GA: Chapter 207: Kyōka Suigetsu's Ability — Not Everyone Is Aizen
Ordinary Group Leader: "Honestly — with the combination of the Horse Talisman and the Dog Talisman, setting aside sealing techniques, there shouldn't be anyone in the chat group who can defeat the Holy Lord, right?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Even Hikari-jiejie probably can't, I'd think."
The Horse Talisman granted powerful regenerative ability — any abnormal physical condition caused by external forces could be cleared, and bodily wounds were healed effortlessly. The Dog Talisman directly negated death — any ability capable of killing was simply nullified.
Short of sealing, it was almost impossible to think of any means to kill the Holy Lord.
No wonder Uchiha Madara and Marquis Voban couldn't beat him — the gap in their base strength wasn't enormous, and all of them could cause each other some degree of damage. The Holy Lord was no exception.
The Holy Lord could damage Madara and Voban, and they could damage him. The critical difference was their recovery ability, which was nowhere near his level.
The Holy Lord could simply tank their attacks without worrying about the damage or the cost, while continuing to deal injuries back. They couldn't do the same.

You already excluded sealing techniques from the premise, so what are you even saying.
But there were often fates more agonizing than death. Just saying.
Ordinary Group Leader: "Once someone with root-level abilities joins in the future, it should be possible."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Like the Eyes of Direct Death, or someone who has mastered fundamental laws."
Golden Flash: "Hey, everyone—"
Minato was trying to interrupt the conversation and mention the mission template — but before he could finish, the Group Leader's next message pushed past him.
Ordinary Group Leader: "Wait — if Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu could work on the Holy Lord, making him strip his own Talismans or concede, that might also do it."
Holy Lord: "???"
Kyōka Suigetsu...
The Holy Lord's eyes narrowed slightly. He had considerable confidence in the strength of his own soul — if anything, it was more formidable than his physical body.
But Kyōka Suigetsu — he'd never had it used against him. He couldn't say with certainty whether it would affect him.
5th Division Captain: "The Group Leader gives me too much credit."
5th Division Captain: "Kyōka Suigetsu's ability isn't as powerful as everyone imagines."
5th Division Captain: "Without sufficient information on a target, it's impossible to construct an illusion convincing enough to be believed from the inside."
Kyōka Suigetsu possessed the ability of complete hypnosis — capable of overriding all five senses, making a target fully believe whatever its wielder desired about the appearance, form, weight, texture, and even scent of any chosen object.
But the prerequisite was that the Zanpakutō's master possessed the intelligence to make someone trapped in that illusion believe it was real.
Lighthouse Richest: "Ohhhh~~~"
Lighthouse Richest: "Personally I think what you just said is probably true — but because you're the one saying it, it's actually harder to believe."
Lighthouse Richest: "And if it is true, doesn't that make you even more frightening?"
Lighthouse Richest: "Someone who can perfectly calibrate the parameters for every different person they encounter — making every individual who falls under Kyōka Suigetsu believe completely that what they're seeing is real — isn't that even more terrifying?"
Lighthouse Richest: "That kind of terrifying person makes people feel considerably more on edge."
Lighthouse Richest: "Honestly, if we weren't separated by a whole world, I suspect you'd have already gathered all our information long ago."
5th Division Captain: "..."
Well. He'd brought that on himself.
Kaseshiko: "Exactly — the more I watch Bleach, the more I appreciate how frightening Aizen actually is."
Kaseshiko: "I saw a reader theory somewhere suggesting that the phrase running through the whole series — 'Shatter, Kyōka Suigetsu' — might not be the release command at all, but the dismissal command. It seems unlikely, but if it's Aizen, it's not impossible."
Kaseshiko: "Who knows whether anything he's revealed is even true."
Child of Nature: "So — why haven't any of you used the chat group shop to look up Kyōka Suigetsu's actual specifications?"
Child of Nature: "Aizen will deceive you. The chat group won't."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Mind blown .jpg"
Ordinary Group Leader: "I didn't even think of that!"
Child of Nature: "You're so wary of Aizen's ability — haven't you considered buying Kyōka Suigetsu yourself?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Of course I want it — but I also need to be able to afford it."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Frustrated .jpg"
Ordinary Group Leader: "But thinking about actually using it — doesn't it need parameter input? Can't it intelligently recognize and execute the command on its own?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Never mind, never mind. This is not something a brain like mine can operate."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Pass."
Turn Da Gu Into Soup: "Kyōka Suigetsu is like Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit — it's a supporting element."
Turn Da Gu Into Soup: "The reason they seem so overwhelmingly powerful is precisely because they're being used by Whitebeard and Aizen."
Turn Da Gu Into Soup: "Wings on a tiger."
Daigo said it with sincere feeling.
Your own strength being genuine was the only real strength. Last mission, if not for the Holy Lord, his transformation device would have been taken from him.
The Sparklence could be repurchased, technically — since the ability to transform into Tiga was ultimately rooted in the genetics and light energy within his own body, the Sparklence being just a device to channel that into physical form. But a Sparklence wasn't cheap.
A hundred thousand points — the same price as a Natural Type Devil Fruit.
Golden Flash: "Hey, everyone, let me say something."
Ordinary Group Leader: "What is it? About the Naruto situation?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "You don't need to feel guilty. It's fine."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Missions will come again. Letting it affect your state of mind would be the worse outcome."
Ordinary Group Leader: "Even though it's not a setting in the anime, I think the concept of a [Cultivator's Heart] still holds true — an unsettled mind makes it harder to walk your path."
Kaseshiko: "[Cultivator's Heart]? Is that a concept from Huaxia's fantasy novels?"
Worst Spirit: "Have you read any, Shiba-jiejie?"
Kaseshiko: "A bit, in the past — some things got a little off due to translation, so it always felt slightly off."
Kaseshiko: "Now, thanks to the Language Mastery ability I drew from the lottery earlier, every language in the world feels like my native tongue. It's considerably better than before."
Kaseshiko: "The protagonists in Huaxia novels tend to be more decisive than the ones from my world."
The protagonists in her country's stories placed a lot of weight on what others thought of them — they were warm and friendly even toward strangers. Huaxia's protagonists weren't like that. Some of them operated on a philosophy where one person mattered above the whole world.
Though both types existed in both countries — it mostly came down to how the story was handled.
At the end of the day, as long as it was compelling, that was what mattered.
