"Click——"

The last petals of the Hyōrin flower suspended behind Hitsugaya Toshiro are gradually breaking and withering.

Seeing this, Kuchiki Byakuya frowned slightly and reminded: "Remove the swastika, Captain Hitsugaya... you have reached your limit."

"Huh... no... not yet..."

Hitsugaya Toshiro gasped and stood up slowly.

"Captain Hitsugaya..." Byakuya Kuchiki tried to convince him again, but was interrupted by his next words.

"I don't remember ever saying... that the swastika will reach its limit after the ice flowers are gone..."

Click——

As Hitsugaya Toshiro's words fell, the crisp cracking sound stopped abruptly.

The flower of the ice wheel was completely broken.

At the same time, a terrifying spiritual pressure full of chills suddenly spread towards the surroundings, and the icy cold air instantly coated everything around him with a layer of ice.

"This is……"

Kuchiki Byakuya looked at the figure gradually emerging in the cold mist with some surprise. At this moment, Hitsugaya Toshiro... seemed to have grown up?

"Only after the flowers of ice have dispersed can the Daigurian Hyōrinmaru be completely completed."

I saw that Toshiro Hitsugaya seemed to be back in his prime... no, I should say he was even more powerful than in his prime.

While calmly answering Kuchiki Byakuya's doubts, he stood up slowly.

Ice condensed on his body, like a crystal armor.

"My power is not mature enough to fully control Hyōrinmaru. I don't know if it is because of this. After completing Daiguren Hyōrinmaru, I will be slightly older. Although I don't like this look, there is nothing I can do about it.

.”

Seemingly noticing Kuchiki Byakuya's surprised gaze, Hitsugaya Toshiro looked at the changes in his figure and explained expressionlessly.

"you……"

Byakuya Kuchiki felt speechless for a while.

He highly suspected that the young man in front of him was in Versailles, but there was no evidence.

But let me tell you, this boy will look really handsome when he grows up, and he will almost catch up with him.

"Are you... Hitsugaya Toshiro?"

Gerald Valkyrie also seemed to notice the chill around him. When he lowered his head and found the direction of the two people, he saw Hitsugaya Toshiro's posture at the moment and asked with some doubts.

"Swastika? No... I remember you should have already swastika... Why can it change again?"

"Forget it, it's not important! You are more worthy of being my opponent now than you were just now!"

As he asked, Gerald Valkyrie suddenly sneered.

He suddenly thrust the Sword of Hope into the ground again, then took off the buckler he wore on his left arm and threw it out like a Frisbee.

"Yeah?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro calmly looked at the huge disk flying towards him.

tread--

He stepped lightly on the ground, and the overflowing violent spiritual pressure seemed to be sprayed out uncontrollably, and all the rocks where he stepped shattered.

When his body was in the air, he slowly raised his hand in the direction from which the shield flew.

Click——

The water vapor in the air instantly froze the huge flying disk in mid-air, and it seemed that even the strong wind blowing when it rotated was frozen!

After the disk froze, Hitsugaya Toshiro landed on it and looked at the huge Gerald Valkyrie in front of him: "Didn't I tell you not to throw such big things around? If it falls on the net,

It will be very troublesome for Lingting."

"drink!"

Gerald Valkyrie ignored his words. After seeing that his Shield of Justice was frozen, he mercilessly pulled out the Sword of Hope on the ground and swung it at Hitsugaya Toshiro.

"..."

Facing this powerful sword, Hitsugaya Toshiro calmly raised the Zanpakutō in his hand.

Click——

The huge sword of hope was frozen into ice by the extreme cold as it approached Hitsugaya Toushiro, and then was cut off by his sword when it reached him.

"madness!"

Seeing that the person in front of him dared to cut off his Sword of Hope, Gerald Valkyrie laughed sarcastically, "Didn't I also say that!? If the 'Sword of Hope' is injured, the damage will be returned to the person who caused it.

Hurt people!"

"Is it?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro responded calmly.

One second, two seconds...

"!?"

After a brief silence, Gerald Valkyrie seemed to realize something was wrong.

The injuries that were supposed to be returned had no effect on the person in front of him!

"Are you confused?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro explained calmly, "After completing the swastika, the Daiguren Hyōrinmaru is enough to freeze everything. And once frozen... the functions of all matter will stop. Your sword of hope is also among them."

"I see……"

Gerald Valkyrie seemed to understand the characteristics of the ice after the guy in front of him swastika.

So, he suddenly raised his hands in a bow-drawing posture.

Suddenly, the shining spiritual light condensed into a huge bow and spiritual arrow between his hands.

"Then - let's defeat you with the flow of power that has no function beyond human intelligence!"

"The Quincy's bow and spiritual arrows?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro's expression remained expressionless when he heard this, "Your judgment is a little wrong."

As he spoke, he raised the Zanpakutō in his hand.

The direction the tip of the knife pointed was the frozen figure of Gerald Valkyrie who had been frozen at some point along with the condensed spiritual bow and spiritual arrows.

"The Four Realms Freeze. After liberation, the Daiguren Hyōrinmaru can freeze all ice, water, fire and wind in the space within four steps. And now the distance between us is just right."

Looking at the frozen giant in front of him, Hitsugaya Toshiro showed no expression and prepared to withdraw his Zanpakutō.

However, just when he thought the battle was over, something happened again.

Click——

The ice that had frozen Gerald Valkyrie was broken free again.

"drink--"

Because the distance was too close, Gerald Valkyrie's hand suddenly grabbed Hitsugaya Toshiro directly, making him unable to react for a moment and being pinched in the palm of his hand.

"What……"

Hitsugaya Toshiro's expression changed slightly, but the terrifying power prevented him from breaking free for a while.

"Never freeze! I am a warrior of God! I should not be trapped by the elements of this world! Go to hell! I will crush you!"

Amid the angry roar, Gerald Valkyrie's clenched hands prepared to exert force.

But at this time, another change occurred.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

A roar like a wild beast came from below.

"!?"

In this deafening roar, Gerald Valkyrie's huge figure began to lose his balance, and his whole body fell forward.

"Wha...what?"

Gerald Valkyrie looked toward the back in confusion, and saw the figure with a broken arm, and he was overturned with only the remaining arm!

"Zaraki...sword——"

However, before he could roar in anger, his mouth became stiff and unable to move.

"Hmm!?"

He was surprised and wanted to turn around, but found that only his eyeballs could move.

"If you touch me at zero distance, do you think you can escape unscathed?" Hitsugaya Toshiro asked calmly.
