There are problems with this howeverAmlad22 said:Ichibei stated that "anything that is painted on by Ichimonji loses its name". If he paints on a tsb, it will lose its name and in turn lose almost all of its power. Toneri changing colour will only make it so that Ichibei cannot take the tsb's power. However he can still easily cancel it out. Ichibei has to go shikai to blot things out with ichimonji. In his base form he can only cut things in half. If Toneri starts to use a crap ton of tsb then Ichibei would have a lot of trouble avoiding them all without his shikai. However as soon as he goes shikai he can negate them all. Toneri basically has to kill Ichibei before he releases his zanpakuto or else Ichibei's hax gives him the win. That's the way I see it
1. I dont see how Ichibei will be given the chance to activate his Shikai as his base form will be nothing compared to Toneri and there's nothing Ichibei in base has that can stop Toneri from just one shotting him before the Shikai comes out and the ink coming in to blot him out.
2. The issue with the whole "paint on TSB, loses its power thing" is that there is no good or concrete argument/evidence that actually proves the Ink would take away its power. Like mentioned above, the TSB negates anything just by touch alone (with the exception of Senjutsu/Nature Energy). What actually proves the Ink would cancel the TSB's power before it instantly just gets nullified itself? As far as im concerned, the TSB will nulllify it first before IT gets nullified by the ink. Frankly, there is no evidence of it going the other way around in favor of the ink and honestly, its ridiculous to even assume so. Furthermore, your own statement supports the Ink getting nullified first as you said the ink will make the TSB lose ALMOST all of its power. Nullifying an attack is not power based, meaning its hax would still remain long enough to nullify the ink, thus canceling it all together. And honestly, there isnt any evidence that Ichibei blotting out a single TSB will mean ALL of Toneri's TSB's will get blotted out either as there isnt any corelation to each TSB. And even if this is incorrect, Toneri could still one shot Ichibei who would be too focused on blotting out the TSB's rather than attack Toneri himself
3. If TSB's are no longer an option., then Toneri can still stop the Ink with his possible Matter Manipulation and Transmutation like I stated above. Then he wouldnt even need the TSB's
4. Im going to be honestly straight when I say this, but, what's there to say Toneri can't just get out of the Ink's range? Or just straight up dodge it? If the Ink needs to be in physical contact with something in order to blot out its name, then I dont see why Toneri cant just attack the Ink to keep it at bay, get out of its range, or just straight up dodge it when Ichibe has never shown to have his Ink travel to more than like 50 feet away from him.
Unless Ichibe can do something to counter all of these points, I dont see how his hax can seal him a win against someone like Toneri
