Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482: Chapter 482: The Worst Combination

Upon hearing Zaraki Kenpachi’s provocation, Jerome burst out laughing, but the grin on his face quickly vanished, replaced by a fierce, menacing glare.

"How dare you show such disrespect to us—and to His Majesty! I’ll take your head, then go slaughter your Captain-Commander and offer his life to His Majesty!"

Kenpachi’s grin only grew more twisted.

"He only fights the strong. Let’s see which of us is worthy to challenge him!"

With that, he suddenly raised his hand, and a golden wave of sword pressure shot out like a crescent moon!

Seeing this, Loyd’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He silently marveled: No wonder His Majesty holds him in such high regard—he’s even more powerful in person.

But that’s exactly why I’m the one standing here now!

Over twenty years ago, during that massive battle, several captains of the Gotei 13 led an assault on the Schatten Bereich, forcing the Wandenreich to abandon its territory. Since then, those captains have been marked as priority targets.

Among them, Zaraki Kenpachi and Retsu Unohana are the ones to watch most closely.

Everyone knows how dangerous Zaraki Kenpachi’s potential is. As for Retsu Unohana—though once a rival from a thousand years ago—her current strength can’t even be compared to what it was back then.

Aside from Masatsuki Aozaki, these two were at the top of their list.

That’s why, the moment Lloyd laid eyes on the spiky-haired Shinigami before him, he brought two Sternritter along to intercept.

"Your bravery is admirable, but your power isn’t yours alone. Die by your own blade!"

Loyd spoke calmly.

"Huh? You trying to turn into me?"

Kenpachi scratched his head with a grin.

"That’s awesome!"

Loyd frowned slightly at Kenpachi’s uncontainable excitement. His mood was already sour.

Did this idiot really think that just because he and his brother looked alike, their abilities were the same?

In truth, he and the one who fought Yamamoto—Royd—were twin brothers.

They both possessed the Schrift "Y," representing "Yourself."

But there was a key difference between them.

Royd could only mimic an opponent’s appearance and power.

Loyd, on the other hand, though his imitation was slightly weaker, could perfectly copy the original’s memories and psyche.

That last ability was something Royd lacked.

Still, it was enough.

With the same power as the enemy—and with the help of two Sternritter—defeating the original shouldn’t be too difficult.

As soon as Loyd transformed into his likeness, Kenpachi didn’t hesitate to raise his Zanpakutō, eyes blazing with excitement.

"To fight myself again... This is incredible. Don’t let me down this time!"

Before he even finished speaking, the iconic white Hollow mask had already appeared on his face, and he instantly lunged at Loyd like a blur.

"Drink, Nozarashi!!"

"!!?"

Loyd’s pupils shrank, his face filled with shock.

The power this man unleashed went far beyond anything he expected.

He had no idea Kenpachi wielded Hollow abilities—there was nothing about that in the intel.

No wonder he felt a strange sense of inferiority during the transformation.

That blade, which had suddenly expanded in size—though it hadn’t even swung yet—radiated a terrifying level of threat just from its presence!

"Roar!!"

At that moment, Jerome quickly stepped in front of Loyd, his body instantly transforming into a massive gorilla.
