User:Sentonara/The Raging Sands: Clashing Forces

As the Hariguchi opened up on the ground, out of the blackness a mass of sand started to appear. Taking a form, then becoming a solid shape. Out of the shape appeared a man with a long green fur coat, smoking on a cigar began to walk out of the Hariguchi looking around to see where he can have some fun.

"Well, that was a nice trick..." Out of nowhere was a man wearing a black formal outfit. On the man's face was a smile, certainly liking what he is seeing.

"Well I guess that I am not aloe, oh well I guess I can start my little party. So my my human why don't you go, before you end up being lunch for the Hiroki ok?" The man told the person who had appeared before him, thinking nothing of him.

Taking out a cup of instant-coffee out of his coat, Minoru took a sip. "Party? Still too early... " Looking at his pocket watch, he confirmed what he just said. "Its just 4:20 in the morning, good sir...Others are still sleeping... Can you come back some other time?"

"Sorry my dear boy, sorry can't I have all my friends coming to began my end of the worlds party heh. If you want boy I can kill you here and now while I am waiting for them. I still have a bit of time to kill they wouldn't come until 5 anyway. To Be honest I am looking for a place called Hama, I though it would be the prefect place for my little party wouldn't you think? Heh oh well I guess your one of the heroes, oh what are you going to do to many pussys here anyway. Always calling them strong just because they have a big sword or power haha." The man said lightig up his cigar laughing at his joke.

Minoru too bursted out with laughter. "Hama town is just over there.." He pointed out. "But you see.. I can't have you there... I've noticed you're quite the loud mouth and like I said... There are still people sleeping.. " His facial expression the changed, a darker aura enveloping him. "If you haven't said your going to kill me... I think we'll get along..."

"Sorry boy but I need to wake the people of Hama town they are going to be the food for our party. So out of the way boy, well I guess I should taste the food to make sure that it isn't poisoned haha. Oh well I guess your heart will have to do hahaha." The man laughed as he seemed to have fade away in sand, as it started to swril around the man in black. It starting to go around him and as it began to form a whirlwind the sand itself started to form into crescent shaped blades and ran along the whirl wind trying to cut up the man.

"Now now... That ain't very nice.." Using his extraordinary speed and reflexes, he found an opening and continued to escape the assault. Though unexpectedly, coffee spilled on the mass of sand whirling around. "Oops.. Don't worry it doesn't stain..

Ashura transforming back into his solid form and looking at what the man did, with a smug smile.

"Really? You are that stupid?" Ashura laughed as he placed his hand on the spot that the coffe spilled on him.

"You look confused yes I can understand, you see that idea was good but that wouldn't do it got boy." Ashura told the man in black as he tunred his right arm into sand and slammed it into the ground. In the form of a cresecent blades coming at the man at high speeds.

"Idea? I see..." From such accidents, Ashura sure doesn't know when to say it or not. Passing through the blades by the use of simply footwork, Minoru got in front of Ashura's face. "Still planning on eating my heart? I can assure that it won't taste very good..."

"Hehe come on boy, do you really think I can't see through that little act?" Ashura said with a smug smile as he exhiled cigar smoke right infront of the man in black's face.

"You call yourself high and mighty but you don't really know what I can truly do." Ashura asked the man again.

"I never did... But can't you make sure you're not the one whose high?" He remarked, blowing off the smoke circling his face. "Uhm... You don't know how hard it is to remove the smell from smoke in my clothes do you?" Minoru sighed, distancing himself from Ashura and trying to take-off the left sand in his clothes.

"You know I find you funny hah, you want to know why? I have never seen a man like you, are you going to a funeral or something?" Ashura asked the man as he exhiled more smoke, as it seemed that the smoke started to form a fog as ashura said in a harsh tone "Kasumi". Before the man knew it the whole area was covered in a great thick fog making hard to breath.

"I can sew you for the air pollution you've caused...It's illegal to smoke here.." Using only his excess reiatsu, Minoru made a sphere-like barrier around him, pushing the fog away from him. The sphere would then get larger and larger forcing the fog scatter until it would fade. "I should hire you as my nephew's birthday clown, you sure do know a lot of tricks... he'd be pleased.."

"My aren't you just full of surpises, so am I" Ashura said as he seemed to move his hand in a circle motion and the sphere faded awaywith ease. Ashura as started to get an aura around his hands in the form of a bubble like mass, he slammed his hand into the ground and creating cracks with the ground. Although it seemed there was no shaking only until it reached the man and earth spikes came from all around him and started to go for a fatal blow.

"Suihou" Ashura said as he knew atleast this attack would probably kill the man off for such an insult.

Appearing to have been caught off-guard, Minoru was pierced all over his skinny body. As if he was trying to say something, he mumbled but was unable to relay any sort of message. His hands hanged below, the wind having it swing from left-to-right. From anyone's eye, he was lifeless.

"Ok boy you can stop the little act got it but if you want to play dead I can make sure you play dead for good heh." Ashura said as he turned his hand into sand and he strecthed it out to reach out and touch the man's back. At he started to touch the man, the man's own body started to be drained of its energy and if done correctly the man's body will become mummy like after.

"Oh I like your energy." Ashura said as he exhiled his cigar smoke and started to drain the man of his energy.

"Are you...By any chance...Gay?" Minoru appeared behind the man, with a somewhat curious look on his face. The body Ashura is touching started to emit somekind of transparent-blue strings. In over second, the body exploded with strings that wrapped around Ashura, making sure he won't escape. "Now.. If I pull this string then.." He said, his finger tips emitting the same materials.

"Haha please, I have a form and no form, I have a name, but then I don't have a name. I am a being and yet I not a being, a being created from the other side of peoples hearts. I am here, yet I am not here, powerful and strong. But a reality that can't be explained. A real head scratcher, isn't it? I have no need for love, I only really want to have fun in these worlds heh." Ashura gave the riddle to the man knowing he would figure it out, as it seemed ashura turned his hand back into sand escaping the threads.

"My my human I never seen someone with a weird fullbring as yours tell me, what kind of hollow did you come acrossed?" Ashura asked.

"Fullbring?" Minoru laughed. The strings returning to his fingertips. "What kind of comprehension do you have? Human? Please... And I thought better of you than that..."

'Hah remeber Shinigami, think of it as how I see you in my eyes. I think of you as a small human boy, nothing special really. I mean you can't keep a hold on me stupid boy, so why don't you step aside and let me go." Ashura said as he put his hands out and it seemed that the man in black began to float in the air. Ashura began to walk away as the boy seemed to stay in the air and ashura walk passed him making his way to Hama town.

"I would not make another step.." Losing his grin, Minoru's facial expression had completely changed. "I'm oblige to unsheath my blade and point it to you...But I'd rather have this in a more...civilized way... Don't you think?" Coating himself with reiatsu, he rendered Ashura's ability to control gravity useless as he had realized that energy cannot be affected by such. "I have see through you... and if you possess no more tricks that is better than what you have last... I'm sorry to say but I would have to escort you home.." He slowly had his feet down to the ground, still facing the other way of Ashura's view.

"My my you think that is all of my tricks? I really thought that you would atleast be alittle bit more hmm whats the word.........Powerful?" Ashura said as he turned his arm into sand and formed it into a gaint arm and as it strecth out at the man. He grow claws out of the hand as it started to come at the man at high speeds.

Only dodging it by a mere fraction of a second, Minoru had his cheek wounded by the small cut Ashura's claw made. The blood from his face did not stop him though from getting near to Ashura. Taking the white glove from his left hand, more blood was spilled as he had his strings make small cuts from his fingers and palm which he used to get a hold of Ashura's clothes. "Hate getting wet?" The mocking statement coming from his lips accompanied by the expression of his face made sure Minoru would hit a nerve or two. The thin strings then flowed through out and covered Ashura once more, now with Minoru's blood and sweat.

"Haha please a string like that connecting liquid to me huh? Let me tell you you almost have my weakness figured out but not fully my boy." Ashura said as he grabbed onto to the string and it seemed to have dried out all of the liquid that followed. Waiting for the shock on the man's face, ashura mocked the man as it seemed he had figured out the first of Ashura weakness but not fully understand what is needed for him.

"Please don't think of me with the same level of intelligence as yours.." It seems Ashura did not realize what would happen if one is to touch Minoru's strings intentionally and to absorb his blood without his permission. Though it seemed was that it all dried up, he had simply allowed it to enter inside. Minoru's grin returned, confident that he'd win this one. Ashura made it easier for Minoru to attack from the inside out. "Though this is only my guess, you are able to turn you body into sand whenever you want but that is not the case if something is hindering you to do so." The reiatsu from Minoru's blood spread through out Ashura's body and emerged from his skin, covering him with it from every inch. "As long as my reiatsu's inside you, you can't freely do that... basically sand is a not-so complex type of soil made from finely divided rocks and minerals... but if one is able to lump it together, sand cannot flow like it always does... now with my reiatsu inside you, it acts like a binder to make this a little fair.."

"Well Kid I have to hand it to you, you were the only one to have ever done this to me. But sadly I have to resort to using my Majikku and some kido tricks. Having to go this low to a shinigami's level how shity, oh well I have no other choice. But my boy you do know that even the sands themsevles hold secerts right? Let me ask you if those are basicly pure energy right? So now lets see if I can take care of this. Mukaibi!" Ashura said as he seemed to have put his hand on himself and use his own power to cause vibration through his body causing most of the sand to return to its loose and shifting state.

"You maybe a litte confused at this but its understandable you are only a little rat anyway hah! Let explian it this way were even a child can understand. I sent vibrations throughout my hand, then touching my body I sent these vibrations to break up the clumping sand to return to its normal state seeming to have pushed out the blood and the mans reiatsu. Ashura explianed this as he seemed to have fooled the man, into doing this because it will can in handy later. Ashura still had a bit of the man's blood but put it into a small vessal to save it.

"Witty..how witty.." Smirking, Minoru stepped back and charged a punch, only to release and aim it on Ashura's chest. "But enough with feeling each other, ok?"

"Please, boy you know you can't hit me." Ashura said the punch went right through him, as he reformed from his sand. He made a fist and fired it aiming for Minoru's face, trying to push him back from Ashura. As Ashura did he turned his fist into sand, hoping when he connected the punch to the man, he could take the man into his sands and drain his energy.

The punch did hit but not a sign of pain nor did Minoru even flinch, like how a human's mere punch would do nothing to a brick wall. While his other hand remained within Ashura's, his other hand held Ashura's wrist, coating it with his reiatsu for the same effect he did just moments before. Every second seemed like minutes for both combatants fought in a relatively high-speed. Casting a sphere-shaped barrier around where his fist resides along with Ashura's chest, Minoru made sure escape would be hard to do. "The only problem with attacking you physically is that you'd simply reform...but that is if the part of your body has enough of your sand... But to isolate atleast one part of your body with the rest and to destroy every grain of sand in that one particular point... now were talking about something else.." Minoru opened his fist, several strings came through his finger tips and began to move violently, vibrating at near uncalculable speed. Minoru thought that with the sand having nothing to escape to, destroying it all by degrading it to nothing would surely work.

"YOU SHIT! How dare you, you don't know of who your messing with. You managed to get part of my arm gone, but you always seem to have those damn strings connected to me. So to deal with this I can't believe that I have to user my damn Bakkoto on some shit like you, but maybe it can even the battle field haha. So then that means that I see you as a bit of a threat so you should be proud of what you did to me." Ashura said going into a rage, as he put out his free hand and summoned his Bakkoto to his hand.

"Now come out of the sands and become the blade of the gods, come unto me Tsuribari" As Ashura said his chant, his spiritual power sky rocketed to the point that it blew away Minoru although it seemed that he still had control over his own reiastu. Keeping Ashura limited in his movements for now, as this happened. Forming out of sand a golden large hook that Ashura placed his free hand into as tentacles came out of the hook and went into Ashura's skin connecting it up to his spiritual power. Ashura calming down and getting his smug smile back knew that he has the upper hand now. As Ashura simple banged the hook against his own body and a dinging sound could be heard, as this sound moved throughout the area it managed to destory the threads and reiastu around Ashura. Although Ashura took control of the soundwave, but didn't let them go to Minoru saving a special treat for him.

Minoru sighed and glared over Ashura. "I think I've proven that you've lost... Don't you know the meaning of giving up?" He asked, taking off his hat and shrugging the dirt on it and putting it on again. "So..you doing something new?"

"Shut Up! I am tired of you stupid shinigami or whatever you are. I will show you just what my Tsuribari can do! Perpare yourself boy, you haven't seen hell until you have seen what Ametsumi Works can do!" Ashura yelled going into a rage again as he started to run at Minoru with the hook turning into a curved blade, as Ashura was running at Minoru his blade started to spin like a drill. As he drew more and more closer to MInoru ashura hoping to make a quick stab in the man's chest and twisted his body into a weird shape with the rotation of the drill like blade.

"Come on boy, show your zanpkauto do it lets see if it can beat my bakkoto haha!" Ashura knowing that he is going to win now that he is using his bakkoto.

"Don't get mad... But I'm afraid I will not... You see.. the only difference you are now is that you're holding a child's toy to attack... not so intimidating.." As Ashura got closer, Minoru made sure he was coated by his own reiatsu for extra protection for something unexpected and touched the tip of the drilling blade with much precision using only his index finger. With his strings coming out, it followed the drill's motion and began whirling around too, all in one second. Before it could reach him, he side-stepped while pulling the strings that are now wrapped around the drill, trying to cause it to get stuck to further annoy the man wielding it.

"Stupid kid, don't think you and me are on the same level you have no Idea of what I can truly can "become" stupid kid. I am done playing around with you, I have other matters to get to." Ashura said as he pulled back his bakkoto and with a snap of his fingers a Hariguchi opened up ten of the Hiroki class of the Munashimeisei. A truly fearsome sight as they appeared be a twists shaped creatures with thier body twisting in a rubber like form. as they made thier way Minoru as Ashura used Shutai to hide his presnces from MInoru for now.

"aww...That's no fun.." Minoru sighed as fighting such creature just ain't challenging. "Envelop...Gaikai.. With the command, a very loud high pitched sound was released unto the creatures and a purple-colored blade was struck into the ground while a menacing substance emerges out from it and continued its way to the creatures while eating everything in its path. "I'll make quick work on this...ain't even worth my time.."

As the first five seemed to have stepped forward, the seemed to have moced thier bodies like snakes. Moving up Minoru's pant legs and arms, warping ever so nicely and tightly. As the other five seemed to have started to drawl around the other parts of his body hoping to hold him down.

"Tell boy have you ever seen an creature liek these, I asure you I never uses these in a battle be lucky that I would release the high classes." Ashura's voice could be heard from all around at the other cretaures started to glow a red, as the kept crawling over Minoru leaving only a small chance to escape before the completely warp around Minoru.

"Who granted you the persmission?" Countering the snake-like creatures with his shikai, the purple substance covered him and started to eat away all the creatures, leaving nothing behind except ofcourse his clothes. "Underhanded tricks is just cowardly..."

As the creatures were destoryed Ashura appeared a few feet behind Minoru, smiling with his smug look smoking on a cigar known that he has won now.

"You have lost now boy, you see its done now. I will give you one last chance before your are killed, you may feel that I am just lieing right? Well boy I will see what will happen once I get your answer understand me." Ashura said waiting for the boy to make a move, as it seemed Ashura had something up his sleeve for the boy.

"Lost? Hmm... Well, may I remind you of things that you might have forgotten.. It seems to me your trying tell me you've won without proof... This ain't even a fight since one of us is too cowardly to face the other... Well, let's take that out to be fair with you.. You've lost part of your arm without me even releasing, you've lost your temper because you couldn't hit me... you've lost you creatures oh-so quick... all of that with me standing unharmed with a few drops of blood I myself created... Now really..I guess you've really won..." Minoru nodded, smiling to add the effectiveness of his sarcastic statements. "Should I give you a lolipop or something? You should atleast get a reward for winning."

"Just wait for it boy, you forget I still have my little vessal that still has some of your blood. As a Munashimeisei I am able to drain the life out of people in a number of way. This time I choose to do it the fun way heh, I just need a sample of your blood to get a good hold on you my dear boy. Now shall we began?" Ashura said as he opened to top of the vessal's cap and drink the few drops of blood out of the vessal. The throwing the vessal onto the ground, two things have happen Minoru and Ashura as connected and Ashura has began his ceremony.

Ashura dispelled his bakkoto and trying a simple bit of his basic Majikku skills, Ashura cut seemed to have used his Majikku to literally curse Minoru now. By now the effects should have started to take affect, Minoru hopefully started to feel a bit different.

"You don't look well huh? Whats wrong you seem a little off do you, you see with my Majikku I can be able to curse who ever I please I just need some blood of said opponent and drink it. Then once into my body, I can think up of a curse in my head then creating a curse. Now shall we began with the ceremoy? Oh yeah I will be taking my arm back haha." Ashura boasted as it seemed that Ashura's arm turned into energy and return to his body good as new. It was because of the curse Ashura has a hold on most of Minoru powers and before to get the boy to feel to have an edge Ashura used Chouzen to literally detach his arm and let it be caught. Looking for the emotion on Minoru's face, Ashura smiled as the ceremony was ready to begin.

"You see you did me a few favors boy, once you killed enough of my race to get thier blood onto the ground and its all around us. The next was my arm, with my arm it needed some of your energy in order to do this ceremony. The last was your blood, so you played right into my little plan. Now maybe I should give you a lolipop haha." Ashura laughed as Minoru played the prefect part in Ashura's trap, Ashura got his smug smile as he played dumb to get him to lowerer his guard. Working prefectly Minoru seemed to have walked right into his trap, Ashura laughed at the man knowing that he couldn't do a thing now that Ashura all the things needed.

"Curse? You stupid? I guess you are.." Not even uttering another word as Minoru has been quite irritated by Ashura's arrogance. With the blood Ashura drank, it would seem that he had forgotten what happened to him before when Minoru was able to get the blood inside of him. Minoru was taking this easy until now, the slightest annoyance will lead to the death of many but it would seem Ashura was the only one in sight. Sending a vast amount of the purple substance near Ashura, he casted a larger sphere around him to cover him completely and to take every chance of escape while the blood that Ashura should have supposely drank was covered of Minoru's own reiatsu so the ceremony didn't take place as Ashura would have thought. His reiatsu covering the blood made it possible for Minoru to burn it. "You shouldn't have shown me that..." Now every single angle is covered by the barrier and with the purple substance near Ashura, he is clearly doomed. The substance growing larger and larger, almost filling up the barrier Minoru created, also isolating Ashura from ever touching the barrier itself to prevent it from breaking. A few meters away, Minoru could be seen raising his left arm with his palm opened then closed it, signaling the substance to begin. "My zanpakuto's ability is to erase every single thing I wish to be erased... Eating it till even its shadow wouldn't remain.. Now tell me... Do you fear death? My blood is the cause of my curse? I beg your pardon? My blood is your curse... Drink it? Are you a fool? No...you are a fool. Sayonara..." Turning his back away from Ashura, he continued to walk, his expression totally showing his irritation, one of the first.

"You call me stupid when in turn you don't know the full extend of why I did this right?" Ashura's voice could be heard, as it seemed that the barrier witht he liquid poped like a balloon. The liquid going everywhere, but no Ashura in sight. It seemed when Ashura was trapped in the barrier he used the Hariguchi to escape the barrier and now is hiding somewhere against.

"Boy just because that reiastu is still in your blood doesn't mean that you have control over me hehe. You see when you had my arm in that barrier, I took some of your own reiastu into my hand. So I am able to control that little trick as well hehe, so lets see how this zanpakuto will work." Ashura said as he put out the arm that had Minoru's reiastu in it and took control over the purple liquid making it turn on Minoru and turned into a massive wave making its way over to Minoru. At the same time, Ashura sent sand coming from behind the wave to wip out Minoru. As this happened Ashura was still hiding controling the purple, liquid as it seemed that it would react to only MInoru's reiast so Ashura as turned it against him.

"You I have to be very careful you know, every plan has a space for error so I made sure that I didn't have any errors and your blood that your focusing you reiastu in me is going to become mine now. I just let you do it to me haha." Ashura said as he seemed to have Minoru concered, with Ashura absorbing the reiastu out of Minoru's blood and controling the puprle liquid. Ashura laughed at Minoru from afar watching as he looked onto the field like a big chess board.

"Hehe stupid boy, he keeps falling into all of my traps. When will the learn hehe." Ashura said as he started a new cigar, puffing on it and watching the fun he has created.

"Gaikan...you dare disobey me?....YOU DARE DISOBEY ME?!!" Shouting out loud, Minoru had enough of it. Losing his temper he confronted his own zanpakuto and broke it into two, making all the substances disappear. "No curse...would I ever allow my own zanpakuto to turn itself against me.. And I wouldn't allow another cheap copy of it.. Such a weak zanpakuto succumbing into such curse..I don't like it..." After breaking it, all the ties between Minoru, Ashura, and Gaikan was severe, causing them to fight like in the very beginning. An impulse from Minoru's reiatsu could be felt, it reached something that it has never been, not even the incident that happened thousand of years ago. Minoru clutched his fist so hard that it bled. The red liquid continued to flow while Minoru walked right into the wave of sand and with a swing from his hand, it all was sent away by the very wind that his reiatsu made. Using shunpo, he had gone right infront of Ahura, his bleeding had about to his face, only a few picometers away, he was basically touching Ashura's nose. To absorb his blood at that speed is impossible.

"Haha whats wrong did I hit a nerve boy? You look like to be on your end while I am only playing games with you and as for my curse I have one last thing to play with. Yes you have disconnected us, but I have been focusing on your reiastut his whole time and you want to know what I found out. It seems that your emotions do effect it and the way you manipulate it. I find it funny really you started out so care free and now you acting like a little bitch haha. I think its time that you are going to be finished, so now we can officaly begin our fun hah." Ashura said as he grabbed onto Minoru's arm knowing two things, that since the blood on his arms and blood has water within it Ashura is able to use his lighting abilities. Then the boy is at his wits end, it seems the final moments have come for both of the men. Ashura seemed to have took little damage throughout the battle, most of it Ashura purposely did to himself to get this far. As Ashura grabbed onto the boy's arm, he formed six pillars out of sand and in the sand pillars where metal fragements. Ashura summoned ten thousand volts of electricity to the pillars, as it charged up Ashura tighted his grip on Minoru's arm and Ashura seemed to turned into sand but be more shiny like metal. It seemed that Ashura pushed out all of the metal fragments and now is acting like a ligthing rot. With the lighting coming out of the pillars into's ashura metal body, then going through that and finally reaching Minoru's body he would be bond to be electrocuted hoping to kill him on the spot with the water in his blood. It was bound to happen, as laughing as this was happening. His laughing starting to get louder and louder as the lighting came through his body and went into Minoru's.

At the last moment, a grin was seen. "Did it seem that way? Oh well..." Minoru, using one of his final tricks, used the opportunity that both of them were so close. Again with the reiatsu coating trick, he bound Ashura, making sure he won't transform into sand or any other form. "A funny thing about reiatsu... You could do anything with it... " With both his arms, he embraced Ashura, taking all the electric current.

BOOM!!!!

An explosion occured, destroying half a mile radius, Minoru's body caused it or so it seems. It was no flesh, but a simple combination of strings and a few drops of blood to make it all realistic. Now it was Minoru's turn to laugh. He was at the very place he stood where he sent Ashura's sand away, the one that got up wasn't him at all, a clone one might say. "Whew...nyahaha...I can't believe he fell for it...nyahahah..." He continued to laugh while his zanpakuto reformed at his hand. "That was...very... smart.." His zanpakuto commented. "The man continued babbling about reiatsu...while he doesn't even know what it means..." Minoru continued while recovering from the hard laugh he just let out. "Who'd fall for his juvenile traps... and nice act my dear friend.." Minoru's reiatsu was really never absorbed, Minoru's will isn't that fragile so as his reiatsu. "Reiastu is what your spirit emits... Reiatsu follows that which created it..well, atleast that which has much will to do so.. If someone tries to take it from you...Don't let it..It's yours anyhow.. You'd be stupid enough to let someone take it from you and use against you.. Its all the matter of brainpower.. Elementary, really.."

''"Now, Minoru, where did you learn that term?" ''His zanpakuto sarcastically asked.

"Humans... They make all the interesting stuffs..." Minoru replied, while having another laugh.

''"What was he saying about your emotions affecting your reiatsu?" ''

"Have you no idea? Come on, for a zanpakuto whose owner is me...You're really stupid.. All you do is eat things away.. You see, what that guy noticed wasn't mine emotion that caused my reiatsu to fluctuate.. It was when I created the clone made of strings of my reiatsu.. Can't believe you and that poor guy haven't noticed.."

"Hahaha!" Ashura's laugh could be heard through the area as he started to reform, from sand. But he seemed to have taken some good bit of damage and he seemed to be in a rage now. Ashura's hair was out of place, as he whiped some blood from his face as he kept laughing at the boy.

"YOU think just by doing that haha, god you think I am human you want to see some power I will show you power haha."Ashura laughing as he summoned his bakkoto back to his hands and it turning into a cruved blade again, ashura yelled Batsu. With that it seemed that everything around the area was cut in half as everything was being cut inhalf, Ashura's spiritual power double making it almost unbareable. The earth cracking, makings it way over to Minoru knowing that this would injure Minoru the bastu being able to even cut atoms.

Being that he isn't fast enough to dodge it, Minoru used the sealed state of his blade to block but since the Batsu was strong enough, even Minoru's blade couldn't resist it and landed a deep wound of his shoulder. "Now that was surprising... If you were fighting me that way this fight would not drag too long.." He commented, totally unfazed by the gash on his shoulder and the blood flowing out from it. "Unfortunately for me... I can't turn to sand..."

'You want sand I will give you SAND!" Ashura said as it seem he started to gag and almost look like he was ready to vomit. When he looked like he was ready to vomit, a massive amount of sand came out of his mouth.

'Now lets see if you can take this!" Ashura said laughing as the massive tsunami waves of sand went at high speeds over to Minoru.

"Cool the temper....cool the temper... But really now... sand is..sand.." Closing his eyes, he formed a stance. He sheated his zanpakuto and looked for Ashura. When he got his eyes on him, he smirked and coated himself of his own reiatsu, including his zanpakuto. Using tremendous speed and strength, he went through the sand unharmed as even the sand couldn't follow his movements and even if they do they could not get in the layer of reiatsu. As he got closer and closer and the distance between him and Ashura was only a few inches away, he pulled his blade and aimed to cut Ashura's head. The moment that his blade would hit, the same effect that happened minutes ago would occur, preventing Ashura's ability to turn into sand.

"Suchirukan!" Ashura said as he remain compelete still, as he held out his bakkoto it seemed that the bakkoto was gathering a thin line of air, putting it around Ashura to prevent him from cut. After Minoru wne through with his strike, ashura was unharmed by his attack. Although it seemed right after the air went away, his bakkoto did get a little bit of a dent but nothing bad.

'Boy I am only using simple tricks and yet you seem to have used most of your tricks up. I mean I didn't use my full power so give it up, I can many more things other than sand you know haha. Now tell me boy? I have a form and no form, I have a name, but then I don't have a name. I am a being and yet I not a being, a being created from the other side of peoples hearts. I am here, yet I am not here, powerful and strong. But a reality that can't be explained. A real head scratcher, isn't it? Can you figure it out? Ashura with his smug look laughed at the boy insulting him, with his riddle again.

"It seems I've got your sandy tricks down.. And ... what makes you think I don't possess the ultimate ability each shinigami possess?" Minoru asked, swinging his blade now towards Ashura's shoulder with precise speed.

Ashura seeing his chance turned his arm into a gaint sand arm and made his way to Minoru to grab onto him. As Ashura seemed to have wanted to push him away, hoping to do so.

"I have had it with you kid, just unleash your bankai and lets get this done with."Ashura said knowing that if he would have to resort to his greatest moves then he was mroe of annoyacne than an opponent.

"Wrong..move.." As the giant arm had grabbed him, the purple substance had once again emerged, now starting to eat the arm, setting Minoru free. "Bankai? Don't kid around... Your not worth it.." The purple substance then changed and formed a giant raven-like creature that assaulted Ashura, hoping to eat him whole.

"Ahhh damn it, you piece of shit. You will pay for that!" Ashura yelled in pain, as he jumped back throwing his coat off his shoulders it landing onto the ground, causing a great bang and leaving a indentation in the ground. Ashura getting serious now, making fists Ashura charged energy up around his fist. He seem to have disappeared and then in a second he appeared behind Minoru, aiming one fist to his face and the other to his stomach. With his energy behind it Ashura wishes to create a focre that will do much more damage from the inside than the outside of Minoru's body.

"I have never needed to remove my coat from my shoulders, mostly I wore that heavey thing to give me a challenge but I have a nice challenege with you. So congrats I am serious now." Ashura said with the raw power that Ashura released blew away the purple substance and making Minoru think twice of making Ashura angry.

Minoru caught Ashura's blow by his own hand but is then pushed back and the force gave him one hell of a shake from the inside but it was not something for Minoru would scream out of pain. "Once again, a wrong move.." The purple substance emerged from his hand, starting to envelop Ashura's. "One last warning,... I could...spare you.. that is if you leave this town immediately and maybe we'll get along... think about it, cuz clearly, your on the wrong side of this battle..."

'Haha please you don't get it do you?" Ashura said as he seemed to have summoned a strange bubble looking barrier to has hand around the purple substance. With that Ashura focused his power thought his bubble and inside the bubble was its only little workd. With this he focused his power to one point and the bubble started to go up Minoru's arm. Minoru shoudl start to feel his whole body being to shake with so much force, that it should even stop his heart. Just to make sure Ashura in his Bakkoto sent lighting through the blade and connected it up Minoru's hoping to shock he as well.

"Come on boy can't get out of this one can you? Your stuck as long as a piece of your body is in that little bubble its own liitle world you have one of two opions one you cut your arm off or you die by my lighting hahah!" Ashura laughed at the spot he put Minoru in.

"My death is not for you to decide..." Having the nerve to smile upto now, no hint of fear nor pain, Minoru proved that he was no mere mortal that this self-proclaimed god should ever look down upon. Ashura underestimated Minoru's shikai, that will cause his demise. If the substance can't eat it from the inside, then so be it, the outside of the bubble will be eaten. Minoru released a high-pitched sound that disturbed the lightning's structure, sending it astray and not through Minoru's direction. Holding on to his zanpakuto, he raised it up and pointed it at Ashura's neck where in the purple substance began to creep while more of it crawls beneath the man's feet, eating away the very ground his standing on. "I just gave you the same options just now...leave or die.."

"I am done with you boy, you little piece of shit have underestimated me you have no idea of what I can truly do. Now let me give you a lesson on the Munashimeisei, for I am Ashura Jishou. I will show you what true power is, now Shuradou Sunaburo!" When ashura yelled and shouted this out, his spirtiual power increased ten fold blowing away the substance as Ashura began to spit up sand out of his mouth and it seemed Ashura to grow fatter. His arms, legs and body getting bigger turning into a beast, ashura's moans and the sounds of his bones crack at the transformation that he is going through. He seemed to grow twice in size, standing at 7'8 over Minoru his shadow casted over him. A great mass of fog was seen, coming around Ashura as the fog cleared the creature Ashura has become was truly fearsome. Taking the appearance of a sand-coloured, with black markings all over its face, body, and tail, and a jagged, concave mouth. The sclera of its eyes are black, containing yellow irides with pupils that each takes the shape of a black four-pointed star with four black dots around it. Being a fat mass of sand, ashura had turned his own body into sand as his bakkoto sank into his body saving it for later use. As his bakkoto powers started to fuse with Ashura, he was ready for battle. As he strecthed his right arm its claws coming out at Minoru, as it grew closer to Minoru his fingers turned into blade like claws wanting to dig into Minoru.

Using his blade to parry the blades, Minoru was able to render them harmless. He blocked one last claw but it had proved to be stronger than what he imagined and pushed him back. Jumping back, he made quite a distance between him and this monstrous Ashura. "Well..well.. I know this line is quite old...but as they say.. The Bigger you are..the harder you'll fall.." With a smirk, he removed both his hat and his jacket, getting ready to battle this beast. A blue sphere of energy formed in front in him which later turned red. It shattered into hundreds of pieces which all turned into red blades that floated in the sky. "Shall we begin?" All at once, the blades assaulted Ashura with tremendous speed.

"Lets play hahaha, come on come on! Stupid fool you have no chance against me now you piece of shit lets get to it then. I still have a lot more surpises for you hahah." Ashura yelled as it seemed that his personality changed from its cold relaxed and somewhat creul humor to a savage killer wanting to have blood from anything on his hands. Although in this state Ashura is much more slower, so that red balls hit Ashura in a direct attack. But he didn't take as much damage as Minoru would have hope for, Ashura's body did get some hole like injures but was able to renegerate it from his sands.

"What are you going to do tough guy hahaha!" Ashura laughing like a hyena with his dark deep demoic voice, enough to send even a chill down the devil's back.

Minoru smirked as he was already at Ashura's feet, his sheath pointed at Ashura's skin. Releasing an ear-piercing sound at point-black, it could shatter Ashura's very foundation and damage his brain itself if he won't act accordingly. The shock from the sound itself left a crater from the very ground there were standing, so Ashura better think of something and quick as Minoru could only give him a few second before he explode.

Ashura felt the sound waves, but since Ashura just a bunch of sand he seemed to have fallen apart. As he fell apart he started to reform after, when Ashura did He turned his fingers into blades. He strecthed out his own arms and made them coming at Minoru with full speeds and raw force. Knowing that even if Minoru blocked the blades Ashura would be abkle to throw him and atleast make Minoru be thrown into a wall or tree.

Ashura's assumptions being correct, Minoru tried to block but was then thrown against a large tree but it isn't without its purpose. As Ashura made contact with Minoru's blade, so did he touch the substance coming out of it. This time Minoru was determined to put a end to this. As he stood his ground after being thrown, he used most of his reiatsu to summon up a huge mass of purple substance around him which dissolved almost everything around him. More of it emerged, so much that it covered even the sky. The whole area was filled with it, even making Ashura's gigantic size seem like an ant in a center of a flash flood. This was Minoru's final move, it should somehow give Ashura a run for his money and if not, it would atleast damage Ashura, making him more vulnerable against the people in Hama town who should have noticed this commotion by now. On his command, the purple substance surrounded and assualted Ashura at all directions.

"I have had it with you piece of shit!" Ashura shouted, as he forced his hands into the ground and it seemed that Ashura digging his arms into the fround. Which created the fround to cave on itself, when this did most of the liquid managed to go into the ground and where Ashura dig was directly underneath Hama, for the substance to eat away at the dirt underneath the town so it will sink into the ground. But it seemed that part of the substance did managed to get onto Ashura's arm he was forced to detached his arm while the substances ate away at it. But Ashura regenerated his arm, from his sand.
