Help! I am bound to Aizen!

Chapter 131

Chapter 131

K?ga Kuchiki was somewhat surprised.

Under normal circumstances, when he used his Bankai, he could easily draw out the opponent's Zanpakut? spirit and turn it to his side.

The Zanpakut? spirit would possess the opponent's released Zanpakut? abilities, while the Shinigami who originally held that power would lose it.

With this shift, no matter how strong the Shinigami was, their strength would greatly diminish, becoming a soul under his blade.

But this time, even though he had used Bankai, Shunsui Ky?raku's Zanpakut? spirit did not appear.

What was going on?

As K?ga was puzzled, Muramasa came to his side.

"K?ga, he has used a secret technique to seal his mind. I can't communicate with his Zanpakut? in a short time."

So that's it!

K?ga showed a look of realization.

Under his gaze, Shunsui Ky?raku's eyes appeared vacant, and his body's agility was far less than before.

This was the side effect of someone not adept at sealing their mind suddenly forcing it.

If it were any other ordinary captain trying this during battle, even without Muramasa's abilities, he could have easily cut them down.

But Shunsui Ky?raku was different.

This guy was too strong; even with slowed reactions, he was still enough to suppress him.

Looking at Shunsui Ky?raku, K?ga spoke:

"Captain Ky?raku, while you and I are fighting, the assassins have already gone after Yoruichi Shih?in."

"I wonder how long she can hold out."

Upon hearing this, Shunsui seemed to have a delayed reaction. After a moment, he smiled.

"…No need for you to worry about that. My junior brother is over there, and his strength is no less than mine."

The latter part was something he said casually.

Although Kaelith was quite strong, comparing him to one of the oldest captains in the Soul Society like himself was a bit of a stretch.

But when K?ga heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

Did Kaelith have such strength?

Although he didn't fully believe it, it still made him feel a hint of anxiety.

"K?ga!"

Sensing his master's distraction, Muramasa hurriedly reminded him.

Even with the delayed reaction, Shunsui keenly seized this opportunity.

He gripped his twin swords and used Shunpo to appear before K?ga, swinging his blades to strike.

Although he hadn't released his Zanpakut?, both the long and short blades were enveloped in dazzling spiritual pressure.

Each strike carried terrifying power, like fierce waves of sword energy!

Bang!! Bang!!!

K?ga raised his sword, hastily blocking the continuous attacks.

Shunsui's movements weren't particularly precise; affected by the delay, he couldn't respond to the opponent's moves promptly.

But his spiritual pressure was immense, and his combat experience was rich.

Before making a move, he had already predicted how K?ga would defend based on his own attacks.

He wasn't fighting the K?ga in front of him but the one in his predictions!

"Ugh!!"

K?ga's expression turned grim.

This man with vacant eyes and a face full of stubble was completely overpowering him!

Since awakening his abilities, he had never fought such a frustrating battle.

"Muramasa! What are you doing? Hurry up!"

Feeling irritated, K?ga couldn't help but urge his Zanpakut?.

Muramasa: "…"

He wanted to act, but the problem was that the opponent's defense was too tight; he couldn't find an opening.

Just as he was becoming anxious, a terrifying explosion sounded from the distant Ky?goku House.

Even from a distance, one could feel the scorching heat wave rushing toward them.

K?ga looked over in surprise.

What happened?

Over there… that should be the tavern where Kaelith and Yoruichi Shih?in were, right? Such a terrifying explosion—even someone as strong as himself might suffer greatly.

Did the assassins attacking Yoruichi Shih?in possess such power?

Half a second later, Shunsui also showed a shocked expression, glancing toward the Ky?goku House.

Instinctively, he wanted to rush over to help.

At the moment his thoughts wavered, Muramasa's eyes lit up.

An opportunity!

He extended his right hand, with long purple nails, aiming at Shunsui Ky?raku.

"Respond to my call! Awaken, rebels!"

Not good.

Hearing the voice from behind, Shunsui's expression changed. He hurriedly tried to reseal his mind.

But a figure had already silently emerged from his sword.

It was a purple-haired woman wearing a black kimono, adorned with a skull-shaped hair ornament.

Then, another figure emerged from his other short sword.

A petite girl with short purple hair, wearing a mask.

The moment the two appeared, Shunsui clearly felt that his swords had suddenly become empty.

The ability to release his Zanpakut? had left him at this moment.

Although he had anticipated K?ga's abilities, when this moment truly arrived, he still felt a strange sensation in his heart.

The power that had accompanied his soul for hundreds of years was so easily stripped away by someone else…

Looking at the two beauties, one tall and one short, before him, Shunsui smiled bitterly and adjusted his straw hat.

"Oh dear… ladies, if you're playing a joke, this isn't the right place for it."

Hearing this, the long-haired woman curled her lips.

"A joke?"

"Don't worry, Ky?raku, there's no joke here."

She extended her hand, her slender fingers grasping the air.

In an instant, a beautifully crafted large broadsword appeared in her hand.

Staring coldly at Shunsui, her gaze turned icy.

"I've long wanted to teach you, who doesn't cherish yourself, a lesson."

"Come and fully experience the concern of your Zanpakut?."

As she spoke, she swung the broadsword and approached Shunsui.

Watching Shunsui entangled in battle with Katen Ky?kotsu, K?ga finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there were some minor hiccups, he had finally defeated Shunsui Ky?raku.

Indeed, with Muramasa's power, he was invincible.

His father-in-law might act all high and mighty on the surface, but deep down, he must also fear his power.

Those cold words and lack of recognition were, in the end, just manifestations of fear.

Understanding this, he couldn't help but feel it was quite laughable.

Previously, he had always thought of his father-in-law as an untouchable existence—how foolish he had been.

In this Soul Society, only power matters.

As long as he became strong enough, his father-in-law would have to acknowledge him sooner or later.

Perhaps… even bow before him!

Imagining that scene, K?ga took a deep breath, calming his excited emotions.

Looking at Shunsui Ky?raku battling his Zanpakut? spirit not far away, he closed his eyes and began using Muramasa's abilities to explore Shunsui's memories.

He wanted to see clearly what kind of power Kaelith possessed.

Soon, he found what he wanted.

After a brief reading, he frowned.

This Shunsui Ky?raku… claims to be Kaelith's senior.

Yet he doesn't even know the specific abilities of Kaelith's Zanpakut??

Fine, in that case, I'll go confirm it myself!
