Chapter 222: The Devoured Spirit King's Heart and Left Hand! Rogga Edition True

Just as Yasi Jin Na Ke Lu Wa Er was being engulfed by a sea of blood, already merged with the Soul‑Cutting Blade, at the almost conceptual stage of the Mao's Flower Blaze's excruciating torment…

Penida Pakaja has shed his white coat, revealing his true form: a massive hand with five fingers, standing before Jingle Spring Water, Fu Zhu Shi Si Lang, Gang Mi Dai Shi Tan, Si Feng Yuan Ye Yi, and, because of the duel between Mao's Flower Blaze and Yasi Jin, the liberated Nie Jian Li, Ri Ban Gu Dong Shi Lang, Xiu Mu Bai Zai, Dong Xian Yao, and Ku Wu Xi—nine people in total.

"It's ironic, I never imagined that one day the Spirit King's left hand would become the enemy of us, the Gotei 13 that guard the Jingling Court!"

"And we, descendants of the five Grand Dukes' bloodlines of the Soul Society—the heads of the Si Feng Yuan, Xiu Mu, and Gang Mi Dai families—find ourselves once again standing opposite His Majesty the Spirit King, swords drawn…"

"How amusing! At this moment it feels like we are reenacting history! Perhaps a million years ago, the ancestors of the Five Great Nobles acted for the same reason, committing that great heresy—who knows!"

Gang Mi Dai Shi Tan glanced at Ye Yi and Bai Zai beside him, a faint smile tugging at his mouth, and, interested, whispered to everyone present.

"Heh…"

In response to Shi Tan's sarcastic words, everyone merely gave a light laugh.

"Hey, everyone, be careful! Lord Penida, as the Spirit King's left arm, inherently carries the power that drives all things forward, a power that perfectly corresponds to the Spirit King's right arm, that is, Lord Mi Mi Ha Ji's unchanging power…"

At that moment, Fu Zhu Shi Si Lang explained to those present.

"Got it~"

"In short, just be a bit more careful, okay?!"

Regarding Fu Zhu's words, Shi Tan waved his hand casually, clearly not taking it to heart.

"Buzz!"

And at the instant Shi Tan finished speaking…

Accompanied by a roaring friction of spiritual particles in the air, Penida's figure had already moved behind Shi Tan, extending his massive hand to seize Shi Tan's head.

"You were careless, Lord Penida~"

However, just as Penida's hand was about to touch Shi Tan, Penida's pupils flickered slightly, and a darkness suddenly fell over his vision.

"Bankai! Pure Insect Final Form: Enma Cricket!"

Immediately, a hoarse voice of Dong Xian Yao reached Penida's ears.

"……"

After entering Dong Xian Yao's Bankai, Penida realized that his five senses were completely stripped away by the Bankai, even his usually confident spiritual‑pressure perception was fully sealed.

"Swish!"

At that moment of confusion, Penida felt a sharp piercing sensation, a pain that made him furious.

"Omnidirectional Sacred Annihilation Arrow!"

In response, Penida emitted his ability with a faint, mosquito‑wing‑like sound, releasing it softly.

From his center, Penida shot Sacred Annihilation Arrows in all directions!

"Boom!!"

For an instant, every corner of the domain created after Dong Xian Yao's Bankai was covered and destroyed by Penida's Sacred Annihilation Arrows…

But that was not all; Penida's Sacred Annihilation Arrows differ entirely from ordinary Sacred Annihilation Arrows, as they contain his nerves.

When those nerves touched matter, they triggered Penida's Holy Script ability, and in an instant Penida successfully controlled every corner of the domain generated after Dong Xian Yao's Soul‑Cutting Blade Bankai, tearing the Bankai in half from within…

"Boom!"

After destroying Dong Xian Yao's Bankai, Penida looked up at the bright sun overhead, squinting slightly.

In Penida's eyes, a pair of eyeballs with two pupils, seemingly able to see through all things, spun continuously…

However, the next second.

Penida's complexion suddenly changed!

Sweat beads sprang up on Penida's forehead.

"You are the Spirit King's left hand, aren't you?"

At that moment, Nie Jian Li smiled and stepped in front of Penida, tilting his head to meet Penida's gaze while softly asking.

"I…"

"Just Penida!"

It seemed Penida was tired of others linking him to the Spirit King.

He softly emphasized his identity…

He is Penida, and only Penida…

Not some left hand of His Majesty the Spirit King!

"In any case, you were indeed the Spirit King's left hand before, right?!"

"A thousand years ago, that Ichibei from the Military Chief Division used your power to seal Youhabah's eyes! Little did anyone expect that a thousand years later, you would be assimilated by Youha…"

"How disappointing, Spirit King~"

Nie Jian Li looked at Penida, a hint of disappointment flashing across his face.

"What did you do to me?!"

Penida didn't know what Nie Jian Li had done to him, but his thoughts were evolving at that moment, and soon he could communicate like a normal person.

"It's nothing! Just Penida, you really shouldn't scatter your nerves everywhere~ and you shouldn't eat unclean things…"

Nie Jian Li smiled and said cheerfully.

"What did you do?!"

Sweat dripped from Penida's forehead as he continued to ask Nie Jian Li.

"Don't worry, I'm just curious—your body now contains Youhabah's blood, and after further merging with Captain Araki's blood, I wondered to what extent you'd evolve, so after Dong Xian Yao used his Bankai on you, I borrowed some blood from Lord Captain Araki and injected it into you, that's all…"

To that, Nie Jian Li smiled and said cheerfully.

"What?!"

Hearing that, the pair of eyes with two pupils in Penida's eyeballs trembled instantly.

Because Penida is the Spirit King's left hand, symbolizing the power of forward movement…

So after Niejianli injected Araki's blood into Penida's body, he subconsciously performed analysis and synchronization, then helped himself evolve~

And the price was that Penida, in an instant, poured Araki's blood throughout his whole body and completed synchronization with himself…

"Buzz!!"

Almost the moment Niejianli's words fell.

Within Penida's body, Araki and Youhabahu's Extinction Master power began a clash! Perhaps because Araki's Extinction Master power, not only inherited from the Spiritual King, also contains the counterpart of the Spiritual King's right‑hand power that shares the same origin as Penida!

Thus, Araki's Extinction Master power, almost instantly, gained the upper hand in the battle against Youhabahu's power inside Penida, and after a dozen minutes completely crushed Youhabahu's power within Penida…

"Looks like it's over~"

To this, Niejianli bared his golden, dazzling large yellow tooth, smiled and said.

"Is that it?!"

To this, aside from Niejianli, all the captains of the "Guardian Twelve Squads" froze in place! Everyone had originally thought a fierce battle would ensue! After all, their opponent this time was the left hand of His Majesty the Spiritual King, a formidable power…

As a result, Penida, the left hand of the Spiritual King, seemed to be the first of Youhabahu's four elite guards that they eliminated! And the easiest one to take down~

"Then what should we do next?!"

Ye Yi of the Four Maple Court asked the assembled crowd with a puzzled expression.

"Well…"

Jingle, hearing that, awkwardly scratched his cheek…

Honestly, he also didn't know what they should do now.

To this, Niejianli showed a wicked grin, looked at the fainted Penida before him, and excitedly said: "Of course we should fully retrieve the Spiritual King's left hand, then take it back for thorough study~"

"This is the Spiritual King's body! Every organ of His Majesty the Spiritual King possesses unique and unexpected power! With the left hand of the Spiritual King, I can conduct many experiments~"

As Niejianli spoke, he was already eager to bring the Penida before him back to his laboratory~

"Sorry! Regarding the Spiritual King's left arm, I'm going to retrieve it~"

Just as Niejianli was about to touch Penida's body with both hands, a pink silhouette fell from the sky, blocking between Niejianli and Penida.

"Princess Baqianliu?!"

Jingle and the others, seeing the pink figure descending from the heavens, instantly uttered the newcomer's name.

Yes, the newcomer was no one else…

It was Araki's eldest daughter, Araki Baqianliu~

At this moment, Baqianliu descended from the sky, coming to retrieve Penida~

"What? This isn't what was agreed upon!"

"You should know, Penida was only solved thanks to my power and plan!"

"It should have been handed over to me for research first!"

Upon hearing Baqianliu's words, Niejianli's face changed instantly.

This boiled duck can still fly, huh?

"Sorry, the plan needs to be changed…"

"But in the end, Niejianli, you only subdued Penida because of your father's blood, right? So Penida isn't completely taken down by you~"

Baqianliu, hearing that, first expressed a hint of apology to Niejianli, then firmly said.

"That's over the line!"

Niejianli heard that, angry inside, yet helpless.

"Anyway, I'll take this guy first!"

Baqianliu said, extending her left hand toward Penida.

"Swish!"

The next second, the Penida who had been stunned in place instantly turned into a black bandage, wrapping around Baqianliu's left hand, then vanished without a trace before the death gods.

However, if anyone now looks at Baqianliu's left hand, they would see that on Baqianliu's left hand, absurdly, there is an eyeball with two pupils.

"'Spiritual King' left hand retrieval complete!"

"Next, we'll retrieve the Spiritual King's heart!"

Baqianliu said, gently waving her left hand.

Immediately after, Baqianliu used a flash step; her figure vanished before everyone's eyes, as if she had come on her own, not disturbing anyone even while walking.

"In short, our mission is complete, right?!"

After Baqianliu left…

Jingle Chunshui asked the assembled crowd.

"Where is it so easy to complete?"

"Youhabahu's guard unit still has three people alive!"

To this, Xiumu Baiya spoke out.

"We truly cannot rest even a moment!"

"That guy named Askin, one person is enough for the teacher's wife!"

"As for the remaining two, let's split up."

"I, Fu Zhu, Ye Yi, Shi Tan and Baiya, will deal with that one who can pierce all things!"

"As for Niejianli, Rifan Gu, Ku Wufu and Dong Xianyao, you four go after that guy called Gerard Valkyrie."

Jingle Chunshui, looking at the crowd, assigned the next tasks.

"Good!"

To this, the captains of the "Guardian Twelve Squads", after hearing Jingle Chunshui's instructions, all nodded.

"I'm not going! I'm not going anywhere…"

Only Nie Juanli remained alone, as Peinida had been taken by the Eight Thousand Flow, so he stood there, unhappy, and spoke.

Only Nie Juanli alone, because Peinida was snatched away by the Eight Thousand Flow, stood in place, unhappy, and spoke.

【129】

Thus line: 【121】 Only Nie Juanli alone, because Peinida was snatched away by the Eight Thousand Flow, stood in place, unhappy, and spoke.

Peinida is a place or person? It's a name: Peinida. Should we treat it as a name? It's a transliteration of a name (maybe a place). It's not a person? Could be a place name. According to the rules, place names that are just a surname or meaningless proper noun should be kept in pinyin. So we should keep 'Peinida' as is (pinyin). It's not translated. So we keep Peinida.

Eight Thousand Flow is a term; could be a technique or group. It's not a person name; it's a term. Should we translate? It's not a cultivation term but a generic term; we should translate by meaning: Eight Thousand Flow. So we keep as translated.

Thus line: 【121】 Only Nie Juanli alone, because Peinida was snatched away by the Eight Thousand Flow, stood in place, unhappy, and spoke.

Anyway, take action!

Anyway, take action!

Anyway, take action!

In response, Kyoraku also couldn't be bothered with Nie Juanli and directly issued the action order.

Translation: "Regarding this, Jing Le also couldn't be bothered with Nie Juanli, and directly issued the action order." We'll translate: "Regarding this, Jing Le also couldn't be bothered with Nie Juanli, and directly issued the action order."

Good!

Translation: "Good!" or "Okay!" We'll use "Good!"

As Kyoraku's words fell, all the captains present instantly vanished from the spot.

Translation: "As Jing Le's words fell, all the captains present instantly disappeared from the spot." We'll translate: "As Jing Le's words fell, all the captains present instantly disappeared from the spot."

Boom!

Translation: "Boom!"

At the same time...

Translation: "At the same time…" We'll keep ellipsis.

The battle between Kenpachi Zaraki and Gerard Valkyrie continued.

Translation: "The battle between Gengmu Jianba and Gerard Valkyrie was still ongoing." We'll translate: "The battle between Gengmu Jianba and Gerard Valkyrie was still ongoing."

Bankai...

Translation: "Bankai…" We'll translate term.

It must be said, Gerard Valkyrie's power is indeed formidable!

Translation: "It has to be said, Gerard Valkyrie's power is indeed formidable!" We'll translate: "It has to be said, Gerard Valkyrie's power is indeed formidable!"

This directly forced Kenpachi Zaraki to unleash his own Bankai.

Translation: "This directly forced Gengmu Jianba to unleash his own Bankai~" We'll keep tilde? The Chinese ends with ~. We'll keep tilde at end? The instruction: keep punctuation? We'll keep as is: "This directly forced Gengmu Jianba to unleash his own Bankai~"

Boom!

Translation: "Boom!"

As Kenpachi Zaraki uttered the word 'Bankai', his body erupted with endless red gas, demon-like horns sprouted from his forehead, and terrifying spiritual pressure poured out from within him like a tidal wave.

Translation: "As Gengmu uttered the two words 'Bankai', his body erupted with endless red gas, horns like a demon grew on his forehead, and terrifying spiritual pressure, like a tide, was released from within his body." We'll translate: "As Gengmu uttered the two words 'Bankai', his body erupted with endless red gas, horns like a demon grew on his forehead, and terrifying spiritual pressure, like a tide, was released from within his body."

At the same time, the axe he held shattered, turning from a massive battle-axe into a broken, worn-out axe.

Translation: "At the same time, the wild sunning in Gengmu's hand broke at this moment, turning from a huge axe into a broken, old axe……" We'll translate: "At the same time, the wild sunning in Gengmu's hand broke at this moment, turning from a huge axe into a broken, old axe……"

However, although Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakutō was broken, his spiritual pressure continued to rise at this moment!

Translation: "However, although Gengmu Jianba's Soul-Cutter Sword was broken, his spiritual pressure continued to rise at this moment!" We'll translate: "However, although Gengmu Jianba's Soul-Cutter Sword was broken, his spiritual pressure continued to rise at this moment!"

Although the axe was broken, its power received a tremendous boost.

Translation: "Although the axe was broken, its power received a huge boost~" We'll translate: "Although the axe was broken, its power received a huge boost~"

Die!

Translation: "Die!"

Kenpachi Zaraki said this, then directly raised his axe high and swung it at Gerard Valkyrie.

Translation: "Gengmu Jianba said, directly raising the wild sunning high, and then lunged to slash at Gerard Valkyrie~" We'll translate: "Gengmu Jianba said, directly raising the wild sunning high, and then lunged to slash at Gerard Valkyrie~"

Boom!

Translation: "Boom!"

In an instant, a tremendous roar echoed across the heavens!

Translation: "For a moment, a tremendous roar echoed across the horizon!" We'll translate: "For a moment, a tremendous roar echoed across the horizon!"

In just a single encounter, the mighty Gerard Valkyrie was instantly cleaved in half by Kenpachi Zaraki's Zanpakutō.

Translation: "In just a single exchange, the powerful Valkyrie was instantly split in half by Gengmu Jianba's Soul-Cutter Sword!" We'll translate: "In just a single exchange, the powerful Valkyrie was instantly split in half by Gengmu Jianba's Soul-Cutter Sword!"

Zaraki!

Translation: "Gengmu!" (maybe calling name). We'll translate: "Gengmu!"

However, the outcome of this battle was not yet decided.

Translation: "However, the outcome of this battle did not end there……" We'll translate: "However, the outcome of this battle did not end there……"

Only to see the already-deceased Gerard Valkyrie suddenly let out a roar from his mouth! Immediately he then, from the outcome of being killed by Zaraki, revived.

Only to see the already-deceased Gerard Valkyrie suddenly let out a roar from his mouth! Immediately he then, from the outcome of being killed by Gengmu, revived~

Only to see the now enormously enlarged Gerard Valkyrie roar at the Bankai-released Zaraki.

Translation: "Only to see, Gerard, whose body had become enormously large, roared at the Bankai-released Gengmu:" We'll translate: "Only to see, Gerard, whose body had become enormously large, roared at the Bankai-released Gengmu:"

What the heck is going on with this guy?!

Translation: "What the hell is going on with this guy!!" We'll translate: "What the hell is going on with this guy!!"

You couldn't kill him?!

Translation: "You couldn't kill him?!!" We'll translate: "You couldn't kill him?!!"

In response, Zaraki looked at the revived Gerard Valkyrie and asked doubtfully.

Translation: "Regarding this, Gengmu looked at the revived Gerard and asked doubtfully." We'll translate: "Regarding this, Gengmu looked at the revived Gerard and asked doubtfully."

Hahaha!

Translation: "Hahaha!"

This is the power of a miracle.

Translation: "This is the power of miracles……" We'll translate: "This is the power of miracles……"

No matter how many times you kill me, I can always come back to life!

Translation: "No matter how many times you kill me, I can come back to life!" We'll translate: "No matter how many times you kill me, I can come back to life!"

This is precisely the power of immortality.

Translation: "This is precisely the power of an immortal body~" We'll translate: "This is precisely the power of an immortal body~"

Gerard Valkyrie heard this, burst out laughing at Zaraki, and shouted triumphantly.

Translation: "Gerard, upon hearing this, let out a wild laugh toward Gengmu and shouted triumphantly." We'll translate: "Gerard, upon hearing this, let out a wild laugh toward Gengmu and shouted triumphantly."

What a troublesome guy.

Translation: "What a troublesome guy……" We'll translate: "What a troublesome guy……"

In response, Kenpachi Zaraki let out a weary sigh.

Translation: "In response, Gengmu Jianba sighed helplessly." We'll translate: "In response, Gengmu Jianba sighed helplessly."

Freeze him, moonlight.

Translation: "Ice seal him, Moonlight~" We'll translate: "Ice seal him, Moonlight~"

However, just as Kenpachi Zaraki was about to launch a second attack to completely destroy Gerard Valkyrie...

Translation: "However, just as Gengmu Jianba was about to launch a second attack on Gerard, intending to completely destroy him……" We'll translate: "However, just as Gengmu Jianba was about to launch a second attack on Gerard, intending to completely destroy him……"

With a soft, soft voice, it rang out in the sky.

With a soft, soft voice, it rang out in the sky~

Gerard Valkyrie's massive body was instantly frozen solid by the ice.

Translation: "Gerard's enormous body was instantly frozen by the cold ice~" We'll translate: "Gerard's enormous body was instantly frozen by the cold ice~"

Huh?!

Translation: "Huh?!" We'll translate: "Huh?!"

Zaraki looked at the scene before him, a flicker of doubt crossing his expression.

Translation: "Gengmu looked at the scene before him, a flicker of doubt crossing his expression." We'll translate: "Gengmu looked at the scene before him, a flicker of doubt crossing his expression."

As Zaraki looked toward the direction of the voice, he saw Arisawa's young daughter, the unfading flower of Arisawa, appearing out of nowhere in

Translation: "As Gengmu looked toward the direction where the sound came from, he saw the small daughter of Huangmu, the figure of Huangmu Budiaohua, appearing at some point in this sky." We'll translate: "As Gengmu looked toward the direction where the sound came from, he saw the small daughter of Huangmu, the figure of Huangmu Budiaohua, appearing at some point in this sky."

What? If that's the case, wouldn't it mean I don't get a chance to act?

Translation: "What? If that's the case, wouldn't it mean I don't get a chance to act?" We'll translate: "What? If that's the case, wouldn't it mean I don't get a chance to act?"

Gengmu Sword Eight looked at the undying flower standing in the sky and spoke indifferently.

Translation: "Gengmu Jianba looked at the unwithering flower standing in the sky, and spoke indifferently." We'll translate: "Gengmu Jianba looked at the unwithering flower standing in the sky, and spoke indifferently."

Shatter! Moonlight!

Translation: "Shatter! Moonlight!" We'll translate: "Shatter! Moonlight!"

Just as Gengmu Sword Eight's words fell……

Translation: "Just as Gengmu Jianba's words fell……" We'll translate: "Just as Gengmu Jianba's words fell……"

The undying flower in the sky launched another attack on Gerard.

Translation: "The unwithering flower in the sky launched another attack on Gerard." We'll translate: "The unwithering flower in the sky launched another attack on Gerard."

Only hearing the undying flower whisper softly, Gerard Valkyrie, completely frozen by the undying flower, instantly turned into countless fragments and fell to the ground.

Translation: "Only hearing the unwithering flower whisper softly, the Gerard Valkyrie completely frozen by the unwithering flower instantly turned into countless fragments, falling to the ground." We'll translate: "Only hearing the unwithering flower whisper softly, the Gerard Valkyrie completely frozen by the unwithering flower instantly turned into countless fragments, falling to the ground."

This time, it should be completely over, right?!

Translation: "This time, it should be completely over, right!!" We'll translate: "This time, it should be completely over, right!!"

Blood-covered Gengmu Sword Eight, looking at Gerard dying again, muttered to himself.

Translation: "Blood-soaked Gengmu Jianba, looking at Gerard dying once again, muttered to himself:" We'll translate: "Blood-soaked Gengmu Jianba, looking at Gerard dying once again, muttered to himself:"

Boom!!

Translation: "Boom!!"

Just as Gengmu Sword Eight was speaking……

Translation: "Exactly while Gengmu Jianba was speaking……" We'll translate: "Exactly while Gengmu Jianba was speaking……"

That Gerard, who should have already been dead, suddenly burst forth with a tremendous spiritual pressure; seeing Gerard, who had been dead, suddenly transform into a giant of light and rise from the ground once more~

Translation: "That Gerard, who should have already been dead, suddenly erupted with a surging spiritual pressure once again; only to see the formerly dead Gerard suddenly transform into a giant of light, and stand up from the ground once again~" We'll translate: "That Gerard, who should have already been dead, suddenly erupted with a surging spiritual pressure once again; only to see the formerly dead Gerard suddenly transform into a giant of light, and stand up from the ground once again~"

Hahaha……

Translation: "Hahaha……"

Ahahaha……

Translation: "Ahahaha……"

The revived Gerard let out a manic laugh.

Translation: "The revived Gerard let out a maniacal laugh." We'll translate: "The revived Gerard let out a maniacal laugh."

I will never die!

Translation: "I will absolutely not die!" We'll translate: "I will absolutely not die!"

Gerard looked at Gengmu Sword Eight and the undying flower, laughing as he swung his enormous fist.

Translation: "Gerard gazed at Gengmu Jianba and Huangmu Budiaohua, laughing while swinging his enormously huge fist." We'll translate: "Gerard gazed at Gengmu Jianba and Huangmu Budiaohua, laughing while swinging his enormously huge fist."

That's enough!

Translation: "That's enough!" We'll translate: "That's enough!"

However, at the very moment when Gerard's entirety fell down toward the Gengmu and the unfading flower...

Bachenliu's silhouette appeared in the sky.

Only seeing, Bachenliu actively met Gerard's fist, letting his left hand touch Gerard, who had transformed into a giant of light in the sky~

Huh?!

Gerard seemingly hadn't expected that, after entering this form, there would still be a fearless guy daring to approach him~

However, before Gerard could think further……

At the moment Bachenliu's left hand touched him, Gerard felt his body begin to lose control!

What is this?!

In response, Gerard's expression froze.

If he wasn't mistaken……

This power must be the compulsory execution of Penida's Holy Scripture ability, right?!

But how did Penida's power end up in the hands of a Shinigami?

For a moment, Gerard's heart was filled with doubt.

Boom!!

Before Gerard could fully understand, under Penida's Holy Scripture ability, the light-formed body he had painstakingly assembled after death instantly clutched itself together, curling into a huge ball of light.

Damn it!

Gerard felt his body's dissonance and roared angrily.

Unfortunately, Gerard couldn't control his body, just as a human heart cannot escape the grasp of human hands~

Thus, under Penida's compulsory enforcement power, Gerard turned into a sparkling heart, releasing endless energy……

What is that?!

In response, Gengmu Jianba, who stood on the ground with his cape fluttering, after a fierce battle with Gerard and gravely wounded, glanced at the sparkling heart in the sky, his expression slightly stiffened.

Leave the rest to me!

At that moment, Aramaki Budiaohua flew into the sky; only seeing her little hand gesture toward the sparkling heart, she lightly beckoned—and the heart instantly fused with Budiaohua……

As Gerard said, as the heart of the Soul King's Majesty, he absolutely will not die! Unless he merges with another or is blessed by Yhwach~

Gerard Valkiri, a warrior who died in the Quincy civil war~

As for Yhwach, without a doubt he is the phantom god of the civil war……

On the Shinigami side, aside from the exhausted, powerless Yuanliuzhai, whom he personally struck down, he hasn't killed a single other person!

Yhwach killed only his own people~

If we don't count the final stab that killed Yhwach by Heiqi Yihu~

Yhwach undoubtedly is the MVP of the Shinigami side!

One blessing, and the Imperial Guard didn't die, the Vollständig wasn't lost, nor was his half—Yugelan Hasuwode……

At the same time~

After Budiaohua and Bachenliu, the sisters, had taken the Soul King's heart and left hand, their gazes instantly turned toward the Soul King Palace in the sky~

Next, it's time to meet Yhwach~

At the same time, Budiaohua and Bachenliu, on this trip to the Soul King Palace, also need to answer a doubt for their dear senior brother Lanran~

Yes, some people stand in the heavens from the moment they are born!

Although, in this world, how could nobles and generals be of a different seed?

But the legitimate heirs of nobles and generals, without exception, can always inherit the position~

Although, all roads lead to Rome~

But there are always those who are born in Rome from the moment of birth~

On the other hand……

After Gerard Valkiri and Penida Pakaja were defeated!

Aside from Askin, who was barely holding on in Maohualie's hands~

Liejie·Baluo has already become the last trump card of Yhwach's four elite guards!

Boom!!

At this moment, the ones locked in fierce combat with Liejie·Baluo are none other than the Twelve Divine Generals, whose injuries have just recovered, and Desert One developed by Niejuanli.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh……

Only seeing Liejie·Baluo wielding a sniper rifle, continuously firing bullets like meteors! Each bullet is enough to make the Twelve Divine Generals before him fall again!

However, whether it be Aramaki's Twelve Divine Generals or Niejuanli's Desert One, no matter how many times they are shot down by Liejie·Baluo's bullets, they can tirelessly rise again from the ground without dying~

Damn it! Are you guys immortal?!

In response, Liejie·Baluo furrowed his brows.

Quincy, you've fought us half a day—don't you understand yet?!

Among Aramaki's Twelve Divine Generals, aside from the top-ranked Luojia·Palamiya……

The one titled the Undying King, A'ertuoluo, upon hearing Liejie·Baluo's words, countered with a question.

Understand what?!

Liejie·Baluo looked at A'ertuoluo, asking doubtfully.

Our Twelve Divine Generals' lives are one!

In response, A'ertuoluo replied with a smile.

What?

Hearing this, Liejie·Baluo's pupils twitched slightly.

Our Twelve Divine Generals' lives are linked together! Unless you kill us all at once, we can resurrect without limit!

By the way, let me tell you some good news—there's absolutely no way to kill us completely! Besides our lives, even our basic abilities are linked together among the Twelve Divine Generals, shared……

Arturo looked at Rujie·Baro's surprised expression and continued.

"What does that mean?!"

Rujie·Baro, hearing that, asked doubtfully.

"Quincy, you know the four basic abilities of a Hollow, right?"

"Hollow Flash! Super-Speed Regeneration! Steel Skin! And Resonance……"

"Exactly! These four abilities are shared among us Twelve Divine Generals~"

Arturo looked at Rujie·Baro and said coldly.

"What does that mean?"

Rujie·Baro heard that, his expression doubtful.

"It's simple! It means that if anyone among us Twelve Divine Generals raises one of the Hollow's basic abilities to a higher level, the others will also rise……"

"For example, I pushed the Hollow's basic ability of Super-Speed Regeneration to the limit! Reached the point where as long as I still have a single cell, I can recover—Limit Regeneration! The moment I mastered Limit Regeneration, all of us Twelve Divine Generals also learned that power~"

"Another example: Ulquiorra, with the help of Master Araki, gave up regeneration and steel skin, even his own special ability, and once pushed his basic Hollow Flash power to the limit, reaching the level of Destruction Hollow Flash! After he linked with us Twelve Divine Generals, his maximized Destruction Hollow Flash can also be used by the rest of us~"

Arturo looked at Rujie·Baro and laughed.

"So what?!"

Rujie·Baro furrowed his brows, looking at Arturo in confusion.

"So! Under this shared ability, combined with our unique powers, we can unleash unexpected strength! For example, if Lilinite can unleash Infinite Hollow Flash, each shot she fires could reach the level of Ulquiorra's Destruction Hollow Flash—then even you couldn't withstand it, right?!"

Arturo said, chuckling.

"Huh?!"

Rujie·Baro heard that, his pupils slightly contracted.

"Infinite King Hollow Flash!"

Just as Rujie·Baro's pupils slightly contracted……

Lilinite had already raised her gun and stood before Rujie·Baro.

"Not good!"

Rujie·Baro's face suddenly changed……

At the moment Lilinite was about to fire! Rujie·Baro took the initiative, raised his sniper rifle, and pierced Lilinite's skull!

Unfortunately, as Arturo said, Lilinite, who possessed Limit Regeneration, did not die then; instead, she remained utterly calm and pulled the trigger on him~

"Boom!!"

The next second, countless crimson Destruction Hollow Flashes directly engulfed Rujie·Baro's body! At the same time, the spiritual pressure of all Twelve Divine Generals was being wildly consumed at this moment!

Although this move's power is immensely huge, being the strongest skill combining the strengths of the Twelve Divine Generals, its cost of consumption is also hard to estimate……

In just an instant, aside from Luojia·Palamiya, who is everyone's ace, the spiritual pressure of all other Divine Generals was instantly depleted!

As for the result, it's incredibly gratifying! This is enough to pierce the world with countless Hollow Flashes! It directly blasted Rujie·Baro's body completely into fragments……

When the smoke and dust cleared, Rujie·Baro's body was left with only a fist-sized golden sphere! That golden sphere emitted a gentle luster~

"Is it over?!"

Bailergang looked at the spherical Rujie·Baro and asked doubtfully.

Originally, Bailergang also wanted to use his aging ability against Rujie·Baro~

But Bailergang didn't expect that Rujie·Baro's Penetration of All Things would be so powerful, even his extraordinarily special aging force could be pierced! Anything between two points, all things in the universe can be pierced by Rujie·Baro……

However, no matter how strong the guy, after taking a combined strike from the Twelve Divine Generals, he should be completely destroyed, right?!

"Swish!"

Just as Bailergang was sizing up that golden sphere……

A golden beam of light directly pierced Bailergang's skull, completely shattering the crown on his head into fragments!

"What is this?!"

For a moment, everyone present's pupils trembled.

"Boom!!"

Just as the Twelve Divine Generals were at a loss……

The golden sphere that Rujie·Baro turned into after death suddenly began to absorb spirit particles from the atmosphere and buildings of the Soul Society on its own! Countless specks seemed to vanish in an instant, merging into that sphere~

The next second, a figure appeared—possessing four pairs of angelic light-made downy wings, a cylindrical body radiating golden light, with nothing left but a head—Rujie·Baro showed himself before everyone's eyes! At this moment, Rujie·Baro had lost any human semblance, resembling a divine messenger~

"What is this?!"

The other Twelve Divine Generals looked at Rujie·Baro's current state and were all shocked! He obviously could no longer be called human.

"Swish!"

Before the Twelve Divine Generals could think further……

Rujie·Baro's body suddenly emitted countless beams of light.

It pierced every cell of the Twelve Divine Generals from head to toe in an instant!

Even Desert One, whose body is entirely made of sand and gravel and can infinitely reorganize, was completely melted away into nothing under Rujie·Baro's divine-like radiance!

"Leave a single cell, a single grain of sand, and you can infinitely revive? Infinitely reorganize?"

"Then why not just pierce through everything you have, all of it?"

Rujie·Baro coldly gazed at the Twelve Divine Generals and Desert One he had destroyed, speaking in a tone utterly flat, as if stating something utterly ordinary.

"I never thought a bunch of Hollows like trash could drive me to this extent?! Making me look so miserable?!"

"Even my Quincy Perfect Holy Body·God's Judgment I unleashed—this really makes me feel foolish! I admit I underestimated you……"

"But that's it for now! After all, I am invincible at the moment……"

And you, Hollows of the Hollow Circle, you've already done your best!

Although I am your enemy, I must also say that your strength is worthy of the Supreme Grand Hollow~

Lijie·Baluo spoke arrogantly.

Boom!

However, before Lijie·Baluo could finish speaking…

On the ground, the Hollows that Lijie·Baluo had destroyed with his own power began to slowly regenerate~

Still reviving?

Could it be that I failed to completely pierce their cells?

No! Wrong, is it because I lost a member of the Twelve Divine Generals?

Lijie·Baluo muttered to himself, as if he had thought of something.

This time, I will completely kill you!

Lijie·Baluo first used his All-Things Piercing, then once again destroyed the writhing masses of flesh on the ground, after which his body turned into gleaming spirit particles and headed off into the distance~

On the other side…

Self-proclaimed strongest of the Star Cross Knights, Gele i·Tuomiu, was fiercely battling the strongest of the Twelve Divine Generals, Luojia·Palamiya.

Let you try this~

Gele i·Tuomiu held a copy of One Hundred Thousand Whys (Military Edition) and was continuously summoning all kinds of strange weapons.

From pistols, rifles, submachine guns…

To grenades, bombs, to incendiary bombs~

Next, Gele i·Tuomiu also released atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, neutron bombs~

When Gele i·Tuomiu discovered that thermal weapons were hardly effective against Luojia·Palamiya,

Even unable to break through Luojia·Palamiya's Counter Membrane, which was crafted using the Hollow's characteristic Counter Membrane ability~

Gele i·Tuomiu then summoned a meteorite…

Though called a meteorite, in size it could completely be called an asteroid!

Even the dinosaur killer that once fell to Earth and indirectly caused the dinosaurs' extinction is far smaller and slower than the meteorite summoned by Gele i·Tuomiu…

Boom!!

In an instant…

One mushroom cloud after another continuously exploded above the Tranquil Spirit Court~

Fortunately, Yoha swapped the Tranquil Spirit Court with the Invisible Empire~

Otherwise, with Gele i·Tuomiu's exaggerated fighting style, the entire Tranquil Spirit Court would have been utterly destroyed long ago! Unfortunately, Luojia·Palamiya, who enveloped herself in the Counter Membrane and exists in two spaces from the outside world, couldn't care less about Gele i·Tuomiu's attacks~

I'm done playing, it's boring~

In response, Gele i·Tuomiu felt a bit fatigued; in just a short while, his brain cells were about to burn out~

Boom!

Just as Gele i·Tuomiu's words fell…

Accompanied by a flash of golden light! As if having eaten the Spark-Spark Fruit, his body seemed to turn into light! He could freely transform into spirit particles to move, and could release countless beams of light capable of piercing all things from the four pairs of wings on his back—Lijie·Baluo instantly appeared before Gele i·Tuomiu and Luojia·Palamiya~

Lijie·Baluo, how did you become like this?

What are you doing here? This guy is my opponent~

Gele i·Tuomiu seemed dissatisfied with Lijie·Baluo's appearance; he looked at Lijie·Baluo and asked angrily.

I came to help you end everything……

Lijie·Baluo said, and directly released his ability at Luojia·Palamiya, who was inside the Counter Membrane.

Swish!

As a golden light streaked across…

Luojia·Palamiya astonishedly discovered that her Counter Membrane had been pierced.

Don't be surprised! Since my ability is called All-Things Piercing, as long as something is between two points, even space can be easily pierced—this makes perfect sense!!

Lijie·Baluo looked at the astonished Luojia and said coldly.

Inhale…

After hearing Lijie·Baluo's words, Luojia waved her hand; her slender fingertips instantly gathered a Hollow Flash, shooting toward Lijie·Baluo.

Boom!

However, unfortunately…

Even after being struck in a vital spot by Luojia's Hollow Flash, Lijie·Baluo remained floating in the sky~

Luojia's attack failed to inflict any damage on Lijie·Baluo.

Useless! I am now invincible…

Whether physical injury or spiritual injury, none can harm me in the slightest~

Lijie·Baluo looked at Luojia, his expression hinting at a trace of pity.

Alright! You can go die…

Those who defy the gods will surely invite divine punishment!

This is the unalterable will of heaven!

And I shall act in place of the gods to punish you~

Lijie·Baluo said, and instantly gathered beams of golden light on the wings behind him.

……Exhale~

At the same moment, Luojia, who had just taken a deep breath, suddenly exhaled the turbid air from her chest, and her eyes gradually grew sharp.

Luo Jia had no hesitation, directly entering the Collapsed Jade form……

Next, in front of Lie Jie Baro, he took out two knives, the same model as Hei Qi Yi Hu's Soul-Cutting Sword! This is exactly the Soul-Cutting Sword that Luo Jia had previously replicated……

"Huh?!"

Lie Jie Baro gazed at the knife in Luo Jia's heart, and for some reason, he actually felt a hint of danger in his heart.

"Boom!!"

Before Lie Jie Baro could think further……

The Soul-Cutting Sword in Luo Jia's hand suddenly turned into black spirit-particle flames, and immediately those flames wrapped around Luo Jia~

In just a moment, Luo Jia's black short hair instantly grew longer and longer until it reached her waist, then stopped!

And Luo Jia's body was also wrapped in white bandages at this moment! Immediately afterward, the black spiritual pressure, like flames, jumped around Luo Jia~

"What is the name of this move?!"

Lie Jie Baro stared at Luo Jia before him, his heart pounding nonstop.

"The name of this move is……"

"Final Moon Fang Heaven Pierce……"

"……No Moon!!"

After hearing Lie Jie Baro's words, Luo Jia calmly spoke the name of this move.

After speaking, Luo Jia seemed to recall something and added: "True Slaying Moon, knockoff version!"

"Boom!"

Having said that, Luo Jia immediately swung her arm at Lie Jie Baro.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a line that spread like ink in the world descended from the sky and heavily struck Lie Jie Baro's body~

"Cough……"

As for Lie Jie Baro, who was struck in the hand by Luo Jia Paramiya's killing blow originally intended to deal with You Ha Ba He, his pupils twitched slightly.
