8:45 P.M. Ichigo and Skullak stare down at each other as the rest of the fallen Espadas look at the two staring down at each other.
" Skullak , you arrived here on time " Cirucci said to Skullak.
" Cirucci ! " Skullak said to his lover as he hugs her .
" Hey you, i'm not done talking with you " Ichigo stated as he goes to attack Skullak only for his blade to be blocked by Skullak .
" So you did this to her ? You were trying to kill her and all the Arrancars here weren't you ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" Damn straight, you monsters are a creation by Aizen who threaten the way of life of the Soul Society and the human world " Ichigo answered.
" Just as i thought, so you came here with the intent of killing us all off didn't you " Skullak stated.
" You bastards ruin countless lives and you kidnapped Orihime, i can't forgive you for what you're trying to do " Ichigo replied.
Harribel arrives at the scene to Skullak to see him facing off with the Substitute Shinigami .
" Need help Skullak ? " Harribel asked.
" I'm fine, carry Cirucci away , have her healed by Orihime " Skullak answered.
" Oh no you don't, you bastards aren't using my girlfriend to heal you guys up " Ichigo shouted as he charges at Harribel only to be blocked by Skullak again and push him back.
" What's the deal with this guy ? He keeps pushing me back like i was nothing " Ichigo said to himself.
" Harribel, make sure Cirucci is safe as well as the others " Skullak said to Harribel.
" Don't worry, they'll be safe at last " Ulquiorra replied as he shows up with Loly who's holding Grimmjow, Menoly who's holding Dordoni , Aisslinger who's holding Gantenbainne and Demoura who picks up Tesla.
" How , you bastards. How dare you use Orihime's powers to bring these guys back ? I killed you all ! " Ichigo shouted.
" Shall i assist you Skullak ? " Ulquiorra asked .
" No, i got him . Leave this guy to me, get Ninorta back to sector 22 within the 694th floor where Orihime is being held " SKullak answered.
" Right ! " Ulquiorra replied as he leaves the area.
" I'm not letting you guys use Orihime to revive your Arrancar buddies " Ichigo shouted as he goes to fire a Getsuga Tenshō at the Arrancars but Skullak uses Sonído and smacks back the blast with his barehand.
" I told you, your opponent is me ! " Skullak replied.
" Who are you ? " Ichigo shouted .
" I don't give my name to people who murder my friends, you are not my equal " Skullak answered as he pushes back Ichigo again.
" You're right, i'm much better than you Arrancar . I killed 5 Espada's , you think you're a match for me ? " Ichigo arrogantly taunted.
" Then let's test that strength of yours " Skullak answered as he stands there.
Meanwhile Harribel walks over to her Palace which was 2,500 feet next to the crater created by Ichigo to look at her Palace in ruins.
" What an immense amount of power. Had my Fracción stood here, he would of killed them off for sure. He's incredibly strong " Harribel said to herself as she looks at the rubble of her home while holding Cirucci.
Meanwhile at Las Noches gates
Kukaku , Tessai,. Yoruichi ,Kisuke , Tessai and the Vizards arrive at the fortress where the group then comes to see the hole Ichigo left within the fortress walls.
" Looks like Ichigo came here with a grand entrance " Kisuke said to the group.
" Indeed he really doesn't know the word subtlety " Yoruichi replied.
" Doesn't matter, we need to get into the floors and take Orihime out of here " Kukaku stated.
" How do we do this ? " Kensei asked.
" We'll split up the teams. Kensei will go by himself and attack the western sectors causing a diversion there, Love would attack the east sector and cause a distraction there , Shinji will cover the northern area and Rose would cover the southern area. Me, Tessai and Yoruichi would cover the advance up to the top tower and attack Aizen head on. We'll all have to avoid using Bankai within this palace unless we risk losing the palace and killing Ibiki and Orihime. While we're hitting up the areas, Kukaku and the Vizard Lieutenants would advance towards Orihime's position and get here out of there " Kisuke explained to the team.
" I see, well let's stop wasting time and attack this palace " Kensei shouted as he puts on his Vizard mask.
" Let's do this ! " Love stated as he puts on his mask.
" Everyone go into the fortress and show no mercy " Shinji shouted as he heads into the base .
The entire team rushes into the fort and launches their counterassault .
Meanwhile at Baraggan's Palace
Baraggan and his Fracción are watching the battle .
" Looks like Skullak hasn't lost his game ! " Baraggan said to his Fracción.
" That Shinigami stands no chance now ! " Findor replied.
" This should be a one-sided battle ! " Gigo stated.
" No one aside from Lord Baraggan can beat Skullak " Choe impress of Skullak not losing his fighting skills, while the Fracción watch in amazement see the sensei fight hard.
Back at the Sandlot
Ichigo and Skullak clash attacks with each other. Ichigo is struggling to strike Skullak who blocks every blow from Ichigo while not even moving an inch with one arm holding his sword nonchalantly .
Ichigo swings with immense force against Skullak using both hands however Skullak effortlessly blocks with only one hand on his sword without moving an inch while the force uplifts the ground 6 feet high around Skullak. Ichigo struggles to push back Skullak however the former Espada barely bulges whereas Ichigo struggles to push him back.
" What's the deal with this guy ? He's not taking me seriously yet is able to block my attacks . What's going on here " Ichigo said to himself as he dodges a slash from Skullak.
" Come on, is the stress of fighting 5 Espadas weakened you to the point you can't even force me to put a strong grip on my blade ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" He has a point, it seems like my body is tiring out but wait, i just recovered my Reiatsu and healed my body. I should be fighting at 100% power yet he's able to parry my attacks with barely any effort " Ichigo said to himself as he goes to slash Skullak.
Ichigo swings his blade toward Skullak however the Arrancar jumps over the blade and then goes to slash Ichigo but Ichigo blocks however is pushed back. Ichigo charges towards Skullak however Skullak stands them and casually blocks a slash from Ichigo who's using two hands on his blade. Skullak goes to stab Ichigo but Ichigo moves out of the way and goes top slash Skullak's face but Skullak easily blocks the attack and almost beheads Ichigo but Ichigo ducks over the slash.
" There's more ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he does 30 stabs per second which Ichigo dodges with his Bankai speed and jumps out of the way.
" He's fast but i can respond !" Ichigo said to himself as he evades a slash from Skullak.
" He dodged it ! " Skullak said shocked to see Ichigo disappear only to reappear in front of the Former Espada.
" Got you ! " Ichigo shouted as he slashes Skullak pushing him back however despite the force of the slash being able to take down a 100 foot pillar behind Skullak, Skullak doesn't even have a tear in his clothes let alone a starch.
" This is a rather thin blade you got there " Skullak said to Ichigo as he pushes Ichigo back 20 feet away
" I see. You got strong Hierro . You got some tough Hierro however i've found away around it " Ichigo replied as his blade glows with black and red Reiatsu and he charges at Skullak and charges at Skullak.
" Let's see how tough that blade is " Skullak responded as he stands there and stabs his sword into the ground causing the ground to uplift 10 feet high around him.
" What strength , he caused the ground to get uplifted with a single stab into the ground " Ichigo said to himself as he sees Skullak above him.
" Take this ! " Skullak chanted as he smashes the ground leveling everything within a 300 foot radius. Ichigo leaps in the air only to see Skullak above him.
" I don't think so ! " Ichigo shouted as he tires to slash Skullak however Skullak uses Sonído and slashes Ichigo in half.
" I got you !" Skullak said to Ichigo only to notice that he cut an afterimage .
" Zanzō (残像 Afterimage ) " Ichigo chanted as he creates 12 afterimages of himself moving at 12,833 ft/sec ( 8,750 MPH) to confuse Skullak.
" You're fast " Skullak said to Ichigo as he stands there with his eyes closed.
" What the ? Why are you closing your eyes ? Giving up already ? " Ichigo asked as he moves around Skullak however he's punched by Skullak no sooner he tires to slash him from behind.
" What a boring ,weak attempt of speed . Release your Bankai already, i refuse to fight you with my sword or with my eyes open if you fight me with that weak slow blade " Skullak said to Ichigo with his sword drawn back at it's sheathe .
" How dare you , i'm in Bankai state already !" Ichigo replied.
" That weapon is your Bankai ? What a joke, it's just a painted sealed sword . It barely registers as a Shikai let alone a Bankai " Skullak calmly said to the Substitute Shinigami.
" How dare you insult my Bankai ? " Ichigo shouted.
" I fought numerous Shinigami in the past and even fought against captains in the past, your power doesn't even compare to that " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" Not impressive huh ? Then allow me to show you my power " Ichigo replied as he goes to attack the Espada.
" Go ahead and bring it ! " Skullak said to the group as he stands there with his eyes closed.
" Take this Kuroi Getsuga(黒月牙; Black Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he swings down his sword with both hands and fires a powerful Black Getsuga Tenshō which pushes Grimmjow back a mile away cutting through everything it it's path . The powerful explosion clears to reveal that Ichigo's Black Getsuga created a 1/4 mile long , 30 feet deep , 5 feet wide fissure however the blast doesn't even faze him.
" Was that the best you can do with that Bankai ? " Skullak asked as he stands there without even his clothes being burned or scratched .
" Impossible , he doesn't even have starch on him . Even Ninorta was burned by a full power Getsuga Tenshō " Ichigo said to himself.
" I see , that's the best you can do, now it's my turn to go to attack " Skullak said to Ichigo as he dashes towards Ichigo.
" Shit ! " Ichigo shouted as he's kicked in the stomach and knocked back 1 mile into a 500 foot pillar which collapses from the immense force.
" Come on ,is that the best you're capable of doing in that Bankai state ? " Skullak asked Ichigo as he stands there.
" He's underestimating me , i'll just have to take him with a variety of attacks " Ichigo said to himself as he charges up a Getsuga Tenshō.
" What are you up to ? " Skullak asked with his eyes closed.
" Saku Getsuga ( 裂く 月牙Ripping Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he fires a series of 20 Getsuga Tenshōs towards Skullak but he stands there not being fazed.
" Do you think that those Getsuga have any effect on me when your strongest one couldn't cut me ? " Skullak asked Ichigo as Ichigo then goes to jump stab Skullak but he sidesteps away having Ichigo stab the ground .
" Meigetsu (明月, Harvest Moon) " Ichigo chanted as he creates a shockwave stabbing the ground which slightly overwhelms Skullak.
" What the ... ? " Skullak asked shocked to see Ichigo's attack and see Ichigo in front of him .
" Noko Kuroi Getsuga( 鋸黒月牙 Sawing Black Moon Fang ) " Ichigo shouted as he slashes Skullak however he blocks the blade with his right hand but has a light cut on his right palm.
" What the ? You actually caught me off-guard " Skullak said to Ichigo as he grabs his sword.
" Looks like i can still cut you with my blade " Ichigo said to Skullak as he gets back while Skullak looks at the small cut on his palm.
" I see, you managed to bypass my Pesquisa to hit me with an attack while i'm offguard " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" Pesquisa ? " Ichigo asked.
" I can detect you without opening my eyes by your Reiatsu " Skullak answered.
" I see, now you can't take me so lightly now! " Ichigo stated as he charges up more Reiatsu.
Meanwhile within West Las Noches
Several Arrancars are walking around the area when the wall collapses revealing Kensei smashed through the walls in his base state wearing a hollow mask.
" It's the enemy, get him " the Arrancars shouted as they charge at Kensei.
" Get serious ! " Kensei replied as he draws his sword and takes on 29 Arrancars.
" He's going to attack ! "said one of the Arrancars only to see him drop his sword and remove his mask.
" I won't be needing any of this " Kensei said to the Arrancars as he goes to a boxing stance.
" Arrogant Shinigami, you think you can beat up without your Zanpakutō ? " one of them shouted.
" Pretty much ! " Kensei answered as he stands there with an arrogant look on his face.
" Get him ! " one of the Arrancars shouted as they charge however Kensei grabs the blade barehanded.
" Pathetic ! " Kensei replied as he kicks one of the Arrancars heads off with ease and punches another one in half.
Two Arrancars charge at him with their swords but Kensei hits both Arrancars with his elbows smashing their heads off. Kensei sees 3 people charge towards him but he hits them with a roundhouse kick, cutting them in half. 9 more come towards Kensei but he crushes all of them with a series of fast punches and powerful kicks. 6 more Arrancars come towards Kensei but Kensei uses a powerful shockwave to kill them off. 7 more of them fire Ceros at Kensei however the Shinigami tanks the blasts with ease and uses high-speed punches to take him out.
All of a sudden another Arrancar appears in front of Kensei to fight him . He has short black hair, grey eyes and wears a brown uniform. His mask remains is a mask plate that covers the whole lower part of his face. His Zanpakutō takes the form of a standard katana with a brown hilt and a blaster.
" Who dares intrude Las Noches ? " the Arrancar asked Kensei.
" I'm here to destroy this place , who are you ? " Kensei asked.
" Aerial ace Buresuto Ofu ,i'm here to take you down " the Arrancar answered.
" Another canon fodder Arrancar, listen i just finished killing off your friends with little effort. I won't need to break a sweat with you " Kensei arrogantly stated as he stands there .
" Fine then , you're regret underestimating me ! " Buresuto stated.
" Bring it on ! " Kensei replied as he stands there without his sword.
" Shoot to kill Cohete de Guerrero ( Spanish for Rocket Warrior) " Buresuto chanted as he gains armor around his body . His feet turn into boosters that give him great speed that makes him an aerial ace. His left hand turns into a rapid fire machine gun and his sword turn into a double-sided axe.
" I see, not a bad release form , let's see what the Denreishinki as to say about your power level " Kensei said to the Arrancar as he takes out his phone and calculates his power level.
" I see, you're scanning how much RYK i have in my Resurrecion , it might surprise you a bit " Buresuto said to Kensei.
" 11,500 RYK, that's pretty high for a mere Arrancar " Kensei stated.
" We are the Comandos ! " Buresuto answered.
" Comandos ? " Kensei asked.
" Los Comandos ( Spanish for the Commandos ) are skilled military warriors, they might not be near the power of the Espada, but they do have the skills, power, and weapons to one day become Espadas. We are the strongest Arrancars, we're only below the Parrivon Espada and current Espada in power " Buresuto said to the Vizard captain.
" Bring it ! " Kensei stated as he puts away his phone.
" You think you can take me on with just your barehands ? How arrogant are you ? I'll teach you not to underestimate us Commandos " Buresuto shouted as he fires several rounds at Kensei with his machine arm which shoots a variety of powerful Bala attacks which Kensei is force to dodge.
Kensei dodges 820 Bala rounds from Buresuto which each are powerful enough to shred through solid walls 3 feet deep and punch 3 inch diameter holes within the walls he's shooting at. Kensei dashes towards the Arrancar but the Arrancar flies up into the air moving at 2436.6 ft/sec ( 1,600 MPH ).
" What the ? " Kensei asked as he sees Buresuto.
" I can fly using Reiatsu to power the jet boosters on my feet to fly around and attack " Buresuto explained to Kensei.
" I see ! " Kensei stated.
" You think that's bad, deal with this " Buresuto replied as he dashes at Kensei moving at supersonic speeds and shoots rounds at Kensei only for him to dodge.
" He's very annoying ! " Kensei said to himself as he then sees his foe come at him .
" Take this ! " Buresuto shouted as he comes at Kensei with an Axe but Kensei dodges the attack but gets a tiny cut on his left check.
" He's strong ! " Kensei said to himself as he dodges another slash from Buresuto.
" What's wrong Shinigami , too fast for you ? You better pick up that sword if you have any chance of winning " Buresuto shouted as he does a series of powerful slashes.
" I see ,you want me to fight seriously ? " Kensei asked Buresuto .
" Ha, you expect me to believe you're holding back " Buresuto answered.
" I see, you think this is my all ? " Kensei asked as he appears behind Buresuto.
" What the hell ? How did you get behind me so fast ? " Buresuto questioned the white-haired Vizard only to get punched 50 feet into the wall.
" Because you're not as strong as you think you are " Kensei answered as he charges up Reiatsu around his fist.
" I'll destroy you ! " Buresuto shouted and charge up Reiatsu in his left arm and axe.
Both attacks clash with each other and create a large shockwave . The smoke clears up to reveal that Kensei has a small cut on his chest and he kneels down however Buresuto has a giant hole through his chest and he falls down dead. Kensei then picks up his blade and puts it in it's sheathe.
" Looks like that wasn't half bad of a fight ! " Kensei said to himself as he walks away from the area.
Meanwhile within East Las Noches
Love runs down the hallway still in his Shikai from looking to cause trouble as he sets everything ablaze with his massive club. 20 Arrancar charge at Love with their swords but they're easily crushed and burned alive by Love.
" Piece of cake ! " Love said to himself as he stands there with his Shikai.
Suddenly Love encounters a powerful Arrancar . He has black hair, purple eyes and wears a yellow cowboy like uniform. His mask remains is a plate on the back of his neck.
" Looks like i found a good sample here, what is your name ? " the Arrancar asked .
" Who cares, you're going to die in a minute ! " Love answered as he swings his Shikai at the Arrancar.
" Good but not good enough ! " the Arrancar answered as the barrier bounces back the massive Shikai and steals the Zanpakutō back into it's sealed sword state.
" What the hell ? " Love asked as he sees his Shikai go back to his sealed form.
" My special barrier Hoja de Negación ( Spanish for Blade Negation ) uses the technology from Szayel and it allows me to seal a Shinigami's Shikai or Arrancar's Resurrección regardless of how powerful the Shikai is. . I don't really have my Zanpakutō, but i make up for it with various weapons and devices that i got from Hueco Mundo, the World of the Living, and a few from Soul Society that i stole. After i kill you, i'll retrieve your technology and Zanpakutō " the Arrancar explained to Love.
" Who are you ? " Love asked.
" My name is Swindoru, member of Los Comandos ( Spanish for the Commandos ). We're skilled military warriors that are almost Espada level " the Arrancar answered.
" it doesn't matter , your power reading is only 6,000 RYK. You're easy pickings for me even without Shikai " Love stated.
" I see, you have a point . I was always the weakest member in terms of brute strength however that changes depending on the Shikai i steal, i can increase my power . Allow me to show you my power Replicar ( Spanish for Replicar ) " Swindoru chanted as he creates an exact copy of Tengamaru.
" What the fuck ? How is it that you steal my Shikai ? " Love asked.
" I didn't steal it, i sealed yours and copied the Reiatsu to form a prefect copy of your Shikai. Now time to see the look on your face as i use your attack against you " Swindoru stated as he swings his Shikai towards Love but Love blocks with his sealed sword.
" Is that the best you got ? " Love asked.
" Hikiretsu (火亀裂Fire Fissure ) " Swindoru chanted as he slams his Shikai into the ground to create a large fissure of flame that travel to the Vizard at fast speeds which almost hits the Vizard , setting everything on fire.
" Shit, he has my attacks as well ! " Love said to himself as he sees Swindoru in the air .
" I got you ! " Love shouted as he goes to attack however Swindoru turns invisible from Swindoru.
" Shit , where did he go ? " Love asked.
" Hifuki no Koduchi (火吹の小槌, Fire-Blowing Gavel) " Swindoru chanted as he swings Tengumaru up and it ignites itself in flames he then points it downwards and a huge fireball fires from the tip sending a massive fireball towards Love creating a massive flaming pillar .
The smoke clears up that Love has put on his Hollow Mask and he's wielding his sealed sword.
" Looks like you picked the wrong opponent " Love said to the Arrancar who stole his Shikai.
" Let's see how well you do with this attack again Hifuki no Koduchi (火吹の小槌, Fire-Blowing Gavel) " Swindoru chanted as he swings Tengumaru up and it ignites itself in flames he then points it downwards and a huge fireball fires from the tip sending a massive fireball towards Love .
" Moda# 4 Aoarashi(青嵐,Mountain Air)" Love countered as he swings his sealed sword with both hands and cuts the fireball in half .
" What ? " Swindoru asked only to see Love behind him.
" Take this ! " Love shouted as he swings down his blade and cuts through the copy of his own Shikai and cuts Swindoru in half.
Meanwhile within South Las Noches
Rose walks down the southern area with his Shikai out when he encounters an Arrancar with down spiky, blue hair and wore a red visor glasses. He's wearing a blue shirt with white sleeves with red circles around the sleeve part of his shirt between his hands and elbows. The center of his shirt had a yellow curved end rectangle with a clear gray in middle of it and wore white pants. His mask remains to the form of headphones around his neck . A black panther hollow and a red and black condor hollow . The panther is on the Arrancar's right leg, while the condor is on the Arrancar's left shoulder.
" Who are you ? " Rose asked.
" My name is Sandou Webb, Ravijji and Slazer get out of here " the Arrancar answered as he tells his pets to leave.
" You're pets aren't too bad however i'm afraid that your power is nothing compared to my art , i'll show you the power of music " Rose stated as he holds his Shikai in his hands without his Vizard mask.
" Thanks but it seems you must die here. It's good to see i have someone who can appreciate music, too bad you need to die . Play Sonído Guerrero ( Spanish for Sound Warrior) " Sandou chanted as he uses his Zanpakutō to gain blue armor with an armored helmet and a mask plate covering over his lower part of his face. He gains sound speaker on his shoulder, while at the tip of his fingers has a mini speaker, and on his back is a large speaker. His also gains a bladed guitar too.
" I didn't see you draw your sword to release, come to think of it ,i didn't even see your sword " Rose said to Sandou.
" That's because the mental gloves i wear are my Zanpakutō . Unlike you Shinigami, we don't just maintain it in sword from " Sandou explained to Rose
" It doesn't matter, i'll defeat you with my beautiful musical harmonies " Rose stated as he goes for his attack.
" I find that Amusing given the only music that will come from you are your screams for mercy " Saundo replied as he grabs his guitar.
" This is amusing , i didn't Known that Arrancars had an art for music too. Not a bad arsenal but let's see if it can compare to this .Play Kinshara : Sōkyoku Dai Jūichiban - Izayoi Bara (金沙羅,奏曲第十一番・十六夜薔薇, Golden Sal Tree Sonata Number Eleven - Sixteen Day-Old Moon Rose ) " Rose chanted as he swings his Shikai and creating a massive shockwave of sound .
" Energía Negación ( Spanish for Energy Neagtion ) " Sandou countered as he negates Rose's Shikai and dispels the soundwave.
" What the hell ? " Rose asked shocked to see his Shikai disabled.
" This is my special power. Energía Negación ( Spanish for Energy Negation ) negates all Kidō based powers, including Kidō based Shikai's and Resurrección. You can't hope to beat me with Kidō based powers " Sandou explained to Rose.
" You're no ordinarily opponent are you ? " Rose asked Sandou.
" I'm one of the Comandos, a group of Arrancars powerful enough to rival the Espadas both past and present . You might call us candidates for the Parrvion Espada and Espada positions " Sandou explained to Rose.
" I see, then i'll just have to take you down the hard way Sōkatsui " Rose replied as fires a powerful blast but hits Sandou but it does no damage .
" That's not enough to hit me , i told you Kidō attacks are useless " Sandou stated only to see Rose behind him.
" Take this ! " Rose shouted as he goes to slash Sandou but he takes out his guitar and blocks the sword with ease.
" I can easily see through your attack " Sandou said to Rose.
" But how ? " Rose asked as he's pushed back.
" I can read your mind thanks to my release forms special abilities . Now time to show you the power of rock " Sandou explained to Rose as he plays his guitar.
" What is he doing ? " Rose asked.
" Oscilación del Mundo ( Spanish for Rocking the World ) " Sandou chanted as he unleashes a massive shockwave of sound from his sound speaker on his shoulder, mini speaker on the tip of his fingers, and a large speaker on his back as well as a bladed guitar which blasts Rose back 100 feet away from the shockwave.
" Damn, what an attack ! " Rose said to himself.
" Oscilación del Mundo ( Spanish for Rocking the World ) " Sandou chanted as he unleashes another massive shockwave of sound towards Rose which causes an explosion which engulfs the area in smoke.
The smoke clears up to reveal Rose has put on his Hollow mask and has emerged unscathed.
" I have no time to play with you Arrancar " Rose said to his opponent as he goes to attack with his sealed sword.
" It doesn't matter, i can read your thought and your mind, i got you " Sandou shouted as he goes to block only to have his guitar and chest cut. The guitar is cut in half while Sandou is deeply cut with blood coming out his chest .
" Shit , how did you cut me ? " Sandou asked.
" You're far too slow to counter my moves ! " Rose answered.
" How about this ? Oscilación del Mundo ( Spanish for Rocking the World ) " Sandou chanted as he unleashes another massive shockwave of sound towards Rose which causes an explosion which engulfs the area in smoke however Rose has been shown to easily escape the blast.
" Behind you Arpeggio (アルペジオ, Arupejio) " Rose chanted as he levitates his Zanpakutō and scabbard in a cross shape in front of him. Rose moves his fingers as if playing a piano which accompanied by the sound of piano keys being played. A wire appears and wraps around Sandou.
" What the hell ? " Sandou shouted as he's unable to move.
" I bypassed your Kidō defenses, without the guitar, you can't negate my attacks . Too bad " Rose explained to Sandou as his hand glows with a yellow light and by simple hand movements he plays different notes causing Sandou become further constricted by the wires however is tackled down by Sandou's pets.
" Ravijji and Slazer get out of here , he's too strong " Sandou shouted but his animals refuse to stand down.
" What's going on ? They're actually defending their master but how and why ? This is nothing like i've seen before from other Arrancars in the past " Rose said to himself as he negates his attack and spares the Arrancar.
" What are you doing ? " Saundo asked.
" I'm letting you go, you're not like most Arrancar here " Rose answered.
" What do you mean ? " Saundo questioned.
" I never seen Arrancars with such a lovely talent for music and it seems like you have a bond with the pets , i don't have in it him to kill such loyal creatures or a good owner even if he's an Arrancar " Rose explained to Saundo.
" But i can never live up to your talent , you're a musical genius " Saundo stated .
" Well one day when we meet again , maybe you might. However you need to live for your pets and you need to live to produce music for this place " Rose replied as he runs off to aid in the assault.
" That Shinigami, he's different from the others. Ravijji and Slazer get me out of here" Saundo said to his pets as they carry him away.
" Maybe these Arrancar are not so different from Soul Reapers, hell there barely that different from humans " Rose said to himself as he leaves.
Meanwhile within North Las Noches
Shinji runs across the place when he encounters an Arrancar with short brown hair, orange-yellow eyes, and wearing a blue military uniform. His mask remains is a mask plate that covers on his chin, mouth, and lower part of his nose. His Zanpakutō take the form of a massive rectangular shape double-sided hammer.
" We been expecting intruders around this place " the Arrancar said to the Shinigami .
" Another Arrancar, dis place is infested with them pests " Shinji stated.
" How dare you insult the glory of the Arrancars , i 'll teach you to undermine the leader of the Commandos " the Arrancar replied.
" Just who are you ? " Shinji asked.
" My name is Onsurōto but that matters not for you would be dead soon " the Arrancar answered.
" I see, so this is the welcome party ? " Shinji asked as he sees Onsurōto draw his blade.
" Time to deal with the likes of you . Strike Comandante de Ataque ( Spanish for Onslaught Commander) " Onsurōto chanted as he gains armor throughout his body and his Zanpakutō stay as a hammer. His left hand turns into a high-powered blaster and two long-range barreled canons form on his back .
" I see, so you must be an Espada level Arrancar ? " Shinji asked Onsurōto.
" Not quite, i'm the leader of the Comandos, we're almost Espada level but we're not strong enough to be real Espadas " Onsurōto answered.
" I see, very well then . I'll just have to take you guys out " Shinji replied as he dashes towards the Arrancar and they clash attacks.
" I got you ! " Onsurōto said to Shinji as he fires Balas from the back canons but the Vizard jumps out of the way and goes to avoid the shots.
Shinji blocks the hammer again and goes to slash the Arrancar but the Comando dodges the attack and charges up a Cero from his left canon.
" Shit ! A Cero ! " Shinji said to himself as he sees the attack he comes towards Onsurōto.
" Take this ! " Onsurōto chanted as he fires a Cero towards Shinji however he blocks the blast with both swords on his hands and cuts the Cero in half.
" That was a close one ! " Shinji said to himself only to see Onsurōto behind him.
" I got you ! " Onsurōto replied as he smacks Shinji into the wall with his nose bleeding.
" Damn, that attack was stronger than i expected " Shinji said to himself as he wipes the blood from his nose and gets back up to fight.
" My Comandante de Ataque ( Spanish for Onslaught Commander) gets stronger every time i injure my opponent, depending on how much blood i gather, i can increase my strength. This is a perfect weapon against multiple enemies. Once i gather at least 2 liters of blood, my power would increase by 500% " Onsurōto explained to Shinji.
" I see however, you think i'll just let myself get hit again ? I'm still stronger than you even with your release form " Shinji stated.
" I know, that's why i have some backup " Onsurōto replied as he blows on a whistle to summon 3 hollows to come towards him.
One of them is an armored black-skinned humanoid warrior with extremely tough Hierro with a turtle shell and spikes with horns on it's head and claws . Another hollow is a large bald, muscular armored warrior was very tough Hierro. It wields a large hammer and a shield and the last Hollow is a large armored warrior with very tough Hierro. It has a rectangular head with a single eye. On bot of its arms are large blades. On is back are two boosters.
" What the hell are those things ? " Shinji asked the Comando leader.
" These are special experimental Hollow Warriors created by Shokku to fight on my side and take orders. Each of these Hollows have 4 times the strength of an average Números however, all forms of rationality, memory retention, speech, and intelligence were purposely removed to enhance their power and they only respond to the owner . Destructor, Bruto , Saltador , crush him " Onsurōto said to the group as the hollows charge at Shinji.
Shinji blocks a charging strike from Destructor however he's pushed back a bit by the mindless hollow.
" What immense force , i can't hold back on this one " Shinji said to himself as he dashes using Shunpo and slashes Destructor however the sealed sword does Zero damage.
" Fool, Destructor has the toughest Hierro, there's no way a Shinigami can cut hurt him with just a sealed sword " Onsurōto explained to Shinji.
" AWRARGH ! " Destructor roared as Shinji dodges a punch from the Arrancar.
" That was too close for comfort ! " Shinji said to himself only to see Saltador above him.
" RRROARRGH ! " Saltador roared as he slashes with immense force that causes the ground to crack and fissure but Shinji dodges the attack.
" That creature is fast ! " Shinji said to himself only to see Bruto with his large hammer but Shinji dodges the attack while the strikes generate powerful shockwaves .
" ROORAGH ! " Destructor roared as he uses his two-barreled gun on his right arm that fires a powerful flamethrower blast towards Shinji.
" Hado # 9 . Mizuhō Gazō(水砲画像 Water Gun Shot) " Shinji countered as he shoots pressurized streams of water from their finger to counter the blast only for Onsurōto to come from behind.
" I got you now !" Onsurōto shouted as he smashes Shinji's head with the hammer causing a lot of blood to come out his face and knocks him down.
" Shit ! " Shinji shouted as he struggles to move.
" Now time to finish you off ! " Onsurōto said to Shinji as he charges up a Cero as well as his Hollow warriors.
" Damn it ! " Shinji said to himself as he struggles to move.
" Fire ! " Onsurōto chanted as he fires Ceros from his left arm cannon and back canons while the Hollow warriors fires Ceros from their mouth and they all hit Shinji.
The explosion clears up to reveal that Shinji has donned his Vizard mask with his sealed sword and goes to fight the Arrancars in round two.
" I have no time to play with you guys " Shinji said to the Hollows.
" Get him ! " Onsurōto shouted as his Hollows come to take out Shinji.
" Too slow ! " Shinji replied as he appears behind all 3 Arrancar and casually slashes the Hollows to bits.
" Impossible,how can you slash them down so easily ? " Onsurōto asked.
" That's the power of my Hollow mask ! " Shinji answered.
" I'll crush you ! " Onsurōto shouted as he goes to slash Shinji however the Vizard slashes him in half.
Shinji removes his mask which then reveals his forehead wound has fully healed due to his Hollow regeneration.
" Looks like the regeneration worked like a charm . That is the power of a fully mastered Hollow Mask " Shinji said to himself.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 11
Kukaku, Hachigen , Lisa, Hiyori and Mashiro rush to the aid of Orihime and Ibiki when they encounter an Arrancar with shoulder-length black hair, red eyes, and wears a gray uniform. His mask remains take the shape of a v-shape blades on his black. His Zanpakutō takes the form of a katana with a grey hilt and the blade takes the shape of a copter blade.
" Looks like i found myself some intruders to fight " the Arrancar said to them.
" Who are you ? " Kukaku asked.
" My name is Borutā , Las Noches interrogator and member of the Comandos " the Arrancar answered.
" We have no time to fight him together, one of us would have to stay here and fight the enemy " Hachigen said to the group.
" Leave this guy to me " Kukaku said to the group.
" Wait, let me handle this guy " Hiyori shouted only to be pushed back .
" Trust me , you guys should be able to handle the Espada alone. Don't waste your time with these lesser Arrancars " Kukaku stated as she draws out her sword.
" I see, she has a point , let's go guys " Lisa said to the group.
" Right ! " Mashiro replied.
" It's best we split up to find Orihime and make sure that she's safe " Hachigen said to the group.
" Okay, let's split up! " Mashiro stated as she rushes out .
" Right ! " Lisa replied as she leaves Kukaku with the Arrancar.
" How dare you think you can take me one on one " Borutā said to Kukaku.
" You're just a normal Arrancar, i can take you easily without releasing my sword " Kukaku arrogantly taunted.
" Fool, i'm a Comando, i have the power to rival an Espada. I'm nothing like a mere Arrancar " Borutā shouted as he draws his sword while Kukaku pulls out her phone.
" You're power level is only 1,800 RYK. My RYK is 3,000 RYK right now. You're hardly a threat " Kukaku laughed.
" I see, let's see how much you'll be laughing after i do this . Shred Viento del Helicóptero ( Spanish for Wind Copter) " Borutā chanted as he gains armor and his mask remain extends out becoming a four blade copter blade on his back, which generates his wind power from. His sword becomes a saber copter blade and on his left arm he gains a mini copter blade, which is used for close combat or as a boomerang.
" Your power just jumped up to 9,000 RYK " Kukaku said to the Arrancar shocked by the power increase.
" Impressed ? Looks like your power isn't all that great compared to mine " Boruta taunted.
" You're going to be tough to fight, Smash Raimeihamā (雷鳴ハマーThunderclap Hammer ) " Kukaku answered as she releases her Shikai.
Meanwhile at Tōusen's control room.
Tōusen is watching the Vizard Vice Captains go through the palace to find Orihime while the Vizard Captains tear through the palace causing destruction and creating a diversion. Despite being blind, Tōusen can tell what's going on within the screen . Three Arrancar then appear to talk with Tōusen.
One of the Arrancars has long black hair, red eyes, and black and yellow uniform. His mask remains are a pair of antennas that are above his ears. His Zanpakutō is a katana with a yellow hilt. The other Arrancar is a muscular man with short dark silver hair and red eyes. He wears a purple and silver uniform and his mask remain is a horn on top of his head. His Zanpakutō is a broadsword with a black hilt and the last Arrancar has short-length black hair, red eyes, wears a black uniform with purple arm sleeves. His mask remains are a pair of curved horns on his back. His Zanpakutō is a katana with a purple hilt.
" What are you guys doing here ? " Tōusen asked the Arrancars.
" We're here to serve you ! " the Arrancars answered.
" That's a rarity, most Arrancar and even Espada don't like me very much " Tōusen stated.
" We have trained very hard to become your Fracción to the point we became stronger than nearly all existing Arrancars that aren't Espadas " all of them replied.
" I see, let's see how well you do against the enemies. Shāpuneru, take on the girl with the glasses. Bonbu Sheru , take on the midget with the blonde and Kikku Bakku , take on the girl with the green hair " Tōusen explained to the Arrancars.
" What is the objective of the intruders ? " the Arrancars asked.
" The intruders are heading to were Orihime is !" Tōusen answered.
Meanwhile at the Sandlot
Ichigo struggles to clash with Skullak. Ichigo's Bankai is failing to cut Skullak and is barely flinching the former Espada .
" Take this ! " Skullak said to Ichio as he swings down his sword to hit Ichigo but Ichigo blocks with both hands on his Bankai struggling to hold back Skullak's one-handed sword swing as the force of the blow creates a 50 foot diameter, 10 foot deep crater.
" Shit, i can't hold it ! " Ichigo stated as he pushes it back a bit and uses Shunpo to doge another strike.
" Pathetic, i expect more from the guy who defeated 5 Espada " Skullak said to Ichigo.
" I see, you think is the full extent of my Bankai ? Hardly. In fact the problem here is that i'm only getting started. Nothing is stopping me from getting back Orihime " Ichigo explained to Skullak as he pours more Reiatsu into his sword swing and pushes him back
" You think coming here and killing my Arrancar brothers and sisters was the way to do it " Skullak asked Ichigo as he pushes back Ichigo 50 feet away with a casual swing.
" Don't underestimate me ! " Ichigo replied as he jumps up and goes to slash Skullak but the former Espada blocks the blow with his sword.
" You're overestimating yourself, this is barely a warm up for me ! " Skullak responded as he knocks Ichigo 500 feet aside.
Ichigo and Skullak clash attacks with each other. They clash with a series of blows however Ichigo is constantly overpowered by Skullak's one-handed casual swings while Ichigo struggles to hold it back with both hands on his blade. Ichigo is almost entirely outclassed by Skullak's raw power and Hierro as he struggles to land blows . Ichigo is then kicked in the face by Skullak and launched 330 feet away .
" You can't defeat me ! You're power doesn't seem to have fully recovered " Skullak said to Ichigo only to see Ichigo behind him.
" Take this ! " Ichigo shouted as he swings the blade towards Skullak's neck and slashes Skullak however the dense Hierro of the former Espada effortlessly blocks the two-handed blade slash with Getsuga Tenshō energy condensed around the blade.
" Not a bad attempt but it seems like that wasn't nearly enough to slit my throat " Skullak said to Ichigo.
" Damn it, nothing i do is cutting him ! " Ichigo said to himself as he backs away while Skullak stands there unfazed.
" Quit toying around, show me your real power ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he stands there unfazed.
" I see, very well then . I will stop holding back ! " Ichigo replied as he pulls out his Hollow Mask.
Ichigo forms his Hollow mask on his face which forms a black aura around his body which unleashes a powerful gust of wind creating a massive wave of energy engulfing everything within a 1,500 foot radius in a whirlwind. The black and red Reiatsu whirlwind clears to reveal Ichigo is now wearing a Hollow mask . The mask is pure white on the right side and possesses a total of ten red stripes. Ichigo's eyes irises become yellow, and he has black sclera and pupils. His body glows with a dark amount of Reiatsu.
" I see, so this is the true extent of your power , you've become something equivalent to us Arrancar . No wonder you were able to take on the bottom 5 Espadas and Parrvion Espadas " Skullak said to Ichigo.
" Arrancars ? Don't compare me to your kind ! " Ichigo replied.
" How are you not like us ? " Ichigo asked Skullak.
" You Arrancars are monsters created for destruction by Aizen , i'm a human " Ichigo answered.
" You're a fool, us Arrancars are no different from you humans " Skullak stated.
" You Arrancars, there all monsters. You filthy hollow scum kill innocent people so you bastards can obtain more power. You're nothing like Shinigami or Humans, they're the greatest threat to this world next to the Shinobi. It's because of you bastards, i lost my mother , it's because of guys like you , Rukia was nearly executed and it was because of you guys that Orihime lost her brother " Ichigo ranted.
" So you equate the injustice that you suffered from Hollows to all Arrancars ? Not all Arrancars are violent or evil . The reason we fight is because the Shinigami oppressed us and hunted our kind to extinction. We Hollows strive to become human again and we're forced to eat souls in order to go a step closer to humans. The Soul Society doesn't care about actually helping pluses maintain their humanity , they only care about destruction. Lord Aizen is the true savior of the Hollow race " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" Peace my ass, you hollows are monsters that crave nothing but destruction. You attack innocent human lives and you follow Lord Aizen's goals. You're trying to wipe out the Shinigami and human race . You monsters have no honor " Ichigo stated.
" The Soul Society is nothing more but a bunch of ruthless barbarians who have no honor whatsoever. They don't care about us Hollows despite the fact we're sentient beings , they don't bother to distinguish the mindless hollows from the true hollows such as myself and all of us in this room. You're just as racist as the rest of the Shinigami " Skullak replied .
" Bastard , how dare you call me racist ? " Ichigo shouted.
" I didn't stutter, you generalize all Arrancars based on the actions of a few Hollows . That is no different from hating someone based on one's skin color " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" Don't you dare compare yourselves to humans. I'm not a racist, my best friend Chad was a Mexican , i have been trained by a black woman who was known to be the fastest Shinigami in the world a half Dutch girlfriend that you bastards kidnap. People are born within a race, Arrancars aren't born, they're created . There are no Arrancars who can be born , DON'T YOU DARE CALL ME A RACIST ! Ichigo shouted while ranting about the Arrancars and goes to clash with Skullak which pushes him back.
" It's Shinigami like you that makes me wish the death of your kind. I will help Aizen win this entire war and once we win this war, Aizen can have control of two dimensions. Once Aizen is the Soul King, Hollows will no longer be hunted or oppressed, they would be the dominant race and they no longer face fear of the Shinigami . We can finally gain what was stolen from us, our humanity " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" I'll never allow you bastards to take over the world ! " Ichigo stated.
" You'll fall here and we will finally make all Hollows human again ! " Skullak replied.
Meanwhile at Sector 5, 186th floor
Hachigen makes his way to were Orihime is being held at as well Ibiki. Hachigen's fellow teammates are distracting most of the Arrancars in Las Noches attacking chunks of the palace while the other Vizard Vice Captains split up to find Orihime and attack any Arrancar within their path whereas Hachigen has avoided combat as much as possible .
12 Arrancars appear to take on Hachigen.
" Get that guy ! " the Arrancar said to the rest as they charge at Hachigen.
" I don't wish to fight you guys ! " Hachigen replied as he dodges an attack from one Arrancar.
" Take this ! " one of the Arrancars shouted as he charges up a Cero.
" Bakudō #1. Sai (塞, Restrain) " Hachigen chanted as locks the Arrancar's arms in place behind his back.
" ARRWARGH ! " 2 Arrancars shouted as they come at the chubby Vizard.
" Bakudō # 4. Hainawa ( 這縄,Crawling Rope)" Hachigen chanted as he summons an energy rope entangling both Arrancar's arms.
" He's strong ! " one of the Arrancars said to his friend.
" Attack him from a distance ! " another Arrancar shouted however Hachigen stops there attacks.
" Bakudō # 61 . Rikujokoro ( 六杖光牢Six Rods Prison of Light) " Hachigen chanted as he summons six thin, wide beams of light that slam into both Arrancars midsection, holding them in place with the same Kidō.
" Take this ! " one of the Arrancars shouted as he fires a Barrage of Balas at Hachigen but the Vizard blocks with a Kidō Shield.
" Bakudō # 61 . Sajo Sabaku (鎖条鎖縛, Locking Bondage Stripes) " Hachigen chanted as he binds down 3 more Arrancars.
" Shit , he's too powerful ! " the Arrancars shouted as they go for a team attack.
" Bakudō # 27. Tanma Otosh ( タンマ落としTime out dropping )" Hachigen chanted as he put 3 of the Arrancars charging up Cero's to put them asleep. One remaining Arrancar then jumps up to sneak attack Hachigen.
" Take this ! " the Arrancar shouted.
" Bakudō # 30 . Shitotsu Sansen (嘴突三閃,Beak-Piercing Triple Beam)" Hachigen chanted as he forms a golden triangle and pins the Arrancar into the wall with the Kidō in a shape of a perfect triangle.
" He took us out without drawing his sword ! " the Arrancars said to each other.
" Sorry but i can't bring myself to kill,even if it's Arrancars ! " Hachigen replied as he runs away.
Meanwhile within Sector # 24 , 138th floor
Lisa charges through Las Noches going through as many Arrancars in her path. 20 Arrancars try to attack her but she uses her high-speed to cut them to ribbons . Lisa then encounters an Arrancar with short-length black hair, red eyes, wears a black uniform with purple arm sleeves. His mask remains are a pair of curved horns on his back. His Zanpakutō is a katana with a purple hilt.
" Stop intruder ! " the Arrancar said to Lisa as he draws his blade.
" Great another low-level Arrancar , you guys are a real pain " Lisa replied as she dashes at the Arrancar but the black-haired humanoid hollow blocks the blade with his own.
" How rude of you . My name is Shāpuneru, i'm here to crush you...CRUSH YOU ! " the Arrancar answered while emphasizing his last words.
" Great a retard that empathizes his last words , you might have been lucky to block my sword however lightning doesn't strike twice buddy " Lisa stated as she goes for an attack.
" Shock Ciervo Volante ( Spanish for Stag beetle) " Shāpuneru chanted as he turns into a humanoid stag beetle . His armored shell of a body is green and he has large pincers for horns and four large muscular arms and two antennas on his head .
" I see, you're getting serious ! " Lisa said to the Arrancar.
" Let's see if you can handle this attack " Shāpuneru chanted as he fires electricity at Lisa but Lisa barely dodges the attack.
" Damn , he's fast ! " Lisa said to herself.
" What's wrong ? Can't handle my attack ? I can control lightning in this release form and my power is far greater than yours... YOURS ! " Shāpuneru explained to Lisa.
" I see, i can't take you as a joke . Time to end this fast , Smash Haguro Tonbo (鉄漿蜻蛉, Iron Drink Dragonfly) " Lisa chanted as she slams the hilt of her Zanpakutō into the mouth of its scabbard before twirling it over her head with both of her hands. As she then twirls it around her body, the Shikai command prompts it to quickly lengthen into an exceptionally long pole arm outfitted with a blade reminiscent of that of a Monk's spade on one end, and a heavy ball on its other end.
Meanwhile at Sector #41, 137th floor
Hiyori rushes to rescue Orihime when she encounters a muscular Arrancar with short dark silver hair and red eyes. He is wearing a purple and silver uniform and his mask remains is a horn on top of his head. His Zanpakutō is a broadsword with a black hilt.
" An enemy , time to chop you down !" Hiyori shouted as he charges out to attack the Arrancar.
" I don't think so! " the Arrancar replied as he swings his sword to block the attack and knock Hiyori back.
" Not bad, you have more strength than the others " Hiyori said to the Arrancars.
" My name is Bonbu Sheru, nice to meet you " the Arrancar answered.
" Well time to introduce you to my Zanpakutō " Hiyori shouted as she charges at him again.
" Break Escarabajo Rinoceronte (Spanish for Rhinoceros Beetle) " Bonbu chanted as he turns into a humanoid beetle with a dome shell on his back with hide his insect wings. He has sharp claws and has a blade horn on top of his head.
" You think releasing is going to help you ? Think again" Hiyori shouted as she goes to stab Bonbu in the neck but the blade cracks and fails to pierce his Hierro.
" You can't hurt me with such a weak attack! " Bonbu shouted as he headbutts Hiyori into a wall.
" Shit, i stabbed you in the neck ! " Hiyori shouted.
" Looks like your attack isn't enough to pierce my Hierro ! " Bonbu taunted as he feels on his neck.
" Let's see how well it does against this Chop Cleanly Kubikiri Orochi (馘大蛇, Beheading Serpent)" Hiyori replied as she releases her Shikai.
Meanwhile at Sector #10, 194th floor
Mashiro charges towards where Orihime is being held at kicking down several Arrancars as she charges toward Orihime's location when she encounters an Arrancar with long black hair, red eyes, and black and yellow uniform. His mask remains are a pair of antennas that are above his ears. His Zanpakutō is a katana with a yellow hilt.
" You're the enemy ! " the Arrancar said to Mashiro as he dashes towards Mashiro to fight the Vizard.
" Bring it ! " Mashiro replied as she goes to fight the random Arrancar.
" I'm Kikku Bakku, i'm here to crush all who intruder on lord Aizen's property " the Arrancar said to Mashiro.
" Come at me bro ! " Mashiro replied as she gets into her fighting stance.
" Stomp Saltamontes ( Spanish for Grasshopper) " Kikku chanted as he becomes a humanoid grasshopper with blade shape wings.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 11
Kukaku is holding her own against Borutā however her speed can't keep up with the Arrancar but her power is enough to keep Borutā on his toes. Borutā at Kukaku with his spinning mini copter blade but the raven haired Shinigami blocks the attack using both hands on her Shikai while being pushed back 20 feet but she regains her balance.
" He's fast ! " Kukaku said to herself as she stares right at the Arrancar.
" Not bad but try dealing with this ! " Borutā said to the raven haired Shinigami as he shoots his mini copter blade at Kukaku but Kukaku dodges the deadly blade as it easily cuts a 5 story pillar in half.
" Damn, that's one deadly blade . I got to avoid that attack at all cost otherwise, he'll take my head off with that " Kukaku said to herself as she holds on to her hammer.
" Take this ! " Borutā shouted as the blade comes towards Kukaku .
" Bakudō # 57. Happō Shokushu (発泡触手Foam Tentacles) " Kukaku chanted as she binds the mini copter with foam tentacles using her right hand however it cuts through the Kidō with ease.
" Now die ! " Borutā shouted as his blade comes towards Kukaku and cuts her in half.
" ARRGH ! " Kukaku screamed in pain as she falls to the ground .
" Hahahahahaaha ! " Borutā laughed only to see it was a portable gigal.
" Got you ! " Kukaku shouted as she appears behind him.
" SHIT ! " Borutā shouted as he turns around to see Kukaku.
" Tengoku Sandāsuto (天国サンダーストHeaven Thunder Strike ) " Kukaku chanted as she swings her hammer downward and creates a lightning fissure which hits Borutā and creates a massive 500 foot radius explosion.
The explosion clears up to reveal that Borutā has survived with a wind barrier around him caused by the spinning of his copter blades which is generating wind.
" Not a bad attack, too bad what you used was a lightning based strike " Borutā said to Kukaku.
" Damn it , a wind barrier ! " Kukaku shouted.
" Wind is strong against lightning because it is a natural electrical insulator. You were badly matched against me Shinigami " Borutā explained to Kukaku.
" It's not over yet ! " Kukaku stated.
" Give up. Once i capture you, i'm going to pry out your secrets and there hasn't been no one I haven't broken and got information and secrets from !" Borutā replied.
Meanwhile at Sector # 22, floor 694
Rudbornn gets a call from Gin about the conflict within the lower floors.
" Rudbornn, you're needed to take on the intruders downstairs " Gin said to the Exequias leader.
" What about the girl ? " Rudbornn asked.
" The Calaveras could take care of that. Orihime isn't much of a fighter and therefore can be handled by the Calaveras " Gin answered.
" Right , i'll see through it that the intruders are destroyed " Rudbornn stated as he leaves the area leaving 10 guards outside.
Out of nowhere , they are all token down by Shiruken seconds after Rudbornn left . Ibiki then reveals herself to be cloaked and then opens the cell door for Orihime.
" How we're you able to impersonate Gin ? " Orihime asked Ibiki.
" I was able use this voice modifier and use the stolen phone number from his control room to do so, with the guy out of the way ,we can meet up with the rest of the team " Ibiki explained to Orihime.
" So what are we going to do now ? " Orihime asked.
" We're calling in for backup !" Ibiki answered.
Meanwhile at Sector # 35, 583th floor
Kisuke gets a call from Ibiki about Orihime and her about to make their escape.
" So you have Orihime secured ? " Kisuke asked the group.
" Yep, all the Arrancars have left to fight off Ichigo and the Vizards. The floor in this sector is completely cleared off " Ibiki answered.
" Good, remain within that floor. I'll call the other Vizards to get to your location " Yoruichi said to Ibiki through her headset.
" Looks like Ichigo's rampage made this alot easier for us " Ibiki replied.
" Stay hidden with Orihime, given the high death toll and casualty rate of the Espadas and Arrancar that's most likely going to occur , they would come looking for Orihime . If possible , advance further up to stay hidden " Kisuke commanded.
" Right ! " Ibiki replied.
Meanwhile at Aizen's Throne room
Aizen is talking with the rest of the Espadas about the intruders.
" All Espadas are to engage these mock Arrancars " Aizen said to the Espadas
" No problem , this chaos has gone on long enough ! " Baraggan replied.
" I'm still escorting the injured to the medical wings and the badly injured to Orihime " Ulquiorra said to the leader.
" Same here ! " Harribel stated.
" I'm busy protecting the medical wing ! " Starrk replied.
" Grimmjow is too heavily injured as well as the Parrivon Espada and Ninorta is still dead " Harribel reported.
" I'm still too worn out from the fight with the Substitute Shinigami to fight again, not to mention my lab is gone " Szayel explained to Aizen.
" I see, get your acts together and fight the intruders ! " Aizen calmly said to the Espada.
Meanwhile at the Medical Bay , Sector # 13 , 570th floor
Starrk is within the Hospital with Rey getting treated by the doctors within the facility.
" Looks like Aizen is a bit upset with us " Starrk said to Lilynette.
" What are you waiting for ? Let's kick some Shinigami ass " Lilynette stated .
" Fine but who would protect the Arrancars here ? " Starrk asked.
" Leave that to me ! " Sheelal answered.
" Are you sure ? That Shinigami attacking has token out several Espadas and not to mention there are other Shinigami as powerful as him" Mila asked.
" Have some fate in Sheelal, when he's serious, he can match on par with even an Espada " Sun Sun answered.
" I agree , we're safe as long as he's here " Rey said to them.
" Then i guess i got to deal with this problem before it gets out of hand , come Lilynette " Starrk stated.
" Right ! " Lilynette replied as she joins Starrk.
Meanwhile at Baraggan's palace
Choe, Findor and Gigo are watching the battle from the rooftop as they see Baraggan head out to deal with the problem.
" Where are you going Lord Baraggan ? " Choe asked the king.
" I'm going to deal with the intruders ! " Baraggan answered.
" Cool, we get to see you in action ! " Findor stated.
" No, you guys stay here within the barrier. If you walk out of here, you'll be killed in the crossfire ! " Baraggan replied as he leaves his palace.
Back at the Sandlot
Ichigo and Skullak clash attacks with each other . Skullak is still in his sealed sword form while Ichigo is in his Bankai and Vizard Mask form. Ichigo dodges Skullak slash an is giving the former Espada a hard time in base form.
" Take this ! " Ichigo shouted as he fires a blue Getsuga Tenshō at Skullak .
" Not enough ! " Skullak replied as he uses his sealed sword to deflect masked Ichigo's Getsuga creating a cloud of smoke. Ichigo dashes at 3,2083.3 ft/sec(21,875 MPH) right in front of Skullak.
" Got you ! " Ichigo shouted as he slashes Skullak which pushes through 5 pillar like buildings with his chest being cut .
" Damn, he's gotten stronger ! " Skullak said to himself as he tires to get up from the 5th pillar.
" Kuroi Getsuga(黒月牙; Black Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he fires a powerful wave of energy causing a 2,000 foot explosion.
Skullak gets back up with blood dripping out of his head from the light slash caused by Ichigo's Getsuga Tensho.
" You've gotten much stronger but if you think that's enough to kill me, think again " Skullak said to Ichigo as he uses a two-handed slash cutting Ichigo across the chest lightly cutting Ichigo.
" Damn it ! " Ichigo shouted as he covers his chest.
" Like i said before , you're far from unstoppable . You process such immense arrogance if you think you can kill me and all the other Espadas " Skullak said to Ichigo.
" I been doing well against you and the other Espadas so far , i defeated 5 of them . Another 5 Espadas would be no problem now that i'm using my mask " Ichigo stated as he comes at Skullak.
" You think so huh ? Then allow me to show you how your overconfidence would be your downfall " Skullak replied as he blocks Ichigo's sword strike.
Skullak dashes at Ichigo and uses a powerful Reiatsu enhanced slash but the former Espada dodges the slash and goes to slash Skullak with his blade but Skullak blocks with his sealed sword. Ichigo counters by kicking Skullak at the left side of his chest but Skullak counters grazing Ichigo's right forearm with his blade, Grimmjow counters with a spinning kick which knocks Skullak out of the air and into the ground.
" HHAAHAHAHAHA!Is that all you got ? " Ichigo asked.
" You're overconfidence would be your undoing " Skullak answered as he charges up a Cero from his right hand which fires as a black beam forcing Ichigo to dodge and appear behind Skullak with Shunpo and goes to slash the brown hair Arrancar from behind but Skullak counters with a powerful slash causing a 500 foot high sandwave .
The collision wave causes a 10 foot diameter ,1 foot deep crater while Skullak and Ichigo stand there struggling to overpower each other . Ichigo pushes his sword forward which causes Skullak to be pushed back 2 feet back but Skullak puts a stronger grip with his right hand and pushes Ichigo 2 feet back. Both and them release a wave of Reiatsu and then come at each other again.
" Take this ! " Skullak said to the orange haired teen as he goes to stab him but he uses Shunpo to dodge the blow and jumps above him.
" Above you !" Ichigo shouted as he does a jumping slash but Skullak uses Sonído to dodge the kick as it kicks up a ton of dust into the air and he goes to stab Ichigo but he dodges the attack.
" Let's see how fast you move ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he does 50 rapid stabs towards Ichigo but he dodges and sidesteps the attacks.
" Those slow attacks aren't enough to catch me " Ichigo replied as he throws 50 rapid punches at Skullak but the Arrancar dodges her blows Sonído to appear behind the Shinigami .
" Too slow ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he fires a jet black Cero from his hands .
" Kuro Tsukigata ( 黒月形 Black Crescent Moon ) " Ichigo countered as he swings his sword 360 degrees to create a barrier like blast to deflect the attack.
" What the ? " Skullak said shocked to see his attack deflected and see Ichigo in front of him.
" Noko Kuroi Getsuga( 鋸黒月牙Sawing Black Moon Fang ) " Ichigo chanted as he swings his sword and cuts Skullak in half from head to toe.
" ARRGH ! " Skullak shouted as he gets split in half vertically in a perfectly symmetrical pattern.
. " Ha , not so tough are you ? " Ichigo arrogantly laughed only to see Skullak behind him.
" Got you ! " Skullak answered as he fires a Cero hitting him from behind and pushing him down to the ground with his back burned.
" What the hell ? How did you escape my attack ? I saw you die and detected your Reiatsu drop down drastically " Ichigo asked shocked to see the Arrancar still standing.
" You feel for my Falsa Muerte( Spanish for False Death) technique, a signature ability which allows me to fake my death creating an illusion in my place. It's on a far higher level than a simple afterimage clone for it mimics the Reiatsu, smell and touch of the slain Arrancar " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" I see, you were able to dodge that huh, try dodging this Saku Getsuga ( 裂く 月牙Ripping Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he swings his sword 20 times at hypersonic speeds to fire a barrage of circular Getsuga Tenshōs.
" Bala Tormenta ( Spanish for Bulletstrom )" Skullak countered as he fires 50 Balas shaped like bullets to cancel out the attacks and send 20 Balas towards Ichigo.
" Time for a speed boost Zanzō (残像 Afterimage ) " Ichigo stated as he creates 12 afterimages of themselves moving at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) and manages to outrun all the Balas
" Try dodging this ! " Skullak shouted as he fires a massive 10 foot diameter Cero towards Ichigo .
" Kuro Tsukigata ( 黒月形 Black Crescent Moon ) " Ichigo countered as he swings his sword 360 degrees to create a barrier like blast to deflect the attack.
Ichigo and Skullak get a mile apart from each other and chagre up their full power.
" Not bad however it's time i stop playing around " Skullak said to Ichigo as charges up a black Cero at the tip of his sword, but instead of firing it, he stabs his sword into it and the blade absorbs the Cero.
" Looks like he's about to use his full power ! " Ichigo said to himself as he charges up his Getsuga Tenshō.
" Let's see what you got Cero Hoji de Corte (Spanish for Zero Blade Slash) " Skullak chanted as he swings his sword horizontally firing a Cero similar to Ichigo's Getsuga Tenshō towards the Substitute Shinigami.
" Kuroi Getsuga(黒月牙; "Black Moon Fang") " Ichigo countered as he swings down his sword with both hands and fires a powerful Black Getsuga Tenshō .
Both blasts come towards each other and clash which causes an energy collision within the center .
" His attack is as powerful as my Cero Hoji de Corte . How can he have that much power ? " Skullak said to himself as he puts more power into his attack.
" It's now or never ! " Ichigo shouted as he pours more Reiatsu into his attack which then causes the blast to come more towards Skullak.
" Shit, it's too big to contain ! " Skullak said to himself as he sees Ichigo's Kuroi Getsuga overpower his Cero Hoji de Corte and his blast come towards him with Ichigo's blast.
" Take this ! " Ichigo shouted as he swings with full force which then sends the wave towards Skullak.
" NOOO ! " Skullask shouted as he tries to block but the blast already hits him.
which pushes Grimmjow back 4 miles away cutting through everything it it's path . The powerful explosion clears to reveal that Ichigo's Black Getsuga created a 4 mile long , 30 feet deep , 5 feet wide fissure.
" Cero Hoji de Corte (Spanish for Zero Blade Slash) " Skullak chanted as he swings his sword horizontally firing a black Cero similar to Ichigo's Getsuga Tenshō.
The attack collides with Skullak and pushes him back 4 miles away cutting through everything it it's path . The combined power of Skullak's Cero Hoji de Corte and Ichigo's Kuroi Getsuga creates a 1 mile radius explosion which leaves behind a immense crater 544 feet in diameter and 148 feet deep with a 40,000 ft high mushroom cloud above the battlefield. The blast created a mile long , 30 feet deep , 5 feet wide blast produced the yield of 13.9 Kilotons of TNT, nearly the same explosive force of the Little Boy bomb that leveled Hiroshima.
" Looks like i won again , now time to get to the top of Las Noches " Ichigo said to himself as his mask shatters and he dashes to the center of the sandlot where he sees 5 massive pillars going up to the top of the dome . Each pillar is 660 feet in diameter and as high as Las Noches itself.
Ichigo then floats 300 feet up in the air and then jumps onto one of the pillars and then airwalks 300 feet above the surface of the pillar sideways as if he was running up an invisible wall and then jumps up so fast that it appears that he's flying.
Meanwhile at Sector # 22, floor 694
Ulquiorra shows up holding Cirucci's body with Harribel holding Ninorta's corpse Loly who's holding Grimmjow, Menoly who's holding Dordoni , Aisslinger who's holding Gantenbainne and Demoura who's holding Tesla they arrive to see that the guards within Orihime's cell within the morgue have been killed off.
" This is bad , someone has already broken Orihime out ! " Ulquiorra said to Harribel.
" This isn't good ! " Harribel replied as she puts Ninorta's body into the morgue.
" Damn it , if we don't do something , master Thunderwitch will die " Loly shouted.
" They all need emergency treatment fast " Menoly stated.
" All of them are severely wounded . At this point, they're all going to die " Aisslinger replied.
" Calm down guys , head to the medical bay . I'll escort them all there. Ulquiorra, look for the escaped prisoner " Harribel commanded.
" Right ! " Ulquiorra replied as he looks around for Ibiki and Orihime.
Meanwhile from a distance. Orihime and Ibiki hide from Ulquiorra.
" This is bad . How are we going to escape from here ? " Orihime asked Ibiki while cloaked under Bakudō#26.
" We need to stay hidden for now ! " Ibiki answered.
Meanwhile at the Akatsuki Hideout
Pein and the other Akatsuki members finished sealing the Pseudo Jinchuriki Sora into the Statue of the Outer Demon Path with the dead body of Sora
" So we're finally finished ? " Deidara asked the leader.
" Yes Deidara , we're finished ! " Pein answered.
" That took far less Chakra than usual ! " Kisame stated.
" Because it's power isn't as high as the actual Tailed Beast, it only takes 1/3 the time to seal him but it's still mandatory to support the creation of this super weapon " Pein explained to the other Akatsuki members.
" With this super weapon, we can use it against an entire nation " Konan stated.
Suddenly Aizen comes to the Akatsuki in the form of a hologram.
" Hello dear Akatsuki ! " Aizen said to the group.
" What is it ? Is everything going to plan ? " Pein asked Aizen.
" Yes, it seems that the Substitute Shinigami has walked into my trap and took my bait as well as his friends " Aizen answered.
" What a fool, he really let his emotions get the better of him " Itachi stated.
" So what's the plan ? " Deidara asked.
" We got and capture him , with his power alone. We can easily create our superweapon and use that to threaten Konoha and the Land of Fire into handing us the 9 Tails " Pein explained to the group.
" Still how can a mere hollow within a Shinigami be even close to the power of a Bjuu ?" Kisame asked.
" That's because Ichigo's level of power is vastly untamed and hidden. He's still yet to fully master this immense power within, even his recent power increase is only statrching the surface of the vastly untapped reserve of power . If he fully masters his Zanpakutō alone, his power would be on the level of a Kage, combined with the power of the Hollow, he can potentially rival the Nine Tailed Fox " Aizen explained to the rest.
" So even if we don't have the Nine Tails alone, we can still create this weapon ? " Itachi asked them.
" Yep, having the Vizards captured as well would also add more fuel to the power of the statue, with Shukaku and Nine Tails captured, it would exceed the limits of just a country level weapon " Aizen answered.
" So his power is that great ? That explains why he was able to lock horns with the Nine Tailed Fox " Kisame stated.
" All the more reason , he must be captured ! " Pein replied.
Meanwhile at Karakura General Hospital.
Uryū is exhausted of his Reiatsu and falls to the floor drained from his training.
" Damn, i'm out of Reiatsu ! " Uryū said to Ryūken .
" Take a break for the rest of the day, you did well ! " Ryūken stated.
" Okay dad , what are you going to do now ? " Uryū asked his father.
" Return back to work ! " Ryūken answered.
" I see, i need to rest up for tomorrow to resume training " Uryū stated.
" Very well then ! " Ryūken replied as his son goes to bed and he pulls out his cell phone.
Meanwhile within Sector # 24 , 138th floor
Lisa struggles to fight Shāpuneru who is surround by a large 20 foot Adjuchas like imperfect Arrancar that takes the form of a beetle with a dome shell on his back with hide his insect wings with sharp claws and has a blade horn while another one is a 15 foot Adjucchas like grasshopper with bladed shape wings. Lisa dodges a lightning blast from one of them and dodges another one from Shāpuneru himself.
" Looks like your struggling against my swarm power " Shāpuneru said to Lisa as he has the hollows surround her.
" What are those things ? " Lisa asked the Arrancar.
" These are my Enjambre ( Spanish for Swarm), you think you can handle your own with them ? Each has 1/3 of my Reiatsu. You can't hope to beat all 3 of us " Shāpuneru arrogantly explained to Lisa.
" I see, then it's time i stop taking you so lightly then ! " Lisa replied as she charges up her Reiatsu and gets serious.
" Bring it on ! " Shāpuneru replied as he charges up a Cero as well as his Hollows.
" Time to end this Ryū Sōfunsai (竜ソー粉砕 Dragon Saw Smash ) " Lisa chanted as she spins around her Shikai and then twirls it around her body, then throws it like a rotating buzzsaw.
The Cero comes at Lisa but the spinning saw cuts through the blast and easily cuts the blast and cuts Shāpuneru and his hollows down with one attack. Lisa then transform her Shikai back to her sealed sword with mid exhaustion from her battle . Shāpuneru is revealed to survived but is seriously injured from his battle while his Hollow creatures have been cut in half.
" Damn it.. You got me ! " Shāpuneru stated as he struggles to stand.
" Time to finish this ! " Lisa shouted as she goes to finish off the Arrancar but then Yammy barges in and comes to attack Lisa.
" Finally, i found an opponent to fight ! " Yammy said to Lisa.
" Who are you ? " Lisa asked.
" I'm the 10th Espada Yammy Lirago ! " Yammy answered.
" I see, i guess you're going to be tougher than the rest ! " Lisa stated.
" Please, a whore like you is no match for me ! " Yammy replied.
Meanwhile at Sector #41, 137th floor
Hiyori struggles to withstand Bonbu's attacks. Hiyori struggles to withstand her Shikai from cutting herself as a Cerebro-shell forces her left arm to try stabbing herself with her own Shikai.
" What's wrong little girl ? Can't resist my power ? " Bonbu asked Hiyori as he tires to have her killing herself.
" What is this power ? " Hiyori asked him.
" This is my Controla ( Spanish for Control ), with this i control your entire body. If any of these hit your body, you're under my control. Those Shells link your nerves to my body and can control you remotely. I can only control up to four to five people at a time , you can't win " Bonbu explained to Hiyori.
" I see, you thin that's enough to beat me ? Not even close " Hiyori replied as she grabs the shell on her left arm and rips it off and then goes after Bonbu.
" I thought you would try something like this " Bonbu responded as he fires 5 shells at Hiyori but she dodges them .
" I got you Nadegiri #6 Suikawari (西瓜割, Watermelon Splitting ) " Hiyori chanted as she almost cuts Bonbu in half . She goes to slash the Arrancar however she then sees the shells behind her.
" La Bomba Concha ( Spanish for Bomb Shell ) " Bonbu chanted as he detonates all the shells with the explosive force of 2 trains clashing at 100mph which knocks back Hiyori.
" Damn it ! " Hiyori shouted as she struggles to move .
" Now time to take you over ! " Bonbu said to Hiyori as he launches a shell towards Hiyori .
" Oh no you don't , Hebi Sāba (蛇サーバSerpent Server ) " Hiyori shouted as she generates pink Reiatsu around her sword that moves in the form similar to a chainsaw that cuts through 5 shells with ease and with the shockwave alone cuts deeply into Bonbu's chest .
" What the hell ? How were you able to cut me with a shockwave ? " Bonbu asked as he holds onto his chest.
" It's simple my Shikai special ability Hebi Sāba (蛇サーバSerpent Server ) rotates my Zanpakutō around 2,000,000 times per second. It cuts through my opponents spiritual power weakening them . You see, the serrated edges of my blade combined with my Reiatsu increases the cutting power of my blade. It's like a chainsaw, the longer you clash blades with me, the more it would chip until it breaks and you're done for " Hiyori explained to Bonbu about her special ability.
" Shit ! " Bonbu shouted as he struggles to move.
" Now die ! " Hiyori shouted only to see 100 Calaveras and Rudbornn appear out of nowhere with their swords drawn.
" Stand down Bonbu, we'll handle her ! " Rudbornn said to the Arrancar while he draws his sword against Hiyori.
" Bring, it on, it won't matter if you have 100 Arrancars or 1,000, i'll kill all of you " Hiyori replied.
Meanwhile at Sector #10, 194th floor
Mashiro and Kikku Bakku evenly clash attacks with each other moving at highspeeds.
" Mashiro Kick " Mashiro chanted as she kicks Kikku upwards into the ceiling however the Arrancar recovers and goes for a counterattack.
" Cigarra Golpe ( Spanish for Locust Punch ) " Kikku countered as he comes at her with Reiatsu around his fist but Mashiro dodges the powerful punch.
" Mashiro Uppercut " Mashiro chanted as she goes to punch Kikku but the Arrancar insect dodges the attack.
" Cigarra Presa ( Spanish for Locust Barrage ) " Kikku shouted as he does multiple punches which sends Mashiro flying but she regains her balance.
" He's tough ! " Mashiro said to herself as she stands there fighting her foe.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 11
Kukaku is down on the ground with Borutā coming closer to her with his mini copter blades and his powerful release form .
" Looks like you reached your limit Shinigami ! " Borutā said to Kukaku as his copter blade hovers around the Arrancar .
" Damn it , this guy is strong ! " Kukaku said to herself as she goes to stand up.
" I told you, your lightning based Shikai was a bad match up for my wind based Resurrección " Borutā said to the Shiba clan survivor.
" Damn it ! " Kukaku shouted as she pulls out some bombs.
" Now die , Ondas de Choque ( Spanish for Shockwave) " Borutā chanted as he gathers his spiritual power together into his minicotper hovering around the path of his hands and then fires it at Kukaku which sends a massive wave of wind towards Kukaku.
" Shit ! " Kukaku shouted as she is hit by the massive windblast. The blast levels everything within a 600 foot radius which levels several pillars and walls.
" I did it ... I DiD IT ! " Borutā shouted only to see he hit another portable gigal.
" Behind you " Kukaku said to Borutā as he turns around and sees Kukaku throw fireworks at him which causes the Arrancar to get blinded.
" You think that's enough to beat me !" Borutā arrogantly taunted only to see Kukaku charge up a Kidō.
" Hadō # 29 . Bōru Bakudan(ボール爆弾 Fireball Bomb ) " Kukaku chanted as she hurls a fireball at Borutā' s fan which melts the copter blades and forces the Arrancar to retreat.
" Shit, she shot through my wind barrier with her fire Kidō and melted my fan . She knew fire was weak against fire because the flames are fueled by air. My blade has been destroyed " Borutā said to himself as he struggles to see only to see Kukaku behind him.
" Bakudō # 36 . Kuiokotei ( 杭を固定 Immobilizing Stake) " Kukaku chanted as she traps Borutā with 4 stakes forming a cage around him.
" What the hell ? " Borutā shouted as he struggles to break out the cage.
" Now time for me to do finishing blow " Kukaku shouted as she swings around her hammer charging up Reiatsu.
" I got to escape ! " Borutā said to himself.
" I got you now ! Rakuraiamega Shimetsuke ( 落雷雨が締め付け Bolting Lightning Rain ) " Kukaku chanted as she fires a massive wave of Lightning at Borutā .
" Damn it ! " Borutā shouted as he sees the blast hit him and the explosion levels everything within a 1,000 foot radius which vaporizes the Arrancar.
" Good riddance, time to get Orihime ! " Kukaku said to herself as she heads out to aid Orihime.
Las Noches Dome
9:00 P.M. Ichigo dashes up into the dome of Las Noches which is 5km above the sandlot. Ichigo swings his sword at the top of the skydome cutting through it and using his Reiatsu to cover his body as he punches through the dome layer which is a mile deep with 264 floors going through it from floor 726 to floor 990. Ichigo bursts out of the dome and arrives at the top of Las Noches dome which is 8 miles in diameter , 1.5 miles high from the base to top. Ichigo then looks around to see 5 towers each as high as the empire state building at the center and 2 miles around the main Las Noches building are 6 towers, each 2 miles in diameter and 9,900 feet high.
Ichigo looks up around him when he sees Skullak jump up from the 10 foot diameter , 1 mile deep hole caused by Ichigo. Skullak only received a light gash on his chest despite being hit by a Getsuga Tenshō however his Tattoo remains covered.
" What the hell ? You're still alive ? " Ichigo asked Skullak shocked to see him alive.
" Are you surprised ? That attack was very powerful. Had not for me using Negación Escudo ( Spanish for Neagtion Sheild ), i would of been sliced in half and you would of killed me before i got to release my sword " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" Release your sword ? " Ichigo asked .
" Did you honestly forget that i too had a Resurrección as well ? " Skullak answered.
" What the hell are you talking about ? I though you were already released , you're Reiatsu seemed to be as high as the 6th Espada " Ichigo stated.
" Do you think that all Espadas are ranked equally ? You're ignorance is immense. Allow me to teach you the vast difference between an Adjuchas level Espada and a Vasto Lorde Espada " Skullak said to the Substitute Shinigami .
" Vasto Lorde ? " Ichigo asked shocked to hear that word.
" All Espadas from 1 to 4 are Vasto Lorde, you might of been able to defeat all the Espadas from 5 to 10 however you stand no chance against any of the top 4 Espada and i'm about to prove that difference in power " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" You think you can stop me ? I'm not scared by your bluffs , i can take you down released form or not " Ichigo arrogantly taunted as he summons his Hollow mask again
" I see, you summoned your mask in defiance huh ? Allow me to teach you the gap in our powers, one that you can never hope to bridge " Skullak stated.
" I heard that bullshit before and i defeated the last person who think they were high and mighty " Ichigo replied.
" Battle, Gladiador (Spanish for Gladiator) " Skullak chanted as his body is covered with an intense amount of Reiatsu. The smoke clears up to reveal that the brown-haired Arrancar is now wearing white gladiator armor. His mask remains helmet becomes a full Gladiator helmet that covers the top of his head. He carries/holds a saw blade shield in his left arm and in his right hand he holds a large red Gladiator sword .
" What an immense spiritual power ! " Ichigo said to himself only to see Skullak in front of him.
" You're too slow Shinigami " Skullak said to Ichigo as Ichigo barely dodges the slash only to get the upper right half of his mask cut by the force of the slash with his right checkbone below his right eye lightly cut from the shockwave while Ichigo is knocked back 300 feet.
" You used Shunpo to narrowly evade my sword slash, wise move. Had not for that, i would of sliced your head in half like a melon " Skullak said to the Substitute Shinigami .
" Damn , he's too quick . I wasn't expecting this sudden boast of speed , how strong is he ? " Ichigo said to himself.
" Is that the full extent of your Bankai's speed ? It seems like you're moving in slow motion " Skullak asked the orange haired teen.
" Don't get cocky , i'm only getting stated " Ichigo answered as he dashes at Skullak.
Ichigo tries to slash Skullak but Skullak blocks the blade nonchalantly with his own sword while pushing back Ichigo who used two hands on his Bankai with his Hollow Mask. Ichigo swings with immense force against Skullak using both hands however Skullak effortlessly blocks with only one hand on his sword without moving an inch while the force uplifts the ground 60 feet high around Skullak. Ichigo struggles to push back Skullak however the former Espada barely bulges whereas Ichigo struggles to push him back.
" What's the deal with this guy ? I'm in my Hollow mask state, he shouldn't be able to overpower me this easily " Ichigo said to himself as he dodges a slash from Skullak however is pushed back 100 feet in the air.
" Come on, is this the best you can do ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" Not even close Zanzō (残像 Afterimage) " Ichigo chanted as he creates 12 afterimages of himself moving at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) and run circles around Skullak.
" You think i can't see through that ? " Skullak shouted as he slashes Ichigo across the shoulders and Ichigo staggers back barely dodging the blow.
" Shit. I can barely move my arms , he slashed me pretty deeply " Ichigo said to himself as he struggles to get his hands up.
" You're fast , however your speed is merely a fraction of my speed ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he stands there with his eyes closed.
" Don't take your eyes off me ! " Ichigo shouted as he comes at Skullak however Skullak blocks all his attacks easily with just his sword and knocks Ichigo into one of the 1,200 foot high tower .
" Saku Getsuga ( 裂く 月牙Ripping Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he fires a series of 20 Getsuga Tenshōs towards Skullak but he stands there not being fazed.
" Don't you have anything new to attack me with ? " Skullak asked as he stands there.
" Noko Kuroi Getsuga( 鋸黒月牙Sawing Black Moon Fang ) " Ichigo chanted as he slashes at Skullak's neck and tries to cut through it however the blade doesn't even dent Skullak's neck.
" You're blade is weakening ! " Skullak stated as Ichigo's blade starts to crack.
" Shit , how is it possible ? How can he be withstanding my blade without a starch let alone be cracking my blade ? " Ichigo said to himself as he sees the blade cracking more.
" I suggest you stop otherwise you might lose your blade! " Skullak said to Ichigo .
" Take this Kuroi Getsuga(黒月牙; Black Moon Fang) " Ichigo chanted as he swings down his sword with both hands and fires a powerful Black Getsuga Tenshō hitting Skullak's neck at point-blank range causing a massive explosion. The smoke clears up to reveal that Ichigo's hands are bleeding while Skullak isn't even starched.
" Finished already ? " Skullak said to Ichigo as he rubs his neck.
" Impossible, i been damaged by my attack . How can i be this horribly outclassed ? I'm in my Hollow Mask form and yet i can't do a damn thing to him " Ichigo said to himself as he stands there overwhelmed by Skullak's power.
" Now it's my turn ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he throws his shield at Ichigo . Ichigo struggles to see the attack coming.
" He threw his shield. Look carefully , if i can see it , i can dodge it ! " Ichigo said to himself as he barely dodges the shield that came a few inches close to hitting his neck and stands there .
" Escudo Sierra en Rotación ( Spanish for Spinning Saw Shield ) " Skullak chanted as he has his shield transforming into a moving buzzsaw which comes at Ichigo
" Damn it ! " Ichigo shouted as he blocks the shield with his Bankai however he's sent flying 1 mile away from the force of the shield strike. Ichigo stabs the ground with his Bankai to stop the dragback force and regain balance but not without being dragged another 300 feet away.
" Not bad but try another strike ! " Skullak said to Ichigo as he retracts his shield back like a boomerang.
" He retracted his shield like a boomerang ! " Ichigo said to himself as he tires to block the shield again but once again is dragged another mile away.
" You can't defeat me Ichigo, the strength difference between you and me is too great " Skullak stated as he then appears towards Ichigo grabbing his shield with both hands and puts it behind his shield.
" Shit, he's ridiculously fast ! " Ichigo said to himself.
" Picotoma ( Spanish for Spike Shot ) " Skullak chanted as he fires 5 spikes that hit both of Ichigo's shoulders , his left bicep , his right forearm and left hand.
" ARRRGH ! " Ichigo shouted in pain as he staggers back from the attack.
" Time to take him down ! " Skullak said to himself as he dashes at him with a giant broadsword to decapitate Ichigo .
" Kuroi Getsuga(黒月牙; "Black Moon Fang") " Ichigo chanted as he swings down his sword with both hands and fires a powerful Black Getsuga Tenshō which hits Skullak however the attack doesn't flinch the Arrancar . The powerful explosion clears to reveal that Ichigo's Black Getsuga created a mile long , 30 feet deep , 5 feet wide fissure. Skullak stands right next to Ichigo with his shield blocking the attack.
" Ampliar Lanza de Escudo ( Spanish for Extending Shield Spear ) " Skullak countered as he expands his spikes 10 feet long to impale Ichigo's chest, right leg, lower left abdomen and within the stomach.
" ARRGH ! " Ichigo shouted as he's heavily injured from the attack and falls to the ground.
" Looks like you're down Hokage but make sure that you stay down , i'll vaporize you to bits " Skullak said to Ichigo as he charges up a Cero dropping his sword.
" Damn it , i need to move ! " Ichigo said to himself as he gets back up and grabs the chain of his Bankai with his Getsuga Tenshō compressed into the blade and then twirls it around in a clockwise fashion spinning it around while still wearing his Vizard mask. Ichigo charges up Reiatsu around him which becomes a dense black and red spiral of energy that becomes an energy drill around him . He stops twirling around his Bankai as the energy forming around his sword.
" What the hell are you doing ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" Killing a scumbag like you ! " Ichigo answered as his Bankai becomes a large energy drill he holds with two hands as an aura of his Vizard mask appears over him and Ichigo's eyes glow blue while his eyeballs are black.
" You're badly injured, you think you have the power to take me out ? " Skullak asked.
" Taking you out with the same move i used to kill the 5th Espada" Ichigo replied as he holds on to his mask reforging it and then swings his sword with Getsuga Tenshō energy on it revealing his Bankai now looks like a black and red lance.
" Fine then ! " Skullak replied as he drops his shield and stands there.
" Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) " Ichigo chanted as he dashes towards Skullak.
The blast spins and builds up spiritual energy like a drill inflicting extreme piercing damages as the attack compresses into the body and all the spiritual power hits Skullak at once causing a massive 1 mile radius explosion forming a vertical spiraling black red Reiatsu wave shaped like a drill.
Meanwhile at Aizen's throne room
Aizen feels a bit of shaking within the throne with the cup of tea spilling over.
" What another nosy tremor we got here " Aizen said to Gin and Tōusen as he sees the explosion from his tower.
" At this rate, we'll need to seriously repair the fortress " Gin stated.
" Indeed ! " Tōusen replied.
" ... " Wonderweiss wondered as he walks away
Meanwhile at the Medical Bay , Sector # 13 , 570th floor
Rey is within the Hospital with Rey getting treated by the doctors within the facility. They all felt the shockwave .
" What a powerful Reiatsu ! " Rey said to Sheelal.
" It came close to matching that of a Vasto Lorde " Sheelal answered.
" Is that the power of the Shinigami attacking again ? " Mila asked.
" We would've stood no chance if we stood there long enough " Sun Sun answered.
" I just wish that Shinigami would die already ! " Apache stated.
" Don't worry , the Espadas would deal with him again ! " Rey replied.
Harribel shows up holding both Cirucci's body and holding Ninorta's corpse Loly who's holding Grimmjow, Menoly who's holding Dordoni , Aisslinger who's holding Gantenbainne and Demoura who's holding Tesla to the hospital.
" We got some people who need healing ! " Harribel said to the group.
Meanwhile at sector 22 floor 694
Orihime and Ibiki make it to the elevator only for them to be caught by Ulquiorra.
" Did you two think hiding yourselves would save you from me ?" Ulquiorra askes the two.
" Shit , we been caught ! " Ibiki said to Orihime.
" We can't give up ! " Orihime stated.
" You two are coming with me ! " Ulquiorra said to the group.
" No way in hell ! " Orihime replied.
" Do you think you can beat an Espada ? I'm far stronger than any of you " Ulquiorra explained to the two.
" You might be stronger than us but that doesn't mean shit, we'll escape this place " Ibiki stated as she draws her sword but before she can release her sword Ulquiorra appears behind her.
" Too slow ! " Ulquiorra replied as he swings his blade towards Ibiki's neck in an attempt to decapitate Ibiki.
" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime chanted as she deflects the explosive force back at Ulquiorra knocking back Ulquiorra a bit and protecting Ibiki from near death.
" Thanks Orihime ! " Ibiki said to Orihime.
" I'll hold him off, while you plan an escape ! " Orihime stated.
" Right ! " Ibiki replied as Orihime stands by protecting Ibiki.
" Get out of my way Orihime ! " Ulquiorra said to Orihime.
" No, i'm not going with you. I'm uniting with the one i love the most Koten Zanshun (孤天斬盾,Solitary Sacred Cutting Shield) " Orihime shouted as she releases all her hate in a powerful energy beam of energy instead of a small bullet like shot. The explosion hits Ulquiorra with enough force to level everything within a 1,200 foot radius explosion which overwhelms Ibiki.
" Damn Orihime, that was a good shot ! " Ibiki said to Orihime.
" That's not nearly enough to stop him , it's enough to give us some time to escape " Orihime said to Ibiki only to see Ulquiorra standing there with his barehand out.
Orihime's blast created a 62 foot diameter, 17 foot deep crater where Ulquiorra was standing generating the explosive force of 21 Tons of TNT which levels 637 cubic meters of ground within Las Noches. Despite the immense power of the blast, Ulquiorra stands in the air where the ground was once at completely unfazed.
" That blast of yours is nowhere close to blinding me Orihime. You would need to hit me with much more power than that " Ulquiorra said to Orihime only to see wind around him.
" Whisper Shizuka Kazeshibō : Muon Kasumidōmu (静か無音霞ドーム Silent Wind Death :Silent Mist Dome ) " Ibiki chanted as she engulfs everything within a 300 foot radius in a deep mist cloud which blinds Ulquiorra while she grabs Orihime and runs.
" It seems that this mist hides Reiatsu, those two are going to be tough to find however with such a huge place, they won't get far " Ulquiorra said to himself.
Meanwhile at Las Noches rooftop
The smoke clears up to reveal that everything within a 1 mile radius has been destroyed with an immense crater 544 feet in diameter and 148 feet deep,The explosion releases a massive mushroom cloud 40,000 feet high and burying everything within 12.5 mile radius in 3 feet of dirt. The blast produced the yield of 13.9 Kilotons of TNT, nearly the same explosive force of the Little Boy bomb that leveled Hiroshima. The smoke also reveals that Skullak is not only unharmed and standing over the crater which leveled 16 1/2 floors below the crater but also caught Ichigo's Tensa Zangetsu barehanded without any injury .
" Was that the best you got ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" Impossible , how can you tank my strongest attack without so much as a starch ? " Ichigo asked shocked to see Skullak standing there.
" This is pathetic , i'm guessing this is all your capable of doing. Too bad " Skullak answered as he then splits his sword into 4 different red blades.
" What are you doing ? " Ichigo asked him.
" This is my special ability of my Gladiador, it's called Cuatro Hojas del Gladiador ( Spanish for Four Blades of the Gladiator ) . My blade can spilt into 4 blades of the same power which quadruples the cutting power of my Resurrección " Skullak explained to Ichigo.
" Shit ! " Ichigo shouted as he goes to try striking Skullak however Skullak swings his blades and easily slashes Ichigo's Bankai into 4 different pieces and deeply cuts Ichigo with his powerful blades which forces him into reverting into his Shikai . The force of the slash sends Ichigo flying towards the eastern edge of Las Noches dome 4 miles from the center.
Ichigo in Shikai state has 4 deep slashes on his torso , two slashes within both shoulders and two deep slashes around the pectorals stretching out from upper chest to the pelvic area . Ichigo also suffers stabs within his chest 6 inches below the heart, right leg, lower left abdomen and within the stomach and puncture wounds both of Ichigo's shoulders , his left bicep , his right forearm and left hand. Ichigo's sleeves remain however his top half of his Shihakusho was ripped to shreds from the force of Skullak's slash. Ichigo struggles to get back up with only the hilt of his Zangetsu in his hand.
" Pitiful , you're barely a match for me. I'm done with you. At this point you're barely a match for me nameless Shinigami " Skullak said to Ichigo only for Ichigo to point his hilt at him.
" I'm not backing down , you're the strongest Espada aren't you ? I'll never surrender , all i have to do is beat you and i'll get Orihime back and win " Ichigo said to Skullak.
" Leader huh ? You're only half right ! " Skullak replied as he reveals his tattoo of his rank which is #101.
" 101# ? " Ichigo asked.
" I'm the former First Espada . I was demoted by the current first Espada , currently my power is only equal to that of the 4th of 3rd Espada " Skullak answered.
" So what you're saying is that ... " Ichigo asked only to be interrupted.
" There are 2 or 3 Espadas who are more powerful than me . I'm a Vasto Lorde Arrancar like all who serve the ranks between #1 and #4. The power gap between us and those #5 to # 10 is like heaven from earth. As you can see from the outcome of this battle that our power is worlds apart from what you're capable of doing . It's a good thing you came up here, All Espadas 1-4 are forbidden to release their swords inside Las Noches for we might do irreversible damage to the fortress " Skullak explained to Ichigo as he stands there.
" Who are you ? " Ichigo asked.
" My name is Skullak Tuma, care to tell me your name before you die Shinigami ? " Skullak asked Ichigo.
" My Name is Ichigo Kurosaki and i'm going to kick your ass " Ichigo replied as he struggles to get back up.
" Kurosaki ? Can he be related to the one that killed my father ? Grand Fisher reported that the man changed his last name to Kurosaki. Could this Shinigami be ... " Skullak thinks to himself only to see Ichigo get back up .
" I'll never give up ! " Ichigo replied as he charges at Skullak.
" Time to end this Kurosaki ! " Skullak responded as he's about to shoot a Cero at Ichigo but the Cero is countered by a Bala.
Shinji then appears in front of Ichigo with his base Zanpakutō and Hollow Mask.
" Shinji ! " Ichigo stated happy to see him.
" You really are an idiot Ichigo. Charging into enemy territory without any help. You would've died had not for me " Shinji explained to Ichigo.
Hachigen manages to arrive at the scene and goes to tend to Ichigo's wounds.
" Looks like you're a mess Ichigo ! " Hachigen said to Ichigo as he goes to heal him.
" You're not healing that Shinigami ! " Skullak stated as he charges up a Cero from his right hand.
" Collapse Sakanade (逆撫, Counter Stroke) " Shinji chanted while wearing his Hollow mask as he releases his Shikai. The pommel becomes a large ring . The first few inches of the blade are covered by an extension of the crossguard. Sakanade's blade is straight and slim with the tip ending in a slanted razor-like edge instead of being tapered to a point. There are five holes along the sword's length.
" Say goodbye , son of ... " Skullak shouted to be hit by a Bala from masked Shinji.
" Come at me bro ! " Shinji said to the Arrancar as he then sees the Arrancar charge at him.
" Try taking this ! " Skullak shouted as he tries to slash Shinji but his hit fails and Shinji cuts him from behind.
" Sakasama no Sekai (逆様の世界, Inverted World) " Shinji chanted as he spins around his Shikai revealing the mist he created.
" What are you doing ? " Skullak asked.
" I reversed your senses. Sakasama no Sekai (逆様の世界, Inverted World) creates a pink mist from my Shikai. Those who smell its pleasant aroma fall subject to an optical illusion. Up and down, left and right as well as forward and backward are opposite. It is not just the sense of direction that is changed; the opponent's eyesight, direction of incoming attacks, and injury locations are also inverted. Countering the damage from the inverted directions simply by processing it all within the mind is not possible. No matter how powerful the opponent even if one is accustomed to fighting in that particular way, your body will not adapt and will continue to fight by reflex, which causes it to continuously succumb to the power's effect. The effect of the inverted world can be targeted at or neglected from specific opponents, making it ideal for use in group fighting " Shinji explained to Skullak .
" I see, so you're the group that attacked here 20 years ago ? You used this same power to defeat Barragan before he became a Espada ? " Skullak asked him.
" Yep and we're back to finish the job ! " Shinji replied.
Meanwhile at Aizen's throne room
Aizen sits at his throne room when Kisuke and Yoruichi arrive within the throne room.
" Well , it's been a long time since we met each other ! " Aizen said to the two.
" Howdy guys, looks like you have something that we want ! " Kisuke replied.
" We're also here to get some payback for what you done to us 100 years ago " Yoruichi shouted.
" My my Aizen , we got some problems again ! " Gin stated with a sarcastic smile.
" What shall we do ? " Tōusen asked.
" It's best we engage with them in a fight " Gin answered.
" Where did Wonderweiss go off too ? " Tōusen asked.
" Don't know but i have a feeling he'll be much safer wherever he ran off too " Aizen replied.
" Time to get serious ! Maul Togeneko(刺突の猫爪Piercing Cat) " Yoruichi chanted as she releases her Shikai.
" Awaken Benihime(け紅姫, Crimson Princess) " Kisuke chanted as he releases his Shikai.
" Bankai:Kamishini no Yari (神殺鎗, God-Killing Spear) " Gin chanted as he extends his blade at Mach 500 speed but Yoruichi dodges the attack.
" Suzumushi Hyakushiki: Grillar Grillo (Spanish for Cricket Hundredth Ceremony: Chirping Cricket ) " Tōusen chanted as he release his hollow form.
" Shatter Kyōka Suigetsu (鏡花水月, Mirror Flower, Water Moon) " Aizen chanted as he releases his Shikai.
" We're here to rescue Orihime and leave , careful not to use too much Reiatsu. We're not here to defeat them after all " Kisuke said to Yoruichi.
" Don't worry, i should be able to handle these two, besides i doubt they'll level their fortress either " Yoruichi replied.
" Gin , try to compress your Bankai's range and avoid using 100% power. It would be a shame if you leveled Las Noches and Tōusen make sure you aim you Cero's away from any structures " Aizen stated.
" Right ! " Gin and Tōusen replied.
Meanwhile at sector 22 floor 695
Orihime and Ibiki advance further into the top of the rooftop when Ulquiorra appears in front of them .
" This is as far as you two go. Time to die Shinigami " Ulquiorra said to Ibiki as he uses his Reiatsu to weigh down Orihime and Ibiki.
" What an immense amount of Reiatsu ! " Ibiki said to herself as she falls to her knees.
" I can't move my body ! " Orihime said to herself as she falls to the ground with her face to the ground.
" Now that you two are down , time to finish off the biggest trouble maker " Ulquiorra said to the both of them as he draws out his Zanpakutō.
" Shit, i can't move. he's coming towards me. Am i really going to die ? " Ibiki said to herself as she struggles to stand up.
" Aizen has forbid me from killing you Orihime for you are far too useful to be killed off however your Shinigami friend is an exception. Time to die " Ulquiorra said to Ibiki as he's going to stab Ibiki.
" Tessai Hammerfist " Tessai countered as he smashes Ulquiorra's face with his fist and sends him flying 1,000 feet away.
" Tessai ! " Ibiki said to the muscular Shinigami.
" Both of you head to the rooftop , Ichigo is waiting for you there " Tessai said to the two.
" There's bound to be enemies there though ! " Ibiki replied.
" Don't worry, i got that handled Bakudō # 5. Gisei( 犠牲 Scapegoat) " Tessai chanted as he makes a copy of himself .
" Good idea but what if it's hit by a direct strike ? It would most likely disperse " Ibiki asked only to see a Bala come at her but the clone of Tessai uses Shunpo to block the blast with his body with only minor injuries.
" Unlike clones created by normal Shinigami, i can control them freely and they take more damage than a normal clone. They can also fight back " Tessai explained to the two as the clone goes to attack Ulquiorra who's standing back up.
" Hadō # 43. Sankashō (酸火傷Acid Burn) " Fake Tessai chanted as he shoots an Acidic blast from both hands at Ulquiorra but Ulquiorra manages to dodge the attack while the real Tessai appears behind him.
" Suplex " the real Tessai chanted as he picks up Ulquiorra from behind and slammed through the ground with the suplex creating a 10 foot diameter, 2 foot deep crater in the ground.
" Now let's head out quickly ! " Fake Tessai said to the girls as they run with him.
" Not bad Shinigami, that blow actually hurt " Ulquiorra said to Tessai as he nonchalantly wipes off blood from his nose.
" You're Hierro means nothing to the might of these muscles ! " Tessai replied as he flexes his muscles and then his shirt rips off . He then flexes his muscles showing off his rippling physique which would be fitting to a professional wrestler or heavyweight boxer.
" I see, do you think mere brute strength is enough to beat an Arrancar let alone an Espada ? How foolish " Ulquiorra asked Tessai as he draws his sword towards him.
Meanwhile at tower # 1 of Las Noches
Rose is going up one of the 6 massive 2 mile diameter ,9,900 foot high towers and has reached the top when he sees an axe come towards him and evades it .
" Whoa , that was too close. Any closer and i might of got some split ends " Rose said to himself only to see Baraggan.
" You're my opponent ? How ludicrous , i get a faggot for an opponent " Baraggan said to Rose with a dismissive tone.
" I'm not a faggot , i'm gay and i don't appreciate old men who have some skeletons in their closet " Rose explained to Baraggan.
" How dare you call me a homo ? I had a harem of women back when i ran Hueco Mundo. I'm going to teach you to respect me as not only your King but as your god " Baraggan stated as he swings his axe creating a shockwave that Rose dodges with his highspeed movement.
" He's strong but he lacks elegance with his fighting style. I need to use my beautiful art to attack him " Rose said to himself as he then goes to strike Baraggan
" What is he thinking ? " Baraggan asked himself only to see Rose form his attack.
"Arpeggio (アルペジオ, Arupejio) " Rose chanted as he levitates his Zanpakutō and scabbard in a cross shape in front of him. Rose moves his fingers as if playing a piano which accompanied by the sound of piano keys being played. A wire appears and wraps around Baraggan.
" What ? " Baraggan asked.
" Now that i got you trapped, time to get you " Rose answered as he charges towards Baraggan.
" Senescencia ( Spanish for Senescence ) " Baraggan countered as he drastically slows down time around him making Rose move 100 times slower and allowing himself to breaking from Rose's ropes and appear behind him with Sonído and grab Rose shoulder and break it with the power of his time dilation.
"ARRGH ! " Rose shouted as he feels his left arm numb.
" Confused about my power ? I'm the Espada that represents Old Age " Baraggan said to Rose.
" Old Age ? " Rose asked.
" Old age, meaning time. The mightiest and most absolute power of death. It stands in the way of every living the Espada who represents aging, i'm able to dilate time around me, thereby reducing the speed of any target that comes near me and making any efforts at attacking me useless and thus has sufficient enough time to counter them. The ability also allows me to accelerate the age of whatever i touch , causing the appropriate damage that comes with aging " Baraggan explained to Rose.
" I see, then i'll just have to stay distant of you and avoid your touch at all cost then Play Kinshara(金沙羅,Golden Sal Tree ) " Rose chanted as he releases his Shikai and swings it at Baraggan but Baraggan uses time dilation to slow down the attack and evade it.
" How arrogant. I mere bug telling me what i can't do is spitting in the face of god Rot Arrogante ( Spanish for Arrogant ) " Baraggan chanted as he holds out his axe in front of him with its axe-head pointing downwards and declares the release. Everything around him rots away .
Meanwhile at tower # 2 of Las Noches
Kensei is going up one of the 6 massive 2 mile diameter ,9,900 foot high towers and has reached the top floor when he sees an Cero come towards him and Kensei evades the blast.
" Great, i was hoping not to bump into any intruders. What a drag " Starrk said to himself only to see Kensei come towards him.
" You think that sneak attack would be good enough ? You need to do better than that " Kensei stated only to have his sword blocked.
" I can't believe i'm the one stuck with a tough opponent like you " Starrk said to Skullak.
" Quit your complaining Starrk and fight him " Lilynette shouted as she hits him in the head.
" Okay , okay ,i guess i don't have much of a choice do i " Starrk replied as he sees Kensei coming at him.
Kensei comes at Starrk with a series of punches however Starrk dodges the punches and counters with a Cero which Kensei evades with Shunpo.
" Try dodging this ! " Kensei shouted as he punches the air creating a shockwave but Starrk dodges the punch.
Starrk and Kensei clash attacks with each other again . Stark does 40 high-speed slashes while Kensei dodges the punches using his boxing stance to swirl from the punches. The former 9th division captain comes at Starrk with a rising uppercut but the brown hair Arrancar dodges the strike . Kensei throws a series of 30 fast punches in 5 seconds but Starrk manages to dodge them.
" Gemelos Sonído (Spainsh for Sound Twins) " Starrk chanted as he creates 12 afterimages that become clones using his speed.
" What's this ? " Kensei asked.
" Gemelos Sonído (Spainsh for Sound Twins) is created by adding in a few extra steps . By doing that, i can create a clone of myself " Starrk explained to the Vizard.
" I see , however that magic trick isn't going to be enough " Kensei stated.
" How about this ? " Starrk asked as all the clones fire Ceros without any warning from body gestures or any charge time but Kensei barely manages to dodge them but barely.
" Shit, he didn't even charge up or used a handsgin or any body movement . He can fire Ceros that fast ? " Kensei asked himself.
" Not bad , you manage to dodge that blast " Starrk said to Kensei as his 12 clones surround Kensei.
" How powerful are you ? " Kensei asked.
" I'm the first Espada , Coyote Starrk " Starrk answered.
" That explains everything , looks like there's no holding back with you Blast Away Tachikaze ( 断風 Severing Wind ) " Kensei chanted as he uses his Hollow Mask and Shikai to fight Starrk.
Stark and his afterimages blast Ceros at Kensei but Kensei evades them with ease with his Vizard mask and Shikai.
" Kūkiha(空気刃 Air Blades) " Kensei chanted as he swings his blades cutting all the clones apart with ease.
" He's strong ! " Lilynette said to Starrk .
" I guess i need you at this moment ! " Starrk stated.
" Fine , i'll lend you your power ! " Lilynette replied as she goes towards Starrk and Starrk grabs her head.
" What are you doing ? " Kensei asked.
" Kick About Los Lobos ( Spanish for The Wolves ) " Starrk chanted as he merges with Lilynette with blue Reiatsu surrounding the both of them and releasing their sword.
Starrk now wields two ornamental pistols, each of them the same length. These pistols are actually Lilynette, as both pistols appear to house her physically as well as her consciousness . Part of Lilynette's mask appears on his head, stretching from the back of his head around to the eyepiece on his left eye, with the flame pattern changing to emerge from the eyepiece and follow the mask fragment around to the back of his head while the mask itself is connected, by two chains, around his right eye. His Arrancar outfit changes drastically as well; his upper body is covered in a grey fur-lined jacket over a double-breasted vest, while his legs are covered in some kind of dark skin-tight pants with grey knee-high fur leggings covering his lower legs, and his arms are covered in some kind of gray elbow-length fur armbands that appears to end at his wrists. There are also ribbon-covered bandoleers emerging from his upper back and disappearing into his upper forearms. With fur-covered holsters, Starrk's released form resembles a Wild West gunslinger.
" What the hell ? You two merged ? " Kensei asked.
" The two of us are one. When we evolved from Hollow into Arrancar, we divided the Hollow power that the other Arrancar divided between their bodies and their swords into two bodies. When we once again become one, our power is released " Starrk explained to Kensei as he points his gun at Kensei.
" I have a feeling that things are getting tougher ! " Kensei said to himself.
Meanwhile at tower # 3 of Las Noches
Love is going up one of the 6 massive 2 mile diameter ,9,900 foot high towers and has reached the top floor when he sees Harribel stand there with Love holding his sealed sword.
" You're advancement ends here Shinigami " Harribel said to Love as she draws out her sword.
" You're a fine babe, too bad we have to fight each other ! " Love replied as he goes to attack Harribel.
Love clashes swords with each other. Harribel comes at him with a vertical slash but the Vizard uses a two-handed parry to push back Harribel with a horizontal slash and swings his sword to try slashing down the 3rd Espada but Harribel counters with her own cross slash and goes for a bat swing slash but Love blocks the attack.
" You're pretty strong ! " Harribel said to Love.
" So what rank are you ? " Love asked the female Espada.
" I'm the 3rd Espada , Tia Harribel " Harribel answered as she unzips her jacket and reveals her tattoo.
" Damn, those are some nice jugs you have " Love stated as he stares at her large jugs.
" Shut up, i didn't do this to please you. Ola Azul (Spanish for Blue Wave) " Harribel chanted as she pulls her sword back as it gathers yellow spiritual energy within the hollow portion of her blade and launches it towards Love and pushes him back 500 feet away burning Love a bit.
" Damn , that hurt ! " Love shouted as he feels on his shoulder.
" Pistola de Espada Azul ( Spanish for Blue Sword Gun ) " Harribel chanted as she fires 23 shots from her sword, this time it's blue lasers which Love manages to dodge .
" No more games Crush Down Tengumaru (天狗丸, Long-Nosed Goblin) " Love chanted as he releases his Shikai and puts on his Hollow Mask.
" Looks like you process immense power however, allow me to show you my power Destroy Tiburón (Spanish for Shark)" Harribel replies as she holds her Zanpakutō with an outstretched arm in front of her with the blade pointing down and declares the release command.
Meanwhile at Sector #10, 194th floor
Mashiro manages to defeat her opponent Kikku Bakku with her Hollow Mask power. Mashiro stands there with some injuries.
" Who's next ? " Mashiro asked around only to dodge a punch from Wonderweiss.
" ... " Wonderweiss said to Mashiro.
" Cool, i get to fight another foe , this time with my mask " Mashiro cheerfully stated as she gets into her fighting stance.
" AUUUUUUURG ! " Wonderweiss yawned as he charges up a Cero in his mouth.
" Mashiro Drop Kick ! " Mashiro shouted as she does a dropkick sending Wonderweiss flying.
" ... " Wonderweiss moaned as he shakes off the kick and kicks Mashiro through a wall.
" Bring it on ! " Mashiro shouted as she goes to fight Wonderweiss by grabbing him and chokeslamming him through 5 floors creating a 100 foot deep, 10 foot diameter hole through the ground .
" AUUUG ! " Wonderweiss shouted as he fires a Cero towards Mashiro but Mashiro block taking only minor burn damage, he then jumps up and throws Mashiro 1,000 feet back sending her through several dozen walls within the sector. Wonderweiss then comes towards her but Mashiro recovers.
" Mashiro Super Cero ! " Mashiro chanted as she fires a very fast lime-green Cero by kicking in the air towards Wonderweiss .
" ..." Wonderweiss countered as he fires a Cero which collides with Mashiro's and creates a massive 1,000 foot radius explosion which engulfs the area in smoke blinding Wonderweiss.
" Mashiro Super Punch ! " Mashiro shouted as she does a powerful punch in midair which knocks Wonderweiss into the lobby floor .
Wonderweiss gets up and stares at Mashiro .
" ... " Wonderweiss said to Mashiro.
" You're going to be fun to fight ! " Mashiro said to Wonderweiss only to hear an explosion.
Meanwhile within Sector # 24 , 1st floor
Lisa with her Vizard Mask and her sealed Zanpakutō stand facing off with Released Yammy who's struggling to stand with slashes all over his body .The fighting with both Lisa and Yammy leveled 138 floors and leveled the entire sector area below the 138th floor. Yammy has massive slashes around his chest and all his fingers gone with his Jaw cut up.
" Is that the best you can do ? You're seriously starting to bore me " Lisa arrogantly taunted.
" Un...UN UNFORGIVABLE ! " Yammy shouted as he releases a massive wave of Reiatsu 500 feet in diameter that engulfs the sky .Yammy emerges only now in the form of massive 165 foot high monster staring down at Lisa.
" So you have transformed ? " Lisa asked.
Yammy's damaged mask is restored and all previous injuries are healed. The black-piston like protrusions on his back become more like extensions of his vertebrae and he gains two massive horns on his back. He also gains multiple horns on his head including ones covering his lower jaw, as well as crack like markings framing his eyes. His arms are positioned in knuckle-walk position and his legs are hairy, ending with short, stubby toes; thus giving an ape-like appearance. His tail also becomes more hairy and ape like, losing its large club. His extra sets of legs are lost as well.
" The name of my resurrection is Ira. I'm a beast of Rage! Now, go ahead. Piss me off more, more, more... It's only gonna make the way die all the more messy "Yammy shouted as he goes to attack Lisa but Lisa dodges the punch which destroys everything within a 3,000 foot radius leveling 150 floors.
" Shit, he's become much stronger ! " Lisa said to herself as she then sees another punch coming towards her.
" Die bitch ! " Yammy shouted as he smashes more stuff with his powerful enraged form almost hitting Lisa.
" Damn . is it me or did he suddenly become faster ? " Lisa said to herself as she dodges another blow from Yammy.
" You can't beat me bitch, i'm the #0 Espada " Yammy shouted as he shoots 5 Balas towards Lisa but Lisa dodges them as she watches the blasts go through walls within Las Noches.
" No more games, time to cut you to ribbons with my power again Nadegiri #`12 Senmai Oroshi (千枚卸1,000 Sheets of Paper Wholesale) " Lisa chanted as she does hundreds of high-speed slashes however Lisa didn't even put a starch on the massive Arrancar in his new form.
" Pathetic , that was your best ? HAHAHAHAHAHA! " Yammy laughed.
" Shit ! " Lisa shouted .
" My turn ! " Yammy shouted as he hits Lisa with direct punch to the face and with one blow he shatters Lisa's Vizard Mask and sends her flying several miles into the sandlot.
Lisa struggles to get up with blood coming down from her face.
" His blow is heavier than a skyscraper, had not for my Vizard Mask, he would of cleanly decapitated me with that punch " Lisa said to herself as she resummons her hollow mask while Yammy comes towards her smashing through the hole.
" Now time to end this ! " Yammy shouted as he does a jumping punch towards Lisa.
" Smash Haguro Tonbo (鉄漿蜻蛉, Iron Drink Dragonfly) " Lisa chanted as she releases her Shikai which cuts deeply into Yammy's right wrist.
" ARRGH ! " Yammy shouted as he holds onto his wrist.
" Don't count me out you brute ! " Lisa replied as she stands back up to fight Yammy with her full power.
Meanwhile at Sector #41, 137th floor
Hiyori and Rudbornn hear explosions throughout Las Noches Hiyori with her Shikai killed over 1,000 Calaveras easily. Rudbornn is within his release form and is impressed by Hiyori's skill.
" Come on, is that all you got ? " Hiyori asked Rudbornn.
" Allow me to show you my best technique Los Guerreros Calaveras ( Spanish for Skull Warriors ) " Rudbornn said to Hiyori as he creates 10 Calaveras but the Calaveras have bullhorns and spiked shoulder pads with Samurai armor on their body.
" What is this ? " Hiyori asked him.
" These are Los Guerreros Calaveras ( Spanish for Skull Warriors ). The soldiers you been fighting before were all on the level of a 3rd set or Vice Captain, each of the skull warriors here are half as powerful as a Captain. Each of their swords are made especially to pierce even released Espada Hierro. I created this in case any of the Espada above me one day try to go against orders , i wonder how would a human fare without the ability to harden their skin " Rudbornn explained to Hiyori as he has his men move at 3,666.6 ft/sec (2,500 MPH) catching Hiyori off-guard.
" Damn, they move much faster than the last guys ! " Hiyori said to herself .
" Los Guerreros Calaveras ( Spanish for Skull Warriors ) have blades that channel Reiatsu into sonicwave which allows them to do both external and internal damage , there's nothing that cut block the cutting power of their swords " Rudbornn said to Hiyori as he has his men chase after Hiyori with their blades.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 12
Kukaku walks around the dark area of the sector which is out due to the massive quakes of Reiatsu occurring around the palace when she encounters Kaien.
" It can't be ! " Kukaku said to herself as she looks at Kaien.
" Howdy sister ! " Kaien said to Kukaku causing her to look at him and think about what Sasori said to her.
2 days ago
Kukaku's pov
I clashed with one of the members of the Akatsuki Sasori. He was the weakest of the group yet he was powerful enough to hold his own with 3 Vice Captains, myself and Chad .
" Not bad, you almost had me with that punch. You're everything your brother described you to be " Sasori said to me.
" What do you know about my brother ? " i asked Sasori.
" It's like i said, he now works with Lord Aizen " Sasori answered as he blocks my sword slash .
" That's impossible, he died 40 years ago " i stated as i avoided a slash from Sasori.
" Think of it Kukaku, 40 years is plenty of time for a reincarnated soul. Us Shinobi while powerful enough to fight you Shinigami and Hollows are still limited to a normal humans lifespan " Sasori explained to me.
" But you guys are from a different world, how is it possible a human soul could even be reborn there much less have the memories of it's past life ? " i questioned the red-haired Shinobi.
" You seriously have to ask that ? Have you seen what we're capable of doing ? We resurrected Grand Fisher from the dead and even broke Shrieker from hell and radically increased their powers. Nothing is off limits to us Shinobi , especially with Sōsuke Aizen processing the Hōgyoku now " Sasori replied as he gets his distance from me.
" You bastards, what did you do to my brother ? " i shouted.
" We didn't do anything, it's more like what Lord Aizen did 40 years ago " Sasori replied.
" What are you talking about ? " i asked him.
" Did you think him being processed by a hollow was a coincidence ? The hollow Metastacia was created by Lord Aizen to test the limits of his powers with the Hōgyoku he made base on Kisuke's version. When Kaien, processed by Metastacia was killed in this world, Aizen purposely manipulated the reincarnation of his soul and now he's among our ranks in the Akatsuki and Espada " Sasori stated only to get a cut on his check .
" YOU BASTARDS! THIS IS UNFORGIVABLE ! Using my brother as a plaything, you Shinobi and Arrancar have no honor and i'm about to avenge my brother big time " i shouted a i released energy from my Zanpakutō in anger.
Present day
3rd person pov
" So you're really alive ? It's true what that Akatsuki said to me " Kukaku said to Kaien.
" It's true, what you see is what you get my sister ! " Kaien replied.
" So you're now an Espada ? " Kukaku asked Kaien.
" I don't see what's wrong with it " Kaien answered.
" What are you taking about ? " Kukaku asked him.
" Being within the Espadas made me realize that the Hollows and Arrancars that we been fighting as Shinigami aren't the enemies. The Gotei 13 and the Soul Society are the enemies " Kaien answered.
" No, don't tell me that they brainwashed you ? " Kukaku asked Kaien.
" Brainwashed ? I been brainwashed my entire life by the Soul Society. The Arrancars care about their people, even the weak are treated well within Las Noches and we all descend from a system of nobility and monarchies and most Arrancars come from Major and Minor houses. Shinigami on the other hand neglect their poor, starving and weak and don't give a shit about the suffering of those within the Rukongai " Kaien explained to Kukaku.
" What are you talking about ? The Soul Society have fought hard to protect all souls and protect the Rukongai . Hollows and Arrancars kill and eat their other to get stronger, they attack human souls and eat them . You have lost your mind Kaien " Kukaku stated.
" Aizen is trying to help the lesser Hollows evolve back to their human selves. Turning a Hollow to an Arrancar would help them overcome the monstrous desires they gain as Hollows. He is doing something that the Soul King could never do or never cared to do in his life , he's ushering in a Utopia " Kaien replied.
" Utopia ? Aizen plans to kill thousands of humans just to achieve his goal " Kukaku said to her brother.
" So what ? Look how many people have died under the Soul King. Why is it that thousands die worldwide within the human world from disease ? Why is it that millions die from wars throughout history ? Do you think the Soul King really cares for us ? The Soul Society has been attacked several times in the last 2,000 years and yet not once has the Royal Guard helped us. Aizen has helped Hollows become human again, he is the god of this world and the future of Las Noches " Kaien explained to Kukaku.
" Kaien , i have no choice but to force you out of your hypnosis that Aizen placed you under " Kukaku replied as she draws her sword.
" And i have no choice but to awaken your eyes to the truth Kukaku " Kaien responded as he draws his sword.
" Smash Raimeihamā (雷鳴ハマーThunderclap Hammer ) " Kukaku chanted as she releases her Shikai.
" Rankle the Seas and the Skies Nejibana (捩花, Twisted Flower)" Kaien chanted as he releases his sword.
Meanwhile at Las Noches rooftop
Ichigo is being healed by Hachigen of all his wounds while Shinji and Skullak clashes attacks with each other.
" Hang in there Ichigo ! " Hachigen said to Ichigo as Ichigo's wounds heal.
" Damn it . I can't believe how outclassed i was , i was a fool to charge in head on by myself. I was too arrogant " Ichigo stated in a depressed tone.
" Don't worry Ichigo, thanks to you, we can save her easier! " Hachigen replied as Ichigo's wounds heal up.
" I guess you're right , still i wasn't expecting the top Espadas to be this powerful. I was hoping that i would be able to take them all down " Ichigo stated.
" You did better than any Vice Captain level Vizard could do. You managed to defeat 5 Espadas by yourself, Tessai should come with Orihime and when he does, we can leave here " Hachigen replied as they watch Shinji and Skullak fight.
Meanwhile Skullak and Shinji clash. Skullak sees that the whole Las Noches area has been reversed with Las Noches appearing to be above the sky and the sky now part of the ground. Skullak goes to slash Shinji in front of him only to see Shinji is behind the Arrancar however he blocked the hit via reaction time.
" His reaction speed is improving , can he be getting used to my attack pattern ? " Shinji said to himself.
" What a powerful ability . I'm forced to fight him by reversing the direction of my blade and trying to predict where to strike next . Damn this power " Skullak said to himself as he blocks another blow from Shinji only to get slashed across the back lightly.
" Can you fight when up and down, left and right, front and back, and the direction you take damage from are all mixed up inside your head? No, you can't. Nobody can. The stronger you are the more used you are to combat, the more likely your body is to react only to what you see! " Shinji explained to Skullak.
" Escudo Sierra en Rotación ( Spanish for Spinning Saw Shield ) " Skullak chanted as he has his shield transforming into a moving buzzsaw which comes towards Shinji but the real Shinji is behind him charging up a Cero .
" Goodbye ! " Shinji said to Skullak as he fires a Cero towards Skullak but he knocks back the Cero and retracts his shield back like a boomerang.
" I was able to counter him that time. Maybe there's a way around this after all " Skullak said to himself.
" He really is getting better at countering my movements " Shinji said to himself as he sees Skullak go for an attack.
" Picotoma ( Spanish for Spike Shot ) " Skullak chanted as he fires 5 spikes that come at the illusion of Shinji which hits the opposite area of where Shinji is at.
" He's open ! " Shinji said to himself as he goes to strike Skullak only to see a Cero charging up with his left hand point at him from the right side of the body .
" Got you ! " Skullak said to Shinji as he fires a Cero towards him .
" Shit, he was able to time that hit ! " Shinji said to himself as he struggles to block the Cero with both hands on his Shikai only to see Skullak turn around with his shield.
" Ampliar Lanza de Escudo ( Spanish for Extending Shield Spear ) " Skullak countered as he expands his spikes 10 feet long however Shinji manages to dodge the hit and push back Skullak with the force of his own Cero.
" He's going to be very tough. It's no wonder he was able to easily beat Ichigo, at this point, i'll need my Bankai but i have to hold back . If i don't, then Orihime would probably be killed as well as everyone in Las Noches " Shinji said to himself.
" I been holding back , if i went full power, this fortress would be leveled " Skullak said to himself.
Meanwhile near the towers outside within the dome. Yourichi is fighting both Gin and Tōusen in a 2 on 1 handicap match.
" Suzumushi Nishiki: Benihikō (清虫二式紅飛蝗, Cricket 2nd Movement: Crimson Flying Locusts ) " Tōusen chanted as he rains down swords at Yoruichi from his wings but Yoruichi manages to dodge the attack.
" I didn't know you can use Shikai attacks within your Hollow form " Yoruichi said to Tōusen.
" In my Evolución form, i fuse with my Zanpakutō and my hollow power and can use both at once " Tōusen explained to Yoruichi.
" I see, so you really have sold out . You helped ruined lives and broke the law , because of you, i was forced to leave Soifon for a 100 years. I will not stand for this injustice , especially for one who is as corrupt you . One who deceives and abandons their friends" Yourichi explained to Tōusen.
" You said that deceiving my friends and subordinates and pursuing power was corruption . So I will ask you this. A person enters into an organization for the purpose of revenge and in so doing, forgets his purpose amidst a life of peace and harmony. Isn't his pandering to that organization also corruption? To my blind eyes it seems that it very much is . My eyes can only see one path and that is the path with the least amount of bloodshed. Justice, is always there, and the path I follow, is justice " Tōusen explained to Yoruichi.
" Betrayal is not justice ! " Yoruichi shouted as she dashes towards Tōusen and goes to punch the former Captain in the face.
" Bankai:Kamishini no Yari (神殺鎗, God-Killing Spear)" Gin chanted as he extends his blade 8.1 miles away from the fortress without cutting anything within Las Noches in 0.08 seconds moving at 563,200 ft/sec ( 384,000 MPH ) but Yoruichi moves at 594,000 ft/sec ( 405,000 MPH ) to dodge it barely .
" Damn, that was close ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
" Tōusen isn't your only foe ! " Gin stated.
" Suzumushi Saishū Shinoringu: ( 最終的な運動清虫死のリング Cricket Final Movement: Ring of Death ) " Tōusen chanted as he generates a sword around his hand while in his insect form and generates white energy around his sword and charges at Yoruichi.
Yoruichi dodges the attack and evades the attacks but the insect hollow captain comes at her again with another attack.
" You got to be faster than that ! " Yoruichi said to Tōusen.
" Butō: Renjin (舞踏連刃, Dance (Step) Serial Blade) " Gin chanted as it repeats the action of extending and subsequently contracting Kamishini no Yari multiple times in rapid succession but Yoruichi manages to all the blows.
" Taketonbo (竹蜻蛉, Bamboo Dragonfly ) " Yoruichi countered as she does an axe kick which smacks Gin to the ground.
" Damn, she's really fast. I barely had the time to retract my blade ! " Gin said to himself as blood comes from his forehead.
" You're mine !" Yourichi shouted as she goes for a flying punch dashing towards Gin.
" Suzumushi Nishiki: Benihikō (清虫二式紅飛蝗, Cricket 2nd Movement: Crimson Flying Locusts ) " Tōusen chanted as he hits Yoruichi with hundreds of swords while she's in midair.
" ARRGH ! " Yoruichi shouted as she falls to the ground.
" Kamishini no Yari (神殺鎗, God-Killing Spear)" Gin chanted as he extends his blade going through Yoruichi but it's revealed to be an afterimage.
" Utsusemi (空蝉, Cicada, referencing their molting) " Yoruichi chanted as she appears behind Tōusen and cuts Tōusen in half however it was revealed to be a clone.
" Butō Kamishini no Yari " Gin chanted as he place both hands on his sword and places the Zanpakutō's hilt squarely to the center of his chest and launches powerful strike but Yoruichi blocks the attack with her claws but is pushed back to the west end of the dome 8 miles away.
" La Mirada (Spanish for The Gaze) " Tōusen chanted as he charges a lime-green Cero in front of both of his eyes. The two Ceros are generated separately, but fuse together before firing, similar to the Cero Sincrético towards Yoruichi but Yoruichi dodges the attack as the Cero hits the ground and the Cero travels 15 miles away and creates a 4,000 foot radius explosion.
" That was far too close for comfort ! " Yoruichi said to herself as she stands there a bit worn out.
" Not bad but try keeping up with this ! Butō: Kagami-ken (舞踏鏡剣, Dance Step Mirror Blade) " Gin chanted as he Gin sweeps Kamishini no Yari in an arc, creating numerous clones of his Bankai blade similar to Kaname Tōusen's Suzumushi Nishiki: Benihikō all of them extend at the same rate of speed as Butō: Renjin which Yoruichi struggles to evade .
" Shit, there are too many attacks ! " Yoruichi said to herself as she gets a small cut on her left shoulder.
" Take this Suzumushi Nishiki: Benihikō (清虫二式紅飛蝗, Cricket 2nd Movement: Crimson Flying Locusts ) " Tōusen chanted as he hits Yoruichi with hundreds of swords while she's in midair and both attacks crush her in between.
" Did we get her ? " Gin asked Tousen only to see Yoruichi behind them.
" Hadō #31. Shakkahō (赤火砲, Red Fire Cannon) " Yoruichi countered as she hits Gin with a powerful blast knocking him down.
" Gin ! " Tousen shouted only to see 15 clones of Yoruichi.
" Way of Onmitsu, 2nd of the Shihō Riarutai Kopīga (リアルReal Body Copy ) " Yoruichi chanted as she creates 15 clones of herself .
" Suzumushi Daigakushō:Kuriketto no Kage (クリケット第3楽章クリケットの影 Cricket 3rd Movement : Cricket Shadow ) " Tōusen chants as he creates 15 clones of himself.
Meanwhile at sector 22 floor 695
Tessai and Ulquiorra clash attacks with each other. Ulquiorra comes at Tessai with a punch but Tessai blocks with his right forearm. Ulquiorra goes to punch Tessai but Tessai catches his hand however Ulquiorra kicks him in the face and sends him flying 200 feet away. Ulquiorra shoots a Bala but the former Kidō captain dodges the attack and goes to kick Ulquiorra but the 4th Espada blocks with his other hand.
They exchange punches with each other and kicks . Tessai comes at Ulquiorra with a sweeping kick but Ulquiorra uses Sonído to gain his distance and comes at Tessai's chest with his hand but Tessai catches it and throws Ulquiorra into the wall . Tessai comes at him but Ulquiorra counters by knocking Tessai back with a high kick and then jumps into the air to charge up energy.
" Bala " Ulquiorra chanted as he fires a barrage of Balas at Tessai blinding the former Captain with the smoke.
" I can't see ! " Tessai said to himself only to see Ulquiorra inf front of him and gets impaled by Ulquiorra's right hand.
" Got you ! " Ulquiorra said to Tessai only to see he hit an illusion.
" Bakudō # 20 . Hakufuku (白伏,White Crawl) " Tessai chanted as he muddles the consciousness of Ulquiorra however the Espada manages to negate it.
" Is that the best you can do ? These petty illusions won't fool me" Ulquiorra asked as he stabs the real Tessai in the chest.
" How could you see through my Kidō ? " Tessai asked Ulquiorra .
" Pesquisa( Spanish for "Inquiry") is an Arrancar's ability to detect, sense and gauge the amount of Reiatsu in his or her vicinity. I can detect the change you your Reiatsu and used my Reaistu to negate your petty ... " Ulquiorra explained to Tessai stoically. But he then realizes it's another illusion.
" Bakudō # 70. Mirābisēji no Sākuru(ミラービセージのサークルCircle of the Mirror Visage) " Tessai chanted as he creates ten flashing transparent images of himself.
" What are you up to ? " Ulquiorra asked as he then notices the real Tessai behind him.
" Hadō #88. Hiryugekizokushintenraiho (飛竜撃賊震天雷砲, Flying Dragon-Striking Heaven-Shaking Thunder Cannon)" Tessai chanted as he puts his palm up towards Ulquiorra and fires it creating a massive 3,000 foot radius explosion which causes all the floors from 695 to 845.
Ulquiorra jumps up to the roptop of Las Noches with Tessai following him. They arrive looking around seeing Yoruichi taking on Gin and Tōusen.
" That was too close ! " Ulquiorra said to Tessai.
" It looks like you're getting serious now ! " Tessai replied.
" As one of the top four Espada, i'm forbidden to release my Zanpakutō within Las Noches. That is because they are too powerful and such a release would cause great damage to the fortress Enclose Murciélago (Spanish for Bat) " Ulquiorra chanted as he releases his Shikai.
" Enchant Tenkūshokuin (天空の職員 Staff of the Heavens ) " Tessai chanted as his sword transforms into a large staff with a metal finial with two sections, each with three rings, (for a total of six rings) which represent the Six States of Existence - the cycle of samsara, of suffering and reincarnation.
Meanwhile at Aizen's main tower
Kisuke and Aizen clash attacks with each other. Aizen uses his right hand to aim the sword at Kisuke's face but the shopkeeper blocks the blow .
" Not bad, you haven't changed much " Kisuke said to Aizen as he parries more slashes from Aizen .
" As expected, you haven't changed much ! " Aizen stated.
" Thank you ! " Kisuke replied as he cuts Aizen's head off but it was a clone of Aizen created by Kyōka Suigetsu.
" Senka (閃花, Flash Blossom) " Aizen chanted as he goes to attack with his sword but Kisuke blocks the attack.
" Ōkasen (黄火閃, Yellow Fire Flash)" Kisuke chanted as he generates a yellow blast that widens itself along the length of his Shikai as a horizontal blast, of yellow energy towards Aizen but he hits another illusion.
" Too slow ! " Aizen said to Kisuke as he swings his sword and cuts Kisuke in half but it was a portable Gigal.
" I got you now ! " Kisuke said to Aizen as he leaps in the air and does a jump manages to hold back the slash that concaves the ground they are fighting by 20 feet and goes for a horizontal slash towards but Aizen uses Shunpo to escape the attack.
Kisuke goes up in the air to attack Aizen but the powerful former captain sends him flying with and powerful two-handed horizontal swing . Kisuke regains footing and pushes Aizen back with his own two-handed slash. Aizen goes to back at Kisuke but the shopkeeper uses multiple high-speed stabs at Aizen forcing the former captain to evade the attack . Aizen uses Shunpo to launch a kick knocking Kisuke into a wall.
" Yaburiame(破り雨 Shattering Rain) " Aizen chanted as he shatters his Shikai into hundreds of mirror like blade shards at Kisuke .
" Chikasumi no Tate(血霞の盾,Blood Mist Shield) " Kisuke countered as he summons his blood mist shield blocking the explosion and the explosion levels everything within a 2,000 foot radius. Aizen uses Shunpo to appear behind Kisuke.
" Hadō # 63 Raikōhō (雷吼炮, Thunder Roar Cannon) " Aizen chanted as he shoots a powerful lightning blasts which blasts a hole through the 1,200 foot tower leaving a 20 foot diameter hole within the 50th floor.
" Kirisaki, Benihime(切り裂き紅姫,Shred, Crimson Princess) " Kisuke countered by firing his own barrage of energy bullets which Aizen manages to dodge .
" You can't hit me with your attacks ! " Aizen taunted only to see Kisuke behind him.
" Nake, Benihime(啼け紅姫,Sing, Crimson Princess) " Kisuke countered as he fires a strong concussive and destructive crimson-colored energy blast which clashes with the Cero blast which then explode releasing a massive explosion which levels the top half of Aizen's main tower completely vaporizing everything above the 50th floor.
Aizen then appears in front of Kisuke from the smoke .
" Tsukiumi Megami (月海の女神Goddess Of The Lunar Oceans) " Aizen chanted as his blade release a bright purple light from his Shikai.
" What the hell ? " Kisuke asked Aizen.
" Tsukiumi Megami (i月海の女神Goddess Of The Lunar Oceans) emits a bright blue light from it's blade, which must be seen by an opponent for the technique to take effect . It traps their subconscious within an alternate dimension, in which you're left conscious but unable to move. Anywhere where the light reflects is the area which the attack takes effect " Aizen stated explaining his Shikai special ability .
" I see, i been dying to use this ! " Kisuke replied as he bites his own tongue " Sakkaku Hiteisū (錯覚否定数Illusion Negation ) " Kisuke chanted as he uses the seal on his tongue to deactivate Aizen's Tsukiumi Megami and break free to attack Aizen.
" Impossible ! " Aizen said to Kisuke as he's slashed across the chest however it's only a light cut.
" I finally got you ! " Kisuke said to Aizen as Aizen holds onto his chest.
" But how ? How can you break out of my Kyōka Suigetsu ? " Aizen asked .
" That was my Sakkaku Hiteisū (錯覚否定数Illusion Negation ). It was a device i developed specifically to counter your Kyōka Suigetsu, it's the first time i used this on you " Kisuke explained to Aizen.
" I see, you used that seal to temporarily boost up enough backup Reiatsu to release it for a short moment then use it to affect and negate the control of your brain so my Kyōka Suigetsu can't work on you, clever idea Kisuke , you always stay one step ahead " Aizen stated.
" I know it's going to take more than that to beat you ! " Kisuke replied.
" I can tell you're not here to kill me. You're barely even trying Kisuke " Aizen said to Kisuke .
" I guess you figured out our plan to bust Orihime out of this place " Kisuke stated.
" Trust me Kisuke, i have already planned to stop it . I expected you guys to come here " Aizen replied.
Meanwhile at tower # 1 of Las Noches
Rose and Baraggan are fighting each other in their powered up states. Baraggan in his release form sends a wave of his Respira at Rose but he dodges the attack.
" Respira ( Spanish for Breathe) " Baraggan chanted as he sends a wave of black/purple, smoke-like miasma towards Rose.
" Kinshara Sōkyoku Dai Jūichiban - Izayoi Bara (金沙羅奏曲第十一番・十六夜薔薇, Golden Sal Tree Sonata Number Eleven - Sixteen Day-Old Moon Rose) " Rose countered as he creates a shockwave canceling out the wave and pushing back the wave.
" What ? " Baraggan asked.
" You're abilities managed to negate my Kidō and you said that my Kidō based attack can't affect you because you can age Kidō however you can't age a powerful enough shockwave. You might be able to age wind but atmospheric pressure and sound has existed for millions of years. Not even you can age that " Rose explained to Baraggan.
" Insolent insect, you might of found a way around my Respira but you would need to put enough physical effort to create a shockwave of that level however you won't get the chance " Baraggan stated.
" Bring it on, i'll use the power of art to defeat you ! " Rose replied.
" Take this Respira Balas ( Spanish for Breathe Bullets) " Baraggan chanted as he fires 20 Balas coated with Respria towards Rose.
" Shit ! " Rose shouted as he barely dodges the blasts as the blasts causes everything around Rose to rot.
" Cero Respira ( Spanish for Zero Breathe ) "Baraggan chanted as he fires a cero coated with Respira towards Rose.
" Kinshara Sōkyoku Dai Jūban -Tsuki no tatewabara(金沙羅奏曲第十一番Golden Sal Tree Sonata Number Ten - Shield of the Moon Rose) " Rose countered as he creates a forcewave however the Cero is overpowered and it comes towards Rose but Rose barely dodges the blast.
" Is that the best you got ? " Baraggan arrogantly mocked the Vizard .
" Damn, he's too strong. I need to go all out ! " Rose said to himself.
" Now time to end this ! " Baraggan said to Rose as he charges up a black Cero around his hands covered with Respira.
" Shit, he's going for a full power attack ! " Rose said to himself as wraps his whip around his body.
" Die you ant Respiración de Muerte ( Spanish for Breath of Death ) " Baraggan chanted as he fires a powerful black Cero similar to Cero Oscuras.
" Kinshara Sōkyoku Dai Nanaban- Maitokyoku (金沙羅奏曲第七, マイトの曲Golden Sal Tree Sonata Number Seven-Song of Might ) " Rose countered as the sound of a cracking whip after swinging his whip with full force then swings it creating a cracking sound which launches a sonic blast at the direction of the whip at high speeds similar to a Getsuga Tensho.
The combined blasts level a massive 2 mile diameter ,9,900 foot high tower completely vaporizing the ground . Rose and Baraggan stand at the ruins which have been completely obliterated by the two clashing attacks. Rose Hollow mask cracks and breaks after using it for 3 minutes with him worn out.
" Not bad kid, however it looks like you're at your limit ! " Baraggan said to Rose.
" You think so ? It's true i can't use my mask but i can still use this Bankai : Kinshara Tengāden (金沙羅, 天ガーデンGolden Sal Tree of the Heavenly Garden ) " Rose chanted smashes his Shikai into the ground and his Shikai shatters into hundreds of golden whips . The hilt Rose is wielding turns into a conductor's baton shaped like a rapier while he gains a piano keyboard similar to a duel disc from Yugi Oh on his left forearm which doubles as an elbow blade. Rose allow gains two angel wings behind him as well as a golden Haroi .
" I see, you still have some tricks ? You might be worthy of dying by my blade Gran Caída ( Spanish for Great Fall ) " Baraggan chanted as he summons his axe. The axe itself has a much-slimmer and much-darker appearance than its predecessor, featuring two pointed blades and a large spike protruding outwards from its center, in place of the now-absent slit-eye pendant. There are also four golden chains present around the base of the spike, which appear to extend into his cloak, before attaching to an ornate bracelet worn around his right wrist. Just as before, he wields the axe with a single hand. This is the only weapon wielded by an Arrancar that remains in a form that's vaguely similar to its pre-released state.
Meanwhile at tower # 2 of Las Noches
Kensei is struggling to evade attacks from Starrk's release from. Kensei dodges a blast from the left gun which blasts a hole through the tower.
" Get him Starrk ! " Lilynette said to Starrk while ion gun form.
" Don't nag me so much ! " Starrk replied as he fires 50 Ceros at Kensei but Kensei manages to dodge the shots.
" What power, i thought his attacks were already fast but this is ridiculous " Kensei said to himself as he comes to slash Starrk but Starrk evades it with Sonído.
" Take this ! " Starrk said to Kensei as he fires a bigger Cero from his right pistol which pushes Kensei back a bit burning his left arm.
" Shit ! " Kensei shouted as he feels the pain on his arm.
" Now to finish this ! " Starrk said to Kensei as he aims his left gun at Kensei's head.
" Kūkiha(空気刃 Air Blades) " Kensei chanted as he swings his blade creating a wave of wind that engulfs Starrk and cuts his left and right forearms lightly.
" Damn ! " Starrk said to himself as he struggles to see and tries to withstand the pain of his cuts.
" Above you Starrk ! " Lilynette shouted as Kensei charges at him from the sky with energy around his fist .
" Thanks Lilynette ! " Starrk replied as he fires a Cero into the air from his right pistol which almost hits Kensei.
" That was too close for comfort ! " Kensei said to himself as he tries to sneak attack Starrk but the Primera Espada points his gun at Kensei's direction.
" Sneak attacks won't work on me ! " Starrk stated as he shoots a Cero from his gun that grazes and lightly burns Kensei's left shoulder.
" Damn, those blast pack a punch ! " Kensei said to Starrk.
" You think that's a strong enough Cero ? Allow me to show you stronger attacks. Cero Metralleta (Spanish for Sub-Machine Gun Zero ) " Starrk chanted as he uses his pistols to unleash a powerful barrage of Ceros moving at 1,200 shots per minute.
" Shit Tetsufū ( 鉄風 Iron Wind ) " Kensei countered as he forms a wind barrier around himself as the Cero's hit pushing Kensei and his barrier back.
" You think this barrier of yours would hold you for that much longer ? " Starrk asked Kensei as he keeps his relentless barrage of bullets.
" This barrier won't hold for much longer ! " Kensei said to himself as he struggles to maintain the barrier.
" Looks like that barrier is broken ! " Starrk said to Kensei as the barrier shattered.
" Damn it ! " Kensei shouted as he then sees the Ceros coming towards him.
" Goodbye Shinigami ! " Starrk said to the Vizard.
" Bakudantsuki (爆弾突き Bomb Strike) " Kensei countered as he fires a massive energy wave of wind which cancels out the Ceros and leave both of them standing.
" Not bad , i'm guessing normal Ceros aren't enough to take you on " Starrk said to Kensei.
" You're really giving me a hard time ! " Kensei replied.
" Now time to show you my full power, Camarada ( Spanish for Comrades ) " Starrk chanted as he summon a pack of grey wolves seemingly numbering in the hundreds while his pistols disappear
" What the hell are those ? " Kensei asked Starrk.
" Let's go Starrk ! " Starrk answered within a 3rd person as he sends one of the wolves at Kensei.
" You got to do better than that ! " Kensei shouted as he punches the wolf only to see the wolf make a Cero sound and it creates a massive 3,000 foot radius explosion leveling 1/3 of the tower they are fighting within.
" Is it over already ? " Starrk said to himself.
" What the hell was that ? " I almost got burned " Kensei asked Starrk.
" This is part of our soul ! " Starrk answered.
Meanwhile at tower # 3 of Las Noches
Love and Harribel clash attacks with each other with fire and water clashing which causes smoke and mist around the entire tower.
" Hinotama (火の玉 Fireball ) " Love chanted as he shoots 5 large fireballs towards Harribel.
" Tiburón de Huevo ( Spanish for Shark Egg ) " Harribel countered as she forms water around her which blocks Love's fireballs and cancels them out easily.
" Damn it, her water is going to be a problem ! " Love said to himself as he goes to attack Harribel.
" Time to end this El Tridente ( Spanish for Trident ) " Harribel chanted as she causes her sword to glow with spiritual energy and then fires a high-force mist from her sword at extremely fast speeds.
" Hifuki no Koduchi (火吹の小槌, Fire-Blowing Gavel) " Love countered as he covers his Shikai with flames and clashes with Harribel's Pata's.
Harribel and Love clash attacks with each other. Harribel goes for a forward swing but Love counters blocking the attack.
" Not bad but there's no escaping this attack Cascada ( Spanish for Waterfall) " Harribel chanted as she launches a rushing surge of water at Love.
" Hikiretsu (火亀裂Fire Fissure ) " Love countered as the blasts clash with each other which level the tower.
Love's Vizard mas shatters after using his attack to cancel out Harribel's water based attack.
" Looks like that power of yours have ran out ! " Harribel said to Love.
" It only lasts for three minutes 'cause i'm a hero, y'know! " Love replied as he stands there worn out.
" Finished already ? " Harribel asked.
" Not even close, i'm a Captain after all. If i can't use my mask, i'll use the thing i had before that made me captain" Bankai :Tengumaru no Gōka Lankō (天狗丸, 業火観光のLong-Nosed Goblin of the Hellfire Kingdom ) " Love chanted as he swings his Shikai upward until he's caught in a tornado of fire. Once the tornado clears up, his weapon transforms into two massive kanabōs the same size of his Shikai only covered with fire and both chained together while he has spiked turtle shell protecting his torso.
" Not bad, but let's see how well you do against my power Absorción del Agua ( Spanish for Water Absorption ) " Harribel chanted as she uses her Pata to absorb all the water within a 5 mile radius by gathering what little water within the atmosphere of Las Noches and it condenses around her blade.
" What are you doing ? " Love asked.
" I'm increasing my strentgh. Absorción del Agua ( Spanish for Water Absorption ) absorbs all the water within the atmosphere and increases my power greatly. It can go up anywhere between 200% to 1000% depending on the amount of water i gather. Being here in Hueco Mundo limits the amount of water i can take from the atmosphere which limited my potential greatly , in a high humidity climate , i can rival even the Primera Espada's Segunda Epta form " Harribel explained to Love .
Meanwhile at Sector #10, 1st floor
Mashiro and Wonderweiss clash attacks evenly with each other. Mashiro kicks the Arrancar in the face and smacks him into the wall.
" AAAAAU ! " Wonderweiss said to Mashiro as he fires 10 Balas at Mashiro but the Vizard dodges the attack.
" Mashiro Spinning Kick " Mashiro chanted as she does 10 spinning kicks which hits Wonderweiss and send him flying 1,000 feet through several more walls.
" ... " Wonderweiss yawned as he fires a Cero towards Mashiro which causes another large explosion.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 12
Kukaku and Kaien clash attacks with each other with Kukaku coming at him however holding back her intent to kill due to her being convinced that she's really fighting Kaien. Both are clashing with their Shikai.
" He's definitively Kaien , his spear stances, his techniques, his attitude, he's definitively Kaien. My heart believes that it's Kaien but something in my head makes me think he might not be what he sees " Kukaku said to herself as she blocks the hit her Shikai.
" Not bad Kukaku, you improved pretty well since we last clashed but let's see how well you do with two hands on this blade " Kaien stated as he puts more pressure on Kukaku which has the ground weigh down from the pressure.
" Not good enough ! " Kukaku replied as she glows with blue Reiatsu and pushes back Kaien's attack which creates a wave of lightning Reiatsu and water canceling out both attacks.
" Not bad, you have alot of strength to blow a direct blow from my Nejibana . You improved alot Kukaku " Kaien explained to his sister.
" Why serve Aizen ? " Kukaku asked as she continues to clash with Kaien.
" I already told you, he's trying to make things better for the world . He's trying to fill in the gap that the Soul King left behind long ago " Kaien answered as he pushes back his sisters attack.
Kaien goes for a clockwise horizontal slash but Kukaku manages to block the blow with her Shikai and swings her hammer and almost hits Kaien with the blade but Kaien dodges the attack.
" What about your wife ? Aizen killed Miyako , he ruined your life " Kukaku asked Kaien.
" My wife was a lie put by the Gotei 13 through the noble houses to pacify people like me. In reality she was a whore " Kaien explained to Kukaku only to be smashed in the face and knocked through several walls and hit the wall revealing sunlight out of the crack.
" You're not Kaien Shiba. The Kaien Shiba i know loved his wife and would never call her a whore ,who are you ? " Kukaku shouted as the sunlight from the sandlot reveals the true identity of the 9th Espada.
" We are the Noveno Espada Aaroniero Arruruerie " they both answered.
" What's going on ? " Kukaku shouted.
" When you blasted the wall, you negated our transformation power and we were forced into our true form " the female voice said to Kukaku.
" So you tricked me all this time ? " Kukaku asked them.
" We were planning to wear you down so once you ran out of Reiatsu, we can take your body " the male voice answered.
" Not quite , this isn't a transformation ability ! " the male voice answered as he uses Sonído to go into the shadows and return to his Kaien form .
" What are you talking about ? " Kukaku asked Kaien.
" I'm the only Gillian out of all the Espada " Kaieniro said to Kukaku.
" So , what's your point ? " Kukau asked him.
" You're aware that in general , no Gillain would be powerful enough to join the ranks of the Espada. Only fully developed Adjuchas can be an Espada and yet here i am, bestowed with the number #9 . Do you know why ? " Kaieniro asked Kukaku back.
" Why ? " Kukaku questioned the Arrancar.
" Out of every single Arrancar in existence, i'm the only one who has the infinite ability to evolve . When Metastacia died, crumbled and returned to Hucedo Mundo to reform , i fed upon it and absorbed it's power back when i was merely a Gillain . Back when i was a Gillain. I was starting to develop into an Adjuchas and i had this one unique power that put me a cut above the rest " Kaieniro explained to Kukaku as he takes out a brown tentacle from the left sleeve.
" WHAT THE FUCK ? " Kukaku shouted.
" My ability is Glotoneria . Any Hollow i see , i can devour them and receive all their powers and abiltes " Kaieniro explained to Kukaku.
" Devour Glotonería (Spanish for Gluttony) " Kaieniro chanted as he turns his lower body into a huge, purple blob-like mass resembling an incredibly bloated invertebrate, with dozens of stubby tentacles and large mouths complete with teeth all their own.
" What the hell is that ? " Kukaku horrified at what she sees.
" This is the result of all the Hollows i've eaten up until now . This release form is anything like that of all those other Arrancars. My Glotoneria allows me to use the abilities of every hollow eaten ... All at the same time ! Form this point , think of this battle... As army 30,000 Hollows ... All lined up to defeat you ! " Kaienrio explained to Kukaku as they both hear and feel earthquakes within Las Noches.
" What's going on ? " Kukaku asked.
" That immense level of Reiatsu, who's causing this ? " Kaien said to himself.
Meanwhile within Las Noches Sandlot
Lisa with her Vizard Mask and Shikai massive 165 foot high monster staring down at Lisa. Lisa is panting from the exhaustion having to fight Second Form Yammy.
" Ha, you look like you're exhausted already " Yammy said to Lisa .
" Damn , it's not over yet ! " Lisa replied as she gets back up.
" Take this Super Bala " Yammy chanted as he fires a two-handed Bala towards Lisa which Lisa Barely dodges that creates a 2,000 foot radius explosion.
" How is he getting stronger ? " Lisa asked herself as she sees Yammy's fist comes towards her
" Take this ! " Yammy shouted as he punches Lisa into the center of Sandlot hitting one of the 5 main towers.
" Damn it ! " Lisa shouted as she struggles to get up.
" I'M REALLY PISSED OFF NOW! WHERE IS THAT KUROSAKI ? I WANT TO SEE HOW WELL HE DOES AGAINST ME NOW ! " Yammy shouted as he beats his chest causing a shockwave around him.
" What is he doing ? " Lisa said to herself as she sees the brute powering up.
" You're still alive ? I thought my Gonzui (魂吸 Soul Inhalation) would of took your Reiatsu by now " Yammy said to Lisa as he goes towards her,
" How did you get so strong ? You're power was barely above 50,000 RYK, how did you jump up to 750,000 RYK and what's with that form of yours ? How can it heal injuries ? Is that a second release ? " Lisa asked.
" I get stronger depending on who i fight . Now, go ahead. Piss me off more, more, more... It's only gonna make the way you die all the more messy " Yammy explained to Lisa.
" Don't get carried away ! " Lisa shouted as she fires a Blue Cero towards Yammy.
" Gonzui (魂吸 Soul Inhalation) " Yammy answered as he uses the ability to absorb the Cero and increase his strength.
" What ? " Lisa asked.
" I can also eat an enemies attack with this ability to increase my strength. Good luck trying to beat me now " Yammy shouted as he comes at Lisa with a punch which shatters one of the towers causing an earthquake.
Meanwhile at Las Noches rooftop
Ichigo is being healed by Hachigen of all his wounds when the main tower collapses and an implosion leveling the surrounding towers occur leaving a 3,000 foot diameter hole as millions of tons of rubble fall down to the bottom.
" What the hell is going on ? This place is collapsing ! " Ichigo said to Hachigen .
" The battles are getting too tense " Hachigen explained to Ichigo as he looks to see one tower in runs covered black and purple flames while another part is bombarded by a series of explosions within a distance and the clashing of fire from the south.
" Where's Orihime ? " Ichigo asked.
" She's coming closer here, let's meet up with her ! " Hachigen answered as they run aside to meet up with Orihime when he feels an immense amount of Reiatsu.
" What is this Reiatsu ? Could it be Yammy ? No way in hell. His Reiatsu was nowhere near this powerful when i fought him, what changed ? It doesn't matter, one of the Vizards are there but i'm sensing another Reiatsu rapidly approaching Las Noches, but who the hell can it be ? I haven't felt Reiatsu that high since i fought that old man Danzō or that Arrancar fighting Shinji, question is whether is the guy coming here is a friend or foe " Ichigo said to himself as he rushes towards Orihime.
Meanwhile at the ruins of the main tower
Aizen and Kisuke clash over the 3,000 foot diameter hole that exposes the sun lit sandlot to the outside sun.
" Looks like Yammy has finally realized his hidden potential ! " Aizen said to Kisuke.
" That can't be the same brute that Yoruichi effortlessly dispatched back in Karakura Town less than a month ago " Kisuke asked Aizen shocked at it's growing Reiatsu.
" Surprised ? Yammy is one of my two secret super weapons that i have developed to ensure the completion of the Hōgyoku " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" Secret weapons ? " Kisuke asked.
" Yep, Yammy was originally below even Aaroniero in power and for a while was an incomplete mock Arrancar similar to Grand Fisher before becoming an complete Arrancar with the Hōgyoku. Yammy naturally became an Arrancar by breaking his mask . After i completed my own Hōgyoku, he became a Números level Arrancar with only Vice Captain level power. Yammy like Aaroniero had so much potential as an Espada that i increased his strength " Szayel explained to Kisuke.
" So Yammy is a modified Hollow ? He didn't seem that powerful for someone so modded " Kisuke stated.
" Trust me when i said he was much weaker. It didn't help that the hollow known as Yammy lacked Intelligence int he first place and was far too arrogant of his power to train to get stronger like the rest of the Arrancars. My top scientist gave him special power enhancing drugs to test the limits of his power and that's how he emerged as the Espada you know " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" So why did you guys work so hard on him ? " Kisuke questioned the former Captain.
" He might of been a mere hollow in the past but thanks to his unique ability to steal Reishi to increase his strength, he was very useful for us . Yammy's Gonzui (魂吸 Soul Inhalation ) devours as many souls as possible within a large radius of Yammy, in order to rapidly increase the size and power of his Reiryoku. Yammy prior to self Arrrancifacation was stronger than Grand Fisher, with his own Arrancarfcation, he emerged to be as powerful as a Gillian and with the Hōgyoku, became Adjuchas level and with my help, Espada level. The power to steal Reiryoku is what made him such a big deal back then and his second form " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" Second form ? " Kisuke asked.
" Thanks to special drugs that enhance his size and power whenever he's enraged , at his most enraged , he grows to be skyscraper sized and gets a boost of power. Strength wise, i put him somewhere between the 5th and 6th Espada " Aizen answered.
" So you guys really value this guy at one point ? " Kisuke asked.
" Sadly though he never lived up to our expectations as # 0 Espada . The drugs we put within his body vastly increased his point to the point he can hold his own with Kenpachi Zaraki in his enraged form however his power never went any higher than because of the laziness and stupidity of that brute combined with his immense arrogance believing himself to be actually the #0 Espada . Hell he disappointed me when he couldn't beat the former 10th Espada without using his enraged form but that all seems different " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" His power peaked to over 2,000,000 RYK " Kisuke said to Aizen.
" And it would keep expanding until he reaches 5,000,000 RYK as expected , it seems that after all this time that Yammy has finally unleashed his true power. Ichigo killing him really awoken his rage to the point all his hidden power is unleashed to the point i don't need Kyōka Suigetsu to awaken his power " Aizen stated.
" What's the point of making him so strong ? He's a moron and would end up leveling your palace with that much power " Kisuke asked Aizen.
" Yammy's goal and reason to be this powerful is because , he's the only Arrancar who can help me create the Ōken. Yammy was originally going to be used to create the Ōken by leveling your town with his mega Gonzui however he was a failure and i instead created several more prototypes , including the monster responsible for the incident within Karakura Town 20 years ago . I actually have long forgotten it until now. Thanks to Ichigo, he hastened the death of his town and the entire world " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" This is bad, Lisa is stuck fighting that monster herself ! " Kisuke said to himself as he blocks a slash from Aizen.
" You think things can't get bad for your team ? Think again because it's bound to get much worse from here " Aizen replied as he pushes back Kisuke.
Meanwhile at the Sandlot.
Lisa struggles to stand after being crushed by millions of tons of falling debris from the collapsed towers and stares at the 3,000 foot diameter hole high in the skydome when Yammy in his uberpowered up form comes towards her moving towards her.
" ME CRUSH PUNY GIRL ! " Yammy shouted as he punches the ground creating a massive shockwave which causes the sandlot to shake from the force of the punch.
" Damn it, i have no choice but to use my full power ! " Lisa said to herself as she goes for her strongest attack.
" Time to die ! " Yammy shouted as he charges up a Cero.
" Ryū Sōfunsai (竜ソー粉砕 Dragon Saw Smash ) " Lisa chanted as she spins around her Shikai and then twirls it around her body, then throws it like a rotating buzzsaw.
Both attacks clash with each other and create a massive explosion.
Meanwhle at the rooftop of Las Noches
Orihime and Ibiki made it to the rooftop of Las Noches where they see battles and chaos erupting everywhere as well as the Tessai clone.
" We made it ! " Orihime said to Ibiki.
" It's like a warzone. Explosions are everywhere " Ibiki replied as she sees dust and smoke and shockwaves everywhere she looks .
" We're almost home free ! " Fake Tessai replied.
From a distance they see Ichigo and Hachigen walking together with Ichigo wearing Orihime's tie on his head.
" Ichigo !" Orihime shouted as she rushes towards Ichigo.
" Orihime ! " Ichigo shouted as he rushes towards his lover.
However an explosion of smoke occurs and suddenly Kakuzu jumps out and attacks the clone of Tessai and Hidan goes to attack Hachigen.
" Looks like we found the Substitute Shinigami " Kakuzu said to Hidan.
" Indeed ! " Hidan replied.
" Akatsukis ! " Ichigo shouted as they surround Ichigo but the clone of Tessai Hachigen appear to take on the duo.
" Ichigo, take Orihime and Ibiki and run out of here " Tessai said to Ichigo.
" Right ! " Ichigo replied as he grabs Orihime and Ibiki and they run away.
" Who the hell are you two ? " Hidan asked.
" I'm Tessai and that's Hachigen ! " Tessai answered.
" You're in our way ! " Kakuzu stated.
" We know ! " Hachigen replied.
" You bastards, i'll just sacrifice you two ! " Hidan shouted.
" You're not the real Tessai , where is he ? " Hachigen said to the clone.
" He's in his own fight ! " Tessai answered.
" You can't use Shikai or Bankai as a clone unless you were created while in Shikai state " Hachigen stated.
" I know but we don't have to fight all out, we just need to hold off the enemy while Ichigo and Orihime escape " Tessai replied.
Meanwhile Kisuke and Aizen clash attacks with each other when he notices Hidan and Kakuzu within te area.
" What the hell ? " Kisuke asked.
" Looks like the Shinobi have arrived here " Aizen answered.
" Shit ! A setup , i knew things were going all too well " Ksiuke stated.
" You fell for my trap Kisuke ! " Aizen replied as Pein appears behind him.
" Shinra Tensei " Pein chanted as he uses a powerful shockwave to send Kisuke flying from a distance.
" You aren't going anywhere with Orihime " Aizen said to Kisuke.
" Damn it ! " Kisuke replied as he tires to recover from the shockwave.
" I have invited some good friends for your friends to fight " Aizen said to Kisuke as more Akatsuki appear to fight.
Meanwhile Tessai in his Shikai state and Ulquiorra in his release form clash attacks with each other. Ulquiorra blocks Tessai's staff with his javelin and they fight. Suddenly Tessai sees a wave of black flames head towards him but he dodges the flames barley.
" What are you doing here ? " Ulquiorra asked Itachi.
" I'm here to assist you ! " Itachi answered.
" I don't require your assistance ! " Ulquiorra stated.
" Aizen said just incase ! " Itachi replied.
" This is bad ! " Tessai said to himself.
Meanwhile Yoruichi , Gin and Tōusen fight when Yoruichi then sees missiles come at her from the Asura Path.
" What the hell ? " Yoruichi asked as she sees the missle launching Asura Path.
" Looks like one of the Path's came to help us out " Gin said to Tōusen.
" Good thing, she was wearing me out ! " Tōusen replied.
" Damn, reinforcements ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
Meanwhile Shinji has Skullak on one knee exhausted with his blade out however Shinji is covered with cuts and slashes with his mask gone but still in Shikai state.
" Damn, you're a powerful foe ! " Skullak said to Shinji .
" You're one tough opponent. Very few have been able to get used to my Sakanade that fast " Shinji stated as he struggles to hold his weapon as he reverts back to base form.
" Damn it ! " Skullak said to himself.
" Looks like your Resurrección has reached your limit " Shinji said to Skullak only to see his Shikai revert to his sealed sword form.
Suddenly a large dragon blast hits the area almost blowing up Shinji , the explosion reveals Deidara in C-2 form.
" Looks like i finally get some payback on you bastard " Deidara said to Shinji while he's in a injured state.
" Stay out of this fight, this one is mine ! " Skullak said to Deidara.
" Unless you want to get blown to bits, i suggest that you get outta my way ! " Deidara replied.
" What's going on ? I wasn't expecting them to appear . This isn't good at all . I had a tough fight with that Arrancar and i'm far too injured to fight someone like him off " Shinji said to himself as he dodges a blast from Deidara.
" Come on tough guy. Let's see what you got ! " Deidara shouted as he sees another blast come towards him.

Hiyori is then caught off guard by a Los Guerreros Calavera. Hiyori clash attacks with the 10 Los Guerreros Calaveras created by Rudbornn .Each of the skull warriors here are half as powerful as a Captain. Each of their swords are made especially to pierce even released Espada Hierro because their blades channel Reiatsu into sonicwave which allows them to do both external and internal damage , there's nothing that can block the cutting power of their swords . They all knock back Hiyori and waste no time in going full power.
" Damn, these guys are tough ! " Hiyori said to herself.

" Kūkiha(空気刃 Air Blades) " Kensei chanted as he produces several vacuum waves which cuts apart 5 wolves but they reform.
" You won't be able to stop them so easily ! " Starrk said to Vizard.
" They're regenerating like flames ! " Kensei said to himself only to see a wolf biting his legs.
" I got you ! " Starrk said to Kensei as 4 more wolves bite him.
" Shit ! " Kensei shouted as he's hit by a massive explosion. The smoke clears up to reveal that Kensei escaped the blast with minor injuries.
" You managed to escape the blast ! " Starrk said to Kensei he closes towards Kensei.
" I saw through your Cero trick , now time to see how those homing Ceros work at close range next to you " Kensei said to Starrk as he grabs Starrk.
" They're not Ceros, if they were just Ceros, it wouldn't be enough to critically injure someone as powerful as you " Starrk stated as he has his wolves bite Kensei and drag him away from Starrk.
" What the fuck ? " Kensei asked shocked to see the wolves drag him away.
" We're able to divide our soul and control the pieces within battle . Those wolves are both Starrk and Lilynette, they act as a pack, protecting the master like wolves in a pack . We're the Primera Espada , Coyote Starrk and Lilynette Gingerback and this is our power " Starrk explained to Kensei as 30 wovles come towards him.

" Bankai: Tekken Tachikaze (鐡拳・断風, Iron Fist Severing Wind): When released, an explosion of wind erupts around Kensei,and when it ends,Tachikaze transforms from a single combat knife into a pair of large knuckle blades that Kensei holds in each hand. Both blades have a curved silver edge, which tapers off to an outward point on either side. Segmented purple bands wraps around the entirety of his arms, much like armor, while a thicker purple band arches behind him, over his head, with its ends protruding from under his shoulders.
" What the hell ? " Starrk asked only to see his chest cut by Kensei who moved so fast that he crossed the distance within a second .
" I told you that i'm far from done ! " Kensei stated as he struggles to stand.

Suiton: Dai Bakusui Shōha (水遁・大爆水衝波 Water Style: Super Exploding Water Shockwave) " Kisame shouted as he spews out a large amount of water, covering an entire area with crushing, unavoidable waves. The water then forms into a giant orb which is 2 miles in diameter and 6,400 feet high and as deep as the dome is wide .

" ... " Wonderweiss moaned as he stares at Mashiro.
" Crap. My mask shattered but how ? Did i use it up too much ? " Mashiro asked herself.
"... " Wonderweiss moaned as it comes closer to Mashiro.
" This isn't good ! " Mashiro said to herself.
Meanwhile at the rooftop of Las Noches
Ichigo, Ibiki and Orihime are about to reach the staircase to go downstairs when Tobi appears in front of them.
" There you are Orihime ! " Tobi said to the Substitute Shinigami.
" YOU AGAIN ! " Ichigo shouted.
" Who are you ? " Ibiki asked only to see Tobi behind her with a kunai holding her at knifepoint.
" What are you doing ? " Orihime asked.
" Come with me or she gets killed " Tobi said to Orihime.
" Let go of her you asshole ! " Ichigo shouted as he sees a Garganta opens up.
" Orihime get into the Garganta now ! " Tobi said to Orihime.
" Right ! " Orihime replied as she walks into the Garanta.
" Orihime , don't do it ! " Ichigo shouted.
" If he doesn't , he'll kill her ! " Orihime stated.
" Damn it ! " Ichigo shouted.
" Smart move Orihime ! " Tobi replied as he goes to stab Ibiki.
" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime chanted as she deflects the explosive force back at Tobi before he can stab Ibiki protecting the Vice Captain with the barrier and pushing Tobi back.
" What the hell ? " Tobi shouted as he sees Ibiki get away from him and Ichigo comes at him
" Bankai :Tensa Zangetsu " Ichigo chanted as he transforms into his Bankai and puts on his Vizard mask.
" This again, you never learn. I don't need to use intangibly to beat you " Tobi stated.
" Run Orihime, Ibiki, take her and leave ! " Ichigo shouted as he holds back Tobi.
" Okay, Orihime come on ! " Ibiki replied as she grabs Orihime.
Ichigo comes at Tobi with Getsuga wrapped around his blade and goes to slash Tobi but Tobi is already behind Ichigo. Ichigo turns around and goes to hit Tobi but Tobi blocks with his kunai.
" You really think you can beat me yourself when you can't take on the top-tier Espadas ? " Tobi asked Ichigo.
" I don't care, as long as Orihime makes a clean getaway , then that's all that matters " Ichigo answered .
" Ever considered that we're here for you two ! " Tobi said to Ichigo.
" What do you mean ? " Ichigo questioned the masked man.
" Simple, that Hollow of yours would help us create the 10 tails and with that power, we'll rule the world " Tobi answered as he pushes back Ichigo with his kunai.
" Like hell if i'll let you do that , i'll cut you down if i have too " Ichigo shouted.
" Think of it this way Ichigo . That Hollow is ruining your body and ruining your life, by coming with us, we can remove the hollow from you so you don't end up killing more innocent people " Tobi stated.
" You think for a second i'll believe your crap ? " Ichigo asked the Akatsuki leader.
" Think of all the trouble that Hollow has caused you. Because of him, you nearly leveled your own hometown, you killed thousands within Konoha and you almost killed your friends . Think of the many lies you'll save by giving up that hollow power " Tobi explained to Ichigo.
" Not a bad idea however i refuse to had it to you, you monsters plan to kill millions to achieve your goals and wipe out my hometown with the Oken. I rather die than to give you what you want " Ichigo explained to Tobi in defiance.
" Then so be it , i'll crush you like the bug you are ! " Tobi replied as he comes at Ichigo and punches him in the gut .
" ARRGH ! " Ichigo shouted as he coughs up blood through his mask.
" Fool, do you think you can take me ? My power is on par with that of Aizen, you're not even in the same league as me " Tobi stated.
Meanwhile Orihime sees what's going on and rushes back.
" Orihime what are you doing ? " Ibiki asked.
" Ichigo is in trouble ! " Orihime answered.
" What can we do about it ? We're weak and powerless against the Akatsuki " Ibiki stated.
" We can still help ! " Orihime replied.
Meanwhile Hachigen and Hidan clash attack. Hachigen evades Hidan's scythe by a few inches.
" Damn , he's fast and strong. I'm not very good with close quarters combat " Hachigen said to himself as he barely evades another slash.
" Come on fatass, is this the best you got ? " Hidan shouted as he comes at the fat Vizard.
" Bakudō # 63 .Sajo Sabaku (鎖条鎖縛, Locking Bondage Stripes) " Hachigen chanted as he binds Hidan .
" Damn you, this thing is really binding me down . What the hell is this ? " Hidan shouted as he struggles to break out.
" This is Bakudō , it binds the soul and prevents you from moving " Hachigen explained to Hidan.
" You think that's enough to stop me ? Fuck that shit ! " Hidan shouted as he puts enough effort and shatters the chains with all his force.
" Impossible, he broke the Kidō so easily . How can he break it with pure strentgh alone ? " Hachigen said to himself.
" I got you now ! " Hidan shouted as he charges at Hachigen.
" I hate to do this but i have to do this Hadō # 19 Raitosupia(ライトスピアLight Spear) " Hachigen chanted as he throws a spear of light through Hidan's head however being Hidan is immortal ,Hidan removes the spear from his forehead.
" Bastard , that hurt like hell ! " Hidan shouted as he breaks the spear with his barehand with his hand bleeding.
" What the hell are you ? I hit you directly in the forehead and yet you're not dead . Are you immortal ? " Hachigen asked shocked to see Hidan alive.
" Looks like you're just as stupid as you're fat ! " Hidan answered.
" This is insanity , i never thought i would face an immortal . Very well, i have no choice but to fight seriously " Hachigen stated as he puts on his Vizard mask.
Meanwhile at the otherside of the canopy. Kakuzu and Tessai clash fists with each other, the clone of Tessai is able to fight on par with Kakuzu despite not having a Zanpakutō. Kakuzu is attacking with his 5 hearts.
" Wind Style: Pressure Damage (風遁・圧害Fūton: Atsugai) " Kakuzu chanted as the wind beast fires a wind blast towards Tessai .
" Hadō # 34. Kongōbaku (金剛漠爆,Adamantine Blast) " Fake Tessai countered as he shoots a fireball overpowering the wind blast and the fireball heads towards the wind mask.
" Water Style : Ripping Torrent " Kakuzu chanted as he fires a water blast going close to the fireball to negate the attack and protect the fire mask.
" Hadō 37 Āsurainbura( アースラインブラ Earth Line Blast) " Fake Tessai countered as he cuts a huge straight line through the earth using a massive earth spike.
" Lightning Style: Piercing Darkness " Kakuzu countered as he has his lightning mask fire a lightning bolt beam that tears through the earth spike cutting it in half and almost hitting Tessai.
" Hadō 58 # . Tenran (闐嵐,Orchid Sky) " Fake Tessai countered as he shoots a wind blast negating the lightning blasts and the wind blast heads towards Kakuzu.
" Not bad , you fight pretty well ! " Kakuzu said to Fake Tessai as he punches Tessai in the face and comes at him with another blow.
" Same here ! " Fake Tessai replied as he blocks a punch from Kakuzu and punches him in the face.
" Let's see how well you do against this ! " Kakuzu stated as he charges up his own attack.
" It's time i show you my power ! " Fake Tessai replied.
" Kantsū Senpū Honō Seinen(貫通旋風の炎成年 Piercing Whirlwind Blaze Torrent) " Kakuzu countered as he fires Water Style : Ripping Torrent from his hands, Lightning Style: Piercing Darkness from his Lightning Mask , Wind Style: Pressure Damage from his Wind Mask , and Fire Style : Searing Pain from his fire mask to make a powerful blast .
" Uzuasshuku Tsunami ( 渦圧縮の津波 Maelstrom Compression Tidal Wave ) " Tessai chanted as he summons a massive tidal wave that forms into a gigantic whirlpool once it hits Kakuzu's blast and then compresses into a massive water blast.
Meanwhile Kisuke and Aizen clash with Deva Path . The shopkeeper struggles to fight both of them at once.
" Damn it , so you planned to lure all of us out here so you can kill us and take Ichigo for yourself ? " Kisuke asked Aizen.
" You figured it out . You and the Vizards are by far the biggest problem to deal with , none of you ever saw my Kyōka Suigetsu and could be a problem for me in the future . I knew everything about your operation Halcyon , i have planned to originally use this an opportunity to capture Ichigo however i figure i get rid of some minor nuisances in the process " Aizen explained to Kisuke.
" So that was your game ? I must say, i wasn't expecting this one " Kisuke stated.
" Soon Aizen would be the one to rule this world and he would help forge a path for peace . He would help achieve peace by helping us destroy the warmongering Soul Society " Pein replied.
" I'll be damn if we let you guys succeed ! " Kisuke replied as he fight both of them.
Meanwhile back at the canopy , Ichigo struggles to fight Tobi but is easily overpowered.
" You're quite foolish , for that, you will be forced to do as i say " Tobi replied as he summons chains which wrap around Ichigo and pin him down.
" Shit ! " Ichigo shouted.
" Time to take you to get extracted ! " Tobi said to Ichigo as he's about to grab Ichigo.
" Whisper Shizuka Kazeshibō : Muon Kasumidōmu (静か無音霞ドーム Silent Wind Death :Silent Mist Dome ) " Ibiki chanted as she engulfs everything within a 300 foot radius in a deep mist cloud which blinds Tobi.
" What's this, i can't see ! " Tobi said to himself.
" Koten Zanshun (孤天斬盾,Solitary Sacred Cutting Shield) " Orihime chanted as she cuts the chains using Tsubaki freeing Ichigo.
" Orihime . What are you doing here ? " Ichigo asked Orihime .
" We're helping you out ! " Orihime answered.
" Run , you stand no chance ! " Ichigo shouted only to see Tobi suck up Ibiki's mist easily.
" Did you really think that blinding me would help you guys out ? I'll just trap Ichigo again " Tobi said to the group.
" Shit, he negated my Shikai with ease ! " Ibiki said to herself.
" Since you're the one who blinded me , you die frist " Tobi said to Ibiki as he comes towards her.
" Shit ! " Ibiki shouted.
" Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime chanted as she surrounds Tobi with the 4 shields around his body.
" You got to be joking , you think trapping me is going to help ? " Tobi asked Orihime as he tries to turn intangible only to be stopped and brunt by the barrier.
" I just realized that is to trap enemies too within this shield ! " Orihime explained to Tobi.
" Impossible, her shield is containing me inside but how ? " Tobi said to himself as he struggles to move.
" Ichigo now , stab the shield and attack him with your full power " Orihime said to Ichigo.
" How are you trapping him ? " Ichigo asked shocked to see Orihime holding him in place.
" My shield rejects any negative phenomena right ? It might not be enough to kill him but it would still hold him down. If you use your Getsuga Kussakuyari with my Shiten Kōshun , i can amplify the attack force by at least 500% " Orihime explained to Ichigo.
" You can do that ? " Ichigo asked her.
" I never tired it but it just might work , i'm using all my Reiatsu to keep him inside. I can't maintain it for much longer " Orihime said to Ichigo as she struggles to hold the barrier around Tobi.
" Damn it, her barrier is using Temporal Regression to stop my Space Time Ninjutsu. No it's much more powerful than that, she's negating the Chakra within my body. I can't even move, what kind of power is this ? " Tobi said to himself as he struggle to move.
" Ibiki get out of here ! " Ichigo said Ibiki as he gathers all his power together .
" I'm not sticking around to get blasted away ! " Ibiki replied as she runs to safety and takes cover behind a rock .
" Getsuga Kussakuyari (月牙掘削槍 Moon Fang Drilling Lance ) " Ichigo chanted as he jumps up and strikes down towards Tobi and tabs his sword through the barrier
" Damn , i can't move ! " Tobi said to himself as the blade hits his mask.
" Now Shiten Kōshun (四天抗盾, Shield of Four Heavens' Resistance) " Orihime chanted as each of the shields surrounding Tobi bounce back the spiraling blast
" OH SHIT ! " Tobi shouted as the blast hits him.
The attack then creates an explosion going downward drilling down to the sandlot of Las Noches and hitting down where Yammy is at .
Meanwhile at the Sandlot
Lisa is on the ground with her clothes ripped and bloodied. Her Sailor fuku is torn up and covered with dirt and burns and her face is bleeding with her arms burned and her sealed sword broken with her body bruised up, her glasses are cracked from the forced of the attack. Yammy is approaching from a 4 mile distance.
" I wasn't expecting you to survive this long, you were sent flying a good distance however it's time i end this boring fight " Yammy said to Lisa as he charges up a Cero.
" How can this be ? His power peaked at 3,000,000 RYK. Is he really the strongest Espada ? " Lisa said to herself as she struggles to move.
" Goodbye bitch ! " Yammy shouted as he's about the fire the Cero.
Suddenly a massive black and red blast resembling a drill comes from the top that comes right towards Yammy.
" What the hell ? " Lisa said to herself as the blast hits Yammy's head.
" ARRGGGH ! " Yammy shouted as he's then split in half from the attack and instantly killed. The attack hits the sandlot and causes a massive explosion leveling everything within a 4 mile radius with Lisa stares at the blast coming towards her .
" Incredible , is that Ichigo's attack ? He one shotted the Zero Espada with one hit and he wasn't even aiming for him" Lisa said to herself as she's safe from the blast radius and only hit by a dustcloud .
Meanwhile at Baraggan's Palace
Baraggan's Fracción see the blast wave coming towards them .
" That blast is so powerful ! " Findor said to the group as he sees the barrier cracking.
" Impossible, the barrier is cracking " Gigo shouted as the blast breaks through and vaporizes all of them.
" ARRGH ! " Choe screamed as he burns to ashes .
" UUWARGH ! " Niggre screamed as he's burned alive.
" DAMNIT ! " Charotlee shouted as he's vaporized as well.
Meanwhile at the Medical Bay , Sector # 13 , 570th floor
Rey is within the Hospital with Rey getting treated by the doctors within the facility. They all felt the shockwave .
" What a powerful Reiatsu ! " Rey said to Sheelal.
" It came close to matching that of a Vasto Lorde " Sheelal answered.
" The walls are cracking ! " Sun Sun answered.
" Damn it ! " Apache stated.
" The power is going out ! " Rey replied as the entire place goes dark and shakes violently from the blast.
Back at the rooftop
Kisuke, Aizen and Pein see a massive cloud of smoke come out of the crater and feel a massive rumble that shakes the ground and causes the entire dome to start cracking from the pressure .
" What's going on ? " Kisuke asked as he looks around the dome.
" It seems like this place is falling apart ! " Aizen answered.
" It makes no difference really . You will die here as well as your friends " Pein stated.
" Don't count us out yet ! " Kisuke replied.
Meanwhile Yoruichi dodges attacks from Gin, Tōusen and Asura Path when they all feel the dome staring to crack .
" This is ridiculous , Ichigo's attack combined with Orihime's is causing Las Noches to fall apart as well as all these high level Reiatsus " Yoruichi said to herself.
Meanwhile Shinji stares at the attack while fighting Deidara and Skullak .
" What was that attack ? " Shinji said to himself.
" Was that Ichigo ? His attack was nowhere near this powerful when he used it on me , what changed ? " Skullak said to himself.
" That bastard , that attack i just felt seemed even more powerful than my C-3 blasts but how ? " Deidara said to himself.
" I didn't think Orihime combing her power with Ichigo would be so powerful " Shinji said to himself.
" I would've died if that attack hit me . Amazing how that Inoue girl can increase power to that extent " Skullak said to himself.
Meanwhile Ibiki is watching from a distance using her soulphone.
" Amazing , Orihime's shields amplified Ichigo's attack from 1,000,000 RYK to 5,000,000 RYK. That enough power to obliterate a small city ,the blast produced the explosive force is equal to 1 megatons of TNT , releasing 4.184 x 10^15 joules. Enough power to funnel a hurricane . There's no way anything within the main building of Las Noches within a 4 mile radius is going to be okay let alone that masked man " Ibiki said to herself.
Ichigo and Orihime are greatly exhausted of their power . They both stare at the 10 foot diameter hole that goes all the way into the ground. They look down to see a massive 1 mile diameter , 1,500 foot deep crater from the attack.
" We did it ! " Orihime said to Ichigo as her hairpins turn black.
" We make a great team ! " Ichigo replied as his Bankai reverts to a Shikai.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime said to her lover as she grabs Ichigo's face.
" That was incredible Orihime. Thanks to you, that attack did 5 times as much damage " Ichigo explained to Orihime.
" Thanks, i'm pretty tough too! By the way , it seems like you're wearing my brothers tie " Orihime stated feeling on the tie.
" I did it for you ! " Ichigo replied as he picks up Orihime
" Hey Ichigo! What are you doing ? " Orihime asked blushing.
" This place is fucked up, jumping down would be alot quicker than searching for a staircase " Ichigo answered only to see Tobi come out of the hole.
" Going somewhere Ichigo ? " Tobi asked the Substitute Shinigami as he reveals himself without his mask.
Tobi appears without a single starch on him despite being violently thrown through Las Noches and hit with a massive explosion at point-blank range. The real Tobi has short, spiky, black hair and two Sharingan eyes , one of them greatly resembling Kakashi's Sharingan. Tobi's entire right-half of his face is severely scarred from an unknown event. He greatly resembles Naruto however instead of an aura of good, it's an aura of pure evil.
" Impossible, he was hit point-blank and all that happened was that he lost his mask . How can this even be possible ? That attack had enough force to kill even a top-tier Espada yet he's standing as if nothing even happened . Just how powerful is this guy if he can take the force equal to a hydrogen bomb and still stand unfazed ? " Ibiki said to herself as she stares in horror at Tobi's face.
" I must admit , that team attack was unlike anything i expected. By trapping me in that shield, i couldn't turn intangible and i was hit directly by the blast. The shield really amped up the explosive impact and the force of your attack was so strong that the barrier was hit back through all the floors of Las Noches and detonated while i was still there " Tobi explained to Ichigo.
" What the hell ? Impossible ! There's not even a single starch on you ! " Ichigo shouted as he stares at Tobi's real face.
" That aura, it seems amiss. He seems so evil yet a part of him feels like there was once good, who is he ? " Orihime said to herself.
" Don't discredit yourself too much! You shattered my mask and got a glance at my face and you did scrape my forehead a bit . I must say, you did well with that team attack but even with that, it wasn't enough " Tobi said to Ichigo as Ichigo stares at him unable to move.
" I can't move my body. What's with this aura ? It's filled with despair , such darkness and evil. Could he be more evil than Aizen ? His eyes are piercing my soul and twisting it . He looks like the Nine Tailed Demon Fox, could he be his father ? That would explain the monstrous levels of power, but this aura around him seems far darker than that of a Hollow and even more malevolent and evil than Hollow Ichigo and Naruto's " Ichigo said to himself as he falls to his knees.
" Ichigo ! " Orihime shouted only to be sucked into Tobi's right eye.
" ORIHIME ! " Ichigo shouted as he struggles to move shouting in despair.
" Don't fear Ichigo, i didn't kill her. I just sucked her into another dimension that only i can enter . You lose Ichigo ! " Tobi explained to Ichigo as he puts back on his mask.
" Orihime , damn you. DAMN YOU ! GIVE HER BACK ! " Ichigo shouted as he starts to transform .
" Yes Ichigo, give into the despair . Darkness is what makes you stronger, that rage within you , let it consume you, follow the darkness within your heart and let it consume you , kill all you friends " Tobi said to Ichigo as Ichigo struggles to resist the Hollowfication caused by the Sharraigan.
" ARRRAGH ! " Ichigo screamed as he transforms into his Bankai state against his will and gets covered within a black and red Reiatsu.
Meanwhile Shinji struggles to stand while Deidara has a large dragonhead poking out the mouth of C-2 and Skullak is charging up a Cero.
" Ordinarily i wouldn't want to gang up on an opponent but your Shinigami have destroyed my home " Skullak said to Shinji.
" Damn it , i can't move ! " Shinji said to himself.
" Once i kill you, i'm going to kill the son of the man who took my father's life as vengeance " Skullak stated as he charges up his attack.
" Let's get this over already , die ! " Deidara shouted only to feel a massive wave of Reiatsu create a shockwave which stops Deidara in his tracks.
" What's going on ? Where is this Reiatsu coming from ? " Skullak said to himself.
" Oh no, just when things can't get any worse , not again ! " Shinji said to himself as he stands up.
Meanwhile Hachigen is on the floor badly wounded by Hidan and struggling to get up.
" Ha, i was able to cut you . Once i ingest your blood, you're done for " Hidan said to Hachigen as blood drips on his scythe.
" Damn it , i was never any good at close quarters combat " Hachigen said to himself.
" Time for the ceremony ! " Hidan laughed only to feel a massive force wind knock him down and the blood from the scythe gets blown away.
" Oh no, he's transforming ! " Hachigen said to himself as he struggles to move his wounded knee.
Meanwhile, the Tessai clone is down on the floor wounded badly by Kakuzu's attacks while Kakuzu has lost 4 of his 5 hearts.
" Damn you, you cost me 4 hearts . It's such a pain really however i'll just to start replacing them with yours " Kakuzu said to the clone as he stabs his hand through the fake Tessai.
" ARRGH ! " the clone screamed as it disappears and then a shockwave occurs that causes
" It was a fake and what is this shockwave ? " Kakuzu said to himself as he struggles to move.
Meanwhile the real Tessai is worn out fighting Ulquiorra and Itachi and is at his limit as he reverts to sealed sword form.
" Looks like he's done for !" Itachi said to Ulquiorra.
" Let's end this ! " Ulquiorra replied only to feel the shockwave that is being caused by Hollow Ichigo.
" No , it can't be happening ! " Tessai said to himself as he sees the aura from a distance.
Meanwhile at the edge of the western end of Las is at her limit , she still maintains her Shikai but can barely move.
" Damn it , i've reached my limit so fast ! " Yoruichi said to herself as she sees the trio of Gin with hollow mask and Bankai, Tōusen in release form and Asura Path coming towards her.
" . Bankai: Suzumushi Tsuishiki: Enma Kōrogi (清虫終式閻魔蟋蟀,Cricket Final Form: Devil Cricket ) " Tōusen chanted as he uses his Bankai while still in his insect form.
" I can't see a thing ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
" Great, she can't evade now ! " Gin said to Tōusen as he charges up his Bankai with a Cero around it.
" We got you now ! " Tōusen said as he draws lime-green circles in the air with his claws.
" Time to put an end to this ! " Asura Path said to them as he charges up a Chakra beam from the canon in his right arm.
Suddenly the violent forcewave from Hollow Ichigo's Reiatsu shatters the Bankai dome to reveal to Yoruichi that she's about to be hit .
" Butō: Saishū Cero Naka Hebi Kurenai (舞踏, 紅最終蛇虚閃 Dance : Final Hollow Flash of the Crimson Serpent ) " Gin chanted as he extends his blade moving at 2,500 times the speed of sound.
" Los Nueve Aspectos ( Spanish for The Nine Aspects ) " Tōusen chanted as he causes a massive burst of sound-based concussive force to reverberate out with crushing power.
" Chakra Cannon " Asura Path chanted as he fires a massive blast of Chakra towards Yoruichi.
" Shunkō " Yoruichi countered as she uses the boost of power to move at 3,300,000 ft/sec (2,250,000 MPH ) to evade the attacks.
Meanwhile 100 meters above the 3,000 foot diameter hole , Kisuke is covered with wounds and is struggling to stand within the air while Aizen and Pein stand about to finish him off.
" Damn it , we seriously miscalculated ! " Kisuke said to himself as he struggles to stand.
" Now, you would know pain ! " Pein said to Kisuke as he charges up a mass of Chakra in his hand.
" Time to die a horrible death Kisuke ! " Aizen replied as he charges up black Reiatsu in his hands
However a sudden wave of destruction occurs and engulfs the area within a dustcloud.
" What is this ? " Pein said to himself as he feels a monstrous aura.
" Looks like Ichigo has fully hollowifed ! " Aizen said to Kisuke.
" Oh shit ! " Kisuke shouted.
" Pein, it's best we leave Kisuke alone. We don't want to be caught by that Hollow's Cero " Aizen said to Pein.
" Right, i used up too much energy fighting Kisuke and the others ! " Pein replied.
" Great, their backing down , i can still stop Ichigo before he fully hollowifes ! " Kisuke said to himself as he rushes to Ichigo.
" Bakudō # 84. Jūjigen Sutārifuto ( 十次元スターリフト Ten Dimensional Star Rifts) " Aizen chanted as he creates an illusion of a dark and warp-like background, full of dimensional rifts that resemble 10 stars. These stars surround Kisuke and keep him from moving.
" Damn it ! " Kisuke shouted.
" We'll watch as the monster goes and kills all of you here " Aizen said to Kisuke as he leaves Kisuke for dead.
Meanwhile Yoruichi sees Kisuke binded down .
" KISUKE ! " Yoruichi shouted as she rushes out to save him but she once again evades Gin's Bankai attack and Asura's missiles .
" You're opponents are right here Yoruichi !" Gin said to the dark-skinned ex Captain.
" Shit , Ichigo's on a rampage ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
Meanwhile at tower # 1 of Las Noches
Rose is badly wounded from attacks by Baraggan and Konan. Both of them are going to finish off Rose when they see a massive explosion from a distance and a wave of Reiatsu.
" What's going on up at Las Noches ? " Konan asked.
" Whatever it is, it seems like things are going to get much worse " Baraggan answered.
Meanwhile at tower # 2 of Las Noches
Kensei is barely able to stand as hundreds of Cerberus are with hundreds of wolves,each the size of normal wolves.
" Damn it, there are far too many animals here ! " Kensei said to himself as he gets back up.
" It's over now ! " Animal Path said to Kensei.
" Goodbye ! " Starrk stated as they are going to finish off Kensei only to hear the explosion and see a wave of Reiatsu.
" This isn't good ! " Kensei said to himself.
Meanwhile at tower # 3 of Las Noches
Love is at the bottom of the water dome barely able to breathe with his Bankai reduced to a sealed sword while Kisame and Harribel float above him.
" Looks like he's been weakened so badly, he can't even summon that mask of his " Kisame said to Harribel.
" Let's put an end to his misery ! " Harribel replied as she charges up a Cero only to feel the massive shaking within Las Noches and the waterdome shakes.
" What a high amount of Chakra , who's causing this ? " Kisame asked as he feels the shockwave.
Meanwhile at Sector #10, 1st floor
Mashiro in his release form goes to finish off Mashiro who's on the ground covered with bruises and blood when all of a sudden a massive shockwave occurs and causes Wonderweiss to fly up to the top.
" What's going on here ? " Mashiro said to herself.
Back at Las Noches rooftop
Hollow Ichigo emerges out of the smoke with long straight hair, reaching down to his waist, and a Hollow hole smaller than his previous one . He's decorated with markings stretching from the hole, across his chest and shoulders. He also has retractable claws on his fingertips and toes, small furry red tufts, two starting from his collarbone and stretching around his neck, and one each on his wrists and ankles, as well as seemingly white skin. He has a different Hollow mask and his face is shaped the same, it covers Ichigo's entire head and its markings are different as it has four spike-shaped marks stretched, two of them stopping by the forehead, and the other two stretching past the eyes and teeth, going past his chin and joining with the marks on his chest. There are also small marks resembling a heart, but with the top and bottom open, extending from the inner corners of his eyes. The mask has two long forward-pointing horns with black strips extending from their center towards the tips. Hichigo also has no tail and appears to be more human.
" AARRRGHWHHAGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared sounding more like a lion . Hollow Ichigo then swings his Bankai causally creating a massive 30 foot uplifting of the ground within a 1 mile radius of Hollow Ichigo .
" Good, now destroy everyone who is allies with you ! " Tobi said to Hollow Ichigo.
" RWWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it swings it's sword cutting off Tobi's s left shoulder and entire arm .
" WHAT ! ? IMPOSSBILE! The Hollow is resisting my control, more importantly my intangbilty isn't working anymore " Tobi shouted as he holds onto his shoulder.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he shoots a Cero at his mouth which travels to the end of the dome at the eastern end .
Meanwhile Ulquiorra and Itachi see the blast coming as well as Tessai and jump out of the way and evade it as the blast explodes leveling the entire western half of the dome of Las Noches which leaves a 4 mile diameter crater within the aftermath.
Meanwhile at the Medical Bay , Sector # 13 , 570th floor
Rey and his friends feel an immense shaking within the floors caused by the Cero detonated to the point the hospital loses electricity.
" What's going on ? " Rey asked as the life support he's on suddenly stops.
" Sounds like the dome of Las Noches was just destroyed " Sheelal answered.
" Are you sure ? If the dome is destroyed, then there's no power in Las Noches" Mila asked.
" It seems so, nothing is turning on ! " Sun Sun answered.
" Fuck , were all going to die here ! " Rey said to them.
" No, you can't die . You're like a brother to us ! " Apache shouted as she starts to cry.
" This sucks , everything is falling apart in this place ! " Mila shouted as she cries as well.
Meanwhile the doctors panic as they struggle to keep Grimmjow , Cirucci, Dordoni, and Gantenbainne alive.
" Shit, the power is out ! " said one of the doctors .
" Damn it ! " said another doctor .
" Shit , is this it ? Am i going to die here ? " Grimmjow said to himself as he looks around seeing that he's alone while the other Fracción look and try to comfort their master.
" Please Cirucci , don't die on us ! " Loly shouted as she holds onto the former Espada.
" We just got you as a master, please don't die ! " Menoly replied as she cries on Cirucci's shoulders.
" Sadly it looks like this is the end. Us Arrancars don't have healing abilities like Shinigami so most of us rely on medical tools, without the power grid, we're as good as dead " Cirucci explained to Fracción as she loses more blood. She's the first to die from loss of blood.
Meanwhile Fran Santonio tries to encourage Dordoni to live on.
" You can't die, fight it Dordoni senpai ! " Fran Santonio said to his idol.
" Sorry kid but this looks like the end of the road for me , it was nice knowing you " Dordoni said to Fran as he passes away from his injuries.
" DORDONI SENPAI ! " Fran shouted as he watches his idol die.
Meanwhile Gantenbainne is on his last legs as well and is struggling to fight it as well as the doctors.
" SHIT ! We were so close to healing them all, now with the power out , they're going to die " one of the doctors shouted.
" DAMNIT ! " another doctor shouted.
" Please don't die Gantenbainne, Skullak would be shocked to hear that you guys died " Aisslinger said to his friend.
" Sorry , i'm trying to fight it but it seems like i'm losing this battle. The combination of blood loss and high Reiatsu clashing is speeding up the process of death " Gantenbainne explained to them as he coughs out more blood.
" Damn it, everyone we know is dying ! " Aisslinger said to himself.
Back at the rooftop
Tessai, Ulquiorra and Itachi look at the destruction caused by Ichigo's Cero.
" Impossible, no human can possibly copy a Cero , just what the hell is he ? " Ulquiorra asked himself.
" This is bad, if that was just an uncharged blast, he would more than be able to level the whole place with a full power blast " Itachi said to himself.
" If he's not stopped, everyone is going to die ! " Tessai said to himself.
Back at the battle ground next to the massive hole created by Orihime and Ichigo, Tobi is holding his hand as his arm grows back.
" He's become berserk , no that bitch Inoue negated my Sharriagan . All my powers with the Sharriagan have been negated due to that attack but how did he transform without my command ? Could it be that ... " Tobi said to himself only to dodge a slash from Hollow Ichigo.
" RRRWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it comes after Tobi.
" It's just as i thought, the monster is trying to kill me . It's going by the instincts in it's heart , driven by the desire to rescue Orihime. It's completely different from the time it was back at Konoha , it's even different from the time in Karakura Town " Tobi said to himself only to see Hollow Ichigo charge up another Cero from his mouth.
" RAWWRARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires another Cero away from Tobi and aimed towards Konan and Baraggan. He fires two more aimed towards the 2nd and 3rd tower ruins.
Meanwhile at tower # 1 of Las Noches
Baraggan and Konan see a Cero heading towards them as well as Rose.
" Shit i got to get the fuck out of here ! " Rose shouted as he tries to run away.
" Respira ! " Baraggan shouted as he creates a massive wave of aging gas but the Cero explodes and still knocks Baraggan and Konan down from the concussive force of the explosion.
" Damn even blocking the blasts is not enough to stop it " Konan shouted as she's knocked down to the ground unconscious.
" Shit ! " Baraggan shouted as he falls to the ground also knocked out cold.
" What power ! " Rose said to himself as he falls to the ground out cold.
At the same time
Tower # 2 of Las Noches
Kensei sees the blast heading towards them.
" Fuck ! " Kensei shouted as he dodges the blast while Starrk and Animal Path are in the way.
The explosion hits directly and destroys everything within the path however the explosion was barely evaded by Starrk who only lost a left arm while the Animal Path wasn't so lucky and was blown to pieces with the blast as well as her summonings however the wolves also suffered a similar fate.
" Shit , Lilynette, LILYNETTE ! " Starrk shouted as he reverts back to normal but Lilynette is gone with the wolves.
At the same time
Tower # 3 of Las Noches
The blast hits everything within a 2 mile radius and destroys the waterdome. Kisame who absorbed most of the blast and shielded Harribel falls to the ground badly burned.
" I wasn't expecting the Cero to be that strong ! " Kisame said to himself as he reverts back to normal while unconscious.
" Damn it ! " Harribel said herself as she's knocked out cold by the shockwave and Love lies there also out cold.
Back at the rooftop
Tobi stares at the smokeclouds from Hollow Ichigo's Cero's which surrond the main building.
" This is bad, he's taking out every enemy ,one by one " Tobi said to himself.
" RRAWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he fires 3 Balas from his mouth.
Meanwhile Hidan is about to finish off Hachigen who's about to lick Hachigen's blood.
" Goodbye fatass ! " Hidan said to Hachigen as he's about to kill the fat Vizard only to be split in half by the Bala.
" What the hell ? " Hachigen asked as he sees the Bala explode within a 10 mile distance leveling everything within a 1 mile radius.
" Damn it ! " Hidan shouted as he struggles to move.
At the same time the Bala hits Hidan, Kakuzu is also hit directly by the Bala.
" NOOOOOO ! " Kakuzu screamed in agony as he's actually killed by the powerful explosion.
At the same time a Bala heads towards Skullak, Shinji and Deidara .
" Fuck ! " Shinji shouted as he uses Shunpo to escape
" Gotta get out of here ! " Skullak replied as he escapes leaving Deidara exposed.
" SHIT ! " Deidara shouted as he's blown to bits by the Bala,dying from the blast.
Hollow Ichigo then fires two Balas at the ground which smashes through the floor and heads downward .
Meanwhile at Sector #41, 137th floor
Hiyori is lying on the floor with all her Reiatsu drained and surrounded by 10 Zetsu clones and 10 Guerrero Calaveras as well as the real Zetsu and Rudbornn where they see a blast going through the floors.
" Shit ! " Both Rudbornn and Zetsu shouted as both are killed by the immensely powerful explosion.
" I'm done for ! " Hiyori said to herself as the blast heads towards her.
" Spiegelt ( German for Reflect ) " Ryūken chanted as he protects himself and Hiyori with a barrier from Hollow Ichigo's attacks which then disappears after a few seconds.
" You saved me ! " Hiyori said to Ryuken as she stares at him.
" Don't mention it ! " Ryuken replied as it's revealed that the blast leveled 528 floors and leveled several sectors.
Meanwhile at floor 118 , Sector # 12
Kukaku is trapped within Sassori's Iron Sand and can't move.
" Fuck, i can't move my body ! " Kukaku said to herself as she struggles to move.
" Time to destroy you ! " Sasori said to himself as he then sees a blast heading towards him.
" Shit ! " Kukaku shouted as the blast is about hit them .
The explosion levels everything within a mile radius leveling 528 floors and kills Sasori , however the blast doesn't kill Kukaku.
" Looks like i came in time ! " Isshin said to Kukaku revealing himself in his Bankai state and revealed he used his shield to block the blast.
" Cousin ! " Kukaku said to the large middle-aged Shinigami.
Meanwhile at the Sandlot
Lisa stares at the 3,000 foot diameter hole at the skydome of Las Noches and the 10 foot diameter hole 4 miles west of the much larger hole where Yammy's splattered remains lie within a massive 1 mile diameter , 1,500 foot deep crater from the attack. Unohana then walks over to heal her.
" Captain Unohana ! " Lisa said to Unohana as she struggles to move.
" Don't move Lisa, i'm here to heal the injured " Unohana answered as she grabs her and starts to heal the injured Vizard when Mashiro appears with Unohana.
" Lisa are you okay ? " Mashiro asked.
" I'm fine , i'm just have a broken pride for losing " Lisa answered as Unohana heals her up
" Don't worry , i lost my battle too ! " Mashiro stated while still maintaining her cheerful behavior.
" You both fought well and managed to live , that alone shows how strong the two of you are " Unohana replied as she finishes healing Lisa.
" You sense that ? " Lisa asked her friends as she sees the sky starting to crack and hear earthqaukes.
" This place is falling apart ! " Unohana answered.
Back at the rooftop
Hollow Ichigo pursues after Tobi with it's sword but Tobi manages to evade the attack.
" I can barely evade him ! " Tobi said to himself as he then sees Ichigo behind him.
Suddenly Wonderweiss bust out of the ground and punches Hollow Ichigo in the face while in his release form sending the hollow flying
" ... " Wonderweiss moaned as he sees Hollow Ichigo get back up.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it stares at Wonderweiss.
" Ryūjin Jakka Seal " Wonderweiss roared as it tries to seal Hollow Ichigo but it's not effective given it's not Yamamoto.
Meanwhile Aizen and Pein are watching from a distance.
" What is he doing ? " Pein asked Aizen.
" He's trying to seal Ryūjin Jakka ! " Aizen answered.
" Ichigo doesn't have Ryūjin Jakka ! " Pein stated.
" Exactly, Ichigo's Reiatsu is currently 50,000,000 RYK. It's as high as Yamamoto's power within his Shikai state and given Wonderweiss is programmed to attack Yamamoto and seal his flames, he thinks that Ichigo is Yamamoto " Aizen explained to Pein.
" Can't it tell the difference between Ichigo and Yamamoto ? The difference is pretty obvious " Pein questioned the former Captain.
" All forms of rationality, memory retention, speech, and intelligence were purposely removed to enhance his power. Because of this, Wonderweiss's personality is very childlike, comparable to someone with low functioning autism, the fact Ichigo is powerful enough in his hollow form to be compared to Yamamoto's Shikai is quite amazing, that means his powers are maturity well enough to complete my final plan " Aizen explained to Pein.
Meanwhile Hollow Ichigo slashes the midsection of Wonderweiss with a single swordstrike however Wonderweiss easily regenerates his wounds.
" Centurion (Spanish for Centurion ) " Wonderweiss chanted as he produces multiple large arms that can stretch to long lengths from his back and shoulders. Wonderweiss does 23,000 rapid speed punches which causes a series of powerful explosions that level everything within a mile radius however it does zero damage to Hollow Ichigo.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he slashes down Wonderweiss cutting him in half instantly killing him.
Tobi looks at Hollow Ichigo and then sees the hollow stare at him.
" It's best i retreat for now , with my Sharraigan sealed, i can't do much " Tobi said to himself as he opens up a Garganta and leaves the battlefield.
" RRWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he charges up a Cero from his horns.
Meanwhile Yoruichi, Gin and Tōusen stare at the charging Cero.
" This is bad ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
" If he fires a Cero of this size, we're all going to die ! " Gin said to Tōusen.
" Indeed , we need to do something ! " Tōusen replied.
" GYAYAYAYAHHHAHAHA !" Hollow Ichigo roared as it charges up a cero ball that is now 3 feet in diameter.
Meanwhile Kisuke is starting at the blast .
" Shit, i can't move ! " Kisuke shouted as he struggles to move .
"GYAYAHAHAHAHARAWHARAH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as it's Cero grows to be 6 feet in diameter.
Meanwhile Ulquiorra and Itachi see the blast charging up.
" It's best we leave here ! " Ulquiorra said to Itachi.
" Right ! " Itachi replied as he leaves with them while Tessai is stuck having to stop Ichigo.
" I got to stop Ichigo ! " Tessai said to himself as he rushes towards Ichigo.
Meanwhile Ibiki sees the Cero and she's being forced on her face from the Reiatsu.
" Can't breathe ! " Ibiki said to herself as she struggles to move.
" RAWWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he aims his blast towards Aizen and Pein.
" He's aiming at us ! " Pein said to Aizen.
" It looks like we might have some problems after all ! " Aizen replied as he draws his sword only to see Hollow Ichigo aim at Ibiki.
" Shit, he's aiming towards me ! " Ibiki shouted as she struggles to move.
" GYAYAHAHAHAHAWHAR !" Hollow Ichigo roared as it fires it's super powered cero at Ibiki who's a mile away from Hollow Ichigo.
" Shit ! " Ibiki screamed as the blast is about to hit her.
" Hogotsuki (保護月 Protecting Moon ) " Isshin chanted as he uses his sheild to block the massive 6 foot diameter Cero which pushes him back .
" He's holding back the Cero ! " Ibiki said to herself as Isshin manages to stand his ground while struggling to hold back Hollow Ichigo's Cero .
" Damn son, i wasn't expecting your hollow form to be this strong. Kurai Kishi Sōkō (暗い騎士装甲 Dark Knight Armor) " Isshin chanted as he gathers Reiatsu around him increasing his defense and allowing him to deflect the blast away from Las Noches. The blast hits 30 miles east of Las Noches and causes a massive explosion.
The explosion creates a massive 50 mile high , 20 mile diameter mushroom cloud looms over Las Noches as the blast dies down. There is now a massive 10 mile diameter , 3 mile deep crater 30 miles east of Las Noches with a dust cloud covering the fortress . The size of the explosion is the equivalent to 200 megatons, 4 times the power of the Tsar Bomba and the equivalent to the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.
Kisuke breakout of the Kidō and looks at Aizen and Pein.
" Isshin, you were a major lifesaver once again! " Kisuke said to himself as he looks at the destruction caused from a distance.
Meanwhile Ichigo in his Hollow From stares at Isshin
" RRWARGH ! " Hollow Ichigo roared as he comes at Isshin.
" It's sad that you can't recognize your father, oh well. Jūdengestu (充電月 Charging Moon) " Isshin chanted as he uses his shield to charge into Ichigo surrounding his body in Getsuga Tenshō energy and breaks the horns of his Hollow form and knocks Ichigo out cold and reverts him back to normal.
Meanwhile Shinji and Skullak look at what happened.
" It's the bastard who killed my father. He was able to defeat that monster in one blow, he's too strong for me to fight at the moment " Skullak said to himself as he leaves the dome and jumps down to the lower floors.
" Looks like they're giving up for now ! " Shinji said to himself.
Meanwhile Ulquiorra and Itachi see what happen and get away from an injured Tessai.
" It's best we check the damage to the palace and allow the enemy to retreat for now " Itachi said to Ulquiorra .
" Wise choice ! " Ulquiorra replied as he leaves with Itachi while Tessai lies there with his injuries.
" Looks like help has arrived ! " Tessai said to himself only to get swallowed by a large manta ray.
" Hang in there guys ! " Unohana said to them as Lisa, Kukaku, Hiyori, Mashiro and Ryūken ride on top of the flying manta ray.
Meanwhile Aizen and Pein look at Unohana flying around and Isshin at the scene .
" Looks like they won the battle but lost the war ! " Aizen said to Pein.
" They attacked here in vain, we still have Orihime ! " Pein replied as they just watch the events unfold .
Yoruichi then sees Unohana flying on her Shikai manta ray and goes to land on the ground to pick up Yoruichi.
" Looks like you need to get treated Yoruichi " Unohana said to Yoruichi.
" How did you get here ? " Yoruichi asked.
" Ryūken made a old fashion portal to reach Las Noches thanks to Isshin, i came along to aid with the healing and evacuation process " Unohana answered as she opens her manta ray's mouth to reveal that Love, Rose, Kensei and Hachigen are inside .
" Here's Ichigo ! " Isshin said to Unohana as he puts Ichigo in the mouth of the Shikai summoning.
" Allow me to come in two ! " Shinji replied.
" Same here ! " Tessai stated.
" Finally we can leave here ! " Ibiki replied as she hops on the back of Mizunkai.
" But first here's a going away present for you Aizen , Getsuga Tenshō(月牙天衝, Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer) " Isshin chanted as he creates a massive cutting wave which leaves a 660 foot wide fissure which cuts Las Noches in half from the center which divides Las Noches . Aizen and Pein dodge the blast as they stare at the fissure.
They all look at Unohana flying away with the Vizards and others as they go through the Senkaimon back to the Soul Society.
" Isshin, you really threw a monkey wrench in my plans yet again . Damn you ! " Aizen said to himself as he looks at the ruins of Las Noches.
Half the dome of Las Noches main building within the east side has been leveled from Hollow Ichigo's Cero and battles throughout Las Noches leveled nearly half the palace leaving it in a critically damaged state.
Hokage Palace
9:30 P.M. Naruto and Hinata walk to Tsunade's office to ask her something with the toads being at the office.
" What are you two doing here ? " Tsunade asked.
" I was wondering if i can bring Hinata along with the training tomorrow " Naruto answered with a question.
" Naruto, i understand that you love her now however only you're capable of becoming a Toad Sage " Tsunade stated.
" Why ? " Naruto asked her.
" To use Sage Mode, one must combine their own Chakra with the power of Nature energy. This level of power is beyond most humans, only those who are above the level of a Jounin can use Sage Mode " Fukasaku explained to Naruto.
" I guess you have a point but still there has to be something she can do because she doesn't want to leave me and she wishes to get stronger " Naruto stated.
" Neji said that he had nothing more to to teach me and with Kurenai being pregnant ,i have nobody to teach me that and i want to be with Naruto . I know i'm not strong enough to handle Sage Mode but there must be something i can learn right ? " Hinata asked Shima.
" I can enhance your Gentle Fist power by teaching you Frog Kata " Shima answered.
" Shima , only Sage Mode users can use that fighting style " Fukasaku stated.
" Still even if she doesn't learn Frog Kata, the training alone would amply her physical strength by at least 1000% and she can train to master whatever techniques she learned " Shima explained to Naruto and Hinata.
" So you're going to actually let her train too ? " Naruto asked them.
" Sure ! " the elder toads answered.
" Fine, then tomorrow you two would go to Mount Myōboku, you would return in a month to measure your progress " Tsunade said to the two,
" No problem Grandma Tsunade, i'll become strong enough to become Hokage " Naruto replied as he and Hinata leave the room.
Meanwhile at Karakura Town
Isshin in his base state gets off the manta ray as well as the Vizards after recovering from his wounds.
" So you're stopping here ? " Kisuke asked .
" Yep, i'm still not ready to reveal myself to Ichigo just yet " Isshin answered.
" You can't keep it hidden from him much longer ! " Shinji stated.
" I know but it's for the best for now ! " Isshin replied as he goes back home .
" Make sure Ichigo gets safely back to the Soul Society " Shinji stated .
" No problem ! " Unohana replied as she heads to the Soul Society with Kisuke, Yoruichi, Tessai and Kukaku.
Forest of Menos
10:00 P.M . Sasuke look around to see all the Hollows dead around him with his Reiatsu surging to the point ordinary Hollows are dying around him. He drops the bracelet as he looks around and sees Ashido's badly wound along with a pile of bodies which includes the Menos Forest Guardian.
" Why... Why did you betray me ? " Ashido asked.
" Who said i was ever on your side ? I used you so i can get used to this newfound Hollow powers " Sasuke answered.
" Damn ... You ! " Ashido stated as he passes out from bloodloss and dies.
" I'm an avenger , my purpose is to kill Itachi and restore my clan " Sasuke said to himself as he walks out of the forest.
Captain Commanders Chamber
10:30 P.M. Ichigo after being out for over an hour is being scolded by Yamamoto himself who is pissed off by Ichigo's foolishness.
" YOU IDIOT ! What the hell were you thinking ! " Yamamoto shouted at Ichigo.
" You endangered the lives of countless people with your arrogance " Byakuya stated with his stoic tone.
" YOU DESTROYED MY LAB YOU SON OF A BITCH, I'M GOING TO DISCEET YOU TO HELL " Mayuri shouted in intense anger but is held back by Shunsui and Ukitake.
" Calm down, if you kill him, he can't help us against Aizen " Shunsui stated.
" Yeah, remember he's one of our best chances of wining the war ! " Ukitake replied.
" That idiot almost killed my Vice Captain ! " Soifon shouted.
" That idiot kinda help us all ! " Yoruichi replied.
" What are you talking about ? " Soifon asked.
" Someone leaked info to Aizen about Operation Halcyon, either that or he was spying on us. Either way it was a setup from the start, had we went with the original plan, we would've been jumped and killed " Kisuke explained to the captains.
" So it was destined to fail ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" Aizen had everything planned out however when Ichigo came into Las Noches by himself, he was able to kill 5 Espadas and destroy nearly half of Las Noches in his Hollow form . He was also able to push back Aizen's forces and we made a great retreat back here " Yoruichi explained to the group.
" It was still reckless and idiotic of him to do such a thing. He could've been killed " Soifon stated.
" I agree , but then again we're talking about the same guy who came here to rescue Rukia not to long ago . It was inevitable he'll try something this stupid again " Byakuya explained to the group.
" Either way it doesn't matter. This little event just shows how much you need to improve Ichigo, if you ever hope to get Orihime back you must increase your power and master that Hollow within " Yamamoto stated.
"... " Ichigo mumbled as he looks down in shame and silence.
" Looks like you need rest Ichigo , you're dismissed ! " Yamamoto replied as Kisuke walks with Yoruichi to escort Ichigo to his house.
Back at Las Noches rooftop
Tobi returns back to sandlot of Las Noches where a gathering of bodies has occurred . Deidara's right arm which is the only part him remaining of him, Kakuzu who has only his head left , Hidan who's still alive but cut in half from the Bala blast, Sasori with his body rebuilt but his core has been shattered and Zetsu who's been decapitated. Yammy's body is back at his pre released state but cut in half and Rudbornn has been killed again. Ninorta has also placed within the pile as well as Baraggan's Fracción .
" Looks like we have quite alot of dead people ! " Gin said to Aizen.
" Indeed ! " Aizen replied.
" Problem is that Orihime used up all her power with that attack she used on me combined with Ichigo's attack , she also revived too many people and used up her Reiatsu. It would take her several days to recover it " Tobi explained to Aizen.
" Well until then, i entrust you to keep her in the human world within your dimension . A human can't be within the spirit world without any spiritual energy , if they are, they can't return to their human body and without her human body, she can't use that power of hers . She needs to stay within your world for at least 3 days " Aizen explained to Tobi.
" Fine, don't worry about the dead . Pein can easily take care of them right ? " Tobi said to Pein.
" Very well my master. I'll bring back the dead for you ! " Pein replied.
" This should be interesting ! " Gin stated.
" Indeed,we're about to see the powers of a god ! " Tōusen replied.
" Gedō: Rinne Tensei (外道・輪廻天生の術Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique ) " Pein chanted as he generates a green orb which then forms into a gate known as the King of Hell and it opens up to shoot out 175 green orb to hit 175 slain Arrancars however more orbs pour out and spread around Hucedo Mundo as well.
Las Noches 500 meters from the gate
3 orbs fall into the corpses of 3 slain hollows , Kurage , Ciclope and Mantarei who all been killed by Ichigo when he cam into Las Noches.
" We're alive ! " Mantarei said to his comrades.
" Indeed Mantarei ! " Kurage replied back to the manta ray.
" We survived the battle ! " Cliope state as it beats it's chest like a retard .
Meanwhile at the 100th Floor sector 43
The Construcción team lie dead near massive 1,000 foot diameter, 1,000 foot high hole within the area caused by Yammy's blast . The Construcción team were all killed by Ichigo being cut down by his Bankai. Green orbs hit all their bodies with all their wounds healed and them brought back to life.
" What the hell ? How am i alive ? " Suku Rappa asked as he feels his head on his shoulders and body.
" We've been all given a second chance " Obarodo answered as he looks at his chest and doesn't have a stab wound there.
" Shit, is this the power of Lord Aizen ? " Haitawa asked.
" It has to be, no one can be as godly as Aizen! " Mikkusu Masuta answered.
" We're lucky to be loyal soldiers of Aizen's army! " Suka Benja stated.
" Indeed ! " Rongu Hauru replied.
Meanwhile 2,500 feet from Aaroniero Arruruerie's Palace
24 Arrancars within a leveled bar caused by Ichigo's attack lie dead within the ruined bar. They're all revived by the green orbs.
" We're alive ! " all the Arrancars shouted .
" Aizen's power is Grand and Glorious, he revived all of us , all hail Lord Aizen " Ragun said to everyone as he bows down as well as all the Arrancars in the bar.
Meanwhile at Menos Forest
The Guardian of Menos Forest and several of his most powerful Adjuchas lie dead in a pile caused by Sasuke's attack . The green orbs hit them and they're all revived .
" We're alive ! " one of the Adjuchas said to another.
" I could've sworn we were killed by that kid but it turns out we lived " another Adjuchas stated.
" This must be Lord Aizen's power at work ! " the Menos Guardian replied.
Meanwhile at the otherside of the forest , Ashido lies there in a pile of blood dead when a green orb hits him and heals all his wounds while bringing him back to life .
" I'm alive but how ? I was stabbed in the heart and neck, i should've bled out to death " Ashido said to himself as he looks around the cave.
Meanwhile within West Las Noches
Buresuto Ofu who was killed by Kensei is revived as well as all of his men .
" We're all alive ! " said the Arrancars.
" How is it that we survived ? " Buresuto Ofu asked himself .
Meanwhile within East Las Noches
Sandou Webb with Ravijji and Slazer rushes to were Swindoru was killed off with a scientist on his side . Swindoru was cut in half by Love during there battle. The Arrancar Scientist has dark purple hair, yellow eyes, and wore an eyepatch over his left eye. He's wearing a purple uniform and his mask remains are on the side of his head, which look like rectangular horns. His left hand has a shoulder mounted canon .
" He's dead Shokku Webu ! " Sandou said to the purple haired scientist.
" I was afraid of that , no way he could've survived the battle " Sokku replied only to see a green orb hit the body and within seconds the body is restored back to life in one piece.
" What the hell ? I'm not dead ! " Swindoru said to the two.
" Impossible, he was just dead a second ago ! " Sandou shouted as the Arrancar stands back up.
"I don't even know how to explain this phenomena, it's beyond the level of science ! " Sokku replied.
Meanwhile within North Las Noches
Onsurōto wakes up after being slashed in half revealing that he was revived.
" I'm alive but how ? This must be Lord Aizen's power ! " Onsurōto said to himself.
Meanwhile at the 990th Floor , Sector 10
Burak , Saido and Sukorupo wake up to see that they narrowly escaped the collapse of the eastern half of the dome which left behind a 4 mile diameter , 1 mile deep crater through the main building of Las Noches that cuts through 264 floors throughout that dome.
" What an explosion ! " Burak said to Saido.
" It's amazing we escaped , had we stood in sector 16, we would've been blown to bits " Saido stated.
" Whatever hit there seriously damaged the dome. Had not for the dome, Las Noches would've been obliterated completely " Sukorupo replied as he stares at the massive hole left behind by Hollow Ichigo's Cero.
Suddenly they see Ranpeji walking around in the air looking at the devastation that is sector 16 as he approaches the sector they're in.
" How did he survive that explosion ? " Burak asked.
" Didn't Luna.. i mean Ibiki snap his neck ? " Saido asked.
" All i know is that we best leave before he notices us ! " Sukorupo answered.
Meanwhile at Szayel Appro's Lab Ruins
Szayel stands there looking at the ruins of his lab which is now within a massive crater caused by the aftermath of Ichigo's battle with him . He looks at 43 dead Arrancars led by Fran Santonio and 12 of his dead Fracciónes, one of them killed by Szayel himself.
" What a mess , it's going to take alot of cleaning up around here " Szayel said to himself only to see green orbs hit all the bodies and all of them are revived .
" I'm alive ! " all the Arrancars shouted as they all shout in joy that they survived.
" Impossible, how are they all being revived ? " Szayel asked himself only to see Lumina, Verona and all his Fracción alive.
" Szayel ,Master Szayel we're alive ! " said the two bouncing twins.
" How is this even possible ? " Szayel asked himself as he stares at all the people coming back to life.
Meanwhile at Sector # 13 , 570th floor
Harribel head to the powered down hospital where she learns about the death of Rey.
" No, it can't be ! " Harribel said shocked to see Rey dead.
" We tried everything but we couldn't save him ! " the doctors said to the 3rd Espada as she looks at her Fracción cry for his loss.
" No, he can't die ! " Mila shouted as she covers her eyes.
" He was too young to die ! " Apache stated as she cries on the cold lifeless shoulders of Rey.
" This is terrible ! " Sun Sun replied as she uses tissue to wipe her face.
" This is all my fault, had not for me being a coward, he wouldn't have died " Sheelal shouted as he cries.
" He really is dead ! " Harribel said to herself only to see a green orb hit him and heal up his wound.
" What's going on ? " Rey asked as he's back from the dead .
" You're alive ! " Sheelal answered.
" Impossible, you had no pulse ? How are you are and what happened to your wounds ? " Mila asked.
" It doesn't matter how he's alive, the most important part was that he's alive" Sun Sun answered.
" Fuck , i felt nothing now i'm back here in the hospital. Talk about Near Death Experience " Rey said to them.
" Yes, he's alive ! " Apache shouted as she hugs Rey.
" What godly phenomena can be reviving the dead at this rate ? " Harribel said to herself.
Meanwhile the doctors panic as they see Grimmjow , Cirucci, Dordoni, and Gantenbainne alive from the dead.
" Shit, they're all standing ! " said one of the doctors .
" Impossible, they weren't breathing a second ago " said another doctor .
" Shit , how am i alive ? Was it that Inoue girl ? " Grimmjow said to himself as he looks around seeing that he's alone while the other Fracción look and try to comfort their master.
" Cirucci is alive ! " Loly shouted as she holds onto the former Espada.
" Yes, she pulled through ! " Menoly replied as she cries on Cirucci's shoulders.
" No way , i'm alive but whereas that Inoue girl ? She's nowhere nearby yet i got revived " Cirucci said to her Fracción .
" Then who the hell revived you ? " Loly asked.
" It must be Lord Aizen this time, after all he was the one who defeated the God King in a duel " Menoly answered.
" It must like the time Aizen used his other Hōgyoku to revive us 20 years ago " Grimmjow stated.
" Yeah, the one that was caused by the Shinigami raid. He saved all of us at the cost of his Hōgyoku 20 years ago " Cirucci replied.
Meanwhile Fran Santonio sees Dordoni rise from the dead.
" You survived Dordoni senpai ! " Fran Santonio said to his idol.
" Looks like i still have what it takes to live " Dordoni said to Fran as he gets back up and dances in joy.
" DORDONI SENPAI !" Fran shouted as he watches his idol dance around and joins him in the dance.
Meanwhile Gantenbainne gets back up feeling fine and able to move around.
" Shit! That was far too close for comfort ! " Gantenbainne said to the group around him.
" You're alive ! " Aisslinger said to his friend.
" Looks like death has lost this round ! " Gantenbainne stated.
" Yeah ! " Demoura replied.
Back at Las Noches rooftop
Deidara has been completely revived with his arm restored , Kakuzu has also been revived with his head restored. Sasori has been revived and is able to move his body as well as Zetsu.
" I'm alive , yes . Nobody can fuck with me ! " Deidara shouted with joy .
" It seems that i still live on ! " Kakuzu stated.
" Hey asshole , how about you sew me up ? " Hidan shouted.
" Great, i have to deal with fixing you again ! " Kakuzu replied.
" That must be Pein's immensely powerful Gedō: Rinne Tensei (外道・輪廻天生の術Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique ) , it revives whoever has been killed within a certain radius, restoring any injury to them " Black Zetsu said to his white half.
" Interesting , i never thought it would be this powerful " White Zetsu stated.
" Orihime has the potential to rival this power once she fully mastered it " Black Zetsu replied.
Yammy's body is back alive as well as Rudbornn .
" Damn , i can't believe i died twice and came back from the dead Ulquiorra " Yammy said to his friend.
" You shouldn't leave yourself open to attack too often, what if they can't bring you back then 3rd time around ? " Ulquiorra asked Yammy.
" Skullak ! " Rudbornn said to his friend as they hugged.
" I heard you were killed twice ! " Skullak said to Rudbornn.
" I was hit by a Bala while i was offguard ! " Rudbornn stated.
" Damn that Kurosaki , his father divided then palace and his son nearly killed all the Espadas " Skullak replied as he clenches his face.
" Ninorta , you're alive ! " Telsa said to Ninorta as he hugs his master.
" Looks like that Kurosaki kid failed to kill all the Espada ! " Ninorta replied as he looks at his healed body.
Baraggan looks at his revived Fracción .
" Looks like you guys have been revived " Baraggan said to the group.
" We have been revived ! " Choe said to Baragan.
" Just goes to show that it's great to serve the true king of Hucedo Mundo " Findor replied.
" All hail King Baraggan ! " Arivawa said to the group.
" Long live the king ! " Charoltee stated.
" All hail king Baraggan ! " Gigo replied.
" How can that human Pein be this powerful ? He has the ability to undermine the lines between life and death " Baraggan asked himself.
Meanwhile Starrk sees Lilynette reappear and revived from Pein's Gedō: Rinne Tensei .
" You're alive ! " Starrk said to Lilynette.
" But how ? " Lilynette asked .
" It's because of that man with orange hair with the bug eyes. He's using some power to revive the dead and heal the injured " Starrk explained to Lilynette.
" Incredible ! " Lilynette replied.
Meanwhile Aizen, Gin and Tōusen look at Pein who stops the technique and drops to the ground notably worn out and on his knees.
" That was an incredible technique , i must say, you even impressed me with your power Pein " Aizen said to Pein.
" Thanks, the power of Gedō: Rinne Tensei (外道・輪廻天生の術Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique ) reinfuse new life force energy to the dead bodies of those who have died. With their rejuvenated bodies acting as an anchor, the individual souls are ripped out of the dimmeson of the afterlife, returning back to their physical vessels. It restores any form of injury ranging from stab wounds to decapitation and would even restore a target that has been vaporized and repair clothing as well. It's the power of a god " Pein explained to Aizen as he tries to stand.
" I was afraid this was going to happen Pein, you exerted yourself with that technique " Konan said to Pein as she arrive at the rooftop.
" It had to be done ! " Pein replied.
" You can't abuse that justu Pein , that requires a massive amount of Chakra and takes part of your lifespan with you " Konan explained to Pein.
" I must do it to preserve his plans ! " Pein replied.
" Amazing, that Rinnegan of his allows him to briefly shatter dimensions like the Hōgyoku . It's amazing that there's a human out there who's capable of shattering dimensions to this extent. Not since 20 years ago have i seen a mass revival on this scale " Aizen said to himself.
Kurosaki Clinic
11:00P.M. Ichigo arrives at his house where the window is at with Kisuke and Yoruichi. Ichigo is feeling down and depressed about the failure to rescue Orihime and the fact he was close to dying .
" I'm sorry for botching the rescue plan of Orihime " Ichigo said to the two of them.
" Don't blame yourself Ichigo. If i was in your shoes and if the enemy captured Kisuke or Soifon, i would've done the same thing " Yoruichi replied.
" Besides Aizen already saw through our plan from the start. Had we went through the original plan, we would've all died , in a way you're rampage screwed up our original plan to rescue Orihime but the same time it saved our lives . He could've killed us all outright or worse, hold us captive as well and use us as ransom to get you, still hopefully you realize just how much further you need to go to take on the Espada " Kisuke explained to Ichigo.
" I fucked up big time. I was arrogant and foolish to charge in head on, i had no idea the Espadas were that powerful or that Aizen's army was that complete . I was so close to getting Orihime but i failed , that bastard with the mask took him . I'm going to take him down once i get stronger " Ichigo said to Kisuke.
" We'll pick you up in the morning so you can begin your Vizard training " Kisuke stated.
" Right ! " Ichigo replied as he hops into his window only to see Tatsuki there staring at him while Kon was asleep.
" Looks like i finally found you Ichigo ! " Tatsuki said to Ichigo.
" Tatsuki! You can see me ? " Ichigo asked Tatsuki.
" I know what you are , you're one of the Shinigami aren't you ? " Tatsuki answered with a question.
" How do you know that ? What happened to Kon ? " Ichigo asked only to be thrown the green candy there and see Tatsuki with the soul glove.
" Your friend told me everything ! " Tatsuki answered.
" When did Kon tell you this ? " Ichigo asked.
" The day this town was attacked ? I saw everything, hell i even heard the Shinigami talk about what they were to some of the spiritually aware humans here. " They told me about you , everything about you " Tatsuki answered.
" What are you talking about ? " Ichigo questioned his best friend.
" They told me that you gained powers from Rukia and that you fought hollows along with the Shinigami, They told me about how you avenged your mother from the monster known as Grand Fisher, they told me about how you broke into the Soul Society to save Rukia. I know everything that you've done in the last 5 months. I'm not the only one, Keigo and Mizuiro also know about you. I knew you were on a mission so while you were gone i knocked out this Kon modsoul and used the glove in Rukia's closet to extract him out so i can finally get to talk with you " Tatsuki explained to Ichigo.
" So you know everything that has happened ? Still why do you care ? " Ichigo asked.
" Isn't it obvious, i want you to give me powers . I want to rescue Orihime , i can't stand the fact that these bastards can come to our town and trash the place and steal our best friend. You were able to sace Rukia with the powers she gave you right ? Why can't i do the same . I want to make sure that nothing bad happens to my friends " Tatsuki explained to Ichigo with tears in her eyes only to be hugged by Ichigo who has tears in his eyes.
" I can't give you my powers Tatsuki ! " Ichigo answered.
" Why ? Why can't you give me your powers ? I thought we were best friends . Don't you care for me ? Do i mean anything to you ? " Tatsuki questioned Ichigo only to see Ichigo put on his mask and sense a massive wave of Reiatsu which drops Tatsuki to the ground.
" This spiritual pressure, it's like that monster that attack Karakura Town a month ago " Tatsuki said to Ichigo as Ichigo removes his mask.
" See why i can't give you my power ? I barely have any control of it . My power is different from the one Rukia gave me , it's the powers of those hollows. I'm sure you must of learned about that by now " Ichigo answered.
" I see. So i can't help you ? Can't i gain powers from Chad or Uryū ? " Tatsuki asked.
" I'm sorry but i doubt they can give you powers either , Tatsuki i know you care but it's best you stay out of this . I'm going to get Orihime back soon " Ichigo stated.
" Ichigo, don't fail and do your best ! " Tatsuki replied.
" You can stay in my house for tonight . Tomorrow, i'm going to control my inner Hollow completely " Ichigo responded.
