Sielin and Alamin have revealed that they were both one hollow in two separate bodies. Now, they have merged together and have become Siealamin. A hollow unlike anything Ichigo has ever faced before.
"Do you still feel confident that you can win?" Siealamin said.
"Harribel, have you ever seen anything like that before?" Ichigo asked.
"I can't say that I have." Harribel said. "Two polar opposites are actually one and it is under Aizen's control. With power such as this, there doesn't seem to anything that can stop him."
"Don't say that. There has to be a way to take that thing down." Ichigo said.
"There isn't. Allow us to show a mere sample of our power." Siealamin said. "Only then, you will understand what it means to grieve in despair. Nothing can save you." He held up both of his arms and merged forces of fire and water. He let it out in one shot and it blasted Harribel. It sent her flying across the sky and crashed through some buildings. She landed all the way on the other side of the city and was out of commission.
"There's no way. He took Harribel down in just one shot?" Ichigo said. "She was so powerful that Toshiro couldn't defeat her."
"Now, do you understand? There was never any hope for you." Siealamin said. Ichigo never fought anyone with this kind of power before. It seemed like there wasn't any hope for him at all. All his friends and sisters could do was just stand there and watch. Well, except for Yuzu since she couldn't see a thing on what was happening.
"Can Ichigo even beat these monsters?" Keigo said as he looked like he was about to have a panic attack.
"He's got to." Karin said. Ichigo wasn't sure he could win either. He was lost in thought and that allowed Siealamin to reach out and grab Ichigo in a crushing grip.
"You're lucky we still need you alive. We want to kill you in front of your wife." Siealamin said. Ichigo couldn't move at all and everyone was greatly worried about him. They heard something opened up and looked over to the side to see a garganta opened up. Orihime and all the others came through it.
"Everyone!" Tatsuki said as all of them except Yuzu ran to them. She didn't understand anything on what was going on. "Orihime, I'm so glad you're okay."
"Who are these two?" Keigo said as he pointed to Grimmjow and Nel.
"Not important right now. Where's Ichigo?" Nel said. She got her answer when they all heard Ichigo screaming and saw the predicament he was in.
"Ichigo!" Orihime shouted.
"Speak of the devil." Siealamin said. Ichigo looked down and saw all of his friends came back and was concerned when he saw Orihime and Kalia was there as well.
'No. Why did they come back?' Ichigo thought.
"It looks like we won't have to wait around. With Orihime here, we'll kill you, your home, and all of your beloved friends and family." Siealamin said.
"No." Ichigo said, but was a mistake as he had lesser breath to keep him alive.
"Ichigo, hang on!" Uryu said as he fired his arrows, but nothing happened as they made contact. It was like he didn't even feel anything. Siealamin held out his other arm and blasted near everyone that sent them all flying around.
"This is the end. Lord Aizen will have his glorious power once again and you won't be able to stop him." Siealamin said. Ichigo's rage for these people were starting to build up even more. He had to protect all of the people he knew and didn't know. He had to protect everyone at any costs.
"I won't let that happen!" His rage was starting to control him and he was unleashing so much power. Siealamin couldn't hold on anymore and everyone felt the heavy weight of Ichigo's spiritual pressure. Ichigo was surrounded by red spirit energy and it was like everyone was staring into the light emitted by a demon.
"What's happening to him?" Karin said.
"Oh no." Orihime said as she held on to Kalia as tight as she could for comfort. She had only felt this power before and it was as bad as she remembered. The energy cleared away and Ichigo completely transformed into his hollow form as a vasto lorde.
"Interesting." Aizen said since this was the first time he's ever seen one like that.
"So this is the form you took when you defeated Ulquiorra." Siealamin said. Ichigo unleashed his mighty hollow shriek and everyone covered their ears. It was starting to affect Yuzu as she saw transparent versions of what was going on and she saw Ichigo's form and she somehow felt that was him.
"Ichigo?" Yuzu asked.
"I don't understand. What has happened to him?" Grimmjow said.
"I've never seen Ichigo like this before." Chad said.
"I have. He was like that when he fought Ulquiorra." Uryu said. "His power is destructive, but Ichigo doesn't even know what he's doing. This is bad. He could destroy everything if he wanted to." Uryu looked over to Orihime as he was worried about her wellbeing and he could see how terrified she was. Ichigo was powering up a Cero between his two horns and fired it. Siealamin had no time to react and had to block it. The impact of the attack was so destructive that the explosion took away some rooftops and shattered some windows.
"I knew his hollow powers were strong, but this takes it to a new definition." Aizen said. Siealamin held out his hands and shot out blasts of fire and water, but Ichigo was able to use his new found speed to avoid all of them. He shoved his sword in Siealamin's chest until he couldn't anymore. He used his new found strength and hoisted him up and unleashed his power in a red ray of light and blasted the ground and Siealamin in the air.
"His power is more destructive than I imagined." Siealamin said. Ichigo powered up another Cero between his horns and blasted Siealamin once again. The battle was fierce and everyone was scared of the outcome.
"It's even more frightening than I remember." Uryu said.
"Is there anyway we can stop this?" Nel asked.
"His power is stronger than any arrancar I know of. It be best if we stay out of the way." Grimmjow said.
"But there's got to be something we can do." Renji said.
"Ichigo, you've got to snap out of it!" Keigo shouted to him, but everyone thought he was just being plain stupid.
"That isn't going to help!" Tatsuki said.
"Ichigo's like a wild demon. There's nothing we can do that can snap him out of it." Uryu said. "Attempting to get near him or that other one could end up in our deaths." Ichigo powered up his hollow energy around his sword and fired red slashes of the attack.
"Enough of this!" Siealamin said. He unleashed blasts of fire to counter Ichigo's attack and it caused explosions in the air. Ichigo used a Sonido and appeared behind Siealamin. "Nice try." He turned around and clubbed Ichigo with his right hand. "Have you had enough?"
"YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAA!" Ichigo shrieked. Everyone tried to block out the sound, but it was practically exploding in their ears. The sound upset Kalia so much that she started crying. She couldn't handle all the loud noises. However, it was those cries that reached into Ichigo's conscious.
'Wait! What am I doing?' Ichigo thought. He could hear Kalia's cries as the rest of the world went silent around him. 'Kalia sounds scared. I can't let this thing control me.' His hand tried to reach out for his mask, but there was a thought that was holding him back. 'Wait, I can't. I can't defeat them without this power, but I can't lose myself.'
"What's going on? What's happening to him?" Grimmjow said, but Orihime could actually tell what was happening to him. She could feel that he was struggling on what he should do to stop these guys.
"Ichigo, you can do it! Do it for Kalia." Orihime shouted. Ichigo heard her and it awoke a new power that he never had before. His mask was sinking beneath his skin and the hole was closing up.
"What's going on? This never happened before." Aizen said. Ichigo's spirit energy was fluctuating and was unstable until it grew settle. Ichigo's face was normal, but still had the marks on his face and had horns on his head. Kalia's cries reached out for him and the strong will of a father allowed him to defeat his inner demon and still holding the power he needed.
"Alright, Siealamin. If you want to destroy Karakura Town and get your hands on my little girl, you have to get through me."
