(OPENING 2: BLESS YoUr NAME by Choucho from Highschool DxD)
Volume 6: Chapter 22: Team Dragon Knight Arrives at Climax!
Previously in DKR:
Vasto Lorde Ichigo was too much for Super Shadow even with his limitless power but he's held back from hurting him. The end result was bad as Shadow stopped his devastating Cero but he lost his Super form. However, Wizard arrived and went all out with the Draco Timer. It still wasn't enough so he resulted with All Dragon and along with the Hope Ring's power and Shadow's Chaos energy, Wizard inflicted the blow he needed to use the Engage Ring and learned a few things, one is saving his comrade by destroying his horn. Ichigo was freed but also healed up instantly.
However, Haruto was out of mana and Shadow was too drained. Unopposed, Ulquiorra prepared to put an end to them… until he was stopped by the arrival of Yugi in his Balance Breaker form followed by the others. He proceeded to nearly beat him until the form ended. Trying to stop this peacefully, Ulquiorra declines Yugi's offer and the Dragon Knight is forced to fight him. But thanks to his even stronger base Yin-Yang Dragon mode, his friends helping him out and the Espada not at full strength; Yugi bet it all on Dragonaun Impact against Ulquiorra's Cero Oscuras. Refusing to give in to despair, Yugi went overdrive with his kick with Yin-Yang Dragon's powers and with all of his power; he not only defeated Ulquiorra but his attack that pierced through the ceiling of Las Noches and defeats the transformed Espada 0 Yammy.
Yugi won, hoping Ulquiorra learned what a heart is as he and Mew Ichigo had a nice moment…
However, this is far from over. With Ichigo rescued, will Team Dragon Knight be ready against the enemies fighting in fake Karakura Town? That is if they get out of Hueco Mundo.
What will happen next?
And now the conclusion... last left off:
Alone, badly wounded and unable to even move, Deep Blue is left lying on the sands of Hueco Mundo and bleeding. He gasps heavily, his chest showing the deep wounded claws of Yugi's Dragonaun Void Claw. He coughs out blood, still alive even with these wounds. He planned for this, wanting him to survive as a way of mercy. And it enrages him. He came back from the dead again, he gained a new form that surpassed all his power and defeated him in such a way that it was more like a humiliation.
''I-Impossible…'' Gritting his teeth at the fact that he still stood up to protect that cat, Deep Blue's eyes glow and shrink almost demonic as he can still imagine that thing that the Dragon Knight became. It was like he was facing him- No, it was him. No doubt.
''Damn it…'' He starts uttering out before he lets out a furious, hateful scream. ''DAMN YOU, SIR DRAGONAUN!''
Just screaming causes his wounds to resume bleeding out and yet he doesn't care. Deep Blue has never been so humiliated. Damn him and that cat.
''T-this… will not…'' He begins to vow, not going to die again as he tries to move only for a pair of feet to appear beside his head followed by a strange voice. ''Be the end?''
Deep Blue becomes alarmed, looking up to see Aigami, looking down at him and smiles, using the powers of the Quantum Cube to heal him instantly. This shocks him as he suddenly lifts himself up and looks at him.
''Better, no? That Aizen gave you a new body but it lacks what your old body could do and why Yugi was able to beat you with easy.'' Aigami begins to mock him at first before he immediately suggests with an evil smile. ''What if I could give you back a body similar to your old one, one even more powerful than this one.''
Deep Blue looks at this human in disbelief. He's still adjusting what he did to him to heal him but now he's offering a way he could gain a body best suited for him. This all seems too easy but at this point, it's better than dying.
''… What do you want?'' He questions him as Aigami smirks, pointing a hand behind him as a portal opens up. ''To help me reach the Plateau, the new world and destroy the old one.''
The alien hybrid looks at him, not understanding what he wants but if it means he can destroy Sir Dragonaun for good… then so be it. He takes a step forward as Aigami smiles and the two walk inside the portal, closing up instantly.
Yugi and Mew Ichigo continue looking up at the broken fake sky, admiring how beautiful the night sky is with this fake daylight environment. It's spectacular but in a higher form. He smiles, hoping he can enjoy this peace a little more.
Mew Ichigo looks at him and smirks seductively, grabbing Yugi's dragon tail to his surprise as she hugs it, cuddling it playfully. She can't control herself, wanting to play with her heroic dragon so badly.
''Here's a sneak peek to my hero's reward, Nya~'' She proclaims eagerly, proceeding to rub the tail's tip between her chest while purring hungrily for lust and heat. She even licks the tip of his tail seductively
Yugi blushes redder, growling excitedly as he stomps his foot multiple times; blood pumping by how sensitive he feels, never feeling anything like this before and yet he wants more of it. He forgot how horny he was for a long time and Ichigo was the same way. It's like their primal, beastly sides of them are turn up x10 and want the other so badly to-
''Um…'' Yugi and Mew Ichigo both widen their eyes, panicking as they turn around to see Rukia, Renji and Sado staring at them unease. Yugi laughs nervously, freaking out calmly while the cat girl explodes embarrassed, tossing the dragon tail away from her. ''W-WHERE DID ALL OF YOU COME FROM NYA?!''
''Um… You see-'' Renji tries to say something clever but his mind refuses to think of anything else but her tongue licking that tail. Rukia isn't even sure what to say either, finding it naughty to even talk about what they were even looking at.
''COUSIN ICHIGO-CHAN!'' The group blinks, looking up to see Sailor Moon waving her hand rapidly like a turbine as she's on top of Kojan's Susanoo. The Uchiha groans weakly, forced to overextend himself as he sets everyone he carries up above the ceiling down below.
''Oh um never mind!'' Rukia proclaims with relief that she doesn't need to continue the conversation.
Usagi leaps off and pounces, tackling Ichigo as she hugs her warmly while crying of joy.
''I MISSED YOU SO MUCH COUSIN! WE ALL DID!'' She yells out sobbing of joy, so happy to be reunited. The Mew Mew blushes red, looking down sad that she thought she would never see her or the others. She begins to shed a tear, hugging her back tightly.
The others smile, not realizing it has been that long for them to be reunited, having gone through a hell of a trip here.
After a moment longer, the two cousins pull away as Ichigo purrs, eyeing the others and apologizing to them for all that happened. ''I'm sorry for making you all worried about me Nya.''
''If it was any of us, our brave, reckless leader would save us too.'' Danny says with a small smirk. Yugi blushes red, scratching the back of his head.
''YEA! Because Yugi is the UNBEATABLE DRAGON KNIGHT!'' Ruby shouts out passionately, pointing her finger at the broken ceiling of Las Noches. She giggles as she found that so very awesome, like she should feel when the hero saves the day!
Nelliel can't help but agree, taken back that a human is capable of such power. Is this really the same Aizen spoke of?
Sonic eyes Yugi, just smiling, as he teases him. ''Not going to argue with her about that title huh?''
''For once, no.'' The tricolor head just responds with a small smirk, fine with that praise.
Ruby giggles until she lets out a deep yawn, feeling so drained as she expresses. ''I'm so tired!''
''No dud with that crazy lightshow you did.'' Judai speaks up to her confusion. ''Lightshow?''
He nods, having a feeling that she doesn't know it, and proceeds to inform her. ''Yea, your eyes shot out a strange light that seemingly petrified half of Ulquiorra's body, at least temporarily.''
Ruby looks confused, at first as stiff as a rock, before she widens her eyes and yells out in an outburst. ''I DID?!'' She rubs her eyes but feels nothing special. She even pulls out her Crimson Rose to look at her reflection and she looks the same as always, staring at her silver eyes.
''Oh yea, it was SO awesome!'' Naruto adds up with a grin with Ed sweat dropping. ''Doesn't explain how she did that.''
''I-I didn't know I could…'' She starts uttering, putting away her weapon as she's in disbelief. Ruby looks at her hands, more puzzled than anything in her life. Does she have special powers she's not aware of?
''We'll figure things out later, Ruby-kun.'' Yugi tells her, knowing this isn't the time to cover it but they will learn more about it. Ruby nods, really curious what this lightshow was. All she remembers was… the coldness of watching someone die. She frowns a bit, squeezing her hands tightly; not wanting to lose anyone else like that again.
"So…?'' Yugi eyes Mew Ichigo who smiles softly. ''Can we all go home now Nya?''
''Yup!'' He responds eagerly, wanting to go home too as he eyes his buddy. ''Jonouchi-kun, the phone.''
Jonouchi snickers, opening the backpack and pulls out the large walkie-talkie.
''Catch Yu-'' He declares, about to throw it like a football until nearly everyone yell at him furiously. ''DON'T THROW IT!'' Jonouchi nearly trips up but stops himself, panting heavily as he realizes his mistake.
''G-Good point.'' He says, walking over and handing it to Yugi who begins dialing on it.
Mew Ichigo uses this time to apologize again for all
''Nah, this was no problem!'' Sonic expresses with a small smirk, still finding fun.
''It was actually a dramatic adventure!'' Ryan then speaks up, never having a world-changing trip in his life. Alicia giggles as she tells Ichigo as a tease. ''Just next time, try to not get kidnapped.''
Mew Ichigo purrs giggling, just glad that-
''You owe me.'' Kaiba immediately announces, causing the cat girl to startle heavily and yells out anxiously. ''WHY THE HECK DO I OWE YOU NYA!''
''Like I said; you owe me.'' He affirms his words with a firm gaze, expecting her to keep the deal. The cat girl hisses madly as Honda tells her. ''Be thankful he's not making you his servant.''
Jonouchi nods in agreement.
''By the way…'' Haruto begins changing subjects while munching on scraps of doughnut pieces to restore a bit of his still empty mana pool. ''Who's this kid and his dinosaur pet?'' He points at Taichi and Agumon, eating the same doughnut pieces that he gave them since they looked hungry.
''I'm a Digimon!'' Agumon declares, chewing on the yummy bread-like food. Taichi grins at his partner as he introduces themselves with a hand wave. ''This is Agumon and you can call me Taichi!''
''Awesome partner!'' Judai expresses, petting the yellow tiny dinosaur who blushes happily. ''I'm Judai! Nice to meet you!'' Raising his hand for a fist pump. Taichi just smiles, fist pumping him.
''So where you found him?'' Danny asks Jonouchi who points upward with his right index finger ''The sky. He fell off from the sky.''
''Oh, me too!'' Ruby yelps out excitedly with Taichi blinks, wondering if it's a common thing for people to fall off from the sky.
Ed sweat drops heavily, uttering out sarcastically. ''Wonderful, another mystery we'll have to worry about.'' Ryan agrees with him, wondering why this is happening more recently.
''By the way…'' Mew Ichigo begins to change subject, eyeing Nelliel. ''Who's she Nya?''
''She does look familiar.'' Anzu says with Jonouchi and Honda humming, just as curious as they seem to have seen her before.
''Sorry, we didn't exactly have time to introduce ourselves. I'm Nelliel and you must be the one the Dragon Knight came to save right?'' The former Espada greets the cat girl, smiling as she's pretty heroic for helping them.
''It's nice to meet you too, Nelliel-chan! I'm Ichigo, Ichigo Momomiya!'' The cat girl greets her back, purring which causes Nelliel's face to turn red, looking back at Kurosaki and then back at her.
''OH!'' She yelps surprised as the cat girl smiles with a large sweat drop behind her head. ''Yea, I know. So, you're an Arrancar right?'' Recalling not anyone like her during her time here.
''And that skull looks very… familiar…'' Jonouchi mutters, eyeing the green hair's skull-like head. Huh? Now speaking about it, he does remember that green haired squirt who… who…
''… WAA! NO WAY!'' He yells out in a panic, finally recognizing her. ''IT'S THE SQUIRT WHO LIKED KUROSAKI?! AND SHE'S HOT NOW!'' His face turns bright red.
This causes the others who were not aware of this to lose it.
''HUH?! THAT'S NEL-CHAN?!'' Usagi yelps with big widened eyes while Ryan is speechless with rosy cheeks, forgetting about that with all the fighting they've done.
''Woah…'' Sonic utters, actually surprised by this reveal. Even Shadow has an expression of shock, not expecting that.
''THIS IS FUCKING UNFAIR!'' Dropping onto his knees, Edward punches his fist to the ground as he sobs angrily. ''HOW COME THE TINY BRAT GOT TO BE BIG BEFORE I DID?!''
''N-not the point!'' Honda yells out with Jonouchi argues at Ed's selfish nature. ''THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO CHIBIUSA! DON'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM US!''
Usagi sweat drops silently with Alicia sighing.
''NELLIEL-SAMA!'' The group turns to see the idiotic Arrancars running towards them, mainly towards the green haired beauty with tears dripping across their eyes. Nelliel can't help but smile, approaching them as she hugs them both who do the same, still sobbing passionately.
''Pesche. Dondochakka.'' She expresses calmly, so happy to remember them finally and thankful for keeping her safe.
''W-we thought we would never-'' The two try to speak but their tears stop them from their eyes. Nelliel just smiles, pulling away to look at their faces and just smiles warmly like she used to, telling them. ''I feel the same way. Thank you both, deeply.''
They continue sobbing, so happy to have her back.
Grimmjow scoffs a bit, trying to not show emotions as he's reminded of his own dead comrades.
The others watch smiling with people like Kaiba scoffing too as long as she's not their enemy and Kojan who tries to not be reminded of Keiko.
''Oi.'' Haruto turns to see Ichigo tossing the Wizard Ring at him who catches it. ''I don't need it.''
''… Suit yourself.'' Haruto responds, the first time someone didn't keep it but he won't argue about it. What he is concerned about is that he's not at all happy, likely due to that monster he became. Even Alicia notices he's not well and she can't blame him.
Kojan groans of annoyance, not wanting to hear any more of these conversations.
''Yugi, any luck-'' He begins to ask for the tricolor, having been waiting for a reply until finally the beep is heard and he speaks to that end. ''Urahara-kun!''
''Nice hearing back with you, Mutou-san. Seems the mission went well on your end?'' Urahara's voice echoes from the device. Yugi smiles as he answers him. ''Yea! We got Ichigo-kun and um…'' Trailing off as he eyes Orihime who blushes nervously with the others of Kurosaki's friends also taken back she was captured too.
''Inoue-san, right!'' Urahara responds, already fully aware of this. Yugi sweat drops with narrowed eyes, questioning him. ''… You had a feeling Aizen-kun was going to capture her, huh?''
''Oh ho-ho-ho… maybe.'' The former Shinigami laughs playfully though Yugi could tell he's upset about it too. Urahara couldn't do much to prevent this but he knew the kids would save her regardless.
''Well I'm not going to argue. We're ready to head out!'' The Dragon Knight declares with Mew Ichigo nodding rapidly, wanting to go back home right now.
''… About that…'' The cat girl groans by Urahara's sudden change of tone as he sighs. ''My apologies from my end, Mutou-san. Aizen-san got me this time.'' He explains that Aizen somehow locked any portals or methods to enter or leave Hueco Mundo. Meaning, they are stuck there.
''YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!'' Ed yells out in protest, not believing that man he could ACTUALLY block the only means of getting out from this damn dimension.
''So we're trapped here Nya?!'' Mew Ichigo utters, dropping to her knees with a freaked out expression.
''Not exactly but we must hurry. The Dark Lord has also made his move and-'' Urahara begins to explain about the Dark Lord's attack also happening and how to get them out of here but Yugi immediately interrupts him. ''No problem! I'll use Instant Transmission. I should be able to lock on Urahara-kun's aura and-''
''You can't do that, Yugi!'' Jonouchi immediately protests against that plan. Mew Ichigo agrees, standing up fast. ''If you use that move to teleport all of us out of here, it'll drain you badly Nya! You won't be able to fight!''
Yugi frowns, admitting that even though he trained to improve the Instant Transmission to use it multiple times; using it along with a lot of people will leave him bedridden again.
''Wait, what about Reverse Summoning?'' Ed then suggests, looking at Naruto. They use that to get out of Gluttony's stomach. If not for that, they would be screwed.
Naruto is about to agree but then he scowls, recalling what he asked the toad grandpa the time they did that and begins to tell Fullmetal and the others. ''It won't work with everyone at the same time. We would have to take multiple trips and I wouldn't be sure how we can get back here.''
Ed grunts, assuming they had a way out. Yugi sighs, not sure what else they could use to- It's then that an idea pops in his head as he turns to Nelliel and asks her. ''Um Nelliel-kun, are you able to make a Garganta?''
This surprises the former Espada, eyeing him and smiles. ''Yes, almost every Arrancar and all Espada are capable to form a Garganta…'' She soon frowns. ''But I'm still recovering from not having my original body for a long time.''
''Good idea though.'' Kojan speaks up. ''A Garganta would be the only method to travel through Hueco Mundo.''
''Hey, are you all listening to me? I-'' Urahara's voice trails from his end, having the means to get them out of there only for Kurosaki to speak up, staring at his Espada rival. ''Grimmjow, can you take us to Karakura?''
The 6th Espada gazes at him coldly, noticing that he's not even looking at him. It pisses him off, thinking Kurosaki thinks he's better than him due to that hidden power he has. He can't stop thinking about it; a form that annihilated the form above Resurreccion that Ulquiorra used. How can he even surpass Kurosaki if he can't even surpass Ulquiorra?! He's so below them.
''Good idea! In return, we'll let you fight Kurosaki-kun. No interruptions!'' Ed barges to that offer, causing Kurosaki to give him a narrow gaze with sweat drops. Yugi agrees with this as it's the fastest way to-
''Tempting deal…'' Grimmjow begins to speak up, looking at the girl as he grips on his right hand as red energy shines from it. ''But I got a better one.'' Curling his lips into a smirk, Grimmjow aims that hand at the group, rather below them, and fires multiple Balas onto the ground, blasting anyone near him away like flies while making a wall of energy between them.
Everyone nearly screams with Mew Ichigo forming a barrier along with Danny with what little ghost energy he has and Orihime.
''What are you doing, Grimmjow?!'' Kurosaki yells out madly, watching as the Espada forms a Garganta portal.
''Sorry but if I ever want to crush you at your best, I need more power. The same power Ulquiorra has but greater!'' Grimmjow proclaims with a smug grin, knowing who will reach such heights. ''And the Dark Lord will provide such power to me!''
Yugi panics heavily, about to leap through the flames but his body refuses due to the pain from his last attack. It is still recovering and he's too heavily drained to fight him. The others are in the same position, even Kojan who doesn't have his Sharingan eyes active.
''We'll meet again, Kurosaki!'' Grimmjow vows, laughing as he walks inside the pitch black portal.
''Grimmjow!'' Kurosaki still yells, gasping as his body is still not tip-top shaped. The Espada's laughs still echo until the Garganta portal closes up instantly, vanishing altogether.
The group are left shocked with Mew Ichigo sighing, muttering out annoyed. ''Never trust a panther, especially him Nya.''
''And we're stuck here!'' Ruby argues about their situation. Jonouchi sighs, lowering his head with Kaiba glared and irritated. ''Well great job. We are all greatly screwed.'' Shadow agrees, not sure what else they could do about-
''Hello?!'' Everyone blinks as Yugi looks at the walkie-talkie and raises it to his ear, responding. ''Urahara-kun? Sorry, we had a plan but our ticket out left.''
''As I was saying; I was hearing your numerous complains but you have nothing to be concerned about.'' Urahara's voice replies from his end, almost snickering.
''What do you mean by that, Urahara-san?'' The star-headed young man questions him until Urahara snickers and hangs up. Yugi blinks awkwardly, really confused by what-
''Because I am your ticket out of this world.'' The group blink, turning and see in shock by the appearance of the trench coat masked knight man.
''You!'' Kojan utters angrily with Yugi smiling. ''Shadow Knight-kun!''
Mew Ichigo then eyes Yugi and then the masked knight, wondering if maybe he trained Yugi? It would make sense.
Yugi tries to approach him but Kojan pushes past him and threatens the masked knight with his raised blade. ''What have you done to Raidy!''
Mew Plum startles as she realizes that he's referring to his Manectric. She smiles that he cares for her.
''I was taking care of her. She's fine and misses you.'' Shadow Knight responds calmly. Kojan still glares, glad to hear it which Mew Plum giggles at his rather cute expression.
''How the heck did you get here?!'' Naruto utters in an outburst. The masked knight looks at him and begins to answer. ''I asked a…'' He quickly pauses and lets out a small chuckle, correcting his phrase. ''An acquaintance to help me out.''
Yugi raises an eyebrow, wondering who could be capable of doing that.
''Awesome. Hopefully we're not needed-'' Danny begins to say, thinking they don't have to do much fighting but Shadow Knight shakes his head, interrupting him. ''Aizen-kun and Darkus-kun are about to get rid of the Captains so they can settle their score.'' He turns his sight to Edward. ''And Colonel Mustang-kun is there too.''
Fullmetal startles that the colonel is there, actually willingly to fight these ridiculous, overpowered beings like that. Even he wishes he wasn't part of this.
''Darkus?'' Mew Ichigo utters confused as Yugi forgot to tell the others about the Dark Lord's real name.
''Be surprise.'' Shadow Knight just tells her, almost snickering at her confusion. He coughs as he then says, reaching into his cloak. ''But first.'' He pulls out a small pouch and pulls out a strange green bean. He flicks it towards Yugi who barely catches it and tells him. ''Eat it.''
Yugi looks at the bean and blinks more confused. ''A green bean?''
''It's grown in a special place in the world. They are referred to as Senzu Beans.'' The masked knight informs the Dragon Knight. ''They can restore one's strength. Now eat it.''
Yugi hums, wondering how a bean like that could- Eh, he doesn't have a choice as his body is too weak.
''Alright. Nee-san always tells me to eat my vegetables.'' He proclaims with a cackling smile, causing Mew Plum to sweat drop. ''Not by a stranger no less a single bean woof!''
Yugi ignores that as he slides the bean into his mouth and chews it before swallowing it whole. It takes less than a moment before his eyes widen and a burst of energy overflows his body. It's like his body was just fully recharged as he flaps his wings and his aura erupts with power, so dense and great that Kojan felt it and he's paralyzed by shock by this immense power. Not just him but Yin-Yang Dragon roars mentally.
''THIS FEELS AWESOME!'' Yin Dragon roars passionately with Yang Dragon smiling joyfully, never this refresh so quickly yet incredible. ''We're all back at full power, probably even more!''
Yugi agrees, noticing his wounds and fatigue he once had been all but gone like he's back to full strength, maybe even better than when he arrived at Hueco Mundo.
Shadow Knight as he tosses a few more beans to Kojan, Mew Ichigo and the others, mainly those of Team Dragon Knight who have powers or can fight for the next battle. Each one looks at the strange bean, hesitating at first but since Yugi tried it and looks great; they should try it too.
Mew Ichigo is the first to take a bite of the bean, eating it before her eyes widened, sparkling, before she leaps around rapidly, dashing through around before landing beside Yugi, twirling and doing her cat arm pose with a wink.
''WOAH!'' Ruby yelps emotionally, jumping up and down by this rush of energy she has now. It's not just her but Usagi feels fully charged of magic as does Haruto, Naruto is suddenly back in Sage Mode like it was nothing, even Kurosaki feels his Spiritual Energy at full max again. Kojan clenches his right hand, sparks flying out as he's also back at full strength.
''Mom wasn't kidding about eating one's vegetables!'' Danny declares out loud, needing to tell Dad to eat his too.
''You guys feel that good?'' Jonouchi asks, pretty clueless yet curious. Ed just nods, stretching as he's never felt so flexible in a long time. Alicia shows the others as her body erupts in blue flames as they dissolve to reveal she's in in her Valkyria form, back at full strength as she smiles. ''Very good!''
''Yea, all my strength is also-'' Kurosaki agrees with her until Shadow Knight notices his Shinigami robes were still damaged so he approaches him. ''One moment.'' He warns him as he waves his hand and Kurosaki is suddenly covered in shadow-like energy.
''OI, WHAT THE-'' He starts to yell out until the shadows fade away and reveals his Bankai clothes have been restored like they were never damaged. ''What the hell! My clothes!''
''Better.'' Shadow Knight proclaims as now he looks more presentable, physically at least.
''Awesome! You're really amazing Nya!'' Mew Ichigo expresses astonishment by the knight's ability and his items. Shadow Knight looks at her, rather silent at first almost in a pause of thought, before he answers her in somber. ''… You and the others are more amazing.''
The cat girl blinks, looking innocent as that tone of his voice felt… sad, really sad.
''Yugi, are you ready to confront the enemy?'' The masked knight then asks the Dragon Knight who smirks. ''Yup! I made a vow to take Ichigo-kun home but first I'll deal with Aizen-kun.''
Kurosaki doesn't say much, looking down seriously.
''Nelliel-chan, you guys should-'' Naruto begins to suggest it to her but Nelliel just smiles, shaking her head. This gets Ichigo's attention, protesting in shock. ''W-why Nel?''
''Sorry, Ichi, but I must stay here.'' She apologizes, wishing to come with them but someone should remain to not let Aizen to manipulate anymore of her kind and this is her home. She still has good memories, as her true self and even her child self.
''This is still my home and I wish to protect it just as much as you wish to protect yours.'' She expresses kindly, needing to be here but she won't forget them. ''But if you all ever visited, I'll make it up to you all.''
Kurosaki just frowns, respecting her decision while Yugi proclaims with a smile. ''Come and visit us too!''
Nelliel smiles back, nodding.
"Then I'll have my acquaintance teleport your group to fight the enemy and the others away from the fighting.'' Shadow Knight proclaims as he looks at Yugi's group and then at the others who won't fight.
''How does this pal of yours intend to do if we're locked from-'' Ryan begins to question the strange man until suddenly a strange silver colored, watery effect, mirror portal of sorts manifests out of thin air and swallows Yugi's group. This shocks Jonouchi and the others as they are immediately swallowed by a second one that came out of nowhere too,
Nelliel and her Arrancars are left silent while Shadow Knight snickers a bit, commenting. ''Heh, at least he isn't your enemy, yet.''
Shadow Knight looks at the former Espada and bows before he vanishes instantly before her. Nelliel and her Arrancars stare at the spot everyone vanishes and smile, thankful to have met them and hoping to repay them back. But first, she has training to do.
Commercial Break:
Things were not great in the Fake Karakura Town. With the Dark Lord's forces also attacking the Gotei 13, the fighting went badly for them while Aizen's forces were also damaged but at least his main Espadas were still around. Even with the Visoreds arrival; it became a hopeless battle due to Darkus's forces still overpowering them.
Mustang watches with a scowl as Shinji's big play with his Shikai fails due to Aizen's intelligence in figuring out the ability.
"You know, I kinda wish you kept your mouth shut so you didn't reveal your trump card to the guy who's a damn genius!'' Mustang argues on the former Shinigami's ''BRILLIANT'' tactic. Shinji gives him a stunned look before proclaiming. ''Ah come on Roy, I thought Aizen would be stomped. You heard about this Kira? He seems to be a master genius compared to-''
''I do have ears.'' The two startle, turning around to see Aizen hovering above them, smiling softly. ''You amuse me that you would oppose me again, Captain Hirako, but all you've shown is that I was always meant for more than to be your lieutenant. To be above someone as weak as you.''
Shinji glares calmly before calling him back. ''You always thought you were better than anyone else!''
''And yet, I am above you all.'' Aizen states, ensuring his position is above the heavens themselves. Mustang gazes irritated towards him, uttering out. ''Takao would never-''
''And yet he's gone.'' Aizen proclaims with a small frown, wishing he was here; to see him transcend what he called insane. ''He would understand why I'm doing this but he would likely oppose me like back then.''
''Well if he was alive, I would have killed him by now!'' Darkus growls, overhearing their confrontation while he looks down at the remains of that mindless Arrancar, Wonderweiss, that the Head Captain beaten down to a pulp until it was revealed he absorbed Yamamoto's flames and was about to unleash them all. The old man used his body to tank the full force of his flames from destroying the whole city. The Dark Lord is greatly disappointed, dealing with those Visored weaklings.
''Once I'm done with these damn flies, I'll go take his Zanpakuto and kill Aizen and every last one of you with it!'' The Dark Lord roars viciously.
''Like hell!'' Mustang shouts, about to snap his fingers only for Aizen to suddenly appear in front of him, smirking as he stabs his sword through his left shoulder. The Colonel widens his eyes, gasping in pain as the former Shinigami pins him to the wall of a building as his screams intensifies. Armstrong dashes to stop this only to get slapped by Darkus' tail, sending him flying into multiple buildings.
''Colonel!'' Hawkeye yells as she takes aim with her sniper. Havoc panics, taking aim too as they both fire their shots at the same time, moving in fast right to Aizen's head… until an extended blade suddenly intercepts the shots and cuts down the bullets. This shocks the two as Gin was the one who cut the bullets. He turns to the direction of the shots and smirks, wagging his finger, further shocking them that he knew about them
''Oh? Snipers? Interesting but I saw this coming.'' Aizen proclaims, figuring something like this could happen as he jabs his sword deeper into Mustang's shoulder, causing him to anguish further. ''You really believe shooting me down would actually work. Probably, though a shame I have Gin and Tosen guarding my blind spots but better.''
Shinji hisses madly as not even their plan worked. He tries to charge at him but Gin intercepts again, smirking and wagging his finger at him.
''Now then, Roy Mustang.'' Aizen begins to proclaim as Mustang looks at him in pain as he yells at him pulling his sword out of his shoulder and raises it above his head. ''It's been a-'' Suddenly a black boot appears out of thin air and kicks Aizen across the face if he doesn't guard with his right forearm within a second of seeing the kick. The impact still sends the former Shinigami crashing through a building.
Roy pants as the figure lands on all fours, revealed to be a black haired female wearing a black dress outfit similar to Mew Ichigo but wearing a long pink scarf and a pink ribbon bell on her tail.
''Just barely made it Nya.'' She proclaims, turning around as her pink eyes shine towards him. Mustang cracks a small smirk, not thinking he would see her again. Shinji grins, almost not seeing her in a long time either.
''Heh, you're a face I haven't seen in a long time, Azumi.'' Mustang proclaims, not seeing this face in a long time as he snickers. ''So you and Noda finally going to get a kid or still the same lovely birds from back then.''
"Still the charmer, Roy.'' Hime utters with a deep sigh. ''I hope you and Riza are a thing now.''
''…'' Mustang looks away, grunting. Hime sees this and grows a big smile, sticking out a cat tooth as she taunts him. ''Oh, you are a poor fool Nya. Honestly, you-''
''You still hit hard.'' The two panic as Shinji also turns worryingly to see Aizen strolling out of the building he was kicked through, smiling as he barely if not taken any sort of damage. He stares at the black haired cat girl, commenting. ''Another old face. You were a 10-year-old when we met, Hime Azumi.''
''12 actually.'' Hime corrects him, getting on all fours with his right hand clenched like a cat claw. Aizen smirks, ordering Gin. ''Watch above us Gin. I want these 3 on my own.''
Gin smirks, never seeing him so eager. Best not argue as he flies up. Shinji glares as the three engage Aizen who clashes them Momo watches this fight from afar, her breathing intensives. Rangiku pants, badly hurt while the Tres Bestias were ordered by Harribel to not fight yet after how the Dark Lord's forces dealt with them.
Mustang continues snapping flames that Aizen evades around them with ease as well as sword swings from Shinji and Hime's kicks. He's not even looking at them and he's avoiding such weak moves nonetheless.
''I'm not concerned if I have to fight 3 or 12 of you.'' Aizen proclaims confidently as he smiles, backing away. ''It is completely hopeless to oppose me.''
Mustang stares at him and he just smiles to Aizen's confusion.
''Then I guess you forgot what those two told us…'' Mustang begins to say, thinking of Takao and Minato, as Hime charges forward. ''Teamwork…''
Aizen smirks as he prepares to- Suddenly the ground shapes and large man statues of Armstrong emerge on each of his side, pinning him. He watches Hime coming at him with a kick but Aizen cuts through the statues to slash her only to see Shinji twirling Sakanade around by its ring bottom hilt. Aizen soon widens his eyes as he's looking at-
It was too late as Aizen is kicked across his back, seeing everything in reverse as Hime follows with a punch and then launches him across where he's soon slashed across the gut by Shinji's sword. He smirks, finishing their declaration about Teamwork. ''It always works. You were never the team player-''
He narrows his eyes and widens them in horror as does Hime and especially Mustang as the one that Shinji slash was not Aizen… it was Riza dropping onto the ground wounded.
''What the-'' Shinji utters in horror, turning to see the actual Aizen right in front of him and he smirks, nearly slashing him if he doesn't dodge with Shunpo.
''H-HAWKEYE!'' Mustang screams in horror, running to her aid as he checks her wounds. She gasps, biting her mouth still bleeding. ''C-Colonel… I'm…'' She drops unconscious to Mustang's dismay.
Hime doesn't understand. They were clearly Aizen all this time… unless… She soon gasps as Aizen suddenly tosses Havoc in front of them, panting as he's bleeding across his chest. Not a deep wound but good enough that he won't become a nuisance. Aizen looks to the left, where he firmly knocks out Armstrong for good for that little statue trick.
''When?!'' Shinji demands angrily, looking down at the man in the air. Aizen just smiles rather amused, questioning that phrase. ''When? What an interesting question.''
''I said when did you activate Kyoka Suigetsu?!'' Shinji yells madder. Aizen still smiles as he responds. ''Now that is funny…'' He soon frowns ominously, looking coldly towards him. ''When were you under the impression I wasn't using my Kyoka Suigetsu?''
Shinji widens his eyes in horror. Does that mean they were all under his illusion all this time?
''YOU DAMN BASTARD!'' Mustang explodes furiously, snapping his flames at him directly but Aizen brushes them aside with his intense Spiritual Pressure, causing all 3 to be locked in place.
''Your flames could never harm me back then and they won't now.'' Aizen proclaims still coldly, now frowning as this fight has become boring. Instead, he insinuates their logic to oppose him. ''Tell me, are you that strongly against someone such as I? And yet you support someone like Takao, a dead man, no less his son who-''
''Takao, Miyu… and Yugi…'' Aizen is interrupted as he turns to Shinji, glaring madly at him. ''They see the good in people. Naïve but strong hearted just like Ichigo.'' He grits his teeth, yelling at him demandingly. ''What's wrong thinking like that?!''
Aizen looks at him, narrowing his eyes as for a moment he was looking… in his past. That night, the day of the birth of the Visored, the day he placed the crime on Urahara Kisuke… and the day he clashed blades against his friend. He can still recall what Takao said to him and a simple word: Why?
''… Kindness cannot change the world. It has no power, no force.'' He answers him before he smiles calmly, approaching them with his blade on his side. ''And the dead don't speak either.''
Shinji glares unease, still not able to move or Hime and the enraged Mustang. Aizen prepares to strike them down until a voice calls out to him. ''Stop!''
Aizen oddly does, silent as he doesn't bother to turn up where Momo is floating above them, looking distressed.
''… Momo, I'm surprised to see you here.'' Aizen simply says, narrowing the corner of his eye towards her direction. His former lieutenant just looks at him, not seeing the man she admired deeply, the one she loved and yet she hopes maybe… maybe he is in there.
''Please… stop.'' She tries to ask him peacefully. Aizen just smirks at her declaration and immediately questions her. ''Will you strike me down? For the better good? Or is that better good not what you want?''
Momo staggers, looking away. As bad if not villainous for all he's done; a part of her still misses him, misses her captain who cared for others. Was that man just an illusion or was he always in there.
''… I…'' She tries uttering out, trying to breathe calmly before she responds from her heart. ''I still… care for you, Captain Aizen.''
Aizen does not respond, simply standing there. Hime looks at him, no emotion whatsoever so why is he listening?
''Because you cared for me but…'' Momo tries to say only to look down sadly. ''That all was a lie, wasn't it? But it can't be right? Shiro and I, so many people… we admired you and you never thought one thing about us? Or maybe you have. Maybe… you do care.''
No response from him again.
''But I'm asking you, this once…'' Momo pleads to whatever goodness he has in there, bowing down politely. ''No more, please. No more killing. No more fighting.''
Aizen looks at her and just cracks a small smile. ''… As you wish; I won't kill anyone this once.''
Momo raises her head in shock, blushing that maybe he-
Aizen shows one moment of sadness in his smile before he ultimately orders his most trusted servant. ''Gin… put her down gently.''
Momo widens her eyes in horror as do the others. Shinji grits his teeth, trying to break free fast but he isn't going to make it.
''Of course, Captain.'' Gin responds with a smile, already taking aim with his Zanpakuto from his end and utters out kindly. ''Sayonara.'' He unleashes Shinso as his blade extends and moves insanely fast at the stunned Momo, just turning around to see the blade about to impale her.
As they are being teleported back to Earth, Yugi feels something in a single second and raises his left index and middle finger over his forehead. Mew Ichigo notices this and utters. ''Yugi-kun?''
Yugi eyes them and smirks softly, telling them happily. ''See you all there!'' He becomes serious as he vanishes, using Instant Transmission to reach the other side faster to that aura signal.
A second passes as Momo is about to be stabbed until a blade swings and actually clashes against the thrusting sword like a wall. Gin actually opens his eyes as his Zanpakuto shatters into pieces by the sharpness of the Dragon Blade. Everyone watches speechless, except Aizen and Darkus with a smug grin, as floating to protect Momo is Yugi, his dragon wings spread wide and his front hair covering most of his face except his left dragon eye as it glows menacingly yet brightly like a burning star.
Mustang is speechless, for a moment seeing Takao and Miyu in him as did Hime, smiling.
''Heh, wondering when those kids would show up.'' Shinji proclaims with a small smirk, breathing deeply of relief.
Momo is speechless as Yugi turns around, eyeing her and smiles, asking her. ''Are you okay?''
''Y-Yes…'' The young Shinigami utters out, still taken back by his arrival. Is this really the Dragon Knight that Toshiro told her about? Yugi looks at her and still smiles, asking her kindly. ''Good! Please get away from the battlefield and everyone else who can't fight too.''
Momo looks at him, mesmerized as she just nods before vanishing away with Shunpo, reaching for her wounded comrades.
Yugi still smiles until he hears Aizen's voice. ''So you've came…'' Frowning serious, he turns around and gazes at the humorous smile of Aizen who stares back at the human with dragon features. ''Dragon Knight Yugi Mutou-kun.'' He can't stop looking at this form, hearing the legends that a true Dragon Knight is one closer to Draconic Power.
''Sorry I came late but could you give me a moment.'' Aizen is startled by Yugi's request, smirking as he flies fast. Aizen tracks him down as Yugi lands on top of the rooftop as the reflecting mirror portal opens up above him and emerging from it is everyone else, managing to land right beside him. The joyful Mew Ichigo, the firm Kojan, the calm Sage Mode Naruto, the eager Judai, the confident Danny, the fiery Alicia, the brave Sailor Moon, the cold Shadow, the energetic Sonic, the annoyed Ed, the determined Ryan, the resolved Ruby, the swag Kamen Rider Wizard, the courageous Taichi and Agumon, and the serious Kurosaki; Team Dragon Knight have assembled!
Everyone watches this with Sasuke's eyes gazing towards Naruto, Selvaria staring at Alicia and Metal Sonic twitching robotically towards Sonic. Starrk frowns to see the kid from before and Harribel closes her eyes as she expected to see Ichigo here.
Another portal also opens up at the same time that Jonouchi and everyone else who can't fight or won't emerge. Kaiba scoffs, not interested in getting his hands dirty especially since these foes are not ones he wants to tangle with.
''Yugi, everyone.'' Jonouchi begins to say, watching them from afar as he and the others will cheer for them to kick all kinds of butt.
Darkus watches this and smirks, happy to see his niece safe… and smirks to see Kojan there too. Oh karma really does exist.
''Interesting.'' Aizen comments, still smiling at Yugi's group but most of all even able to arrive here. ''You never cease to amaze me. To escape the locked Hueco Mundo must have required a miracle.''
''Nope!'' Yugi protests rather carelessly before he becomes serious. ''It requires just how much you've irritated us off!''
Aizen just smirks at this newfound determination across his eyes; much stronger and brighter than ever. Maybe now he may provide a challenge.
Mew Ichigo is about to say something too until she looks down and widens her eyes. She suddenly leaps down fast, alarming themselves as they look down to see the cat girl landing in front of Mustang and Armstrong, both hurt but not as bad as Lieutenant Hawkeye and Havoc. Ichigo checks on their wounds and smiles, manifesting her Strawberry Bell to heal them. Yugi smiles, glad they did make it back, though he can feel much tension from their auras, especially Mustang's. Almost a depressing feeling like-
"Heh, I was wondering when you would show up, brat!'' Forced to ignore these thoughts, Yugi looks ahead and gazes right towards the Dark Lord, surprised. Not that he's here; he knows he was here but the form he has is completely different. No, more than that as Yugi sweats; he's stronger than before. The others notice him, the majority of the group also surprised by his-
''IS THAT A BLACK DRAGON MAN?!'' Ruby screams out in shock. She then pauses as his eyes look familiar but she can't remember.
''So that's…'' Ryan utters, realizing who this is as does Wizard, scoffing. ''The infamous Dark Lord.''
Darkus glares at the rider as he doesn't look like Kuuga. So this is just another pest he'll-
''A Digimon!'' Taichi proclaims loudly, causing the Dark Lord to snap as he roars. ''I AM NOT SOME-'' He pauses to stare at the kid and Agumon, frowning puzzled as he recognizes the kid from somewhere but he's not sure.
''Where have I seen him before?'' He inquires mentally as his tail wags annoyed by this.
''Why are you here Nya?!'' Mew Ichigo then demands madly, already upset at Aizen but now he's here too while healing both injured humans.
''…'' Darkus looks at her silently as a part of him is just happy to see her. He tries to smile but evilly as he proclaims cockily. ''No reason but I have no interest in fighting Yugi today.'' His dragon eyes narrow towards Kojan. ''However, that Uchiha I want to kill.''
Kojan raises an eyebrow, uttering annoyed. ''Me? We barely even met.''
''Why the hell is Lizard Breath even doing here?'' Jonouchi asks the others with him, very confused. Darkus heard him from afar, snapping as he roared madly in that direction. ''THAT'S ANOTHER THING!''
The others away from the fighting freak out that he heard him as did the main group.
''You will no longer refer to me as Dark Leader Dragon or that stupid name! I am now THE Dark Lord, Darkus the Destruction Dragon!'' Darkus announces proudly. Yugi hums, wondering why he went by the other name if his real one is much more intimate. The others, however…
''… The hell?'' Naruto utters, so very confused like Judai.
''First was Dark Leader Dragon, then Lizard Breath and now Darkus. Seriously?'' Edward asks, just as puzzled with Danny telling annoyed. ''Make up your mind, dude!''
''THAT SECOND NAME WAS NOT MINE; IT WAS WHAT YOU FOOLS WERE CALLING ME!'' Darkus roars furiously, pointing his claw at them. Alicia sweat drops, certain he hates that Lizard Breath nickname.
''No matter, I'm here to kill one so-called Dragon Knight and then devour that damn-'' Darkus begins to proclaim, trying to refer to Aizen only for an explosion of Getsuga Tensho erupts behind them. They all turn as if it's Kurosaki, somehow bypassing everyone to attack Aizen behind his back.
''HHAWWW!'' Kurosaki roars, pouring his full Getsuga upon him but it is blocked and reflected by a very small green octagon-shaped barrier that repels the attack easily.
Aizen smirks softly with both hands in his coat as he proclaims calmly. ''Millon Escudo; my perfect defense for any creature's greatest blind spot.'' He turns around, gazing at the stunned Kurosaki as he says very amused to see him. ''Ichigo Kurosaki, I'm content that you went for the kill but it seems you lacked the power to do it. Why?''
Ichigo widens his eyes as Aizen questions the young man if he had used his Hollowfication in that single, important attack; he might have won.
''Try again. Then I will show you how arrogant your thoughts are.'' Aizen taunts the young man, daring him to go all out. Ichigo snaps, raising his left hand and clenches it as black swirls of energy forms and his Hollow Mask manifests. However, it was different as the former stripes across the left half of the mask have vanished and were now replaced with two thick vertical red stripes, each on one half of the mask, which are interrupted by the widened eye-holes and the jaw.
''His Hollow Mask changed!'' Judai points this out with Wizard noticing how familiar it is to that form.
Kurosaki staggers for a moment by how heavy the Hollow Mask feels but ignores it, charging up another yet stronger Getsuga and swings it both his hands but in the moment of the energy wave about to connect and washes the target; Aizen vanishes in that moment right above it.
Aizen, humorous, continues mocking that his attacks will ever land and Ichigo refuses to let that stop him, swinging another Getsuga after another only for each hit to be dodged in that instant. The Hollow Mask vanishes as Ichigo realizes he can't hit him.
Once more amused as he sees through him, Aizen questions if Ichigo is afraid of getting close to him. This hesitation gets to the Substitute Shinigami, protesting as he is not afraid of him. Aizen, however, just smiles as the boy can't lie to him.
''See?'' Aizen begins to say as he suddenly appears right in front of Ichigo, touching his bare chest with his left hand all while Ichigo is paralyzed in horror. ''I can even reach your heart just like this.''
''… This guy really is messed up.'' Danny just utters out, realizing how terrifying he is. He moves so fast that none of them notice him do so, well except for Kojan but even he is shocked by his movement.
Ichigo immediately backs away fast only for Aizen to mock him for being afraid to be near him.
''Why do you fight me when your friends are all safe?'' Aizen then questions him, causing Ichigo to stagger again. Aizen goes to say that Ichigo has no grudges towards him, that Orihime and all of his friends are safe; probing if fighting him is even right or wrong all while not even looking at him but the blue sky horizon.
''Can you really hate me in the bottom of your heart?'' He ultimately asks him, wondering if he really wants to do this as his eyes narrow towards him or rather towards his very vulnerable soul. ''You're just fighting out of a sense of responsibility. Admit it.''
Speechless as a part of him does question this, Kurosaki begins to lower his blade until Yugi suddenly appears right in front of him and answers honestly to the former Shinigami. ''I don't hate you, Aizen-kun.''
Ichigo startles as the star-headed boy smiles at the villain and begins to express. ''In fact, I should be grateful for letting me push my limits to save Ichigo-kun and protect my friends better…'' He soon becomes a bit serious, gazing at him as he proclaims. ''And that's why I won't let you kill innocent people who did nothing wrong. They live their lives happily. They don't deserve being a sacrifice for your stupid key!''
The Dragon Knight raises his blade, pointing it at Aizen as he vows determinedly. ''And that's why I will protect the world and save as many as I can, no matter the risk or the threat! I know…''
He pauses, remembering the lessons of his parents and the hopes they passed onto him with Yugi declaring passionately. ''I can save anyone I see and protect a future worth living in, with my blade, Ichigo-kun and all of my friends beside me! And I'll do it without hatred or the need to kill you. That is who the Dragon Knight is!''
Kurosaki is silent while Mustang smirks, almost seeing Takao through him.
Aizen smiles, reminded so much of him too as he announces. ''Then you will have to get through my army first.''
Yugi just smirks, declaring determinedly. ''No problem!'' He turns to the others and smiles, ordering them. ''Let's go, Team Dragon Knight!''
''You bet Nya!'' Leaping up back with the others, Mew Ichigo responds, gazing towards the direction of the 3rd Espada and deep down, she needs to stop her from not risking her life for Aizen because she cares for her. ''I also want to protect those I cherish in my heart.'' She eyes the girls and asks them, smiling. ''Alicia, Cousin Usagi, Ruby; help me out Nya!''
The three girls smile, nodding. Kojan scoffs as he proclaims. ''You heard him. Go-'' He's interrupted by the others dashing off past him, grunting that he was clearly being ignored.
Barragan, already in his Resurreccion form, watches them and can't help but scoff at their foolishness, especially that so-called Dragon Knight. He, defeating Aizen? Nonsense. He will be the one to do so.
''Childish brat. He thinks he can beat Aizen. Unthinkable. I will be the one to do so.'' The 2nd Espada proclaims confidently.
''Is that so huh?'' Barragan widens his eyes, looking down to see Shadow approaching him slowly from on top of a rooftop, glaring firmly towards him. ''Then I'll be your opponent.''
The skeleton Arrancar scoffs at this creature, declaring coldly. ''Cocky animal.''
Darkus smirks at Yugi's declaration so only fair he has his small force dealing with them too.
''Executioners, deal with Team Dragon Knight!'' He orders them as Metal Sonic doesn't need to be told twice.
Mew Ichigo and her group advances across rooftops until they are stopped by a torrent of blue flames.
''Blue flames?!'' The cat girl utters alarmed as Sailor Moon looks at Alicia but she shakes her head. ''Those weren't-''
''Those were mine.'' A familiar voice announces, shocking Alicia. She and the also shocked Mew Ichigo turn to look towards the flames as a figure emerges from them. They widen their eyes as emerging from those flames is Selvaria, standing in their way.
''N-no way Nya…'' The cat girl utters in alarmed as Alicia is paralyzed as if staring at a ghost. ''S-Selvaria?''
Sailor Moon and Ruby are the most confused, able to tell this woman is a Valkyrie too but how?
Naruto and his group of Judai, Ed and Ryan rush to help Danny or Shadow with their foes. Suddenly, Naruto stops in his tracks as his ability to sense another's Chakra in Sage Mode detects a familiar but darker Chakra. Judai notices this and tries to snap him out. ''Come on Naruto, we-''
Out of reflex, Naruto quickly pushes Judai out of the way as does himself as a lightning-like extending spear nearly stabs them. Judai hits the ground but somersaults backwards on his feet, rubbing his shoulder as he felt that, again.
''OH GEEZ! Almost had my shoulder pierced-'' He begins to say, trying to chuckle until his eyes widen. ''By a lightning attack…'' Now this feels like Deja-vu as the group turns and the one who nearly hits both is Sasuke with a new outfit and look.
''No way…'' Ed utters in disbelief that it's this guy again while Naruto can't even believe it. ''S-Sasuke?''
Starrk sighs, dealing with 1 less Shinigami but now he has-
''What's up?!'' Sonic calls out to the Primera Espada, snickering. ''So what's your name-'' He's suddenly bashed by a blur, smacking him and pummeling him through a building. Danny becomes alarmed as the two blurs shoot out, clashing head-to-head and soon the two pull back to reveal Sonic being one but the other.
''That's-'' He utters out as if it is Metal Sonic, his eyes glowing menacingly.
''Man, it's been a while Metal!'' Sonic taunts him with a small grin, only making the robotic doppelganger to narrow its eyes even more madder before charging at him and they engage. Starrk sweat drops, sighing as he turns his sight towards the Shinigami he was fighting.
Kurosaki looks at all the fights already happening and can't help but feel helpless in not helping any of them.
''Everyone is-'' He begins to utter, squeezing the grip of his blade but Yugi tells him. ''Trust them! They got this!''
He turns towards Aizen, smiling, as the star-headed young man tells his fellow knight. ''I got Aizen-kun! Kojan-kun-''
''He's a step ahead of you!'' Kojan yells as he's suddenly attacked by the Dark Lord, slamming his claw that he's blocking with his twin blades into a building all while roaring. ''DIE!''
Sweat dropping as he's pretty sure Kojan got this, Yugi flies off like a rocket towards Aizen only for a blade to nearly behead him if he doesn't twirl around rapidly and flies away to stare at his attacker. ''You're…'' He begins to utter as it was Tosen, having the same firm expression from back then.
''We cross blades again, Dragon Knight.'' Tosen proclaims, raising his blade towards him. Yugi stares firmly, going to have to fight him first.
Aizen smirks confidently towards Kurosaki who glares madly, charging at him only for his Tensa Zangetsu to be grabbed and gripped by Dark General Knight. This shocks the Substitute Shinigami and even Gin who was going to intercept him.
''You!'' Kurosaki utters, frustrated as he doesn't have time to fight him. The dark armored knight looks at him, directly at his eyes and sees nothing but doubt in them than that fiery spirit of a warrior.
''It seems something happen with that warrior spirit of yours, child.'' He proclaims, able to tell the boy will not even be able to fight anyone the way he is. He grunts as he bashes his free hand across his chest and blasts him away from Aizen, crashing onto a rooftop. Ichigo grunts, getting up madly as the dark knight lands in front of him, raising his great sword towards him.
''Best I remind you of such strength by crushing you entirely.'' He declares, coming at him slowly. Kurosaki glares, gripping his blade with both hands before charging right at him.
Arkham watches all of this playing out and can't help but snicker, finding all of this all so fascinating for research.
''Things will surely get more interesting now.'' He expresses eagerness to see wonderful results now. Evangeline narrows her eyes towards Mew Ichigo, giggling to see if she's grown too.
Will Team Dragon Knight do well against this 2-way assault of foes?
To be continued…
(ENDING 2: Vision by Kuso Iinkai from Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V)
Next Time…
As Team Dragon Knight in teams engage Aizen's remaining Espadas or the Dark Lord's Executioners; Shadow and Ed confront Barragan, the 2nd Espada. Will his power to decay all work against the immortal black hedgehog?
Jonouchi: Great, so many damn enemies that I'm not sure if Yugi and the others handle such odds.
Honda: Y-Yea.
Anzu: That's not going to stop them or us from cheering them all on!
Ed eyes Shadow: So um I'm not against beating up an old man but-
Shadow: I got this one, alone. Next time in Yu-Gi-Oh! Dragon Knight Reborn: Death vs Immortal! Shadow vs Barragan!
Mew Ichigo: Please remember to read, enjoy and review Nya. See you all next time!
Author's Note: How many arcs are left- counting this one: 2. Should be short, hopefully.
Aigami has recruited another "comrade" for his big plan in the future.
I enjoy the small breather for Yugi and the others, also dropping and hinting stuff like Ruby's silver eyes which we know "HOW WELL" Rooster Teeth handled that. Also this being the reunion of Ichigo and the others. It was nice.
So Grimmjow has made up his mind from the offer the Dark Lord gave him way back in Volume 5. Thank the Vasto Lorde for that!
Yea, introducing a very important item from a Shonen you all should know. It will not be in DKR at the time being... I still miss Toriyama like all the other creators of my favorite animes.
Very epic entry from Yugi and every fightable member of Team Dragon Knight, assembled to stop Aizen and even Darkus. This will be a three-way lock!
Next time, let's see if an "immortal" hedgehog can beat death. And maybe something else too hmm!
