Death: Then stood in the sky.

"Mere Grim Reaper!"

Noitra's gaze turned fierce, and he chose to unleash his full power once again.

But... I still can't cut it!

How is that possible!

He's just a grim reaper!

Noitra looked at the girl, Nel, who was still clinging tightly to Seiji's clothes and lying behind him.

So that's why that damned woman Nellyel didn't choose to run away?

If that's the case.

Then I will destroy it completely, just like I destroyed you!

A mad glint flashed in Noitra's eyes, and a golden pillar of spiritual pressure shot into the sky, even shattering the protective aura above!

"Oh no! We can't let him continue like this, or the entire Karakura Town will become a dead zone!" Rukia's eyes were filled with panic.

Humans in this world are far too weak to withstand the pressure of spiritual energy.

Therefore, there is a clear rule in Soul Society.

That is, when a Shinigami of the vice-captain or above goes to the human world, they are sealed with a seal called a limited spiritual seal, which locks their spiritual pressure limit at about 20%.

Simply put, Shinigami at the vice-captain and captain levels have only one-fifth of their original spiritual pressure in the human world.

This is to prevent the vice-captain and captain-level Shinigami from causing irreparable damage to the world.

This also shows how terrible the consequences would be for the world if the spiritual pressure of vice-captains and above were not limited.

As for Noitra, he's gone mad!

What he is doing now is equivalent to a captain-level Shinigami unleashing his spiritual pressure in the human world without restraint!

This guy, isn't he afraid of incurring the wrath and encirclement of the Soul Society?!

"That bastard!" Kurosaki Masaki's eyes were also filled with anger. How could she, with her kind nature, tolerate Nnoitra's wanton harm to humans in the world? But she had no solution for the time being.

Because Noytra is too difficult.

Without exaggeration, this is the strongest Hollow that Masaki Kurosaki has ever encountered since becoming a Quincy, bar none!

"What... should I do?!" Masaki Kurosaki bit her lip, a move suddenly popping into her mind.

At this moment, if one wants to surpass their own limits and use even greater power to stop the other from causing destruction to the world, perhaps only that... is possible?

Just do it!

There's no time to hesitate any longer!

Masaki Kurosaki's eyes were firm, and then she was dumbfounded.

In their line of sight, a blue pillar of spiritual pressure also shot into the sky, colliding head-on with the golden spiritual pressure, trapping it in place and preventing it from spreading.

This is... Seiji's spiritual pressure!!!

So that wasn't his full strength before? Is this his true power?!

"This spiritual pressure, this level of spiritual pressure, you bastard!" Noitra's eyes were bloodshot. He did not admit, and absolutely could not accept, that a Shinigami could have such power!

Snapped.

Aoshi pushed his sword forward, knocking Noitraton, who was still in a standoff, back a distance.

My body was indeed liberated.

If it were my previous self, I wouldn't have been able to release spiritual pressure like this, nor would I have been able to fight Noitra.

"Will die"—that's the literal meaning.

Noitra didn't even need to kill him; Aoji's own body could kill him. That's how wretched that body was.

Just look at Jushiro Ukitake for a specific example. There was only one real battle, where he teamed up with Shunsui Kyoraku to fight Stark, the Espada, who was completely passive and had no fighting spirit throughout the entire fight.

Aside from that, I basically just lay there waiting for the CD to play the entire time.

If even Jushiro Ukitake is like this, then Seiji, without the protection of the One-Eyed God's power of "Stop," will only become weaker.

"I'll say it again, let's go back," Aoshi said seriously. If he could, he didn't want to fight Noitra.

"Are you looking down on me just like that damned woman, Nelieel?!"

Feeling humiliated, Noitra's forehead veins bulged and throbbed: "Sar, come and continue fighting me, kill me, or be killed by me!"

"Then there's nothing I can do." Qing Si sighed. It was really difficult to deal with such an tactless guy. Although he would expose some things, Qing Si was not unprepared.

He took out a bottle of medicine, broke it open, sealed it, and gulped it down.

【Name: Spiritual Pressure Amplifying Potion】

[Attribute: After use, it can unleash power exceeding one's spiritual pressure limit for a short period of time, but the side effect is that one will be weak for a period of time after the effect ends, and in the most serious cases, it may even lead to death.]

[Note: This is a poorly made work, but it can be a lifesaver in some situations.]

The medicine was indeed real, but Aoji didn't actually drink it.

All of this is for the Soul Society to see.

Or to put it bluntly, it was meant for Aizen.

Aoji wasn't sure if Nnoitra would dare tell Aizen the specifics of what happened. At the current point in time, it was impossible for Aizen to allow the Espada to appear in the world.

In other words, Noitra acted on his own initiative.

Instead of expecting others to answer the way you want, it's better to provide a pre-set script yourself.

The script is good: he takes drugs so he can suddenly become powerful and stop Nnoitra, and then he's weak for a while afterward to claim he was seriously injured.

"Go to hell!"

Noitra charged forward relentlessly.

Amidst the gasps of Masaki Kurosaki and Rukia, the two clashed, but unexpectedly, Nnoitra was sent flying by a single blow, sliding over a hundred meters before crashing into a wall and creating a large hole before finally coming to a stop.

As the 5th Espada, someone who almost surpasses the entire Hueco Mundo, he actually lost in pure power!

"Wow, that's amazing!" Masaki Kurosaki's eyes widened. Ukitake Seiji actually had such strength, able to suppress an opponent that even he found incredibly difficult to deal with.

Rukia was completely stunned.

"I won't allow it!"

"I absolutely will not allow such a powerful being to exist!"

Nnoitra stared blankly at the furrow he had plowed with his feet, and roared, "I am the strongest, the strongest Nnoitra! Stronger than anyone else! So those stronger than me will be killed by me one by one!"

But when he met Seiji's look of utter contempt, Noitra broke down again, because he knew that this Grim Reaper was about to say those mind-altering things again.

really......

"If that's the case, why don't you challenge an Arrancar who's ranked higher and stronger than you?"

This isn't over yet.

"And then again, are you really that afraid to challenge Heribel? What are you so afraid of?"

I knew you were going to say that!

The real Zhan Panqin, a man who had been chasing after Helibel, asked, "Are you afraid you can't beat Helibel? Or are you afraid Helibel will kill you?"

Noitra immediately broke through his defenses and launched a sneak attack while Aoji was speaking, slashing down from behind.

Turn!

But Aoji realized what was happening!

Even Retsu Unohana's slash was something Seiji could handle, let alone Nnoitra's attack!

Click!

The sickle slammed heavily onto the ground, causing it to collapse instantly, creating a huge crater like an earthquake. The shockwaves caused the surrounding buildings to shake, and a large amount of glass shattered instantly, falling to the concrete floor in a crackling sound.

This is the terrifying destructive power of the Arrancar.

When Noitra realized he had missed, a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

The next moment.

Aoji arrived in front of Nnoitra even faster and slashed at her with his sword.

Noitra breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, but didn't forget to laugh and mock him.

"Ignorant!"

"Did you think such a weak strike could break my steel armor?"

But, is it really impossible to break it?

Under Noitra's astonished and incredulous gaze.

The strike transformed into a streak of light, slashing into his chest.

The pain struck.

Immediately, the blood lines burst open, spraying blood everywhere.

The steel plate has been breached!

The Yachiru-ryu sword technique, inherited from Retsu Unohana, makes a grand entrance with a bloody display!

Chapter 25 Pity is Neliel's death sentence.

"My steel sheet?!"

"impossible!"

Noitra was stunned for a moment, then immediately fell into an even more vulnerable state.

He simply cannot accept it!

No, it's simply unacceptable for such a thing to happen!

He possessed the strongest defense among the Espada, yet his defense was broken!

He went through countless battles in Hueco Mundo, climbing up from a weak insect, a nobody, and trash, defeating one powerful figure after another who stood in his way, including Neriel, before becoming the 5th Espada.

That was the most chaotic era in the virtual world.

Every Hollow is doing their best to improve themselves, fighting tooth and nail to squeeze into the ranks of the Espada and become an Arrancar standing at the very top of Hueco Mundo.

Noitra, driven by this desire to become stronger, advances by any means necessary.

And then... he stopped.

Because he reached the limit of what he could achieve.

This limit is the limit of Adjuchas.

I can no longer become stronger, even if I fight against any powerful enemy.

I can no longer make any progress, no matter how hard I try to defeat all my opponents.

It was only at this moment that Nnoitra understood that each Espada represented a certain emotion, and what exactly the despair he, as the 5th Espada, represented was.

That is the ultimate despair when the perverse desire to win and the yearning to become stronger can no longer be satisfied.

So, he was jealous!

Jealousy Nereid was born Vastod, a king from birth, with no limits and able to keep getting stronger!

Therefore, he harbored resentment!

Resentment towards Neliel for letting her go time and time again, for not giving her the dignity of a strong person, that damned pity for the weak is Neliel's capital offense!

That's why... we need to fight even harder to kill those strong individuals!

To prove that I am the strongest!

I'm here!
