Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

Komamura Sajin shook his head, trying not to think about such a horrible scene.

He sighed:

"Fortunately, Vice Captain Aizen is our teammate, not our enemy."

But inexplicably, no one responded to him.

The big dog was a little embarrassed and his ears drooped a little.

Soi Fong had been staring at the field, and now she spoke:

"Why didn't Aizen just sink Mayuri Kurotsuchi into the sea?"

Kyōraku and Ukitake were stunned upon hearing this.

Before they could answer, Soi Fong pointed to the field again:

"Look, if floor counts as 'sea level'..."

"Shiba Isshin is also lying on the 'sea surface'."

Kyoraku Shunsui reacted the fastest, stroking his stubble with amusement:

"interesting."

"Sui Feng, you are worthy of being the captain of the 11th Division. Your battle sense is so sharp!"

"It's clear that the decision of standing on sea level or falling into the water is not in Aizen's hands."

Kyoraku Shunsui looked at the elegant man wearing glasses in the field and said:

"Just like the rules of a game, there are also mechanisms involved."

“Only when the necessary conditions are met can one sink into the sea.”

There was an inexplicable glint in Kyoraku Shunsui's eyes.

——It is the same type of Zanpakutō as his [Katen Kyōkotsu]!

"So, if we crack the mechanism, we can deal with Vice Captain Aizen's Bankai?"

Kyoraku scratched his head:

"Not really. It sounds simple, but it's actually quite troublesome..."

"Aizen himself understands the mechanism and has an information advantage."

"And Kurotsuchi Mayuri...still knows nothing."

At this time, the captains watching the battle saw:

Kurotsuchi Mayuri stumbled and stepped into the "sea".

Chapter 185 Sea Burning Moon

"!!!"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri was horrified and quickly spread his hands to steady himself.

Fortunately, he did not sink to the bottom of the sea and drown like [Golden-colored Ksitigarbha].

Instead, it was like stepping into knee-deep water in a pool.

"Oh yeah?"

Aizen's voice came from a distance:

"It seems that you are about to sink, Vice Captain Nirvana."

"Shut up!"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri said this through gritted teeth.

At this moment, he was naked, his Bankai was broken, and he was in a dilemma.

Even Aizen, who was looking across from him, had to raise his head, which made him even more annoyed:

"What's up with your Bankai? What's the mechanism?"

"That's a really rude question."

Aizen walked up from the "sea" step by step, looking down at Kurotsuchi Mayuri:

"Only an idiot would seriously explain the mechanics of Bankai to the enemy during battle, right?"

Seeing Kurotsuchi Mayuri gritting his teeth, Aizen waved his hand and said:

"Of course I'm not targeting you, Vice Captain Nirvana."

"Besides, we're not real enemies, we're just sparring, so I can tell you..."

Aizen walked slowly past Mayuri Kurotsuchi, not caring at all how much this action would insult Kurotsuchi's self-esteem.

He said as he walked:

“If you want to stand on the surface of the sea, you must not have any self-doubt.”

"Especially, there must be no doubt about whether or not we can win."

"After all, this sea doesn't exist."

Aizen stopped, stood in front of Shiba Isshin, and said:

"So, I'm curious."

"The head of the Shiba branch family, Mr. Shiba Isshin."

"You are so seriously injured..."

“Why do you still have the belief that you will win?”

The seriously injured Shiba Isshin fell to the ground, or rather, the "sea surface".

A small pool of blood had formed beneath his body, and the skin not covered by the tattered Death Tyrant suit was also a suspicious red-purple color.

In the poisonous mist attack that Kurotsuchi Mayuri used with [Golden Jizo] just now, he was not spared like Tosen Kaname.

After all, if Tosen got instructions from Aizen.

On the surface, he lay down and pretended to be poisoned, but in fact he used his Zanpakuto [Kiyomizu] to release sound waves to resist the invasion of the poisonous fog.

As for Shiba Isshin, he was actually stabbed in the back by Aizen.

Outside the arena, Ukitake, who had been keeping an eye on Shiba Isshin's condition, nodded and said:

"That's true."

Because Shiba Isshin is Shiba Kaien's uncle.

This time, he went out to apply to become the captain, and the purpose was to avenge Shiba Kaiyan.

Therefore, Ukitake kept an eye on Shiba Isshin's situation and said:

"I fought back but was fooled by the enemy and ended up lying on the ground seriously injured. In this desperate situation, anyone would have thought of giving up."

"If we follow Aizen's explanation, Shiba Isshin should have lost his fighting spirit and sunk to the 'bottom of the sea'."

"But why is he still able to float on the 'sea'?"

Kyoraku Shunsui replied:

"If you care, you will become confused."

Seeing Ukitake's confusion, Kyōraku explained with a smile:

"Have you forgotten? Or you told us."

"Why did Shiba Isshin delay becoming captain?"

"Why is Shiba Kaiyan delaying the wedding?"

"I remembered!"

Ukitake suddenly realized:

"He's practicing... the Shiba family's unique secret technique!!"

"Is that the source of his confidence?"

"Looking at it now, this is the only explanation."

Nodding, Kyoraku Shunsui added:

"Besides, this kid from the Shiba family hasn't used his Bankai yet."

"Well, but Aizen just revealed that Shiba Isshin's [Yumei] consumes this much spiritual pressure and blood even in the Shikai stage..."

"I'm afraid his Bankai's physical demands are even higher, right?"

Shaking his head with some regret, Kyoraku Shunsui said:

"I'm afraid we won't see the situation like today again."

In the center of the battlefield, above the "sea".

Shiba Isshin, who looked like a carpet, struggled to raise his head after hearing what Aizen said, revealing his unshaven face:

"...Well, it's hard for me to ask you that."

"How should I put it? If my physical condition allows, I should be able to use my Bankai to deal with this situation."

"Besides, if I fight to the death, I still have some hidden tricks that won't work..."

"But today is just a sparring match. Losing doesn't necessarily mean you won't be captain. Just wait until the next assessment."

"I don't really want to use my desperate skills in a place like this."

"Vice-Captain Aizen, you said I didn't sink to the bottom of the sea. I think these are probably the two reasons."

Aizen frowned upon hearing this.

He didn't believe that this Grim Reaper, who was much younger than him, had the ability to threaten him.

Although Shiba Isshin has not yet used his Bankai, Aizen has such confidence.

"But why is he still above the 'sea'?"

Aizen couldn't help but think:

"Blind confidence? Silent view of the world?"

"It seems that there are still loopholes in the mechanism of this modified Bankai."

"Even though it can scare a smart person like Kurotsuchi Mayuri..."

Aizen looked at Rug Isshin with a doubtful look:

"But it doesn't seem to work on idiots..."

At this moment, Kurotsuchi Mayuri's sharp voice came from behind Aizen:

"Hey, Shiba-chan!"

"You're saying that if you were in perfect health, you could use your Bankai and take out this sea of Aizen?"

It's really overestimating one's abilities.

Aizen frowned when he heard this, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Shiba Isshin on the ground say:

"That's what I mean, Vice Captain Nirvana."

"Oh, by the way, sorry, I just burned your leg..."

“Stop talking about things that make me angry!!”

Nirvana's knees sunk into the floor as he cursed.

Then, he took a deep breath to calm his anger, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face:

"Kid, remember what you just said."

"Okay, get up!"

"Use your knife to burn this disgusting sea!"

He snapped his fingers, snorted and threatened:

"If you're just bragging, don't blame me for doing something to you in the future..."
