"Boom!"
After the Final Getsuga Tenshō!
Gremmy Thormus, who could copy everything, was finally killed by Getsuga Tenshō!
This was not simply a matter of killing the body that had been transformed by Gremmy Thormu; it was about completely annihilating Gremmy Thormu's original body, his brain!
At this moment, Ichigo Kurosaki has definitely surpassed the limits of Soul Reaper, and is striving to catch up with the being at the pinnacle of this world.
"Ichigo Kurosaki is really amazing~"
"Even compared to me, that's very close."
"If you were just a little bit stronger, you could catch up with me..."
Sōgo Shihoin expressed his acknowledgment of Ichigo Kurosaki's strength, and gently extended two fingers with a small gap between the fingertips, representing the distance between Ichigo Kurosaki and him.
"Hehe..."
Yhwach looked at Sōgo Shihoin with a cold smile; between those tiny fingertips, it seemed as if an entire universe existed.
"The power of fantasy has returned..."
While everyone was still in shock, Yhwach sensed that the power of the Schrift V: The Visionary, which had been residing within Gremmy Tomour's body, had returned to his own.
Yhwach could feel his power increase significantly, but it wasn't enough. Yhwach still didn't have enough confidence to challenge the invincible Sōgo Shihoin. He needed more, much more power!
Yhwach, you lost again!
Sōgo Shihoin looked at Yhwach with a slight smile, signaling yet another major defeat for Yhwach.
"I know!"
Yhwach seemed quite at ease with his defeats. After all, he never really wanted to win; all his failures were simply ways to build strength for the final victory. As the saying goes, failure is the mother of all success!
"I've dispatched so many men, shouldn't you be the one to send out your knights first?!"
Yhwach awaited Yiwen to continue sending knights.
"Then let's send you into battle! Anyway, I'm bored watching you just sit here, right? Mayuri Kurotsuchi!"
To be honest, Sōgo Shihoin had no idea who to send out. He preferred to deal with things as they came. However, since he was asked to send out a knight first, after thinking for a while, Sōgo Shihoin decided to send Mayuri Kurotsuchi out, because Mayuri Kurotsuchi had great confidence in Sōgo Shihoin's strength.
"Snort!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi snorted coldly and stepped forward with some dissatisfaction.
"I don't like fighting in the first place..."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi wearing a huge, mascot-like outfit, with a leader's haori over it. He was expressing his dissatisfaction; he was the only one among them who dared to express his dissatisfaction in front of Sōgo Shihoin.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a very self-centered person. When he's unhappy, he'll speak out, regardless of who's in front of him or whether they're stronger than him!
"That's because you haven't experienced the joy of battle!"
A masked man from the Sternritter looked at Mayuri Kurotsuchi and spoke coldly.
"Oh!?"
"You seem to have a problem with me!?"
"Since you have a problem with me, then come on up!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi beckoned to the Sternritter member wearing a mask on his cheek.
"Say that again to my face if you dare! I'll beat you so badly you'll regret ever being born!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi spoke arrogantly, not caring who the enemy was, because no matter who it was, he would definitely win in the end. He could be that confident, radiating a dazzling confidence at any moment.
"Your Yhwach! Please let me go out! I will secure our first victory!"
The man with the mask on his face spoke earnestly to Yhwach, volunteering for the task!
"Very well! Since you've said so, then I can confidently entrust it to you, Mask do Mask de Masculine..."
Yhwach, Yhwach was just wondering who to send out, immediately announced after hearing the words of the masked man that the fight would be between this guy named Mask do Mask de Masculine, who was dressed like a WWE wrestler or a cosplayer dressed as a bull warrior.
"I, Mask de Masculine, will be your opponent!"
Wearing a mask, a man resembling a sleazy figure named Mask Masculin stood in front of Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine, looking down at Mayuri Kurotsuchi.
Whoever you are!
Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine didn't care about Mask at all. In his eyes, it didn't matter whether it was Musk, Masculin, or whatever else! It didn't matter at all!
"Hehe..."
Mask de Masculine looked at Mayuri Kurotsuchi's arrogant demeanor and sneered, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Please let the audience come on stage!"
Mask de Masculine spoke, he waved his hand and summoned a bald child who held a small golden clock in his hand.
"Go, Lord Mask! You're my idol!"
The little bald man looked at Mask and shouted loudly, constantly supporting Mask de Masculine.
I definitely heard your voice!
"Ha!!"
Upon hearing the bald boy's words of support, Mask de Masculine suddenly roared loudly, his clothes instantly ripped to shreds, revealing his muscular physique.
"This guy..."
The members of Soul Reaper's group immediately changed their expressions upon seeing Mask de Masculine's unsportsmanlike conduct and his plan to fight two against one.
"Hey! Hey! Hey!"
"There are two people now, right!?"
"That's not fair!"
"Shouldn't a fight be one-on-one?"
"If you choose to send two people, can we also send two people?"
Everyone condemned the Quincy's actions, especially since the Soul Reaper had an absolute advantage in numbers, with their Captain-level combat strength more than double that of the enemy!
"This is one of Mask de Masculine's abilities; it appears to be two people but is actually one, so it's not considered a foul!"
Yhwach responded coldly to the dissatisfaction of the Grim Soul Reaper.
"If that's the case, then we all have Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi's abilities, so all of us can play!"
Shunsui Kyōraku adjusted his hat and spoke to Yhwach with a light laugh.
"Of course not..."
Yhwach shook his head, directly rejecting Shunsui Kyōraku's words.
"You bastard..."
Upon hearing this, Ikkaku Madarame and the others immediately became enraged. Since the enemy lacked martial ethics, they had no intention of continuing the match; they wanted to kill Yhwach right there and now!
"Haha..."
However, before anyone could make a move, Mayuri Kurotsuchi burst into laughter.
"That's fine! I think it's pretty good!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi was not at all dissatisfied with the enemy Mask do Mask de Masculine's plan to fight two against one; on the contrary, he was extremely pleased, thinking it was perfect.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi...
Mayuri Kurotsuchi's words startled everyone, and they all looked at Mayuri Kurotsuchi in confusion.
"As long as it's someone I summon with my own abilities, it's not considered a foul, right!?"
"That's right, isn't it! That Bach guy?"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi inquired about the rules of the match from Yhwach.
That's right!
"As long as you can summon the character using your own abilities, then it's naturally in accordance with the rules, but can you really do it?"
Yhwach seemed skeptical of Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mayuri Kurotsuchi, asking him if he could summon characters.
"Sure..."
"That's exactly my forte!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi spoke, activating his 'ability'.
He pulled a handful of miniature capsules from his pocket. The next second, these capsules instantly expanded, transforming into human laughter. Then, as the capsules opened, a chilling aura filled every corner of the room, followed by Menos Grande emerging from the capsules...
These are the Espada Menos Grande that Mayuri Kurotsuchi turned into zombies!
"Did you see that!?"
"That should be considered one of my abilities, right!?"
After summoning a group of Menos Grande, Mayuri Kurotsuchi Yhwach, showing off his abilities and collection.
"..."
Yhwach looked at Mayuri Kurotsuchi's Menos Grande in silence for a moment, offering no reply, which was tantamount to acknowledging Mayuri Kurotsuchi's words.
"Can't you summon people!?"
"Then let's see! Is it your people who are stronger, or the people I summoned?"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine gave Mask a chilling smile, and for a moment, no one knew who the villain and the hero were.
I will defeat you all!
Mask de Masculine was not intimidated by the dozen or so people surrounding Mayuri Kurotsuchi; his muscles bulged, and he seemed brimming with confidence.
"Segunda Etapa: Lock Down, Murciélago!"
However, Ulquiorra, who was being manipulated by Mayuri Kurotsuchi, immediately performed his Segunda Etapa without saying a word!
"Boom!"
The overwhelming Spiritual Pressure transformed into rain and fell from the sky. After his Segunda Etapa, Ulquiorra had reached the pinnacle in both power and speed!
With a whooshing sound, it suddenly rushed towards Mask do Mask de Masculine.
"Very strong!"
Mask do Mask de Masculine felt Ulquiorra's exaggerated speed, his eyes narrowed, and the next second he felt his body sink as Ulquiorra's fist slammed into him.
"But that's not enough to defeat me!"
Mask de Masculine, of course, would not be defeated by someone of this caliber. After all, he was a member of the Sternritter and had received the amplification of Yhwach's power! In a one-on-one situation, he would have an absolute advantage and defeat Ulquiorra Cifer!
Unfortunately, this was never a fair one-on-one match!
Just as Mask de Masculine and Ulquiorra were locked in combat, a crimson Cero flashed past Ulquiorra from behind. The incredibly powerful Cero blasted off Ulquiorra's lower body and then crashed heavily onto Mask do Mask de Masculine's body!
"What!?"
Mask de Masculine never expected the enemy to use such a cruel tactic. Before he could react, his abdomen was pierced through.
Mask de Masculine looked up and saw that the other Menos Grande puppets controlled by Mayuri Kurotsuchi had just performed a combined Cero on him!
"Isn't it just about having more people?!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine looked at Mask, whose abdomen he had pierced, and sneered.
Behind him stood Yylfordt Granz, Yammy Rialgo, Aaroniero Erurueri, Zommari Gilga, Nnoitra Cifer, Ulquiorra Cifer, Gosuke Kenpachi, Kaname Tōsen, Luppi Margera, Wonderweiss Fura, and a host of other Espada who had been obtained from Sōsuke Aizen!
If it's a matter of numbers, Mayuri Kurotsuchi has never been afraid of anyone.
"Great hero, you can't lose!"
Just Mayuri Kurotsuchi that Mask de Masculine was finished, the Miracle occurred with a shout from the bald boy behind Mask de Masculine. Mask de Masculine's body began to heal itself, and in no time, Mask de Masculine stood up unharmed.
"I will not lose!"
"I'm a great hero!"
Mask de Masculine continued to twist his body, displaying astonishing healing power.
"Oh!?"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine was taken aback when he saw the recovered Mask. Now that the battle had progressed this far, Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine had finally begun to develop even a tiny bit of interest in Mask.
"Interesting!"
"This is really interesting..."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi Mask de Masculine muttered to himself, expressing his great interest in Mask Masculin, and how he wanted to preserve him as a specimen and keep him in his office if he could.
"Kaname Tōsen!"
Mayuri Kurotsuchi gently licked his lips and gave the order to Kaname Tōsen.
Bankai! Suzumushi Final Form: Enma Cricket!
Kaname Tōsen drew his Zanpakuto from his waist and softly uttered the words "Bankai".
In an instant, a huge, pitch-black sphere capable of absorbing all light Quincy Mask de Masculine and his little brother!
The moment the black curtain enveloped Mask de Masculine, he felt a chill run down his spine; he knew he was doomed! This black sphere seemed to interfere with one's senses. The instant he entered the Mask object Mask de Masculine, Mask de Masculine felt his five senses being instantly robbed, leaving only touch.
"Hearing, sight, smell, and Spiritual Pressure have all disappeared!"
"Can't even tell which way is which!?"
Mask do Mask de Masculine pondered silently, feeling like a piece of meat on a chopping board, at the mercy of others!
"That thing isn't very big!"
"I should be able to run away..."
Mask de Masculine pondered, deciding to sprint in one direction. If he could escape the area covered by the opponent, he would win!
However, just as Mask de Masculine was about to take action, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body. He still had the ability to feel touch and knew that he had been cut into several pieces in an instant. Moreover, based on his sense of the force, he was certain that it was not the work of one person, but rather that several people swung their knives at the same time and shredded him.
