Chapter 821 War Hero
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
At Leadale Howard was with his great granddaughter Caerina.
They were walking down a path down the woods since Caerina wanted to see his skills like how much Calen told her about him.
A soldier looks at Howard and asked Caerina: "Captain who is he?"
"That is my great grandfather." Caerina said.
"Huh, really?!" The woman got surprised.
"Yes, he was a soldier so I wish to see his skills and compare them." She said.
"Is he from your grandmother's side of the family?" The woman said.
"No from my grandfather." Caerina said.
Howard chuckles at they're reaction, it seems the reputation of his future daughter in law is well known.
They then saw many beasts come foward and they got ready.
"Zanzer Blade!" Caerina uses her spell that makes a crescent moon-shaped bolt of lightning.
It hits a beast but it still kept going making her grunt.
"Bakudo 4: Hainawa." Howard said as he shoots a energy rope grabbing the beast.
Caerina got surprised. I never seen that spell before, does grandfather know it too?
A Rhino like monster charges foward and Howard puts a hand foward. "Bakudo 39: Enkōsen!" He makes a spinning energy disk that blocked the beast before hitting it back.
"Shoot them, Kyūsoku!" His zanpakuto changed to the shikai.
"Is that a magical weapon?" Caerina asked.
"You can say that." Howard smiles as he starts to shoot at the beasts one at a time.
A large bird comes down.
"Haien!" He shoots a fireball kido at it burning the bird.
Howard then saw a massive Gorilla appear and roars at them.
"So more have come." He said with the beasts coming.
"But against me, this will be a good training." He smiles as he powers up.
Calen was with Cayna at the house and he felt it.
"Dad... You unlocked it." He looks outside a window.
"Huh?" Cayna got confused.
Howard opens his eyes. "Bankai."
His clothes changed becoming like the jetpack Fighter from call of duty but it was black and red, the helmet was like the Jovian Guard from Destiny with the chest armor being from the same set, the shape of the suit resembles that of the Dekamaster too.
"Kyusoku Sensō!" He said.
Caerina was amazed when she saw that and could feel the power.
He then summons a sword that was like the shadow saber but with a green pattern and the wolf head is replaced with a Eagle.
Many beasts charged at him but Howard slashes each one as he walks foward taking them down one by one.
He charges up the sword and he looks at his right arm to see a counter as it goes down.
He slashes many of the monsters before he kicks one away.
Many jumped at him but he spins around slashing the beasts in half.
The Gorilla charges at him and Howard charges up his sword with kido before he cuts the monster in half making it explode.
"It's done." Howard said.
"Thank you Great grandfather." Caerina said with her friend nodding with a stunned look.
"Let us continue." Howard said as he changes his zanpakuto back to normal.
Caerina looks at Howard. He truly is a great warrior, I wonder if Grandfather has something like that.
Her group followed Howard and many were amazed at the power he has with the power of his Bankai, with some of it's abilities not fully shown yet.
Howard smiles at the skills he was able to do with his Bankai.
It's incredible but it's not all I can do with it, this beasts aren't that strong to push me but the numbers helped with the training I needed to perfect it. He thinks to himself.
Calen was surprised at the level of power his father had.
"Was that your father?" Cayna said since she sensed it too.
"Yes, it seems he managed to get a level of power I got a long time ago." Calen said. "And it's very fitting for him."
He was a war hero and his zanpakuto reflects it very well.
"I know he can be a great hero again." Calen smiles.
Note: Howard showed off his skills and his Bankai with Sensō meaning Warfare, as his connection to being a soldier in his previous life, the Bankai is basically him getting ready for a war as he's in a suit made to fight in many wars.
