I'm in Bleach, starting with Unlimited Blade Works.

The Kasumi clan, possessing the Baku-yō-ji sword, has consistently maintained a strength of over twenty seated officials.

Such a powerful family actually faced an invasion? And needed the Shinigami of the Gotei 13 to come to its rescue?

Just kidding?

However, despite her doubts, Erin remained completely clear-headed.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

As Erin advanced, he was able to sense the spiritual pressure of the combatants ahead.

There, dozens of people with extremely chaotic spiritual pressure were fighting against someone whose spiritual pressure was slightly explosive.

Judging from what Ailin sensed, the side with more people was actually at a disadvantage.

In addition, there are four or five other battlefields, where multiple people with chaotic spiritual pressure are besieging those with pure spiritual pressure.

However, on other battlefields, those with chaotic spiritual pressure have the upper hand.

"Are these chaotic spiritual pressures from the Kasumi clan's assassins wielding the Baku sword?"

The reason why the Baku-yōtō was superseded by Nimaiya Oetsu's Zanpakutō is that the upper limit of the Baku-yōtō was lower than that of the Zanpakutō.

Secondly, the Tapir Blade absorbs spiritual pressure without any safety valve.

In battle, the user of the Baku Yao Blade can channel their spiritual pressure into the blade to gain even greater power.

However, when the user's spiritual pressure is insufficient, they will be completely devoured by the Baku Yao Blade.

Using the Tapir Blade requires immense courage.

Generally speaking, those in the Kasumi clan who use the Baku-yō-dō are all "death warriors" trained by themselves.

Their motto is "A person can die, but a knife cannot be lost."

If anyone dies in battle, the Mo Yao sword they used will be collected by other assassins.

The Kasumi family's tapir sword has never been lost since it was first forged.

"Whizzing……"

A dozen or so Grim Reapers dressed as ninjas followed behind Erin.

However, soon these Grim Reapers split into several small teams and rushed to several battlefields.

Those with some strength rushed to the most intense battleground.

Meanwhile, Erin and the other three headed to one of the smaller battlefields.

Judging from the fluctuations in spiritual pressure, even if the people fighting over there are stronger than me, they aren't much stronger and are still within my range of ability to handle.

On the main battlefield, based on the strength this person has shown so far, he is definitely at the vice-captain level.

But Erin suspected that the person being besieged hadn't used his full strength yet.

After all, how could someone who dares to cause trouble for the Kasumioji family only have this much strength?

Erin wouldn't be surprised if that person used Bankai in a moment.

Chapter 4 First Encounter with Bankai

"Whoosh!"

At the speed of Erin and his group, they arrived at a small battlefield in just a few dozen seconds.

In this small battlefield, five people wielding strange weapons are besieging a Shinigami dressed in a Shinigami uniform.

The reason why the weapons of the five attackers were considered strange was that the hilts of their swords did not have guards, but rather something resembling octopus tentacles.

These octopus tentacles seemed to be alive, winding along the right hand of these people and inserting into their arms.

The reason Erin sensed their spiritual pressure was chaotic was because part of their spiritual pressure was emanating from the swords in their hands.

Mo Yao Dao!

The Grim Reaper they were besieging was wielding a long spear.

The weapons of the Shinigami are basically Zanpakuto.

However, each Shinigami can fuse their soul with Asauchi through "Tozen" to create their own unique Zanpakuto.

By calling out the name of their Zanpakuto, Shinigami can obtain the Zanpakuto's power.

Typically, the shape and abilities of a Zanpakuto change after it is released.

Clearly, this Shinigami is a powerful being capable of unleashing his Zanpakuto.

Just by watching how a bolt of lightning shot out from the tip of his spear each time he swung it, knocking down the assassins who were attacking him, one could tell just how powerful this Grim Reaper was.

However, these defeated assassins quickly recover and stand up again after channeling their spiritual pressure into the Baku-yōtō in their hands, and then gang up on the Grim Reaper.

"Are you reinforcements from the Gotei 13? Please assist us in capturing this criminal."

Upon seeing the arrival of Erin and his group, one of the assassins immediately asked Erin and his group for help.

Although they saw that their opponent was a fellow Grim Reaper, the mission assigned to the Execution Army was to assist the Kasumioji family in suppressing the attackers.

Therefore, Erin and the others had no choice but to draw their Zanpakuto and attack the Shinigami.

Upon seeing Erin and the others, the Grim Reaper's movements noticeably paused.

However, after Erin and the others joined the battle, he did not hold back.

The young Death God brandished his spear, deflecting the attacks from Erin and his companions.

Feeling the force of the young man's Death Spear, Erin shuddered. A powerful force traveled through the spear, causing Erin's body to involuntarily retreat.

"not good!"

Just as he was knocked back, Erin saw a flash of blue light.

At that moment, Erin disregarded everything else and quickly stretched out his free left hand in front of him, with the back of his hand facing outwards.

"The Eighth Binding Path - Rebuke!"

A transparent light appeared in front of Erin's hand, and the attack came the next moment.

After repelling the attacking Grim Reaper, the young Grim Reaper let out a loud shout, and blue lightning flashed on his spear.

"Lightning strike!"

"boom!"

As the young Death God swung his weapon, the bolt of lightning instantly transformed into dozens of bolts of lightning, striking everyone present.

"boom!"

The others were instantly and severely injured by this bolt of lightning.

On Erin's side, because she released the Eighth Binding Spell in advance, she blocked the lightning for a moment before the light barrier was shattered by the lightning.

"Bah!"

In the instant that the lightning was blocked by the Eighth Binding Spell, Erin made his own response.

"projection--"

"Sword and shield!"

Blue spiritual energy condensed before Erin, and more than a dozen longswords materialized in front of him, forming a shield made of swords.

Any weapon that Erin possesses in Unlimited Blade Works can be projected outwards by Erin using only a small amount of spiritual energy.

However, since it is only a projection of the weapon in Unlimited Blade Works, its level is one level lower than the "prototype" in Unlimited Blade Works.

"Oh!"

The lightning collided with the sword and shield, and the power of the lightning that broke through one of the binding spells was somewhat diminished. The remaining power did not completely dissipate until it shattered most of Erin's sword and shield.

Using that force, Erin retreated a short distance and stood firmly on his feet.

"Ok?"

Seeing that only Erin hadn't been defeated by him, the young Shinigami wanted to attack Erin. However, the Shinigami of the Kasumi clan, thanks to the power of the Baku sword, quickly recovered and joined the attack on him.

Upon seeing this, Erin did not rush to join the attack. Instead, he went to his teammates' side, placed his hands on one of their bodies, and released blue light.

Answer!

Among Erin's many Zanpakuto, there are several Executioners who are proficient in the Reanimation System.

Having absorbed their experience, Erin's ability to return to the source was now in no way inferior to anyone else's.

"Thanks, brother. I'll treat you to a drink after this mission is over."

"Okay, brother, you go and hold them off for a bit, then I'll go treat the other brothers."

"it is good."

After treating the other Grim Reapers, Erin became the field medic on this small battlefield.

The assassins from the Xia Dalu family's area have been restored by the Baku Yao Dao.

Erin also returned to support his colleagues from the Second Division's Execution Unit after he was injured.

A dozen minutes later, three of the Kasumi clan's assassins were killed, and three of the five members from the Second Division were seriously injured, greatly reducing their combat strength.

However, this young Grim Reaper is also nearing the end of his rope.

"kill!"

Another round of attacks ensued. The spiritual pressure emanating from each of the Kasumi clan's assassins materialized into tangible light, appearing around them. The tentacles of the Baku-yō-ji swords in their hands had already reached their necks and below their chests.

In this state, the strength of the Tapir Blade Assassin, while not comparable to that of the Young Death God, is not far off.

Soon, several more wounds appeared on the young Grim Reaper's body.

Just as the young Grim Reaper was about to give up, Erin suddenly felt a powerful spiritual pressure rushing towards him. Without hesitation, Erin disregarded the fact that he hadn't yet healed the three seriously wounded, kicked one of the wounded onto his back, then picked up one in each hand and quickly moved away from the battlefield.

"boom!"

In the distance, a powerful flame struck, and a massive explosion blasted Erin and the others away.

"puff……"
