(Ryoto's pov)
I won against Yoruichi, and I'm going to rub it in her face for at least a decade, which isn't a lot in retrospect. I'm rciful, after all.
After a short break, Kisuke and I went into our positions but before that.
"Kisuke, could you please not lay down traps so obviously in front of ? I didn't say anything when you did this with Rin, but I'm not going to stay quiet now."
"Can't bla a guy for trying."
He shrugged his shoulder and disabled the Kido he laid beforehand. In the background, I could hear Rin screaming. "What did he say!!!" but I ignored it for now.
I was ready in my position and activated my Shikai imdiately.
"Pierce through the heavens, Zangetsu!"
Now how should I approach this? I won't use 'prediction calculation' for now because I don't want to be too reliant on it since its tir is too short to use it in every fight and/or training, and I want to have at least so of its ti left in case of ergency.
Kisuke, from what I noticed, is already very versatile with his fighting style. Short and dium range is his forte, but he could fight at longer distances. The sa as , so I don't have an advantage here.
How about Kido? That he outclassed in. I have confidence in my Hakuda and Zanjutsu. I also have Shunko to work with.
We'll need to see how it goes.
Before I rushed to Kisuke I wrapped the end of the cloth to my wrist so I could use it in a more creative and flexible way. Then I ran up to Kisuke while being careful about any traps that I may have overlooked. While the possibility is low, it's Kisuke we're talking about, so we never know.
Without setting off any traps, I clashed swords with him. I could probably beat him in a pure strength contest, but winning won't be easy.
As the sparks were flying because of the clash, both of us let go of our Zanpakutos with one of our hands and used Kido.
""Hado #31 Shakkaho!""
The red energy of our attack collided and exploded, pushing both of us in the process.
Not wanting to give Kisuke any ti to plan, I threw Zangetsu at him, which was deflected, but I suspected that much so I was already running to him with Shunko activated, increasing my speed.
After pulling Zangetsu back, I threw him back in the air above and used Shunpo to appear behind Kisuke. Without missing my chance, my fist was about to hit his body, but it was blocked by his Zanpakuto. I then pulled back Zangetsu again.
Kisuke jumped over the incoming sword and, at the sa ti, pointed at with two of his fingers.
"Hado #4 Byakurai!"
Thankfully Zangetsu ca back in ti, and I could use him as a shield, but Kisuke wasn't finished.
"Bakudo #21 Sekienton!"
Kisuke created a burst of red smoke which obstructed my vision. He even hid his Reiatsu so I couldn't sense him. It would be a problem if I didn't have a solution to this problem.
I deactivated my Shikai.
"Hado #58 Tehran!"
As I put Zangetsu levitating in front of , I hit it gently to start it spinning like a fan. When I stopped it, I created a widening tornado-like blast blowing all the smoke away, but Kisuke wasn't in front of anymore.
I blocked a slash coming from behind and imdiately did a spinning kick to kick him away. It was blocked by Benihi and Urahara was pushed back a few ters.
Fighting him was exhausting ntally. Kisuke is soone who has a plan for his failed plan, which was plan Z for his plan Z. That's the kind of guy Kisuke is. Maybe not now because he beca like this because of Aizen's betrayal, but he is still very calculating. That's why I can't give him ti to think.
(E/D: I would love to see Kisuke do the "Keikaku dori~" or even Ryoto doing it and in the future, Aizen does it to him again. Double Emotion damage!)
I rushed again, but with the first step, the ground started glowing, and I already knew what had happened. I don't even know when he used Kido to lay this trap, but I quickly Shunpoed my way out to avoid the explosion.
"*Whistle* I thought that one got you."
"You need to work on the activation speed."
"I know, I'm still trying to figure out how to do it without losing the power of the explosion, but for now, it's the best I have."
"Then it would be only fair of to do my best as well."
With this, I activated 'prediction calculation'.
---
It's the first ti I've been in this situation. While 'prediction calculation' works, it never shows one solution. In the beginning, it did, but after a few exchanges, sohow, Kisuke made moves that always had at least two outcos. I don't know how but he does it.
---
My 'prediction calculation' is already activated for five minutes, but there still isn't a winner. We managed to injure each other, but nothing major, just minor cuts or burns.
It's the first ti it happened with an opponent of similar strength. Yoruichi and I are also at a similar level, but I ended our spar quickly. Kisuke, on the other hand, adapted and sohow countered it. Not entirely, mind you but still.
I couldn't lose this opportunity to train this ability to the limits.
---
Ten minutes had already passed, and I opened my eyes to use them to their fullest. I didn't plan on doing it, but it was the optimal thing to do according to my ability, and I was in the zone. The only thing on my mind was to defeat my opponent. Not kill, but defeat. I still was sohow conscious, after all.
---
Twenty minutes have passed. We have already used most of our cards. We fought using both Bakudo and Hado, Hakuda, Zanjutsu, and Hoho, and on my side, my Spider-man physique. Everything was used, and both of us were already tired, but neither of us planned on giving up. I didn't take Kisuke for a stubborn type. Maybe he is just curious about my abilities. I even used illusions in this sparring match, but at most, it distracted him slightly as I couldn't use them too much because of my restrictions.
We are currently in a standoff.
"Hey, Kisuke... How about we end this with one final attack? Otherwise... I feel like we'll be stuck here for a while." I was breathing heavily.
"Sure... I don't mind." And Kisuke was the sa.
I already deactivated 'prediction calculation' and raised Zangetsu in his Shikai form, and started gathering Reiatsu.
Kisuke, on the other hand, was ready to slash from below.
"Getsuga..."
"Sing..."
(E/D: Excalibur...
Both of us said the first part of our attack quietly and calmly just to yell at the top of our lungs with everything we got.
"...TENSHOU!!!"
"...BENIHIMIE!!!"
(MORGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
We released our attacks.
