Yhwach is strong, and he danced around Ichigo, no doubt about it. But he didn't dance around Ichigo using Bankai and being at full power. He broke Tensa Zangetsu right away. The second time he was able to dance like that without even breaking Tensa Zangetsu was because, remember, he literally sucked all the power out of Ichigo and I was honestly confused when Ichigo STOOD UP AND CONTINUED THE FIGHT. Plus, All Might was a cheat. Aizen and Ichigo were literally nothing because of All Might's counters before Uryu came along. And likewise, Yhwach could have crushed Acnologia, all of the Spriggans, Zeref, and all of the Ten Wizard Saints combined. Simply because All Might is a cheat in and of itself, there is no counter. The ability to not see, but to DETERMINE what the future will be like, and also to be immune to any power he "knows" and even resurrect himself from the dead if he dies in the future... that's a whole other level of ability. Just a walking cheat against everything and any power. Which just proves that Ichigo's abilities are not just a fucking joke, but a REALLY DANGEROUS thing, since Yhwach, even having such stunning abilities, including determining the future, preferred to immediately break Ichigo's Bankai, rather than play with him. By the way, he went after the same Royal Guard and Ichibei even before the activation of All Might, preferring to avoid a direct fight with Kurosaki, although he could have easily (based on your logic that Yhwach is a priori stronger than Ichigo) sucked all the strength out of Ichigo back in Seireitei and received an extremely powerful boost. That is, there was something in Ichigo's Bankai that was many times more terrifying than even Ichibei's Bankai capabilities, which could well have been as completely broken by an imbalanced force as All Might himself.

(My personal opinion, similar to nonsense) I suspect that Ichigo's true Bankai had the ability to take anything for itself, including strength, memory and abilities (from the abilities of Zangetsu himself, when he was still hollow and essentially assimilated with the soul of the Shinigami and the Zanpakutō, effectively appropriating their power), as well as destroy something (from the disintegration of souls by the Quincy). In this case, Ichigo's Bankai was really dangerous for Yhwach. Because if Ichigo took the ability of the Almighty, then Yhwach would no longer be able to control the future and would essentially become a powerful piece of meat, but nothing more.

I base my opinion on Ichigo's pure strength more on Aizen's words and the action of the Final Getsuga Tensho. Aizen considers himself an ideal hybrid of Shinigami and Hollow, which is why he has such gigantic power. He is artificial and essentially needs the Hogyoku to become the core and catalyst of this combination.

Ichigo is a natural hybrid and not just a Shinigami and a Hollow, but also a Quincy. This is no longer, roughly speaking, X2 potential, but X3. In Shikai with Hollowfication, he should already be equal to or stronger than Aizen's strongest form simply because of his origin and hybridization of powers.

Also, remember the Final Getsuga Tensho and its real meaning at that time. This form did not give any abnormal increase in power, if at all, because if it did, it would have been performed by Isshin, who was stronger than Ichigo at that time. I believe that Isshin knew about the conflict of forces inside Ichigo (which reduced all this potential to 0) and realized that the Final Getsuga Tensho could forcefully give his son control over all his powers and eliminate the conflict of these forces inside him, thus Ichigo realized his full potential of pure raw power without any abilities. If he had a true Bankai at that moment, he would have been - just as strong, durable and fast physically, but in addition to this he would have unique (most likely extremely cheating) abilities and all the same huge spiritual power for various energy attacks. This is what I think about the real final and fullest power of Ichigo, based on the manga and anime.

Of course, these are all my thoughts. But if the same anime says anything with the statement that Ichigo covered a two-week journey in 9 hours and 15 minutes... Somewhere there are fan calculations according to which the Soul King Palace is located at a distance of 5.6 million kilometers from Seireitei. Thus, it can be calculated that Ichigo moved at a speed of 168 kilometers per second. And this is in Shikai without Hollowfication. What is his speed in Bankai and with Hollowfication...

So I'm not sure who could even fully fight back, let alone surpass Ichigo even without Bankai. He has no opponents in the Soul Society or in the Fairy Tail world. Maybe Acnologia will still resist, giving a decent fight, but that will be until Tensa Zangetsu is released.

Please update this too

Will you continue with the story?

Honestly about the Gray vs Chad fight, I don't really know. I mean we never got to see what Chad's new level of strength was in the TYBW. So if we go with what we do know of his strength before that then and what Gray's strength is now I would say yes. Gray is about as strong as Natsu, and Ichigo just said in this chapter that he wasn't as strong as a Captain or even a Lieutenant. Chad fought and beat Gantenbainne Mosqueda, an ex-Espada. Which are said to be on Captian level for the natural ones and beyond for the hogyoku created ones.

okay so this is endgame ichigo.

I really enjoy how you integrated Ichigo into this world. It feels naturally and I like the fact you don’t have him joining it instantly. Mainly ‘cause that’s what ichigo would do, with the vizords he literally told them he wasn’t interested in their club. So you’ve got Ichigo’s character down to a T.

What's funny about this is the fact that dragons do exist in the bleach universe.

Burn the Witch is all about dragons and mages.

Look forward to another chapter stay safe.

Will you continue with the story?

Please come back to this story it has so much potential please

I just imagine the opening song going in my head when the narration for the introduction of fairy tail end. God ! It’s been so long since I first watch fairy tail what a nostalgic feeling

Can't wait untill the next chapter!

Good to see a Bleach x Fairy Tail crossover, it's been a while. Regarding the first 2 chapters, I know that they're slower since the story is still in it's introduction phase but they were good and pretty fun! Regarding my opinion about the power level, most of the other reviewers already tapped on what I was going to say, the only opponents I think that could really be some sort of threat to Ichigo are Zeref and Acnologia.

I'm curious about the pairing choice as well, I like Mirajane and Erza and I'm completely ok if you go for one of them or even both as Ichigo's love interest, but I'm personally hoping for a girl that was never(or rarely) used before in a Bleach x Fairy Tail crossover like Millianna, Minerva, Laki or Flare as some of the many examples.

Loving this!

Loving this story so far and if you are doing a double paring i think it should be Erza and Mirajane because of the fact the used to be rivals and that could be a good laugh if that goes that route.
