Hello I am back from my vacation and I'm ready to type up this chapter…hoorah!
Kyoraku and Skorge clashed blades, the chainsaw staff began to rotate (or whatever chainsaws do) and grind the captain's sword. Kyoraku was knocked back but landed safely a few feet from his opponent as he charged once again. Once Kyoraku weakily charged at the mutant person he was slammed in the stomach by an end of the chainsaw staff. Blood went everywhere as he fell to the ground he eventually got up.
"This isn't like him…he's weak he can't fight!" Nanao said in a worried tone.
"Will he be all right?" Orihime asked
Naruto stayed silent
Skorge took no time standing and leaped into the air, if it wasn't for Kyoraku rolling over his face would've been grinded. Kyoraku stabbed both of his swords into his opponent then used his reiatsu as a shockwave to throw Skorge back slamming into the wall. Kyoraku panted then raised his arm using a kido Naruto couldn't make out but realized it was Haien, the 54th hado. The blast of purple spiritual energy slammed into Skorge, Kyoraku hopefully thought he was dead until he found a shadowy figure leap into the air once more.
"This thing doesn't know when to give up…" Kyoraku muttered as he leaped into the air weakily.
"He's weak…why is he fighting he knows that he wont win…unless…! Kyoraku no!" Nanao shouted and ran toward him.
Kyoraku took one last look at Naruto and smiled brightly not his usual taunting sarcastic smiles, but more of an "I'm proud of you" smile. A smile that just screamed emotion, he was then slammed by the chainsaw staff with a severe injury as he slammed into the wall. This time…he didn't get back up.
"Kyoraku…Kyoraku!" Naruto screamed knowing that Skorge had ended his sensei's life…another one of his dear teachers dead, but he wouldn't let this one go. He balled his hands up into a fist and growled looking at Skorge who stood there blankly. "I'm going to rip you apart…with my own hands…"
Naruto flashed stepped in front of Skorge and grabbed the mutant's head slamming him into the ground repeatedly. He then threw him up in the air and flash stepped once more punching him and punching him. He back flipped having the tip of his foot touch Skorge's chin, then slamming Skorge into the ground and kicking him repeatedly. He leaped up once more as his hand engulfed in flames, he was so angry he didn't need to call out a kido, the Soukatsui just came to him as he slammed it into the mutants back leaving a hole in its back.
Naruto screamed and began to punch the corpse; Nanao and Orihime used all their strength to pull him away from it.
"It's over Naruto there's nothing we can do…he's dead!" Nanao shouted feeling the boy's muscles tense up trying to break free, but knowing that it wasn't the right thing.
"He was the first person who took me in…I was in his squad…he taught me everything I know! Why did he have to die why did he go and fight! We could've made it out alive all of us! Son of a bitch!" Naruto shouted as he began to punch the ground, kneeling down as tears flowed down his cheeks.
"He did it on purpose…he didn't want to be dead weight…he has faith in you that you can solve all of this…he thinks you've surpassed him…he wants you to solve this and bring the soul society back into its glory days…he told me that when we were in the cell…don't fail him…" Nanao said her voice cracking as she held tears in, wiping them away with her sleeve.
"…ya…this just gives me more of a reason to stop this…c'mon we got to find Ichigo…" Naruto said as he stood up and began to walk, wiping the tears with his sleeve.
"Are you all right…about all this?" Kyuubi asked from inside his mind
"I don't know…I just don't know…but what I do know is my goal…I don't want to fail her…Ichigo must mean a lot to her and I don't want anyone else dying today." Naruto answered as he walked faster, stopping for Nanao and Orihime to catch up.
After awhile Aizen, Gin and Tousen appeared above Las Noches to view the battle they haven't seen Arturo so they thought he didn't know where they were. Gin looked at Aizen's hand and found a black needle like shard in it.
"What's that?" Gin asked
Aizen lifted his hand so that they could see "A shard…from the Hogyoku…I want to test something out on someone…but first I have to flush him out."
"How are you going to do that?" Tousen asked
"Covering this area in a big black box…hado 90 Kurohitsugi…I need all of you do channel your reiatsu in this one…" Aizen asked as Tousen and Gin did as he instructed…a huge black box covered Las Noches
"So is Ichigo over there?" Naruto asked pointing over to a lone tower, one of the few that is still standing.
"Yes from what I know he is fighting an Espada…I don't know if he's still ali-" Orihime stopped as she looked up, the sky turned pitch black.
"What's going on…"Nanao asked as she stumbled, hardly able to see where she is going.
"This is no eclipse…can't you feel it Nanao, were inside a hado of some sort…but theres only one that's like this…which means…!" Naruto saw a purple light and looked back to see millions of long skinny accurate needles piercing through everything. "We gotta get out of here, Nanao take Orihime and go I'll get Ichigo."
"It's too dangerous to go out to the tower now, you'll die!" Nanao said
"I'm not letting him die either!" Naruto said as he flash stepped away. Nanao scoffed as she grabbed Orihime's hand and ran.
Yoroichi began to flash stepped toward Nanao once she reached her she grabbed her hand "I can see better in the dark, let me be your eyes." She said as they ran faster.
Arashi watched as the area got pitch black and the needles began to strike the far south part of Las Noches. "Seems like Aizen is getting impatient…looks like our fight will have to wait Dante." He said as he flash stepped off.
"Oh you little shit! Now I'm stuck here…damn" Dante said as he frantically wiggled
The ground became a huge crowd of remaining arrancar, Arashi's men, the Vizards, and Sasuke running toward the exit of this big black box. They knew there was an exit because they found out it was not solid due to the sun faintly shining through. They also began taking cheap stabs at each other and some fell to the ground dead, it was chaos.
Naruto calmly flash stepped across ruins and toward the tower. He shouted out hado 31 Soukatsui and threw it on top of the tower so he could see if he was close. He quickly began to flash step toward it and eventually crashed through the tower. All he saw was a arrancar with black wings fading into mist as a shirtless and very damaged Ichigo watching.
"Ichigo…Orihime sent me to find you…I hope your not too hurt." Naruto asked
"Huh…who are you…" Ichigo paused and faintly saw Naruto, remembering him from when he was in Hueco Mundo with him. "Oh it's you…I'm fine…but Ishida is pretty damaged right now…" he said while pointing at the Quincy.
"Well if you haven't noticed someone outside made a huge hado…that big black box and needles are striking every inch and its coming closer, we have to get out…now." Naruto stated as he picked up the Quincy. "C'mon."
Ichigo nodded as the two flash stepped away from the tower.
Naruto noticed that Ichigo's flash step was much faster than his and that sort of bugged him, he decided to simply use the flash step as a speed boost and just run, leaping along the ruins and everything. He looked behind him and saw the needles crashing the tower and heard screams of people getting sliced by them. He stepped on one part of some random ruin and leaped up flash stepping madly reaching toward the top of the box and trying to just leap out. Ichigo wasn't paying attention to Naruto as he continued to keep a decent pattern of flash stepping and running.
As Aizen, Tousen, and Gin watched and waited for Aizen's "experiment" to come out the three felt an enormous reiatsu behind them, one to even make Gin open his eyes just to twitch.
"You thought I forgot about you guys after killing all your Espada? Give me a break…" Arturo said as he stabbed Tousen through the chest, his reiatsu radiating from the blade and making the wound even more severe. Once he retracted his blade Tousen fell to the ground, dead.
"Just wait Arturo…I'll give you a suitable opponent…and if you kill me you could never see if you're stronger than this one…and you'll never be on top." Aizen said the sun shining upon his glasses as he looked at Arturo with a grin.
"Fine…and once I'm done with him…your next." Arturo said and waited looking at the box as well.
Dante continued to wiggle as he saw his sword, rebellion stabbed in front of him. He groaned and reached for it eventually grabbing it as it swarmed with red reiatsu. Not just any reiatsu but a demonic reiatsu that easily cut through the kido, he leaped up and began to run from the needles.
"I can feel the needles getting closer, are we almost there?" Nanao asked Yoroichi as they ran
"Almost, just a few more feet and we can flash step out of here." Yoroichi said as the three leaped out of the building. "Now!" Yoroichi released her grip on Nanao and flash stepped out of the box.
"Hold your breath." Nanao said as she held onto Orihime and flash stepped out of the box as well.
Once Nanao made it out of the box the light made her squint heavily. She found all the Vizards out but they were extremely tired and beaten up a bit. She then saw a cloaked figure standing a few yards away from them looking up at the sky. Nanao walked over to the cloaked figure as the man turned around to reveal Sasuke's face.
"Sasuke…you're the one who tried to kill Naruto…you bastard!" she shouted putting her zanpakuto up to Sasuke's neck.
"I'm not here to kill him…I'm here to help him, whether you trust me or not is your problem…but it would be common courtesy to get that sword out of my face." Sasuke calmly said watching as the shinigami lowered her blade and looked at him, and then walked back to Orihime and Yoroichi.
Naruto reached his hand out for the tip of the box, his fingers reaching the top of the box as he used his reiatsu to boost him forward out of the box. Naruto panted as he leaped high in the air, he looked to his left to see Gin, Aizen, and Arturo.
"This…is my experiment…a Vizard and an Arrancar…in perfect union…or near perfect…we shall see how this goes." Aizen said as he flash stepped toward Naruto and stabbed his neck with the Hogyoku shard. Black/purple veins surrounded his neck and eventually his body as his eyes widened and he dropped the Quincy and fell himself.
"That's Naruto…why is he falling?" Nanao said ignoring the fact Ichigo made it out of the box and Orihime ran toward him.
"Aizen…don't get near him Nanao…I don't know what he's done." Yoroichi stated as she felt Dante's presence behind him.
"What did I miss?" Dante asked as he saw Yoroichi pointing to Naruto falling. He groaned as he ran toward Naruto.
"Idiot! Don't do that Dante!" Yoroichi shouted
"Who's that?" Nanao asked
"I'll explain later…"
Naruto began to fall faster and faster until he crashed into the sand, which raised everywhere. Dante felt a huge reiatsu that halted him and well intimidated him almost. He stepped back as a white pillar stabbed through his shoulder, he immediately slammed to the ground, the pillar was more like a tail as eight more stabbed the ground.
"Aizen…what did you do…"Yoroichi muttered
"A Vizard and an arrancar…fusing all of his abilities into one being…yes…this is the perfect being…a suitable challenge for the first every arrancar…don't you think Arturo." Aizen said grinning as he looked at Arturo who closed his eyes and smiled.
The smoke cleared once the white tails rose from the sand, there were nine tails. A fox's skull was on top of the beings head and the jaw of a fox was loosely hanging from the beings chin. He had regular white shoulder pads and basically white armor, his fingers were claws and his feet were like a foxes. Short and tattered white wings were resting on the back of the being. Black veins surrounded the whole body; the area between the neck and shoulders had two red fang like designs that came down to the beings stomach. You could see some of his hair, which was a faint blonde and almost looked white. Once the male looked up his skin was a bit of an aqua tone to it with a teeth or so showing even with his mouth was closed. His pupils were yellow and the part of his eyes which was usually white was black with red blood vessel things (the red vein thingys that come when your eye is like strained or something) appeared.
"The training wheels are off Naruto…do whatever you want now…" Aizen said dropping the Hogyoku shard.
