Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 785 Battle
"Definitely win!"

Following this passionate shout, cheers from more people echoed across the battlefield.

Their morale received an unprecedented boost at this moment, as if an invisible force was injected into their bodies, allowing them to regain the courage to fight.

Originally, the frustration and despair caused by the inability to use Bankai was like a thick dark cloud hanging over the hearts of every Shinigami.

However, at this moment, the dark clouds were torn apart by a powerful force, and the sun shone on the battlefield again.

They knew that as long as Captain-General Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was present, they would have a chance of defeating those arrogant Quincies.

The captain, the strongest god of death in a thousand years, his existence itself is a kind of belief, a power that can turn the tide of battle.

"The old captain finally took action."

In Squad Zero, some people were talking in low voices.

They are stationed in Soul Society and have been dealing with intelligence from the world of gods for a long time. Although they cannot directly participate in this war, they are very worried and nervous.

Hyoshubu Ichibei, the captain of Squad Zero, has returned to the Soul King Palace.

However, the members of Squad Zero did not take action.

On the one hand, this is not their duty. Their duty is only to protect the Spirit King and ensure the stability of the Three Realms.

On the other hand, they need to be prepared for the reaction from the divine world.

The omniscient and omnipotent God King may not be interested in them, but that may not be the case for ordinary gods and gods of destruction.

What if they think this is a good opportunity and take advantage of it to launch an attack?
Therefore, even though Squad Zero felt very sad about the casualties of the Shinigami, they could only watch helplessly.

After all, before they became Squad Zero, they also stayed in the Soul Society.

Their hearts were also filled with sympathy and worry about death.

However, in order to guard against the world of gods, they must not act rashly.

This is their duty and their mission.

On that blazing battlefield, there was a thick smell of smoke and dust.

A firm belief comparable to faith burns in the hearts of the Grim Reapers, as if it is the flame of their souls, illuminating the way forward.

Under the guidance of this belief, the captain-general Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, the warrior known as the strongest god of death in a thousand years, successfully restored the originally depressed morale with just one outburst of spiritual pressure.

The spiritual pressure swept across the battlefield like a violent storm, instantly pushing the originally low morale to a climax. The Shinigami seemed to be awakened by this power, and their eyes became firm and bright, as if they had experienced a baptism of the soul.

Those Grim Reapers who were originally afraid and retreating seemed to be injected with new strength at this moment.

They were like ignited flames, burning their lives and courage, launching a fierce attack on the enemy. Their attacks were as surging as the tide, one wave after another, catching the Quincies off guard.

The Quincies originally thought that they could easily defeat the Shinigami with their careful planning and powerful strength.

However, they did not expect that the morale of the Grim Reapers would be reignited at the critical moment and burst out with such amazing power.

They were so shocked by the fearlessness of the Grim Reapers that they were unable to organize an effective resistance for a while.

The flashes of swords and sabers intersected, and spiritual pressure collided with each other, making a deafening roar.

The Grim Reapers were like mad beasts, rushing towards the enemy again and again, attacking with all their might, as if they wanted to integrate their lives into this blow.

The Quincies were busy dodging the attacks of the Shinigami while also looking for opportunities to counterattack.

"What a terrifying spiritual pressure! My hair stands on end." A Quincy couldn't help but exclaimed as he dodged the attack. He had never seen such a powerful spiritual pressure before, as if it could destroy all obstacles in its way.

"If I could take away his Bankai..."

A gleam of greed flashed in the other Quincy's eyes.

He knew that Bankai was one of the most powerful skills of the Shinigami. If they could take away the captain-general's Bankai, then they would have a chance to turn the tide of the battle.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. What if I take it away from you?"

A Quincy nearby interrupted him coldly.

Even if they were able to take away the Captain-General's Bankai, they would not be able to unleash its true power.

"He is just an old man who has passed his prime. Your Majesty has never regarded him as a qualified opponent."

Another Quincy said with disdain.

They believe that although Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni might have been the strongest god of death a thousand years ago, so many years have passed and his strength must have been much less than before.

Moreover, their Majesty Yhwach is invincible, and even the strongest god of death in a thousand years cannot be compared with him.

At this moment, an even more powerful aura came crushing down from the other side of Soul Society.

The momentum was so powerful that it seemed to be able to shake the entire world.

Everyone felt the presence of this momentum. They looked up and saw a figure slowly emerging from the air.

That's Yhwach!

He looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni from afar, and their eyes met in the air, as if they could penetrate countless space and time.

"Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni!"

Yhwach's voice sounded low and majestic.

"I didn't expect that your old bones could still burst out such a powerful spiritual pressure."

"Yhwach!"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni also responded without showing any weakness.

The two people's eyes collided in the air, and the air suddenly became quiet.

Everyone on the battlefield felt the oppressive atmosphere, as if even breathing had become difficult.

However, in this oppressive atmosphere, an even more powerful spiritual pressure began to boil up. The spiritual pressure was so strong that it seemed to be able to destroy all obstacles in its way.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's eyes were as sharp as an eagle. Through layers of darkness, he accurately locked onto his target - Yhwach, the invisible lord of the empire.

He took a deep breath, as if absorbing all the coldness around him into his body and turning it into motivation for him to move forward.

The captain did not choose to use instant step. He took a step forward, as if crossing the boundary of time and space. He disappeared from the spot in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already a hundred meters away.

Each of his steps was as powerful as thunder. The Quincies along the way were as fragile as ants under his feet. Their bodies quickly shriveled up under the captain-general's flames and turned into charred corpses.

Just as the captain was about to approach Yhwach's hiding place, a burly figure suddenly fell from the sky and blocked his way.
