A/N:

Hi guys, I've managed to gather some help from a fellow reader to edit the first 2 chapters. Hopefully, this version's grammar is better than before!
A big THANK YOU to PandaHat97 for your assistance! 3

Ichigo stood in front of Las Noches; it looked almighty grand now that he had to time to finally have a good look at it.

"A good fit for the King" Shiro said, having able to manifest himself now that they are in Hueco Mundo.

"Let's go Shiro, prepare yourself, there might be rogue arrancars in there."

"I'm born ready, King." Shiro threw Ichigo a smirk.

The two split souls wandered through the halls of Las Noches, raising their reiatsu to alert any surviving arrancars of their presence.
"Tsk, King, if you want to take over the place, you beat the hell out of them and claim it as yours."
"Dammit Shi, can't you think of better ways than using violence?!"
"I've taught you better King." With this Shiro cackled, Ichigo couldn't help but laugh too.

"Itsyyygooooo!"
'That sounded familiar.'

"Nel?" Ichigo and Shiro looked towards where the voice came from and were greeted with a shocking sight.
Standing in front of them were the "enemies" and "traitor" of the Soul Society. Ichigo looked, eyes bulging and mouth wide open and unable to speak, until he was glomped.

"Gyaaaa! Nel get off me please!" exclaimed Ichigo, whose face is now as red as Renji's hair.

By now, Shiro is already rolling on the floor laughing his ass off at the pathetic sight of his King.

-At the Lounge-

"So, mind telling me why you guys aren't dead? And you, Grimmjow! I saw you die with my own eyes!"
"Tsk, Nel saved me with her gooey puddle of spit when I was about to die. Deal with it Kurosaki." Grimmjow waved him off, sitting beside Shiro on a 3-seater couch. The two had hit it off instantly after the laugh and had been debating on who is the stronger of them both until now. Ichigo had to pull Shiro back into his mind twice to prevent them from battling then and there.

"And you, Ichimaru Taicho?" Ichigo eyed Ichimaru, he had learned from Matsumoto that Ichimaru's true intention of helping Aizen is to defeat Aizen and revenge her. He had gained Ichigo's respect and Ichigo can fully relate to the silver-haired feelings. He would have took revenge for his friends too, but most likely in a brasher way than Ichimaru's neatly thought-out plan.

"Uh uh, someone healed me. And I can't go back to Seireitei, they'd definitely lock me in the maggot's nest." was Ichimaru's reply.
"What? But you are not exactly a traitor! Shouldn't they give you a chance to explain at least?" Ichigo can feel his anger rising upon hearing the unfairness the Soul Society is showing.

"Maa maa, Ichi-Kun, this is the Seireitei. Trust me; I've lived there long enough to know that they won't admit their mistake and bow down to anyone else." Ichimaru opened his eyes, showing off his aquamarine eyes, looking seriously at Ichigo.

Stunned, Ichigo couldn't move but he knew he was entranced by the beautiful eyes that had seen too much, and yet looking at him now sincerely as if wishing for him to do something to ease his pain. And Ichigo will do anything, for his friends and now, his comrades.

Ichigo turned to look at Szayelaporro Granz, he recalled Ishida talking about some pest who just couldn't stop regenerating. 'This must be him.' Shiro snickered when he heard Ichigo's thoughts.

"I believe that glasses boy told you about me huh, and yes, I kept a clone of myself so I can regenerate as long as I have reiatsu. And I always keep a bottle of my own reiatsu with me. That glasses boy, tsk, to think he dares to decapitate my magnificent resurreccion.I need to teach him a lesson again!" Szayel broke the silence and starts rambling about his fight between Ishida and himself.

Just then, the door flew open, catching everyone off guard. Ichigo grabbed his Zangetsu and was about to swing it upon the intruder when he realized that it was a heavily injured Tier Harribel. Nel quickly ran over to Tier and support her falling body and laid her on the couch. Ichimaru started working on healing kido to ease her pain and injuries.

"What happen to you Harribel-San?" Ichigo asked, concerned for her health and at the same time, wanting to know who did this to her. Ichigo looked at Harribel, her once radiant blonde was now damp and matted with dried blood, and her body is also sporting various dark bruises and cuts. And most gruesome of all is the patch of flesh that was torn off her shoulders, it seemed to be bitten off. Ichigo clenched his fist, trying to take deep breaths and willed himself to calm down. 'I need to be patient.' Ichigo felt Shiro's reiatsu brushing against him and he threw Shiro an appreciative glance.

"There were too many… Menos…Gone rogue." Tier Harribel managed to speak before passing out from her injuries.

'Shit! It must be the lack of a ruler that caused the uproar.' His eyes met with Shiro's and Grimmjow's, they all know that something has to be done.

"Ichimaru Taicho, please continue to heal Harribel-San. Nel, please assist Ichimaru Taicho. Szayel-San, please come with me, Shiro and Grimmjow. We will clear out those rogue Menos." Ichimaru and Nel both gave Ichigo a nod and continued to work on Harribel, while the quartet prepared themselves for a fight.

"Tch, finally there is some action. I've been aching for a fight for so long! Yo Shiro let's see who kills the most!" grumbled Grimmjow, stretching his long legs with a maniacal grin.

"You're on Grimmjow. Ha! I bet you can't even handle one." taunted Shiro.

"Maybe I should wire in some Menos to do some experiments…hmmm." Szayel mumbled to himself.

"Let's go, we will show them who rules this place now. Let's give Hueco Mundo its King." Ichigo flared his reiatsu and with Zangetsu on hand, strutted out of Las Noches, ready to take over his new kingdom
