After the battle of Karakura Town and the battle of Hueco Mundo, today was the third time Yamamoto had lost his arm.
His arm was truly miserable.
At every turn, it was his arm that was destroyed. His enemies never seemed interested in attacking anywhere else, as though his arm had somehow become the most unfortunate part of his body.
After severing Yamamoto's arm, Yhwach did not immediately continue his attack.
Instead, he held the star medallion in his hand and silently sensed the Bankai that had now been taken from his old opponent. The more he sensed it, the more difficult it was to conceal the admiration in his eyes.
"It is a truly powerful Bankai…"
This was praise that came from the bottom of his heart.
Thousands of years ago, Yamamoto's Bankai had once made him feel the breath of death.
At that time, he had been fortunate enough to survive.
He had never imagined that, after thousands of years, Yamamoto would actually go even further on the foundation of an already terrifying Bankai and refine its power to an entirely new level.
Previously, Royd Lloyd had imitated him, and his memories and abilities were generally very similar to Yhwach's own. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Yamamoto to misjudge the situation and directly release Bankai.
Yhwach had no doubt that Yamamoto Genryūsai's final strike, Zanka no Tachi, Kita: Tenchi Kaijin, could truly kill him.
"Unfortunately, after all, he is just a reckless man!"
Deep down, Yhwach was also disdainful of Yamamoto.
He possessed tremendous power, but he had no scheming to match it.
That was Yhwach's opinion of Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni.
A thousand years ago, Yamamoto had clearly possessed enough strength to kill him truly. Yet because he saw the destruction of the Soul Society, he felt pity and voluntarily stopped, allowing Yhwach's chance for revival.
Because of that hesitation, the remaining quincy were able to take away his "corpse".
If Yamamoto had been more ruthless at that time and directly destroyed his "corpse", then even if Yhwach was the ancestor of the quincies and the son of the Soul King, there was no way he could have been resurrected.
A thousand years later, although Yamamoto's strength was greater than it had been a thousand years ago, there had been no corresponding change in his intelligence.
Otherwise, the best plan would have been to release his Bankai directly and get rid of him, avoiding more hassles and ending the battle immediately.
But the Wandenreich had been preparing for a thousand years, and their true purpose had never been to capture the Seireitei.
How could they possibly give Yamamoto such a good opportunity?
After all, he was an old opponent who had defeated him once before, so Yhwach naturally wanted to test the true depth of Yamamoto's strength first.
In Yhwach's view, after outwitting Yamamoto and taking away his Bankai, he had already won.
And, in the end, the result proved that he was right.
Yhwach raised his hand and condensed a long sword made from reishi.
After losing Bankai, Yamamoto was no longer an opponent for him.
Holding the sword, Yhwach drew an arc through the air.
A huge bow and arrow appeared along the trajectory.
The arrow fell toward the ground and transformed into a massive blade of light, heading toward Yamamoto with terrifying momentum.
Losing his Bankai, Yamamoto used Ryūjin Jakka to unleash a slash of fierce flames.
Against ordinary enemies, this slash was undoubtedly powerful.
But against an opponent of Yhwach's level, it was far too weak.
For Yhwach, the only thing Yamamoto could use to truly harm him was probably the power of his Bankai.
But right now, he no longer had Zanka no Tachi.
The flames were extinguished.
As the large-scale Heilig Pfeil was about to fall upon Yamamoto, Yamamoto himself felt the approach of death and lowered his eyes somewhat unwillingly.
BOOM!!
After his arm was severed, half of his body was severed as well.
Even so, his eyes remained wide open, and he continued standing on the ground like a green pine.
"Oh?"
"Not dead yet?"
Yhwach was somewhat surprised and had to lament the tenacity of Yamamoto Genryūsai's tenacity.
The reishi long sword in his hand dissipated. Reishi condensed at his fingertips as he prepared to deliver the final blow to the dying Yamamoto Genryūsai.
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded.
"Getsuga Tenshō!!"
A crescent-shaped black slash flew toward Yhwach.
At the same time, the spiritual attack released by Yhwach was blocked by a crimson shield.
A black Garganta quietly closed.
Several figures sprang out from it.
After Kurosaki Ichigo appeared, he immediately attacked Yhwach.
Urahara Kisuke maintained the crimson shield behind his Shikai, blocking Yhwach's attack.
Sado Yasutora supported the remaining half of Yamamoto's body, while Inoue Orihime immediately cast Sōten Kisshun, attempting to help Yamamoto recover from his injuries.
Although Yamamoto was seriously injured and half of his body had been chopped off by Yhwach, he was not dead.
As long as there was still a glimmer of life, there was a possibility of rescue.
Orihime spared no effort in expending her spiritual power, doing everything she could to heal Yamamoto's injuries.
…
"What a surprise!"
Yhwach crushed the Getsuga Tenshō released by Kurosaki Ichigo with a single blow.
Looking at the few people who had appeared before him, he couldn't help but sigh.
Before the Wandenreich launched its all-out attack on the Soul Society, Yhwach had identified a total of six Special War Potentials.
Aizen Sōsuke corresponded to "Reiatsu".
He's the epitome of the so-called principle of one power overwhelming ten techniques meant that any skill would have to bow before overwhelmingly powerful reiatsu.
Previously, he had tried to recruit Aizen, but failed.
And among the few people who had appeared before him now, there were two more Special War Potentials.
Urahara Kisuke corresponded to "Unknown Means".
He could use endless unknown means to solve all kinds of problems and difficulties cleanly and efficiently.
Of course, what caught his attention the most was Kurosaki Ichigo, who was attacking him from the front.
Kurosaki Ichigo corresponded to "Potential".
He possessed the possibility of unpredictable evolution, so he had to be eliminated first.
Ichigo brandished Tensa Zangetsu and attacked him again.
A trace of cruelty flashed through Yhwach's eyes.
In an instant, Ichigo's blade descended toward him, only for Yhwach to catch Tensa Zangetsu with his bare hand.
"What?!"
Ichigo was startled.
Then something happened that made him even more astonished.
He pulled the blade vigorously, trying to wrench it free, but it remained completely unmoved.
Yhwach suddenly exerted force with his palm.
CRACK!
Tensa Zangetsu broke immediately.
Yhwach then held the severed half of the blade and casually swung it.
Ichigo was struck hard and fell from the air.
"Your strength is not enough!"
"My son, born in darkness!"
Seeing Ichigo, who had been struck hard in an instant, Yhwach said a sentence that shocked him.
Then, his eyes fell on Kisuke, who had already prepared everything.
"Although I really want to recruit you, it seems that you don't want to work under me. It's a pity."
During the time when he was fighting with Ichigo, Kisuke had not only blocked Yhwach's attack with the crimson shield but had also completed a Kidō chant, and using that same time, he had carried out the spatial transfer of the three figures: Yamamoto, Orihime, and Sado.
At this moment, the three of them had disappeared from the battlefield.
