Unohana fell down and landed on the reishi platform created by the entity formerly known as Kaizar Soize.
"Ara ara...
They did quite a number on you..."
She mused as she walked up to the thing.

However she quickly had to stop in her tracks once the monsters neck twitched and its head jerked to look at her.
A deep, growling grumble could be heard coming from the beast.
At this Unohana quickly raised her hands.

"Easy there.
I'm not here to hurt you."
She spoke as softly as she could and slowly reached for her zanpakuto.
This agitated the black figure and it growled again.

Unohana however did not pay much attention to it and proceeded to grab her sword.
Unholstering the weapon she slowly raised it to the side and let go of it.
Her blade clattered on the platform of reishi the Fear Eater had created and the growling subsided quickly.
Slowly she walked up to the figure as its attention shifted from her and it proceeded to stare blankly forward.
Raising but one finger she prodded him and then rolled the sticky blob of ink between her fingers.

"Poor Ichibe...
Such a great mind and yet still so foolish.
Even a thousand years were not enough for him to grow wiser.
He may have known Kaizars name and his abilities because of it... not to mention yours... but seems like he couldn't truly comprehend them.
Don't you agree my little dears?"

The black figure kept wheezing and drooling on the spot.

"Poor things.
You must have been so scared when your master and brothers went silent."
But as Unohana kept trailing her fingers along the black figure she suddenly stopped as something caught her attention.
"Hmmm?"

A white spot, barely larger than the tip of a needle but still quite visible under all the black ink.
She peered into it and saw it slowly growing.
"Oh my...
Time to leave."

Hopping backwards she quickly picked up her sword and fell to the ground.
The still levitating figure above her suddenly began acting strangely.
Letting out more sickly sounding coughs and gurgles it began holding onto its torso as if it was in pain.
Suddenly his body began bubbling as the white mark on its form expanded.

Spreading his arms and reeling back the figure let out a scream.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

Now the white markings formed a word with easily readable english letters: "Kaizar Soize"
And once his name returned all the ink covering his body got violently ejected in a forceful explosion of reiatsu.
Gasping for air now Kaizar looked around the place in confusion.

As you regained consciousness your hold on your powers slipped and you hit the ground hard.
Standing in the middle of all the dust you whipped up you saw Unohana approaching you.
"Welcome back!"
She said.

"Wh-What happned?"

"Ichibé...
His dominion is names and his zanpakuto is proof of that.
When his ink erases the name of something it can have quite profound effects.
Such as rendering a limb useless, making a weapon harmless or erasing ones consciousness."

This news shocked you.
"T-Then...
I have you to thank I assume..."

"Not quite.
I simply finished what you started.
I couldn't have done it if you... or more specifically your lovely little friends didn't back Ichibé into a corner."
She let out a soft chuckle.
"I must admit I didn't think I'd ever see the monk actually being scared!"

You fall to your knees in relief.
"Hah... Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHA!"

"Is something wrong?"

Smothering a single tear you speak up.
"Hahaha! Ooooh... No. Nothing's wrong.
It's just that these are the times when I wish I could communicate with them like you do with your swords."
You stand up and dust yourself off.
"Sometimes I just want to thank these guys for saving my life time and time again."

"Then thank them by surviving.
But to do that you have to eradicate both the quincy and the Royal Guard."

"Don't worry...
I already had plans for that!"

But as you are finished you hear another voice rising up.
"Father!"
Sophia rushed you down and jumped into your arms.
With teary eyes she looked at you.
"Are you alright?"

Smiling at her you pat her head.
"Yeah...
Just a bit tired I guess."

She hugs you and begins sobbing just a bit.
For a few minutes you just hug her tight and try calming her down.
Once separated she looks at you again.

"Father... we have a problem."

"What's wrong Pumpkin?"

"We got more Quincy..."
You frown at that.
"They came for their friends but they are sick...
They need help."

Setting down Sophia you wiped away her tears and gave her a smile.
"Well, let's go then!"

Collecting herself once more Sophia nodded and began leading you by the hand to the area where the Quincy prisoners were being held.
She seemingly became very determined in her task as she was walking at a somewhat fast pace.
Upon arriving at the scene you saw that the security got quadrupled in your absence.
Small wonder as the number of your prisoners more than doubled.

The nervous Exequias members sighed with relief when they saw you and stood aside.
Entering the tent revealed to you the five quincies who were all in different shapes.
Liltotto was sitting next to another girl who must be the one Sophia captured. They seem pretty content with their situations, if a bit irritated by the constant complaining of their friends.
The three newcomers however were a completely different deal.
You've had the "pleasure" of fighting them before and their personalities haven't become less abrasive just because they are dying.

As she was busy writhing in pain Candice looked up at you.
"O-Oh no..."

"Well hello.
Fancy meeting you again!"

"Go fuck yourself!"
Candice retorted which she immediately regretted as her lung wanted to violently leave her body.

Looking to the side you saw the freak with the corpse fetish fiercely holding onto her stomach.
Judging by the bowl next to her she was busy vomiting blood up until now.
The only one that's not in pain is the pink haired girl.

"You're not sick?"

She just shrugged.
"I wasn't injured badly.
So Gigi didn't use her power on me."

"Ah... then she was foolish enough to use the corpses."

"Didn't expect them to be contaminated..."
She doesn't seem to be too upset about her situation, just tired.

Turning back to the greenish-yellow haired girl you spoke up.
"Since when?"

"Huh?!"

"When did your symptoms start?
You'd better answer if you want to live."

"Since our fight ended..."

"So you came here... willingly... while dying.
Why?"

"Why else you moron?! To save Lil...
She sacrificed herself to save us.
I could've stayed at base... get myself treated...
But the procedure is long... Lil coulda died during that time. And I'd rather die than let down my friend like that!"

Cocking your head to the right you gestured towards Giselle.
"How about her?"

"She's a moron.
Didn't even realize she was undergoing Soul Suicide.
And Meninas just got dragged into all this."
>>
Walking up Giselle you look closely at "her".
Judging by her fetal position her hole is forming in her stomach.
Her blood vessels have swollen to a dangerously large size. Your reiryoku has spread through her entire body.

"H-HEY! GET AWAY FROM HER YOU FRE-!"
Candice screamed at you but her sentence got cut short as she coughed up blood once more.

"Candi you moron..."
Liltotto replied in your stead.
"Stop trying to bite the hand that's trying to feed you."

"FUCK YOU LIL!
*cough*

Now you shift your attention to Candice.
As you get closer to her she begins resisting you immediately.
Like a cornered rat she's flailing wildly, punching and scratching you as much as she can.
However you firmly grab her arm and give it a good squeeze, spreading the tainted reishi in it through her system which triggers another coughing fit.
Looks like the replacement arm she got was the source of her infection and it might have to be removed entirely, or the taint sucked out.
But now that she's busy coughing up her lungs you can see just how much Candice is shivering and by touching her skin you can feel her fever.

You let go of her and take a few steps away from the dying quincy.
Reaching towards your chest you touch the Hogyoku through the fabric of your jacket.
Rolling the ball around you give the matter some consideration.

"He's still silent..."
You mutter to yourself.

"Then... what are you going to do?"

"Maybe... maybe I can forcibly awaken him for a few moments."

"But... wouldn't that be bad for him?"

"Probably.
Might further delay his awakening.
...
But I don't know for sure..."

There is a painful silence coming from Mera.
She probably doesn't want to watch them suffer like that but knows that delaying the Hogyokus awakening is a big price to pay.
Perhaps too big.

Why save Quincy?

>>Heal just one (Candice)

>Heal just one (Your choice)
Don't save the trap. Didn't the other one tell us to kill her anyway? This makes it easy
>>
>>2136193
Heal just candice.
A suggestion to make this easier, though? Bring in Asher. He's had experience in drawing our hollow reishi away from someone. He could help the process.
>>
>>2136193
>>2136216
That idea with Asher sounds pretty good
>>
>>2136193

Ok so hollow stuff kills quincies, what about soul reaper stuff?

Couldn't Unohana heal them up, or at least keep them alive until our plot rock reboots?
>>
>>2136253
Unohana is just not good enough.
Nothing short of Urahara levels of fuckery can keep it in check.

You looked down at the orb and sighed.
"Guess I have no choice..."
Walking outside you pulled the door of the tent aside and gave Sophia a surprise headpat.
"Hey Pumpkin... Go and get Asher for me please."

She nodded and with a quick use of Sonído disappeared from sight.
Within moments she popped back with the elderly man in her arms.
Looking confused as hell Asher cursed.

"FUCKING HELL!"
But he quickly noticed your presence and changed his attitude.
"Oh hey Kaizar!
Sophia? Could you... please put me down?
It's not good for my hips."

"Sorry big bro..."
Helping the elderly man to his feet Sophia set him down.

"Oooof.
So... what's up?"

"Asher I need your help."

"You? Need mine?"
Well that's unusual.
How bad is the situation?"

"Deadly.
I need your help to save someones life because I don't trust my abilities as they are now."

Nodding in acknowledgement the pastor followed your lead inside where he saw the Quincy in the room.
Suddenly all available pairs of eyes were on Asher and they seemed quite surprised with his presence.
Liltotto even gave voice to her concerns.

"So... it is true then.
I didn't actually believe when our scouts said you have friendly relations with a human..."

"Stick with me long enough and you'll see all kinds of stuff.
Now then."
You looked at Liltotto and Bambietta.
"You two. Get her to remain still."

Liltotto obeyed the orders without much sass while Bambietta was a bit more annoyed with you bossing her around.
But they do make their way to Candice and after a quick exchange of insults they restrain the girls arms and legs.
You signal for Asher to follow you.

"So... what are we doing again?"

"She's dying because of the hollow energy in her body.
You already extracted my essence from a person once."

"Yeah, once!
And it was more of a lucky accident than anything else."

"Then just make sure you get lucky again.
I'll need to focus on actually treating her symptoms."

Asher then pulls out his locket and it turns into a serpent which shocks the quincy quite hard.
"Ready when you are."
>>
>>2136333
Aight im all caught up and now we doin some good ol' fashioned spirit energy emergency surgery.
>>
Since you are still in your secondary release state that saves you quite some time.
Lifting up your hand you sent forth a wave of mist that washed over Candice.
You had to be careful because if you mess up then your "healing" might just accelerate her affliction and kill her.
So once the Einherjar were inside of her you ordered them to eliminate as much of the hollow reishi in her body as possible.
Your little servants quickly devoured most if not all traces of your energy in her body and once they were done you gave a quick nod to Asher.
Suddenly Anguis bit the arm of Candice and began drawing out and consuming the Einherjar.

As if suddenly hit by something Asher reeled backwards with only Sophia halting his fall.
"God... damn...
That had quite a kick to it!"

With the source of the ailment taken care of you turned your attention inwards.
The power of the Hogyoku was faint but it was there.
Channeling as much energy as you could you poured your reiryoku into the small orb in your chest and a purple glow began filling the room.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SI2nXIjz1sk

For a split second you could feel the Hogyoku awakening and you quickly took your chance.
Pressing your thumb against Candices forehead you began exerting your will over her entire body.
With your mental eyes you could see how her body should be normally and how it currently is. Making the changes afterwards was but mere childs play.
After letting go of her body the Hogyokus light subsided and you saw the now healthy body of Candice.

"Hmph...
Looks like with the pain gone she could finally rest."
You observe as you see Candice sleeping soundly.
"You two can let go of her now."

Liltotto does as you tell her to without a word but Bambietta is in awe of your accomplishment.
"I-Is she really okay?"
You simply nod.
"No Soul Suicide..."
Bambietta muttered to herself and sat down, clearly lost in thought.

Meanwhile Meninas just gave you a quizzical look.
"Why? Why did you save her?"

"Sometimes I wonder about that myself."
You respond to her as you cover the almost completely exposed body of Candice with a blanket.
"But I guess I'm just an old fool who likes sparing people.
Too bad not many people give me a reason to do so...
And make no mistake, if she misbehaves when she wakes up I'll deal with her myself."

Meninas nodded but you doubt she understood what you meant.
"So... you'll do the same to Gigi now?"

You step over to the groaning "girl" and look at her.
"No."
And after saying that you conjured a spectral apparition of Basilisco with which you chopped her head off.
"But I will spare her from the pain."

To your surprise her head actually moves around for several seconds, seemingly not caring about being decapitated.
However her blood slowly leaking out of her head he slowly drifted away into nothingness.
Unsurprisingly the other girls hardly seemed to care about him.
>>
>>2136401

Better than what they probably deserve, but then again we don't really have time to play right now.

Business before pleasure and all that.

"W-What the hell?
Why did you do that?"

"Trust me Asher.
I did the world a service.
This thing was a monster."

"Agreed..."
Liltotto added.

"Then why were you hanging out with her?"
Asher asked in confusion.

"Him.
And because we didn't want to piss him off."

With all of that out of the way you began walking out of the tent but gave the Quincy a quick warning before you left.
"Watch over her while she's sleeping.
If anything's wrong just give me a shout.
Oh and make sure she doesn't do anything dumb once awake, this includes you too."
You said to Meninas.

"Hey Kaizar!
I'm hungry! Could you send Pesci our way?"

You pause at the Quincys request.
"I'll see what I can do."

After leaving you turned to Asher.
"Thanks for helping by the way.
How are you feeling?"

"Not as bad as I expected.
And your juices are doing quite a fine job in me guts."

"Still... Just because you have my nano hollows inside you shouldn't get carried away.
Be careful, okay my boy?"

"Tch. I'm no boy and you're not my real dad!
But thanks for the concern."

"Heh... and you're wondering where Dante gets his attitude."

But as you finished that sentence you heard a familiar yet unexpected voice.
"I concur."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iS-npAstKBo

"HOGYOKU?!"
You shout.
"YOU'RE AWAKE?!"

"Yes, I suppose my little nap got prematurely ended.
Interesting. According to my calculations I shouldn't awaken unless someone with approximately twice the reiatsu of a Captain would merge with me.
And even then it'd be temporary.
...
But I see from your memory I missed quite a lot.
I'll try not to abandon you again Young Master."


"You did nothing wrong Hogyoku.
I'm the one who put too much strain on you."

Now that the Hogyoku has finally awakened once more and the Quincy situation got resolved you can't help but smile.
And now that you're in such a fine mood it's time for:

"Sophia."

"Hmm?"

"Please escort Asher to Pesci.
I imagine he could use a break.
And while there please inform the chef that his "fan" requires his attention."

Your little girl nods and starts leading Asher away while holding his hand.
Meanwhile you finally turn off your Segunda Etapa and make your way to where all the powerful spiritual pressures congregated.
Pretty much every man and woman you passed by on the way ogled you from a far and quickly scurried out of your way.
Looks like the little show you put up with the Royal Guard had quite a dramatic effect on soldiers from all sides.

Upon finding Central Command you could feel that pretty much all shinigami captains have gathered as well as some of the more prominent hollows such as Aaroniero, Harribel and Nnoitora strangely enough.
The guards don't give you any trouble as they give way for you.

"Ah... speak of the devil!"
Captain Kyoraku spoke up as soon as you entered.
"You really need to cut the habit of suppressing your power Kaizar-san.
It gives you such an unfair advantage not knowing when you'll show up!"

"Sorry, old habit.
And I don't want people evacuating every time I show up somewhere."

"Damn... read me like a book, have you?
Anyways please take a seat.
We've been waiting for you. So let's get you up to speed."
Shuffling a stack of blank papers around the Captain attempts to look more professional as he speaks.
"Your little stunt has left us in a... rather strange position.
At first reactions were mixed. However..."
As you look around some of the Captains seem to be rather uncomfortable while others seem to be glaring daggers at you.
"We came to a unanimous conclusion even if it wasn't exactly easy.
And I guess it's better to do this one visually.
Anybody who is against fighting alongside the hollows, please raise your hands!"

You look around and see all the captains sitting in their chairs, unmoving.
Although some of them seem to have accepted this only begrudgingly the fact still remains, they are on your side.

"Basically-"
Ukitake picks up where Kyoraku ended things.
"Each and every one of us was either saved or assisted by you and your men.
Considering how we can't exactly afford infighting after losing the Seireitei and the frankly unacceptable behaviour of the Zero Division I think it's pretty obvious who we should trust."

"Yeah. The guy who scared the crap out of the Royal Guard!"
Zaraki also shares his take on things.

Looking over at the other shinigami you spot a few people who seem to genuinely hate you.
Namely Ashido, Junichi and the dog that you are still not used to.
"Even you?"
You spoke up, suppressing the urge to address Ashido directly.

"As Captain Ukitake said we have other things to worry about..."
Junichi spoke up.

"Right..."
Kyoraku resumed.
"With that settled I think we can start worrying about the actually important stuff.
Like these cunt Nazis that took our homes.
No offense Kaizar."

"None taken."
Suddenly you hear some of the Captains murmuring amongst themselves but Kyoraku shuts them down by clearing his throat.

"Anyway...
They may be locked up right now but we shouldn't allow the Quincy to do as they please.
And as your lovely wife pointed out we actually have a wonderful opportunity at our hands."
You raise an eyebrow at that.
"Basically she pointed out that the Tenchuuren, the big fuck off pillar the Zero Division normally use for transportation, was kindly left in our care.
And it just so happens to be made out of Sekki stone, meaning if we fired it off from a certain massive cannon it could penetrate the barrier surrounding the Seireitei without a problem."

"But the problem is that we can only fit in a handful of people..."
Aaroniero adds to that.

"Right.
So this is pretty much what we cooked up in such a short amount of time.
Fill the tube with five of our strongest men, fire it into the middle of enemy territory and while this deep strike is riling up the nazis we storm the gates.
It's not the best idea ever but it's pretty much the best we have.
Now since this involves your forces as well it's only fair if we hear you out regarding the operation.
So... what do you think?"

Hmm...

On the one hand a Deep strike insertion into enemy territory is a dangerous game, but if we go in and go all out from the get go we can do a hell of a lot of damage.

Only problem is that whoever is going in is going to be cut off from aid and surrounded.

If we do this we need to be part of the group, if only to play healer and keep folks alive.

Sure some may get Visored, but that's the price they're going to have to pay.

As for the others?

Well Kenpachi for definite, he's bullshit incarnate.

Marr might be good.

Spoony maybe, his armor is bullshit but some of the tricks these assholes can pull might get around that.

I would say just use it to prop open one of the fuckoff huge gates or use it like a tube to get through one of the walls but then everyone would be coming in from one spot and that's not really a good place to be in since they could just have everyone sit in front of it and glass anyone who comes through.

I mean, we can still stuff kaizar and the captains in the tube for shits and giggles, if you want.
But the rest of the army can just walk in.
>>
>>2136711
>>2136725
Multiple, simultaneus insertions. like ghost strikes all over the place?
>>
>>2136733
Sure.
The best part about literally our entire army being able to use the garganta is that you can insert anyone you want anywhere you want at any time, and retreat just as quickly if a situation becomes unfavorable.

We could do hit-and-run guerrilla tactics.

Oh fuck, this.
Supporting this.

>>2136747
Yes

"Who did you have in mind?"
You asked the Captain while rubbing your chin.

"Well we already have 3 people calling "shotgun" on the tube.
Them being two of your hollows, one is the eye-patch wearing gentleman over there and the other was the guy who looks like his father was a fork truck.
And of course the last one is our very own Zaraki Kenpachi."

"I also volunteer..."

"Ukitake?!"

"Yes Kyoraku.
Just brute force wouldn't be enough.
And I'd be perfect for the role of a battlefield strategist."

You shake your head.
"No... It's too risky with too little pay-off.
I like the idea of shock and awe but this would endanger five of our strongest too much."

"Well... do you have a better idea then?"

"One moment."
Raising your communicator you began dialing.
Once the phone began ringing you put the thing on "loud" and put it down in the middle of the table.

"Urahara Candy shop!
How can I help you today?"

"Do you two just alternate between who gets to pick up the phone?"

"Thiiiis may be the case."

"Anyway Urahara.
I want to ask you about the bomb."

"The wha-
Oh! That!
Yea we have it."

Your eyes go wide at that.
"You already made one?!"

"Well it's just a prototype.
It hasn't been tested before but it's relatively simple so it "should" work just fine.
It's a weak explosive just strong enough to scatter the hollow cell culture inside."

"How big?"

"Depends on many factors since it's a bio-weapon.
But if there is sufficient wind to carry the contagion it could theoretically cover the entire Seireitei within an hour or so.
After that time however the cells would self destruct on their own.
Can't have that ruining the court of pure souls forever."

And with that you cut the channel.
"So? How's that?"

"Y-You developed a weapon of mass destruction just like that?"

"Just in case..."

"Holy-"

"But don't worry.
That's very much a plan Z.
Something I don't want to use unless absolutely necessary.
After all I've seen that even the Quincy have some decent people amongst their ranks.
If at all possible I'd like to spare them."

Shunsui began rubbing his head.
"It'd be much easier if you just didn't..."

"That's not something I'm willing to accept.
I believe in- no...
I want to believe in redemption. So unless I have no choice I won't use it."

*sigh*
"Very well then...
But we still need a replacement plan."

You smirk at that.
"Actually. I just thought of something..."

Both.

After describing your idea to the people present Kyoraku found himself slapping his knee in a fit of hysterical laughter.
"Oh! Oooooh!
This is good!"

But after being elbowed in the sides by Unohana he found himself shutting up rather swiftly.
Clearing his throat he looked at you after he managed to compose himself.
"Okay so I think we can all agree that's a better idea than what we had.
All in favor?
...
Good!
That just leaves us with one teensy-weensy problem."
You raise an eyebrow at that.

"Indeed."
Unohana speaks up.
"Before we make our move we should choose a new Captain Commander.
Even if only a temporary one."

"I don't see how that's relevant."

"Kaizar-san...
The Gotei 13 needs a head.
Not only for the sake of the chain of command."

"It's also a symbolic thing."
Ukitake speaks up.
"Our men need a leader, someone who will lead the charge and them, someone that inspire them."

"Having a Commander shows that the 13 court guard squads are still capable of fighting."
The guy with the creepy make-up also chimes in.

A beacon of hope, a figure who inspires the masses.
Being one yourself you almost forgot how important having a leading figure can be.
Not that you ever asked for it of course, it merely turned out that way.
But with that reminder you have to agree with them.

The shinigami need a leader.
Now more than ever.

"So who's it going to be?"
You ask.

Your only answer was silence.
All the captains stared at the table with a gloomy expression on their faces.
It's clear they do not want to speak up, whether because they don't want to disrespect the old man or because they believe they aren't worthy of the position is not clear.
But one person managed to gather the courage necessary to make the first move.

"I volunteer..."
Junichi spoke up.
"I may not have my bankai right now... but I'm still capable of fighting just as hard.
And..."
Raising his hand he swiped it across his face and produced a hollow mask.
"I also have this...
Courtesy of our "friend" the Fear Eater himself."

To your surprise the Captains don't seem to be all too shocked by this.
Either they were aware of it or they simply don't care.
But one of them seems to have taken offense to the proposition.

"Whoa whoa...
No offense Captain Asato but...
I don't think you have the necessary qualifications.
I mean you've not even been a captain for a century!"
Kyoraku complained.
"Actually... screw it!
I'm also tossing my hat into the ring."

"Is that so?
Is it because you genuinely want to succeed Captain Yamamoto or simply because you don't want ME to do it?!"

"Does it matter?
I may not want the position but I'd rather take it than let some upstart snatch it away."

"C-Calm down you two!"
Ukitake attempts to mediate between the two captains.

What do you do?
>I have nothing to do with this. Abstain.
>I suggest Ukitake.
>Kyoraku is a good choice
>Asato was willing. Let him be Commander.
>Other? (write-in)
>>
>>2136870
Hey if the hogyoku is awake again, can't we go finish fixing up yamamoto?
Also all the captain's wounds, like koraku's eye while we're at it.
>>
>>2136870
>>I suggest Ukitake.
>>
>>2136872
Yamamoto is fine but he's in a coma.
Can't fix that.

Kyoraku would rather keep his wound as a reminder.
Also it gives him an excuse to wear an eye-patch and talk like a pirate.
So he doesn't want it.

the rest of them are more or less battle ready
>>
>>2136870
>I suggest Ukitake.

He may not be the absolute strongest but there isn't anyone who doesn't respect him. Also he's smarter than any of the other candidates when it comes to actual commanding.
>>
>>2136877
What sort of reality-bending plotrock can't get someone out of a coma?
Is there some special reason for it that i don't remember?

If it's truly impossible for some reason, then i'd vote for asato, both because he was willing and because he hates us, as a show of faith, some small proof that we really aren't trying to be at odds with soul society, that we as a people (or at least those in power) don't hate shinigami.
>>
>>2136884
So the point is that both his mind and body are completely healthy.
It's just that at this moment his mind doesn't seem to be responding to anything.

So if you force your way and wish for him to awaken the Hogyoku might just erase his mind and replace it with a perfect copy. Effectively causing ego death in Yama.
And Kaizar doesn't want to risk that
>>
>>2136899
Eh, so?
It's the star trek teleporter conundrum.

Either way, if we want to avoid that then we merely need to specify that the hogyoku is not allowed to awaken him in a way that would cause ego death.
The mind is a physical construct, and so is the soul in this universe. If you move things around in the right way, you can get them functioning again. It's nothing but chemicals reacting. Ask urahara and yata if you don't believe me.

If yamamoto was truly fine, he wouldn't be in a coma.
Even if he's been "healed" his mind has healed in such a way that it's not functioning properly, like a scar on your skin.

The hogyoku needs only turn that scar tissue back into proper skin, as it were.
>>
>>2136870
>I suggest Ukitake.

Calm heads win wars.
>>
>>2136920
If you want something really specific, tell the hogyoku to physically move around the particles in yamamoto's brain until they match up with their positions in the moments before he was struck down.

He'll lose his memories, if he has any, of whatever happened after he was injured, which would just be him getting healed and laying on the ground, but he'd be fine.
>>
>>2136929

Or, and hear me out on this, the plot rock fucks it up and OMG ends up dead.

Just let the man have his coma nap, lord knows its probably the only sleep he's gotten since he got the job.
>>
>>2136920
Just let the old man rest. He'll wake up when he's good and ready. Hell, maybe the reason he can't wake up is because he got fucked up really hard and Ywach is doing weird shit to his soul via stolen bankai. There are probably more factors than "he's just conked out" you know?

If only Isshin was here to hold the old man in the dangai for years until he woke up because that's a thing he can just do apparently.
>>
>>2136934
Hey, there's an idea.
Get the hogyoku to fast-forward time around yamamoto, keeping him fed and watered until he wakes up.
>>
Ukitake it is

>writing
>>
>>2136939
Also, you could totally just ask the hogyoku if it can tell why he's in a coma and if he can fix it.
>>
"Well if I may speak up..."
Suddenly the shinigami stopped bickering amongst each other.
"If the position of Commander is indeed so important for the shinigami then...
Perhaps deciding it solely on the basis of strength is not the best idea.
After all both of you are considerably weaker than Zaraki. By your logic he should be Commander, no?
Or maybe you should pick who is most fitting for the post."
Your eyes move around and focus on Ukitake.

"M-Me?"

"You were also Yamamotos pupil.
And as for an icon you can hardly find better.
Aren't you respected by all your peers?"
The shinigami were silent.
"There you have it.
A suitable candidate."

Kyoraku looked at his friend with sadness in his eyes.
"Ukitake?"

"All my life I lived in fear of my condition.
I even hesitated to accept the position of captain, fearing that I'd fail my men if I suddenly passed away."
Ukitake paused.
"If you'd have me... I'd accept the position."

Kyoraku sighed.
"All in favor?"
Suddenly everyone, even Kenpachi raised their hand.
"Then it's decided.
My fellow Captains. Let us welcome our new Captain Commander!
Ukitake Jushiro!"

Rather unceremoniously Ukitake was inaugurated by his fellows with only a short clapping.
The announcement was quickly made to the rest of the shinigami and their morale visibly got much better.
With a new Captain Commander in charge they were eager to return to the fight.
And this wish of theirs was about to be fulfilled.


>Silbern: The holy city of the Quincy

The scouts spotted something and the alarms were rung immediately.
Soldat, Sternritter and everyone else quickly stormed the streets and looked at the skies.
"So it begins..."
The words escaped the mouth of His Majesty.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J7K3yacig4

The Tenchuuren collided against the barrier surrounding the Seireitei and it sent ripples through the membrane.
Penetrating the shield without much difficulty the pillar violently tore throughout the defenses of the place and headed straight for the palace of His Majesty.
Even though the pillar landed mere inches away from him he hardly budged.
Steam escaped as the door of the pillar flung open, revealing it to be empty safe for a sliver of paper.
On the note was a crudely scribbled message written with crayon: Surprise!

Sipping wine from his glass His Majesty looked at the paper as space began folding on itself and tearing apart.
Several small gateways opened up into the Garganta that slowly began expanding as the fabric of space got weaker and weaker with each subsequent portal.
Now gazing into the single, massive hole in the sky His Majesty spoke up.

"Cheeky."
>>
And sadly this is literally as far as I can go
Apologies for the short thread.
I'll try to think of something to make it up to you.

Doesn't this flood the entire area with hollow particles?
>>
Hey, since the royal guard is being opposed by just about everyone now, and since C46 is probably dead as fuck...how about we offer to hollowfy everyone else left who has a bankai? It'll help them to not get it fucking stolen. And help it get un-stolen if it's currently stolen.
>>
>>2137095
Neliel?
That one hollow who I forgot the name of?
>>
>>2137503
Nah, that's not how it's being done. We're just alpha striking en masse.

There are still a few Quincy left who aren't complete jackasses, so just nuking them all isn't cool. In particular, Askin and Cang Du aren't shitters. Also any of the scrub quincy who want to surrender when the big guys are done murdering each other.
>>
>>2138032
have not seen Dante for awhile
Pesci and alex basically got ignored once vanaheim and aizen fuckery started
Asher pretty much EXISTS to be ignored
and lets not talk about Ichigo and the other living fucks
>>
>>2138525
Im not really sure i agree with you there senpai, we saw dante vs the fear and we saw the quatro bestais vs BG 17. Also asher just helped us out with emergency energy surgery and pesci now has a new fan to cook for.
Also who cares about strawberry dumbass anyway? We do gotta shatter Isshins teeth in at some point tho.
had to repost from >>2138533 since i didnt remember to link what i was replying to.
>>
>>2137104
Vash? Do you perhaps mean Nash?
Nah man. It ain't him

ANYWAY!
Here's the omake list that I currently have, I'm still open for suggesions if one is not to your liking but I don't think I can do more than 4

>The adventures of Captain Lung Cancer
>Neliel is also busy
>The big return
>>
>>2138575
How was nelie btw?

She rarely appeared. The twins and gorilla girl too
>>
>>2138575
Monk vs vasto+ kaizar, as was on the ask
unless that one is the big return
>>
>>2138575
Is "The Big Return" one of Aimee/Grimmjow/Amas?
>>
>>2138601
Oh yeah. That's what I forgot!

Thanks for reminding me

>>2138626
Nope. Even better
>>
>>2138575
I don't know why I thought his name was Vash. Fuck. Sudoku commencing.
>>
>>2138648
Grimmjow
>>
>>2138056
>Askin and Cang Du aren't shitters
Yes, they are.
>>
>>2138850
Eh...
Askin maybe.
But he's more like a chaotic neutral guy who knows he's op as fuck and not necessarily "evil".

But Cang Du didn't do anything bad at all.
Heck he was the guy that got closest to killing ice shota, that means he's a good boi
>>
>>2138850
>>2138866
Askin was physiologically incapable of giving a fuck, that means he's good people once you take him away from his shitter allies.

Omake #1: Don't underestimate a Captain

"I see...
A captain is still a captain after all."
The Quincy mused.
"But... are you sure it's wise to leave them unconscious?
Once they get back up they'll be thrown right back at you!"

"That... may be the case..."
The captain panted slightly as he raised his sword.
"Still. That just means I'll have to defeat them again and again.
As many times as it takes!"

"Heh.
You are amusing Captain I'll give you that!
But sadly you won't get to that point!"
Raising his hands the quincy assumed his fighting stance.

To Ukitakes surprise his opponent did not materialize a spirit weapon in any shape or form.
Smiling he addressed his future opponent.
"Unarmed?
I... kinda understand that I'm at my limit here, after all you've been throwing your men at me for the last thirty minutes but...
Aren't you a little over confident?"

Smiling with his checkerboard like teeth the Sternritter used Hirenkyaku to vanish from view and appear before Ukitake.
"Too slow!"
He declared as he began swinging at the captain with his fingers pointed at him.

Despite Ukitakes fleet footwork and quick reflexes he did not manage to actually dodge the attacks, even though it appeared otherwise.
Bolts of energy, about the same size as the point of a needle, flew out of the Quincys fingers and even though his strikes did not connect the projectiles most certainly did.
Staggering a bit Ukitake quickly looked at his chest in order to observe the damage.
He felt no pain coming from the points of impact but he still felt something amiss.

As he looked down however his head quickly started spinning and making him nauseous.
This pleased the quincy immensely and he let out another toothy grin.
"I ain't the one that's over confident Cap'n.
You may be a captain but I am a Sternritter! One of His Majesties chosen!"

"Wha... what have you done?"

"You'd like to know that wouldn't ya?
Fine! In recognition of your efforts I'll enlighten you so you won't die in ignorance!"
Patting his chest the Quincy began introducing himself.
"Name's NaNaNa Najahkoop! Sternritter U - The Underbelly!
And what you just took was one of my so called Morphine shots!"

"Wha? Morphine?"

"That's correct!
I am capable of discerning the weakpoints of my opponents reiatsu just by observation.
Once I am fully aware of your capabilities I can strike your pressure points in order to exploit your weaknesses!"
At this Ukitake began stumbling all over the place but he still managed to discern what this meant.
"I see you understand now! Good!
Simply put I can increase the flow of your reiryoku in certain points, forcing your body to expel all of it!
The more I analyze my enemy, the more accurately I can pinpoint these weak spots.
And you my good Captain just fought for 30 minutes while I was watching you!"
Raising his hand confidently the quincy chopped the air.
>>
"Well at least you won't die in pain.
As you can probably feel a rather useful side effect of my Morphine shots is the slight feeling of euphoria mixed with numbness.
I'd suggest you thank me Captain. After all this is probably the best way to die in this little war of ours!
Or it would be if I didn't just give you a dose that could take a buffalo out cold!"

But as the Quincy was finished gloating he saw a projectile flying at him.
Only thanks to his quick reaction was he capable of avoiding his head being taken clean off.
With how accurate the attack was he started sweating as he looked at the captain.
"W-Wha?"

"A buffalo you say?
I'm relieved. For a second I thought I was in trouble there.
Thank you for clarifying."

"HOW?!"

"Easy.
I've been under constant and very heavy medication almost my entire life.
My drug resistance is quite high you see.
And losing this much reiatsu may be dangerous for a common shinigami it's nothing for a captain."
Raising his dual swords Ukitake straightened his posture confidently.
"Now then... Mr Quincy.
I think it's only fair if I also shared with you how my abilities work!"

"Please don't!"

"All Waves, Rise now and Become my Shield!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGj9roo6sAQ

Suddenly from one blade of Sogyo no Kotowari a tidal wave sized stream of water burst forth and attacked the Quincy.
In the vain hopes of avoiding the attack NaNaNa used Hirenkyaku to fly high into the sky however with but one swipe of his sword Ukitake commanded the waves he just conjured to change their direction and head straight up, after the quincy.

Activating Blut Vene NaNaNa braced for impact as the waters slammed against his body.
However the blunt trauma was enough to penetrate his defenses and he found himself defenseless.
Flailing wildly he tried to escape his watery prison but it was no use. The water around him was dense and heavy, filled with reiryoku.
He quickly started running out of air.
That's when Ukitake took pity on him.

"Lightning, Strike now and Become my Blade."
Calmly canting his swords release command he stabbed the floating bubble of water with his other sword.

In that moment NaNaNa found his body convulsing uncontrollably as electricity ran through the water and his body.
Wast arcs of lightning flew out of the floating aquatic sphere, tearing the scenery apart.
When it subsided the bubble burst open and released the poor quincy..
Gasping desperately for air he found himself on the ground and in incredible amounts of pain as his muscles continued to spasm.

"T-This can't be...
No Zanpakuto.... can have... two distinct.... abilities!"

"You are correct-"
Ukitake responded and quickly jerked his head to the side as NaNaNa fired off another morphine shot at him in desperation.
"However these were not two distinct abilities... only one."
>>
"YOU LIE!"
NaNaNa snapped at the Captain and began firing shots rapidly in the hopes of driving him away.

"Observe."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv3JykpRj4A

However Ukitakes expression remained stoic and he raised his sword.
All the shots fired off by NaNaNa were absorbed by his blade.
The talismans on the rope connecting his two swords lit up one by one and once they were all glowing he fired the projectiles back at the one who sent them.
Finding his own morphine shots hitting him NaNaNa was mortified but he could hardly give voice to his concerns as the effects began to take hold.

"You see... my sword can take in reiryoku with one blade and expell it with the other.
But its actual ability is to change the properties of the energy to give them a different form.
For example I can slightly adjust your shots and fire them back at you.
However I can get more extreme than that and alter my own reiryoku drastically.
Water and Electricity just so happen to be the things with which I have the greatest affinity and therefore they are the most complex things I can create.
In theory however I can adjust almost any aspect of any energy based attack even if only slightly."

Falling onto his knees as his legs gave out NaNaNa began desperately pleading to the Captain.
"I... Aih... subhmith.
Phwease don't kill meh!"

"I'm sorry but that's not an option..."

"Whath?!"

"Your men were ordered to attack me.
That I can forgive. You however acted on your own!
And I can not forgive someone like you!"

"NO! P-"

But before he could scream any more the Captain swung both of his swords in an X shape and chopped NaNaNas head off.
With his opponent killed the Captain finally made his way to a comfortable looking pile of rubble and sat down on it rather ungracefully.

"I'm not used to so much exercise...
Need to take a break for a few minutes."

Omake #2: Only business

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbTI_Bzy29I

Four bodies lay in pieces.
The butcher of these 4 however still stands.
Panting in exhaustion he looks at the last man standing.

The fifth man speaks up.
"My men...
You've killed them and for what?
What purpose do you have?
Were you finally fed up with everything and decided to destroy the world?
Or is this a crusade? Petty revenge?
What force makes you commit such atrocities? Kaizar Soize..."

Hunched forward the hollow straightens his back, seeing how his opponent is more concerned with talking rather than fighting him.
He pulls out a pack of cigarettes and lights it before the monk.
Letting out a puff of smoke he carefully sizes up his opponent before letting out a single chuckle and speaking up.

"Heh...
You think much of yourself, don't you? Ichibe Hyosube..."
The monks eyes snapped open as he saw the Fear Eater not being affected by his name curse.
"Crusade? Revenge? Madness?
No...
You are not that important.
This..."
Tossing his cigarette to the ground he stepped on it, extinguishing the flames.
"is just business."

"Business?"
The monk asked dumbfounded.

"Ye... that's right.
I know who you are... I know what you are... I know what you did.
And while it makes my blood boil just thinking about it, in truth I couldn't care less about you.
You see... I made a deal some time ago.
The power to make Aizen pay for what he done to me, my friends... in exchange of your heads."
Suddenly comprehension dawned on the ancient shinigami and he readied his painting brush.
This amused Kaizar and made him smile.

"Ahhh... I see you get it now."

"You won't succeed."

"Why? Because you are immortal?
My dear friend you misinterpreted what I said.
My boss wants your head. I don't need to kill you."

"BLACKEN! ICHIMONJI!"

Kaizar grinned even harder and closed his eyes.
"Ah yes.
I see now.
No matter how monstrous you are, no matter how hard you tried otherwise... you are still human!"
Focusing ever harder Kaizar continued.
"I can hear it.
Your heart. Racing like that of a cornered animal.
For all your power, your immortality, you still fear your End..
Don't you?"

The monk rushed him and he responded in kind, materializing a katana in his hand.

Paint clashed against steel as Ichibe flooded the entire heavenly palace with his ink.
For a while Kaizar managed to evade him, however the almost chokingly dense air combined with his exhaustion made him sloppy.
Once he got just a drop of ink on himself he felt his power being drained drastically.
It was only a matter of time before the tsunami of blackness swallowed him.

Completely blackened he stood there, motionless.
Ichibe then slammed the pommel of his weapon against the ground and spoke up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xggWJLgN-Es

"Foolish little ant.
You who thought to usurp the heavens, shall now feel its full might."
Clapping his hands together in prayer the monk continued.
"Shin'uchi: Shirafude Ichimonji!"

His painting brush turned pale and where once stood a weapon now floated a pure stream of white ink.
Creating a massive halo above Ichibes head the weapon assumed its true form.
Moving his hands around he commanded the paint to move towards the still hollow.
Soon the word appeared on his black body.

粉塵

"Ashes to ashes...
Dust to dust..."

Raising his hand Ichibe created a spiritual appendage and formed it into a fist.
Pulling back his hand he prepared to punch Kaizar Soize into oblivion.
As his fist eclipsed the form of the aberration it quickly came to a stop.
Ichibes was mortified and his eyes lost their pure whiteness.
Try as he might he couldn't move his hand.

Eventually a voice spoke up.
It was deep and booming, shaking the entirety of the Soul King Palace.
Ichibe did not recognize the voice, despite it being remarkably similar to Kaizars, still he was shaking because of it.

With one motion his spiritual appendage shattered and with it his own as well.
Grasping at the fleshy chunks that remained of his arm he looked up at Kaizar and saw the kanji on him changed.

終了

"T-THIS CAN'T BE!
HOW DID YOU-"


The figure cut him off.
"Silence."
And suddenly the monks voice was severed.
Every fiber of his being suddenly revolted against him.
He was no longer in control of his own body.
"Fall."
And Ichibes knees gave out as his world went dark.

"You are strong Ichibe...
But a pretender can only do so much.
You are alone now. There is only darkness for you and only death in your future."

"S-So he shared his essence with you..."
Ichibe groaned with what strength he had remaining.
"But he should have chosen a wiser avatar!"

Clapping his hands together Ichibe assumed control of all the darkness Kaizars presence created.
"Futen Taisatsuryō!"
Suddenly the darkness encroached around Kaizar and took the shape of an elaborate shrine.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6URSMxl1aY

Pouring every last ounce of power he had in him Ichibe made his last stand.
With his life force being drained away he spoke his final words.

"I may die in this you foolish hollow.
But all it'll take is for one of our servants to say our names for us to resurrect!
You on the other hand will be erased into nothingness!
You are hereby banished from the cycle of reincarnation!
BE GONE!"

With his prison erected around him Kaizar looked at the monk and just smiled.
"To whom do lions cast their gentle looks?
Not to the beast that would usurp their den.
The smallest worm will turn being trodden on, And doves will peck in safeguard of their brood."
Sheathing his sword he raised it to his side and gripped it tightly.
"Feel the power of a man who shall give his all!"

With a draw of his sword the very earth shook.
Ichibe just stared as the top of his shrine just slid down at the slope which was cut into it.
Kaizars sword sang as he kept rotating it in the air.
Its humming noise was practically maddening.

"You feel it don't you?
How scary...
But even you are just a human.
No matter how motionless you want to be... your heart is still beating.
With every pump it inches you close to deaths door.
But don't worry. I'm not that merciless."

Kaizar then sheathed his sword with a loud click and as soon as the humming stopped Ichibes upper half began sliding quickly.
But before he was torn in half Kaizar drew his sword again and severed the monks head from his neck.
With Ichibe dead his ink also began disappearing.
Sighing in exhaustion Kaizar made his way towards the royal guard and collected their heads one by one.

In less than an hour he was back in Hueco Mundo with them.
As he dropped the sacks on the ground a voice spoke up.

"Excellent work little bug..."
The End clapped slowly, shaking the ground.
"The blood price has been paid.
Raise your hand Kaizar Soize!"

Bowing in acknowledgement he showed his palm to the dragon.
With a big toothy grin the god of Hueco Mundo prodded it with one of his claws and Kaizar could feel a certain weight being lifted from his shoulders.
"The contract has been fulfilled.
You are free."

"Thank you my lord."

"But you do know your actions have consequences...
Without these bags of meat... that aberration lies undefended.
You may have cut out the sickness but the symptoms shall remain forever."

"I'll make sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands..."

"Hmph...
That may prove more difficult than you think.
Be careful Kaizar Soize.
The guard... and that thing... had many enemies."

"I'm well aware."
With that he began walking away.
"Peace be upon you.
And... Bon Appétit."

The End grinned.
His meal will be most enjoyable indeed.

He's stronger than I expected, even without hogyoku bullshit he'd give regular kaizar a run for his money. Hell, might be that our boy would even lose.
>>
>>2147010
Eh... it's debatable.
He's simply not constrained by the same rules as Kaizar (i.e. the dice) so I can write him however bullshit I want to.

But as you pointed it out the two of them have 1 massive difference: The plotrock.

And Punished Kaizar will certainly have a much harder time against a certain someone than regular Kaizar
>>
>>2147108
True enough. The plotrock is such immense bullshit that it'd elevate kaizar to a whole new level if he merged with it.

That being said, in terms of base level, punished kaizar is clearly the superior. Which makes sense - he's had a lot more einherjar for far longer, endured a far harder life, and got maximum training from the end instead of being humored by him for a little bit.

One thing about that fight is that respira would be far less effective against punished kaizar than it would be against anyone else.
>>
>>2147130
But on the flip side Vanilla Kaizar has an ace in the hole that punished doesn't. Well 2 actually.

Mera and Segunda.
And Mera would fuck him extra hard

Punished has no releases to speak of.
He can only raise his base strength the regular way, by powering up.
>>
>>2147145
Is Asher still a living Human in Canon? What chapter was the Omake where he dies and a Shinigami tries to reap him before we manage to get to him but he just sort of makes them fuckoff.
>>
>>2147130
We must never merge with plot rock, god knows what that would do. we still aren't sure if it even considers Kaizer to be worthy of bonding to.
>>
>>2148432
The fuck are you on about man
We (the audience) know perfectly well what merging with it does. It vastly boosts your capabilities, imbues extreme regeneration and a form of immortality, and (at least in aizen's case) puts you through a series of evolutions as it refines your form into an increasingly more powerful one.
And I'm almost positive the hogyoku considers him worthy enough. Not like it's particularly picky if it'll let Aizen of all people do it.
>>
>>2148497
I am pretty sure the Hogyoku has said it is intrigued by Kaiser, I don't think he ever used its power for a solely selfish purpose and he specifically told it he would never use its power simply to wish himself stronger to defeat an enemy.
>>
>>2148497
I don't think comparing it to canon is really worth a damn. It didn't exactly speak in canon. And it seemed like in canon is was merely driven to grant wishes to those who had a very powerful desire or incredibly strong willpower. It also didn't really discriminate. It popped out of Aizen's chest at the end of his arc because Ichigo just had a stronger will to see his desires (in this case, saving fucking everyone) fulfilled.

Really though Aizen was a goof. If he would have just killed Ichigo when he had the chance like a smart person would have done (seriously, every time Ichigo showed up his power was exponentially more bullshit than the time before it, kill that kind of shit with fire before it gets out of control) then he would have been A-Okay.

But no, Aizen thought it was a neat experiment. That's how people die in horror films bruh.
>>
>>2149105
I'm pretty sure he said he wouldn't use it [for himself]. Kaizar's personality is that if it would save everyone else to use it to defeat one incredibly evil son of a bitch, he would. Even if it somehow damned himself in the process, he'd take that cunt out for the good of everyone he cares about. Sure, he'd definitely do everything he could short of it beforehand - but if it came down to it and it was the only trick left in his bag to put the ultimate fucker down for good? He'd use it.
>>
>>2148253
He is. For now

And I can't recall exactly when it was.
You might have to do an archive binge.
But here's something to make it a bit easier:
Hit Ctrl+F and search for the line "I reject my humanity"
Pretty sure I used that one then

Omake #3: The Savior

"RUN!"
The shinigami screamed to his comrades as they were surrounded.

Unbeknownst to them the quincy have been waiting for an opportunity to ambush them and with the trap sprung their fates were sealed.
Half of the ten man squad was decimated in an instant and the rest were forced to retreat.
But their injuries did not make it easier.

One of the younger shinigamis who was initiated only very recently tripped over and fell.
As he looked up he saw the Quincy bolts flying towards him and he shut his eyes as he embraced death.
The sound of the Heilig Pfeil hitting their marks was almost deafening.
Strangely enough however he felt no pain at all. Slowly he opened his eyes and saw a green haired woman with her arms spread widely, standing in front of him.

"Are you alright?"
She asked with a gentle smile.
The shinigami was too confused to respond, his eyes were fixated on the pool of blood that was collecting under the arrancars feet.
Concluding that the boy is not injured Neliel turned around and faced the quincy.
"I'm glad.
Please retreat into safety!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPNq5L6nY-0

Drawing her sword she raised it in front of herself horizontally and spoke the command.
"Declare! Gamuza!"

After her blade released a pink cloud of smoke the Quincy barely had enough time to react before Neliel charged them.
At full speed she drove her horns into the enemy as she rammed them without remorse.
Ribs cracked and blood flew from the humans mouth freely as his ribcage caved in.
The rest however were quick to respond.

Using Hirenkyaku they broke away from the arrancar and opened fire on her from all angles.
But Neliel was expecting this and she quickly began spinning her lance to block the projectiles from one side.
Then she shifted her full weight onto her forelegs and kicked with her hind ones once they were off the ground.
With the quincy behind and in front of her taken care of all she had to worry about were the ones at her sides.

Moving as fast as she could she repositioned herself to the right and gored one of the Quincy standing there.
She let out a quiet curse as the body of the human got firmly stuck on her lance.
Turning her head slightly she saw the remaining enemies converging around her.
As she tried to move the injuries she sustained while defending the shinigami finally took their toll and she winced in pain.
She was going to get hit.
>>
"HADO #31: SHAKKAHO!"
The shinigami desperately cried out as the quincy converged around the immobile arrancar.

Aimed at the few who were readying their bows his attack did little in actually stopping the group but at least it bought Neliel some time.
Shouting in exertion she raised her lance and swiped it sideways, knocking the enemies into nearby walls hard enough to destroy the obstacles utterly.
However five of them managed to duck under the attack and proceeded to set up their trap.
With each one of them stabbing a Seele Schneider into the ground the Sprenger was primed and ready.
Neliel gasped as she realized what was about to happen.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UreOvO2z4Y

As the single drop of condensed reiryoku falls down a myriad of slashes obliterate it, the ginto used to contain the droplet as well as the person who held it mere moments ago.
Falling to the ground in pieces the rest of the Quincy look at the poor soul and start searching for the one responsible for this.

"You got sloppy... Neliel..."

"Nnoitora!"

Hearing his voice the Quincy quickly turned their attention to the newly arrived hollow.
"KILL HIM!"

But Nnoitora merely smiled at this and stuck out his tongue, charging a powerful Cero on its tip.
As he fired it off the Quincy were quick to dodge to the side, away from the dangerous blast.
What they did not realize however was the fact that they were not the targets of the attack.

Hitting the open palm of Neliel the Cero came to a crashing halt.
Opening her mouth she inhaled deeply and all the energy composing the blast entered her body.
Swallowing every drop of reishi she rapidly added her own to it and opened her mouth.
With a shout she expelled all the energy that she gathered up and her Cero Doble hit the Quincy right in the back.

Nothing but dust remained of the four quincy.
And as soon as the cloud parted Nnoitora made his way to the girl.
Extending a hand he helped up Neliel who has fallen to her knees.
"Are you alright?"

"Thanks to you."

After standing up she slowly made her way to the shinigami, to which Nnoitora took a bit of an offence.
"H-HEY! WAIT UP!"

Upon reaching the shinigami she knelt down before him.
"Thank you for saving me."

"N-No... thank you Miss!"

Neliel took a quick look at him and frowned.
"You're injured..."
As she tended to the shinigamis wounds with her healing saliva Nnoitora continued.

"Come on! We got to get back to fighting!
Let the medics handle 'em!"

"We must help where we can Nnoitora..."

"Grrrr....
Fine. Just... be quick about it!"
Spoony scratched the back of his neck.
"H-Hey erm... I never properly thanked you, did I?"

"Thank me? For what?"

"For finding me.
For taking me in.
Y-You saved my life.
And... I also want to apologize for being such a bastard."

She gave the male arrancar a warm smile.
"You are so silly Nnoitora!
You don't need to apologize!"

"T-Thanks... Nel."

Omake #4: The Return

"Mmmmm...
What a wonderful dream!"

"Good morning Your Majesty."

"Ah! Good morning Haschwalth."

"Did you sleep well?"

"Oh yes. It was quite pleasurable.
I saw the sun being eclipsed at long last and the gates of heaven opening up.
I assume it was your doing."

The Grand Master nodded.
"Preparations are almost complete.
The new Sun Gate is almost ready.
We just need you to finish things up."

"Very well.
I also witnessed the enemy preparing to attack us.
Let us not waste any more time than we absolutely have to."

As the two of them made their way towards the previously determined area His Majesty inquired Haschwalth about what else transpired in his absence.
"I see.
So even more of my children have abandoned me."

"You sound saddened."

"Merely disappointed.
These heretical behaviors will not be tolerated.
But... I suppose there is little point in actively pursuing them.
Soon all shall receive what they deserve..."

"Speaking of which...
I certainly hope this will work.
You've placed a lot of faith in this one man."

"Can't be helped.
We need him for the time being.
Or more accurately... we need his expertise."

Haschwalth nodded.
"Hopefully he'll keep up his end of the bargain."

"Oh I wouldn't worry about that.
After all... our goals may be different but the path leading to them is the same."

Shortly afterwards they finally arrived to the scene where dozens if not more quincy were preparing some grand ritual.
Carving markings into the ground with blessed silver they worked tirelessly to complete the sacrificial altar.
His Majesty made his way to the one overseeing the preparations.

"Greetings Adlersflügel."

"Good morning Your Majesty."

"I hope things are going well my son.
I hate being disappointed."

The elderly quincy sighed.
"Well you've given me quite a task.
If it weren't for your instructions... well... I probably couldn't have done it.
But in theory it should work... if given sufficient amounts of energy."

"I'll handle that.
How long?"

"Soon.
A few minutes tops."
>>
Once the last of the sorcerers finished their work they were quick to announce it.
And once they had the attention of His Majesty they quickly ran out of the circle.

"Now my children.
Please step aside.
Your father has some work to do."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdp_g-RYjQI

Taking several steps ahead it took His Majesty a good two minutes to get to the absolute center of the circle, given its size and his slow pace.
But once he got there it felt like the world itself was trembling in his presence.
Extending both of his hands he began chanting in an unknown tongue and roman numerals began trickling out of his palms and onto the circle.
Were it not for the protective barrier the Sekki Stone has formed around Silbern the entire Soul Society could've felt his power rising.

Slowly the runes began to swell with power and they let out a blue glow.
As the blue aura became readily apparent the next phase of the ritual commenced.
The light became more pronounced as the ground under it darkened until it was all pitch black.
Both the tiniest pebbles and the largest buildings in the surrounding area shook uncontrollably.

Finally it happened.

From the pitch black darkness something emerged.
It was massive in size and terrifying to look at.
Its mere presence was enough to shake even the most tenacious quincy to the core.
Except His Majesty of course.

However as he looked at what he managed to conjure up he grew dissatisfied.
"You dare to reject me?"
He smiled.
"Fine. Be that way.
Resist.
You shall learn to fear and respect my power soon enough.
Now... I shall educate you... Nobody can oppose me.
...
Bankai."

Yhwach jammed the tip of Zanka no Tachi into the massive slab of stone and it let out an explosion.
The construct shook uncontrollably, the chains attached to it sang in pain as they clanged against each other.
Soon the two skeletal figures holding together the gates of Hell parted uncontrollably and the otherworldly realm laid bare in front of the Quincy King.
He let out a smile once more.

"I am more than your equal Hell.
You'd do well to learn this!"

However he did not have much time to gloat as the outlines of a figure emerged from that infernal hole.

Chains erupted from the gate as well as Hell itself in an attempt to stop the would-be escapee.
But they were broken apart as quick as they were manifested and they fall harmlessly to the ground.
The figure finally stepped through the border of Hell and without the chains holding him back, he was free.

No longer wanting the gate around His Majesty banished it back where it came from and looked at the figure clad in gold.
"Welcome back...
Aizen Sosuke."

"Thank you.
It's good to be back.
You are "His Majesty" I assume."

"Correct.
But My Lord will suffice.
Now... I don't expect you to kneel.
I just care about one thing."

"The Oken.
Of course."
Aizen raised up his arm and it emitted even more of a glow than the rest of his armored body.
"It's here."

"Was it difficult?"

"No, not really.
After all Hell has an abundance of souls to use.
Creating the Oken there was almost trivial really.
The only uncertainty here was you staying true to your word."

"I honor my debts.
But I understand your concerns.
I'm sorry I couldn't meet you in there myself but Hell isn't too keen on visitors."

"Yes... your children met quick and rather gruesome ends there I'm afraid."

"That's okay.
They knew what the future had in store for them.
They made their peace beforehand."
Yhwach sized up Aizen.
"Nice armor."

"Thank you."
Aizen looked at the golden bones covering his body.
"One last "gift" from Hell."

"Well... shall we get started?
Our mutual friends are getting rather restless."

"After you."

You look around you as the different gateways have successfully merged into a single massive one.
Both above and under you are several squads of your troops neatly lined up.

"WELL!
I kinda forgot this is a thing that could happen...
No matter."
You reach for your ear and activate your communicator.
"Okay men.
The plan remains the same.
Happy hunting."

Simultaneously several units began screaming as they all took off.
As soon as they departed you also followed suit and jumped.
Landing heavily on the ground you felt it cracking under your boots.

Sizing up the situation you start thinking about how to approach the battle as fights start breaking out all around you.
On one hand the idea of all your enemies reviving once more is worrying, on the other it's highly unlikely that they can pull of a stunt like that again given how much power it takes.

"Let's go..."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyKc7j8GwSA

Taking a step first you then immediately disappear from sight.
Using your Pesquísa you scanned the entire Seireitei for the highest concentration of power.
Quickly your eyes snap to the very center of the area.

However as you use Sonído to move as fast as possible your senses also pick up something else.
Something unnatural, something you've never felt before.
"What in the-"
You wonder out loud as you attempt to make heads or tails of the reiatsu you sense.

"It reminds me...
It reminds me of something.
But... but what?
This sensation is so alien yet so... familiar."

But as you wondered out loud you failed to pay attention to your immediate surroundings.
Only by being hit with a karate chop to the neck did you manage to snap back into reality.
Your eyes moved around to look at the one who assaulted you even if your body remained motionless.

"Was that supposed to hurt?"
You speak to the quincy who doesn't actually seem to be too surprised by this outcome.

Hopping backwards quickly before you attacked him in response.
"Not really.
I just wanted to know if you are as dangerous as they say you are."
The quincy rubs his hands.
"Forgive me for attacking like that but I couldn't miss such an opportunity."

Loudly giving your neck two cracks you look at him.
"I'm more mad at myself for letting my guard down.
And I'm a bit surprised you apologized."

Raising both his hands the man assumes some sort of a stance. He appears to be a martial artist.
"I just dislike attacking in such a manner.
But I had to get your attention somehow."

"I see.
So you want to stand in my way."

"Correct.
You are our highest priority target after all.
Well? Shall we get started?"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA5vZT6bi-s

Unwinding your shoulders a bit you raise up both of your knuckles and assume your boxing stance.
The prospect of fighting this man intrigues you.
He's the one who makes the first move.
>>
Right off the bat this quincy seems to be quite different from the rest of his kind.
He seems to have Blut Arterie active instead of Vene which is already unusual but his apparent preference for close quarters combat and his refined technique make him quite divergent from the norm.

He starts off with a low kick which you just let through.
It hits the backside of your knee but while it'd be effective against a human opponent, it doesn't do much against someone with Híerro.
His next two attacks are much more important to block however.
Two punches follow one another, his hands filled to the brim with reishi.

The strike from the right you block with your forearm while you move your left hand and grab hold of the quincys arm before he could land a hit.
However he isn't as dim witted as you thought him to be as he quickly kicks you with one leg.
But instead of pulling back his leg he instead moves the other and begins walking on your chest and flipping backwards.

Contorting his body he managed to gain some distance from you even though his right arm is stuck firmly in your grasp.
Using his free hand he opens his palm and strikes your stretched out upper arm.
The shock that traveled through your limb was enough to lessen your hold on the Quincy and he breaks free.
Reeling back a bit you are left wide open for his follow up attack with the same open palm.
Slamming his hand into your chest he manages to knock you away a few feet.

As you slide backwards you slam down your legs and increase the friction you generate on the reishi platforms under you.
Once you came to a stop you just straightened your back and gestured him to come at you again.
He doesn't flinch and neither does he crack a smile.
Instead he charges you stoically once more.

But this time you are not willing to take part in his game and ramp up your speed.
To his credit he manages to knock aside a few of your punches but once you landed a solid hit on him it was apparent how much of a difference there was between the two of you.
Flying backwards much harder than when you were knocked back he struggles to stop himself.
After stabilizing himself he wipes a drop of blood off the side of his mouth.

"It's true what they say about you after all.
You truly are a monster among monsters."

"Thank you."

"I suppose this means I can't take you lightly anymore."

You raise an eyebrow at that.
The fact that he was holding back up until now makes him at least a little interesting for you.

>Fight him on equal ground, raise your power only if he does

Drawing your blade you prepared yourself for what was about to come.
"Mend and Maim...
Basilisco!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMWnoJhBNF8

With an eruption of force your true form is revealed.
The Quincy raises his arm in front of his face in order to block the massive wall of wind that you created.
As his cape bellowed in the wind you spoke to him.

"I believe we haven't been properly introduced yet Quincy.
Kaizar Soize."

"Cang Du."

Raising a hand you clear the area with but one casual swipe.
Standing in your full glory you look at Cang Du who already assumed his stance once more.
He doesn't let any emotions show on his face.
And judging by his heartbeat he is still very much calm.

With Sonído you took the initiative and appeared in front of the quincy with your fists clenched.
Pulling back your hand you delivered a punch aimed at his guts.
However your low blow quickly came to a halt when he moved his open palm in front of your fist.
After a loud thud you found your hand strangely stationary... and numb.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hcwo7BuK-1k

Looking down you saw that not only did he stop your attack he also didn't take any damage from it what so ever.
His hand looked as healthy as they were a second ago.
Curious given how he wasn't able to match you in strength before.
However you did not have much time to wonder about that as he quickly drove his palm into your gut once more.
Only this time it knocked the wind out of you.

Hunched forward you couldn't help but spit uncontrollably at Cang Du who hardly even reacted to it.
"I'll take that as a compliment."

Suddenly you feel the impact of his fists all over your body and you are sent flying much like he was.
The only difference between your situations is the fact that you could recover almost instantly.
Standing upright you were forced into being defensive once more.
As Cang Du began charging, you started talking to him while attempting to parry his strikes.

"You are an interesting one Quincy."

His attacks were lightning fast and they stung quite a bit every time they landed.
Even when you blocked them he still managed to inflict damage upon you as your arms grew number.

"Thank you."

Realizing that he'll overwhelm you unless you act quickly you quickly swing your tail around and raise it as a shield.
Obviously surprised by this Cang Dus fists linger on your tail as you prepare your counter attack.
Quickly charging a small Cero you push your hand forward and into the Quincys face.
Moving aside your tail the glowing ball of reishi is revealed and you unleash your attack from a point blank range.

As the explosion ends and the dust clears you are greeted to the image of Cang Du.
And your eyes widen when you see that the only thing that was affected by your blast were his clothes.
Suddenly you feel a sharp pain in your guts.

"Sorry."
>>
>parade of mediocrity intensifies
>>
Your opponent quickly pulls out the claws that he manifested in an instant, causing your blood to flow freely.
He moves away from you and gives you time to observe the damage he inflicted.
Lowering your hands you feel around the affected area and find four holes in your Híerro.

"Forgive me but your skin was thicker than I thought.
I wouldn't have botched up the attack if you allowed me to feel out your defenses better."

You grin at that and straighten your posture.
Before speaking up you waited a moment for your regeneration to kick in for dramatic effect.
"Don't worry about it.
It'll go away in a second."

"Hmph...
How bothersome."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Q3JqbXXWZE

Smiling a bit you use Sonído and close the distance between the two of you.
Unleashing a flurry of blows on the Quincy you try capitalizing on the fact that he can't defend properly against you with those weapons getting in his way.
However your plan fails almost immediately as they vanish into thin air.

"Bothersome indeed..."
You speak up as you continue your assault.
Meanwhile Cang Du keeps parrying you with his bare hands. Seems like he only relies on this as a defensive measure and doesn't use Blut Vene at all.
"Tell me Quincy, how come you fight in melee?
Seems like a odd thing for one of your kind."

As you land a few lucky blows while mixing kicks, punches and tail whips Cang Du responds to you.
"We traditionally use ranged weaponry due to our fear of Soul Suicide.
I however find that idea abhorrent.
It is a sign of weakness, of fear.
If we die when we make a mistake then so be it!
I'll just make sure to never fail! I won't be bound by such weakness!"

Quickly he shoved his palm forward and unleashed a wave of force from it.
Normally you'd chalk that up to his martial arts wizardry, however it was very clear that it was just a wall of reishi.
But strangely enough it wasn't actually dense enough to have such an effect.
Something's afoot.

As you tumble a few steps backward you begin analyzing what just happened and just what's up with this strange quincy.
He however notices this and quickly gets your attention.

"Shouldn't you be more focused on the fight?"

"I am."

"I see.
Then how about I show you something more interesting?
Bankai..."

Your eyes open wide.

As his icy wings unfold you can't help but grin at him.
"Oh... so you have one too?"
Finally this got a reaction out of him.
Drawing your knife you spun it around your finger for a bit before tossing it up in the air and snatching it out from there.
"SCORCH! MERA!"

Suddenly your zanpakuto began glowing with heat and you charged the quincy.
Clashing with your blade against his claws you began pushing him back.

"It's kinda small isn't it?"

Suddenly you could hear a voice in the back of your mind.
"THAT'S IT! HE DIES!"

In that instant a powerful stream of fire shot out from your blade and past Cang Du but not before incinerating a few locks of his hair out of existence.
"Don't insult my sword anymore if you value your life!"

"I see..."
He muses as he raises the wing of Daiguren Hyorinmaru to attack you with.

As the ice from his wings encroaches you decide it's best if you retreat for now.
Jumping back you slice the air in front of you and send out waves of heat to melt the ice with.
The quincy merely frowns at this and reforms the water into more icy projectiles which he proceeds to bombard you with.

With a mixture of Balas and fiery slashes you manage to melt or obliterate most of Cangs attacks.
And once it became apparent that you can sufficiently keep him at bay you inched your way towards him.
In but a few moments you were right in front of him and grabbed him by the collar.
Moving your arm with as much force as you could muster you hurled him to the ground.

Landing heavily his shaking legs struggled to support him.
He couldn't help but look up at you.
Just as his eyes managed to read your movement you were already well on your way towards him.
Not being able to save himself he raised his wings and conjured up a protective globe of ice around himself.

Laughing at this like a maniac you attempted to drive Mera straight into the wall in order to melt it completely.
However her blade bouncing off of it upon impact took you by surprise.
Looking down at the spherical barrier you saw that the ice turned matt black.
Frowning at that you gave it about a dozen good whacks and found attempting to break it open futile.
Jumping away from the area you eagerly awaited for the quincy to lower his impregnable defenses.

Once the ice crumbles away and its original bluish white color returns you cross your arms in front of you and tap your feet against the ground impatiently.
"Quite a dirty trick you got there.
I assume that's how you were capable of defending yourself against my attacks...
And how you managed to inflict damage onto me."

"I am sternritter I - The Iron, Cang Du.
I was hoping you wouldn't figure out my Schrift so easily."

"It was hard not to."
You wave him off.
"Not using Blut for defense kinda gave it away.
I get that it would've been pointless but if deception was your goal then you just aren't very good at it."

"You're right. I'm not a good liar."
He raises his claws.
"But it was something I had to do when faced with someone like you."
Now he put his hands together and began focusing reishi into them.
Suddenly two serpent like figures formed around both claws that began intertwining until they merged into one large snake head.
"Shé Jìn Zhǎo!"
He screamed as he fired off his rather unique looking projectile.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI-Takf76RY

As the serpents head flew closer you braced for impact and good thing too because you saw the blue reishi construct changing to a more darker color mid flight.
Cangs newly infused attack hit you with a surprising amount of force.
Even such an attack with this low of a reishi density managed to pack quite a punch when he used his Iron on it.
And it's definitely not the strength of regular old iron either.

Exerting some extra force you managed to stop the attack in its tracks and even pry the snakes mouth open.
Now with it under control you tossed it to the side and allowed it to fly somewhere else.
Only to find that Cang Du has launched several black icicles at you while you were busy with his other attack.
Staring at these projectiles you quickly gave it a thought whether or not it's even useful using Mera against them.
Deciding it's not worth the risk you instead attempted to dodge them.

Swaying from left to right you began walking forward, observing the trajectory of each ice attack and attempted to side step them.
For the most part it was a success however your focus broke at the very last moment as you messed up your step and the icicle was driven into your shoulder.
With its heavy weight and high speed the thing got hammered into you like a nail.
Grunting slightly you grabbed the needle like object and pulled it free as you could already feel the cold damaging your cells.
>>
"It's beautiful isn't it?"

"Huh?"

"You could say that my power is much like the idea of Chi.
When infused into something its strength increases greatly.
I'm quite proud of it.
But sadly even that pales in comparison to this Bankai.
I must say I'm quite envious of its master..."

"Is that why you stole it?"

"No... because I was given orders to do so.
Stealing such a wonderful power made me... conflicted.
So I decided the right thing would be for me to kill him. At least then he won't miss it then."
He flaps his wings around as he looks at them.
"I've grown fond of this bankai.
Especially because it works so well with my own power.
Better than my own Vollständig anyway."

"You've become awfully talkative all of a sudden."

Realizing how he was rambling up until now Cang Du collects himself.
"Forgive me.
This doesn't usually happen."

You begin to wonder...
He seems awfully fond of that stolen zanpakuto of his.
This could be a good opportunity.

Rather not break Ice shota's dragon if we can help it.

>>
>>2155530
He is alive.
This just means Cang wants to hunt him down extra hard.
Because it'd be a mercy kill
>>
>>2155559

Well that's pretty fucked up in the head then.

Hell if he felt that bad about it why not just give it back to the guy.

"I stole your car, its so fucking awesome. I should probably gut you like a trout because how can you live without a car like this?"

>>2155622
I mean if I was Ice Shota i'd probably wanna be dead anyway, considering id be the worst character in the series at that point.

>>2155622
Okay so here's his situation:

>Your great ancestor / Literal fucking GOD told you to steal someones bike
>You do it but it turns out the bike is literally the best thing in the world and you love it
>However it's literally a piece of the previous owners soul who now doesn't have it
>You can't give it back because you get Auswahlend if you do and you don't really want to give it back anyway
>Decide to spare the guy from any further suffering that he may experience because a piece of his soul got stolen
>>
>>2155622
Well there is a big difference between a bankai and a car. Mainly because a bankai is kind of part of their soul or some shit.

But it's Toshiro so him dying is probably a mercy. Then he doesn't have to see his waifu get stabbed a billion fucking times like her fetish dictates. Bitch practically hurls herself at sharp objects.
>>
>>2155638
so basically Cang is Kangz?
>>
>>2155640
By being stabbed a billion times you mean by Ashidos benis? Because that's a bit worse than seeing her murdered over and over again

Anyways I guess attacking Hyorinmaru won?
I don't really want to give Cang cancer just yet so yeah...

If you don't want to give it back then fucking own it.

Don't paint it like your doing the guy some fucking service.

It's not a mercy killing it's a robbery and you're making sure to kill the guy you just stole from.
>>
>>2155664
It's a mercy killing because being Toshiro is suffering.
>>
>>2155664
Erm he has no problems with owning it.
Once he guts Ice shota like a fish he'll probably treat it very well because he likes it so damn much.

It's also kind of an order from Yhwach himself that anyone who steals a bankai has to kill the person he stole it from.
Granted I didn't mention this in the quest yet but it was in the mango

Seriously, he was told Ichigo was going to end up killing him so what does he do? He tries to Ivan Drago him instead of just tearing his head from his body and being done with it. Stop trying to break his will and just break his neck dammit.

You get a devilish idea into your head.
Tilting your knife up slightly you began whispering to her.

"Mera..."

"Yes?"

"Start raising the temperature."

You hear her snickering a bit.
"How much?"

"How much do you think?"

Now she was laughing hysterically.
"ROGER!"

With the blade of her knife glowing hotter every second you looked Cang Du in the eyes.
You did not say a word, your glare alone was enough to convey your message.
"You are screwed."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VHL0z3zcaA

Quickly you brought down your knife and stabbed it into the ground at your feet.
Suddenly a wave of heat spread outward in a circle around Mera.
Whatever material the surface was made out of did not matter as it rapidly began heating up.
As soon as it began glowing red with heat all things touching the ground began sizzling with the exception of your feet because you cladded them in a protective layer of reishi as a precaution.

Seeing this rapid reaction Cang Du took to the skies with his wings and looked down at you in confusion.
Judging by his expression he was probably trying to figure out the reason behind this act of yours.
However he grew bored of it rather fast as it made little difference to him why you were doing this, it would not matter for his Iron.

Flapping his wings he attempted to create more icy projectiles around himself which he could then coat in his power.
But as he started wiping the sweat off of his forehead things finally clicked for him and his eyes snapped to the side.
He was sweating because of the smouldering heat radiating off the ground.

"Your ice isn't working!"
You pointed it out as you rushed towards Cang Du while leaving Mera in the ground.
Now standing face to face with the quincy you pulled back your fist in preparation.

He cladded his wings in his black iron and moved them in front of you to act as a shield.
Sadly his wings were dripping as the heat already started to melt them away alongside whatever ice it generated.
Once your fist connected it shattered the beautiful wings of Daiguren Hyorinmaru like black glass.
Looks like even Cang Dus mighty Iron can only do so much when the thing he intended to reinforce became so structurally weak.
>>
>>2155797
Yeah, great Bankai. It doesn't have any extremely exploitable glaring weaknesses or anything.
>>
>>2155817
But it's super pretty
>>
Still surprised that his bankai broke apart Cang Du was not capable of dodging your attack and your punch hit him in the face with full force.
The sound of the two impacts was fierce and made your ears ring a little.
But in turn the attack sent him flying fast enough to cause him to penetrate the sound barrier.
Iron or not he must have felt that.

Indeed when he finally manages to get back on his feet he seems to be quite unstable as his legs shook.
Giving you a dazed look it was obvious that he suffered a mild concussion.
"S-So much... power."

"Yeah..."
You cracked your fingers one by one.
"But sadly that wasn't as strong as it could've been."

"Huh?"

"You see..."
Pulling back your hand you tensed up the string of mucus in it.
Quickly in response to your motion Cang Du flew back to you.
Once he was right in range of your fists again you spoke up.
"I like having options more!"

Now with him being dazed it was impossible for him to properly defend himself.
The second punch did not have as much force behind it as the first one as it had to be tailored for a human but it still managed to inflict more damage upon him.
As his unconscious body began falling for the ground you quickly ordered Mera to turn off the heat while you quickly spun a net to catch him in it.
With the quincy captured you flew to a somewhat more cool area and set him down on a rooftop so he wouldn't be burnt.

After shooting a mercury bullet at Mera you pulled her back as well and sheathed her.
"So... what are you gonna do about him?"

"Hogyoku...
Is there a way to return the stolen Bankai without killing him?"

"Smashing the medallion should suffice.
According to my calculations at least."


Taking the trinket off of him you crushed it into dust with but one step and you felt the reiryoku imprisoned within escaping.
That left only the matter of Cang Du himself.

Placing one hand on it you began focusing on him and slowly but surely he fizzled out of existence.
As you stand up you are absolutely sure that he arrived back at base safely.

"Well then...
Let's get back to it."

Turning around you faced the center of Silbern, the largest building around the place.
Kinda obvious when you think about it.
The remainder of your journey towards the palace went by without any additional interruptions.

But upon arriving you found yourself at the front door doubting yourself.
"I-Is that it?
No guards? Nothing?"

"Maybe they realized it's pointless trying to stop you?"

"Be careful Master...
Though there may be no guards I sense several presences inside."


Sighing deeply you raise your leg.
"Yeah. Got it."

From the force of your kick the massive castle doors broke off the hinges and flew forward heavily.
As they tore through several large columns you made your way in and your senses alerted you almost immediately that something was amiss.
Indeed your ears quickly picked up a strange sound. Clapping.
Slow clapping.

"Now that's quite the entrance!
No, really!
I'd enter everywhere like that if I could!
Even if it meant replacing the door every time."

Not wasting any time you drew your sword and started looking around.
Most shockingly you did not really have to search for long as the owner of this voice quickly made himself known.
Walking out from behind one of the still intact pillars the man kept clapping.

"Whoa... easy there friend!
I'm not here to pick a fight!"
He spoke.

"Then get out of my way.
I have business with your boss."

"Oh I can imagine!
But I'll let you in on a little secret friend.
Whether you stay here or run to him doesn't matter one bit.
Ya see..."
The man pulled out a basket from behind the pillar.
"Oh... do you mind if have a little picnic while we talk?"

"N-No?"
You answer awkwardly.

"Awesomesauce!"
The quincy then proceeded to unpack his lunch while continuing his speech.
"So mister big bad manperson.
His Majesty has already completed his plan and it is set to go off any minute now.
There is literally nothing that you can do to stop it. Trust me. Don't even bother.
Now don't be alarmed! It's nothing dire or anything like that."
He shrugs.
"In fact once it's done you can go ahead and follow His Majesty to kick his ass or whatever it is that you have planned.
But the fact that he'll leave remains."

"Leave?
He's leaving?"

"Yeap."
He points up.
"He's going to the next stage.
And most of us? Well we'll be the sacrificial lambs so to speak.
Right now the job of the average quincy is to hold You and your little pals up for as long as possible while His Majesty wins."

"And you are sharing this with me because?"

"Because why not?
It will happen. You will figure it out on your own anyway.
There is no reason not to."

"And I thought that since we have time we might as well have a little chat.
After all you are the Big Bad that His Majesty painted on the wall.
And now you're here.
You are an interesting fellow and I have a few questions to you.
So what do you say?
Care to join me for a cup of coffee?
Just to have you know I make a KILLER latte!"

You look around in confusion.
"Is this some sort of a trap?"

"Nah.
You can leave if you want.
You could barge in on His Majesty right this instance.
But it'd be about as useful as pissing in the wind."

With a shrug you begin walking towards the doorway but you pay extra close attention the the man who is currently enjoying his meal so he doesn't try anything funny.
But apparently he really just wants to enjoy his box of doughnuts with his coffee.
However once you enter the doorway he calls after you.

"What? Are you not even going to attack me?
I even made sure to not wear a turtle neck today!
Here I am presenting my most vulnerable spot for you and you are not even going to take advantage of it?
I went through the trouble of smearing barbecue sauce on my neck for crying out loud."

"No... I... just wanted to leave..."

He starts pointing at you while wiping powdered sugar off of his face.
"You see this is what I'm getting at!
You are a hollow who doesn't just murder people!
That's so bizarre!
Are you really, absolutely, positively, super-duper sure you don't want to chat?
As I said it's kinda pointless to go up there."

Saying that the man got your attention would be an understatement.
Given how there is a war outside and his people are in the process of being overrun by a bunch of very zealous people he is still very nonchalant about... everything.
So you decided to go against your better judgement and sit down beside him.

Once properly seated he turns to you.
"Do you like coffee?"

"Why yes."

"Really? Me too!"
And with that he returned to his latte while you were left sitting there wondering how did it all come to this.
"But anyways.
I'm very grateful about you taking up my offer!
Not many people would do that while their comrades are being butchered out there!"

Okay, that got you annoyed.
"As far as I know it's you guys who are getting obliterated.
Because we have a better army."

"Oooooh better army! Woooo!
Big whoop."
He leaned in closer to you.
"Listen.
You and I both know that "armies" and "numbers" don't mean shit around here.
Get a sufficiently strong guy and you can throw as many grunts as you want at them, it won't change a thing.
In the end what matters is just who has the biggest, blackest dick around here.
I know... ironic given all those proverbs but it's the cold hard truth.
And I hate to break it to you but we have... One two three four five... Six reality warpers on our side while you guys lost one of your heavier hitters and we stole his bankai.
Sad but it's the truth.
Also I don't know if you've been paying much attention but you guys were carrying the shinigami on your back up until now.
Really it was a misplay on our part to anger you because we'd have won otherwise."

"Your point?"

"My point- *slurp* - my point is that in the end things will probably devolve into one final, climactic duel of fates.
And as much of a fuhuhuhucking horrific reputation you have, my money is still on His Majesty.
I hope this doesn't make us enemies or anything I'm just stating my opinions here.
A'ight? Good."

"Now before I actually get to my point I think it's also worth discussing the "Why"s and not only the "How"s.
Why do you fight exactly Mister Kaizar?"

"Just Kaizar."

"Okay Just Kaizar."

"...
I fight because you fuckers attacked my home."

"And so you genocide us!
Talk about over reacting."

"To be fair most of you people gave me plenty of reasons to erase you from the face of this planet."

"True.
But now here's my reason for fighting.
I don't fight for anything so... simple.
Now don't get angry! Simple can be good.
However... His Majesty seeks to right the wrongs of history.
To undo that massive fuck-up that was the Soul King, to correct the mistakes of creation and remake the entire world from the ground up.
His end goal is a utopia for everyone!"

"His and every other psychopaths who think they are changing the world for the better."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-riLQjemQjk

"Let me finish!"
The quincy kicked back and managed to somehow relax even more than he already has.
"Personally... I don't give a shit.
Sure I heard the sermons. "No death, no pain and endless happiness" blah blah blah.
Heard it once, heard it a thousand times. Still not buyin' it.

However.
Unlike every other retard who goes on a killing spree, His Majesty has two things that elevate him.
He knows how the world works and how to change that.
This means that once he reaches his goals he WILL be capable of remaking life as we know it from the ground up.
Even if it fails, even if it will be nothing like he promised... it'd be different.
It'd be something unique, something never before seen.
And frankly I've had enough of this shit world.
Just imagine: For the first time since creation... things would be different."

You pause at that.
"What are you talking about?"

"Let me ask it this way...
How long have you been immortal?"

>tfw he just wants things to be different because he's seen it all and he's bored

Bruh, can you imagine how boring life would be if it was -perfect-? Literally nothing would be going on because everyone is actually okay and has no reason to be upset.

This is why the only perfect life is to live in Valhalla. Because you'll still die, and it'll still hurt, but you'll come back. And at the very, very end you get to die for good in the glorious final battle and so you don't have to worry about being immortal forever.

Personally I think we did a pretty good job back home.

Sure you live forever, but there's shit to do, stuff to eat, games to play, people to bang, ect. ect.

Hell you can even have kids and shit.

No pets yet but I'm sure we can figure something out.

Your eyes widen.
"What do you mean?!"

"I've read the reports.
Actually read them, not glance over like most of our "elite" soldiers.
You've survived things no man should and you recovered every time.
No... You became better.
How long?"

You suddenly realize what he's getting at.
"Since I became a hollow.
Some 70 years ago."

"I clocked over a thousand not so long ago.
I've been around since the first war between shinigami and quincy.
Though I didn't do much fighting back then. Shinigami used to be actually tough opponents.
And I don't like fighting when I can't curb stomp the enemy.
But back to the topic at hand...
How long do you think it'll take before you had enough? It doesn't really matter because it'll happen sooner than you think.
Once you truly comprehend how everything stays the same for ever you'll do anything for the slightest stimuli, the slightest change in the monotony of it all."

"I-Is that what motivates you?"

"I motivate myself so I actually move around and do stuff instead of vegetating in a corner.
I can't even say that I'm fighting against my suicidal tendencies because that's just not an option for me.
But I see that doubtful look in your eyes.
You seem to care about your friends and family. What will you do when they wither away and die?
Kill yourself? Must be nice to be able to. But that's still the easy way out."

"Have you stared down the barrel of a gun before?
Fighting all your natural instincts isn't exactly easy.
Besides... do you think a utopia will stimulate you?
What happens when you get bored again?!"

"Do I look retarded to you?
A perfect existence? A utopia?
Fairy tales. All of them. It will fail without a doubt.
But that's not the point.
The point is if it can be done once..."

You tighten your fists so much that your claws started drawing blood from your palm.

>Stalin promised that, Hitler promised that. Its the same lie we repeat to ourselves over and over again to get us out of a bad time, The only issue is. Everybody but a select few suffer because of it.

Seconded.

We've heard this bullshit spiel before and we ain't buying.
>>
>>2156614
>"If you want some interesting change, just look at where things are going without needing to destroy the world and remake it. Never before have shinigami and hollows united. The world will change so drastically no matter who wins, that it can barely be imagined what it'll look like in a hundred years from now. In the living world, technology has evolved to mind-boggling complexity in just the 70 years I've been dead. Besides that, if you truly end up hating your immortality, someone like me...could remove that without any issue. You could age and die peacefully in your bed someday, if you wish it. With a family, maybe."

>"Well maybe you think that's the way to go about it, but I'm not gonna sit around and let someone wannabe god bitch tell me how to carry out MY afterlife!"
>Punch him

>>2156654
>>2156669
To clarify he's not referring to trying to make a new utopia again.
He just says that if you can remake the world once you can do it again and again and again, making it at least interesting
>>
>>2156614
Oh so his game is to do a cycle of new "perfect worlds". What an idiot, doesn't he realize eventually he'll start seeing the same "different, better world"? What a coward. Just kill yourself my man, even "gods" run out of ideas and it doesn't matter who they are, it'll all bleed together.

For a bored cynic he doesn't seem to see the all-encompassing futility of eternal life. I say literally spit in his eye so he undergoes soul suicide. But he'd just move.

>Leave
>>
>>2156677
Oh..I'm retarded, just leave then
>>
>>2156677

Hell, that's even worse.

You're performing genocide out of boredom, destroying entire worlds, societies, cultures, just because you get tired of them.

He's asking us to let this madman turn the world, nay, the entire sphere of existence into a fucking Sim game.
>>
>>2156677
I think we're pretty attached to this world though considering all the friends and family we've made in our brief 70 years of immortality.

So who the hell is this guy to say he's fine with rewriting it all on the off chance he has 'fun'.
>>
>>2156677
He's still dumb. If you genuinely live forever you will eventually see every single thing you possibly can. He has no foresight.

Standing up from the blanket you began walking away.
But on your way you spoke up.

"I'll deal with your so called god like I did with all the rest.
And once his plan fails... and you will cause trouble... you'll be next.
Quincy."

"Just don't bite off more than you can chew."

With your business with the quincy concluded you left him to his coffee and made your way to the stairs.
Looking up at them you felt a newfound drive.

And that about does it for this thread.

Sudden revelation.
The hogyoku activated sooner than it predicted.
Its in constant proximity to einherjar.
Its being subjected to them like kaizar and mera. Made stronger, slowly but surely. They examine what is, deconstruct it, make it better. When it was depleted of power, the deconstruction was easier.
