Bleach: No cheat codes, he joined Aizen's side.

Chapter 321, Page 319: An invisible hand is manipulating...
Question: How many steps are needed to kill Tetsuzai Wakagashira, who has mastered the forbidden technique of stopping time?

Higashino Hideichi replied: Two steps.

The first step is to come behind Wakami Tessai;
The second step is to pierce his heart with the palm of your hand.

What about time freezing, what about demonic arts? In the face of Higashino Shuichi's omniscience and omnipotence, all he needs to do is conjure up a barrier that seals off abilities beforehand and place it around Tsukabishi Tessai's body.

Sometimes, Higashino Shuichi really felt sorry for Yhwach in the original story.

Despite possessing an infinitely high level of ability, he is always so arrogant that he only counters when the opponent makes a move.

It's such a waste of resources.

Shuichi Higashino would not make such a mistake.

Omniscience and omnipotence, powers akin to those of a creator, in the hands of Shuichi Higashino, meant total siege.

To Higashino Shuichi, Tessai's desperate struggle was as weak as a sheep's prayer.

"too strong"

Looking at the bloodied hand on his chest, Tetsuzai realized that this was a level of strength that ordinary Grim Reapers could only dream of.

Is Kisuke Urahara going to fight someone like this?

Even Tessai Tsukabishi, who had always unconditionally trusted and followed Urahara Kisuke's every decision, couldn't help but feel worried deep down at this moment.

Kisuke Urahara had indeed won many times in the past.

But this time, it's really difficult.

Below, Yinmeng looked up at Tsukasa Rin, who was being easily dealt with by her father as if he were cutting melons and vegetables.

I don't know why, but I feel a little empty inside.

She had just started to exert her strength when her opponent was defeated by her father, leaving her feeling as if she had punched cotton.

But this is indeed something my father would do.

The virtues of fighting and the tradition of one-on-one combat simply do not exist in Father's eyes.

If we can gang up on them, then we'll gang up on them; if we can launch a sneak attack, then we'll definitely launch a sneak attack.

Relying on one's superior strength to engage in a head-on battle with an opponent is not in line with Father's style.

"You have to get used to it."

Yinmeng comforted herself in this way.

However, Higashino Shuichi, who was in the sky, did not show any relief despite Tessai's death.

Because he could sense that within this illusory world of shadows, several forces were surrounding him.

Shuichi Higashino attempts to use his omniscient and omnipotent power to see the predetermined future.

However, he failed.

The future he could see was one of chaos.

That wasn't even the false future he had seen when he looked at Tetsuzai.

"It seems the problem doesn't lie with Woling Tessai."

Higashino Shuichi looked at the still-warm corpse in his hands.

Suddenly I felt a little embarrassed.

If we had known this would happen, there would have been no need for Tessai Wakashi, a Shinigami who wasn't particularly heinous but simply followed the wrong person, to be taken out of the story so quickly.

Higashino Shuichi could allow him to live.

Just now, Higashino Shuichi unilaterally believed that Tessai's Time-Stopping Kido could affect the use of his omniscient and omnipotent ability to foresee the future.

That's why Higashino Shuichi acted so decisively, eliminating Tetsuzai Goryuhiko as quickly as possible.

"I originally thought you would be watching from over there, but I didn't expect you to have anticipated that I would launch a sneak attack on your base?"

Higashino Shuichi stroked his beard with one hand, then squinted and gazed into the darkness in the distance.

Following Higashino Shuichi's gaze, Nemuru looked over but didn't see anyone there.

But Yinmeng knew that this was definitely not her father talking nonsense; it was just that her eyesight was not good enough.

The facts have proven that Yinmeng is indeed self-aware.

Deep within Higashino Shuichi's gaze, a flash of lightning appeared. The powerful spiritual energy, condensed into a single point, nearly knocked Nemuru off the ground with just the ripples it stirred up.

Before people arrive, efforts are made.

"It's Yoruichi Shihouin's Shunpo?!"

Nemu's long time in the 12th Division was not wasted.

Because Mayuri Kurotsuchi loves to meddle in other people's business, the amount of information about the entire Twelfth Division is second only to the Great Spiritual Library.

Therefore, Nemu knows everything about the power wielded by the prominent figures in Soul Society.

In Nemuro's memory, only the former captain of the Second Division, Yoruichi Shihōin, could possibly unleash such a terrifying lightning strike.

"Looks like you damned bastards have been hiding in the shadows, spying on what's happening in our Soul Society all this time!"

As always, the voice arrived before the person.

Yoruichi Shihouin's highly distinctive voice reached Nemu's ears, which was tantamount to acknowledging Nemu's guess.

Then a sudden clap of thunder swept across the heavens and earth, and Yoruichi Shihouin, who had already transformed into a beast, arrived in front of Nemuru, her whole body enveloped in blue lightning.

White-handed fighting, fist technique: Leopard Strike.

At that moment, it pounced like a ferocious beast, carrying the power of thunder, and was unstoppable!
If an ordinary member of the Sternritter were here, they would likely be in serious trouble.

However, Haschwalth, whom Nemu impersonated, was not an ordinary member of the Sternritter; he was the Grand Master of the Sternritter and a powerful Quincy who wielded the Holy Script ability B: Harmony of All Things.

"Unfortunate expulsion!"

All Yinmeng needs to do is form this understanding in her mind, and her holy script ability will activate, then inflict the misfortune that was about to be inflicted on her on the attacker himself.

The luck that comes from the attack will, in turn, benefit Nemuru herself.

In an instant, heaven and earth returned to silence.

The lightning that filled the sky seemed to have never been in this shadow world.

In the realm of demons, there is an advanced technique called Demonic Path Mutual Annihilation. As the name suggests, it involves using demonic paths of equal mass and quantity to collide with each other, causing the two demonic paths to annihilate each other the instant they come into contact.

The situation that is happening to Yoruichi Shihouin now is similar.

The ability to harmonize all things is a power that is almost unsolvable.

The only weakness is that when facing enemies with exceptionally high luck, who are unable to transfer their misfortune, using this ability will backfire.

However, Nemu also has Haschward's Shield of Scapegoat, which allows Nemu to transfer her misfortune onto the shield and then retaliate against it with double the force of the shield.

Thus, the Shield of Scapegoat harmonizes with the power of all things, forming a perfect closed loop.

Generally speaking, there is only one way to break such a perfect closed loop.

That's what happens when you exert great effort.

What Higashino Shuichi didn't expect was that an invisible hand could change the situation by gently touching that void.

Suddenly, a dagger unlike any seen before appeared in Yoruichi Shihouin's hand. As if she had foreseen this outcome, Yoruichi used the dagger to slash the scapegoat shield in Nemuru's hand the instant the lightning disappeared.

Before Yinmeng could even finish uttering the words "useless," she was horrified to discover that the shield in her hand had cracked!
"How can this be?!"

Almost at the same moment.

The same question arose in the minds of both Shuichi Higashino and Nemuru.

To Nemuro's shock, her shield was practically brand new, yet it was destroyed by Yoruichi Shihouin with a single slash.

This was really hard for Yinmeng to accept.

What shocked Higashino Shuichi was that he recognized the sword in Yoruichi Shihouin's hand.

The sword's name is Divine Sword: Eight Mirrors Sword!
Originally a sacred artifact passed down through generations of the Ise family in Soul Society, it is said to be the root cause of the Ise family's perpetual curse.

This bladeless sword is ineffective against humans and cannot harm them. It can only be used when confronting a god, through the body of the person wielding the sword to receive divine power, and then the sword can be swung in all directions to eliminate all sacred things it comes into contact with.

In Higashino Shuichi's memory, this divine weapon should have been specially crafted by Kyoraku Shunsui into a Zanpakuto and sealed inside.

The core of one of the twin swords used by Kyoraku Shunsui was this Eight Mirrors Sword.

Even if Kyoraku Shunsui did manage to unleash the sword, the person wielding it should be a member of the Ise family, specifically Ise Nanao.

Only by accepting the curse of this sword generation after generation can the Ise family members unleash the true power of this divine weapon.

But what does Higashino Shuichi see now?
A divine weapon that should have been used only by the Ise family is now in the hands of Yoruichi Shihouin. She even used this Eight Mirrors Sword to destroy the Shield of Sacrifice in Nemuru's hands!

Is the Haschward that Nemuru was impersonating a god?!
Why is it that the Eight Mirror Sword can be effective?
However, Higashino Shuichi thought about it again. Nemuru and he were now practically one, so facing Nemuru was like facing himself, and he had now absorbed most of Yhwach's power.

So, it doesn't seem so abrupt that the Eight Mirrors Sword treats Hasward, who is disguised as Nemuru, as a god.

If we follow this line of thought, Yoruichi Shihouin's seemingly reckless direct attack on Nemuru becomes explainable.

One of the conditions for activating the Eight Mirrors Sword is that the wielder must be bathed in divine power.

Could it be that Yoruichi Shihouin is trying to indirectly bathe herself in divine power through this method?
Thinking hard.

This is definitely not a method that Yoruichi Shihouin could have come up with.

"So, it really comes down to you, Kisuke Urahara."

Almost immediately, a name popped into Higashino Shuichi's mind.

There is only one person who could have planned all of this in such a short time.

Only Kisuke Urahara could order Yoruichi Shihouin around like that.

Even though the two of them did have a falling out in the past, and they have indeed separated now.

However, as long as Kisuke Urahara reveals his identity as Yhwach, Shuichi Higashino believes that, given Yoruichi Shihouin's personality, even if she dislikes Kisuke Urahara, she would still lend a hand for the sake of Soul Society.

"However, if I'm not mistaken, even if you can go to Soul Society to get reinforcements, the number will be limited."

"At least my line of Shinigami, and the veteran Shinigami of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's line, would never collude with you."

Fortunately, all of this unfolded in ways that, while some details, exceeded Higashino Shuichi's expectations.

However, it was all within Higashino Shuichi's vision.

In fact, the main battlefield that Higashino Shuichi prepared for himself is this vast shadow world right now beneath his feet.

On the surface, Higashino Shuichi is using the Sternritter members in the real world as bait to attract attention.

They sacrificed themselves to give themselves the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Kisuke Urahara's hometown.

But in reality, wasn't Higashino Shuichi also using himself and Nemuru as real bait to trick Urahara Kisuke into thinking he had seen through the trick and choosing to come to this shadow world to fight him to the death?
It's true that Higashino Shuichi abandoned his group of Sternritter members and chose to venture into this place alone with Nemuru.

But since his rebirth, Higashino Shuichi's favorite trick has been to disguise himself, the real hunter, as a fallen prey.

"To be honest, I have to admit that I underestimated you, Shinigami, Kisuke Urahara."

Leaving such a powerful assistant here as bait will trick us into giving him our all, thereby revealing our abilities and allowing you to handle things calmly from the rear.

Such decisiveness and ruthlessness—you and I are equally matched!

With a casual wave of his hand, Higashino Shuichi used his omniscient and omnipotent power to simulate the ability of his Zanpakuto's Shikai, and put Nemu, whose abilities had been broken by Yoruichi Shihouin's divine weapon, the Eight Mirrors Sword, into another dimension.

Although Shuichi Higashino could continue to grant Nemu abilities, there is no need to do so; it would only add to Yoruichi Shihouin's achievements.

"Yhwabach, no matter what you say, what do you think your chances of winning are right now?"

In the darkness, Kisuke Urahara still looked like a general store owner, fanning himself and speaking with a smile.

It seems that Kisuke Urahara has already secured victory.

After all, along with Kisuke Urahara were not only the spirits with the power of the first captains under his control, but also the captains of Soul Society whom he rushed to Soul Society to reason with and appeal to their emotions.

Kyoraku Shunsui, Ukitake Jushiro, Soi Fon, and even Kenpachi Zaraki, who simply wanted to get into a fight.
Of course, that's not enough, after all, the other party is Yhwach, the Quincy King who almost caused Soul Society to change its regime.

So Kisuke Urahara raised his hand and showed Higashino Hideaki the results of his research over that period.

It was a giant spider web, hanging in the air, and beneath it, Higashino Shuichi could feel the Quincy power within his body rapidly draining away.

All of this was prepared for Higashino Shuichi, who was impersonating Yhwach.

Urahara Kisuke cannot be said to be inadequate.

only.
"I think I forgot to tell you, I'm not the only one who has feelings for you~"
