Chapter 5: Kariyashiki Kenpachi vs Zaragi Kenpachi, the reappearance of Yaqian-ryu
Although he didn't know what these scale ice crystals were, since it was a gift from Genichi, Hitsugaya regarded it as a precious thing and carried it with him.
He made the ice crystal into a pendant and hung it around his neck. I don't know if it was his imagination, but after putting on the pendant, he felt that his heart was cold and he felt calmer than ever before.
"You are indeed a teacher... I have no idea when you came."
He sighed. In fact, judging from the traces of spiritual pressure on the box, it was only the time of one foot and one foot, but in such a short period of time, he was completely unaware of the arrival of Yuan Yi.
There is not much information about Yuan Yi in Jing Ling Ting. Even though he once played a great role in the Dark Holy War, he is only briefly mentioned in Jing Ling Ting's textbook, and even his name and appearance are not mentioned.
The content about him is not even as good as Kazan and Stark, purebreds.
That's because Genichi was born as a slave of the Tsunayashiro family and is involved in the dark history of the five nobles. Moreover, according to investigations, he once caused certain losses to the Joireitei when Ejijiba attacked Soul Society, so the official
Only then will his information be deleted intentionally.
Even if Hitsugaya is the captain, it is difficult to find some information about Genichi.
"Teacher...who are you?"
Hitsugaya fell into deep thought...
………………
Another year has passed in the blink of an eye. This day is the time to challenge the eleventh floor of the Tower of Delusion, and the challenger is Zaraki Kenpachi, captain of the eleventh division of the Gotei Thirteenth Division.
He arrived at the central restricted area early in the morning. Even Zaraki Kenpachi, who had always thought very highly of himself, even to the point of not knowing how deep the sky was, felt a huge sense of oppression in this area.
When he came to Jinglingting, Liang Yue was already fighting against the power of life and death in the central penalty area, otherwise he would definitely fight with Liang Yue no matter what, but now...
It would be a good idea to use the minions in this tower as an appetizer first.
He put his Zanpakutō on his shoulder, then walked towards the Tower of Delirium, and soon reached the eleventh floor.
The gatekeepers on the eleventh floor were also stunned when they saw Zaraki Kenpachi, because the captain Haori Zaraki wore symbolized the eleventh squad.
"It's amazing. He was able to defeat Matsushima and reach the eleventh floor. It seems that Kenpachi is getting more and more powerful." Kariyashiki said with sincere appreciation.
"Ah? Why is Matsushima not Matsushima? I just came here and wanted to kill each other with you. Others don't care at all, right?" Zaragi said with a completely indifferent expression.
"...He is indeed Kenpachi of the Gotei 13." Kariyashiki also smiled, and then drew out his Zanpakutō.
"Then let me test how good Kenpachi is now."
Then, swing the knife!
A knife that can kill the air!
Use your full strength as soon as you take action. This is the respect for the person who is a "Kenpachi"!
In an instant, Kenpachi was stabbed in the body, and the blood immediately surged!
"Why don't you hide?" He swung his sword and seriously injured Zaraki. Kariyashiki did not continue the attack, but frowned.
As for the fact that he couldn't avoid such ridiculous things, he never even thought about it.
Although he is very strong, not many people can resist his sword, but since the opponent is 'Kenpachi', he must be able to withstand this sword.
Not to mention, Jinglingting was not stupid enough to send minions after seeing the strength of Matsushima Masaaki.
In fact, the difference in strength between the gatekeepers on the 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th floors is very small. In a real fight, there is a high probability that no one will be able to defeat the other.
"Ah, that's really good strength, so I don't have to worry about you being hacked to death easily."
Sure enough, when he was hit by Kariya Shiki's sword, Zaraki Kenpachitan didn't show any pain, but instead looked excited.
"Hey, hey, are all the guys after you like you? Really, let that little devil take the lead."
"...It seems that you have also entered the state." Kariyashiki saw Zaraki Kenpachi taking off his blindfold, and a violent spiritual pressure was immediately released.
The former squinted his eyes. In his eyes, Zaraki Kenpachi finally looked a little like Kenpachi at this moment.
With his level, he could naturally see that the eyepatch Zaraki took off was not some kind of enhancement machine, but was set up to suppress the spiritual pressure that was devouring him.
In other words, after taking off the blindfold, this man's true strength is revealed, and that is...
Kenpachi's strength.
Then, the two wielded their swords at the same time, a head-on confrontation, the swords collided, the most primitive and direct fight between spiritual pressure and muscle power!
In the beginning, Zaraki was at an absolute disadvantage even after taking off his blindfold. Every time Kariyashiki swung his sword, he could create a deep wound on his body.
But the more wounds Zaraki had on his body, the more blood flowed, the more excited his eyes became, and the more violent his spiritual pressure became!
"You guy..."
Kariyashiki was shocked. He had never seen a death god like Zaragi grow so fast during the battle...
wrong!
Can this really be called growth...
Not so much growth...
Rather, it is like adjusting one's own output according to the opponent's strength!
"...What's wrong?! You should be liberated if you have a Zanpakutō, right? You can become stronger, right? Show me the swastika to make the battle more interesting!"
The force of swinging the sword became heavier and heavier, and the speed of swinging the sword became faster and faster. Kenpachi said even more excitedly.
"...If you don't liberate, I won't liberate either." Although the enemy seems to be a freak, Kariyashiki is also extremely excited. This is the resonance between sword and sword, heart and heart, Kenpachi and Kenpachi!
One sword, two swords, three swords...
They were galloping among the lightning and flints, and then their figures intertwined, and their swords collided amidst the roar of spiritual pressure.
"I'm not liberated!" Zaraki said excitedly, "I only need myself!"
There are no fancy abilities, only the most basic level slashing, but no one will underestimate their fighting skills.
puff!
For the first time, as the battle continued to deepen, Zaraki Kenpachi slashed Kariyashiki's body for the first time, but at the cost of being slashed himself.
His body was completely covered with blood, but just like a bloody man, no matter how hard it flowed, it wouldn't stop.
Faintly, part of the power emanating from the blood seemed to enter his right arm.
The other part slowly rises until it reaches the highest level of the Tower of Delusion.
"..."
There was another sword collision, and the explosive spiritual pressure dispersed the two, but this time Zaraki Kenpachi did not continue to rush forward.
"...If you continue like this, I will be hacked to death by you."
He almost turned into a bloody man, with sword marks everywhere on his body, and Kariya Shiki also had several wounds on his body. Although the wounds were extremely deep, they seemed nothing compared to Zaraki Kenpachi.
"You are very strong..." Kariyashiki admired sincerely
"But you can't become a true 'Kenpachi' unless you defeat him."
Kenpachi is passed down from generation to generation, and every generation of Kenpachi is looking forward to the emergence of Kenpachi who is more powerful than himself.
Although Saraki is very strong, if he cannot defeat himself, he will not be recognized by Kariyashiki.
In fact, Zaraki's growth rate has exceeded his imagination. From the beginning to now, he has actually surpassed himself in physical functions.
But because I suffered too serious injuries in the process, I ended up at this point.
"...Then, let's decide the outcome with one blow."
Kenpachi rarely held the handle of the sword with both hands, and suddenly all the power and spiritual pressure fell silent like a volcano about to erupt.
Just waiting for the final blow to explode...
The same was true for Kariyashiki. Although he was aware of the power accumulated in Zaraki, he was not afraid at all.
He would not be merciful with this blow, because if Kenpachi died here like this, it would only prove that he was not worthy of this title at all.
And if he kills himself, then he deserves to die!
So, in the silence, two huge forces climbed to the highest peak.
"The Gotei 13, Kaiyashiki Kenpachi."
After hearing these words, Zaraki was a little surprised. Before that, he had no idea that this opponent who was enjoying the fight would actually be the former Kenpachi.
Then, he showed a satisfied smile
"The Gotei 13, Kenpachi Zaraki."
Then……
The space was torn apart in an instant!
Two extreme flashes of light shot out, like lightning striking from the sky intertwined, and the entire eleventh floor was trembling violently.
Zaraki Kenpachi used the two-handed sword he learned from Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni to further liberate his power. Even with a seriously injured body, the power released was extremely amazing.
boom??!!
The two figures intertwined, Zaraki and Kariyashiki standing in the other's previous position.
Then……
Had a huge impact!
This impact was so powerful that it created a huge storm as if even the Tower of Delusion was about to be blown away.
After the storm disappeared, a stab wound appeared on Zaraki's body from the upper left to the lower right. He stood there and slowly put his Zanpakutō into its sheath.
"amazing……"
But Kariyashiki still maintained the sword-drawing posture. He held the hilt of the sword with both hands and rushed forward with the tip of the sword, whispering
"you……"
"Worthy of Kenpachi."
"You're not bad either." Zaraki's face was no longer as excited as before. After the vigorous battle, he only remained dull.
The next moment, a huge wound appeared on Kariyashiki's chest, and blood spurted out three to four meters high in an instant!
Then, Kariyashiki's legs softened and he fell to the ground.
"..." Zaraki turned around, looked at the fallen Kariyashiki, and walked over silently.
However, just when he was about to reach Kariyashiki's side, the mutation happened again!
A large area of darkness suddenly appeared in the space ahead, as if it were a passage connecting different dimensions, and in this passage, a woman's figure appeared.
That figure was surrounded by blood-red air currents, but Kenpachi could still recognize her appearance!
Unohana Yachiru! The woman who once ‘defeated’ him!
No, that's not right, what's going on?
Kenpachi suddenly felt something was wrong. Although the appearance was the same, the spiritual pressure was completely different.
Is this really Unohana? If it is her, what is this weird feeling?
It's like...
It's like something very important to me...
Only some experienced people in Jing Ling Ting could tell that she was the long-lost Yaqianliu during the battle in the Screaming Cave!
No matter what it is! The call in his heart is telling him that this is a person worth killing!
Just knowing this is enough!
So swing your sword!
Even though he had just experienced a big battle, Kenpachi didn't hesitate at all and swung a powerful sword in an instant.
"You're still far behind now."
However, the woman who appeared just said this, as if...
Saraki, who was strong enough to kill Kariyashiki Kenpachi, was nothing special in her eyes.
And, that's exactly what it is.
In the space crack, looking at Zaraki Kenpachi slashing at him, Yachiru just made a quick move.
Blood-drinking dance!
The magic sword in his hand swung wildly in a wide range in front of him like a whip, hitting Zaraki dozens of times in an instant!
Then, fell to the ground...
The gap in strength is so huge...
Zaraki Kenpachi is pitifully weak in front of today's Yachiru.
However, Yachiru did not kill Kenpachi to gain the name of Kenpachi, but...
"Become a demon..."
He said slowly to Kariyashiki who was lying on the ground.
"Become the top of Puno."
Minato and Nosei are the blades of Puno, and now she wants to turn the Giraku Corridor of Kariyashiki into the tip of Puno.
Her level is also close to the limit, so naturally she has to consider ways to reach the limit and break through the limit.
And the way to break through the limits is, of course, fighting.
Kenpachi Zaraki is the best helper for her breakthrough.
After Zaraki and Unohana fought, it was the two of them who decided on the final Kenpachi, and the winner...
Not only can he obtain the power symbolized by the name "Kenpachi", but he can also allow Yachi-ryu to break through himself in extreme battles.
Therefore, not only did she strengthen herself, she also had to make Zaraki Kenpachi reach his Shinigami limit during that battle.
Otherwise, it will be impossible to achieve true extreme fighting.
And when Unohana was fighting Zaraki, the souls belonging to Kaizen and Nosei in her blade would of course also go back, and would return after they were defeated.
Therefore, it is necessary for Yachiru to contract with the devil again.
And Kariyashiki's Hungry Corridor is a pretty good ability.
Although Kariyashiki herself didn't like it and was forbidden to use it, Yachiru didn't have this idea. No one could ban what she wanted to use, and no one could force what she didn't like.
"Do you hate it?"
Looking at Kenpachi who fell to the ground with a look of unwillingness, Yachiru softly said
"Hate your own powerlessness. Remember this scene forever. Remember that you only survive because of my mercy, and then..."
"Avenge this shame and work hard to improve..."
"Carrying such momentum and power..."
"Challenge me again."
Yaqianliu said softly
Then, her figure completely disappeared into the crack, and the next moment the darkness also disappeared...
