For someone who's supposed to be my Zanpakuto, you lack the basic understanding of what beauty really is!
What?!
Wanna fight?
Hey! When we're done, I'm gonna force you to surrender to me.
Yeah? Well, good luck making that happen.
Rahhhh!!!
Oof!
Oh, great. Knocked down the wrong guy.
No big deal. It's just Marechiyo.
Besides, I never expected to find Zanpakuto here. Perfect. Now, you'll see the results from my training.
I sure have missed you, partner!
What are you saying? Your weapon...
That's right. I'm Hozukimaru!
You're really Hozukimaru?
Wanna confirm it?
All right. Then, why don't we do "that?" You seem game.
If you're actually Hozukimaru, then you'll be able to keep up with me when we go for it.
Now, I see. Let's go.
Let's do it!
Luck, luck, luck!
Luh-Luck, luck!
Luck, luck, luck! Luuuuck!
What were you doing just now?
That was my big Lucky Dance!
Oh, just forget it. Anyway, your dancing was perfect.
Proving without a doubt that you are Hozukimaru.
This is perfect. After I defeat you, all of my Zanpakuto power will once again be mine to use.
You think you can defeat me?
I'll give it a shot. Since you are my Zanpakuto, I expect you know my rules for fighting, right?
Why, of course. Battles are always fought one-on-one.
Right, and whoever dies has no regrets!
2. After the battle
4 linesWhat's wrong with you? There's no way my Zanpakuto would be in a battle and be this weak!
Hah! Don't be so quick to judge! This battle has only just begun!
This is where the real fight starts!
Heh. In that case, I should start getting more serious!
