Baraggan's strength has stood the test of time!
Especially after obtaining the power of Sōgo Shihoin!
He became unstoppable, his strength increasing by leaps and bounds, reaching an even higher and stronger level!
"Most people in this world are stupid!"
"Most of them who challenge me are like ants!"
"I have to admit you're not an ant, but do you think you can stop me with your strength?!"
Baraggan continuously unleashes its corrosive power, a powerful force that transcends all things, a force that all matter must abide by!
In the face of time...
Matter, life, everything is meaningless!
Everything will eventually shatter before this powerful force!
"Hateful..."
The fake Yhwach is indeed very powerful; his power is a complete copy of the real Yhwach's, but...
What's fake is fake; it's not real!
The power of the false Yhwach is far too weak compared to that of the real Yhwach.
Just like the difference between a grain of light and the full moon, this fundamental difference also means that the false Yhwach cannot resist the power of time like the Almighty Yhwach...
"Asshole..."
"You're not just a Menos Grande, are you? How come you're so powerful!?"
The fake Yhwach asked a question. He couldn't understand why Baraggan, who was just a Menos Grande, could display such astonishing power, a power that completely surpassed that of the ordinary Sternritter!
Perhaps those knights at the pinnacle of the Sternritter could find a way to withstand Baraggan, but that doesn't include him...
He was too weak; even if he copied Yhwach, he still couldn't change the fact that he was inherently weak.
"Hateful..."
The fake Yhwach wanted to further increase his power, but the power of the letters within his body was not that strong.
Power is power...
No matter how powerful the Quincy are, they cannot surpass the level of their Spiritual Pressure.
Even with his Spiritual Pressure restricted, he, as Quincy, was still unable to break the curse.
Kneel down before me!
"Before the great Hueco Mundo Emperor!"
Baraggan looked at the fake Yhwach, who was subdued by his Spiritual Pressure, smiled, and extended his hand.
"I won't stop here..."
That fake Yhwach roared!
The Spiritual Pressure within his body reached a peak...
"Boom!"
A terrifying power erupted from his body as flames!
"Go to hell!"
The fake Yhwach drew his bow.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
One after another, Reishi Bow were fired at Baraggan.
"Null!"
The terrifying Reishi Bow ripped through the air, tearing through the Reishi Bow and igniting flames!
However, before these terrifying arrows could even reach Baraggan, they were reduced to nothingness by the opponent's decaying power!
"Weak!"
"Powerless!"
You're like a little mouse!
Baraggan looked at the fake Yhwach and burst out laughing.
"Hahaha..."
Baraggan burst into laughter.
"A guy like you should just die right here!"
Baraggan spoke softly, pronouncing the verdict on the false Yhwach.
"Asshole..."
The false Yhwach refused to accept his fate and decided to fight with all his might for one last time.
"The final power!! Open your the Almighty eyes!"
The fake Yhwach roared, determined to use his last strength, his every ounce of power, and his very life to make this final stand.
The terrifying Spiritual Pressure crushed everything in an instant. As the Spiritual Pressure Spiritual Pressure continued to rise, it surpassed the level of an ordinary Soul Reaper Captain-level in an instant. ("Don't look, it's me! It's me, Kensei Muguruma!" Kensei Muguruma, who had already been recognized as the strongest captain in history and the gatekeeper of Captain-level Spiritual Pressure, said in despair.)
The Spiritual Pressure continued to rise, instantly surpassing the Captain-level, then a century-old captain, and then the limit of Soul Reaper...
Then, with a deafening roar, the fake Yhwach transformed into a brilliant firework and exploded in the air!
"..."
Baraggan stared in disbelief at the scene before him, puzzled. Had the enemy simply self-destructed?!
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Suddenly, Baraggan burst into loud laughter.
"Too weak!"
Baraggan watched the self-destructing fake Yhwach, never expecting the enemy to exit in such an amusing way.
"I thought you guys were going to use some kind of special ability, but it turns out it was just a fireworks display?!"
"This is absolutely hilarious..."
Baraggan had never seen such an interesting scene.
" Yhwach, what are your thoughts as you watch your subordinates self-destruct?!"
Baraggan floated in the sky, asking Yhwach a question.
"Your strongest subordinate, with the exact same face as you, then vanished without a trace in a flash, hahaha... I'm dying of laughter! I've lived for who knows how long, and I feel like my whole life was just to witness this moment! How hilarious!"
Baraggan scoffed at Yhwach, his eyes fixed on Yhwach's face, hoping to see something interesting. But after staring at Yhwach for a while, he simply shook his head in boredom, for he saw nothing he wanted on Yhwach 'Yhwach face; the other's cheeks were as cold as a frozen, bluish stone slab in winter.
"..."
Yhwach looked at Baraggan coldly, as if he were looking at a clown. In his eyes, Baraggan, this so-called Emperor of Hueco Mundo, was no different from a clown.
"How boring..."
After staring at Yhwach's face for a while, Baraggan grew bored, shook his head, returned to Sōgo Shihoin's side, and stood in the crowd, silently waiting for the boring match to end.
"Let's begin the next battle Sōgo Shihoin!"
Yhwach ignored the unpleasantness Baraggan had caused him. He could already feel the power of the deceased Yhwach entering his body. Now his power had been further enhanced, moving towards the ultimate form. It wasn't long before all the power he had released returned. The moment all the power returned would be the moment of his final battle with Sōgo Shihoin.
"A new battle is coming, I'm going to make it a bit interesting..."
Yhwach smiled, knowing that Sōgo Shihoin was also getting bored, so he decided to cater to his tastes and do something that Sōgo Shihoin liked.
" Bambietta Bastabai, this battle is yours!"
" Sōgo Shihoin, let's have a battle between beautiful flowers!"
"I will send out the most beautiful flowers of our Quincy side to fight against the beautiful flowers of your Soul Reaper side."
Yhwach unilaterally decided that Bambietta Basta would participate in the battle, knowing that Sōgo Shihoin, that jerk, loved nothing more than girls fighting each other!
"Um?!"
Sōgo Shihoin brightened up upon hearing this.
"That's a good idea!"
Sōgo Shihoin smiled slightly, revealing a happy expression.
Which man doesn't enjoy watching beautiful young women battle it out?!
Especially close-quarters wrestling! Beautiful girls wrestling with each other, the way they unleash their youthful energy is absolutely amazing.
Sōgo Shihoin's favorite battle to date has to be the jujitsu fight between Nelliel and Tier Harribel. It was a battle between hearts, like surging waves colliding and crashing against each other, creating a series of sounds...
"Tsk tsk tsk~"
Sōgo Shihoin wore an expression of deep satisfaction.
" Lilynette, go and fight that beautiful girl named Bambietta Bastia!"
After selecting from his own team, Sōgo Shihoin finally chose Lilynette, a super fighter who had fought the opponent once without a clear winner.
"Very good."
Lilynette is a very competitive person. She still vividly remembers her previous battle with Bambietta Bastabayne, and the fact that she couldn't determine a winner with Bambietta Bastabayne is making her somewhat irritated!
"Forehead..."
Compared to Lilynette's burning fighting spirit, Bambieta Bastabayne was somewhat fearful. She remembered her battle with Lilynette and knew that her enemy was the strongest woman she had ever encountered. Facing Lilynette, Bambieta had no chance of winning.
"Go Little Bambietta! (_)"
In the Quincy ranks, Giselle kept encouraging Bambietta Bastabayne, her not-so-naive eyes flashing with malice, as if she could already see Bambietta Bastabayne being torn to pieces by the enemy.
"You bastard..."
She wore a military cap with an Wandenreich symbol, had alluring long hair that reached past her waist, wore a miniskirt, a small heart-shaped badge on her chest, a heart-shaped belt, and black stockings and boots.
Bambietta Bastabayne, exuding an allure to men and considered the most beautiful woman in the Sternritter, glared at her companion.
"You bunch of bastards are just laughing at me, aren't you?!"
"You think I'm definitely going to lose, right!?"
"Hahaha, I admit it's really hard for me to win, but don't think you'll have it easy either. You'll all be dead soon, and I'll be waiting for you down there."
Bambietta Bastabain glared fiercely at her companions. She was furious. There was no such thing as affection among Quincy; competition, suspicion, and jealousy festered among them. Now that it was her turn, these damned guys were just watching her make a fool of herself...
"It's alright, Little Bambietta ~"
"I won't let someone as cute as you die~"
Sōgo Shihoin smiled slightly at Bambietta. He was a benevolent and talent-appreciating person. When he saw someone as talented as Bambietta, he would usually feel a lust for her. After all, big is justice, big is right, big people are everything! Small people are heretics, and liking small people is abnormal. Sōgo Shihoin was a very self-centered person; if he didn't like someone, then everyone else should dislike them too—his double standards were outrageous...
"..."
Although Sōgo Shihoin was only thinking what was on his mind, for some reason, Shaoling Fon suddenly sensed something. She felt that Sōgo Shihoin was definitely thinking about bad things. Her gaze sharpened. "So what if it's small? This kind of thing doesn't need to be big, okay? The shape is important, the shape is the most important! Isn't it good enough that it can be held in one hand?"
"Okay! Except for the Little Fon Fon!"
Sōgo Shihoin seemed to sense a murderous aura, and he spoke with a smile.
" Sōgo, what extremely rude thing were you thinking just now?!"
Shaoling Fon, who was previously unsure, immediately became certain, and she looked at Sōgo Shihoin angrily.
"Let's begin a new round of competition!"
Sōgo Shihoin tried to change the subject.
" Sōgo, please answer my question first, okay? What were you thinking just now? Please answer me..."
Shaoling Fon had somehow crept up behind Sōgo Shihoin. She pulled Sōgo Shihoin by the neck, gently stroking it, and asked him in a soft voice as she did so.
Hehehe...
Sōgo Shihoin's eye twitched slightly. He was only thinking about it in his mind; was it now even forbidden to think about it in his mind?!
That's really going too far...
Sōgo Shihoin wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say at that moment.
In short, when faced with a situation where he should say something but doesn't know what to say, Sōgo Shihoin chooses silence as the best policy.
Silence is best...
Remaining silent is a great virtue of humankind. When we don't know what to say, we can choose to say nothing at all.
" Sōgo Shihoin..."
"Come on! Let's begin a new round of battle!"
Yhwach seemed to notice Sōgo Shihoin's current predicament, and he loudly announced the start of a new round of matches.
"Hmph! Since you can't wait any longer, let's begin our game~"
While Sōgo Shihoin outwardly expressed his disdain for Yhwach, he secretly gave Yhwach a thumbs-up in his heart. Yhwach timely interjection was an expression of his goodwill and praise.
"Let me see what you're made of!"
Sōgo Shihoin waved his hand, announcing the start of the match.
" Bambietta Basta pays her respects..."
"That's its name, right?!"
"Hurry up and come here~ I can't wait to tear you to pieces..."
In Lilynette's eyes, dealing with Quincy like Bambietta was far too easy.
"Damn it! Do you really think you can beat me?!"
"You forced me to do this... so I'll just have to be a little more serious then."
Bambietta, no matter what, was still very concerned about her image. Lilynette's words made her lose face, even though she couldn't actually beat Lilynette in a fight, she couldn't afford to lose in a verbal exchange...
