Soul King.
What is the Soul King?
The Soul King is the wedge of the Three Realms. If the Soul Society, the real world, and the Hueco Mundo are each compared to a piece of wood, then the Soul King is the nail that fixes the three boards.
This is the Soul King, the most important existence in maintaining the balance of the Three Realms. Such a person deserves supreme respect, but now, the Soul King looks horrible.
With its limbs cut off and its internal organs emptied out, it has been sitting here alone for millions of years, or perhaps even longer.
For a physically and mentally healthy person, this is simply the greatest torture in the world.
"Young man, do you want to be the new Soul King?" The Soul King's voice reached Yamabuki's mind, and Yamabuki's back was covered in cold sweat.
Only a fool wants to be the Soul King! I don't want to be a human stick! If you want to retire so badly, I will find your son for you. Yhwach will definitely replace you as the most outstanding Soul King.
"Absolutely not." Yamabuki shouted at the top of his voice in his heart.
"Are you scared by my appearance?" The Soul King's voice sounded very gentle, like an elder looking at his junior.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm!" Yamabuki nodded frantically. He knew very well his own worth. If he sat in this position on the first day, he would be chopped into a human stick by Ichibe Hyosube outside the door on the second day. A soul king who cannot speak is a good soul king.
"I'm just a small vice-captain of the Gotei 13. Why are you looking for me? If everything is fine, I'll leave first. Bye, I hope we never see each other again." Yamabuki took his hand away, took two steps back, and, after making sure that the Soul King would not hurt him, he prepared to push the door and leave.
Just as Yamabuki was about to leave, the Soul King's voice appeared in his mind again: "You will die. Soon, there will be an unprecedented catastrophe in Soul Society, and you will die in that catastrophe."
Yamabuki had his hand on the door, but when he heard Soul King's words, he suddenly paused.
The catastrophe that will happen soon is, of course, the invasion of the Quincies. As the chief of staff of the Gotei 13, I will definitely join the battle. Could it be that...
"You will die at the hands of the Quincy King, Yhwach." The Soul King's voice remained calm, and he had already seen through the past and future of the world.
Yamabuki clenched his fists tightly and turned around stiffly. He didn't think that the Soul King would lie to him. As a person who knew the past and the future, there was no need to waste time on an eighteen-year-old boy.
Moreover, the Soul King possesses the most powerful ability in the entire world, he is omniscient and omnipotent.
In other words, the Soul King has used his omniscience to foresee the future war, and he will die at the hands of Yhwach.
"I believe that I am definitely not the only one who died in that catastrophe. Why did you choose me?" Yamabuki asked, suppressing his excitement.
This war between Soul Society and the Quincies will definitely result in the deaths of many people, but why did the Soul King find me?
"A million years ago, I had seen through all the future. I thought all the changes in this world were under my control, except for your arrival." The Soul King said, "You are the only person I missed. The moment you arrived in this world, the world line changed irreversibly. Your existence is very important to this world. At least you can't die now."
Yamabuki felt cold all over. Could it be that the Soul King had seen through his identity as a time traveler? This was too outrageous!
"Are you trying to tell me how to survive that war?" asked Yamabuki.
"No, there is no way. I see all the possibilities. All the endings are the same. You will die before dawn," said the Soul King.
Yamabuki felt like he was falling into an icy cave. He was only eighteen years old, and death was too far away for him. But now, he felt that the god of death was standing behind him, with the scythe pointed at his neck, and his head would fall off at any time.
It felt so hopeless.
Even though we know that life has an end, we still feel reluctant when we are about to reach it.
Yamabuki took two deep breaths to calm himself down: "If this is what you want to say to me, thank you. I'm going back. Everyone will die one day. The biggest characteristic of me is that I don't believe in fate."
He used to think that those who shouted "My fate is in my own hands" had their brains squeezed by a door, but when fate really came upon him, he also wanted to shout "My fate is in my own hands."
Can people really resist fate?
What is destiny?
"Are you going back? No one has talked to me for a long time." The Soul King said gently.
Yamabuki said nothing and walked forward silently.
"If I tell you that I can help you survive, will you stay and chat with me for a while longer?" asked the Soul King.
"Fuck! Why didn't you tell me earlier? I knew you would have a way to solve it. You are the omniscient and omnipotent Soul King!" Yamabuki ran over in an instant and looked at the Soul King with a smile.
"The only way to survive is to improve your own strength. Before that catastrophe comes, you must have the power to fight against Yhwach," said the Soul King.
Yhwach!
Son of the Soul King.
Although the Quincy abilities he possessed were strong, they were not so strong that others were helpless.
What is really a headache is The Almighty.
An invincible force that can change the future.
Looking at the entire world of death, there is no other power except Kyōka Suigetsu that can affect The Almighty.
Without this invincible power, Yhwach might not even be able to pass the level of Ichibe Hyosube.
But as soon as he opened his eyes, Ichibei Hyōshubu, who had controlled Soul Society for a million years, was killed before he could even hold on for three seconds.
"You mean that I should train hard and become stronger before the war comes?" Yamabuki asked curiously.
"If it were really that simple, this wouldn't be a situation where death is inevitable. There's no time left. No matter how much you practice, you can't gain the power to contend with Yhwach before the war comes. However, I have a shortcut. Are you willing to try it?" asked the Soul King.
Yamabuki has read the Bleach comics and knows too well the horror of "The Almighty".
Ichigo Kurosaki's Three-in-One Shin Bankai can kill anyone in seconds, but in front of the Almighty, he can't even cut a single blow. The blade of his sword breaks at will, showing no dignity at all.
If Aizen had not successfully hypnotized Yhwach with Kyoka Suigetsu in the end, causing him to take all the damage, Ichigo, who was not in full condition at the time, might have been killed instantly a second time.
If you want to survive at the hands of Yhwach, you must find a way to break Yhwach's The Almighty.
Aizen used his actions to tell everyone that there is no truly invincible The Almighty in this world is trash compared to the invincible Kyōka Suigetsu .
