Just when Yamabuki was about to rush up and slap Soul King, he heard the sound of a door opening behind him. Looking back, he saw the monk Ichibe was standing there with a strange expression on his face. Seeing Yamabuki's actions, he coughed lightly.
"Although the Soul King cannot move, please still respect him. After all, we are able to live to this day thanks to His Majesty the Soul King. So, can you please get off the Soul King first?" the monk said with a wry smile.
Yamabuki shook his hands awkwardly and had to get off the Soul King.
"The conversation between you and Soul King has ended. Please leave this hall now. I will be responsible for protecting the safety of His Majesty Soul King." After the monk said this, he directly dragged Yamabuki out of the hall. But just as Yamabuki left the hall, he was once again caught by Nimaiya.
"What are you doing here?" Yamabuki asked curiously.
Nimaiya smiled and said, "Your Zanpakuto is very strange. It is a cut of your own soul, but in this case it cannot be considered a true god of shinigami. If you are willing, I can help you recast your Zanpakuto..."
"Thank you! I don't want to!" Yamabuki refused without hesitation.
I have swallowed a piece of the Soul King's flesh under his coaxing and trickery. Although my reiatsu has increased, who knows if there will be any side effects? Maybe these two people in front of me are planning how to cut me into a human stick and make me the new Soul King. They also want to reforge my Zanpakutō? Are you kidding?! I would be an idiot if I agreed to this.
This is also a product of the system, after all. In terms of quality, it should be no worse than the one made by the Sword God.
Seeing that Yamabuki was so determined, the Sword God did not force him.
"I'm not interested in knowing the conversation between you and the Soul King, but I want to ask you a very important question. Do you want to join the Zero Squad?" The monk asked seriously, "Protecting the Soul King is protecting the world. Every living being in the Three Realms can only live in the world by stepping on the corpse of the Soul King. Everyone has the responsibility to protect the Soul King, and I think you are no exception. How about it? Do you want to join our Zero Squad?"
"Absolutely not! My ultimate goal is to retire. How can I retire after joining Squad Zero? As far as I know, you have been working for a million years? Do you have five social insurances and one housing fund? Do you have paid vacations? None of them, right? I'd better just be a staff officer of the Gotei 13. I feel pretty good, and the Soul King just told me that there will be a catastrophe in this world soon. Don't you, Squad Zero, plan to join the war?" asked Yamabuki.
The monk said with a smile, "As long as the three realms are still in balance, I will not take action even if all lives are destroyed and the sky and the earth are broken, unless the enemy can attack the Soul King's palace and threaten the Soul King's safety."
"Forget it, please take me down." Yamabuki said. He didn't want to stay in this place for even a minute longer.
"Since your attitude is so firm, I won't force you. Okay, I'll send you down now." The monk casually opened a portal that led directly to the underworld. He pushed with his big hand and pushed Yamabuki down directly.
After Yamabuki left, Sword God Ōetsu Nimaiya spoke up, "Is it okay to leave such an unstable factor alone? This doesn't seem like your style."
The monk laughed and said, "Just trust the judgment of His Majesty the Soul King. The Soul King said that this boy can change the world, so this boy can definitely change the world."
…
By the time Yamabuki reacted, he had already appeared in the First Squadron's barracks.
"What kind of technology is this? So advanced?" Yamabuki said in amazement. He was lucky to come back safe and sound, but from now on, he would probably be targeted by that damn monk. Once anything happened to the Soul King, that damn monk would take him as well!
This piece of meat is not that tasty.
"Yamabuki, you're back?"
The captain's voice came from behind, and Yamabuki finally felt safe when he saw the captain appear beside him.
"Captain, gather all the senior members of the Gotei 13 immediately. I have something very important to say." Yamabuki said in a deep voice.
Soon, all the captains of the Gotei 13 gathered here.
"Everyone, this time I went to the Soul King Palace to have a direct conversation with His Majesty the Soul King. The Soul King told me that the Quincy army will attack in half a year. We must be prepared within this half year." Yamabuki said in a deep voice.
Half a year?
Everyone had a heavy expression on their face. For them, who had lived for hundreds of years, half a year was too fast.
Yamabuki glanced at the captains in front of him. Now the Gotei 13 has not yet been formed, and there are still several first-generation captains who have not been found. Moreover, based on the meaning revealed between the lines of the Soul King, his Bankai is very likely to have a certain restraining effect on The Almighty. He must learn Bankai within half a year so that he can have a better chance of survival.
"Captain, during these six months, we must absorb powerful people from all Soul Society at all costs to strengthen the power of the Gotei 13. Only in this way can we face the crisis that will come in six months." Yamabuki said with a grave expression.
According to the Soul King, Yhwach was most likely coming to kill him with The Almighty intact.
When I was reading comics in my previous life, the analysis of The Almighty was divided into two parts.
This part is about seeing with your eyes, seeing into the future.
A person has countless choices in his life, and countless possibilities arise, just like the sand in the sky. But no matter how you change, the result of destiny is just the movement from one grain of sand to another. The Almighty can overlook all the results and control all changes in the future.
The second part of his ability is to change the future. Yhwach can attack directly from the future. For example, when he was fighting against Ichibe, he first seized the monk's Bankai and then launched an attack three seconds in the future. As soon as the three seconds were up, the monk was dismembered by his own Bankai.
There is also Ichigo Kurosaki's True Bankai, whose attack power is unmatched in the world, but Yhwach broke the sword directly from the future and destroyed the entire future, cutting off the cause and effect from the root. Even Orihime Inoue's power of rejection could not restore the sword. In the end, it was his cousin Tsukishima who used his power to change the past to add a trace of cause and effect to reverse the situation.
Think of it this way, the Almighty are almost invincible powers.
Moreover, at this time period, Aizen was not even born, so Yamabuki could only pin all his hopes on his Bankai. He didn't know what ability his Bakai was, and it should be related to space.
"Everyone, the survival of the three realms depends on the battle in half a year. Please do everything you can to become stronger in these six months and save this precarious world!" Yamabuki said in a deep voice.
