Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

"Yes, it is a very ancient ghost way, and few people know about it nowadays."

"I also saw it in an ancient book and asked Mr. Shan about it."

Kyoraku Shunsui considered his words carefully before introducing:

"I heard that before the Gotei 13 was even formed, there were already Shinigami using 'Kidō'."

"Back then, the ghost path hadn't yet been divided into the three paths of destruction, binding, and return. Even the chanting language was different from today's, more obscure and difficult to understand, with unfamiliar words."

"The current ghost arts were further improved after the establishment of the Shinyang Spiritual Arts Academy."

Kyoraku led Soi Fong and Kuchiki Byakuya to an open space and said:

"excuse me."

He took off his Death Tyrant suit, revealing his muscular upper body.

Then, Kyoraku Shunsui said:

"The '閧' just now is such an ancient ghost technique. I just happened to learn how to use it out of curiosity."

"I'll demonstrate it once, please watch carefully."

I saw Kyoraku Shunsui standing still, slowly regulating his breathing.

Suddenly, Soi Fong keenly sensed that Kyoraku Shunsui was releasing his spiritual pressure.

He suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Shut up!"

The spiritual pressure that had just been released was suddenly compressed by the huge sound and then exploded in all directions.

The explosion of spiritual pressure brought about a strong wind, and Soi Fong widened her eyes in disbelief.

She clearly saw that the spiritual pressure released from Kyoraku Shunsui's shoulders and back, which were concentrated outside, was particularly strong!

Kyoraku calmed his breath for a while, put on his clothes, and approached the two people:

"This ghost technique involves gathering spiritual pressure through a loud shout, which then explodes from the entire body."

"As for the function, I presume it's to boost momentum, or to deflect incoming attacks."

"I heard from the old man that there was once a very powerful person who could use this ancient ghost method continuously."

He gasped and said helplessly:

"But you can see that even I find it difficult to shout this out."

"It's incredibly difficult to continuously yell '閧' using the Kidō Release technique."

Then, Kyoraku Shunsui pointed at his own Death Hacō suit:

"Also, because of the acupuncture points, most of the spiritual pressure will burst out towards the shoulders and back, which can easily damage the death suit."

"In short, I find it very inconvenient, which is probably why I don't use it anymore."

But Soi Fong had long since stopped listening to Kyoraku Shunsui's words.

There was only one thought in her mind:

All strung together!

【Shunkan】The reason why it is called this name.

That’s because, it is actually an ancient ghost technique that erupts continuously in an instant - [閧]!

Chapter 6 Three Years Later

The storm swept in and thunder exploded!

Chojiro Suzu narrowly avoided the golden blade that was slashing at him.

But the sharp wind attached to the blade still scratched his face.

Regardless of the blood flowing from his forehead, Chojiro finally seized the opportunity and shouted:

"Bankai: Huang Huang Yan Ling Li Palace!"

Dark clouds gathered, condensing into lightning and covering his head.

It's like a canopy for aristocrats traveling!

He turned around and swung his sword downwards—

Eleven lightning bolts instantly pierced the ground in front of him, barely blocking another lightning bolt that was shooting towards him!

One horizontal and eleven vertical, a clash of lightning!

Chojiro Suzuki's elegant hairstyle had been lifted by static electricity, but he didn't care at all and praised loudly:

"Suifeng, you're becoming more and more proficient in [Instantaneous Wind and Thunder Combat Technique]!"

Soi Feng appeared across from the lightning and chuckled:

"Teacher, you have to be ready for this next move—"

Compared to three years ago, she has grown a little taller.

The exposed white shoulders and back are no longer as skinny as before, with muscles sticking out.

On the contrary, although she is still a little thin, the perfect proportion of fat allows her to finally show a hint of girlish figure and beauty.

Her short hair has grown to shoulder length, and with careful care, it has been changed into a smooth princess cut style.

The tomboy three years ago has now grown into a beautiful daughter of a military family.

She confronted the old man with a black and gold katana, exuding an indescribable heroic temperament.

As soon as she finished speaking, Soi-Fong sheathed her sword.

Suzuki Chojiro's eyes suddenly became serious, and he took a charging stance, ready for battle.

"call--"

Soi-Fong let out a long breath, placed her right hand on the hilt and gripped it, while her left thumb quietly pushed out the small sword.

The invisible ghost spiritual pressure on her shoulders and back suddenly exploded, and her whole body shot out like lightning.

Chojiro Suzuki's pupils dilated, and he lost sight of Soi Fong:

"How could that be? It's much faster than last time!"

"Oh no, it's too late—"

"clang!!---"

The violent sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the training ground.

A Zanpakuto stood upright on the ground.

The blade, which was slightly unsheathed, just blocked Soi Fong's Iai slash with the bonus of [Instantaneous Wind and Thunder Combat Technique].

——Flowing Blade Jakka.

"Alright, Soi-Fong, give Que-bu some face."

"He's no longer young. He can't catch such a fast sword. Next time we spar, you are forbidden to use Iai."

After seeing the Zanpakutō clearly in front of her, Soi Fong withdrew the booming Shunsaku and stood up to sheath the sword.

"Roger that, Captain."

Yamamoto also sheathed his Ryujin Jakka and continued to use his Zanpakutō as a cane.

He turned his head and slightly opened one of his squinting eyes:

"Choujiro, please wipe the blood off. You look so messy."

"Yes, Captain."

When Chojiro Suzuki saw Yamamoto appear in the center of the battlefield, he had already withdrawn his Bankai, and now he even put away Yanlingwan.

He took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from his forehead.

Then, he thought of something and took out a mirror with exquisite patterns.

After opening it and looking at his own face, Chojiro suddenly chuckled:

"Captain, please take a look."

"Ok?"

Yamamoto opened one of his narrowed eyes slightly.

There was only a crooked wound left on Chojiro Suzuka's forehead.

Looks like the character "丿".

The latter smiled with a nostalgic smile and said happily to Yamamoto:

"Sir, now I am also a '丿字斋'."

Yamamoto raised his eyebrows, snorted two streams of air from his nostrils, and cursed:

"Humph, you idiot, what's so funny about this!"

"Let's go, let's stop here for today."

After saying that, he left the training ground dejectedly and headed for the hot spring where he would soak every day.

Soi Fong came forward and was about to speak with concern.

Chojiro Suzuki stopped Soi Fong from apologizing and said:

"It's okay, it's fine."

He said with relief:

"It's been a month since we last met, and you've gotten much faster."

"The Iai technique that the captain-sama taught you has also gained some spiritual power."

"In time, perhaps you won't need me as your teacher anymore, and will instead seek guidance from the Captain-General."

Broken Bee shook her head, her hair fluttering in the air:

"Teacher, you're joking."

"The more I learn, the more I discover the profoundness of Captain-General's swordsmanship."

"If I can master this Iai style within ten years, I will wake up laughing in my dreams."

The two chatted and laughed as they left the First Team's training ground.

Today is the monthly captain's meeting. As usual, after the meeting, Soi Fong will come to ask for advice from Captain Chojiro.

Captain General Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, after teaching Soi Fong the sword technique, also had the habit of watching the battle for a while, and then going to the hot spring to take a bath while cursing.

Three years later, Soul Society was at peace and stability, and Soi Fong lived a stable life.

Three years ago, she learned the 'Kido Reiatsu' and the ancient Kido [Kuro] from Kyoraku Shunsui, and had an idea for development.

A year later, Soi Fong, who successfully learned the ancient ghost art [Shunkan], was able to enter the internal collection of the Shihoin family with the help of Oomaeda Kiyoshin, looking for clues to develop Shunkan.

In exchange, she became the teacher of the current head of the Shihouin family, Shihouin Yushiro Sakimune.

The little boy Yushiro is still young and looks a bit like his sister Yoruichi.

There isn't much for Soi-Fong to do. All she has to do is go to Shifengyuan's house and beat up the little boy's mother every month.

In short, in the internal collection of the Shihouin family, she found a notebook signed by "Shihouin Chihiro", which recorded the correct usage of the ancient ghost way [閧].

It turns out that this ancient demon technique is not activated by chanting the single word "閧" as demonstrated by Kyoraku Shunsui.

Instead, one needs to use the thinking of Kaido, release the Kidō spiritual pressure on the shoulders and back, and then precisely control it and actively detonate it at a suitable concentration.

At that concentration, the sound of the Ghost Path Spiritual Pressure exploding just from the first ignition is just a "閧".

There is no need to open your mouth to chant single words, but to use the sound of the ghost's spiritual pressure exploding to trigger the ancient ghost formation "閧".

Then, you can use this roar as a chant to cast the next ancient ghost technique [閧]!

In Chihiro Shihoin's notes, she admitted that the reason her Hakuto was so powerful was that she utilized the characteristics of [閧], allowing the power to be stacked instantly.

She also pointed out that if each roar could be precisely controlled to trigger the next [閧] at just the right time, perhaps a stable cycle could be formed, greatly increasing Bai Da's combat effectiveness.
