Volume 3: Episode 46: Enraged Kindness VS Superiorly! Dragon Knight Yugi VS Aizen!
In the previous episode of DKR:
Finally arriving onto the battlefield like a fire show, Yugi appeared saving Mew Ichigo now in the appearance of his Burst Limit; the Dragon Blade. Having a short happy reunion, Mew Ichigo warned the young Dragon Knight to not fight them as did Mew Plum. Regardless of their warnings, Yugi strongly believed he can win without a second thought. After a short banter, Aizen offered the young Dragon Knight the chance to turn away and joined him but Yugi turned it down without a second thought never going to work for someone like him. Dropping his offer, Aizen had Gin and Tosen to fight the Dragon Knight as both are actually overwhelmed by the boy's difference of current power so far. With speed and now flight, Yugi's raw power easily dominates his opponents. Even against Gin's extending blade, Yugi easily handled the incoming attacks. Even against Tosen's Bankai, Yugi blows it away with the power of his new Dragonaun Tengoku, tearing through anything in its path.
Now with no one else to fight for him, Yugi and Aizen stared down at the other as the final battle will commence.
Does Yugi, with the Dragon Blade, have what it takes to defeat Aizen by himself?
What will happen next?
And now the conclusion... last left off in the previous episode:
Not the kind of day Judai wanted, sort of. First this Aizen guy and his Espada army show up and he and Rukia were fighting a weirdo pretty sure his head isn't what it seem. Just then in the middle of the fight with those random Hollows against that Aaroniero, they all could feel an enormous energy unleash all over them. Rukia turns pale recognizing Aizen's massive Spiritual Energy but the other one, almost as massive was different. Judai grins able to tell who that is excitedly.
''Man this feeling is awesome!'' The brown-orange headed states really wishing he was there where Yugi was.
Aaroniero didn't flinch from the energy he's feeling though he states. ''Aizen-sama, he's engaging a foolish human to fight him. How unfair, I could be eating such DELICIOUS energy.''
Judai hears that and wish he didn't say that.
''Hey tower head!'' The 9th Espada turns to Judai calling out to him and declares with a cocky smirk. ''That foolish human is the hero who's going to beat your leader. Remember those words!''
The Espada did not react as he comes at the two. Rukia glares charging with Judai now summoning Elemental HERO Neos Knight.
Aaroniero, not wishing to fight under these conditions, backs away and commands the Hollows to attack them. Rukia swings her sword and freezes them with one of her dance techniques as Neos Knight slashes through the frozen Hollows, shattering them into ice cubes.
''I will kill you two first before going for that meal.'' The 9th Espada declares to the two as his tentacle hand is eagerly excited to feast. Judai smirks as he proclaims. ''Hate to disappoint you but-''
In that moment Judai stops as he feels something, an enrage energy, gathering up. Rukia blinks as she notices the terror in Judai's eyes.
''Judai?'' She asks him wondering if he's okay. Sweating, Judai knows exactly what he's feeling as he felt its hate before.
''N-Naruto…'' Judai utters certain his friend is in a fight and the Kyuubi has possessed him once more. He really has to finish this fight or else his friend might not survive for long.
Ed sweats extremely unease. He and his group were fighting the pink hair ''fruity Actor'' four-eyes Espada until like a strange wave just stopped everyone. It even freaked out the Espada's bizarre-looking minions, shaking out of fear. Renji sweats mentioning one of those energies is Aizen but the other is completely different.
Ed and even Danny have this disturb expression them is the look the Espada had. Szayelaporro has this face, almost as if he's orgasming with a wide, big grin.
''Such enormous power! Such delight to study such potential! This Dragon Knight is much more than what Ulquiorra failed to explain!'' Szayelaporro begins yelling with a twisted grin. Ed staggers as he openly yells it out. ''T-that has to be Yugi!''
''Pretty good guess Ed.'' Danny mutters sweat dropping. As far as the Alchemist assumes it is Yugi from the Espada, Uryu however confirms it after sensing on the other's energy. It wasn't so much Spiritual Energy but it sure feels like one.
Danny notices the look the Quincy had and asks really hoping they weren't right. ''T-They're right?''
Uryu takes a moment to confirm and explains it. ''Kurosaki has mentioned Yugi-san's power to be overflowing but massive like a storm. No doubt this is Yugi.''
Danny sweats to think that it's Yugi. That means his training paid off. No doubt he must be even stronger than before.
''Um guys.'' The ghost boy tries to get everyone attention back to the Espada and the crazy face he has on.
''Aizen-sama must allow me to research the Dragon Knight's remains but having him alive would suit my desire for stronger Arrancar.'' Szayelaporro mutters to himself grinning insanely, imagining the tests he can have with the Dragon Knight's corpse… or living body. Oh the possibilities to push the boundaries for Arrancars are too much to pass away.
He waves his right hand as a Garganta opens up like a tear. Everyone blinks as if the Espada is going to escape but Danny has a bad feeling it's not the case.
''Change of plans my Fracción; return to Hueco Mundo.'' Szayelaporro orders his minions with a softer grin. Without questioning or stating a single intelligent phrase, his Fracción stop their fighting and heads into the portal. Once all of them enter, the Espada closes it by waving his hand in reverse of before.
''H-he sent them back?'' Al questions not getting it. They had more numbers so why have his minions to leave?
''Hey what's the meaning of this, four-eyes?!'' Ed demands the Espada intensely. Szayelaporro just grins confident at the tiny human boy.
''I have no interest to play around with my food any longer.'' The Espada states as he moves his sword over his head as he opens his mouth wide and does the most disturbing thing they're going to see. They see the guy trying to swallow his sword from the blade into his mouth swirling his tongue almost around it.
''Sip.'' He begins to say as the sword glows pink before he swallows it whole. As he did his entire body begins to swell in enormous spiritual energy, covering Szayelaporro in mist. The others watch as the enemy transforms rapidly within the mist.
''I don't like this.'' Ed musters really not going to enjoy this. Proven to be right, the mist slowly dissipates and reveals the Espada completely transformed.
The Espada's upper torso becomes a segmented and form-fitting gray garment, with white sleeves extending from the elbow and down to a wide opening at the wrist that reveal a purple interior. Three small, dark purple extensions span upward from the elbow, while four long, dark purple strands that look like falling drops hang from the underside of the sleeve itself. His hands turn white, and his fingertips have become purple and claw-like sharp. His hair gains various purple drop-like strands as well. His Hollow mask takes the form of a headdress that forms a thin band across his forehead, as well as what appears to be half the bottom structure of his Hollow mask "glasses". His left eye gains purple markings that take the shape of four lines on the top and bottom. The lower half of his body has become a multitude of purple tentacles reminiscent of a sea anemone. His feet extend from under the tentacles, which are then replaced by a layered dress-like garment. He also gain four large, gray branch structures on his back, two on each side, which form a shape similar to the wings of a butterfly. Each branch has twelve equally-spaced red strands that resemble falling drops. These strands can expand out, becoming thicker until they look similar to feathers, giving them the appearance of actual wings like those of a bird.
Everyone, especially Renji and Danny, found this new form very unease. Heck even Ed finds this too fruity for his own good.
''Fornicarás.'' Szayelaporro announces with a soft smirk, presenting his almost godly presence before his foolish enemies.
Danny eyes this with a half open mouth, not even sure what this guy is really.
''OOO-Okay… this is bad.'' The ghost boy expresses really not liking this. Ed also nods rather unease too.
Szayelaporro lets out a chuckle softly placing his left hand over his face, asking the group. ''Now who's first?''
Renji glares done playing these games with this freak. He leaps forward, shouting as he swings his sword at him. ''HOWL, ZABIMARU!''
The Zanpakuto extends and whips forward at top speed. Szayelaporro didn't move but rather waits as the sword's tip gets in range and in an instant he catches the blade with his other hand. Renji widens his eyes by this.
''How interesting of you attacking me without Bankai.'' The 8th Espada says rather amazed of a fool this Shinigami is. Renji panics as the Espada extends his other hand forming a pink sphere of energy, no doubt a Cero.
Uryu quickly fires one of his Seele Schneider like an arrow with his Quincy bow at unseen speed and even so Szayelaporro moves his other hand, dissipating his attack, and catches the weapon without even trying.
''Really now? How would that have-'' Szayelaporro begins to remark the Quincy's foolish attempt to kill him only but then he spots the missing said Quincy. He looks up and sees him now floating above the sky, aiming his bow as spiritual energy gathers surrounding around his left arm just over his shoulder.
''Licht Regen!'' Uryu shouts firing and unleashing a devastating volley of spiritual arrows towards the Espada.
Szayelaporro makes a chuckle tossing Renji's sword back and then calls forth. ''Telon Balon!''
His wings move themselves forward, surrounding its owner almost like a shield. They wrap him so quickly and thick which forms into a ball as it floats. The energy arrows strikes the ball but all it did is do no damage what so ever. Uryu watches this speechless, not believing his arrows couldn't even pierce through him and instead destroy the ground into shards of ground.
Chuckling within the ball as it the wings unfolded, Szayelaporro grins at the Quincy's attempt. Danny acts fast now and fires a Ghost Ray but the Espada evades it without even trying.
''Why do you humans assume attacking me will work?'' The Espada questions their pathetic sneak attack until suddenly the ground shakes. Fist-like pillars shoot out from the ground towards the Espada but the branches of his wings move and intercept the pillars, destroying them without even trying. Szayelaporro hums almost singing an opera-like song before he suddenly moves his right hand and catches a surprise swipe from Ed's wrist blade by the tips. Fullmetal panics, trying to break out of this grip but no good.
''Your alchemy is an extraordinary ability. One I will take my time to learn from your tiny corpse.'' Szayelaporro tells the alchemist who makes an enrage gaze at him.
The Espada grins at his expression, having confirmed his weakness and continues to tease the human. ''What's wrong? Did I call you small or maybe I should call you a half-size?''
Al panics as Ed is at boiling limit and shouts trying to break free. ''THAT'S-''
The Espada raises his other hand as swirls of pink energy glows. Ed watches needed to react fast. He tries to move to the side but as he did the Espada uses this chance and fires a Cero towards only Ed's right automail arm. Ed watches both in shock and horror as his fake arm is obliterate and he falls just far enough.
''ED!'' Alphonse yells rushing over to his brother's aid. Danny sees the Espada coming towards Ed and fires a barrage of ghost rays with Uryu firing spiritual arrows. Szayelaporro once more uses Telon Balon, blocking the green beams. Renji tries slamming Zabimaru on the barrier but the extending whip sword is instead bounces off on it,
Al manages to get to his brother seeing the damage. Ed gets on his feet panting while tossing off his torn sleeve red coat. Now he's one arm less and this is bad, meaning he can't use Alchemy properly.
Szayelaporro holds his ground with his barrier chuckling at these humans' weak attempts to stop him.
''Naïve children.'' The Espada speaks up moving back as his wings raises up slightly over him.
''Time for the real testing! Carbon-Copy!'' Szayelaporro shouts shooting out a large amount of black liquid from his back upward into the sky. Danny and the others watch as the black liquid falls on them like rain drops. They were unable to evade this.
''Um… okay, what you just-'' Danny begins to ask but as he did the black liquid that did drip on them shoots all over them and then launches away. He and the others watch as the black liquid reforms into identical copies of themselves. Ed drops his jaw not believing this and what's more his copies were all taller than him but luckily they were also one arm only.
''Now how will you fair against yourselves?'' Szayelaporro asks them with a soft grin. On cue the copies come at them with the Danny and Uryu copies firing their barrage of long range attacks. The real Danny acts fast forming a ghost barrier, blocking the beams and arrows. The Renji copies swing their copies of Zabimaru forward, extending the whip blades. Danny reinforces his barrier as the blades struck and almost shattered the barrier just cracking it.
The real Uryu tries to fire his arrows as did Renji extending his blade only for the copies to counter their moves. Al claps his hand and slams them down transmuting sharp spikes forward but his copies stop the spikes by transmuting earth walls.
Ed glares charging at his copies jumping and landing a swift kick only for one of the copies to block it and then another slams a punch across the real one's stomach. Edward gasps out but not defeated kicking said copy back hard. He falls but launches himself upward using his weight and size just as he lands on his feet he head butts a copy back.
''This is really stupid!'' Ed shouts furious trying to punch a copy of his with his real arm but that copy block it with his only arm too. Danny agrees trying to use Ice Ghost Stingers to hit and freeze anyone hit by the ghost needle-like rays but his copies form their own ghost barriers blocking them.
''Not a problem, I'll take them all down in one shot!'' Renji declares twirling his sword rapidly like a twister, making any of the copies to back away. Uryu soon realizes what he meant and tries to stop him. ''Wait!''
It was too late as Renji shouts his body and his sword glowing red. ''BANKAI!''
Almost instantly each of the Renji copies all glow red as well as their swords. Soon they were all covered in smoke. The smoke clears up quickly as Hihio Zabimaru is revealed with Renji wearing his fur-like cowl. However much like Uryu warned him the red-headed Shinigami then panics as his copies had also used Bankai as well.
''YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!'' Renji yells running away as his copies all swing their own giant snake-like swords forward. Uryu sweat drops pretty much seeing this coming.
Szayelaporro grins most entertained proclaiming. ''You are all just utterly amusing. It feels rather too easy.''
Ed, struggling with his copies, figured that they need to beat the user of the copies or else they'll be fighting a battle with no chance of winning. Using his only good arm to pull out a white chalk from his pocket, he quickly bends and draws a transmutation circle. He quickly slams his hand just as the copies try to pull out their own but it's too later as the real Ed transmute pillars shooting out from the ground with sharp ends. These pillars stab through the copies before they could react.
''Gotcha you-'' Ed starts declaring energetic in his victory only for it to be shortly lived as the copies turn black liquid and split into two copies of themselves away from the spikes, each one of them. Edward slowly drops his jaw really-REALLY having no choice but to kill the maker of these rip-offs.
Fullmetal rushes to the real Uryu and asks him knowing he's the only one of them capable of this. ''Hey real four-eyes, can you shoot down the user?''
Uryu eyes him and as much as predictable that is, they don't have much of a choice. He forms a blue energy arrows stating. ''I can.''
Ed smirks drawing a new transmutation circle. Szayelaporro sees that and just then Ed transmutes a spear and with his strength twirls around and throws it at the Espada. Szayelaporro chuckles catching the spear and then to Ed's surprise evades to the right evading Uryu's surprise arrow shot.
''Oh such a-''The 8th Espada begins to tease their chance in shooting him down not noticing the energy arrow ricochets off one wall to the ground before hitting right through the Espada's shoulder. Szayelaporro widens his eyes in pain as the arrow tears through his left arm and dismantles it. The arm drops on the ground bleeding.
''So close!'' Ed shouts angrily really hoping that shot was meant for the head or neck. Uryu nods but the results were still good stating. ''It should give us some advantage now.''
Szayelaporro grits his teeth in both pain and humiliation, not overlooking the Quincy could do that. If he had the knowledge of that, he would have evaded it or put up his barrier. Instead he was humiliated and this won't go unpunished.
''Enough of this.'' Szayelaporro declares sounding rather furious before making a twisted grin. With a snap of his fingers the copies all turn back into liquid, vaporized completely. Danny blinks really not getting this guy at all. First he had his minions fight them and then he had them to retreat in order to use his full strength by making copies of themselves. What can be worst?
''Playtime is over.'' The 8th Espada says vanishing through Sonido. Uryu and Renji panic trying to sense where he'll appear. However Szayelaporro appears right behind them shouting. ''Teatro de Titere!''
Before the Shinigami and the Quincy reacted, they were both grabbed by each of the Espada's wings and oddly wrap them almost swallowing them. Danny, Ed and Al watch in horror.
''HE ATE THEM?!'' Alphonse shouts in terror. Just then each wing becomes large with purple liquid then bursts out were both Renji and Uryu, dropping on the ground. Ed sweat drops muttering. ''And spit them out?''
Two other items drop but the branches of the Espada catches them, revealed to be small voodoo-like dolls that resemble the two that were swallowed.
Danny sees them and he isn't sure why but he did not like those things at all. He watches the Espada backing away almost telling his simple-minded foes to check on their comrades. Not having a choice Danny flies up to the two asking. ''Are you two okay?''
''I feel… sick.'' Renji utters feeling like he's rode one of the human's ''roller coasters''. Uryu nods feeling rather disoriented.
''Thanks for the feast. Now we can have fun hmm?'' Szayelaporro states most excitedly, touching the face of the Uryu doll. The real Uryu feels unease oddly feeling something scratch his face just now.
The Espada hums opening the Uryu doll from the top and sees inside many different dolls resembling organs, each one having Spanish writing on it. He grabs one of them being a kidney and squeezes it. In that instant Uryu gasps and drops on all fours in pain, throwing up blood. This shocked everyone else not understanding the heck just happened.
''H-hey four-eyes!'' Edward utters out not seeing someone throw up blood other than his teacher.
Szayelaporro hums going towards the Renji doll, opening its top and grabs the doll version of the lunges, squeezing it tightly. In that same instant Renji gasps out, struggling to breathe as he drops on his knees too. This shocked the three once more.
''What the heck is wrong with you two?!'' Ed demands really freaking out for once. Danny sweats gazing shaken at the Espada who's grinning.
''Quite simple my tempered alchemist, I am winning.'' Szayelaporro calls out causing Ed to glare at the monster. The Espada chuckles at his expression explaining himself as the branches of his wings show the dolls. ''I have how we say dolls of their organs and I can do whatever I want with them… even crush them. You can imagine whatever I do with these dolls their real organs suffer the same.''
Ed glares not believing this nonsense but of course the Espada showcases this now grabbing Uryu's stomach and jabs his thumb into it hard. Uryu screams clenching into his stomach as if something is piercing through his stomach. The Espada smirks now grabbing on Renji's brain and pokes it. Renji screams with red vein eyes feeling his brain is being stabbed.
Danny gazes madder as his fists glow green. He has to stop him but if he tries no doubt this guy might destroy one of those plushies and no doubt the other two might die.
''That's right part ghost child. Struggle all you can for you're all my experiments until I see fit you can all die after what you did to my arm.'' Szayelaporro threatens them with smug grin, his eyes most insane.
''This is really bad now.'' Al states not sure what they can do.
Ed watches helpless and really hating their situation right about now. If they don't figure out a way to beat this guy without squeezing the other two's ''organs''… then he and Danny will be next.
Dashing and clashing as they disappear and reappear in different spots, Shadow and Ulquiorra counters the other from Chaos energy punches to Ulquiorra's sword. The Espada finds this rather interesting that this creature could even try to pair to his level however in the long stretch it was futile.
Shadow glares firing Chaos Spears left and right for each one to be evaded by Ulquiorra's superior speed while not once losing eye contact. The black hedgehog glares even more so annoy than he should be.
Just then the two stop as they can feel a pulse of strong energies about to clash. Ulquiorra didn't need to focus who one of those energies is being Lord Aizen's… however the other did surprise him.
''It seems I underestimated once again. This Dragon Knight is no weakling.'' The Espada states mentally admitting his mistake. He looks back at the black hedgehog now sensing those others of Team Dragon Knight and makes it clear to this creature.''It seems your allies will die soon.''
Shadow scoffs by those words answering him coldly. ''Do I care? They can take care of themselves.''
Ulquiorra studies him and regardless of his early statement that the two of them are similar and don't need others, he can see a spark that this hedgehog does seem to care for his team.
''So you believe in them? Pathetic.'' The Espada calls out wanting to test his reaction. Shadow once more scoffs before replying. ''Who said I believe in them?''
Shadow has never admitted any attachment to those teams. Team Dark has a function he has accepted with Rouge wanting jewels while doing her duty as an agent for humanity and Omega wishing to destroy anything Robotnik creates and the doctor himself. He can accept them… not the same thing with Team Dragon Knight. Other than Yugi and possibly Kaiba (that he highly assumes he's not a member because who wouldn't, even himself), the rest are annoying more so from the idiots. However there is one thing, one reason why he's a part of their team and it's something Shadow can acknowledge.
''They don't want to die; they want to live to protect what they believe in. That's more than a reason to fight beside them.'' Shadow expresses having seen their determination, something he wished he could owe like Maria.
Ulquiorra stares at the hedgehog unemotional until he states almost reading through him. ''You view life as important… but do you think so?''
Shadow grits his teeth finally passed the point of rage with this hybrid.
''How about I test how I care about life by eliminating you!'' The black hedgehog proclaims as he comes right at the Espada.
Ulquiorra grits his sword forward and replies as he charges forward too. ''Likewise.''
The two engage in fight as a burst of red and green auras explode around them.
Darkness is all is seen before a strange red light shines. Sakura stirs weakly trying to wake up as the red light she's seeing through her unconscious state is the glow of the 3 Tailed Kyuubi cloak surrounding Naruto.
Kakashi and Yamato watch almost worrying as Naruto is using the Nine-Tails Chakra to enter that state and worst he's not in the right sense of mind to suppress the Tailed Beast's Chakra.
''This isn't good. Naruto is falling under the Kyuubi's influence.'' Yamato examines the situation feeling the Kyuubi trying to control Naruto. At the moment, the spiky blond-headed is doing his best to control himself though his rage is still angrily. Yamato then blinks turning to his superior and noticing the strange face Kakashi is making not related to this.
''Kakashi-senpai?'' He calls him out questionable if something is wrong. Kakashi didn't say a word as he could feel a tense pressure, one he remembers when he was younger.
''This energy… no doubt about it.'' The silver-headed Shinobi says mentally, confirming this to be Aizen. However, he could feel another and whoever this is he or she is about to fight that man.
Nnoitra frowns also feeling his damn pest of a boss's Spiritual Energy, always that massive and he's about to fight that Dragon Knight bug… though he feels completely different. He scoffs wanting to finish that weakling too but first he'll deal with this one.
The Espada returns making his big teeth grin seeing the pest's angry, savage face. He then speaks cocky-like. ''Well just because you surrounded yourself in this pathetic energy doesn't change you're going to die like the trash of your friends!''
Those words hit home to Naruto as his chakra shroud begins boiling by his anger alone. Nnoitra slowly makes a frown seeing the venomous red glow of the weakling's eyes.
''RRRAAAAWWWW!'' Naruto lets loose a destructive howl-like shout that actually sends Nnoitra back with great force. The Espada gasps out stopping himself. He pants never feeling something with such nature before, not even a Menos Grande had such a thing.
''What the hell?!'' Nnoitra demands as he tries to move only for Naruto to instantly launch himself with incredible speed and slams his right fist across the face. The Espada shouldn't feel a thing thanks to his Hierro, the strongest one too, but the punch actually hurt more so than he thought as he's sent flying even further and through multiple buildings.
Kakashi is oddly startled just how much stronger Naruto is compared to the one tail he used against that clay user Akatsuki member.
Naruto, trying his hardest to control the Kyuubi in this state, glares forward as emerging through the buildings he tossed him through is Nnoitra grinning but also furious.
''YOU'RE DONE FOR!'' The 5th Espada shouts dashing with Sonido to get right in front of Naruto as he swings his scythe right at his deck. The Chakra fox shroud surrounding Naruto reacts and pulls the Jinchuriki back, just inches of getting his neck chop off.
Nnoitra becomes angrier as his swing completes charges forward and swings again. Naruto now focus intercepting the scythe with all three of his chakra tails, wrapping themselves to stop the swing in its tracks. Nnoitra startles as he suddenly receives another powerful punch from Naruto. The spiky blond-headed roars expanding the Chakra shroud of his fist until it becomes gigantic, bigger than both of them as it slams the Espada back with a stronger force.
''YOU WEAKLING!'' Further becoming madder, Nnoitra manages to stop himself in midair and charges forward. Naruto sees this and moves in so much faster he surprise uppercuts the Espada upward. Naruto then uses the chakra tails like springs and launches himself faster than the one-eye Espada while forming a glow in between his right claw-like hand.
Nnoitra manages to stop himself once more standing in mid-air. He looks down annoy with big wide teeth where the worm was.
''NINE-TAILS RASENGAN!'' Startled by a loud shout, Nnoitra looks and immediately is hit by Naruto, descending downward like a shooting star, holding rightly on a huge red-purple spiraling sphere. The attack slams the Espada with Naruto into the ground, creating an equally giant crater upon impact, burning everything around them.
Kakashi and Yamato watch feeling the overwhelming Chakra that's growing more within Naruto. The silver-haired Shinobi gazes unease eyeing the other and sees the burn Kanji symbol of 3 in Yamato's palm.
''Naruto is trying not to let the Nine-Tails from consuming him.'' Yamato confirms his superior that Naruto is doing his hardest to not be consumed by the evil of the Kyuubi. Still Naruto is struggling to contain it back from completely possessing him as Yamato adds. ''I still have to remove all that Chakra or else.''
Kakashi watches completely useless right now. All he can do is study this enemy and find a weakness on the enemy.
Naruto slowly dazes as his red demon foxlike eyes, feeling the Kyuubi going to control him like before. He can't let that happen. He can't let him win not until he beats this Espada jerk.
''Focus! I can't let that fox beat me!'' The spiky blond-headed Shinobi reminds himself mentally. He tries to move but feels a sharp pain, noticing his feet were covered in bloody-like red chakra. He panics as it was happening. Suddenly Naruto feels something with greater hatred coming out from the crater, revealing to be Nnoitra now standing in the air.
Nnoitra had scratches on his body and it made even madder than before.
''Enough games!'' The Espada explodes dashing at Naruto. The knuckle-headed acts fast as he surrounds himself with the three chakra tails. Nnoitra grins just stopping right in front of the wall of tails and sticks out his tongue, an eerie yellow light flashes from the tip of his tongue.
''DIE NOW!'' Nnoitra shouts as he fires his Cero pin-point consuming Naruto completely. The Chakra tails were vaporized by the blast the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki screams as he's going to die by this. He isn't going to survive or protect the others. He's going to die… not able to keep his promise to Sakura… to save his friend in the darkness. He won't-
''It seems you still need me don't you, Naruto.'' A voice echoes as Naruto widens his eyes consume in deep water. He looks around and knew where he was; the Kyuubi's cage within himself. He struggles moving his head upward and eyes the giant red fox eye of the Kyuubi through the cage and the smug grin he had.
''I can give you all the power you need… as I FINALLY BREAK FREE!'' The Kyuubi shouts within Naruto's conscious, consuming his host in the darkness.
It was there Sakura wakes up from the screams along with Sai stirring weaken and Sado. The pinkette sees this and screams watching her friend get hit by the blast and slam away for the blast to expand and explode. ''NARUTO!''
Everyone else watches as the blast destroys other buildings near its range, not even sure if Naruto survived that.
Grinning for a moment, Nnoitra slowly makes a frown as something isn't right. He kill the weakling and yet he feels something ominous. Just then a new shout is heard through the smoke of the Cero and blows said smoke away.
''N-no…'' Sakura utters with an expression of fear, knowing this too well.
Emerging from the dust wasn't Naruto; it was but not actually. Covering in dark red shroud resembling blood, his eyes whiten out and having four large fox tails as well as fox ears and claws; it was the Kyuubi's influence controlling Naruto in its fourth tail stage.
''Not again!'' Yamato yells just as terrified to see this form of Naruto's again. Kakashi watches trying to remain in his stoic expression but he's sweating already inform long ago this is the form that almost killed Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin.
''So this is the Fourth Tailed form.'' Kakashi states, gulping a bit while still having a firm face.
Nnoitra stares at this never seeing anything this bizarre before. The human became somewhat Hollow and yet it didn't feel anything like that. Gritting his teeth enrage, the Espada questions whatever this creature was now. ''W-what the hell are you?''
Naruto in his berserk state lets out a terrifying howl, much powerful than the last one. This one actually hits and slams a shock Nnoitra back. The Espada is slide back holding his ground as suddenly Naruto appears in front of him slams a gigantic, expanded right claw at him. Nnoitra is sent flying back as the claw grabs him, squeezing him while extending and expanding forward, slamming him through multiple buildings.
''Y-YOU DAMN-'' Nnoitra yells breaking free from the grip and swings his scythe through claw and even the arm. He smirks but only momentary as the cut arm suddenly morphs and becomes multiple tiny claws. Nnoitra widens his eyes as berserk Naruto makes a savage grin-like expression, slamming the claws at him. The Espada yells as the claws each had a turn to swing, slam, toss, scratch and thrust the Espada around like a ragdoll. If he was a human, he would be dead.
Nnoitra is suddenly hit by a barrage of the tiny claws and sent flying upward. Nnoitra tries to control himself and did only to suddenly be hit across by the head by the claw foot of berserk Naruto that extended up like rubber.
Nnoitra crashes but manages to land on his feet, gritting with a livid glare.
''THAT'S IT!'' Snapping out of control Nnoitra yells already done playing nice with these weak humans and their transforming demon fox. He then adds as his entire body glows a yellow aura, releasing shockwaves that resemble earthquakes. ''Now you're all going to die!''
Berserk Naruto just eyes him and howls charging on all fours. Nnoitra quickly lifts up his scythe over his head but instead of swinging it at the Fourth Tailed Naruto, he yells angrily. ''PRAY!''
Before Naruto could swipe or come closer at the target, Nnoitra's weapon pours out spiritual energy from the empty space of the blade. In that instant his entire body explodes in spiritual energy, pushing back the berserk Jinchuriki back. Kakashi and Yamato brace themselves as did the others, watching as the enemy is changing within the light.
''SANTA TERESA!'' Yelling as he swings his weapon, Nnoitra reveals his new form and it shocks the others while Naruto just eyes him blank.
Nnoitra gains an extra set of arms which take on an insect-like carapace and clawed hands and with each hand holding a large scythe-like weapon as well. The scythes themselves resemble the appendages of a praying mantis, and have a small golden tassel at the end of each staff. He also gains a golden marking extending from his forehead to below his right eye, as well as a pair of horns on his head resembling a crescent moon, with his left horn longer than his right. He gains several white, tendril-like appendages around his torso which extend over the sides of his abdomen. His Hollow mask also changes, becoming torn, with the teeth extending over the hole.
Kakashi stares even more unease, no doubt this is these Arrancars' Resurrección.
"Time to die, weakling!'' Nnoitra declares grinning with the same confidence he was before. He takes a step towards Naruto and immediately swings his scythes now in front of the berserk Jinchuriki. The berserk Fourth Tailed Naruto evades them by stretching himself upward like a noodle. He then raises his arms, enlarging them and slams them hard downward at the Espada. Nnoitra grins defending fast with his scythes intercepting the fists and launches the arms back up stunning the berserk Jinchuriki.
Nnoitra now swings his scythes in a cross-shape slashes. Two of Naruto's chakra tails launches forward and grip around Nnoitra's scythes, stopping them in their tracks. Nnoitra grins evilly as suddenly two extra arms have grown out with each hand carrying a scythe. He swings them with incredible speed, actually slashing Naruto directly. The Espada grins of victory but temporary noticing in shock his blades didn't cut through the Jinchuriki. He widens his eyes shocked trying to swing harder.
''D-damn pest! DIE ALREADY!'' The Espada shouts angrily trying to push back but no budge.
Stirring, Naruto lets out a howl again so destructive strong it was like a barrier of sound. Nnoitra tries to block this with his scythes but this howl is too much and he's sent flying away from the monster, crashing through multiple buildings. Naruto eyes this and lets another howl getting on all fours as the very ground quakes around him and shatters. Yamato watches and feels Naruto is further losing control, certain he might gain a Fifth Tail soon.
''NOW YOU'VE PISSED ME OFF!'' Shouting even louder, Nnoitra dashes out from the holes he went through looking very angrily. Berserk Naruto just stares empty before letting out a howl clawing himself on the ground. Nnoitra grits his teeth sticking out his tongue as blood drips from his lips. Swirls of yellow energy manifests around the tip of his tongue, growing in size.
Naruto oddly grins evilly and opens its mouth. Bubbles form in blue and red colors, uniting together to become a giant purple orb.
''GRAN REY CERO!'' Nnoitra shouts firing a more destructive yellow colored blast from his tongue. Naruto responds and fires a Tailed Beast Bomb immediately. The two blasts collide instantly and clash in a burst of red and yellow. Kakashi and the others watch trying to back away fast. Sakura could only watch in terror really scared and worry for Naruto.
The clashing blasts soon couldn't push the other and both exploded over the other, destroying everything around their radius. The others manage to see this. After the smoke clears entire few blocks are reveal to be completely destroyed; no trace of buildings or cars seen.
Nnoitra pants still standing annoy and worst the Fourth Tailed Naruto now gain its fifth chakra tail as his appearance is even more demonic and wilder than before. Yamato sweats terrify that if they don't stop Naruto and revert this, the Nine-Tails will finally take control of him.
''We have to stop Naruto before the Kyuubi consumes him.'' Yamato tells Kakashi as that should be their most important concern. Kakashi nods but it won't be that easy stating. ''But first we have to defeat the enemy. As much as I hate this, we're going to have to let Naruto in this state to handle this.''
Sakura frowns holding herself, feeling really useless. All she can hope that Naruto can be stopped before it is too late.
''Um Seto… are you sure we can talk?'' Kisara questions as she had an unease expression while sweating. She arrives to check up on Kaiba and then noticed many people unconscious and discovered it was due to this giant man whose being whack back and forth by Blue-Eyes White Dragon and its Alternative White version like a tennis match and that man is the ball.
Kaiba grunts not liking the fact this stupid freak tried to kill him and destroy his company but now the woman is here to annoy him even more so. Deep down, he really doesn't want Kisara near this or she might become a target.
''Leave! You'll only get in my way.'' Seto orders him coldly. Kisara startles not able to see the look in his face but she couldn't leave if Kaiba could get hurt or worst.
''I-I was worry about you!'' The white-haired young lady expresses out only for Kaiba to replies immediately. ''And here I am, now leave.''
Kisara frowns giving a look like she's not leaving. Kaiba didn't bother turning as he grunts hating women and their stubborn nature.
Just then they all begin to feel a strange sensation out of nowhere. It's extremely difficult to be relaxed by this presence.
''W-what strange feeling.'' Kisara utters out astonished. Kaiba didn't say a word as he could only guess this has to do with Yugi.
''YOU ARE PISSING ME OFF BUG!'' The two turn to see Yammy breaking free and firing a Cero from both his hands, piercing through Kaiba's white dragons and destroying them.
Kaiba glares now summoning 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons roaring.
''You first.'' Seto declares not going to waste time with this man and his stupidest.
Sonic and Zommari continue their race battle as the blue hedgehog dashes around the Espada and his Sonido-like clones' sword swings. Sonic smirks feeling a massive energy and he smiles knowing that's probably Yugi showing off.
Zommari could feel his master's Spiritual Energy raising, meaning he will fight seriously.
''Aizen-sama, what kind of fool would challenge you?'' The 7th Espada proclaims somewhat disappointed that he allowed any weak mortal to get in his way. Sonic eyes him and suddenly stops surprising the Espada. He and his clones also stop as the blue hedgehog looks at him firmly.
''I'm pretty sure who and he's no fool!'' Sonic begins to say pointing his finger smirking. He then adds more certain in his words. ''Yugi is going to beat down your boss and he'll do it with style.''
Zommari scoffs softly not surprise this being would side with that child.
''The Dragon Knight was no match for me as you-'' The Espada remarks firmly but suddenly he sees a blue flash. He startles as his clones were all taken down, vanishing into nothing. The real Zommari turns to see Sonic stretching his legs smirking.
''I think it's time you put your words where your mouth is and show me your full power.'' Sonic calls out now wanting to fight the guy at his absolute best. Zommari eyes frowning not believing this creature would demand he wants to fight him at his best. Gripping on his sword handle, the Espada is most certain he will finish this now.
Orihime, with widen eyes, watches terrified as Ichigo's fight against that Espada Grimmjow is not looking well. At first the two were evenly match but then things begin to change as Grimmjow uses his Resurrección and turns the tide.
She watches as the two clashes claws to blade but as even as the two seem, the Espada just grins wildly like an animal with barely any damage while Ichigo had scratches on him already.
The two proceed to swing or swipe attacks only for the other to counter it. Kurosaki tries to use his speed to get an advantage only for Grimmjow to prove he's faster managing to surprise and kick the Substitute Shinigami through a building.
''HAHAHAHA!'' Grimmjow bursts open in laughs. He never felt such rush and he can't help it anymore but desire more. He looks frowning that his prey hasn't emerge out from the hole he kick him into.
''What's wrong Kurosaki?!'' The 6th Espada yells angrily wanting their fight to continue until he's dead. No response from the hole. Grimmjow grins thinking the human can't fight anymore as he calls him out. ''What? You expect me to hold back against you again? Not this time. Now fight me!''
In an instant a dust of wind blows through the hole, Ichigo appears right behind Grimmjow. The Espada slowly turns shock to see his prey's Hollow-like yellow eyes. Kurosaki shouts out swinging his blade downward. ''GETSUGA TENSHO!''
In a wave of darkness, Kurosaki fires his signature attack and consumes the Espada in it. Orihime gulps trying to put up a strong face as the swirl of black, red outline energy wave slams the Espada into the air or so to Ichigo thinks.
''AHAHAHAHAHA!'' Emerging out laughing like a hyena as some blood spills from the attack, Grimmjow tears through the energy wave with his claws. Ichigo widens his eyes as his Getsuga vanishes. He glares at the Espada who grins viciously swinging his claw at him but Ichigo intercepts it with his black blade. The two clash as sparks of their energy fly out.
''Is that all you got?'' Grimmjow asks him wondering if that attack is the best he got. Ichigo lets out an echo-like hiss replying serious. ''Not by chance!''
The 6th Espada grinning comes at Kurosaki with a claw swing as Ichigo swings his blade in respond.
Orihime watches utterly doing nothing as the two clash strikes as Kurosaki's blade grinds on Grimmjow's armor-like body as the Espada grinds on the defending black blade.
''Kurosaki-kun…'' The long orange-haired girl says mentally watching how the person she's admired is fighting to protect everyone and yet… she's only cheering for him. Orihime looks down sadden feeling more useless.
''What good am I if I can't even move to help you?'' She questions her reason to be here not even being able to help him.
''GAAH!'' Orihime snaps out hearing Ichigo's cry. She looks up seeing the Espada slamming his right leg onto Kurosaki's stomach and slams him even harder towards buildings. He smirks following his prey wanting to jab his claw into his chest.
Grimmjow then blinks as he stops. He was following the flying Kurosaki he kicked and now he's vanished through tin air.
''What the-'' The 6th Espada mutters looking around for Kurosaki until suddenly he feels a jabbing pain across his chest. He looks forward and gasps as it is Ichigo, cutting across his chest. Blood drips from the cut as the Espada grits his teeth not believing this.
''What's wrong Grimmjow? Don't tell me that was all you got?'' Ichigo asks him rather cocky as he thrusts his blade forward. Grimmjow hisses blocking the blade with his forearm, pushing the Substitute Shinigami back. The Espada shouts furious like a roar. ''NOT EVEN CLOSE!''
Kurosaki sees Grimmjow forming a Cero in his left claw smirking. Knowing that attack could damage the town, Ichigo takes flight up high. Grimmjow notices it and smirks.
''Flying up so my attack doesn't harm your tiny pathetic town?'' He states figuring the spiky orange-head's plan as the red energy sphere vanishes. Grimmjow grins launching himself with such speed that he blitz through his prey.
Ichigo widens his eyes as Grimmjow appears right in front of him. The Substitute Shinigami immediately panics as the Espada uses his left claw to cut into his right claw. Blood drips from it as suddenly swirls of blue energy gathers in between the palm.
''GRAN REY CERO!'' Grimmjow roars as his palm is engulf in a blue energy sphere.
Knowing he still had time, Kurosaki engulfs his black blade in a vortex of black, red outline energy. Swinging forward, he shouts intensely. "GETSUGA TENSHO!''
In the same time, both Ichigo and Grimmjow's attacks fire and clash the other. Orihime watches before she's suddenly push down her feet, feeling the intense force of the two colliding attacks almost like they were opposing magnets.
The two blasts soon mix, no longer able to push the other and both exploded in a storm of blue and black-red energy. However that didn't stop Ichigo and Grimmjow from clashing, claws to blade.
"WEAK!'' Grimmjow roars dashing towards his prey while swinging his arms like a twister. Ichigo sees through it and blocks the two arm swipes but then instantly gets smack by a surprise axe kick from the Espada. Grimmjow grins like a psycho as his kick slams and crashes the Substitute Shinigami through a building to ground zero.
''HAHAHA! Don't tell me that was-'' Grimmjow, laughing, demands with a cocky grin until he finds a punch across his face by Kurosaki. Grimmjow gasps out as the Substitute Shinigami swings his black blade horizontal towards him. The Espada tries to react but Ichigo slashes him with his sword, thrusting him onto the ground down below. Grimmjow manages to grab the blade and stand his ground, being slide backwards by Ichigo as he stomps his feet tight. The ground starts shredding apart as the two enemies try to overpower the other.
''JUST GIVE UP ALREADY AND DIE!'' Grimmjow yells furious trying to swing his other claw but hits an afterimage of Ichigo instead. The real Ichigo is now behind the Espada who sweats.
''You were saying?'' Ichigo asks him coldly before slashing Grimmjow's back and from there fires a close range Getsuga Tensho, slamming the Espada onto the ground as he's drag away by the energy wave.
Orihime sees this gulping just realizing how different Ichigo was then when he fought that Espada Ulquiorra, almost like he was enjoying himself here.
Getting up panting, Grimmjow turns to face Ichigo smirking wounded but not beaten. He raises his right arm and bends it, pointing his elbow at his prey.
''DODGE THESE! GARRA DE LA PANTERA!'' Grimmjow shouts as he fires up to five dark green, crystalline cut stone-like darts from his elbow at high speed.
One round can destroy a column over 30 meters in diameter. They take the appearance of dark green, crystalline, unevenly cut stone darts.
Ichigo sees these and prepares to stand his ground, not sure if those things can hurt anyone else around him. Orihime panics and reacts on impulse. The claw needle darts were about to hit Kurosaki but just then Orihime leaps in out of nowhere. This shocks the spiky orange-headed as she shouts. ''Santen Kesshun, I reject!''
Three of her pins shot out and forms a bright orange barrier, protecting herself but mostly Ichigo. The needles strike the barrier but Orihime focuses her hardest to make sure her barrier won't crack through. The needles hit and only stab half way through the barrier. Grimmjow startles by this, not expecting the woman to be able to do that.
Kurosaki stares almost astonished as Orihime pants heavily, sweating too weaken. The barrier vanishes and the needles drop on the ground in front of her.
Grimmjow scoffs praising the woman, but still sounding ominous. ''Not bad woman… block these though.''
Orihime widens her eyes as the Espada raises his left arm, pointing with his elbow at her and Kurosaki and fire 5 new darts towards them. Ichigo now panics at impulse, grabbing Orihime and instantly twirls her around to his chest as he uses his back to tank the other 5 darts. They hit almost instantly, no time to dodge them unlike the last ones. Ichigo widens his eyes as blood spits out through the mouth part of his Hollow Mask.
''K-Kurosaki-kun…'' Orihime utters out terrify with frightened eyes for his safely. Ichigo pants a little before replying as he puts her behind him. ''I-I'm fine…''
She frowns, just wanting to help and instead she let him save her again. Just then Orihime notices and startles seeing a crack form on Ichigo's mask.
''His mask…'' The long orange-haired girl tells herself concerning actually scared Ichigo is running out of energy.
Ichigo turns to gaze serious at Grimmjow who stares at him almost like this kid should be dead. He then scoffs speaking rather dissatisfied. ''Wow, you actually decided that was a good thing to block those?''
''Those barely hurt!'' Kurosaki replies mocking the Espada's attempt to harm him. Grimmjow frowns and tells him coldly. ''… Fool.''
He grows his darts back and fires one from his right elbow, hitting the tallest building in Karakura Town and destroys it completely. Ichigo and Orihime widen their eyes by this as Grimmjow tells his prey. ''That's the kind of damage one of my darts did to that building.''
Ichigo glares serious trying to stand his ground though he pants and his arms shake a bit. Grimmjow scoffs noticing the small crack on the Substitute Shinigami's mask. He smirks telling him snarly. ''As far as I can give it, you're now at your limit. The mask shows it.''
''Shows it huh?'' Ichigo questions him knowing well what he's saying. He ignores those thoughts and waves his free hand over his hand. A burst of black-red energy shoots from his palm and vanishes revealing his mask fully restored with no cracks.
''How about now?!'' Ichigo asks him now loudly pointing his black blade forward. Grimmjow scoffs again oddly grinning that this kid just doesn't stop when he clearly knows he can't win.
''Stubborn fool.'' The Espada tells him back clinching his claws at him. Ichigo glares and spots the wounds and battle damage his enemy had.
''You're just as stubborn as I am. You've taken my slashes and they've injury you.'' Kurosaki reminds him firmly that he can easily lose too.
Grimmjow smirks, not going to lie that the damage he took didn't hurt because it does.
''That's what I like and hate about you Kurosaki. Just right now you desire to fight me to the bitter end! That is what it should be!'' Grimmjow calls out grinning insanely loving this.
Kurosaki, however, glares angrily refusing to ever admit he wants to enjoy something that isn't him, calling him back. ''WRONG! What I fight for is different than your twisted reason!''
''Tch. Then let's find out which one of us has reached their limit.'' Scoffing at his respond, the 6th Espada declares extending his claws. Ichigo didn't show any emotion due to his mask declaring back just as serious dashing forward. ''Fine with me! Here I come Grim-''
Before he reaches the Espada, Ichigo senses something and moves to the left dodging a fiery energy beam tearing through a tiny hole on the ground where he was flying over. Ichigo panics as did Grimmjow uttering out. ''W-what the hell?!''
Orihime blinks looking up and immediately yells panicking. ''KUROSAKI-KUN! Up above!''
Kurosaki looks up and widening his eyes he spots thousands of other black scaled dragons with sharp, beak-like dragon mouths and wider wings. On top of those there were also other dragons; one with sharp claws and others with lances. Only seeing them a few times, Ichigo knew what these things were.
''These are the Dark Lord's monsters. Why the hell are they here?'' The spiky orange headed questions greatly surprise. The dragons roar and some go towards Ichigo who stands his ground to fight them now.
And it wasn't just him but at the same time the rest of Team Dragon Knight not counting Yugi's group that is under attacked by the Dark Lord's Dark Dragon Hunters and Dark Dragon Soldiers as well as the new versions. Akumu watches in the safety of his base grinning excitedly to the destruction he prepares to lay upon Team Dragon Knight and the Espada… all but one with Grimmjow being completely ignored.
Can Team Dragon Knight handle the Espada on top of the Dark Lord's Dark Dragon minions?
Commercial Break:
Ichigo K: If I don't beat Grimmjow now, I won't be able to protect everyone else. I have to end this!
Yugi: I don't have time for this when my friends needs me. Let's settle this, Aizen-kun!
Mew Ichigo along with Mew Erika and Mew Plum who was being treated by the cat girl removing the poison out of her system watch silently eyeing Yugi gazing at the madman Aizen. Ichigo, having seen the incredible power of the Dragon Knight's Dragon Blade mode, knows without a second thought that he can do anything.
''Partner, careful. Urahara Kisuke has warned you this man is not one to be tempted with.'' Atem, appearing in spirit form, warns Yugi. The tricolor head nods fully aware that he has to take Aizen as serious as the Dark Lord if not more. Pissing him off won't work the same way as the evil dragon.
Aizen smiles confident, remaining most calm as he could see the sense a presence within Yugi if not two more. From his assumptions, one of them must be this Nameless Pharaoh and the other… yes, must be the legendary two-headed dragon of creation and destruction. How interesting to get a decent challenge for once.
"Yugi-kun…'' Muttering his name, remembering the promise he made, the cat girl looks up smiling as she then shouts energetically. ''KICK HIS BUTT NYA!''
Yugi oddly blushes hearing her voice and nods to her wishes for him. However he frowns seeing Aizen smirking at his reaction.
"You heard your ''kitty cat''. Shall we skip warm-ups and proceed to the main event?'' Aizen inquires him rather joyful to fight the young Dragon Knight. He's become more than patient to see just how strong the boy really is compared to his father.
Trying to smirk, Yugi replies honestly. ''Yup and she's my Strawberry Kitten!''
Mew Ichigo blushes really red like a strawberry by his words, not wanting to giggle.
''Childish.'' Aizen mutters by Yugi's immature response.
(Now playing OST… Battle of God from Yu-Gi-Oh! DM)
Without reacting, Yugi immediately dashes with such speed that a later second he swings his sword in front of Aizen who, being the only one to see him coming at him, intercepts the Dragon Blade with Kyoka Suigetsu. Both blades within less than a second to everyone else clash in a violent sparks of steel and burst of wind. The Mew Mews were almost blown away by this while Gin and an injured Tosen were able to stand their ground partly.
Shadow Knight, with his arms crossed, watches from the shadows seeing closely if Yugi can fight Aizen at his current level. If he must, he'll step in. For now, he'll observe to see how far the young man has gotten. Still, Yugi's decision to make the first move was wise. Letting Aizen to setup would have gotten him killed.
Yugi and Aizen gaze at the other as they proceed to back away and clash their blades once more, creating the same powerful shockwave as before. Everyone is forced to brace themselves from the force of their clashing blade.
''Just the force of their swords clashing the other is this overwhelming!'' Mew Plum utters out astonished never seeing such strength.
''Impossible. This boy is able to match up to Aizen-sama's sword swings!'' Tosen questions in rage not able to accept this. Gin just grins not at all caring about it, just enjoying the show.
''That's very interesting. That means we get to see Captain Aizen taken serious.'' The silver-haired Shinigami states still grinning.
Yugi and Aizen continue to parry the other's super-fast sword swings against the other, multiple sparks flashing all around them. And they weren't simple sword swings, they were ones by elites trying to outmaneuver the other's swings to cut the other but instead the other blocks the upcoming attack without any difficulty. It also didn't help that Yugi tries swinging strong swings to intercept Aizen's quick swings with enough force to regroup from that swing. Aizen picks up from these that Yugi is much more defensive than offense, something interesting to take advantage of later.
Mew Ichigo blinks speechless as the way the two swung their swords at the other were like blurs.
Yugi then tries swinging again but only for Aizen to go for an interception. The Dragon Knight smirks as his blade hits Aizen's but as it did he twirls his body around to the right. Aizen sees this as the boy releases the grip on his blade and grabs it again now using his left hand. Still in motion, Yugi twirls himself along with the Dragon Blade, grinding across Aizen's sword around him and swings it to the left now. Aizen didn't have much time to react as he dashes with Shunpo, evading the slash. Yugi misses but he proceeds to charge forward with a burst of Dragon Speed Burst.
Everyone else tries to keep up as the two clash blades in high speed in the air. These strikes were able to dissipate the very clouds above them and even the air itself. Mew Ichigo blinks once more silent not sure what's even going on anymore.
After clashing blades for the hundredth time, Yugi instantly vanishes and reappears at Aizen's left side. He shouts swinging horizontal at the villain. ''DRAGONAUN SLASH!''
The Dragon Blade is instantly consumed in its purple, red outline energy as the blade becomes a longer energy blade. The swinging attack comes at Aizen however he just smirks lifting up his left forearm at it.
''El Escudo.'' He speaks as a light green barrier appears in between his arm and the blade, blocking the powerful slash and even shatters the energy blade it took.
Yugi, however, smirks as within an instant three Dragon Clones appear on the other three corners of Aizen's ends. He startles by this realizing this is the boy's real attack.
''He can create clones without those silly hand seals?'' Aizen realizes within that moment and smirks rather impressed. However not enough as he lifts up the index finger of his sword hand and utters as a spark ignites on his finger. ''Hado #4. Byakurai.''
The real Yugi widens his eyes and vanishes in that very second as Aizen's finger generates and fires a destructive bolt of lightning, vaporizing everything around him including the Dragon Clones.
(End of OST)
The very lightning attack almost hits the Mew Mews though Mew Ichigo manages to cancel it with a Ribbon Chidori Current, cancelling the lightning attack with her lightning ribbons.
''Darn, Yugi almost had him there woof!'' Mew Plum proclaims upset that had to happen. Mew Ichigo nods softly though Mew Erika had a feeling this man would be that hard to beat that easily.
Gin hums rather surprise not seeing his former Captain use another Kido that wasn't #90.
''Oh how ironic. I don't think I haven't seen Captain Aizen used a Hado in a long time.'' Gin remarks almost forgetting that Aizen is known to be a Kido Master of the highest level, able to perform almost and honestly any Kido imaginable. Then again, even then Aizen is highly untouchable.
Tosen nods and realizes that the only reason Lord Aizen would even result to using Kido means the boy is that strong.
''This boy is much like Aizen-sama stated; a threat.'' He states firmly not wanting to find out how his lord would handle the boy's strongest attack.
Aizen smirks looking up above him and spots Yugi there hovering over the air looking back at him.
''How interesting.'' Aizen suddenly says out of context. Yugi raises an eyebrow questioning him. ''On what?''
Smirking, Aizen tells him. ''On the assumption that you haven't used that attack that defeated Tosen.''
Trying not to make a shocking expression, Yugi instead says rather relaxed and puzzled. ''Huh, that is interesting.''
Shaking his head, Aizen has seen through his lie and states. ''Lying aren't we? I thought I told you lying isn't your thing, Yugi-kun.''
Yugi now frowns gulping a bit. This guy could see through him like a see-through drawing.
''Dragonaun Tengoku, more powerful than the Dragon Slice Attack and the Dragonaun Tensho put together and doubled, is my strongest move.'' Yugi reminds himself mentally from what he learned through his training. He knows this for sure the power his Dragonaun Tengoku eclipses any attack or technique he has right now. None of them compare or even try to match up to it… but it has a weakness that is extremely obvious even to Yugi.
''However you can't spam it like the other two.'' Atem suddenly states telepathically also aware of these weaknesses too. Yugi nods remembering what that energy dragon being told him that time.
''That dragon in me, whatever it is or could be the being that connects to my signature attacks, left me details on my Burst Limit and one of which is if I use up Dragonaun Tengoku, the Dragon Blade and this mode will revert back to the Dragon Sword and my normal form.'' Yugi says recalling what the creature advice him. At first the news shocked him but also made him realize he mustn't be reckless with that power.
''And you told me you can only fire 3 of them per day or else you won't be able to reactivate the mode again.'' Atem adds to what Yugi had told him. The tricolor head nods firmly and that's the worst thing about it. He can only fire 3 of his most powerful attack in that mode and if he does, he won't be able to use it again and the mode will end.
Shaking off his thoughts, Yugi eyes his partner and responds to his early statement. ''I didn't want to test the theory because I can only reactivate the mode after a few days of rest and as far as I know, I don't know how long that is.''
''That just means you have to save up the other two Dragonaun Tengokus you have left.'' Yin Dragon suddenly speaks up popping in into the conversation. Yugi sweat drops smiling but nods. Yang Dragon then adds trying to be positive. ''And you need all your techniques to beat this man who has greater power than you Yugi-san.''
Yugi nods agreeing with them. As incredible the power of Dragonaun Tengoku gives him, trading that over the superior speed and blade with the Dragon Blade mode is too risky.
He then charges at Aizen as he thinks while he and the Shinigami engage in high speed sword clashes. ''The Dragon Blade and its Burst Limit gives me incredible power to defeat anyone and keep my friends safe. I can't afford losing the mode not till I beat Aizen-kun.''
Aizen oddly smirks softly as he suddenly grabs Yugi by the throat to the Mew Mews horror. However Yugi smirks to Aizen confusion.
''That's why I ask Urahara-san to teach me these.'' The tricolor head declares mentally while raising his free hand forward. Aizen notices this and before he could react Yugi calls out words from his mouth. ''Bakudo #4: Hainawa!''
Widening his eyes, Aizen watches as yellow energy rope comes out of Yugi's free hand and within a second said rope wraps itself around his body. Aizen immediately feels the effects of the Bakudo, immobilizing him in place.
Mew Ichigo drops her jaw as Yugi pulls himself away from the once strong grip Aizen had on his neck. The cat girl stares speechless having seen that trick from Rukia but never would she expect Yugi could use it too.
''Kido? Yugi can use that now?'' Mew Plum questions aware of the Shinigami's spells but she didn't know her own brother could use them too. Mew Ichigo just eyes her just as surprise, muttering. ''T-this is new to me Nya.''
Mew Erika oddly smiles as Yugi is always the type to improve himself even learning new tricks to be a step ahead of his enemies.
Even Shadow Knight is taken back by removing his arms off their crossed position.
Tosen is shocked by this surprise while Gin grins almost excited.
Aizen, once stun, slowly smiles softly as if this is wonderful. Yugi notices that look as the former Captain speaks. ''I must admit, Eli never was able to use Kidos and here you are performing a simple one he couldn't do no less without the chant.''
Yugi didn't say a word having a feeling Aizen won't lose by being restrained.
(Now playing OST… Invasion from Bleach)
''However even this won't be enough. Hado #11: Tsuzuri Raiden.'' Aizen proclaims suddenly grabbing onto the yellow energy rope and conducts an electric current through his hand across said rope.
Seeing that surprised, Yugi releases the grip off the energy rope and backs away fast evading the electrical current. Aizen expects him to do that smiling as the rope is suddenly torn apart by his Spiritual Energy. Yugi braces himself feeling the man's overflowing energy and it feels almost bottomless.
''If you intend to beat a Kido Master, I suggest you use a better spell than that.'' Aizen calls Yugi out to try better. Yugi gazes at him and smirks raising his left hand forward.
''How about this?! Bakudo #61: Rikujokoro!'' Yugi declares chanting as he points his free hand's index finger at Aizen. Mew Ichigo startles remembering that as just then Yugi's finger generates a yellow energy spark. As this happen, the remains of the energy rope glow and shot upward around Aizen. They take the form of six thin, wide beams of light that instantly slam themselves into Aizen's midsections and remain I place. Aizen watches this with such a startled yet excited expression. He tries moving but not even his fingers were able to move.
Mew Ichigo smiles amazingly Yugi could even do this so easily. Yugi didn't remove his eyes off Aizen who is still smiling rather confident.
''Not bad once again… but…'' Suddenly flicking his finger, Aizen unleashes his Spiritual Energy to tear apart the 6 beams of light and shatter them. Yugi is pushed back by Aizen's energy too, shocking how overflowing his power felt. Like an endless pit that has no bottom.
Once more free, Aizen lifts a finger from his free hand and calls out as Yugi sees a discharge of red sparks fly off his finger. ''Hado #31: Shakkaho.''
Quickly reacting, Yugi turns and flies off at top speed just as Aizen immediately generates an orb of crimson red energy from his finger and fires it, becoming a gigantic pillar of destructive fiery energy that burn even the air and the clouds. The Mew Mews watch as Yugi flies at top speed through multiple trees in hopes it would slow down the attack but the flames incinerate through them continuing to chase the Dragon Knight.
Knowing better now, Yugi without even hesitating launches himself upward into the sky finally dodging the flames. Aizen watches this with a grin while seeing the young man raising his free arm forward and stretch. He stares closely as he could feel the boy's spiritual energy growing within him.
''Cry and engulf the world I wish to see embrace by light!'' Yugi chants as the palm of his hand glows brightly from an electrical flash of light.
''Hado #88! Hiryu Gekizoku Shinten Raiho!'' Yugi shouts almost like a roar as his flat free hand fires a gigantic beam of electrical, spiritual energy at full speed. In that instant the tricolor head gasps out feeling a bone snap or pop out from his socket.
The other Mew Mews watch in shock as the blast comes at full force towards Aizen. The former Captain watches and just couldn't help himself but smile.
''Bakudo #81: Danku.'' With his arms down and never once raising them, Aizen chants as within an instant a see-through large, wall-like barrier of a rectangular shape. The destructive electric energy blast slams itself on the barrier setting off a massive explosion. The force of the explosion actually sends the three Mew Mews off their feet while Gin and Tosen were forced to back away. Yugi defends with his Dragon Blade, twirling it around to its flat side like a wall to block the force of the blast.
The tricolor head watches managing to stand his ground and seeing the large cloud of smoke and torn ground. Yugi sweat drops a little taken back that attack could do much. Sadly he grunts feeling his left arm almost broken from using that Kido. What Urahara said about that technique could have a drawback on his body isn't kidding.
Yugi watches closely oddly sweating. Mew Ichigo grunts still on the ground getting up to see the large smoke of what was Yugi's attack… but she could oddly feel it didn't do anything. Mew Plum, sweating much like her younger brother, can still smell the scent of the enemy and he's very much still alive.
A gust of wind within the smoke cloud dissipates it in moments, revealing Aizen still smiling and his rectangular barrier still intact.
A defensive wall is created to protect against an enemy's attack. The practitioner creates a translucent barrier in the form of a large rectangular wall. According to 6th Division Captain Byakuya Kuchiki, it can stop Kido-based attacks with power up to level 89,
Not much surprise by this, Yugi was warned before from Urahara and Tessai that Aizen is capable of blocking that Kido with this Bakudo being referred as the strongest defensive wall. The tricolor head frowns hoping if he used the attack, it could have broken through Aizen's defense but that just means Aizen is that much powerful.
Aizen continues smiling recalling how his own prowess could stop a Kido belong from the former captain of the Kido Corps. Chuckling a bit at how immense he was to other Shinigami or even those with Spiritual Energy, it is somewhat refreshing to know that right now he is still that. Such humorous thing to be laughing about.
''That takes me back.'' Aizen mutters to himself before eyeing Yugi. The tricolor head glares just noticing the barrier vanishing. Aizen then lifts up his Zanpakuto horizontally in front of the Dragon Knight. Yugi stares blinking until he startles as a strange yellow orb begins forming in the middle of the sword and stretches itself among the blade.
''Hado #32: Okasen.'' Aizen chants as the yellow glow fires itself into a wide, horizontal arc of energy. Unlike other Shinigami that are only able to make the arc not extend as far as they want it, Aizen's superior skills and Spiritual Energy cause his attack to become wider and extend longer in a faster pace. Yugi barely had a second to think as the arc consumes him and in an instant slams him through a building and the one behind it. The energy arc then vanishes completely its job.
(End of OST)
''Y-Yugi-kun!'' Mew Ichigo yells worrying for the tricolor head. She tries to run to him but Mew Plum calls her back. ''W-wait! He's okay!''
The cat girl blinks looking back. Aizen stares at the hole he shoved Yugi in and then sees something. Within that hole he sees purple and red swirls of energy in the form of a sphere. He smirks softly getting it declaring it. ''Oh? A barrier?''
The Mew Mews watch as they see the swirls but then they vanish and almost in front of their eyes Yugi comes out not sure when he got out but did standing afar but close to Aizen. Not taking any damage and smiling cocky, Yugi explains himself. ''Dragonaun Barrier; my defensive move.''
''Impressive. I see that's also a new power you gain too no?'' Aizen questions him still smirking just to taunt the boy. The young Dragon Knight remains calm as he takes a step and in that second he appears right in front of Aizen almost like he teleported swinging the Dragon Blade vertically. Aizen smirks disappearing and reappearing to Yugi's right side, swinging his own sword horizontal towards him.
The tricolor head sees that and instead of dodging it he spins his whole body around and intercepts Aizen's swing by the sudden Dragon Blade blocking it while striking the ground. This staggers Aizen briefly giving the young Dragon Knight the chance. Yugi then swings a strong kick that Aizen blocks with his forearm. This surprised the tricolor head as that kick should have snap a bone or something. Taking this as a warning, Yugi twirls himself almost floating fast as he swings his sword while upside down, tearing through the ground the blade had stabbed. Aizen sees this and intercepts the swing once more with his own.
Both resist the other's sword swing and push themselves back. Yugi flies back regaining proper pose as he flies right back at Aizen. The brown headed villain just chuckles a bit, vanishing through Shunpo to appear right at Yugi's left side and swings his sword right away. Sensing him, Yugi spins the Dragon Blade and blocks the sword swing right there then.
Yugi then twirls to his left, extending back his left fist as his arm is healed up by Yin-Yang Dragon's regeneration ability as it is engulfing in purple-red swirls of fiery energy.
''DRAGONAUN KNUCKLE!'' Yugi shouts thrusting his fiery fist right forward. Aizen startles forming El Escudo with his right arm, blocking fiery fist. Yugi glares trying to break through but no luck but he didn't change his smirk.
Aizen notices this, looking downward and widens his eyes, seeing Yugi's sword suddenly pointing at him. Aiming with the tip of his sword swirls of purple and red fiery energy gather as Yugi shouts. ''DRAGONAUN BURNING!''
Yugi immediately unleashes a powerful sphere of purple-red flames towards an expose Aizen in pin-point range. Aizen with slightly widen eyes reacts and moves his left arm to form another El Escudo, blocking the flame attack in that same instant. The flames connect and explode like a grenade, burning everything around them.
Mew Ichigo watches silently, biting her lips about Yugi's safety. Mew Plum watches too but she could still smell both her brother and that man's scent, meaning they are still very much alive.
Just then the flames of Yugi's attack begin to swirl around almost like a whirlwind and then dissipate away like a bomb, revealing Yugi and Aizen clashing blades once more. Mew Ichigo sighs of relief but still concern that Yugi hasn't made one effective blow on the guy.
Gin just grins just as amazed that Aizen hasn't left a scratch on the kid, a surprise above anything else.
Yugi and Aizen's blade continue grinding onto the other with sparks flying all over the other. Yugi could feel his very essence is being sharpened by Aizen's. Not the best words to suit the situation but it feels overwhelming and if he wasn't in his Dragon Blade mode, he would have likely passed out.
The two, not making a budge over the other, back away as quickly as they started. Yugi watches breathing softly not heavy but he can feel his body still not used to Dragon Blade mode yet. He can't let this fight prolong too far or else Aizen who's used to his powers will win and he'll stop being alive.
Aizen didn't say a word but rather smirks softly how far this boy grew from the short time he engaged his Espada. He didn't expect such a difference of growth, almost certain the young man will surpass his father.
"I'll admit.'' Aizen begins to speak putting down his sword arm. Yugi still holds forward the Dragon Blade with both hands on guard. Aizen smirks seeing that as he resumes speaking. ''I haven't struggle like this not since your father.''
The tricolor head blinks not sure how to feel or what he meant by that. He really has to figure out if his father could time travel or something. It would help Judai and his friends to return to their time.
''Thanks?'' Yugi responds rather puzzle. Smiling at the cluelessness of the boy's nature, Aizen then states moving his sword hand forward. ''However…''
Yugi stares and slowly widens his eyes. Aizen is now holding his Zanpakuto in a reverse grip in front of the tricolor head. Mew Erika sees that and panics heavily remembering that all too well; his sword's illusion power.
Shadow Knight, not able to show any emotions since his real face is covered by his helmet mask, clinches his fingers angrily as this won't end well.
''I've seen enough. As much as I enjoy you Yugi-kun, you will not become the one who will challenge me. The only one that will is Ichigo Kurosaki and that's a real shame for you.'' Aizen announces no longer going to play this enjoyable game with Yugi and will instead finish any hope of him in winning this fight. Yugi sweats almost terrified, having been warned too well if he falls under the power of Aizen's Zanpakuto; he's dead.
The Dragon Knight proves to be almost equal in power to the likes of the strongest Shinigami however Aizen is about to put an end to it with his Zanpakuto; Kyoka Suigetsu. Can Yugi stop him from using his sword's invincible ability? Or is this the end?
To be continued…
(ENDING 3: HANABI by Ikimono Gakari from Bleach)
Thank you for another great episode. I thank those who are helping me get this story notice and enjoy it. For those who love it, please review my story and give me your opinions or thoughts to it.
Next Time…
The climax of this grand fight closes in as Yugi does his best to prevent Aizen from using Kyoka Suigetsu. However, will he succeed? Meanwhile reinforcements have finally arrived but will that become hopeless too as the Dark Lord commences his sneak attack on all fractions.
Yugi: Just because you have that illusion ability doesn't mean you won't get the chance to use it!
Aizen: Interesting. However, will you truly think you can stop me?
Yugi smirks: I can because if I don't then I lose everything.
DragonKnight15: The Battle slowly reaches a Climax. Can Yugi stop Aizen from using Kyoka Suigetsu? Or-
Aizen: He has already lost and that there is no turning back. Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: The Absolute Perfect Hypnosis!
Yugi: HEY! I am not finished yet. Geez…
Mew Ichigo sweat drops: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya? Yugi-kun, please beat him PLEASE.
Author's Note: Every Espada (and Ichigo but later) can do Gran Rey Cero… only fair they do that than just Grimmjow (or Ichigo later on)
So Yugi's Dragon Blade Mode has a unique time limit in which if he uses all three Dragonaun Tengoku, the mode turns off and Yugi won't be able to activate the mode for a few days. I think it's a reasonable condition and I will mention the number of times he can use his signature attack over the course of DKR. How many times in total? Can't say. You'll just have to keep reading no?
I should mention this but the reason why there's a condition to how long Yugi can be in Dragon Blade Mode through not using his signature attack is because to give him a reason to improve and improvise in situations where he needs to use different skills and abilities like we've seen with Yugi using Kido Spells as best he can with his other techniques.
On the same topic… Aizen is a Kido Master… let him use ANY Kido just for the fun, Kubo… but I get it why you did not.
Let me know down in your reviews if I made the right call.
Also I apologize the title of this chapter wasn't like 75% of the whole thing being Yugi VS Aizen. There's still a lot of the other fights to do and next chapter too.
Also Hado #88 had never revealed its chant (not even in filler) so I made a short one that fit the Kido as best as I could… I hope you all liked it.
