The two sides scattered, almost instantly engaging their respective targets.

Shaiapouf's wings constantly shed scales, transforming into translucent, crystal-clear fragments that embedded directly into the air, paving a large expanse of flat ground.

Meruem and his group could freely move in the air, using these scales as footholds.

When changes in direction were needed, they could also use Nen to alter their form; mere terrain disadvantages couldn't affect their combat effectiveness.

Neferpitou set her sights on Soi Fon, finding this small, girlish opponent very interesting.

Youpi, on the other hand, particularly loathed the smiling Gin Ichimaru, clenching his fists until they cracked.

Shaiapouf, meanwhile, flapped his wings, stirring up gusts of scale powder, and, with the aid of the hurricane generated by his wings, clashed against Byakuya Kuchiki's sea of cherry blossoms.

The scene of these two battling was exceptionally beautiful, one side like brilliant cherry blossoms, the other like dark green gemstones, both shimmering with dazzling light.

Byakuya Kuchiki stood motionless, his expression indifferent, only slowly extending one hand, manipulating the sea of cherry blossoms to attack the enemy as if he were a conductor.

Shaiapouf was even more extreme, somehow producing a violin and, while gently fluttering his wings, playing a melodious tune, his expression utterly engrossed.

Against this dazzling backdrop and music, Meruem faced Retsu Unohana.

"Oh my, is the Ant King himself taking the field? Truly, I am overwhelmed with the honor!" Unohana smiled gently.

Meruem's eyes were cold, and he said indifferently, "You humans are truly strange, clearly possessing great power, yet remaining obscure within your entire race, allowing some useless individuals to serve as leaders, issuing some inexplicable policies.

And you, the strong, always hide behind the scenes, never appearing unless the crisis concerns the life and death of the entire race."

Unohana smiled slightly, "Sounds quite like humans indeed! But you've asked the wrong person! We are not humans!"

Meruem was somewhat surprised, "Then what are you?"

"Shinigami!"

Meruem sneered, "Nonsense!"

Chimera Ants are different from ordinary monsters; they originate from the Dark Continent and possess the ability to learn and genetically evolve.

Their intelligence far surpasses that of ordinary people, coupled with their battle instinct engraved in their genes, comprehensive information gathering is self-evident.

In these few days, they used the internet and their own special brain nerves to almost sweep through books on natural geography and human culture on Earth.

They also had some exposure to myths and legends.

After all, in the Hunter Continent, so-called Hunters are mostly rumored about, rarely seen.

His final defeat at the hands of Netero, although partly Meruem's own responsibility, was also somewhat influenced by Komugi.

This was simply impossible.

He shook his head, "I see, just an unreasonable woman? A wasted expectation! Fine, I happen to be a little hungry, so let this king taste what you are made of!"

Unohana's smile remained unchanged, she slowly untied the braid in front of her chest, saying, "Is it finally time to start fighting? It truly makes me… impatient!"

Unohana raised her head, her aura suddenly changed, her loosened long hair moved without wind, and her whole person exuded a sharp killing intent.

Clang!

She slowly moved her hand on the hilt and drew out her Zanpakuto from her waist, swinging it to the right.

Swish!

An invisible blade of light flew out, instantly tearing apart a large patch of black clouds.

Meruem's pupils constricted, and he said, "I see, Shinigami? In a sense, you truly deserve the title!"

"Enough nonsense, come and attack!"

Unohana's eyes flashed red, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Her pearly white teeth, which were so graceful and moving just a second ago, now seemed like the fangs of a demon.

Meruem was somewhat stunned by Unohana's completely different aura.

Before he could recover, a blade of energy came slashing towards him.

No, not a blade of energy, but a person!

Meruem only felt a blur before his eyes, and Retsu Unohana appeared in front of him.

His body's nerves automatically reflexively shifted to the right, the Zanpakuto missed, naturally drawing a circle, and swept across in a backhand.

Meruem's whole body burst out with Nen, the air surged, forcibly withstanding the slash, and his whole person flew out like a cannonball, still sliding more than a thousand meters even with the layers of scale powder blocking it.

The three members of the Royal Guards were shocked, calling out "Your Majesty!" and wanting to step forward.

"All of you, don't move!"

Meruem slightly lowered his head, saw a faint white mark on the outer carapace of his waist, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

"You few focus on your own opponents! This enemy is not simple!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The three answered in unison, turning to face their respective opponents again.

Shinigami are all proud people, and unless it is a battle to the death, they never bother with sneak attacks.

Although these aliens are enemies, they are also worthy of respect.

"You didn't even sneak attack?" Neferpitou asked curiously, "Is it so-called morality or does your fighting style not allow it?"

"Just disdain," Soi Fon slowly took off her haori, revealing the black combat suit inside, and said faintly, "Have you finished talking?

"Finished!" Neferpitou said with a smile.

"Then die without regrets! Shun!"

Swish!

As soon as the words fell, Soi Fon directly appeared in front of Neferpitou, her fists waving a flurry of afterimages, the huge force directly creating a sonic boom.

Neferpitou's main body is a cat, inherently having an agility bonus.

The opponent's sudden attack did not bring her the slightest trouble, instead, she agilely jumped and dodged.

Her body was wrapped in a thick layer of Nen, and with every move, her strength and speed were greatly enhanced.

For a time, the air was filled with afterimages of the two.

They rapidly changed positions, each appearance accompanied by an explosion of air, and then the clouds below would be blasted into a pit.

In just a few seconds, the smooth surface of the black clouds was blasted as if it were pockmarked.

The three pairs were fighting fiercely, with complete sound, light, and color effects.

To create such special effects would cost at least tens of millions.

But on Youpi's side, it turned into a cat-and-mouse game.

Youpi was a tank character, he was good at close combat.

But Gin Ichimaru on the opposite side was a cunning fox.

The short knife in his hand was very peculiar, extending and retracting at will, and very sharp.

Whenever Youpi rushed over, Gin Ichimaru would retreat at the first moment, and incidentally stab the opponent.

Just during the time Meruem and Unohana were talking, Youpi had been stabbed more than 100 times.

Although it healed in the blink of an eye, it still made him furious.
