Book 1: Indra's Return ??

Chapter 29

"What?"

"You came to help me...Thank-"

"What's this?"

"Huh?"

"All you had to do was carry Rukia, and you're all beat up!" Ichigo said smugly. "I guess just running away was still a too big of a task for you, huh?!"

"Huh? What was that?!" Renji scowled. "You look pretty beat up yourself, too!"

"What did you say?! Is that something you say to someone who just came to save your butt!?!"

"You idiot! I was trying to thank you earlier!"

Suddenly a shadow appeared above Ichigo and Renji. A shiver went down their spines at the ominous feeling when suddenly they were holding their head in pain.

"You brats! We are in enemy territory!" Indra said as his eyebrows twitched slightly while smiling sweetly. "Act your age, or I'll incinerate you both!"

"H-Hai!" Renji and Ichigo said nervously.

Indra narrowed his eyes at them, making them flinch. "Hn."

"Sorry. I didn't think I should interfere, so I let the boy pass. Although him I did not feel." Gin said sheepishly.

Huh? Ichigo looked at the two katana sheathed on his brother's back. Those are...zanpakuto??! And two of them?! Is aniki a substitute shinigami like me?

"Ichigo pay attention." Indra interrupted his thoughts.

"H-Hai aniki." Ichigo said.

"No matter. It's fine." Aizen said as he looked at the two brothers. "There's no difference whether there's one piece of dust to brush off, or three."

"That's Aizen?" Ichigo asked.

"Yeah." Renji said.

Indra narrowed his eyes at the brunette captain.

"Do you still have enough strength left to get away?" Ichigo said.

"yeah, but I'm going to stay and fight."

"Hn you'll only be a nuisance." Indra said bluntly.

A tick mark appeared on Renji's temple. "Why you!"

"Hn."

"Humph. You know damn well that running away won't do, don't you? We may not be able to defeat them, but let's try to immobilize them and walk out of here." Renji said.

"Hah! I got no choice."

"All right, then! Let's fight together! Will you join us aniki."

"Hn, of course." Indra said as a bloodthirsty grin appeared on his face that made everyone shiver.

"Right!" Renji said. " I can only use this technique once...But if it hits, the enemy will be left open.

"Strike in the opening."

"Got it/Hn." Ichigo and Indra said.

This may hurt a bit but please hang in there, Zubimaru...Renji thought as he slammed his zanpakuto to the ground. "Let's go, Zubimaru!"

As Renji released his Bankai Indra took out Hyakki Yagyō. "March on, Hyakki Yagyō." he mumbled quietly As soon as he said that the steel of the katana crumbled away leaving a long shadow cast a few feet below the hilt in its place.

Aizen looked at Indra's zanpakuto, and his eyes widened slightly. So that's his zanpakuto. But what does it do?

"You might want to pay attention to what the tomato is doing Aizen." Indra said mentally in Aizen's head.
