Chapter 60 - Fighting Yamamoto Pt2

Yamamoto was on his knees looking at his surroundings and watching them as they burn down, the Zanpakuto known as Ryujin Jaka had set the village that Yamamoto cared for on fire and Yamamoto sat there and watched it burn down.

[AHHHH!... SOMEONE HELP US!]: villagers

Yamamoto sat there reliving what happened in his past and seeing it happen a second time made him hurt even more inside, when Ryujin Jaka saw this it spoke to Yamamoto again.

[You have pledged your life to me when you formed your soul contract… Come! Pick me up and leave this trash of a village]: ryujin jaka

Yamamoto couldn't fight with Ryujin Jaka because it was part of him, and if he disobeyed it then the Zanpakuto would burn everything down around him, leaving him to feel sadness and pain for the rest of his life. Yamamoto picked up his Zanpakuto from the ground and started to walk down the dirt road, as he walked he thought about all that has happened to him.

[I was fighting a boy who had weird eyes, he shouted Bankai and next thing I know I was here… Is this that boy's Bankai?]: yamamoto

Yamamoto was a smart man, he was able to decipher Soren's Bankai in a short time, he was only upset that he was fooled by the image of his past lover.

[I should be able to break out of this if I use Ryujin Jaka and burn down this whole place]: yamamoto

Right as Yamamoto said this Soren appeared out of thin air and started to mock Yamamoto.

[Oi… Old man, don't plan on escape… Once I use this move there is no escape, but you could wait out the time though]: soren

[What? There is a time limit?... Why would you tell me this?]: yamamoto

[Well I only tell you because this world is run by me… the time limit is 2 minutes and you have only been here for 4 seconds]: soren

[How is this possible! I have been here for at least 30 minutes]: yamamoto

[I can control the time here, you could be here for 100 years and it would only have been 1 minute outside, I can also take your life as well since you are defenceless]: soren

[You are truly one evil child, let me out now]: yamamoto

[Evil?...Hmm, I guess you could say that… I have been an Assassin since I was 2 years old]: soren

Yamamoto heard this and felt nothing but sadness for this boy, he had been forced into a life of killing since he was 2 years old. Yamamoto then looked up at the floating Soren and asked.

[So how long do you plan to keep me here? And what will you do while I am here?]: yamamoto

Soren looked at Yamamoto and then put his hand on his chin in a thinking pattern, after a bit he snapped his fingers and shouted.

[That's it!... I will make you see that same scene as earlier for 200 years, you can either live it out, kill yourself or I will kill you… Either way you could die from all 3]: soren

Yamamoto thought for a moment and then said with a not so proud manner.

[Will you accept surrender?... I don't want to watch my beloved die over and over, nor do I want to die… I need to be there for my people]: yamamoto

Soren thought for a moment, he sat there in the sky as minute by minute passed, suddenly he spoke.

[I can accept surrender, but there is one thing… I need you to accept a seal being placed on your heat]: soren

[Why is there a need for a seal?]: yamamoto

[Come now, don't play dumb… If I release you, what say you wouldn't try and attack and kill me?]: soren

Yamamoto was seen through entirely but was not even mad, he thought for a moment and then agreed to be placed under a seal.

[I will place a seal that will explode your heart if you try to harm me]: soren

Soren then used his Spirit Power to form a formation and used his will to form an intent into the formation, Soren had learned this from the system. The whole time Soren was thinking he was inquiring about this formation, when it was complete Soren placed his hand on Yamamoto's head and then released his Bankai.

When everything started to revert back to normal, Soren was standing right before Yamamoto with his hand on Yamamoto's head, once Soren removed his hand Yamamoto felt as if he has a pressure placed on his heart.

[Now, I will tell you a secret… Aizen has been plotting to access the Hogyoku in Rukia, if we had not jumped in to save Rukia, then Aizen would have soared in power and killed off all of you]: soren

Soren had come up with an elaborate lie that had some truth in it, when Yamamoto heard this he started to ponder about Aizen and his true motives, when Shunsui and Jushiro saw Soren and Yamamoto not fighting they became stunned.

[Hey, what's going no?]: jushiro

Jushiro and Shunsui had come by Soren's side to see what had happened, when Yamamoto looked at them he gave a slight smile and spoke.

[I have lost to this young one here, I will no longer wish for his life]: yamamoto

Soren then looked at Shunsui and Jushiro and took off his mask showing his smile on his face, the mask then disappeared into a black smoke.

[I would like to introduce myself… My name is Soren, I have been watching over Ichigo as he trained to get stronger. Now that I have helped you all save the Soul Society I hope that you can forgive Ichigo and let him and Rukia both go unharmed… I would also like to add that Isshin Kurosaki is his father]: soren

[Isshin Kurosaki?... Oh, you mean Isshin Shiba, the former Captain of division 10?]: Shunsui

[Yes, but keep this a secret from Ichigo… Isshin hasn't told him yet]: soren

Yamamoto had took an interest into this boy known as Soren, how could he know all of this, Yamamoto then decided to ask.

[How do you know all of this? Can you tell me?]: yamamoto

Soren looked at Yamamoto and with a smile put his finger over his mouth and cocked his head to the side winking his eye and said.

[It's a Se-cr-et]: soren

Soren then looked towards the sky where the Sokyoku is and said in a quiet tone.

[They should be done by now… Let's head back]: soren

When Soren disappeared from his spot, Shunsui Jushiro and Yamamoto followed suit and disappeared as well, when they reappeared they were all at the edge of the cliff watching Ichigo and Byakuya being treated for their wounds.

[Soren!? Is that you?]: ???

When Soren turned to see who was calling him he realised that he was screwed, Orihime was walking over to him looking at Soren in the Soul Reaper outfit that was slightly modified, Orihime then spoke.

[So where were you, Ichigo said some man took you… You gotta tell Ichigo when he wakes up that you are okay]: orihime

[He already knows… But I want you to tell him something for me… When he wakes up tell him I will be gone for a while and he should train]: soren
