Chapter 1519 Samurai of Legend
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
Sota was walking around the world Meiko and Alex were at.
"Why did I get called to check on this place?" He scratches his head.
Meiko asked him to check around the world to see for anything interesting.
He walks down a road and he saw near a river bank someone fighting, a guy charged at a man that looks like a samurai wearing a blue gi.
He raises his hands as if he's holding a sword and brings them down slashing him with without a sword. The man screams and falls down as Sota got surprised, the strike didn't leave any wounds but it made the man feel it.
'That wasn't a normal strike. It's as if he cut with his imagination.'
His sword skills is so good he can cut people without a sword. A imitation cut you can call it.
The swordsman looks at Sota. "So what are you looking at kid?"
"Just seeing your skills." Sota said.
"Well if your curious I am the greatest swordsman in history."
"Who are you then?" Sota said.
"I am Musashi."
Sota got surprised to hear that name.
"Many of these weaklings don't stand a chance against me." Musashi said. "As I will show them why I am the greatest."
Sota frowns, the great Musashi is a guy starving for fame. It seems he didn't adapt to the moddern era.
Sota takes out a asauchi and gets ready. "Wanna try it."
"What makes you think you stand a chance?" Musashi said.
"Well Musashi, I'm a descendant of a old friend of yours." Sota said.
Musashi got curious. "Who?"
Sota stares at him. "Sasaki."
His eyes widen.
"That's right, your best friend and the one man that could match you." Sota said.
Musashi was stunned to hear that Sota is descendant of Sasaki.
"What is your name?" He said.
"I am Sota."
"Well Sota, i'm curious now. To see your strenght compared to that of Sasaki's." Musashi said.
Sota gets ready and holds his sword with his left hand, Musashi brings his hands up and Sota charges at him.
Musashi reads his intentions and goes to the his side to avoid Sota, he slashes down and Sota sees it dodging.
Musashi got surprised. 'He managed to dodge even after I knew when he would attack.'
Sota goes into the zone as he gets ready, Musashi slashes at him making Sota dodge and attack.
Musashi grabs the sword bare handed. "Hmmm a strong blade."
Sota got surprised. 'He blocked it.'
The asauchi are strong blades by themselves and he managed to stop it with his hands.
Musashi then grabs Sota by the leg and throws him to the ground. He then saw Sota get back up as he grunted.
"Not bad, it reminds me when Sasaki stood up with a smile on his face." Musashi said.
"Don't think you got me." Sota charges forward.
He jabs his sword forward and Musashi dodges, then he saw a small got on his gi.
'Could it be?' He wonders.
He brings his hands down cutting Sota and he felt the pain. Sota goes to his knees but he stood back up.
"Well gotta give it to you not giving up. Sasaki always tended to give up on fights because of his attitude." Musashi said.
"Don't think you mess around with me. I hate being looked down on others." Sota said.
Musashi stares at him. "I see, like Sasaki you don't like being the center of attentions. But hate being picked on."
Sota frowns at what he said.
Musashi got interested since it reminded him of the past when he fought Sasaki many times.
"But let's see if you can keep up, i'll draw and see your reaction." He draws.
Sota's eyes widen as Emperor activated making him lean back to avoid a slash.
"Very good. It seems you have something similar to Sasaki." He said.
He remember Sasaki used mental images to adapt to where his opponent might strike which made him a great opponent for Musashi.
Sota slashes at him and Musashi blocks it with his hands again but Sota leans down striking his jaws with a kick.
Musashi rubs it. "Well look at that, your adapting."
Sota was ready as he raises his sword. 'I still don't know what you can do. But i'll just keep on going.'
He attacks Musashi many times and Sota got striked back but he kept on going.
Musashi then brings his hands down but Sota kicks them up surprising the samurai.
"I want to win!" Sota said.
Musashi then saw the face of Sasaki before it changes back to Sota. Showing that he was truly like his ancestor.
Then Sota jabs forward and Musashi saw a circle of slashes going around it like a pinwheel making him stunned.
'The Swallow's Blade.'
He takes out his sword to block the attack as sparks fly out making them clash.
Musashi stares at Sota before he backs away surprising him.
"What?" Sota said.
"I've seen enough." He goes away.
"Are you mocking me?" Sota said.
"No, i'll wait and see how much you can grow." Musashi said.
Sota got confused but he leaves to the other side. Musashi felt a little nostalgic and looks up.
"Looks like your family member is strong Sasaki, I wonder how much he can grow to surpass you." He said.
Musashi was surprised to see one of Sasaki's moves that he was known for being used by Sota, showing that he has the potential to surpass Sasaki since he learned it through battle.
"He's got a long way but he's on the right path. He can be a great warrior."
He's also impressed how much Sota could take from those cuts, while they didn't kill they would have broken the minds of others like how some had suffered seeing they're own deaths. But he pushed forward not caring about what happened and he respected that.
Sota kept going and the guy was strange. First he wants to regain his fame now he's been trying to test him to see if he's just as good as his ancestor.
"Does he really want a challenge after so long? He's one strange guy."
With Draco
He and Mila were back in Fallholt to do a few of the contracts there as they walked forward.
But before they could go to the Kingdom they saw a cave on the other side.
"You know we never checked the areas around here." Mila said.
"Let's see what's inside there." Draco said.
The two of them went there and the moment they entered the cave it was dark with a magic circle on the ground to give out light.
Then they saw a woman there but she's a vampire with long white hair wearing glasses, red top, long sleeve like gloves of the same color and black short.
"Well hello there. I'm Jaclyn." She smiles.
Draco felt a little weirded out.
"What are you looking at us like that?" Mila said.
"I was hopping to find a good one to show great pleasure, how about you bow down and give me that whip." Jaclyn said.
They got worried and Draco gets an idea. "How about I show you a guy you'll like."
"Really? What man could be my type." Jaclyn chuckles.
He transported her away through a portal surprising Mila.
"He should take care of her." He goes away and Mila got confused.
Jaclyn landed on her butt and grunts. Then she saw Alex as he stares down at her.
"Who are you?" He demanded.
She blushes since she can tell he's a real man after her heart. "Hello handsome." He jumps to his arms.
Alex looks and shrugs before taking her away.
Note: Musashi from Baki appeared and faced Sota who revealed to be Sasaki's descendant, and he wanted to know what Sota can do on the future.
