Chapter 827 Uchiha's Determination

I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.

At the Soul Society Itachi was walking down the barracks, he then thinks about the time he was sent here.

After the effects of the reanimation Jutsu was canceled he was sent to the Soul Society, he was still dead but as a Shinigami he can fight and do something that he was doing before leaving Konoha.

He joined the 9th Division as they were closer to his times as a anbu and he got along with his new Captain Kensei and Hisagi.

"This afterlife is different from the one I knew, but now I help spirits in need." Itachi said.

He then thinks about his sister and Izumi, he knows his sister had to face Madara alone and Izumi is taking care of his child.

A alert was heard and he saw Hisagi come foward.

"What's wrong Hisagi?" Itachi asked.

"A dangerous criminal has escaped the Muken." Hisagi said surprising him.

"Who is it?" Itachi said.

"Sōya Azashiro, he was a member of the Azashiro clan that once tried to get revenge to what happened to his family." Hisagi said.

Itachi frowns, he heard of his clan, they were framed for a crime they didn't commit and were forced to fight against Hollows, despite Sōya surviving the elders promising to release the survivors, they went against it and sent more hollows basically making Sōya mad to the point his zanpakuto awakened as he defeated all the hollows.

"I'll go after him!" Itachi goes off.

"Itachi!" Hisagi said but he was gone.

Kensei arrived. "Don't worry, we'll help with the search too and Itachi has the skills."

Later

Itachi came to the Rukongai and arrives at the slums, he then saw Sōya there waiting. "I've found you."

"So they sent you after me?" Soya said.

"It was needed to make sure you didn't escape." Itachi said.

"You will not be stopping me from leaving." Soya said firmly.

His Bankai activated and Itachi saw the places changing a bit.

Itachi uses his sharingan. "Is this a illusion?"

"Trust me what you are seeing is indeed real." Soya said.

He fuses with the ground using his Bankai. He then creates spikes to impale Itachi with.

Itachi then turns into crows and appears behind him to slash at Soya with his sword.

Soya predicts this and vanishes into the ground before remerging elsewhere.

He then merges with the air and creates a storm. Lightning emerges from the sky to strike at Itachi.

Itachi summons the Susanoo using the yata mirror to block the attack.

Soya raises an eyebrow at the Susanoo.

He then sends a powerful gust of wind at Itachi.

Itachi has the Susanoo grabs on to the ground.

"With the Susanoo, I have the ultimate defense." Itachi said.

"Not for much longer." Soya says.

He uses his technique Utusu to make several arms and the Kido spell, Itto Kaso together against Itachi.

Itachi saw that and uses the Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique to go underground to avoid the blast.

Soya thinks Itachi was vanquished by the attack and prepares to leave when Itachi suddenly remerges in front of him.

"What?!" Sōya said.

Itachi then stabs him with his zanpakuto.

Soya grunts before resorting to his deadliest technique, Seitai Yugo. It is one of his Bankai's ultimate techniques. Which allows him to merge with a victim's body and destroy them from the inside, thus destroying their internal body.

Itachi then pops into smoke surprising him as the real Itachi appears far from him.

"How are you not dead?" Soya said surprised.

Itachi looks at him. "That was a clone you tried to use the ability on, so it didn't work."

Soya is surprised by this.

He gets desperate and activates his Shikai.

"I didn't want to resort to this but I have no choice." He said.

Itachi then activates his Shikai. "Deceive, Dākukarasu!"

His Shikai was a dark blade with crow like wings as the guard with a red orb on the hilt.

Soya is wary but attacks anyway.

Itachi raises the blade in front of him as Itachi got ready, then many crows appear around them covering Itachi.

Soya slashes at Itachi making him get slashed but he appears behind Soya slashing pieces of his hair, Soya knocks a stone back and Itachi puts his sword foward. "Izanami!"

Soya attacks again slashing at Itachi who then disappears then reappears. Soya repeats his attack again to the same result.

"What is going on?" He thought.

Soya does it again making the same results happen as he knocks the same stone.

Itachi appears back in his spot with the sword. "Izanami! It's useless, your now trap in my genjutsu!"

"How?" Soya asked.

"The moment I activated was when I used one of my sharingan." One of them was white.

"You sacrificed an eye to trap me?" Soya asked

"In this spirit body, i'll get it back later, now you won't escape until you accept your reality." Itachi said.

"Damn you!" Soya replied venomously.

He kept fighting but it was no use.

In reality Soya was just standing there with Itachi watching him.

Then he saw Kensei and Hisagi come.

"You captured the escaped prisoner." Kensei said.

"Thanks! We'll bring him back to Muken." Hisagi said.

"It was simply my duty as a member of the 9th Division." Itachi said.

Itachi goes off as they took Sōya with them, he thinks that they're similar, two men that came from a noble clan in it's own right, but it got destroyed, but Itachi chose this path to protect what he believes in.

He then felt new souls enter this universe that used to belong in his.

"I wonder who they could be." He said.

At Hueco Mundo

Grimmjow was walking at the new Las Noches with a few hollows that serve him.

"I know Draco has the others, well i'll be waiting for when we fight again." He smirks.

"So your still thinking about facing him."

Grimmjow looks back and saw a new espada wearing the white coat.

"Oh it's you Sasori." He said.

Standing in front of him is Sasori from Yuto's world who has a bone piece on the side of his head that comes down similar to a guard.

"I was just doing my work." He said.

"Well I just can't wait, who knows what might happen." Grimmjow grins as Sasori sighs.

He turned into a Hollow after he died but he was at least a vasto lorde but he wonders what the new types are being born in the other side since he was with Grimmjow as a new member of his group.

Note: Here's Itachi chapter where he fights Sōya from the Bleach novels, with Itachi being dead as a spirit he can use Izanami without the need to sacrifice one of his eyes forever, he just needs to stop it later on to get the eye back.
