Bab 90: Byakuya Was Crushed
Reiatsu anesthetic is usually used to anesthetize patients or wounded individuals to facilitate surgery.
Depending on the patient's Reiatsu and physique, it is divided into different concentrations.
The type that Matsumoto Rangiku added to the teapot would have a certain effect even on someone like Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, let alone him.
For someone with just a Rank 2 Reiatsu like him, drinking this pot of tea would, at the very least, result in complete paralysis, rendering him unable to move.
"What dangerous ideas are running through that gal's head?"
Tokikaze was just about to pour out the tea and then have a talk with Matsumoto Rangiku when a figure emitting a powerful aura suddenly appeared at the door.
With a face as cold as frost and a chilling presence, the shallow purple eyes showed a cruel expression.
"Hmm? Byakuya?"
Upon hearing this hair-raising nickname, Byakuya Kuchiki felt a chill in his heart and instinctively wanted to turn and leave.
But upon recalling the purpose of his visit today, he forcibly stopped his steps.
"Captain Tokikaze, my goal today is to request something from you."
Upon hearing this, Tokikaze narrowed his eyes, observing this exemplary Soul Reaper.
Everyone he encountered today seemed to have their own hidden agendas.
"What is it?"
"My grandfather is preparing to appoint me as the 28th head of the Kuchiki Clan and, at the same time, take over the position of the captain of the Sixth Division."
Byakuya Kuchiki spoke coldly, "But before that, I want to wash away the past humiliations."
Tokikaze nodded, indicating that he understood.
So, you were here to get a beating today.
Back in their childhood days of training together, Byakuya Kuchiki repeatedly lost to Tokikaze in combat, appearing extremely embarrassing.
However, Byakuya's talents flourished, and his Reiatsu level soared rapidly, becoming as if he had taken some kind of enhancement drug.
Realizing that he might get a beating, Tokikaze decisively gave up the teachings of the Golden Seal Society and turned to the guidance of Kyoraku Shunsui.
Regardless of the reasons, Tokikaze refused Byakuya's challenges, citing his behavior as inconsistent with the manners of nobility.
This led to a period where the young and spirited Byakuya couldn't overcome the shadow of his past failures.
Shortly after overcoming this shadow, he encountered another vexing individual.
The one known as Yoruichi Shihoin, the "Demon Cat."
Compared to the physical humiliations Tokikaze brought upon Byakuya, Yoruichi Shihoin's victories were more of a mental blow.
Multiple losses made him seriously doubt life and question the authenticity of his talents.
Fortunately, with Yoruichi Shihoin's defection, Byakuya Kuchiki found his confidence again in other individuals.
At the same time, he deeply realized one thing.
It wasn't that his talents were lacking; it was that the individuals he encountered before didn't play fair.
Now, on the verge of inheriting the position of Clan head, Byakuya Kuchiki didn't want the past humiliations to tarnish the name of the Kuchiki Clan.
After careful consideration, he came directly to the Ninth Division to challenge Tokikaze, intending to cleanse himself of past humiliations.
He was determined to redeem himself today!
"No problem," Tokikaze readily agreed, "Are you planning to compete in terms of raw power or in Zanjutsu and Kido?"
The teachings of the Golden Seal Society included various types of matches.
This was a tradition passed down among the nobility.
"Everything," Byakuya Kuchiki replied confidently.
Before coming here, he had more than once observed Tokikaze's track record.
Although it seemed terrifying, there was still a possibility of victory.
Perhaps he still lacked a bit in raw power, but Tokikaze, lacking systematic teaching, must also have weaknesses.
This was the key to victory!
Upon hearing this response, Tokikaze's gaze towards Byakuya Kuchiki suddenly carried a trace of pity as he was up against a wrong opponent.
….
The Ninth Division's exclusive training ground.
The spacious and open area is no less impressive than the training ground used during the Captain Proficiency Test.
Moreover, there was a Kido barrier specially arranged by Tokikaze, capable of minimizing the residual impact.
"Let's go in order."
Tokikaze casually tossed a bamboo sword to Byakuya Kuchiki, "The first match is Zanjutsu."
The battle was about to begin.
Two figures instantly intertwine, and the intricate trajectories of bamboo swords unfold on the training ground, creating a spectacular and artistic combat scene.
It must be said that compared to the pressure given by Unohana, Tokikaze appears much more at ease now.
Byakuya Kuchiki was a standard Level 10 Zanjutsu user.
Mastery of various swordsmanship styles came effortlessly to him, occasionally interweaving with his unique sword techniques.
His offense was swift and relentless.
Yet, no matter how swift he struck, he still could not break through Tokikaze's defense.
Even in the midst of battle, Tokikaze continues to casually comment:
"Raise your left hand three inches, lower your right elbow, and you'll hit my heart."
"I've seen this move before; it lacks originality."
"Too bad, you missed the perfect opportunity."
Byakuya Kuchiki got more and more annoyed. He finally realized why Unohana Retsu appointed Tokikaze as the Vice-Captain of the Zanjutsu Association.
In the field of swordsmanship, his so-called skills seem like child's play before Tokikaze.
Ineffective and immature.
Snap!
Byakuya Kuchiki's bamboo sword was knocked away, and Tokikaze's bamboo sword was at his throat.
"You lose."
Facing defeat, Byakuya Kuchiki took a deep breath, quickly collected himself, and looks forward again with determined eyes.
"Let's continue."
The second competition, Hakuda.
On the training ground, shadows of fists intertwine, and figures moved swiftly.
However, the moment the battle began, Byakuya Kuchiki was completely overwhelmed.
His Hakuda skills were not as good as his Zanjutsu.
Facing the barrage of punches, he could not even organize an effective defence and was completely cornered.
"Next!"
Byakuya Kuchiki's tone slightly intensified, showing signs of breaking his cold and icy demeanor.
The third competition, Shunpo.
Having been trained by Yoruichi Shihoin for many years, Byakuya Kuchiki did not only master the Shihoin Clan's secret Shunpo but also acquired Shunpo techniques similar to those of Yoruichi herself.
The two engage in combat using Shunpo, leaving numerous afterimages on the training ground.
This battle appears more intense, with Tokikaze's Shunpo proficiency not significantly surpassing Byakuya Kuchiki's.
If it weren't for the development of techniques related to the Rankyaku, there's a high possibility that he could have been defeated at the moment this match started.
Byakuya Kuchiki seemed to see a glimmer of victory.
But in the next instant.
Two identical figures simultaneously appear in front and behind him. A gentle smile, tinged with a sense of disgust, distracts his attention for a moment.
Seizing the opportunity, Tokikaze delivers a strike directly to Byakuya Kuchiki's neck.
"Byakuya, you've lost again..."
