With the Captains suffering casualties and heavy injuries on their side, all hope seemed to be lost... until Shinji Hirako appeared, along with the rest of the former Shinigami. Though the aid of the Vizards certainly helped to draw the battle in their favor, it seemed Aizen's power alone proved too much for them.
The shinigami's regrouping ability is truly pathetic obviously crushing the entire Gotei would be easy if we made several attacks
Haburi watched the ceros get blocked. The menos then began destroying buildings and killing humans again as their opponents had been distracted. The static sound of sonido would be heard as Haburi appeared with his right hand on the gun the human held and he tilted it just enough so the bullet would narrowly miss his comrade. Haburi's sonido would be noticed as above average as his speed was beyond that of most arrancar. Actually most his abilities were he was at a mid ranked (5-7) espada's level. His left hand was still in its pocket however.
"You underestimate us.......These are no ordinary gillian they won't be defeated by someone of your level...."
Haburi spoke emotionlessly. He kept his reiatsu suppressed so it appeared that his comrade was stronger than him which wasn't the case.
"You underestimate us.......These are no ordinary gillian they won't be defeated by someone of your level...."
"Oh? Is that it?" Rang out a voice from the streets below. "Well, if that's the case, then maybe you should take someone on that's a bit more for your liking."
If one were to trace the source of the voice, they would find that there was a human male standing on the street, simply smiling up at the two Arrancar and the hollow that were scattered about the place.
In fact, if anyone were to sense him, they would find that the man gave off no sense of reiastu flowing from him at all. He stood at a little over six feet and wore a long, white lab jacket with a orange hawaiin shirt underneath. He also bore a pair of long dress pants and dress shoes to go with it. His face was nothing out of the ordinary, if one were to take a look at him, they would have to say that he was truely, just... human.
And yet, for some reason, he could see the chaos going on about him.
"How troublesome." The usually goofy man lifted his hand to his face, before letting out a sigh. "Usually, I hate getting myself involved with Shinigami affairs... but I happen to live in this town."
A couple hollow that had gotten over their initial shock turned quickly on him immediately charging at the man. However, they only got within a foot of him before they were instantly repelled by some unseen barrier.
There was a flash of light that emitted from the barrier, pushing all the assaulting hollow back. When the flash dissapated, he simply frowned.
"Gomen nasai. 'Sorry' " He sighed, before pulled a small package from his clothes. "But this is a protection charm, which is meant for protecting faux bodies..."
There was another flash, and a spike in reiastu, when the air cleared, everyone could see that the man had changed completely. He was now in Shinigami robes, with a Zanpakuto strapped to his side. There was also a numberless captain's haori that seemed to be hanging on one shoulder.
"Gomen." Isshin Kurosaki deadpanned, a slight smile playing on the corners of his lips. "But I'm here to cut you down."

Lucia stared at the newcomer. What at first appeared to be a simple human turned out to be another shinigami. No, not another shinigami, this one was different. His reietsu was ridiculous, at least Captain level, which would be hinted by the white haori hanging off of his shoulder. Lucia kept her eyes fixed carefully on the shinigami, he was a bigger threat than the other two, that went without saying.
Lucia placed her hand on her hip, her other arm hanging loosely by her side. "Haburi" she said quietly yet firmly. "I suggest one of us finishes these two while the other one handles him" she said as she pointed to Isshin. "When the human and weaker shinigami are dead, we can both fight the stronger Shinigami" she explained, her eyes were still focused on Isshin. "Do you accept my plan?" she asked, Lucia had respect and loyalty to her superiors, Haburi was technically the one in charge of this mission.

The speed of the female arrancar was incredible. She was before him in an instant, her hand coming at his throat like a spear. Hayashi quickly bent back and to the left narrowly escaping the spear head. Her nails grazed along the right side of his neck opening up an average sized wound. Cuts like these were no stranger to Hayashi. If he had removed his top it would have revealed a body covered in scars from the days he spent in the poorer areas of the rukongai.
Just as Hayashi escaped death the human girl fired a beam from her gun that missed over the head of the arrancar. With the female arrancar slightly distracted Hayashi went on the offensive. He leaped in the air, "MAUL!" His right claw charged with reiatsu and came crashing down towards the female arrancar with thunderous power.
Immediately after the attack Hayashi felt an incredible reiatsu enter the battle. It was that of a captain, no, it was above a captain! But this was no arrancar.....it was a shinigami no doubt. He turned to see a man with a torn haori draped over his shoulder. That signified that he was a captain, no? Hayashi had certainly never seen this man before but there was no time to get names. He quickly shunpo'd behind the man. "These arrancar are incredibly strong. I don't know who you are, and I really don't care. So long as you can take these bastards down, I'll fight alongside you."
Maria's shot missed the arrancar due to a sudden interference by the second arrancar. She quickly puled the gun away and tried to sweep her legs to off balance the arrancar, she followed up with a shot. She laughed at his comment. "I don't care how "special" your gillian are. I can deal with them given enough time."
Maria heard a familiar voice, she turned. At the corner of the street stood Isshin Kurosaki the doctor at the local Kurosaki clinic. She had been to the clinic a few times to handle a couple of wounds. Maria watched as the normal goof of a doctor turned into a shinigami. How ironic. she thought to herself. She was surprised to say the least. There aren't many spiritually attuned people here and even less shinigami that take up permanent residence. Maria took the opportunity and jumped back so she could regroup and get ready to fight.
Haburi easily deflected the shot from Lucon's gun with his right hand which he then pointed towards Hayashi and fired a dark blue bala which his were both faster and stronger than the average arrancar. Hayashi would have next to no time to dodge this attack. Because he already decided to move he would be able to avoid it but his attack would never be finished so there was no threat to his comrade. He stared at the newcomer.
"Shinigami you can't cut me....."
He said emotionlessly. He still stared as Lucia spoke and as she presented her idea he knew it would fail.
"This plan has flaws....."
He pointed with his right hand towards Hayashi..
"He obviously intends to cower behind this new threat as he is afraid of our power therefore the newcomer will protect him if we intend to come near him..."
Haburi's hand returned to his pocket.
"Besides I alone will be enough to handle this threat. I will take him on as you take on the trash......If you feel the need to join me after your finished....Then that is your choice......"
He now directed his speech to the new shinigami....
"If you are so intent on protecting this town why do you let my underlings continue to kill?"
Haburi spoke emotionlessly but did point out the 11 remaining hollows that continued to eat the souls of innocent humans and the monstrous, powered up Gillian that had now reduced nearly 25% of the city to rubble and killed countless humans. They're ignorance was destroying the city they originally intended to protect.
"These arrancar are incredibly strong. I don't know who you are, and I really don't care. So long as you can take these bastards down, I'll fight alongside you."
"That's good." He commented idly to the Shinigami that appeared beside him. "I wasn't about to tell you my name anyways. Just focus on keeping yourself alive, alright?"
The man turned his slightly frowning face to the Arrancar before him, who had clearly taken notice of the man's actions and presence.
"If you are so intent on protecting this town why do you let my underlings continue to kill?"
"Hn... That's a good question." Isshin's former comical face emmerged as he thought about this, meanwhile the hollow continued to consume the souls of people. He thoughtfully began to rub his chin as the screams continued. Not being able to come up with a plausible answer, he simply shrugged. "You're right."
With that, he took his right hand out of his robes, placing it before him in a prayer-like fashion. "Oh, he who has ten thousand wings and is crowned with the name of man."
"With truth and moderation, scratch your nails against the wall of a dream that knows no sin." He muttured, finally lifting his hand and to his side. "Bakudou 99: BANKIN!"
His hand grew a blew aura, flaming and commanding as his reiastu spiked, the very air about his crackling as if it was on fire.
In the direction of his arm, all the hollow that were attacking were immediately bound together by a sheen of golden spiritual cloth, wrapping them in a group. Before any of them could struggle, golden spikes formed in the air and flew into them, causing them to howl in pain and binding them to the cloth, immobilizing them.
Finally, the former Shinigami lifted his hand forming a fist. On command, a golden block of stone formed in the air, raised high above the the hollow's heads.
As soon as he let his fist drop, the block fell, crushing all of it's victoms in one, fell swoop.
"This is kidou." He said simply. "A level of incantations that you Arrancar will never achieve, no matter how much you change to become a Shinigami."
There was, however, all of the hollow to his left, which he simply picked up his charm and threw in that direction, repelling the hollow and protecting the innocent.
"Now that we've wasted enough time." Isshin Kurosaki looked back at the hollow, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "Why don't you go home before I'm forced to draw my blade."

Lucia remained quiet as Haburi commented on her strategy. He said her plan would fail, but he told her to do the exact thing she suggested anyway. She chose to ignore the self contradicting things he said. Lucia turned her back on the Shinigami, confident that Haburi would be competent enough to handle him on his own. She glanced at the woman with the fire arms. She was weakest, she could be taken out quickly. Lucia vanished with a static punctuation, reappearing suddenly behind the human, filling the air with the same sound. She jabbed her hand at the upper back of the human, her hand pointed out wards so that it would travel straight through the woman's body, piercing her heart and ending her life. Just as she did, she also pointed her finger at the first shinigami, the weaker one. Without any warning of charging or usual indicators, a small but precise light blue cero shot toward him, traveling much faster than a normal cero, at more of a Bala's speed. With this quick motion, she would try and kill both the shinigami and the human. If she killed them quickly enough, her and Haburi be able to face the Captain level Shinigami together
