Bleach 572 see’s the return of Zaraki Kenpachi into the chapter as he notices Yachiru’s powers are low and he’s arrived to help her. A new Quincy by the name of Guremi is introduced to which he obliterates Gwenael within seconds. It seems that this new Stern Ritter’s powers is to make whatever things he faces into whatever his imagination desires. It also seems that he’s killed Kensei and Rojuro while he doesn’t have a weapon on him. Are they really dead or is his power already activated and Kensei and Rojuro falsely dead, and is Kenpachi really there?
Bleach 572 begins as Isane looks upon Yachiru’s Shikai. Yachiru then makes a cheer for which the other two beings behind her follow her exact movement. Isane mentions that her Shikai is not something that creates a living being like Unohana’s, nor is it made of living material like Toshiro’s. The Shikai hasn’t transformed her katana, it also hasn’t appeared as the embodiment of tempering Bankai like the true form of a Zanpakuto.
She is unable to believe that such a Shikai exists. Gwenael shows himself with his face bleeding. Yachiru mentions that she thought he was cut in two. Gwenael mentions that after she revealed her trick he was able to dodge it. He then mentions that he’s been able to use his technique to disappear just in time.
However seconds later he’s hit by something to which his left side is totally removed, he cannot believe it, seconds later Isane notices a boy within the healing barriers of where Rojuro and Kensei are. Gwenael begins to mentions that he did try his best, the Quincy replies by saying that yes he did and refers to him as his product of his fantasy.
Isane doesn’t know whats going on, Gwenael begins to mention that he can still fight, the Quincy mentions that he seems to have a really good ability and is able to even vanish from his memory. Gwenael shouts a name, Guremi, to which it seems that it’s the name of the Quincy within the barrier. Guremi mentions that doesn’t seem to know who he is and the future he knew, he no longer knows.
Seconds later we see Gwenael’s body fly everywhere. Guremi mentions that if they’re concerned about these officers, they do not need to get worked up about it since he’s already killed them. Isane enters the barrier and checks if they have a pulse but it seems that they do not! Kensei and Rojuro may be dead!
Seconds later Yachiru attacks with her technique while Guremi just stands down. He mentions that after seeing her technique in use, it’s impossible that she will hit him. Seconds later when Yachiru tries to attack he grabs her hand and Yachiru seems to have dropped her sword.
Yachiru feels her hand breaking, Guremi mentions for her to imagine the bones in her arm were nothing more than cookies, he asks if she had thought her arm to be broken and then mentions if her arms were both made of cookies, also wouldn’t the rest of her bones be made out of cookies too. Yachiru notices her hands and feet as though they’re breaking apart.
Guremi mentions that the most powerful force is imagination, he mentions that anything he imagines will become real. Out of nowhere a large explosion appears to which a familiar voice pierces through mentioning that Yachiru’s reiatsu was getting low so he decided to see what was going on. Zaraki Kenpachi appears mentioning that imagine his surprise to find the little boy causing all the ruckus. Bleach 572 ends here.
This was a very surprising chapter, I highly doubt that Zaraki is there, and Kensei and Rojuro are dead. What is happening to Yachiru is nothing more than stuff which Guremi is doing. I think that Zaraki is still underground and talking to his sword, plus his Zanpakuto would most likely be brand new if he was to renew and find out the name. Can’t wait to see what happens during next week’s Bleach 573, it’s going to be epic!

Well this was interesting. Maybe this kid shares a letter with another stern ritter.

Maybe, do you believe that Zaraki is there or do you think it’s an illusion/imagination from the Gerumi kid?

Probably not. This Stern Ritter kids power seems to only work if he touches you. He probably touched Rojuiro and Kensei so to Isane they seem dead but there not. I’m sure wants Zaraki kills this brat his imagination will be gone. I think he’s either a new letter or he shares the letter F for Fantasy, or I for Imagine.

Well if Zaraki is not Guremi Imagination than he should be careful. Maybe not listen to him. Like Zaraki couldn’t hear Berenice when Jerome was using the Roar. So The Question couldn’t work. So maybe if Zaraki ignores Guremi’s arrogant talks, maybe he’ll not be under the effects of Guremi’s imagination.

I’m thinking that Zaraki is the real MCCoy, but we’ll see. I definitely wouldn’t be shocked if he’s part of the imagination. Still, Guremi’s ability is too hacked right now, so I’m sure that it has limitations. Maybe the illusions don’t work if the opponent does not imagine it as well. Reality Warping is pretty rare and that’s what his power would amount to if there were no limits. Too bad Touma isn’t here with his Illusion Breaker…

I don’t think the other captains have died either, but yeah it’s a pretty overpowered technique.
LikeLike
Well Guremi’s ability does seem overpowered. But like I said, if Yachiru can just imagine herself fine and not listen to Guremi, she can probably negate this ability. Plus I can tell Guremi is highly arrogant in his abilities. Kinda like Barragon’s old age ability. He was extremely arrogant. So hopefully this kid will get so full of himself that Zaraki can just one hit K O him.

if it’s indeed Zaraki, I would be very disappointed. that lazy isane hasn’t done anything. when is she planing to release her bankai and help yachiro. she was a lieutenant of the most powerful captain, is high time she proves herself. and still I want to see if yachiro has a bankai or not.

Well she’s worried about Kensei and Rojuro. I mean unlike Unohana, Isane seems more of a Healer first, fighter second. Like Hachi too. Once she sees that Guremi’s ability is probably just an illusion, she can fight as well.

Don’t worry we will. Remember this mission that Isane and Yachiru are on is to get medical and other supplies to help Rojuro and Kensei. I highly doubt those two are dead. Guremi probably just let Isane think that they are dead. And who knows Guremi could put up a good fight or get killed in one hit. Who knows.

I am skeptical as well, Rose and Kensei seem completelty unscathed, this is probably a scare tactic of Guremi, who i have a feeling is the true stern ritter V, perhaps The Visionary…anyways, Gwenhael seemed to be more of a nuisance than an enemy, all other stern ritter had some sort of awesome ability, all “Vanishing Point” did was become intangible and vanish, not very impressive. Im expexting a release of Kenpachi’s shikai, provided that he starts fighting hard enough

He could be SternRitter V too. I mean I called it when I said some Quincy share a letter. So yes Guremi’s power seems more of an illusion than anything.

This is true, Loyd Lloyd and Royd Lloyd shared The Yourself, and Uryu and Yhwach are Sternritter A. My only issue is this: Gwenhael was a product of Guremis imaination, as such he was likely a stand-in that did all the fighting while Guremi watched from the sidelines. I would pin this as a Master-Puppet symbiosis

I don’t think Zaraki will even use his shikai on this opponent. It’s too soon cos everyone is actually scared of Zaraki power. I think this is just a quick dash slash n go for Zaraki n will have to wait to see his true power yet.

Yeah agreed, he noticed Yachiru having less than usual reiatsu and came to help. Although I still believe that this is all an illusion from the kid with his imagination. I believe Zaraki is still underground.

In the off chance that Kenpachi is an illusion, Guremi will probably scuffle with him for a bit before tearing him apart, a kind of hope-to-despair tactic to frighten yachiru

Exactly what I think, for Kubo to bring that illusion and shock alive it would be best if he did. I think it would be something that would let Yachiru absolutely rage, i’d think that she also likes seeing him smiling and having fun, if she doesn’t see that she will definitely sort that out. We got a hint of this a while ago when she was interrupted while Zaraki was fighting someone.

Zaraki’s sword wouldn’t change appearance. He told Ichigo way back that it’s in constant shikai (remember!?). He just beat the living crap out of it since it’s been like that, otherwise, at the very least the blade would look newer. That bandage wrap might be off though.
As for Yachiru, it’s possible that this kid is just REALLY strong. If the minion had at least some power to cause injury to Yachiru, it’s no surprise that this kid could break her bones, and Zaraki said he could feel her reiatsu, so the would mean he finished his training and was on the prowl for some Sternritters.
