The Hollow with No Name

The Captains meeting

"Miyako Shiba, you may begin with your account" Yamamoto said with an air of authority. He had clearly stated in the beginning of the meeting that the hollow attack in Seireti was an insult to the Gotei 13 itself.

Yet in the row nearest to the Captain Commander was a man who wanted this information for another reason altogether. 'The hollow looked remarkably similar Kaien, finally some excitement after all' Aizen mentally smirked.

Then Miyako began to recount her experience with beginning with attack by the hollow with tentacles, and then moved on to how out of the blue the new hollow appeared, and how it vanquished the first hollow with remarkable ease. Aizen was impressed by this new hollow that he had found, maybe this was the perfect specimen he had been searching for all this while. He no longer had any need for that Isshin or his family.

'Time for some modification has come.' Aizen thought as smiled, " You said that this hollow saved you. You also mentioned that he looks incredibly similar your husband fuku-taicho Kaien of the 13 division. Is it not possible, that you may have imagined that he looks similar to your husband under the stress of the situation?"

"I think that could be possible. No I am not sure anymore." Miyako replied confused." How the hollow looks is highly irrelevant to this meeting. What do you aim to gain from this information Aizen Taicho." Toshiro asked.

"Nothing, just curious as to why a hollow would try to save a shingami." Aizen replied with a kind smile.

"It doesn't matter whether it saved a shingami or not. What is important is how it managed to enter the Seireti without us knowing about it." Yamamoto thundered as he hit the ground with his cane.

Everybody looked at Kurotsuchi "This is not my fault; the sensor can detect hollow rieatsu perfectly. Every sensor has a fixed range, it is not my fault that he was outside the range" Kurotsuchi protested.

"This means that either this hollow was pathetically weak or..." Captain Ukitake paused the implications were felt throughout the room.

"Are you afraid? He should be fun to fight" Kenpachi asked with a grin. Meanwhile Aizen was deep in his thoughts 'Could it be that it has transcended the limitations of the hollow and the shingami. I had tested the fool's sensors, they were very effective. This could be the answer that I have been searching for, the next level."

Suddenly a shingami came running in "Sir there has been a hollow sighted in Roukongai sector 5" he panted due to the fact that he was running.

"You can't kill a mere hollow?" Yamamoto asked with contempt. "Sorry sir, but it is too strong. " "Out of my way this one's mine" Kenpachi ran out grinning like mad.

Ichigo Kurosaki was having a tough time controlling his movements so that he did not kill anyone by mistake. "King, cut yourself some slack, let them die." Shiro shouted inside his head.

"Ichigo you need to rethink your plan. I don't think killing Aizen straight away wasn't what Chouka meant by following your heart." Zangetsu reasoned. "You really need to think, Ichi-nii" Chouka also joined.

"It doesn't matter with him out of the way. Everything will be solved" Ichigo replied mentally as he punched a shingami in the gut." It is not as simple as that, every event in the past contributed to the future. Your must move carefully and plan your actions so that they don't harm you in the long run" Zangetsu said .

"What do you mean?" Ichigo asked perplexed. "Old man over here is trying to tell ya that, ya will change past to drastically. It will come and bite you in the ass, after a while" Shiro explained in his unique manner.

"You may not be born, Ichi-nii" Chouka said worriedly. Ichigo mentally cursed himself; Aizen had played a major role in him becoming this strong. If he killed Aizen right now, this timeline's Ichigo may never become that strong.

"You have to move in the shadows like Aizen does" Zangetsu offered. "We need to get out of here fast" Shiro said.

Hueco Muendo was the only place he could go to now. Ichigo sighed " Shiro how do you make a Gargatan ?" Ichigo asked his hollow. "Stretch your hand and try to rip the air while imagining the place you want to go to" Shiro explained.

"There you are, I hope you are strong" Kenpachi grinned as he charged at Ichigo. "Shit, just what we needed" Ichigo muttered as he ducked. He sensed someone approaching him at high speeds."Trouble always comes in a pair" Ichigo cursed while jumping to put some distance between them.

"Yay, Kenny-chan has found a new friend" Yachiru squealed as sat on a nearby rock. " Yachiru stay there this one's strong. Release your sword." Kenpachi frowned.

"Don't do it Ichigo, he will get killed" Chouka warned in his mind. Ichigo nodded and shunidoed behind Kenpachi, "What the..." Kenpachi turned only to find a hand through his abdomen. Kenpachi fell to the ground with blood flowing out of his wound profusely.

"You there, take care of him" Ichigo motioned to Yachiru who nodded quickly and rushed to heal his hole. "Ichigo, what did I tell you about not changing the past." Zangetsu scolded Ichigo.

"Don't worry Oyaji, Kenpachi will not die from this wound. Look even Unohona is coming this way" Ichigo replied. Unohona landed in front him taking a defensive stance.

Ichigo smiled "Grande ray cero" Unohona chanted something which he could not make out and countered his cero with a kido. "Give up Hollow you are surrounded by us" Yamamoto Said from behind him.

"Who are you?" Byakuya asked from his side. Ichigo smiled even more" I have no name" and ripped open a Gargatan. "You are not going to walk away from here alive hollow" Yamamoto said as his unleashed Riyojin Jakka. The Captains fell on their knees under his spiritual pressure.

Ichigo remained unaffected, "How is this possible?" Yamamoto asked dazed. "So long gramps" Ichigo said as jumped into the darkness. 'That hollow will be a great asset to me' Aizen thought as he rose, 'He must be brought to my side'.

Meanwhile

" 'I have no name' that is plagiarism, King. Accept it ya stole my line" an angry Shiro shouted in his head. "Sorry, I couldn't think of anything else. I just couldn't tell them my real name" Ichigo apologised. Shiro quietened down with a grunt, " Do you have any ideas about what to do Oyaji?" Ichigo asked his Zanpaktou.

"Ichigo you now have the chance of perfecting the abilities of your current form" Zangetsu answered. "So more training" Ichigo said as he got up from the Sand ground of Hueco Mundo.

"Let us have a look around this place. " Ichigo raced towards the highest dune near him. He was greeted by a familiar sight."Is that Las Noches?" Ichigo asked the spirits, "I believe it is true" Zangetsu answered him. "I thought Aizen built it" Ichigo thought aloud.

"I should stay as far as possible from it" Ichigo mused and began walking in the opposite direction to it. His instincts screamed at him to duck and he did, the war taught him many things and one of them was to trust your instincts. It was good that he did that to, because he narrowly missed cero.

"You have amazing reflexes for a hollow with no rieatsu" the voice said patronisingly. A pig like hollow appeared on top of a nearby dune. "You look like a Vasto lorde, you should pledge your allegiance to lord Barragan." Ichigo sliced his head off with ease and continued walking. "Mindless acts of violence would cause you to lose your mind and become what aim to fight" Zangetsu spoke up.

" Right now I must find a safe haven from the others and polish my skills" Ichigo said to the spirits as he continued his Journey deeper into the dessert Hueco Mundo.

Seireti

It was total chaos everywhere, it is said that bad news spreads like wildfire and it is apparently true, since the news of how a single hollow managed to outwit the Gotei 13 had reached the ears of the Central 46.

The captains were receiving taunts and jabs for the past one hour. 'Lap it up while it lasts fools. One day I will kill you' Aizen fumed, of course his face showed a neutral expression. After the tongue lashing the captains distributed the video which Kurotsuchi had shot while the others were fighting the hollow.

"This hollow has made a mockery out of us. We need to eliminate it the next time we it" Yamamoto thundered in the Captains meeting they had afterwards.

"Look on the bright side, nobody got killed" Shunsui said hoping to calm the situation." The hollow left us to live in the shame of our defeat "Byakuya fumed. " I must agree the hollow refused to lift his sword against Kenpachi." Toshiro added, Shunsui sighed, all his efforts had gone down in vain.

Aizen and his comrades were happy, now they could proceed more freely in their plans as the others would be too distracted by this new hollow.

One century later, near Ichigo's Birth year

Ichigo was bored; it was the same thing day after day or rather night after night. Wake train till you drop, rest, fire all his long range attacks, rest, meditate and then sleep. He was sick of it.

"Can we do something different today?" Ichigo almost whined, it probably helped that he would go into meditations for years at a stretch having else to do in his free time.

But everything had limit nobody did the same things for a century and not get insane. No wonder the Arrancar he faced were crazy. Luckily for him he had his spirits to talk to. "Maybe we can make an exception today and you can go near Las Noches. But no fights" Zangetsu warned him, in the recent years Zangetsu had taken the role of a teacher to Ichigo, while the others tended to see him as a sibling.

Fate seemed to hate him, for as soon as he entered the vicinity of Las he was attacked by Barragan's hordes.

"What do we have here, A Vasto lorde" A deep voice rumbled. Ichigo killed the hollow he was facing and looked at the source, it was Barragan.

"A fight with you will be more interesting than having my army kill each other" Barragan smirked as walked towards him. Ichigo sighed he needed to get out of there. So he fired a cero, which Barragan dodged and the cero sailed past him and destroyed a part of Las Noches, a large part.

"Why you insignificant insect ..." Barragan roared as charged head first at Ichigo.
