Bankai / Yhwach: "Why Won't This Guy Die?!"

At least for now, it seems she has succeeded!

Not only was Yhwach successfully stalled, but all of his men were killed, except for a few who were slacking off.

Meanwhile, the last batch of Sternritter were injected with Hollow Particles, making them highly poisonous. After Yhwach absorbed the power of these people, he not only failed to increase his own strength, but also absorbed the Hollow Particles into his body, which were now highly poisonous.

Although the poison wasn't fatal, it did weaken his abilities.

"Little girl, you've deceived the king, and you'll pay the price!" Yhwach raised his hand; with just a slight touch of his palm, the beautiful little girl before him would be crushed into a pulp.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yhwach struck down with his palm.

"Yamabuki!!!"

"Here they come!!!"

The space between Yhwach and Hane Hane Chiyo fluctuated violently, and the next second, Yamabuki Chidori appeared between them.

Yhwach's eyes truly showed shock, but that didn't stop him from killing!

With a single palm strike, he aimed to annihilate both men before him!

Yamabuki Chidori's arm Shunkō coalesced, and she threw a backhand punch!

Fist and palm collided, Reiatsu like a hurricane, and an explosive sound came from beneath their feet. The ground within a radius of twenty meters beneath Yamabuki Chidori's feet sank by half a meter under Yhwach's palm!

"Ah!!!" Hane Hane Chiyo let out a terrified scream.

"Bang!!!"

Yamabuki Chidori kicked upwards with her right toe, hitting Yhwach's arm squarely. Yhwach withdrew his hand expressionlessly, and Yamabuki Chidori quickly retreated while holding Hane Hane Chiyo.

Hane Hane Chiyo was drenched in cold sweat; she herself hadn't expected to survive under such circumstances!

"The mission was completed very well! Now find a safe place to hide immediately! Leave the rest to me," said Yamabuki Chidori.

Hane Hane Chiyo had been waiting for these words; the moment her feet touched the ground, she ran off without looking back.

Yhwach completely ignored Hane Hane Chiyo and instead stared coldly at Yamabuki Chidori. This young man was not to be underestimated, as he had managed to strike him with a palm.

"Young man, state your name," Yhwach said coldly.

"Chief Strategist Gotei 13, Yamabuki Chidori."

Yhwach nodded slightly. "No wonder my useless subordinates suffered such a crushing defeat. I didn't expect Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto to have a talent like you among his men. Let's go somewhere else!"

Yhwach turned slightly and shot into the sky at an incredible speed.

Yamabuki Chidori knew that the entire Seireitei was now filled with Hollow Particles, and it would be very unwise for a Quincy to fight in such an environment. Yhwach was extremely fast and had already arrived dozens of kilometers away in the blink of an eye. Yamabuki Chidori was in hot pursuit behind him. The ultimate goal of this war was to eliminate Yhwach.

As long as Yhwach doesn't die, the Wandenreich will be rebuilt in no time, so it's pointless.

The two ran one after the other for about ten minutes, arriving at a wasteland hundreds of kilometers away.

Yhwach landed firmly on his feet, with Yamabuki Chidori following steadily behind him.

After they arrived at their destination, Yamabuki Chidori took out a Hell Butterfly and said, "Captain Commander, Yhwach and I are 350 kilometers south of Rukongai. Please come to our aid as quickly as possible."

Yamamoto's voice came from within the Hell Butterfly: "Hold him off. How long can you hold him off?"

Yamabuki Chidori herself wasn't entirely sure, and after a moment's hesitation, she said, "Ten minutes. Ten minutes shouldn't be a problem. If you're not here in ten minutes, prepare to collect my corpse."

"Don't worry, I'll be there in ten minutes," Yamamoto said.

"Smack!"

The Hell Butterfly flying in mid-air suddenly exploded. Yamabuki Chidori glanced at Yhwach out of the corner of her eye. Yhwach withdrew his finger. "Young man, this kind of mentality won't work. True strongmen understand the principle of 'survival through desperate measures.' You'll never become a true strongman if you keep looking for a way out."

Yamabuki Chidori remained silent. If she could stall for ten minutes, the Captain Commander would come to her aid.

"Yhwach!" Yamabuki Chidori gripped his Zanpakuto. It was impossible for him not to be excited; he had waited for this day for a very, very long time!

"Reverse it, Silver Radiant Angel!"

A silver-white Zanpakuto appeared in Yamabuki Chidori's hand.

With a casual wave of his hand, Yhwach conjured countless Reishi into a greatsword. This greatsword was exceptionally dazzling, like the Milky Way in the sky!

Yamabuki Chidori has adjusted her power to its peak; her Reiatsu, physical condition, and mental state have all reached their zenith!

Thinking about all the suffering I've endured over the past six months, all the beatings I've taken! Wasn't it all for this battle today?

The knife is drawn!

The silver sword light ripped through the void, cutting through space itself. This invincible sword strike caused Yhwach's pupils to contract!

Unstoppable!

This was Yhwach's first thought!

It's not because Yamabuki Chidori's strength surpasses Yhwach's, but because the damage from her Spatial-type abilities is simply too high!

Yhwach vanished from his spot in an instant, a silvery-white sword light slicing through his body, and the mountain behind him was cleaved in two by a Yhwach, diagonal strike!

Yhwach's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but even more so, excitement!

The strength of the boy before him far exceeded his expectations!

"Good! Very good!" Yhwach pointed his left hand to the sky, and a huge Holy Spirit Arrow appeared, hurtling towards Yamabuki Chidori.

"Flash Blossom!"

With her feet moving at high speed, the Silver Radiant Angel Yamabuki Chidori into a devastating silver-red streak, splitting the Holy Spirit Arrow in two. At the same time, Yamabuki Chidori rushed toward Yhwach at an even faster speed!

It can work!

The difference in strength between him and Yhwach isn't as big as I thought!

Yamabuki Chidori's blood was boiling!

And wasn't Yhwach also filled with passion?

The Spirit Greatsword, infused with pure black Reiatsu, slashed down on the Silver Radiant Angel!

The Reiatsu from both the black and white paths pierced through the clouds and soared straight into the heavens!

The mountain behind them was shattered by the powerful and domineering force of these two!

Chapter 293: Bankai

Yhwach and Yamabuki Chidori retreated quickly, but as soon as their feet touched the ground, they charged at each other again.

"Space Erasure!" Yamabuki Chidori the Silver Radiant Angel in her hand, and all the space within a radius of a thousand meters was eliminated. Yhwach, however, sensed it in advance and used his Hirenkyaku to get into the air.

"The ability to tear through space? That's certainly troublesome," Yhwach muttered to himself, but wasn't this even more interesting? Finally, he had an opponent who could stand up to him head-on.

Yamabuki Chidori mastered all the sword techniques she had learned, and her sword slashed wildly at Yhwach like a storm.

The two swords clashed in mid-air, creating a series of sparks, and the aftershocks of their Reiatsu made the surrounding space tremble.

"Yhwach! Die, you son of a bitch!!!" Yamabuki Chidori stabbed at Yhwach's face with her sword. Just as Yhwach was about to block, Yamabuki Chidori vanished into thin air in front of him.

Yhwach glanced back slightly, and in the instant he drew his sword, Yamabuki Chidori used Spatial Movement to appear behind Yhwach, her blade aimed at Yhwach's back.

Yhwach sneered. "Boy, let me show you just how big the gap is between us!"

The Silver Radiant Angel successfully pierced Yhwach's back, but Yamabuki Chidori's expression was extremely grim, because he discovered that his blade could not penetrate Yhwach's Blut Vene defense.

The knife tip had barely pierced Yhwach's skin before it could go any deeper.

"Young man, I admit you are very strong, but the gap between our strength is not what you imagine." Yhwach swung his palm back, and black Reiatsu formed Reiatsu Torrent instantly engulfed Yamabuki Chidori's body.

Almost simultaneously, a torrent of black Reiatsu Torrent like a black hole, devouring a large chunk of the earth behind Yamabuki Chidori.

Yhwach calmly withdrew his hand. What a pity; was this already the limit for this young man?

Yhwach sighed; he had wanted to invite the boy to join the Wandenreich, but now it seemed the opportunity was gone.

"Oh dear! As expected, using Shikai to deal with you, the Emperor of the Wandenreich, is still too much of a strain." Yamabuki Chidori's voice came from the sky. Yhwach didn't seem too surprised and just quietly looked at Yamabuki Chidori.

"You dodged into the sky the instant you were hit by the torrent? That's a quick reaction. But you should know how vast the gap is between us. The destruction of Soul Society is a foregone conclusion; there's no point in struggling. Young man, how about becoming my subordinate?" Yhwach asked.

Yamabuki Chidori never expected that the other party would extend an olive branch to her at this time, wanting to invite her to join the Wandenreich! I really am a talent! Captain Commander, did you see that? If you don't give me a raise, I'm switching jobs.

Cough cough cough!

"My goal is simple: to create a world without birth or death, so that no one will fear death. Wouldn't it be wonderful to live in such a beautiful world? Why doesn't anyone understand me? Even my own men. They think I don't know their ridiculous ideas?" Yhwach extended his hand to Yamabuki Chidori: "Yamabuki Chidori, join me, and I can give you power and status second only to me, leading you to witness the pioneering of a new era. How about it?"

Yamabuki Chidori gave a very helpless smile, "I'm sorry. I'm quite satisfied with my life right now, so, Bankai!"

"Flowers Bloom in an Instant, Fleeting Splendor! Scarlet Angel!"

The sword in Yamabuki Chidori's hand transformed into two, one flashing with a scarlet light, and the other flashing with a silvery-white light.

After receiving Yamabuki Chidori's answer, Yhwach sighed regretfully, "I thought you were different from others, but now it seems your vision is just as short-sighted. I heard that the Bankai can increase power tenfold? Hmph, the power difference between you and me is too great. Even if you multiply one by ten, it still won't be enough to overcome my original power of ten thousand. Come on, boy, I'll show you what true power is!"

Yamabuki Chidori quietly watched Yhwach brag.

There is indeed a gap in strength between the two, but it's definitely not as vast as Yhwach claims.

"So what if you Bankai? I'm standing right here, you can't even hurt a hair on my head," Yhwach shouted.

"Is that so? The Asura Third Sword!" Yamabuki Chidori's body became erratic, Yhwach vaguely saw that Yamabuki Chidori's figure had become two, launching an attack at the same time.

"Hmm? A clone ability? That's ridiculous. Once you create a clone, your own power will also be split in two." Yhwach grabbed the sword of the left Yamabuki Chidori with his left hand, while his right hand used the Spirit Greatsword to block the sword of the right Yamabuki Chidori.

"That's it?" Yhwach looked at Yamabuki Chidori with some disappointment. He had originally thought that Yamabuki Chidori would have some kind of magical power after his Bankai, but now it seemed that he had overestimated the boy in front of him.

"I already told you, even if I stand here without moving, you can't hurt a single hair on my head..." Yhwach hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower back. Startled, Yhwach quickly turned around, but there was nothing behind him.

"How could this be!" Yhwach realized for the first time that things were out of his control. In desperation, he unleashed a torrent of black Reiatsu Torrent from his left hand. Yamabuki Chidori quickly retreated and stood at a distance, watching Yhwach with a smile.

Then, with a gentle flick of the Scarlet Angel, a string of blood droplets flew from the sword.

Yhwach's former composure was gone, replaced by a raging fury like that of a lion.

However, he suppressed this rage deep inside.

"It seems I underestimated you. Your ability isn't a clone at all; it's time manipulation, isn't it? Attacking from three completely different points in time is indeed difficult to defend against. Young man, I take back what I just said," Yhwach said in a deep voice.

He bragged about it and got slapped in the face right away, and the slap was resounding! That must have hurt a lot!

Controlling spacetime! That ability is just too outrageous!

It feels just as impressive as my own All-Knowing All-Powerful and omnipotence!

With a single, decisive stroke, the Yamabuki Chidori gained immense confidence.

"The Flow of Time!"

Time accelerated, Yamabuki Chidori's body became incredibly fast, even surpassing Yhwach's perception.

"So fast!" Yhwach's pupils contracted.

"Space Severance!"

Yamabuki Chidori's body swept past Yhwach, Yhwach face turned pale. At the same time, one of his arms flew into the air, spun twice, and fell to the ground.

Chapter 294: Yhwach: "How come this guy is so hard to kill?!"

Yhwach was pale and glared angrily. He never expected that Yamabuki Chidori could cause him such great harm.

His arm was severed while he was still alive!

Yhwach swung his sword backhand, the intense Sword Pressure tearing the earth apart. However, Yamabuki Chidori didn't engage him head-on; instead, she Teleportation away instantly.

"The Quincy King is nothing more than this!" Yamabuki Chidori stared coldly at the formidable enemy before her.

Yhwach's severed left arm whispered, "Self-Grant, left arm."

What happened next greatly shocked Yamabuki Chidori.

Yhwach's left arm, which had been completely severed, was miraculously healed completely, as if it had never been severed at all.

Yamabuki Chidori suddenly recalled the scene of Yhwach and Ichibē Hyōsube's battle.

The Monk used his ability to erase names to remove half of Yhwach's power and also took away Yhwach's voice. However, Yhwach used his "Self-Grant" ability to easily heal his voice and regain the power that had been taken from him.

"Besides being All-Knowing All-Powerful, does he also possess such a troublesome ability?" Yamabuki Chidori's slightly joyful mood was instantly dashed.

"Young man, you can't be distracted on the battlefield!" Yhwach's voice came from behind Yamabuki Chidori. Yamabuki Chidori's pupils contracted. He hadn't expected that just by thinking about Yhwach's abilities for a moment, he would be caught off guard.

Yhwach didn't give Yamabuki Chidori a chance to turn around. The Spirit Greatsword in his hand was like the Ea, Sword of Rupture that tore the world apart, cleaving through the starry sky and mercilessly slashing at Yamabuki Chidori's shoulder.

The black Reiatsu directly devoured half of Yamabuki Chidori's body!
