Death: Captain Millennium

Chapter 196 Division 0

"Alright, I've finished discussing the Soul King's secrets. Now, let's get back to the question of Yhwach."

Lin Yu said so much, actually it was all for the final BOSS, Yhwach!

Aizen vaguely guessed that there must be some connection between Yhwach and the Soul King, but he was not sure.

"Let me guess. This Yhwach is a reincarnation of the Soul King, isn't he? He's seeking revenge against the Five Nobles, so he's taking the knife against the Death God?"

Aizen gave an answer that he thought was more reasonable, which could explain why the Quincy wanted to kill all the Shinigami.

"I'm sorry! Wrong answer. Yhwach is actually the Soul King's son."

The gossips that Lin Yu revealed were bigger and bigger, and I didn’t know how to describe them.

The Soul King, a supreme being, harbored such a complex web of connections. The revelation of Yhwach's identity as the Soul King's son undoubtedly shocked everyone present. The once enigmatic Quincy leader, driven solely by vengeance against the Shinigami, now held a shrouded background.

Upon hearing this news, Aizen's eyes flickered with a subtle shock. He had thought his suspicions were close to the truth, but the reality was far stranger than he'd imagined. The father-son relationship between the Soul King and Yhwach—did this imply a deeper purpose for the Quincy's actions?

"How is that possible? Nonsense! How can Yhwach be the Soul King's son?!"

Ichimaru Gin couldn't contain his inner shock, and the fox smile on his face could no longer be maintained. Everything Lin Yu said overturned his three views.

"Although this sounds ridiculous, it's the truth. Yhwach's life was miserable enough. He was rejected by the Soul King from birth. He couldn't see, hear, speak, or even move. He was like a vegetable. But he was still the Soul King's offspring after all. Under such circumstances, he still survived and became the king of the Quincies."

"Everything Yhwach did was out of revenge on the Soul King. He wanted to destroy everything the Soul King had built, and then recreate a world with only Quincies as its masters."

Lin Yu roughly revealed everything about Yhwach.

"You said before that the Captain and I defeated Yhwach a thousand years ago. I don't deny that, but Yhwach was only half-crippled at that time, so I'm not sure I can handle him now that he's back in his prime."

"Half-crippled? Who did it?"

Aizen suddenly became interested. The person who could injure Yhwach should not be an unknown person, but he was completely unaware of it.

"The one who attacked him was none other than Ichibei of the Zero Squad, whose real name is Hu Heshang!"

In the barrier, Lin Yu could call out the monk's real name without any scruples. The power he used did not belong to the Death God system, so he did not have to worry about being discovered.

"Team Zero?"

Aizen and Ichimaru Gin still have some impression of the Zero Squad. Back then, Hikifune Kiryu was promoted to the Zero Squad.

Rukia was confused again. She had never heard of the Zero Squad!

"Is there another piece of gossip that I don't know about? It feels so good to know everything!"

She leaned forward, like a curious baby.

"If I have the chance, I would like to meet this person."

When Aizen said this, he glanced at Lin Yu. There were two meanings in his words. One was that he wanted to see the monk's strength, and the other was to indirectly test whether Lin Yu would kill him in the end.

"There will be a chance, but not now."

Lin Yu's words were like a reassurance that landed firmly in his heart. With a magical power, they instantly dispelled the tension deep in Aizen's heart, allowing him to completely relax.

At this moment, Aizen was extremely confident in his heart, and firmly believed that Lin Yu would never attack him.

"In reality, while the monk is incredibly powerful, he's far from being strong enough to directly injure Yhwach. Back then, he simply set a trap for Yhwach, cleverly utilizing the power of the Soul King's left hand to successfully seal Yhwach's omniscience and omnipotence."

"If he hadn't performed this brilliant move, I'm afraid that in that shocking battle a thousand years ago, we, the God of Death, would have suffered a devastating disaster and died." Lin Yu said slowly, with an imperceptible hint of contemplation in his eyes.

"Teacher! Please stop keeping me in suspense and continue telling me about Squad Zero. You're being so vague right now, it's really keeping me in suspense."

Rukia urged anxiously. She couldn't wait to uncover the mystery of Team Zero and find out what this legendary existence was like.

She didn't care what the monk had done to Yhwach. Her heart was completely occupied by Squad Zero at the moment, and she just wanted to know all the secrets about Squad Zero as soon as possible.

Lin Yu looked at Rukia, whose face was filled with curiosity, and sighed inwardly. Although he felt a little unhappy that she had interrupted him, he couldn't bear to deny her curiosity. So, he gently raised his hand and gave Rukia a slap. Although the blow was not heavy, it made her frown slightly.

Then, Lin Yu began to slowly tell the story about Team Zero.

"Team Zero, that's a formidable team. Their overall strength is stronger than the entire Gotei 13. This is no casual remark. Team Zero has a total of five members."

"Hyoshubu Ichibei, who has always accompanied the Spirit King, Nimeiya Oyue, the Western Divine General, Shutara Senjumaru, the Northern Divine General, Kirinji Tenshiro, the Eastern Divine General, and Hikifune Kiryu, the Southern Divine General."

"Their duty is to guard the Soul King and ensure his safety. They do not interfere with the operations of the Gotei 13, unless the Gotei 13 is truly at a critical juncture of life and death, on the brink of extinction."

Lin Yu stopped here and did not reveal their abilities. One should always keep some secrets. If they reveal everything, it would be no different from running naked.

Aizen and Ichimaru Gin only knew about Hikifune Kiryu. Lin Yu just told them about Hyoshubu Ichibei, and now they know about the remaining three people. Although they don’t know much, it is enough.

Rukia listened with fascination, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

She asked anxiously, "Then how strong are they?"

Lin Yu smiled and shook his head, saying, "I'm afraid you'll only understand this the day you face them in person. But I can tell you for sure that they are all top-tier warriors in Soul Society. Even I can't defeat them at my current level."

What Lin Yu said was correct. As long as the Soul King Palace and the Zero Squad Palace were not destroyed, the people in the Zero Squad could be resurrected infinitely.

The skeletons of the members of the Zero Squad are constructed from the power of the Soul King, also known as the "King Key." Because their bodies have been recast as the King Key, their hearts are actually the Zero Squad Rikuden. Even if they die, simply calling their names can bring them back to life.

In comparison, there is still a difference between the sinners in hell. The sinners rely on the will of hell. As long as hell is not destroyed, the sinners can be reborn infinitely. However, as long as the will of hell can be isolated, the sinners can still be completely killed. This is how Qunqing died at Lin Yu's hands.
