Ichigo and his friends had finally reached the throne room of Yhwach, the Quincy King and the son of the Soul King. They were determined to stop his plan of destroying the three worlds and creating a new one in his image. However, they were met with a terrifying sight: Yhwach had absorbed the Soul King and gained a dark mask of eyes covering his face. He was oozing with darkness and power, and he looked down at them with contempt.
"Welcome, my children. You have come to witness the end of this world and the birth of a new one. I am the Almighty, the creator and destroyer of all things. You have no hope of defeating me. You are nothing but insects before me." Yhwach said with a cold voice.
Ichigo clenched his teeth and gripped his sword. He knew that Yhwach was not bluffing. He had seen his power firsthand, how he could see and change the future, how he could steal and use any ability he wanted, how he could erase anyone from existence with a single touch. He had lost many friends and allies to Yhwach's might, and he was not willing to lose any more. He had to fight, even if it seemed impossible.
"Shut up! You're not a god, you're a monster! You don't care about anyone but yourself! You've killed countless people for your selfish desires! You don't deserve to live!" Ichigo shouted.
He charged at Yhwach, followed by Rukia, Renji, Uryu, Orihime, Chad, Byakuya, Kenpachi, Toshiro, Shunsui, Urahara, Yoruichi, Grimmjow, Nel, and the other remaining Shinigami, Quincy, Arrancar, and Fullbringers. They unleashed their strongest attacks at Yhwach, hoping to break through his defenses and strike him down.
However, Yhwach was unfazed by their assault. He easily dodged or blocked their attacks with his sword or his hand. He countered with his own attacks, using various Schrifts that he had stolen from his subordinates or enemies. He unleashed waves of darkness, bolts of lightning, blades of wind, spheres of fire, beams of light, and other devastating forces. He also used his Almighty to foresee their movements and alter their fates. He inflicted wounds on them that could not be healed or reversed. He mocked them for their futile resistance.
"You are wasting your time and energy. You cannot harm me. You cannot surprise me. You cannot escape me. You are doomed to die by my hand. Accept your fate and despair." Yhwach said.
As the battle raged on, Ichigo and his allies began to lose hope. They realized that they were no match for Yhwach's power. They watched as their friends fell one by one, either killed or incapacitated by Yhwach's attacks. They felt their own strength fading away as they sustained injuries that drained their life force. They wondered if there was any way to stop Yhwach's madness.
Suddenly, a sonic boom echoed in the air above them. They looked up and saw a red-and-blue blur flying towards them at incredible speed. It was a man wearing a blue suit with a red cape and a yellow emblem on his chest: an S-shaped symbol that stood for hope¹. It was Superman , the superhero who protected Metropolis and the world from various threats². He had heard about Yhwach's invasion from Batman , who had contacted him through the Justice League satellite³. He had decided to join the fight against Yhwach and help Ichigo and his friends.
He flew past Ichigo and his allies and headed straight for Yhwach. He punched him in the face with such force that it sent him flying across the room. He followed him with another punch that knocked him through several walls. He grabbed him by his cloak and threw him into the air. He flew after him and unleashed a blast of heat vision from his eyes that burned through Yhwach's mask and flesh.
Yhwach screamed in pain and anger as he felt Superman's attacks. He had not expected such a powerful opponent to appear out of nowhere. He had not seen him in any of his futures. He wondered who he was and where he came from.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? What is that symbol on your chest?" Yhwach asked.
"I am Superman , the Man of Steel . I am here to stop you from destroying this world and creating a new one in your image. This symbol is the symbol of my people , the Kryptonians . It means hope , something you have taken away from many people." Superman said.
"You are a fool to oppose me. You do not know who you are dealing with." Yhwach said.
"I know enough. I know that you have the power to see and change the future. I know that you have the power to steal and use any ability you desire. I know that you have the power to create and destroy anything you wish." Superman said.
"How do you know that?" Yhwach asked.
"Because I have faced enemies like you before. Enemies who thought they were gods and tried to impose their will on others. Enemies who underestimated me and my friends. Enemies who learned the hard way that I am not someone to be trifled with." Superman said.
He punched Yhwach again, sending him crashing into the ground. He landed next to him and prepared to deliver the final blow.
"Goodbye, Yhwach. You may call yourself the Almighty, but you are not the only one who can change the world. You are not the only one who can make a difference. You are not the only one who can inspire hope." Superman said.
He raised his fist and brought it down on Yhwach's chest, shattering his heart and ending his life.
He had defeated Yhwach with his own strength.
He was Superman .
The end.
