Chapter 362: You Rely Too Much on Your Zanpakuto's Power
Chapter 362: You Rely Too Much on Your Zanpakuto's Power
"Absolute Void" naturally emits a chilling aura upon hitting its target, freezing them completely.
At this moment, Toshiro Kuchiki infused even more aura into Ice Wheel, further intensifying its freezing power!
In just a few seconds, a layer of frost formed on the ground, and Yecheng's body completely turned into a massive ice sculpture.
Seeing Yecheng frozen solid, Toshiro felt a sense of relief and said, "In the end, I still won."
The battle, though brief, had consumed a significant amount of Toshiro's aura.
Despite Yecheng not releasing his Zanpakuto until the last moment, Toshiro was rather displeased.
But a win is a win, and if Yecheng wanted to show off, he couldn't blame him.
"That's not entirely true. Your previous move was decent, but to think that it decided the outcome is a bit naive."
Toshiro, who had intended to leave, heard a voice from behind and turned around incredulously.
He saw Yecheng, who had been frozen in ice, now slightly curled his lips. The ice sculpture that had stood tall began to crack like shattered glass!
"This is impossible! I was clearly frozen by Ice Wheel..."
"Boom——————!"
As the cracks on the ice sculpture reached their limit, the massive ice shattered like a cannon, turning into a shower of ice chips.
Yecheng emerged from the mist, walking and stretching his stiff limbs as he spoke, "Nothing is impossible. As I said before, the Zanpakuto is merely a Shinigami's aid, not their entire strength.
Toshiro, your Zanpakuto is the strongest ice-type in the Soul Society, and its power is undeniable.
However, you rely too much on your Zanpakuto's abilities, and that is your greatest weakness and one of the main reasons for your defeat."
As Yecheng finished speaking, his body vanished from its original spot and reappeared in front of the astonished Toshiro.
Toshiro, shocked by Yecheng's Shunpo speed, instinctively raised his Zanpakuto to block, but before he could react, Ice Wheel was already sent flying by Yecheng's Zanpakuto.
After spinning in the air a few times, Ice Wheel eventually impaled itself into the ground nearby.
Before Toshiro could make his next move, he saw a large hand growing in his line of sight.
After using his right hand to send Ice Wheel flying, Yecheng directly extended his left hand to press down on Toshiro's head, pushing it towards the ground.
As Toshiro's head made contact with the ground, the surface cracked like a spider web.
Due to the intense brain concussion, Toshiro was momentarily dazed. He realized that Yecheng's attack had only just begun.
While pressing Toshiro's head towards the ground, Yecheng started running at high speed, using his hand to hold down Toshiro's head and plow a deep furrow into the ground!
After running for several dozen meters, he released his hold on Toshiro, whose eyes were slightly glazed. As Toshiro's body was about to fall, Yecheng kicked him away.
With a sonic boom, Toshiro's body flew like a missile, not only piercing through several walls of the Tenth Division barracks but also embedding deeply into the outer wall.
"That was too brutal! I didn't expect Night City's Third Seat to defeat Nijigaya's Third Seat so easily!"
"But before that, Seireitei was saying that Night City's Third Seat inherited the style of the 13th Division, and he's such a good-natured person..."
"This is too powerful! And after seeing how Night City just manhandled Nijigaya's Third Seat, will he end up bald from the stress?"
From Night City's sudden attack to Winter Lion's brutal defeat, the entire process took only a few moments.
Many were still in awe of Night City's powerful entrance, but no one expected that Nijigaya's Third Seat, who had been dominating the fight, would be defeated so swiftly.
"You idiot! I asked you to specially train Winter Lion, not to avenge your father's death and take back your wife!
It's just special training; was it necessary to beat him up like this? Quickly send Winter Lion to the Fourth Division for treatment!"
With just a few punches and kicks, Night City, the rising star of the 13th Division, had defeated the Third Seat of the 10th Division. No one dared to provoke him now.
But while the members of the 10th Division might be hesitant, the same couldn't be said for Vice-Captain Matsumoto.
Seeing Winter Lion nearly unconscious and embedded in the wall, Matsumoto didn't hold back and delivered a powerful blow to Night City's head.
The fact that Night City won didn't surprise Matsumoto; after all, she was one of the few who knew his true strength.
However, she didn't expect the gap between Night City and Winter Lion to be so vast, and she was even more surprised by Night City's reckless behavior.
Their 10th Division was currently without a captain, and as the Third Seat, Winter Lion had been a great help in managing the division's affairs. Now that he was beaten up by Night City, Matsumoto wondered if she would have to handle everything alone.
"Winter Lion is indeed a genius, but it's precisely because he's a genius that I decided to do this.
Ever since he became a Shinigami, his life has been too smooth-sailing. With the title of a genius, possessing the strongest Zanpakuto among the ice-type users, and being relatively inexperienced, it's natural for him to become arrogant and complacent.
The Soul Society is peaceful now, but that doesn't mean there won't be battles in the future. With his personality, he's bound to face setbacks sooner or later, so it's good to let him experience some hardship."
Upon hearing Night City's words, Matsumoto was stunned. She hadn't expected that Night City had such deep intentions behind his actions.
"I didn't think you would consider Winter Lion so thoroughly. I thought you were just upset about his attitude towards you earlier.
Regardless of your reasons, Winter Lion won't be able to help with division affairs today.
Therefore, as the main culprit behind all this, you must stay tonight and help me manage the 10th Division's affairs."
Questioning Night City was secondary to Matsumoto's concern for Winter Lion. In the end, she revealed her true intentions.
"The 10th Division's affairs... I, as a member of the 13th Division, am quite suitable to handle them...
Don't forget, besides the Fourth Division, I'm also skilled in healing and medical ninjutsu. I can help treat Winter Lion's injuries and ensure that your work progress won't be delayed!"
Fearing that the healing and medical ninjutsu might be too slow, and not wanting to give Matsumoto an excuse to slack off, Night City directly released his Zanpakuto, Beyond.
He then used a Short Blade Dash to heal Winter Lion's severe injuries, and soon, Winter Lion fully recovered in front of the shocked members of the 10th Division.
