From Rebirth To Perfection

Chapter 17 - The Guardian of the East Gate and The Alert

Then I decided I will enter the Seireitei the old fashioned way, basically through one of the four gates. I don't want to go through the west gate because Ichigo and his gang plus that little kitten will be there.

"Then I will go to the opposite of the west, east."

As I say that, I begin to fly in high speed towards the direction of the east gate.

"I wonder who will they send to intercept me, since they already know that I appeared due to that rip in space-time that I have made." I think that as I arrived at the East Gate in a very short amount of time.

"Well, let the fun begin." I say quietly as I start to walk towards the entrance, but my path is suddenly cut off by a giant human jumping towards me. I react quickly and jump back, which caused the giant human to strike the ground. Due to sheer force of the strike, the ground started to crack and the debris started to fly around us. I swiftly missed all of them that were flying towards me, or I cut them.

As the snoke dissipates, the giant human is revealed. He is the one, the only guardian of the East Gate, Kaiwan. With his weirdly shaven beard, and scary smile, he looks towards ne and asks me.

"Hey shrimp, you know that you can't pass you know? Otherwise I will need to kill you." He says with his usual smile, which makes it hard to predict his thoughts, but he clearly is looking for a fight, sinxe he saw how I skillfully evaded his attack and those rocks.

"Well, I wanted to ask you to pass in peace, but it seems you will not let me do that. Since that is the case, I will need to kill you." I say as I unsheath my Zanpakuto slowly. He then stares at me for a few seconds before he starts laughing out loud.

"Hahahahaha... You? Kill me? Without even an ounce of Reiatsu radiating from your body? Hahaha..." As he laughs and closes his eyes, he feels a sharp, precise pain on entirety of his neck. Next thing he knows is that he is looking towards his headless body. Although he couldn't make his face to look like that, in his last moments he was shocked to the core, of course, that was inside his mind. Before light completely enveloped his vision, I said.

"The opportunity of defeating the enemy, is provided by the enemy himself." I say as I cut down the gate in half which makes it wide open.

"Well, since the path is open for me, why don't I enter?"I say as I enter the eastern part of Seireitei. Immediately after walking few steps into it, I notice few shinigami recruits, probably newbies, staring at me while holding with their undeveloped Zanpakuto's. Immediately noticing that I noticed them, they start to shunpo towards me at... low speeds to say the least.

"So dissapointing... I though Shinigami's would be a better challenge..." I say as I shunpo towards each one of them individually and cutting their heads off their body.

"I will not even bother to check the notifications, I have no time for that, I will check them after I finish my business here." I say quietly as I start to walk slowly in random direction. Then I heard a loud alarm sound and the message behind it.

"EMERGENCY. THE WEST AND EAST GATES HAVE BEEN DESTROYED AND SEIREITEI IS UNDER THE DIRECTION INVASION. THE EAST GATE GUARDIAN IS CONFIRMED DEAD, WITH WEST GATE GUARDIAN SEVERELY INJURED. THE HEAD CAPTAIN DEMANDS ALL CAPTAIN TO CEASE THEIR ACTIVITY AND COME TO 1DT DIVISION HEADQUARTERS IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I REPEAT, THI IS NOT A DRILL." The message keeps repeating itself, which results in me firing a small beam made out of small amounts of chaos towards the sound alarm.

"It seems that Ichigo and his gang directly entered the Seireitei, which tells me that either Gin didn't appear there at all, or he did but due to some circ.u.mstances, he left them alone. I am leaning towards the latter option.

Just before I wanted to walk away, I notice that a shinigami that I just killed has a certain device hiding under his clothing.

"A camera...?" I say as I look towards it.

"... A nuisance at best..." I say as I point my finger at it which relelases a tiny laser beam that destroys the camera completely.

-----------------------------------------

As all the Captains and Shinigami are watching the video recorded by the same camera that got destroyed, they notice that the intruder noticed it and destroyed it immediately.

"... What about the west gate?" Asks the Captain Commander of Gotei 13, Yamamoto.

"They have sucessfully breached through the west gate, the hate guardian there sustained a injury, but he should alive. As for the the east gate guardian... His head was..."

".... That is enough, is there anything else to report?" Asks Yamamoto with slightly open eyes.

"Yes sir ! The four intruders who breached Seireitei through west gate are splitting up, probably due to Captain Gin already being at the scene there. As for the intruder from the east gate, he is just walking in a random direction hile killing everyone and anyone his sight catches. That concludes the report."

"... Kenpachi, Shunsui, Mayuri, I command you to take down the intruders at the West Gate." Yamamoto says.

"Old man, do we need to kill them or capture them alive?" Shunsui asks whike holding his hat.

"Preferably alive, but you can kill them if nkt possible." Yamamoto says as he opens one of his eyes slightly. Immediately Kenpachi runs off, probably craving for combat. Shortly after Shunsui and Mayuri leave also.

Yamamoto then looks at the remaining Captains present. Then he made his decision

"Ukitake, Byakuya, I command you to intercept this intruder at the East Gate. Your order is to capture him alive or kill him. If neither of those are possible, gather as much information as possible on him. Aizen, you are the backup just in case anything goes wrong. Understood?"

"Yes sir !" All three of them say that out loud as they leave the 1st Division Headquarters.

"... Call Ichimaru Gin, tell him to immediately leave and return here at once !" Yamamoto says with slightly angry expression.

-----------------------------------------

As they are walking towards east gate, they are formulating their plan.

"Alright, what I think we should do is me at the front, Byakuya in the middle and Aizen in thr back as sensei said. I will intercept him with byakuya being somewhere close observing. If by any case he kills me or defeats me, Byakuya attack him or flee to safety and report the findings, same goes for Aizen. If you have anything to add go on." Says Ukitake as he recognizes the threat the intruder poses. To kill East Gate guardian and multiple Shinigami wuite easily is no small feat at all. Byakuya is having the same thoughts and nods, confirming the plan Ukitake made. Aizen also nods but his thoughts as of this moment are unknown.

"Alright then, lets go." Byakuya says as he along with others shunpo's towards the distance.

-----------------------------------------

As I kill another group of Shinigami, I take my Chaos Hogyoku and let it absorb the knowledge of the dead shinigami. It has basically become a routine now to do that, since even 1%may matter in the grander scheme of things.

I have been doing this for past hour, and I killed so much Shinigami that I lost count, and it seems there are no more Shinigami in the east side kf Seireitei, or they are hiding.

As I walk towards the distance, I notice a certain figure slowly walking towards me and looking at me with a smiling expression.

"Hello there. May I ask you what is your business here?" He asks me this question, to which I react with throwing one of the heads of the dead Shinigami towards him.

"Do I even need to tell you that? We both know why you are here." I say as I unsheath my Zanpakuto. His face starts to get more serious.

"What you are commiting is a grave offense, you know that?" He asks as he unsheats his Zanpakuto also.

"Just like Rukia commited a grave offense, am I right?" I ask with a hint of joke in my voice.

'There is also Byakuya somewhere close observing me, probably waiting for a perfect chance to attack me. It seems that... Aizen is there in the distance, probably watching me.' I think as I realise that 2 Captain-level opponents are gonna fight me. Aizen himself is above Captain-level.

"Well, Ukitake, why don't we start then?" I say as I shunpo towards him. He does the same and our Zanpakuto clash together.
