Soi Fon: "You think i'll let you do just that??"

Suzumebachi: "Only one way to find out!!!"

Soi Fon: "Che!!!"

Both Soi Fon and Suzumebachi flashed and started moving at high speed clas.h.i.+ng with each other . . . At the same time, Ikkaku leapt forward and struck at Hōzukimaru with his scabbard . As Hōzukimaru blocks, Ikkaku slices at him with his sword before attacking him with his sword and scabbard .

Hōzukimaru blocks before jabbing at Ikkaku with Hōzukimaru, which Ikkaku knocks to the side with his sword .

Forcing Hōzukimaru back, Ikkaku repeatedly strikes at him with his sword and scabbard, which Hōzukimaru block with Hōzukimaru . As his sword cuts Hōzukimaru's abdomen, Ikkaku continues attacking Hōzukimaru and cuts his face .

Ikkaku: "How's that d.a.m.n it . . . "

Ikkaku: "How is it that you are this weak!!! My Zanpakuto is not weak!!!!"

As Ikkaku continues to slash at him while demanding to know what is wrong, Hōzukimaru blocks Ikkaku's strikes before speaking up . . .

Hozukimaru: "Don't be so quick to judge before proclaiming this battle, as it has only just begun . "

He then swiped at Ikkaku with Hōzukimaru, which separates into a sansetsukon . As the bladed segment of the sansetsukon swings toward him, Ikkaku ducks and knocks the sansetsukon aside with his scabbard before slas.h.i.+ng at Hōzukimaru with his sword again .

Later, on the top of a pillar is destroyed, Yumichika sits against the pillar and pants . Walking in front of him was Ruri'iro Kujaku before he or she smirks . . .

Kujaku: "You know, you always talked big and stated that i am a weakling . "

Yumichika didn't answer back and got up before running forward while attacking . Blocking with his sword, Ruri'iro Kujaku moves to the side as he or she attacked Yumichika, who blocks, before pus.h.i.+ng him back .

Sliding several feet away before stopping, panting Yumichika curses .

Kujaku: "You look very mad . "

Yumichika: "I will never forgive you Ruri'iro Kujaku . "

Kujaku: "I do not expect you to do so . . . "

Kujaku: "Why don't you give up??? I would be willing to let you live if you did so . "

Yumichika: "I'll never Give up!!!"

Yumichika then a.s.sumed a battle stance and Ruri'iro Kujaku sighs he then says the s.h.i.+nigami have no chance of winning against them with their level of ability .

Kujaku: "You always try to hide your true power, but not me!!!"

As Yumichika expressed surprise, Ruri'iro Kujaku's blade glows green before splitting into four curved blades in a burst of green light . Extending from the blades, four multicoloured vines wrap around Yumichika's arms and waist before pus.h.i.+ng a screaming Yumichika into a wall .

Kujaku: "How does it feel to be struck by the power which you hate??"

As the vines tightened around his body, Yumichika looked over his spirit as he struggled before saying . . .

Yumichika: "I do not wish for everyone to know about this power because i would not be able to stay in the 11th Division . "

Kujaku: "You are very stubborn . . . . "

Yumichika: "Shut up!!!!"

Kujaku: "Both of us live according to our appreciation for aesthetics and the beauty must prevail above all . "

Kujaku: "However you have turned into boorish, slow-witted, and hot-tempered s.h.i.+nigami . "

Kujaku: "Kenpachi and Ikkaku have no appreciation for aesthetics and you feel inadequate in the 11th Division because you cannot express yourself . "

Yumichika: "What is your point in all your babbling . . . "

Kujaku: "You will not accept your own powers because you are afraid of how people will perceive you . "

Kujaku: "And that is why you will never win . . . "

The petals on the vines restricting Yumichika began to glow blue and grow larger as Yumichika expresses surprise feeling his lifeforce being sucked away . . .

On the side of Ikkaku, Hōzukimaru raises Hōzukimaru above his head and twirls it before slamming its ta.s.sel into the ground .

Hozukimaru: "Bankai - Ryūmon Hōzukimaru!!!!"

When it slammed in the ground ti caused a large amount of steam to emanate from it as lightning crackles around him while an explosion occurred, creating a large amount of smoke .

Ikkaku watched as Ryūmon Hōzukimaru fell from the sky and embeds itself in the ground around Hōzukimaru taking the fight in their final stages . . .
