A cold shiver than ran down Keigo's spine as he suddenly felt a foreboding spiritual power overwhelming his senses before realizing, to his horror, that it belonged to the 5th Espada Grimmjow.

'Hehe, so my former superior has finally released it. Oh, how I cannot wait to gain that form myself one day and crush you, Quincy, and humans even further!' Grandfisher boasted from the other side of the battlefield.

Which only caused Keigo to smirk. 'If you are already going full out on me. I doubt that even if you had a second release, it still wouldn't be enough to beat me!'

From the overview of the battle. Both fighters looked even. While injured and covered in scrapes, bruises, cuts, and the right sleeve of his uniform, Keigo was torn, revealing his muscular arm. He was still in fighting condition. In contrast, Grandfisher took on his resurrection's much more significant form. This turned him into a massive behemoth giant with huge tusks on his shoulders; his entire body was fused to his brown fur coat and right hand. He wielded an enormous zanpaktou that stretched over twenty feet in length.

Yet despite his impressive state, he sported several wounds on his body. Though nowhere near as much as the ones he inflicted on Keigo, and unlike him, he was not out of breath.

'I will admit, human; you are far more powerful than I you give credit for. But in the end, it is no different than complementing the strength of the world's largest insect.'

Keigo then narrowed his eyes.

'You have forced me to use my resurrection, a grand feat worthy of praise alone. But that is the limit of your meager human power. All your attacks have done nothing more than annoy me. While all I need is one more blow to end you instantly!'

Grandfisher then readied his blade to attack Keigo.

'If you beg for mercy, I might make your last moments enjoyable before ending your miserable life!

The full bringer then looked down at himself and sighed. 'Yeah...I guess you are right; maybe this is all I can accomplish not just as a human but as a being in general Keigo then stared down at Grandfisher with determination. 'If this is, it was still holding back!'

Keigo then used full bringer flash to get behind Grandfisher's neck, and Espada, surprised by the sudden speed, raised his hand to block it. Only to widen further in surprise when the bones in his hand shattered—completely bypassing Hierro's defense.

The Arrancar then yelps in pain. Before trying to swap Keigo with his other arm. Only for Keigo to flip himself over it and then kick at its wrist. Which caused the front bones also to break.

Grandfisher once which in pain before using Sonido to speed away from Keigo.

'What is that!?' he screamed to himself in his head.

'I always assume that his fullbringer was similar to bambettia's, causing or turning things into explosions when he makes physical contact with his fists!'

Grandfisher then looked at the crushed pieces of bone on their right fist and the ones on his left. 'But this...this more than mere explosions. It's as if my very bones the strength of their foundation!'

The Espada then eyed Keigo with concern, though he may never admit it for fear.

'What wrong?' Keigo asked mockingly to the Arrancar. 'Didn't you say my attacks just annoy you or how my meager human power cannot overcome yours!?' He laughed lightly at the Arrancar.

Which was then instantly replaced with a scowl so menacing that it caused Grandfisher to flinch. 'Don't fucking kid yourself.

Keigo wrapped his arms around his shoulders and stared down lowly at his once superior foe. 'There are plenty of humans like me whose meager power can easily outperform yours, and in comparison, I am just cannon folder, and that not is getting to the directors and the chair-women of my squadron.'

The giant Espada then growled in frustration at being insulted.

'But considering that Ms. Bambettia is going to get in trouble. I might as well stop playing it safe and end this battle here and now,' Keigo declared as he began to spike up his spiritual power while Grandfisher laughed at him in full-on arrogance.

'End it now, END IT NOW!? Grandfisher screams in utter hatred and defiance. 'YOU ARE A LITTLE HUMAN WHEN I AM THE 10TH ESPADA!'

Granfisher then raised his sword above his head. While also increasing his spiritual power to its peak. As it manifested in an enormous visible red aura of spiritual pressure. That shook the entire building around him to the point that the structure was nearly collapsing in on itself by the sheer density of the aura alone.

'YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A LOWLY INSECT, AND YOU WILL BE CRUSHED AS AN INSECT!' Grand fisher shouted out before swinging down his blade, hoping to split the arrogant human in half.

But Keigo let out a slight smirk before readying himself to unleash the full power of his fullbring.

'His power is at his peak, and he left himself wide open. All I need to do is the time it right, and it is over...' Asano mused while preparing his left fist and as he channeled his spiritual energies into it. A golden crest symbol appeared on top of the fingerless glove that covered his hand.

However, before the blow could be stuck, the Espada was immediately blindsided by a kick to the left side of his face and hit him with such force that it dislocated his jaw and sent flying several walls of the building. Much to both Keigo's and Grandfisher's shock.

The Fullbringer then turns to face the one who delivered the kick. Whose foot was covered in glowing veins pump with reishi the result of using blut?

'Sup thought you needed some help there!' Ichigo called out to Keigo. Who then eyed Ichigo suspiciously, which caused the soul reaper to sweatdrop in nervousness and reluctantly cased Ichigo to ready himself for an attack.

'I may not be all that good with a bow, but I have a natural talent for this blunt vein thing. At first, I was only able to activate it by instinct. But after a bit of training in the royal palace and after the war. I can now I can activate it by will. Luckily for me, it was enough to destroy that fish bastard's jaw,' Ichigo thought as they stared at Keigo's seemingly wary look.

'Though admittedly, I used it in hopes it would fool Keigo enough not to suspect anything. He is at least somewhat of an idiot as my world's version of him...but then again, a different world, different people.'

Ichigo immediately jumped back when Keigo quickly walked up and placed his right hand on his left shoulder.

'Ichigo...' the fullbringer spoke, and the soul reaper immediately readied himself for the worse.

'Just...WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU WERE CHANGING YOUR STYLE!' Keigo shouted and whined at Kurosaki, who then shared an expression of utter bafflement.

'I mean, it had just told me you were exchanging bows for fist cuffs. I wouldn't be on your back so much. Is that why your archery sucks because you have focused on one thing you forgot the other?' Keigo continued to complain in top fashion with tears in his eyes. At the same time, Ichigo could only chuckle uneasily in relief.

'So, it would seem even in a multiverse of infinite possibilities. Keigo is still Keigo...thank god.'

"Uh yeah, I wanted to try something new and began training with my blunt vein a bit more' Ichigo played along while studying his arm.

'I can tell, man Ichigo. I don't think I have ever seen your blunt vein this refine before. Most of the time, you specialize in blut arteries and shoot from a distance. So, this is a nice change of pace,' Keigo proclaims cheerfully, only for his smile to drop immediately.

'However, you are needed elsewhere.

Ichigo nearly tripped himself at the sudden change in Keigo's voice. 'Do you want to finish him off by yourself?' He asked, but the brunette just sighed.

'It's not just that Kurosaki, but rather something much more important... Bambietta is on her last legs' Keigo then looked towards the distance that led to the direction of where the sternrriter and the 5th Esapda's fight took place, and Ichigo himself could also sense it too before he even arrived to aid his friend.

But what was so disturbing to Ichigo was how familiar the Espada's spiritual pressure was and then immediately recalled his fight with Ulquiorra...and then his eye alighted in horror as the realization suddenly hit him.

'I don't know how Grimjow got this power of his. But whatever it was, it gave him enough of a boast to overwhelm Ms. Bamabettia, and she is among the most powerful sternritters. If she dies, it won't work just Karakara who would suffer but the entirety of the soul society itself,' Keigo said solemnly. He stared through the walls where his enemy crashed through, but there was no sign of his body.

"I don't think I need to say anymore to convince you to go.'

Ichigo then stared at Keigo before nodding and using Hirenkyaku to move away from the battlefield instantly. Which then caused Keigo to smile.

'It was foolish to make him leave by himself, boy. Had you allowed him to help you. Your death could have been avoided' a low growly voice echoed from where Grandfisher landed.

'And if he did, Ms. Bamabettia's would have ended up dead, and for the record, despite you being an Espada, you are still just the lowest rank among them. You are just small fry' Keigo dismissed his opponent with bemusement compared to your former boss and her. While the Tenth Espada merely laughed.

'Perhaps...but what if you Keigo hmm...you who were incapable of saving anyone. When were you but a small, scared, frighted child? When you were utterly powerless to defend yourself, your friends...' Grandfisher spoke out as he suddenly stepped out of the shadows. He was revealing himself with a far more petite figure that took the appearance of a young woman with brown hair like Keigo's and shared a face similar to his own.

The Espada then laughed again some more. Only this time, his voice transformed from a brutish male to a light tone of a female.

'...Or even your sister,' Grandfisher mocked as his fiendish female face then gave a twisted, sadistic grin at Keigo. That made his heart fill up with grim determination, hatred...and shame.
