Bleach: Infinite Desire

As Hitsugaya's Shikai command echoed, the blade of Hitsugaya's Zanpakutō transformed into an ice dragon, with a chain and crescent moon-like tail extending from the hilt!

With the appearance of Hitsugaya's Hyōrinmaru, Yu Mikami immediately felt the surrounding air temperature drop slightly, "Hmph~ as expected of the strongest ice-based Zanpakutō!"

"Go, Hyōrinmaru!"

With Shikai activated, Hitsugaya's eyes were filled with confidence as he looked at Yu Mikami. His Zanpakutō arced through the air toward Yu Mikami, the ice dragon attached to the chain diving towards him!

As Hitsugaya's Shikai battle commenced, the Captains within Seireitei turned their astonished gazes upon Yu Mikami's location. They hadn't expected Hitsugaya to use his Shikai in this fight!

"Slice through! Lightning Slash!"

Watching the approaching ice dragon, Yu Mikami did not panic but laughed heartily instead. He swung his blade at the oncoming attack, dark red lightning once again enveloping Yu Mikami's blade. Yu Mikami was eager to see how he measured up to a Captain!

Crackle—Bang! Yu Mikami's Lightning Slash struck the head of the ice dragon with powerful lightning, exploding with a loud bang!

"Impressive! I must quickly inform the other Captains of the situation!"

Seeing Yu Mikami able to repel Hitsugaya's attack even in his Shikai state, Rangiku Matsumoto couldn't help but praise him once more in her heart. She quickly used a Hell Butterfly to inform the other Captains of everything happening here!

"Hmph~ Freeze him, Hyōrinmaru!"

Hitsugaya again swung his blade through the air at Yu Mikami, and the ice dragon, pushed back by Yu Mikami, soared once more, charging toward Yu Mikami with renewed ferocity!

"Want to freeze me? It's not that easy!"

Hearing this, Yu Mikami smiled, and his Thunder Slash once again emitted powerful, radiant lightning as he struck at the ice dragon!

Crackle—However, as Yu Mikami's Thunder Slash struck the head of the ice dragon, Yu Mikami's expression subtly changed. The originally solid ice dragon suddenly transformed into a stream of icy water. Yu Mikami's Lightning Slash passed straight through, and the divided icy current shot past Yu Mikami on both sides!

Crack, crack—Yu Mikami then felt his body stiffen as ice began to form on both sides of his body, even freezing his feet!

Then, Yu Mikami sensed the cold increase again as Hitsugaya appeared before him, holding his blade aloft and regarding him with disdain!

"I can't have you looking better than me; I won't allow you to be more arrogant than me..."

Hitsugaya thought to himself with a cold snort, then said to Yu Mikami while swinging his Zanpakutō towards the frozen Yu Mikami, "As a Captain, I'm not someone you can contend with..."

"Is that so?..."

Yu Mikami replied with a faint, dismissive smile, not even glancing at the Zanpakutō coming down at him. His expression clearly conveyed to Hitsugaya that even if he was cut, it wouldn't affect him!

"Hmph~" Hitsugaya involuntarily snorted again at the remark, bringing his Zanpakutō down even more fiercely towards Yu Mikami's body!

With a confident expression, Hitsugaya's sharp Zanpakutō sliced down along Yu Mikami's body from top to bottom!

Crack—The ice on Yu Mikami's shoulder shattered and fell to the ground under Hitsugaya's strike. But to Hitsugaya's surprise, Yu Mikami's body remained unscathed where the Zanpakutō had sliced, only revealing the muscular physique beneath his civilian clothes, which were torn by the attack.

"How... is that possible..."

Not only Hitsugaya, but also Rangiku Matsumoto and Jidanbō stood nearby with their mouths agape, unable to believe that Yu Mikami was unscathed!

"Slice through! Lightning Slash!"

Yu Mikami, seeing the shocked expression on Hitsugaya's face, was satisfied. He shook off the ice encasing him and swung his blade again at Hitsugaya from close range. Having spent a year devouring Adjuchas and battling thousands of them, Yu Mikami had immense confidence in his Steel Skin—ordinary Captain-level Shinigami without using Bankai couldn't harm him!

With a bang, under the astonished gazes of Rangiku Matsumoto and Jidanbō, the exalted Captain of the 10th Division, Hitsugaya Toushirou, was once again sent flying by Yu Mikami's attack!

"Damn it!"

Hitsugaya's face turned grim, and for the first time, a cold glint of killing intent flashed in his eyes as he looked at Yu Mikami. "Let's go, Hyōrinmaru!"

Hitsugaya leaped up, swinging his blade down towards Yu Mikami once more! The ice dragon surged with Hitsugaya's movement, sweeping toward Yu Mikami yet again!

"Hmph~ I'm not going to keep being your target practice!"

Seeing Hitsugaya attack again, Yu Mikami smirked inwardly. His formidable physique didn't mean he had to endure attacks head-on!

With a swift movement, Yu Mikami appeared right in front of Hitsugaya, his silhouette flashing through Hitsugaya's slightly narrowed eyes before striking with his sword!

"So fast..."

Hitsugaya was secretly alarmed. He hadn't noticed before when Yu Mikami blocked his attack, but now, seeing Yu Mikami move, he realized Yu Mikami was even faster than him!

Hitsugaya quickly attempted to block Yu Mikami's Lightning Slash with his own blade, while the ice dragon, commanded by Hitsugaya's swing, aimed for Yu Mikami's back!

"Hmph~ Your combat experience is strong, but unfortunately, I don't fear your attacks at all!"

Sensing the threat behind him, Yu Mikami gave Hitsugaya a cold smile. To Hitsugaya's amazement, Yu Mikami ignored the ice dragon's assault and brought his Thunder Slash crashing down onto Hitsugaya's horizontal Hyōrinmaru!

Boom—a massive sound erupted as Hitsugaya, unable to withstand Yu Mikami's strike, was sent hurtling backward!

Crash—he slammed into the ground, creating a large crater, with cracks spreading outward!

Bang—and simultaneously, Yu Mikami's body was engulfed by Hyōrinmaru's ice dragon, leaving him suspended, frozen in the air!

"Captain..."

Rangiku Matsumoto was utterly shocked to see Hitsugaya blasted down again by Yu Mikami. However, she was also stunned by Yu Mikami's reckless strategy. Once recovered, she worriedly called out to Hitsugaya in the crater!

"Damn it..."

Hitsugaya stood up from the ground, muttering a curse under his breath, and spitefully glanced at the frozen Yu Mikami, feeling a moment of grim satisfaction—serves him right!

But then, the cracking sound of ice shattering around Yu Mikami quickly dissipated that satisfaction!

As the ice broke apart, with a final crash, Yu Mikami appeared once more in the air, completely unscathed!

"Hahahahaha… So the Captain of the 10th Division of the Gotei 13 isn't all that! Beaten so helplessly by a mere ordinary citizen like me..."

Yu Mikami, revealed again, sneered mockingly at the disheveled Hitsugaya below!

"Yu Mikami! You've brought this upon yourself..."

Hearing Yu Mikami's taunt, Hitsugaya's face turned a shade of steel blue, and he coldly addressed Yu Mikami!

"Sit upon the frosted heavens, Daiguren Hyōrinmaru..."
