Sasuke's Hideout
11:30 P.M. Sasuke and his group are resting up after a major battle within the South Konoha Forest. They were previously ambushed by Guren who wanted to take revenge on Sasuke for the death of Orochimaru. Sasuke and his group fought Guren and was able to successfully defeat Guren but before they can finish her off, Rinji saves her and they manage to escape. Sasuke and his team have settled within an inn within a small town 25 miles south from the battlesite where Karin is healing their injuries. Karin is wrapping bandages around Sasuke's arm after having him healed up as well as healing Suigetsu and Jūgo.
" Are you feeling better ? " Karin asked Sasuke.
" I'm fine ! " Sasuke answered.
" She was a tough customer, Guren really proved herself to be a serious challenge . I have a long way to go to become the strongest swordsman in the world " Suigestu explained to the group.
" I can barely control my power yet without it, i would've been killed off by Guren " Jūgo stated.
" Don't worry guys we're almost done with our mission, once we get what we came here for, i'll promise you all a taste of the power you all want " Sasuke replied.
" Why were you holding back Sasuke ? " Karin asked him.
" What are you talking about ? Sasuke was fighting her with all the power within his body " Suigestu answered.
" She's right, i held back intentionally . I wanted to test the limits of my power without fully transforming, the power given to me by Lord Aizen " Sasuke answered.
" You could've fooled me, i thought you full transformed into your curse mark level 2 state " Suigestu stated.
" I underestimated my opponent , even with my increased power, she was tougher than i thought " Sasuke explained to the team.
" To think Sasuke really got this much stronger and he hasn't even shown the full extent of his powers, no wonder he was able to beat Orochimaru " Suigetsu said to himself.
" We should rest for tomorrow, we'll need to be at full strength . Guren probably has more than that guy who saved her as her bodyguard and they probably are already aware that we're after the secret documents to Orochimaru's curse mark project " Sasuke said to the team.
" Okay, we'll make sure nothing goes wrong and well get those documents at all cost " Karin replied.
Guren's Hideout
Guren is being treated by Rinji from her slash wound she substantiated in her fight with Sasuke a few hours ago . Guren took a large slash across her chest from Sasuke when she attempted to fight his whole group by herself using her Crystal Labyrinth Jutsu to contain them and have her clones attack Sasuke's team however a combined assault of Jūgo, Sasuke and Suigetsu as able to shatter her technique.
" That was far too close , any second later and you've would have been diced to pieces " Rinji said to his girlfriend.
" Sasuke and his group were alot stronger than i thought ! " Guren replied.
" It's hard to believe that you would lose in a contest of power, you were even capable of beating Kimimaro back in the days " Rinji stated.
" The only member of Orochimaru's army that stalemated with me was Kabuto. To think Sasuke has surpassed me in such a short amount of time " Guren explained to her lover.
" It's too soon to do something like that , your wounds are too deep for any form of fighting to occur. Even with my Medical Ninjutsu skills, i can only close up your wound and remove all infectious material from the wound , you move now and it would open . You also lost alot of blood and need a blood transfusion " Rinji explained to Guren.
" I see, i had no idea i was this badly injured in battle ! " Guren replied.
Suddenly Yukimaru appears to see Guren who's lying at bedside with bandages around her chest.
" What happened to Lady Guren ? " Yukimaru asked Rinji.
" She got sick ! " Rinji answered.
" Is she going to be alright ? " Yukimaru asked.
" She'll be better in the morning so get some rest kid " Rinji replied.
" Hopefully nothing bad happens ! " Yukimaru said to Rinji.
" Don't worry, as long as i'm here, i'm not letting anything bad happen to her " Rinji replied.
Meanwhile at Menos Forest
Skullak and his team recover from their injuries after her battle with Kusaka. Skullak looks at his lover Cirucci as they're both within a spring oasis taking a bath together .
" How are you injuries doing Skullak kun ? " Cirucci asked.
" It's fine, the water of this oasis helps heal all the injuries on my body and recovers my Reiastu as well " Skullak answered.
" It's funny you remember this place after 150 years ! " Cirucci stated.
" This is where we had our first date, long before we ever became Arrancars when we were both Adjuchas " Skullak explained to Cirucci.
" Brings back memories doesn't it ? " Cirucci asked her lover as she inches closer to him.
" It does ! " Skullak replied as the two are about to kiss until Yin and Yang appear to talk with the two.
" What are you two doing here ? " Cirucci asked the Arrancars only for both Ying and Yang to kneel and bow before them.
" We pledge our loyalty to you " Yin and Yang answered.
" That's strange, weren't you girls fighting against us not long ago ? " Skullak question the twins .
" We apologize for our transgressions against you guys " Yang answered.
" So how were you defeated and who defeated you ? " Skullak asked them.
" Cirucci was the one the defeated us and spared us " Ying answered.
" Why did you work for Kusaka ? He didn't seem accepting of you guys " Skullak questioned the two.
" We were working with master Kusaka in overthrowing the Soul Society " Yin said to the group.
" So you guys also wish to destroy the Soul Society ? " Cirucci asked the two.
" Wait, isn't Kusaka a Shinigami ? Why did he wish to destroy the Soul Society ? " Skullak asked the twins.
" Master Kusaka wanted revenge on the corrupt Soul Society and their Central 46 government for the crime they stuck him for " Yang answered.
" What crime was he charged with ? " Cirucci asked .
" He wielded the same Zanpakutō as someone else. As a, the Central 46 members ruled that two Shinigami cannot possess the same Zanpakutō. By the ancient laws of the Shinigami, such a situation was not permissible. He was promised an honorable duel with the other wielder of the same Zanpakutō however the government he trusted his life to, the people who were his allies turned on him and the Shinigami who he fought had him killed by the secret forces to maintain the Zanpakutō for his greedy purposes " Ying explained to the duo.
" So in the end, even the Shinigami aren't loyal to their own ? What barbaric savages. All the Shinigami are nothing more than selfish and greedy bastards who would go as far as betray their best friends " Cirucci stated.
" Wait, how did he survive ? " Skullak asked Yin.
" We don't know for sure , Kusaka believed that it was the power of the Ōin that spared his body from complete destruction. We found him as well, we too hold a grudge against the Soul Society " Yang answered.
" So you guys were affected by them as well ? " Cirucci asked.
" 105 years ago, a captain from the Gotei 13 came to our old home village and destroyed it. Me and Ying were very young Adjuchas and barely remembered the man . He killed our entire family off and left , we hid the best we could but we were helpless against him and were suffocated from his immense Reiastu " Yang explained to the group.
" Wait, so you two also lost your family to a Shinigami raid ? I know how it's like to lose an entire family . Who was this Shinigami ? " Skullak asked them .
" The Shinigami was wearing a black robe with a symbol of ten on it's back. It's hilt and blade looked like and ordinary Zanpakutō but the power that it was emitting as on par with that of an average Captain's Bankai " Yin stated.
" That was the same person who killed my father ! " Skullak shouted.
" That's why we joined with Kusaka first, he had alot of power and potential to grow stronger. We didn't like his attitude towards Hollows and he often looked down at us as if we were inferior beings but we needed each other. We needed him to help get stronger and he needed us to get stronger. We were able to achieve our Arrancar forms by eating 5,000 Hollows and several Shinigami, we were close to carrying out our revenge " Yang explained to them.
" Now with Kusaka dead, we can't hope to get payback on the Soul Society alone " Ying stated.
" We want you to help us destroy the Soul Society and bring them down for their crimes on the Hollow race ! " Yang replied.
" Sorry, you got the wrong person . I'm not the leader of the Hollows, Lord Aizen is . Aizen is the one who will destroy the Soul Society and make it so the Hollows can regain their humanity back and live along humans again. If you want to destroy the Soul Society, you must join Lord Aizen and help him destroy the Soul Society " Skullak explained to the two.
" We will gladly join the crusade to put an end to the Soul Society ! " both replied as they hug Skullak.
" Very well then, starting tomorrow morning, you guys would become Cirucci's Fracción " Skullak responded.
Western part of Hueco Mundo
11:55 P.M. A mysterious figure walks across the dark skies of Hueco Mundo 5,000 miles west of Las Noches. The man is wearing a white hooded robe however his face can be seen. The man has a thin blue mustache, and notably sunken eyes. His mask covers the left half of his upper face and he walks around holding a normal katana with a diamond-shaped guard with the sheath and grip being yellow. The man is revealed to be Patros, a guy who was killed a week ago by Cirucci Sanderwich.
" How am i still alive ? How is it that i survived that attack of hers ? It's surreal , i could've sworn i was dead. Aizen would regret being so reckless for now i'll finally take him down as well as all of Las Noches " Patros said to himself as he arrives at the building.
Patros looks at a massive fortress that looks similar to Hueco Mundo in size and scale but the fortress is a bit weathered and half buried within the sand. Two guards stand at the entrance of the massive fort. One is a tall, broad-shouldered, extremely muscular Arrancar that wears heavy armor over brown trousers and a tan vest, closely-cropped black hair, and dark red-eyes. His Zanpakutō take the form of a war-hammer. The other guard is shorter the other one and has thin, stringy grey hair and wears a relatively light breastplate with spikes at the shoulder. Underneath the armor , he wears long-sleeved white tunic and tan britches tucked into a pair of dusty boots. His Zanpakutō take the form of dual blades.
" Halt outsider , who are you ? State your name ! " the tall man asked.
" My name is Patros , you must be Mordarth's guards ! " Patros answered.
" What business does an outsider want with Master Mordarth ? If you wish to speak to master, you have to go through the mighty Corrin " the muscular Arrancar stated.
" Not to mention you also have to go through me as well ,Two swords Vanton " the short Arrancar guard replied.
" I don't wish to fight anyone , i merely wish to make an alliance with you guys " Patros said to the group.
" Explain to us why should we let you in ! " Corrin said to the Arrancar.
" Because i have a plan that can destroy Las Noches and take the Hōgyoku from Sōsuke Aizen " Patros answered.
" I see, then proceed forward ! " the guards replied.
After a short walk , Vanton shows Patros to the throne room and let him in. Patros then sees the king of Western Hueco Mundo.
" Master Moradarth, we have a guest ! " Vanton said to the king as the king walks to the throne.
The Arrancar leader appears to look like a middle-aged muscular, man who has shoulder-length blonde hair, green eyes with flecks of black, and a neatly trimmed reddish-gold mustache and a goatee. His mask remains are circlets around his head, like a thin crown, with two fangs protruding on wither side of his eyes. His clothes are similar to Barragan's except his coat is longer and only has a thin trim of black fur along the collar. He keeps his coat held closed by a blood-red sash. He wears under a belt made of gold chains with a gold medallion in the shape of a dragon's head with ruby eyes. His Zanpakutō took the form of a spear. The shaft is black and the spear head is icy-blue. He keep it hidden half the time in his throne like his brother did with his axe.
" Aizen's Arrancar minions, what do you want from me ? " Moradarth asked.
" I came to you to join your side Lord Moradarth ! " Patros answered as he kneels down and bows to the king.
" What thinks i'll accept a low-class peasant like you ? " Mordarth asked.
" I have intel on Aizen's Hōgyoku and a plan to take that for yourself lord Mordarth " Patros stated.
" So that's why an Arrancar like you have came to the exile lands. It's been 20 years since i seen an Arrancar here from Aizen's fortress " Mordarth replied.
" To my understanding, you been forming your own Army with the Hōgyoku blueprints you stole from Aizen and been preparing to retake this land from Aizen. I've always believed that Hueco Mundo is for Hollows and only for Hollows and there's no way we should allow a Shinigami to rule over it " Patros explained to the king.
" I see, so you've been enlightened as well . Very well then, spend the night here, tomorrow you would be sent to test your loyalty " Mordarth said to Patros.
" Very well then your Majesty ! " Patros replied.
" Petros Liones ! " the king shouted as he calls forth his minion.
Patros then sees a Arrancar coming out of the door. The Arrancar is of medium height, but also has a broad build and heavily muscled. The man has shortly cropped black hair at the side, but a mohawk was deep red at the top tired into a tail at the back by a leather cord. He's not wearing anything on his chest except for a leather jerkin kept unfastened. The man also wears a crimson sash wrapped around his waist under a leather belt, tanned hide trousers, and black boots. His mask remains are two gauntlets covering the back of his hands and wrap around his wrists, but not covering his fingers . His Zanpakutō is a double-edged blade with a sheathe hanging from a series of leather cords as the side. The pommel is shaped like the head of a roaring tiger.
" What do you want master ? " Petros asked.
" Petros Liones, escort him to the guest room ! " The King commanded as one of his men appear to grab Patros.
" Yes your majesty ! " Petros replied as he walks Patros to his room.
The Next Day
Friday October 5, 2001 6:00 A.M.
Soul Society
Yamamoto sees Kisuke at his room with some stunning evidence against Kumoi of the Kasumiōji Clan.
" What the hell are you doing here so early Ex Captain Urahara ? " Yamamoto asked Kisuke.
" I have some urgent news about the Kasumiōji Clan " Kisuke answered.
" What is it Kisuke ? " Yamamoto questioned the ex Captain.
" We learned who's behind the attempts at Rurichiyo's life , it's the one of the clan leaders serving the Kasumiōji Clan, Gyōkaku Kumoi " Kisuke explained to the Captain Commander.
" Gyōkaku Kumoi ? This must be a joke , he's aiding with the funding of the additional defense project in protecting the Soul Society " Yamamoto stated.
" That's what he want you to think! " Kisuke replied.
" Do you have any proof of this treachery ? " Yamamoto asked.
" I managed to find these lying around ! " Kisuke answered as he brings Yamamoto three Bakkōtōs that were retrieved from the corpses of Ryu, Genga and Jinnal. He hands over the Spear, Rapier and Scythe to Yamamoto.
" So that's where these weapons came from ? " Yamamoto asked Kisuke.
" What do you mean ? " Kisuke asked.
" These are the Bakkōtōs that we searched for nearly 300 years for, the ones who claimed the life of my former 3rd seat " Yamamoto explained to Kisuke.
" Former 3rd seat Shin'etsu Kisaragi, he was one of the best fighters in the Gotei 13 . He found out a group of people within the Kasumiōji Clan was involved in producing the Bakkōtōs and went to bring them down . Central 46 denied my request to investigate the compound. Nonetheless, Shin'etsu offered to sneak in anyway. While there, a group of rebels found him and forced a Bakkōtō on him " Yamamoto explained to the hat and clogs Ex Captain.
" So what kind of Bakkōtō was it ? " Kisuke asked.
" It was a special Bakkōtō designed to cut through anything ,even with a Reiastu as high as my own. It was a Bakkōtō designed to kill me directly. Having no choice, i unleashed my Shikai to kill him and eliminate the threat he posed. Despite being a 3rd seat, he was able to unlock Shikai and learned Bankai recently before his death , the power he gained from the Bakkōtō applied his power greatly so he needed to be token down as fast as possible " Yamamoto explained to Kisuke.
" Did he have any relatives or family members left ? " Kisuke questioned the Head Captain.
" Not that i'm aware of , but that doesn't matter. The Bakkōtō's are too much of a threat to the security for the Soul Society . I have decreed a decision to send a raid team to track down and arrest Gyōkaku Kumoi and bring down the rebel fraction of the Kasumiōji Clan " Yamamoto answered.
" What about the rules ? " Kisuke asked.
" The security of the Gotei 13 is at risk, Gyōkaku Kumoi must be stopped " Yamamoto answered.
Meanwhile at Guren's Hideout
Guren and Rinji begin to leave with Yukimaru who's fully recovered . Guren has bandages on her chest and struggles to move around.
" How's your wounds doing ? " Rinji asked .
" It's better however it's hard to move ! " Guren answered.
" It's best we avoid fighting for a while until we retrieve the kid and get healed up by Kabuto " Rinji stated.
" Healed up by that asshole ? I rather be dead than to be saved by him " Guren replied.
" Guren, are you alright ? " Yukimaru asked as he walks into the room .
" I'll be fine , just don't hug Guren for a while " Guren answered.
" Okay ! " Yukimaru replied.
" Looks like you recovered from your fever kid , good thing because we need to leave here now " Rinji said to Yukimaru.
" Okay, it looks like today would be a beautiful day to go out to pick some Camellias " Yukimaru replied as he runs outside.
" He already has a heads start over us , we should get going " Rinji said to Guren.
" In a minute ! " Guren answered as she starts to think to herself.
" Very well, i'll make sure no one attacks here " Rinji replied as he watches Yukimaru.
Back in Las Noches Throne room
Aizen with Gin and Tōusen look at the returning teams bringing back the Arrancars from the several day hunt that they had looking for Arrancars.
Team 3 is the first to arrive Dordoni, Fran, Gantenbainne, and Aaronireo walk into the Throne Room with six hollows. One of them is a large Boll weevil, another other is a large poison dart frog, one of them a large cicada and another one is an iguana/dragonfly mixed hollow. Another Hollow is a giant tarantula and a large buzzing wasp.
" We did well capturing the Hollows Lord Aizen ! " Fran said to Aizen.
" Luckily , we didn't need to fight them at all ! " Dordoni replied.
" We didn't want to end up dying against you guys , we knew you guys were too strong for us " Drill Bit stated.
" Don't blame yourself Drill Bit , we're here to make you one of us , not kill you " Gantenbainne replied.
" It's a smart move we chosen not to take you guys on " Spitter stated.
" Yeah, would be sad if we had to kill you all like we did with all the foolish Hollows that challenged us Spitter " Kaienrio replied.
" How did you guys get so powerful ? " Shika Dakon asked.
" They were able to get their Arrancars without even having to fight them " Gin stated.
" It's impressive how they acted without force " Tōusen replied.
" Very good Team Dordoni ! " Aizen said to the group only to see the second group come into the throne room.
Team 2 which consists of Grimmjow , Nnoitra, Tesla, and Yammy have defeated two Hollows. One of the Hollows is a large armored pill bug like Adjuchas and the other was a large mosquito Adjuchas. Both Hollows are out cold and injured from Grimmjow and Nnoitra.
" We did it, we captured 2 Adjuchas ! " Grimmjow shouted as he sits down next to the incapacitated Adjuchas.
" All thanks to me ! " Nnoitra replied as he shows off his Hollow.
" Please, you barely did shit you weak ass motherfucker ! " Grimmjow stated.
" Ha, you forget who's far stronger than you ! " Ninorta replied as Grimmjow stands up and faces Nnoitra.
" Bitch please, i'm stronger than you already " Grimmjow said to the skinny Arrancar.
" You think you're better than me ? " Ninoitra shouted.
" You had to cheat to get your position , i earned my position fair and square " Grimmjow stated.
" Once again , it doesn't matter how i earned my position , i'm still stronger than you " Ninoitra replied as they go to fight each other.
" You morons forget that i'm the Zero Espada, i'm stronger than both of you " Yammy shouted as he flexes his muscles only to punched out by Grimmjow and Ninrota.
" You never learn ! " Tesla said to Yammy as he puts the two unconscious hollows on the ground.
" They're both heavily injured ! " Aizen said to the Nnoitra and Grimmjow.
" These guys need serious healing right away ! " Gin stated.
" It's typical for idiots to do this , we should've sent someone out more competent to assist Yammy and Tesla " Tōusen replied.
" What did you say ? " both Grimmjow and Nnoitra shouted.
Suddenly Skullak walks into the room with Yang and Yin with Cirucci, Loly ,Menoly , Asillsinger and Demoura . Skullak has bandages around his chest with his battle with Kusaka .
" What happened to you ? " Aizen calmly asked.
" I was able to bring back these two ! " Skullak answered.
" Those are real Arrancars ! " Dordoni stated.
" How did he find natural Arrancars ? " Kaienrio asked.
" How did they evolve from Hollows ? " Fran questioned Skullak.
" I found them after fighting a Shinigami that processed an Ice Zanpakutō and killing him in battle " Skullak explained to the group.
" Ice Zanpakutō ? You mean Captain Hitsugaya ? " Aizen asked.
" No, this guy has purple hair and he was older than the current Captain of Squad 10 " Skullak answered.
" I see, Sōjirō Kusaka. He was one of the students in the Shino Academy , he was a very talented Shinigami who was killed off by Central 46 because he had the same Zanpakutō as the current Captain of Squad 10 . He must've been somehow reverted into a Hollow due to the botched execution caused by the shattering of his soul chain , he must've began Hollowfying shortly before dying and out of some strange phenomena ended up in Hueco Mundo " Aizen explained to the group.
" Still how were you injured by someone so weak ? " Gin asked Skullak.
" The Shinigami consumed the power of a Vasto Lorde and gained Hollow powers to amplify his strength and power , he was planning to take revenge on the Soul Society by stealing the Ōin but he got token over by his Hollow powers and i killed him to save these two " Skullak explained to Aizen.
" I see, so Kusaka seeked revenge with the Ōin ? It seems understandable given the way they treat their own . Kusaka started out as an idealist who wished to protect and uphold Soul Society however they pit him against his best friend and they had him killed off . He was one of the many victims of the Soul Kings corrupt rules and polices. The very reason i couldn't stand to be associated with the Soul Society anymore. Their rules are what cost many people their lives , i lost everything to that dreadful Soul King. This is why i left the Soul Society and i started to form my army so i can bring down the army of the Soul King " Aizen explained to his men as he gains a slight tone of anger.
" Shall i tell you about the information of the Ōin Lord Aizen ? " Skullak asked.
" I already know about the Ōin, i plan to break into the King's dimension using the Ōken with the power of the Hōgyoku to make myself even more powerful than the Soul King. The Hōgyoku once it's reawaken would give me enough power to kill all of Squad Zero singlehandedly so i would have no problems taking the Kings seal myself. Fusing that power with the Hōgyoku, i would take down the king and reform this world " Aizen explained to the Arrancars.
" So what did the Soul Society take from you Lord Aizen ? " Yin asked him.
" Why would you go against the Soul Society that you used to be a part of ? " Yang questioned the Arrancar Army leader.
" They took my family, my friends , everything i held precious to me. You're aware about the Balance of Souls right ? " Aizen answered.
" You mean that bullshit Soul Reapers talk about ? " Yang asked.
" Yes, that Balance of Souls turns out to kill souls to keep the order. My Family and my village was one of the victims of this balance. I spent nearly 150 years pretending to serve the Soul Society and having to deal with their laws, it was their injustice that made me leave the Soul Society. I developed this Hōgyoku to basically get payback on those who continue the foul practices of the Soul King " Aizen explained to the new recruits.
" And that's why i serve Lord Aizen . He too has suffered the same injustice as i have and he wants to exact his revenge on them . Aizen will become the Soul King and bring us freedom " Skullak stated.
" We both humbly accept the cause and we'll help you take down the Soul Society ! " Yin and Yang both replied.
" Now to get to business in hand. Congratulations for bringing us another batch of natural Arrancars . The rest of the Hollows would stay here and get transformed into Arrancars " Aizen commanded as everyone leaves the room.
Kisuke's Shop
8:00 A.M. Soifon , Yoruichi, Ibiki ,Kenryū and Enryū wait for Kisuke to arrive at the shop when he gets back.
" We've been given permission to aid with the raid of the Kasumiōji Clan Manor to arrest Kumoi " Kisuke said to the group.
" Good, now we can make sure that Kumoi would pay for his crimes against the Soul Society " Kenryū stated as he gets up only to be stopped by Kisuke.
" You're Rurichiyo's bodyguards, your job is to protect her , besides you guys need to recover your Reiastu " Kisuke said to them.
" You're right, besides we'll just get in the way anyways ! " Kenryū replied as he sits back down.
" So it's time we gear up and prepare for our counter assault ! " Soifon said to her Vice Captain as they both get up.
" Indeed, we 're here to arrest those involved within the conspiracy ! " Ibiki replied.
" Hold it, we need to find their place first , once i pinpoint their location with this phone i got from them , we can bust them " Kisuke stated as he goes to his computer to track down the location of the enemy.
" What about us Kisuke ? " Kon asked .
" You mean going to school today ? Not a chance, they're might be more assassins out there and we can't risk them damaging Ichigo's body " Kisuke answered.
" I see, that means i'm staying here too but what about the cover ? " Ririn asked.
" Don't worry , i have all that covered with Ryūken " Kisuke answered.
" Where would i be ? " Kon asked.
" You'll be in Isshin's house on standby ! " Kisuke answered.
Meanwhile at Squad 10
Hitsugaya and Rangiku are preparing to aid in the arrest of Gyōkaku Kumoi with 12 seated officers with them.
" So captain, what's the plan ? " Rangiku asked.
" Once Kisuke gives us the orders to raid the palace, we'll attack the place and arrest all the criminals there " Hitsugaya answered.
" So are we the only ones attacking the manor ? " Rangiku asked.
" Yes, we'll be aiding with the arrest along with Squad 2, we don't need the entire Gotei 13 here especially since we need to rebuild the Gotei 13 army from the damage it suffered under the Konoha Invasion " Hitsugaya explained to Rangiku.
Izuru walks into the room and goes to talk to Hitsugaya.
" Captain, i want to come along ! " Izuru said to Hitsugaya.
" What are you talking about ? You're not one of the squads assigned to assault the manor " Hitsugaya stated.
" But you might need me to heal people there in case of any injuries " Izuru replied.
" Izuru has a point, there's no telling what the enemy has set up now and people might be injured " Rangiku explained to the Captain.
" Fine, you can tag along to aid the assault ! " Hitsugaya replied as they all walk out of the room .
Meanwhile at Kumoi's Hideout
Kumoi learns the news of the Gotei 13 assembling a raid on the mansion .
" Kumoi, they've assembled a raid on us, they're now coming towards us " one of the ninjas said to Kumoi.
" What ? ? ? SHIT ! Our plan has been compromised ! " Kumoi shouted.
" Damn Kisuke ! He must've been the one to out us ! " Amagai shouted.
" What's with this ? You promised me that you would take care of this mess " Kumoi shouted only to be grabbed by Amagai.
" Shut up, we haven't lost the battle yet , we can still win this ! " Amagai yelled at the old man.
" Calm down Shusuke, we need to keep our calm in this ! " Kifune stated.
" We still have each other ! " Hanza stated.
" You have a point, we can still pull this though ! " Kumoi replied.
Meanwhile at Orochimaru's Secret Lab
Rinji , Guren and Yumkimaru arrive back at base with a Giant Bat guiding them to the base somewhere at Kusakagure. Kabuto comes out walking out of the cave. Guren is holding on to her chest and is still feeling the pain of her wounds.
" So you summoned your bat to fly here ? " Kabuto asked Rinji.
" Had to, Guren was too injured for her battle with Sasuke " Rinji answered.
" So he's found out that i'm still alive ? " Kabuto asked.
" Not likely, Guren attacked him and injured his friends however she was hit by Sasuke's attacks and was rendered incapable of fighting so we retreated in the cover of night and made our way back here " Rinji explained to Kabuto.
" Well it seems like you guys lost him for now. I'll be back to bring back supplies from the hideout within the Land of Mountains so we can begin the procedure " Kabuto stated as he walks away from the cave.
" How long would it take you ? " Guren asked.
" 10 hours, i'll be back after the sun has set ! " Kabuto replied.
" Guren ! " said a large man behind Guren as he hugs her only to be pushed off her.
" She's injured Gozu ! " Rinji said to the big guy .
" Sorry ! " Gozu replied.
" Let's carry her back to the cave !" Rinji said to the brute.
" Right ! " Gozu replied as he carries Guren back inside.
" Is Guren going to be okay ? " Yukimaru asked .
" Don't worry, she'll be fine, she just needs rest ! " Rinji answered.
Back at Kisuke's Shop
Soifon , Yoruichi, Ibiki ,Kenryū and Enryū wait for Kisuke to report the location of Kumoi's hideout
" I found his location " Kisuke said to the group.
" Where is it ? " Kenryū asked.
" They have a hideout within West Rukongai District # 45 " Kisuke said to them.
" There's a tunnel that goes from there to the Kasumiōji Clan Manor that acts as an emergency evacuation tunnel incase the Soul Society is attack. After the attack from Arturo Plateado 1,000 years ago, Central 46 allowed the construction of evacuation shelters that stretch out throughout the Rukongai. There only opened during a time of emergency , those tunnels are only used during wartimes, he must've made his secret hideout there " Kenryū explained to Kisuke.
" So let's call for the assault against them ! " Soifon said to Kisuke.
" Already ahead of you ! " Kisuke replied as he goes to call for the Gotei 13 to alert them of where Kumoi is at.
Konoha
9:00 A.M. Shizune and Tsunade are watching Sakura trying to cut the leaf with her Chakra .
" I still haven't found my element ! " Sakura said to herself as she struggles to find out her own elemental Chakra.
" Sakura is really trying hard to get stronger, isn't she . Then again with Naruto growing in power, Sakura refuses to fall behind in power " Tsunade said to Shizune.
" Indeed , she's putting alot of effort into her training ! " Shizune replied when suddenly the head of the Konoha Cryptanalysis Squad arrive with Yamato.
" What is it ? " Tsunade asked.
" The portal is complete ! " the head of the Konoha Cryptanalysis Squad answered.
" You mean the portal to the Soul Society ? " Tsunade asked shocked by the news.
" We got a portal running now thanks to the team's hard work , we're not sure if it can go to the Soul Society at the moment but we'll try to see what we can do " Yamato explained to the blonde haired Kunoichi .
" I need to see what this portal is all about ! " Tsunade replied as she goes with the team which causes Shizune to come along .
" So you found a way to go to the Soul Society ? " Shizune asked.
" We're about to find out soon enough ! " Tsunade answered.
At the same time
Las Noches
9:00 A.M. Inside the fortress , all the Fraccións and Numeros meet at the auditorium. All of them then see Skullak walk into the room to talk to them
" Why have you gathered us all here ? " Loly asked.
" It's because it's in regard of your training ? We all remember the tragic events that occurred Monday night right ? " Skullak answered with a question.
" Most of us was nearly killed by the substitute Shinigami, we suffered heavy casualties because we weren't strong enough. The Shinigami as we speak are training to get stronger for the upcoming Winter War which would be the judgement day of the world and the deciding factor for the survival of the Arrancar and Hollow Race. If we fail, if Lord Aizen falls and were not their to protect him, we lose everything and we're all dead " Skullak explained to the Arrancars.
" We'll not let those monsters destroy us all ! " Sun Sun said to the Arrancars.
" Those damn Shinigami took my family and i can't allow that to happen to countless other Hollows " Gigo shouted.
" They're a bunch of gutless cowards with no ethics or values while claiming they're morally superior to everyone " Findor stated.
" And they think they're mightier than Lord Baraggan ! " Choe replied.
" That's why i've going to put everyone through training to improve the strength and speed of each fighter, for now until the Winter War, all Fracción must awake at 6:00 A.M. to being a series of training montages and once we're done you should all grow in 's being the training with basic hand to hand training. Choose your partner and begin to spar with that person " Skullalk explained to the group.

" Now for the two hollows caught by Yammy's team, let us introduce our new Arrancars. Arrancar # 960 Retrax and Arrancar # 443 Skeeter " Skullak said to the audience as the two Arrancars come out.
Retax appears as a muscular Arrancar with short silver hair and red eyes. He wears a standard uniform and his mask remains is a small plate on his forehead with horns. His Hollow Hole is on his neck and he wields a spike ball with a chain as his Zanpakutō similar to Omeada's Shikai.

" And finally, two new female Arrancar who are twin sisters, Yin and Yang " Skullak said to the group as the twins appear towards each other.
" This is awesome sis ! " Yin said to her sister.
" We finally have people who are like us here ! " Yang replied.
" We need to have these sparring matches to test the skill of the current Arrancar and the newly acquired Arrancar before we get into serious training " Skullak said to the Arrancars as they all cheer for him ,
Meanwhile at the Hokage Palace
A team of scientists finished constructing the portal to the Soul Society when Tsunade walks in to see the progress.
" How does this thing work ? " Tsunade asked the scientists.
" We managed to use over 12 Gigawatts of power to keep this thing going and a massive supply of Chakra but we managed to successively create a hyper dimensional portal . One that can go to any part of this world and to the dimension where the Soul Society is at " the scientist explained to Tsunade.
" Any part of the world ? Is such a thing even feasible ? " Yamato asked the scientists.
" The technology of this portal is unlike anything experienced in the Shinobi world . It's almost a miracle they haven't slaughtered us all after all this time given they can sent an entire battalion to assault us within less than a few minutes " the head of the science department stated.
" That explains how 1,500 Shinigami easily attacked the village with barely any warnings or how 2 Shinigami can easily break into the village in the first place " Shizune replied.
" We can be dealing with a far greater threat than we realized , it also explains how fast they were able to capture most of the Tailed Beasts in just a period of under 2 days just like Jiraiya reported . That means even Naruto can be in danger at this point " Tsunade said to the group .
" Going by the computer, it has every known location of the 5 Great Nations and key areas such as the Village Gates, the Kage Palace entrances and even the Diyaimo manor. Any of these points can be traveled here within less than a minute despite the hundred of miles of distance between the villages " the head of the science group explained to Tsunade.
" That's madness, it explains how they were able to take down even the Kazekage and bypass his security so easily, it explains the hit they put on me with two of their best assassins and explains perfectly how they can breach through the Land of Iron's Conference Summit so easily with barely any detection. The efficiency of the Soul Society is staggering. There's no way one nation can beat an army this technologically advanced " Tsunade explained to the group.
" They even have powerful fighters in the form of androids that look like real humans but in reality they modified their bodies and combined it with they're already immense Shinigami powers. I fought two people like that and nearly died with each fighter being stronger than the other. If those are the kind of fighters were up against, we need to extremely careful planing if we hope to survive this war " Shizune explained to the scientists.
" We barely managed to get this portal up and running with the limited resources we have, we barely have the raw resources or the technology to produce androids or anything the Shinigami have at this point. We need to break into the Soul Society and manage to get as much intel as possible and then plan an attack hitting all the major targets before they can attack us and most importantly, we must learn about the power of Captain Commander Yamamoto and asset the level of danger he posses at his current state. With only 2 Tailed Beasts left and 7 in his possession, we're doomed if he was to somehow use all that power combined at once " Tsunade explained to the alliance.
" We need to give these portals a good test to see if they work before anything " the head of the science department stated.
" I'll make a Wood Clone to go in incase this turns out to be a failure or a setup" Yamato replied as he creates a clone of himself.
" So how is this used ? " Tsunade asked the scientists.
" It's used similar to the Fourth Hokage's Hiraishin no Jutsu (飛雷神の術Flying Thunder God Technique) but on a far larger scale. While not nearly as convenient ,fast or as powerful when used in combat it's transportation capabilities and range are far superior to Minato's Space Time Ninjustu. The Shinigami seem to achieve this level of teleportation and hyper dimensional travel with their Zanpakutō's but with the changes made to kunai thanks to the formula Minato used on his kunai and with that combined with this high-tech computer, we can send you to any point of the world and even to the Soul Society and being the counter assault " the scientists explained to the group.
" Still something doesn't seem right, it seems a bit too easy ! Even if Kakashi was the one to get us this intel from the enemy, why would the enemy just have intel of that lying around ? This could all be a giant trap and we can be taking a massive gamble " Yamato stated.
" That's all the reason we have to try this out ourselves. We can either get what we were looking for or make the largest mistake ever " Tsunade replied.
" Very well then, i'm ready with my clone ! " Yamato said to the group.
" Take this Kunai, without the special mark, no one can open the gate and return back " the scientists said to Yamato.
" One question . Is Mount Myōboku listed as a location ? " Yamato asked.
" No! The targeting computer for the database doesn't seem to have narrowed down the location, they only have areas they were going to target or have already been at all this time . Naruto is safe for the moment in the mountain " Tsunade explained to Yamato.
" That's a sigh of relief .. for now at least ! " Yamato stated.
" Which area shall we travel first ? " Shizune asked.
" Let's try Kumokagure first ! " Tsunade answered.
" Okay , locking on to the area now ! " the computer programmer stated as they lock on to the location.
" Prepare to teleport , stab the kunai in the air " the head scientist said to Yamato.
" Right ! " Yamato replied as he uses the kunai to stab the air near the portal which then opens up the gate and then Yamato walks through to go straight to the Raikage's office.
Raikage's office
9:30 A.M. 800 miles northeast of Konoha , A is busy exercising with weights in his office when he sees a door suddenly appear in front of his office.
" What the hell ? " A asked as he drops his weights shocked to see the door appear.
The door takes the form of a traditional Japanese waiting room entered through a Shōji before opening up revealing to be Yamato at the otherside as he looks with shock that he's standing right at the Raikage's office.
" What the hell ? I got all the way to Kumokagure this fast ! " Yamato said to A shocking the Raikage.
" That's Minato's Space Time Ninjustu, how the hell were you able to use it ? " A asked Yamato.
" It's a long story , i'll let the Hokage explain to you when she gets here " Yamato answered.
" This is madness, i thought only the Fourth Hokage had that power to shift dimensions " A stated.
" Same here ! " Yamato replied.
Back at the Hokage Palace
Tsunade then sees Yamato come to her and looks at the monitor to see A talking to Yamato.
" The operation was a huge success ! " the head scientists said to the group as they all cheer in amazement of this miracle .
" I can't believe it , 800 miles crossed within several seconds ! " Tsunade said to herself shocked by the revelation.
" They can reach this world that fast ? " Shizune asked amazed at what they just done.
" I still can't believe it was done so easily ! " Yamato answered bewildered by the fact they crossed dimensions.
" Yamato, try to get your clone to draw back . I'm going into the office myself to talk with the Raikage " Tsunade said to Yamato.
" Right ! " Yamato replied as he has the clone return in under 10 seconds while Tsunade picks up a kunai with the space-time formula and travels through it with the kunai to the Raikage's office.
Meanwhile at Mount Myōboku
Naruto is within the Toad Oil Waterfall where he's in a meditative state trying to gather Nature Energy to form Senjustu where he gains enough of it to turn the upper half of his face scaling and warty and his eyes into that of a frog as he sees Nature energy flow around him in the form of a white aura.
" I saw it ! Hell yeah ! " Naruto shouted as he starts to see nature energy .
" Looks like he's managed to feel some natural energy ! " Fukasaku said to himself.
" Lord Fukasaku, i think he's gone without eating for too long , i think it's time for some food " Gamaichiki said to Fukasaku.
" I agree, Naruto boy, it's time for a break! Let's get some food ! " Fukasaku stated.
" Who's amazing ? !I'm amazing ! Damn Straight! " Naruto replied as Gamaichiki past them some bugs.
After a while Naruto, Gamachiki and Fukasaku are finished eating some bugs.
" That was a good meal right Naruto ? " Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" Yeah , it was pretty good ! " Naruto answered.
" Ma'am's cooking is the best ! " Gamakichi stated.
" Damn Straight ! " Fukasaku replied.
" I actually enjoyed eating bugs. At this rate, i'm never going to be human again " Naruto said to himself.
" Naruto, i want to see you lift this statue using only Ninjustu Chakra right now " Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" Right ! " Naruto replied as he tries to lift the statue with his own force but it's not even bulging.
" Good Naruto, now try lifting the statute one more time ! This time with Senjustu Chakra" Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" Right ! " Naruto replied as he goes back to put Toad oil and waits 5 minutes to activate Sage Mode again .
" Prefect Naruto boy! Try lifting the statue once again ! " Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" Right ! " Naruto replied as he tires to lift the statue but he still struggles to lift it.
" Come on , you can do it Naruto ! " Fukasaku said to Naruto .
" Can't give up... Must do this to ...become Hokage... BELIEVE IT ! " Naruto shouted as he manages to successfully lift the 5,000 ton, 50 foot high statue
" You did it Naruto ! " Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" That's right, i rock ! " Naruto replied as he tosses the statute down.
" You idiot ! Don't treat our ancestor like that ! " Gamachiki shouted at the blonde Shinobi only to see Naruto accidentally topple some statues.
" That kid is catchin' on far quicker than Jiraiya boy ever did. It took Jiraiya 3 years just to get to the point this kid achieved in just 3 days , he's also alot more thick-headed and moronic than Jiraiya boy ever was " Fukasaku said to himself.
" Oops ! " Naruto said to the old man.
" Now go pick up all those statues ! " Fukasaku said to Naruto.
" Damn it ! " Naruto replied as he collapses from all the exhaustion done to his body.
Meanwhile at the other side of the training ground. Hinata manages to climb up the 2,500 foot mountain while carrying 5 heavy rocks each weighing 5 tons on her back and manages to climb all the way up with them.
" I did it ! Yeah, i managed to do it ! " Hinata said to Shima.
" I must admit , i wasn't expecting you to do it so fast " Shima said to Hinata as Hinata stands up on the peak.
" Now what's my next training ? " Hinata asked Shima as she falls down to the ground collapsed from the exhaustion of Chakra.
" Let's eat first, my bugs would get cold if you don't eat them " Shima answered.
" Right ! " Hinata replied as she lies on the ground.
" Her determination is so strong. It's almost as strong as the one i had for Fukasaku back 800 years ago when we trained with our master ! Could she love Naruto boy this much " Shima said to herself.
Meanwhile at the Vizard Hideout
Ichigo is trying to control his hollow within the chains around him hollowfying his body .
" I can do this , i can do this ! " Ichigo said to himself as his body starts to stabilize the foam like substance around his body.
" He's doing it ! " Love said to Shinji.
" Don't celebrate so soon ! " Kensei stated as Ichigo starts to lose control .
" Shit, come on, i must maintain control ! " Ichigo said to himself as he struggles to control his inner Hollow.
" He's losing control ! " Lisa said to the group as Ichigo starts to lose his grip on his Hollow form .
" I can't let it take me over ! " Ichigo said to himself as he struggles to maintain control longer.
" Ichigo stop it, you can control it that long " Hiyori shouted.
" Shut up, i'm not giving up ! " Ichigo shouted as he struggles to resist the takeover.
" You're pushing yourself too far , if you use up too much power you've turn into a Hollow for sure " Rose shouted.
" Ichigo, you stupid head, stop this ! " Mashiro shouted.
" Shut up, i'm not giving up ! " Ichigo replied only to lose control.
" Shit , he's Hollowfying . Hachigen quick ! " Shinji shouted.
" Shit , i can't handle this ! " Ichigo shouted as he starts to go into his first Hollow form.
" Hachigen, dispel it ! " Shinji shouted as Ichigo's body starts to transform.
" Ri... ! " Hachigen replied only to be stopped by Ichigo.
" You're not going to take me over so easily ! " Ichigo responded as he then retakes control and then unleashes a controlled and condensed Reiatsu around himself to take over the Hollow as the form shatters and explodes and starts to retake a new form .
Ichigo 's mask now has four thick red stripes that appear to emerge outwards from the widened eye-holes of his mask and either disappear into both sides of the lower jaw or travel past the very top of the mask itself. He also has small furry red tufts, two starting from his collarbone and stretching around his neck, and one each on his wrists and ankles. A white armor covers his chest, arms, shoulders and feet.
" He's achieved Evolución ! " Shinji said to everyone only to be punched by Hiyori .
" I refuse to believe that guy can achieve something in less than a week when it took years for even the best Vizards to take this form " Hiyori shouted.
" Well Hiyori , let's see what you can do against him now " Shinji said to Hiyori.
" I'll show you that form is merely a copy of its strength ! " Hiyori shouted as she charges up her full power.
" Bring it bitch ! " Ichigo replied with a more confident tone.
" Chop Cleanly Kubikiri Orochi (馘大蛇, Beheading Serpent) " Hiyori shouted as she unleashes a powerful gust of wind creating a massive wave of energy engulfing everything within a 1,500 foot radius in a whirlwind as she puts on her Hollow mask.
" Is that all you got ? " Ichigo asked Hiyori as the wind doesn't faze him.
" Incredible , his Reiatsu is on a completely different level now. Before Ichigo can barely withstand that much Reiatsu even with his Hollow Mask " Shinji said to himself as he sees Ichigo standing there.
" Don't you dare mock me " Hiyori shouted as she uses Shunpo to move at 32,083 ft/sec (21,875 MPH ) and hit Ichigo with her Shikai to create a large crater in the ground and creates a large 100 foot deep , 400 foot diameter crater however Ichigo was able to block the attack with just his right forearm with ease.
" Incredible, he's holding back Hiyori's full power strike with just his bare hand " Lisa said to the group.
" His strength has vastly increased to the point he blocked his strike with ease despite Hiyori's Shikai being able to slice through Espada level Hierro " Kensei explained to the group.
" Looks like Hiyori is in trouble ! " Mashiro stated.
" Ichigo is too powerful for her now ! " Hachigen replied.
" Don't get too arrogant Hebi Sāba (蛇サーバSerpent Server ) " Hiyori shouted as she generates pink Reiastu around her sword that moves in the form similar to a chainsaw that cuts through the ground with ease and goes towards Ichigo who evades all attacks without any effort.
" Come on, you're too slow ! " Ichigo said to Hiyori as he dodges the attacks barely trying.
" How dare you mock me ! ? " Hiyori shouted as she charges up a Cero and fires it at Ichigo but Ichigo tilts his neck back and dodges the blast.
" You need to shoot better ! " Ichigo said to Hiyori.
" Try dodging this , Bala Hellshower ! " Hiyori yelled as she puts both hands out and fires a series of powerful Balas with 52 shots per second or 3,120 Balas pre minute however the attacks fail to tag Ichigo at all.
" This is boring ! " Ichigo said to Hiyori .
" No more fooling around, time for my strongest attack ! " Hiyori shouted as surrounds herself with more Reiatsu .
" This isn't good ! " Shinji said to everyone there as they see Hiyori charge up her attack.
" No Hiyori, you can't use that attack here , not while were around " Hachigen stated.
" Shut up ! I'm not going to lose to him " Hiyori replied as she has her sword glow with pink Reiastu.
" She's going to use that attack , is she trying to level the hideout ? " Love asked .
" Hiyori's strongest attack is powerful enough to slice even a small mountain nearly in half, this hideout would be destroyed by that level of attack " Rose explained to the others.
" Not even my barriers are strong enough to stop a fully charged strike ! " Hachigen replied.
" Brace yourself Ichigo, i'm going to show you just how below me you really are , i was holding back the last time we fought , this time i'm hitting you with my best . I warn you Ichigo, nothing aside from a Senior Captain level Shikai or Bankai can block this attack , it's even more powerful than your strongest Getsuga Tenshō " Hiyori shouted as she goes for her attack.
" Here it comes ! " Shinji shouted as the others duck down.
" Incoming ! " Lisa shouted as they all get down.
" Kibakatto Hebitaiji ( 牙をカット蛇退治 Serpent Slaying Cutting Fang ) " Hiyori shouted as she spins around and releases a massive pink wave of Reiastu similar to a Getsuga Tenshō but it's really a fast rotating disk of energy shaped like a buzzsaw which easily slices through small rock formations as it heads towards Ichigo at high-speed.
" Not bad , however not good enough " Ichigo replied as he cuts the wave in half with a causal one-handed swing of his sword.
" Impossible, he stopped Hiyori's attack cold ! " Shinji said to himself.
" It can't be ! " Hiyori shouted as she's shocked to see her strongest attack stopped so easily only to be hit by the hilt of Ichigo who moved at 160,415 ft/sec (109,375 MPH ) . far faster than Hiyori can blink.
" You took your eyes off me ! " Ichigo replied as he watches he get knocked out cold.
" He defeated Hiyori with Zero effort ! " Lisa said to Shinji.
" Ichigo has finally obtained a far greater level of power ! " Shinji replied only to see Ichigo collapse from exhaustion as he turns back to normal with his Bankai reverting to Shikai.
" Looks like he can't hold in nearly as long , he only lasted 30 seconds !" Kensei said to Shinji.
" Well given this is his first time using it, he did good , it seems like it wasn't a waste of them to have him around " Shinji replied.
Hiyori then gets back up notably worn out and holding on to her stomach.
" He still needs work on his form, had he tapped into his full potential, i wouldn't be able to get up this fast. Still even at just the starter state his power in impressive , especially given he cut through my Kibakatto Hebitaiji without trying,something that no Junior Captain should be able to do unless they used nearly all their powers besides that bastard broke a few of my ribs " Hiyori explained to Shinji .
" That's all the reason we have 3 months left , hopefully he can achieve his potential by then ! " Shinji replied.
Meanwhile at the Hokage's palace
Raikage, Darui, C, Mabui and several Kumokagure Shinobi are impressed by by what they see with the Senkaimon.
" I have to say, this Senkaimon can really guide us far into any part of the area as we choose . Most impressive ! " A said to the Hokage.
" You can thank Kakashi for all of this ! " Tsunade replied.
" It's almost amazing how fast we can get from Kumo to Konoha ! " Darui stated amazed at the technology that he sees there.
" The Shinigami are really something if they can go from back and forth this easily " C replied.
" To think that my Tensō no Jutsu ( 天送の術Heavenly Transfer Technique ) wouldn't even compare to anyone space-time Ninjustu . While it's not as proficient as my Space Time Ninjustu in terms of speed, it can still carry people back in larger numbers without the risk of being ripped to pieces Only the caster can withstand the technique of being ripped to shreds by the light speed portal if he or she were to travel through it but would be severely exhausted. The only people who can survive the force of Lightspeed unfazed was the Third Raikage and his son over there " Mabui explained to the group.
" And now we have access to something that can get us there almost as fast and without endangering the lives of those entering there " Shizune stated.
" We'll need to gather the other world leaders and Kages so we can unveil our new technological breakthrough and begin our counterattack on the Soul Society " Tsunade replied.
West Rukongai District # 45
10:00 A.M. Yoruichi, Soifon , Ibiki , Izuru , Hitsugaya and Rangiku as well as 12 seated officers from Hitsugaya's squad are preparing to aid in the arrest of Gyōkaku Kumoi within one of the emergency evacuation tunnels connecting to a hidden base within the tunnels belonging to the Kasumiōji clan.
" You're sure this raid party is enough ? " Izuru asked the group.
" With the lack of members in the Gotei 13 right now, we have to limit manpower as much as possible and only pick the strongest seated officers in our unit and we need to desperately fill in the gaps with new recruits " Hitsugaya answered.
" The manpower we have is only half it was after the Konoha Invasion , we desperately need to conserve as many force as possible and given the level of threats we're up against today alone, 3 Captain level Shinigami are here to assist us " Rangiku stated.
" Don't worry , with Captain Soifon here as well as the others, we can't possibly fail this mission " Ibiki replied only to see Kasumiōji assassins come at them
" Incoming ! " Rangiku shouted as she blocks one of the Bakkōtō wielding ninjas blades with her own Shikai.
" Looks like we got some assassins from the Kasumiōji family ! " Ibiki said to Rangiku as she deflects the blade and slashes down the ninja with her sealed sword.
Hitsugaya and his group then find themselves surrounded by 50 assassins wielding Bakkōtōs and all come at the officers.
Inside the Kasumiōji Clan hideout
10:01 A.M. Kumoi sees the forces advancing forward within the manor .
" Damn it ! They're coming here fast ! " Kumoi shouted.
" Looks like those Shinigami are coming for us , remember our plan ? " Amagai asked him.
" Right, already have that token care of. I'll go after the princess and you go after the Captain Commander, Hanza, i entrust you to handle things with the Shinigami here " Kumoi explained to Hanza .
" Very well then ! I have some guest for the Shinigami to play with anyways ! " Hanza replied as he stays behind while Amagai leaves to go to Yamamoto and Kumoi heads to the World of the Living.
At the same time
Orochimaru's Secret Lab
10:01 A. , Guren and Yumkimaru are at the hidden base somewhere at Kusakagure.
" Guren, are you alright ? " Rinji asked.
" I'm feeling better, what about Yukimaru ? " Guren answered with a question.
" You had me worried for a second but it seems like everything is going to be fine now , as for Yukimaru he's still asleep " Rinji explained to Guren.
" That's a relief ! " Guren replied only to see a bat come by .
" This is bad, the enemy has discovered our hideout and is approaching here 5 miles east " Rinji said to Guren.
" Shit! Who is it ? " Guren asked.
" It's Sasuke and his team, they're coming here really fast ! " Rinji answered.
" Them again ! This is bad, i thought he'll be down by now ! Assemble the rest of the team, you on the other hand stay her and protect Yukimaru with your life " Guren said to Rinji .
" Right ! " Rinji replied as he goes to assemble the team.
" Whats going on here ? " Gozu asked.
" We're being attacked ! " Rinji answered.
" Is that so ? " said the old man with a wrist launcher.
" It seems so Kihō ! " Rinji replied to the wrist launcher wielding old man.
" Nurari looks like we have some action to look forward too " Kihō said to the effeminate man.
" Right, what do you say Kigiri, are you looking forward to some chaos ? " Nurai questioned the gas mask wearing man.
" Yes, it's been awhile since we killed anyone ! " Kigiri answered.
" Our opponents are Suigetsu, Sasuke and Jugo, you might not be strong enough . Take these pills to increase your power ! " Rinji said to the group as he gives each of them pills.
" These are Seishingans ! " Kigiri said to the group.
" These Seishingan ( 醒心丸Mind Awakening Pill) have been modified to give one Curse Mark level Chakra , amplifying your strength and power by 10 times however you guys would start to lose control of your mind so you need to defeat them as quickly as possible " Rinji explained to the group.
" We must do this to protect this base and Guren ! " Kirgi said to the group.
" For Guren ! " all the minions replied as each of them eat a pill to increase their power.
Meanwhile 5 miles Southeast of the Land of Grass/Land of Fire border
Sasuke and his team are following the invisible trait left behind Rinji's bat. Only Karin with her Mind of Kagura's powers can see the nearly invisible crystalline dust caused by Guren's cauterised wound.
" We're getting closer to Orochimaru's hidden base ! " Karin said to Sasuke.
" Where is it hidden ? " Sasuke asked.
" Underneath a small mountain over there within a cave , the mountain is 400 meters high and around a mile in base diameter. It seems like they have 5 to 6 high power fighters heading here rapidly " Karin explained to Sasuke as she sees the enemies coming towards them.
" So they're coming to bring the fight to us ? " Suigestu questioned the red-haired Kunoichi.
" It seems that way , guys prepare to fight ! " Sasuke answered as he draws his sword out.
" He, he , looks like we'll get more action ! " Suigetsu stated as he takes out his massive sword.
" Karin, get back while we handle them ! " Jūgo said to Karin.
" Right ! " Karin replied as she goes behind a rock .
After a minute , all the fighters arrive to take on Sasuke's group. Kihō then jumps from a tree and shoots a smokebomb from his wrist launcher which blinds Sasuke, Karin , Jūgo and Suigetsu.
" Looks like they're arrived ! " Sasuke said to the group as stands there.
" We got you now , you can't see anything with your Sharingan ! " Kihō stated as Kigri jumps out and goes to attack Sasuke and his team.
" Exploding Flame Shot " Kigri chanted as he shoots a yellow fireball towards Sasuke however Sasuke and his team dodges it as it explodes. Nurai then goes to attack Sasuke with it's water tentacles but it's blocked by Suigetsu.
" Looks like i'll be your opponent ! " Suigetsu said to Nurai as he pushes him back with his blade.
" Suigetsu, kick his ass ! " Jūgo said to his friend only to see Gozu charge at him only for Suigetsu to dodge the blow with Shunshin and goes to face Gozu.
" You guys are going to get crushed here for coming towards Guren's lair ! " Gozu said to the group as he goes to fight Jūgo.
Meanwhile Sasuke is surrounded by Kirigiri and Kihō who are going to take him head on.
" Let's take him down Kihō ! " Kirigiri said to Kihō.
" Right ! " Kihō replied as he aims his weapon at Sasuke.
" Do you think you guys can take me on ? " Sasuke asked calmly as he appears behind both of them .
" He's too fast ! " Kihō shouted as he's cut down in an instant as well as Kirigiri however it was revealed to be smoke clones .
" You really are as fast as Guren reported, that's why i developed these smoke clones to take you on " Kirigiri said to Sasuke.
" Smoke clones ? " Sasuke asked slightly shocked to see them around him.
" Yes combined with the smoke here, you can't see who's the real deal is . This smoke erasers all presence of me and my partner , sight, smell, touch, taste and hearing, it controls the five senses and renders it useless to sense me . You're Sharingan has a natural disadvantage against smoke and mist so you have to deal with fighting an enemy you can't see " Kirigiri explained to Sasuke.
" What a pain , they plan to use guerrilla warfare tactics on me ! " Sasuke said to himself as he stands there.
" Maengan ( 魔煙弾Dark Smoke Sphere ) " Kihō chanted as he shoots 20 smoke bombs which explode to create even more thick smoke however unlike normal smoke bombs, it can smash holes in the ground like real grenades.
" That's no ordinary smoke bomb launcher ! " Sasuke said to himself.
" Kihō uses specialized smoke bombs which not only blind the opponent but it can also hit foes with the force of being hit with bullets except these bullets are at a far greater caliber " Kirigiri said to himself as he see Kihō load up a red grenade container.
" Time for some high explosive rounds, Kemurikyū Haretsu (煙球を破裂 Exploding Smoke Sphere ) " Kihō chanted as he puts his barrel out and aims down the sight on his right forearm and shoots 12 exploding rounds at Sasuke that create compressed explosions which Sasuke dodges however is starched by one of the blasts.
" The guy is using controlled , condensed blasts fueled by the curse mark to damage me ? I need to be careful ! " Sasuke said to himself only to see a fireball come towards him.
" Exploding Flame Shot Volley " Kirgiri shouted as he fires 20 fireballs at Sasuke but he dodges the attack.
" What a pain in the ass these two are going to be ! " Sasuke said to himself.
Meanwhile Suigetsu clashes with Nurari and finds it hard to cut him with his massive sword despite having immense strength.
" Why can't i cut you ? " Suigetsu asked as he tries to slash him but his blade is stopped and slides off of Nurari's right forearm.
" My vicious water mass body makes it impossible for me to get cut or hurt by physical attacks " Nurari explained to Suigetsu as he punches Suigetsu in the face pushing him back.
" What the hell ? My body got injured ! " Suigetsu said to himself.
" Surprised ? You're water body can withstand most attacks however my body can force your water molecules to stick together preventing you from fazing through my attacks " Nurari explained to Suigetsu as Nurari kicks Suigetsu though several trees with his foot extending 25 feet long.'
" Crap, i'm badly matched against this guy ! " Suigetsu said to himself as he gets back up and goes to attack Nurari.
Meanwhile Jūgo is trying to fight Gozu but he's no match for Gozu without using his curse mark.
" You can't take me on with your level of power ! " Gozu said to Jūgo as he watches Jūgo who is still calm trying to take him on with only partial curse mark form.
" I just have to keep trying then ! " Jūgo replied as he goes to punch Gozu and engages in a fight with Gozu.
Jūgo and Gozu clash blows briefly but Jūgo is too slow to hit Gozu . Gozu hits him with a punch to the face then knees him in the stomach and piledrives him into the ground and does an elbow drop on Jūgo .
" That was pathetic, show me stronger moves than that ! " Gozu said to Jūgo as Jūgo gets back up now losing control of himself.
" I''LL RIP YOU TO SHREDS ! " Jūgo shouted as he charges at Gozu in his level 1 curse mark state .
Meanwhile Karin is behind the rock wondering what to do .
" I'm tired of having to stay at the sidelines, i feel like i can do better than what i'm doing right now ! " Karin said to herself as she looks onto the battle.
Back Inside the Kasumiōji Clan hideout
Hitsugaya, Ibiki, Soifon ,Izuru and Rangiku as well as Yoruichi arrive to find Hanza sitting in a throne room like area with several men with him. One of them is Makoto Mifune who has his Shikai already released and two assassins with him . One of them is an extremely tall, lean-built and yet mildly muscular man with silver hair, which is held pointing upwards in spiky strands on top of his head, but hangs down to the left of his face in a distinctive tuft, sometimes partially covering it, and reaching down to his shoulders. He's wearing a holding over his face and wielding a scythe which is his Shikai and the other guy is a massive muscle man who has a giant red mohawk and long beard without the mustache and has a hairy chest and only wearing pants.
" Where's Kumoi ? We came for his arrest ! " Soifon asked Hazna .
" And where did Shūsuke Amagai go ? " Yoruichi asked Hanza.
" If you must know, our master sent himself to hunt down the princess of the clan himself and Amagai went to take on Yamamoto himself " Hanza answered.
" What ? " Soifon asked shocked to hear the news.
" You forget that at the world of the living . Kisuke is protecting them and trying to take on Yamamoto ? That's a deathwish waiting to happen " Yoruichi explained to Hanza.
" Already ahead of you guys. Amagai has a special Bakkōtō that he plans to use to strip Yamamoto of his Zanpakutō powers an Kumoi has his own special surprise for Rurichiyo Kasumiōji and Kisuke Urahara " Hanza explained to the group.
" You mean the same Bakkōtō that was used to take away my Suzumebachi ? " Soifon asked him.
" Yep. that same one ! " Hanza replied.
" This is bad ! " Soifon stated.
" I'll handle this ! " Yoruichi replied as she dashes out of there.
" We'll bring you down and stop your plan " Soifon shouted as she charges at Hanza and goes to clash blades with him.
" Izuru , how about we settle this once and for all ! " Makoto stated as he goes to attack Izuru.
" I must stop you once and for all ! " Izuru replied as he charges at Makoto.
Meanwhile Hitsugaya stares down at the elderly Shinigami wielding a scythe.
" And who are you ? " Hitsugaya asked the old man.
" My name is Eisen Glor, i'm the former Vice Captain of Squad 10 , 310 years ago until i defected from the Gotei 13 in support of the rebellion against the Soul King " the old man answered.
" Why did you defect to the side of the rebellion ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" Central 46 has opposed the poor for far too long, they ordered the execution of so many people and they represent the worst of humanity. They need to be token down and that's why i've joined Kumoi's side " Eisen explained to the silver-haired Captain.
" I know the Soul Society isn't 100% fair but do you need to resort to war over this ? " Hitsugaya asked the ninja.
" Typical response from a naïve child, do me a favor and leave here, i don't hurt children ! " Eisen stated.
" I'm not a kid, i'm captain of Squad 10 Toshiro Hitsugaya ! " Hitsugaya replied as he releases his Shikai without it's release command and goes to attack the scythe wielding Shinigami with an ice dragon but the scythe wielding maniac jumps up and slashes the ceiling and flies up to the air within the Rukongai.
" The sky will be our battleground ! " Eisen said to Hitsugaya.
" Very well then ! " Hitsugaya replied.
Meanwhile Rangiku dodges an axe blow from the massive Shinigami brute.
" So what was your crime ? " Rangiku asked the large brute.
" I was baited out by the Kasumiōji Clan for murdering 50 people and selling their wives to the underground economy but not before i had fun with them " the brute answered.
" That's not possible, a crime like that should've granted you the death penalty. It is against the law to commit murder, you can get the death penalty just for that . How is it that you were baited out ? " Rangiku asked the brute.
" I was a former 3rd seat 230 years who had connections with Central 46 and thanks to that, i was a free man and worked for the guy secretly . The Central 46 member helped ran a massive human trafficking racket within the Rukongai and we especially loved selling female women after we broken their will, that was my favorite part of the job " the brute explained to Rangiku.
" That's bullshit, i refuse to believe no one noticed that corrupted bastard in Central 46 " Rangiku stated.
" All of Central 46 is corrupt. They misuse the name of the Soul King to pass down their hidden agenda, they only get rid of problems if it bothers their moral codes or if it threatens their power and i don't mind that honestly, as long as i get what i want, that's fine with me " the brute replied.
" I know the Soul Society and Central 46 is corrupt, i grew up in the Rukongai but it doesn't excuse your actions. You hurt innocent people and you sold off women as if they were your toys , that's unforgivable , I'm Lieutenant of Squad 10, Rangiku Matsumoto and i'm putting an end to a scumbag like you. Growl Haineko " Rangiku ranted as she releases her Shikai.
" Vice Captain huh ? It's been a while since i killed one of those . This Bakkōtō of mines helped me kill a Vice Captain once but it's so long since i remember who i killed , oh well , my name is Jinpachi Ibara, former 3rd seat of Squad 11 and my special Bakkōtō axe Hakaiha ( 破壊刃 Destruction Blade ) can blast anything to bits depending on how much force i put into my blade " the brute stated as he swings his sword as he creates a massive 20 foot diameter semi circular explosion which Rangiku barely dodges.
" If he hits me directly with that axe, i'm a goner ! " Rangiku said to herself.
" As you can tell, this axe can kill even a Vice Captain in one hit ! " Jinpachi said to Rangiku as he charges at Rangiku.
Meanwhile at the World of the living
Kisuke sees 20 special Bakkōtō wearing assassins coming towards the shop.
" Looks like they have assassins to try taking us on ! " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" Foolish, do they think they can beat us ? " Tessai asked Kisuke as he gets ready to fight them.
" They came to the wrong shop, the princess is somewhere where they can't find them " Kisuke answered as he then sees Kumoi behind him and barely has any time to react before he's grabbed by the tentacles of Kumoi's Bakkōtō.
" What the hell ? " Kisuke shouted as he tires to break out of the Bakkōtō tentacles.
" Why you .. " Tessai shouted as he goes to punch Kumoi but he catches the former Kidō Division captain with the tentacles and restrain him too.
" Don't worry, my Bakkōtō has nowhere near the power to kill you guys however it will offer a useful diversion against you two " Kumoi replied as he jumps away from them and his Bakkōtō grows a mouth to spit eggs out which then hatch into prefect clones of Kisuke and Tessai .
" What the hell ? " Kisuke asked shocked to see the clones standing next to them .
" Allow me to explain myself. This is the most powerful Bakkōtō i ever developed, it's called Shitai Dorobō (死体泥棒 Body Snatcher). It steals whoever i desires power and creates a clone of them to force them to fight themselves " Kumoi explained to Kisuke and Tessai as he feels the strain of the Bakkōtō.
" Looks like you can't keep up that power for long ! " Kisuke said to Kumoi as he draws his sword and goes to kill Kumoi but the clone blocks the attack and Tessai is punched away by his clone.
" While you fight my clones, i'll hunt down the princess and take her life with my men , scatter out " Kumoi said to the 20 special Bakkōtō wearing assassins as they scatter out the city .
" What the hell ? Where are they going ? " Kisuke asked.
" We'll destroy as much of the city as possible to find that bitch ! " Kumoi answered as he flees with his men.
" Shit ! Jinta, Ururu, Ririn , Cloud and Nova, try stopping them as long as you can until backup arrives " Kisuke said to the group as he blocks an attack from the Kisuke clone.
" This is going to be a serious problem ! " Tessai replied as he blocks a punch from his clone.
Meanwhile at Yamamoto's office
Yamamoto is with Sasakibe when Shūsuke arrives wearing the Captain Commanders outfit.
" Shūsuke Amagai, so you returned back to the Soul Society ? " Yamamoto asked him.
" You've never once considered there might be people in the Soul Society who'd murder you if they had the chance " Amagai answered.
" Murder me ? To what end ? " Yamamoto questioned the middle-aged man.
" Kisaragi Shin'estu . I know you haven't forgotten . I've come is stead from the depths of hell to end your life " Amagai replied.
" End my life you say ? Do you have a deathwish ? I'm the most powerful Shinigami in the world. You best don't try to kill me fool " Yamamoto calmly stated.
" So no wonder it was so easy to break into your office Yamamoto , you have such lax security " Amagai stated.
" I don't need to worry about security , i'm here, there's no better security than this " Yamamoto replied as he stands there only for Sasakibe to appear in front of Amagai.
" You still have me Captain Commander ! " Sasakibe said to his Captain Commander.
" Go and handle him, you should be enough to handle him ! " Yamamoto replied .
" Are you kidding me ? A mere Vice Captain taking me on ? You're even more arrogant than i thought. I wouldn't need much effort to beat him ! " Amagai replied.
" I'll make you regret your arrogance ! Pierce Gonryōmaru (厳霊丸, Stern Spirit) " Sasakibe chanted as he release his Shikai and swings his rapier and launches a lightning current at Amagai.
" Sever Raika (雷火, Lightning Flash) " Amagai countered as he launches a massive fireball towards the lightning current and cancels out the attack.
" You're not laying a hand on my Captain Commander ! " Sasakibe said to Amagai as he glows with immense lightning Reiatsu.
" Time to see how long can a lowly Vice Captain like you can last against me ! " Amagai replied as he goes to clash with Sasakibe.
Meanwhile at the Seireitei
Yoruichi is about to enter the gate when she gets a call from Kisuke.
" What is it Kisuke ? " Yoruichi asked.
" It's Kumoi, he's send out his Bakkōtō assassins across the entire town and sent clones of me and Tessai to keep us at bay , we need help " Kisuke said to Yoruichi .
" We got problems of our own , Amagai is attacking Yamamoto with a special Zanpakutō sealing Bakkōtō " Yoruichi stated.
" Don't worry , Yamamoto can handle himself but the people can't . Come here and aid us " Kisuke stated.
" Right ! " Yoruichi replied as she hangs up on Kisuke and goes to dial another number.
Meanwhile at the Shinigami Research and Development Institute
Mayuri gets a phonecall from Yoruichi about the emergency in the Soul Society .
" What is it Yoruichi ? " Mayuri asked .
" Yamamoto is being attacked within his office ! " Yoruichi answered.
" Impossible, how would anyone be able to reach him pass all this security ? " Mayuri asked.
" He used a special Senkaimon portal within a hideout to reach the office ! " Yoruichi replied.
" Still, why should we worry ? " Mayuri questioned the dark-skinned Ex Captain .
" He has a special power stealing and sealing Bakkōtō, he's highly dangerous , don't take him lightly " Yoruichi answered.
" I see, i'll notify the other Captains ! " Mayuri replied.
" Also, i need some backup against some Bakkōtō wielding assassins attacking the World of the Living " Yoruichi said to Mayuri.
" Don't worry , Backup would arrive shortly ! " Mayuri replied.
Meanwhile across the Seireitei
All the Captains and Vice Captains get notifications about the issue going on.
" We got an emergency report of a former Shinigami named Shūsuke Amagai fighting against the Captain Commander, All Captain level Shinigami active are required to immediately aid in the arrest of Shūsuke Amagai and ensure he doesn't escape . As for all Vice Captain level Shinigami, 20 seated officer level Bakkōtō wielding assassins were spotted in District 3600, all active Vice Captains are required to engage in combat with the threat in the world of the living " Mayuri said to the Shinigami across the Seireitei.
Meanwhile at Squad 4, Unohana, Isane and the other officers are trying to prepare hospital beds in case of the event of any injured Shinigami.
" Why aren't we going to fight the enemy ? " Isane asked Unohana.
" Because it's in our job to ensure no one dies i battle, we only join in when the we're required to fight ! " Unohana answered as she gets ready for the battle.
Meanwhile at Squad 5 , Momo heads out by herself leaving a young long blonde haired man in charge.
" 3rd seat Bishōjohana Sojusenshi, watch over the squad while i'm gone " Momo said to her 3rd seat.
" Right ! " Bisho replied as he watches Momo leave to the world of the living .
Meanwhile at Squad 6 , Renji and Byakuya are about to head out leaving their 3rd seat in charge of the battle .
" Renji, head out and aid the others and make sure no one is hurt " Byakuya said to Renji .
" Right Captain ! " Renji replied as he walks away to the world of the living. Byakuya then focuses his 3rd seat ,Suigyū Sensōnushi.
" 3rd seat Suigyū Sensōnushi, watch over the squad while me and Renji are fighting " Byakuya said to the Viking looking guy.
" Right ! " the 3rd seat replied as they head out while the viking 3rd seat stay behind.
Meanwhile Komamura and Iba left the squad only to meet up with Hisagi .
" Looks like we managed to me up ! " Iba said to Hisagi.
" You two head to the world of the living, i'll aid Master Yamamoto ! " Komamura stated.
" Right ! " Iba and Hisagi replied as they run to the World of the Living.
" Those who threaten Yamamoto's life would have to answer to me ! " Komamura said to himself as he heads out to aid Yamamoto.
Meanwhile at Squad 8, Nanao is in Shunsui's office when she ask him about the mission.
" Aren't you coming ? " Nanao asked.
" Don't worry , i doubt even with the ability to steal Zanpakutō's he can be a serious threat with all the Captains there " Shunsui answered.
" Still, aren't you worried it might not be enough ? " Nanao questioned her Captain.
" Remember, Unohana said to that i couldn't fight for a month so i wouldn't be useful, Nanao go and help the others " Shunsui said to Nanao.
" Right ! " Nanao replied as she leaves to aid the Vice Captains in the world of the living.
Meanwhile at Squad 11, Kenpachi is surprisingly sitting out the aiding of Yamamoto .
" Why are you sitting out this one ? " Ikkaku asked.
" All the fights are token, i don't sense anyone who isn't a worthy foe that hasn't been token by another Captain . I'll just sit out unless someone strong comes along " Kenpachi explained to Ikkaku.
" Fine, i see what you mean, i'll sit this one out too ! " Ikkaku stated.
" Same here ! " Yumichikia replied.
Meanwhile at Squad 13 , Ukitake is coughing feeling sick at the moment.
" Captain, you're too sick to fight ! " Rukia said to Ukitake.
" Don't worry, Yamamoto can handle himself ! " Ukitake replied.
" Can we come with Rukia to the World of the living ? " Kiyone asked Ukitake.
" Sure but be careful ! " Ukitake answered.
" Don't worry, we won't disappoint you ! " Sentarō stated.
" Indeed, we'll make you proud ! " Kiyone replied.
Meanwhile at Isshin's House
Isshin is cleaning his house when he gets news reports from the local news report .
" This is KTN (Karakura Town News) with special news report . I'm Daidai Maikuitto with breaking news " the male news reporter said to the audience . The reporter is a middle-aged Japanese man with a thin mustache and tupeg on his head covering his balding head.
" And i'm Jenīei Ringo reporting the news in a fair and balance way " the woman said to the audience at him. The woman is a young woman in her 20's with long brown hair.
" There has been a series of loud explosion across Karakura Town seemingly coming from the air , experts are trying to decide what is causing the explosions. All people are advised to stay indoors and turn off all gas lines for it might be a possible gas line eruption " Daidai said to the audience only for the transmission to be cut off and Kumoi appears on the television.
" Hello , this is Gyōkaku Kumoi . If you're getting this message, that means you are spiritually aware, this broadcast can only be seen and hear by those that have spiritual awareness " Kumoi said to the ones who can see him.
" What the hell is going on ? " Isshin said to himself.
" I have bugged into all the soul phones within the area to give you this pre-recorded message. Princess Luchiryio, if you are out there within District 3,600 of the Human World, come out quietly or i'll use my army of powerful assassins to kill everyone in town " Kumoi explained to the people.
Meanwhile at the house next to Isshin's clinic
Rurichiyo, Kenryū and Enryu check out the broadcast the interrupted their shows to see Gyōkaku Kumoi on the television.
" What the fuck ? He knows where here! " Kenryū said to Enryū.
" What's going on Kenryū, why is Kumoi on the TV ? " Rurichiyo asked Kenryū.
" Princess Rurichiyo, surrender yourself and i'll spare this city . I've equipped my men to have the strength to kill 1,000 people at once " Kumoi answered.
" Why are you doing this ? " Rurichiyo asked despite knowing it's a recording.
" It' s to take your throne and to take my place as the real ruler of the Soul Society . I have waited over 850 years to make my move to become the leader of the Kasumiōji Clan and even the leader of the Soul Society but i could never take that opportunity l for i lacked the real power to become a Shinigami . Another dream destroyed was the dream to rule the clan but due to the tradition that the Matriarch was the ruler of the Kasumiōji Clan " Kumoi explained to the Kasumiōjis.
" So all this had to do with power ? " Kenryū shouted.
" If you're listening to this Rurichiyo, i killed your parents so i can usurp the head family seat, gathering supporters and creating an assassination squad for my own purposes. I had his assassins kill off the clan leaders in the noble family who disagree with his views or discover his plans. All this time, my main goal is to kill you , the last true descendant of the Kasumiōji family " Kumoi explained to Rurichiyo.
" Why ? Why did you kill my parents ? YOU MONSTER ! ? " Rurichiyo shouted.
" It's simple, she had power and the Soul Society for far too long has become feminized . Having women take the seat of power or having them anywhere else other than the bedroom or kitchen is a grave offense to the traditional morals of the Soul Society. Since Yamamoto's ascend as the leader of the Gotei 13 and the liberalization of the noble clans that occurred under his rule, the Soul Society has been infested with impurities that drag this great society down. We allow women to take seats within the Gotei 13 and even allow them as Captains, we allow Rukongai vermin to infest the ranks with their lack of moral code and we even allow homosexuals to practice their sinful nature " Kumoi ranted .
" You sexist, bigoted bastard, so that's why you had Rurichiyo's mother killed ? " Kenryū shouted.
" Some may look at me as a bigot , some may look at me as a racist and some may look at me as a sexist but what i really am is a purist. What i want is the purification of the Soul Societies ills. The Soul Society has turned around from tradition by forcing the rich like myself to have to pay taxes to fund these subhuman creatures within the Rukongai who don't know how to use that money , it has turned from tradition by allowing a bunch of dark-skinned subhumans become the most powerful clan in the Soul Society and to allow a woman to not only ascend to the throne but a black, homosexual woman at that. Our Onmitsukido is now being led by homosexual subhumans who don't respect tradition. I've lived 2,560 years and back in my generation things were better and the Rukongai wasn't a shit hole, this to be blamed by Yamamoto softening up the Soul Society and allowing peasants, subhumans and homosexuals as well as women become our police force " Kumoi shouted as he rants more about the Soul Society exposing his vile, sexist, racist and bigoted views.
" Now we know his true colors ! " Kenryū stated as he glares at the screen.
" I don't get it! Kumoi was like an uncle to me, i didn't know he was such an evil, hateful human being ! " Rurichiyo as she starts to cry.
" I was the one who aided the rebellion in the Soul Society 300 years ago to oppose the reforms at the time, ii used the vast wealth of the Kasumiōji clan without their consent to forge the weapons used to kill thousands of these soft Shinigami. Why you ask ? Because i wanted to become the Captain Commander and i wanted to bring the Soul Society back to it's glory days, i wanted the Soul Society to follow the lord, Soul King's values The Gotei 13 don't care about competence or leadership, they only care about who can flex the most Reiatsu , that's why Yamamoto is unfit to run this world and why i should be Captain Commander. Under my rule, we would govern not only this world but the World of the Living. Under my rule, only men would be allowed to join the Gotei 13, under my rule, no one who descended from a non-Japanese society would be denied entry to the Gotei 13 and under my rule, i will purge the Gotei 13 with homosexuals. This is why i now lead this rebellion and all that's need is your blood Rurichiyo " Kumoi explained to the Shinigami and Rurichiyo .
" That would never happen, i won't let you purge the Soul Society into your fascist Utopia ! " Rurichiyo replied.
" If you don't surrender your life , the lives of thousands of innocent people would be wiped off the map. I have disabled your central government known as the Gotei 13, if you don't do as i say, this town would be destroyed " Kumoi stated .
" We'll never give into your demands ! " Kenryū replied.
" Suit yourself , each of the assassins carry special Bakkōtōs that forces their bodies to fight even after a fatal blow. They can regenerate from even fatal stabs to the head and heart and they grow 33% more powerful after being killed in battle , each of them can demolish an entire building with a swipe of their sword , you're move Rurichiyo " Kumoi said to the group as they communication hangs up.
" Damn it , why is this all happening ? " Rurichiyo said to herself.
Meanwhile across Karakura Town
20 special Bakkōtō wielding assassins wander around Karakura Town searching for Rurichiyo Kasumiōji rampaging across the town. People can't see the rouges as they smash around the place. The Bakkōtō wielding assassins cause devastation around everywhere they go.
One of the Bakkōtō users attacks the Kasazuki district. The Shinigami takes a lamppost and lifts it shocking people as they think that the pole is being lifted in the air by an invisible force and smashes a restaurant with it however no one was killed given they flee the area before it was hit. The shop then catches on fire
" What the hell is going on ? " one of the guys shouted.
" It seems like the telephone pole lifted itself up and smashed the shop window " another one answered.
" What could've caused this ? " one Japanese woman asked only for the berserk Bakkōtō user to try attacking them only to be blocked by Iba.
" I can't let you mess up this nice town ! " Iba said to the assassin as he kicks the Bakkōtō user 230 feet high and jumps up to attack.
" ARRRUGH ! " the assassin shouted only to see Iba in front of him.
" Ingite Hametsuhano Henshōsa (運命刃の燃焼Combusting Doom Blade ) " Iba chanted as he releases his Shikai and slashes the assassin down with an explosive slash which knocks the assassin into the street seemingly killing him.
" ARRGH ! " the assassin yelled as his head stitches itself back on thanks to the tentacles and he gets back up.
" What the hell is that ? Bakkōtō's must've fully token them over however how can he still be able to stand and regenerate ? I nearly cleaved his head in half " Iba said to himself.
Meanwhile Rukia is using her Shikai to battle one of the Bakkōtō users blocking their charging sword slash and takes them down with a swing of her Shikai within the Matsumiya district.
" That was too easy ! " Rukia said to herself only to see the assassin get back up despite being slashed across the chest.
" ARRUGH ! " the assassin shouted as he gets back up and regenerates from his wounds.
" He just got back up like nothing happened but how ? I clearly slashed through the internal organs " Rukia said to herself only to be kicked into a parked car with her body tearing the car in half and her body smashing through a 3 story suburban house and ends up in a kitchen.
" ARRGGH ! " the assassin shouted as he swings his sword and cuts the abandoned 3 story building in half causing in to collapse however he sees Rukia in the air slashing the air around the assassin.
" Tsugi no mai, Hakuren " Rukia chanted as she freezes the assassin in a 200 foot diameter, 3 foot diameter ice pillar.
" ARRGHRAWR ! " the assassin shouted as he breaks out of the ice pillar and grows more muscular .
" Is he getting stronger from his injuries ? " Rukia said to herself .
Meanwhile Hisagi with sealed sword is taking on another assassin near the Hirohyaku Supermarket. Hisagi slashes down the assassin with his sealed sword and slashes his throat.
" Is that all to the strength of the assassin ? " Hisagi said to the fallen assassin.
" RAAWARUGH ! " the assassin shouted as he regenerates from his wounds and grows more muscular . He then comes at Hisagi and slashes a car cleanly in half with ease nearly hitting Hisagi.
" I'm in trouble , he's going to keep getting back up until i can't fight anymore , i have to find a way to bring him down " Hisagi said to himself.
Meanwhile Kiyone and Sentarō are fighting 2 assassins within the Karakura Community Park.

" What just happened ? " one of the passengers asked .
" Were we hit by a rocket-propelled grenade and knocked off the tracks ? another passenger answered with a question.
The assassin then approaches the train and is about to kill the survivors however Renji appears to stop him.
" Roar Zabimaru " Renji shouted as he swings his Shikai towards the assassin and pushes him 200 feet away from the train crash and into 5 story building.
" ARRAURGH ! " the assassin shouted as it gets more muscular and heals up from it's massive chest wound.

" ARRAURGH ! " the assassin shouted as it gets more muscular and heals up from it's injuries.
" Just what are these guys ? " Momo said to herself as she stares at amazement that it shrugged off her fireball so easily.
Meanwhile Jinta and Ururu are fighting 2 assassins 1,300 meters from the shop. One of the assassins are throwing bricks at Ururu with the bricks moving at 1062 ft/sec ( 724 MPH ) but Ururu manages to dodge the bricks as each brick easily smashes through buildings and exploding taking down anything around it within a 3 foot radius.

" We got a problem, the enemy is targeting civilians, we need to activate Reiteki Hogosaegi " Renji answered.
" Is the situation bad ? " Mayuri asked.
" Pretty bad, not nearly bad enough to request a Gentei Kaijo but still dangerous for any human outdoors. Several buildings have been badly damaged and a train was just derailed. We have 200 reported injured " Renji explained to Mayuri.
" Very well then , Nemu prepare a citywide Reiteki Hogosaegi " Mayuri stated.

" It seems like the city is under attack again ! " Tatsuki said to Uryū as she looks at the battles happening.
" Don't worry, the enemies attacking are nowhere near as powerful as the ones who attacked here a week ago " Uryū replied.
" Still there's quite alot of them attacking the city compared to last time . At least 20 of them " Chad stated.
" I assume it has to do with the princess thing like yesterday ! " Uryū said to Chad.
" For what i can tell, i sense 20 of those same assassin Reiastus however there are only 11 fighters while the other 9 roam freely wrecking the town " Chad explained to Uryū.
" Very well then , let's take them out ! " Uryū stated as he jumps out the window
" Right ! " Chad replied as leaves the window.
" Looks like there's going to be chaos again ! " Keigo stated as he hides behind a table.
" I'm curious to see how this all plays out ! " Mizuro replied.
" Yeah, let's hope no one gets hurt ! " Tatsuki stated.
" Same here ! " Chizuru replied.
Meanwhile 5 miles Southeast of the Land of Grass/Land of Fire border
Sasuke struggles to see his opponents caught up within the smokescreen. Sasuke is unable to see his opponents with the Sharingan nor can he sense their Chakra, see them or smell them and he can't even hear their footsteps or movements, he can only hear the shots fired and dodge them via instinct Sasuke is only lightly injured with a few cuts and bruises from the explosion .
" Exploding Flame Shot " Kigri chanted as he shoots a yellow fireball towards Sasuke however Sasuke dodges it as it explodes.
" Kemurikyū Haretsu (煙球を破裂 Exploding Smoke Sphere ) " Kihō chanted as he shoots 12 exploding rounds at Sasuke that create compressed explosions which Sasuke dodges the blasts.
" Shit , these guys are starting to get on my nerves already ! " Sasuke said to himself as he then sees more attacks heading towards him .
" Exploding Flame Shot Volley " Kigri shouted as he fires 20 fireballs at Sasuke but he uses his Katana to deflect the fireballs away from him.
" Maengan ( 魔煙弾Dark Smoke Sphere ) " Kihō chanted as he shoots 20 more smoke bombs towards Sasuke but Sasuke manages to dodge all the shots and charge towards the area where he heard to sound and slash a silhouette's head off but it was revealed to be a smoke clone.
" Damn it, another illusion ! " Sasuke said to himself as he then sees himself surrounded by a very thick cloud of smoke.
" Enmaku Rō (煙縛牢Binding Smoke Prison ) " Kirigiri chanted as he traps Sasuke within a prison of thick smoke that wrap around Sasuke to keep him from moving.
" Damn it, he can manipulate smoke to ensnare his foes ! " Sasuke said to himself as he struggles to break out.
" Kihō, switch to poison rounds ! " Kirigiri said to Kihō .
" Right ! " Kihō replied as he loads another round containing poison gas.
" I hear them again ! " Sasuke said to himself as he breathes a fireball while still under constraints towards Kihō.
" Shit ! " Kihō shouted as he has no time to react while loading his poison gas rounds.
" Tatesutsu (盾を吸っSmoke Shield ) " Kirigiri countered as he forms a dense smoke barrier protecting his friend from the blast.
" Thanks Kirigiri ! " Kihō said to the gas mask Shinobi.
" You're welcome now let's end this kids life ! " Kirigiri replied.
" Gotcha !Karashi Kitai (からし 気体 Mustard Gas ) " Kihō chanted as he fires a powerful round towards Sasuke filled with nerve gas .
" Damn it , i'm done playing around ! " Sasuke replied as he rips through the binds and narrowly dodges the round by 3 inches as the round explodes 400 meters from Sasuke which creates a massive 1,000 foot radius .
" He broke out of my restrains and dodged the round ! " Kirigiri said to Kihō.
" No one has survived our poison gas /binding combination " Kihō responded.
" This battle would drag on forever if i don't get serious . Time to put this new power to the test " Sasuke said to himself as he each closes his eyes and enters a meditative state of mind.
" We got him now, he can't see , smell or hear us now, just aim at him and take the shot, if he's within 300 meters of that blast ,he'll die for sure " Kirigiri said to his partner .
" Already ahead of you ! Karashi Kitai (からし 気体 Mustard Gas ) " Kihō chanted as he fires another powerful round towards Sasuke filled with nerve gas .
" How predictable ! " Sasuke replied with a smile on his face with his eyes closed as he uses Sonído to appear in front of Kihō and Kirigiri.
" Watch out Kihō ! " Kirigiri shouted.
" What the ... ? " Kihō asked with shock as both of them are kicked into trees by Sasuke.
" This is starting to get boring ! " Sasuke said to the two of them.
" Impossible, how did you pinpoint our location ? We suppressed your Sharingan and stripped you of the ability to see , smell or hear us " Kirigiri asked Sasuke surprised to see Sasuke able to pin their location down.
" It's because of my new power. It's called Pesquisa ( Spanish for Inquiry) . It's an advanced perception technique that is used to both detect and gauge sources of Chakra within the vicinity of the user. Pesquisa functions similarly to sonar, through a radiating pulse sent outwards from the user that reacts to sources of Chakra within a certain proximity, allowing me to determine the location of any sensed people and granting me an indication of how powerful they actually are. I can use this even with my five senses sealed off " Sasuke explained to the two Shinobis.
" So our tactics aren't going to work anymore ? " Kirigiri asked Sasuke.
" In that case, let's stop playing around ! " Kihō replied a he fires a smoke grenade at Sasuke which blinds Sasuke.
" I told you, that trick won't work ! " Sasuke replied only to see himself binded by the smoke.
" Enmaku Rō (煙縛牢Binding Smoke Prison ) " Kirigiri chanted as he traps Sasuke within a prison of thick smoke that wrap around Sasuke to keep him from moving again.
" Now time to stop playing around ! " Kihō shouted as he produces continuous stream of smoke from his wrist launcher, Kihō can use his chakra to shape the smoke into the form of a dragon linked to his wrist launcher
" Let's end this ! " Kigiri replied as he uses horse → Tiger → Snake → Ram or Tiger → Monkey → Boar → Horse and Tiger handseals to form a massive orb of yellow fire wielded by both hands.
" Enryū ( 煙龍 Smoke Dragon ) " Kihō chanted as he launches a dragon at hypersonic speeds heading towards Sasuke.
" Exploding Flaming Bang Attack " Kigiri chanted as he shoots a massive yellow fire blast towards Sasuke with two hands.
Both attacks hit Sasuke directly and cause a massive 3,000 foot radius explosion which disperse and clears up after a minute. The smoke clears up to reveal that the force of the explosion detonated with the yield equivalent of 2 kilotons of TNT. The crater reveals that the blast wiped out 50,000 trees within the forest and the explosion created a 900 foot diameter , 225 foot deep crater however at the center of the crater is a 225 foot long ,3 foot wide rock formation where Sasuke is standing on with him blocking the full extent of the blast .
" Is that all you got ? " Sasuke asked the two shocking them.
" Impossible , he tanked two of our strongest attacks combined ! " Kihō shouted.
" Just what is he ? " Kirgiri shouted.
" You guys are merely pests , time to exterminate you ! " Sasuke said to them as he draws out his sword and charges it with Lightning.
" We need to run ! " Kihō shouted.
" Right ahead of you ! " Kirigiri replied as he runs with his partner.
" Odori no Kusanagi ( 草薙 Dance of the Snake Sword ) " Sasuke chanted as he moves at 293,333.3 ft/sec ( 200,000 MPH )and does 196 slashes on both Kihō and Kirigiri and then appears 20 feet in front of them .
" What the fuck ? " Kihō shouted.
" How did you get here so fast ? " Kirigiri asked only to notice both of them were cut.
" You're already dead, i slashed each of you 196 times. Farewell scumbags ! " Sasuke said the guys as he resheates his sword and both and Kihō fall to 196 pieces , dying within seconds .
Meanwhile 4 miles and 1200 meters from the border
Nurari senses his friends deaths from a distance.
" Kihō and Kigiri have fallen, it's time i stop playing around and finish this guy and avenge their deaths " Nurari said to himself as he walks towards Suigetsu who is covered in blood and has multiple bruises around his body.
" This guy is messing me up good. How is this guy so strong ? I can't cut him nor can i punch him " Suigetsu said to himself as he gets back up to fight.
Suigetsu charges at him but Nurari blocks his p punch and hits him with his kick stretching 20 feet long and knocking Suigetsu back 50 feet away. Suigetsu gets back up with his right arm enlarged 3 times larger and tries to punch Nurari in the face but the effeminate man takes the hit with the fist sliding off his face and then punches Suigetsu 30 times in the stomach and then uses an axe kick to shatter Suigetsu's face into the ground.
" That's all you got ? my , you're pathetic . You can do better this can you ? " Nurari arrogantly mocked .
" Shut your damn mouth ! " Suigetsu replied as he goes to punch Nurari again but once again blocked by Nurari's slime covered body.
" This is no good , you seem to forget my body is covered in slime, punching and stabbing me do no good idiot " Nurari said to Suigetsu as he slams Suigetsu to the ground and uses his right hand to cover Suigetsu in slime
" Damn it, i can't move ! " Suigetsu said to himself .
" Time for my strongest attack ! Vicious Water Torrent Vortex Punch " Nurari chanted as he jumps 100 feet in the air and then extends arms out to punch Suigetsu in the face. Nurari then unloads 30 punches per second on Suigetsu .
" ARRGHUH! " Suigetsu shouted as he gets punched multiple times in the torso by Nurari. Suigestu gets smashed down the ground 6 inches deep for every 300 punches he takes from his foe.
Meanwhile Karin is behind the rock reflecting on what's happening.
" I can't just stand here and do nothing , it's now or never ! " Karin said to herself as she sees dust engulf the battlefield.
The smoke clears up to reveal that Nurari smashed Suigetsu repeatedly for 2 minutes leaving Suigetsu within a 300 foot diameter, 60 foot deep crater . Suigetsu has been punched 3,600 times by Nurari who's worn out from punching Suigetsu and using all his power within his attacks. The combined force of each punch packed 305.5 kgs of TNT force with the combined force of 1.1 Kilotons of TNT force. Suigetsu is severely injured from the blows.
" Damn, you're a tough one to kill, most people would be dead from just the first 200 punches. You have really worn me out " Nurari said to Suigetsu as he forms his right arm into a spike club to go for the finishing blow.
" Damn , looks like i'll never get to fight Kisame ! " Suigetsu said to himself .
" Time to die ! " Nurari said to Suigetsu as he goes to swing down his club like arm but is binded by a flash bomb and Suigetsu is carried away by Karin.
" Suigestu , are you alright ? " Karin asked him.
" I'm fine , get out of here, you can't take him on . He's too strong ! " Suigetsu answered barely able to speak .
" Don't worry , i'll save you ! " Karin stated.
" No don't ! " Suigetsu replied as he see Nurari come towards Karin.
" I got you now you ugly bitch ! " Nurari shouted as he charges at Karin.
" Take this ! Doku Kōsui Yōsha ( 毒香水溶射Poison Perfume Spray ) " Karin chanted as she sprays a massive amount of pink perfume that poisons the effeminate man and covers him within a 200 foot diameter pink poison cloud.
" Karin, what are you doing ? " Suigetsu asked .
" Now that his guard is down, time to take him down . Severe Stinging Slap ! " Karin shouted as she rushes up to the Shinobi and slaps her opponent with an explosive tag. The force of the slap knocks Nurari 20 feet across the field, and the explosive tag detonates after the opponent hits the ground. The Blast doesn't damage him but rather stuns him.
" Damn that bitch ! " Nurari shouted as he has a small bruise on the left side of his check caused by the explosion.
" Time to stop this ! " Karin said to Suigetsu as she throws a scroll and uses 20 kunai covered in electricity to hit Nurari while he's off guard causing him to get hurt.
" ARRGH ! " Nurari shouted in pain as he struggles to move in pain.
" What are doing ? Bite me already ! " Karin shouted.
" What was that poison cloud just now ? " Suigetsu asked.
" It's my Doku Kōsui Yōsha ( 毒香水溶射Poison Perfume Spray ). It's a highly toxic poison i made by fusing my Chakra with Neurotoxins extracted from a box jellyfish which causes extreme pain and muscle spasms. It also weakens the muscles and softens the skin lowering the defense and speed of the user while injecting them into immense physical pain. On an enemy on my level or lower, they will die in a minute but it's only a good distraction right now " Karin explained to Suigetsu.
" Damn it, my skin is hurting ! " Nurari shouted as he tries to stand up from the pain.
" Quick bite me, it would heal you " Karin said to Suigetsu.
" Very well then ! " Suigetsu replied as he bites her skin.
" ARRGH ! " Karin shouted in pain as Suigetsu heals from his wounds and within 20 seconds get back up fully healed.
" Thanks Karin ! Time for my come back ! " Suigetsu replied as he sets up for his jutsu while Nurari gets back up while still fazed by the lightning kunai.
" If you use a water attack now , you can wash off the coating around him " Karin said to Suigetsu.
" Okay then ! " Suigetsu replied as he does Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit → Ram → Boar → Ox → Horse → Monkey → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit and Bird handseals .
" Damn that bitch! " Nurari shouted as he removes the kunai from his body and the smoke clears up.
" Water Style: Giant Vortex Jutsu " Suigetsu chanted as he forms a water vortex between his hands and then extends water over a large-scale, surges and rises up 20 feet high and it streams down to the ground in one big cascade, creating a huge wave, with tremendous power that hollows out the ground heading towards Nurari.
" Shit ! " Nurari shouted as he tries to block it but it's too much for him to handle.
The water pressure is moving at 10,000 ft/sec (6820 MPH ) with the flow rate of 23,498,031 gallons of water per second hitting with the force of 1.2 tons of TNT per second which blasts away Nurari's vicious smile. After a minute, the 300 foot diameter, 60 foot deep crater is filled to the top with the combined pressure force of 73.31 tons of TNT , 1.66 times the force of the Russian FOAB Bomb.
" What a massive around amount of water ! " Karin said to herself as she looks at the water she's standing on.
" My smile, impossible , IMPOSSIBLE ! " Nurari shouted only to see Suigestu gone from his sight.
" Behind you ! " Suigestu shouted as he appears 20 feet above Nurari as a blob of water reforming in the sky.
" HOLY SHIT ! " Nurari shouted as he tries to run.
" Gekiryū: Suika Odorikyōju( 激流・水化踊りを享受Torrent: Hydrification Reaping Dance ) " Suigestu chanted as he slashes downward vertically slicing Nurari in half with his Kubikiribōchō.
" He did it ! " Karin said to herself as she watches the slash split the miniature lake in half and she's blown away by the wave but Suigetsu catches her and they land on the ground to see a 150 foot long, 3 foot wide and 10 foot deep fissure with the wave scattering 1,000 feet away from the fissure.
" Thanks for helping me out ! " Suigetsu said to the team.
" Indeed ! " Karin replied.
Meanwhile 5 miles and 400 meters away

" They're all dead as well ! " Rinji replied.
" Rinji, get out of here and take Yukimaru with you ! " Guren said to Rinji.
" Why ? You're not thinking of ... " Rinji questioned the blue haired Kunoichi.
" You're not a fighter Rinji, if they can kill even Gozu with him being enhanced by the pills, you stand no chance at all. Take Yukimaru and bring to to safety, get him as far away from the place as possible " Guren explained to Rinji.
" But Guren, you can't win with that kind of injury and if you take those pills, you might end up dying " Rinji stated only to be kissed in the mouth by Guren .

The explosion creates a 20,000 foot diameter, 50,000 foot high mushroom cloud with the stem cloud being 8,000 feet in diameter. The blast yield is 475 Kilotons of TNT, the equivalent of a W-88 Trident D5 warhead. Jūgo is within a 2,600 feet diameter, 600 foot deep crater barely standing.
" Jūgo are you alright ? " Karin asked him as he's barely standing.
" I can't stand up too long ! " Jūgo answered as Karin and Suigestu help him out.
" Now time to arrive at Orochimaru's base " Sasuke stated.
" I don't think so ! " Guren replied as she appears in front of him with curse marks around her body.
" It's her again ! " Suigetsu shouted.
" Her Chakra is on a completely different level than it was before ! " Karin said to the team.
" It's time i end this fast ! " Guren shouted as she creates crystals around her body and goes to attack Sasuke and his team.
" Watch out ! " Karin shouted .
" Kesshō Hariseki (結晶針堰 Crystal Needle Barrage ) " Guren chanted as she shoots hundreds of needles towards the group however Sasuke uses his wings with Level 2 curse mark to protect the team however they're lightly damaged by the needles.
" Leave here, Karin you guys need to get the files from Orochimaru's base . I'll take care of her " Sasuke said to Guren as his partial curse mark wings are bleeding from the crystals embedded within them.
" So you can transform partially into your curse mark form ? . Impressive but it won't be enough " Guren said to Sasuke as she glows with more energy.
" Then allow me to step up my game . Tenno Juin Daini Sutēji (天の呪印 ス第二テージ Cursed Seal of Heaven Second Stage ) " Sasuke chanted as he reveals himself to have transformed into his level 2 curse form. Sasuke's skin turns dark-grey and his hair grows and turns dark blue. His eyes also turn dark grey. Additionally, he grows webbed-claw-shaped wings from his back and a dark, star-shaped mark appeared across the bridge of his nose.
" Shishō Tenketsu ( 死傷点穴Chakra Points: Life and Death ) " Guren countered as she releases two tenketsu points to greatly increase her Chakra and releases a massive wave of blackish purple Chakra.
" That's an immense amount of Chakra you're emitting, i don't think i can beat you without resorting to this " Sasuke said to Guren as he puts his hand over his face and summons his Hollow Mask given to him by Aizen.
Sasuke in this state retains most of his features in his CS2 form while wearing a Hollow mask on his hollow mask resembles the phantom of the opera mask which overs most of his face however his mouth is left exposed.
" What's with this mask of yours ? " Guren asked.
" This is my Hollow Mask , my power increases with this on ! " Sasuke answered.
" I see, let's see who can win in a contest of power ! " Guren stated.
" I can only draw 20% of the mask power while in CS2 form , i've yet to fully control my Hollow powers. If i try taping into all that power while in CS2 form, i will probably kill myself from the strain " Sasuke said to himself as he prepares to fight Guren.
Meanwhile 10 miles from the mountain base in the hideout
Rinji takes Yukimaru to a remote cave and puts him at the cave .
" Where is Guren ? " Yukimaru asked.
" Don't worry, she'll be back, she's getting ready to leave right now " Rinji answered.
" Why are we in this cave ? " Yukimaru asked.
" She told us to meet her here , stay here while i get her " Rinji answered as he goes back to aid her.
" Please come back ! " Yukimaru said to Rinji as he rushes back
" I'm not going to leave you my beloved Guren, i may not have the strength to fight but i can still aid you " Rinji said to himself as he heads back to base.
Meanwhile at the Captain Commanders officer
Shūsuke is worn out from fighting Sasakibe while Sasakibe is barely showing signs of exhaustion. The sky around the office is raining with lightning striking within a 200 foot radius of the compound.
" How ? How can i be so easily overpowered by a mere Vice Captain ? " Amagai asked as he struggles to get back up.
" Simple, Sasakibe isn't an ordinary Shinigami Vice Captain . You might've obtained the power to rival a Shinigami Captain within the current generation but Sasakibe is easily on par with the strongest captain in the last 10 years and was a protegé of mine and the only Vice Captain to have a mastered Bankai, one powerful enough to scar my head 216 years ago when he became Vice Captain . You picked the wrong squad to mess with " Yamamoto explained to Amagai.
" Damn you ! " Amagai shouted as he slams the crux of the hook of his Shikai into the ground creating large fissures of flames that travel to Sasakibe at high speeds.
" Not good enough Sandāyari ( サンダー·槍 Thunder Javelin) " Sasakibe countered as he goes forward with a powerful thrusting stab which launches a large lightning blast shaped like a javelin and he blasts him into the wall of the office.
" Damn, he's too powerful, i didn't think i need this so soon but here i go ! " Amagai said to himself as he charges up his Reiatsu.
" Take this ! " Sasakibe said to Amagai as he shoots another lightning blast to finish off Amagai.
" Bankai: Raika Gōen Kaku (雷火 豪炎殻, Lightning Flash Flame Shell ) " Amagai chanted as he releases his Bankai and uses a massive fire Reiatsu to block the hit.
" Impressive, you managed to use a Bankai correctly , you really have become stronger but Sasakibe is still stronger " Yamamoto said to Sasakibe.
" Now i'll finally get the chance to unleash my Bankai ! " Sasakibe replied as he surrounds himself with an immense purple Reiatsu.
" No more games !Tamashī Fūjionsa ( 魂封止音叉Soul Sealing Tuning Fork)" Amagai chanted as he generates a green wave of Reiatsu which forces Sasakibe back into his sealed sword state.
" What the hell ? What happened to my Zanpakutō ? " Sasakibe asked shocked to see his Zanpakutō back to his Shikai state.
" My Bakkōtō Tamashī Fūjionsa ( 魂封止音叉Soul Sealing Tuning Fork) can negate Shinigami powers. As long as it remains activated,any and all Zanpakutōs are useless regardless of who wields them except my own . With that i can even beat the mightiest of foes " Amagai explained to Yamamoto as Yamamoto notices he can't use his Zanpakuto.
" Damn it, to think the Kasumiōji Clan would construct something that powerful to steal even the Captain Commanders Zanpakutō " Yamamoto stated.
" Now with this weapon, there's not a single Shinigami who can ..." Shūsuke arrogantly taunted only to get punched in the face by Yamamoto and knocked into a wall.
" You forget that i'm the Captain Commander for a reason, do you think i can possibly be Captain Commander if some runt thinks they can beat me with an incomplete Bankai ? How arrogant of you to think you're on my level now , there's a reason why i've been Captain Commander for 1,000 years, that's because there's not a single Shinigami stronger than me " Yamamoto said to Amagai.
" Ha, it doesn't matter how powerful you are, you can't kill me without your Zanpakutō " Amagai replied only to see Yamamoto move at 8 miles per second(28,800 MPH)or Mach 37.5.
" Don't get too arrogant boy ! " Yamamoto replied as he punches Shūsuke 1,000 feet in the air with a single punch.
" What speed and what power, even in my Bankai state, i was unable to follow his movements " Amagai said to himself only to see Yamamoto in front of him .
" You think you can keep up with me ? You're barely on the same level ! " Yamamoto shouted as he kicks Amagai down smashing him into the ground.
" Damn , you ! DAMN YOU ! " Amagai shouted as Yamamoto lands on the ground while Amagai stands there waiting for his attack .
" All attacks you can do on me is useless , you're power level is far below my own " Yamamoto said to Amagai .
" Let's see how confident you are after this attack Gōen Ryūga: Homura (業炎龍牙 焔, Ultimate Dragon Fang Flame: Blaze) " Amagai chanted as he lifts his sword over his head and covers its entirety in flames and slashes at his opponent, launching a giant fireball at him the shape of a phoenix.
" Too weak ! " Yamamoto said to Amagai as he easily catches the fireball bare handed as the fire wave engulfs Yamamoto however the flames do no damage to him.
" IMPOSSBILE! How can you block a Bankai attack so easily with your bare hands ? " Amagai shouted.
" It seems with that Bakkōtō, you gained a RYK of 250,000 judging by that level of attack. You could hurt a Senior Captain in base form however as you see before you even without my Zanpakuto, my RYK is 5,000,000 " Yamamoto explained to Amagai.
" 5,000,000 RYK ? How is that even possible ? " Amagai asked only to see Yamamoto come towards him.
" Allow me to show you the difference in power kid ! " Yamamoto said to Amagai as he sees him in front of him.
" FUCK ! " Amagai shouted as he tires to run.
" Sōkotsu (双骨, Double Bone) " Yamamoto chanted as he does a powerful double punch which shatters Amagai's Torso and causes blood splatter everywhere.
" Way to go Captain Yamamoto ! " Sasakibe said to Yamamoto but Yamamoto then realizes he hit an after image.
" What ? " Yamamoto asked shocked to see he missed only to see Amagai grab Sasakibe from behind and hold him hostage.
" I should've known you would be too powerful for me and i also know that you couldn't possibly be beaten even with your sword sealed however i have set up my own trap for you " Amagai said to Yamamoto as he holds Sasakibe with his Bakkōtō at his neck.
" Coward, resorting to lowly and cowardly tricks like this , you sicken me ! " Yamamoto shouted.
" Looks who's talking, you killed my father in cold blood . I spent years to plan out my revenge and now i'm going to extract it ! " Amagai stated.
Suddenly, all the remaining Captains arrive at the scene to take on Shūsuke. Byakuya , Komamura and Mayuri arrive to take down Amagai.
" He's holding the Vice Captain of Squad 1 hostage ! " Byakuya said to the group.
" How cowardly ! " Komamura replied .
" We can't risk hurting the Vice Captain ! " Mayuri stated.
' I have a plan ! " Byakuya said to the team.
" Let's hear it ! " Komamura replied.
" I'll provide a diversion with my Shikai to lightly cut his wrist so Sasakibe can get free, Komamura you would use your Shikai to back him away and Mayuri get behind him and stab him with your Shikai to briefly stun him " Byakuya explained to the other Captains.
" Brilliant plan ! " Mayuri replied.
All of them try to release their swords however none of them are able to release their swords.
" What's going on ? " Mayuri asked.
" My sword isn't working ! " Byakuya answered.
" Same here ! " Komamura stated.
" HAHAHAHAHA! I told you my Bakkōtō is capable of rendering all Zanpakutō's useless " Amagai explained to the Captains.
" Damn it ! " Komamura shouted.
" Now to activities Plan B ! " Amagai said to Yamamoto.
" Plan B ? " Yamamoto asked.
" Allow me to activate another power of my Bakottto ! " Amagai said to Yamamoto as he creates an energy wave which attracts many Hollows including 10 Menos Grandes.
" What the hell are you doing ? " Yamamoto asked.
" I used a special Reiatsu frequency to attract Hollows to attack my enemies, now for the final plan " Amagai answered as he shoots a beam at Yamamoto which paralyzes him in his tracks and stops him from moving .
" What's going on ? " Yamamoto asked as he can't move .
" Remember Yamamoto. This sword can negate Reiatsu from a Shinigami, if i hit you directly within the Soul Chain with this blast, i can temporarily disable your Shinigami powers and leave you powerless so i go for the kill " Amagai explained to Yamamoto.
" Damn you ! " Yamamoto shouted.
Meanwhile the Captains are having trouble against Menos with only their sealed swords as they dodge the Ceros while fighting off normal Hollows at the same time.
" Captain Commander ! " Byakuya shouted as he rushes to aid him but a Cero nearly hits him.
" This is bad! We can't get past this many Hollows with just our sealed swords " Sajin said to the others as he blocks a punch from one of the Hollows before cutting them down.
" These guys are pest ! Seishinnoudehō(精神の腕砲Spirit Arm Cannon) " Mayuri shouted as he removes the wires on his arms and then his left arm socket becomes a Gatling gun like weapon and shoot down several Hollow around him easily and take out a Menos easily.
Back at the office ,Amagai goes to finish off Yamamoto .
" Captain Commander ! " Sasakibe shouted as he goes to fire a Kidō spell at Amagai but Amagai kicks him through a wall knocking him out
" What pests, now to avenge my father, goodbye ! " Amagai shouted he goes for a beheading slash with his Bankai.
" Not so fast ! " Yoruichi shouted as she kick Amagai 20 feet back into a wall .
" Yoruichi, what are you doing here ? " Yamamoto asked.
" I was too slow, i tried to respond to the issue in the Human World only to see the Vice Captains doing their job so i rushed back here as fast as possible " Yoruichi explained to Yamamoto.
" Yoruichi, former Captain of Squad 2, do you think you can beat me now ? I'm unstoppable now " Amagai arrogantly laughed.
" You're quite overblown in your ego. Do you think you're invincible now ? " Yoruichi asked him.
" No one can beat me now . I'm invincible and soon the whole Soul Society would be mine " Amagai answered.
" Why do you want revenge so badly ? " Yoruichi asked the blue haired Shinigami.
" I doubt an overprivileged bitch like you will understand. I lost my father to that man you call Captain Commander, you have no idea having to hold many years of hatred knowing the killer survived . All i desired was their deaths , i lived to this point to kill that man . With the power granted to me by Kumoi as well as the many years of training i took to reach this level, i will use to eradicate everyone in my way and rule the Soul Society as King " Amagai explained to Yoruichi ranting about Yamamoto.
" So that's why you came to take Yamamoto's life ? Amagai, Yamamoto didn't kill your father. You're father was another victim of the Bakkōtō. As you know, Gyōkaku abused the families technique for making ceremonial swords to create Bakkōtōs. He started by tested the prototypes on humans in the world of the living and then on the lowest of criminals in the Rukongai. Captain Commander Yamamoto was aware of the plan and tried to investigate the Kasumiōji family however Central 46 forbid him from doing so due to a tradition that prevented the Gotei 13 from investigating clans unless they have been warranted with serious crimes " Yoruichi explained to Amagai.
" What the hell do you mean, so you're saying that old man who gave me this was the one who killed him ? " Amagai shouted.
" You're father, 3rd seat Shin'etsu Kisaragi, he was one of the best fighters in the Gotei 13 . Kumoi captured him with his Bakkōtō enhanced warriors and than gave him a special Bakkōtō designed to cut through anything ,even with a Reiastu as high as Yamamoto . It was a Bakkōtō designed to kill me directly. Having no choice, i unleashed my Shikai to kill him and eliminate the threat he posed. Despite being a 3rd seat, he was able to unlock Shikai and learned Bankai recently before his death , the power he gained from the Bakkōtō ampiled his power greatly so he needed to be taken down as fast as possible . Kisaragi's death was covered up and Yamamoto was forbidden to have any official interaction with the Kasumiōji clan " Yoruichi explained to Amagai.
" That two-faced son of a bitch ! I trained to help him realize his goal of a prefect Soul Society when in fact all i cared for is to avenge my father who worked hard and gave everything he had to the Soul Society . I'm going to kill him " Amagai stated.
" So you're Amagai's son, you look just like him. I had no idea he had any children after all these years " Yamamoto replied.
" So are you going to give up ? " Yoruichi asked only to see Amagai point a sword towards her.
" Are you kidding me ? Now when i have got this much power. Now i know who my real enemies are, it's this entire corrupt Soul Society. The Gotei 13 is weak and allows themselves to be intimidated so easily. I have the power to change everything, i can help bring justice to the Soul Society. I can use this power here to conquer and destroy all enemies of the Soul Society. There is no one who can stop me and if you were wise , you would allow me to take over as the ruler of the Soul Society " Amagai explained to the group.
" Have you gone mad or have the Bakkōtō processed you that much that you lost what little rationality there is ? " Yamamoto asked.
" No, i haven't been more sane actually. This whole fucking place is wretched and filthy, i can now act out and eliminate the filth of the Soul Society and i'll start by killing every last person in the Kasumiōji Clan and wipe out all the filthy nobility who have enjoyed their many years of protection from justice " Amagai replied as he's about to go but Yoruichi stops him.
" What are you thinking ? Have you lost it completely ? " Yoruichi asked as she looks at Amagai becoming more malevolent.
" I never been more sane , i'm not going to ask again, accept me as Captain Commander or else you'll all die " Amagai stated.
" We'll never accept a madman like you as Captain Commander ! " Yoruichi replied.
" Then all of you will die ! " Amagai replied as he goes to attack Yoruichi now fully processed with rage.
" He's being consumed with rage and the Bakkōtō is feeding on his mental state, to think learning the truth would make him snap like that " Yoruichi said to herself
Back at the Kasumiōji Clan Hideout
Soifon and Hanza clash attacks with each other . Hanza goes to blind Soifon but she blocks the light with her hands over her eyes.
" You thin blinding me is going to beat me ? Think again " Soifon arrogantly laughed.
" I see, blinding you isn't going to be good enough" Hanza stated only to see Soifon gone. Soifon moves at 60,000ft/sec(40,900 MPH) appearing behind Hanza before he can notice her behind him.
" Too slow ! " Soifon said to Hanza as she kicks him through a wall and 200 feet into the sewers.
" Damn it, she's so fast ! " Hanza said to himself as he sees Soifon come at him with a series of attacks.
Soifon comes at Hanza with a series of 40 fast punches with her left hand but Hanza dodges the punches only to see Soifon behind him a second attempting to stab him with the Shikai in her right hand but he blocks her lunging stab with his Bakkōtō. Soifon kicks him in the head pushing him back 5 feet and then goes for the offensive.
" Way of Onmitsu, 2nd of the Shihō Riarutai Kopīga (リアルReal Body Copy ) " Soifon chanted as she creates 15 clones of herself which are after images to surround Hanza dashing towards him
" That's not enough ! " Hanza replied as he swings his sword in a 360 angle and fires an energy wave from his mirror wiping out the clones .
" Too slow ! Way of Onmitsu, 5th of the Shihō Inazuma Tejun (稲妻手順 Lightning Step ) " Soifon chanted as she doubles her speed and moves at 120,000 ft/sec( 81,800 MPH). Soifon moves so fast she is almost invisible to Hanza's eyes.
" Impossible. I can't keep up with her speed ! " Hanza said to himself as he is exceedingly nervous as Soifon appears 100 feet away from him as the assassin is about to block the attack but before he can notice , his mirror cracks and his right arm glows with a Red Hōmonka.
" You 're hardly a challenge with your mirror shattered ! " Soifon said to Hanza as he notices his mirror broken.
" What the hell ? How did you easily shatter my crystal mirror with such a small weapon ? " Hanza shouted as he notices the mark on his right arm.
" Want to know how ? Way of Onmitsu, 5th of the Shihō Inazuma Tejun (稲妻手順 Lightning Step ) doubles the speed of my Shunpo. With my speed, i can move up to over 100 times the speed of sound. The impact of my Suzumebachi at this speed would be the equivalent of a 3 foot diameter meteor hitting with 187 tons of TNT, that much force condensed into just an 3 inch long blade could pierce even the strongest of defenses " Soifon explained to Hanza.
" Damn it ! I didn't think you we're this stupid Captain " Hanza said to Soifon as all the mirror fragments glow with light and surround her.
" What the hell ? " Soifon asked shocked to see herself engulfed with light.
" I told you, depending on it's wielder, Bakkōtōs can become far more powerful ! " Hanza stated as Soifon is engulfed in a bright light.
Soifon then sees herself surrounded by mirrors everywhere and stares at her younger self as she sees herself 100 years ago with Yoruichi still captain of the Soul Society. They are walking through until they see Kisuke standing there and stabs Yoruichi in the stomach.
" What the hell ? This never happened, what's going on ? " Soifon shouted as she watches Yoruichi die in front of her eyes with Kisuke smiling with an evil grin.
" Captain Soifon, this is Saiga's true power. I will pit you against the nightmares you fear the most . The hatred of Kisuke, the fear of Yoruichi's betrayal and allow that to destroy you " Hanza explained to Soifon as Yourichi emerges as a Hollow and both of them attack Soifon as mindless drones.
" RWAARGH ! " Hollow Yoruichi roared as she kicks Soifon in the stomach .
" ARRGH ! " Soifon shouted as she coughs up blood.
" HAHAHAHAHAHA! " fake Kisuke laughed.
" Let's see if you can conquer your fears Soifon , or will you be destroyed by them ! " Hanza laughed.
" Coward !" Soifon replied as she tires to attack him but Yoruichi kicks her in the face.
" See if you can kill the person you love the most and the person you hate the most at the same time " Hanza stated.
Back inside the Kasumiōji Hideout
Meanwhile Jinpachi Ibara, former 3rd seat of Squad 11 is fighting Rangiku Matsumoto of Squad 10. The brute wields a special Bakkōtō axe Hakaiha ( 破壊刃 Destruction Blade ) which can blast anything to bits depending on how much force he puts into his blade.
" Haineko Waken Kaiten (灰猫は圏を回転 Ash Cat Rotating Sphere ) " Rangiku chanted as she swirls Jinpachi in a spherical cloud of ash 10 feet in diameter 30 feet above the ground.
" Not good enough ! " Jinpachi countered as he swings his axe in a 360 degree angle that causes an explosion and destroys everything within a 200 foot radius canceling out Rangiku's Haineko and blast a hole within the top of the ceiling.
" She canceled out my Haineko , he's indeed very powerful ! " Rangiku said to herself.
" It's such a shame you're a lapdog of the Shinigami , i been ordered to kill all Shinigami, you will make a good sale on the black market as a slave " Jinpachi explained to Rangiku as he raises his axe and slams on the ground creating another explosion but Rangiku jumps up and goes to fire a blast from the hole.
" Hadō # 10 Kaen Hōshaki (火炎放射器 Flamethrower ) " Rangiku chanted as she shoots a stream of flames from her palm.
" Too weak ! " Jinpachi responded as he swings his axe upward negating the firewave and then jumps up to fight Rangiku in the air.
" Growl Nami Haineko (波灰猫, Ash Cat Wave ) " Rangiku chanted as she points the hilt towards Jinpachi and sends a large 30 foot high , 50 foot wide wave of ash at the former 3rd seat.
" Unleash Hakaiha ( 破壊刃 Destruction Blade ) " Jinpachi countered chanted as he uses a concentrate wave of explosions to hit the ash which then creates a jet of flames towards Rangiku.
" Shit ! " Rangiku shouted as she moves out the way. Rangiku then sees a 300 foot long wave of flames that disappears . Rangiku's right arm is lightly brunt from the attack.
" I found out the weakness to your Shikai. You're Shikai is a pretty powerful medium range type weapon however it's also Wind based. Wind is weak against fire and fire is a key element with explosion " Jinpachi explained to Rangiku.
" Damn it ! " Rangiku replied out of breath as she lands in a landfill within the Rukongai to fight the Rangiku Matsumoto.
" So we'll fight here at the city limits ? " Jinpachi asked Rangiku.
" Very well then ! " Rangiku answered.
" This is my favorite place to kill people, they will never find you body here, it also is my favorite place to break down my female victims " Jinpachi stated as he licks his lips.
" You're days of terrorizing people within Soul Society ends here ! " Rangiku replied.
Meanwhile at the Rukongai skies.
300 feet above sea level and 300 meters where Rangiku is at, Hitsugaya clashes his Shikai with the elderly Shinigami welding a scythe.
" Hyōryū Senbi (氷竜旋尾, Ice Dragon Swirling Tail) " Hitsugaya chanted as he swings his sword in a linear direction and creates overflowing ice from his blade in the form of a crescent wave.
" Mikadzuki Fūryoku (三日月風力 Crescent Wind ) " Eisen countered as he swings his scythe and cuts the ice wave with his wind.
" What is that scythe of yours ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" As you can see , my Kami Kyōjusora ( 神を享受空 Sky Reaping God ) can cause powerful wind slashes by using my Reiastu to slice anything it touches . You can't hope but to beat me with your Shikai for i can cut through anything " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya .
" I see, try cutting this ! Hiryūseki (氷竜堰 Ice Dragon Barrage ) " Hitsugaya chanted as he surrounds Eisen with 50 ice dragons.
" Arashi Hosodan ( 嵐細断Storm Shred ) " Eisen countered as he fires a barrages of wind blades at the silver-haired Captain swinging his scythe around with the speed of an automatic firearm.
" Shit ! " Hitsugaya shouted as he dodges the projectiles.
" Now time to die ! Sora Kyojin Hikisa ( 空巨人引裂 Tearing Sky Giant ) " Eisen chanted as he swings his scythe in a circular motion to create a swirling circular vortex of wind.
" What the hell ? " Hitsugaya shouted as he's engulfed within a compressed tornado.
" This attack compresses all my Reiastu and the wind in the sky to compressed wind vortex which shreds anyone inside the vortex " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya as the wind is a now a miniature tornado.
" Bankai :Daiguren Hyorinmaru " Hitsugaya chanted as he releases a burst of freezing cold air . Eisen blocks against the change in Reiatsu and breaks out of the thin ice sheet covering his body using his Reiastu .
" So that's your Bankai ? What a monstrous power ! " Eisen asked as he gets back into fighting stance only to see Hitsugaya gone.
" Too slow ! " Hitsugaya stated as he goes to stab Eisen from behind but the former Vice Captain barely dodges the stab aimed at his head by a few inches.
" As expected, you're definitely Captain class at such a young age " Eisen said to Hitsugaya only to see the Squad 11 Captain behind him.
" Thanks but it's not going to save you ! Ryūsenka (竜霰花, Dragon Hail Flower) " Hitsugaya chanted as he stabs Eisen in shoulder which causes his body to start freezing.
" What is this ? " Eisen asked.
" It's simple, Hyōrinmaru is the strongest of all ice-element Zanpakutō in the Soul Society. He has the power to control any/all ice and water . It 's powerful enough to freeze even the hottest of flames . This is my true form,Bankai :Daiguren Hyorinmaru " Hitsugaya explained to Eisen as a blizzard blows around them.
" I see, so that's the power that makes you captain however you still seem to lack control of that power , it will be bad if you were to accidentally freeze anyone " Eisen stated as the ice spreads to his body .
" It doesn't matter, you're going to be dead in a matter of seconds " Hitsugaya stated.
" Don't count me out just yet kid ! " Eisen replied as he creates a wave of energy around him and shatters the ice.
" What the hell ? " Hitsugaya asked as he sees Eisen's Bakkōtō glove cover his wrist.
" Did you forget i also have a Bakkōtō, however unlike Makoto's Bakkōtō which only increase strength by 2 times, my Bakkōtō increases my power by 10 times and i can increase it even further by gathering all the air in the atmosphere " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya as he creates a tornado that can be seen throughout the Rukongai .
" What immense Reiatsu ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he sees the wind compress around Eisen forming a wind barrier around him condensing to his body.
" Sorakari Yoroi ( 空刈鎧 Sky Reaping Armor ) " Eisen chanted as he now has a wave of wind condensed around his body and Shikai and his Bakkōtō now condenses around his scythe.
" What is that around you ? " Hitsugaya asked as he looks at the air condensed around Eisen.
" This is my Sorakari Yoroi ( 空刈鎧 Sky Reaping Armor ) . It condenses all the air within the atmosphere to form a dense armor of wind with the air pressure moving at supersonic speeds around me and has the force of a F-5 tornado when i collide with an object. This armor does not only increase my defenses, but also augments my destructive power. With this Bakkōtō, i can gather more air to increase my power " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya as he jumps into the Rukongai.
" What are you doing ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" MUHAHWAHA! Let's see if you can fight me with innocent lives at the crossfire kid " Eisen answered.
" I thought you were against the Soul Society for the reason the poor were oppressed, how can you put the lives of these poor people at risk ? " Hitsugaya questioned the elder Shinigami .
" I had a change in values over the years, the real reason i joined Kumoi is because he gave me power. I learn over the years that you have to put some lives at risk to get the end goal. I don't really agree with Kumoi's ideals and i'm really using him for power. No sooner am i done with you, i'll end his life and take over the rebellion and then lead my own revolution " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya.
" I see, you're just a power-hungry hypocrite who is merely using any side you work for to acquire power. You're almost as bad Aizen, you don't care about central 46's corruption. You probably was never a victim of their corrupted ways, you merely jumped shift from the Gotei 13 in pursuit of more power. I can tell your callous and arrogant tone " Hitsugaya explained to Eisen.
" Aren't you a therapist ? I must admit, you have some talent in psycho analysis however think of it this way. What are in the end but just murderers for hire. What difference does it make if you're killing for yourself and killing for your government ? In the end, only the strong survive and the weak perish. The real reason i left wasn't just my own power desires but the fact the Gotei 13 has lost it's ways of being a Shinigami " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya.
" What the hell are you blabbing about ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" The original Gotei 13 were defenders in name only, being comprised from nothing less than a brutal mob of killers, but it was for this very reason that they were a force to be feared. I existed during that time and i murdered thousands of people freely given they were men or women, i rarely killed children because it's more fun to kill adults . In the last 300 years, it's become sissified and it's lost the meaning of what's it's like to be death gods " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya.

Rurichiyo's safehouse
10:30 A.M. Rurichiyo is in her house crying seeing all the destruction being caused by the Bakkōtō assassins are causing because of her.
" Damn that Kumoi, the broadcast is still playing, it's a good thing the Vice Captains and the superhumans protecting the town are fighting off the enemies " Kenryū said to Enryū.
" ..." Enryu nodded only to see a portal open up in the living room which reveals to be Gyōkaku Kumoi.
" I finally found you guys ! " Kumoi said to the group.
" You bastard, you're hurting innocent people ! " Rurichiyo shouted as he takes out an knife and goes to stab Kumoi but Enryū stops Rurichiyo.
" Stop princess, this man is not normal ! " Kenryū said to Rurichiyo.
" You think carefully what to do servant , i wield a very powerful Bakkōtō that can create clones of people to kill each other off but it also comes with one other function " Kumoi explained to Kenryū while Enryū leaves with Rurichiyo.
" Get out of here you two ! " Kenryu shouted.
" It allows me fuel more power to myself by taking 1/10th of the absorbed Reiatsu from my foes and allowing myself to become far stronger than my normal body would allow me " Kumoi explained to Kenryū as his Bakkōtō covers his entire body . His body becomes a massive mass of tentacles condensed into flesh with 8 large tentacles coming out of his back and a giant katana being wielded by Kumoi.
" I guess i have no choice , Bloom Madly Benishidare (紅枝垂, Crimson Weeping Bough) " Kenryū chanted as he unleashes his Shikai.
" Bring it on ! " Kumoi shouted as he stands there.
Rurichiyo and Enryū rush out of the house as an explosion levels the house and Kenryū is easily defeated by one blow with his Shikai broken.
" Kenryū ! " Rurichiyo shouted as she stands there shocked to be defeated so easily .
" Stand back Rurichiyo , get to the safe house at the corner " Enryū shouted in his high-pitched tone.
" Right ! " Rurichiyo replied only to be grabbed by the tentacle of Kumoi's body armor Bakkō.
" Rurichiyo ! " Eneryū shouted as he goes to attack Kumoi .
" Now prepare to die ! " Kumoi shouted as he goes to stab Rurichiyo in the heart.
" Not so fast ! " Ibiki shouted as she swipes Rurichiyo out of the way before he can hit Rurichiyo with his sword.
" Vice Captain Ibiki ! " Kenryū shouted as he's shocked to see her again.
" Get across the street into Ex Captain Isshin's house, i'll deal with this low life " Ibiki said to Kenryu.
" Got it ! " Kenryū replied as he leaves the fight up to Ibiki.
" So you're the one behind all this ? " Ibiki asked.
" Yes and as you can see, i have perfected the finest weapons in the Soul Society " Kumoi answered.
" What's with those assassins you sent here to Karakura Town. Why are they not dying from their blows ? " Ibiki asked the old man.
" Each of the 20 strongest fighters of my organization excluding the power 5 which includes the former Shinigami chief of Patrol Crops Shūsuke Amagai, former Shinigami Vice Captain candidate Makoto Kifune , Former Vice Captain Eisen Glor , Former 3rd seat Jinpachi Ibara and my finest assassin Hanza. The Bakkōtōs have already token over the 20 strongest assassins and will continue to regenerate and grow stronger until they bust " Kumoi explained to Ibiki.
" You monster, how can you do this to your own men ? Why are you trying to destroy the Soul Society ? ! " Ibiki asked as she stands there looking at the leader.
" Since Yamamoto's ascend as the leader of the Gotei 13 and the liberalization of the noble clans that occurred under his rule, the Soul Society has been infested with impurities that drag this great society down. We allow women to take seats within the Gotei 13 and even allow them as Captains, we allow Rukongai vermin to infest the ranks with their lack of moral code and we even allow homosexuals to practice their sinful nature. I've lived 2,560 years and back in my generation things were better and the Rukongai wasn't a shit hole, this to be blamed by Yamamoto softening up the Soul Society and allowing peasants, subhuman and homosexuals as well as women become our police force " Kumoi shouted as he rants more about the Soul Society exposing his vile, sexist, racist and bigoted views.
" So it's true what was expected of you ? You were merely an extremist out to oppose the reforms at the time, you used the vast wealth of the Kasumiōji clan without their consent to forge the weapons used to kill thousands of people opposed to you and rouse up support with the more right-wing elements within the Soul Society. We'll we knew you were known to be a sexist bigot, we didn't think you'll go this far " Ibiki explained to Kumoi.
" How cute, it seems women think that they can be as smart as a man , it's because of women like you, this Soul Society is falling apart. Under my rule, we would govern not only this world but the World of the Living. Under my rule, only men would be allowed to join the Gotei 13, under my rule, no one who descended from a non-Japanese society would be denied entry to the Gotei 13 and under my rule., i will purge the Gotei 13 with homosexuals " Kumoi explained to Ibiki .
" Why do you hate women so much ? " Ibiki asked .
" Because 1,000 years ago, i was the one who helped form the clan by it's finances however instead of making me the leader, they made a woman the leader and the Kasumiōji became the very first clan to ever be lead by a woman . The amoral husband of the very first clan leader was the one who made the Kasumiōji clan, i've lived through 4 clan heads and all of them were women, women don't know how to handle power like a man and that's why our clan is below the Four i have the power to becoming king of the Soul Society and return things to it's glory days " Kumoi explained to the female Vice Captain.
" Well if you have the power to take over the Soul Society ! There is no way i'll allow you to live and overturn the changes we made to this society . Gentei Kajo !Whisper Shizuka Kazeshibō (静かSilent Wind Death ) " Chokorēto chanted as her sealed Zanpakutō turns into a black fan with blades on each end of the fan releasing Reiastu engulfing everything within a 50 foot radius in a whirlwind.

Sasuke goes to slash Guren with his sword but Guren blocks with her diamond blades which crack from the lightning hitting it but Sasuke's blade chips from the impact of hitting hard diamond. Sasuke dodges a lunging stab and then a kick from Guren and goes for a dropkick but Guren blocks with her elbow blades and pushes Sasuke away from her.
" She's tough ! " Sasuke said to himself as he sees Guren go for her attack.
" Shōton: Omiwatari ( 晶遁・御神渡り Crystal Style: Divine Pathway Jutsu ) " Guren chanted as she appears behind him and places her hand on the ground creating a long stream of sharp crystals to bind and pierce Sasuke.
" Chidori Nagashi ( 千鳥流しOne Thousand Birds Current ) " Sasuke countered as he releases Chidori in every direction creating an explosive electrical discharge that shatters the crystals surrounding him.
" Not bad Sasuke but let's see you block this ! " Guren said to Sasuke as she comes towards him with her crystal blades.
" Fire Style : Fireball Justu " Sasuke chanted as he shoots a massive fire blast at close range seemingly burning Guren however it's revealed to be a crystal clone .
" Kesshō Hariseki (結晶針堰 Crystal Needle Barrage ) " Guren chanted as she shoots hundreds of needles towards Sasuke but the Uchiha survivor evades the attack and cuts those coming towards him with his blade.
" That's all you got ? " Sasuke asked only to see Guren above him.
" Shōton: Shuriken Ranbu ( 晶遁・手裏剣乱舞 Crystal Style: Wild Dance of Shuriken )" Guren chanted as she surrounds herself in crystal particles, condensing them into numerous shuriken which then rain onto Sasuke.
" Lightning Style : Senbon Shower " Sasuke countered as he shapes lightning into hundreds of sharp senbon like needles made of lightning which cancel out thee crystal shiruken.
" Suishō Bunshin (翠晶分身Jade Crystal Clone Jutsu ) " Guren chanted as she creates a clone of herself from the mirror and then 5 more for good measure.
" You think you can take me on with clones ? " Sasuke asked Guren .
" Let's see how you fare against my assault " Guren answered as she sends 5 clones to charge right at him .
Sasuke evades one of the clones with Shunshin but the second clone hits him from behind with a kick to the head. Sasuke recovers only to see 2 clones heading towards him with stabbing attacks however the Uchiha survivor cuts both of them down with the swing of his Chidori blade.
" Kesshō: Kyodai Rokkaku Shuriken ( 結晶・巨大六角手裏剣 Giant Crystal Hexagonal Shuriken ) " the three Guren clones chanted as they form giant crystal shurikens and throw them at Sasuke.
" They're fast ! " Sasuke said to himself as he evades the attack only to see the real Guren charging up her laser.
Shōton: Isshi Kōmyō ( 晶遁・一糸光明 Crystal Style: Arrow of Light ) " Guren chanted as she fires a powerful heat blast from her crystal orb in her hands.
" Shit ! " Sasuke shouted as he barely evades the blast as it travels 2 miles east towards a 200 foot hill.
The blast hits the hill and explodes with the yield of 1.06 megatons of TNT which causes a massive explosion leveling everything within a 1.75 mile radius with a shockwave radius of 4.57 miles and sends shrapnel flying as far as 7.42 miles from the epicenter . The blast creates a massive 25,600 foot diameter, 64,000 foot high mushroom cloud with the stem cloud being 10,240 feet in diameter. The cloud disappears to reveal a 500 foot deep, 1,500 foot diameter crater .
" Damn it, i was off by a mark ! " Guren said to herself as she sees Sasuke's wing from his CS2 state partially damaged from the grazing shot from the beat.
" Now it's my turn ! " Sasuke said to himself as he charges up a Cero with lightning around it .
" What the hell is that ? " Guren asked.
" Take this ! Lightning Cero " Sasuke chanted as he fires a wide arc Cero spanning as far as 12 feet wide towards Guren as he guides the lightning speed Cero through all the clones and vaporizes them as the blast heads north.
"ARRGH ! " Guren shouted as she's seemingly vaporized from the Cero as it collides with a large 2,000 foot mountain 4 miles north. The blast blasts a massive hole through the mountain. The large 4,000 foot high mountain has a large 1,000 foot diameter hole at the middle of the mountain. A minute later, the mountain collapses and implodes . Sasuke is worn out firing his massive Cero.
" Damn it, that was too close for comfort . I'm not used to firing these Ceros, it still drains too much power from me " Sasuke said to himself only to see Guren emerge from the ground with a massive crystal dome forming a 1 mile diameter crystal dome.
" That was way too close for both of us, it seems that we're too evenly matched but this is will change everything " Guren said to Sasuke as he crystal dome then glows with a bright light which blinds Sasuke.
" What the hell ? " Sasuke asked shocked to see her still alive while blinded by the light.
" As you can see, i'm using the power of crystal refraction to create a blinding light where you can't fight me on even footing " Guren said to Sasuke.
" I see, so i'll fight without my eyes . Pesquisa ( Spanish for Inquiry )" Sasuke chanted as he tries to home onto Guren but it Sasuke can barely see her even with it activated.
" Trying to sense my Chakra is useless, not even ultrasound can detect the levels of my Chakra. No Chakra sensor has been able to find me thanks to this technique. This is how i was able to be among the candidates of Orochimaru's body oppression until you came along and i was cast aside like garbage only for you to kill him. I'M GOING TO KILL YOU AND AVENGE OROCHIMARU ! " Guren ranted as she goes to attack Sasuke.
" So you think you can kill me even with my senses blocked ? You have no clue how much stronger have i gotten " Sasuke said to Guren as he is barely able to follow Guren and dodges the attack .
Meanwhile at Oorchimaru's hidden base
Karin ,Suigestu and Jūgo go down the base and see the underground lair below the mountain.
" Looks like we found the jackpot " Karin said to the group.
" Indeed , we can now get what we came here for and leave " Suigestu stated.
" Right ! " Jūgo replied only to see Rinji appears right in front of them.
" So you guys all betray Orochimaru ? I must say , i'm disappointed in all of you " Rinji said to the group.
" Rinji, what are you doing here ? " Karin asked.
" I was going to aid Guren when i caught some rats crawling around " Rinji explained to Guren.
" So you came to fight us ? Ha, foolish mistake , we'll take care of you once and for all " Suigetsu shouted only to fall to the ground exhausted of his Chakra.
" Suigetsu ! " Jūgo shouted as he goes to pick up his friend.
" You're too weakened, you guys go and get what we came here for , i'll take care of this guy " Karin said to the team as she takes out a kunai knife.
" So Karin, are you going to show me how you were picked to be Orochimaru's attendant ? " Rinji asked.
" I may not be a powerhouse like the Sound Four or Guren and Kabuto but i can handle myself in a fight Karin answered as she comes at him with her kunai.
Suigetsu and Jūgo rush to get the files from Orochimaru only to see 200 level 2 curse mark prisoners out fully released and ready to take on Jūgo and Suigetsu.
" What the hell is going on here ? " Jūgo asked.
" We got some huge problems here ! " Suigetsu answered.
Meanwhile Karin clashes attacks with Rinji and dodges a few kunai from him. Karin and Rinji stand evenly matched with each other.
" Not bad Karin, you proved yourself in battle ! " Rinji said to Karin.
" Thanks , same here Rinji ! " Karin replied.
" However allow me to separate each other and show you the difference in our power levels. Kōmori Seichū ( 蝙蝠掣肘Bat Controlling)" Rinji chanted as he summons an army of bats around Karin.
" All those bats are summonings ! " Karin said to herself as she sees the bats fly to attack .
" Chōshinha ( 超心波 Ultrasonic Mind Waves ) " Rinji chanted as he has bats produce high frequency ultrasonic waves that crack the walls within the base and causes Karin's glasses to crack and ears to bleed.
" What the hell ? " Karin asked as she falls to the ground stunned from the shockwave.
" My bats can generate soundwaves even more powerful than Dosu's Resonating Echo Drill for they can be used to stun the body with sound and also kill with the power of there soundwaves. Now time for the kill " Rinji explained to Karin as the bats gather air in their lungs and inhale .
" Can't move ! " Karin said to herself.
" Chōto Sonāha ( 超 ソナー波Supersonic Sonar Waves ) " Rinji chanted as he has all his 10 bats fire powerful blasts of supersonic speed air which blows a huge hole in the wall but Karin dodges the attack and goes to attack with her own counterattack.
" Doku Kōsui Yōsha ( 毒香水溶射Poison Perfume Spray ) " Karin chanted as she sprays a massive amount of pink perfume towards Rinji .
" Chōto Sonāha ( 超 ソナー波Supersonic Sonar Waves ) " Rinji countered as he uses the sound wave to generate a wind wave to blow away the perfume .
" Looks like you're going to be tougher than i thought " Karin said to Rinji.
" Indeed. I look forward to killing you ! " Rinji replied.
Meanwhile 200 meters from the Kurosaki Clinic
Ibiki and Kumoi continue their fight however Kumoi remains to be too strong for Ibiki and he stands there without a starch from Ibiki's attacks.
" What's going on ? Why aren't i able to cut him and he's increased his power and yet he's not being consumed by his Bakkōtō ? " Ibiki said to herself .
" You're probably thinking why your special power sapping poison has no effect on me or why my Bakkōtō isn't taking over my body . I'll be glad to answer that , my Bakkōtō is controlled by a special power orb within the center of my Bakkōtō which causes the Bakkōtō to feed on the orb while supplying me power. This orb allows me to cheat the Bakkōtō's power and i suffer no side effects from it " Kumoi explained to Ibiki as he shows a blue orb at the center of his chest.
" That looks like the Hōgyoku Aizen made , where did you get that ? " Ibiki asked the leader.
" Sōsuke Aizen you say ? Well it's simple, Aizen was planning to originally request our services to help overthrow the Soul Society 130 years ago. He originally created the Hōgyoku using the same technology used to create my Bakkōtōs . Aizen has failed to create many different Hōgyokus over the years, this is a mere imitation of the Hōgyoku. While not nearly as powerful as the perfected one, it gives me Captain level Reiastu and it's powerful enough to prevent the Hōgyoku from taking me over " Kumoi explained to Ibiki as he raises his power.
" What is your connection to Sōsuke Aizen ? " Ibiki asked.
" I knew that he was out to take down the Soul Society for what they did to him . Before he joined the Gotei 13, he was trained by my élite bodyguards and he grew rapidly in power. His strength was amazing , we helped him cover up his crimes and he was a valuable asset when he was a Vice Captain. His Kyōka Suigetsu was an asset to us all in the separatist of the Kasumiōji Clan " Kumoi explained to Ibiki.
" So what became of you and Aizen ? Are you working for Aizen now ? " Ibiki questioned the old man .
" Unfortunately for me, he didn't see us as anything more than expendable. Aizen wanted to overthrow and destroy the traditions of the Soul Society which conflicted with my ideals and we had a falling out. No sooner did he create his first Arrancars, he didn't need us anymore and threatened to out us if we were to try to get in his way. That ungrateful son of a bitch, he would be nothing without us, he wouldn't be able to complete his Hōgyoku projects without our help and his ideals of trying to give everyone, even women the same rights really disgusted me . I made this Hōgyoku copy in case Aizen was to return and try to silence the group if word ever got out about our connection " Kumoi explained to the young Vice Captain.
" That's saying alot when even a scumbag traitor like Aizen sees you as trash. You're the lowest of scum trying to destroy this society and try to drag us into the dark ages. I will stop you once and for all " Ibiki stated.
" Sorry but you forget to factor one thing , i still hold the edge in this fight and to further make the deal to me . I have one last assassin targeting a specific group of people still left here " Kumoi replied as he takes out his microphone.
" What are you doing ? " Ibiki asked him shocked to see him starting to talk on the microphone.
Meanwhile across Karakura Town
Kumoi makes a speech across the town that can be heard through all the soul phones within the area.
" Attention all Shinigami, i have an important announcement to make about the state of your town " Kumoi said to everyone.
Meanwhile at the Komatsu district 200 meters south of the derailed 10 car passenger train. Renji is listening to the old man.
" What the hell ? It's the leader of the rebellion ! " Renji said to himself.
" As you're aware , they're four spiritually aware humans still in this town and one assassin still here " Kumoi explained to the group.
Meanwhile Rukia is listening while blocking the attacks from the poison assassin.
" He's after Keigo, Tatsuki and the others ! " Rukia said to herself as she barely avoids the slash.
" The powerful Bakkōtō user is at the level of a Vice Captain and the 4 humans he's after aren't even academy student level " Kumoi said to the Shinigami.
Meanwhile at the downtown district within the center of a shopping mall. Hisagi hears the news of Kumoi's plan.
" They're were still humans here ? How ? I thought the Reiteki Hogosaegi would of token them away " Hisagi said to himself as he dodges his opponents attacks.
Meanwhile 200 meters north of Karakura South Primary School. Nanao hears Kumoi's broadcast .
" It would be unfortunate if something were to happen to those humans wouldn't it " Kumoi stated.
" That coward ! " Nanao replied as she barely dodges the whip.
Meanwhile at the Kasazuki district. Iba hears the speech about Kumoi.
" What is he thinking targeting humans ? " Iba said to himself.
Meanwhile at the downtown District, Momo is listening to the old man.
" If you want these humans to survive, surrender yourselves and surrender Rurichiyo Kasumiōji or they will die " Kumoi explained to the Shinigami.
" Leave the humans out of this ! " Momo shouted.
Meanwhile Jinta and Ururu are also fighting while listening to the speech.
" We got to take these guys down and fast " Jinta stated as he fires a shot hitting down his opponent.
" Indeed but they're too strong , we need to deal with them somehow " Ururu replied as dodges shoots from her opponents.
" The enemy that's after them can potentially grow into a Captain Class threat if you try to take him on in battle, even with 10 Vice Captains fighting the guy, you can't defeat him and with all the Captains dealing with Hanza,Eisen or Amagai, you guys are all screwed " Kumoi arrogantly laughed .
Meanwhile Nova, Ririn and Cloud are listening to this.
" This is really bad ! " Ririn shouted.
" The one's were fighting started off only as 3rd seat level threats and grew to Vice Captain level " Nova explained to the group.
" If this guy after the humans can be at Captain level, even the two Bankai users, Rukia and Renji can't beat him combined " Cloud stated.
" Asumming they can go Bankai after using all their power against these monsters " Ririn replied.
Meanwhile at Karakura Town northern city limits, Uryū and Chad are listening to the broadcast.
" So they're using Tatsuki as a hostage ? " Uryū asked.
" As well as Keigo , Mizuro and Chizuru " Chad answered.
" This is bad, we need to go all out an destroy these creatures and take care of the monster attacking Tatsuki and the group " Uryū stated.
" Very well then, no more playing around ! " Chad replied as he releases his Reiatsu.
" Luchiryo, if you can hear this, you must surrender yourself or i'll kill everyone dear to you including those innocent humans " Kumoi stated.
Meanwhile at the block where Kisuke's shop is at, Kisuke listens to the speech.
" Ryūken, if you're out there, head to Karakura Town right now and save Tatsuki and the group " Kisuke said to himself as he goes to avoid the attack from his clone.
Meanwhile at Karakura High School
Tatsuki and the group see a ninja jump up to their classroom wielding a Bakkōtō with flames covering the blade.
" What the hell ? " Tatsuki shouted.
" Yikes, it's one of the assassin " Keigo shouted as the ninja comes towards them slowly with his blade touching the desk and setting them on fire.
" What do we do ? " Chizuru asked.
" Well here goes nothing ! " Mizuro replied as he pulls out a handgun and aims it at the assassins head only to see the gun cut in half.
" He's so fast ! " Keigo shouted only to see the assassin behind him about to stab him.
" Stay away from my friends ! " Tatsuki shouted as she kicks the assassin in the face and knocks him into the chalkboard.
" What a kick ! " Keigo shouted.
" There's no time for that, we all have to run " Tatsuki shouted as they all run from the flame wielding Bakkōtō monster.
The group is chased by the Bakkōtō wielder as they run down the stairs while the ninja sets everything around him a blaze.
Meanwhile at the Kurosaki Clinic
Isshin is watching from his barrier house as Ibiki and Kumoi clash outside causing rumblings outside.
" So that's his A game ? " Isshin said to the group inside.
" He's gone through all the lengths to kill Rurichiyo to the point he has an ace in the hole " Kenryū stated.
" Don't worry about it , i'll contact Ryūken right now ! " Isshin replied as he puts Ryūken's name on speed dial.
Back 200 meters from the Kurosaki Clinic
Ibiki struggles to put any form of damage to Kumoi while evading his massive tentacles which smash apart concrete and cars within the road while Ibiki is hiding in the mist.
" You can't hide from me forever ! " Kumoi shouted as he generates electricity from his tentacles and swings them n electrocuting the ground and causing a shockwave which blows away the mist.
" Damn it , my cover has been blown ! " Ibiki said to herself as she seems Kumoi charge up an electrical beam with his tentacles and fires it at Ibiki which causes a large explosion.
" Ha, got you ! " Kumoi shouted only to see Ibiki above him.
" Muonautā Fūsokuyari (無音アウター風速やり Silent Kill Wind Spears ) " Ibiki chanted as she generates 10 nearly invisible wind spears around the dome and with a swing of her fan sends them to hit Kumoi but the attacks do no damage to him.
" Haahahahaaha! You're attacks have no effect on me as long as i have this imitation of the Hōgyoku " Kumoi laughed as he creates a slashwave which cuts down a street lamp.
" Odorusori (踊るそりDancing Razor ) " Chokorēto chants as she spins her fan creating razor winds that move in a X pattern which pushes Kumoi back and cuts a bit into his armor however it regenerates with the Hōgyoku appearing to regenerate the armor .
" My Hōgyoku copy can regenerate any wound sustained within my armor , you can't hope to defeat me " Kumoi laughed as Ibiki stands there worn out.
" Damn it , i need to find a way to remove the Hōgyoku from him " Ibiki said to herself.
Meanwhile at the Seireitei
Captains without Zanpakutōs are forced to fight an army of hollows and Menos.
" Seishinnoudehō(精神の腕砲Spirit Arm Cannon) " ) " Mayuri chanted as he fires 120 shots a second of bullets made of spiritual energy which take out 20 hollows and 2 Menos.
" Hadō #4. Byakurai (白雷, Pale Lightning) " Byakuya calmly chanted as he puts his right hand up and shoots a lightning bolt from his finger killing 5 Hollows and 3 Menos.
" Jabarakaina (蛇腹腕, "Snake Belly Arm") " Mayuri chanted as he arms his left hand extends out like a grappling hook which smashes the face of the Menos killing it with the explosion.
" RWWARGH ! "a Menos roared as he charges up a Cero and fires it at Mayuri.
" Hadō #33. Sōkatsui (蒼火墜, Blue Fire, Crash Down) " Byakuya countered as he uses a powerful blast of blue fire to intercept the Cero and blasts through the Meno's head , splattering it and killing it.
" Hakuda # 2 Kyōseiteki Nipāmu (強制的にパームForce Palm)" Sajin chanted as he creates a short-range shockwave from the palm of his giant phantom hand which destroys 20 Hollows with one blow .
" Hadō # 23 Chikara hakki(力発揮Force Exert) " Mayuri chanted as he fires a shockwave from the palm of his hand knocking back 10 hollows into walls killing them.
" Hadō # 34. Kongōbaku (金剛漠爆,Adamantine Blast)" Byakuya replied as he fires a large fireball towards a Menos, killing the creature.
" Hakuda # 12. Tairubureiku (タイルブレイクTile Break)" Sajin chanted as he attacks with a swift chop cutting a Hollow in half.
Meanwhile more Hollows and Menos appear from the portals as they keep opening up.
" How many more of them are going to attack ? " Byakua asked the team.
" There seems to be no end to these creatures ! " Sajin answered.
" Well i see, i guess it's time i put these new weapons to the test " Mayuri stated as he clicks on a button.
Suddenly 50 seated officer level Shinigami androids appear who are still in their notable incomplete stages with no synthetic skin and looking more like robots to go fight the Hollow horde led by Nemu .
" What are those ? " Byakuya asked.
" This is the answers to the troop displacement caused by the invasion of Konoha " Mayuri answered as the Shinigami droids help aid in taking down the endless hordes of Hollows.
" So this is the troop replacements you're trying to create ? " Sajin asked as the Shinigami droids take out some of the Hollows.
" Yep and i've just gotten started with the creation of these models , soon, we will make the Gotei 13 even stronger " Mayuri replied as he continues to fight off the Hollows.
Meanwhile at squad 11, Ikkaku, Yachiru , Yumichika and Kenpachi are taking out as much Hollows as possible.
" This is more like it ! " Kenpachi shouted as he slashes down 20 Hollows and a Menos with one slash.
" Yeah, Kenny is having fun ! " Yachiru shouted as she hops on Kenpachi's back.
" I was looking forward to this all day ! " Ikkaku shouted as he dodges a Cero from a Menos.
" Hopefully these dirty hollows don't mess up my hair ! " Yumichika replied as he cuts down 5 hollow with his sealed sword.
Back at Karakura Town
All the Vice Captains are worn out fighting there foes however they all come to notice their foes are becoming larger and more sluggish when it comes to speed as they Bakkōtō's expand from the Reiatsu.
" That's it, they can only absorb a limit of their Reiatsu, anything past a ordinary Vice Captain's Reiatsu they can't handle . Looks like i found they weakpoint of the Bakkōtōs " Nanao said to herself as the Bakkōtō wielder she's fighting swings his whips towards Nanao and smashes an entire building with a casual strike of the whips.
" RAWWARGH ! " the Bakkōtō manic roared as he slams both whips into the ground creating a massive 300 foot radius shockwave leveling 5 buildings but he hits a paper clone.
" Kamiyari ( 紙の槍 Paper Spear ) " Nanao chanted as she throws a spear made of paper to go through the Dragon and then explode disabling the justu and surrounding the Bakkōtō assassin with hundreds of floating paper spinning around him.
" WWARRGH ! " the Bakkōtō monster shocked to see Nanao standing there with paper around him.
" My Shikai Kami no Ken(紙の剣 Paper Sword) is a Kidō type Shikai made of special paper made to absorb and cut Kidō based attacks down . Kamifūkikyū ( 紙封着球Paper Sealing Sphere ) " Nanao explained as she traps the Bakkōtō wielder in a paper sphere which drops him to the ground trapping him in a paper ball while she holds on to the hilt.
" RWWARGH ! " the Bakkōtō wielder shouted as it struggles to break out.
" Kaminoki (紙の木Paper Tree) " Nanao chanted as she forms a 100 foot high tree made entirely of paper which lacerates into the paper sphere killing the Bakkōtō wielder.
" ARRRGH ! " the Bakkōtō wielder shouted as he expands into a balloon like shape and explodes dying from the explosion.
" Now time to help the others ! " Nanao said to herself as she's worn out from her battle and goes to call the others.
Meanwhile Renji gets a call from Nanao about his opponent.
" Guys, i found a way to beat them ! " Nanao said to Renji.
" How do we beat these guys ? They're growing even stronger " Renji asked.
Meanwhile Iba is hearing the call from Nanao.
" You need to exhaust them long enough until the eye pops out and then hit them with all your Reiatsu and bust them to pieces " Nanao answered.
Meanwhile Rukia listens to Nanao's speech.
" So that's how we take them down ? " Rukia asked Nanao.
" Yes, we have to go all out ! " Nanao answered.
Meanwhile Hisagi hears about the plan.
" I see, then it's time to stop playing around then ! " Hisagi stated as he releases his Reiatsu.
Meanwhile Kiyone and Sentarō hear about it and power up as well.
" It's time we used our ultimate attack ! " Kiyone said to Sentarō.
" Indeed ! " Sentarō replied .
Meanwhile Renji gets serious and removes his limiter.
" Time to get serious , Gentei Kaijo ! " Renji chanted as he releases the limiter for his Bankai,
" ARRAURGH ! " the assassin shouted as it charges towards Renji but Renji slams his Bankai's mouth into the left shoulder of the assassin and drags him 330 feet high in the air and pushes the assassin, ripping off its left arm. A giant eye then appears at the center of the chest and starts to heal while aiming it's cannon towards Renji.
" I see so that's your game huh ? I'll use my best attack " Renji shouted as he charges up an energy blast inside the mouth of Zabimaru.
" ARRWARGH ! " the assassin shouted as he charges up a massive water blast inside it's canon and launches a 20 foot wide water wave moving at 3450 ft/sec
" Hikōtsu Taihō (狒骨大砲, Baboon Bone Cannon) " Renji chanted as Hihiō Zabimaru fires a dense blast of concentrated spiritual energy from it's mouth. The blast completely obliterates the assassin entirely.
Meanwhile at the downtown District, Momo has her assassins trapped in a Kidō trap.
" You fell start for my trap ! " Momo said to the assassins .
" AARRGUH ! " the assassin shouted .
" Shoot forth, Yaku Momonoki (焼く桃木 Burning Peach Tree) " Momo chanted as she hits her Zanpakutō into the ground and then a massive column of pink fire 20 feet in diameter appears over the assassin that branches like a tree and grows up to 200 feet high.
" ARRAURGH ! " the assassin shouted as it struggles to heal from the immense burns which forces the eye of the Bakkōtō to come out.
Meanwhile Jinta and Ururu power up with their own counterattack.
" I must go full power ! " Ururu said to Jinta as she enters a trance like state.
" Same here , time to fire the ultimate shot of my blaster " Jinta said to Uuru as he loads a special bullet into the gun he's wielding.
Meanwhile Cloud, Ririn and Nova trap the assassins within their barrier.
" Let's try our new attack ! " Rnrin said to the group.
" Right ! " Cloud replied.
" We been waiting to use this for a while ! " Nova said to the group as they all go to fight.
Meanwhile Iba sees his foe come towards him.
" ARRGH ! " the Bakkōtō monster shouted as he dashes towards Iba.
" Too slow Nenshōen ( 燃焼円 Combustion Circle ) " Iba shouted as he stabs his Zanpakutō into the ground that then goes towards the Bakkōtō wielder and forms a pentagram around him and shoots a large blast of red energy from the ground shooting 500 feet high and 50 feet in diameter which burns the monster alive vaporizing it to bits.
Meanwhile Rukia sees her foes charge right towards her with his Bakkōtō.
" San no mai, Shirafune (参の舞・白刀, Third Dance, White Sword)" Rukia chanted as she calls out the name of the dance, which reforges her Zanpakutō with ice particles piercing through the Bakkōtō assassins.
" ARRGH ! " the Bakkōtō monster shouted as it struggles to regenerate with the eye appearing on his head.
" Bankai : Shirayuki Shiro Tsukihime( 白雪,姫白月 White Snow, White Moon Princess ) " Rukia chanted as she swings her Bankai shortly after release and splits the Bakkōtō wilder in half , killing it instantly.
Meanwhile Hisagi's foe charge towards him in an attempt to slash Hisagi.
" Reap Kazeshini (風死, Wind Death) " Hisagi chanted as he swings his Shikai which rips through the armor of the monster and strikes the weak point of the neck.
" ARRGUCH ! " the Bakkōtō assassin shouted as he struggles to move.
" Sannichi Ōgama Kazeshini (三日剴風死鎌 Crescent Scythe Wind Death) " Hisagi chanted as he spins both his Kusarigamas until they generate rotating wind around the edges with a green aura. Hisagi forms an eerie green skull aura around him as he shreds the Bakkōtō wielder to shreds beyond repair.
Meanwhile Kiyone and Sentarō go to attack the monsters.
" Haobōshi Namisetsudan ( 刃を紡波を切断糸 Spinning Blade Cutting Wave ) " Kiyone shouted as she spins her whip and fires a massive disc shaped blast towards the Bakkōtō monster and cuts the monster in half and causes it to explode.
" Mokusei Funsaiouchi (木製戦粉砕を打ち Wooden War Spiking Smash ) " Sentarō chanted as he throws his hammer which turns into a wooden spike ball moving at 3,230 MPH and hits the Bakkōtō monster which goes through the Bakkōtō monster and kills it instantly.
Both 2 assassins charge at the two however Jinta and Ururu take out the users with their strongest attack.
" Jinta .50 Caliber Sekkiseki Bullet " Jinta chanted as he hits one of the assassins smashing his skull to pieces with the shot which causes it to vaporize.
" ARRGH ! " the Bakkōtō monster as the monster disappears.
" These Sekkiseki bullets pack 3 times more stopping power than normal rounds ...however i can only fire one at a tie " Jinta explained to the enemy before falling to the ground.
" Ururu Genocide Striking Kick " Ururu chanted as she kicks the enemy 1,200 times which splatter the enemy to bits and then does an axe kick causing a massive explosion vaporizing the Bakkōtō wielders .
" We did it ! " Jinta said to Ururu as he passes out.
" I'm at ... my limit ! " Ururu replied as she passes out as well .
Meanwhile Cloud, Ririn and Nova go out to use their full power.
" Onpaokisei Bakudan (音波爆弾を奇声Screeching Sonic Bomb ) " Ririn chanted as she releases a wave of sound which stuns all 3 Bakkōtō assassins
" Higa Zekkō (狒牙絶咬, Baboon Fang Bite")" Cloud chanted as he uses his Shikai fragments to levitate them in the air and the all go flying towards the assassins pining them down and forcing them to the ground.
" Now Nova, use your instant kill technique ! " Ririn said to Nova.
" Right , Hakai Boido ( 破壊ボイ Destruction Void ) " Nova chanted as he creates a massive black hole which tears apart the ground and rips all the Bakkōtō monsters and then suck them into the void leaving only a 10 foot diameter, 5 foot deep crater.
" That took everything we got ! " Ririn said to the group as she passes out.
" Indeed , we're put everything we got into killing them ! " Cloud replied as he also passes out.
" Now the town is safe ! " Nova responded as he's the last one to pass out.
Meanwhile Uryū and Chad go to take out the final 10 Bakkōtō wielder.
" Time to test out my new ability ! " Uryū said to Chad as the 5 gun type Bakkōtō wielders try to shoot them.
" I'll get out of the way " Chad replied as he moves out the way from Uryu.
" Selee Schindler :Streuen Riegel ( German for Scattering Bolt ) " Uryū chanted as he hits each of the Bakkōtō wielders with a series of shots with each bolt hitting through the skull. Then Uryū drops a Gintō which then causes a series of small explosion vaporizing each of them.
" What was that just now ? " Chad asked.
" Selee Schindler :Streuen Riegel ( German for Scattering Bolt ) is a weaker yet more concentrated version of Sprenger which causes the enemies Reiatsu to detonate onto itself, killing them with their own power. I can kill up to 5 enemies with this one move " Uryū explained to Chad.
" I see , you really have been training , i haven't fallen that behind either " Chad responded as he dashes towards the 5 mêlée Bakkōtō users.
" ARGURAWRGH ! " the Bakkōtō monsters shouted as they dash towards Chad.
" Brazo de Estrellazo del Gigante ( Spanish for Dashing Arm of the Giant ) " Chad chanted as he gathers energy around his right armored arm and dashes at 5 times the speed of sound and cuts all the Bakkōtō wielders in half with a single punch.
" How did you do that ? " Uryū asked.
" Captain Soifon taught me to use the combination of speed and strength to increase my power and i increased my power to the point i can cut people in half with the combination of my speed, power and the shaping of my Reiatsu " Chad explained to Uryū.
" Impressive but we can't waste time showing off, we need to rescue Tatsuki " Uryū stated as he rushes with Chad.
Meanwhile 200 meters from the Kurosaki Clinic
Ibiki and Kumoi continue their fight with each other when he notices all his assassins are dead.
" Damn it, what's going on ? How were my élite Bakkōtō users defeated ? " Kumoi asked.
" You underestimate the power of the Gotei 13 , the people you deem as rejects, weak or soft have proven to be more than a match for people as well as you who have to rely solely on your weapons " Ibiki explained to the Kumoi.
" How is using my Bakkōtōs any different to you Shinigami using your sword ? " Kumoi questioned the Vice Captain.
" A Bakkōtō is merely a weapon, it doesn't have a soul, a Zanpakutō on the other hand does. We rely on more than our Zanpakutō and our Zanpakutō's rely on us. We are one in the same, your Bakkōtō's are merely parasites who feed on your life force " Ibiki explained to Kumoi.
" I see, however you guys missed one ! " Kumoi stated with a smile.
" Missed one ? " Ibiki shouted.
" Now you guys are going to be responsible for the death of those humans " Kumoi replied with a laugh.
Meanwhile 200 meters south of Karakura High School
Tatsuki and her group are at a dead-end within an alley where a flaming Bakkōtō wielder comes closer to them.
" Crap, we're done for ! " Keigo shouted.
" Run, i'll hold him off ! " Tatsuki shouted as she rips out a pipe from the wall.
" Tatsuki, you stand no chance ! " Chizuru shouted.
" Shut up, i'm the strongest one here, i'll try to fight him off. Try finding help meanwhile " Tatsuki shouted.
" Let's go guys, there isn't much we can do here " Mizuro stated.
" Tatsuki don't ! " Keigo shouted only to be grabbed by Mizuro as they run away from the monster as Tatsuki blocks the flaming sword with the lead pipe.
" Tatsuki you fool ! " Chizuru shouted .
" Damn it, the heat from his sword is burning my hands and melting the pipe " Tatsuki shouted as the pipe melts from the intense heat and Tatsuki's hands are burned from the heat.
" RWAWARUGH ! " the Bakkōtō wielder shouted as the monster goes to swing his sword.
" SHIT ! " Tatsuki screamed in horror as she's incapable of moving.
Back at Karakura High School
30 seconds after they ran, they arrive 200 meters from the alleyway when they see a massive explosion .
" SHIT ! " Keigo shouted.
" The blast wave is heading towards us ! " Mizuro shouted as the flames burn through everything.
" TATSUKI ! " Chizuru shouted .
" WE'RE DEAD TOO ! " Keigo shouted as the fire wave heads towards them.
" Spiegelt ( German for Reflect ) " Ryūken chanted as he protects himself, Keigo, Mizuro and Chizuru with a barrier.
After 30 seconds of the blast, the explosion clears up to reveal 30 buildings were leveled within a 600 foot radius of the alley and everything within a 1,000 foot radius has caught on fire .
" Tatsuki ! " Keigo shouted.
" We've would've been dead had not for her standing back " Mizuro stated.
" It can't be the end ! " Chizuru shouted as she starts to cry only for Ryūken to grab her.
" She's not dead, her life-force is still intact but she needs serious treatment " Ryūken said to the group.
" What are you talking about ? " Keigo asked.
" You guys are spiritually aware like myself and you can't sense your comrades power ? She needs treatment but she'll live thanks to me " Ryūken answered.
" What are you talking about ? " Chizuru asked.
" Shortly before the blast detonated i shot a special Gintō to protect Tatsuki from 99 % of the blast, i wasn't expecting a blast that big and should've used a stronger Gintō however she's treatable " Ryūken answered.
" I can sense it, it's faint but Tatsuki is still alive " Keigo stated.
Meanwhile all the Vice Captains arrive to see what happened.
" What's going on here ? " Renji asked Ryūken.
" We had a minor Captain level explosion within the area " Ryūken answered.
" Whoa, that last Bakkōtō was that strong ? " Rangiku asked shocked.
" We would've had several dead had not for my Gintō , you Shinigami take care of the rest of these humans, i have a patient to treat " Ryūken answered.
" Okay, we'll protect them with our lives ! " Rangiku replied.
" We're glad to see people like you here again " Mizuro stated trying to put the moves on Rangiku.
" Get into the building and we'll protect you all " Nanao said to the teenagers.
" But the entire building is on fire ! " Chizuru stated.
" Hado # 9 Mizugan Gazō( 水ガン画像Water Gun Shot ) " Momo chanted as she fires a wave of water which extinguishes all the flames in the building.
" Awesome, she took out all the flames with ease " Keigo shouted.
" It's no big deal, Momo is a master at using Kidō " Renji replied.
" It's good to see you guys are alright " Uryū said to the group.
" Let us protect the humans, you guys fight that guy within the Kurosaki clinic " Chad said to the group.
" Very well then ! " Rukia replied as everyone heads out to fight Kumoi.
Meanwhile 200 meters above Kisuke's shop
Meanwhile at the block where Kisuke's shop is at, Kisuke and Tessai destroy both of their clones with their own attacks with Kisuke transformed in his Bankai and Tessai reverting back to his sealed sword.
" To think the clones would force us to use our Bankai " Kisuke said to Tessai.
" It's fortunate that they were easily destroyed in one hit so we didn't have to use our full power attacks in that state " Tessai replied.
" There's no doubt about it, Kumoi had the Hōgyoku with him ! " Kisuke explained to Tessai.
" Indeed, there's no way a mere man like him with no Shinigami powers could create clones that powerful without the Hōgyoku and Bakkōtō " Tessai stated.
" Figures, he might be the link to how Aizen completed the Hōgyoku , in other words, he must of been creating Hōgyoku copies long before i started research on one " Kisuke explained to Tessai.
" Didn't you get the original concept idea from former 3rd seat of Squad 5 Jeff Sheelal ? " Tessai asked.
" I based the Hōgyoku on Jeff's idea but instead of attempting to harvest souls for the work, i went to Hucedo Mundo and found the rare Reisutōnsage minerals and created for my own purpose of understanding the balance of humans and Hollows as well as Shinigami . Going what i can guess on what's going on , Aizen must've had help with Kumoi's Bakkōtō to form his own attempts however his Hōgyoku never reached the level of the one i created " Kisuke explained to Tessai.
" Still wouldn't Kumoi be a problem even with an incomplete Hōgyoku ? " Tessai asked Kisuke.
" Not really, Kumoi isn't a Shinigami and his Hōgyoku is imperfect. Once his Bakkōtō is destroyed, he's virtually powerless " Kisuke answered.
Back 200 meters south of Karakura High School
Ryūken arrives at the scene where Tatsuki is is lying unconscious. Tatsuki is within a 12 foot diameter, 4 foot deep crater with only minor burns around her arms and legs and most of clothes burned but is still alive. 30 buildings have been leveled and vaporized by the heat with 50 buildings within a 1,000 foot radius have been damaged by flying debris and caught on fire.
" What happened here ? My Gintō shield was destroyed by the explosion and barely protected the human girl " Ryūken said to himself as he thinks back a few minutes ago.
2 minutes ago
Ryūken's pov
I was in able to get out of a doctors conference when he gets a call from Isshin about the Karakura crisis .
" Where are you going Dr Ishida ? " one of the doctors asked.
" I was just noted that one of my patients needs emergency treatment and i'm need back real fast " i answered as i head out the room.
I drove as fast as i can risking police catching me in my car for 1.5 minutes until i reached a vacant landfill and then used Hirenkyaku to reach here in 15 seconds and then saw that girl in trouble.
" RWAWARUGH ! " the Bakkōtō wielder shouted as the monster goes to swing his sword.
" SHIT ! " Tatsuki screamed in horror as she's incapable of moving.
" Spiegelt ( German for Reflect ) " i chanted as i shot the Gintō to block the blow in time however no sooner did his sword collide, the explosion blew it up.
Present Day
3rd person pov
" Something isn't right, the angle of attack, method of attack and Reiatsu level of this explosion is far too high for a Vice Captain level Reiatsu and while the barrier protected against a 45 ton level explosion, she was still hit by 1% of the blast . That's 90 lbs of TNT, how did a human,even with slight spiritual awareness survive an explosion that could take out an heavily armored battle tank let alone equal a FOAB ? " Ryūken said to himself as he picks up Tatsuki and carries him away.
Back 200 meters from the Kurosaki clinic
Ibiki senses that the humans left in Karakura Town are alright however she's at her limit of power as Kumoi slams her into the wall of a building .
" You Shinigami might've saved those humans however there's no saving you or the fate of the Soul Society . As we speak, you're captain commander is powerless and all the Captains are dealing with Shūsuke and his élite men, soon i'll rule both this world and the Soul Society " Kumoi laughed as he charges up 8 Cero like beams from each of the giant on his back.
" Damn it, i can't move !" Ibiki shouted.
" Now die you whore ! " Kumoi chanted as he fires a massive Cero-like beam towards Ibiki.
" Bakudo 39 Enkosen ( 円閘扇,Arc Shield) " Momo and Nanao chanted as they create a barrier blocking the Cero from Kumoi, protecting Ibiki.
" What the hell ? " Kumoi shouted as all the Vice Captains in Karakura Town arrive to take on Kumoi.
" You're brand of the Soul Society won't be accepted within the Gotei 13 " Rukia said to Kumoi.
" More weak women and emasculated men coming to fight the new king of the Soul Society ? How laughable " Kumoi arrogantly laughed.
" Don't act high and mighty here , we're be more than enough to take you down ! " Renji replied.
" Are you all stupid ? I may not posses the real Hōgyoku but with the combination of the Hōgyoku copy Aizen once gave me and my Bakkōtō, i can regenerate any wound sustained within my armor , you can't hope to defeat me . My Bakkōtō is controlled by a special power orb within the center of my Bakkōtō which causes the Bakkōtō to feed on the orb while supplying me power. This orb allows me to cheat the Bakkōtō's power and i suffer no side effects from it. With this combined power, even a normal plus like myself has the power equal to a Shinigami Captain with the added benefits of regeneration, you'll need all 13 Vice Captains or at least 2 Captains to even make me break a sweat " Kumoi arrogantly laughed as he gloats his power.
" You're nowhere close to a Captain in power, just because you wield a power of a Captain, doesn't make you Captain level " Hisagi stated.
" A man like you lacks the honor and skill of a Captain, you think you can beat all of us combined with powers you don't really have ? " Nanao asked.
" It doesn't matter, you guys are merely kids, you can never beat a man of my power and experience " Kumoi answered.
" You can't be serious, it's time we bring an end to your arrogance " Ibiki replied as she gets back up and goes to fight with the other Vice Captains in Karakura Town.
Meanwhile at the Rungokai sewers
Izuru is on the ground in the middle of the sewers as he struggles to get back up from the blow inflicted onto his shoulder, suffering a deep cut.
" Damn it, why won't you die already ? " Kifune shouted as he catches his Shikai again.
" Damn, that last hit got me good. He nearly severed my right arm from my right shoulder in that blow. The difference in strength between me and him in strength is amazing thanks to his Bakkōtō " Izuru said to himself.
" Now time to stop toying around with you and kill you with everything i got " Kifune shouted as he throws his spinning blade at 4 times the speed of sound but Izuru barely dodges the attack and gets pushed back 20 feet from the force of the fissure as the slash wave cuts a 2 foot wide, 5 foot deep and 200 foot fissure. Izuru is grazed from the blow which produced the force of 4.6 tons of TNT.
" Damn , it grazed my knee from the force of the blow ! " Izuru said to himself as he holds onto his knee.
" How sickening, why do you think you can win with that pitiful level of power ? " Makoto asked.
" You seem to have the idea that strength alone makes you strong. You're wrong, even if you kill me , you'll never be accepted as a Vice Captain or a Captain of the Gotei 13 . If anything you'll never be considered strong because you use a power that isn't really your own " Izuru explained to Makoto.
" Who gives a damn if i'm accepted or not, with theses Bakkōtōs would change the world and Kumoi would not only usper the Kasumiōji clan but to help create a world that only the strong survive and the weak perish. With this Bakkōtō alone, i can solo the entire Gotei 13 " Kifune arrogantly gloated as he throws his Bakkōtō enhanced Shikai.
" Solo the Gotei 13 ? Don't be so foolish ! " Izuru replied as he uses both hands on his Shikai to smash down the Bakkōtō weapon to the ground.
" What the hell ? How ere you able to hit down my weapon ? " Kifune shouted.
" I won't let you , i've already told you that your power isn't good enough. You gain your power by slicing down the weak and look down on the people inferior to your power" Izuru said to Kifune.
" So what ? " Makoto asked.
" The most important thing to a Shinigami isn't power, it's the bond between him and his Zanpakutō and the bond between him and his squad and the Soul Society he protects " Izuru explained to Makoto as he glows with a light purple Reiastu.
" What utter nonsense ! " Makoto replied as he throws his Bakkōtō enhanced Shikai towards Izuru but Izuru dodges it with Shunpo and appears behind Izuru . Makoto flips it over and guides it towards Izuru but Izuru reacts and uses Shunpo again to come closer to Makoto.
" That Bakkōtō only increases the speed of your weapon and the power of that weapon, as long as i can see your movements before you can throw it, i can react to it even if i'm not that fast " Izuru said to Makoto as Makoto barely dodges the slash towards his neck.
" Damn it, that was too close ! " Makoto said to himself as he goes to strike Izuru only to see the Vice Captain dodge his attack and appear behind him.
" Too slow ! " Izuru shouted as he kicks Makoto into a wall.
" What's going on ? How is he beating me ? " Makoto said to himself as he gets back up.
" If you're wondering why that weapon is not helping you, it's because you lack the resolve i have for the Gotei 13 and you treat that Zanpakutō of yours as a mere weapon while using borrowed power in the process, with that power, you'll never defeat me " Izuru explained to Makoto.
" Don't give me that shit , a foolish thing like that can't overpower my true strength " Makoto shouted as he throws his Bakkōtō again at Izuru.
" Hadō # 41. Haromoeru(ハロ燃える Burning Halo) " Izuru chanted as his Kidō hits the Shikai bacK but Makoto catches it.
" You think that's enough to beat me ? " Makoto shouted as he sees Izuru above him.
" I got you now " Izuru shouted as he smashes down on the weapon with all his strength.
" Ha, that power isn't going to be nearly enough ! " Makoto shouted as he puts more pressure on Izuru's blade.
" I told you power alone isn't nearly enough! " Izuru replied only for his Shikai to shatter.
" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So much for that , i've just proven to you that power does matter " Makoto arrogantly laughed only to see the Shikai blades floating.
" Kōkaisuru (後悔するRepent ) " Izuru chanted as all his blades hit Makoto's Shikai at once and causes Makoto's Shikai to cave in 10 feet into the ground as well as Makoto creating 6. 1 tons of TNT in striking force.
" What the hell ? " Makoto shouted as he's on the ground within a 10 foot deep and wide crater.
" I must thank my battle with that overweight human back in Konoha, had not for his tough battle , i would've of learned that trick you just saw " Izuru said to Makoto.
" How did you weigh me down ? " Makoto asked.
" Remember that Kidō that i used ? I burned away a good chunk of the Bakkōtō from your Shikai's surface and then went to hit your Shikai 4 times before scattering my Shikai into 10 pieces with my Reiatsu. Your Shikai weighs 192 .83 lbs, i hit your Shikai 14 times, your Shikai now weighs 6,318.66 tons, far too heavy for you to move it anymore " Izuru explained to Makoto as he struggles to move his Shikai.
" Damn you , how can i lose to an insect like you ? You're weaker than me " Makoto shouted.
" It's true that your Reppu's striking strength is stronger than my Wasibuke but strength isn't everything. Zankensokui, only when your heart is in balance can you claim to have true strength " Izuru explained to Makoto.
" I can't lose to you ! " Makoto shouted as he struggles to get back up with his Bakkōtō but he starts to violently expand.
" Looks like you reached your limit , don't try to make this worse for yourself !" Izuru said to Makoto.
" You've yet to beat me , i'm the strongest ! " Makoto shouted as he dashes towards Izuru with his Shikai for one last attack.
" Bachitsu (撥つ The Repellent One ) " Izuru chanted as he blocks Makoto's attack and then swings his sword cleaving Makoto cleanly in half with a horizontal slash as well as it's weapon.
" How , how can i fall to an insect ? I'm the strongest " Kifune shouted as his body is consumed by the Bakkōtō and he dies.
" Strongest you say ? Not even close, you've lost your strength a very long time ago " Izuru replied as his Shikai reverts to his sealed sword and he passes out.
Meanwhile at Rukongai # 45's landfill
Meanwhile Jinpachi Ibara fights Rangiku Matsumoto of Squad 10. The battleaxe Hakaiha ( 破壊刃 Destruction Blade ) is overpowering Rangiku's Haineko . Rangiku's right arm is slightly burnt from a recent attack.
" Damn it, his attacks are too strong ! " Rangiku said to herself as she struggles to get back up.
" Looks like your out of gas, time to finish you off ! " Jinpachi shouted as he swings his axe towards Rangiku.
" Haineko Katamari ( 灰猫塊 Ash Cat Clump ) " Rangiku chanted as she reforges her Shikai into her base Katana but has ash flowing around her blade with the blade glowing white.
" What the hell ? " Jinpachi shouted shocked to see Rangiku block the hit.
" This technique increases my cutting power in exchange for range and versatility of my base Shikai from. You won't be able to cut me so easily this time around " Rangiku explained to Jinpachi.
" I don't know how you managed to block my axe without it exploding but it won't happen again " Jinpachi stated as he comes at Rangiku and goes to clash with Ranigku.
Rangiku goes for a sweeping slash but Jinpachi jumps over the slash , Rangiku ties to slash the Bakkōtō user but he sidesteps the slash . Jinpachi uses a right slash on Rangiku and almost hits her face. Rangiku counters and uses Shunpo to do a flying slash which cracks the ground. Jinpachi goes for another slash but Rangiku uses Shunpo to dodge an explosive slash .
" Growl Haineko Bakufū (灰猫爆風 Haineko Blast) " Rangiku chants as she shoots a ball of ash from her sword moving at high speeds .
" Not good enough ! " Jinpachi countered as he swings his axe creating an explosive slash which cancels out the attack.
" What force, is he getting stronger ? " Rangiku asked herself as she sees him get more muscular .
" Take this ! " Jinpachi shouted as he goes for a right horizontal slash but Rangiku barely dodges the hit as the shockwave generated from the sword slash knocks her sword out of her hands .
" Shit ! " Rangiku replied as Jinpachi goes to stab Rangiku in the heart but Rangiku counters it .
" Hadō # 4 . Byakurai (白雷, White Lightning) " Rangiku chanted as she fires a concentrated, powerful lightning bolt from her finger knocking back Jinpachi .
" Not bad ! " Jinpachi said to Rangiku as he sees Rangiku worn out.
" Damn, i'm almost at my limit ! " Rangiku said to herself as she struggles to catch her breath.
" This is getting tiresome, you should give up and become my slave . It would be ashame if a beautiful woman like you were to die before you served your purpose in life " Jinpachi said to the ginger haired Shinigami.
" My purpose ? " Rangiku asked.
" The purpose of you women is to serve men,once Kumoi is ruling the Soul Society, you'll be back at the kitchen " Jinpachi explained to Rangiku .
" I'll never submit my honor and my pride to your idea of a Soul Society or Kumoi's !" Rangiku replied.
" Then you'll die, there's no escaping this attack ! " Jinpachi shouted as he uses all his energy while swinging his axe and forms a 20 foot diameter wave that extends up to 660 feet eastwards burning through the landfill.
" ARRGH ! " Rangiku shouted as she's engulfed in a massive explosion leveling everything within a 300 foot radius.
" Hahahahaha! Stupid woman, you could never defeat the might Jinpachi ! " Jinpachi arrogantly gloated only to see ash surround him.
" No i got you ! " Rangiku answered as she appears behind the brute.
" Impossible, how did you dodge my attack ? " Jinpachi shouted as he sees Rangiku behind him.
" It's simple . The moment you were about to explode your axe, i used a clone of myself using Haineko " Rangiku answered.
" What did you mean ? " Jinpachi questioned the ginger haired Vice Captain.
" I call it Kaikō Kegawa (開口毛皮Fur shedding ) . When my physical body is threatened with a life threatening strike, i can us Haineko to create a clone of myself to take the hit from me " Rangiku explained to Jinpachi.
" Damn it ! " Jinpachi shouted .
" Time to show you Haineko's true power ! " Rangiku replied as she uses her Haineko to form a claw-like mass of power surrounding her right arm. Rangiku's power increases to the point that a small tornado is generated around her entire body .
" You think you can beat me ? I'm way too powerful for a weak little woman like you to beat me , let me show you my true power " Jinpachi shouted as he gains even larger muscles until his arms grow 3 times his size .
" Haineko : Haizume Hakai (灰爪破壊 Ash Claw Destruction ) " Rangiku chanted as she shoots her Haineko into a massive beam in the form of a giant cat claw towards Jinpachi.
" Unleash Hakaiha ( 破壊刃 Destruction Blade ) " Jinpachi countered as he uses a concentrated 20 foot wave of explosions to create a jet of flames towards Rangiku.
The attacks clash together and causes a massive collision wave within the middle of the landfill.
" Not god enough ! " Rangku shouted as he uses all her power to overpower the jet of flames.
"Shit ! " Jinpachi shouted as he is hit by the blast and then the destructive power explodes creating a massive 300 foot tornado going over 5,000 feet high and creating a massive tornado then the tornado explodes leveling everything within a 600 foot radius.
" That took care of him ! " Rangiku said to herself as she barely moves and falls to the ground.
Meanwhile at West Rukongai District # 45
Hitsugaya struggles to fight against former Vice Captain Eisen Glor, the former Vice Captain of Squad 10 310 years ago until his defection from the Gotei 13 in support of the rebellion against the Soul King. Now Hitsugaya is forced to fight the former Vice Captain using a Bakkōtō to put himself on the level of a Captain and posing a threat to the Rukongai civilians . People are running away as everything within a 100 foot radius of Eisen's Sorakari Yoroi is being sucked into his armor and being smashed by the dense wind armor. Hitsugaya is struggling against him.
" What destructive force ! " Hitsugaya said to himself.
" What's wrong kid ? You don't have the power to break my armor ? Or maybe you do but you lack the control to do so ? " Eisen asked as he sees Hitsugaya try to go for another attack.
" Hyōryū Senbi (氷竜旋尾, Ice Dragon Swirling Tail) " Hitsugaya shouted as he swings his sword in a linear direction and creates overflowing ice from his blade in the form of a crescent wave at Eisen but the blast is easily negated by Eisen's wind .
" That's not going to work ! " Eisen shouted only to see Hitsugaya come at him with another attack.
" Kōridama Keimusho( 氷球刑務所Ice Sphere Prison)" Hitsugaya shouts as he turns all the water he absorbed and all the water from his Hyōryū Senbi into a massive ice orb.
" Mikadzuki Fūryoku (三日月風力 Crescent Wind ) " Eisen countered as he swings his scythe and cuts the orb surrounding him with a single slash .
" Damn it ! " Hitsugaya shouted as his attack failed.
" You lose kid, time to kill some people here . Arashi Hosodan ( 嵐細断Storm Shred ) " Eisen countered as he fires a barrages of wind blades at the buildings of the Rukongai swinging his scythe around with the speed of an automatic firearm.
" Kōriōga Sōkō ( 氷王が装甲Armor of the Ice King ) " Hitsugaya chanted as his ice skin shatters protecting the buildings and the Rukongai civilians from the attacks while he takes minor damage.
" You shielded yourself with ice ? Not bad kid but not good enough ! " Eisen said to Hitsugaya as he goes for another attack.
" Damn it, i barely withstood that attack ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he tries to stand up.
" Sora Kyojin Hikisa ( 空巨人引裂 Tearing Sky Giant ) " Eisen chanted as he swings his scythe in a circular motion to create a swirling circular vortex of wind.
" Sennen Hyōrō (千年氷牢, Thousand Years' Ice Prison) " Hitsugaya countered as he blocks the blast with the ice pillars block the blast and negate of the blast however the blast still knocks Hitsugaya back 300 feet away and hits the ground.
" Hahahaaha ! Looks like you're still green kid. You can't possibly beat me with weak attacks like that and that level of defense of yours is nothing compared to the cutting power of my wind or the massive power of my wind armor , you have nothing to beat me " Eisen laughed as he stand there laughing at Histugaya.
" There has to be a way around his defense, if i can get past it, i can take him down " Hitsugaya said to himself as he stands there with a massive aura of ice forming around him which causes Eisen's barrier to briefly distort a bit.
" What is he up to ? " Eisen said to himself.
" I get it now , that's how i'll beat him ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he goes to fight Eisen.
" Came back for another ass kicking ? " Eisen laughed as he goes for his attack.
" It's time i stop holding back on you. Tensō Jūrin (天相従臨, Subjugation Of The Heavens) " Hitsugaya chanted as the area around them starts to freeze up as Hitsugaya causes a swirling cloud where all the rain starts to focus and shift wind directions forming an hurricane like storm around the area.
" You fool, you can't control that power, if you use it ,you'll end up destroying this small village, even if you come at me with your strongest attack, it can't shatter my wind armor " Eisen explained to Hitsugaya only to start noticing his wind armor is starting to weaken.
" You think that was my plan ? " Hitsugaya asked Eisen as he starts sucking up wind from the armor.
" Impossible, my Sorakari Yoroi is being negated but how ? " Eisen shouted.
" I figured out how your little Wind Armor works. Your armor uses superheated air around you to create a vertical updraft and that's what generates the strength of your barrier. By using Tensō Jūrin, i countered it by cooling down the air pressure within your win armor and then using my Reiatsu to create an even lower pressure system to disable your wind armor " Hitsugaya explained to Eisen.
" Impossible, how can Reiatsu of this level exist ? " Eisen asked Hitsugaya as his wind armor is gone and Hitsugaya's Tensō Jūrin is now condensed around his body.
" The power Hyōrinmaru expels is so overwhelming that in Soul Society, its mere release affects the weather within the immediate vicinity. Tensō Jūrin (天相従臨, Subjugation of the Heavens) is one of Hyōrinmaru's basic powers, as well as its strongest. It allows me to control the weather in the immediate vicinity, or more specifically, the water in the surrounding atmosphere " Hitsugaya explained to Eisen as Eisen gets pissed and goes for his strongest attack.
" You little brat, it's time i put you down . I'm a true Shinigami , the true death god, once i kill you, i'll kill the rest of the fake Shinigami within the Gotei 13 " Eisen shouted as he puts his scythe in front of him and levitates it as he spins it with his wind magic while his hands move freely.
" You're no real Shinigami, Shinigami protect the lives of the innocent , they don't cowardly attack the weak " Hitsugaya replied.
" Let's see how well you protect the people within the Rukongai kid, Kokushibyō Tatsumaki ( 黒死病竜巻。Black Death Tornado. ) " Eisen shouted as he fires a massive blast towards Hitsugaya by placing his two index and middle fingers in an X-shape in front of him.
" Hiryūhō (氷竜砲Ice Dragon Cannon ) " Hitsugaya chanted as he uses both hands on his sword to shoot a dense beam of blue energy traveling to meet the wind blast,.
" Ha, you have limits kid, i can keep this all day ! " Eisen shouted as his Bakkōtō engulfs his arms and enhances more of his power.
" Damn it, he's getting stronger ! " Hitsugaya said to himself as he gets pushed back.
" Now i got you this time kid, time to die ! " Eisen shouted as his blast gets closer towards Hitsugaya.
" Allow me to lend you my power master ! " Hyōrinmaru said to Hitsugaya.
" What power ? " Hitsugaya asked.
" The power of a Dragon ! " Hyōrinmaru answered as Hitsugaya's body glows with an immense aura that takes the form of a giant dragon.
" What the hell ? " Eisen shouted as his attack is stopped by the aura.
" Is this the same level of power as Hyōten Hyakkasō condensed ? " Hitsugaya asked .
" Yes, this is a temporarily boost in power , to master this form, you must train more " Hyōrinmaru answered.
" How was my strongest attack stopped ? What is this kid ? " Eisen shouted as he sees Hitsugaya dash towards him.
" Super Ryusenka " Hitsugaya shouted as he dashes at Eisen with the aura of a gigantic, icy blue, serpentine dragon with large wings.
" Shit ! Sorakari Yoroi ( 空刈鎧 Sky Reaping Armor ) " Eisen chanted as he now has a wave of wind condensed around his body but Hitsugaya goes through the barrier and stabs through Eisen moving at 46,933 ft/sec (32,000 MPH ) , Eisen is then covered with ice.
" Your ideal of a Shinigami is long past it's date and should be buried with history " Hitsugaya said to Eisen.
" Damn it ! " Eisen shouted as his Bakkōtō takes over his weakened body and then explodes his body.
" You talk about me not controlling my power yet you never had control of the power you gained " Hitsugaya said to himself as he reverts back to normal.
Back at the Kasumiōji Clan Hideout
Soifon and Hanza continue to fight each other. Soifon is trapped within the realm of Saiga where she's pitted against her worst nightmares . Soifon is pitted up against her hatred of Kisuke and her fear of Yoruichi's betrayal.
" RWAARGH ! " Hollow Yoruichi roared as she kicks Soifon in the stomach .
" ARRGH ! " Soifon shouted as she coughs up blood.
" HAHAHAHAHAHA ! " fake Kisuke laughed.
" Damn it, there too strong ! " Soifon shouted as she gets slammed into a large rock.
" What's wrong my honey ? You're looking pretty banged up " fake Kisuke said to Soifon as she's grabbed from behind by Yoruichi.
" What are you doing ? " Soifon shouted.
" Relax Soifon, soon your mind would be liberated and you'll become like me " fake Yoruichi stated as she holds her arms.
" Now Soifon, you'll become just like the rest of my experiments " fake Kisuke stated as he comes at Soifon with white go on his sealed sword.
" What is that ? " Soifon asked.
" It's a Hollowfication agent i made to create the Vizards, soon you'll be a monster like them " fake Kisuke explained to Soifon as he walks towards the 2nd division Captain.
Meanwhile outside the Saiga illusion realm, Hanza watches Soifon about to be tortured.
" Yes, let your worse nightmares consume you, there's still much more to come captain Soifon. This nightmare would continue until your soul is shattered " Hanza said to himself only to see the orb starting to crack.
Meanwhile in Sagia's realm, Soifon gets back up with a white aura around her.
" You blew it, i may hate Kisuke but the one thing that he's not is a criminal who would hurt innocent people , as much as i hate at to admit it but Kisuke is a much kinder person than myself. A s for Yoruichi , she'll never betrayal me, me and her have a bond which a monster like you would never understand our bond " Soifon explained to Hanza as she he hugs Kisuke and the fake Kisuke starts to shatter.
" So you mean that we're friends ? " Fake Kisuke asked as his body starts to shatter as well as the realm of Sagia.
" Good Soifon, you've finally have matured ! " Fake Yoruichi said to Soifon as she kisses Soifon and then the realm collapses and the mirrors around Soifon shatter.
" Impossible she shattered my Sagia with sheer willpower ! " Hanza said to himself as he sees Soifon standing amidst the smoke of his shattered Saiga.
" I must admit, you're ability to use peoples nightmares against them is quite a deadly power , however i've outgrown those fears a while ago. Had you got me with that attack over a few months ago, i've would've been finished however i've managed to change my views of Kisuke and Yoruichi and i've long reconciled with those feelings " Soifon explained to Hanza.
" Damn you captains, damn you all to hell ! " Hanza shouted as he holds up his Bakkōtō and then increases his power and dashes towards Soifon with his sword but Soifon blocks the blade with her gauntlet and pushes her back 20 feet.
" You guys think you can overthrow the Gotei 13 ? We'e fought the likes of you for generations, you're coup de dat would never work " Soifon replied as they both fly up the hole created by Hitsugaya and Eisen and then clash in the air with their attacks.
Soifon and Hanza clash attacks with Hanza coming at Soifon with his slashes but Soifon manages to block the blows . Soifon kicks Hanza in the chest and pushes him back 200 feet but the kick barely fazes him in terms of damage. Hanza and Soifon clash attacks with each other. Hanza comes at Soifon with his blade but Soifon dodged the strike. Hanza comes at her with a rising slash but Soifon dodges the strike . Hanza throws a series of 30 fast slashes in 5 seconds but Soifon manages to dodge them.
" You wretch i'll crush you ! " Hanza shouted as he goes to slash Soifon.
" Kyōkonaishi ( 強固な意志 Iron Will )" Soifon countered as she stands there as she hardens her body using white Reiatsu and takes the hit with the blade stops at her chest without cutting her and she grabs the sword after a few seconds.
" What ? " Hanza shouted shocked to see Soifon block his hit.
" Suzumebachi Gunodori ( 雀蜂群踊りHornet Swarm Dance ) " Soifon chanted as she does 36 stabs per second across Hanza's entire body for 10 seconds hitting all the 360 vital points.
" What the hell ? " Hanza asked as his entire body is covered with Hōmonkas.
" It's my ultimate fighting style that i was saving for a certain person . I struck each of your 361 pressure points once with my Suzumebachi. You're finished " Soifon explained to Hanza as his entire body glows red.
" How did you block my hit ? " Hanza asked as his body starts to dissolve.
" Kyōkonaishi ( 強固な意志 Iron Will ) vibrates my body at supersonic speeds using Reiastu and that condenses my bodies muscles to the level of iron, in order to nullify damage taken from attack, it decreases my speed for a short while in exchange for a tougher body. The level of my durability increases by 4 times but decreases my speed by that same amount " Soifon explained to Hanza as he struggles to resist the power of Nigeki Kessatsu.
" Damn it, i can't die here ! " Hanza shouted as he starts to lose control of his Bakkōtō.
" It's too late for you, Nigeki Kessatsu not only does it rather deep wound, the attack leaves a butterfly-shaped stamp on the victims body. Spreading from the center of the wound, known as Hōmonka . If i hit you the same place twice, you will die instantly. I hit each vital point of your body twice and now you'll die " Soifon explained to Hanza.
" I can't die now, i can't die ! I CAN'T DIE ! " Hanza shouted as he releases a massive wave of Reiatsu that cancels out the Hōmonkas.
" Impossible he's managed to use the power of the Bakkōtō to cancel out my Nigeki Kessatsu " Soifon said to herself as she sees Hanza worn out severely with his Bakkōtō replacing his armor .
" As long as i have this Bakkōtō and as long as i feel it my Reiastu, i'll never die " Hanza explained to Soifon as he struggles to breathe with sweat running down his head.
" So you're allowing the Bakkōtō to devour your body just to cancel out my Nigeki Kessatsu ? You realize you'll end up killing yourself exerting the limits of your body " Soifon stated.
" I don't care, you think this is enough to take me over. I won't be so easily taken over " Hanza replied.
" Why would you foolishly risk your life-like this ? " Soifon asked.
" For the Kasumiōji clan ! " Hanza answered.
" Aren't you trying to usper the clan ? " Soifon asked.
" No, I'm merely taking it back from the bratty little princess. Master Kumoi should be the real ruler to the clan, not some dumb little bitch or a woman " Hanza shouted as he attacks Soifon with his increased power as he pushes her into the Rukongai not far from Hitsugaya and Rangiku's location.
Meanwhile at the landfill, Rangiku and Hitsugaya meet up with each other. Hitsugaya wakes up Rangiku from her sleep and Rangiku gets up dusting off her clothes.
" Rangiku wake up ! " Hitsugaya said to Rangiku as she gets back up.
" Ah shit, i passed out in the middle of the landfill . Great, now i'll need a shower to get this horrible stench off my clothes " Rangiku said to Hitsugaya.
" It seems like you defeated your foe ! " Hitsugaya said to his Vice Captain.
" How did your battle go captain ? " Rangiku asked Hitsugaya.
" He's dead ! " Hitsugaya replied only to sense an massive amount of Reiatsu from Hanza's direction.
Meanwhile Soifon manages to get back up after being violently slammed into the Runokgai.
" That was a rough landing ! " Soifon said to herself only to see Hanza's sword grow 4 times larger.
" Time to die ! " Hanza shouted as he fires a massive blasts 20 feet wide towards Soifon from 300 feet in the air.
Meanwhile Rangiku and Hitsugaya see the blast heading towards to town .
" The blast is going to level that village ! " Rangiku shouted.
" Don't worry, Soifon isn't going to let that happen, after all she's a Captain " Hitsugaya replied as they see the blast disappear.
" Shunkō ( 瞬閧, Flash Cry ) " Soifon chanted as he manages to block the full blast bare handed as her captain's robe is shredded by the force of the Reiatsu as her body is surrounded with a massive white Reiatsu. Soifon flies up to meet Hanza face to face.
" That's your true power ? Very interesting.. now i'm going to take you down " Hanza asked Soifon as he dashes towards her with purple Reiatsu around his body.
" Is that the best you got ? " Soifon asked Hanza as she use Shunpo to disappear from his sight.
" Crap,she's so fast! " Hanza said to himself as he can't see Soifon's movements at all . Soifon hits Hanza in the stomach with as powerful strike. Soifon then moves as Hanza and lands 50 punches on him in 3 seconds causing him to stagger back.
" You're mine ! " Soifon shouted as she leaps in the air and goes a powerful strike knocking back Hanza.
" Damn it, she's too fast for me. If i can't beat her with speed, i just have to use all of my power then " Hanza said to himself as he glows with Reiatsu and goes to swing his sword.
" You think you can hit me with a slow hit like that ? " Soifon shouted as she dodges the slash only to see a trail of mirror dust left behind the slash and she's blinded by a flash of light.
" Ha, did you forget about my Saiga's power already ? By converting all my Reiastu, i can leave millions of miniature mirror fragments which would reflect light and blind my foe regardless of how fast they are. You might be fast Captain Soifon but even you can't outrun the speed of light " Hanza explained to Soifon as Soifon struggles to see.
" Damn it, what a cowardly trick ! " Soifon shouted.
" You should know better than to call tricks cowardly, it's all about the results that matter " Hanza replied as he goes for his next attack.
" Shit, he got me good with that last attack , i need to focus " Soifon said to herself as Hanza comes at her with a powerful stab.
" Now die ! " Hanza shouted as he comes at Soifon and stabs her through the chest with his enlarged sword.
" ARRGH ! " Soifon shouted as the blade goes through her chest.
" Hahahaha !Looks like you're dead ! " Hanza arrogantly laughed.
" ..Haaahaa ! " Soifon laughed as it's revealed to be a clone and Hanza was hit from the front and back by Soifon's Suzumebachi with the aura of bee wings made of golden Reiatsu with an golden aura shaped like a bee with her right arm covered in Reiatsu.
" What ? " Hanza shouted as a blue Hōmonka on his chest and he coughs up blood .
" You're finished, i hit you with my Suzumebachi:Ōhihachi Sashikizu ( 瞬閧雀蜂,,王妃蜂刺し傷 Flash Cry Hornet, Queen Bee Sting ) . This attack moves at 600,000 ft /sec (409,000 MPH ) or 533 times the speed of sound. Using that speed i hit you with Suzumebachi in the back and front of your heart in 1/5000th of a second " Soifon explained to Hanza as she watches Hanza's Bakkōtō consume him.
" No , NOOO! NOOOOOOO ! ARRRGH ! " Hanza screamed in agony as he expands and grows larger and more bloated before he explodes from his Bakkōtō being over loaded with power.
" You stupid fool, you should've dropped dead and not try to force yourself alive with Reiatsu, your body can only endure so much " Soifon said to herself as she deactivates her Shunkō and then lands at the landfill worn out.
" Looks like you had a hard time as well ! " Hitsugaya said to Soifon.
" Same here, you're also out of Reiatsu ! " Soifon replied.
" Those Bakkōtō users were a real problem ! " Rangiku stated.
" Indeed, they were each much stronger than we thought " Hitsugaya replied.
Meanwhile 200 meters from the Kurosaki Clinic
The Vice Captains each struggle to fight against Kumoi using his powerful Bakkōtō which is using a Hōgyoku copy to stabilize his Bakkōtō from absorbing his own life force and to compensate for the lack of Reiryoku he has to fight the Shinigami .
" Roar Zabimaru " Renji chanted as he charges his Bankai towards Kumoi.
" Ha, childs play ! " Kumoi shouted as he uses his tentacles to smash the Bankai and desegments the weapon.
" Hadō #58. Tenran (闐嵐, Orchid Sky) " Momo chanted as she shoots a tornado blast towards Kumoi but Kumoi withstand the blast without flinching.
" That's not nearly enough to tickle me !" Kumoi shouted as he smacks Momo with a tentacle, hitting her into a streetlamp.
" Damn it ! " Momo shouted as she struggles to get back up.
" Die ! " Kumoi shouted as he fires a Cero towards Momo.
" Kamitate (紙盾 Paper Shield ) " Nanao chanted as she uses a massive shield made of paper to absorb the Cero stopping the wave in it's tracks.
" What ? " Kumoi asked shocked to see his attack stopped by Nanao.
" Sōkatsui (蒼火墜, Blue Fireball) " Iba chanted as he shoots a blue fireball hitting Kumoi in the face blinding him.
" Damn you brats ! " Kumoi shouted as he fires to recover from his blind eye sight.
" You might be able to fight with Shinigami but you lack the skill to truly fight with us " Ibiki explained to Kumoi.
" Who needs skill when you have this much power ? " Kumoi replied as he pounds the ground creating a shockwave which blows away everyone and knocks them all down.
" He's too powerful ! " Iba said to the team.
" Agreed, he might have no skill but he's still very powerful with his Bakkōtō " Renji stated.
" We got to bring him down together with a strong enough attack " Rukia stated.
" But how are we going to do this ? " Reni asked the group.
" We'll just have to hit him with everything we got until we overwhelm and shatter his Hōgyoku " Ibiki said to the group.
" It's time i put an end to you brats " Kumoi shouted as all his 8 tentacles on his armor grow spikes and he comes at all of them but they all dodge the attack.
" Kamiyari ( 紙の槍 Paper Spear ) " Nanao chanted as she throws a spear made of paper to go through the tentacles and hit Kumoi in chest but the Bakkōtō armor protect Kumoi from the hit.
" Do you think that's enough to stop me ? " Kumoi laughed only to see the paper spear break apart.
" Kaminoki (紙の木Paper Tree) " Nanao chanted as she forms a 100 foot high tree made entirely of paper which lacerates into the armor and holding Kumoi into place.
" Damn these kids ! " Kumoi shouted as he struggles to move with his armor pinned down.
" Nenshōen ( 燃焼円 Combustion Circle ) " Iba shouted as he stabs his Zanpakutō into the ground that then goes towards the Bakkōtō wielder and forms a pentrgarm around him and shoots a large blast of red energy from the ground shooting 500 feet high and 50 feet in diameter which burns Kumoi's armor.
" Damn these kids ! They're really annoying me ! " Kumoi shouted as he uses the Reiatsu of the Hōgyoku to cancel out the blast.
" Hikōtsu Taihō (狒骨大砲, Baboon Bone Cannon) " Renji chanted as Hihiō Zabimaru fires a blast towards Kumoi.
" HAHA ! Not good enough ! " Kumoi replied as he uses two tentacles to block the blast from hitting him.
" Shoot forth, Yaku Momonoki (焼く桃木 Burning Peach Tree) " Momo chanted as she hits her Zanpakutō into the ground and then a massive column of pink fire 20 feet in diameter appears over Kumoi that branches like a tree and grows up to 200 feet high.
" This isn't enough to slow me down ! " Kumoi shouted as he goes to attack Momo through the flames with his tentacles.
" Momo watch out ! " Renji shouted as the tentacles move too fast for Momo to dodge .
" Reap Kazeshini (風死, Wind Death)" Hisagi chanted as he swings his Shikai which rips through the tentacles saving Momo from being skewered . Hisagi then wraps his Shikai around Kumoi's body and holds him while Kumoi is still engulfed in the flames protected by his Bakkōtō.
" Nice going Hisagi, hold him in place ! " Renji shouted.
" Musei Kiringuhari (無声キリング針Silent Killing Needles ) " Ibiki chanted as her sword transforms back into a fan and shoots 100 needles at Kumoi, all of them hitting his back.
" What the hell ? " Kumoi asked as he struggles to stand.
" I hit you with each of those needles, those are meant to stun rather than kill by hitting the pressure points in your body . It's time i end this " Ibiki explained to Kumoi
" Now everyone, we need to combine attacks " Nanao shouted.
" Right ! Bankai : Shirayuki Shiro Tsukihime( 白雪,姫白月 White Snow, White Moon Princess ) " Rukia chanted as she releases her Bankai .
" Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the abyss of conflagration, cleanse thay evil that stands in the way "Momo chanted as she forms a fireball in both hands .
"Cherry blossoms float on the wind as the warrior travels. With this spell may the cherry blossoms find new lands to float over " Iba chanted as he forms a wind ball in hands holding his hands up high.
" Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south! A drum roll sounds, the wind that ignites the embers blow. Spinning wheel, orchard sky, dancing daggers! Fluttering wings, bloody sacrifice! Unify and converge brightly when fired ! " Nanao chanted as a red orb of energy is being formed from two hands forward .
" Muonautā Fūsokuyari Danmaku (無音アウター風速やり弾幕 Silent Kill Wind Spears Barrage) " Ibiki chanted as she generates a continuous barrage nearly invisible wind spears.
" Sannichi Ōgama Kazeshini (三日剴風死鎌 Crescent Scythe Wind Death) " Hisagi chanted as he spins both his Kusarigamas until they generate rotating wind around the edges with a green aura. Hisagi forms an eerie green skull aura around him as he shreds deep into the Bakkōtō armor within Kumoi while Hisagi gets his distance from the attacks.
" Hadō # 71. Sōren Shakkahō (双蓮赤火砲, Twin Shots of Red Fire) " Nanao chanted as she fires a massive red blast of energy at Kumoi.
" Hadō #58 . Tenran (闐嵐, Orchid Sky) " Iba chanted as he fires a massive wind blast .
" Hadō # 86. Gōkaryūkajikanon ( 業火龍の火事のカノン。 Hellfire Dragon Blaze Canon) " Momo chanted as she fires a massive fire blast from her hands which forms into a massive 30 foot flaming Chinese dragon.
" Tsugi no mai, Hakuren " Rukia chanted as she fires a massive ice wave towards Kumoi.
" Hikōtsu Taihō (狒骨大砲, Baboon Bone Cannon) " Renji chanted as Hihiō Zabimaru fires a blast towards Kumoi.
" You can't hope to beat me with your weak attacks, i'm unstoppable with the power of the Hōgyoku " Kumoi laughed only to notice the orb of the Hōgyoku is starting to crack.
" It's cracking ! " Iba shouted.,
" Keep it up ! " Ibiki shouted as she pours more Reiastu into the attack.
" What's going on , why's my Hōgyoku cracking ? No, it can't be ! " Kumoi shouted.
" We might not be as strong as Captains but with the combined power of 5 Vice Captains and 2 Bankai wielding Vice Captains, we have enough power to crack your fake Hōgyoku " Rukia explained to Kumoi as all the attacks stop as all the Vice Captains are out of Reiatsu.
" Damn it, we didn't destroy it ! " Iba shouted as he reverts to his sealed sword form and is on his knees from exhaustion.
" We used too much power against the other Bakkōtō weidlers " Renji stated as he reverts to his sealed sword form.
" Damn it, we're so close ! " Rukia shouted as she also reverts back from her Bankai.
" We're at our limit ! " Nanao replied as she reverts back to normal.
" Crap ! " Hisagi shouted as he reverts back to his abuse state.
" We almost had him ! " Momo yelled as she reverts back to normal.
" HAHAHAHAHAHA! Tough luck kids, you almost had me but it seems that the problem is that you had nowhere near the power to kill me " Kumoi laughed as he arrogantly stands over the fallen Vice Captains.
" Damn it ! " Rukia shouted..
" Now to end this ! Uh wait, where's the second division Vice Captain ? " Kumoi asked as he looks around only to see Ibiki above him with her sealed sword coming towards him.
" Gotcha ! " Ibiki shouted as she stabs her sealed sword into the crack of the fake Hōgyoku at the center of Kumoi's Bakkōtō armor.
" Hahahahah! Do you think stabbing your sealed sword into my Hōgyoku is enough to shatter it ? Even with a crack in it, there's no way you can break it with a sealed sword " Kumoi arrogantly laughed.
" I don't intend Whisper Shizuka Kazeshibō (静かSilent Wind Death ) " Chokorēto chanted as she goes back to use her Shikai which is embedded within Kumoi's Hōgyoku copy.
" Museifūha(無声風刃 Silent Wind Blade ) " Ibiki chanted as she generates wind around her blade and her blade glows blueish white and pours all her Reiatsu into her blade.
" Damn you ! " Kumoi shouted as the cracks grow on the Hōgyoku and then the Hōgyoku shatters to bits.
" Impossible ! How did it crack so easily ? " Kumoi shouted shocked to see his Hōgyoku easily broken.
" You're fake Hōgyoku doesn't even compare to the real deal and you're power is nothing if you don't have the skill and will to die fighting " Ibiki explained to Kumoi as she cuts down Kumoi with a slash down from his chest to his hip nearly splitting Kumoi in half.
" Damn it ! " Kumoi shouted as he falls to the ground with his Bakkōtō rapidly taking over his body.
" You're idea of a new world was flawed, to think you can revert thing back to your primitive, sexist and bigoted world , that's not how the Gotei 13 worlds. We move forward and fight for the future and to protect all people in this world " Ibiki said to Kumoi as she watches him get consumed and killed by his Bakkōtō.
Back at the Soul Society
Yoruichi and Amagai continue to fight each other with Yoruichi dodging his attacks. Amagai senses Kumoi's lifeforce gone from the plane of existence.
" Looks like the old man has kicked the bucket ! " Amgai laughed as his Bakkōtō glows with green energy around his body as Reishi flows around his body.
" You seem to be happy about that ! " Yoruichi said to Amagai.
" Of course i am, not only is that sexist ,racist parasite dead and that's only last filthy nobleman left in this world but his Bakkōtō is gone as well " Amagai stated with a grin.
" So what ? You think that changes anything ? Even without my Zanpakutō, you've yet to lay a starch on me " Yoruichi explained to Amagai .
" That's about to change Yoruichi of the Flash. As you're noting my power is increasing, i've designed my Bakkōtō with a custom ability to take any Reiastu stolen from other Bakkōtōs to make my Bakkōtō stronger, with all the Bakkōtō welders dead , i've absorbed the power of 20 Vice Captains thanks to the special Bakkōtōs Kumoi have given his élite men, including the Captain level Bakkōtō he had powered by the Hōgyoku fake he got from Aizen, the Bakkōtōs of Hanza and Eisen and the Bakkōtōs from Makoto and Jinpachi. All that combined will increase my power beyond your power " Amagai shouted as he glows with green Reiastu as he goes through a transformation.
Meanwhile Yamamoto and Sasakibe are watching the battle with Yamamoto unable to fight. Amagai's Bakkōtō negated his Reiatsu which not just negated his Zanpakutō but his Shinigami powers temporarily .
" Are you alright Captain Commander ? " Sasakibe asked .
" I'm fine Sasakibe ! " Yamamoto answered.
" Amagai, his power is increasing even greater. Are you able to fight at this point ? " Sasakibe asked.
" No, my Reiatsu is still sealed ! " Yamamoto answered.
" We have problems, Amagai's Reiatsu jump up to 667,000 RYK . This could be trouble" Sasakibe stated.
" Indeed, this could be a problem , even for Yoruichi ! " Yamamoto replied as they watch the battle.
Back at Sōkyoku Hill, Shūsuke muscles grow twice their size and the armored black gauntlet shaped like a dragon on his right arm covers his entire body . His body is now covered in black armor with a dragon head shaped like a helmet covering his neck and forehead with a dragon tail coming out from the back. Amagai unleashes a fiery Reiatsu over his body which causes the sky to darken around the Sōkyoku hill and causes the ground to shake.
" Yoruichi Shihōin, i'll not be stopped . I'll send you all to hell and conquer and destroy all enemies of the Soul Society " Amagai explained to the captain.
" Are you foolish, if you exert too much Reiastu, the Bakkōtō would eat you up " Yoruichi shouted.
" I don't care, as long as it's enough to crush the Soul Society, i'll gladly give my life away " Amagai shouted as he unleashes a wave of fire towards Yoruichi which she dodges only to see Amagai behind her .
" What the hell ? His speed increased ? " Yoruichi said to herself as she barely blocks Amagai's slash with her sealed Zanpakutō and is pushed back to the edge of the hill.
" Gōen Ryūga: Homura (業炎龍牙 焔, Ultimate Dragon Fang Flame: Blaze)" Amagai chanted as he lifts his sword over his head and covers its entirety in flame and launches a giant fireball at Yoruichi the shape of an eagle which causes an explosion rising up to the stand of Sōkyoku.
Yoruichi is still standing with her blocking the attack , her arms are slightly burned from the attack and her jacket is gone.
" I must admit, had not for shielding myself with my Reiatsu, i would've been a goner. You really have gotten stronger Amagai " Yoruichi said to Shūsuke.
" You're still alive from that ? " Amagai asked.
" You should be aware i'm much stronger than most Captains here , it's as you have become obsessed with the Bakkōtō and have betrayed the Kasumiōji Clan and the Gotei 13 , you've could've been a powerful and valuable member of the Gotei 13 . It's not too late to give up, you can change our destiny " Yoruichi explained to Amagai.
" Me give up, why should i when i have the power to change everything ? I'll use this power of mine to avenge my father and kill the Head Captain for his incompetence and wipe out the whole nobility , including the Kasumiōji Clan . You can't stop me, i've nullified your Zanpakutō and i've only gotten stronger " Amagai explained to Yoruichi as he goes for another attack.
" I see, then there's no point of talking with you is there ? I guess i have to kill you off then " Yoruichi stated.
" Bring it on bitch !" Amagai replied as he shoots another blast of fire from his Bankai but Yoruichi dodges the attack and goes to clash with Amagai
Yoruichi and Amagai engages in a series of sword clashes . Amagai uses a bunch of sword swings to fight off Yoruichi but Yoruichi dodges the attacks and uses a powerful slash to counter each blow. Amagai charges at Yoruichi and they clash attacks with each other, each strike creates 100 foot shockwaves . Yoruichi comes at Amagai with a vertical slash but he blocks the blow pushing her back. Yourichi uses Shunshin goes for a roundhouse kick against Amagai but Amagai grabs her leg and throws her down into the ground and slices her in half .
" Utsusemi (空蝉, Cicada, referencing their molting) " Yoruichi chanted as she appears behind Amagai and goes to stab him with her Zanpakutō moving at 120,000 ft/sec( 81,800 MPH) but Amagai manages to block the hit barely.
" Let's see you withstand this ! " Amagai shouted as he swings his sword 180 degrees creating a massive fiery shockwave engulfing everything within a 2,000 foot semi-circle radius in flames but Yoruichi dodges the attack and jumps to the air .
Yoruichi then dashes at Amagai with a lunging strike but Amagai blocks her attack. Yoruichi does a series of rapid stabs at Amagai n but the rouge Shinigami dodges them by a few inches . Amagai goes for a counter slash but Yoruichi holds back Amagai's flaming slash with her wakizashi shaped Zanpakutō.
" You've really disappointed me Amagai, you could've been a Captain of the Gotei 13 " Yoruichi said to Amagai as she evades a slash from the Bakkōtō beam sword.
" Shut up, i'm through talking ! Raiendan (雷炎弾, Lightning Fireballs) " Amagai chanted as he uses the tip of his sword to launch a multitude of fireballs at Yoruichi but Yoruichi using Shunpo to dodge the attack.
" You'll never catch me with those slow attacks ! " Yoruichi arrogantly taunted only to see a wave of flames around her.
" You left your guard down ! " Amagai laughed as Yoruichi is surrounded by flames.
" You think surrounding me with flames is enough to stop my movement ? Get real " Yoruichi laughed only to see the flames jump up to block her.
" I've trapped you in a flame cage that would burn you if you escape, go ahead and try because i'll finish you off with this one attack " Amagai laughed as he increases his power to attack Yoruichi .
Amagai twirls his sword above his head, making the blade fiery with flames shooting from the pauldron, while lightning builds up around the blade.
" Shit , i can't escape his attack ! " Yoruichi said to herself.
" Gōen Ryūga (業炎龍牙, Ultra Dragon Fang Flame) " Amagai chanted as he slams the blade into the ground accompanied by a lightning strike. The ground begins to shake as multiple fire spears shoot from the ground at varied angles to trap Yoruichi in a prison of flames.
" Damn it ! " Yoruichi shouted as she's engulf in a massive 500 foot diameter ,1 mile high pillar of flames which engulf everything within it's path in flames hot enough to vaporize rock. Amagai is worn out from the attack .
" Damn it , that attack took alot from me ! " Amagai said to himself as he looks to see Yoruichi still alive but with some light burns on her body.
" Is that all you got ? " Yoruichi smirked.
" Impossible ? How did you withstood that attack ? " Amagai shouted.
" It's time i stop toying around with you ! Shunkō ( 瞬閧,Flash Cry ) " Yoruichi chanted as she gets into her Shunkō form.
" Toying around with me ? How arrogant are you, do you think you're better than me ? I'll show you how foolish you are " Amagai shouted as he comes at Yoruichi with his Bankai blade but Yourichi uses her blade with one hand to easily deflect the blow and knock Amagai shinobi 500 feet away from her.
" I was hoping that you would change your ways but it's clear there's no use talking to you " Yoruichi explained to Amagai as she dashes at Amagai with her sword and cuts him e across the chest with a high-speed slash .
" ARRGH ! " Amagai shouted as he holds onto his chest.
" Had enough ? " Yoruichi taunted while in Shunkō .
" I've just gotten started ,that light cut on my chest isn't enough to stop me " Amagai answered as he charges at Yoruichi with his massive Bankai blade.
Amagai charges at Yoruichi with 5 vertical downward strokes of his massive blade but his massive blade is too slow to catch the Goddess of Flash. Amagai swings down with both hands on his sword creating a massive 2,000 foot long flame fissure running westward but Yoruichi uses Shunpo to dodge the hit .
" Where the hell did she go ? " Amagai asked himself only to see Yoruichi behind him.
" Over here ! " Yoruichi said to the blue haired man as she punches Amagai right in the face and send him flying into the large white tower of the Senzaikyu.
" Damn you bitch ! TAKE THIS ! " Gōen Ryūga: Homura (業炎龍牙 焔, Ultimate Dragon Fang Flame: Blaze)" Amagai chanted as he launched a 15 foot wide blast of fire towards Yoruichi .
" Hanki (反鬼, Reverse Demon) " Yoruichi countered as she negates the justu entirely from a mile away.
" Impossible, she negated my attack ! " Amagai said to himself.
" Shunshinraijin (瞬神雷神, Flashing Lightning God ) " Yoruichi countered as she fires a massive blast of lightning from her right palm to hit Amagai sending Amagai through the large white tower of the Senzaikyu causing the tower to collapse.
The smoke clears up to reveal that Amagai survived the attack and is severely injured from the attack. His Bakkōtō reverted back to it's base state i which only his right arm is covered in a black armored substance and blood cover his upper back , chest and left arm.
" Damn it , damn you to hell ! " Amagai shouted.
" You're armored state of your Bakkōtō is no longer working . Your body is too heavily injured i went easy on you, not just to protect you but if i unleashed a full power blast with my Shunkō, a good chunk of this area would be in a crater. You're at your limit of power, you need to give up this meaningless attempt to gain power " Yoruichi said to Amagai.
" Meaningless you say ? I told you i don't care if i die, as long as i take Yamamoto's head and destroy the corrupt Soul Society and form a new world, if i have to die, you're all going to die with me "Amagai replied as he surrounds himself with flames.
" You're being an idiot, if you allow yourself to be consumed by the Bakkōtō, you'll die " Yoruichi shouted.
" I said i don't care ! " Amagai replied.
" Then i must end your life ! " Yoruichi responded as she puts back her Zanpakutō in her sheathe.
" Then let's settle this , Kyūkyoku Ryūnantsume( 究極龍難爪 Ultimate Dragon Flame Claw ) " Amagai chanted as his Bankai blade powered by his Bakkōtō which forms a massive flaming arm similar to a dragon claw as he comes at Yoruichi .
" Oniken(鬼の拳Demon Fist ) " Yoruichi countered as she release a massive aura charging towards Amagai with the aura of a tiger coming at him.
Both attack collide and both people appear at the other side but Amagai has a large hole blast through his chest while Yoruichi is uninjured .
" Damn it , i've failed ! " Amagai shouted as he falls to the ground and dies from the blow while Yoruichi is exhausted from her battle.
Meanwhile Captains without Zanpakutō's are forced to fight an army of hollows and Menos when the Hollows and Menos start leaving the Soul Society.
" Looks like the Hollows are disappearing ! " Byakuya said to the team.
" Looks like everything has been token care of ! " Sajin stated.
" Well , that was a well needed exercise ! " Mayuri replied as 50 seated officer level Shinigami androids appear who are still in their notable incomplete stages with no synthetic skin and looking more like robots to go fight the Hollow horde led by Nemu .
Meanwhile at Squad 11, Ikkaku, Yachiru , Yumichika and Kenpachi are doing fighting.
" That's it ? How boring ! " Kenpachi whined as he puts back his sword in his sheathe.
" It ended so soon ! " Yachiru replied ass she hops off Kenpachi's back.
" It was a decent warm up ! " Ikkaku stated as he reverts his Shikai to his sealed sword.
" Agreed ! " Yumichika replied as he also reverts into his sealed sword.
1 mile from Orochimaru's Secret Lab
10:30 A.M. Sasuke and Guren continue their fight with each other. Sasuke is forced onto the defensive as the bright light from the crystal dome Guren created robs him of his sight . Sasuke can barely see her even with his Pesquisa activated. Sasuke is covered with bruises and blood as he struggle to see through the attack.
" Trying to sense my Chakra is useless ! " Guren said to Sasuke.
" I can't sense her at all ! " Sasuke said to himself as he struggles to sense her coming.
" Shōton: Omiwatari ( 晶遁・御神渡り Crystal Style: Divine Pathway Jutsu ) " Guren chanted as she appears behind him and places her hand on the ground creating a long stream of sharp crystals to bind and pierce Sasuke. Sasuke barely dodges the attack but his ankle gets cut by the blade.
" ARRGH ! " Sasuke shouted as he trips on the ground and struggles to stand.
" Kesshō Hariseki (結晶針堰 Crystal Needle Barrage ) " Guren chanted as she shoots hundreds of needles towards Sasuke which hit Sasuke in the back with 20 crystal needles .
" ARRGH ! " Sasuke shouted as he falls to the ground.
" I got him good ! " Guren said to herself only to see she hit a clone.
" Fire Style : Fireball Justu " Sasuke chanted as he shoots a massive fire blast at close range seemingly burning Guren however it's revealed to be a crystal clone .
" What the hell , his perception has improved. Is he catching on to me ? " Guren asked herself.
" I'm starting to get the hang of her pattern and my sense of her is starting to improve " Sasuke said to himself.
" Time to get serious ! Shōton: Shuriken Ranbu ( 晶遁・手裏剣乱舞 Crystal Style: Wild Dance of Shuriken )" Guren chanted as she surrounds herself in crystal particles, condensing them into numerous shuriken which then rain onto Sasuke.
" Now ! " Sasuke said to himself as he barely dodges the attack .
" Kesshō: Kyodai Rokkaku Shuriken ( 結晶・巨大六角手裏剣 Giant Crystal Hexagonal Shuriken ) " Guren chanted as she throws a giant crystal shuriken towards Sasuke.
" Shit ! " Sasuke said to himself as he dodges the attack only to not see Guren in front of him charging up her laser.
" Game over ! Shōton: Isshi Kōmyō ( 晶遁・一糸光明 Crystal Style: Arrow of Light ) " Guren chanted as she blast Sasuke with a full power energy blast of light which blast him to the end of the dome with his shirt completely buried on with mild burns on both his arms and his chest.
" Damn it , she's got me good ! " Sasuke said to himself as he struggles to stand from his wounds.
Meanwhile Guren is worn out from fighting Sasuke and is struggling to maintain her curse mark power up.
" Damn it ! I can't maintain this power for long, if i drag this out, the curse mark pill will burn up all the Chakra in my body and i'll die. I must end this fast " Guren said to herself as she slowly walks towards Sasuke forming a sword make of crystal shaped like a katana.
Meanwhile Sasuke notices that half of his Hollow mask is broken and starts to feel his wounds starting to heal .
" My body is starting to recover, could i be .. ? " Sasuke said to himself as he gets back up.
" It's time i get my vengeance for killing Lord Orochimaru . You can hear me right ? Too bad you can't track my voice or sound direction or my scent " Guren said to Sasuke.
" So you're out to avenge Orochimaru ? I understand, you and me both seek revenge " Sasuke said to Guren while still unable to see.
" What are you taking about ? " Guren asked Sasuke.
" You're aware that i'm the last of my clan aside from Itachi Uchiha, i lived for 7 years to get my payback on my brother. I willingly left my village so i can get his power. I used Orochimaru so i can enough power to avenge my clan however when i found another person to give me power, i discarded Orochimaru with the power i was given . Now i have the power to defeat my brother in combat " Sasuke explained to Guren.
" At you're state, you can't hope to achieve your goals. Now it's time to get payback for wait you did to me " Guren said to Sasuke as she comes closer to him.
" What did i ever do to you ? " Sasuke asked.
" I was offered the chance to become one of Orochimaru's future vessels. When you defected from Konohagakure and Kimimaro was no longer a suitable vessel for Orochimaru, i was the next best choice in Orochimaru's eyes. Unfortunately, by the time i arrived, Orochimaru couldn't wait any longer and instead chose Gen'yūmaru. ou robbed me of the moment that thing i always wanted, to become with Lord Orochimaru " Guren explained to the Uchiha survivor.
" You been brainwashed well by Orochimaru ! " Sasuke stated.
" It's not brainwashing, it's all my reasoning. What the hell would you know?! Time to die ! " Guren shouted as she goes to stab Sasuke with her crystal sword and she manages do so however Sasuke uses his right arm to block the blow even though the sword goes through his arm and almost pierces his chest.
" I see, so that's how it works ! " Sasuke said to Guren as he catches her off-guard.
" I see, so you let yourself get stabbed so you can get close to me ? Not bad but highly idiotic " Guren shouted as she drives her sword into Sasuke's arm and has the blade lightly cut his chest and then gets 20 feet from Sasuke extending the blade that long.
" ARRGH ! " Sasuke shouted.
" Now time to end this ! " Guren shouted as she comes at him with another blade aimed at his head.
" Chidori Nagashi ( 千鳥流しOne Thousand Birds Current ) " Sasuke countered as he releases Chidori in every direction creating an explosive electrical discharge that shatters the crystals surrounding him. and hitting Guren .
" ARRGH ! " Guren shouted.
" I got you were i want you . My plan was to lure you close to me and take you and you're crystal dome down now time to end this " Sasuke explained to Guren as he shatters the crystal dome with his massive blast of lightning .
" Damn it ! " Guren shouted as she looks around the area to see her light dome has been scattered and Sasuke can see again.
" It seems like everything is going occurring to plan " Sasuke said to Guren as his Hollowfication starts to heal up his body.
" What's going on ? How are you able to heal from those wounds ? " Guren asked Sasuke.
" The power i was given to by Aizen made this possible, my body has healed fully and with that, i can risk a maneuver like that to break your light mirror justu . Now it's time i put an end to all this " Sasuke explained to Guren as his hollow mask starts to break apart slowly while in CS2 form.
" Bastard ! I can't lose here ! I won't lose, i'll kill you, even if it cost me my life. Lord Orochimaru was my world, my everything, he was like the father i never had and you took him. YOU'RE GOING TO DIE ! " Guren shouted as she grows crystal wings with all her power glowing .
" I see, then it's come to this ? Very well then, it's time i end this too " Sasuke replied as Sasuke the generates lightning in both of hands and them forms a Cero between his hands.
" Take this , this will put an end to your existence . Shōton: Suishō no Kamigami ( 晶遁,水晶の神々 Crystal Style: Crystal Gods ) " Guren chanted as she dashes at Sasuke with crystal wing and the armor with a sword within her hand.
" Chirdoi de Dragón Relámpago ( Spanish for Chirodi Dragon Lightning )" Sasuke chanted as he charges at Guren with a two-handed Chriodi with a Cero core and forming the aura of a dragon.
Both attacks clash together and causes a bright light which engulfs everything within the environment . The light clears up to reveal that Sasuke was stabbed through the shoulder but Guren was pierced through the chest through the heart.
" Damn it ! I've failed you Yukimaru, looks like i'll no be with you until the end ! " Guren said to herself as she lies on the ground and she drops down dead on the floor.
" Looks like you failed in your quest for revenge while i succeeded in living to carry out my revenge " Sasuke said to Guren only for his Hollow Mask to shatter and his CS2 form to wear off and he reverts back to normal and collapses due to exhaustion.
Ulquiorra then flies down to the ruins of the battlefield. Rain starts to fall heavily within the ruins of the landscape Ulquiorra looks 2 miles east to see a 500 foot deep, 1,500 foot diameter crater and then looks 4 miles north to see a formerly large 4,000 foot high mountain collapse into a massive 1,500 foot high and 7,500 foot wide pile of ash and debris and then stares at the center of Sasuke and Guren's clash which left behind a 3,487 foot wide, 1,156 foot deep crater.
" Looks like you improved quite a bit Sasuke, pretty soon , you'll be able to stand at the top with us. No wonder Aizen has interest in you " Ulquiorra said to himself as he picks up Sasuke and carries him away.
Meanwhile at Orochimaru's hidden base
Karin ,Suigestu and Jugo have managed to prevail over their battles with Rinji and the 200 level 2 curse mark prisoners . Jugo and Suigestu are worn out from their battle after fighting Nurari and Gozu and then having to fight 200 level 2 cure mark prisoners with little Chakra.
" Damn, i couldn't believe we had to fight that many people without Chakra " Suigestu said to Jugo.
" I know , it's not as easy doing that without having to use Justu " Jugo replied as they see Karin come out the shadows with blood on her hands , bruises on her body and torn clothes as well as some cuts on her body.
" Boy that was tiring ! " Karin said to the group as she puts on her glasses with broken lenses.
" That wasn't too bad Karin, you actually won you're fight " Suigestu said to Karin.
" I might not be as monstrously strong as the you of you are but i can handle myself in a fight. How else do you think that Orochimaru would allow me to guard one of his strongest prisons ? " Karin explained to Suigestu.
" Well we got the blueprints and finished off the remnants of Orochimaru's army, let's get going " Suigestu said to Jugo and Karin only to see Rinji get back up with a scroll like paper bomb wrapped around his chest.
" So you bastards came to steal Orochimaru's secret ? I'll never allow that to happen ! I'll take you out even if it cost me my life " Rinji shouted as he lights the paper bomb scroll up.
" Shit, i though i killed you stabbing in the chest ! " Karin shouted.
" You should've hit me in the neck because i was wearing some armor underneath it , you're kunai did pierce it but it only lightly cut my chest . Now i'm going to take you all out " Rinji shouted as he rushes towards the group.
" But all of the sudden, he's hit by a small Bala that vaporizes him entirely. Ulquorria then appears with Sasuke over his shoulders carrying him.
" Looks like you guys did a good job here ! " Ulquiorra said to the group.
" Thank you ! " Jugo and the group replied.
" We got everything within the base ! " Karin said to the Espada.
" Very well then, let's return back to Las Noches ! " Ulquiorra said to the team as he opens up a portal to Hueco Mundo as he goes with the group back to the realm of the Hollows.
Soul Society
12:00 A.M. the Gotei 13 returns to normal after a chaotic battle with the Bakkōtō users. Gyōkaku Kumoi ,the leader of the rebellion and all his associates were killed off and 250 remaining members of the rebellion were arrested and detained to the Maggots Nest.
Yoruichi and Soifon are being talked to by Yamamoto about the success of busting the Kumoi rebels who tried to bring down the Kasumiōji Clan household and take down the Soul Society.
" Congratulation on your efforts by taking down those assassins ! " Yamamoto said to Yoruichi.
" No problem, we knew they were planing something big given the increased level of crime within the Rukongai even with the increased presence of Shinigami and we acted fast. They would've been a real threat if they attacked after the war " Yoruichi explained to the Captain Commander.
" We're forever in your debt Yoruichi, you have proven yourself to be innocent within the trials and you helped us greatly over the years, especially with the Quincy war. As an reward , i'll allow you to attain anything you desire as a reward " Yamamoto said to Yoruichi.
" Very well Yamamoto, but i don't deserve all the credit, that also should go to Captain Soifon and Vice Captain Ibiki " Yoruichi stated.
" You helped out greatly Lady Yoruichi, you deserve most of the credit " Soifon replied.
" By the way , where is Vice Captain Ibiki ? " Yoruichi asked.
" She's currently within the world of the living finishing her mission to protect Rurichiyo " Soifon answered.
At the same
Karakura High School
12:00 Noon, The Vice Captains are in the world of the living recovering from the wounds by Vice Captain Isane while Unohana and Mayuri are taking care of the damage done to Karakura Town .
" What is the damage of the town ? " Unohana asked Mayuri.
" Severe damage to the Karakura Town high school and 30 buildings were leveled within a fiery explosion within Karakura Town with 200 buildings burned by the attack and several dozen buildings damaged by the battles with the Bakkōtō assassins and Vice Captains " Nemu explained to the two Captains.
" Only several hundred buildings ? That's no problem, we can clean up most of this mess in an hour " Mayuri stated.
" Thankfully it's nothing like the nightmare that occurred a week ago " Unohana replied.
" Or the terrible incident 20 years ago that nearly leveled this country that took an entire week to repair " Mayuri responded.
" We'll cover up the events an massive gasline explosion within the school and rewrite everyone memories into thinking the school was cleared out " Mayuri stated.
" Makes prefect sense , we'll go with that ! " Unohana replied as they walk around the town.
Meanwhile the Vice Captains are being treated of their wounds around Isshin's house with Isshin standing there with Kon in stuff animal form.
" We've definitely managed to beat those Bakkōtō users and Kumoi together ! " Iba said to the gang .
" Indeed, it took us everything we got but we did it together ! " Momo explained to everyone
" Yeah now i'm confident that after all this, we can get stronger and get some payback to what the Shinobi's did to use back in Konoha " Renji stated.
" Indeed, give us a few months and each of us would be as strong as Captains! " Hisagi replied.
" We were incredible out there ! " Nanao stated.
" Indeed, with this level of power, we can't lose again ! " Rukia replied.
" I was incredible sister ! " Kiyone said to Isane as her sister heals her wounds.
" I can tell, you're gotten stronger. You and Sentarō might soon be Vice Captain level " Isane explained to Kiyone.
Meanwhile at the house next to Isshin's house , Ibiki's says goodbye to Rurichiyo and her bodyguards.
" You're finally safe from assassination attempts but now you won't get to run around playing all the time " Ibiki said to Rurichiyo .
" What are you talking about ? We were able to have a great time exploring the real world thanks to you " Rurichiyo asked her.
" I'm sorry but it' going to get more dangerous as months come by, you must be ready to take the title of ruler of your noble clan and become queen soon to help preserve order " Ibiki explained to Rurichiyo.
" I understand , i'm no longer a kid. I have to make sure that no terrible mistakes like what occurred happened again . I'll make sure to avoid people as sad and miserable as Shūsuke Amagai again anyone as sexist and bigoted as Gyōkaku Kumoi from entering our clan . The next time we meet, i'll make sure i'm the ruler of the clan "Luchirio explained to Ibki .
" Good luck with that ! " Ibiki stated.
" Farewell Ibiki, we will meet again ! " Rurichiyo replied as she goes back to the Noble house of the Kasumiōji clan.
" To think all of this was going on all this time " Kon said to Isshin.
" Indeed, this i the second time this month this town was attacked " Isshin replied while still in his Gigai.
" Mr Isshin ! " Rukia said to the middle-aged father.
" What is it Rukia ? " Isshin asked.
" I wonder how long it is before you tell your son the truth ? " Rukia asked Isshin.
" It's not the right time yet, when Ichigo is ready to enter the Winter War, i'll tell him the truth only then would he be ready for his final training " Isshin said to Rukia.
" Final training ? " Rukia asked Isshin.
" Even with Ichigo's increased power from this training he'll never be able to beat Aizen himself. You'll learn the training once that time comes, that time where Ichigo would prove himself worthy to stand on par with the Senior Captains " Isshin explained to Rukia.
Meanwhile at Vizard Hideout
Ichigo has managed to sup after a while of rest and lunch and is about to go into his next level . Ichigo has managed to achieve Evolución in less than a week when it took years for even the best Vizards to take this form . Shortly after achieving his form, he easily defeated Hiyori in battle and is out for the next test.
" I'm ready for my next test , bring it on ! " Ichigo explained to Shinji.
" Very well then, we're going to go through the process of using your new form " Shinji said to Ichigo as he backs away to see Kensei appear with his Shikai in hand .
" What are we going to do now ? " Ichigo asked Kensei.
" We're going to do what we did last time , however unlike last time, there won't be Hollowfication chains to help you. You must actively drag out that power of yours to use without allowing yourself to hollowfy and lose control " Kensei explained to Ichigo.
" I know, if i use Evolución , i temporarily shelve my own Reiastu in order to use my Inner Hollow's power which allows the Hollow to automatically drain me of my Reiastu. I felt all my power being converted from my Bankai to my Hollow form and while my power increased drastically, my control and my stamina dropped greatly . I'll just have to do it right " Ichigo explained to Kensei as he puts his hand on face and begins to hollowfy.
" Very well then ! Evolución :Tachikaze Mano Durael Rey ( Spanish for Iron fist king ) " Kensei chanted as he puts on his Vizard mask and transforms into his full powered state.
" Very well , time to use my Evolución " Ichigo replied as he hollowfies into his base Hollow mask.
" Nice one however it seems you've still yet to master a straight up transformation to your Evolución, just raw your power from your mask and pour as much power to it until your hollow power covers your entire body and shape it to your full power " Kensei said to Ichigo as he watches Ichigo pour more power into his mask.
" I can do this , i can do this ! " Ichigo said to the Vizards
" He's overdoing it ! " Lisa stated as Ichigo pour more power into his mask.
" That idiot, i knew it was a fluke the first time around " Hiyori smiled as she enjoys looking at Ichigo fail.
" Shit , i can't handle this ! " Ichigo shouted as he starts to go into his first Hollow form.
" Hachigen, dispel it ! " Shinji shouted as Ichigo's body starts to transform.
" Right ! " Hachigen replied.
" No need ! " Kensei replied as he uses Shunpo and punches Ichigo in the back of the head and smashes his face into the ground.
" ARRGH ! " Ichigo shouted as his face hits the ground and his mask cracks from the force of the blow.
" Looks like Ichigo isn't exactly ready to do this without the hollowfication chains " Hachigen said to Shinji.
" He must, he'll never achieve mastery of that form without it " Shinji replied.
" OWWCH ! Son of a bitch, what the hell you hit me like that ? " Ichigo shouted.
" Because this is a fight moron ! I'm not as soft as Hiyori, i'm not going to just wait for you to hollowfy, if i was the enemy , you've would've been long dead . I'm only giving you 5 second to transform into your Hollow state, if you don't hollowfy fast enough, you're getting punched , hollowfy too fast and you're transform and i'll punch you twice as hard . You're lucky i'm only in Shikai, imagine how much my punches hurt in Bankai " Kensei ranted.
" Damn, i felt like i almost died from that punch ! " Ichigo shouted.
" You better do a better job next time! " Kensei said to Ichigo as he comes at Ichigo.
" Ichigo, you have no idea how important this step is. Before you can master the full power of your Bankai, you must fully conquer the Hollow power within you. Isshin, i promise to make Ichigo strong enough to handle the final training by the time the winter war occurs. He's our only hope in beating Sosuke Aizen " Shinji said to himself as Ichigo fights Kensei.
Las Noches
1:00 P.M. and his team return to give Aizen what he wanted. The documents of Orochimaru's curse mark formula.
" Congratulations Sasuke, you've done well with your mission ! " Aizen said to Sasuke.
" No problem lord Aizen , i've followed my end of the deal. Now with that, can you grant my subordinates the power they desire ? " Sasuke asked Aizen.
" Well of course Sasuke, you've served your purpose well and as an exchange, i'll give you a whole day to rest so we can resume training you to take down Itachi " Aizen answered.
" Great, i can't wait until i get that cool hollow power Sasuke has ! " Suigetsu stated.
" Hopefully it can control the violent urges i have ! " Jugo replied.
" And i can finally be strong enough to help Sasuke " Karin responded.
" Don't worry, soon everyone would be strong enough and we can achieve all of our goals " Aizen replied again.
Soul Society, 120 miles from the Seireitei
6 :00 P.M. Kakashi, Yūgao, Sai and Yamato arrive at the Soul Society wearing ragged clothing in disguise of poor Rukongai civilians. They are within the middle of a barren wasteland.
" We've made it here ! " Kakashi said to the team.
" Is this really the Soul Society ? " Yūgao asked Kakashi.
" It barely looks different from our world " Sai answered.
" It's even approaching nighttime ! " Yamato stated.
" Our focus isn't the appearance right now, our job is to find the Seireitei, the heart of the Gotei 13's strength and break into their defenses and find the source of the power and steal it's secrets " Kakashi explained to the group.
" We have a long way to go from there ! " Yamato replied.
" Perhaps we can help you ! " said a young man with spiky green hair and red eyes walking around with a Shinigami robe.
" We would be glad to help you guys out " said a pale man who's bald and has a mustache and beard and wearing glasses and a Shinigami robe.
" Shinigami !" Yamato shouted as he draws out his kunai.
" Prepare to die ! " Yūgao shouted.
" Wait, don't hurt us ! " the green haired man shouted.
" Were here to help you guys ! " the bald man replied.
" Oh really ? We'll see if you're telling the truth. Interrogation Genjutsu " Kakashi chanted as he uses handseals and puts both Shinigami in a Genjustu.
" We are former Shinigami who have defected from the Gotei 13 for opposition of the attack on Konoha , my name is Shita Horsimi and that's my partner Siga Satorishi. We will take you to our leader, who expected you guys to come along the way " the two men confessed to the group.
" I see, we'll just have to take our chances with this " Kakashi said to the group.
"Something doesn't seem right. They were expecting us ? " Yūgao questioned Kakashi.
" I agree, something seems sketchy here " Sai stated.
" This could all be a trap by the Shinigami ! " Yamato explained to Kakashi.
" Interrogation Genjutsu breaks the will of his targets to make him or her give as much information as possible. They were telling the truth, there our best chance to breach the Soul Society " Kakashi explained to the group.
" I guess that's the risk they're willing to take " Kakashi replied.
Meanwhile from a hilltop, Gin and Tōusen are watching their plan go together.
" To think they buy into out bait so easily " Gin said to Tōusen .
" Indeed, Aizen has arranged everything well together. By using his Kyōka Suigetsu, those two Shinigami are under complete hypnosis. Not even a Genjustu used to break down minds can break Aizen's control, for they don't preiceve it as a lie and therefore Aizen has rewrote their memories and personalities for this purpose " Gin explained to Tōusen.
" Aizen is indeed brilliant ! " Tōusen stated.
" Indeed, but we must act on Aizen's orders and ensure they get the intel they need, otherwise we lose the opportunity to pit both world against each other " Gin replied as they look at Kakashi and his team head to their destination.
" I wonder how things are going for the Arrancars are doing in our absence ? " Tōusen said to Gin.
Meanwhile at Las Noches.
Aizen. Skullak and Cirucci are measuring the progress of each Arrancar in how the new Arrancars fared against the older Arrancars.
" The new recruits of the Arrancar army didn't do too badly against the more experienced Fracción and Numeros " Skullak said to Aizen.
" I see, what were the results ? " Aizen asked Skullak.
" Pow was able to beat newcomer Retrax without the need to release his Zanpakutō but Retrax still was able to put up a good fight against Poww " Skullak explained to Aizen.
" Considering Poww is one of the heaviest hitters of the Espada and he can take even a Vice Captain with released Shikai bare handed, it's surprising Retrax lasted that long " Cirucci explained to Skullak.
" Skeeter and Findor fought evenly at their current state. Both started to fight at a fifth seat level Findor eventually won when he uses his release from to beat Skeeter but Seekter was fighting up to Vice Captain level" Skullak explained to Aizen.
" How did the Drill Bit Arrancar do ? " Aizen asked Skullak .
" Against Mila Rose, quite well, he was no match however for her release form even with the release from he used to force her into her release from " Skullak explained to Aizen.
" How did that Spitter fare ? " Aizen asked Skullak.
" He had the advantage against Loly because in release form skin is coat is poison, so Loly own poison wouldn't effect him however given Loly's immunity to poison, it was a draw " Skullak explained to Aizen.
" As for Skika and Ggio , it was be close to an even match however Gigo was able to prevail in the end " Cirucci said to Aizen.
" Shadow and Apacci also had an almost even fight too but the experience of Appaci was enough to prevail against them " Skullak explained to Aizen.
" Terragator and Sung-sun's fight also ended in a draw because Terra had both power and defense on his side, while Sung-sun had power and speed " Cirucci explained to Aizen.
" The same outcome also occurred with Inyector and Shawlong, Wasupītā and Fran, Inferuno and Edrad and Kuikku and Avirama,the only battle which a newcomer was able to beat the old one was Taransu vs Yylfordt " Skullak said to Aizen.
" I see, that's rather odd ! " Aizen explained to the duo.
" It seems like this Arrancar is a bit too cunning to be a mere recruit " Skullak replied.
Somewhere in Hucedo Mundo
Meanwhile at a far distance from Las Noches, Taransu is using a cellphone to call .
" Hello, is everything in plan Lord Moradrath ? " Taransu asked.
" Yes, we have everything set up as our little plan to take Aizen's Hōgyoku " Moradarth answered.
" They brought me being a Adjuchas hook, line and sinker thanks to my special ability that allows me to revert to my Hollow appearance and just like that, i've become stronger without Aizen realizing it, what an idiot " Taransu explained to Moradarth.
" Good job, you need to make sure you get what we need before tomorrow, my élite force along with a defective member of Las Noches's branch of the Arrancar Army would be coming her armed with Reisutōnsage bombs " Moradarth explained to Taransu.
" So you've finally planned your attack on Aizen ? " Tranastu asked Moradrath.
" Yes and pretty soon, this place will cease to exist and i can become the true god of Hueco Mundo ! HAHAHAHAHA! " Moradrath laughed as doom awaits Las Noches.
To be continued
A/N: Sorry for the massive 3 month delay within the fan fic. I have recently been seeking employment and alot of events have occurred over the space of 3 months which have slowed down progress. Here are the reasons why things have been so slow .
The first reason i have token this long is due to the fact that I've been looking for work to pay the bills in the house and it hasn't been easy for me to get enough time to get things done and wasn't until late January until things got stabilized . Now that i have stabilized financial problems, i can continue to bring you this storyline
Another reason why i've delayed the story this long is that i wanted to see how the Kenpachi vs Unohana battle pay off and see if it was worth retconing. As if you recall in the previous chapter, i wrote the female Kenpachi which was an OC based on Fairy Tail's Erza Scarlet named Hiiro Azre Kishiuōkā aka Kenpachi Crimson as homage to Erza and Unohana's awesomeness and was panning to change until i actually read that battle.
Allow me to step into Manga criticism for a second : WTF?! I am so pissed off and disgusted that I can't even begin to explain my anger to you guys . I read what had to be five of the shittiest chapters known to man. Kubo should be shot after what he did to Unohana. Furthermore, Kenpachi's powerup was the biggest ass pull I've ever read in my life. Kubo ruined what was left of a once great manga series. I can go into details how Bleach has decline in the last 2-3 years but i don't want to end up using up anymore space than i had with this chapter but boy Kubo, way to kill off more of your fandom.
By contrast Naruto didn't just live up to the hype of awesomeness that was predated before this weeks chapter but the 400 chapters of buildup to this epic fight really paid off nicely and in ways far defining anything possible within the series. Oh fucking shit. Dragon Susanoo Armor on Kurama! A massive Sage Buddha stature with 1,000 arms ! The OP level in this manga just broke through a few more ceilings in the the skyscraper of UBERNESS. Honestly chapter 621 had me more hyped for Naruto given it's been really doing well since the Obito revelation and yes that was a well done revelation. The jury is still out whether to have Hashirama in the sequel but Edo Hashirama vs Yamamoto sounds like an epic enough fight
God this chapter is awful , let me wrap this shit up before i drag this out any further. Unohana is killed by Kenpachi and therefore ending this fight and boy am i pissed off by the fucking death. NO , UNOHANA ISN'T GOING TO BE KILLED OFF ! NO, I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THAT PEICE OF SHIT RETCON ABOUT KID KENPACHI AND NO, I REFUSE TO FOLLOW ANY CONTINUITY WITHIN THIS AWFUL TIMESKIP ! Unohana is going to survive and fight Tsunade and be a total badass, Erza expy OC i made as first Kenpachi will stay the first Kenpachi and Kenpachi would get a far better battle and training to get to his potential .At this point i'm not including anything from the Bleach timeskip except Squad Zero, Yamamoto's Bankai ans Sasabike's Bankai. Why mention it ? Because i've reached my breaking point for Bleach . I've quit caring about the manga and have pretty much quit reading that godawful manga because i'm tired of seeing a once great series like Bleach destroy itself, especially when it used to be one of the first managas i've ever read.
Which brings me to the third reason why this took 3 months. It's become uneasy writing this fan fic with the drastic shift in quality with both series. Both Naruto and Bleach reached their lowest point around 2011 and it was really that disappointment for both series that fueled me to write this fan fic in the first place so i can make Bleach and Naruto actually be good again and i wrote this fan fic in respect of the best aspects for both series however as of last year, Naruto actually started to get better after the who 571-572 chapter which pushed Naruto to uber badass status and then the Obito revelation sealed the deal. Bleach on the other hand sank even lower with the Quincy arc and while it did had an ultra badass moment in the form of Yamamoto's Bankai, the killing off of his character so early and then the horribly Masaki killed any joy i had for Bleach remaining that wasn't crushed by the FAILbirnger or Decide arcs .
Don't worry,. i'm not quitting this fan fic by a longshot but i feel that it's becoming much harder to write a neutral position on both series when one series isn't just crushing another in quality writing but even in the power scales. While the Soul King has alot of potential, Juubi has shown to be more than enough to wipe out anyone in Bleach and really do hope by the time the Sequel to Bleach Shippuden reaches it's final arc, i can say that Bleach has a fighter on the level of Rikudo Sennin or Juubi and we don't get another letdown like Unohana's disappointing payoff or her lameass Bankai.
Also speaking of Fairy Tail, that's a pretty good series and it's pretty much replaced the love i once had for Bleach. It's more enjoyable than Naruto and Bleach and treats it's side characters and especially main female characters alot better than the two series and it's fun and lighthearted and doesn't take itself to seriously yet can be just as action packed as Bleach and Naruto in their heydays.
Fairy Tail is a very enjoyable anime . It's a classical Shonen anime that is both lighthearted and serious. It has several things in common with One Piece and Soul Eater when it comes to pacing and fun factor and while it's a bit Cliche and a bit too lighthearted at some points, it makes up for having alot of good qualities that make good Shonen . This show has all of the qualities of greatness... Great characters, interesting plot, well done animation, and amazing music! This anime will keep you entertained to say in the least! I'd say that this may be the next top anime! Next to One Piece and Full Metal Alchemist , it's my favorite Shonen anime.
There's a reason why i've mentioned this series , it's going to be written in fan fiction by me as a crossover with Naruto co written by user Amikas117, a newcomer on this site who gave me the idea to make a Fairy Tail/Naruto crossover. The Fairy Tail /Naruto crossover starts with Team Natsu going on a mission when they are warped to Naruto's world and that's where things get interesting . The events of the Pein Invasion happen like in canon, Pein attacks however the Fairy Tail characters land in the middle of the village and this is where things take a very interesting turn for both series.
Anyways expect the chapter to be almost entirely co written by my friend darkmachines as we get more into the character development of the Arrancars as Patros tires to exact his revenge. Many thanks to him for helping to write the character development of the Arrancars and helping have more depth and character than just having them as canonfodder for Shinigmai like in canon . Also expect things to pick up now that the Shinobi found their way into the Soul Society and things to get more crazy as Gin and Tousen secretly aid the Shinobi to keep the flames of war going between the Shinobi Aillanice and the Gotei 13. There would be more setup and development until the final payoff occurs!
If you need me, I'll be rewriting parts of this fan fic for quality improvement.
