Chapter 222 - Chapter 222: How Could Such a Terrifying Captain Yamamoto Fail?

[Countless viewers watching through the Three Realms Projection were instantly brought to their knees, unable to withstand the overwhelming spiritual pressure radiating from Tenchi Kaijin.]

RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

[Everything within the technique's range was being reduced to ash—it was as if the end of the world had arrived.]

[Even after being filtered and diluted through the Three Realms Projection system, the overflowing spiritual pressure still possessed incomparably powerful killing intent and oppressive force that struck fear into the hearts of countless viewers.]

[They all collapsed to the ground, not daring to face this catastrophic attack directly.]

Weaker souls likely fainted instantly, losing consciousness just as they had during the devastating techniques of Kurosaki Ichigo and others in previous battles.

[Captain-Commander Yamamoto's all-out assault—truly worthy of being called the strongest Shinigami's ultimate attack—had shocked audiences across all three realms.]

The Wandenreich's Terror

[Within the Wandenreich, most of the Quincy had also been shaken to the ground by this overwhelming display of power.]

[Their eyes contained unconcealable fear and shock.]

None of them could imagine what kind of being could possibly survive such an attack from Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

Perhaps only their Majesty could withstand something like this...

[Meanwhile, the Hollows and Arrancar in Hueco Mundo were experiencing similar shock, their reactions mirroring those in the other two realms.]

[Only a few powerhouses like Aizen could barely maintain their composure.]

[The weaker Arrancar were silent and trembling at this moment.]

If this attack had erupted in Hueco Mundo, even if Aizen didn't intervene, even if all the other members attempted defensive measures, they would prove utterly vulnerable and be reduced to ash in an instant.

This is truly a catastrophe!

As expected of the strongest Shinigami, Captain-Commander Yamamoto. If they really had to face him head-on, there would be only one outcome—death.

They wouldn't even need the Captain-Commander to use his Bankai—his Shikai alone could render them powerless to resist.

[Witnessing Captain-Commander Yamamoto's attack, even Aizen found himself impressed.]

There's no doubt that Captain-Commander Yamamoto's technique has reached the absolute pinnacle of destructive power. Even in my strongest state, engaging him in direct combat would not be the wisest course of action.

[Aizen observed with calculating interest.]

This was essentially Captain-Commander Yamamoto releasing all his spiritual pressure in a single instant—similar to Kurosaki Ichigo's Mugetsu technique.

To deal with such overwhelming power, frontal confrontation is obviously not the optimal strategy.

[However, Aizen didn't believe Captain-Commander Yamamoto was truly unbeatable.]

Regardless of my future strength after imprisonment in Muken, even during my time as a Shinigami captain, I could have dealt with Yamamoto-sensei effectively.

The key is avoiding direct confrontation and instead using alternative methods to redirect or dissipate his attacks.

[Aizen's analytical mind identified the crucial weakness.]

After all, Captain-Commander Yamamoto still possesses a very fatal flaw—his combat intelligence doesn't match his raw attack power.

Anyone with basic strategic knowledge could easily exploit this weakness.

[But Aizen also understood the implications of what they were witnessing.]

However, there's no doubt that Yhwach at this moment obviously has some method to counter this technique.

I wonder what approach he'll employ? Will he simply use the incredible power of his Almighty to eliminate Captain-Commander Yamamoto through future manipulation?

[With such questions occupying his thoughts, Aizen continued watching with keen interest, eager to see how events would unfold.]

[In Soul Society, Captain-Commander Yamamoto himself experienced very complicated emotions after witnessing his ultimate Bankai technique in action.]

[Though he was satisfied with the devastating power of his attack, he was forced to confront an uncomfortable truth.]

Yhwach in the future... it seems he continues to participate in battle after this.

So I ultimately failed to eliminate him completely?

[The realization was deeply troubling.]

What method did this Yhwach employ? Did he rely purely on his own strength to defeat me? Or did he resort to schemes and trickery like Aizen?

[Captain-Commander Yamamoto's mood grew increasingly complex as these questions plagued his thoughts.]

The chat group reflected the universal shock and confusion:

[Hitsugaya Toshiro: How... how could anyone survive that attack? That was Captain-Commander's ultimate technique!]

[Ukitake Jushiro: If Yhwach continues fighting after this, then he must possess some method we haven't seen yet...]

[Kyoraku Shunsui: The old man's power is absolutely terrifying, but I'm getting a bad feeling about what comes next.]

[Kuchiki Byakuya: Such overwhelming destructive force... yet if it proves insufficient, what hope do any of us have?]

[Zaraki Kenpachi: That was incredible! But if that bastard Yhwach can keep fighting after taking that hit... damn, what kind of monster is he?]

[Unohana Retsu: Captain-Commander... please tell me this technique was sufficient. The alternative is too terrible to consider.]

[Aizen Sosuke: Fascinating. Even after witnessing such overwhelming power, I suspect we're about to discover why Yhwach earned his reputation as the one who could threaten the Soul King himself.]

[Yhwach: Impressive, Yamamoto Shigekuni. Your flames burn as brilliantly as ever. But did you truly believe such a display would be sufficient to end our conflict?]

[Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: If my ultimate technique proves insufficient... then what darkness awaits Soul Society?]

[As the dust and ash from Tenchi Kaijin began to settle, an ominous silence fell over the battlefield.]

[Captain-Commander Yamamoto stood amid the devastation, his spiritual pressure still radiating intense heat, watching for any sign of his enemy's fate.]

[The false Yhwach appeared to have been completely obliterated—reduced to nothing more than scattered ash and lingering spiritual particles.]

[Yet something felt wrong. The silence was too complete, too convenient.]

After a thousand years of preparation, after all the planning and infiltration... could Yhwach really have been defeated so easily?

[A growing sense of unease began to creep into Captain-Commander Yamamoto's consciousness, though he couldn't yet identify its source.]

[The greatest victory in Soul Society's history might be about to transform into its most devastating defeat—but the true nature of that transformation remained hidden in the settling dust.]
