NOVEL WEB Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Each Generation Is Weaker Than the Previous One!
[SHINIGAMI WORLD]
Lucas appeared in the Vandenreich, walked slowly towards Yhwach sitting on the throne, and looked at him with great interest.
Yhwach looked at Lucas with suspicious eyes, and asked, "It's surprising, can you tell me your origin and identity?"
[CHAT GROUP]
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Sure enough, this arrogant bastard doesn't know your identity and origin.
Liu Xing: This is normal. The so-called omniscience and omnipotence of Yhwach is limited to his world.
Howard Stark: Omniscient and omnipotent?
Lucas: That's right! Of course, just like the omnipotent eight-element god in the world of Stealing Stars, all abilities have a range. The omniscience and omnipotence of Yhwach is also limited to the Shinigami world.
Holy Keisha: Omniscient and omnipotent? What an arrogant ability name! He doesn't need to have omnipotent power; if he truly had omniscient knowledge, he should have walked out of his own world.
Through Lucas, Holy Keisha can also sense the strength of Yhwach. Such a weak being dared to claim to be omniscient and omnipotent, which made Holy Keisha very upset.
As the strongest person in the known universe in her own world, she did not dare to add this title to herself. On the contrary, as a scholar, she is very aware of her weakness and ignorance. For a wise person, the more they know, the more they understand their ignorance.
[OUTSIDE WORLD]
Facing Yhwach's question, Lucas smiled indifferently, shook his head and said, "You don't need to know this, because knowing would be meaningless for you."
Yhwach's eyes turned cold and he sneered: "It seems that if I want to learn the truth, I'll have to take some special measures. Of course, it doesn't matter if you are unwilling to cooperate. I have ways to see your memories."
As soon as he finished speaking, overwhelming Reiatsu came towards Lucas. Yhwach took the lead and launched a sharp attack. Under his control, the huge amount of spiritual power turned into massive arrows, which shot towards Lucas overwhelmingly.
Lucas calmly raised his fist. The white halo of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was rendered purple by the energy of the Power Stone, and along with Lucas's punch, a powerful purple shock wave swept out, shattering all the flying arrows of spiritual power.
"Nice ability!"
Yhwach's eyes lit up, and he felt a sense of happiness, "The next blow will be very hot. I hope you don't turn to ashes."
"Ryūjin Jakka—Unleashed!"
"Zanka no Tachi, North—Tenchi Kaijin!"
The Zanpakutō that Yhwach stole from Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was easily displayed by him at this time, and the powerful and scorching sword energy swept towards Lucas.
"It's so hot!"
"However, your temperature has not reached the point where you can distort space."
Lucas smiled lightly, the Power Stone and the Space Stone glowed at the same time. The purple and blue power entangled with each other, turned into a space wormhole, and swallowed the hot sword energy of Ryūjin Jakka.
"It's my turn!"
"I will return the moves you used against me."
Lucas broke Yhwach's Ryūjin Jakka technique at will, and then returned Yhwach's move to him exactly as it was, hitting Yhwach with his own scorching sword energy.
"Why do you have this technique?"
Yhwach was flustered—how could Lucas use Ryūjin Jakka's technique? This is not possible!
Bang!
In the face of the scorching sword energy whistling towards him, Yhwach wanted to dodge or defend, but the invisible force of space pinned him in place, even preventing him from taking effective defensive measures.
The Sanctuary ability, which was about to be released, also became impossible to perform under the suppression of this spatial power. So Yhwach could only watch helplessly as the hot sword energy roared and mercilessly devoured him, burning him to ashes.
[CHAT GROUP]
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Group Leader, why did you burn him? We agreed to replace the Soul King with his corpse.
Lucas: The current Soul King has not been swallowed up by him, so there is no need to replace the Soul King with his corpse.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Even if you don't need it now, it's better to keep it prepared!
Lucas: Okay, I'll get his body back!
[OUTSIDE WORLD]
Lucas raised his palm, and a green magic circle of time appeared in his hand, restoring Yhwach, who was destroyed by Lucas, and then killing him again while preserving his body.
[CHAT GROUP]
Doflamingo: Fufufufu~ Old man Yamamoto, do you want to kill the Soul King directly and replace him with this corpse?
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Nonsense!
Doflamingo: Fufufufu~ It's not surprising to have this idea, and there's nothing embarrassing about admitting it. Compared with a real king, everyone prefers a corpse that doesn't point fingers at themselves.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Huh! This old man is different from you, and has no such boring idea. This old man just wants to leave a guarantee for future generations, lest one day another lunatic like Yhwach kills the Soul King.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: When the Soul King dies, the whole world will be destroyed. For such a dangerous situation, it is best to have insurance. The body of Yhwach is the insurance that I'm leaving behind.
Kariya Matou: Group Leader, the Fifth Holy Grail War is about to begin.
Lucas: So soon? Could it be that the Command Spells have already appeared?
Tokiomi Tohsaka: There are differences in the passage of time in different worlds, and time in our world passes very fast. Although the Command Spells have not yet appeared, it is already close to the time that the Group Leader mentioned before.
Lucas: The time I mentioned before? Got it! The ten-year magic accumulation period is almost over, isn't it?
Kariya Matou: Yes!
Lucas: When the Command Spells appear, you guys will inform me immediately. As for the rest in the Shinigami world, how are things going on your side?
Uchiha Madara: Everything went well, and all of Yhwach's men were dealt with.
Lucas: \ So fast? Their strength is not weak at all.
Senju Hashirama: We met the reinforcements formed by the Shinigami, and our forces combined to destroy the enemy. Now we are interacting with these Shinigami friends, and these guys are very good.
Sword God Ryuma: Indeed! Especially that Zaraki Kenpachi. I feel that his strength is stronger than what he showed. It is said that he is the strongest Kenpachi!
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: Zaraki Kenpachi? You can go and challenge the woman named Unohana Retsu. Although she appears to be a medical officer on the surface, she is actually the First Generation Kenpachi.
Sword God Ryuma: What about First Generation Kenpachi? The first generation is not necessarily the strongest. Like the Ninja world, where each generation is weaker than the previous one, shouldn't it exist in the Shinigami world?
Senju Tobirama: How dare you talk about our Ninja World? Your pirate world is not much better. The most powerful weapons in the world are the Ancient Weapons invented by the ancients. Aren't you also getting weaker from generation to generation? If you have the ability to surpass the ancients, show it to me.
Lo Pei: Oh! If you look closely, my world is also weaker from generation to generation! In ancient times, there were demons and great magic, and now there are only some remnants from ancient times.
Liu Xing: It's the same for our world. When the ancient Shilan Kingdom ruled the earth, there were countless people with superpowers. Now there are only a dozen people with superpowers in the world.
Dongfang Yuechu: Weaker as the generation goes? Our world does not have this problem.
Han Fei: According to my investigation, our world also shows no signs of modern decline.
Sword God Ryuma: Who cares about your world? Group Leader, Zaraki Kenpachi should be the strongest Kenpachi, right? Kenpachi is generally the latter defeating the former, and the truth is that one generation is stronger than the other.
Lucas: Zaraki Kenpachi is indeed the strongest Kenpachi. He reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship at a very young age. However, in order to prevent himself from losing his opponents, he chose to restrict his own strength, and was no longer obsessed with continuing to become stronger, so... do you understand?
Sword God Ryuma: No way? He gave up his attachment to becoming stronger? Is he serious?
Golden Lion Shiki: Can't bear the loneliness of reaching the top alone? It seems that this kid lacks a strong mentality! What if there is no opponent? This is the realm I have been pursuing.
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni: It's disappointing, but Zaraki Kenpachi did it. He hasn't gotten stronger for many years, and he's even weakened.
Lucas: It's normal! It's like playing chess with weaker opponents. It's not strange if your level drops after a long time. But don't worry, Zaraki Kenpachi can still be saved. If he fights to the death, under the crisis of life and death, he will regain his strength and improve.
Sword God Ryuma: Really? Then I'd be happy to witness all this.
Golden Lion Shiki: Me too! By the way, is that Unohana Retsu strong? I don't like fighting with women, but strong women are an exception.
Lucas: As the First Generation Kenpachi, Unohana Retsu is now as powerful as Zaraki Kenpachi. Don't underestimate her just because she is a woman; you'll suffer greatly if you do.
Pirate King Roger: Zaraki Kenpachi... ah! In the age when he should be improving his strength, his strength has declined. It's unreasonable to think about it.
Lucas: There is nothing to sigh about, and this situation is not unique. Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, if it plays like the original story, also experienced a decline in their strength at the peak of their lives.
Lucas: No, I can't even describe them with a decline in strength. I can tell you that the two of them experienced a plummet in strength after saving the ninja world. Any random fighter can last two weeks against them now.
Senju Tobirama: This is really a tragedy!
Thomas Wayne: Group Leader, do you know any information about me? I want to know if I need to go back and have a look.
Lucas: Don't worry, your son is alive!
