Chapter 45: Death of a King

Soren gave Zorin a look of someone who looks down on everyone but Zorin could not see it because Soren wore his mask.

[So… Will you make a move or wait for me?]: soren

[HAHAHA!... You may be strong but my attacks just a moment ago were just casual attacks]: zorin

[So is this telling me that you are playing around?]: soren

[HAHA! I wouldn't even call that playing, I will give you a chance to hit me once, after that I will take your puny life]: zorin

Soren's grin became even bigger and then he spoke up.

[Oh mighty King I jest, you are too kind…]: soren

Zorin's face became lighter as he heard Soren's words, he thought that maybe he could use this Human/Hollow Hybrid and make him his slave, then Zorin's face changed once more when he heard Soren's next sentence.

[I shall show this stupid King the path towards the light and kill him here, never look down apon someone who has unknown strength]: soren

[Brat!... This mighty King will kill you where you stand]: zorin

[Then come!]: soren

Zorin then launched back in for another attack towards Soren, as he came close to Soren, Soren made his move.

[Ring Of Fire! Form and kill my enemy]: soren

Soren never had any real move set so he decided to come up with his own, that was the beauty of his Zanpakuto.

[Burn in Hell… HAHAHA!]: soren

The Ring Of Fire expanded outwards colliding with Zorin, the move sent him back to his starting position, the fire was now spreading all over Zorin's body, burning him.

[You cheeky brat!... Die!]: zorin

Zorin used his Spirit power to suppress the flames that covered his body, when the flames ceased to remain covering his body he retracted his Spirit Power.

[I will give you this… You are the first that has made me use this much power in ages]: zorin

[I guess you should exercise more then]: soren

Soren started to make fun of this self proclaimed King, and when Zorin had enough of it he decided to make Soren feel real pain. Zorin then started to power up like someone from Dragon Ball Z would.

[HAAAAARRGG!]: zorin

Zorin's power started to soar, even to the point where the System started to give warnings.

{WARNING!... ENEMY POWER IS RISING RAPIDLY, HOST WILL NOT SURVIVE IF HOST DOES NOT DO THE SAME}

'Wow… Sakura has never done this before'

Soren was startled about the warning that came through from the System, he then proceeded to start his power up. Unlike Zorin, Soren has full control over his power, Zorin hasn't fought in ages so he needs to focus and force his power to rise, Soren just needs to slowly or rapidly release his power, doing the second starts to cause harm to his body though.

[HAHAHA! Yes, power up for me… I haven't fought someone as strong as you in quite a while]: soren

Once Soren raised his power to half of his full, he began to watch Zorin power up. As Zorin was just about finished releasing his full power it was just above 75% of Soren's full. Not fighting for so long has diminished his strength.

[Here I come, prepare to die Human!]: zorin

Zorin came up to Soren in a flash and swung his hand down smashing Soren into the ground.

[Oh? You know Flash Step?]: soren

Soren had spit out a mouth full of blood, his body took damage but Soren felt no pain from it. His torturous training has made his nerves system shut down, no amount of pain can make Soren scream out.

[I-Imposible, How can you take that strike?]: zorin

[Easy!... You're just weak]: soren

Zorin continued his barrage of strikes towards Soren, Soren blocked quite a few but quite a few also got through his defence and damaged him, spitting out another mouth full of blood Soren spoke up.

[HAHAHA! It's my turn now]: soren

Soren started to raise his power to around 90%, with this increase Zorin was now taking every blow Soren threw at him, he couldn't even dodge them.

[You… Just die already!]: zorin

As the fight continued on Zorin started to get his previous power back, then Soren was starting to miss his attacks or some were being blocked.

[Haha! You're doing good, keep me entertained for a bit longer]: soren

Soren then upped his power to max, once he did this the battle started to get dangerous for the Hollow's who surrounded the area where they were fighting.

[Why won't you die already!]: zorin

[I can't die until I have done everything there is to do in my life]: soren

Soren launched towards his opponent and struck him across his chest leaving a deep and long slash, then Zorin attacked Soren aiming for his head and left a deep mark along the Hollow mask.

[Haha… Nice shot, I guess I should bring out more skills]: soren

Soren then shot backwards to separate from Zorin and then started to summon his other Shikai release.

[Come to me Susanoo!]: soren

As Soren gave his command the previously Flame and lightning covered sword went out, and from behind Soren appeared a Smoky Black skeleton with Teal highlights appeared behind Soren. Soren then raised the Zanpakuto in his hand and the skeleton raised it's hand and when it did that a sword manifested itself into its hands.

[Wa-what is this?]: zorin

Soren didn't reply to Zorin but just gave a grin that Zorin couldn't see because it was under Soren's mask and then called out once more.

[Now!... Flaming Lightning, surround!]: soren

The skeleton's sword started to gain the Black Flames with Lightning coursing through them, the sword was now covered in this Flaming Lightning and Soren called out once more.

[Attack!... Flame Lightning Prison]: soren

Soren brought his hand that held his Zanpakuto down, and when that happened the skeleton brought down it's sword and struck Zorin.

[What!... No! No, this can't happen! Not to me!]: zorin

The Flames and Lightning danced all over Zorin and burned him to a crisp.

{DING!... CONGRATS TO HOST FOR KILLING ⅓ KINGS… REWARD (Soul Power and Soul Awareness 100+... Lottery Tickets 10x.. King's Soul)}

[These are awesome rewards… Sakura, where is the next King? If I take them all out I might get something special]: soren
