To be honest, Yuko's conscience did hurt a little for having pushed Sister Hana to this point.
After all, this scene really was terrifying.
A Domain? Was it the rule-based type?
Yuko surveyed her surroundings from the corner of her eye. Without her deliberately suppressing it, the sea had already been completely permeated by the blood domain.
No, this didn't really fit Sister Hana's character.
A Zanpakuto's abilities reflected its owner's will to a certain extent. It would never possess abilities that ran contrary to its owner's state of mind.
Besides, Sister Hana's Zanpakuto's Shikai was the healing type. A Zanpakuto's Bankai could indeed undergo certain changes from its Shikai, but those changes generally would not be too extreme.
Like having two completely opposing ability sets.
For example, a fire-type Zanpakuto's Bankai could never become an ice-type one.
A healing-type Zanpakuto could never turn into something with astonishing destructive power.
As Yuko pondered this, Retsu Unohana gave her wrist a slight flick. Her Zanpakuto, transformed into a blood whip, lashed at the sea. A ripple splashed up and stretched straight across the crimson sea toward Yuko, suddenly shooting up before her and grazing her cheek, leaving a bloody mark on her fair skin.
Yuko tilted her head, her crimson eyes locking onto the blade in Retsu Unohana's right hand.
A transformation type?
The blade had extended like liquid blood.
Retsu Unohana narrowed her eyes. "Aren't you going to attack?"
Yuko laughed helplessly. "No, it's just that this is a bit too grand. I didn't react in time."
Hm?
Yuko suddenly froze and instinctively touched the skin that had long since healed.
Was it an illusion?
Something felt off.
"Is that so? Then prepare yourself." Retsu Unohana ran her left hand across the blood-red blade, stirring up a streak of crimson.
