Isane

I don't know who or what you are, but get away from that bed!

Gremmy

You're worried about these captains, aren't you? Well don't be. I already killed them.

Yachiru

My arm... What'd you do?

Gremmy

Imagine this. What if the bones in your arm were made of cookies? Now, I bet you're thinking they'd be crushed to bits.

And now you're thinking, "If the bones in my arm are made of cookies, maybe the rest of my bones are made of cookies, too."

In this world, the greatest power of all is the power of imagination. And everything I imagine...becomes reality.

Kenpachi

What the hell? I felt Yachiru's Spiritual Pressure getting wobbly, so I came to see what the trouble was. Don't tell me it's all because of this little squirt.

Isane

C-Captain Zaraki, then so, uhh... Captain Unohana, is she...?

Kenpachi

She's dead.

Isane

I... I see.

Kenpachi

I'm the one who killed her. And if you hate me for that, I wouldn't blame you.

Isane

Not at all. If she had to die, I'm glad it was you. So that means it's you...

...who succeeds to Captain Unohana's title.

Kenpachi

Yeah. That's right.

Gremmy

Hmm. So this is Kenpachi Zaraki, huh? You seem strong. You're just as I imagined.

2. After the battle

10 lines
Gremmy

There, I've set the stage for you. After all, you are the great Kenpachi Zaraki. You deserve to play your part on a grand stage.

Kenpachi

What is all this, some kind of spell or something?

Gremmy

It is neither a spell nor an illusion. It's real.

I am Gremmy, "The Visionary" who turns fantasy into reality.

You know, you're actually very lucky that you get to fight me, because I think you'll find that of all the Stern Ritters, I am the strongest.

You see what I did just now? By simply imagining that my body was stronger than steel, I made it so, and therefore impervious...

Kenpachi

Come on. If you'd said you were gonna make yourself stronger than steel, then it wouldn't have taken me two blows of my sword to bring you down.

Hey, what's with that look? Did you really think I couldn't cut you?

Listen, little man... That puny imagination of yours can't dream up anything that I can't cut down. Y'know why?

Because I'm Kenpachi.
