Assassin's Creed: Pirates of the Caribbean

"Yamazaki Ryuji's focus is entirely on those two old men..."

"With his strength and combat instincts, he would probably be able to sense it even if it was you who did it."

"Only the quick awakening of my magic spear can catch him off guard."

Ichiginmaru explained as he approached Kenpachi Zaraki with a fan-shaped gesture.

"Humph!"

"A sneak attack is not what a warrior does!"

Kenpachi Zaraki curled his lips, but the depression in his heart was slightly relieved.

"When facing the God Clan, we must not let go of any opportunity!"

Ichi Ginmaru asked back, "Do you think it's a bad thing for us to be able to weaken the strength of a God Clan without fighting?"

"Even if they still have some hidden cards, if we can destroy one of the Eight Heroes in advance, we will be much more relaxed and our chances of winning will be greatly increased."

"Are you going to wait until the Gods have some hidden strength, and then go up alone to resist them all?"

Ichiginmaru thought that the series of questions would make Kenpachi Zaraki agree. However, he didn't expect... "A warrior should never fear death!"

"To die on the battlefield is the fate of a soldier!"

Kenpachi Zaraki's resolute look made beads of sweat drip from Ichi Ginmaru's brow. …

This... Is it true that a warrior's thinking is different from that of ordinary people?

Helplessly holding his forehead, Ichi Ginmaru put aside Kenpachi Zaraki's question, turned to Aizen and smiled, then greeted, "Aizen, Shiro, Byakuya, is everyone okay?"

"As you can see……"

Kuchiki Byakuya responded with a complicated look on his face.

"If you two hadn't shown up, we would have been stuck here this time..."

Aizen Kusuke shrugged, indicating his injuries, and expressed his seriousness.

Dongshiro just turned around and nodded to Ichiginmaru. Among the three, Dongshiro was in pretty good condition.

"It's really hard to see you guys in such a mess except in the battle of Hueco Mundo..."

Although the three of them were in a bit of a mess, they were not fatally injured. So, Ichi Ginmaru played a joke on them.

"The Battle of Hueco Mundo..."

"Ichi Ginmaru, this time our opponent is a being more terrifying than Hueco Mundo—the Gods!"

Aizen spread his hands helplessly and said, Although the battle in Hueco Mundo was fierce, it was still far behind the Gods.

Even the fierce battle in Hueco Mundo cost Seireitei a heavy price. They were facing a tribe of gods led by their lord Orochi himself. It was already quite good that they could do this with just the three of them.

"Hey Hey hey……"

Before they could finish their words, a loud shout interrupted their conversation.

Yamazaki Ryuji stabbed the extended Zanpakuto "Divine Spear" on his arm and roared at Ichi Ginmaru.

"Boy..." "I haven't seen you for decades, and you give me such a big gift when we meet. It's really..."

“Are you overestimating your own capabilities?”

"Have you forgotten how it felt to be easily suppressed by me? Do you want to experience it again?"

With a bullet in the chest and bleeding profusely, even a strong man like Rayleigh would be powerless to save him and could only wait for death... But Zhan Guo and the others seemed to have an illusion.

Surprisingly, the voice of Ryuji Yamazaki, who was so seriously injured, was not as weak as expected... Ichi Ginmaru was about to speak but was choked back.

He looked at Aizen with a smile, then turned his head and glanced at Yamazaki Ryuji indifferently, with a subtle sneer crossing the corner of his mouth.

“Hehehe…”

"Isn't this one of the eight great gods of the past, Dark Yamazaki Ryuji?"

“What happened…?”

"Weren't you still as powerful as ever three thousand years ago?"

"How come you are so weak now? You can't even withstand a casual stab from me."

"..."

The corner of Yamazaki Ryuji's mouth twitched. Damn it... He said to stab at random. Is this a joke? This is the fully released Death Blade! But he said to stab at random.

Okay, okay, if you have the guts, try a more ruthless one for me.

However... although Ichi Ginmaru's words and actions made Yamazaki Ryuji furious, it was hard to refute... after all, compared to himself three thousand years ago, he has been greatly weakened!

Once upon a time, he had surpassed Ichi Ginmaru and could easily suppress him.

But now... Ichi Ginmaru was nailed to death with just one move.

Even if the giant snake's power barely maintains its vitality, it will not be able to fight in the short term... Strength! Strength is the foundation.

If Yamazaki Ryuji was still in his peak condition, Ichi Ginmaru would never let him experience such a cold piercing.

"I just... was careless for a moment."

“I didn’t expect that some people’s mentality would change like this after not seeing them for decades!”

His expression changed constantly, his eyes flickered, and Yamazaki Ryuji's proud face looked a little uncomfortable.

“clang…”

The silver light flashed away.

The sharp Death Sword that stretched for thousands of meters was quickly retracted.

It soon returned to its normal size and was firmly grasped by Ichi Ginmaru.

"Pfft..."

Ichi Ginmaru retracted the knife, the wound was no longer blocked, and blood spurted out instantly.

Yamazaki Ryuji's expression suddenly became a little dispirited.

After retracting the knife, Ichi Ginmaru sneered, "When facing a man like you, I just want to win, so why not use some tricks?"

"You've lived for so many years, and you still can't see this truth?"

"The winner is the king, the loser is the enemy. What's the harm in attacking for the sake of victory?"

Kenpachi Zaraki's face showed displeasure...As a fighter obsessed with kendo, he always takes a fair attitude towards battles.

Ichi Ginmaru said this, as if he was also disparaging him... "Shameless..."

The corner of his eye twitched, and Yamazaki Ryuji only uttered two words... "Meteorite Flame!"
