Chapter 144 - Chapter 144: Time, Stop Flowing

Hundreds of years later, there will be a god-level physicist, Einstein, who once said, "Time, space and matter cannot be explained separately."

Yamabuki once vaguely guessed that his Bankai might be related to time-related abilities, but he didn't expect that he guessed it right.

Good! We have cracked the opponent's ability, but how should we fight this battle?

Why can Jotaro defeat Dio Brando?

It's not because of Star Platinum's double A in strength and speed.

The reason why air-conditioned Jotaro was able to win was because "he was the same type of Stand as me," and then he copied the skill of "Shikai," "Smashing Waludo," which reversed the situation.

In other words, the only thing that can defeat time stop is time stop.

This is the simplest, yet most desperate ability.

The rest of the time deletion and time rewinding seem fancy, but they are actually useless. As long as the time-stopping ability is long enough, what can Heaven's Creation do? Get down here and die!

After understanding his Bankai ability, Yamabuki broke out in sweat on his forehead. How can he break the time stop if he does not have the ability to control time?

This is simply an unsolvable question!

No wonder the Soul King said that his Bankai could check omniscience and omnipotence to a certain extent.

No matter how good a full-time or all-rounder is, it is impossible to control time.

When facing Yhwach, even if the time stop is only five seconds, he can use his swordsmanship to cut the opponent into small pieces and wrap them into wontons for everyone to share.

By the way, we, the Gotei 13, do not eat humans.

The same difficult question is also placed before me: how can I defeat this Bankai Zanpakutō spirit that controls the power of time?

"There are many ways to play with time. Don't worry, I will try them out for you one by one!" The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit laughed and slashed with a sword. Yamabuki had no choice but to use the Silver Angel to block it. However, as soon as the swords of both parties collided, Yamabuki clearly felt that his right thigh and left waist were pierced at the same time, and blood was gushing out!

"This is... did you activate time stop again just now?" Yamabuki retreated while healing his wounds.

"No, this is just the simplest of all my abilities. I call it Ashura III Sword! It can attack simultaneously from the past, present, and future. Even if you can block the sword of the present, you can't block the swords of the past and the future. How about it! Isn't it fun?" The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit smiled with his eyes narrowed.

Yamabuki's face turned pale, and he kept backing away.

He was in a very strange mood.

It's like playing a game. You know that as long as you pass this level, you can get god-level equipment, and you can pass the following levels smoothly. But the boss of this level is too strong, and you can't beat him!

The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit smiled even more happily at the desperate look on Yamabuki's face and swung the sword at him!

This time, Yamabuki was too lazy to defend himself. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't defend himself, so he simply activated the Blood Stasis Armor and Steel Skin. However, the reiatsu of the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit was at the same level as his. Steel Skin and Blood Stasis Armor could only slightly reduce the damage he received. In the end, his body was pierced anyway, and it was completely useless.

This time, the scarlet dagger pierced his arm.

"Do you know why there is a phrase in Bankai language called 'the flower blooms in an instant'?" asked the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit.

"I don't know! I don't want to know!" Yamabuki vaguely remembered that this seemed to be the name of a magical power in ancient China, using the instant blooming and withering of flowers to illustrate the absolute control over time.

Wait, time? The blooming and withering of flowers?

Yamabuki had an ominous premonition in his heart. He looked at his pierced arm and saw that his arm was withering at an indescribable speed.

And this withering is still spreading to the body.

Yamabuki acted decisively and cut off his arm with a knife. At this time, the broken arm had turned into powder and disappeared completely due to the flow of time tens of millions of times.

"You're not going to kill me, are you?" Yamabuki was sweating profusely. His super-speed regeneration was activated, and his broken arm healed instantly. However, Yamabuki knew that if the opponent activated this super-time acceleration ability when stabbing the sword into his heart, he would surely die, with no possibility of survival.

Up to now, the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit has demonstrated three abilities.

They are time stop, Ashura III Sword, and super time acceleration.

Not to mention three abilities, as long as I can master one ability, I can fight against Yhwach!

But the biggest problem now is how to defeat the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit in front of him.

This is a totally unsolvable problem!

Unless I can also awaken Bankai.

But you can't use Bankai without defeating the Zanpakutō spirit, and you can't defeat the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit without Bankai. It's a perfect closed loop.

"It seems like you refuse to struggle? Just stick your head here and let me chop it off. Give up! You can't beat me with your current strength." The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit said lightly.

"There's no reason. You are a part of my body. There's no reason for you to be stronger than me. Vollständig!" Yamabuki directly took out his last trump card and activated the Vollständig state. The eight wings behind him began to rapidly devour the surprises around him, and his reiatsu also rose rapidly.

The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit sighed and said, "Did you misunderstand something? My ability is indeed very strong, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as the strongest. However, strong ability does not mean that my basic panel is weaker than yours! Vollständig!"

The Bankai Zanpakutō spirit opened up an identical, perfect holy body.

The appearance of the two perfect bodies is almost the same, except for the color of the wings and halos. Yamabuki's wings and color are more blue-green, while Bankai Zanpakutō spirit's wings and halo are scarlet.

"Hollow Flash!" Yamabuki stretched out his hand and shot out a silver-white Hard Flash, and the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit also stretched out his hand and shot out a scarlet hollow Flash.

The collision of the two reiatsu is evenly matched!

The basic panels of Bankai Zanpakutō spirit and Yamabuki are the same, but Bankai Zanpakutō spirit has more powerful special abilities.

Yamabuki planned to suppress the opponent by getting close to him in hand-to-hand combat, but he never expected that the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit's abilities were not inferior to his own, whether it was swordsmanship, reiatsu, or bare-handed combat ability, they were all on par with his own. In addition, the opponent had the power to control time, so this was a battle without suspense.

"Time, stop flowing, Crimson World!"

A blood-red light burst out from the scarlet dagger in the hand of the Bankai Zanpakutō spirit, and in the blink of an eye, the whole world stopped flowing.

Yamabuki just stood there motionless. The Zanpakutō spirit came to Yamabuki with a smile, intending to pierce through Yamabuki's chest with one sword.

However, at this critical moment...
