Conversation 2

"What a remarkable method."

Kisuke Urahara let out a long breath after hearing Isshin Shiba's explanation.

Just now, Isshin Shiba had imparted to Kisuke Urahara all the knowledge he had gleaned from Nara Dan's Swordsmanship Class.

And after listening, Kisuke Urahara couldn't help but sincerely admire Nara Dan's talent and breadth of mind.

"Barring any accidents, Captain Nara will become an existence as great as Head Captain Yamamoto a thousand years from now."

Moreover, Nara Dan now also had the Hōgyoku in his hands.

His threat rivaled or even surpassed Aizen's.

And what made Kisuke Urahara feel even more threatened

was the veil of mist shrouding Nara Dan.

Compared to Aizen,
