Chapter 641 Top 5? Special Combat Strength!
Byakuya Kuchiki and Renji Abarai are still in danger and unconscious. Although Yamamoto's future is still uncertain, this good start is a good thing, which can be regarded as a temporary relief for the Gotei 13.
For them, these two days are too long.
Compared with the Seireitei, which is shrouded in the haze of defeat and pain, the Quincies of the Invisible Empire should be able to celebrate this overwhelming victory.
This is indeed the case. The brief riot in Ginka Castle caused by the appearance of Hongjiang and others has ended. The ordinary holy soldiers are all confident. They believe that even if the final decisive battle has not yet come, under the leadership of Youhabach, victory will belong to them.
As the core of the Invisible Empire, the Stern Cross Knights ushered in a rare collective gathering. Compared with the confidence and optimism of the lower class, the atmosphere in Youhabach's palace at this moment seems a bit solemn.
In the dim hall, Yhwach sat on the throne, Haschwald stood at his lower left, and the remaining twenty members of the Stern Cross Knights stood in two rows facing them, and this was all the top combat power left in the Invisible Empire.
This raid on the Soul Society was completely a great victory. With only Lloyd Lloyd's life, the enemy's leader Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was killed, and thousands of officers and soldiers were killed.
The most important thing is that they have a good definition of the enemy's strength. As the top combat power of the Death God, the Gotei 13 is completely vulnerable in front of them!
But such a victory did not make the people present start to celebrate in advance, and even their faces were more solemn than one another, not like the side that had just won a victory.
If it is considered that Hongjiang had caused a riot in Ginja City before, they really can't be considered a complete victory.
Bambietta, Berenic, Jerome, Lloyd Lloyd, four members of the Stern Cross Knights have been killed by Hongjiang directly or indirectly.
In addition to Lloyd Lloyd who died in the battle of Seireitei, the entire Stern Cross Knights suffered a loss of nearly one-fifth.
Moreover, since the star seal was taken away, with Urahara Kisuke's ability, I believe that when the next decisive battle comes, the captains of the Gotei 13 will no longer be restrained when facing them.
So in general, even if Yamamoto was killed this time, it cannot be regarded as a hearty victory for the Invisible Empire. If you are more cautious, it can even be said to be a miserable victory.
"You are afraid of the battle, I think you have realized your incompetence, right?" Haschwald broke the suffocating silence in the hall, but the rebuke issued in the calmest tone made the people in the first row feel as if a mountain was pressing on them, and they could not move at all.
"You all bear the glorious name of the Star Cross. Failure is an insult to it, not to mention that cowardice before the battle is an unforgivable sin." Hasward took a step towards the people below with each sentence, and his cold voice seemed to freeze the blood. "Are you ready to pay the price for your shameful behavior?"
"It's our incompetence, please punish us, Your Majesty!" Kilujie immediately knelt on one knee, pretending to be punished by the blade.
"It's our incompetence, please punish us, Your Majesty!"
"..."
"Please punish us, Your Majesty!"
Bi, Najakup, Litoto, Gadis, Minina, and Giselle followed suit and knelt on one knee. They knew that if they said one more word to excuse themselves at this time, they would definitely die.
Not to mention that the six of them watched Hongjiang kill Lloyd, and finally the other party took everyone away from Silver Frame City.
Failure is intolerable. This kind of behavior of not even having the courage to fight is unprecedented since the founding of the Stern Cross Knights. Therefore, even if they quickly admit their mistakes, it is still unknown whether they can save their lives.
"Yes, at least you have not lost the last bit of dignity."
Hastwood came to Kielge, drew his sword and put it on his shoulder. Just when he was about to swing the sword, Yuhabach on the throne suddenly spoke, "
Leave them alive, Haschwood. They will still be useful next."
Hastwood immediately put away his sword, turned around and bowed, saying: "This is your kindness to them, Your Majesty."
The six people were relieved when they heard this. Of course, they didn't want to lose their lives like this. Moreover, they also wanted to get back at Butterfly Tsukako for giving them such a shame.
"But it is a fact that they don't have the courage to fight to the death, and the punishment they deserve should still be meted out." Yhwach leaned on the throne and said lazily: "Cut off one of their arms, Hasward."
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a silver light flashed, and the left hands of the six people in the first row, including Kiluje, were all cut off. Blood gushed out, and a faint fishy smell filled the palace.
"You will be allowed to reattach your arms later. I hope the pain can awaken your courage to fight!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission!"
Yhwach slowly stood up from the throne, and his eyes moved from Kiluje and others to the other members of the Stern Cross Knights standing behind.
"Similarly, I also send this sentence to you, my proud Knights of the Star Cross. I hope you will be honored and courageous, and bring the victory I want to me."
Everyone, including Hasward, knelt on one knee, with their right fists clenched on their chests, "We will not disappoint your Majesty!"
"Everyone stand up."
Everyone present stood up slowly, and Bazby in the crowd looked at the man standing high in front of the throne, but his brows were slightly frowned.
Yhwach didn't notice Bazby's incompatibility. His deep voice echoed in the palace, "Of course, even if you have the courage and reasons to win, you must be careful with some special people. The rest of the people are destined to be losers in my eyes. Only they are possible accidents."
Yhwach waved his hand, "So my Star Cross Knights, engrave the following names deeply in your minds, but these names are not reasons for you to fail, but to make you have a stronger desire to defeat their desires!"
"I will call them special combat forces, a total of five people!"
"First, Ichigo Kurosaki, has unpredictable evolution possibilities and worrying potential. If you meet him, you must exclude him as much as possible!"
"Second, Kenpachi Zaraki, an excellent fighter "Third, Ichibei, the Hyoshubu of the Zero Squad, is a Shinigami who is older than Yamamoto Shigekuni. He is a wise man who knows everything about Soul Society and is our biggest enemy!" "Fourth, Sosuke Aizen. Even if we exclude his deep thoughts and strange methods, his unparalleled spiritual pressure alone is enough to rank him as one of the special combat forces." "Finally, Kisuke Urahara. His mediocre combat power is not enough to cover up his outstanding talent. His endless methods are his real talent, and 'methods' are his power to solve all problems and difficulties." Yhwach's red eyes swept over everyone present, "Do you remember the names of the above five people?" "We will never forget!" The Stern Cross Knights nodded in response. Bazby looked up and saw an expression on Yhwach's face that he had never seen before. It was not obvious, but he always felt that the man in front of him, who was always confident, seemed to be hesitating about something.
It seemed that something was stuck in his chest, and Bazby was sure that he would definitely say it.
Sure enough, after a while, Yhwach spoke again: "The last person is Chouzuka Hiroe..."
He paused, as if thinking about how to evaluate the person who he evaluated as mediocre but caused them great trouble.
"Hiroe Chouzuka, with a keen sense of smell like a wild animal, can unravel the truth of the world, as if he has the ability to see into the future."
"The extreme calmness and ruthlessness will make him reborn. Perhaps he will not be your enemy for the time being, but it does not mean that he is safe."
"If he finds himself, he will be worthy of the name of Special Record..."
"But extreme contradictions may also lead him to mediocrity..."
"Pure 'unknown', a surprise whose face cannot be known until the last moment, he will be an interesting opponent." Yhwach raised the corner of his mouth, "He will be a pleasant opponent, isn't he, everyone?"
