Originally, Yamabuki wanted to complain, but then he thought, are there not enough bizarre abilities in this world?
The Almighty, The Antithesis, The Visionary, The Balance, The Deathdealing—all of them are abilities that couldn't be more bizarre.
Now, is the appearance of a magic-immune ability worth such a fuss?
Thinking of this, Yamabuki relaxed. So, it just means he needs to kill this person who is handsomer than him, right?
Yamabuki had Silver Radiance Angel withdraw from its released state, then charged forward with his blade, slashing wildly. Yamabuki's blade was already very fast, but this Newton's brother, Mardon's sword, was not much slower than his own. All of his attacks were parried by the opponent. From mid-air to the ground, sparks and lightning flew, yet Yamabuki couldn't even scratch the opponent.
Mardon calmly said, "As His Majesty's strongest shield, I can not only nullify all special abilities, but my own martial prowess is also very high. Otherwise, how could I command the Sternritter?"
As he spoke, Mardon's sword thrust forward with extreme speed, forcing Yamabuki to retreat. At this moment, the other Sternritter members had reacted and began attacking Yamabuki and Saitō Furōfushi.
Yamabuki's heart sank when he saw this scene. He knew his plan had failed. Despite all his calculations, he hadn't accounted for such a genius among the Quincy.
Newton's brother, I remember you. Just you wait, I'll flip your brother's coffin lid in the future. Oh, right, I know Newton was cremated.
Saitō Furōfushi raised the Crushing Wolf Fang in his hand and slammed it heavily onto the ground, causing the earth to crack and the entire palace to shake.
However, these Sternritter members were all first-rate powerhouses. Facing so many masters at once, even Saitō Furōfushi and Yamabuki felt extremely strained. Finally, these more than twenty people surrounded them. Yamabuki could use his spatial abilities to escape pursuit, but what about Saitō?
Mardon looked at Yamabuki with an indifferent expression: "Shinigami, you overestimate your abilities. Today, you are doomed. Lay down your weapons and surrender, and I will spare your lives."
Yamabuki blinked and said to Saitō Furōfushi, who was back-to-back with him, "How about we surrender after all?"
"Alright! But before we surrender, I want to cut off that sissy's head," Saitō Furōfushi glared fiercely at Mardon.
If Mardon hadn't used his ability to nullify his own, the Sternritter might have already collapsed.
"Good point! I agree too," Yamabuki said with a laugh. Mardon looked coldly at Yamabuki and Saitō Furōfushi. Since you two are unwilling to surrender, then die! When humans die, their souls go to Soul Society, but what happens to Shinigami after death?
He didn't know, but Yamabuki knew that his soul would definitely go to hell. After all, the reishi density of his soul was extremely high, making it impossible to dissipate, so it could only be sent to hell in the end.
"It seems the other side won't accept our surrender terms. We two can only fight to the death!" Yamabuki looked at the menacing Sternritter closing in on him, knowing that his chances today were slim. His body regenerated quickly, but he wasn't immortal. Surrounded by so many Captain-level powerhouses, he was doomed.
Yamabuki found that facing imminent death, there was no ripple in his heart. He could accept everything calmly. Does this mean he has also grown?
However, just as the Sternritter were about to launch their attack, Mardon's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly, because he discovered a sword had pierced through him from behind, emerging from his body.
It was a thin, slender sword, with a blood groove for bleeding, a sword specially designed for assassination.
"You two were hard to find! You know I hate trouble the most!" a weak voice came from behind Mardon, revealing a disheartened face.
Yamabuki and Saitō Furōfushi were stunned when they saw this face, because the person who suddenly attacked and injured Mardon was none other than Shijima Chigiri.
"How... how is this possible! I didn't even notice someone appeared behind me!" Mardon kept spitting blood.
"I forgot to tell you, this sword of mine is coated with a powerful poison. If you don't want to die, you'd better treat it quickly! Also, I'm responsible for taking my companions away." Shijima Chigiri pulled out his sword and used Shunpo to appear beside Yamabuki and Saitō Furōfushi.
"Leave? Are you kidding? How can you leave?" Bard roared, while Mardon's face had turned purplish-blue. If he wasn't given emergency treatment quickly, he would be in danger.
Shijima Chigiri looked at the Sternritter members with an indifferent expression, saying emotionlessly, "My Bankai is very powerful. Even I don't dare to use it lightly. Today, I'll make an exception and let you see my Bankai!"
The Sternritter members were all on edge. They had all witnessed Saitō Furōfushi's power just now. If Mardon hadn't used his Schrift ability in time to neutralize Saitō Furōfushi's "Lion's Roar," who knew how many would have died.
Shijima Chigiri slowly wiped his sword. Every one of his movements made the Sternritter extremely nervous. Now, they no longer dared to underestimate these Shinigami.
"Bankai, Senra Bansho!" Shijima Chigiri released his Bankai, a strange smile on his face, and then...
Then, Yamabuki, Saitō Furōfushi, and Shijima Chigiri all vanished from their spots simultaneously.
The Sternritter members' hearts tightened, thinking the opponents were using super-high-speed movement, but after waiting for a long time, the opponents did not attack. Bard suddenly said, "I know! Their ability is invisibility; they've become invisible and run away!"
The Sternritter suddenly understood. So that was it. That man who looked like he had kidney deficiency had been bluffing all along!
Soon, Mardon also received treatment. Although the sword of Shijima Chigiri was coated with a potent poison, the Quincy also had a very comprehensive medical system, so removing the poison from him was not difficult.
"Squad Leader, what do we do now?" Bard looked at Mardon dejectedly. It wasn't just Bard; everyone in the Sternritter was extremely downcast.
These Shinigami, with only three people, managed to toy with the entire high command of the Wandenreich, which severely dampened their morale. Some even began to doubt whether this war could be won.
Mardon's face was pale. Although the poison in his body had been neutralized, he couldn't participate in battle for a short period. He could only say with a bitter expression, "Our location has been exposed. We must retreat immediately and find a new foothold. Yhwach is still in slumber, and I am severely injured. If the Shinigami bring a large force over later, we are doomed. We must relocate our base. We will go to Hueco Mundo."
