Death god, my Zanpakuto is a bit trendy

"You mean, we can start fighting after you are liberated?"

"That's right!"

"OK."

As soon as Haruto finished speaking, the chanting started.

"Thirty-Nine of the Binding Path"

"!?"

Before the shock on his face showed, Byakuya understood what Haruto meant from his eyes:

Just because you can't interfere with his initial solution doesn't mean you can't defend yourself in advance.

"Round gate fan!"

The hemispherical shield had been deployed in front of Haruto, and Byakuya hurriedly raised the Zanpakutō in his hand;

"Let's scatter——"

"The Dao Binding..."

Byakuya's recovery speed was not too slow, Haruto followed closely with the second form of binding, and the chanting sound was completely suppressed by the Zanpakutō's first spell.

"Senbonzakura!"

"Wow."

The blade was scattered like flying petals, and the pink-white light reflected from it almost filled half of the dojo——

Extremely girly.

"How about it!"

Byakuya waved his arm holding the handle of the sword lightly, and the cherry-colored storm formed by the sword blade drew an elegant trajectory in the air like a finger.

"Is my Zanpakutō qualified to win the most beautiful title in Soul Society?"

"......have!"

Haruto gave Byakuya the most positive reply very honestly.

Not giving him the evaluation of "sissy" is already his greatest kindness - Haruto will definitely not tell Byakuya anyway, sooner or later this title will be taken away by his future sister-in-law, so he can be proud of himself at this time. .

"You know the stuff."

Byakuya hadn't noticed Haruto's abnormality yet.

"Since you are not blind today, I will show you Senbonzakura's abilities out of mercy!"

"He's not just good-looking!"

Byakuya waved the handle of the sword vigorously, and the Senbonzakura trees began to fly around him like fallen leaves blown by the autumn wind.

"I know."

"Ah? What do you know?"

Haruto's capable and concise three words instantly interrupted Byakuya's ever-improving style.

"Of course it's Senbonzakura's ability: the blade breaks down into countless thin blades that are hard to see with the naked eye, and when illuminated by light, they look like flying petals——"

"What's wrong with the above description?"

"..."

Byakuya was silenced by Haruto's words.

The description just now was exactly what he said when he showed the Hakkai in front of Kuchiki Ginrei...exactly word for word.

"Where did you know that?"

Fortunately, Byakuya at this age didn't care much about such "sensitive" information. He was just surprised again by Haruto's source of information.

"Please~"

Haruto spread his hands and said.

He originally planned to make a joke with Byakuya, but when he realized that Haruto had let the slip, he quickly pretended that nothing happened and managed to reconcile.

"My intelligence sources are very extensive, and it's not like you don't know that."

"......Right."

The two of them had only been together for a year, but during the days at the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy, Haruto often got some secret information that he didn't even know about, including information about cat demons - these were the four nobles. Most of the mid-level nobles would never have the opportunity to come into contact with the information about the head of the Shifengyuan family - so Byakuya was not surprised by this.

And although Byakuya didn't attach much importance to intelligence, he was impulsive and impulsive, and he was actually the most loyal at this age.

Regarding what Haruto told him, his mouth was as tight as welding, and he didn't reveal any of it to the outside world.

"Okay!"

Byakuya took the initiative to end the intermission.

"Although you know Senbonzakura's ability, the difference between facing it personally and knowing the information cannot be figured out by just thinking."

"Continue the competition just now!"

Byakuya raised his right arm straight and pointed the empty hilt at Haruto.

"Senbonzakura!"

"Wow!"

The petals shoot out.

Thousands of thin blades swept in from three angles from the front, left, and right along the direction of Byakuya's arm.

"Click!"

The thin blade struck the round gate fan head-on.

The binding path No. 39 only lasted for a little over two seconds, and dense cracks appeared on the surface.

This is not only the gap between spiritual pressure, but also the qualitative change brought about by the Zanpakutō Shikai.

"Mu Da Mu Da!"

As the blades on the left and right sides hit one after another, the circular gate fan used by Haruto instantly shattered into scattered spirit particles.

"it's over!"

As the round gate fan shattered, the Senbonzakura surrounding every corner of the surrounding area shot towards Haruto, who was no longer able to parry!

"Clang clang clang!"

The blade strangled everyone in the encirclement without any blind spots.

Due to the distance problem, Byakuya was unable to fully control the trajectory of the blade. As a result, many petals collided with each other and fell to the ground, making him unable to continue controlling it for a short period of time.

But it doesn't matter!

It doesn't take much to recover the loss.

And it was precisely because the attacks were intensive enough that Byakuya was confident. It was absolutely impossible for Haruto to remain unscathed by this attack.

However--

Byakuya quickly realized something was wrong.

He had deliberately controlled Hajime's damage just now. With a very good understanding of Haruto, it was enough to ensure that he could take down the opponent without causing fatal injuries.

However, the blade that Senbonzakura transformed into was not only not blocked by Haruto, but instead passed through his body.

"Shit!"

Byakuya took a few tenths of a second to react to what happened: the person protected by the round gate was not Haruto himself, but the new Kidō whose voice was completely suppressed by Senbonzakura's Shikai:

"Kūtō 21: Red Smoke Release"

The Red Smoke Release itself is just a Binding Technique with the effect of a smoke bomb, and it cannot simulate the effect of a human figure. If you observe carefully, you can easily find intuitive problems such as body stiffness. Unfortunately, Byakuya was too careless with Shikai in his hand. But with the blessing of another Binding Technique, the combined Kidō made the effect greatly changed. Big change:

"The 26th Way of Binding: Warp Light"

Warp Light is a secret way of binding that hides one's whereabouts. When combined with the Red Smoke Release and incorporating special techniques, it can create a realistic shadow of the user; and the so-called special technique actually refers to the secret method of instant movement that Byakuya has suffered many times from Yoruichi Shihouin:

"Utsukase"

Although Byakuya has mastered instant movement, such a high-end technique cannot be used at present; but in order to find out the weakness of Utsukase, he dragged Haruto to conduct a long period of research... The corresponding result is the current transformation of the Kidō.

The most basic condition for using this move is to complete the chanting of two Kidō at the same time, and the requirements for spiritual pressure and proficiency of "double chanting" are obviously not achievable at the student stage; if "chanting is abandoned" is added on this basis, then even a brilliant noble descendant like Byakuya is currently unable to use it in actual combat.

Who would have thought

The move that was supposed to be used against the cat demon actually worked on him first. No wonder Byakuya didn't expect it.

When Byakuya was looking for Haruto everywhere - the large-scale killing ability of Senbonzakura made the spiritual pressure in the venue a little chaotic - a ghostly voice came from behind Byakuya:

"Where are you looking?"

"!!"

Byakuya turned his head suddenly when he heard the voice.

When he saw Haruto performing a new Hado, his eyes expressed his strong dissatisfaction instead of his mouth that had no chance to speak:

"What about not using Shunpo?"

Haruto didn't even use his eyes to respond to Byakuya: He said you can't use Shunpo, but he didn't say you can't use it.

Besides...

He can only run fast, but he can't even reach the edge of Shunpo!

————

"The Thirty Ways of Binding"

Haruto immediately raised his hand and drew a standard inverted triangle in the air in front of him.

"Mouth flash three times!"

The fang shape formed by the golden light beam appeared at the top of the triangle.

"Swoosh!"

Like the bite of a wild beast.

The Zuitu Sanshan, which was close at hand, locked onto Byakuya's arms and waist respectively.

Facing the rapidly shooting fang beam, the distance between the two was not enough for Byakuya to chant a new ghost way.

As for Senbonzakura...

The gap between Shikai and Bankai was there, both in number and speed-there were only so many blades transformed by Senbonzakura, and at this time they were all concentrated in the other half of the field where Haruto was originally, and they could not rush back to save their master.

"Don't even think about it!"

Byakuya's left arm swung behind him along with his sight, and between his fingers, more than a dozen streams of light flew past Zuitu Sanshan and headed straight at him!

"Bang——"

Although the fang-shaped beam was not penetrated, it was directly detonated by the blade during the impact.

"Boom!"

"Good fellow."

Byakuya's reaction surprised Haruto.

There was no cherry blossom around Byakuya. Haruto thought that he had used all his blades for attacking, but he didn't expect that he had such a trick.

——It's possible that he was using it to defend against sneak attacks, or he was preparing to use this trick to trick him.

"But..."

The light of the reiki from the explosion of the binding path had just lit up, and the rapid sound of breaking through the air had already passed through the mist of light pollution.

"!!"

The sword and the sheath were used as weapons, and they went straight to Byakuya's head like a spear!

"Swish!"

Byakuya narrowly avoided the flying hidden weapon - if he hadn't used the same method to avoid Haruto's "charge" just now in the dormitory, he might not have been able to react so quickly at this moment.

"Too sweet!"
