A Shinobi Awakens - Chapter 82 Seishin Menta Pt.1

Ichizo lead Gin to the Training room then sealed the doors, erected a powerful barrier, while also sending out a message to the Espada telling him the Gin was on their side now as well.

“Now we have a month to make you Powerful enough to beat Aizen but first (Moonlit Cleanse)”

A radiant white light covered Gin improving his Spiritual Body while making it so Kyoka Suigetsu would never affect him again.

“Now you don’t have to worry about Kyoka Suigetsu’s complete hypnosis but, Even without that frightening power he is still extremely powerful. For the next month we will train but if we do it the normal way we won’t get anywhere, so we will fight in your Spiritual world!”

“I didn’t think that was possible.”

“It is but it is also extremely dangerous as fighting in a Zanpakuto’s Spiritual realm means if someone had malicious intent they could kill your Zanpakuto’s spirit itself. In the Archives of the Soul Society it was once used to prove great strength at an extreme risk between a trusted Master-Disciple pair. Like Jinzen the two members must communicate with their Zanpakuto, The Master must gain permission from the Disciple to enter said disciples Zanpakuto spiritual world. This Forbidden technique is called Seishin Menta(Spirit mentoring), there was a time when the Head Captain did this with his subordinates to train his Ryujin Jakka. Yet when he entered a world he accidentally burned his Disciples Zanpakuto spirit to death, therefore is was deemed forbidden.”

“So what do I have to do?”

“I will place my hand on Shinso, when you enter the world I will be there with you.”

Gin placed his Zanpakuto in front on him then sat down cross legged with his hand at the Hilt. Ichizo sat down in front of him placing his hand on the blade, after a few moments they both were in Gin’s Spiritual world.

Ichizo found himself in a large forest, yet there were no leaves on the trees. The ground dry and devoid of vegetation, the air cold.

In the distance two figures stood side by side, One small, one large, they then walked in Ichizo’s direction. As they got closer Ichiz was able to determine that the Large figure was Gin’s Zanpakuto Shinso.

Shinso stood at 8 feet tall yet he had a rather unstable build, sometimes bulging muscles, sometimes thin, sometimes fat, while his height also fluctuated. His face was hidden by a metal mist that only his Blue eyes peered through.

“So what is it that we have to do?”

“As a former captain you probably train extensively to acquire your bankai and have built up a lot of trust with your Zanpakuto. Despite that have you two ever fought together?”

That was a loaded question because sure Gin utilizes his Zanpakuto yet they were never side by side like right now.

“The Head Captain and his Ryujin Jakka are indeed such a wonderful combination because they know everything about each other. Down to the way they Fight, you are missing that and Shinso you have a lot more to offer. Your extending an retraction are indeed wonderful for surprise attacks or overpowering a less powerful opponent. As the Fastest zanpakuto with the ability to expand and contract at the speed of sound, The poison contained within your blade, and the Ability to turn to dust, you should have a lot more to offer than what you have shared with Gin.”

Ichizo drew Hokori then used Sonido to appear behind them both.

“So how will you fare against a faster, stronger opponent that knows all of your abilities? Cero!”

The White Cero engulfed them wiping out a large portion of the forest as it did so.

“Oi!!! Gin! OIII! WHO THE HELL IS THIS BASTARD?”- Shinso

“A crazy Arrancar.”

“Shouldn’t you two be working together? Cero.”

Ichizo moved quickly from location to location while launching powerful Cero not giving them the opportunity to retaliate. When they thought they could collect themselves the Mad Ichizo was behind them already.

“You two aren’t even trying! Forget it i’ll just wipe out everything, Cero Metralleta.”

Ichizo charged up a massive amount of spirit energy as thousands of Cero were fired at the same time like a Machine gun eradicating the forest, forcing Gin and Shinso on the defensive.

“OIII HE REALLY MEANS IT BY END EVERYTHING!!! IF WE DIE HERE, WE REALLY DIE!!!”

“He’s training us by actually coming at us with the intent to kill but, if he used his true abilities we would already be dead so be grateful these are just Cero. Ridiculously powerful Cero that can kill us if we aren’t careful but still Just Cero.”

“COULD YOU STOP WITH THE SARCASM FOR 10 MINUTES PLEASE!!”

“But why? Don’t you like the rush when everything is on the line?”

“That maniac did mention something interesting though, Gin I have an Idea.”

“If you have the energy to talk while dodging I guess this is too easy. Ni Cero Metralleta.”

Raising his other hand he did the exact same thing. Shinso returned to his Katana form then Gin attempted to break free of the Cero, Ichizo noticing the change stopped to look on intrigued.

“Bankai: Kamishini no Yari”

With that Gin Began his counterattack.
