30 miles east of the Land of Rivers Land of Wind border.
Renji and Temari fight each other while in the middle of a forest filled with hills and plateaus. Renji clash his two handed sword against Temari using one hand on her sealed fan. Renji dodges a swinging smash which is followed by a rising slash from the fan. He manages to block the attack aimed at him. Temari manages to slam Renji onto a wall and pin him down with one hand on her fan while Renji is using two hands to guard the strike with his sword.
"You're hardly worth writing home about, then again you're up against a Jōunin . By the way what is your name?" Temari stated with arrogance.
"Lieutenant of the 6th Division in the Gotei 13 Renji Abarai." Renji replied.
"Very well , i'll just have to capture you and make you tell me where is this Gotei 13 is at." Temari stated with arrogance.
"Don't get full of yourself! I've only getting started!" Renji replied as he uses his blade to push Temari back 10 feet.
"Huh?" Temari stated with shock.
"Howl Zabimaru (蛇尾丸, Snake Tail) " Renji shouted as he transforms his sword into an even longer 6-part segmented blade he uses to push back Temari 100 feet into a large 30 foot rock.
"Damn it, his attacks have gotten stronger!" Temari stated to herself.
"Don't underestimate us. Death gods of Lieutenant rank or higher have the strength and power to level skyscrapers . We usually wear limiters to conceal our power in the human world in our dimension by 5 times, however for you Shinobi we are fighting at full strength, don't drop your guard for a second." Renji explained to Temari as Temari emerges out of the rock unharmed.
"Is that all you have to your power?" Temari asked while holding her fan like a cane revealing one star."Saisho no tsuki Kyodai Sensu (最初の月最初の月 First Moon:Giant Folding Fan)"
"Impossible, not even a starch ! Her weapon transformed, just like a Zanpakutō." Renji said to himself.
"You need to do alot better to get me kid!" Temari stated .
"I'm just getting started!" Renji replied as he swings his sword towards Temari. Temari blocks with two hands.
"Ha! You got to do better than that!" Temari laughed .
"That's not all! What's wrong? Did you think you can take me lightly?" Renji asked mocking her as he goes for whip strike moving at a fast arc but she blocks with both hands.
"Damn it!" Temari shouted.
"Now for the final blow!" Renji shouted as he moves his sword up 100 feet high surrounded by spiritual energy.
"Shit ,oh no ... just kidding!" Temari replied as she uses one hand on her fan to easily overpower his whip goes around the fan as Temari effortlessly holds it back with just her hand up high. The she cuts Renji across the chest just behind 30 feet from her.
"Damn just the pressure wave of her Reiatsu was enough to cut me." Renji stated to himself as he swings his Shikai at Temari with his strength to hit her .
"You got to do better than that!" Temari shouted.
"I'm sorry but you need to get outta my way , i need to save Rukia." Renji stated to Temari who blocked his attack with a weak one hand sword guard with ease with only a small starch on her face. Renji swings his Shikai up in the air and lunges towards Temari who is 50 feet away on the same spot.
"Is that your best shot?" Temari stated as she uses Shunshin to move at 4400 ft/sec (3,000 MPH) while only moving 5 inches from the attack. Renji then guides the whip like blade 50 feet high and then comes crashing towards blocks the attack once again with only one hand.
"What's this ? Looks like you have a few tricks up your sleeve." Temari smiled as she blocks the first whip blade attack and easily avoids the other two attacks.
"Bitch i'm only getting started!" Renji replied as he spins around his Shikai vertically creating a rotation spin attack then hits the blade into the ground. The attacks then form a 50 foot long cage around Temari.
"You're not getting away!" Renji stated as he closes his Shikai together having them spin around and creating a 360 degree rope like formation that spins around but Temari stands in the same then uses her fan to generate a blast of wind that shatters Renji's shikai into 6 segments.
"Damn , she shattered my Shikai with ease!" Renji stated.
"Your attacks are seriously too slow! I didn't even need to move an inch from were you pushed me." Temari replied.
"Damn you blocked all my attacks while barely moving an inch." Renji stated .
"I was testing to see how strong you were, but.. you're barely a warm up against my 1 star." Temari replied.
"1 star?" Renji asked.
"My fan has 3 stars, this is the first star. Each star makes me 5 times stronger. When you see three stars, you're going to die." Temari stated.
"Don't underestimate me! Higa Zekkō (狒牙絶咬, Baboon Fang Bite)" Renji stated as he uses his Shikai fragments to levitate them in the air and the all go flying towards Temari. Temari uses her Wind Chakra to effortlessly blow them away.
"What, she blew them away so easily!" Renji said to himself but before he can react Temari uses a dashing strike cutting his shoulder.
"You're going to tell me we're Gaara is at!" Temari shouted.
"Get Real!" Renji replied but his sword reverts back to normal.
"Looks like he's out of gas!" Temari said to herself.
"Damn it , i can't use my Shikai. Higa Zekkō is damaging to Zabimaru , i can't use my Shikai for 15 minutes and i certainly can't use Bankai for 30 minutes." Renji stated to himself.
"Out of power already? You're at your limit. With your Shikai shattered, you can't even starch me . A mere weak Lieutenant doesn't have a Bankai." Temari stated.
"How do you know about Shikai ? " Renji stated.
"I asked Kankurō, my younger brother. He fought a silver haired boy who called himself a Captain and an orange haired woman who called herself a Lieutenant. He told me the power gap between you Lieutenants and Captains, the power gap between a Captain and Lieutenant is similar to the power gap between the Jōunin and the Tokubetsu Jōunin, a power gap of 5 to 10 times. You're finished ! Even if you were fighting at full power, a mere Shikai is barely enough to even starch an Jōunin." Temari stated as she shows her small starch on her check "Now talk and tell me where Gaara is at!" Temari demanded.
"Judging by your tone, i'm guessing you are here to avenge your brothers." Renji stated.
"Of course, only an idiot wouldn't think of that, why else would i choose to go after you guys ? Now i will kill you as a act of vengeance as well as that silver haired brat who harmed my brothers." Temari shouted.
"Shit, i'm in trouble. I need to save Rukia and get as far away from her as possible , however she just isn't going to let me pass by without a fight." Renji stated to himself.
"If you're not going to do anything i will!" Temari stated as she leaps into the air and smashes the ground. Renji barely dodges the attack.
"You think i became a Lieutenant just because of my Shikai ? I also have Kidō. Bakudō # 4. Hainawa (這縄, Crawling Rope) " Renji chanted as crackling yellow energy rope within his hand releases toward Temari. The energy entangles Temari's arms arms and body immobilizing Her briefly " Renji then appears 5 feet in front of her. "Hadō #31. Shakkahō (赤火砲, Red Fire Cannon) " Renji chanted as the Kidō spell explodes doing light burn damage to himself and blinding Temari. Renji runs away from her.
"Get back here coward!" Temari shouted as Temari breaks out of the Kidō with ease and sustained no injuries or even burns from the Kidō blast.
"That should hold her back awhile while i make a clean escape. It's still too dangerous for me to use Kidō, i still suck at it." Renji stated to himself.
"Does he think he can escape ? It's too late for him, i'll just have to torture him until he tells me where Gaara is at." Temari stated to herself.
10 miles north of the Former Akatsuki Hideout
Neji and Tenten as well as Pakkun arrive at the scene where they see complete and utter destruction. The center of the forest where the 500 foot hill was at was completely leveled from Hitsugaya's high level sword attack while in Bankai. 4,000 feet from both the left and right side of the hill ,there are two large craters . The flames from the craters were frozen solid by the freezing power of Hyōten Hyakkasō, north of the hill lies a massive crater created by Kamui. Everything within a mile radius is frozen. Lightning clouds and discharge continues as well as the blizzard.
"What a battle , the ice is so cold that it froze even the flames." Tenten stated as the solid flames.
"The forest in this area was wiped out, this was the outcome of two Jōunin fighting with no restraints on power I have never seen flames frozen like this. These Captain class Shinigami are incredibly strong to push someone like Kakashi and Gai to their maximum limits." Neji explained to Tenten.
"This place is freezing cold!" Tenten stated.
"It's a good thing we stood away until the battle is over." Pakkun stated.
"Kakashi's Chakra has dropped drastically , he's barely holding on at this point." Neji stated.
"I still have some medical supplies. I was able to hold out despite my serious injuries form that Shinigami." Tenten stated.
"Tenten, stop the bleeding as much as you can then give him a Hyōrōgan , his injuries aren't quite as bad as Gai's but more seriously injured than lee and you. We will find Sakura and Naruto and get them to Sunakagure." Neji commanded.
"Right!" Tenten replied as she goes to help Kakashi.
Tenten goes to see Kakashi lying down on the floor with his entire shirt was burned off and iron gloves virtually nonexistent, his pants are torn and burned reducing them to torn pants and his shoes are gone. His mask is nearly destroyed. His body is covered with wounds, including several mildly deep slashes on his back and a light cut across the chest. His right arm, left shoulder and left leg have deep cuts cutting into the bone and his hands have second degree electrical and frost burns. Tenten goes to remove his mask but Kakashi grabs her arms and stops her.
"Don't touch the mask!" Kakashi stated as he puts on another face mask in his pocket, he then passes out.
"Time to get to work on him , i'm no Shizune or Sakura but it should at least help him out." Tenten stated as she prepares to fix him.
"Hey ,Tenten. Heal that kid over there too!" Kakashi stated pointing at Hitsugaya.
"He's the enemy Kakashi!" Neji stated.
"Exactly, he's a high ranked member of the organization and the one who has kidnapped Gaara. We need him alive to gain Intel otherwise we will never find Gaara and all our efforts would be meaningless." Kakashi explained to the team.
"What if he tries to attack us?" Pakkun stated.
"Not a problem ! He can't attack us ! Take away his sword and he won't be a problem." Kakashi replied as he points at the severed right arm with his sealed Zanpakutō still in his hand .
"Why not destroy it?" Neji asked
"We need it as research material!" Kakashi replied.
100 miles north of the Former Akatsuki Hideout
Byakuya is putting on bandages and dressing his wounds as he talks on the phone.
"Yes is Captain Commander Yamamoto there?" Byakuya asked.
"Yes Captain Kuchiki what do you want?" Yamamoto asked.
"I caught the Bjuu!" Byakuya replied.
"Excellent job . However this changes everything. The Invasion of Sunagakure has been canceled." Yamamoto stated.
"There's a problem however, Rukia Kuichi is fatally wounded and i took some injuries myself, Captain Hitsugaya is presumably dead or defeated and i can't contact any of the Lieutenants or Zaraki's squad." Byakuya replied.
"We have reinforcements coming by. As soon as you fix yourself up, head back to the Soul Society with the Kyuubi as for Squad 11, they have been wiped out by the shinobi." Yamamoto stated.
"I see, these Shinobi were far tougher than i thought. These Shinobi were formidable, nonetheless the Lieutenants need to be saved." Byakuya replied.
"Very well Byakuya , Captain Kurotsuchi and Captain Komamura would successfully get the Lieutenants out of Danger. Your job is to get Hitsugaya and Rukia back safely, you are currently the closest to them and the only able-bodied person left. Get them out of harms way and return to the Soul Society with them." Yamamoto commanded.
"Okay!" Byakuya replied as he stitches himself up after hanging up the phone.
10 miles from Sunakagure
Rangiku and Izuru are surrounded by Chiyo and the border patrol squad .
"Looks like we came across the ones who kidnapped Gaara and poisoned Kankurō, you fit the description well in Kankurō's reports." Chiyo stated.
"So that's the bitch who Kidnapped Gaara?" Matsuri stated with fury.
"No she's just the Lieutenant of that Captain who kidnapped him, all we need to do is capture her and get Intel from her about her Captain and where they are holding them." Chiyo replied.
"You think we would go down without a fight?" Izuru stated.
"It's best you move out the way and let us get access to the Kyuubi." Rangiku stated.
"The Kyuubi isn't here!" Chiyo replied.
"Don't lie to us, we detect Bijuu energy nearby." Izuru stated.
"It seems you young punks want to fight!" Chiyo stated.
"I'm always ready for a fight , bring it on you old hag." Rangiku stated as she takes out her sword and goes after Chiyo.
"Hag ? You're going to pay for calling me old you bitch." Chiyo replied as she charges at Rangiku.
"Looks like i'll have to join the fray too!" Izuru stated as he pulls out his sword but before he can move his blade is wrapped around with a rope that is holding back his sealed sword the his arm is stung by a drat that paralyzes his body " I can't move ! " Izuru stated.
"My Jōhyō (縄鏢Rope Dart) is designed to capture enemies and the dart attach to them contains an anaesthetic. Once the anesthetic enters the bloodstream, it renders the opponent unable to attack, you must be strong if you're still able to stand." Matsuri replied.
"Izuru!" Rangiku shouted as she comes to save Izuru but 10 Chūnins come at her to attack her. Rangiku takes one of them out with a simple sword slash. The other two with a roundhouse kick, 4 of them with a flying kick and 3 of them with a Horizontal then comes and clashes with her sword with her kunai. She then comes at Rangiku with a series of punches and kicks Rangiku blocks with her left forearm
"Damn, she's tough . I could barely follow her movements and her kicks are hurting my arm." Rangiku said to herself as she barely dodges a palm strike aimed at her chest. Rangiku goes for her sword and goes for a two-handed sword strike but Chiyo blocks the attack with her fishing rod.
"Come on, you can do better than that!" Chiyo stated.
"You're very arrogant trying to fight me with just a fishing rod, get off your high horse ,hag!" Rangiku stated as she tries to overpower Chiyo with a two-handed sword strike but Chiyo backhands her and then uses the fishing rod to hook onto her scarf and throws her 50 feet way.
"Damn her!" Rangiku shouted. Chiyo comes at Rangiku with a flying kick but Rangiku manages to punch her in the stomach with an uppercut pushing her back and jumps to do a spinning heel kick knocking Chiyo to the ground.
"You put up quite a good fight young whippersnapper." Chiyo stated.
"Like i would lose to an old shank like you!" Rangiku replied as she comes at Chiyo with a sword slash but Chiyo catches her sword with her right hand. Chiyo goes to kick her but Rangiku counters with her attack.
"Hakuda # 2. Kyōseiteki Nipāmu (強制的にパームForce Palm) " Rangiku chanted as she creates a short-range shockwave from the palm of her hands . Chiyo dodges the attack and prepares to counterattack.
"Sōshūjin (操襲刃 Manipulating Attack Blades)" Chiyo stated as she summons 100 flying kunai being held in the air with her Chakra. They all come flying at Rangiku. Rangiku uses Shunpo to dodge the blades but the blades go back to her from behind . Rangiku then sees the blades surrounding her in all directions "There's no escaping now!" Chiyo stated as the blades come towards Rangiku.
"Growl Haineko (灰猫, Ash Cat )" Rangiku chanted as she creates a cloud of ash around her to block the kunai with ease "Is that all you got old hag?" Rangiku asked.
"You bitch!" Chiyo replied as she uses her fishing rod on Rangiku but Rangiku shreds the fishing rod with ease.
"An old hag like you can't beat me with such a worn out body, goodbye." Rangiku stated as she surrounds her with ash .She lightly moves the hilt cutting Chiyo's wrist.
"My wrist!" Chiyo stated.
"My Haineko's true ability is to turn into ash and allow me to attack whatever inside it with a single swing of the hilt. You could consider all that ash surrounding you to be my sword." Rangiku explained to the elder Shinobi.
"Not bad, but it's not nearly enough to kill me! Haha Chichi (母と父 Mother and Father)" Chiyo stated as she summons a male puppet with shaggy red hair wielding a segmented wooden whip covered with kunai and a woman with brown hair and brown eyes wielding a serrated katana.
"What are those?" Rangiku asked herself.
"Soen: Swin no Tai ( 装苑 Puppet Performance: Two as One)" Chiyo chanted as she has the puppets spin around and cut up the ash cloud.
"She blew away my Haineko with ease!" Rangiku stated to herself.
"That woman, she reminds me of that Slug princess Tsunade. Even those damned 106 cm boobs remind me of her , however this woman pales in comparison to Tsunade's power." Chiyo said to herself as she dashes towards Rangiku with her blade.
"Damn it!" Rangiku stated as she uses her ash cloud to block the mother puppet strikes but the father puppet comes at her with the whip like blade comes at her with a strike. Rangiku blocks with her left wrist which is cut by one of the kunai segments. Chiyo appears behind her with Shunshin moving at 2,933.3 ft/sec (2 ,000 MPH) and kicks her down into the slides across the ground 20 feet uplifting the sand 10 feet high in the air. Rangiku gets back up.
"Rangiku!" Izuru stated as he struggles to get out of the Jōhyō. Izuru releases his Reiatsu and surrounds himself with a blue Reiatsu. He manages to overpower the Jōhyō and Matsuri falls to her knees barely able to move.
10 miles north of the Former Akatsuki Hideout
Neji picks up Hitsugaya's Zanpakutō and holds it in his hand.
"This Chakra flow is rejecting my power. It's seems these blades aren't like the weapons the Shitenshōnin (四天象人,Four Celestials) use, instead of amplifying Chakra, it taps into the depths of their powers. These blades are concentrated forms of the inner other words nobody but the user can activate this weapon." Neji stated as Tenten finishes patching up Hitsugaya and Kakashi. Hitsugaya's arm is placed into an ice cooler where it's sealed in a summoning scroll.
"Alright , all finished . Neji may i get a look of that sword?" Tenten asked.
"Go right ahead, not like you can do anything special with it." Neji replied as he give her the sword.
"This is a finely made guard is the shape of a four-pointed bronze-colored star. Its hilt is light blue and the sheath is dark is such a beautifully crafted sword. This is going in my sword collection." Tenten explained to Neji as she takes the sword and puts it behind her back.
"Neji where's Sakura?" Kakashi asked her.
"I don't know , i can't seem to detect her within my Byakugan , it only has the range of 10 miles." Neji answered .
"I sense her, she's 30 miles south of here . I smell alot of blood in that area too , it's as if the battlefield is drenched with blood." Pakkun stated.
"Sakura must be in danger!" Kakashi said with shock as he eats a Hyōrōgan but it barely helps him get up and he falls back down. Neji picks him up.
"Damn it , Kakashi your body has taken too much of a beating to move around." Neji stated.
"Even the food pills aren't working out well!" Tenten replied as she carries Hitsugaya.
"Pakkun take us to Sakura immediately!" Kakashi stated as he is carried by Neji and Tenten carries Hitsugaya away.
40 miles east of the Land of Rivers Land of Wind border.
Renji has been running from Temari for a while.
"Shit, i'm lost ! Without the Denreishinki, i'm lost in this world and can't find Rukia . Oh well at least i lost the bitch." Renji stated to himself hiding behind the trees. Temari lands on a 200 foot high tree 400 feet across the area.
"He thinks he can hide from me, he has another thing coming . Kamaitachi (カマイタチの術 Wind Scythe Jutsu)" Temari shouted as she swings her fan and generates a 180 degree horizontal arc that cuts down all the trees within 400 feet across Temari's direction. Renji's legs are crushed beneath a 10 foot diameter 150 foot high tree.
"Damn it, i can't move .She destroyed that many trees with just one strike." Renji said to himself as he struggles to lift the tree .Temari goes on top of the tree log and then stomps on Renji's chest
"You're unable to move now!" Temari stated as she stomps on Renji's chest. She then grabs his neck and goes to punch him in the face but Renji stabs her hand with his sealed sword.
"I'm not going down without a fight!" Renji replied as he lightly cuts her right hand. Temari holds on to it in moderate pain.
"Fuck you asshole ! If you're going to be that way ..THEN DIE!" Temari shouted as she lifts her fan and goes for the kill. She summons a violent force wind amount of Chakra. Renji gains a cut on his forehead just from the force winds.
"Shit her attack is so powerful i'm already bleeding from the attack ..so heavy i'm done for." Renji stated as the fan comes down and creates a massive 50 foot shockwave. The smoke clears up revealing that Hisagi blocked the blow with his sealed uses one hand to push back Hisagi's two handed sword block which he barely holds back pushes her back.
"Hisagi!" Renji stated.
"I finally paid you back for saving me back 50 years ago." Hisagi replied as he thinks back to Izuru, Renji and Momo blocking and Adjuchas attack from killing him.
"Careful Hisagi, she's a Jōunin it's best you flee from here." Renji stated .
"There's no escaping here alive, i would crush both of you weaklings until you talk." Temari shouted as she swings her 1 star fan against Hisagi. She swings her fan like a sword against Hisagi's Sealed Zanpakutō. Temari uses a series of vertical slashes and does an arcing slash that Hisagi blocks that sends him flying over 30 feet away but Hisagi dashes back and moves at the speed of sound to perform a lunging slash but Temari uses Shunshin to move away at 4400 ft/sec (3,000 MPH).
"Hisagi , you don't stand a chance against her with a sealed sword, use your Shikai." Renji stated.
"Seriously, your attacks are too slow!" Temari stated but Hisagi moves at 4400 ft/sec (3,000 MPH) with a sword strike but she easily holds back two-handed attack with one hand on her fan, But Hisagi uses Shunpo to appear below Temari.
"Usugiri # 7 Kusagama(草鎌, Grass Sickle)" Hisagi replied by going to slice her legs but he misses and cuts down 5 trees .
"Not bad, you got some skills but i'm afraid your attacks are no match against my Kyodai Sensu (巨大扇子Giant Folding Fan)" Temari stated. She swings around her fan creating wind slashes within an arc of her fan. The first arc cuts a 50 foot long, 5 foot deep fissure in the ground, Hisagi jumps 300 feet in the air. He dodges multiple wind slashes from Temari , he takes a hit and falls down.
"You're finished!" Temari stated as she raises her fan against Hisagi but suddenly a small gust across within Renji's area as he swings around his Shikai with one hand and then swings it around towards Temari but Temari deflects it with ease with a one-handed sword strike but he uses his Shikai to trap both of them and he binds them down.
"I got you now!" Renji said to Temari.
"What are you trying to do? I'm afraid you're not my type." Temari stated.
"I know the power difference between you and i is a big one however even with the huge gap in power, i can still damage you at point-blank range." Renji stated as he charges up a Hadō # 31 " I always sucked at Kidō. I had poor skills in Kidō and got in trouble for my spells exploding ,let's see which of us could take more damage. Hadō #31. Shakkahō(赤火砲, Red Fire Cannon)." Renji chanted as the Kidō spell explodes and shoots a 200 foot high pillar of red energy. Temari takes some light burn damage from the attack with part of her shirt burned. Renji collapses to the ground.
"Damn you ! i won't let such a weakling make a fool out of me." Temari shouted as she coughs from the smoke.
"Reap Kazeshini (風死, Wind Death)" Hisagi chanted as he unleashes a green spiritual aura around him as his sealed sword turns into two Kusarigama-like weapons, each with two scythe blades, with one inverted, giving it the resemblance of a pinwheel. The blades are connected to a spiked rod tethered together by a long chain.
"So you finally released your sword Lieutenant?" Temari asked.
"I'm Lieutenant of the 9th Division, Shūhei Hisagi." Hisagi answered.
"Hisagi, hold her off for 15 more minutes , i need more time to recover enough Reiatsu to use Bankai." Renji stated to himself.
"You think releasing your Shikai would make a difference ? Your friend there released his Shikai and i defeated him quite easily with just 1 star. A mere Lieutenant can never push me past 1 star. I must admit though , you got quite a sleek-looking weapon there." Temari arrogantly smirked.
"You mean my Kazeshini (風死, Wind Death) ? I don't like it at all." Hisagi replied.
"Then why use it idiot?" Temari shouted.
"I hate how it looks ! Look how it's shaped. It looks like it's meant to reap life itself." Hisagi stated.
"Don't give me that emo shit, i'm not here to fight you, i'm here to kick your ass." Temari shouted but before she can react , Hisagi's Shikai cuts her buns and her hair is let down.
"Don't underestimate me!" Hisagi said to Temari.
"You're going to pay for that!" Temari shouted as she dashes at Hisagi.
10 miles from Sunakagure
Rangiku struggles against the Mother and Father uses her Haineko to block a two-handed strike from the mother barely dodges the whip like strike from Chiyo's puppets. Rangiku manages to push back the mother puppet coming at her from the front while the father puppet goes from behind but Izuru block with his Shikai.
"About time!" Rangiku stated.
"Sorry, i had some minor difficulty against that girl with that stun whip." Izuru said to his partner.
"Doesn't matter , we need to defeat this old bitch somehow or she will kill us." Rangiku replied.
"You two punks can't beat me in a 1,000 years!" Chiyo stated as she has the mother and father puppets come at Izuru and Rangiku. Izuru parries a blow from the mother puppet. The father puppet uses his whip to attack Izuru but he hits the weapon twice. Rangiku clashes multiple times with the father and mother puppet. Izuru then blocks the attacks with her blade 8 times
"Raise Your Head Wabisuke (侘助 The Wretched One )" Izuru chanted as he weighs down both mother and father puppets. The puppets crash to the ground.
"What the hell ? The puppets aren't moving!" Chiyo stated to herself.
"You might be wondering why you can't move your puppets, well how many times have you clashed and blocked my sword attacks ?" Izuru asked her.
"8! So what ?" Chiyo replied.
"Wabisuke doubles the weight of any object it you aren't too senile, your puppets each weigh 70 lbs. I hit them each 8 times, that means they each weigh 8,960 lbs each. In total your arms are now carrying 17,920 lbs." Izuru explained to the elder Shinobi.
"Time for me to put an end to this. Growl Nami Haineko (波灰猫, Ash Cat Wave )" Rangiku replied as she points the hilt towards Chiyo's direction.
"Kikō Junbū (機光盾封 Mechanic Light Shield Seal)" Chiyo shouted as she shields herself from the attack. She reveals her puppet arm.
"She turned her arm into a puppet!" Rangiku said shocked at what she saw.
"You would need more than that to beat my puppets." Chiyo replied as her puppets get back up.
"They're still standing!" Izuru said to himself.
"Sōshūjin Burasuto(操襲刃 爆風Manipulating Attack Blades Blast) " Chiyo stated as her mother and father puppets fire 50 exploding kunai at Rangiku and Izuru who barely dodge the attacks.
"Our attacks didn't work on her! " Izuru stated.
"Damn it, just who the hell is this woman. Is she a Jōunin?" Rangiku asked Izuru.
"Ex Jōunin ! Also known as the Honoured Siblings." Chiyo replied as she appears behind both of them.
"Damn it, this is bad Izuru!" Rangiku said.
"Another Jōunin?" Izuru asked shocked after hearing the news.
Meanwhile in Sunagakure
Kankurō is 600 yards outside the gate of the village looking on the top getting some fresh air.
"It's a good thing to be out of that hospital bed." Kankurō stated as he sees Masturi running to the gate.
"Hey Masturi where are you off to?" Kankurō asked.
"Trouble, a group of robed people have attacked Lady Chiyo." Masturi stated.
" What ? Go get backup over there ." Kankurō stated but suddenly his body starts acting up.
"Are you alright!" Masturi asked.
"I'll be fine, hurry Lady Chiyo might die." Kankurō replied.
"Okay Captain Kankurō!" Masturi stated as she runs off to alert Baki. Kankurō then vomits on top of the vomit is white and he starts to feel serious pain.
"Damn it, i'm not feeling too good...agrgrgagagagh!" Kankurō shouted as he collapses in pain and he vomits white stuff that covers his face coming out his eye nose and mouth "What's going ..what's happening to my body?" Kankurō asked himself, holding onto his chest.
"About time, it's making some remarkable progress." Gin stated as he removes the invisibly cloak
"It's you Shinigami bastards what did you do to me, where's Gaara?" Kankurō shouted.
"He's dead thanks to us . It seems you can finally see us again, given you're Keirakukei and Tenketsu are shattered and you can't use Chakra." Gin stated.
"Damn it!" Kankurō stated.
"Normal humans can't see Shinigamis or at least in most cases." Gin replied joking around.
"What do you mean?" Kankurō stated holding his chest.
"Without your Chakra system, you no longer process Superhuman powers needed to see us by normal needs." Gin replied.

"I got it Izuru, she's a puppet master. I remember my fight with one of them. Puppeteers are weak against close range fighters. Since most puppeteer use his or her hands to manipulate the puppets, if their hands are disabled, then the technique can be neutralized. And because the puppet's movements are based on the mechanisms that were installed inside, interfering with said mechanisms can greatly stall the puppet entirely." Rangiku explained to her partner.

"Well need to go into attack formation, i'll fight off her puppets with the fullest extent of my Shikai. While she's diverted, you will use a full double incantation Rikujōkōrō on both puppets then i would use a Sekienton to blind her then you would hit both her hands 8 times with light taps ,then i will finish her with my strongest attack and you finish her off with a powerful attack."

I then hid my real self using Bakudō #26. Kyokko (曲光 Curved Light) also hiding my Reiatsu . I barely survived the attack and used my last remaining Reiatsu to heal my gaping chest wound however it seems i used up to much Reiatsu and most of other injuries have not been healed."

Renji struggles to get back drips down on his face and his hair are down , despite his Bankai reverting to its sealed form, he still maintains the fur of his Bankai "I can still fight." Renji stated while on his knees.
"Tell me where Gaara is at!" Temari shouted.
"Never!" Renji stated as he charges at Temari but Temari easily catches his sealed sword barehanded and shatters it with her bare hand.
"If you couldn't even starch me with Bankai, what thinks you're worthless sealed sword could hurt me while i'm at full power." Temari stated as she kicks Renji 200 feet through a bunch of trees. Hisagi comes at Temari with his Shikai and hits her head but the wind Chakra easily pushes back his attack and shatters his Shikai "You guys don't learn you place, like i said before a mere Lieutenant can't beat a Jōunin." Temari stated as she goes for the kill.
"Damn .. it!" Renji stated.
Temari closes her fan and prepares to finish her off with an enclosed fan strike strike but her fan is blocked by Sajin's left forearm.
"What the hell happened?" Renji asked.
"What the hell are you?" Temari questioned the wolf man.
"Renji, Hisagi get out of here and find Rukia." Sajin stated.
"But our Denreishinkis were destroyed ,we can't find her." Renji stated.
"Here is a back up one!" Sajin stated giving the Denreishinki to them as he goes to fight Temari.
"You have quite the unusual appearance , someone hasn't shaved in a while." Temari stated joking around.
"You don't look surprised!" Sajin stated.
"Tell me strange bear man what is your name?" Temari asked.
"Captain of the 7th Division. Sajin Komamura." Sajin replied as he goes for the attack.
"Jōunin Kunoichi of Sunagakure, Temari , i'll capture you and force you to tell me where Gaara is at." Temari said as she goes to attack Sajin.
10 miles from Sunakagure
Rangiku and Izuru struggle to stand up as the puppets surround them.
"You're finished!" Chiyo stated as her puppets come towards Izuru and Rangiku to finish them suddenly a puff of red smoke appears there.
"Bankai Konjiki Ashisogi Jizō (金色疋殺地蔵, Golden Leg-Cutting Jizō) " Mayuri stated as he surrounds Izuru and Rangiku with a giant creature with the body of a caterpillar in a red cape with a grotesque golden baby's head and arms with a silver halo hovering around its head, near the back of the halo are 4 bells, 2 on each side.
"Mayuri , what are you doing here?" Izuru asked Mayuri.
"I came to capture a live sample of a Ninja so i can do research on them." Mayuri replied.
"You saved our skins back there, had it continued like this, we would of died.'' Rangiku stated.
"Get out of here unless you want to be reduced to corpses, i have a Ninja to experiment on." Mayuri replied.
"I don't know who you are but it doesn't matter ,it's time you die." Chiyo stated as her 7th puppet come at the retreating Izuru and Rangiku.
"Hadō # 23 Chikara hakki(力発揮Force Exert)" Mayuri chanted as he fires a shockwave from the palm of his hand knocking back the female puppet.
"Not bad Shinigami , i assume you are one of those Captains." Chiyo stated.
"Captain of the 12th Division in the Gotei 13 and 2nd president of the Shinigami Research Institute Mayuri Kurotsuchi. It seems you use puppets similar to the Bounts , it's been awhile since i have been allowed to experiment on a human with such powers. I was wondering if you would become a subject for my experiments?" Mayuri stated.
"Not a chance!" Chiyo stated.
"Very well , i have no choice but to take you dead." Mayuri replied.

Omake 9 :Espada auditions.
Aizen is with Dordoni Alessandro Del Socaccio, Cirucci Sanderwicci, Gantenbainne Mosqueda, and Rudbornn are within an office with the sign saying Auditions for the 7th Espada.
"It's time we do Auditions for who would become the 7th Espada." Aizen said.
"Oh boy your saying that we can become Espada again." Dordoni asked cheerfully." It's been my dream to become an Espada again.
"If you recall, Zommari Leroux the pervious 7th Espada died in battle 4 chapters ago and failed as his duties as Espada." Aizen stated.
"That weakling ? Huh he never deserved the title Espada in the first place." Cirucci replied in a mocking tone.
"I can't believe i was replaced with such a weakling, i used to be the 7th Espada around here." Gantenbainne stated.
"7th, i used to be the 6th back with the old Espada. The new breed are totally overrated." Dordoni stated.
"What is Rudbornn doing here ? He's not a Privaron like us, that weakling can't even compare to that lame sack of shit Yammy." Cirucci stated.
"That's fine talk from the Former 10th Espada, last time i checked you were the weakest of the last generation .I can easily take you out." Rudbornn replied.
"You new breed Arrancars think you're stronger than the Original Espadas, funny you state that given you only existed 20 years as an Arrancar. Everyone knows i should be the new 7th Espada."Dordoni stated.
"Ha, a retard like you isn't worthy of such a title, i'm much more powerful than you." Cirucci stated.
"Says the one who's ranked 10th, i said we should fight to see who's qualified as the 7th Espada." Gantenbainne replied.
"Okay very well then, we'll have a tournament over this and see who would fill in Zommari place." Aizen stated Konan arrives in the room with a lottery machine.
"Everyone pick from the box and your opponent would be based on the number you get." Konan replied as all the Arrancar rush to get the pick. Dordoni Rudbornn is paired against Gantenbainne and Cirucci is paired against Rudbornn.
"Dordoni would fight Gantenbainne and Cirucci would fight Rudbornn, then the winners would fight in the finals over who becomes the new 7th Espada " Aizen replied.
"Sounds good with me!" Cirucci stated.
"Let's get this started!" Gantenbainne said to the other Arrancars.
"It's my dream to become an Espada!" Rudbornn said.
"Let's get ready to rumble!" Dordoni shouted.
"Get to your battle positions , tune in next time for the results of the first fight." Aizen stated.
