A Shinobi Awakens - Chapter 83 The Changes Pt.2

Ichizo always marveled at Gin’s Bankai when he was an avid watcher of the show and reader of the Manga. Yet seeing it in person was a sight to behold as it extended toward him with swiftness,blocking the attack it contracted back into the small blade Gin carries about.

“It truly is frustrating when my Bankai can be stopped so easily by your sealed Zanpakuto, not only that but you use two Zanpakuto yet I am only privy to one.”

“This is my Arrancar Zanpakuto Hokori, the one at my waist is my Soul Reaper Zanpakuto.”

“I see. <togoku(imprison), kamishini=”” no=”” yari=””>”

‘Oh this is new.’

Gin pointed Kamishini no Yari at the sky as it extended to maximum distance, then contracted yet the blade was gone. Hundreds of small Blade shards surrounded Ichizo then Gin said the command.

“<kushi(skewer), kamishini=”” no=”” yari=””>”

All the blade shards extended to attack Ichizo at the same time leaving no escape.

‘This is a great ability, If I was a soul reaper I would probably die.’

The Blades extended yet when they hit Ichizo’s body they didn’t pierce through.

“What kind of ridiculous Hierro is that?!”

“The Hierro of Espada Cero.”

“…Saying such ridiculous things with a straight face-__-”

“It’s a wonderful technique but in order to face despair, you must know despair. .”

Gin felt a chill go down his spine when he heard those words as the blinding golden light of reiatsu engulfed him. Standing in his Resurreccion Ichizo looked at the open eyed Gin.

“That’s good your eyes are finally open as this is the first time you are seeing my Resurreccion.”

Ichizo’s massive reiatsu came down blowing away the debris and causing Gin to cover his face with his arms to keep it from entering his eyes.

“Heighten your senses. Polish your swordsmanship. Move as fast as you can.”

Using Sonido to arrive in front of Gin, Ichizo placed his hand on his chest.

“If you don’t heed my warning you will die.”

Gin began to understand despair as he looked into those heterochromatic eyes.

———————————————————————————————————————

A month later Gin and Ichizo opened their eyes in the training room.

Gin underwent a massive change similar to when Ichigo learn the Final Getsuga Tenshou yet without the Zanpakuto being connected to his Arm. His Hair grew in length as he no longer wore the sarcastic smile, and his eyes were open causing those less powerful to feel the large gap between them. Those eyes contained the power and determination to solve his past grievances with Aizen.

“Let us go to the Bathhouse as we sat here for nearly a month our bodies have practically pickled.”

Gin was in awe at his new found strength but when he heard those word he smelled the rancid stench coming off his body so he agreed without hesitation.

Making there way to the Bathhouse Ichizo ordered his servants to bring a change of clothes as well as someone to style Gin’s hair as he rather liked the length of it.

Submerging after washing their bodies, they got dressed and headed to the conference room as today is September 3rd, the day Yammy and Ulquiorra first invade Karakura town to assess the strength of Ichigo.

Everyone sat at their respective seats as Gin and Kaname stood on the sides of Aizen. Gin looked much more confident after his training session as even the Espada felt the strength behind that piercing gaze. Gin wore his standard Shinigami garbs with the white robe uniform over it with sleeves covering his hands. His hair was slicked back with a textured pomp, the smile was gone, and his cold blue eyes were open sending out a condicinding gaze.

Aizen also noticed the change but as he had absolute confidence in his abilities he paid it no mind.

“Today we will begin our scouting of the world of the living. Tier, you and Yammy will go to investigate the spiritual concentration in the area to create the Oken. While there you will also investigate an interesting Human by the name of Ichigo Kurosaki.”

Tier and Yammy both nodded while they continued to listen. What amazing acting these Arrancar have.

“I will also go as there is nothing else for me to do in Los Noches, A thousand year old relic like me should truly get out more. I’m getting so old I can hardly move like I used to.”

Ichizo said that as he rolled his neck around creating loud cracking noises while the Espada looked at him like he was a Mad man, Gin included.

‘What old man can move at the speed of sound while complaining that my speed and swordsmanship remind you of a toddlers!’

Gin felt a damaging blow from that line.

“Very well I will leave the it in your hands as well the report when you you return to Los Noches.”

Ichizo nodded then He, Tier, and Yammy made their way to the World of the Living.
