Chapter 1180: Sudden Appearance! Invincible Power

Terrifying flames ensnared Lucifer's body.

This was power capable of burning everything.

Yet, Yamamoto Genryūsai felt no joy; his brows were tightly furrowed.

Lucifer's black wings flared, sending out shockwaves that instantly dispersed the endless flames, "...... You are still a Shinigami after all!"

Lucifer sighed softly, and suddenly, several snakes appeared behind him, piercing through empty space at unimaginable speed, biting Yamamoto Genryūsai's arms in an instant.

Even Yamamoto Genryūsai could not dodge them in time.

"If it were not for my ability to suppress you! Perhaps you truly could have killed me."

Lucifer's words were sincere.

"Now! Just as before."

Master Yamamoto's expression remained unmoved; flames curled around his arms, burning the snakes to ash.

He swung his sword again, unleashing several Fire Long Juanfeng that forcibly pushed Lucifer back.

Every slash from Yamamoto Genryūsai carried immense force.

At one point, he even forced Lucifer onto the defensive.

But Yamamoto Genryūsai's expression grew increasingly... grim.

He could feel that after being bitten by the snakes, his spiritual energy was draining at a rate many times faster.

"...... A power that can suppress the soul?"

Forcing his opponent back, Yamamoto Genryūsai exhaled, repositioned himself, and his gaze turned deep.

"Just as I suspected! You are the Shinigami's mortal enemies."

On the other side.

Kuchiki Byakuya fought Azazel, but even with Senbonzakura's Bankai, he struggled to hold on, being utterly dominated.

Though he was a rare genius of the Soul Society, a captain-level expert.

Yet against Azazel, he was still hopelessly outmatched.

After all, Azazel was also a Lord of Hell, an equal to Lucifer.

Of course, Lucifer was the First Lord of Hell, his power far surpassing all other Lords.

But even so, Azazel was no one to underestimate.

Lucifer could stand shoulder to shoulder with Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

How could Kuchiki Byakuya possibly defeat Azazel, an equal to Lucifer? One might even say Azazel was merely playing with him, treating him like a toy.

Ukitake Retsu loosened her hair, revealing a swordsmanship of utmost terror.
