The only player in the world of Bleach

"Can you get used to it? Very good, very good... Just bear with it a little longer, it will be over soon."

Seeing the relaxed demeanor of Matsushita Yusuke, the three people not far away sensed something was amiss.

"..."X3

Why is this guy still so calm?

The situation is so counterintuitive that it makes people instinctively wary, and this is exactly the reaction that Yusuke Matsushita is showing now.

What exactly is he planning?

The three watched as Matsushita Yusuke slightly tightened the straps of his suspenders, and then...

He raised his head again.

There were no obvious movements, and there was no sign of spiritual energy being diverted... so it was just a simple action.

There are no extraneous properties mixed in.

Even so, all three of them felt a kind of pressure in a literal sense.

While it wasn't quite to the point of fear, considering her own identity and the current situation... Nimaiya Oetsu felt a sense of almost speechless amusement.

It's unbelievable that I would feel fear towards an enemy who is in dire straits.

"It seems my cultivation is insufficient... Really, I can even have such a fearful thought."

With a sigh, he looked to his side.

Shutara Senjumaru wiped his face discreetly, effectively concealing his earlier loss of composure.

At that moment, Yusuke Matsushita spoke.

"At your wit's end... Is this how you view the current situation?"

however.

Is this really the case?

"Although I really dislike repeating the same thing over and over again, considering the current situation, I don't mind emphasizing it a few more times."

He raised his right hand again, but this time he did not make any pointing gesture.

Instead, keep your palm facing up and slightly curl your index finger.

"Don't misunderstand, it's not that I can't keep up with your speed, it's just that I don't want to make too many movements... because it makes my girl uncomfortable."

And now.

"Don't mistake my concession for weakness, Zero Squad."

As soon as he finished speaking...

His spiritual energy surged forth, and a spiraling, swirling ball of crimson-purple light emerged from his fingertips with a whooshing sound!

Crypt Flash - Vortex.

309: Swastika! X2

As an attack method, Clash is by far the most criticized aspect...

Or rather, the only 'annoying' aspect is that its usage is too limited.

Penetrating, high-density, explosive damage.

Such terms have always been a fixed part of Cero, even for thousands of years.

So……

Does this mean that this is all Cero can do?

That's not true at all!!!

In fact, Cero itself still has a lot of room for expansion!

By manipulating spiritual energy, everyone can make more detailed adjustments to the attack and attributes of Cero... but so far few people have realized this and made the correct judgment.

But this is also understandable.

After all, Cero doesn't like to use its brain... and with that in mind, most Cero is sufficient to meet the needs of use.

Being able to breach defenses, cause harassment, and facilitate subsequent actions is sufficient.

After all, it's all just fluff...

The requirements themselves shouldn't be too high.

But this seemingly balanced yet extremely awkward situation has now been completely reversed in the hands of Yusuke Matsushita.

Having absorbed the spiritual pressures of both, he now possesses unparalleled control. In the original storyline, compared to Aizen who had already merged with the Hogyoku in the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, he is literally on par with him!

With his current skill level, Yusuke Matsushita can unleash even greater potential.

He is now...

The properties of Crimson Flash can be reversed, thus broadening its applications.

For example, like this.

"swirl."

The moment the words left his mouth, the crimson light that had been swirling and twisting at his fingertips took on a spiral shape.

This bright object swirled around Matsushita Yusuke's fingertips and began to expand at a visible speed... At this rate, in just a breath's pause, it had already grown to the size of a human head.

The crimson light on the outer edge gradually receded inwards, moving silently towards the inner side.

And the bright object hidden in the core... is now showing faint signs of expansion as the circling accelerates!

The appearance of such contradictory phenomena further illustrates that Yusuke Matsushita is adjusting the internal balance of energy through the most exquisite control.

"What's this?"

Sensing the spiritual pressure contained within the Cero, the three people present almost instantly changed color.

The reactions also vary.

Almost reflexively, Kiryuki half-squatted down and raised his hand in a motion that resembled pressing down.

As she completed her movement, the surrounding tree trunks began to grow wildly! They coiled and interlocked until they completely engulfed Matsushita Yusuke's figure.

While an activated battlefield cannot produce substantial attacks, it can certainly create favorable conditions by altering the terrain.

Kiryu Hikifune's current actions are precisely creating opportunities for the two of them.

"Keep your distance! I can't guarantee I can block them all!"

"Can't you do it? Even you would say that?"

Shutara Senjumaru couldn't help but glance at her, but before she could speak again, a blinding light suddenly burst forth from the tree trunk not far away.

Wang Yue, who had been observing the situation, shouted almost reflexively.

"Come on!"

As Kiryu Hikifune stated, it seems that such methods alone are not enough to completely suppress the opponent.

The shell formed by these tree trunks was being pierced by beams of dazzling, brilliant crimson-purple light.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

With a series of echoes, the outer shell suddenly shattered, and the 'vortex' within continued to expand until it seemed to reach a certain critical point...

It shattered with a bang.

Snapped.

A crisp echo...

Then, a visible light crept out.

If someone were to stand atop the Spirit King's Palace at this moment and observe, they would see that the green battlefield, which originally covered more than half of the Spirit King's front hall, is now being swallowed up by a shimmering crimson-purple light.

Nearly half...

No, perhaps two-thirds.

All these amplitudes disappeared after appearing suddenly, like a fleeting moment of light.

Silent and still, the whole thing was like a silent and lonely pantomime.

If Matsushita Yusuke was the mastermind behind everything, then everyone present at this moment... including the monk Yan, was like a dancer dependent on him, only able to quietly watch the stage 'fall'.

An enormous hole and void, as if devoured by the gaping maw of an invisible behemoth, stood alone in the corner.

From a distance, it exudes a terrifying power.

This time, instead of participating, Hyosugibu, who was watching from a distance, unusually opened his mouth slightly and then let out a soft chuckle.

"He does indeed have some skill."

at the same time.

As the light slowly dissipated like a breath, Matsushita Yusuke's figure emerged from it.

He stood still in mid-air, looking around and quickly taking in the surrounding scenery.

Kiryu, who had originally controlled the entire battlefield and was meant to dictate the course of events, was now sprawled out on a nearby high platform in a sorry state.

Her 'active battlefield,' which she relied on for fame, has now completely fallen, and her physical condition seems to have deteriorated to such an extent that even standing up straight is now difficult.

Hiss hiss hiss hiss...

With a series of echoing hisses, a steam-like silhouette emerged on her body. Kiryuki's body trembled slightly and slowly receded inward.

The skin and flesh that originally covered the body collapsed softly like a deflated balloon... but this did not show the feeling of the skin and flesh drooping.

Ironically, with this tendency to be more reserved and introverted, Kiryuki Hikifune's physique gradually became more normal, until she displayed a rather dignified and graceful female image.

Yusuke Matsushita couldn't help but glance over again.

Energy conversion...

Although the impression is not deep, I can't remember much.

But Yusuke Matsushita could vaguely recall the other party's specific ability—to transform the fat stored in the body into spiritual pressure in an activated state.

Using similar methods, Kiryuki could utilize this reserve of energy in a moment of crisis to defend himself against the enemy.

It has to be said that the method used is somewhat questionable.

After all, the conditions for such spiritual pressure conversion are truly intriguing.

but……

That's all.

There is nothing to fear.

Matsushita Yusuke looked at her calmly, then slowly raised his right hand.

"...!"

Because his Bankai was defeated, and he even completely lost the confidence to maintain the shape of the battlefield... Kiryu Hikifune has also lost control of his Zanpakuto in a short period of time.

Of course, what's even more devastating is the inconvenience caused by the trauma feedback.

Even if she gritted her teeth, it would still be difficult for her to achieve the goal of 'transfer' immediately.

Even standing up is extremely difficult.

At this point, Matsushita Yusuke had completed the process of accumulating power.

Phantom flash.

hum...

It shot through the air, and the screeching ball of light pierced through Kiryuki's chest in an instant.

He couldn't even make any blocking or dodging movements. The jerky, frame-dropping effect caused Kiryu's expression to falter, ultimately revealing an expression that resembled uneven eyes.

"Uh……"

The face, contorted with pain, twitched slightly before finally fading into an infinite darkness.

The wound on her chest was round and clear, and just as her body went limp and she was about to fall to the ground.

buzzing buzzing...
