Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, recently I wrote a prediction blog on Kenpachi Zaraki vs. Akuma. Which is one of my big dream fights for several years now. I figured since I did showcase some of Kenpachi's feats regarded to his strength & striking force. I felt to prevent confusion from Street Fighter fans to show some of his best speed feats that are canon.
1. Kenpachi can keep up with Byakuya while fighting Yammy aka the strongest Espada
This is impressive for many reasons. Byakuya is considered to be the fastest among the soul reaper captains. Even characters like Ichigo who can go very fast during combat has trouble fighting him. Now throw in a heated argument with the strongest Espada trying to attack both of them. They got upset since the other captain didn't want to finish Yammy off.
Which led to both captains defeating Yammy tanking some notable damage. Keep in mind, prior to getting his Shikai. Kenpachi was close in spiritual pressure to Byakuya being one of the select few captains to do so. Byakuiya has constantly shown to be a speed type character with his own impressive feats.
I should mention Yammy himself confirmed Espada isn't ranked 1 to 10 but actually 0 to 9. He quickly proven to be the most powerful Arrancar of that story arc. Yammy can absorb a lot of spiritual pressure during his sleep then release it in a massive wave that does include regeneration. Yammy's resurreccion transforms him into a giant.
2. Kenpachi can keep up with Ichigo whose one of the fastest characters in their universe
Ichigo & Kenpachi attempted to save Orihime from Coyote whose number 1 rank Espada. Both of them move close to the same level of speed. Ultimately they both missed as shown in this section of the story. If you seen Ichigo vs. Naruto episode of Death Battle, they actually clocked Ichigo to be notably faster than Naruto.
3. One shots Girko in one slash while moving fast to prove a point to him
Ginjo's group used Ichigo to become stronger but soul reapers knew about them. Ichigo was given a lot of spiritual pressure from many soul reapers including from the original head captain himself. Each member of Ginjo's group was given a portion of what used to be Ichigo's spiritual pressure. Girko quickly let the power go to his head to fail seeing the major difference in power with Kenpachi.
4. Kenpachi can keep up with Candice in speed
Candice is considered to be one of the absolute fastest quincies. She's gotten some impressive speed feats herself. Kenpachi was able to surprise her like the picture above not expecting Kenpachi to move that fast. Keep in mind, Candice is a electric theme character. By default she should be faster than lightning making Kenpachi being able to do that even more impressive.
Now I will point out a few bonus Kenpachi feats I felt should be pointed out. This won't be strictly in a particular type category. Also I don't want any real confusion after I showcase more Kenpachi feats in this entry.
1. Kenpachi destroys several buildings in one strike to attempt hitting Yhwach
Early in the series fighting Ichigo, he easily destroyed smaller buildings. So doing it again to attempt nailing a blow at Yhwach with obviously more force. Kenpachi has constantly proven to be a power theme character. Keep in mind, Yhwach effortlessly stopped his attack with ease. The shock wave following it is massive in it's own right.
2. Kenpachi carrying three dead quincies with no problem
Kenpachi was the first soul reaper to take down several quincies. He later carrying three full grown members on his back without any problems. One of them is an hybrid that has gorilla features. Keep in mind, to even carry one full grown person is heavy enough. A dead body is even heavier due to your organs aren't moving.
Add the average dead corpse weight while adding one more & a gorilla corpse. The amount of weight should be enough to back your spine. So I felt this is proof Kenpachi has ridiculous physical strength. Also he didn't even take off his eye patch yet in this story arc. Which makes this particular feat even more impressive.
3. Kenpachi knocks Yammy off his feet
Kenpachi by himself hits Yammy so hard he knocks him a little off the ground. Keep in mind, Yammy quickly proven himself to be the strongest Arrancar. Kenpachi didn't recover much from his previous battle with Espada Nnoitra making this even more impressive. Obviously this took a lot of force to pull something like this with ease.
4. Earlier in Bleach during his battle with Ichigo, Kenpachi slams through a wall
Keep in mind, this isn't a common thing you see in Bleach. Kenpachi slams right through a wall to surprise Ichigo. Clearly the wall itself didn't even slow him down is impressive. Most soul reapers wouldn't even consider attempting this. The fact he didn't have his eye patch off either is a testament to his ridiculous level of strength.
5. Finally I show you Kenpachi destroying several building during his fight with Ichigo
Yes Kenpachi caused destruction to this location with ease. This was proof why he must wear the eye patch. He could easily destroy a city on his own as proven in the picture above. Also it takes a lot of force to do something like this. Likely a small city explosion level at best but still impressive. Kenpachi was showing off his insane spiritual pressure.
6. Kenpachi casually reacts to Ceros from Nnoitra
Ceros are a hollow technique that Arrancars also has access to. During Kenpachi's fight with Espada Nnoitra, he was reacting to Ceros like they're nothing. Bleach has made it clear that attempting to react to a Cero can be difficult to do. But Kenpachi does that with ease in this one epic battle. Keep in mind, in the picture above Kenpachi is still wearing his eye patch making this more impressive.
7. Kenpachi shows up surprising characters including Ichigo
This is proof Kenpachi can be surprisingly fast for a powerhouse character. Keep in mind, Ichigo was weaken from his previous fight with Grimmjow. Nnoitra with his friend were going to ambush him & his friends. Then out of no where Kenpachi appears. Shortly following this, Kenpachi one shot an Arrancar with ease.
Alright I decided to further prove Kenpachi could tank some serious punishment from his opponents. Some of which I'm not going to lie can be difficult to watch. So unless you got a weak stomach or easily freak out, I don't recommend seeing this next section of Kenpachi feats.
1. Ichigo is freaked out Kenpachi still standing with his injuries
Keep in mind, this was Ichigo's first battle against a soul reaper captain. Who knew it was going to be against Kenpachi Zaraki lol. Ichigo easily loss to him before doing a quick training section. He comes right back for a real fight surprising Kenpachi. Both of them take some serious injuries during this particular fight.
2. Kenpachi attacks a few attacks from soul reaper captains Tousen and Komamura
Komamura's Bankai acts exactly like Stands in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure universe. This giant when dealt damage also goes to Komamura himself. He used it to directly attack Kenpachi that greatly damages the location they're fighting at. This force alone is impressive it didn't do much to a guy like this.
3. Kenpachi surprises Tousen while trapped in his Bankai
Tousen can trap his opponents in darkness to prevent their movements. So he attempts to kill Kenpachi to only get his zanpakuto grabbed by him. This is more proof his determination than anything else. Most would've simply given us in the same situation but not this man. He does slow Tousen's attack down a bit while doing that too.
4. Kenpachi tanking a lot of injuries during his fight with Espada Nnoitra
Kenpachi really took a lot of cuts from Nnoitra. I need to point out Nnoitra actually has six arms that each has a claw. He also has six zanpakuto scythes yes I know how can one keep up with all of that? Somehow Kenpachi was able to win against such odds by himself. Even Kenpachi stated, he needed to end the fight before he dies late in this fight.
5. Even after injuries that left him in a comatose state, he recovers only days later
Kenpachi got defeated by Royd & Loyd Lloyd disguised as Yhwach. This was following his victory against three quincies. It was even stated, they weren't even surprise if these soul reaper captains would survive. It turns out all of them that recovered with help does survive in the end. Kenpachi quickly goes back to training.
6. Kenpachi still fine after getting his arm gets completely twisted
This was done by Pernida Parnkgjas whose a god like being connected to the Soul King. Trust me, this thing doesn't even more sense than Yhwach himself. Anyway at one point, Pernida completely twisted one of Kenpachi's arms around. Yet he is still able to wield his weapon like no problem. Realistically that's virtually impossible to do.
There is a particular point you should turn your body parts because you can't move them anymore. Which can cause you to go through surgeries to fix up possibly costing a fortune. The fact he can still move that arm at even is mind blowing. I highly doubt anyone else within Bleach universe could do that.
One bonus Durability feat for the road folks.
Kenpachi in a weakened state survived blows from Candice and Meninas
Meninas has ridiculous strength from increased muscle mass. Now throwing in another capable of using electric attacks. We got a man whose clearly got ridiculous durability. He just defeated Gremmy in a fight, they felt ambushing him would be a good way to impress their king. Honestly it was a clever strategy for what it was.
Yes Kenpachi gets saved shortly after these attempts to killing him. This is one of the few times Kenpachi is wore out. Usually he barely pushes himself long enough to enjoy it. So this is a case even being weakened has proven to take punishment from two vastly different characters like it's nothing. I highly doubt anyone in Bleach could survive the attacks Kenpachi endured during this part of the manga.
