Chapter 303: The Champion Must Be Me! (Ch 303)

“Battle is not just a test of strength.”
“More than that, it is a test of the determination of both sides.”
“People without determination, even if they have power, will hesitate at the critical moment, worry about gains and losses, and play a good hand of cards badly.”
“Those who are determined can often seize that crucial opportunity, turn defeat into victory, and move towards success!”
Aoi Seiji stood on the ring, his eyes slightly closed, his hand gently placed on his Zanpakutō.
He is the most promising Shinigami of the Aoi family. Although he did not join the Gotei 13, his strength is by no means weaker than those professional players.
Compared with those gods of death who are only fighting for fame, he is fighting for the revitalization of his family. The weight he carries on his shoulders is on a different level!
Looking at the young man standing on the other side of the ring, smiling like a fox, Aoi Xingsi gave a cold look.
“Young man, listen to my advice. This fight is not for you to get involved in.”
“This is a battle that will determine the future of Seireitei for the next hundred years, or even the pattern of the previous year. A swordsman like you will not understand.”
The referee outside the court raised his hand:
“The battle begins!!”
Aoi Xingsi continued: “Retreat now, I can be…”
Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly surprised to see that Ichimaru Gin’s expression changed.
The last second, he still had a gentle and cunning smile, like a fox.
Now, his eyes suddenly opened wide, bloodshot, and murderous intent boiling!
“Shoot him, sniper gun!!”
Gin Ichimaru drew out his Zanpakutō and pointed it at Aoi Seiji.
The latter didn’t even have the chance to react as he was hit directly in the chest by the knife. His feet left the ground, flew into the air, and flew backwards with blood splattering!
boom!!!
Under the gaze of the audience, Aoi Seishi flew out of the field, slammed into the ground, and exploded into a cloud of dust!
referee:”……”
Everything happened so fast that he, the person closest to it, didn’t even react to what happened.
He subconsciously looked at Gin Ichimaru.
This sight frightened him so much that he shuddered.
The murderous intent and determination emanating from this young man are so strong that I have never seen such a strong murderous intent before!
Ichimaru Gin chuckled, and his eyes seemed to be shining with red light.
“determination?”
“That kind of thing was already there when I stepped out of the team barracks.”
“Don’t even mention you bugs. Even if I have to kill my colleagues, I won’t have any psychological burden!”
After saying this, he swung his Zanpakutō, put it back into the sheath, and turned to leave.
The referee swallowed.
“Win, the winner! Mikami family, Ichimaru Gin!”
Not long after, another strange figure walked onto the stage.
Seeing his expression, many nobles laughed out loud.
“What is this? A dog?”
“Hey! Are you kidding me? Since when can a dog run for captain?”
“You bastard! Are you looking down on the nobles?”
Komamura was not at all affected by the insults from everyone.
He just raised his head and said calmly:
“I am a wolf, not a dog.”
“Werewolf? What the hell?”
“Go back to the mountains!”
“Go back!”
Listening to the nobles’ shouting, Komamura showed a somewhat emotional look.
Thinking back to the time when he had just come out of his clan land and was walking aimlessly in Rukongai, wasn’t he like this?
Everyone who sees my appearance either feels disgusted, angry, and rejects me.
What would I be like now if I hadn’t met Mr. Mikami?
I’m afraid he either found a forest to live alone, or died fighting with others because he couldn’t bear the humiliation.
He took a deep breath.
Then, he suddenly opened his mouth and said:
“I am the swordsman of the Mikami family, Komamura Sajin!”
“If you have any complaints, come up to the stage and speak!”
——! !
For a moment, the whole place fell silent.
The nobles opened their eyes wide, all showing an expression of disbelief.
Is this big dog from Mikami’s family?
They subconsciously looked outside the field, at the man sitting in the captain’s witness stand.
Seeing that Mikami Yu had no objection, they felt a pang in their hearts.
Those who were laughing and mocking just now, now seemed to have taken a mute drug and shut their mouths.
Komamura stood quietly on the field, waiting for his opponent.
Looking at the man walking onto the stage with his face covered in black cloth, he nodded in greeting.
His face was covered with a black cloth and he exuded a cold aura. It was obvious that he was a swordsman raised by a big family.
During the previous rebellion of the Tsunayashiro family, these unorganized Shinigami were the biggest source of trouble.
Since they did not join the Gotei 13, their abilities are varied but not registered.
As for the Shinigami of the Gotei 13, since most of their abilities are recorded in the Great Spiritual Book Corridor, they are completely unreserved in the eyes of the Tsunayashiro family.
Many reapers had to suffer defeat in the end even though they could have won the battle due to the lack of intelligence.
The masked shinigami looked at Komamura silently and did not return the greeting.
“The Mikami family, Komamura Sajin!”
“Hashimoto family, Hashimoto Ichiro!”
“Both sides get ready!”
“The battle…begins!”
Unlike Gin Ichimaru, Komamura was not in a rush to attack.
He is not an assassin-type with high agility and high attack like Gin Ichimaru.
Since he has both strength and output, there is no need for him to take risks.
He stared at the masked Grim Reaper, wanting to see how the other party was going to attack.
At this moment, the masked Grim Reaper suddenly spoke:
“Komamura Sajin… Hehe, I already know your abilities.”
“Unlike you who came here without any preparation, our Hashimoto family is famous in the field of intelligence gathering.”
“Your Zanpakuto, named Heaven’s Punishment, can summon a giant arm out of thin air to help you slash with fire attributes.”
“Bankai, named Black Rope Heavenly Punishment Myooh… The ability is to summon a giant armored warrior that can use the same moves as you, with infinite strength.”
“Haha, this is indeed an excellent ability. If it is used on the battlefield, it will surely play a big role.”
“Unfortunately, this is an arena, not a battlefield.”
“And you are facing me, Hashimoto Ichiro, known as the ‘Ninja’!”
“Just admit defeat and for Mikami Yuu’s sake I won’t attack you, how about that?”
Hearing the other party’s words, Komamura Satsujin didn’t waver at all.
He drew out his Zanpakutō and said calmly, “Sir, make your move.”
Hashimoto Ichiro snorted coldly.
This stupid dog, he really doesn’t want to accept my toast and then drink the forfeit.
He drew out his short sword and rushed towards Komamura’s left formation.
While running, he released his Zanpakutō:
“Diffuse it! Ninjamaru!”
With a flash of light, the Zanpakuto changed from a one-meter-long sword to a dagger.
Komamura Sajin’s eyes narrowed.
Is he an agile close combatant?
He didn’t act arrogantly and swung his knife directly:
“Roar, God’s punishment!!”
A huge black arm appeared out of nowhere, holding a huge blade in its hand, and stabbed Hashimoto fiercely from top to bottom.
“Haha, I’ve already told you, it’s useless!”
As he was speaking, the shadow of the bridge flashed, and it turned from one into three.
Three Hashimotos jumped into the air, two of them bent their legs, and one stepped on the soles of their feet.
The two at the bottom pushed hard, sending the other one flying and rushing towards Komamura.
boom!!!
The sword of Heaven’s Punishment chopped the two Hashimoto clones to pieces.
But from the last look of Hashimoto, it can be seen that this seemingly vigorous attack did not cause any harm to him.
Komamura swung his sword to meet the attack.
Although he is huge, he is not slow.
Under the training of Kenpachi Zaraki, Gin Ichimaru and others, he has long been accustomed to fighting based on instinct.
This knife, although seemingly ordinary, has actually blocked all possible methods of attack a person could use when moving forward.
Faced with this knife, no matter how strong a person is, he can only choose to retreat temporarily and look for another opportunity.
But Hashimoto did not do so.
His body suddenly twisted.
All the joints in my body seemed to come loose in an instant.
As soft as water, he avoided Komamura’s sword in an incredible way and approached.
Holding a short knife in his hand, he grinned at his face covered by a black cloth.
“it’s over.”
“This is… the advantage of intelligence crushing.”
While Komamura didn’t react at all, perhaps because he was stunned by the shock, he stabbed Komamura in the chest, near the heart.
——
boom!!!!
The flames of the explosion surged from Komamura’s chest.
Under the astonished gazes of the surrounding reapers, Hashimoto, who clearly had the upper hand and should have been able to kill Komamura with one blow, actually flew out from in front of Komamura with trails of black smoke.
Bang!!
Hashimoto, whose body was in tatters and smoking, fell outside the field, and his life or death was unknown.
Komamura sighed.
He dispersed the Mingwang armor that he had temporarily summoned to block his chest.
That armor was all reactive armor that Yu Mikami asked Mayuri to develop and put on him.
Before Hashimoto’s knife could even penetrate his body, the explosive counterattack was activated.
By the way, the explosives used by Kurotsuchi Mayuri were the same type that were buried in the bodies of dead soldiers during the rebel war and used to attack Yu Mikami.
Even Yu Mikami, who had already started to strengthen his body and had achieved some success, almost fell into the trap of this bomb, let alone a mere Grim Reaper raised by a noble family.
Looking at Hashimoto lying outside the field, Komamura shook his head slightly.
“You are right about one thing.”
“Intelligence is indeed very important.”
“It’s just that information that you think you have mastered when you don’t fully understand it is more dangerous than information that you don’t know.”
“If there is still a chance to fight, please remember this.”
After saying this, he sheathed his Zanpakutō and turned to leave.
For a moment, the nobles who were watching were silent.
Are these two sent by the Mikami family…both monsters?
Come to think of it, even they had heard that the 11th Division was home to many monsters.
This guy Yu Mikami is so hateful.
In order to expand his sphere of power, he probably brought out the two strongest men under his command.
To win, do whatever it takes!
Such people are a disgrace to the nobility!
The next person to come on stage is Shiba Isshin.
This representative of the younger generation of the Shiba family branch has attracted a lot of attention.
At that time, Shiba Kaiyan had not yet risen, and some people thought that they could bet on Shiba Isshin and bet that no talented person would emerge from the Shiba family.
But soon after, as Shiba Kaiyan proved herself time and time again, the outside world’s attention on Shiba Isshin faded.
Especially after Shiba Isshin began to study under Aizen, there were very few people who knew about his current situation.
He used to be a bit of a show-off, but under the influence of Aizen, he became more and more low-key.
If Aizen hadn’t told him to participate in this competition, he might not have planned to expose himself to the spotlight until now.
A muscular man walked up to the stage and saluted him.
“Although we are a branch family, you are still a member of the Shiba family. According to the rules, I have to respect you.”
“But…if we talk about strength, I am a Death God who has been immersed in martial arts for hundreds of years. My strength is definitely not what a little brat like you can imagine.”
The tough guy spoke in a deep voice.
Shiba Isshin hummed, “Okay, okay, got it.”
“Ah, Senior Aizen is right. It turns out that the less capable a person is, the more they like to show off their seniority…”
Shiba Isshin gave his evaluation with a bright smile.
As soon as these words came out, the tough guy immediately showed an angry look.
“Asshole!!”
He roared, released his Zanpakuto, turned it into a giant long-handled axe, and chopped down at Shiba Isshin!
The smile on Yixin’s face disappeared.
He gets confused at the slightest provocation. What a boring guy.
He drew out his Zanpakutō and struck the weak points of the giant axe one by one in a way that didn’t waste too much energy, making it impossible for the tough guy to perform a combo comfortably.
This frustrating fight made the tough guy scream in anger.
He kept insulting Shiba Isshin, hoping to provoke him into a competition of strength and head-on destructive capabilities.
I didn’t care about this at all.
Senior Aizen once said that the enemy’s angry insults are the best reward for oneself.
Just keep on spending time like this, there’s no rush.
Anyway, I don’t plan to be the captain of the Sixth Division. After beating up a few noble thugs, I will surrender…
While he was fighting, Gin Ichimaru stood outside the arena, stroking his chin and studying the tournament grouping chart.
After a few seconds, he raised the corner of his mouth, as if he had thought of something.
Isshin Shiba was fighting with the giant axe man when the frivolous voice of a fox man suddenly rang in his ears.
“I’ll tell you a secret.”
“Mikami-sama, told me and Sajin at the entrance of the squad this morning that whoever wins the championship will be granted a request by him~”
“?”
Shiba Isshin was stunned for a moment.
He couldn’t help but glance at Ichimaru Gin outside the field out of the corner of his eye.
The latter smiled at him and gave him a thumbs up.
Although he was not sure, his intuition told him that what Ichimaru Gin said should be true!
For a moment, Shiba Isshin began to think rapidly.
Is there anything I need help with, Brother Mikami?
After thinking for a few seconds, his eyes suddenly lit up and he took a deep breath.
In an instant, his aura changed drastically.
He was careless just now, just fighting leisurely, but suddenly he was burning with fighting spirit.
“Burn, Yanyue.”
“——Crescent Moon, Sky Rush!!”
Shiba Isshin raised his Zanpakutō upwards.
Under the shocked gaze of the tough guy, a crescent-shaped sword pressure with blazing flames instantly condensed and took shape, engulfing him.
boom!!!!
On the ring, a huge explosion spread out.
When the explosion gradually faded away, the strong man was already lying on the ground, without a sound.
Shiba, intent on imitating Aizen’s habit, twirled his sword and sheathed his Zanpakutō.
He turned and walked off the stage.
Hehehe…If I win the championship this time, I will let Brother Mikami make the decision and let Senior Aizen officially accept me as his apprentice!
Just thinking about that scene makes me excited to the point of pulling out the flag!
The champion of this competition must be mine!!
