Chapter 86 - Tokinada's Defeat

"Awaken, Benihime!"

Kisuke released a crescent-shaped red Reiatsu that flew from his sword.

"Chikasumi no Tate (Shield of Blood Mist)!"

A hexagonal red Reiatsu shield appeared in front of Tokinada, who deliberately used Kisuke's technique to counter his attack.

Suddenly, a cloud of dust-like smoke assailed Kisuke.

Hado #58: Tenran!

A massive whirlwind dispersed the smoke.

Kisuke recognized the smoke as the ability of Rangiku's Haineko.

"Gunchō Tsurara!"

Tokinada unleashed a barrage of ice bullets, like a flock of birds.

Hado #54: Haien!

A disc-shaped flame melted all the ice bullets.

"As expected of you, you're quite skilled at Kido. But to think you can defeat me with just these Kido is too naive, isn't it?"

In an instant, a swirling wall of flames enveloped Kisuke, burning him as it spun.

Bakudo #81: Danku!

Hado #88: Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō!

After a violent explosion, Kisuke emerged from the dust and smoke, his clothes showing some burn marks.

"That was close."

Then, he grinned. "How about you try this Kido?"

Hado #99: Goryutenmetsu!

Five massive red dragons descended from the sky, roaring as they flew towards Tokinada.

The immense power of the attack moved everyone present, most of them had never imagined Kisuke to be so strong. He could even unleash Hado #99 without an incantation.

Tokinada dared not be overconfident and take the hit head-on. He had already cast Kyoka Suigetsu on Kisuke and Tessai during the previous attack's interval. Therefore, the five giant dragons at this moment were not actually attacking his true body.

However, just as he was feeling smug, the five giant dragons suddenly changed direction and attacked him directly.

Nowhere to hide!

"Shield of Blood Mist!"

However, the Reiatsu shield shattered in less than half a second, and even the scattered petals of Senbonzakura that surrounded him were instantly dispersed.

Boom!

The five giant dragons directly hit Tokinada. He fell heavily from the sky, his clothes tattered, his body covered in wounds, and a large amount of blood seeping from his clothes.

At this moment, Tokinada no longer looked like a noble.

Just when everyone thought it was over, Tokinada's injuries began to heal at a visible rate.

He slowly stood up, his face grim as he stared at Kisuke. "How did you do that?"

Kisuke asked, "Are you referring to Kyoka Suigetsu?"

"Oh my, you didn't think Kyoka Suigetsu was invincible, did you?"

Tokinada, of course, knew that Kyoka Suigetsu wasn't invincible, but among the methods of breaking it that he knew, Kisuke definitely hadn't used any of them just now.

Kisuke said mockingly, "To counter Kyoka Suigetsu, one only needs to touch its blade before it's activated, or not look at its Shikai, to avoid being hypnotized. But this only applies to Aizen."

"For anyone other than Aizen, one only needs to overpower its Reiatsu when it's activated to nullify it."

"Didn't you notice that after you made your move, my Reiatsu has always been suppressing yours?"

"Aizen's strength was never his sword, but his Reiatsu."

Tokinada didn't get angry at Kisuke's taunt. "Interesting! Now this is fun! Hahahahaha!"

At this moment, Tokinada looked like a madman, covered in blood, with blood constantly oozing from his mouth.

"Some no Mai, Tsukishiro!"

"Pierce him, Shinso!"

The recovered Tokinada launched a series of attacks.

Kisuke dodged Tsukishiro's freeze but was grazed by Shinso.

He touched his wound and said helplessly, "So many Zanpakuto abilities, it's hard to guard against them all."

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened.

Bakudo #61: Rikujokoro!

Bakudo #99: Kin!

Six light blades sealed Tokinada's movements, and leather straps and nails bound his arms.

Tokinada disdainfully looked at the various restraints on his body. "You don't think this can hold me, do you?"

No sooner had he spoken than he activated his Reiatsu, attempting to forcibly break through the Bakudo.

"Getsuga Tensho!"

"Ryusenka!"

...

Everyone launched attacks at him.

"Hahahahaha!"

Accompanying Tokinada's loud laughter, he unleashed a massive Reiatsu slash. This was the energy he had accumulated by healing his injuries through the ability of Hisagomaru.

Rumble!

The slash neutralized everyone's attacks, causing a violent explosion and leaving a gigantic crater on Sokyoku Hill.

Tokinada had already broken through the restraints of Rikujokoro, with only Kin on his hands remaining.

However, at this moment, Shunsui emerged from his shadow and sliced off his right arm, which was holding his sword.

"Kyoraku!"

Tokinada roared, glaring at Shunsui with venomous eyes.

Shunsui ignored him, quickly found his right arm, summoned Kyokotsu, and Enrakyoten was extracted from his right arm, falling into Kyokotsu's embrace, to be permanently sealed.

As Enrakyoten was sealed, Jokaku Enjo, which had trapped the others, disappeared, and everyone was freed.

Seeing this scene, Tokinada was no longer as composed as before, and he yelled at the sky, "Azashiro, how long are you going to watch the show?!"

"Azashiro Soya?!"

"You're with him?"

"Otherwise, where do you think he hid after escaping Muken without being discovered by you all?" Tokinada spoke while breaking through the Bakudo on his left arm.

"But it seems he has no intention of showing himself." Shunsui glanced around, but there was no movement.

Tokinada also realized this. "Azashiro, you despicable opportunist, do you think you can succeed alone?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he successfully broke through the Bakudo, and a roll of white cloth emerged from his left sleeve, spiraling around his body.

Sentan Hakuja!

This was the same technique Aizen, Gin, and Tosen had used for instantaneous movement before.

Shunsui asked with a grim face, "Tokinada, are you still planning to escape even like this?"

"Kyoraku, stop talking nonsense."

The white cloth gradually wrapped around Tokinada's body.

"Farewell, all you Shinigami."

"Damn it!"

Seeing Tokinada about to escape right before their eyes, everyone looked unwilling.

However, to everyone's surprise, Sentan Hakuja actually failed.

"What!?"

Tokinada was puzzled until he saw the smiling Kisuke.

"Urahara, did you do this?"

"Correct. I thoroughly researched Sentan Hakuja after Aizen and the others used it." Kisuke said in a cheerful tone.

Then, he moved in front of Tokinada, releasing Reiatsu from his fingertips to paralyze his body, preventing him from moving, and simultaneously began to plant a seal.

Tokinada still didn't give up. "Do you think it's over just because you caught me? I still have the Soul King, he will crush you."

"You should worry about yourself first."

As he spoke, Kisuke had already completed the seal.

"Captain Kyoraku, what should we do with him?"

"Urahara, hand him over to me." The freed Mayuri stared intently at Tokinada.

"That won't do, Captain Kurotsuchi. Tokinada is a major criminal, we must wait for the Captain-Commander to return to decide his fate." Shunsui interrupted.

"Tsk."

Mayuri, seeing Shunsui use Yamamoto to pressure him, said nothing more.

Then, Shunsui stated his opinion, "Let's take him to the first level of Muken and temporarily imprison him."
