Blade Dance
Ōetsu Nimaiya found himself in a passive, defensive position. Fortunately, the body covered by the Daiguren Hyōrinmaru had some defensive capabilities; otherwise, he would have been knocked down amidst the thunderous roar.
In the Phoenix Hall, several Zanpakuto of the royal guards watched helplessly as Ōetsu Nimaiya was Zanpakuto. Apart from them, there were no other Zanpakuto here who would care about Ōetsu Nimaiya.
"We need to go help."
"No, that's a battle we can't get involved in."
"But what do you suggest we do? If that idiot Ōetsu Nimaiya gets killed, we won't be any better off."
"This is Ōetsu Nimaiya's order..."
Because the Zanpakuto of the Royal Guard were all separated from a single sword of Ōetsu Nimaiya, their individual strength was no match for the other Zanpakuto. In order to prevent them from being smashed by Tsuna, Ōetsu Nimaiya ordered the Royal Guard members not to participate in the battle.
"Who cares about this or that! My period is going to be a disaster!"
Suijima Mera, the most hot- Zanpakuto of them all, transformed into a Zanpakuto and flew towards Ōetsu Nimaiya. Sparks flew from the blade, creating a wildfire that engulfed Ōetsu Nimaiya.
With his favorable situation abruptly interrupted, Tsuna's target naturally fell on Suijima Mera. In a flash, Tsuna, clad in heavy armor, appeared behind Suijima Mera.
He raised his horned greatsword high, crackling with terrifying lightning, and delivered a devastating blow to Suijima Mera.
With a deafening roar, as the blade swung, a bolt of lightning, a greenish-white hue, engulfed Suijima Mera. A moment later, only a deep crater remained in front of Tsuna, containing a shattered piece of flint.
"Mera!!!"
Seeing the horrific state of Suijima Mera, the other members of the guard couldn't help but gasp. They instinctively wanted to move and rush towards Tsuna, determined to avenge Suijima Mera!
Tsuna heard the exclamations of Ōetsu Nimaiya's personal guards, but his gaze did not fall on the guards; instead, it was fixed on the dilapidated Phoenix Hall.
The already somewhat dilapidated Phoenix Hall began to deteriorate, with holes everywhere on the eaves and doors, looking like it was about to collapse.
Tsuna immediately understood. The Phoenix Hall and Ōetsu Nimaiya's personal guard were linked. He had just taken down one of Suijima Mera, Phoenix Hall was already showing signs of weakening. If he took down two more, wouldn't Ōetsu Nimaiya's Bankai collapse on its own?
Hidden by his helmet, the royal guards couldn't see Tsuna's smile. Let him take revenge; he might as well use this opportunity to break two more of Ōetsu Nimaiya's swords. Tsuna walked towards the charging royal guards.
"Stop!"
Even faster than Tsuna was Ōetsu Nimaiya's reaction; having escaped the flames, he immediately tossed aside his two Ice Style Zanpakuto.
Although Suijima Mera disobeyed his orders, Suijima Mera's flames did indeed save Ōetsu Nimaiya.
It would be unwise for the other four swords to rush in now. If something happens to them, Phoenix Hall will collapse on its own. At that point, how will Ōetsu Nimaiya Tsuna?
So, even while still engulfed in flames, Ōetsu Nimaiya immediately stopped the remaining people, saying, "You all stay put and protect the Phoenix Hall. I'll deal with this guy!"
Seeing the Royal Guard members retreat back into the Phoenix Palace area, Tsuna became even more certain that they were inextricably linked to Ōetsu Nimaiya's Bankai. His previously leisurely pace suddenly quickened, and he rushed towards the Phoenix Hall.
Ōetsu Nimaiya was standing right behind him. Tsuna launched an attack on Phoenix Store and had a great chance of defeating Ōetsu Nimaiya's Bankai.
With the lightning-enhanced Flash Step, Tsuna's speed was extremely fast. In the next moment, he had already rushed into the range of Zanpakuto surrounding Phoenix Store. If he took another step, Tsuna could launch a direct attack on Phoenix Store.
Suddenly, an inexplicable force pulled at Tsuna's feet, making it difficult for him to even lift his foot. He felt that this force was somewhat familiar; was it gravity that was holding him down?
Tsuna looked down at his feet and noticed that a large iron ball had somehow appeared on his feet, emanating the weight that was pressing down on him.
Tsuna narrowed his eyes. As the instructor of all the Soul Bleach in Seireitei, he seemed to recognize whose power this was.
Before Tsuna could speak, all the Zanpakuto around him rose up, and various abilities emerged from Zanpakuto. The spiritual pressure on the Zanpakuto grew stronger and stronger, soon surpassing the level of Bankai.
"Ōetsu Nimaiya! You're squandering the Seireitei's resources!" Tsuna, having figured out what was going on, yelled at Ōetsu Nimaiya without turning around.
Tsuna discovered whose power the iron ball at his feet was; the Zanpakuto Wabisuke's master was Yoshika Izuru.
Tsuna knows Kira fairly well and has discussed Kira's Bankai development direction with him, but he is well aware that Kira is still a bit far from achieving Bankai.
Now, Ōetsu Nimaiya is directly using Wabisuke's Bankai to strengthen his body's gravity and restrict his movements. This is tantamount to forcing growth, and one wrong move could cause irreversible damage to the Zanpakuto.
Not to mention those Zanpakuto flying around; from them, Tsuna could sense spiritual pressure at the level of Bankai. If nothing unexpected happened, Ōetsu Nimaiya would forcefully use Bankai again.
Among the Gotei 13, those Bleach who can correctly control their Shikai power have the strength to compete for a place. In other words, most Bleach have not even mastered Shikai. Now, Ōetsu Nimaiya is forcibly activating the Bankai power in their Zanpakuto.
This isn't just a matter of forcibly driving it; it's practically destroying the knife!
If a blade that has never experienced Bankai tries to force the power of Bankai, it is highly likely that it will be overwhelmed and exploded by the spiritual pressure of Bankai!
A series of fine cracking sounds rang out. Just as Tsuna had guessed, some of the countless Zanpakuto had already begun to crack. If this continued, Ōetsu Nimaiya would probably destroy these swords without even needing to use Bankai!
"My Zanpakuto is my property, of course it obeys my commands! Who do you think you are!" Ōetsu Nimaiya pointed at Tsuna, this Zanpakuto anomaly, and cursed him angrily, then shouted, "All Zanpakuto, listen to my command! Swords flailing wildly!"
The Zanpakuto above Tsuna's head spun and crisscrossed, forming a Zanpakuto that surrounded him. Various mysterious abilities burst forth from the storm of swords towards Tsuna Tsuna.
A pink sea of cherry blossoms, a crimson dragon carrying a blade, silent crickets, thick black ropes, explosive wind blades, golden dancers...
Various Bankai that Tsuna was familiar with appeared before his eyes, but in addition to these powers, there were also many powers that Tsuna had never seen before, such as the Wabisuke iron ball under his feet.
Ōetsu Nimaiya is going to use her Bankai to completely overwhelm Tsuna, regardless of the consequences!
"Ōetsu Nimaiya, as the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, I lodge a protest against you. You have completely disregarded the safety of Soul Society and forcibly activated your Zanpakuto for your own selfish reasons. I will report your crimes to Soul King!"
At this moment, Kyōraku and the others realized that Wang Yue's use of Ōetsu Nimaiya completely disregarded the other Bleach. The vast majority of ordinary Bleach are the backbone of the Soul Society, and Kyōraku couldn't believe how they would carry out dangerous missions if they lost their Zanpakuto.
"Ha, don't make me laugh, Captain-Commander." Ōetsu Nimaiya chuckled disdainfully. "You don't really think that the peace of the Three Worlds is maintained by your Gotei 13, do you?"
Ōetsu Nimaiya turned around, stared at Kyōraku, and said bluntly, "Let me tell you, everything you've done is just meaningless self-pity. As long as the Soul King exists in the Three Worlds, there will be no harm."
"From ancient times to the present, it is our Zero Squad that has kept the world running!"
"As for your ridiculous wars with the Hollows, they are utterly insignificant in the eyes of the Zero Squad. As long as the Soul King exists, the Three Worlds will exist."
"As for reporting to the Soul King? Are you trying to make me laugh? Look, the person is right there, go report it."
Ōetsu Nimaiya casually pointed in the direction of the Monk. Although she didn't say anything, she already regarded the Monk as Soul King who could rule the Three Worlds.
Didn't you see that the acting Soul King didn't even say anything? How dare a mere Captain-Commander threaten the Zero Squad? If Ōetsu Nimaiya weren't currently busy, he would definitely make this newly appointed guy experience the power of the Zero Squad.
The Gotei 13 can only hold the Zero Squad in awe!
Kyōraku looked as if he had swallowed a fly. Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto had put him on the stage so that he could use his smooth personality to maintain good relations between the Gotei 13 and various other sectors.
But Kyōraku simply couldn't stand it. He couldn't tolerate Ōetsu Nimaiya using the future of Soul Society to deal with the future of Soul Society. Whether Tsuna was more familiar with or won among those Zanpakuto was unimportant to Kyōraku. What mattered to him was the absence of this reckless Ōetsu Nimaiya!
Kyōraku trembled with rage, but there was nothing he could do. Ōetsu Nimaiya's spiritual pressure was beyond his control, and without his Zanpakuto, he didn't even have a chance to exchange his life with Ōetsu Nimaiya.
Similar sentiments to Kyōraku's spread rapidly throughout the Gotei 13. Every captain who witnessed what was happening felt an urgent desire for greater power.
Bankai is not enough; only by Beyond Bankai can one truly take control of their own destiny.
"Don't panic, everyone. I've taken on the duties of an instructor in Seireitei. These Zanpakuto are just those good-for-nothing students. As an instructor, how could I possibly harm such rebellious disciples?"
A green wave flashed, and through the conduction of the lightning, everyone heard Tsuna's voice.
After a brief moment of surprise, the captains' faces were filled with joy. Yes, they believed in Sawada Tsunayoshi. Since he appeared in Soul Society, Soul Society had undergone many changes. The Bleach were becoming stronger and stronger. He had lived up to the responsibilities entrusted to him by Seireitei.
Believe it, because belief needs no reason!
Ōetsu Nimaiya walked step by step to the front of the Phoenix Store. He crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame, eager to see how Sawada Tsunayoshi would survive the storm of Bankai amidst the chaotic Bankai.
Not damaging your Zanpakuto? Is that a matter of whether you want to damage it or not?
A wicked smile crept across Ōetsu Nimaiya's lips. His spiritual pressure surged once more, and the spiritual pressure poured into his Zanpakuto increased again. He wanted to see whether these Zanpakuto would self-destruct first, or whether Sawada Tsunayoshi would die under their blades first!
