Oh yeah. This was going to be good. This shinigami defiantly was keeping up with Yuri for the time being. However, As He was attacking ZX, His eye brow rose in curiosity at the sudden increase of ZX's Reiatsu- It seemed like he increased in significantly, Almost like a Bankai. If that was the case, Yuri was going to have a ball of a time. It's been a long time since he fought a person in Bankai while he was still dormant, Lets see where it takes him. The Dark Enforcer was impressed at the speed ZX displayed to escape the diving attack towards the ground, Along with the ability to melt the spreading Ice as it crept towards him- Nice. For a moment, His eyes shifted from right to left, Noticing there are two afterimages of Zx that appeared from after that shunpo. Clones huh ? No matter, His speed was nothing he couldn't handle, considering the speed he had to put up with from Zefonse Kaizme- One of the Fastest beings in this Universe. His Twisting attack was blocked by a sudden entrance of a shield that made him crack a small grin in excitement; Sudden twists that made Yuri continue to guess. However, Yuri had a bit of a Problem, As he was attempting to Roundhouse Kick Yato Issen out of the air, ZX Countered with a Slash towards Yuri's Stomach. The Dark Enforcer was not a novice in anyway, Shape, or form, And it underestimate his reaction time would probably be the worst thing anyone could do. As he continued with the kick, Yuri Threw his hands in front of himself quickly, Twisting his body downward towards the Slash before Saying a loud.

"Seki.."

This Bakudo was mainly used for Defenseive purposes, And it nearly saved him from an otherwise dangerous attack. The bakudo shell formed around his hands almost instantaneously, Allowing Yuri to be repelled off of the blade in an Upward fashion, Launching himself into the air about seven more feet then he was previously before landing on the ground. That was a close call, But, Yuri never did anything without having a back plan in someway. Tsukuyomi landed on the ground swiftly, Making the Pillar of ice manifest around ZX, But, It was only an afterimage- Damn. And, Not to mention, A Large Blast of Plasma was hurdling towards Yuri on his rear flank since his back was faced towards it. His Amethyst eyes shifted behind himself, Judging the amount of time he had to react to such a threat- Not much at all, But, Enough to do something. With his right hand still on the ground, He "Pushed" on the Gaia below him once more to create a Cascading wall of White Ice Feathers to erupt behind him. The wall of Ice was about ten feet high, and four feet wide. He immediately shunpo'd from his location, Knowing that The wall would be met and blasted through after a modicum of a second due to the nature of his ability. Plasma. A chemical reaction at most. Appearing five feet to the right of his previous location, The Dark Enforcer stands there with a smug look on his face, Grinning towards ZX with a look of excitement. His eyes shifted to Yato Issen that was lodged into the ground about fifteen feet in front of him. No matter. Grabbing a hold of the Weapon that was on his right hand side, Yuri quickly unsheathed another weapon- His Zanpakutō, Teion-en. Yuri couldn't just try and feel him out, He was apparently serious in his efforts, Going Bankai.

"From sealed state to Bankai I presume ? Well, If you want to go all out, Be my guest- Let's see if it's all for show. Tosho, Teion-en."

Release. Spinning his Zanpakutō in his hand about several times, His reiatsu begins to grow as it becomes noticeable around him. From the Purple aura it begins to shift into a Blue flame like embrace. Yuri called out the release phrase of Teion-en. It then Morphs into a Ice Blue Scythe with a Purple Tassel at the end of the Staff Part of the weapon. The Blade Has a Silver Engravement of the words "Purge" in Kanji. The Reiatsu Yuri Tsukuyomi Now emits are a Dense Wave of Blue Flames that contact create Injuries to a Fine Degree. Teion-en is Said to be the Very Pinnacle of Fear within Zanpakutō. With the blade being about 80 Cm's in total Length, This scythe is one dangerous weapon. Along the pole-arm of the weapon, That same Purple tassel Now wraps around the entire thing, signifying That his weapon as Changed. The blade of the weapon remains the same length, Although, Along the tip of the blade resides one hook that hangs about two Inches. The hook is great for versatile uses, Such as hauling pieces of debris and sudden weapon locks if given the Opportunity. Holding his Scythe pointed towards The Shinigami, Yuri grins before placing his hands on the staff part of the weapon in a staggered position; His right hand was near the top of the scythe, while his left was near the lower middle part of the pole. Sliding his right foot backward ever so slightly, He Examined his surroundings for a second; Two afterimages of ZX, A Plunged Yato Issen in the ground, And a crater twenty feet in front of him. He would have to be smart to not get a flanked attack. Changing his stance to hold the scythe upward, Tsukuyomi rested his eyes closed for a moment, Raising his reiastu through Teion-en, Manifesting Blue Flames to cover the blade entirely. He looked at one of the ZX's before saying.

"Just because there are two of you, doesn't make this any harder..."

To anyone who hasn't fought Yuri before, They would just go on the assumption that These Flames were just colored differently- Not the case at all. Teion-en Zanpakutō with the ability to Manipulate Flame Based Attacks, such as Create Fire Walls or Domes of Flames. Although, These Flames are completely Different to many other Flame Based Zanpakutos, Teion-en has Cold Flames at his Command. Meaning, Although It seems Hot and Burning, The Flames themselves are as Cold in Temperature as Absolute Zero Now that he has mastered his Zanpakutō to new heights. These Flames are not Able to Create Frostbite on anything, Making Atoms stop moving if on contact with the Flames for over eight Seconds Creating Paralysis Or Repeated Attacks on the same Place; About Three Encounters if Under the Eight Second Limit. These Flames can be released in a Wake of a Swing or Simply Tunneled Throughout the ground for surprise attacks. The aura of this weapon can Freeze everything and anything that Yuri waves the scythe at, changing it into nothing more than a Solid statue. At very low temperatures of absolute zero, matter exhibits many unusual properties, including superconductivity. Unlike other Zanpakutō shown so far, resealing Teion-en does not deactivate any ability already used against an opponent. So, With his Zanpakutō Released at ready, Yuri lunges towards ZX with no fear, No hesitation. Getting within the Vicinity of three feet, who he hoped was the real ZX, He Swung his Scythe Downward Aimlessly, Releasing a crescent wave of Blue Flames at hurdled towards him; The Flaming tip was not extinguished from the release of the Wave of energy. However, He wasn't done. In case of a Flank attack, The Dark Enforcer followed through with the swing, Plunging the Tip of the scythe into the ground; The Blue flames seemingly being siphoned into the ground, removing the veil from around the blade. Tsukuyomi took one step forward, Lifting his left foot to be planted on the staff for a moment before launching himself into the air, Using the Staff as a makeshift vaulting platform.

"Don't slip up !"

His voice was filled with excitement, not even an ounce of worry could be heard from within his tone of voice- Almost as if he was having an extreme amount of fun. Tsukuyomi launched himself about ten feet in the air before twisting his body downward to land directly beside Yato Issen, Removing it from the ground without a moments delay with his right hand. From here, He would shunpo once more, Appearing on the left flank of the other ZX that could be seen, Looking like he was going to Swing his Katana to his Latimuss Dorsi before shunpoing once more. It was then he appeared on His right flank, His back faced towards ZX. He had an idea, Something he has never tried out before, But, there's a first time for everything. Without Turning around, Tsukuyomi Twisted his body to the left, beginning to magnify his reiatsu in a form of a slash, So When he Swung forward at the seemingly nothing, The actual "Slash" Mirrored itself back at ZX that was behind him. Not many people would expect something like that to happen so quickly, This would truly test his fervor for battle; So, If ZX attempted an attack on his rear flank, it would have been blocked by the magnified slash. Expect the unexpected. Something that Yuri always said to himself. From there, The Dark Enforcer would gain some ground by lunging forward from his position since his back was facing ZX; During the Lunge, Yuri contorted his body to face ZX as he was making his way out of the fray for a modicum of a second. He Slid on the ground for a moment before He pushed off into the air, Using his reiatsu to float for a moment. Looking back at Teion-en, He didn't have to worry if it was knocked out of the ground, Due to the situated flames already taken place.

"Tsuiga Bakuensou..."

Tsuiga Bakuensou is The Dark Enforcer's Favorite move out of his Shikai Arsenal. The Activation for this ability is nothing like it used to be. The ground underneath the enemy begins to shake and Crack with tiny holes that seep Blue flames for about a modicum of a second within the vicinity of 30 feet around them. At that Time, multiple Blue flame spears shoot from the ground at about Fifteen angles to trap the opponent in a prison of Cold flames. These Spears are able to range from nine to fifteen at a time as they are always on different angles and positions. They are able to shoot upward to about 400 feet, seeming to piece the very skies with a firing rate of 1.5 seconds per interval. Tsuiga Bakuensou fires these spears rapidly within the range limit until they total 81 to 200 depending on the power fueled. Yuri fueled the minimum of Power, Only firing 81 spears to be launched at ZX from all Directions. Each volley of the spears would come in groups of nine, until it reached 81 as depicted before. Every nine would be fired upward on different angles, Making it almost impossible to read where the next blasts would come from. Along with the time interval of how it fires, it incredibly dangerous. He held Yato Issen in a Defensive stance, Awaiting what would become of the Shinigami.

The Flame of battle, burning ever so brightly as this Fight raged on inside of the Rukongai forest. They must have been a great lengths away from the villages of Rukongai themselves, Or Yuri wouldn't have nearly been going as rough as he has been- Even at that, Tsukuyomi was probably only going about 55% of his Full ferocity against the Cybernetic Shinigami. Noticing that these afterimages are a bit more cumbersome then at first glance, Yuri's entire persona changed from his Heighten Excitement to a Deadpan Focus; Showing that He was going to get a hit on him- No matter what. His Afterimages were produced from the type of stance he was in, And He noticed that he hasn't changed from that since the beginning of the battle- No matter, Not many can't move at high speeds, dodge attacks, trying to counter attack, and keep the same stance for a long period of time. It was here and now Yuri was going to show ZX the gap between the two- Such as Heaven and earth. His gaze hardened into a Steady focus as He noticed another afterimage being ripped asunder by his wave of blue flame in the beginning of his assault. If He though These afterimages were going to help him through this entire fight, He was dead wrong. So Wrong. It only takes Yuri a little bit before his mind finally deduces the flaws and the way his opponents move; Considering that ZX's stance has been the same since the beginning of the battle, Yuri has all but figured out what to do in this type of situation.

"No more of this..."

He was so done with this. What's the point of battle if the person continues to never actually show his face ? But, No matter, It was there Yuri executed his magnified back slash towards ZX- Another afterimage. The Dark Enforcer gritted his teeth for a moment before activating Tsuiga Bakuensou upon ZX. It was almost ridiculous how he managed to Deviate the attack with his own barrage within the time it was fired, But, Once again, No matter. It's not like that ability was his trump card. His ears funneled in what ZX said before processing it- Please. Not going to let this continue much longer ? Did this guy know who was fighting ? It would take a lot more than this to take down The Dark Enforcer, And this wasn't it. As his ability hit the sky, making it Cascade into a dismal darkness for what seemed to be at least a hundred feet. There was no way to shunpo to safety, and He was about ten feet away from his Zanpakutō- Not much length to get there, But, Even less time to react to the lasers. It was here Yuri knew what had to be done. As the apparent countless Lasers began to hurdle towards him in every direction, Tsukuyomi dropped Yato Issen without Delay, Allowing it to fall to the ground. Holding his arms outstretched to the utmost Capacity, His whole body began to glow white before A dome of white feathers begun to manifest around him; It didn't manifest as quickly as he wanted to, Allowing three or four lasers to rattle his body- Burn marks making there appearance known within a couple of moments.

"Ugh..."

Sure He hit him with a couple, But, Yuri is extremely durable when it comes to attacks. His body stature may not seem like it, But, its like they say- Never judge a book by it's cover. The dome of white feathers began to whirl with extreme wakes of power, Almost making it seamless in how many revolutions are actually taking place; Every laser that came in contact with the shield of Ice was pretty much rendered frozen due to the chain reactions of implosions that happen inside of the target material. Each and every laser that made contact with the Shield more than once was shattered on contact, Leaving Yuri inside of it to think of what he should do afterwards. It's taking a good amount of energy to continue to keep the shield whirling, But, Yuri had an Immense amount of Reiatsu to use, so, Something like this wouldn't tire him that much at all. Got it. Yuri quickly bent his knees and expelled himself forward with three unique steps as he vanished into a shunpo; However, This wasn't a normal Shunpo, It was called "Enjo" (Succor; Referencing to Their Co-Operation): It allows for a movement at Intense speed and Precision footwork for a Creation of a perfect clone to fight along side him much like a Gelemos Sonido- While Using this Stepping Technique, All other variants are rendered Inactive Until the Clone Fades from too much Damage intake or reiatsu depletion. This Clone is Controlled and created by his Reiatsu, meaning it Can attack on its own; It Can Only Last for Four Posts and Requires a five Post Cool down time.

"If this was your Trump card, It needs work!!"

The only way for someone to tell the difference between the Two Dark enforcers would be that the "Copy" wears his Bodhi Blastia on the right wrist instead of his left. But, he was Sure he wasn't paying that much attention to detail considering the level of attacks he had to deal with. But, Nevertheless, Yuri's clone would continue to manifest the sheild, while Yuri appeared behind the Real ZX without much effort. Even though the Lasers were close in behind him, Yuri was within the same two feet of ZX before Manifesting Another Whirling dome of white feathers within the radius of Five feet- Blocking the lasers and Attempting to catch the real ZX inside of the dome. If he did, He would with three seconds of manifesting it making it Implode upon ZX. This would ultimately Freeze his entire being at least slightly if caught- The only problem with Yuri's plan is his fragments pieces of Reiatsu Via the clone. He could only keep up the same tactic for so long.

As soon as it came, It was over. The battle between ZX and Yuri had come to a sudden halt as ZX seemingly exhausted most of his internal reiastu while in bankai executing that ability he called "Rekkoha". It was a good ability, It kept The dark Enforcer on his toes for the time being; However, With the way things are now with his reiatsu consumption and his incomplete bankai, He will soon always pass out from something that strong. The sky soon reverted back to its comfortable blue, the clouds all seemingly disappeared after that ability took place. With the surrounding terrain looking like a mine field with all of the craters created from ZX's attack, Yuri's two fragmented beings faze back into one another creating one man. He stood over top of the cybernetic Shinigami before his eyes got a hold of what was happening; Rapid repairing through the use of reishi. He thought Quincies were the only ones that could manipulate reishi- You learn something new everyday. With the burns on his chest stinging slightly, Yuri from a distance reverted himself back to his dormant state, Not needing to exhaust any pointless reiatsu- Even though being in his shikai is as easy as breathing. Taking a seat beside the self-healing Shinigami, Tsukuyomi's eye brow rose slowly before uttering words to himself- And ZX if he was listening at this point still.

"Not bad... Your sword style is good, But, is lacking in attack power. However, You probably had other stances that couldn't be used- Am I right ? Well, In any case, That was fun for the time being. "

He laid down flat on the ground behind himself, Placing his hands behind his head aimlessly. Sighing softly as a red radius with three feet of his person began to manifest around him; This was his bodhi blastia taking affect in only one of the plethora of possibilities. Due to the Blastia being permanently on his body now, one could call this an inert ability that can be used freely without even a modicum of repercussions to his Reiastu unless fueled inside for more power for a obstacle. The Shokubai Shuen has the ability to control the speed at which chemical reactions occur. Yuri can increase or decrease the energies emitted or drained in such reactions of atomic structure. In this instance, Yuri is speeding up the chemical reactions in the skin to heal/seal small to medium wounds that would be otherwise a hindrance to a battle- Even the smallest cut can be devastating. However, Since ZX was within the same three feet, It begun to heal him faster then before. Only taking about three minutes of time to heal himself up to pique condition, Yuri sat up slowly before his amethyst eyes look on to ZX's body still- The aura of Shokubai Shuen still outward in an attempt to heal him quicker.

"That must take a lot out of you; All the more reason work out the "Bugs" so-to-speak"

After another two minutes of just standing there, Yuri glanced over to his right, Locating his Zanpakutō that was plunged into the ground. Walking over towards it with a nonchalant pace, He wrapped his left hand around the handle before removing it out of the ground and placing it on his shoulder. He was about seven feet away from ZX as the Shokubai Shuen began to fade from his immediate vicinity. His amethyst eyes glancing over the Shinigami once more before turning his head the other way, His long black hair following in waving fashion. Tsukuyomi walked about ten more feet forward before leaning on the tree with his back, looking at ZX. He was going to wait for ZX to wake up. Yuri rested his eyes closed before taking note on where ZX's reiatsu is; once he moves, He had a couple of questions for him.
