The light bounced back and headed towards Litjie Barrow, who had transformed into a strange bird.

This ultimate power that penetrates everything is difficult to resist even for Lijie Barrow himself.

In an instant, one side of his body was severely injured.

But even so, he still didn’t die.

On the contrary, he became even more angry because he was injured by Ise Nanao with the Eight Mirror Sword.

As the captain of the Divine Pardon Guard, Litjie-Barrow is an extremely special existence. He is not a human being but a true god. Ordinary means cannot kill him at all. Therefore, even if Kyoraku Shunsui used his extremely powerful Bankai, he could not kill him.

However, at this moment, in front of Ise Nanao, a woman who looked extremely weak, he was injured.

This was one thing Litjie-Barrow could not tolerate.

“You are just a mere mortal, yet you hurt me so much? In the next blow, you will be completely annihilated!”

Lijie-Barrow’s angry voice was heard, and then he raised his hands above his head, leaned his body upward, and the spirit particles condensed between his hands, turning into an extremely huge trumpet.

Then, an extremely sharp voice was heard.

The sound had an extremely powerful penetrating power. Wherever it passed, everything was destroyed. It came towards Kyoraku Shunsui and Ise Nanao.

This is the “God’s Trumpet”, and it is also Lijie Barrow’s most powerful move.

The ability to penetrate everything can itself penetrate everything.

And when it is combined with invisible sounds and released through sound waves, it is even more terrifying.

This kind of power cannot be avoided by blocking the ears and isolating the sound, because what is scary is never the sound, but the terrifying shock waves mixed in the sound.

A powerful force swept out, and many buildings collapsed wherever it passed.

Ise Nanao felt her ears buzzing as she listened to the sharp sound.

But she still did not retreat, because behind her was the captain Shunsui Kyoraku, and further behind were Byakuya Kuchiki, Rukia Kuchiki, and Kaien Shiba, her companions who had been badly injured.

At this time, she was the only one who was not injured.

She can’t retreat.

She wants to protect everyone.

A sharp voice came, and she couldn’t hear clearly what the captain said. However, following the captain’s instructions, Ise Nanao still swung the Eight Mirror Sword in her hand unswervingly.

A dazzling light was released.

Even though Lijie-Barrow’s final attack was released through sound, it was still bounced back by the power of the Eight Mirror Sword. All the shock waves in the area centered on Ise Nanao were bounced back.

As a result, all the surrounding buildings were destroyed by Litjie-Barrow’s “God’s Trumpet”, and the area centered on Ise Nanao and behind it was all preserved, which also avoided the death of many people.

“how so?!”

Litjie Barrow could no longer accept such an outcome.

It would be fine if the previous judgment of God was blocked.

As a result, even his strongest move was blocked.

Litje-Barrow grew angrier.

Under the guidance of Kyoraku Shunsui, Ise Nanao performed instant step and took the initiative to attack Lijie-Barrow. Although Ise Nanao has always been in charge of clerical work in the Eighth Division and has never been in a battle, it does not mean that she cannot fight at all.

On the contrary, after graduating from the Shinō Spiritual Arts Academy, she first joined the 11th Division. She had a very good relationship with the 11th Division’s vice-captain, Lisa Yadomaru, and learned a lot of combat skills from her.

Yadomaru Lisa made her understand that even if she couldn’t awaken her Zanpakutō, she could still become a strong person by relying on slashing techniques and kidō.

But later, because of Kyoraku Shunsui, she was transferred to the Eighth Division.

Perform instant step.

In an instant, Ise Nanao came in front of Lijie Barrow.

Seeing that the opponent did not have any passive defense and actually dared to come in front of him, Lijie Barrow became angry and embarrassed. As he raised his hand, a light flashed, and he used another move of “Judgment of God”. Although “God’s Trumpet” was more powerful, the pre-swing of the trumpet was a bit long. When it comes to instant attacks, “Judgment of God” is better.

The light came in front of Ise Nanao.

Ise Nanao simply swung the Eight Mirror Sword, and the attack was bounced back.

Although she had many questions about the origin of the Zanpakuto in her hand, Ise Nanao also understood that now was not the time to think about these things.

She only knew that the knife in her hand could restrain Lijie Barrow’s ability.

The opponent’s terrifying attack can be bounced back by his own sword.

Keep swinging the knife!

As expected, Lijie Barrow’s “Judgment of God” was bounced back again.

Under Ise Nanao’s manipulation, the reflected light went straight towards Litjie Barrow himself.

Faced with this ability to penetrate everything, even as the person involved, Lijie Barrow had to try his best to hide.

Just as he was dodging.

Ise Nanao’s figure flashed, and thinking about some of the teachings of Yadomaru Lisa, she came to the side of Lijie Barrow and swung out with the Eight Mirror Sword in her hand.

It was clearly a Zanpakuto that was about the size of a ruler, but when it approached Litjie-Barrow, Litjie-Barrow felt a natural sense of oppression from it.

This feeling of oppression made him feel as if a mountain was pressing on his back, making it difficult for him to move.

“What on earth is this knife?”

Of course, he didn’t know that the Eight Mirror Sword was a sword specially used to fight against gods.

This knife is of no use when it comes to mundane things.

If Lijie Barrow was not a god, this sword would naturally not be able to restrain him. On the contrary, if he was a real god, this sword would be his biggest nemesis.

This is the sword that the ancestors of the five great nobles used to divide the Spirit King.

Even the Spirit King could be cut into pieces by this sword.

Even if Lijie Barrow is a god, even if he is related to the Spirit King, he cannot cause any waves when facing this knife.

When the power he was good at was restrained, the situation was reversed in a short moment, and Litjie Barrow was defeated and died.

Of course, there were some minor incidents during this process.

That is, after Lijie Barrow died, his body actually split into many tiny strange birds, which struggled and flew around.

Ise Nanao thought that it was Lijie Barrow who was resurrected again.

After all, the opponent had come back to life again under Captain Kyoraku’s Bankai, so Ise Nanao could only rely on the Eight Mirror Swords to continue to kill these tiny strange birds.

Fortunately, these strange birds were not strong, and the Eight Mirror Sword had a strong ability to restrain them. In a short period of time, Ise Nanao solved all the split strange birds, and the opponent did not come back to life again.

“team leader!”

After dealing with these things, Ise Nanao came to her captain with mixed feelings.

“Nanao, you are now able to stand on your own.”

Kyoraku Shunsui praised Ise Nanao like this.

Ise Nanao didn’t say anything.

Kyoraku Shunsui knew that Nanao wanted to know more about other things than his praise.

Therefore, he had no intention of hiding it any longer, after all, the Eight Mirror Sword had already been given to Nanao.

“I know you have a lot of questions in your heart. Now that the enemy has been dealt with, I can tell you slowly.”

Thus, a tortuous and little-known story was told by Kyoraku Shunsui.

“I once had an elder brother, and naturally, an elder sister-in-law.”

“My brother and I didn’t have a good relationship. We used to argue a lot. But everything changed after my eldest sister-in-law married into the Jingle family. She was a very gentle person. Her presence eased the relationship between my brother and me. However, the good times didn’t last long. Not long after she married into our Jingle family, my brother passed away…”

“All this is because of a curse.”

“A curse haunts the sister-in-law’s house!”

“The Ise family is a Shinto family that has been passed down from generation to generation. Women have always been the head of the family. Whenever a man marries into the Ise family, he will die soon after having a child. In order to avoid the family curse, my eldest sister-in-law chose to run away from home. She thought that if she was far away from the family and did not let a man marry into the family, the curse would not happen, but everything went against her wishes.”

“After her brother died, due to the rule that noble women must not have any contact with their husband’s family after their husband’s death, the pregnant sister-in-law was sent back to her parents’ home… After returning, the sister-in-law began to re-examine the curse, and she finally determined that the source of the curse was the sacred sword passed down from generation to generation in the Ise family – the Eight Mirror Sword.”

“…So, she entrusted this sword to me privately, hoping to break the curse.”

“I didn’t expect that this sword would eventually fall into your hands…”

After Kyoraku Shunsui finished telling the long story.

Ise Nanao was already in tears without realizing it.

She knew everything that had happened.

When she was very young, when her mother was still alive, she often saw a mysterious person coming to her home. At that time, she was still young and didn’t know who the other person was.

And now, after Kyoraku Shunsui finished telling her story, how could she not understand that this was clearly her own captain.

The captain is his own uncle.

This also explains why he takes such good care of himself.

At the same time, she also learned the cause of her mother’s death.

……

Just when Kyoraku Shunsui and others had defeated the enemy and were telling stories to Ise Nanao during their rest period.

On another battlefield.

Ichigo was also in the middle of a fierce battle with the enemy in front of him.

The enemy he encountered was named Gerard Valkyrie, whose ability was “Miracle” and whose true identity was the Heart of the Soul King.

Natsuki once guessed that Yhwach was the Heart of the Soul King, and even secretly compared the difference between Gremid’s abilities and his. But in fact, Natsuki was wrong. Yhwach was not the Heart of the Soul King. The Gerald Valkyrie in front of him was the real Heart of the Soul King.

This is not surprising.

After all, Xia Mu has traveled through time for so many years.

It’s impossible to remember everything clearly.

In this war, it was already very difficult for him to remember most of the abilities.

As the heart of the Soul King, Gerard’s abilities are very similar to those of Gremmy. The difference is that Gremmy’s abilities are activated actively, and he can visualize various things through imagination, while Gerard is different. He can only activate his abilities passively.

The power of miracles allows him to transform anything that is unfavorable to him into something favorable.

From this point of view, it is actually very similar to Haschwald’s ability to reconcile the world.

All kinds of negative factors can be reversed by Gerrard, and correspondingly, after the reversal, his own strength will become stronger and stronger.

In addition, in the state of perfect holy body, he possesses the Sword of Hope and the Shield of Justice. The Sword of Hope is condensed by Gerard’s strength and faith. If the sword is damaged, the injury will be fed back to the person who damaged the sword. As for the Shield of Justice, it has super strong defense.

Judging from these abilities, Gerard is undoubtedly a very tough enemy, but unfortunately the one he encountered is Ichigo Kurosaki.

Even because of Natsuki, there are fewer stories about Ichigo Kurosaki.

But as the protagonist of the original work, Ichigo is the person favored by the whole world’s luck. His birth itself is a miracle.

The good fortune here is not just false words, but facts.

Such things do exist in this world.

Haschwald was able to balance fortune and misfortune through his ability to reconcile the world.

The current Ichigo is even more powerful than in the original story, thanks to some interference from Natsuki.

Even though Gerard has the power of “miracle”, he is still defeated by Ichigo time and time again.

After all, in the original work, Ichigo at this moment can confront Yhwach head-on, and his combat power is comparable to Yhwach’s.

Although the members of the Divine Pardon Guard are very powerful, they also have their so-called limits.

“Your Majesty!”

“Please grant me greater power!”

Faced with the terrifying pressure brought by Ichigo, Gerard began to pray.

In his mind, the god he served was Youhabach.

Even though he himself was formed from the heart of the Soul King, His Majesty Yhwach was the Soul King’s son. When the Soul King was deposed by the five great nobles, he was like a god in his mind.

Of course, such prayers could not gain strength from Youhabach.

After all, Yhwach had fallen into a deep sleep at this moment, and needed to use Haschwald’s World Harmony to digest and absorb the power of the Soul King during his sleep. How could he have the mood to care about Gerald? It was already the greatest mercy that he was able to resurrect Gerald before he fell asleep.

All Gerard needs to do is to prove his worth, block the enemies coming to the Soul King Palace, and hold out until he wakes up.

If Gerard is unable to do such a thing, it means that he has lost the value of his existence and there is no need for him to live.

Even if such a guy is not killed by the enemy, Yhwach will not let him go after he wakes up.

After the prayer, Gerard’s faith was re-gathered. Immediately, in front of Ichigo, he used the final form of his perfect body “God’s Power”. In an instant, his already sturdy body became even more sturdy, and his powerful strength burst out. (End of this chapter)
