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.
"Ok now I just have to sit and wait. Hopefully a few shinigami have responded to the message I sent out. I can't do this alone..." I said as I walked around the earth forest. Not only was I not strong enough to take out them all but a few stronger guys might enter. We need to be ready.
I hit a tree with all of the worries I felt at that time. I felt 3 spiritual pressures come forth. "Finally you are hear. Our mission is to take out a couple hundred hollows and I don't think I mentioned the two meno's grandes that might show up."
A senkai gate opened in front of the girl as the doors split a high spiritual pressure could be felt, oozing out of the doors. A shinigami stepped out, as the senkai gates doors closed slowly behind him. The bright light made it hard to make who it was, but when the senkai gate vanished it was clear. The shinigami who stood a mere few feet from the girl was Jube Imagi. His hazel eyes stared at her, with that emotionless cold look of his, as he turned giving his back. He already knew the details of the mission, he had been basically forced to come here by the vice captain of his squadron.
The shinigami stood with his eyes closed waiting for the others to arrive, his cloak danced gently with the gust of wind. As his hair was pushed to the side, Jube seemed to be in a state of meditation waiting for the moment to attack. His plan was to end this quickly.
The girl looks upward, noticing a strong reiatsu coming from the trees above her. Upon closer inspection she would notice a man wearing a yellow tunic, with black clothes underneath sitting on the branch of a tree, his eyes closed. Ryu had been in the world of the living when his Captain had called him about this mission. Ryu sighed gently. He hated fighting... but this was for a greater good, so he would have to suck it up. He opens his eyes and looks down at the others, then stands up, leaning against the trunk of the tree.
"I hope this is over quickly" Ryu comments to himself.
"Oh come on, it'll be fun" Kaminari, his Zanpakuto's spirit, exclaims.
"Maybe..." Ryu says back, a small smile on his lips. Jumping from the tree he lands a few feet from the other two. A man and a woman. He had not seen either of them before. Ryu smiles and rubs the back of his head. "The name is Ryu, nice to meet both of you" he says.
The message was received, her speed with with Shunpou is undeniable, with blinding swift movements moving from one tree branch to the next with all the silence one would expect of a proper assassin. In a burst of crimson smoke she would vanish, no incantation, nor did she need to announce the spell loudly - just a quiet inaudible and Bakudo No. 21 spell was easily cast for her, vanishing entirely from sight with its smoke. Where she would reappear it was anyone's guess who attempted to follow her. A precautionary action on her part.
For the little kunoichi to get to her destination, it did not take her long at all. In a flash of sheer speed she appeared at the edges of the three other gathered Shinigami. She stood calmly and quietly awaiting details for the mission and the call to move out.
I felt 3 spiritual pressures come forth. "Finally you are hear. Our mission is to take out a couple hundred hollows and I don't think I mentioned the two meno's grandes that might show up." I saw the excitement, and bordom run through their eyes.
"The human we need to protect is name Kanji Simon. He has spiritual preassure that can put Strawberry to shame. Odds are he doesn't know about it yet. I have called you all hear for your great skills. Jube; I have seen you fight it is beyond a great sight. Ryu; your lightning skills are near legendary. And Sasaki; for your great speeds notable for captain in the 2nd division."
I stood to a tree and said," If there are casualties that is why I am hear... Lets go."
When Jo-aun finally said it was time to go, Jube opened his eyes as he turned. He ignored the other two shinigami, he had no intestest in making friends or even knowing there names. He walked over under the tree were Jo-aun was, stopping right next to her. He quietly stared off to wards the direction where he sensed the hollows all gathering, although they were many Jube showed no sign of concern or even being intimidated, his hazel eyes stared with an emotionless gaze. "Stay out of my way, Jo-aun" Jube said in his usual harsh tone, as he kicked off the ground dashing ahead of the group, leaving a row of afterimages behind him, that slowly faded. Jube landed on a tree branch, he used shunpou to go from branch to branch as he got closer to the hollows he reached for the handle of his zanpaktou, a clicking sound was heard as Jube drew the blade out a bit. It was now ready to be swung and drawn out at the same time, to take out the first foolish hollows to come at him.
Ryu watches as Jube begins to leave, he himself walks over to Jo-aun. Patting her or on the shoulder Ryu begins to speak. "Don't worry, he's always like that" Ryu smiles to the girl. Unlike some people he knew, he would actually like to be friends with his team mates. His eyes furrow as he senses several dozen Hollow gathering at one point. "There they are, Jube already has a head start." Ryu smiles, "Thats not fair". Walking away from the group Ryu jumps into the trees, landing on the highest branch. Jumping forward Ryu collects a healthy amount of Reishi beneath his feet, then uses shunpo to move quickly toward the site. He sees Jube beneath him readying himself for the first attack.
"Hado 4; Byakurai" Ryu says, his finger beginning to charge with electricity. He uses his ability to manipulate electricity to contain it and charge the attack. Any Hollow that was foolish enough to come near him would be blasted by the attack, the lightning being powerful enough to tear straight through a Hollow mask.
Without a word Sayuri followed, fading from sight then shimmering back into from tree branch to the next along the way as they headed for their destination. Seeing the mass gathering of Hollows she saw no reason to hold back on her Kidou abilities. With quiet inaudible mumble she vanished in an explosion of crimson smoke, the clear sign of N.21 Bakudo spell, Sekienton, a favored technique amongst the assassins of the Onmitsukido and 2nd Division. In a blink she appeared right in the middle of a large grouping of them inaudibly mumbling, "Hadou No. 63 Raikohou", a great crash of brilliant immense yellow lightning bolts fell from the sky above the particular gathering of minor Hollows Sayuri appeared amongst. With a vanishing flash of speed Sayuri gracefully did a standing backflip high into the air evading the air just before the lightning stuck down where she was standing a second before it hit.
With the explosion of luminescent golden energy vaporizing the particular group of Hollows Sayuri targeted, she shimmered back into view before another grouping. As she stood their with left hand palm up close to her upper mid-section and her middle finger and pointer finger pointing upward to the sky, her body rigid and upright with her heels together - she quietly recited as the minor Hollows she was near bound right for her, "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens.", though as they got halfway to her once again she recited quietly - the Kidou reiastu energies building up even greater, "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens.", huge amounts of cyan hued fiery Kidou spiritual energies built up in her hands as they swirled around her almost like a tornado - it was double incantation to double the spells power, terrifyingly yet - it was being done by a Kidou Master.
The second the minor Hollows bounding for her they only a few meters from where she stood at this point, but those steely eyes of hers snapped open as she planted her right foot back in a wider stance as if to brace herself. She then thrust her hands forward with her wrists together and palms facing front as she called out, "Hadou No. 63 Soren Sokatsui!", a pair of massive illuminating blazing cyan columns of fire exploded from her hands - the great blazing columns entwining with one another as they ripped right through the forest gutting out a huge scar into its face, while any of the minor Hollows in its path were reduced to dust and nothingness.
Sayuri stood nonchalant toward the aftermath of the destruction she unleashed, and then quietly mumbled, "Bakudo No. 21 Sekienton...", with another explosion of red smoke she vanished to find another target...
Jo-aun nodded and bolted towards the hollows. "You all will pay," She said as she went hand to hand combat to most of the bigger ones so the other Shinigami could have a pick as they were distracted. She then started an onslaught of them one by one. But she felt a strange heat boiling in her as she was slaughtering the Hollows. Everyone was doing great and we didn't get and casualties yet, but then the hollows stopped fighting.
They were gathering to a spot in the sky. Each of them had a human in their hands as Jo-aun saw a menos grande... appear. It took one child swiftly as 2 more menos grandes showed up firing ceros.
Jube was easily cutting down the weak hollows with his zanpaktou. He avoided there attacks and countered them, taking them down with one swift slash. This was Jube's style, no wasted movements every movement he made had a purpose, and his attacks always found there mark. Then suddenly the hollows stopped there fighting, as they all gathered up above in the night sky. Jube looked up quietly, he held his zanpaktou firmly waited to see what would happen. Then shockingly enough, Menos Grande began to appear, as they did two fired ceros down at the group. Jube noticed one cero was heading to wards him he quickly used shunpou to dash out of the attacks deadly range. When the cero hit, the ground shook violently as a blood red dome of energy formed momentarily lighting up the ground and releasing a powerful gust of wind. Jube had stopped his moving, he stood as the trees around him shook violently and his cloak pushed against his body, waving wildly as well. He stared up at the Menos Grande silently, the dome of energy slowly faded as a crater was left in the spot of impact if Jube had been hit by that he surely would have died.
The shinigami wasted to time as he held his sword out and turned the handle making a low clicking sound, "Break Kongouseki-Tsurugi" the blade on Jube's zanpaktou suddenly shattered like broken shards of glass the shards of the blade scattered on the floor. Then reiatsu took over the empty space replacing it with the diamond blade, Jube swung the magnificent sword as it reflected the moons light. He rocketed up wards to wards the two Menos Grande to end them swiftly.
