Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 803: The God of Destruction Rages the Invisible Empire

"Pfft!"

This knife was so fast that it almost transcended the constraints of time. It was not just a physical cut, but also a complete negation of the essence of Es Nott's existence.

Under Unohana Retsu's extraordinary attack, his figure instantly disintegrated like a scroll torn by an invisible hand.

Wherever the knife passed, not only were the physical boundaries of his body broken, but the fundamental meaning of his existence was ruthlessly denied, turning into tiny pieces of light and shadows flying all over the sky, each of which carried his unfulfilled dreams and deep reluctance to the passing of life, and finally dissipated in the invisible wind.

At this moment, even the air is filled with a faint sadness, which is the helplessness and sigh for the disappearance of life.

"Unohana-sama!"

The Gods of Destruction who witnessed this scene were all moved. In their eyes, there was awe for Unohana Retsu's powerful strength and grief for the sacrifice of their companions.

However, after this brief silence, they were more ignited by an unprecedented fighting spirit and vowed to avenge their dead companions.

At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps broke the silence at the scene, approaching silently like a ghost in the night wind.

Everyone looked up alertly, only to see a man in the standard white Quincy uniform stepping into the battlefield. His steps were steady and powerful, and every step seemed to be in step with an invisible beat.

He was a member of the Stern Cross Knights, wearing the iconic white uniform of the Quincy. His slender phoenix eyes were hidden under his short black hair, and the conspicuous scar at the left corner of his mouth seemed to be telling of past battles and glory.

He is Cangdu, whose sacred character is “I”, symbolizing the strong man of “steel”.

"You're the one who killed Buzby and Esnot?"

Cangdu's voice was deep and powerful, revealing unquestionable majesty.

His gaze lingered on Ace Nott's body for a moment, and then turned to Unohana Retsu, as if confirming something.

Unohana Retsu smiled slightly, and in that smile was anticipation for the upcoming battle.

In response to Cangdu's questioning, Unohana Retsu showed a faint smile on his face.

This smile shows both a welcome to the challenge and indifference to past battles.

She shook her head slightly and replied, "I did it, but I was not aware of Buzzby's fall. Although we, the Gods of Destruction, fight side by side, we each have our own responsibilities and paths."

Her answer not only demonstrated her honesty, but also cleverly avoided possible leakage of information, making Cangdu unable to gauge her true intentions for a moment.

When Cangdu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then he regained his composure.

His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was carefully savoring Unohana Retsu's words.

After a moment, he slowly spoke: "So that's how it is. There are at least two powerful Gods of Destruction? Such information is undoubtedly a pleasant surprise to me. So, God of Destruction, you haven't given your name yet, right? I am Cang Du, a member of the Stern Cross Knights. The holy letter is 'I', which means steel. You should be able to easily understand my ability - whether it is my body or my will, I am as indestructible as steel."

He slowly raised his hands, and the front ends of his seemingly ordinary arms suddenly extended with slender claws, like three rows of sharp blades lined up side by side, and the length of the claws was comparable to that of swords.

His weapons are steel claws on the front of his arms.

He is calm and taciturn, and remains silent when fighting with the enemy.

"I am Unohana Retsu, one of the Gods of Destruction, and one of the 'Gods of Death' as ​​you call them."

Unohana Retsu said. Cangdu, who was calm and taciturn, took this silence to the extreme during the battle.

He moved and turned into a black lightning, rushing towards Mao No Hana Rei with lightning speed.

The pair of blade claws drew silver tracks in the air. Each strike contained a terrifying force that was enough to split mountains and rocks, as if it was going to tear into pieces everything that stood in its way.

However, facing such a fierce attack, Unohana Retsu seemed unusually calm.

Her eyes seemed to be able to see through the essence of all things in the world. Far from being panicked by Cangdu's attack, she dodged it in an almost artistic way.

Her steps were light and graceful, and every turn and every jump was like a carefully choreographed dance. She not only avoided Cangdu's edge, but also maintained a subtle distance from her opponent, making people sigh at the depth of her fighting wisdom.

"Then----"

Unohana Retsu's voice suddenly sounded, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, gentle but with a power that could not be ignored.

Then, the words "————Goodbye." were uttered along with a bright blade light that cut through the night sky. That was the moment when her soul blade was unsheathed, and it was also the crucial moment to decide the outcome.

Wherever the knife light passed, the space seemed to be divided into two, and even time froze at this moment.

Cangdu's "body of steel", which once made him extremely confident, was as fragile as paper in front of this unparalleled sword force.

"Hiss——" Cangdu took a breath of cold air, his pupils suddenly contracted at this moment, and he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

The familiar yet unfamiliar pain came again, a pain that came from the depths of his soul, making him utter a sound involuntarily.

He felt as if his body was torn apart by an invisible force. His vision began to blur. The worlds in four directions, up, down, left, and right, intertwined and overlapped in his eyes, making it difficult for him to distinguish the truth from the false.

"How can this be……"

Cangdu's heart was filled with disbelief. He had never thought that in this world, there would be someone who could break through his defense so easily, not to mention cutting it in half so cleanly and neatly.

He tried hard to keep his body steady, but the pain in his body and the confusion of his mind made it difficult for him to control himself. In the end, he could only watch his body being split into two and slowly falling down.

At this time, Unohana Retsu had already sheathed her sword and was standing there quietly, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with her.

Killing two Quincy of the Stern Cross Knights in a row was nothing to Unohana Retsu.

Kenpachi Zaraki has already chopped down one.

She didn't know who killed the Quincy named Bazby, but she felt that Ayasegawa Yumichika's spiritual pressure had become stronger.

Originally, Ayasegawa Yumichika had the spiritual pressure and combat power of an average Shinigami captain, but he just didn't have Bankai. Now, he has undergone a qualitative change.

It shouldn't be a problem to deal with ordinary Stern Cross Knights.

Aizen Sosuke has disappeared, probably he is plotting something.

As for Esdeath, she has already reached the Ice Palace.
