Another day, another group of hollows. Sheathing my spear, I turned away to go home, before I heard a yell from an above rooftop.

"Halt evildoer!"

I look up, and I see six people, all dressed in what looks like Super Sentai cosplay standing on a building.

"You've picked a bad time to come around here! Now you will face justice at the hands of…" he said, as the group began launching into various heroic poses "THE KARAKURA-RAIZER TEAM!"

I could only stand there, looking up at the group, struggling not to laugh my ass off. Eventually I had to give in, laughing like a maniac.

"What's so funny evildoer?" the leader asked

"What's so funny? You six! I've never seen anything so… so... BWAHAHAHAHA!" I laughed, struggling to keep my sides from exploding

"Stand back Karakura-Raizer, I'll take care of this." Shouted the red one.

"Yeah! You go girl!" shouted another

The red Raizer landed on the ground with a crash, cracking the concrete beneath her. Charging at me, I readied myself for an attack.

"Raizer Deadly Magnum!" she shouted, her fists bursting into flame as she swung at me. Dodging out of the way, she continued her assault, trying desperately to land a blow.

Sonidoing behind her, I gave her a light kick, sending her sprawling to the ground.

"Woah! He just took out Raizer Beast with one kick!" a panicked one shouted "We should really get outta here!"

"No way Raizer Delicate! We can't just leave our comrade behind!" shouted another one, whose voice sounded very familiar

"Hey! I know you!"

"Hmm?"

"You're Don Kanonji! I used to watch your TV show all the time!"

The two of us then procceded to have a special moment, quoting the old TV show.

"The spirits are always with you! BOAHAHAHAAA!" we shouted in unison, even doing the cross armed thing too. It was awesome. You should've been there.

"Are you kidding me?" the leader asked, slumping at the shoulders.

"Guys, I couldn't fight one of my fans! I'm outta here!" he shouted, disappearing in a flash of smoke

"Wait, REALLY?!" the white one shouted, but Don Kanonji was nowhere to be seen "Alright, Karakura Spirit has abandoned us! Tiny Devil, circle around him! Delicate, go get Beast! Erotic! Find a way to distract him! I'll hit him with the Raizer Beam!"

"Right!"

The group split apart as the leader started doing… I don't even. I didn't really have time for paying attention to him as the Tiny Devil launched into the attack. Blocking a kick, I tried to return with a punch, but she dodged it, grabbing my arm and launching me over her head! Crashing to the ground, I quickly righted myself.

"I guess I shouldn't have underestimated you just because of your stature." I said, cracking my knuckles "Alright, show me what you've got!"

The Tiny Devil leapt up into the air again, then thundered down with tremendous speed! I tried to block it, but my guard collapsed, and I bounced off the pavement, landing on my feet.

"Okay, enough playing around! It's time to take this a little more seriously!" I said, readying myself. Sonidoing behind her, I slammed my elbow into her back. As she sailed through the air, Raizer Beast was back up and attacking again, this time with more ferocity than before.

Blocking my kick, she shifted her grip, grabbed my leg and swung me into a wall! As I was about to launch off the wall, I felt the Tiny Devil leap up and grab my arms, tugging them behind my back!

"Get off!" I shouted as the Raizer Beast charged at me with a burning fist.

"Raizer Deadly Magnum!" she shouted again, slamming her fist into my chest, sending up a huge plume of smoke. As it cleared, I could see her shocked expression to see that I was still standing! The wind had been knocked out of me, and I think that my clothes had been singed, but my Hierro had otherwise protected me.

"Is that all you've got?" I coughed, sucking in a breath

"It's not over yet!" she shouted, the Tiny Devil and the Raizer Beast leaping away "Raizer Erotic! Do it now!"

"Right!" shouted the pink one, launching into a weird pose, as was the thing of these guys "Restraint Number One! Fuzzy Cuffs!"

I felt handcuffs materialise on my wrists. Looking directly at 'Erotic Raizer', I broke the handcuffs easily. I mean, I had the strength of around thirty people. Like a cheap pair of novelty handcuffs would stop me.

"He broke 'em! Raizer! We need you do it now!" she screamed

Looking up at the top of the building, I saw that the leader had finally finished doing… whatever it was he was doing and was holding his arms out in front of him "Got it! Raizeeeeeeerrrr… BEEEEEEAAAAAAAM!"

A huge blue beam screamed through the air as time began to slow down. I put my arms up in front of me and shouted my own attack.

"Cero Humana!"

The white beam screamed through the air to meet the light blue beam sent out by the Karakura-Raizer. The two beams crashed together, making a huge bright light as the energies collided. Then without warning, the two beams exploded, enveloping the area in a blinding white light as I was flung back into a wall.

*v*v*v*

*v*v*v*

When I regained consciousness, I felt the helmet drop from my head, clattering onto the ground.

"Hey! I think he's awake!" shouted one of them

I tried to move my arms, but they were so far embedded in the concrete, I couldn't budge!

"So evildoer, are you ready to accept defeat?" one of them asked

"What made you think I was evil?" I asked, shaking my left arm free from the concrete

"Wait, you aren't?" asked Raizer Beast

"No! I've been killing hollows ever since I got here!" I said, pulling my right arm free from the rubble

"I think we got some bad intel guys." Sighed Karakura-Raizer

"From who?" I asked, breaking my legs out of the concrete and rebar prison

"We're not about to tell you our sources!" Raizer Delicate shouted

I bent down to pick up my helmet and plonked it back on my head "Well that's too bad. I guess we could have been great allies if it weren't for your crappy intel."

"Don't talk about Kisuke like that!" squeaked the Tiny Devil before clamping a hand over her mouth

"K… Kisuke?" I asked. Suddenly, I realised why everyone despised the smiling shopkeeper. "KIIIIIIIIIIISUKKEEEEEEEEEEE!"

*v*v*v*

*v*v*v*

"Are you sure this bunker is going to hold Tessai?"

"Positive sir. As I've told you before, the concrete is reinforced with steel and Seki-Seki. It'll take them roughly a year to break it."

Kisuke hummed in agreement, looking at his watch "How long has it been since Sivir, Kon and Tatsuki started beating on it?"

"Six days."

A sickening crunch was heard as a wall of the underground bunker shattered.

"Knock knock!" came three voices, shouting in unison, laced with barely concealed rage

"You said it would take them a year to break it!" Kisuke shouted in surprise

"I said roughly a year. It would appear my calculations were off somewhat. Stronger bunker next time?" Tessai asked

"Make it twenty inches thick instead of five."
