Next area our heroes came too was a floating city! buildings on rafts or house boats linked by a harbor walk made of wood or other other boats! It was known as swan town! the only land mass was a castle carved out of a mountain which made it clear that is where the ring holder would be! So our family walked over to it! no gaurds they just walked in to song
she was dressed in a white swim suit with shusuke amagai's bakotto on her arm full armored up lizard tail and eyes sash she held out it's energy blade holding it as she flapped her wings," I came for a proper challenge using the old raven's notes to make this thing! you and me!" She charged swinging it down!
In a moment Ichigo was blocking with his larger sword! Cheeah want to run out and help but found herself unable to summon her fullbring! Song smiled, "My weapon jams those powers of your family! it's only you by might alone!"
Ichigo jumped back and quickly went to his hollow state and bankai! he swing his bankai blade around clashing blades with Song's energy one as Zangetsu spoke up, "yeah she is right! every time we clash with that blade it makes my frame ware want to shut down! all that power we have yet to master is the only thinking keeping us online! I know I am using tech terms but while I am magic in nature I am still an invention and their by partly technological!" The owner tried fire off a "GETSUGA TENSHOU!" But nothing happened.
the swan smiled as she fired off a beam blast Making Ichigo duck as his family ran out leaving them alone to fight! She slashed, "Oh gee what a pity No sword power!" she said charging and slashing while dancing around all crazy with her swings. Ichigo forced to block them! before he smirked and fired off a "BALA" Form his horns making her jump back!
the reaper held his sword, "Ok Hollow powers still working just fine!" he swung his sword side ways to block the bird lady's strike! " Ok lady when you fall this quest will be half over! and half the rings of death will be dust in the wind!" he said smiling as he fired off his cero! Only for swan to hold her blade side ways and try to absorb it! she pulled in energy form the flowers and plants around them to boost her power as the weapon generated a black belt and left leg armor giving her a dragon like leg and foot to match her arm! her wings flapped as she managed to absorb the cero and smile as she pointed with her blade.
Swan smirks holding it out " nice try kitty cat!" She smirked as she charged for a sword slash only for Ichigo to keep blocking it as she said, 'I absorbed your best attack you can not hope to win now!" She spoke as her weapon generated a second side ways strap and arm armor giving her two swords! matching leg armor formed giving her dragon scale like armor on her legs and arms! She smirked as Ichigo kept up with her two blades blocking them!
till it happened a horn vanished! and the bankai became shikai blades Ichigo struggling to keep up as zangetsu said, "Good news king we can just wait till it sucks the life out of her bad news! it's getting stronger and starting to shut me down completely!"
before long Ichigo put his blades up and dashed out with speed retreating! by the time he found his family his zanpukto was sealed into it's original over sized Katana form! he looked at it, "She got strong enough to shut down Zangetsu! ok this is a problem and I only have one answer!" he pulled out a quincy cross uryu once gave him! he soon formed a large bow that looked like two of the original zangetsu on end! " need to channel my mother and snipe this bitch!"
he said running of with his family to hide they jumped over to hide under the harbor walk way! as swan walked over it Ichigo held his bow as he heard the old man say, "take aim and strike true Ichigo!" In a moment Swan was above and he fired his arrow! the blast went up and split her down the middle hitting the cores on the vest to kill the weapon ending it!
They came out smirking as Oirhime rejected the ring and everyone smiled their powers coming back on! Ichigo looked to his shikai as he smiled, while Cheeah used her fullbring as she cheered," half way done half way done!"
Safa shock herself off as She bend over to kiss Kazui and pur before braking it, "I never want to be powerless again! it was horrifying! well mostly! that Quincy shit worked just fine!"
Ichigo nodded he never want to use the bow again but luckily he had it when he need it to finish off swam! Cheeah was looking around they would rest to knight but she knew Tigress would come out for a rematch! Cheeah was smart enough to know some how that Tiger lady who want her daddy had become her arch enemy! Well hers or Kazui and Safa! she would come after one of them! six more rings till she would be gone for ever! they couldn't wait!
That night Kazui held his shikai Safa using her shield out as they walked along the harbor walk to see Tiger wearing a coral gauntlet with an eye flying behind her a massive throwing star with battle axe like blades with an eye in the middle her new weapon as she held out her normal fullbring blade ready for battle!
next chapter when it's Kazui taking Safa out for a moon lit spare for date night! against Tigress see you next time
