Naruto in Infinity

Chapter 449 One step away

Kenpachi Zaraki seemed to know that he was a bit directionally challenged, so he didn't refuse.

The two walked together towards the Mao underground prison.

And Kusaka Yachiru stood at the gate of the 11th Division, looking at the two figures, with a smile on his face.

If this continues, maybe she can really return to where she should be.

At this time, Ikkaku Madarame asked Yumichika, "Yumichika, you said that the last time they fought for a month, how long will it take this time?"

"The last time the captain obviously lost his strength and ended the battle. After that, the captain seemed to have become much stronger, so this time it should last longer." Yumichika said after thinking for a while.

"I think so too." Ikkaku Madarame looked at the surrounding Shinigami at this time, and suddenly said fiercely, "What are you still looking at here? Go and complete the task quickly, this month we must be prepared without the support of the captain!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, the surrounding Shinigami also answered loudly.

As for the outcome of this battle, they didn't say anything, because it was self-evident that their captain had never won a single battle against Vice Captain Xia Li.

This was completely impossible in the past.

In the past, the 11th Division's view of their captain was that except for the captain-in-chief, no one else in the Gotei 13 would be their captain's opponent, and even many team members still believed that Kenpachi Zaraki could defeat Captain-in-chief Yamamoto.

Until Kenpachi Zaraki lost to Xia Li in a head-on battle, this blind belief finally stopped.

And this time, just as they thought, half a month later, they still didn't see Xia Li and Kenpachi Zaraki return.

"Hey, Renji, do you want to bet when the captain will come back?" Madarame Ikkaku said, holding his sword at an angle.

"No." Renji refused directly.

"Boring, the captain is holding on for longer and longer, maybe he will be able to defeat Xia Li later." Madarame Ikkaku said, he still trusted his captain very much.

Kenpachi Zaraki will never accept defeat. He will definitely work hard to become stronger and defeat Xia Li.

Just like this time, Kenpachi Zaraki has obviously become stronger.

"That's possible... You don't know how deep Xia Li's strength is hidden. This time, he may see the hope of victory, but next time he will fall into despair again..." Renji said, recalling his contact with Xia Li.

"It shouldn't be that bad, right?" Madarame Ikkaku didn't doubt Renji's words, but Xia Li's current strength is already strong enough. Is he still hiding his strength?

"Who knows? Anyway, this is how I feel about him. Every time I think his strength has reached this point, it will refresh my cognition again."

Renji was also a little helpless. He first became the vice-captain and then defeated the strongest captain. Who can withstand this?

Thinking back to the time when Renji had the goal of defeating Xia Li, it seems that he should first think about how to become the vice-captain, and then think about how to defeat the captain of the sixth division, Byakuya Kuchiki, and then set his goal on Xia Li.

However, Renji felt a little desperate when he thought about his current strength and still hadn't mastered Bankai.

If there was no Xia Li as a comparison, then Renji's strength would still be at the top among the students of this class.

Unfortunately, with Xia Li as a comparison, Renji felt that his strength was completely insufficient.

Xia Li was so powerful, and Renji didn't think that Xia Li hadn't mastered Bankai...

"Why is the gap between people so big..." Renji sighed.

Madarame Ikkaku heard Renji's lament and knew that Renji and Xia Li were in the same class, so he couldn't help but comfort him, "I think you'd better not regard Xia Li as someone in the same class as you. From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a perverted guy. You keep staring at Xia Li and it will only hit your confidence."

"I understand, but... he is not only in the same class as me, but he used to live next to me, so I can't ignore him at all." Renji smiled bitterly.

Madarame Ikkaku immediately patted Renji's shoulder with a little pity.

Originally, he felt that Renji was a bit similar to him, because Madarame Ikkaku's goal was to defeat Kenpachi Zaraki...

But now, it seems that it is obviously more difficult for Renji to defeat Xia Li.

However, Madarame Ikkaku also knew that Renji would not lose confidence because of his personality, which is why Madarame Ikkaku is optimistic about Renji.

"Come on." Madarame Ikkaku said.

"Well, then Ikkaku, come with me to the training ground and teach me Bankai!" Renji stared at Madarame Ikkaku at this time.

Madarame Ikkaku was stunned, and Renji was waiting for him here. At this time, Madarame Ikkaku was a little helpless. If he had known earlier, he should not have exposed his Bankai. After Yumichika knew about it, the other party told Renji, but...

Renji is also very difficult to deal with alone.

Thinking of this, he had been comforting Renji before, and it was not easy to refuse now.

"Okay, remember to find a place where there is no one." Madarame Ikkaku finally did not refuse.

"Understood!" Renji showed a look of joy.

In fact, Madarame Ikkaku also told him why he didn't want to reveal his Bankai in front of others.

Because once his Bankai is revealed, Madarame Ikkaku will most likely be forced to be selected as a vice-captain or captain in another team.

And Ikkaku Madarame joined the Gotei 13 just to follow Kenpachi Zaraki and fight with him.

So Ikkaku Madarame could not accept being transferred to another squad, and naturally he was unwilling to reveal that he had mastered Bankai.

Unless it was a one-on-one situation with the enemy and there were no other people around, Ikkaku Madarame would use Bankai, and after using Bankai, he would definitely choose to kill the enemy with all his strength to prevent the enemy from revealing his Bankai to his companions.

Therefore, Renji had already prepared a place to ask Ikkaku Madarame about Bankai. After his inspection, no one would go there.

However, when Renji and Ikkaku Madarame returned from training, they found out...

"The captain and vice-captain Xia Li haven't come back yet?!" Ikkaku Madarame looked at Yumichika in surprise.

"Not yet." Yumichika confirmed.

"It's really not over yet..." Ikkaku Madarame and Renji looked at each other. They spent several days training this time.

This means that the battle between Kenpachi Zaraki and Xia Li has lasted for more than 20 days. You know, they are fighting, not training, how can it last so long?

"These two monsters..."

If it were other people, even if they were allowed to fight, they would not be able to hold out for so many days, right?

Based on Madarame Ikkaku's understanding of Kenpachi Zaraki, their battle obviously would not have a halftime break, and it must be from the opening to the last moment.

This is very scary.

"Maybe the captain will be able to win the final victory this time." Madarame Ikkaku said.

Renci did not deny it at this time, and it was obvious that he was also shocked.

After a few people looked at each other, they didn't say anything more and continued to wait for a day or two.

During this time, they often wandered around the gate of the 11th Division, hoping to be the first to discover when Kenpachi Zaraki and Xia Li returned.

Then, on the second day, they saw Xia Li dragging their captain back again.

"We still lost." Madarame Ikkaku and the other three sighed at the same time.

However, this time, when Xia Li approached, they saw that Xia Li had many more wounds on his body than the last time, and his death suit also had many more holes.

Of course, Kenpachi Zaraki was still in a worse state. His death suit had become like a piece of cloth, and there was no intact place.

"Why are you in front of the gate?" Xia Li asked in surprise when he saw these people waiting at the gate of the 11th Division.

"Are you worried about your captain?" Xia Li said and handed Kenpachi Zaraki to Ikkaku Madarame.

"That's not the case. I just thought that your battle should be over soon, so I'm waiting here." Ikkaku Madarame took over Kenpachi Zaraki, who looked like a puddle of mud, and replied.

"Is that so? You take Kenpachi Zaraki to rest, and I'll go back first." Xia Li stretched and said with a smile, as if he didn't care about his injuries.

"Xia Li, do you want to recover from your injuries in the 11th Division first?" Renji asked at this time.

"No need, this injury will be fully recovered in less than a day." Xia Li also looked at the wounds on his body. Although there were many, they were basically shallow and recovered quickly.

"Is that so? Okay then." Lianci nodded, and was also shocked by Xia Li's recovery ability.

If he had such an injury, he would have collapsed, right?

It would take a month to fully recover, but the other party only needed one day... Such a body is no different from their monster captain, right?

Lianci looked at Kenpachi Zaraki over there. His injuries were more serious, but Kenpachi Zaraki's injuries were similar last time, but he was alive and kicking after a few days.

They are really two monsters. Only these two guys can fight for so long without stopping, right?

"Xiao Li!" At this time, Kusaka Yachiru suddenly appeared from nowhere, then jumped onto Lianci's shoulder and waved to Xia Li.

"Huh?" Xia Li looked at Kusaka Yachiru and frowned. He didn't notice how Kusaka Yachiru appeared.

At this time, Kusaka Yachiru smiled at Xia Li and said, "Thank you for helping Ajian."

Soon, when Kusaka Yachiru said this, Madarame Ikkaku and the other three showed puzzled expressions. Is Xia Li helping Kenpachi Zaraki?

Aren't they satisfying each other's desire to fight?

In their understanding, this should be considered mutual help. Why did Kusaka Yachiru say that Xia Li was helping Kenpachi Zaraki unilaterally?

And Xia Li looked at Kusaka Yachiru deeply. With his petite body and innocent face, why can he have such a good relationship with Kenpachi Zaraki? And he can also become the vice-captain of the 11th Division?

In addition, the name Yachiru may not be given by the other party casually.

"You're welcome." Xia Li replied.

Then Xia Li left, and he also had a guess about Kusaka Yachiru's identity.

Especially after meeting Stark, Stark's 'Zanpakutō' can be materialized, and Kusaka Yachiryu's performance is indeed very strange...

However, Xia Li didn't care too much. He looked at his somewhat embarrassed figure and showed a slightly satisfied smile.

Xia Li was still very satisfied with the gains of this battle.

It took longer than last time, also because Zaraki Kenpachi had become much stronger and he was hit by Xia Li less often, so he didn't need to expend so much energy to recover from his injuries.

This means that Zaraki Kenpachi's change of direction has increased his endurance.

Looking at the injuries on Xia Li's body, one can understand that it is not too easy for Xia Li to defeat Zaraki Kenpachi this time. Of course, it is not too difficult either...

If Zaraki Kenpachi wants to defeat Xia Li, he still needs to work harder.

Moreover, this result does not mean that Xia Li's progress is slower than Zaraki Kenpachi's, because their progress cannot be compared.

After Xia Li restricted many of his abilities, he left the most primitive way to fight Zaraki Kenpachi, which was a disadvantage in itself.

Of course, this was Xia Li's own choice, and after doing so, he made great progress.

Then Xia Li was injured like this, much more serious than last time. Does this prove that Zaraki Kenpachi has made more progress?

People who don't understand Zaraki Kenpachi's situation may think so, and they may also think that Zaraki Kenpachi can defeat Xia Li after a few more attempts.

But in fact this is not the case. Kenpachi Zaraki is not so much making progress as he is restoring his original strength.

This is the power Zaraki Kenpachi should have.

As for Xia Li's progress, the upper limit has been raised, and it is normal to not be able to compare with Zaraki Kenpachi's recovery speed.

If it can be compared, then Zaraki Kenpachi is not worth Xia Li's expectations.

By the end of this fight, Zaraki Kenpachi's whole body was turning blood red, and his posture became more like an evil ghost, and even a pair of horns seemed to grow out of his head...

"I hope your upper limit is more than this." Xia Li murmured.

By the end of this battle, Zaraki Kenpachi's power improvement had slowed down.

Xia Li obviously did not reach the limit, so he hoped that Kenpachi Zaraki would have a higher upper limit, so that Kenpachi Zaraki could better serve as his sparring partner.

However, at this rate, maybe Zaraki Kenpachi will be able to fully recover his strength next time, right?

At that time, all we need to do is arrange a battle between Zaraki Kenpachi and Unohana, if Zaraki Kenpachi can successfully defeat Unohana.

Then the knot in Mao Zhihua's heart that has lasted for thousands of years can be solved.

Then, the idea of ​​sacrificing his own life to allow Zaraki Kenpachi to recover was naturally no longer necessary.

"It should be soon."

Xia Li was in a good mood at the moment and walked towards her yard.

He needs to sort out the gains from these twenty days of continuous high-intensity battles! (End of chapter)
