Leo looked at Ywach lying on the ground covered in blood. The spiritual energy shrouding him started to dissipate slowly, revealing his complete body.
"You won."
He said weakly.
Leo replied, "You are right, we met at different circ.u.mstances."
"Haha...
Ywach laughed softly. His voice turned softer by the second until it finally stopped. The last bit of life in him was gone.
When his life came to an end his body reacted and started to break down. It collapsed into a large group of shadows and scattered into the air.
Leo watched calmly as his body disappeared. He turned his focus away and looked at the old zanpakuto in his hand.
Right now the millennium old zanpakuto looked feeble. It's blade was full of cracks wisps of smoke rose from these cracks.
"Thank you."
Leo muttered softly.
Hearing the gratitude in his words the sword hummed one last time.
It's blade started to crumble from the tip. Soon it turned to dust and was blown along with the wind.
"Farewell."
Leo bid goodbye to the old man's sword.
"Are you ok?"
Shinobu appeared beside him and asked.
Leo nodded, "Yeah... just a bit lost."
Shinobu came close to him and hugged his hand, "Whatever has happened has happened."
Leo smiled and pinched her cheek, "I know."
Shinobu slapped his hand, "You always do that."
"Haha."
He laughed it off.
While he was speaking with Shinobu he failed to notice a streak of light entering his broken Dragon - Tiger sword.
Suddenly the space they were in started to rumble.
Leo and Shinobu looked around for a moment before relaxing.
"The Soul King was an existence keeping the balance of this world, Ywach replaced him. And now with him gone this world is seeking for a new balance."
"This is good. The existence of this world will no longer rely on an individual."
The shaking continued for several minutes before it started to weaken. Soon the palace they were in came to a sudden stop.
Both of them looked at each other before leaving the place.
On their way back they saw Ichigo and company. Their opponents were beaten to the ground or dead at this point.
Among them was Uryuu.
Seeing Leo Uryuu looked guilty.
The former walked to him and asked, "You have so little confidence in me?"
Uryuu didn't speak.
Leo shook his head and knocked on his head. Uryuu felt the pain and covered his head while crouching down.
"I don't need you to save me, you are still wet behind the ears for that."
Ichigo was confused as to what was happening and asked, "What's going on?"
Shinobu chuckled and replied, "Your friend thought Ywach might kill us so he did a bit extra and kept a failsafe for the seal they used on my husband."
Leo took out a small Quincy cross.
Uryuu looked at the cross and asked, "Teac... you didn't use it?"
Leo threw the cross to him, "Like I said, I don't need a kid to think for me. I'll forgive you on the account that you are still in your puberty."
"I am not!"
Ichigo finally got the situation and grinned, "I thought so. I knew you didn't betray us, Uryuu!"
He slapped Uryuu's shoulder while laughing.
Uryuu pushed him away and snorted.
"Now now, don't be shy. Or are you still reeling from your puberty, haha."
"Ichigo Kurosaki!!"
Leo watched the duo bickering with each other and shook his head.
'Kid's will be kids.'

Time flew by quickly.
