet and armor.

I don't know what this armor is made of. Originally, Unohana wanted to cut the armor and the person in one piece, but she didn't expect that her sword would only leave a shallow mark on the armor.

However, she remained calm, as she had plenty of sword techniques to deal with armor.

No matter how thick the armor, to ensure the wearer's flexibility, there will always be gaps in the neck, joints, and knees. As long as you aim at these areas, winning is only a matter of time.

Arthur was no ordinary man either; he quickly turned around and used his head to block Unohana's sword.

With a loud crash, Arthur was sent flying along with his sword, but he was unharmed, though he felt a little dizzy and lightheaded.

Unohana would never let such a good opportunity slip by. She instantly Flash Step in front of Arthur and thrust her sword fiercely at the joint of his right arm. Even if she couldn't defeat him in one blow, crippling one of his arms would be a victory in itself.

Just as Unohana's sword was about to pierce the enemy's arm, a shield appeared out of thin air in front of her, blocking Unohana's sword.

Unohana missed her attack and immediately retreated.

What kind of ability is this?

The Quincy's bizarre and varied abilities are indeed annoying.

Arthur slowly stood up from the ground. "Originally, I didn't want to use the Knight's Shield against a lady like you. After all, using this equipment is just too cheating; it can automatically appear to block attacks for me. But I'm sorry, I have to obey His Majesty's order to annihilate the enemy!"

Unohana looked at Arthur speechlessly. "How many beatings did you endure as a child? How did you manage to build such thick armor?"

Not content with an indestructible suit of armor, they even created a shield that could automatically block attacks.
