You are Captain Kusajishi Riku, and there's been a new development in the running battle between the Seireitei's Captains and their invading reigai copies. Coming to the aid of the Head Captain, you and Yoruichi made a dramatic entrance in kicking the reigai of Captain Kyōraku and Captain Ukitake through a row of nearby buildings, giving you a brief moment to orient yourselves as the reigai of Captain Unohana heals them.

From your brief interactions with Yamamoto it seems the two have favored a hit-and-run strategy, using their shikai abilities to wear away at the older Captain and in turn relying on reigai-Unohana's abilities to recover from any injuries they receive. The latter has been hiding her reiatsu in order to avoid combat, allowing her compatriots to do the heavy lifting and ensuring that all of her efforts can be focused on maintaining her side's combat effectiveness. Eventually this led to Yamamoto's near-collapse, as the constant strain began to overwhelm him even in his shikai form.

Now you're faced with the task of facing down that combination of three of the oldest and most experienced Captains in the Seireitei.

“They will be back," Yamamoto warns you. "I have yet to be able to track down the copy of Retsu, who has been healing them with her own prodigious talents."

"Well then, old man, the answer's simple!" Bambietta insists, raising her left arm and readying a reishi bomb.

"Oh?" Yamamoto asks, raising one bushy eyebrow.

"We just kill them until they stay dead," you agree, drawing your swords while Yoruichi does the same next to you. "Then deal with Unohana's reigai once they're out of the picture."

"I can only hope the rest of our number are dealing with this situation with the same exuberance," Yamamoto grumbles. "I, on the other hand, have had just about enough for the day. You youngsters can take over from here while I rest my old bones."

“Just leave it to us,” Yoruichi nods confidently as a pair of shunpō bring the reigai of Shunsui and Ukitake back into view. “You two took your sweet time. Don't you know it's rude to keep a lady waiting?”

“It's partly your own fault, Lady Yoruichi,” reigai-Ukitake observes in the same calm voice as you'd imagine the original would use. “Had you not broken so many of my ribs without so much as a 'hello' it wouldn't have taken so long.”

“Hello!” Yoruichi greets him sarcastically, flipping the pair of butterfly swords in her hands once before attacking him with a shunpō of her own. Their four swords cross in the space between them, as Yoruichi immediately binds the two blades of Sōgyo no Kotowari and shifts her weight to pivot around the meeting point.

“Goodbye!” she taunts as she delivers a sweeping, acrobatic kick to the side of reigai-Ukitake's head that sends him crashing through a nearby roof.

“Bushō-Goma!” Shunsui counters, whipping up a pair of scything wind-gusts that surround Yoruichi on all sides. But before he can follow through with an attack from above with Taka-oni, an explosion blasts him in the chest and he falters. The walls of wind dissipate and free Yoruichi, who immediately dashes off after Ukitake once more while you exploit the opening Bambietta gave you to engage reigai-Shunsui.

Tenkotsuki and Kobara no Tachi clash with Katen Kyōkotsu's blades, forcing the reigai to do what the real Captain abhors and use both his long and short sword at once. The edges slide against each other as you struggle for leverage, until reigai-Shunsui breaks it off with a series of swipes that you expertly deflect with the carefully-angled “flowing parries” of old school kenjutsu.

“Be careful with those blasts,” you warn Bambietta through your still-active Tenteikura. “Ukitake can...”

Even as you speak you're forced to slam your left fist into a reishi bomb, which explodes on contact with your body. Thankfully by countering with as much physical force as you can muster you've managed to mitigate the effect, but you wouldn't have wanted to take that at full power.

“Hey!” you shout over your shoulder. “What did I just say!?”

“Sorry!” Bambietta shouts back, her tone striking you as oddly mortified. From here her cloak makes it hard to tell that she lobbed that shot without benefit of her right arm. “Contact fuse!”

Contact fuse... so that confirms a standing suspicion that she has to set the 'fuse' length when she uses the technique, either for exploding on contact or for exploding in proximity as an airburst effect. She'll be switching to the latter, but you're still not entirely convinced Ukitake can't redirect her attacks: especially if he figures out that he can hide his reiatsu and delay the bomb blasts for long enough.

And then there's the issue of Unohana, who still hasn't revealed herself. You decide it's best to...

This Ukitake's going to be much scarier than his normal self because of real lungs, but this Shunsui might not be quite as bad as the real deal. Not being able to hold back means he can't be as sneaky with his tricksy sword

You know this brings up a question. They are clones that are made with the most up-to-date data. they can't replicate Hollow abilities, they can't replicate divine reiryoku, and they have no hesitation whatsoever, yet they didn't enter bankai immediately when engaging in combat. If the clones truly have no hesitation, why haven't they simply unleash bankai and just curbstomp everyone already?
>>
>>48307599
Some, like Hitsugaya and Komamura, did so. But in the case of people like Ukitake and Shunsui the copied personalities are also painfully aware that their respective Bankais could take each other out along with a good deal of the invading army.

So if they thought there was ANY chance of using such measures successfully they would do so without hesitation. But the though "I could do this" would have to cross their minds first.

You decide to allow Bambietta to continue what she's been doing, searching out openings to strike and trusting her to take extra caution with Ukitake now that she knows what his shikai can do with her own attacks. Yoruichi in the mean time tries to get creative with bakudō while you continue to clash with Shunsui, carefully trying to avoid playing his “games”... or at least the ones you're familiar with.

“Sajō Sabaku!” Yoruichi shouts, trying to fire off the coiling chain of light at close range while she's locked blades with her reigai opponent. To your shock Ukitake manages to absorb the chain of kidō through the tip of one of his blades and kicks away from your wife to aim the tip of his other sword not at her, but at Bambietta.

“Shit!” Yoruichi curses, realizing at the same time you do that Ukitake can absorb and redirect bakudō as well. “Bambi, move your ass!”

The shout is enough to get Bambietta to dodge, and even if she hasn't turned her head quite fast enough to see the attack coming she can probably feel it. You also can't help but notice the spell moves faster after having passed through Ukitake's zanpakuto: clearly he can tweak details like power and speed to mess with his opponent's timing. Luckily that sort of subtle trick doesn't work on a Sternritter who's never seen what Yoruichi's kidō should be like in the first place.

The chain misses cleanly, though in the excitement you realize almost too late that reigai-Shunsui has managed to gain an elevation advantage by vaulting into the air.

He looks down at you with a glare. “Taka-oni.”

The shorter of his pair of wide, curved blades cleaves straight through your shoulder and emerges near your waist, only for your body to fade away as your Utsusemi positions you behind and above your attacker.

You smile: now you have the high ground.
>1/2
>>
>>48307703
But Shunsui has other plans. Again you barely notice in time that the reigai Captain has stabbed his long sword into the ground at his feet as you close in for the killing blow.

“Kage-oni,” he mutters, as the tip of his blade emerges from the shadow you've cast on his own back.

With a grunt of exertion you manage to generate a cushion of reiatsu to kick off of, rolling to one side of the reigai copy of your fellow Captain and sheltering beside him. You see a confused look in his eyes as he glances over at you, before he's hit in the ribs by one of Bambietta's bombs. He throws an elbow as he tumbles to get clear of the ground and right himself, kicking lightly off his font foot as he clutches his smoldering side. With a second light step he jinks into an alley and out of view.

>>48307817
yes, our spell suppression field is 100% dedicated towards negating clone-Kaoru's Bankai spell-buff for the clone army. So while the playing field is evened out, ppl can still use some spells. Also, we're operating at tail level 4 because Rosa's working on getting repairing and maintaining our left arm.

>Use the opportunity to land a decisive blow against Ukitake.

Have Yoruichi pin his sword arms. so we can go for the lethal backstab/decapitation.

So Rosa is doing that silly quincy things with ghost threads on our arm, does that mean if we made contact with our arm with someone she could switch from keeping our arm at peak performance to making an impromptu snare around someone with those threads?
>>
>>48307900
In theory, yes. But that arm would be immediately weakened, meaning they'd be snared directly to your greatest current liability.

Rosa wouldn't do it unless you specifically told her to.

You wouldn't lose any progress. That's not how it works. We would lose efficiency, yes, but it's not like the arm would unlearn what it has learned in the brief span of time we have been using it.

Also, this handicap a shit.

With two enemies temporarily out of the picture, you immediately move to attack Ukitake as he duels with Yoruichi. But before your hirenkyaku can bring you into range, Yoruichi glances over her opponent's shoulder and shouts in alarm.

“Riku, behind!”

“Bakudō 81: Dankū!” you reply, turning to raise the barrier behind you in time to intercept a massive column of electricity launched at you from a figure standing atop a nearby roof.

When the barrier falls, you get a clearer look: it's Unohana.

“Unohana Retsu...” you greet her, amidst a temporary lull in the fighting. “It didn't take much to lure you out.”

“Three on two hardly seems fair,” the reigai responds with a polite bow. “So you'll have to forgive my intrusion in your fight.”

“Coming from someone perfectly willing to go three-on-one from the advantage,” you counter with a smirk, “that comes off as pretty disingenuous.”

“Fair,” reigai-Unohana admits. “Regardless of any sense of fair play, your Bankai is as elegant as people say. Too bad I cannot see its full power... a result of your using it to counter our Kaoru's Bankai. You do not have to speak to confirm or deny it, I know it to be true. Just as I know that your zanpakuto is using Tenteikura to coordinate your allies' response.”

“Then I've just got one question,” you reply. “What're YOU gonna do about it?”

“Why, I plan to remove you from the stage,” she replies calmly even as Yoruichi and Ukitake exchange another series of probing blows. “Permanently.”

Reigai-Shunsui re-emerges from the alley he ducked into, a frown across his face. “I thought we shared a certain respect, Lady Riku, but you didn't even try and chase me down? I'm hurt that you think so little of my power that you'd let me escape.”

An explosion goes off in his face, forcing him to backpedal with shunpō to avoid losing his nose. “My, what a feisty one you've got there. Normally I like feisty, but this is a problem you know.”

“I'm just gonna ignore how creepy that sounded,” Bambietta sighs, shaking her head in disbelief. “Your call Captain. You know these three better than I do.”

“Bambi,” you order in a firm, authoritative tone, “go assist Yoruichi. That will draw Shunsui over with you. I'll take care of Unohana myself.”

Grumbling at your use of what must be a fairly common “pet name” for her, the Sternritter leaves to join Yoruichi. An airburst bomb or two forces Ukitake to divide his attention between two opponents, while Shunsui seems to focus on Yoruichi to take some of the strain off his companion. Yoruichi for her part seems to actually enjoy the fight, using her two swords in exactly the sort of style they were intended. Slapping parries and sweeping redirections frustrate her attackers' repeated attempts, and the powerful kicks of her Heihuquan kung fu ensure that she can punish any opening they leave regardless of whether she has a blade readied or not.

“She's good,” reigai-Unohana comments. “Better than I remember in fact, though I must admit I've wanted to fight you more for quite a long time.”

“That so?” you ask, sheathing Kobara no Tachi with a single fluid move of your left arm. You're still not entirely sure what the best method is to fight Unohana... she's fast, and extremely proficient in kenjutsu. In fact she may even be better than you are if the rumors are true, which will make using kidō and kenjutsu in tandem rather difficult. You could also choose to engage in your own style of kenjutsu and hakuda, testing her fabled kenjutsu prowess, or else keep your distance and exchange kidō. In the latter case her experience and skill are largely countered by your raw power, meaning that it would be a more or less even match.

Hirenkyaku carries you instantly forward, right up into Unohana's face. Unfortunately she sees you coming and draws her own blade in a lightning-fast movement, slashing above you as you drop low and sweep your own blade towards her exposed hip. She steps back, avoiding the point of Tenkotsuki's blade and bringing the hilt down towards you from above: the zanjutsu technique known as “Onibi”.

You're familiar with it, of course, as well as its counters. A strike with your left elbow as you follow through with your swing disrupts her attack, allowing you to keep rotating. The roundhouse kick from your right foot nearly sweeps her legs out from under her as she's forced to backpedal again.

“You're fast,” she commends you as her support hand produces a long blade from her sash. She hurls it at you point-first like a lethal dart, forcing you to draw and through one of the anken Yoruichi always leaves in your possession.

Your smaller knife lacks the mass to reverse the flight of reigai-Retsu's weapon, but the blow does alter its trajectory just enough for it to miss you entirely. But she's followed through brilliantly, using shunpō to close the gap and attack with a lethal upward swing from her right hip. The long, curved edge of Minazuki's blade would probably have gutted you from crotch to shoulder if you hadn't rolled out to the side so quickly.

“And your reactions are finely-honed,” she continues to praise you. “Lady Yoruichi trained you well.”

“That was Kukishin-ryū kenpō,” you observe carefully, piecing together her use of upward swings and thrown blades. “You've been rumored to have mastered every style... that's not right, is it? Instead you've mastered a few of the oldest styles, and simply kept up with them as they evolved over the centuries.”

“Am I wrong?”

The reigai smiles eerily at you, returning Minazuki's blade to a ready guard. “That is correct, of course. In terms of your technique, I am sorry I did not meet you before Zaraki. With some encouragement you'd have made a fine Kenpachi.”

“Not my style,” you shrug.

“I know,” she replies, before coming at you again. This time, you carefully lure her in close to cross blades once more. As your swords stop and you push carefully against each other, you take her by surprise.

“Tsuzuri Raiden!” you roar, electricity surging through your blade and arcing across Unohana's body. Though she responds with little more than a grunt of pain you're left with an opening to pound away at her with your left fist. Two punches she blocs with her elbow but one gets through to her ribs, and she rolls out and to the side to try and take your back. But Minazuki's blade is stopped by Tenkotsuki's.

You try your best to angle the edge towards her. “Ōkasen!”

The spell tears into her arm, forcing her to use shunpō to escape. When you turn to face her you can see a sinister look on her face as she glances down at her wound, which is already starting to heal. Even the two other reigai seem unnerved by the new development, confirming your worst fears. A new challenger has appeared.

“Unohana Yachiru,” you mutter as the most infamous, diabolical murderer in the history of the Seireitei meets your eyes. “I was wondering when you would show up.”

“I fear this sort of brutality has become necessary,” she admits. “Even in your current state, your level of ability demands that I take you seriously as the First Kenpachi.”

“Which reminds me,” you wonder aloud, curiosity momentarily overcoming your concern, “does that mean Zaraki's not really the Kenpachi, since the real Unohana was never killed? Or did you pass it on by choice?”

“It hardly matters,” Yachiru tells you, that eerie grin still clinging to her lips.

Reigai-Yachiru's blade begins to ooze with a sticky red fluid that you quickly realize is blood, dripping in ever-stronger rivers of flowing carmine. The blade itself seems to dissolve into the stuff, and her reiatsu grows much stronger. Your raw power advantage has largely disappeared as bloody stains smear the ground around your reigai opponent.

“Now then,” Yachiru greets you with a murderous glare the likes of which you haven't seen since the Bakumatsu, “show me a good time, Lady Riku. Let me fight to my heart's content for the first time in centuries!”

Raising her blade of flowing blood, she attacks with a roaring laugh.

>Remain evasive until you figure out what this Bankai can do, only attack from a distance.
>Try to use kidō to contain her abilities as best you can while observing her.
>Try and get up close and overpower her with shunkō.
>Something else?

You may wanna really discuss your tactics here, because you've awakened something nasty.

Welp. Her speed and power is overwhelming regardless, so we should probably keep our distance until we can get a feel for that.

I'm guessing much of her bankai abilities has to do with all that blood. The more blood that spills from either bodies or from her blade, the more powerful she grows.
>>48309276
But another thing that needs to be considered is the collateral. Are we willing to cross the distance and bring her to both kennys with all the wound we could possibly accumulate?

As the blood seeps across the rooftops of the First Division barracks, you quickly realize that you don't even want to be NEAR that stuff if you can help it, let alone accidentally stepping in it. It's almost certainly not normal blood.

“I see why you never use that Bankai,” you smirk, sidestepping Yachiru's attack with hirenkyaku to get as far away as you can with a single step, “cleaning bills must be a bitch.”

“You don't really think you can run, do you?” Yachiru replies, her voice almost rasping as she swings Minazuki in a wide arc. From the blade a series of blood droplets fly free, as if she'd used a blade-cleaning flick from iaidō. The droplets elongate like needles, forcing you to dive for the ground to avoid them all. So it seems she can control and shape blood? No, that can't be all.

She's anticipated that response, and she's ready when you roll to the ground. Her blade comes down towards you and you raise your own blade to parry... only for your eyes to widen in shock as Minazuki's blade passes completely around your own. The strikes are simultaneous: you leave a small slash across Unohana's right side, just under her breast, while she slashes a shallow arc across your left bicep.

“You adjusted quickly,” she commends you as the slash on her own torso begins to steam and close. “But not quite quickly enough. My Bankai allows me to control the physical and chemical properties of blood, both my own and those of my victims. For example...”

With a gesture of her hand, your left arm suddenly feels as though it's caught fire from within, burning the veins and arteries as you stifle a scream.

“Riku, she's raising the acidity of your blood!” Rosa shouts in your mind. “Stop it!”

Thinking quickly you activate shunkō around your left arm, but in a move almost as painful as the acid you reverse the normal flow of reiatsu... and in doing, begin to force your blood to flow in opposite directions through its pathways in your arm. You manage to effectively isolate it from the rest of your bloodstream using pressure differentials and reiatsu flow, ensuring that the acidic blood Yachiru introduced to your system won't reach your heart or brain.

“Impressive,” reigai-Yachiru compliments you. “But can you fend me off for long while having sacrificed your left arm?”

After a few moments of contemplation, Rosa chuckles to herself. “Actually, this may be a blessing in disguise.”

“Think you can lure her into attacking your left arm a few more times? Healing damaged tissue is way easier to do than altering healthy tissue... this may actually accelerate my work exponentially.”

She does have a point... very quickly and this liability of yours may either disappear, or even become an asset. Had she not clipped your arm then run her mouth like that, you'd still be pondering the best method to bring her down with less of a clear idea what her abilities were.

Really, a blessing in disguise.

“Can do,” you nod, turning to face reigai-Unohana. “Now then, let's get down to business!”

You attack with a ferocity that belies your inner caution, focusing on avoiding Yachiru's blade while probing for an opening. A thrust of your blade bends into a slash, which you have to withdraw from early when a sweep from Minzuki's bloody blade threatens your right wrist, but a series of punches with your left hand draw another swing that you allow to graze your left arm. You can feel the burning acidic effect of her technique, but you grit your teeth and bear it. Sometimes the best medicine is also the most bitter.

“Almost there,” Rosa assures you as you backpedal from a nearly fatal sweep of Yachiru's sword. “One more should do it.”

One more she asks. Wonderful. It's like she doesn't even realize how hard this is... hey, is she using that blood-needle attack again?

Perfect.

Two of the blood needles slam into your left arm as you raise it, pretending that you've sacrificed that limb to protect the rest of your body no matter how grievous the injuries to it, and Yachiru grins cruelly.

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhMH8SP0G_s

“So this is the limit of your ability? How disappointing.”

“It's not the limit,” you spit, glaring at your opponent with a bloodthirsty grin of your own. “I'm finally ready to show you what I can really do when I set my mind to the sole purpose of killing someone that needs to die.”

You can feel Yoruichi release Raijūsenkō in an overwhelming burst of power, and spare a glance to watch as she hurls a blast at Ukitake, who redirects it through his blades and releases it straight into one of Bambietta's bombs. The explosion causes your many-layered kimono to billow, flowing dramatically with the breeze of the blastwave. Your focus is already back on your opponent, favoring her with a hard stare.

OMG himself admitted using his Bankai for too long would destroy the soul society. You could interpret this as his control over the heat he produces slipping at some point and causing a chain reaction.

Or you can just deal with it, because bringing back everyone you have ever killed to murder your foes is pretty fucking metal.

>>48310240

>>
>>48310240
If only that was reflected in the actual execution of the skill rather than just being a thing said by people and discarded immediately afterwards.
>>
>>48310269
Well seeing as his sword can "burn things into nonexistence" you can interpret it as him burning something so hard it retroactively ceases to exist save for anyone but his memory. Then yeah, you could rules lawyer it. Because that would mean that technically they never lived as they never existed in the first place because sword shenanigans.
>>
>>48310232
With your mangled left arm still in the process of regenerating, you draw out your other sword. It drops to your side weakly at first, but you struggle to raise it out away from your body, holding it point-down.

“What do you plan to do in that state?” Yachiru sneers.

“Raze,” you growl your response, “Kobara no Tachi!”

The release of reiatsu is unusually violent this time, perhaps mirroring your own sentiments and the desperation of the situation. The wind whips at your clothing as Tenkotsuki's tails multiply and solidify behind you, and you can feel the smooth, cool sensation of Rosa's reiatsu mingling with that of your vulpine companion.

"Since you were so kind as to explain your Bankai," your voice echos in a sinister tone, "allow me to return the favor. You did not strike at my 'weakness' because you were especially clever. You did so because I wished it."

You take a step towards her, then another. Each step is a threat, your attitude one of menacing calm. "Hollows never train, and neither does Mayuri from what I can tell. So when they regenerate their limbs completely there is not much lost. But when I had to do it I lost the benefits of two centuries of intense training."

"So you mean to say..." Yachiru asks, lowering the arm she raised in response to your outburst of reiatsu.

"I should thank you, false Yachiru," you continue. "Without your Bankai my arm would not have healed so quickly, and I would have had trouble killing you."

"But now..."

You pull Tenkotsuki's sheath from your sash, returning the dual-released blade to its home and holding it low at your left hip. “I can end this in an instant.”

“You're serious?” reigai-Yachiru asks, cocking her head in confusion as she returns her own bloody blade to its sheath. “You truly mean to challenge me in iaijutsu, knowing my skill in it?”

“I do,” you confirm in a hiss even as the reigai of Ukitake and Shunsui flee in defeat. “Like I said, I intend to end this in an instant.”

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md-ZT2pOiKc

“Then come!” reigai-Yachiru cries in what's uncomfortably like ecstasy. “Placing our lives on one strike each, I've never been so excited!”

Hirenkyaku on one side, and shunpō on the other... the combined velocity you and your opponent reach is simply insane. Nobody in their right mind performs iaijutsu like this for exactly this reason, a complete lack of control brought on by speeds that exceed what all but the most advanced practitioners can possibly hope to keep track of. Minazuki leaves its sheath, trailing drops of lethal blood behind it in a flawlessly-executed synthesis of everything Unohana Yachiru has ever learned about swordsmanship and rapid movement. This is, without doubt, the true terror of the woman known in the collective nightmares of the Seireitei as its First Kenpachi.

But her eyes widen as she sees what you've done, the blast of air and reiatsu from the collision of her blade of blood not with a sword but with a sheath. The blow disperses her sword, blasting the liquid that comprises its blade back at her even as you bring Tenkotsuki's freed blade to bear and take a second step, straight into the uncertain void separating life and death.

Tenkotsuki and Rosa's combined form plunges deep into Yachiru's chest, though you'd only know it by the sensation you can feel through your hand as the world melts around you in a hypnotic blur.

When your vision returns it's to the sight of utter devastation. The First Division's grounds took the brunt of the attack as you pushed reigai-Unohana's body through building after building, finally cracking the foundations of the Tower of Penance itself as you came to a stop. Yachiru's body remains impaled there, much the same as Aizen's once was to a different wall in the Seireitei, although his wasn't at the center of a giant crater.

"... incredible..." the reigai struggles to speak, blood flowing freely from her mouth. "A replacement... with shunpō... and hirazuki... you burst all of my blood vessels..."

"Simply... marvelous..." she commends you, a bloody tear rolling down her cheek as she breathes her last. "I only wish... Zaraki... could..."

And then she's gone, her body crumbling to dust before your very eyes.

A visibly-shocked Head Captain soon catches up with you and your victim, as do Yoruichi and Bambietta. The latter actually covers her mouth at the brutality of the scene.

“I must admit, Commander Shihōin, I am uncertain as to precisely what happened just now,” Yamamoto declares breathlessly. “Never has there been a shinigami whose flash steps could confound my eyes.”

Yoruichi glances at you as you rest on your sword, thrust point-first into the ground, then back at your victim. “Tell me, Head Captain, how familiar are you with the theory behind shunpō and its limitations?”

“I am familiar enough to know there is a limit, and that the limit is normally far beyond any practitioner's ability to actually reach it.”

“Even I can't take a step that exceeds my mind's ability to process the sensory input," Yoruichi admits. "My subconscious mind won't allow it... but adding a shunpō in the middle of hirenkyaku is one possible way to circumvent that limitation.”

“Using a second step to add speed to the first during an iaijutsu technique? Is that even possible?” Yamamoto asks, sparing a glance at you where you rest.

“Of course it is,” you insist once you manage to find your breath. “They're two different techniques after all, so it's possible to trick your own mind into allowing it... if you're good enough at both, that is.”

“I could do it as well, but I probably wouldn't,” Yoruichi admits calmly as you seal your swords and return them to their respective sheaths, a wave of exhaustion hitting you. She walks towards you and offers you her hand.

“Why not, if it's that fast?” Bambietta asks.

“By definition it exceeds the user's ability to respond to danger,” your wife explains as she helps you walk over towards the others. “Once initiated you're fully committed, win or lose. Or in this case, live or die.”

"To abandon all hope of survival if you fail," Yamamoto nods solemnly. "Truly an act befitting a Captain."

You shrug noncommittally, still feeling that while successful it may have been an unnecessary step. Still, you must admit that to receive a compliment even from the clone of the First Kenpachi felt rather good. Better still the reigai are in full retreat...

>A visibly-shocked Head Captain soon catches up with you and your victim, as do Yoruichi and Bambietta. The latter actually covers her mouth at the brutality of the scene.
Wow. Bambi flinching at the brutality of Unohana's blood spattered death scene? I know Bambi normally wouldn't bat an eye to scenes like this, but after a regen-serum treatment to her brain this makes her mortified? The regen must've done wonders to her sanity despite the mediocrity of the dice roll.

No. She hit her so hard and fast that it was beyond either of their ability to respond, and Rosa's special cero basically ignited most of her blood from the inside.

Almost anyone else would have been dead the instant they were hit, reigai-Yachiru survived as long as she did because her Bankai started to heal her, but there wasn't enough blood left in her body to save her life. Only enough to delay the inevitable.

>>48311245
so no regai pill amongst the dust? Or is the roll to find out if her soul pill survived?
>>
>>48311245
Is the soul candy still okay since she wasn't incinerated?

Also I love how you gave a plausible explanation for Unohana's bankai based on what we've seen that also makes it incredibly terrifying.

The Last Wolf strikes again, is it wrong that I pictured a hybrid of the Sōryūsen Ikazuchi and the Gatotsu considering we stabbed and impaled her to the Tower of Penance?

Man I can't help but feel that this song truly exemplifies Riku and her willingness to go all in on the defense of SS, Especially considering what she just did.

Gatotsu is based on a historical technique used by the Shinsengumi, which Riku has used on several occasions, and adding a second step to hirenkyaku is basically Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki but different in terms of the mechanics.

So no, that's actually pretty close to accurate.

You feel several things happen almost all at the same time, all across the Seireitei. You realize that nobody you particularly care about's life is in danger, and that the shinigami you left behind in the Rukongai have returned with Kūkaku. But that's not the surprising news.

You can also feel that Ichigo has come through the Senkaimon with Tatsuki and two smaller presences you aren't familiar with. They're currently surrounded by what feels like Fifth Division security officers. In the Kuchiki manor you can also sense the presence of four Lieutenant-level shinigami surrounded by many weaker spirits: these four feel like Renji, Momo, Nanao, and that Kira kid you never especially liked. That's good news at least, you were hoping they were alive.

At the Ninth Division barracks you feel the sudden arrival of Sung-Sun, Mila Rose, and Lilynette as they come popping through the wall of the inner grounds like a champagne cork. That's probably the result of frantically trying to force their way through the portal that had until just recently been blocked, and probably means that whatever is interfering has been removed completely when the reigai retreated. Halibel steps through calmly a few seconds later, as if she had to that point been content with watching the other three struggle.

Above you however are three more presences, none of which you recognize but all of which are falling fast. Yoruichi notices. The Old Man takes a step back. But Bambietta is perhaps too distracted to realize the danger.

Rather than push her out of the way, you simply let the chips fall where they may: and that turns out to be directly on top of the one-armed Sternritter.

“The FUCK!?” she shouts in shock as three bodies slam into her, raising a pall of dust.

When the dust settles, three figures in uniforms that roughly match Bambietta's own have appeared in front of you in varied states of disarray from their hard landing.

“Owowowoooo...” one of the three whines, rubbing the back of her neck. Her uniform is... well there's really no way to say it politely, it reminds you of a hooker, and not the classy kind. She comes complete with a tied-together top to show off as much of her midriff as possible. “Why'd it suddenly give way like that?”

“You shouldn't have been pushing so hard,” the shortest of the three, seemingly a young girl, tells her sternly. “You always do it too rough, that's why nobody likes to play with you anymore.”

“What was that!?” the trashier of the pair growls.

“You heard me.”

“Would the two of you cut it out for two minutes,” a pink-haired woman insists, resting her wrists on her hips. “I think I hear her somewhere.”

With a gasp, Bambietta throws the tramp off her head with her one good arm. “Holy shit I couldn't fucking BREATHE! WHY IS YOUR ASS SO DAMN BIG!?”

“I think it's a nice ass!” the Hooker-ritter insists, pouting. “You don't have to be mean, Bambi. Especially after we came all this way.”

“Yeah, speaking of which why the fuck are you here?” Bambietta asks, clearly irritated. “You're a bit late to apologize for abandoning me.”

“We're here to rescue you, of course,” the pink-haired Sternritter informs her former comrade.

Meanwhile the tramp leans over, peering closely at Bambietta's stump. “Hey, Bambi... you're missing something here.”

“I hadn't noticed,” Bambietta grumbles. “Wait... you didn't bring that THING with you, right?”

“It's not here, is it? Get the fuck away from me!”

“Relax, Giselle stayed behind to explain to Aizen,” the short one tells her. “Quit being hysterical.”
