Zanpakuto, Senbonzakura

First off, Zanpakuto means soul cutter sword. Every shinigami has one. When they get strong enough, they will
learn their Zanpakuto's name. When a shinigami gets even stronger, they will have to ability to transform their
Zanpakuto into other forms to increase their power during battle.

The name of Byakuya's zanpakuto is called Senbonzakura, literally mean 1000 Cherry Blossoms.
The swords appearance looks ordinary.

Shikai, second form
|
|
When he say the phrase Chire (Scatter), his blade will start to dissapear and scatter into several millions
of little razor pieces that look like Cherry blossom petals. This look is cause due to the light's reflection on the scattered pieces.
With this attack, he can severely wound his opponent without them being about to see the attack coming.
He can control these razor pieces to his will. To achieve Shikai, you must know what your Zanpakuto's name.

BANKAI, third form
|
|
Bankai is the strongest form of a Zanpakuto.Learning Bankai increases your power by 10x. Only few out of many are able to
achieve Bankai. One of the requirements to become a captain is to be able to preform Bankai. It is said that it takes hundreds
of years to achieve Bankai. Byakuya has 3 forms.
|
|
The first move is called Senbonzakura Kageyoshi (Vibrant Display of 1000 Cherry Blossoms).
He drops his sword to the ground and it disappears slowly. Giant swords start to appear in a straight line on both
of his side. These giant swords then become millions of tiny petals again but they're much stronger because they can swarm
together. He can use this attack for both defense and offense. When using his hands to control it, the speed doubles.
|
|
His second Bankai move is called ,Senkei Senbonzakura Kageyoshi (Scene of the Massacre, Vibrant Display of 1000 Cherry Blossoms).
The petals form together into many sword again surrounding his oppentent and himself. With these swords, he can hit his opponent
from any direction he wishes. The opponent's speed also decreases making them think that his speed is increasing.
|
|
His final Bankai move is called Hakuteiken (White Imperial Sword). All of his swords power form into one and this
white light comes out and form a wings behind him. This move is preform by using all his strength.
