The epic battle between Zaraki Kenpachi vs The Vandenreich Leader aka Buckbeard is just about to start and it’s creating a lot of excitement within the Bleach Community. It’s one of those fights where we can guess that there will be one ultimate winner but the ways it’s going to go down is going to be fantastic.

The first blow was dealt by Zaraki but it was quickly blocked by his Majesty. We think that it was blocked using the Blut Vene which means that no damage could have been made to his Majesty.

Zaraki Kenpachi, one of the toughest captains within the Gotei 13! One which knows no fear and loves to fight against any strong opponents even if it’s a comrade. Zaraki has gone up against a ton a opponents but since they all die within the first strike by Zaraki, he gets bored really easily. Zaraki’s looks hasn’t changed much from before the 17 months. He still has similar cloths, the only difference we can see is that his hair is now a lot more wild, it doesn’t hold any bells now. The other difference is that his eye patch has significantly changed. This could be to a number of things, one which pops into mind is that he wants more of his power to be suppressed so he can fight his opponents and enjoy them more. This could a disadvantage in this situation. However we know how powerful Zaraki is, even if he lost against Ichigo, we know that over the 17 months he’s grown significantly powerful after he sliced Giriko in one go. He’s not yet learned the name of his Zanpakuto, if he did he would be able to increase his current power by 10 to 1000!

The Vandenreich Leader, aka Buckbeard, hasn’t shown any of his powers yet. It’s not yet been confirmed if he’s even a Quincy or not. All we currently know is that he’s extremely powerful who was easily able to capture Harribel. If he is a Quincy, we know that he would be able to use the basic Quincy powers such as Reishi Absorption which absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere and combines it to form a weapon or to fuel their techniques. The Blut ability which includes Blut Vene, allowing them to defend themselves, and Blut Arterie, which allows them to use their techniques offensively. Ransotengai allowing them to use their body as a puppet even after their in paralysis, broken limbs or any other force. Heilig Pfeil is also a possibility as it’s one of the primary attacks a Quincy has. The Vandenreich Leader could also use the Quincy: Vollstandig, as well as the Biskiel and the Sklaverei which allows the user to enslave the Reishi in the most powerful way.

So who do you think will take the win? Is it going to be the powerful Quincy Leader or the Captain of the 11th Division? Comment and tell me who you think will take this win. The fantastic image of the characters was drawn by Bl4ckBurn, he’s an awesome artist, check him out!
