199 Chapter 199: Father's Wish!

The monstrous purgatory like flames instantly erupted.

Ryūjin Jakka, the oldest and most powerful Zanpakuto of the fire department, was liberated by Yamamoto, even if it was just the Shikai, it still made the environment of the entire training ground extremely hot.

However, the flames didn't last long before they were extinguished with Amagai's use of another sword besides his Zanpakuto.

All flames instantly disappeared at the same time.

Ryūjin Jakka's Shikai was contained!

"What is that sword?"

Yamamoto looked at Amagai's left hand. On his left hand, he held a tuning fork-shaped sword. After its liberation, the end of the sword was wrapped around Amagai's arm. It looked like it grew on his arm itself.

"This is a Bakkōtō."

Amagai answered simply.

But this simple answer made Yamamoto's heart twitch, Bakkōtō was thing that he hadn't heard for a very long time.

Immediately, Amagai spoke another liberation language. 

"Sever!" 

"Raika!"

The Zanpakuto in his right hand was released and turned into a peculiar Zanpakuto with a hook-shaped front end and bright flames lingered on the Zanpakuto. With the movement of Amagai's hand, the Zanpakuto in his hand slashed out, and the flames were instantly directed towards Yamamoto and tried to consume him.

"Humph! Do you think you can defeat me by using a Bakkōtō to seal off my connection with Ryūjin Jakka?"

Yamamoto immediately saw through Amagai's Bakkōtō's ability which was to cut off shinigami's power, but he didn't panic. 

He swung the Ryūjin Jakka that had degenerated into an asauchi in his hand, and in an instant, an extremely powerful sword pressure was slashed out by him.

The flame released by Amagai's Zanpakuto were cut open immediately, and then, the sharp slash swept towards Amagai.

Amagai couldn't help but sigh in his heart, even without Ryūjin Jakka, the strength that Yamamoto possessed was still so terrifying, 'As expected of the head-captain of Gotei 13.'

Facing the powerful slash sent by the head-captain, he quickly swung his own Zanpakuto to counter it.

However, Yamamoto's slashing technique was too fierce. On top of his slash, Amagai also felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

Even so, he still chose to use his Zanpakuto's Shikai state to fight against him instead of using his Bankai.

*Swish*

Yamamoto who had cut open the flames released by Amagai with a single sword saw that after the flames were negated, Amagai's figure flickered and disappeared.

"Shunpo?"

Yamamoto understood Amagai's intention, and slashed the Zanpakuto in his hand towards his rear.

There a Zanpakuto had emerged quietly, and slashed towards Yamamoto's back.

According to Yamamoto's expectation, Amagai should now block his slash with the Bakkōtō he possessed, and then he will counter-attack him with his Zanpakuto, so the speed of his swing was suddenly increased a bit during the swing, intending to put a little more pressure on Amagai.

However, the result was beyond Yamamoto's expectations.

Amagai didn't seem to think about blocking hi attack at all.

Instead, he let Yamamoto's slash fall on his body. At the same time, two swords came to greet Yamamoto at the same time, even though Yamamoto avoided the first sword, the other sword will definitely be a sure hit on his body. 

Amagai's purpose was an injury for injury!

However, compared to Yamamoto's fierce slash, Amagai's sword that fell on his body could not cause much of a serious injury to him.

Yamamoto's physique and reiatsu were too strong. After many years of training, covering his body with his strong reiatsu had almost become an instinct. This resulted in a situation where though Amagai's attack hit him, but it only caused him minor damage like some skin trauma.

On the other hand, Amagai, who was slashed by the Yamamoto's sword was dripping with blood, and looked very miserable.

Yamamoto withdrew his sword.

Looking at Amagai, who received his slash directly, he frowned slightly, "On your sword, I don't feel any killing intent."

"But it's another matter that I am curious about. It's this Bakkōtō, Captain Shusuke, it seems that you should explain to me that how do you came to possess this thing?"

Amagai sighed softly, "The captain is worthy of being the head-captain of Gotei 13. Even without your Zanpakuto's ability, your strength is top-notch." 

After praising Yamamoto, he released his Shikai and sheathed his Zanpakuto, and then, under his control, the Bakkōtō on his left hand also gradually receded to the tuning fork-shaped sword and was no longer wrapped around his arm.

"This sword comes from the Kasumioji family. It is one of the rewards for a deal between Kumoi Gyokaku, a retainer of the Kasumioji family, and me."

"Deal?" Yamamoto heard a key word in Amagai's words, and it seemed to him that Amagai was willing to reveal the details about these things to him. So he didn't mind hearing what Amagai wanted say first before taking any decisions.

At the same time, he was also a little curious about Amagai's purpose in doing all these things.

The other party came in front of him and abruptly mentioned Kisaragi Shin'etsu which made him have some guesses about his motive.

"The deal between us is that I will help him become the head of the Kasumioji family, and so he forged a Bakkōtō for me to help me deal with you." Amagai didn't mean to hide anything from Yamamoto.

"Why?" Yamamoto was a little puzzled. He was not only asking why Amagai chose to cooperate with Kumoi Gyokaku, a retainer of the Kasumioji family, but also why Amagai wanted to deal with him. 

"Kisaragi Shin'etsu, is my father."

Amagai answered all of Yamamoto's question with a single sentence.

"I see."

Yamamoto immediately understood why Amagai wanted to deal with him. No matter what was the hidden truth about that incident so many years ago, Kisaragi Shin'etsu indeed died in his hands after all.

It's no wonder that when Amagai met him today, the first question he asked was about Kisaragi Shin'etsu, and he even specifically asked if Kisaragi Shin'etsu died at his hands.

'It turns out that he is actually Kisaragi Shin'etsu's child.'

'He wants to avenge his father by killing me.'

As Yamamoto was thinking, he became a little puzzled again, "Since you want to avenge your father, why are you telling me about your cooperation with Kumoi Gyokaku?"

"Because yesterday, I learned some secrets from Kumoi Gyokaku."

"Back then, it was indeed you who killed my father, but before you killed him, it was Kumoi Gyokaku who first used him as an experimental product for the Bakkōtō's production, which then caused him to go lose control over himself."

"After learning about this, I stayed up all night, wondering whether I should take revenge on you or not."

"From the facts, my father indeed died in your hands, but if you look at the whole situation, the cause of his death was the Bakkōtō forced on him made by the Kasumioji family, which means that Kumoi Gyokaku is the real culprit."

"So you took the initiative to find me with a Bakkōtō today because you have already made a decision in your heart, correct?" Yamamoto also fell silent when he heard Amagai's words. He looked at Amagai, his heart was full of emotion.

"Yes!" Amagai said in a deep voice, "I only want to avenge my father, but if you think about it from my father's point of view, he's wish would have been to find the evidence of Kasumioji's crime and stop them from making forbidden weapons like the Bakkōtō."

"Comparatively speaking, in order to avenge him, I used the power of the Bakkōtō which is same as defiling his death."
