Chapter 1280 Prima
Yhwach, being left alone after Ophis and Lilith suddenly left, helped himself to the tea that doesn't seem to run out or get cold.
As he took a sip from his cup, he also felt the strange, but somehow very familiar fluctuation of power, "What a fascinating experience. So this is how it feels to be seen." He muttered to himself.
Since he's blindfolded, he can't even see his own reflection from the cup. The world could end as he sat comfortably but there was nothing he could do.
Yhwach thought that he would feel nothing as everything around him collapsed as this is a very 'flawed' world that he tried to 'correct'. However, he was wrong. Very wrong as he's finding himself feeling frustrated without being able to take action.
He hated the world where 'death' is accepted and seen as an inevitability. However, what he hated more was it disappearing into nothing, much worse, into the stomach of someone who thinks they are the 'one'.
Nevertheless, his inability to do anything on his own doesn't mean others can't take action on his behalf. So when he heard Kisuke's conjecture about Ichibei's true goal, he didn't hesitate to reveal the secret of his own defeat.
Yhwach was defeated not because he was cut by Ichigo's Zangetsu but by a Zanpakuto Spirit that was formerly known as 'Yhwach'.
