As the two Soul Reapers entered the massive cavern underneath the seireitei they soon split apart. Each walking a few feet away before turning to face one another. Jinnosule let out a challenge to Yosuke a seemingly simple task. All Yosuke had to do was shake his hand? Yosuke wasn't entirely sure the difficulty in such a task. That was of course until it hit him. Just like before a massive wave of Spiritual Pressure came crushing down on Yosuke. This time however it was far more potent and abundant than before. Yosukes entire body froze a second being shocked from the sudden force pushing down on him. Dropping him down onto his knees he panted as sweat quickly covered his brow."Focus damn it focus!"
Yosuke thought these words to himself as he tried to collect his thoughts for a moment. He took as deep and calm breaths as he possibly could given the circumstances in an attempt to control the fear that had just gripped him from the tremendous show of power. On his knees, Yosuke looked up seeing Jinnosuke still releasing his power. It was evident the man would not let up. He grit his teeth and smashed his fist into the ground. Such an incredible and overwhelming force, Yosuke had only felt so defeated a few times in his life he was tired of it he was tired of being weak, tired of running, tired of feeling the depth of this loneliness.
"So are you ready to stand and fight now Yosuke? or will you simply what were the words you used to Jinnosuke what was it run away like a dog with your tail between your legs?"
Yosukes eyes gaped wide hearing this voice. It was the voice of his Zanpakuto, Kōri no kesshō. Now out of everything his Zanpakuto was challenging him. Berating him in her usual foul mannerisms as she always did. Only this time it felt different. She was being insulting, but was it for the sake of insult? or the sake of angering Yosuke? perhaps both? In any event, Yosuke closed his eyes and focused his own Spiritual Pressure leaking out now, not nearly as potent or powerful as Jinnosukes but it was enough. A veil of aura began to expanse around Yosuke as he released his power. Light snowflakes began to swirl and fade around him as a thin white shroud of energy surrounded his body. A low creeping fog began to hover around the area mid-shin level in height as the temperature began to drop substantially.
This was the power of Yosukes Reiatsu, it was able to affect the temperature and weather in varying levels depending on the amount of energy he released. Slowly Yosuke stood after releasing his own reiatsu and through his willpower, he was able to stand up. Sweat drenched at the shoulders of his Shihakushō. He smirked as he stared wide-eyed at Jinnosukes sheer strength. He seemed to be paralyzed by shock, and while that was the case initially. Now Yosuke was excited trembling with it as he stared Jinnosuke down.
He wasn't about to shake this mans hand as that would be to easy to leave him open for an attack, He was sure Jinnosuke was powerful and strong, that however was not going to stop him from learning all he could from this man. Yosuke slowly dropped his left hand on the end of his Zanpakutos scabbard, just underneath the handguard of his zanpakuto. His right hand hovering a mere inch over the handle of his zanpauto itself. He positioned himself preparing to attack. Instances like these typically there are only two reactions when confronted in such a manner. First, being you back the hell out, second being you get the hell in there. Yosuke was not about to show weakness primarily because that would dishonor the Kuchiki name and despite his differences with his family on personality levels, he was not about to dishonor them now.
Yosuke prepared himself mentally and in a flash, he was gone hurling towards Jinnosuke at incredible speeds. The ground where he previously stood had been cracked and torn asunder under the weight of his movement. One might think Yosuke had utilized a shunpo, while that may be what it seemed like given the speed he actually performed and incredibly powerful and highspeed dashing technique. This technique is a move created by Yosuke known as the Bakuhatsu kaminari: (爆発雷, Exploding Thunder). During his initial movement towards Jinnosuke, Yosuke would have grasped the handle of his blade and prepared for his assault during his closing of the gap between the two. Wasting no energy of time preparing and unleashing his attack resulting in its maximum efficiency.
Yosuke was at least in his mind fairly proficient in Zanjutsu and it was his primary fighting style, upon closing the distance between the two Yosuke drew his blade with a blinding flash of speed. His blade used the friction of the blade edge running along the sheath to drastically increase the speed in which sword is both drawn and swung, giving it an extra boost in speed to those who might be caught unawares. Youskes blade was aimed at Jinnosukes mid-section intending to slash across his chest area. If this was successful Yosuke despite his speed and power behind his attack would only manage to cut an inch or two deep into Jinnosukes chest area given the vast difference in their power.
If this initial attack was unsuccessful primarily dodged, and Jinnosuke was still within striking range of Yosuke then he would more than likely fall victim to the secret behind Yosukes technique, The Yamakaze. During the Yamakaze, the user unsheaths their blade at incredible speeds intending to slash at their opponent before they can react. However, if the initial sword strike is blocked, or dodged then the opponent may find themselves caught unawares that during the process of the initial sword strike the sheath is pulled from one's waist loop and his swung in a similar arc behind the blade. This allows one of two things to happen. Firstly, if the blade is blocked then the sheath can come behind and slam into the swords backside, or handguard adding additional power to the sword strike itself. Secondly, if this is not to be the case whether blocked or dodged, as long as the opponent is within striking range then the sheath can be used to deliver a powerful crushing concussive blow to any potentially exposed section of the body.
