So, keep reading to find out how Yhwach’s elite soldier will bring trouble down the road.
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Season 3 Episode 4: Yhwach’s Elite Soldier Returns
After the brutal fight, events will take a darker turn in Bleach Season 3 Episode 4, “The Betrayer.” The episode will likely cover the manga chapter 618, bringing Yhwach’s Elite Guard Uryu into the picture. Uryu is now free and is ready to assist him. This will create challenges for Ichigo and his friends. The latest stills suggest that the fourth episode will focus on Uryu and Ichigo’s face-off for the first time. As for Ichigo, he is still reeling over Ukitake’s sacrifice and how he and Mimihagi tried to replace the Soul King.
Despite that, he and his friends will do their best to stop Uryu and Yhwach. Since Ukitake is dead, the Right Hand of the Soul King isn’t able to deal with Yhwach. This shows that he is way more powerful than others, and it won’t be easy for them to stop Yhwach. If Mimihagi falls, it doesn’t seem like another element of the Soul King can stop him. This might lead to a power struggle, creating challenges for Ichigo and his friends.
