Chapter 64 – Fearing Death

Chapter 64 – Fearing Death

Clang!

Hearing Ailin's words, Byakuya Kuchiki reflexively drew out his Zanpakutō from his waist, gripping the hilt tightly with both hands, the blade pointing towards Ailin.

"Very good, Byakuya. You must remember, once you've drawn your sword, you must be prepared to kill your enemy and be killed by your enemy."

"Now, are you prepared to kill me, or be killed by me?"

"What?"

Byakuya Kuchiki's pupils suddenly contracted.

Because Ailin's voice came from behind him.

"Swish swish..."

The next moment, Byakuya Kuchiki only felt a chill on his chest and abdomen. Large amounts of blood gushed out from the two wounds.

"Pfft..."

Byakuya Kuchiki spit out a mouthful of blood. Feeling that all his strength was draining away with the flow of blood, he could no longer support his body and collapsed to the ground.

"Flash Blossom— "

"This is a move where one circles behind the enemy using Shunpo, destroying the enemy's Soul Sleep and Chain of Fate. With your current strength, even if I suppress my own spiritual pressure, strength and speed to be on par with yours, you probably can't even see my movements."

Walking to the front of Byakuya Kuchiki, Ailin waved his hand, flicking the blood on the Zanpakutō to splash in an arc on the ground.

Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes were wide open as he looked at Ailin, full of incredulity. He never expected that Uncle Ailin would actually make a move to kill him.

"Un-uncle...why?"

Byakuya Kuchiki breathed heavily, forcefully suppressing the fear of death as he asked Ailin why he wanted to kill him.

"Didn't I tell you earlier? Byakuya. Once you've drawn your sword, you must be prepared to kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy."

"This is the first lesson I'm teaching you. If you don't even have the resolve to kill the enemy, how can your sword harm the enemy?

Hearing Ailin's voice, Byakuya Kuchiki's body shuddered reflexively before he woke up from his earlier surreal feeling. He was still in battle against Uncle Ailin!

Gripping his Zanpakutō tightly, Byakuya focused his gaze on Ailin.

"Not bad. After receiving such pain just now, you still dare to point your blade at me. I must commend you for this, Byakuya."

Seeing Byakuya's performance, Ailin nodded in satisfaction and pointed to the Void Bandages floating above them, saying to Byakuya, "Don't worry, that sword from earlier has recovery abilities. As long as you are not killed by me in one blow, she can restore your condition completely."

"So in our battle later, you must pay attention at all times, to not be killed by me. Otherwise, she does not have the ability to revive the dead. But rest assured. Since this is training for you after all, I won't defeat you in one blow like before. Instead, I'll slowly apply pressure on you bit by bit to bring out your full potential."

Ailin's voice was not loud, gentle like a spring breeze. But landing in Byakuya's ears, it was like spring thunder, blasting his eardrums.

Whoosh!

With a stomp of his feet, Ailin charged towards Byakuya Kuchiki.

Clang!

Byakuya swung his sword with both hands to block Ailin's attack.

"Not bad. No panicking in battle, worthy of praise. But when I do this, how will you respond with both your hands gripping your sword like that?"

Ailin was displaying a strength similar to Byakuya's, so when their blades clashed, Byakuya occupied the advantage and pressed his sword down against Ailin's.

But despite gaining the upper hand in strength, Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes did not show any smugness, only filled with horror.

Because Ailin's free left hand slowly raised up, extending a finger to point at Byakuya Kuchiki's forehead.

Then under Byakuya's terrified gaze, Ailin's finger slowly moved down before finally pointing at Byakuya Kuchiki's right arm.

"Hadō Number Four—Byakurai!"

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

Boom!
