Kaizo watched as Rio flew back and landed on her feet. Kaizo looked down at his right hand as a small cut had formed on it, he then looked up at Rio darting at him, Kaizo quickly crouched down and slammed his right palm into the ground as a massive cloud of red smoke erupted out from it. Kaizo then shunpoed away out of the smoke then shunpoed from the ground, high into the air above the smoke as he aimed his right palm down at the smoke a yellow orb began to form as yellow energy swirled around the orb "Sprinkled on the bones of the beast! Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm. The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle! Hado 63 Raikōhō!" A powerful bolt of yellow energy taking on the form of a lightning strike shot down from Kaizo's right palm, the second it hit the smoke it shot a hole right through it. Whatever it'd hit would cause truly devastating effects...it may have been a bit much...but Kaizo was going to take this a bit more seriously if she really wanted him to...

As Rio headed for Kaizo, the latter slammed his hands into the floor, causing red smoke to envelope her vision. [i]'This Kido again... I know what'll happen next then'[/i] She halted and looked up. Despite not being able to see anything, she could feel his attack gathering energy due to her calm state. [b]"Show your truth in the darkness of light, HanaKan..."[/b] After uttering the release command, her Zanpakuto's morphed, smothered in light before it faded and revealed the transformation. Her Shikai was different this time, seemingly evolved into something more suiting to Rio, which also portrayed the changes of her soul.

They had changed into dual staff-like, doubled ended blades with coloured crystal hilts; navy blue for Hana, golden for Kan. She then lifted the top blades upwards, facing the cutting edges towards eachother before spreading the blades apart in a slow, swift movement, making sure to continuously move her blades apart without stopping as Kaizo charged. A crystal sheet formed between her blades, slowly shielding her face and body.
