Chapter 617

But in reality, Head Captain Yamamoto did not directly nullify Astalos's ability; instead, he hid layer upon layer of seals upon his body, all for the sake of this very moment.

Looking at the smile that appeared on Astalos's face, Head Captain Yamamoto was not the sort of person who would ruin everything over some trivial matter.

One could say that, given the right circumstances, Head Captain Yamamoto would not hold back his full power the way Genryūsai's burden did for certain reasons.

If possible, Head Captain Yamamoto's power could even rival Genryūsai's burden at his peak state.

"Kid, although that mysterious power called Commandment upon your body is very strong, I do have ways to deal with it. Watch — this is the ability of Ichimonji!"

If Ichimonji's ability is to weaken or seal others' abilities, then White-Pen Ichimonji's ability is even more terrifying.

After Ichimonji erases others' abilities and true names, White-Pen Ichimonji can bestow new names upon them. If Head Captain Yamamoto bestows a name upon the erased thing, then the opponent will become as weak as an ant.

"This is… a sealing-type ability? My power has actually been sealed!"

Feeling the state of his body gradually weakening, Astalos's expression turned extremely grim. One had to know that Commandment itself was the embodiment of rules, because no one could defy the rules.

But Head Captain Yamamoto's Ichimonji was likewise an embodiment of rules, and compared to the Commandment that Astalos had absorbed, Head Captain Yamamoto's Commandment was even more terrifying.

Watching all of this, a hint of surprise also appeared in Aizen's eyes. After all, in Aizen's view, Head Captain Yamamoto's ability was simply too overbearing.

Even Genryūsai's burden, in Aizen's view, could not possibly gain any advantage against Head Captain Yamamoto in such a state.

"So this is your trump card, Head Captain? Being able to directly weaken others' power to the extreme — what a terrifying strength."

"Combined with the Royal Guard's already terrifying swordsmanship and Kidō prowess, perhaps the title of strongest Shinigami has long since changed hands!"

After sealing Astalos, Head Captain Yamamoto also came to Genryūsai's burden's side. Hearing Aizen's words, a disdainful smile also appeared on Head Captain Yamamoto's face.

"You think I'm already this strong now?"

"That's because none of you have ever seen this guy Yamamoto truly go all out. If he were to face you with his full power, you might have long since been reduced to a pile of charred ash."

"Even for me, any stronger technique would be useless, because Yamamoto's Ryūjin Jakka can directly burn away more than half the world!"

Looking at Genryūsai's burden beside him who said nothing, Head Captain Yamamoto's face was also filled with wariness.
