Ichigo's P.o.V

'What the hell...' I thought as i stared, perplexed at the sheer- no. the miniature... being before me. 'He- "HE'S SO SMALL!"

"Yeah? What's your point, carrot-top?" The small creature spat back much to my annoyance with the remark. "You. Bucket hat, get him out of his human body, he needs to be trained."

"Wha- Agh!" I begin speaking, only to be cut off as a walking cane slams into my temple.

Third person P.o.V

"What the hell Hat and clogs!" Ichigo shouts, stepping towards the shopkeep who raised his hands in surrender. "What the hell do you mean i need to be 'trained', you damn lizard"

"draw your sword, assume your stance." The small axophyll orders, using a unique spell [Command: Spirit] to force Ichigo to obey. "Widen your stance, lower your blade, slacken your grip, grip it so you can easily swing or chop with your arms and wrists. Hold it away from your body, rather than close to your body. You have a claymore, not a god damn longsword."

Immediately Ichigo's stance corrected itself, said person immediately noticed how much easier it is to hold his weapon.

"Now, Attack me carrot-top" The little Axo ordered, hands behind his back, scrutinizing Ichigo's swings to the smallest detail. "You swing to wide"

Swing

"Dont swing that far from your body, kid."

Swing

Dodge

"Swing from any and every angle, not just side to side or top to bottom, carrot-top" The axophyll sighed, reaching into what looks like a tear through the fabric of time and space, pulling out three objects.

The first was a black nodachi, a chain hanging off the end of the hilt, the crossgaurd having four prongs coming off of it in the style of a kanji meaning "Bankai".

The second was a red spherical pill.

And the last was the attire of a Soul Reaper.

The pill let the axophyll turn more human for an hour, roughly around the same height as Ichigo.

The frills on the sides of his head remain, but smaller and near where the ears would be on a normal human. After the transformation, Press snapped his fingers and the outfit seemingly teleported onto his body.

"Attack me again, this time use what i taught you to attack better." Press demands, further aggrivating Ichigo.

Swing!

Clang

Swing!

Swi-

"Good, you may rest." Press speaks out, releasing Ichigo from the spell he cast. "Now i believe you may be wondering how my weapon is able to clash with yours."

"Actually, I was wondering that myself Press." Kisuke speaks up finally, having walked up to the group. "Only Zanpakuto can harm a Soul Reaper, while yes a regular sword can block a Zanpakuto, the second hit from one would shatter a regular sword."

"That's because this sword, and every sword in my possession, are the same as your Zanpakuto." Press informed everyone, making kisuke intrigued about what that could mean. "And no i will not reveal this one's name, just know you'll find out yourself soon."

"Hmm, every sword you possess, is similar to a zanpakuto you say?" Kisuke asks, more so to reassure that fact before proceeding to ask. "Would you mind sparring with me? I myself may have gotten rusty with my swordsmanship."

"Only if you use your Shikai." Press responds to the request, getting a nod from the shopkeep in response to his condition. "However, i'll be using a different blade."

"Awaken, Benehime!" Kisuke calls out after he unsheathes his zanpakuto from his cane. The hidden sword taking the form of a shikomizue after he called out the release. "Ready when you are."

"As you wish." Press smiles as he obliges, reaching into the rip again, pulling out a shikomizue of his own, an exact copy as the one the ex-captain has, making kisuke's eyes widen in disbelief. "What's wrong~? You look like you've seen the impossible~"

"Because i did, you shouldnt be able to have that blade!" Kisuke sweats, a surprised tone in his voice as he looks at the exact copy of his own blade. "How do you have A Benehime?!"

"If only you knew half of the blades i have~" Press smiles deviously, seeing this makes kisuke pale at the thought. "Do you wish to back out~?"

"If i could... sir" Kisuke sweats as he replies, watching as the other male puts away one of his many weapons. "I-if i may ask, Sir 'X' why or how do you have multiple Zanpakuto that are the same as many members of the Gotei 13?"

"I come from another world" Was the response given to the question. "before you ask, i have access to your bankai and shikai, the head captains, Byakuya Kuchki's, Renji Abarai's, Toshiro Hitsugaya's, Gin Ichimaru's and a few others... i also have my own unique Zanpakuto, but she's... not like an ordinary Zanpakuto~"

"If i may be so bold... can i just call you Kurogami?" Kisuke inquires, the humanized Reptilian blinking a few times in thought before nodding. "It's not because of your name it just seems... Unnatural... So i was wondering if you'd like your own name, First name being Kuroi, your middle name being Ryu and your last will be Taigun. Together your name is translated to Black Dragon and Horde,  because Ainz said you're an 'Axophyll' Which sounds Dragonic enough to me, and from what you told me, you have a horde of abilities in your arsenal."

"It's Perfect. Thank you, Kisuke." The newly renamed Kuroi smiled, bowing before retrieving a dark red pill, which will allow him to switch between his small Axophyll form and a more human form.
