Chapter 428: The Zanpakuto Resisting Emotions

"I can't hold on much longer. Although these ghosts aren't strong individually, their coordination is formidable."

"I have no way to kill them all."

Jin spoke weakly; he had fought for far too long, and both the chakra and spiritual energy within his body were severely depleted.

Even the Zanpakuto in his hand had grown sluggish, appearing weak and powerless.

"I cannot stay here any longer. I must leave first and find a way to deal with Uchiha Madara next time."

"Let us break out together."

Jin extended an invitation, but Byakuya merely shook his head.

This was a mission assigned by Lord Ishihara; how could he possibly leave?

"Staying here will surely lead to death. I see you are very young."

"Let us leave together. With our talents, it won't take long for us to make a comeback."

Jin gritted his teeth and invited him again, for the Byakuya before him was truly too young.

If he left with him, wouldn't his strength grow much faster than Jin's, given his talent?

Moreover, the attire on this fellow looked incredibly impressive.

He could take the opportunity to ask; if he had such clothing, surely he would become much stronger as well.

However, Byakuya still refused.

"You leave first. I must wait here for Lord Ishihara to arrive."

"I have already sent a signal; he will definitely come!"

Byakuya spoke with unshakable resolve, while Uchiha Madara, who was absorbing the One-Tail's chakra, paused in surprise upon hearing this.

Then, the corner of his mouth curled upward slightly.

Is Ishihara coming?

Then it seems I can finally take my revenge!

Just because I couldn't defeat that fellow before doesn't mean I can't now!

"In that case, I shall leave first."

Jin ultimately decided to break through the encirclement; he did not trust Ishihara as much as Byakuya did.

Besides, he did not think Ishihara was all that powerful.

Of course, there was another reason: the Zanpakuto in his hand was transmitting an emotion to him, urging him to leave this place quickly.

It was as if the Zanpakuto in his hand did not particularly like Ishihara.

This left Jin somewhat puzzled, but he still chose to follow the Zanpakuto's will.

After all, this was no longer merely a Zanpakuto; it was his comrade!

Without it, there would be no Jin of today, and they had fought side by side for so long.

"Release! The power that belongs to us!"

After Jin infused all his chakra and spiritual energy into it,

the Zanpakuto in his hand transformed into a great scythe over five meters long!

Then, Jin was seen wielding the scythe and swinging it fiercely toward the front.

Seeing this, the group of ghosts scattered, for they did not wish to be struck by such a massive scythe.

However, a few ghosts with slower reactions were hit; originally, that ghost had relied on his strength, believing he could withstand the Zanpakuto's attack.

Yet, in reality, once the Zanpakuto struck, the mask on that ghost's face shattered directly.

Then, the entire ghost vanished into thin air, sent to the world of the dead.

Upon seeing that the opponent possessed such a formidable technique, Byakuya was momentarily stunned.

He made up his mind in his heart: once Lord Ishihara arrives, he must ask if there is any method to alter the appearance of a Zanpakuto

and release even greater power.

Meanwhile, after unleashing that strike, Jin immediately used Shunpo to leave the battlefield.

Uchiha Madara remained in place, absorbing and digesting the One-Tail's chakra.

Why chase that fellow?

The opponent's potential is limited, while my potential is infinite!

······ Requesting flowers ···

Besides, if it came to a life-or-death battle, the opponent would certainly not be my match.

But that fellow Ishihara once defeated me.

Now that I have grown stronger, I must at least regain my pride!

Moreover, those ghosts will pursue him.

Just as Uchiha Madara guessed, after the ghosts dodged Jin's attack,

they saw Jin fleeing and immediately gave chase.

Jin carried a vast amount of spiritual energy on his person, and they also wished to capture Jin to claim credit from Uchiha Madara!

Jin, who was constantly fleeing ahead, glanced back at those behind him.

.. 0....

There were actually four reckless fellows clinging tightly to his heels.

This made Jin sneer with disdain.

These fellows seem to have failed to grasp why I was suppressed just now.

Only four ghosts dare to pursue.

Although my chakra and spiritual energy within are currently insufficient, finding an opportunity to eliminate these few ghosts is no problem at all!

He could even draw upon his spiritual power from these few ghosts!

Thus, Jin deliberately slowed his pace.

His sole purpose was to ensure these four ghosts did not lose track of him.

Those four ghosts, obviously unaware of this, continued to mock him relentlessly from behind.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle, you've actually slowed down! It seems you're nearly at your limit!"

"Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh! Let us capture you and present you to Lord Uchiha Madara!"

"To be killed by Lord Uchiha Madara is your great honor!"

"Little one, I must admit, you are quite formidable; at the very least, you've held out this long against us!"

However, as the distance grew ever greater, these four ghosts finally sensed something was amiss.
