"Boom."
Yamahiko threw a punch, meeting the kick from Mashiro Kuna head-on. The impact resulted in a resounding explosion, sending shockwaves rippling through the surroundings. Instantly, dust scattered into the air, creating a chaotic aftermath.

"Crack."
Yamahiko and Mashiro Kuna's masks shattered simultaneously, dispelling their Hollowfication.
"Not bad. Relying solely on fist strength, you're already able to withstand Mashiro's kicking techniques," remarked Lisa Yadōmaru, standing nearby with a smile.
Kuna Mashiro looked a bit disappointed and said, "Yamahiko, you've become so strong. I can't supress you anymore."
[Disappointed Kuna - img]
Yamahiko smiled and replied, "After all, ten years have passed."
Since Yamahiko came to the human world, ten years have passed. During this time, he has reached a point where he can hold his own against Kuna Mashiro even in a state of Hollowfication.
This is a result of continuous battles with Kuna Mashiro and the strengthening of his body using magnetic fields.
Yamahiko's current state is characterized by incredibly tough and resilient skin and muscles, reaching a pseudo-steel level(Hierro).

If he continues this path, Yamahiko is confident that within twenty years, he can develop genuine steel skin(Hierro). In that case, most Shinigami strikes may not be able to harm him.
"Yamahiko's Shunpo has also improved significantly, and his 'Fūjin Shunkō' technique is nearly complete," said Yoruichi from nearby, smiling.
Over the course of ten years, Yamahiko's Shunpo has strengthened considerably, with the assistance of the Shihōin family's technique, reaching the level of Yoruichi and Sui-Fēng.
Yamahiko's Wind('Fūjin) Shunkō technique is nearing completion, becoming usable with some effort
"Furthermore, in Kidō, Yamahiko has already mastered advanced Kidō," said Hachigen Ushōda with a smile from the side.
With the assistance of Hachigen Ushōda, Yamahiko had gained proficiency in advanced Hado and Bakudo.
Most of the Bakudo can be performed without an incantation, with power ranging between fifty to sixty percent.
The abandonment of incantations in Hado is also complete. Techniques like Raikōhō can reach fifty percent of their power, but for complex ones like Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō, the power is only one-third.

As for Kurohitsugi, Yamahiko is still unable to completely abandon the incantation.

"Yamahiko's Hollowfication combat skills have reached the level of Mashiro Kuna, and his Shunkō has reached the level of Yoruichi Shihōin. His proficiency in Kidō has also gained approval from Hachigen Ushōda. I intend to conduct a test of your combat abilities to see what level you can achieve when unleashing your full strength," said Lisa Yadōmaru, looking at Yamahiko.
Curiously, Yamahiko asked, "Lisa senpai, how do you plan to test?"
Lisa clapped her hands and said, "You can come out now."
With Lisa's words, Shinji Hirako, Kensei Muguruma, and others all appeared in the underground training ground.
Shinji Hirako smiled and said, "Kid, let us be your opponents and see you unleash your strength."

"What do you think?"
Lisa looked at Yamahiko, asking.
Yamahiko nodded and said, "Sure, I also want to see how much I've improved."
"Who's first?"
Lisa looked at everyone. Kensei Muguruma stepped forward, saying, "Let me do it. I think I'll need to use Bankai at least to spar with this little devil, so you better keep your distance."
[Kensei Muguruma - img]
Thinking about Kensei Muguruma's Bankai, everyone moved backward, reaching the edge of the training ground.
"Then I need to set up barriers."
Hachigen Ushōda said, adding a few more barriers.
Seeing their actions, Yamahiko felt that Kensei Muguruma's strength might not be as weak as depicted in the original work.
Therefore, Yamahiko didn't dare to underestimate him and said, "Kensei Senpai, please impart your experience."
"Bring it on."
Kensei Muguruma tightened his Zanpakuto. In the next moment, Yamahiko's figure disappeared, reappearing behind Kensei, slashing down.
Bang.
Yamahiko's Zanpakuto was blocked by Kensei Muguruma, but the tip of the blade was just an inch away from Kensei's face.
"Close call."
Kensei Muguruma was somewhat relieved, as he narrowly avoided being stabbed.
The reason was that Yamahiko's movement speed far exceeded his own, relying solely on Hakuda techniques, and he was clearly not Yamahiko's match.
"Blow it Away Tachikaze."
Kensei shouted slowly, and in the next moment, his Zanpakutō transformed into a short dagger(wakizashi), swinging lightly.
[Tachikaze - img]
A gust of wind blades shot towards Yamahiko.
Yamahiko lifted the long sword in his hand and slashed forward, boom.
At the moment of the clash with the wind blade, a violent explosion echoed.
This was Kensei Muguruma's Shikai ability, allowing him to control the wind, turning highly condensed air into threads or blades that attacked the enemy.
[Attack Ref. img]
The moment it touches the enemy, the wind can explode, causing massive damage.
Yamahiko was obscured by the explosion, just as he emerged from the airflow, several threads shot towards him, enclosing him in front.
"Such a powerful ability."
Yamahiko squinted his eyes, swiftly retreating. But in the next moment, a figure appeared behind him, a figure appeared behind him, thrusting a dagger.
Kensei Muguruma's speed isn't fast, but in front of Yamahiko was a net of wind, making it impossible to dodge, and behind him was an attack
Yamahiko, compelled, with lightning flashing across his body, went 'boom,' disappearing from the original spot and reappearing in the distance.
Shunkō: Raijin(incomplete)
Yamahiko had no intention of using his personal finishing move, which could even overlay with Shikai state. He intended to save it for the most crucial moment
Kensei Muguruma thrust into the void, took a step, and lunged at Yamahiko again. During the advance, he waved the short dagger in his hand.
Threads condensed from the air intertwined, and within the grid near the threads, there were gusts of wind blades, sealing off the space in front of Yamahiko.
Facing the explosive wind blades, Yamahiko's toe tapped, and his figure suddenly disappeared. He reappeared above Kensei Muguruma's head, performing a reverse stance and thrusting his sword down.
"So fast."
Kensei, caught off guard by Yamahiko's appearance above him, raised the short dagger in his hand to swing upwards.
Bang.
The short dagger collided with Yamahiko's Zanpakutō, creating a violent explosion. Hurricanes spiraled at the collision point.
Kensei intended to withstand Yamahiko using the explosive power of the wind.
However, with a loud boom, Yamahiko's sword heavily descended, pressing Kensei's Zanpakutō back onto his body. The back of the sword left a bloody mark on Kensei's body.
"Amazing."
Kensei swiftly retreated, creating distance, and looked at his injured shoulder with narrowed eyes.
Defeating his Shikai with just Shunpō, what an impressive little devil.
Kensei's Shikai was powerful, able to defeat any lieutenant.
However, Yamahiko had reached a level where he could easily overcome it, thanks to his continuous improvement over the past years.
"Kensei's Shikai, surprisingly, hasn't forced out even one of Yamahiko's Shikai or Hollowfication abilities, not to mention, he also wields Kidō." Lisa Yadōmaru looked at the battlefield and said softly.
Love Aikawa added, "Kensei Muguruma can't win against Yamahiko, even with Bankai or Hollowfication."
Rōjūrō Ōtoribashi sighed, "This kid is really terrifying."
"Senpai, why not use Hollowfication?" Yamahiko looked at Kensei and suggested gently.
"I will."
Kensei reached out, and a fully covering mask appeared on his face. He then rushed towards Yamahiko, utilizing Hollowfication.
