Battle and Battle

Furthermore, given the current relationship between the Heaven and Earth Trading Company and the Ōmaeda Trading Company.

It makes no sense what you plant or do in those nobles' wetlands.

Not to mention that high-ranking nobles can make requests such as requiring lower-ranking nobles to accompany them on patrols.

They would come knocking on his door every few days, forcing him to send his own family members out to work for him.

For example, while patrolling Rukongai, they were attacked and killed by Hollows along the way.

Or perhaps they encounter a great villain and are killed; these are all highly possible scenarios.

Therefore, it is unlikely that the Central 46 Chambers would target Isshin Shiba, the head of a branch family of the noble Shiba Clan.

But Tokoyo Misao knew that Isshin Shiba would definitely be sentenced to death.

Whether those sitting inside are still alive is another matter entirely.

The reason he brought up this reality was so that if the Central 46 Chambers acted abnormally and issued an order to execute Isshin Shiba, the captains would definitely think of what he said today.

"Hmph, does being a noble give you the right to bully others and disregard the rules?" Kaname Tōsen stepped forward and sneered, loudly rebuking him.

Where is fairness and justice?

Tokoyo Misao's gaze swept over them coldly:

"If we're going to disregard the rules, do those guys in the Central 46 Chambers even have the right to speak?"

"I'm strictly following the rules."

"You're clearly just spouting sophistry!" Kaname Tōsen angry that the veins on his forehead bulged, and the whip tied behind his head twitched.

"Captain Tōsen is right, Captain Tokoyo. Although you keep saying you follow the rules, you use your noble status to bully others even when the rules are in place."

Sōsuke Aizen also came out, his face showing some anger.

"If everyone were like you, what would be the point of rules?"

As he spoke, he turned his head and stared at Byakuya Kuchiki: "As the head of the noble families, doesn't the Kuchiki Clan have anything to say?"

Byakuya Kuchiki replied coldly, "I never comment on things that haven't happened yet."

Indeed, everything Tokoyo Misao said was based on the premise that the Central 46 Chambers would sentence Isshin Shiba to a severe punishment.

But in reality, all the team captains present understood this perfectly well.

Even if we were to capture Isshin Shiba, at most he would only be imprisoned for a short period of time.

"How ridiculous!" Kaname Tōsen angrily.

His right hand was already on his Zanpakuto, and it seemed he was about to attack.

"Stop, Tōsen!" Sajin Komamura stretched out his large, hairy hand and blocked Kaname Tōsen's path.

"Captain Kuchiki is right. We can't act before things have even happened."

As he spoke, he spun his helmet, letting out a threatening growl that sounded like a Tokoyo Misao beast spitting out its throat:

"If Captain Tokoyo really does something against justice, then I will never let him off the hook."

Kaname Tōsen straightened up again and walked back to the line.

The meeting has finally come to an end.

Just as Tokoyo Misao was about to leave, Captain-Commander Yamamoto spoke up:

"Captain Tokoyo, please come to the backyard with Captain Zaraki."

Kenpachi Zaraki suddenly opened his eyes, his breathing becoming somewhat rapid, but he quickly suppressed it again.

He grinned at Tokoyo Misao: "You've waited long enough, haven't you?"

"Did you really learn swordsmanship?"

Tokoyo Misao did not refuse; instead, he went to meet him, walked beside Kenpachi Zaraki, and glanced at him briefly.

He noticed that Kenpachi Zaraki's gait was no longer as erratic as before.

"I see. So you've been learning swordsmanship from the Captain-Commander all this time."

"And they're growing very fast."

Kenpachi Zaraki's breathing rate, gait, and the aura he exuded all indicated that he was no longer a complete beast.

Was Kenpachi Zaraki's original beastly form strong?

Of course it's very strong.

With Rei'i at its peak, and even slightly surpassing it, combined with unparalleled beastly intuition, even the ancient Yachiru Unohana was no match for him.

But a beast is still just a beast, no matter how talented or how strong its instincts are.

Even against someone who has mastered technique, skill, and the application of strength, one will still be defeated.

Kenpachi Zaraki wants to fully unleash his talent, he needs to learn how to use his power.

"I've endured this for so long for this day," Kenpachi Zaraki said, his voice trembling slightly.

It's clear he was really holding it in.

There are very few people in Soul Society who can be his opponents.

Back when he was still Third-Class Spiritual Pressure, the squad Seated Officer could have exchanged a few blows with him and fought back.

However, due to his Tokoyo Misao, his strength was greatly restored.

This led to even subordinates in the team being unable to withstand a single blow, and they couldn't even pass the time.

However, this time he did not instinctively suppress his power again.

Because Yachiru kept reminding him in his ear, "Ken-chan, you haven't beaten Misao yet~"

Even thanks to Yachiru's constant reminders, he continued to release the shackles in his heart during his training over the years, getting closer and closer to his original state as a teenager.

The two arrived in the backyard, where Captain Unohana was already standing in the corridor, and there were dozens of Kidō Corps around her.

They are working together to set up a spirit array.

Tokoyo Misao with some confusion, "Captain-Commander, if you want me to fight Kenpachi Zaraki, why not go to the Muken?"

"Will these things really be able to stop it?"

It wasn't that he underestimated the Kidō Corps; he himself didn't know just how much destruction he could cause when he fought Kenpachi Zaraki later.

"This is a special Senkaimon that allows you to directly enter the Valley of Screams Space within the Dangai."

Unohana spoke softly.

"If the two of you fight without restraint, even the Muken might collapse."

Unohana is the most qualified to speak on just how much damage the two of them can cause.

A thousand years ago, at the height of her power, she was defeated by Kenpachi Zaraki.

As for Tokoyo Misao, she had already lost twice in a row, being pinned down by him.

Chōjirō Sasakibe stepped forward and explained why the two of them were to fight alone in the Valley of Screams Space within the Dangai:

"Perfect timing. We recently discovered that Kōtotsu won't appear. The existence of that place Valley of Screams Space has somewhat sealed off the Dangai, making the use of the Senkaimon a bit difficult."

"You two go inside and have a fight. Deplete the power inside and make this Valley of Screams Space disappear. That would kill two birds with one stone."

That place not only blocked the Senkaimon between the Soul Society and the World of the Living.

This also made Kisuke Urahara and Mayuri Kurotsuchi's research on the Valley of Screams Space and the Dangai extremely difficult.

"I see."

Tokoyo Misao did not refuse and went directly to the center of the spirit array in the middle of the training ground to wait.

Seeing Kenpachi Zaraki approaching carrying his Zanpakuto, he asked with some surprise and confusion:

Yachiru?

Kenpachi Zaraki turned his head with a slight sense of confusion, only to find that Yachiru was not on his back.

At this moment, Captain-Commander Yamamoto finally spoke:

"Only the two of you will go in this time. I'll treat Yachiru to some snacks in the camp."

His heavy gaze fell upon Tokoyo Misao, his eyes filled with profound meaning.

Tokoyo Misao understood instantly.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's meaning was clear: this was merely a friendly sparring match, not a life-or-death battle.

If Yachiru were to go in as well, it's highly likely that Kenpachi Zaraki would eventually lose control and unleash his Zanpakuto.

At that point, it really will be Tokoyo Misao and Kenpachi Zaraki, only one of them can survive.

Except for the fact that the strength of the Tokoyo Misao Kenpachi Zaraki.

But in Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's view, that was impossible.

"Okay."

Tokoyo Misao waved his hand.

The next moment, the spirit array emitted a dazzling golden light.

When they came to their senses, they had already arrived in the Valley of Screams Space within the Dangai.

The special space was filled with boulders and ravines, devoid of any vegetation, and seemed utterly lifeless.

However, the Reishi it contains is comparable to that of Rukongai.

With a smile, Tokoyo Misao drew his Zanpakuto from his waist and beckoned to Kenpachi Zaraki with his left hand.

"Come on, let me see what you've learned."

Kenpachi Zaraki's lips curled up instantly, then he Zanpakuto his Zanpakuto tightly with both hands, took a deep breath, and suppressed his surging emotions.

He assumed a basic sword stance and slowly began to speak:

I will let you experience my swordsmanship firsthand.

Chapter 152 Battles and Fights

"Ha!" A loud shout burst from Kenpachi Zaraki's throat, transforming into a shockwave that slammed heavily onto the surrounding rocks.

However, the roar at this moment was completely different from before; it lacked that wildness and was simply bursting forth with momentum.

He approached Tokoyo Misao step by step, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, his eyes focused.

When he was about three meters in front of Tokoyo Misao, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up. He could no longer suppress his excitement, raised his hands high, and slashed down fiercely.

The immense air pressure cleaved the ground in two the instant he swung his sword, causing the ground to sag for tens of kilometers around him.

With a crisp "clang," the two knives clashed, producing a resounding, clear, and melodious sound.

The sharp, crisp sound spread out like an invisible wave.

It actually sliced through those small hills as if they had been cut open by a giant blade, leaving a smooth, mirror-like cut.

Kenpachi Zaraki was not surprised to see that Tokoyo Misao had blocked the attack so easily.

He raised his knife high again and swung it down.

"Clang!"

Tokoyo Misao continued to parry, his gaze level with Kenpachi Zaraki in front of him, his brows slightly furrowed.

Because at this moment, the opponent's attack was not at full strength, but rather held back three-tenths of its power.

However, this is the true way of the sword: when wielding the sword, one must leave room for unpredictable moves.

In Tokoyo Misao's view, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto had taught all his skills to Kenpachi Zaraki, who had studied them diligently, but this was not a good thing.

Indeed, he once suggested that Kenpachi Zaraki should learn kendo to make fighting more interesting.

But times have changed.

Since becoming human again and seeking a breakthrough in his soul, he has gained a deeper understanding of the use of power.

He then said softly, "Swordsmanship should not be your shackles, Kenpachi Zaraki."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his right foot and kicked forward violently.
