Chapter 3 - Chi no Ken

(I DO NOT OWN BLEACH)

Soi-Fon pov.

After a good night's rest I was awoken by the early morning light, I get up and go take a shower as I think about how to track the unknown man from yesterday's event, after he just literally disappeared completely.

I finish my shower and finally get ready for today as I get out of my room and go to see Head Captain Yamamoto at his request.

I arrive at the place fairly quickly, entering Gotei 13 and arriving in front Yamamoto.

As soon as I get there he begins explaining how I shall proceed with the mission.

His voice boomed in the hall.

"You shall investigate the events which have transpired yesterday, events which you reported yourself, you are to search in the vicinity of the district 34 and find the unknown shinigami and bring him back here by all means necessary, you are able to take two shinigamis with you to ȧssist in the mission, understood?"

"Yes Head-Captain!" I bow as I say that

"Very well, dismissed."

Wisp pov.

I am currently training and meditating on how to teleport but can't seem to figure out how to do it, I woke up earlier as refreshed as one can be when you sleep on that bed or I think it's a bed...

Anyways I went ahead and tried to exercise, well that went as well as one could think when you have super everything but are not use to it completely, I tried to go on a run but kept hitting my feet on random forest ground stuff, like rocks and roots, then I tried exercising on my strenght.

I discovered that I was able to literally go beyond my physical capabilities, I think my mental barriers were removed... maybe it's because of the fact that I died or maybe it's the regeneration... why I say that is because I broke more bones in what seems to be two hours than in 27 years of my past life.

Fed up with my meditation taking me nowhere for now, I get up from my standing place which was a rock I cut in half with my sword, very nice sword by the way.

So I begin to walk in a random direction hoping to find a lake or a body of water big enough, soon enough I find a little river and decide to follow the stream up to it's source.

I then follow for 30 minutes before I get tired and begin jogging, now for an outside person it would look like I'm sprinting for my life but I'm actually just jogging.

'I love this new body.' I say to myself.

I finally arrive at the cave... by following the stream... there was a lake right next to the cave and I just passed one hour of my day for nothing, note to self always check around place of living.

I grab a towel from the bag on my belt and go to the lake, I undress and soak in the water, washing the blood away and any fatigue from the past events.

I suddenly get curious and go underwater, I see a big fish and grab it, my movement too fast for it to react as I break it's neck so it doesn't go crazy and put it next to my clothes on the shore, I then go underwater again and stay there for a good moment exploring, seeing the fish and the underwater life.

I then get out of the water drying myself up with the towel, I also notice the increase of muscles, my body now has muscles, well, everywhere...

Anyways I finally grab the fish going next to the cave to make a fire ussing some supplies in the cave, I prepared the fish, again with the supplies found in the cave and ate, I took a moment to rest.

Later in the day.

I soon wake up looking at a sky, if you can call a completely cloud covered sky with blood red light rays coming in between them.

I get up to look around, I notice that this place is really cool and beautiful looking but is absolutely not normal, I am currently in a little grass plateau surrounded by trees, the vegetation looks burnt and black but still healthy, the ground is covered in ash and the grass is grey, along with the sky.

The result is strange yet beautiful for me though because I think any normal person would be freaking out by now, but for me I find this place calming.

"Where the hell am I now though..." I sigh

"In your inner world." I hear someone say grufly behind me.

"Huh that explains a lot, wait what?" I turn around and damn I was not expecting what I saw.

There was someone that looked a lot like me except he had red skin, was slightly bigger and taller, he had small red horns on his forehead, he had a large cloak on.

I raise my eyebrows, if I'm in my inner world then he must be my zanpakuto.

"Correct you are master, I am indeed your zanpakuto." He says effectively reading my mind.

At that he seems to be completely taken aback, his eyes widen as he looks at me before giving me a toothy grin.

"Very well, as for why you're already here, I have no idea, like I didn't even plan to see you so soon either, you are a complete mystery, first you get killed, the hollow doesn't eat your soul, you wake up in soul society with me, you now have this new extremely strong body, that's already able to handle most of my power without shattering, and you still have physical form as well as being a shinigami..."

"What do you mean?" I say intrigued by that last part.

"I mean this is your soul right here but in the outside world, you're not a soul, it's your true body, which means you can be seen by the people of the living world, but normaly soul reapers cannot be seen by normal humans as they are souls ." He explains.

"Awesome."

"Indeed."

We both begin laughing like maniacs, feeling like we can be ourselves.

"So now that I think about it, I should change my name, new life, new body..." I say

"What about Wisp ? The little nickname your mother gave you when you were a kid?"

"Chi no Ken... Damnit !"

"What is it?" I ask

"I prepared a super cool challenge for you to take on and I just... nevermind." he sighs

"Well then what does your ? our ? mine ?"

"Our..."

"Thank you, so what does our shikai do?"

"Well... When you or your ennemies shed blood the essence goes within you, it increases your abilities, physical, mental, spiritual pressure and more... " he explains

"What about the teleportation ability ?" I ask

"That's yours and as for how to do it, you opened a portal using you spiritual pressure..." he scratches his head.

"Our time is running out, you have to go back to your world oh and before you go be sure to dodge." He said seemingly ignoring his new nickname.

"Okay bye..."

I wake up from my meditation but something rings in my head...

"Dodge wh-" SLAM !

I have no time to think as something strikes me sending me flying into a mountain side making me cough up blood, I land on the ground and cough trying to breath, my vision is blurry and senses dulled.

I look up to see what hit me into the side of a mountain and see another one of those monsters, Jesus Christ another one ?! This isn't my job, damn shinigamis not doing their job.

I focus back onto the monster and look at its appearance, the hollow was big and mean I felt small next to it, and I was 2,20 meters tall. It had a mix of a boar and a gorilla for a mask, it had few blunt spikes here and there and silver fur on his shoulder and forearms. He had long arm that looked like trunks and was just oozing physical strenght.

As I finish analysing it, I act on instinct and teleport behind him, I hit behind his knee with all the strenght I can muster, I land a powerful hit that make his knee buckle forcing him to fall on his knee, I jump back to take time to heal my arm.

'Hitting this monster feels like hitting metal.' I clench and unclench my hand in discomfort.

Ignore the already fading ache in my body and get up seeing the monster charging at me, I prepare my zanpakuto to strike the hollow down, when he gets close I duck under a right hook, and swing my zanpakuto cutting the monster across the ċhėst, then I teleport on his back and stab the sword in it's neck ancoring me.

The beast begins to trash around as I begin to hit it's head with very heavy swings creating multiple shockwaves, I finally jump off of him forced to dodge him charging at the wall.

Finally we are both breathing heavily, I look at him and finally scream a beast like roar as I charge at him using my speed and teleportation I get there instantly, my reiatsu (spirit energy) flairing.

I then raise my fist that's shaking with energy, my body surrounded by crackling red and black electricity, I finally punch, discharging all the energie I have into it's mask, the hit send the monster flying into the mountain side, it's head mangled and bloody, it hit the mountain side and soon turned into particles.

Pain suddenly shoot up my arm, hissing I look to see my arm bruised and cut, most of the bones in it are broken, my top clothes torn because of the fight leaving me topless, I turn around seeing the girl for yesterday looking at me in awe, slight fear and concern.

I go sit down on a rock, breathing a sigh of relief as I feel the pain subsiding as my arm heals itself, I begin to feel tired and close my eyes focusing on breathing.

Earlier

Soi-Fon pov.

After some preparations, I decide to go to district 34 alone as to not pressure that man and risking him attacking.

I began going around in the forest as it is the only place we haven't checked, I come by destroyed places as if someone fought or something powerful trashed the place...

If it's a hollow we have a problem on our hands, I continue to search in vain.

Suddenly when I'm about give up, I feel a huge spike in reiatsu, the sky took a red hue and breathing became hard, approaching the source, I finally stop when the man from yesterday flies in front of me crashing through multiple trees finally stopping by crashing into a rock.

I turn to see a hollow, it's reiatsu able to rival a menos grande's power, I watch as the man and the beast charges at each other, as the man expertly dodges the beast's hit and slashes open it's ċhėst then teleported to the beast head stabbing his zanpakuto in it's back and rapidly punching it's head cracking it's mask.

The shockwaves from the hits was able to make me stumble back multiple times, after a few seconds the man jumped off as the hollow rams himself into a wall.

The man and the beast looks at each other before the man let's out the most blood curdling roar I've heard since Kenpachi Zaraki, and before I can even register the man is punching the hollow in the face, it's head not far from just exploding, the hollow is launched in the mountain side.

'So fast! I didn't even see him move!' I scream in my mind, frozen in place by the force of his reiatsu, his reiatsu while monstrously powerful and dreadful like a beast looking at its prey also feel warm, almost gentle.

I look at him and notice his clothes are torn off, exposing his hard, glistening muscles making blush a new shade of red not yet discovered, then looking at his face when he's serious, his eyes that shows that he will destroy you if not careful but doubled by a warmth and kindness.

As she looks at him, she hears him hiss as he looks down at his arm bruised and broken, I frown, as I think about how much that would hurt, a small wave of concerm washes over me as I watch him limp over to a rock and sitting down breathing.

For a second he only catches his breath, his arm mending right before my eyes, the teleporation, that punch, the regeneration, what the hell is he? He finally sits up and looks at me.

"So... Hello lieutenant..?" He says huskily.

"Soi-Fon, lieutenant of the second division, nice to finally talk to without you fleeing the scene ." I answer pouting slightly.

That seems to amuse him.

"Sorry Soi Fon, I just got nervous, I'm new here you see... I'm Wisp by the way." He give me a toothy grin.

"Well I'll get to the point, the Head Captain wants to see you and recruit you." I say

He looks at me for a second, then just say

"Awesome, let's go."

"Wait, just like that?"

"Yes, just like that... but before I need to wash up again, and so should you." He says, which made me look down at myself, I had dirt and sweat on me and it didn't look nice it made a little embarrassed, I then realised what he said.

"Wh-w- What?!" I exclaim flustered

It took him a moment to realise what he just said.

"I didn't mean it like that, Jesus! " he said waving his hands defensively.

"I wouldn't mind though...' I thought blushing slightly, I finally realise what I just said. The man... Wisp look at my expression.

"What ?" He ask confused by my demeanour.

"What ?" I echo acting like nothing is put of the usual.

After an awkward silence he finally breaks it.

"Welp I'll just be on my way to the pond then..." he teleports away.

As I think on what I said, I realise that I really wouldn't mind, this man, Wisp as he calls himself isn't bad if the events that took place was anything to go by, he also seems to be a professional kind of person, and that power he displayed, so many questions that needs answers, I need to know more.

With that in mind, I made my way towards the pond.

Wisp pov.

'What the hell is happening...' first that hollow, then Soi-fon being an enemy for now as I had no intention of joining the Gotei 13.

Why you may ask, well I have my physical body, powers that don't come from Chi no Ken, and I read that the Goteu 13 takes a real pŀėȧsurė experimenting on people, so hell no.

I am in the pond cleaning and relaxing after my fight, I think back to my conversation with Ken (his nickname for his zanpakuto Chi no Ken which means Sword of Blood).

Suddenly I hear water moving behind, as I turn, I see blushing Soi Fon in her undėrwėȧr and a towel coming into the water with me.

"What."

A.n : So there it is, Wisp zanpakuto and inner world as well as more Soi Fon and Wisp moment, if I remember correctly Soi-Fon is very shy? Also if I made any mistakes sorry still new I try my best to correct them.

Well that's it, I hope you enjoy.
