Kazui was slashing his sword to Block the snake's strikes with her spear! he wasn't using his Tenshou as he want to save power! and let the girls recover! the snake lady then jumped back and held her wing out! using the life force within it to animate a suit of golden samurai armor with a golden gem covered sword! the armor charged in beside her! now gold isn't strong but now Kazui had to block two strikes form two enemies.

this snake's whole plan was about wearing them out and the girls need recovery time! that is when he saw it! the samurai got past him and went to strike them! Safa summoned her shield in a semi-solid state it wasn't complete but it was enough to shatter a golden sword and punch a massive dent in the chest plate!

cheeah got up too her fullbring in complete shape! but the fire around her clay more was smaller! the flame was like a power meter! it told her how much spirit power she had to use for attacks and bringer light! not much so she just slashed the armor! as the naga hissed and spoke up, "Oh look they keep coming back up! I swear you cats are worst then cockroaches! can't get rid of you!" She charged forward with her energy spear Only For Kazui to hold it back! as Cheeah went in for a slash on the snake's under belly making her hiss!

the snake was then uppercutted by the Weakened Safa making her hit the roof, "We are still drained form the best of three! and you try to drain us more to win! you coward!" She declared as Kazui saw an opening and slashed the air calling out, "GETSUGA TENSHOU!" his attack fired off! the air blade cutting the room at an angle so the roof slid off and hit the ground but the naga had fall to her stomach so the cut missed her.

the naga smiled as Kazui's bankai and hollow state ended and she smiled, "Now I stand before three weak kittens!" she said charging in for a spear strike! Only for all three to unite their weapons Cheeah's fullbring sword, Kazui's zanpukto, and Safa's shield to block it! as all three called out, "CERO SINCRETICO!"

Kazui's spirit part of this Cero was red, Spiraling with his sisters Green and Safa's black! the triple spiral Cero was small about water melon sized and was probably on the lower end of a Gillian cero! but it fired off point Blank on the snake! as the bringer's powers failed and Kazui's sword blade cracked in half form the strain! The cero fired forward hitting the snake who screamed in rage as it went through the middle of her stomach! she fell over She would have died if not for her ring!

her ring glow and used it's powers to generate a new lower body by reviving her as she laid dying! she got up panting the Ring was out of power! for the moment but sense the air was open she was sucking it out of the air form passing normal flying animals , trees even falling leaves and bugs where on her drain list as she held it out energy filling it, in the pink color as she stated, "Ok ok! that was epic! and smart put the last of your powers together to end me! but it's no use!" she summoned back her energy spear, "I can end you now that your unarmed and powerless!" the three cats panted but Kazui held out his broken sword out to continued.

the naga laughed, "Well he is brave but That broken sword won't be any good to you Kitten! it's over over! you can't win now!" she then heard clapping and turned to see Ichigo standing with his Bankai in hand as he clapped and she gasped, "the roof fell off, the cero... it was a beacon for help! they just need to last long enough for you to show up!" no sooner did she finish was her arm the one that held the ring slashed off and she held it screaming as Ichigo grabbed the arm and held it out to Cheeah.

the cheetah girl took the ring and used the power inside to repair her brother's shikai " yes but Sense you are no threat any more you are the second one to live! after the hyena who set us on this quest! So slither away with your life Lady!" the naga hissed as she crawled down her ruined tower the Little lady was right she lost her ring she stood no chance against Ichigo So she left the tiger, Lion, Cheeah and Liger! she lost her ring and her arm but she still had her life so best to stop while she was ahead slash didn't lose everything!

As always Orihime would reject the ring when she saw it! leaving just two rings left! the quest was coming to it's end! Ten rings down the final two remain! It's almost over people!

knowing this was the second to last ring holder! an anthro zebra woman, with dread locks, in a brown leather bikini top and lioncloth bandages around her arms and legs, golden wrings around her neck, wrist and ankles, she held a spear and her ring on her left hand! she was in the darkest most save jungle! she walked around, "the snake as died I am next! Well bring it on kats!" she said walking around using her ring to animate the trees giving them demonic distorted faces and their branches all became arms, "the jungle is my weapon!" she declared to turn her jungle home into a jungle of living monster plants ready to slaughter them! Will her plan to crush them with numbers really work? after all plants where already alive so orihime's rejection probably won't return them to normal just unmake them with takes longer! with numbers they could challenge them!
