Chapter 50 - Chapter 49: Training Ichigo

[What kind of Zanpakuto is that? It doesn't even have a guard]: jinta

The Kusanagi sword had a Black strip going down a White base, there was no curve in the blade and had no guard around the handle. On the handle the Uchiha Clan emblem was printed in Red and White, this sword was the one Sasuke used later in the series.

[Give Soren back now!]: ichigo

Ichigo shot towards the masked man swinging his sword without any technique, the masked man meet Ichigo's broken blade and held him there.

[Young one, you must learn to weild your blade better if you would like to get your brother back]: masked man

[What's going on right now?]: jinta

Soren took a look towards Jinta and then back towards Ichigo before saying.

[You want to save that woman who was taken back to the Soul Society?... Impossible! That's why I'm here to train you]: masked man

[Why would I need help from you! I will kill you!]: ichigo

[HAHA! Then do it! Kill me, HAHA!... But I will tell you one thing, Once you try to kill me, I will hurt you and you will no longer have enough time to save that girl Rukia… What will you choose? Try to kill me? Or let me train you to beat me?]: masked man

Ichigo relaxed his sword but still kept it aimed towards the masked man, then he gave a sigh before agreeing to the masked man.

[I will train with you but only to save Soren and Rukia, after that I will kill you myself]: ichigo

[HAHA! Good!... Now, let's fix your posture. You can't go around swinging that sword like you do, it will only make you more vulnerable]: masked man

[What's wrong with my stance!?]: ichigo

[You may be able to kill some Hollow's like that but you will die in the first couple of strikes to someone who knows how to wield a sword]: masked man

[So how will you fix that?]: ichigo

[I will try and kill you… you must dodge until I can't get close to you]: masked man

[WHAT!]: ichigo

[Start running, here I come]: masked man

Soren then began to chase Ichigo around the room, as Soren would slice towards Ichigo, Ichigo would try and block or dodge. When Ichigo would touch swords with Soren, Soren's blade would cut through Ichigo's like butter.

[What are you doing there Ichigo? Do you not know how you infuse your Zanpakuto with Spirit Power?]: Masked man

[What do you mean!? Infuse with Spirit what?]: ichigo

[HAHA! So she didn't even do what I asked of her, I wonder if I should even help save her, HAHA!]: masked man

[Shut up! What are you talking about!?]: ichigo

[Remember? I told her to train you yet you have no idea how to infuse your Zanpakuto with Spirit Power… That is how you can control your Zanpakuto, watch me]: masked man

Soren began to raise his Zanpakuto into the air and a dark Black mist began to surround his Zanpakuto after the Black mist gathered a bit of a Teal glow emitted from his sword.

[Do you see? Now watch]: masked man

Soren then lowered his sword towards the ground and it began to tear the ground apart, he then began to walk towards Ichigo with his Zanpakuto making a big crack in the ground as he walked.

[T-this is!...]: ichigo

Ichigo had no words for what he was seeing, even Soren's pressure that was being emitted from the Zanpakuto was suffocating Ichigo.

[This is called Pressure Soffication, I can control my Spirit Pressure and make it surround individual people to suffocate them]: masked man

Soren then got around 4 feet away from Ichigo before releasing his grip on Ichigo, the glow around the Zanpakuto disappeared and Ichigo could move his body again.

[Now!... Take my attacks and learn to fight properly]: masked man

Urahara was surprised because it was the exact same tactic he was going to use to make Ichigo release his Shikai, but this masked man was using it for another purpose.

[...Interesting]: urahara

After around 5 hours Ichigo could now dodge Soren's attacks but he was now down to the wood handle of his Zanpakuto.

[HAHA! What! Are you going to fight me with just the broken handle of your Zanpakuto?... Let me tell you, reach deep inside you and pull out your Zanpakuto]: masked man

Ichigo was stunned as to what this masked man said, he then closed his eyes and appeared in a world of his own.

[Ichigo… Why haven't you called me?]: ???

[Who are you? I don't know you but for some reason I feel like I should know you like the back of my hand]: ichigo

[Ichigo, I want you to take me in your hands and call my name]: ???

[But I don't even know your name, what are you? Who are you?]: ichigo

[You must sense me out, if you don't this world will cease to exist… Now! Call my name]: ???

From the outside Soren was watching Ichigo stand there as power started to emit from his body, then he opened his eyes and spoke.

[Come Zangetsu!]: ichigo

As Ichigo faced the masked man holding the hilt that was left of his Zanpakuto a bright light shot out towards him.

[HAHAHA! Yes!... Now is the real test, thest name? Stay alive]: masked man

Soren lunged at Ichigo while clashing swords with him, Soren had a smile grow under his mask that Ichigo couldn't see.

[Remember! Infuse your Zanpakuto with Spirit Power or I will break this new sword of yours]: masked man

Ichigo was startled about what the masked man said so he started to feel his power and force it all into his sword.

[Don't put too much in or you will collapse from exhaustion]: masked man

The masked man was too late, Ichigo then collapse on the ground and passed out. The masked man then turned around a spoke.

[Give him some water and let him rest, I will let you take it from here… Make sure he can fend for himself in the Soul Society… Oh! And when he wakes up tell him one thing… Tell him Soren misses him very much and that the masked man is doing this for his own good]: masked man

After Soren said that he disappeared from that spot and left the Urahara Shop to head off the the Soul Society.

[Sakura, can I open my own portal to the Soul Society?]: soren

{HOST MUST BE LEVEL 06 IN (Spatial Travel) TO OPEN THAT POETAL}

[So it's time to level up just a bit then, this should be good]: soren
