"No matter what, I am guilty!"
Kuchiki Kyoka spoke up, interrupting Kenma's unfinished words.
"I failed, this is my biggest sin!"
"In this world, victory or defeat is determined by success or failure. The winner takes all, and the loser bears all the sins. This is natural."
"If I win, then Yamamoto Shigekuni and his father will be the criminals Binding Vow is sitting on this chair today, waiting for trial. But the reality is that I was defeated, defeated by Yamamoto Shigekuni and his father!"
"Then everything I have is indiscernible sin!"
Although he said this, there was a hint of reluctance in his tone.
Kenma was silent, with a hint of complexity between his brows.
"To this day, senior still calls Captain Kuchiki his father?"
"Anyway, he is kind to me after all."
As Kuchiki Kyoka spoke, he looked at Kenma with a look of calmness.
"It's like you took away my Zanpakuto, preventing me from using Bankai, and ended up like this."
"Having said that, after thinking about it in the seal for the past few days, I have become much clearer. Even if I use Bankai, I will probably lose to Yamamoto Shigekuni sooner or later."
"When I think about it this way, I feel less resentful toward you."
There is not so much resentment anymore, which means there is still some hatred in my heart.
Kenma understood Kuchiki Kyoka's feelings towards him, but he still wanted to ask him again in person.
"It's such a pity. I originally wanted to save senior."
"With my current ability, I can release my senior without anyone noticing, as long as he agrees to serve me."
"But let's see what senior means now--"
"Ha--I knew you wouldn't come here just to see me." Kuchiki Kyoka sneered.
Regarding Kenma's request, during the conversation between the two just now, he had vaguely speculated that this would be what happened next.
Otherwise, there would be no confusion over whether he is guilty or not.
"Let me be your subordinate?"
"Forget it, I won't be able to afford to lose!"
The defeat made the arrogant Kuchiki Kyoka feel that he had lost all the glory in his life.
Even if the opponent is that Yamamoto Shigekuni, if you lose, you will lose. There is no such thing as glory in defeat!
He is already frustrated in his heart, so let him abandon his dignity and act as someone else's dog and horse?
He can't do this kind of thing no matter what!
He knew that Kenma said this with good intentions, but he just couldn't accept it.
I will never succumb to others!
Rather than endure such humiliation, it would be better to die and be done with it.
Hearing Kuchiki Kyoka's blunt refusal, Kenma sighed in his heart. He had expected this to happen.
Although I felt sorry for Kuchiki Kyoka's talent, seeing his appearance, I stopped trying to persuade him.
Instead, he asked about the doubts he had been having these days.
"Senior, I clearly took away Muramasa from senior and sealed Muramasa. How did senior use the ability of Zanpakuto?"
"I hope seniors can explain to me, as a junior, the doubts in my mind."
"----" Kuchiki Kyoka was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "For the sake of my lovely junior coming to visit, it's okay to talk about it as a benefit to my senior."
"Thank you, senior." Kenma was all ears.
The voice of Kuchiki Kyoka sounded in the silent room.
"Actually, it's very simple. Zanpakuto is a phenomenon in which Shinigami puts his own essence into Asauchi, Awakening's brand new soul, and uses Asauchi to materialize it in reality."
"Whether it is Shikai or Bankai, no matter how Zanpakuto's posture and abilities change, it is fundamentally derived from Shinigami itself, and is an existence that is concentric with Shinigami."
"In the final analysis, it is the power of Shinigami itself, but it is more convenient to appear in the form of Zanpakuto, and it is also more convenient for a large number of Shinigami to be mastered smoothly."
"In this case, after cultivating to a certain level, Shinigami will be able to display his own abilities without the help of Zanpakuto."
"My Muramasa is very special, which makes my cultivation and exploration easier."
Seeing the thoughtful look on Kenma's face, Kuchiki Kyoka's voice paused and continued, "With my current state, I can only use Shikai after leaving Zanpakuto. There is still some distance before I can use Bankai."
"According to my speculation, when cultivation reaches a more advanced level, the two split souls of Shinigami and Zanpakuto will merge again. By then, the accomplished person will have entered a higher dimension."
Kenma suddenly raised his head, with an incredible expression on his face.
Kuchiki Kyoka couldn't help but chuckle when he saw his appearance.
"However, such a realm is quite far away, and it is just my personal speculation. The authenticity cannot be verified."
"Throughout the entire history of Soul Society, no one has completed this step since the birth of Zanpakuto. Maybe it's just my whim."
Kenma nodded gently and suppressed the surprise in his heart.
Although Kuchiki Kyoka himself was not so sure about Kuchiki Kyoka's guess, Kenma believed it in his heart.
This kind of fusion setting is also a common plot in juvenile comics.
Just like the god and Piccolo in Dragon Ball, he was just an ordinary Namekian at the beginning. He was once divided into two people. After merging again, Piccolo's combat power surged, surged, and surged, and he could directly fight Cell!
What's more, he has seen such an example with his own eyes.
In the original work, during the decisive battle between Ichigo and Aizen, both of them completed the fusion evolution of Shinigami and Zanpakuto.
During the Thousand-Year Blood War period, Aizen was like this. Without Zanpakuto, he could still exert the ability of Illusion.
There are such cases before, how can Kenma not believe it?
"Senior is so calm, he actually revealed such a high-level secret."
"I'm really looking forward to your future."
Kuchiki Kyoka looked at Kenma in front of him, and he could see early on that his junior was not an economical person and would cause big trouble sooner or later.
Now that I am telling you all my insights over the years, I naturally want to see what the other party can achieve.
It can also be regarded as the last bit of fun left in his miserable life that will soon come to an end.
Kenma heard the unfinished meaning of Kuchiki Kyoka's words.
"I believe you won't disappoint your seniors."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kenma turned around and planned to leave.
Just as he took a step, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Kuchiki Kyoka.
"Senior, I have one last doubt. I wonder if I can tell you."
"Tell me and listen."
"Senior challenged the captains one by one in reverse order, presumably to show his strength."
"Not bad."
Kuchiki Kyoka nodded.
"Before, I wanted to establish a new order. First, I need to let the many Shinigami and Noble of Seireitei feel my power. After understanding the difference in strength, they must obey me."
"So I first chose Kenpachi, which is known as the strongest Eleventh Division."
