Light in the Dark Clouds
Returning to the battlefield where Tsuna fought the Monk, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto was sealed by Senjumaru's Bankai, and the scene returned to a one-on-one situation between Tsuna and Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto.
Faced with Tsuna's attack, the Monk clapped his hands together and Hadō a powerful hurricane, the Third Path of Iron Wind Slash, which blocked Tsuna's advance. At this moment, the Monk had turned Ichimonji.
As Tsuna, struggling against the hurricane, looked up, he saw a massive splash of ink pouring down on him. By then, it was too late to transform into lightning.
This is the Monk's combo technique: using the Hadō Hado to suppress Tsuna's movements, and then using ink to smear Tsuna's life. Once Tsuna Monk happy just thinking about it.
At this critical moment, a green figure appeared on Tsuna's body, shielding him from the terrifying ink.
It's Ghost!
No, who is this?
When Ghost was splattered with ink and turned into a little black man, Tsuna realized that he seemed to have forgotten the name of the person who protected him. The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he just couldn't say them.
Furthermore, because Ghost is an indispensable part of the Lightning Attribute Bankai, when his name was erased, Tsuna could clearly feel the power Beyond Bankai rapidly disappearing, with a third of his power suddenly vanishing.
"Damn Hyosube Ichibei!" Feeling that he had suddenly lost the name of a fighting comrade, Tsuna cursed at the Monk.
The Monk's eyes had turned completely white, and his sinister expression spoke coldly, "Didn't I forbid you from calling my name?"
Tsuna tried to speak in retort, but found that he couldn't make a sound. He could only call out the Monk's name, Monk immediately deprived Tsuna of the right to speak.
The Monk laughed, and the sinister smile made his face even more terrifying. He could clearly feel Tsuna's spiritual pressure weakening. Ōetsu Nimaiya had never even fought an enemy like this before; he had wasted these past few years.
The Monk lifted his foot and walked towards Tsuna, intending to take this candidate for the Soul King into his possession.
Tsuna made a grasping motion with both hands and suddenly pushed forward. All the Zanpakuto encased in Iron Sand nearby vibrated simultaneously, took flight, and thrust towards the Monk.
The Monk snorted coldly. How could such a chaotic attack possibly harm his body? He transformed into a nimble fat man, weaving through the rain of Ichimonji. He easily deflected Tsuna's desperate attack.
A desperate attack—at least that's how the Monk saw it—what ability did Sawada Tsunayoshi, already at his last gasp, have to resist?
The Monk didn't notice that all of these Zanpakuto flew out in one direction—the location of Shunsui Kyōraku, the current Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13.
The blades were all planted around Kyōraku, Kyōraku immediately understood Tsuna's intention: to return all the Zanpakuto to him.
What should Tsuna do? In a battle of this magnitude, instead of focusing on the Monk, he dares to make such petty moves. Isn't this a critical moment?
Kyōraku didn't know what Tsuna was thinking, but he could clearly sense that Tsuna's spiritual pressure had weakened considerably.
The Monk also couldn't understand the meaning behind Tsuna's futile efforts, but it didn't matter; it was time to accept it.
The monk raised the Senri Touten Palm high, Monk to swat Tsuna to death like a fly!
Snap!
The attack of the Senri Touten Palm stirred up dust, leaving a huge palm print on the ground. There was no thunder, no resistance, and the lightning in the sky vanished without a trace.
Everything seemed to be over. Tsuna didn't use his Lightning Attribute to resist. The dark clouds were heavy, and no lightning snakes passed by, making the atmosphere even more oppressive.
"It's over, Yoruichi Shihōin! If you don't leave now, I'll take you with me!" the Monk Yoruichi at Yoruichi, who was locked in combat with Kirinj high in the sky.
The Monk didn't need to consult with Yoruichi, but he made an exception for the sake of the Shihōin surname. As for the other two guys trapped by Senjumaru, he would deal with them after he had dealt with the two Soul King candidates.
"Give up, Shihōin, the battle is over." Kirinj said, carrying his Zanpakuto. He no longer wanted to fight Yoruichi. Both of them were speedsters, and their attacks always missed their mark; that slippery feeling was very uncomfortable.
"It's really dark today," Yoruichi said, stopping what she was doing and looking at the dark clouds overhead.
"Stop sighing. Monk aren't easy to deal with. Be careful, or you might get taken care of too," Kirinj kindly warned. "At that point, even the Four Great Noble Clans won't be able to protect you."
"It doesn't matter. I left the Four Great Noble Clans a long time ago. Now I'm just a nobody."
Yoruichi didn't take Kirinj's words seriously at all. Yoruichi had already arranged for her younger brother to succeed her as head of the family, and she herself had no worries about going out to roam the world with Urahara Kisuke.
"Then you should get lost even more. The affairs of the Zero Squad are none of your business," Kirinj said, waving his hand.
Even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of light, isn't there?
Without the Lightning Attribute, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and a beam of light shone down from the cracked clouds. The light was not far from Yoruichi and Kirinj, and where the light fell was the palm print of the Senri Touten Palm -Piercing Palm.
"Stop making up nonsense, or I'll..." Kirinj was about to get serious and scare Yoruichi when a powerful spiritual pressure suddenly caught his attention.
Light, a dazzling ray of light, burst forth from the center of the palm print, instantly becoming the sole focal point in the somewhat dim environment.
Even the Monk who was heading towards Ichigo's location stopped and looked back at the trail he had left behind. "Could it be?"
The light at the center of the palm print slowly condensed into a human shape. As the human body appeared, the light gradually faded. It was Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had just been struck by the Monk's palm.
He was shirtless, wearing silver-white boxing gloves on his hands, and golden metal armor on his lower body, with two square devices on his shoulder blades.
At first glance, it seems that Tsuna used the Sun Attribute Bankai, but unlike the Sun Attribute Bankai, what is most eye-catching is the lifelike lizard pattern on his left chest. Just by staring at it, you can feel the lizard staring at you fiercely.
Just as everyone was waiting for Tsuna to explain what kind of power it was, Tsuna put two fingers together and stabbed them into his own throat.
As he drew his sword, a wisp of yellow light enveloped his throat. Tsuna opened his mouth and fed the patient a couple of times, getting used to his new voice.
What Tsuna did was simple: since the Monk had ruined his voice, he simply destroyed his own voice physically and then used the strong Activation ability of his Sun Attribute to regenerate his vocal cords.
After coughing twice, Tsuna adjusted to his new voice and began, "Beyond Bankai, Nirvana Activation, Sun..."
Nirvana, after Beyond Bankai fusion, the Activation ability of the Sun Attribute has reached a level that can bring people back from the brink of death. Tsuna's action just now was to allow his voice to be reborn from the ashes.
"One or two at a time, what's wrong with this world?"
The Monk was not only bored but also a little angry. For someone who had the ability to control the concept of names, using his own name to disable an enemy's voice was a pretty good ability. But every day, he kept encountering people who could break through his cool demeanor.
Whether it's Aizen or Sawada Tsunayoshi, neither of them is easy to deal with. The Monk is like a helpless parent, annoyed by these troublesome juniors in his household.
Seal them all! Seal them all up!
With a Monk, preemptive strike, the monk appeared before Tsuna in an instant. The Ichimonji in his hand was both a blade and a brush, making it impossible to discern its true nature.
A blade can leave wounds on the opponent, and a brush can also erase the enemy's life. Either form is advantageous to the Monk, and the Monk's opponent is much more difficult to deal with.
For Tsuna, his goal was clear: to dodge the brush attack and counterattack the Monk when the Ichimonji blade.
The Monk's Zanjutsu was extremely exquisite, making it impossible to Monk without taking any hits. Compared to being injured by the blade, Tsuna was more concerned about having ink splattered on him.
With the boost from his Activation, Tsuna's speed reached its peak, and his dynamic vision was also astonishing. He constantly dodged the Monk's attacks.
Concentrating intently, Tsuna's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He caught the Monk's Ichimonji, and the next move was a blade!
Tsuna's body was suddenly enveloped in a white light, the color of sunlight—he was Super Activation- activated!
Tsuna suddenly accelerated, and as Ichimonji pierced his shoulder, he threw a straight punch at the Monk.
Thud! Blood splattered all over Tsuna Monk sent flying far away by Tsuna's punch. It seemed like a fight where one was injured for the other, but Tsuna was using the Sun Attribute, so he could heal himself. In short, the Monk lost out.
Whoosh! A yellow flame suddenly ignited behind Tsuna's head. In the light of the flame, a golden Sun Wheel vaguely appeared in front of everyone. It was the energy meter evolved from the Sun Armlet, still maintaining its basic function.
Flames burned on the golden Sun Wheel, and it seemed to grant Tsuna a touch of divinity.
The Monk, his body bulging with veins, stood up from the ground. Tsuna's punch was no weak blow; it forced him to use the power of the King's Key to defend himself.
It's very strong and tough; you can't fight it head-on.
Seeing that Tsuna was unharmed, the idea of a flanking maneuver came to the Monk's mind. He drew various kinds of Kido with his hands and threw them at Tsuna in one go.
It's unexpected that the Monk would have this day, needing to use Kido as cover for his attack. But in terms of playing Kido, the Monk is clearly no match for Aizen, who has integrated Kido into himself Beyond Bankai Aizen.
Unlike Aizen's Kido, which possessed the dreamlike attributes of the Hogyoku, Tsuna didn't take it seriously at all. His body suddenly created many afterimages, and with the boost of his Super Activation, Tsuna was so fast that even the eyes couldn't catch his position, easily passing through a group of Kido.
At this rate, Tsuna should be able to defeat the Monk by simply dodging and throwing punches. However, in the short time that he was dodging the Kido, the Monk had already started performing a ritual dance.
Between heaven Monk, all the black matter surged toward the monk. Tsuna had watched the video, immediately became serious; this was a move that even Aizen had suffered from.
Invincible Great Killing Mausoleum!
(PS: I won't post a picture of the Sun Attribute's Beyond Bankai. It's similar to Sei's Bankai, except there's a lizard pattern on the chest, rectangular devices on the shoulder blades, and the Sun Armlet transforms into a Sun Wheel disc resembling a deity's symbol floating behind the head.)
