Arhellai woke up early in the morning, knowing that he had some serious thing to do. He was in need of some serious training, as he was Captain, and he couldn´t keep on being one without keeping strong. For that reason, Arhellai decided to devote one whole day to training. There were no issues there, as Arhellai easily slipped out of his Squad´s barracks, knowing that they will manage without him... for as long as they keep their hand off his booze. But, Arhellai had another issue. Training by himself never gave the results as training with somebody else. But Arhellai was wondering who could he ask to train together.
Benkei, perhaps? Oh wait, he is on leave right now. Benkei was one of people closest to Arhellai, and Arhellai was often going out to drink with him. Benkei was cool guy, and the two of them got along just fine. Hm, what about Okusa? No way, he destroyed the whole area last time. Okusa was nuts, and everybody knew it. What about Ranmyaku? Nah, he always wants heat, and I hate it. After going through all of those names, Arhellai realized he was out of his major candidates. Nami was one of few people who he could think of at the moment, but there was just no way that he would train with her. She gave Arhelai creeps. But then Arhellai got an idea. He went out, and took his usual daily stroll through Eastern Rukongai, eventually leaving it, and reaching one big meadow, with big oak in the corner of it. Arhellai smiled. That was the place where he was going to train. So he sat under the oak, and placed his Zanpakutou in front of him. Actually, Arhellai placed it incredibly carefully, so the Katana was standing on it´s tip, but it was standing perfectly straight. Even if wind blew, there was no way the katana would fall. But Arhellai already knew that. He simply concentrated, ready to dive into his inner world to face the best possible training partner.
Yup, that´s right. Arhellai planned to train with his Zanpakutou. Of course, it was far less dangerous and devastating to do that in his inner world. Plus, Maikai no Hanshu had advantage in there, making things even more challenging. So, as soon as Arhellai appeared inside of his inner world, Arhellai felt a bit uncomfortable, but on his own. He disliked his Zanpakutou´s ability, and he certainly did not like his inner world. It resembled Hell too much. But there was no time for sightseeing. Like there was something to see. Bloody red sky, dead trees, endless swamp, no solid ground. Luckily, Arhellai could stand on the air ground, thus evading all that water and mud. Then Arhellai heard steps behind him. Small guy, in white cloak, with blonde hair, approached him. He had a katana in his hand, but slightly longer and with different handle and guard than the one Arhellai used. It was not the Shikai form. It was just sealed form his Zanpakutou spirit used. Arhellai laughed: "Well, Meikai, you know why I´m here. Shall we begin?"
With a smile on his face, Meikai no Hanshu attacked Arhellai. The blow was fast, and very, very strong. Despite his child-like appearance, Meikai no Hanshu was vastly powerful. But Arhellai was too experienced and well versed in swordplay. He easily defended, blocking blow, and then deflecting the blade, giving himself enough of space to use Kido. Low-level Kido, but very effective one. "Byakurai!" Big lightning beam flew towards Meikai no Hanshu, but he used Shunpo ho get behind Arhellai, forcing him to use his own to dodge a slash that would kill him. Arhellai was ready for that. He knew too well that Meikai no Hanshu could use Shunpo. He used it when they fought on that night, some 340 years ago. it was 338 year ago exactly, when Arhellai one night faced Meikai no Hanshu in order to obtain Bankai. The he saw that Meikai no Hanshu can use Shunpo. Arhellai didn´t knew whether can other Zanpakutou spirits use Shunpo. Meikai no Hanshu could, and that was all that he cared for.
So, when he used his own Shunpo, Arhellai immediately turned back, just in time to block another powerful slash. He smiled. "You really think that I would fall to that cheap trick. if i recall right, it didn´t work some 340 years ago, so why should it work now?" Arhellai enjoyed teasing his Zanpakutou. he knew that Meikai no Hanshu would get enraged, and that would make this even more challenging. He was right. Meikai no Hanshu got enraged. And that meant only one thing. He was about to use Shikai powers. With a great surge of Reiatsu, katana in his hands turned into a black sword, more like saber, but with whip attached. Actually, the look was pretty much like something that aliens made.
The thing is, Arhellai was now facing a serious challenge. He was not gonna use Shikai, but Meikai no Hanshu was using it. Things were going to get really ugly here. Arhellai strengthened his grip on the sword, knowing that Meikai no Hanshu won´t go easy on him. And he was right. Meikai no Hanshu immediately attacked, swinging his sword like he was some beast. He was on rampage, and Arhellai was having trouble in defending. He managed to block twice, and even parry once, but as soon as he realized that this way of fighting is not going to work, Arhellai used Shunpo to give himself some distance. Meikai no Hanshu smiled: "You do realize you need to use it, right? Well, I will give you time to do it. Summon me. Accept my power. You won´t survive this "training" of yours without it."
Arhellai knew his Zanpakutou was right, and he hated him for that. "I hate when you make me do this. Unleash the apocalypse upon the world, and reduce it to rubble and ruins. Bring darkness and despair upon the living, Meikai no Hanshu!" Immediately, the katana in Arhellai´s hands changed, looking identical to the weapon Meikai no Hanshu held. But Arhellai had a different way of using it. He wrapped the whip around his hand, and then said: "Phlegheton!" Immediately, Arhellai´s sword became shrouded in black flames. The air itself started to disintegrate as it came in contact with the flames. After that, Arhellai immediately rushed towards Meikai no Hanshu, swinging his sword with all of his strength. he hoped to end this right here, and right now. But, it did not work. Why? Simply because Meikai no Hanshu dodged, and attacked him for his left. Arhellai, having no other choice, dodged too. Then Meikai no Hanshu spoke one word: "Styx." Immediately, his power tripled, as the whip wrapped around his hand. Well, it was pretty unfair. Unlike Arhellai, Meikai no Hanshu had no need to speak long ass initiation phrase, nor he was limited by the number of blows.
Meikai no Hanshu shot forward, slashing at Arhellai. His speed was magnified, and because of his enhanced strength, Arhellai had no means of getting unharmed other than Shunpo. He positioned himself behind Meikai no Hanshu, and raised his left hand. "Raikoho!" Arhellai used Kido, shooting a huge wave of yellow energy towards Meikai no Hanshu. However, it did not work, as Meikai no Hanshu turned and deflected it barehanded. But, it served it´s purpose. How come? Simply, Arhellai needed to keep Meikai no Hanshu in one place for enough time to use another Kido. While Meikai no Hanshu was still deflecting Raikoho, Arhellai used even more powerful one. "Kurohitsugi!" when Meikai no Hanshu deflected Raikoho, he would find Kurohitsugi forming around him. Well, it did formed around him, and worked successfuly, or at least it seemed so.
However, Meikai no Hanshu just smiled when Kurohitsugi materialized around him and closed. With single swing of his sword, he did not only broke the Kido, but created massive wind blowing towards Arhellai. Arhellai, was surprised as Meikai no Hanshu broke his Kido, and immediately dodged from the wind, just as a precaution. He however had no idea that Meikai no Hanshu followed him, appearing behind him, and kicking him with a single, yet powerful kick. It was strong enough not to only send Arhellai flying onto the ground (like there was any) but also to pretty much shake up Arhellai´s internal organs. He was lucky though, as he missed all trees and landed in the mud, coughing and trying to catch his breath.
Arhellai had no idea what to do now. His only elaborate plan failed, and he had to think something else, and do that fast. well, he thought of something. After slightly recovering, Arhellai pointed his index finger at Meikai no Hanshu. There was only one shot, one opportunity to do it. "Byakurai!" A big bolt of lighting fired of Arhellai´s finger, just giving him what he needed. Lighting bold was not over yet, and still, another spell was fired off, this time from palm of the same hand. "Sokatsui!" And blast of blues energy was fired off towards Meikai no Hanshu. Meikai no Hanshu easily deflected Byakurai, but did not stand there, waiting for Sokatsui. He used Shunpo to appear in front of Arhellai, hoping to cut him in two with a single swing of his sword. But, Arhellai knew his own Zanpakutou too well. The instant Meikai no Hanshu used Shunpo, Arhellai used his own.
He appeared above Maikai no Hanshu, and charged two Kido simultaneously. And then fired them off.
Benkei, perhaps? Oh wait, he is on leave right now. Benkei was one of people closest to Arhellai, and Arhellai was often going out to drink with him. Benkei was cool guy, and the two of them got along just fine. Hm, what about Okusa? No way, he destroyed the whole area last time. Okusa was nuts, and everybody knew it. What about Ranmyaku?
