Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō novel Chapter 476

Chapter 476: Chapter 476: Firsthand Experience

Lilynette held her dual pistols in both hands, while ten Reishi lightsabers floated around her body. She was clearly far more proficient and fluid in her control of power than Starrk.

Their original form had been capable of splitting into two beings, a testament to their exceptional mastery over Reishi and soul structure.

Although it was never explicitly stated in the original work, seeing the scene before him, Masatsuki Aozaki couldn’t help but harbor a strong suspicion—perhaps Lilynette was the true main body.

After all, their original self had been so powerful that it felt crushingly lonely. In an attempt to become weaker, it separated off the stronger part—Starrk.

In that light, it would make perfect sense if the relatively weaker Lilynette were the original.

...

At that moment, Kenpachi Zaraki charged forward without hesitation, dragging his massive, jagged blade behind him.

His eyes gleamed with ferocity, wild and savage like a beast, throwing himself into battle without a hint of fear.

In the world of the Shinigami, especially in the later stages, beings who mastered conceptual and rule-based powers had become commonplace. Relying on mere Shinigami strength alone was no longer enough.

To become stronger, one had to seek out stranger, more varied paths of evolution.

Kenpachi Zaraki sprinted with everything he had, kicking up clouds of dust behind him—when suddenly a brilliant blue glow surged forward, lighting up his demonic mask.

Reishi lightsabers launched in rapid succession, like a storm of blades. Under Lilynette’s precise control, they sealed off every possible escape route.

Watching the dense barrage, Masatsuki Aozaki murmured,

"A variant of Los Lobos?"

Lilynette’s sword formation closely resembled Starrk’s Los Lobos, but it was obvious her control far surpassed his. She could pull off such a complex technique without using soul fragments at all.

No way to dodge!

Faced with the incoming onslaught, Kenpachi Zaraki made the only choice he could—he braced himself and took it head-on.

A lightsaber smashed into his body with brutal force, unleashing a deafening explosion. In that moment, destruction and regeneration collided.

But Kenpachi wasn’t the type to flinch from pain. He was hurled back, skidding hundreds of meters across the ground before finally managing to stop himself.

Then, without missing a beat, he raised his Zanpakutō. At the tip of the blade, a radiant glow burst to life.

Sword Pressure!

A golden wave of searing energy blasted forth, slicing a crescent arc through the air.

It looked as if it could rip the sky itself apart, leaving shimmering trails of light in its wake.

"Huh? That actually worked?"

Lilynette raised a brow in surprise.

Sword pressure was one of the most basic techniques in a Shinigami’s arsenal. And the energy Kenpachi released was only comparable to one of her lightsabers.

Yet when the powerful slash clashed with the lightsaber array, the resulting energy collision triggered a chain reaction—each lightsaber detonated in succession.

"Was that just the instinct of a wild beast... or a total coincidence?"

She turned her head—but caught a blur of motion racing at her from the side.

Fast, purposeful strides.

He was trying to close the distance.

Trying to get close to me, just like that?

Her lips curled into a faint, mocking smile. Then she raised her dual pistols again.

Cero Metralleta!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

With a sharp, screeching sound, countless beams of blue energy pierced through the air like a hail of bullets, ripping through the void and raining down toward Kenpachi Zaraki.

The beams were blindingly fast—arriving before him in the blink of an eye.

Was this the true power of the only fully autonomous Arrancar-born Menos?
