Just as the two sides were talking, Saitō swung his sword again. Although it was blocked by Momo with an iron chain, her own body was also blown away by the huge force. She rolled and crawled into the ruins, looking very embarrassed.
"Go to hell!" Saitō didn't give the other party a chance to breathe. He raised his sword to chop off the woman's head, but at this moment, a huge figure loomed over from behind her. Saitō felt that the danger was approaching and turned back as fast as he could. He saw a giant strong man with a height of two meters rushing towards him with a big laugh.
Punch instantly!
The wind arrived before the fist arrived.
Saitō immediately drew his sword to protect himself and blocked the opponent's fist with the blade but was still blown away by the huge force of the fist. However, compared to Momo, Saitō kept spinning in mid-air to relieve the force and finally landed steadily on the ground, unharmed.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much! Your sword is so sharp!" Although the burly man knocked Saitō Furōfushi back with one punch, the zanpakutō left a deep wound on the back of his hand. He shook his hand in pain, and his originally smiling face turned extremely angry.
"How dare you cut my hand! Go to hell!" The burly man stomped his feet on the ground and flew over like a cannonball. Saitō was slightly surprised that this man's speed was much faster than before. He hurriedly used shunpo to avoid the enemy's attack.
The original two-on-one situation instantly turned into three-on-two.
Moreover, the sharp sound that came from the ruins just now was definitely not from the burly man in front of him, which meant there was an enemy hiding in the dark.
"Not bad! You've grown so big for nothing. What's your name?" Saitō was getting more and more excited. Didn't he join the Gotei 13 in the first place just to be able to fight freely?
The burly man introduced himself: "I am the Wandenreich Sternritter F, Fury Charles Eugene. The angrier I am, the stronger I will be! So make me angrier!"
Yamabuki, who was not far away, couldn't help but look sideways after hearing this self-introduction. Are you the Hulk? The angrier you get, the stronger you become?
"Leave this to me!" Yamabuki's body was as fast as lightning. The best way to deal with this kind of enemy that can stack buffs is to kill it with one blow.
However, just when this pirated Hulk was on full alert, Yamabuki suddenly tripped, and because of his fast speed, he was shot out and smashed through many houses and buildings.
Saitō said helplessly, "Are you okay? You can fall down by yourself with shunpo?"
But the voice of Yamabuki was heard from the ruins: "No... I didn't fall down by myself, I was attacked, and my foot was suddenly pierced by something!"
As he spoke, Yamabuki stood up from the ruins, and sure enough, his instep was covered in blood.
Bard waved his broken left arm, and the yellow sand condensed into an arm that could barely be used as a prosthesis.
The three people formed a triangle and trapped Yamabuki and Saitō in the center.
The wound on Yamabuki's foot healed quickly, but his vigilance soared because he didn't feel any of the enemy's attacks before his foot was injured.
In other words, the enemy hiding in the dark could not only accurately hit him while he was moving quickly but also evade his detection. This was simply outrageous.
Moreover, each of the three enemies that appeared had extraordinary strength. Bard could control sandstorms, Momo could release unbreakable chains, and Eugene could infinitely enhance his strength.
There was also a strange enemy that could attack from the dark, making it hard to guard against.
Any two of these four people joining forces would be enough to give the captain of the Gotei 13 a tough time.
"What should we do now?" asked Saitō.
I originally thought that Ishida Oborozuki was just an insignificant character, but now it seemed that she should have some status in the Wandenreich.
After assessing the current situation, Yamabuki whispered, "Let's retreat first. It will be disadvantageous for us to continue fighting."
Before facing Yhwach, Yamabuki didn't want to reveal his abilities in advance.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Saitō said in a low voice.
"Want to leave after causing damage? How can it be that easy?" Momo stretched out her hands and waved two chains.
Yellow sand flew up around Bard, and Eugene clenched his fists with a grim smile on his face.
There was also a fourth person who had been lurking in the shadows.
"Break away from that woman!" Yamabuki whispered.
Momo's melee ability was the weakest, so breaking through from her side was the best decision.
"Go!" Yamabuki was as fast as lightning. The sword in his hand was instantly at Momo's neck. Just as he was about to stab the sword into the woman's neck, yellow sand flew up in the sky, and a whip made of vertical strips of yellow sand wrapped around his zanpakutō.
At the same time, Momo also attacked with chains.
If her chains only entangled my hands and feet, I could still deal with it, but if they entangled my body, it would be big trouble!
"Ding ding!"
With two loud bangs, Saitō had already shaken the two chains away, but at the same time, the pirated Hulk Eugene rushed up with his huge fists waving and smashed Saitō from behind.
Yamabuki swung his sword to cut off the long yellow sand whip and instantly came behind Saitō, clenched his left fist, and punched him.
Both of them collided, and a faint shock wave spread out from their fists.
"Instant Roar!"
Yamabuki's spiritual pressure exploded, and he knocked Eugene back with one punch. Just as Eugene was knocked back, the long yellow sand whip attacked Yamabuki again.
Yamabuki swung his sword, but just as the blade and the long whip were about to collide, a bloody hole suddenly appeared on Yamabuki's right wrist. Then he felt a sharp pain, and blood spurted out of his wrist. Because the tendons in his hand were cut directly by the stab, his right hand became weak. At the critical moment, he could only change swords, switching the sword in his right hand to his left hand, and then chopped it fiercely. The powerful spiritual pressure chopped the long yellow sand whip into pieces.
Although the wound on his right hand healed very quickly afterwards, he still broke out in a cold sweat.
What kind of power was this? How did it hurt me?
Yamabuki had two defensive means: Steel Skin and Static Blood Armor. Unless the enemy's strength reached the captain level, it was difficult for him to cause effective damage. Even though he was hit head-on by the Yellow Sand Whip just now, he only suffered some superficial injuries.
But the person hiding in the dark could hurt his body in a completely unknown way!
In battle, it was a matter of life and death!
What's more, all those who besieged Yamabuki were strong.
As soon as he was distracted, Momo's iron chains wrapped around his body like a snake.
