The Ultimate Enjoyment

Knock, knock.

The sound of my heartbeat pounded in my ears.

The accelerated flow of blood converted into heat, making him feel extremely hot all over.

This feeling is completely different from when I first encountered that Blade Hollow in the World of the Living.

At that point, I knew there might be a life-threatening situation; my body was sending out warning signals.

But now, Tokoyo Misao's body was ignited by Kenpachi Zaraki's the Heat fighting spirit.

He felt like he was about to burst into flames.

Ah, this feeling.

The night before a school field trip when I was a child.

In the past, when you opened a game you liked, there was a loading screen.

When you get the latest volume of your favorite comic, peel off the protective film.

Tokoyo Misao lowered his head slightly, a grin spreading across his face.

He raised his left hand and extended his index finger.

At that moment, he didn't realize that a bright smile had appeared on his face.

"Just this once."

As soon as he finished speaking, the hundreds of Reishi Orbs in his sleeve shattered instantly, turning into Reishi that surged into his body.

A surge of crimson and black Reiatsu erupted from his body, shooting straight into the sky, rivaling Kenpachi Zaraki's golden torrent.

Fifth-Class Spiritual Pressure, Fourth-Class Spiritual Pressure, peak Third-Class Spiritual Pressure!

In the blink of an eye, Tokoyo Misao's Rei'i Grade reached the same level as Kenpachi Zaraki's current level.

Absolutely Captain-level.

Peak of the Third-Class Spiritual Pressure!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Facing the unleashed power of Tokoyo Misao, Kenpachi Zaraki spread his arms and burst into wild laughter.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had felt his body pulsate.

He must seize this opportunity and enjoy it to the fullest!

He subconsciously channeled the power within his body once more, and the golden torrent expanded once more.

Second-Class Spiritual Pressure!

Kenpachi Zaraki actually raised his level by a whole rank, and showed no sign of stopping.

It wasn't until it approached the peak of the Second-Class Spiritual Pressure that the golden torrent calmed down and became stable again.

Upon witnessing this scene, Tokoyo Misao did not show surprise or fear. Instead, he softly uttered a sentence:

"You're really greedy."

But to onlookers, all they saw was his radiant smile, which he couldn't hide, and his tone was full of elation.

Rub--!

Tokoyo Misao drew his Zanpakuto and chanted:

"Remove the wedge of heaven's will--"

The blind and foolish are the keys to unlocking the door to truth.

World-Crossing Principle."

The Zanpakuto transformed into a 1.65-meter-long crowbar.

At the same time, the red and black Reiatsu emanating from his body rose another notch.

Second-Class Spiritual Pressure!

The Reiatsu they're currently displaying is evenly matched!

Even among the captains of the Gotei 13, he is among the top!

"Oh my, that's really scary." Shunsui Kyōraku turned to Captain-Commander Yamamoto and asked, "Old man, when did you find out?"

"H-How is this possible?" Soi Fon, the Second Division Captain, was staring wide-eyed in shock.

It should be noted that her own Rei'i Grade has not even reached the second rank, and she is still lacking even the peak of the Third Class rank.

But Tokoyo Misao actually unleashed his power at this level.

She gritted her teeth and said, "This guy is hiding so well; he's definitely going to be a threat to Soul Society."

Captain Unohana then retorted:

"When Tokoyo Misao unleashed his power just now, there was a large amount of Reishi in his sleeve, which he absorbed in an instant."

He must have used external means, along with releasing his Zanpakuto, to reach the second level.

That's really surprising.

Captain-Commander Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto opened his eyes completely at this moment.

His eyes flickered with surprise.

Originally, he only intended to have Kenpachi Zaraki teach Tokoyo Misao.

Who told that kid to encourage Kenpachi Zaraki to come looking for him?

But now the situation is completely different.

He wanted to see a fight between Kenpachi Zaraki, whom he had taught swordsmanship, and Tokoyo Misao.

"Yay! Yay! Have fun, Ken-chan Misa-chan!" Yachiru Kusajishi shouted loudly from the side, jumping up and down.

The eruption of these two Reiatsu instantly swept across the entire Seireitei.

The captains, who had just reached the door and were about to part ways, all turned their heads toward the First Division training ground, looking at the two Reiatsu tides in the sky.

"That golden one should be Kenpachi Zaraki, but who is the one in red and black?" Captain Sajin Komamura of the Captain of the Seventh Division asked in confusion.

"Didn't the Captain-Commander just say that Tokoyo Misao go and show his strength?" Mayuri Kurotsuchi shouted, pursing his lips.

"Impossible!" Kaname Tōsen immediately retorted, his expression somewhat agitated.

If this red and black power truly belongs to Tokoyo Misao.

That proves that in the World of the Living, the other party had the ability to completely kill him.

In his view, the high- Tokoyo Misao should have been someone he could easily crush and kill. How could he have suddenly become so strong?

"Captain Tōsen, nothing is impossible. This power is emanating from Tokoyo Misao."

Captain Aizen spoke gently to Kaname Tōsen, his head slightly lowered, obscuring his face.

Upon hearing Aizen's words, Kaname Tōsen realized that he had lost his composure.

He immediately suppressed his shock, raised his head again, and faced the direction of the two Reiatsu, carefully sensing them.

A moment later, he had to admit it.

That red and black power was indeed completely consistent with the power that Tokoyo Misao displayed in the World of the Living world.

In other words, that guy had been hiding all along.

If I were in the World of the Living and unleashed all my power to try and kill it, I might very well be killed by Tokoyo Misao using this hidden power.

Those despicable nobles, so treacherous!

"What a terrifying young man. Even Captain Isshin Shiba's strength might not be stronger than his," Gin Ichimaru suddenly remarked.

"Captain Ichimaru, what do you mean by that?" Byakuya Kuchiki, as the captain of the search team, turned to look at him.

Gin Ichimaru spread his hands and continued in that somewhat slick tone:

"I'm telling the truth, aren't I? The power that Tokoyo Misao is showing right now is stronger than many captains."

Byakuya Kuchiki frowned; he certainly understood what Gin Ichimaru meant.

"Captain Ichimaru, are you saying that Tokoyo Misao Captain Shiba in the World of the Living?"

Sajin Komamura's voice, hidden behind his mask, was deep and somewhat muffled.

His words essentially revealed the suspicions that the other team leaders were harboring.

"Who knows?" Gin Ichimaru shrugged, put his hands back into his sleeves, and turned to leave.

Captain Aizen then spoke with certainty, looking at Gin Ichimaru's retreating figure:

"I believe that Tokoyo Misao wouldn't be the kind of person to lay a hand on his own captain. Just as he said, he was ambushed first, and then he encountered Kisuke Urahara."

This is what's happening in the World of the Living.

Don't overthink it.

Gin Ichimaru waved his hand dismissively.

The captains then dispersed and returned to their respective squads.

Chapter 83 Ultimate Enjoyment (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Ha ha!"

Laughter burst from Kenpachi Zaraki's chest, through his throat, and involuntarily escaped from his mouth.

The flow of blood and the stinging sensation on his skin were all telling him that Tokoyo Misao, who was standing opposite him, was very strong.

He simply couldn't control the surge of emotion welling up inside him, and his laughter grew louder and louder.

Tokoyo Misao's ears kept ringing with Kenpachi Zaraki's laughter.

Before I knew it, his radiant smile began to ring out.

Haha, hahaha, hahaha!

He also let out a loud and excited shout.

Their laughter and Reiatsu collided and spread in the air.

The excitement contained within this can be clearly felt throughout the entire Seireitei and even the entire Soul Society.

Their voices and breathing suddenly stopped simultaneously, as if someone had pressed the pause button, abruptly and jarringly.

The next moment, two booming sounds rang out from the training ground.

Boom!

A crowbar wrapped in red and black clashed with a serrated longsword wrapped in gold in the center of the training field.

The swirling air currents spread in all directions, striking the walls with a sound like a sledgehammer striking a prairie.

Tokoyo Misao and Kenpachi Zaraki simultaneously leaned forward, trying to overpower each other.

Sparks flew continuously between the crowbar and the serrated longsword, and the golden and red-black Reiatsu exploded like water being poured into boiling oil.

Bang! Bang!

His dark red pupils and golden eyes converged through his violent Reiatsu.

The next moment, the two retreated simultaneously, then charged at each other again, gathering their strength once more.

The crowbar thrust straight in, while the serrated long knife slashed down fiercely.

Just as the blade touched the crowbar, the crowbar's support shifted slightly, and the long blade slid down along the angle of that shift.

Below is the hand of Tokoyo Misao holding the ram's horn-shaped crowbar, his long sword aimed at those fingers.

At that moment, he released his grip, avoiding the longsword's strike.

The long knife struck the ram's horns, pulling the crowbar downwards.

At the same time, Tokoyo Misao clenched his right hand again, gripping the other end of the crowbar.

He suddenly exerted force and lifted his arm upwards. This force was transmitted from the serrated blade of his longsword to Kenpachi Zaraki's right arm, causing him to involuntarily raise his hand, leaving his defenses wide open.

With the crowbar held at its tip, Tokoyo Misao thrust it directly into Kenpachi Zaraki's chest.
