Hollow Zangetsu Old Man Zangetsu Regular

Chapter 50 The Fall

Ichigo was fighting two arrancars at the same time, He's been holding his own since sunset, the moon was starting to come up. He was holding his own against the male arrancar but the female arrancar, Erika, jumped in and they were pushing him more than he wanted. Whenever Ichigo charged the man, Erika jumped in front of him swing her sword causing him to block and focus on her. Whenever Ichigo was focused on Erika, the man would go for a sneak attack from behind only to find that his hierro was stronger than he thought.

Ichigo was currently standing across from the two panting a little, his shihakusho was in taters, the shihakusho covering his upper body was basically cut to pieces, revealing the giant black X tattoo on his chest and the smaller ones on his forearms which were usually covered by the sleeves. Ichigo didn't look damaged thanks to his regeneration.

Out of the two arrancars, Erika was the most damaged since she would get in the way to protect the other guy. She was covered in bleeding cuts all over. She was bleeding from cuts on her back, arms, legs, stomach, and a couple on her cheeks. She was bleeding a lot from her left arm because she would block a swing aimed at the man but wouldn't block with her sword fast enough.

the man had a couple of cuts on his arms, chest, his right leg, and on his back. He looked pretty much unharmed from what Ichigo could see, his clothes were just as tattered as Ichigo's pants. "I seem to have underestimated you, I was sure that I could beat you with little effort from my part but it would seem that I have to get serious now." The man said making Ichigo focus on him if he was going to try anything.

"Erika if you would so kindly lend me some power from the surrounding air. I don't think that Ichigo is worthy of me having to release my zanpakuto." The man said put his left hand out in front of Erika who nodded and put one hand on the man's hand and the other in the air glowing blue. Ichigo couldn't sense the man's spirit energy increasing but he could feel his spiritual pressure increasing.

'It would seem that she's giving him more power from the magic in the air. Ichigo judging from his spiritual pressure he's three times more powerful than he was earlier.' Old Man Zangetsu warned Ichigo. 'Three times stronger, HA. Come on old man, Ichigo still the stronger one here. He hasn't even gone all out with his shikai just yet. And he still has bankai just in case, along with the THING I trained him to use.' Zangetsu told the other Zangetsu and Ichigo at the same time.

'I still haven't gone all out yet but that doesn't mean he was going all out earlier.' Ichigo told his spirits. Erika hands stopped glowing and she let go of the man's hands. The man smirked and looked at Ichigo with a look of amusement. "Erika sit this one out, I'll take care of him on my own at full power plus the power you gave me." The man said as he shot forward at Ichigo at high speeds.

Ichigo was barely able to block the swing from his left in time. The force from the swing launched Ichigo to his right through some trees. Ichigo flipped in mid air and pushed himself forward from a tree trunk destroying it in the process. Ichigo was heading straight at the man before he disappeared from his sight. "What the!?" Was all Ichigo got out of his mouth before he face was slammed and dragged across the forest floor.

"Is this the power of the human who defeated the great Aizen? Such a disappointment." The man said as he was still dragging Ichigo's face across the ground. Ichigo swung Zangetsu backwards forcing the man to let go of his face and jump backwards. Ichigo stood up spitting dirt from his mouth. "That power boost you got from that girl was more than I expected." Ichigo said as he wiped the dirt from his face.

"That's Erika's power, she can double, triple, or even quadruple the power of whatever she wishes. She can give that power to herself as well as to anything she wants increasing it's physical strength, speed, endurance, durability, spirit energy or even take away energy from those same things from whatever she chooses. She did it to Jellal Fernandes increasing his own power by 4 times to fight you." The man said watching Ichigo for any openings.

"The best part is the power she gives stays with whatever she empowered unless she takes it back from them. It was this ability that allowed her to be able to keep up with you earlier." The man said still looking for an opening from Ichigo. Ichigo stayed focused on the man then he felt Nirvana's power change causing him to look in that direction.

What he saw was something he was wasn't expecting, a giant ancient city resting on top of a huge chunk of earth and holding the earth along with the city was eight giant legs made from stone allowing it to walk. This gave the opening the man was looking for and he sonidoed behind Ichigo and swung downward. Everything was silent from a moment as if time stopped completely.

The surprise on the man's face when he saw the blue lines of Blut Vene glowing on the spot where he hit. Ichigo turned around with a smirk on his face and swung Zangetsu upwards across the man's chest than the man sonidoed away holding his hand over his new injury. "You wouldn't think that I would leave myself open like that did you?" Ichigo said smirking at the man then rested Zangetsu on his shoulder.

"How are you still stronger then me? At full power I'm four times stronger than when we started and the triple boost to my power from Erika should've made me stronger than you. How are you stronger than me?" The man said with anger in his eyes. Ichigo looked at the man with pity in his eyes and a frown. "I'm not stronger at the moment, you're stronger in power, you just left yourself open in that moment." Ichigo said as he stood his ground.

"I well not lose to you, I well rule this new world and I won't let anybody get in my way. ERIKA" The man said as Erika sonidoed behind him and put her hand on his back glowing blue once more. After a couple of minutes the man stood up with four times the power he had earlier. "I'M ANTONIO CAIMAN, I WELL NOT LOSE TO SUCH TRASH!" Antonio said as he sonidoed in front of Ichigo winging downward.

Ichigo blocked but the force of the swing forced him on one knee and made a small crater under his feet. 'Damn his power is even stronger than before. If I don't do something quick I might die.' Ichigo thought to himself. Antonio kneed Ichigo in the jaw then grabbed his face and slammed the back of his head into a tree breaking it on impact.

Antonio threw Ichigo into the sky with little effort and sonidoed above him and charged a green cero. Ichigo quickly started gathering energy for a getsuga. The two released their attacks at the same time creating a small explosion. From the cloud of smoke Ichigo was falling to the ground, burned in several places. His regeneration was kicking in but not as fast as before and Blut Vene was working to stop the blood from flowing out of his wounds.

Ichigo still had the strength to flash step inches form the ground. When he reappeared he was on his knees using Zangetsu for support. Antonio sonidoed a good distance in front of Ichigo. "Was that all you could offer me? I'm somewhat impressed with how long you've lasted against me. I was going to spare you but than you went and pissed me off so this is good bye." Antonio said as launched himself forward at Ichigo.

Ichigo was able to raise Zangetsu to block the swing but he didn't expect what happened next. Antonio swung down breaking Zangetsu in half as well as slicing Ichigo's chest with one swing. Ichigo was laying on the ground bleeding out, no longer having the strength for regeneration or for Blut Vene to stop the bleeding.

"It seems that I put more power into that swing than I thought, I wanted to have some more fun." Antonio said as he started to walk away not bothering to look at Ichigo. Erika looked at Ichigo with some pity in her eyes but managed to hide it with an emotionless face. The two were walking away when they felt a huge spiritual pressure hit them causing the two to stop moving and looked back at the source.

Ichigo was standing up straight looking at the two arrancar. Ichigo's wounds were all healed as if he was never hurt to begin with. He held the broke Zangetsu in his hand and glared at the two in front of him. Ichigo started glowing blue and the wind started to pick up around him. "What do you think you can do with that broken shikai of yours?" Antonio said with a sweatdrop rolling down his forehead.

Ichigo raised the broken Zangetsu in front of him and put his other hand on his forearm. "BAN-KAI!" Ichigo said as a beam of blue light shot into the air than it started to turn black laced in red. The wind around him picked up at dangerously high speeds destroying the small section of the forest he was in. When the dust cleared and the beam of black light was gone it revealed Ichigo in his bankai clothing, holding Tensa Zangetsu in his hand.

"King all your wounds are healed now don't go around trying to die, it's a pain in the ass trying to heal you." Zangetsu said smiling within Ichigo's inner world. "Ichigo the power we've given you should be enough to win this fight now." Tensa said causing Ichigo to smirk a bit. 'That's good cause I was running on fumes after that cero. Thanks you two for giving me the power I need to win this.' Ichigo mentally thanked his two zanpakuto spirits.

"Ichigo I've told you before, what I want to protect is you. The power I gave you should be enough for you to win this." Tensa said with a smile on his face, the only one who could see was the other Zangetsu increasing his smirk even more. "Go kick his ass King, show him your power." Zangetsu said with giving Ichigo some more power.

Ichigo could feel the surge of power from both Tensa and Zangetsu. Ichigo raised Tensa Zangetsu and pointed at Antonio. "Now we can really fight without hold much back." Ichigo said with his scowl in place. Antonio started laughing like a mad man. "This is great no I can fight you without killing you on accident." Antonio said raising his zanpakuto and the two charged at each other.

On Nirvana at the same time

Jellal and Erza were making their way through the ancient city when they saw the beam of blue shoot into the air. At first they didn't know what to think of about it. When it turned black laced with red Erza knew that Ichigo must be fighting someone strong to use his bankai. Not even the Oracion Seis were able to force him to use it in their scuffle with him earlier that day.

Erza looked at Jellal who seemed interested with the black and red beam of energy coming from Ichigo. "Ichigo" Was all Jellal said about the beam before walking back in the direction they were heading. Erza wasn't sure Jellal at first, when she heard his name when she was healed she felt angry at him and she wanted to kill him but on the way to Nirvana which was where Jellal was according to Natsu, she thought what would she do when she faced the man who killed one of hers, no their friends.

When she came face to face to Jellal she wasn't expecting him to forget everything about himself. The only thing, as far as she could tell at the time, was that he could only remember the name Erza. She thought that he was faking it at first so she threatened to kill him if he was faking it. after a while of hanging around him she felt bad about the stuff she said earlier to him.

"Jellal do you remember anything yet?" Erza asked him in curiosity. Jellal looked back at her and looked away. "Something about that beam of black energy seemed familiar to me. A name came into mind when I saw it. Ichigo and an image of orange came with it. I don't know what that means to me." Jellal said as he grabbed his face as if to remember.

Before Erza could say anything the two heard a loud explosion coming from within the city. "What was that an explosion just now?" Erza asked out loud. "It was from the direction of the King's room." Jellal said to Erza then he heard footsteps from behind him "Father is so nasty... Taking my enjoyment away from me." A voice said from behind them making them turn around.

"You guys are the last prey left for me. Let's have some fun." Said Midnight with a smirk. Erza and Jellal looked at him with a look of determination. "Erza stay back I'll handle him." Jellal said walking in front of her shocking Erza. "Jellal are sure about this?" Erza said looking at him with a small hint of worry. Jellal smirked a bit.

"I don't know how to explain it but I feel a huge amount of power running through my veins." Jellal said clenching his fist. "I'll defeat the man in front of me." Jellal said taking a stance to fight Midnight. "You really think you can beat me? You were in a coma from too much etherion entering your body at once. You have no chance at beating me." Midnight said almost laughing.

"I'll show you that I can beat you." Jellal said activating Meteor as if on instinct surprising Erza. Jellal dashed past Midnight who didn't move with confidence that he would win this fight. Jellal turned around and shot forward and grabbed Midnight's head and dragged him across the walls of the ancient city. Jellal than let go of Midnight and kicked him through one of the small homes.

Jellal flew over the homes and found Midnight standing back up on one of the roads of the other side. Jellal shot downwards and went to punch Midnight who jumped back avoiding the punch who destroyed part of the ground. Jellal turned off Meteor and raised his hands and released the same energy attacks he used on Ichigo and Natsu.

The attack went past Midnight even though it was going straight for him. Jellal jumped into the air and charged a bigger one and released it on top of Midnight. When the smoke cleared Jellal was shocked by what he saw, there was a crater around Midnight but not a scratch on Midnight himself. 'What the hell!? My attacks earlier were able to hit him, why can't they now?' Jellal thought to himself.

Midnight chuckled a bit then looked at Jellal and his clothes started to twist around his body suffocating him. Jellal fell to the ground and didn't know what to do then Midnight dodged a sword aimed at his head. Jellal could feel his clothes going to back to the way they were before choking him. Jellal and Midnight looked at the direction of where the sword came from and Erza shot out with swords in both her hands.

She swung both swords at Midnight but they didn't hit him even though he didn't move. Erza's armor than started to twist and distort trying to suffocate her. Jellal shot forward with Meteor and punched Midnight in the gut hard enough that it sent back a good distance. Erza switched her armor into her Heaven's Wheel Armor.

"I see now. That's the nature of your magic." Erza said confusing Jellal. "Indeed my magic Reflector... Has the power to twist and distort anything." Midnight replied smirking. "It can reflect incoming magic and even create illusions." Midnight said holding his hands out taunting the two to attack him. "That's some powerful magic." Jellal said taking a stance next to Erza.

The two charged Midnight who's smirk increased in size. "Your magic can't touch me remember?" Midnight said as Erza summoned her swords and sent them flying at Midnight. Midnight stood still and reflected the swords back at Erza who parried each sword. Than Midnight raised his hand and broke Erza's armor and twisted the remaining armor around her body.

"More I want to see more agony on your face." Midnight said making Erza's armor twist even more causing her to let out a scream than Jellal appeared above Midnight again and released a small energy blast at midnight but this time instead of letting the magic reflect around him Midnight jumped out of the way. "Spiral Pain!" Midnight said as a vortex of air appeared around Erza.

When the attack finished Erza's armor was completely destroyed and she fell to the ground. "ERZA!" Jellal yelled than activated meteor and shot at Midnight. "I'll make you pay you bastard." Jellal said as he went around Midnight and kicked him sending him flying then he flew next to him and elbowed him to the ground.

Jellal picked up Midnight by his shirt with anger in his eyes. Jellal punched Midnight in the face sending to the ground. Jellal was going to keep attacking when his clothes started to twist and distort again making him immobile. "Now stay there like a good dog." Midnight said making Jellal's clothes to tighten around him. "It seems like you'll have to entertain me till we reach Cait Shelter, Jellal." Midnight said confusing Jellal

"Why...Cait...Shelter?" Jellal was barely able to get the words out of his mouth. Midnight smiled at Jellal. Midnight walked a good distance away from both Erza and Jellal so that the two of them could hear before he told them anything. "Nirvana was created many years ago by a race that wanted to put an end to war, the Nirvit." Midnight started.

"However Nirvana turned out to be far more dangerous than they had imagined. As such they sealed away the very magic they created with their own hands. The Nirvit feared the uses that Nirvana could be used for, so they watched over it for centuries. Cait Shelter, a guild made up of the descendants of the Nirvit. They possess the power to seal it once more and we can't let them seal this glorious power once more." Midnight said gesturing around the ancient city.

"With this power we'll make Cait Shelter kill each other with the power of Nirvana. Isn't that just thrilling?" Midnight said laughing at the end. "So you're going to attack Wendy's guild?" Erza said from behind them, she was trying to stand from the crater left from the attack from earlier. "So you can still stand Erza? You're as impressive as the rumors say you are." Midnight said turning around to face her.

"You're worth destroying." Midnight said looking at Erza with an expression of excitement on his face. "I'll put a stop to your worthless plans." Was all Erza said before she requipped into one of her armors.

With Ichigo

Ichigo was fighting Antonio in his bankai, after activating his bankai Ichigo knocked out Erika after starting this fight. Antonio was losing this fight now that Ichigo was in his bankai. Antonio was bleeding from cuts from his chest, back and face. "You should stop fighting, you'll lose if you keep fighting me without your resurreccion." Ichigo said forcing Antonio back without much effort.

"I'm not going to show you my resurreccion, you're not worry enough for me to show you it." Antonio said charging a green cero in his hand. Ichigo reached out with his left hand stood still as the attack was released. Ichigo grabbed the cero and had it disperse around him destroying whatever was left of the area. Ichigo flash stepped in front of Antonio and went to slash him horizontally.

Antonio blocked the attack with his zanpakuto but the force sent him flying to the edge of the their battle ground. Ichigo started walking to Antonio. Antonio didn't know what to do at the moment. 'I could release my zanpakuto. NO he's not worthy to see it. I have to retreat for the time being but I need a good distraction to get away.' Antonio thought to himself looking for an answer to retreat.

The answer came to him in the shape of Erika as she sonidoed out of nowhere and started to swing at Ichigo holding him at bay for the moment. Antonio took the opportunity and slide one of his fingers across one of the cuts on his chest and started charging a cero in that hand. Ichigo saw the green glow thanks to the dark the night provided.

Ichigo kicked Erika in the gut to distance himself from her and started charging his own attack. "Gran Rey Cero" Antonio said as he released the attack at Ichigo. Ichigo didn't want to destroy anymore of the forest than he already did so he had an idea. Ichigo coated Tensa Zangetsu with a getsuga and stood his ground. When the Gran Rey Cero was within striking distance he swung upwards.

Ichigo kept pouring energy into the coated getsuga and kept forcing it to go upwards. When he felt he had enough power Ichigo let it go. "Getsuga Tensho" Ichigo said as the coated getsuga shot outwards and the power behind it forced the Gran Rey to go upwards with the getsuga close behind it. Ichigo was glad to see that the he hit what he wanted one of the legs of Nirvana.

The two attacks collided with one of Nirvana's legs forcing it to stop moving for a moment. "Looks like your idea worked King, color me impressed." Zangetsu said with a mocking tone. "Ichigo the energy Nirvana was giving off earlier is no longer spread out like it was before. It's now focused within Nirvana itself." Tensa told Ichigo who knew what he might and sensed around for the arrancar he was just fighting, they were long gone.

"You know King I'm truly impressed that you were able to guide that Gran Rey to hit one of the legs. I honestly thought you were going to miss and destroy more of the forest, especially from this distance." Zangetsu said. Ichigo ignored the comment and decided to sense around to see where everyone was at. "It seems that they're mostly on Nirvana." Tensa told Ichigo.

"Then That's where we're going right now." Ichigo said as he jumped into the air and dashed across the sky to get to Nirvana. "Everybody needs my help, I hope I'm not too late." Ichigo said out loud as he increased his speed to get there faster.

AN: That's the chapter, what did you guys did of the fights in this chapter? What did you guys think of Jellal fighting in this chapter? i feel like many people were thinking that I would stick to the to the canon. Now you know the name of the traitor that Grimmjow and Nelliel are looking for, Caiman also means alligator in Spanish. For those of you wondering why I didn't have Ichigo go into his bankai from the start, two reasons. 1. Since Ichigo got his powers back in the fullbringer arc, in the beginning of the last arc he didn't go into his bankai in his fight with the quincy guy who's name escapes me but his letter was J the Jailer. And the 2. reason is the fight wouldn't have been as good.

Now the thing with the chapter that comes after the next one well be the start of the next arc. To be more accurate whenever the arc comes out it'll be my own arc, not the edolas arc. I'll briefly mention it but I won't do the whole arc. So to recap about the next arc I WON'T be the edolas arc. That was all.

What will happened with Jellal's and Erza's fight? Who will Ichigo run into first on Nirvana? What powers does Ichigo still have up his sleeves? Stick around and support the story to see what happens next.
