Chapter 2

The next day was going to be quite a hectic day for Kenpachi. An emergency Captain's Meeting was called together in order to discuss the sudden surge of power. (No one knows it was Kenpachi's Zanpakuto yet.) The Fourth Company was up in arms with all the Squad Members they had to take care of, and whoever was awake had to be on rush guard duty to make sure there wasn't an attack. Once the Captains were gathered, they were all talking amongst themselves at the possible theories of the attack.

"I could've been a Vasto Lorde." Captain Hitsugaya said calmly.

"I'm not so sure…" Captain Ukitake started before he and everyone else was interrupted by General Yamamoto.

"Now you all know why we are here." He said in his usual commanding voice. "The current issue, what was the cause of that pulse."

"It was extremely powerful, comparable even to you Old Man." Captain Kyoraku said lazily. The others nodded. Kenpachi, who had a grin on the entire time, had an even larger grin. He soon started laughing. Everyone quieted and turned to the insane man. General Yamamoto found this quiet offensive.



"Captain Kenpachi! I do understand you have little or no fear of death. That power was much more then you could ever muster, so what makes you think you have any right to laugh about the matter." He said harshly. Kenpachi started laughing even harder, much to the chagrin of everyone around him. He pulled out his Zanpakuto, which was now in its regular form instead of Release Form.

Flashback

"I want to surprise everyone with the new power." Kenpachi said to Kuro Shunketsu. "Do you think you could go into your regular form so I can show off?"

I suppose… But it could only work once. After that, I can't switch back. Kuro Shunketsu said calmly.

"I've got no problem with that." Kenpachi said with a large, near sadistic grin.

End Flashback

"Kill them! Kuro Shunketsu!" Kenpachi roared as his sword transformed. Once again, there was the enormous pulse of spiritual energy shooting through the Soul Society. Kenpachi successfully destroyed the 

building they were in, and due to how close to the blast they were, all the Captains struggled greatly to keep themselves conscious. "I believe I can muster that kind of strength." Kenpachi said sadistically.

"What… What have you done?!" General Yamamoto asked fiercely.

"I've started talking with my Zanpakuto. You'd be amazed at what he was to say." Kenpachi said with a gruff laugh. Suddenly, General Yamamoto's Zanpakuto met with Kuro Shunketsu.

"I always knew you were unstable. Currently you hold too much power to be left alive." The old man said darkly. Kenpachi grinned.

"This'll be a great fight." Kenpachi said as he jumped back.

"All things of this world, turn to ashes." General Yamamoto started. "Ryujin Jakka!" His Zanpakuto ignited in a fury of flames. Kenpachi just continued to smile.
