As Unohana runs in front she is able to make a clear path.
Ichigo: “Wow…with captain level reaitsu the path is so clear. It’s really
shocking the difference…”
Unohana: “As far as reiatsu goes you are similar.
From the looks of things your wounds are healed, so even at 100% your
reiatsu is rough, and so not suitable for doing this.”
Ichigo: “That’s not true! If my reiatsu were 100% I’d be much better!”
Unohana: “My, your eyes are opened too wide for you to be sleep talking.”
Ichigo: “Hey, isn’t that harsh?! I mean, I’m not sleep talking or joking!!
Look at this! I only have my sleeve.
When I use bankai my clothes change. Somehow these clothes are like they are part of my bankai.

As proof when Inoue healed my wounds my clothes were only restored a bit.
I was wondering why whenever Inoue healed me that my clothes were fixed as well.
Somehow Inoue heals wounds quickly, but restoring reiatsu appears to be slower.
When I rushed down after Rukia and the others were defeated…my reiatsu
That’s why my reiatsu is that way!
If it were completely restored…”
Unohana is surprised. (”His clothes are only half of normal, so does that mean
his reiatsu is half?”
Ichigo: “?”
Unohana: “Was I mistaken in thinking that his reiatsu which rivals captains was 100%?”
Unohana: “…Kurosaki-san, please run in front.”
If you continue the movement from here your reiatsu will be restored to its limit.”
Ichigo: “Movement…while I’m running? I don’t think it…”
Unohana: “It can. Initially, healing with kido in many cases restores the reiatsu first.

One Piece Manga Spoiler

Attention: No One Piece Manga this week the author is taking a break. It will be back next week. We will wait for the release. You can read the One Piece prediction brought to us by Onepiece-spoilers.

Pridection Title: Path Chosen

Akinu: Curses Whitebeard isn't going to fight his allies like I had hoped.

Sengoku: Akinu your strategy succeeded in injuring Whitebeard but you and I both know that a simple stab as that won't stop Whitebeard, let alone slow him down.

Squad: Was I truly tricked, but how does that explain the marines only killing New World Pirates?

Marco: Akinu probably instructed the marines and their captains to attack only New World Pirates to make the betrayal all the more convincing. Plus there are A LOT more New World pirates than there are Whitebeard Pirates so it makes sense that it is much easier to target New World Pirates than the fewer Whitebeard Pirates.

Long before Naruto came to be, a Kyuubi (demon fox) with great fury and power waged war taking many lives. The battle ensued for a long time until a man known as the Fourth Hokage, Yondaime, the strongest ninja in Konoha, fiercely fought the Kyuubi.
