Espadas Reborn
Disclaimer: I do not own bleach
Warning: This is a very brutal story with a lot of deaths and gross scenes. I will make this rated T for now, but I could very well be rated M soon
Recap: After Palu Gulpur single handedly brakes Aizen out of prison, Palu brings back all of Aizen's followers and the Gotei Thirteen Court Guard Squad's enemies back to life, Aizen kills Palu after he reveals that if the resurrected die a second, they will be permanently dead. In his dying moments Palu brings back several dead Gotei 13 members who are Aizen's enemy. One of them is Gin, who allows the rest of Aizen's enemies to escape as he proceeds to battle several Espada. Eventually, Gin resolves to flee the battle and take refuge in the human world. Tosen and the rest of the resurrected Soul Reapers enter the Soul Society and are immediately spotted by Jushiro Ukitake and Rukia Kuchiki, Tosen explains the situation to them and the Soul Reapers believe him, but the resurrected Kenpachi Kiganjo, the former captain of the eleventh division who wants to get revenge for his slaughter one hundred years ago, grows impatient and reveals to Ukitake and Rukia that the resurrected Soul Reapers have the ability to fire a cero. He then proceeds to fire one at Ukitake and Rukia despite Tosen and Kaien's attempts to stop him. Ukitake blocks the cero with his is sword but is weakened. Rukia proceeded to release her zanpakto but if effortlessly defeated by Kiganjo. Kenpachi Kiganjo was about to finish off Rukia when Kaien Shiba interfered and attack Kiganjo. Kaien defeated Kiganjo but Kiganjo refused to stop attempting to hurt Kaien until Captain Shuhei Hisagi appeared and disarmed Kiganjo. Tosen reconciles with his former captain and the resurrected Soul Reapers leave the Division Nine Barracks.
Back in the desert where Gin fought the Espada, Aizen forgives Stark for letting Gin escape and smiles at the site of his new army. Kageroza points out to Aizen's new army that they do not have to be Aizen's soldiers. Kageroza explains to the former Espada that they were just Aizen's puppets and that they are all stronger hen Aizen now because of their new resurrection powers. Aizen explained his actions and said he never intended to see the Espada die. Kageroza then attempts to kill Aizen with his newfound strength. Though proving himself to be very strong, Aizen still manages to wound Kageroza in the stomach. Then Aizen proceeds tell his new army that regardless of how strong they are, he will always be stronger.
Episode 10: Aizen Controls
Location: Desert where Gin fought Espada
Current date: Spring Equinox
Kageroza stopped moving once this happened and stared at Stark's sword, part of it was now inside his stomach. Aizen held onto the other end of the sword and said,
"If I want to, I could simply move this sword deeper into your body until it exits out through your back. You would be dead again within seconds. However, I will not kill you. I could tell that you are strong. You are very strong. I know you weren't fighting with your top strength. I could only imagine what your top strength really is. You will make a really good Espada. Your daughter, Nozomi, would make an excellent fracciones. I hope you agree with me, because it would be a shame for me to kill someone as strong as you. Someone who hates the soul society almost as much as I do." Aizen then looked at his army, continued to smile and said,
"I hope you all realize that no matter how strong you all get, I will always be stronger."
"What makes you say that?" Asked Kageroza who was taking many deep breaths and trying to keep himself conscious. "Do you seriously believe that the Espada will just make you their leader because you managed to wound me? You are wrong Aizen."
"No, you are wrong." Said Stark who intervened. "We will not make Aizen our leader because of strength. He is our leader because we all still trust him. If you have a problem with that, I have no problem dealing you the finishing blow."
"Thank you Stark. It makes me happy to see that I have followers that want me to be their leader out of instinct and brains, and not out of fear." Said Aizen. "I am glad to see that you and the Espada are still loyal."
"We are sir." Said Ulquiorra. "You helped us in life immensely, we dies from our own mistakes and we let you down. Now it is time to reply you for our mistakes."
Aizen smiled, and it wasn't his evil grin smile, it was an actual smile. Kageroza looked at Aizen and the Espada in disgust. Kageroza said before passing out from his injuries, "I cannot believe I am going to have to work with you guys. My life is Hell."
Aizen, Stark, and Ulquiorra walked away from the unconscious Kageroza and began to talk privatly. Stark then asked Aizen if he knew what he intended on doing with the Espadas since Grimmjow and Harriebel defected and are now sided with the Soul Society. Aizen responded by saying,
"I do not know, my first move will probably be finding us an actual place to live for a little while. My next priority is training for combat."
Ulquiorra responded to this by saying, "What are you going to do about the other arrancars, resurrected Soul Reapers, and hollows? We can't just let them roam free, we should work with them."
Aizen then said, "I know. Maybe I could let some of the resurrected Soul Reapers, Hollows, and Arrancars, along with Kageroza into the Espada. I could give them a rank and revamp you and the other Espadas' ranking.
"That works master," said Stark, "I just hope my rank does not change." Stark now had a smile on his face. Ulquiorra then said,
"Well we have three former Espada that are no longer with us. Grimmjow and Harriebel have joined the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, and I have no clue where Yammy is. What exactly happened to Yammy? It doesn't exactly sound like he survived his battles from four years ago."
Aizen's evil grin appeared and Aizen said, "Ahh Yammy, I have my reasons for not bringing him back to life. I wouldn't worry about him; he got his ass kicked before dying four years ago by the hands of two captains. Aizen walked back to his army, looked at his new army and cleared his throat. He then said to his new army,
"After discussing the recent events with my subordinates, I have decided to include you all in my ranked army. Some of you may even make it into the Espada. Before I decide who receive what rank however, I must see how strong you all are. Beginning tomorrow you will demonstrate your power to me and I will give you a grade. After everyone has demonstrated their power, I will assign new ranks for the army. Let me make this clear, when I say you are going to demonstrate your power to me, this does not mean you could attack me, if you attack me I will kill you instantly, understood?"
Aizen's army silently nodded showing that they understood. Aizen continued to grin and said one more thing.
"I also have a new policy. Fight every battle like it is your last. Not following this policy is what caused the downfall of the Espada four years ago. You could win one hundred battles to the death, but if you lose that one hundred and first battle to the death, the result is the exact same as losing your first battle to the death. Never become arrogant. Never let your guard down. Never show a sign of weakness. Follow this advice, and we will destroy the Gotei Thirteen Court Guard Squads, and the world will be ours."
Aizen continued to grin as his army began to clap and cheer.
TO BE CONTINUED
I am sorry if you felt that this was like a filler episode, because to many extents it was. I never intended to make this an action chapter. The next chapter will have action and I intend to go back to the plot-taking place in the Soul Society in three chapters. Please review this chapter based on grammar and description, because this was a filler episode.
