Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

Five kilometers away, on the white sand bathed in moonlight.

The captains were either sitting or standing, waiting for the end of the battle.

Many captains looked relaxed and spoke in low voices.

They all knew clearly that this battle had only one outcome.

"Captain Kyōra."

A gentle and magnetic male voice came, and Jingle looked up when he heard it.

Looking up, he saw that it was Aizen. A playful smile flashed in the eyes of Kyoraku Shunsui, who was squatting on the ground.

Then he put on his signature smile and said:

"It's Captain Aizen, what's going on?"

"Please call me Sosuke as before."

Aizen's attitude was very humble, and his humble smile was impeccable.

Xiu Mu Yin Ling beside him nodded imperceptibly.

In his opinion, even after becoming the captain, Aizen is still the humble gentleman he used to be.

"Well, Sosuke, you're still as good at dealing with people as usual~"

Kyoraku Shunsui smiled and stood up.

"What do you want to say?"

Aizen's face showed just the right amount of worry:

"Forgive me for overstepping my bounds, but..."

"Do we really not need to stay and help the captain?"

Of course he knew that Yamamoto was very powerful and would probably be able to get rid of Sal Apollo without much effort.

But on the surface, he is a new captain who has just been promoted.

You still have to pretend to be a newbie.

"Really? No wonder..."

Kyoraku Shunsui looked around and said:

"Besides Captain Soi-Fong who was left behind earlier, there are Captain Tōsen, Captain Shiba, and you, Sosuke."

"In our eyes, you are all the new generation of young Death Gods."

Upon hearing this, Kuroda Mayuri rolled his eyes and turned away.

Kyoraku Shunsui continued:

"Therefore, you only know that the Captain-General is powerful in theory, but you lack an intuitive understanding of it."

"But, it's very difficult for me to express myself verbally..."

Kyoraku Shunsui turned around and looked at the burly dog:

"Captain Komamura, could you please tell me a little bit?"

"Is this Master Yamamoto's strength?"

Komamura Saejin looked up at the night sky at a 45-degree angle, a look of nostalgia on his face.

"I have lived a long life."

"I once found a shallow sword by chance in Rukongai, and after a long time, I finally achieved the state of Shikai."

"Thanks to the captain-sama's guidance and care, I have learned Bankai again."

He sighed:

"It was only after I mastered Bankai that I realized that even if I could summon ten [Black Rope Heavenly Punishment Myoko], I would not be a match for the Captain-General in one blow."

Shiba Isshin also came closer to listen, and exclaimed in amazement:

“Is the gap so big?”

Just as Kyoraku Shunsui was still trying to think of an example, a violent and conspicuous fire suddenly erupted from the Kyūya Palace under the full moon in the distance.

The captains' attention was immediately drawn over.

I saw a violent column of flames rising from the top floor of Xuye Palace, breaking through the broken dome and reaching the sky.

"What a terrifying fire..."

Shiba Isshin murmured.

As a Shinigami who also wields a flame-type Zanpakutō, he knows how powerful such flames are.

"Is that... the shape of a knife tip?"

Aizen narrowed his eyes and asked.

The pillars of fire that shot up into the sky were lined up in a row, arranged from low to high.

From a distance, it looks like a sword piercing from the ground into the sky.

At this time, the strong wind brought by the fire knife piercing the sky in the distance came with a bang.

Even though it was five kilometers away, the hot wind still made the captains' haoris rustle.

Kyoraku Shunsui held onto his bamboo hat to prevent it from being blown away, and then said:

"Yes, this is the forbidden technique number ninety-six."

"[Cremation with a single knife]."

"I heard that this Hado was developed with reference to Captain-General's Bankai."

Upon hearing this, Aizen turned his gaze from the flaming sword that pierced the sky and looked at Kyoraku Shunsui and asked:

"So, the Captain-General's Bankai is just as powerful as this flaming sword?"

Kyoraku Shunsui waved his hand and said with a smile:

"I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself clearly."

"One Blade Cremation. Its form and principle are inspired by the Captain-General's Bankai."

"As for the power... probably only one percent."

Ignoring Aizen's slightly surprised expression, Kyoraku Shunsui called out to everyone:

"Everyone, the captain should end the battle."

"Let's go—"

Before he could finish his words, an extremely strong and terrifying spiritual pressure suddenly erupted from the distance!

It’s the captain!

Kyoraku Shunsui also showed a surprised expression on his face, and turned his head to look again—

Its daybreak.

No, to be precise, half of the sky was bright.

As for Kyoraku Shunsui and his group, there was still a starless moonlit sky above their heads.

And on the other side:

A pillar of fire erupted as violently as a volcano and appeared on the top of Xuye Palace.

This flame was a hundred times stronger than [One-Blade Cremation] and it burned a hole in the sky!

“Yeah, yeah…”

Kyoraku Shunsui licked his tongue to moisten his dry, cracked lips:

"Old man, what's going on?"

"I've used all the tricks from my youth..."

........................

Time goes back to the past, to the top of Xuye Palace.

Yamamoto's casual remark of "one-knife cremation" caused dozens of charred corpses to explode at the same time, bursting into flames.

Then, as if in a mass explosion, all the charred corpses became victims.

Together they unleashed a massive [One Blade Cremation] that covered the entire roof of the Xuye Palace.

I heard the screams of Sal Apollo.

Although Soi Fong was also within the tip of the huge flaming sword, she was not injured, but she could not avoid dry mouth and sweating.

"And this is just giving up the chant..."

"If it were truly fully chanted, how powerful would it be?!"

Broken Bee can feel:

Yamamoto's move [One-Sword Cremation] has an instantaneous burst of power that is equal to his own Bankai [Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip].

If the subsequent continuous burning is added, it will be much more.

Although netizens on the Internet can mock Yamamoto Naka as much as they want.

But at this moment, Soi Fong, who only has second-level spiritual power, feels the huge gap in strength between herself and Yamamoto.

It's hard to compare with it!

At this time, Yamamoto's old voice came slowly:

"Before I founded the Soul Society, I really liked this trick."

"The corpse of a spirit life form still contains a lot of spiritual energy, making it an excellent 'sacrifice'."

"So, the more corpses there are around, the more powerful this move will be."

"All I need to do is burn the battlefield with [Ryujin Jakagawa] once to meet the conditions for unleashing it. It couldn't be simpler."

Soi Fong's eyelids twitched when she heard this.

So this move doesn't require sacrificing one's own body?!

Chapter 201 "The Great Fire Sword"

Soi Fong seemed to vaguely see some of the charm of the former "Fire Demon" Yamamoto.

Just imagine:

After Yamamoto had killed hundreds of enemies, he set the battlefield ablaze with his flaming Zanpakutō.

Then just use [One Knife Cremation] to do a big one.

Who can stand this?!

How devastated would his enemies be?!

Without numbers, you can't defeat Yamamoto.

The number of people piled up and the corpses formed a mountain.

Can this old man Yamamoto even hold back his fire corpse explosion?!

Even Broken Bee wanted to curse:

What Fire Demon Lich King? !

Just as Soi Fong was imagining the scene of Yamamoto playing with the fire corpse explosion.

His voice came again:

"But after the establishment of the Soul Society, this tactic is no longer appropriate."

Yamamoto turned his head and squinted his eyes like a kind old man.

What he said was extremely horrifying:

"The young Shinigami who came after me couldn't quite accept me detonating the bodies of my fallen comrades."

"Alas, their psychological endurance is too poor."
