Killed For 100 Years in Hueco Mundo, Aizen Invited Me To Soul Society!

The golden reiatsu spread out all around, and the burly body of Zaraki stood amidst all the reiatsu storm, and on his shoulders, a huge Zanpakuto was resting.

Calling it a sword would be a little off, it was almost like a huge butcher knife, a blade that was even bigger than Zangetsu.

Even though Zaraki's body was extremely burly and tall, compared to this "sword" of his, he still looked a little thin.

Nozarashi took on the form of a great axe/war cleaver hybrid with a long, cloth-wrapped handle. The top of the blade had a brass cover with a green tassel attached to the backside.

Holding it, Zaraki naturally had a lot of ideas on how to use it in his mind, and at the same time, he felt that the power was pouring out from his body.

This was a matter of course.

Generally, after someone's Zanpakuto is liberated, the power of the wielder would increase instantly, and after Bankai, the wielder's power would increase again, ranging five to ten times that of its shikai.

Before shikai, Zaraki was already a well-deserved top captain-level shinigami, but after shikai, his power had come to a whole new level.

After feeling the increased power, Zaraki looked at Mazuru who was swinging his sword at him while in his Shunkō form.

Zaraki swung his sword.

It's just a slash, but it was with the terrifying giant blade in his hand.

The sword pressure so powerful that it could not be described in words if compared to his previous attacks erupted and swept across.

*Boom*

Mazuru's body was instantly engulfed in the attack, and at the same time, the ground cracked, and the main hall of the Las Noches was severed in two parts immediately.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the power of this blow penetrated all the way to the inner wall of the barrier behind Mazuru's Bankai, creating strong ripples on the inner wall of the enchantment.

Unfortunately, in the end, the barrier was not cracked.

"What a simple yet terrible Zanpakuto…"

Mazuru's figure reappeared, he concentrated a handful of blood-red mist, and condensed a blood-red sword.

At this point, it seemed that he was used to praise or criticize everyone's Zanpakuto and it had become a habit.

But everyone present knew, that his sword was actually more terrifying than anyone else present. To some extent, it was as incomprehensible as Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu to them.

But now, it seemed to them that there was finally a solution close at hand.

Zaraki's previous sword pressure, if they saw it correctly, Mazuru seemed to have died once.

"It's really an unbelievable thing. To grow stronger to such an extent in such a short amount of time…"

After being silent for a long time, Byakuya, who had been watching the battle, sighed.

One reason was to lament that Zaraki had awakened his own Zanpakuto, and the other was to lament the current power possessed by Zaraki.

At the same time, he also understood why Unohana was so blindly confident in Zaraki.

"Next, what would you do?"

His eyes fell on Mazuru as a matter of course, if Mazuru had brought them despair before, then similarly it was Mazuru who should be in a desperate situation now.

Zaraki could take away Mazuru's life with just one blow.

Facing such a powerful offensive, how should Mazuru deal with it?

As if to answer Byakuya's inner questions, the blood mist began to boil and began to gather towards Mazuru and meanwhile another powerful slash was sent by Zaraki.

The slender blood-red blade in Mazuru's hand swung out, and layers of blood-red slashes emerged, condensing into a powerful slash, which collided against Zaraki's golden sword pressure.

*Boom*

The spirit seeds in the attacks collapsed instantly, but they did not spread to the surroundings, but disappeared in mid-air.

"Hm?"

This weird scene immediately caught Unohana's attention.

After Zaraki released his shikai, she had stopped maintaining her Kaidō which she had been doing till now, she was now extremely tired but still, all her mind and heart was as concentrated at ever on the ongoing battle.

Noticing this change, she didn't say anything immediately, but continued to observe.

*Boom*

Zaraki's Nozarashi's subsequent attacks were eye-catching as ever, almost every attack contained a powerful and unparalleled force combined with monstrous amounts of reiatsu, but Mazuru's offensive also continued to adapt to the change, his attacks were becoming more and more powerful.

Each and every terrifying sword pressure were being met with equally terrifying slash.

Unexpectedly, none of them caused much aftermath.

Honestly, that's the one thing that doesn't make sense to Unohana.

This level of attack collision, no matter how much the attacker controls it, there would be a powerful aftermath dispersing to the sides, and then affecting the people around.

And the one who was even becoming more bizarre was Mazuru.

From the first battle to the present, he first fought against Byakuya, and then fought against Unohana while Byakuya and Zaraki assisted her. Now he was fighting against Zaraki who had released his shikai. In such a long-lasting battle, he not only had released his Bankai for quite a while now but also revived several times, but he still dared to launch such massive attacks right now.

'Is his reiatsu that strong and abundant?'

'He still hasn't run out of it?'

'No, it's something else… The attacks… they were not releasing any post-collision shockwaves or anything of that kind… Could it be?'

"Could it be that this enchantment has power to devour?"

Unohana finally figured out the most probable answer and she was right.

Byakuya couldn't help but look sideways at Unohana, not understanding what she meant all of a sudden.

"Maybe we are all wrong…" Unohana said softly, "Resurrection, space-transference... these are not all of his abilities after releasing his Bankai. We have ignored one thing, we are inside the crimson world of his Bankai."

"This is his enchantment, so in this enchantment, he can achieve resurrection and space-transference by manipulating the reiashi inside his Bankai space. Similarly, it does not seems surprising if he has the ability to devour spiritual power inside his enchantment."

"The battle of shinigami is the battle of reiatsu. Many powerful attacks are realized with the help of reiatsu contained in the body of the fighters. After the attack performed by reiatsu is over, the released reiatsu will turn into reishi and stay in the air for a short time so..."

"Here in is his enchantment, where did the reiashi left after the battle go?"

"There is no doubt that they all became part of the enchantment and were being swallowed by him."

Unohana asked and answered herself while explaining it to Byakuya.

'No wonder Mazuru has neither shown any symptoms of excessive reiatsu consumption nor has he tried to save reaitsu since the start of their fight.'

"It turns out that he can devour the reiatsu remaining after our attack disperses and transform it into his power."

Byakuya understood the logic.

But after understanding, both of them became more and more pessimistic about the situation, because in their minds, the only way to defeat Mazuru was to exhaust his reiatsu and make him incapable of maintaining the barrier, and thus his ability of resurrecting would also disappear.

But if their spiritual power after every attack was being devoured by Mazuru, then it was basically impossible to delay until Mazuru reiatsu is exhausted.

"So, are you guys ready to give up?"

While Mazuru was fighting Zaraki, he was still paying attention to Unohana and Byakuya's situation. When he heard their conversation, he suddenly intervened in their conversation.

"Give up? It's impossible for me to give up!"

Zaraki laughed out loud.

Since Mazuru could regenerate and even devour their spiritual power, in the final analysis, his abilities seemed to come from this enchantment, right?

Then he would just break it down.

After Unohana expalined the importance of Mazuru's enchantment, a voice sounded in Zaraki's mind, a voice he recognized very well. It was Yachiru's voice.

He didn't understand why Yachiru's voice appeared in his mind.

But he followed the voice's words for his next action.

"Bankai—!"

After just releasing his shikai for the first time, Zaraki subsequently released his Bankai.
