Chapter 616: Deal

Only two people could defeat Unohana Retsu in a millennium. One is Zaraki Kenpachi, who wounded her at the time, and the other was Roja.

Zaraki’s power laid in his Physical power, Reiatsu, and his instincts.

But Roja is different.

Roja didn’t expose his formidable Reiatsu or superior physical power, he used mainly his swordsmanship, and he crushed her.

And Unohana could tell that Roja didn’t use all of his Reiatsu and didn’t release his Zanpakuto.

This makes her quite shocked.

Her Reiatsu was one of the strongest in Soul Society. Only a few were superior in that aspect. Except for Yamamoto and the Zero Squad, only Kenpachi had stronger Reiatsu.

Roja’s Reiatsu, while not completely released, had matched her own, and that was without him using Shikai or Bankai.

Even if Roja couldn’t use Shikai or Bankai like Zaraki, it made him even stronger than Zaraki.

Because not only does he have a huge amount of Reiatsu, but he also was a master when it comes to the swordsman. This was a scary combination that made him scarier than Zaraki.

“This is… Swordsmanship…”

Unohana looked at Sen Maboroshi in front of her chest as she slowly spoke.

She didn’t want to know how powerful Roja’s Reiatsu was, nor does she care if he can use Shikai or Bankai. What she cared about was his swordsmanship that crushed her own completely.

“The path of the sword I’m currently following is the same as yours, but I’m just ahead of you in that path.”

Roja smiled faintly as he took Sen Maboroshi back.

If he were to point Unohana’s current Swordsmanship realm, he would say she was a borderline grandmaster. She had her unique style as well secret technique; her sword intent was strong and so on… She understood many types of sword intent like the flowing water and raging fire as well as the slaughter sword intent.

Her knowing all the sword style of soul society wasn’t just empty talk. She indeed grasped many styles and sword intents.

But that may be the cause of her lack of strength as well, as she learned different styles, which caused her intent to scatter all over the different styles, and she couldn’t fuse all of them to reach higher realms.

“Is this the difference between realms?”

Unohana took a deep breath as she looked at Roja.

She always knew that it wasn’t the end of the path, she always knew that there was a higher realm to swordsmanship.

“Right, it is.”

Roja nodded. Then he looked at her and smiled: “Let’s make a deal, I tell you about this realm, and
