2/2
"Wha-?!" Komamura wasn't even given time to finish voicing his shock as he was quickly enveloped within a giant black coffin. In just a second later the black coffin disappeared revealing Komamura completely incapacitated. The helmet covering his face had finally come undone as it shattered and broke into small tiny pieces revealing the light brown colored fur of a well groomed wolf head that was hidden before.
PSH!
The sound of blood spewing out in multiple places on Komamura's body echoed in the empty street that they were standing in as his giant body fell to the ground.
Thud.
Kishin took a moment to glance down at the defeated Captain's frame beneath him with indifference. "Still conscious? Well, that was to be expected. I was barely able to bring out a third of the true might of that spell, but I imagined it worked as well as I needed it to. Don't worry Captain Komamura. The injuries you sustained aren't enough to kill you, however I advise you not to move. If you agitate your wounds too much then you'll die from bleeding out. I know I said this before but...just remember. You attacked me first. I was simply defending myself."
FWISH!
He immediately left without waiting around to hear what Komamura had to say in response. A couple flash steps later and he arrived before the entrance of the Central 46 compound. There was a bridge that led from the outside towards the inner sector right across a circular moat that surrounded the compound. Kishin raised his eyebrow questioningly as he took note that some of the guards were still around.
"Odd. So the guards are still here, but...if I had to guess then Aizen probably placed them under his Kyoka Suigetsu."
He nonchalantly walked up to the sealed door prompting one of the guards atop the wall to shout, "Halt! State your bus-UH?!"
Kishin completely ignored the guards and raised his spiritual pressure in the area to incredibly high levels which caused all the guards on the nearby wall to faint underneath the weight of it. He then unsheathed his Zanpakuto and broke the door leading inside. As he expected there was no alarm sounding out his intrusion into the Compound and so he dashed right through and entered the dark underground assembly area. He had come here only once before as the memories of his time being questioned by the Chamber resurfaced in his head. As he stood at the familiar doorway overlooking the assembly hall he smirked and mused at the sight and smell of blood.
"Well, it's good to know that I didn't break through the Compound for nothing. Turns out that they really are dead. Great. Good riddance."
Not a shred of remorse or grief was present in Kishin as he dashed past the dead bodies of the Central 46 Chamber and headed down a long winding stairwell that led towards the Seijotokyorin. There was a dark blue light that illuminated the long way down, though visibility was still relatively poor, however there was a light shining through the space of an open archway right at the very bottom of the stairwell he was following. That was the entrance to the Seijotokyorin.
Aizen should be here…
Tap.
He stopped walking the moment he entered through that archway door taking in the sight before him. It was a large gigantic hall with well polished brown colored wooden flooring with 46 tall thin towers that represented the different residences that the Central 46 Chamber members lived in.
"Ehhh? Pretty impressive." He quietly commented.
"Is it now?" A voice echoed from the darkness deep within the back of the giant spacious room.
Kishin turned in the direction of the voice taking note of the three familiar reiatsu signatures of Aizen, Gin, and Tosen. He smirked and slowly walked forward in their direction. "I had thought that you'd be here."
Aizen grinned and finally stepped into the light with Gin and Tosen behind as he replied, "And I had thought that you might show up here, Chigetsu-kun. No, rather I should say that I have been waiting."
"Heh. Framing me for your murder Aizen? It's almost like you can see the future."
"Oh? Are you suggesting that I was foreshadowing my own death at your hands?"
"Very astute." Kishin then glanced over at Tosen and noted his missing arm. "I see you're doing well, Tosen, but let me know if you ever need a helping hand." He taunted towards the end.
Tosen frowned and was about to retort, but Aizen held up his palm to stop him. "Chigetsu-kun. I'm a bit curious. Now that you're here what exactly do you plan to do? Surely you don't believe you can kill me."
Kishin furrowed his brow and unsheathed his Zanpakuto. "Actually that's why I'm here. I know that you're after the Hogyoku and I'm sure you already guessed that I'd interfere with the execution. I know Urahara placed the Hogyoku inside Hinamori's soul and I know you have another method of extracting it, but you've missed your chance. Hinamori is out of your reach now. You won't be able to capture her anymore."
Aizen stared indifferently at Kishin for several long moments before letting out a sigh. "Haaah. So you even realized that there was another way to extract the Hogyoku from a soul...or was it Urahara Kisuke that informed you? Well, not that it matters. Either way I commend you for planning this far in advance to keep her away from me. Then again, for you to succeed you must be able to keep me here. Do you honestly believe that you possess enough strength to stop me?"
"Well I won't know unless I try right? Don't tell me you think you'd come out unscathed from a fight against me? Having observed me all this time I'm sure even you have your reservations."
Aizen narrowed his eyes in amusement and caution. "My, I was right about you. Such an interesting child, but you should think carefully about your next moves, Chigetsu-kun. Have you ever been able to outmaneuver me? Your Hollowfication was thanks to me. Your battles and struggles here in Soul Society were thanks to me. As for your meticulous meetings with Urahara Kisuke and the Visoreds, they were all but meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Instead it only served to reveal your true nature to me. Hinamori Momo and Kuchiki Rukia's assignment in Karakura Town was because of me. Kurosaki Ichigo entering Soul Society, Rukia's execution, your crime, it was all part of my plan. Try as you might to resist, but even you know that you are powerless to do anything in the end."
Kishin furrowed his brow at Aizen's boasting. "Gloat as much as you want, you still have to pass through me if you want Hinamori, and I've been itching to carve you up for awhile now."
Once more Aizen let out a sigh. Tosen placed his hand on the hilt of his Zanpakuto and commented, "Aizen-sama, I shall t-"
Aizen waved his hand in the air cutting Tosen off as he stepped forward and commanded, "Gin, Kaname. Do not interfere. I shall take care of him myself. I am curious to see exactly just how powerful he has truly become."
Kishin smirked as he watched Aizen walk towards him. "Shall we?"
Aizen grinned and unsheathed his Zanpakuto. "I once told you that confidence comes from having ability. Your confidence in this moment means you are quite sure of yourself, Chigetsu-kun. Very well, why don't you show me the skills you seem to be so proud of."
BAM!
In but a mere instant both Kishin and Aizen disappeared into the wind as their swords clashed against one another generating a fierce whirlwind to erupt in the surrounding space. Sparks of silver and orange light flickered in the dimly lit room as the high pitched sound of metal hitting metal echoed in the air. Kishin's sword whizzed past Aizen's head as the Captain ducked and stabbed at Kishin's chest.
FWISH!
Kishin quickly twisted his body in the air before swinging his sword around at Aizen's throat only to have it blocked midway.
CLANG! KLING!
TING! CLINK!
WHOOSH!
The both of them moved so incredibly fast that even some of the other Captains would have trouble following their speed. Kishin's entire mental attention was focused on Aizen as he didn't dare lose focus for a single moment.
His speed is incredibly fast. It's slightly faster than mine, but he's just a hair slower than Yoruichi. Even still he employs his Shunpo with incredible precision and skill.
CLING!
Kishin turned just in time to block a sword strike to his back before twisting his blade along Aizen's own attempting to stab towards the Captain's chest, however Aizen quickly turned his body and side-stepped the attack.
WHOOSH!
The sound of the air being pierced resounded in the room. Aizen smirked and slashed his blade diagonally at Kishin's neck, but Kishin kicked off of the ground dashing far to his left to avoid the strike creating some space between them.
"UH?!" He widened his eyes in shock and quickly twisted his body just in time to block a sword strike to his ribs as Aizen had already appeared behind him.
Even though I'm on full alert, this bastard still managed to find an opening to get behind me. Is it a difference in experience?
Kishin gritted his teeth and slid his sword in an upwards motion pushing Aizen's blade in the air. This left Aizen's chest vulnerable for attack so Kishin quickly slashed down with his sword.
FWIP!
The sound of his sharp blade cutting the air echoed on the wind, but Aizen merely grinned and dashed backwards with Shunpo.
Kishin didn't let up and shouted, "Saku, Sekiken Zansatsu!"
SHING!
His Zanpakuto quickly transformed into its Shikai release state sending a giant bloody blade right where Aizen had landed.
Aizen furrowed his brow and quickly slashed out with his Zanpakuto as he chanted, "Hado #78: Zangerin."
FWIM!
BOOM!
A giant smoke cloud diffused into the air as Aizen's powerful Kido attack clashed against Kishin's powerful bloody blade.
"My my, what a dangerous ability, Chigetsu-kun." Aizen semi-warily remarked as the smoke cloud dissipated.
Kishin narrowed his eyes and simply replied, "What's wrong? Don't tell me you're starting to sweat? Aizen."
"Heh. Trying to provoke me? Now now Chigetsu-kun, you should know better than to waste your time with that."
"Really? It never hurts to try right? Who knows? Maybe I'll hit a mark."
Aizen took a moment to glance at Kishin's Zanpakuto in curiosity. "Sekiken Zansatsu is it? It appears you've trained quite extensively with your Zanpakuto. I can sense the harmony between you and your blade. Quite impressive for someone your age."
"Oh? A compliment from you? That's some high praise."
"Then allow me to give you more praise. The fact that you can contend against me with your current skill level in Zanjutsu is quite impressive. Take pride in that. Even your skill in Hoho, while indeed slower than my own, is still fast enough to allow you to react to my attacks. Then I wonder…"
Kishin furrowed his brow. "Wonder what?"
"What of your Kido?"
Kishin widened his eyes in shock as Aizen chanted out without warning, "Hado #4: Byakurai!"
Kishin clicked his tongue and quickly Shunpo'd away to avoid the giant lightning blast. The wall behind him was immediately left with a giant gaping hole in it causing Kishin to mentally note that Aizen's skill in Kido was truly fearsome, but without falling behind he chanted out his own Kido spell. "Hado #31: Shakkaho!"
PEW!
A fiery red cannonball flew through the air right for Aizen as he smirked and responded, "Hado #32: Okasen!" A yellow lightning flash erupted from Aizen's hand and smashed into Kishin's Kido spell causing a burst of dark smoke to disperse into the air. Aizen grinned and simply continued, "Hado #33: Sokatsui!"
Kishin furrowed his brow and didn't back down. "Hado #41: Kongobaku!"
BOOOOM!
A red and blue flare of colors illuminated the room from the clash of the opposing fire oriented Kido spells. Their little bout continued on as they continued to alternate casting spells at one another with Aizen casting one and Kishin countering before Kishin casted one with Aizen countering.
"Bakudo #62: Hyapporankan!"
"Hado #67: Gaki Rekko!"
"Bakudo #63: Sajo Sabaku!"
"Hado #54: Haien!"
"Bakudo #61: Rikujokoro!"
"Bakudo #80: Sodai Seki!"
"Hado #58: Tenran!"
"Hado #71: Sodai Sho!"
"Bakudo #75: Gochutekkan!"
"Bakudo #84: Hachikaku Kabe!"
"Hado #88: Hiryu Gekizoku Shinten Raiho!"
"Bakudo #81: Danku!"
As spells flew from one corner of the giant room to the other Gin and Tosen began to slightly back up more and more into the distance not wanting to get caught up in the devastation that was causing the very air itself to quake and tremble. They merely stood and watched in awe and shock at how Kishin was able to keep up against Aizen in a battle of Kido. They watched as the white and blue rods of Aizen's Bakudo were destroyed by the laser green light of Kishin's Hado before the yellow chain of Kishin's Bakudo was destroyed by the fiery flame of Aizen's Hado.
Then they watched as Aizen countered with his Rikujokoro while Kishin defended by creating a giant repulsing shield around his body. After that Kishin attacked by summoning forth a giant whirlwind with Tenran while Aizen destroyed it by generating a giant force thrust with Hado #71. They then stared in awe as both Aizen and Kishin clapped their hands together as Aizen had summoned 5 giant iron pillars to fall down on Kishin only for Kishin to generate a thick barrier wall above his head to block the fall of Aizen's spell until finally, their minds caught up to the present moment as the loud roaring of Kishin's level 88 Hado spell thundered through the air crashing into the giant transparent wall of Azien's Danku spell.
FWOOO-BAAAANG-BOOOM!
CRRSSSHHH!
A giant smoke cloud burst into the air as several of the surrounding residential towers were instantly crushed into smithereens from the residual force generated by the wind of the impact. Gin and Tosen's hair and Haori fluttered violently in the wake of the wind as the smoke cloud persisted for 5 total minutes before clearing up, letting them see the state of the battle once more. On the left far end of the room stood Kishin unharmed and on the right far end stood Aizen also completely unharmed. Neither one of them looked fazed in the slightest. A palpable tension so thick that it seemed near tangible filled the atmosphere as the air began to tremble and quake. Gin noted that it was due to Kishin and Aizen raising their reiatsu to their highest levels.
Ehhhh? That kid sure is something...to be able to match Captain Aizen toe to toe with Kido alone...how scary how scary, but his reiatsu isn't quite on Captain Aizen's level just yet…
Aizen grinned in the distance feeling his heart palpitate with excitement. For him it had been far too long since he had faced someone in combat like this. No, rather he had never once faced an opponent that was ever able to fight him so equally before. In the history of his entire life as a Shinigami he never once fought a foe where they could match him blow for blow.
Kishin noted the smile on Aizen's face and raised his eyebrow in curiosity. "What's so amusing?"
Aizen tightened his grip on his sword and simply replied, "Why you of course. I've long been wondering to what degree your strength has actually risen to, but I must say that I'm quite impressed. You continue to exceed my expectations, however...are you sure you should be fighting me so brazenly like this?"
Kishin furrowed his brow. "What do you mean?"
Aizen raised his Zanpakuto in front of him. "You already know what ability my Zanpakuto possesses do you not? Are you sure you can afford to fight me so straightforwardly like this? It takes only a mere moment for you to fall beneath its spell."
Kishin smirked and replied with confidence, "The very first time our swords made contact with one another was when I got a feel for your Zanpakuto's reiatsu. In that clash I confirmed that the surrounding reiatsu around the Central 46 Compound is the same. That means you released your Kyoka Suigetsu already even before I got here. I won't fall under its spell since you're already using its ability on the entire area. If you want to catch me in its hypnosis then you'll have to cease the use of its ability first and release it once more in front of me."
Aizen narrowed his eyes in approval and slightly nodded his head. "My my. So you already discovered that much. Impressive, Chigetsu-kun. You're right. While it is quite difficult to distinguish, it is easier for those who have yet to fall under my Kyoka Suigetsu's hypnosis to recognize its release than for those who have already fallen under its spell, but no matter. Do you really think that you stand a chance? I can simply undo the release and release it once more."
Kishin furrowed his brow. "I know. So? Are you?"
Aizen smirked in amusement. "You don't seem too bothered about that. Could it be that you...perhaps have found a way to counter my Kyoka Suigetsu?"
Kishin just shrugged his shoulders ignoring Aizen's comment. "I'm slightly surprised."
"Oh? Surprised? And why's that?"
"I'm surprised that you aren't in more of a rush to finish our battle and chase after Hinamori. Do you see me as that little of a threat? No...rather...are you that confident that you can recapture Hinamori whenever you wish?"
Aizen remained silent for several long seconds before a light chuckle escaped his lips. "Heh...Hehehe-hahaha! Chigetsu-kun, I told you that you have yet to outmaneuver me all this time, but then again I do commend you for your efforts."
Kishin felt an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach as he stared at Aizen's blatant confidence.
Why is he so calm about this? What's he planning? Don't tell me he has even more up his sleeve? How exactly will he get to Hinamori?
Aizen noted the questioning look in Kishin's eyes so he fixed his glasses and said, "Do not worry. All will be explained in time."
Kishin narrowed his eyes in caution. "And what do you mean by that?"
"Oh? Have you not figured it out yet? Well, that's fine. As I said, everything will be explained soon."
"What are you talking about? Are you saying that you're purposely staying here to fight me?"
"Very astute, Chigetsu-kun. You remind me of myself during my youth as a Shinigami. The rate of your growth, the cunningness and intellect of your mind, the strength of your reiatsu, given a few more decades and perhaps you would come to the same conclusion as I have."
"Conclusion?" Kishin questioned as he cocked his head to the side confusedly.
Aizen smirked and nodded. "That's right. If you knew what I know and were given a few more decades to reach your limits as a Shinigami then you would have realized it as well. You would have realized that there is nothing left. Only stagnation at the end of the road of your journey as a Shinigami. You would have felt lost and buried yourself in seeking knowledge. In doing so perhaps you would have discovered the eventual truth of the World. You would then seek power and a way to break the boundaries of a Shinigami and a Hollow. You would seek to reach a higher level and also wish to rectify this false world that we call reality. You too, would see that with the strength you have obtained, to seek and break away from the stagnant cycle created by that of the past."
Kishin awkwardly scratched the back of his neck having no idea what Aizen was talking about. "Alright...you lost me. You're talking with words that don't give substance. Stalling for time won't help you Aizen." He decided not to waste more words and pointed with his Zanpakuto shouting, "Hado #89: Hyoga Seiran!"
Aizen scoffed and slashed with his Zanpakuto at the oncoming giant wave of frosty ice shouting, "Hado #78: Zangerin!"
FWING!
BOOOOOOM!
A giant ringing slash of Kido erupted from Aizen's blade in a vertical strike cutting down the middle of the giant wave of Kishin's Kido forcing the icy spell to split in half and smash against the wall around Aizen. Gin and Tosen were inwardly startled and had to quickly Shunpo away as fast as they could off into the distance to avoid being caught in the aftermath of the attack.
CLANK!
The sound of the entire wall and surrounding buildings and floors of the Seijotokyorin instantly being covered in ice resonated in the grand hall. Aizen smirked and commented, "A fierce attack. You can perform Kido at even level 89 now. Most of all, it had quite a devastating effect even without the incantation. Very impressive, Chigetsu-kun. I dare say that aside from myself and the Head Captain there exists no other Captain that can rival you in skill with Kido."
Kishin clicked his tongue at his failure to restrict Aizen. It was then his eyelid twitched in shock as he heard Aizen say, "Hirameku!"
SHING!
A brilliant light flashed from Aizen's hand forcing Kishin to momentarily shut his eyes.
Swish!
"UH?!" Kishin exclaimed in shock as he felt his movements become restricted followed by the sound of Aizen's nonchalant voice, "Rikujokoro." Six yellow rods of Kido had instantly bound Kishin around the waist during his momentary distraction.
Shit!
Aizen smirked and raised his finger in the air as he said complacently, "It has been quite entertaining, Chigetsu Kishin, however I'm afraid it is time we part."
Kishin felt his heart palpitate in alarm as the reiatsu around Aizen started to emit a dark powerful glow. The light in the surrounding space also seemed as if it started to darken and glimmer out of focus. Kishin immediately knew what Aizen was about to do so he calmed his nerves and closed his eyes in focus as he began to prepare a counter spell.
Aizen's voice then echoed clear and loud in the giant hall as he began chanting both calmly and confidently, "Seeping crest of turbidity. Arrogant vessel of lunacy! Boil forth and deny! Grow numb and flicker! Disrupt sleep! Crawling queen of iron! Eternally self-destructing doll of mud!-..."
Kishin on the other hand took a deep breath and chanted at the same time, "Grand castle of time! Sieging wars unable to bring down the mountain! Stare down below with contempt. Encircle all within your grasp. Stand still and tall, be proud and arrogant! Hold disdain for both mortals and immortals alike. A fortress of unshakable might!"
"...-Unite! Repulse! Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness! Hado #90: Kurohitsugi!" As Aizen completed his chant a giant black coffin began to form and box Kishin inside.
Kishin narrowed his eyes as his view of Aizen became blocked from the black wall rising up in front of him, but in the face of Aizen's attack he simply responded, "Bakudo #90: Kin No Kyuden!"

Kishin's Zanpakuto: Sekiken Zansatsu (Blade of Crimson Carnage)
Shikai Release Command: Wash all things in a river of blood.
Shikai Appearance: A completely black colored double edged katana with blood stain marks on the bottom portion of the sharpened edge up to the tip. The hilt of the blade is obsidian black in color with 5 blood red lotus flower patterns carved on both sides. The guard of the hilt takes the shape of four obsidian colored crescent shaped moons that sparkle with a hint of crimson red. The crescent shaped guard on the top and bottom have the concavity of the moon faced towards the center of the hilt and blade while on the left and on the right side of the hilt the crescent shaped moons have the concavity facing outwards and away from the hilt and blade. The blade itself is approximately 90cm long.
Shikai Abilities:
1. Saku (Cleave): Kishin channels some blood and reiatsu into his Zanpakuto and fires out a red crescent blade at his target. The more blood he infuses the harder, stronger, and sharper his attack becomes. The more reiatsu he infuses the faster and more aura and Kido-like his attack becomes. He has the ability to change the trajectory of this technique one time after it is fired.
2. Shitsuyona Shukketsu (Relentless Bleeding): When activated his blade glows a subtle hint of crimson red. Whatever he cuts, no matter how shallow the cut is, it will grow and spread until one end of the cut loops around and meets with the other end of the cut. The wound created by this ability will continue to cause the target to bleed profusely. It will not clot or slow down. With each passing second more and more blood bleeds out faster and faster until the target bleeds to death.
3. Guren (Crimson Lotus): When Kishin cuts his target with the bloodstained edge of his katana it creates an infected wound on their body. When he activates this technique the targets blood around the site of the infected wound clumps together and forms a dense and hardened sharp crimson colored blood lotus. That blood lotus grows by continuously aggregating more and more of the targets blood tearing and puncturing the target's internal organs and ripping open their flesh and body. The blood lotus only stops growing when the target has no more blood left to offer leaving them left as only a pile of tarnished flesh and bones.
4. Nomu (Drink): This ability is both passive and active. Every time Kishin's blade comes into contact with blood, some of that blood is absorbed into his Zanpakuto and stored inside the lotus flower patterns carved on the hilt of his sword. There are a total of 10 lotus flower patterns carved on the hilt of his katana. The more blood stored inside a lotus flower the more crimson red it shines. Kishin can use the blood stored in the lotus flowers to fuel his blood based abilities like Saku or he can convert it into compatible blood and absorb it into his body to replenish his own blood loss. As long as his blade is in contact with blood, he can actively force the blade to absorb the blood at a faster rate than its normal passive state does. An advantage granted by this ability is the fact that he can reabsorb the blood he used for his Saku technique as long as the attack has yet to dissipate.
Aizen's Zanpakuto: Kyoka Suigetsu (Mirror Flower Water Moon)
Shikai Release Command: Kudakero (Shatter)
Shikai Appearance: A normal looking katana with a green colored hilt and an elongated hexagonal shaped guard looking almost like a diamond.
Shikai Abilities:
1. Kanzen Saimin (Complete/Perfect Hypnosis): By showing his target(s) the release of his Shikai he can place anyone who has seen it under hypnosis where he can control all 5 senses of the target(s) such as sight, smell, taste, hearing, and touch. The targets only need to see it once for Aizen to place them under his hypnosis whenever he releases his Shikai in the future.
Komamura's Zanpakuto: Tenken (Heavenly Retribution)
Shikai Release Command: Roar
Shikai Appearance: A normal looking katana with a rectangle shaped guard with the long sides pinched in towards the middle like a squared-off hourglass. It is decorated with a pattern of vertical lines.
Shikai Abilities:
Bankai: Kokujo Tengen Myo'o (Divine Retribution, Black Ropes of Ruination)
Bankai Appearance: Summons forth a giant black armored Samurai standing at about 100 meters tall that wields a giant blade. There is a red cloth that covers the front of its face.
Bankai Abilities:
1. The giant has tremendous physical power and mimics each and every one of Komamura's own movements.
