Chapter 39 – Bankai – Heaven Piercing Sword

"Oh? Third Seat Kōga’s stomach is still quite beyond my imagination. I thought I had already made him angry." Hearing Kōga’s roar, Ailin shook his head and smiled.

"Humph, I hope your mouth will still be so hard later!" Kōga was speechless for a moment, his face even stiffened, and finally only uttered another vicious remark. Then, wielding his Zanpakuto, his figure kept flashing as he charged at Ailin.Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

In a few flashes, Kōga had already appeared in front of Ailin, slashing his Zanpakuto directly at Ailin.

"Wind Scar!"

Ailin waved his left hand, and three sky-piercing wind slashes tore through the air, instantly submerging Kōga. But the next moment, the Kōga that was slashed by Ailin instantly turned into an afterimage. On the other side, Kōga’s figure appeared on Ailin's right, slashing his Zanpakuto at Ailin again.

"Azure Dragon Break!"

With lightning flashing in his right hand, a purple thunder dragon tore Kōga’s figure apart.

Boom!

The purple thunder dragon and wind slashes wreaked havoc on the 7th Division again. Unfortunately, Ailin’s two powerful moves did not truly hit Kōga.

After using illusions to deceive Ailin's attacks three or five times, Koga's real body appeared behind Ailin, slashing his Zanpakuto directly at Ailin.

Crackle!

Unfortunately, Kōga’s slash did not truly attack Ailin either. A circle of purple barriers appeared around Ailin, blocking Kōga’s attack.

Whoosh!

The next moment, two rays of blade lights flashed by as Ailin slashed Koga's body into two halves. But then this body shattered like an afterimage.

Ailin's expression congealed slightly. He knew that the reason why he had slashed Koga’s illusions several times was because he had already been affected by Koga's ability.

Seeing this scene, Kōga’s eyes narrowed slightly, "What's wrong? Realized the gap between us so you want to surrender?"

The barrier around Ailin made it very difficult for Kōga to attack Ailin. But obviously, Kōga had also noticed the weakness in Ailin’s barrier. After several attacks, the sheath bearing that barrier was already on the verge of collapse.

"Third Seat Kōga, when did you start harboring the misconception that you surpassed me? I won't deny that your ability is indeed extraordinary. At least the current me still hasn't found a way to expose your real body. However..."

Ailin stretched out a hand as concentric ripples undulated before Ailin's right hand, a Zanpakuto extending out from the ripples' center that Ailin gripped with his hand.

"Shine—!"

As Ailin shouted out, the Zanpakuto in his hand transformed into what seemed like a mirror-like double-edged straight sword.

"Third Seat Kōga, your ability has a range limit right?"

Ailin looked towards Kōga, not caring whether the current Kōga was an illusion or the real body, "Judging from your previous few attacks, the distance between each of your illusions and real body wouldn't exceed ten meters. Tell me, if my attack range has a radius of three hundred meters around me, how much effect would your ability still have?"

"What?"

Under Kōga’s horrified gaze, Ailin raised the mirror-like straight sword high overhead with both hands.

"Bankai - Heaven Piercing Sword!"

Heaven Piercing Sword originated from the Sword Art Online: Alicization arc's Integrity Knight Fanatio's weapon that Ailin retained memories of.

Its initial release "Armament Full Control Art" could absorb the surrounding spirit particles and fire them as laser attacks at the enemy.

Its final release "Memories Release" could absorb massive amounts of spirit particles from the surroundings for concentrated laser bombardment over a wide area around the user, as well as condense those lasers into an overwhelmingly powerful pillar of sacred light to smash the enemy.

What Ailin was currently displaying was Heaven Piercing Sword's power after Memories Release. With Ailin at the center, massive amounts of spirit particles converged onto Ailin's Heaven Piercing Sword, causing it to look like a miniature sun.

Then in an instant, this "mini sun" blossomed with countless rays of light, irradiating in all directions.

Boom Boom Boom!
