The screen flared back to life, the new ranking title appearing in bold, ominous text:
[NO.7]
[All-Piercing, Infinite Sniper]
[God's Scale, Miracle Regeneration]
The Bleach world buzzed with anticipation. The subtitles clearly pointed to Lille Barro and Gerard Valkyrie, both Schutzstaffel members whose performances had already left deep impressions.

First Division Barracks
"Two Quincies tied for seventh? Just like the eighth rank…" Captain-Commander Yamamoto's aged eyes narrowed, his voice low. "The Schutzstaffel's strength is far beyond the other Sternritter. This Yhwach… his power is unsettling."
Beside him, Chojiro Sasakibe clutched his Zanpakutō, his hands trembling slightly. "Captain-Commander, if Lille Barro's X-Axis can pierce even Nimaya Oetsu, what chance do we have against them?"
Yamamoto's expression remained stern, but his silence spoke volumes. The Zero Division's defeat was a blow to the Soul Society's morale, and Yhwach's ability to revive and enhance his elite soldiers was a nightmare scenario.
"Let's not jump to conclusions," Yamamoto finally said. "The Zero Division are not so easily defeated. Watch closely—this battle is far from over."

In the Video
The scene returned to the Soul King's Palace, the air thick with tension. Nimaya Oetsu lay wounded, barely conscious, as the other Zero Division members stepped forward to confront Yhwach and his revived Schutzstaffel.
Senjumaru Shutara took the lead, her delicate fingers weaving golden threads that shimmered with spiritual energy. "You think you've won by wounding one of us? The Zero Division has protected the Soul King for millennia. You Quincies are nothing but upstarts."
Her voice was calm but laced with venom, her threads forming a massive tapestry that enveloped the battlefield like a spider's web.
"Senjumaru's Weaving ability…" Urahara muttered at his shop, his eyes gleaming with interest. "She's creating a domain to trap the Schutzstaffel. This could turn the tide!"
But before the tapestry could fully form, Lille Barro raised his rifle.
Bang!
A single shot tore through the golden threads, shredding Senjumaru's domain as if it were paper. The bullet's path was absolute, ignoring all barriers and striking her arm, drawing blood.
"Ugh…!" Senjumaru staggered, clutching her wounded arm, her face pale but defiant.
"Impossible…" At the Urahara Shop, Tessai's jaw dropped. "Her spiritual threads are infused with captain-level Reiatsu! How could they be pierced so easily?!"
"It's the X-Axis," Urahara explained grimly. "Lille's Schrift doesn't just pierce—it nullifies anything in its line of sight. No defense, no matter how strong, can stop it."

Soul King's Palace
As Senjumaru retreated, Tenjiro Kirinji stepped forward, his hot spring waters swirling around him. "Tch… You Quincies are getting cocky. Time to cool you off!"
His waters surged like a tsunami, aiming to engulf Lille and the others. But before the waves could reach them, Gerard Valkyrie stepped forward, his massive frame radiating an aura of invincibility.
"Miracle!" Gerard roared, raising his shield, Hoffnung. The water crashed against it, only to be repelled as if hitting an unbreakable wall. The reflected force sent Kirinji skidding back, his face twisted in shock.
"His Miracle ability…" Byakuya Kuchiki's voice was tense at the Sixth Division. "It converts damage into power. The stronger the attack, the stronger he becomes."
Renji Abarai swallowed hard. "So hitting him makes him tougher? That's insane! How do you fight something like that?!"

The Battle Escalates
With two Zero Division members wounded, Hyosube Ichibe, the leader, finally stepped forward. His bald head gleamed under the palace's light, and his brush-like Zanpakutō, Ichimonji, radiated an ancient, overwhelming presence.
"Yhwach," Ichibe's voice was calm but carried the weight of centuries. "Your Schutzstaffel may be strong, but you face the Monk Who Calls the True Name. Your Almighty will not save you here."
Yhwach's crimson eyes met Ichibe's, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Is that so? Then show me, Monk, what power you wield over names."
Ichibe raised Ichimonji, black ink swirling around him like a storm. "All things in this world have a name. And I control them all."
With a single stroke of his brush, the ink lashed out, targeting Yhwach. The black wave seemed to erase the very air it touched, a power that could strip away the essence of anything it struck.
The Bleach world held its breath.
"Could this be it? The Zero Division's trump card?!" Isshin shouted, his excitement returning.
But Yhwach didn't flinch. His crimson eyes glowed, and a strange ripple spread through the air. The ink wave halted mid-strike, dissipating as if it had never existed.
"What…?" Ichibe's eyes widened, his calm demeanor cracking for the first time.
"The Almighty," Yhwach said softly, his voice carrying an unshakable certainty. "I see all futures, all possibilities. Your power over names is meaningless when I can rewrite the outcome."
The camera zoomed in on Yhwach's eyes, now split with multiple pupils, each glowing with an otherworldly light. The Almighty's true power was revealed—a force that could manipulate fate itself.

Fifth Division, Underground Chamber
Aizen Sosuke's lips curled into a rare, genuine smile. "Fascinating… The Almighty allows Yhwach to see and alter all possible futures. Even Kyoka Suigetsu might struggle against such a power."
Gin Ichimaru tilted his head, his fox-like grin widening. "Captain Aizen, you sound excited. Planning to challenge the Quincy King yourself?"
Aizen chuckled softly. "Perhaps. But for now, let's enjoy the show. Ichibe's power over names is no small thing. This battle is far from decided."
---
Soul King's Palace
Ichibe, undeterred, unleashed a torrent of ink, each stroke carrying the weight of a thousand names. "You may see the future, Yhwach, but can you withstand the erasure of your very existence?"
The ink surged, forming a massive seal that enveloped Yhwach. For a moment, it seemed to work—his form began to fade, as if his name itself was being stripped away.
But then, the multiple pupils in Yhwach's eyes glowed brighter. "You cannot erase what I have foreseen."
With a wave of his hand, the seal shattered, and the ink turned against Ichibe, binding him in his own power. The Monk's eyes widened in shock as his own ability was reversed.
"No…!"
The screen erupted in a blinding flash, the clash of Ichimonji and the Almighty shaking the Soul King's Palace. The round ended abruptly, leaving the outcome unresolved.

Urahara Shop
"Damn it! Another cliffhanger?!" Isshin roared, nearly flipping the table. "Just when Ichibe was about to turn it around!"
Urahara's face was uncharacteristically serious. "Yhwach's Almighty… It's not just about seeing the future. He can manipulate it, rewrite it. Even the Zero Division might not be enough."
Tessai's voice was heavy. "If the Soul King's Palace falls, the three realms—Soul Society, Human World, and Hueco Mundo—will collapse. This is worse than we ever imagined."
The Bleach world was left in suspense, the terror of Yhwach's power sinking in. The Quincy King wasn't just a threat—he was a force that could reshape reality itself.
