Since Shiraku was already in motion and circling the hollow it didnt take much time fore him to cut off the hollow, where this girl Yuki was at. With the katana Zanpakutou in hand he leapt off the ground and sliced in a diagonal slash that went from right to left. The slash was aimed to try and slice the hollows mask in half.
It was just a natural area for Shiraku to aim for since it was its head and if you cut the head off anything it seems to die to thats where he aimed for.

Bukotsu had seen that Shiraku had taken a swing to the hollow's mask. He lightly came to a stop, seeing that the hollow had been purified as it feel with a dead thud as it scattered into tiny glowing pieces.
"Whew... nice one Shiraku, first hollow and you knew exactly how to kill a hollow," Bukotsu smirked, "Lucky thing that one was probably an unranked hollow, if it was C class or above then we wouldn't have been able to handle it," Bukotsu said as he fell on his back.
Unfoturnetly using that last Tempest Splitter had completely exhausted his entire reiatsu reserves. Only because he had spent a large amount of it during that small practice course, it was normal he was exhausted.
"So...Yuki...What are you doing out here?" Bukotsu said trying to lift his head up alittle to look at her. He didn't have the energy to stand anymore, "Oh yea, that's Shiraku...Shiraku, that's Yuki," Bukotsu finished before his head feel back.

Shiraku was estatic that he was able to kill the hollow in his first slice and his first time up against a real hollow. Though when Bukotsu notted that it was probably an unranked hollow his *high* dropped off alittle. "I dunno I just always go for the head when I have a sword in my hands."
When Bukotsu introduced him to Yuki he grinned and slightly bowed. "Nice to meet cha, Yuki" he said sounding happy.

((I dont think she will reply for awhile..))
Bukotsu slightly sat up and scratched his head. His body was regaining his used reiatsu, as his body was still sore. Turning to Shiraku he smiled, "So, what do you plan to do now?" Bukotsu asked quizzicaly as he now had the strength to stand up with the support of his scabbard.
Bukotsu was in touch with his zanpaktou, but not anywhere near to learning his zanpaktou's name.
"Is this how you plan to protect people? No matter what, you can just sacrifice yourself, use up all your body has, including tapping into your life force if you have to?...just to protect them?" A voice resonated from his zanpaktou.
"Yes...." Bukotsu answered outloud without any disregard to whom was around at the moment. He pretty much thought things were just jumbled since he was out of reality because of his exhaustion.

Shiraku stroked his chin. "I guess I'll train abit in Zanjutsu and then I'll try and speach to my Zanpakutou." He looked around and he held out his Zanpakutou in front of him, first making sure Bukotsu or Yuki werent in the way. He slashed down, from head to toe. Then the X slashes, right to left, left to right, bottom right to top left, bottom left to top right then from side to side in the middle.
He waved it around as he did this and swung it in hard long wide slices. In the middle of a slash he head Bukotsu say "Yes". Shiraku stopped and looked over to Bukotsu to see if he was talking to him.

Bukotsu took several minutes before he realized that he was talking to a sword....
Seeing that Shiraku looked at him strangely, he took that he must've been talking to Shiraku rather than his zanpaktou.
"Uhh....did I say something I didn't know i said?" Bukotsu said giving a weak smile.

Shiraku still looking at Bukotsu swung his sword in various places. Adding low grunts to each of the swings. "Well you just said yes for no reason, it was just sort of sudden." Shiraku slowed the sword down as it came down from an overhead slice. Stopping it at it was angled, hilt at waist height and blade tip pointed to ground.
Shiraku felt the zanpakutou in his hand shudder, like its trying to get his attention. He glanced toward his zanpakutou, then back at Bukotsu.

"...Alright....Anyways Shiraku, what do you plan to do to have a stronger bond between you and your zanpaktou?" Bukotsu asked as he stretched abit. His entire body was returning to normal now, as was his energy.
Bukotsu turned his attention towards Shiraku for an answer. Bukotsu still had his zanpaktou out of it's sheath, "If you don't have an idea of what to do, how's about fighting with it?" Bukotsu smirked as he pointed his massive zanpaktou towards Shiraku. Obviously not choosing to fight here, he walked to where his usual spot in the forest was, giving Shiraku an oppurtunity to accept his offer or not.

Shiraku whole heartidly accepted the challenge by following Bukotsu to his training spot. "Well I though that just talking to my zanpakutou would get it to trust me and open up its power and companionship to me. But if fighting with it will help me as well then I will."
Shiraku followed Bukotsu his Zanpakutou sheathed once again.

"Well, lemme tell you this before we start, when you can learn about what your zanpaktou is capable of, and begin to trust in it's power, then you're all set," Bukotsu smiled as he came to a stop in the middle of the field.
He turned to face Shiraku, "Alright, nothing killer ok?" Bukotsu said as he held his massive zanpaktou over his head with the support of his other hand under the blunt end of the sword. He stood parallel with his blade as he took a stance with Shiraku facing his left side.
This was the stance of Amouri-mitsurugi-ryu, a very full offensive style with much forward movement. Getting in a deadlock with this technique would result depending on any factors against it since the sword is so massive adding on to Bukotsu's strength, although from this angle however, Shiraku stood alot bigger than Bukotsu, after all, Bukotsu just had an average build. It was strange however, how could someone his size weild such a weapon against Shiraku with ease?
Moving on, he was taking this seriously on account that he would help Shiraku communicate with his zanpaktou. Even, though he didn't have much communication with his either. This point of this spar was to test how well Shiraku and himself trust their zanpaktou.

Shiraku stood back. Slipping the Zanpakutou out of its sheathe and holding it forward in his hands, he made sure everything was lined up correctly, then looked to Bukostu. "Alright sso when ever your ready."
Shiraku took a step to the side and face him, sword at an angle so the blade was facing up. His front foot on the ball of his foot while his back foot held most of the weight of his body. Shiraku didnt really have a specific sword fighting system but he did know bit and pieces of stances and ways of attacking and defending from the foe.

"Alright, I guess I'll go first," Bukotsu said as his expression changed dramtically. His eyes seemed cold as he began to charge Shiraku, it seemed relentless, but this tactic had some genius to it.
Upon reaching Shiraku, he stabbed his zanpaktou into the ground and used it to pole vault with it in hand over Shiraku as he quickly gave a vertical slash downwards towards Shiraku.

As Bukotsu Pole vaulted over him he rememebered a move that he had seen this one time. He went to slash upward to Cut at Bukotsu but his own slash had crossed with Bukotsu's initial attack.
When the blades hit Shiraku slide his across Bukotsus and brought it right back across in almost the same spot on the zanpakutou. This was meant to have an aimed spot for Shiraku to focus on.

"Nice..." Bukotsu said as he took several dashes back to avoid contact with any of Shiraku's attacks. Running in once more, he spun his zanpaktou in hand as it gained speed. When he comes down with this swing, it would multiply the force by 3 times as much as a regular forced swing.
Getting closer and closer to Shiuraku, he would be ready to execute such force against him.

Shiraku could tell what Bukotsu was doing. He knew that spinning something that large and and aiming it at one thing, it would definatly penatrate a good defense. So Shiraku made it so that he would not get hit.
He scrapped the ground with his Zanpakutou, making indentions in it. Moving it in a swaying motion, leaving his head purposely open. While the force of his body was going left to right and visa versa, in a rhythm.
