Nanao

I didn't think there were Zanpakutos that could use the powers of other Zanpakutos.

Shunsui

But I suppose we can assume it can't use all of the powers freely.

An ability that strong must have some restrictions on it.

Nanao

Is that...Haineko?!

Halibel

Cascada!

I remember that ability.

Was that the one similar to Aaroniero's Glotoneria?

Shinji

What the heck? Are those strong Spiritual Pressures up there Kenpachi and Hikone?

Shunsui

Captain Hirako, you're safe after all.

Shinji

Of course I am. But anyway, was that Rangiku's Haineko I just saw?

Shunsui

I'll get right to the point. That's Tokinada Tsunayashiro over there, and his Zanpakuto has the ability to copy other Zanpakutos' powers.

Shinji

Seriously? That's a troublesome thing he's brought out.

Kensei

Shinji, if he were to use Sakanade's ability, could you also use it and reverse us back?

Shinji

Don't say that so lightly. If he can even copy my Bankai, it'd be no laughing matter. I'd try to figure out something, though.

I don't think anyone other than me could use Sakanade, though.

(If this Tokinada guy is on the same level as Aizen, it's checkmate.)

Tokinada

All right then. This will be my first time fighting against such a formidable group.

2. After the battle

Tokinada

............

Nanao

Ryujin Jakka!

Shunsui

That's a relief.

That heat was no match for Old Man Yama's. I guess it can be a good or bad thing that it's dependent on the user's Spiritual Pressure.

Wouldn't it have been better to let that child Hikone hold on to that Zanpakuto?

Tokinada

He is too honest. If he held it, he would only concentrate on one thing like an Engetsu or a Hyorinmaru, and that would be it.

Shunsui

(The Tsunayashiro Clan's treasured sword, huh? I see why they boasted about how it could rule history.)

(If someone with Old Man Yama or Aizen's Spiritual Pressure wielded something like that...)

(Aizen?)

............

Shunsui

(No... It can't be!)

Tokinada

Bakudo 21: Sekienton!

............

Shunsui

Don't look at that attack! Close your eyes!

*Crack*
