"Is this... the power of the Rinnegan?!"
Nana felt a faint energy coming from his eyes.
It was like his vision had improved, making everything in front of him seem to slow down.
His control over Susanoo—the giant armored warrior—also became much stronger. With just a thought, the broken Susanoo was restored back to its full form.
At the same time, he gained many new abilities.
Heavenly Way!
Hungry Kidō!
Human Way!
Animal Way!
Asura Way!
Hell Way!
It seemed that by awakening the Rinnegan, Nana had obtained the powers of the Six Paths. But that wasn't all—he had some other powers as well.
At that moment, Nana had a sudden realization.
The power of the Hollow inside him could awaken other abilities, like new eye techniques similar to the Mangekyō Sharingan.
The power of the Shinigami could help his eyes evolve, like the Mangekyō Sharingan transforming into the Rinnegan.
"So that's how it is... No wonder Orihime Inoue and the others became so much stronger when they went to Hueco Mundo."
"So you have to use your body to absorb these powers..."
With this understanding, Nana decided to release Susanoo.
"Hahaha! Has it gotten even stronger?!"
Zaraki Kenpachi, noticing Nana's increased Reiatsu (spiritual pressure), became even more excited for the fight.
As Zaraki Kenpachi rushed toward him, Nana quickly pointed his right hand at his chest and said calmly:
"Heavenly Way: Shinra Tensei!"
Suddenly, an invisible force burst out from Nana's hand.
A pale white glow spread from his five fingers.
"Boom!"
Zaraki Kenpachi was hit like lightning. His body flew backward like a meteor, smashing through hundreds of walls before finally stopping.
Dust and debris flew everywhere.
The solid ground cracked and formed a ditch where Zaraki landed.
The surrounding Shinigami and captains were stunned.
They couldn't understand why Zaraki Kenpachi, who was evenly matched with Nana before, was suddenly thrown hundreds of meters away so easily.
"There's something strange about that young man's eyes..." Kyoraku Shunsui said seriously while staring at Nana.
His own eyes changed from scarlet to lavender, but seeing Nana's eyes made him feel uneasy.
"His Reiatsu has also increased a lot. He's no longer weaker than Captain Unohana Retsu," Jūshirō Ukitake said deeply.
Unohana Retsu was famous for having terrifyingly strong Reiatsu.
With the change in Nana's eyes, his spiritual pressure grew so much that even he felt pressured.
"Ugh!"
Zaraki Kenpachi spat blood and struggled to stand up from the rubble.
Though seriously injured, his expression was still fierce.
His Reiatsu grew even stronger because of his anger.
"Hahaha! Now this is what fighting is all about..." Nana thought, smiling as Zaraki stood again.
Nana's body floated up like a dark meteor.
"Is this the power of Tiandao?" he wondered.
When he got close to Zaraki again, Nana stretched out his right hand and said:
"Universal Pull!"
This time, an invisible gravitational force pulled Zaraki toward him.
"Huh!?" Zaraki's face changed as he felt himself being pulled and almost unable to resist.
Instead of fighting the pull, Zaraki gave up resisting and used the force to attack Nana.
When Zaraki got close, Nana said:
"Shura Dao!"
Suddenly, two mechanical arms appeared on Nana's shoulders.
One grabbed Zaraki's wrist.
The other grabbed his neck.
Zaraki swung his soul-slashing sword, but it clanged against the mechanical arm.
The arm was cut open, showing metal parts inside.
This was the power of Shurado, which lets Nana summon mechanical weapons from another world.
Seeing Zaraki still trying to resist, Nana calmly stretched out his right hand and said:
"Hungry Kidō!"
An invisible, devouring force suddenly burst out.
The spiritual energy boiling inside Zaraki Kenpachi's body unexpectedly flowed into Nanaya's hand without control. It was sucked in by the force coming from his right hand.
In just a few seconds, the intense Reiatsu in Zaraki's body weakened drastically.
"My spiritual power..." Zaraki Kenpachi couldn't believe it.
The spiritual energy inside him, which was hard to control even with the help of the 12th Division's tools, was completely drained in seconds.
Spiritual power is the most important strength for a Shinigami. Losing it is almost like losing all their fighting ability.
Nanaya released his hand, and Zaraki's body fell to the ground with a heavy thud.
He wanted to get up and fight again, but his body was badly injured, and without his spiritual power, he felt dizzy and weak.
"You're not strong enough!" Qiye shook his head slightly. "Sister Hualie was right—you're too weak now."
Zaraki Kenpachi had almost instinctively held back his real strength to enjoy the fight more, and even he forgot how powerful he truly was.
This was also why, in the original story, Kenpachi was defeated by Kurosaki Ichigo.
Only after fighting continuously could Zaraki regain his full strength.
But Qiye didn't want to help him get stronger again.
After dealing with Zaraki Kenpachi, Qiye rubbed his hair and looked at Unohana Retsu with a tired expression.
"Sister Hua, are you calm now?!"
But instead of calming down, Unohana Retsu seemed even more excited and wild.
There was a fierce fire in her beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to devour Qiye.
"Qianye-kun, you're amazing. You can still get stronger at this level. You're really the best. You can join me to find the most exciting fun…"
Swallowing her saliva quickly, Unohana attacked with her blade.
Qianye exhaled and raised his right hand.
"Then I have no choice. Let me seal you first!"
At that moment, a large amount of spiritual power gathered in Qianye's hand and formed a black sphere. He slowly sent it up into the sky.
"Planetary Devastation!"
Qianye said the name of his move softly.
The surrounding Shinigami looked confused, staring at the small black ball in the sky.
Compared to the powerful abilities Qianye had just shown, this black ball seemed weak and didn't show any visible power.
Unohana Retsu was also confused but quickly ignored it and rushed in with her knife.
Qianye didn't care. He drew his soul-slaying sword, stepped firmly on the ground, and faced Unohana's sword directly.
For a moment, swords and shadows flashed wildly.
Their soul-slaying swords clashed again and again, each strike making loud noises and sparks flying everywhere.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Nanaya added the power of Shinra Tensei to his sword strikes, so every swing released a powerful repulsive force.
Even though Nanaya had only copied about 8,000 sword techniques, he was actually holding back Unohana Retsu.
After one sword clash,
"Ah!!!" Unohana let out a satisfied sound. The fight brought her a pleasure beyond anything else.
"It's so beautiful, totally different from those two guys. This is the fun I've been looking for…"
"Nana, let me teach you properly!"
"Your sword skills are still too rough. After my training, you'll definitely get stronger, and maybe you can even kill..."
Unohana made a strange, almost crazy sound.
Nanaya's mouth twitched.
He had seen how deeply Unohana Retsu craved fighting.
She loved the thrill of battle, pain, and suffering.
Even death.
For her, if she could find the joy of fighting, she wouldn't hesitate to die.
But Nanaya wasn't interested in killing her.
Thinking this, Qiye looked up and noticed the black ball in the sky slowly starting to show its true power.
The stones on the ground began shaking.
Bigger stones tilted to one side, as if being pulled by a force in the sky.
The surrounding Shinigami looked down in surprise and saw the edges of their clothes starting to lift.
The lighter fabric floated upward.
It flew toward the black ball in the sky, which now had a layer of stones surrounding it and was growing larger.
Gradually, even the heavier stones began to be pulled up by the ball's gravity.
This made many Shinigami's faces change with shock because their bodies felt like they were slowly lifting off the ground.
"Wait, look at the sky! When did that black ball get so big!?" a Shinigami shouted, pointing upward in disbelief.
