"the smaller ones will come after us. they are drawn to spiritual pressure" Giovanni could sense the Menos' for a while already. and even the smaller hollows at this proximity. To him there was nothing to really worry about. He hid on Ko's command, he really didnt like how close she was letting the Menos get. Especially when one of the smaller hollows caught sight of him as soon as Ko attacked. "hado 4 byakurai" he pointed his two fingers at the hollows and destroyed it with a single flash of blue lightning before turning to face the menos, he held up his palm and for the sake of charging his next kido he recited its incantation. ""Sprinkled on the bones of the beast! Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm. The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle! Hado 63. Raikoho" GIo let loose a large blast of yellow energy that hit the second menos in the face, keeping it from attacking Ko and staggering it. Giovanni ducked another hollow attacking him and reached for his blade. "hado 54" he drew his blade slicing through the attacking hollow in one clean cut as the Kido charged in his blade "Haien" the purplish energy shot from the tip of his blade at the perfect angle to incinerate another hollow that was just appearing out of the woodworks.

Gio was playing it safe, keeping his spiritual energy output higher than his teammates so that the lesser hollows would focus on him so long as they didnt see the others. It also made him a target for the menos but Ko's 'tactic' would keep their attention on her. So long as he could sense the hollows around him, menos included, he didnt really have to worry about the menos getting the jump on him. Another hollow lunged for him but he cut off its arm with a diagonal slice and slammed his fist into its mask shattering it with the Tessho technique.

Send whoever you want I'll kill anyone who dares to challenge the safety of the seretai" he said charging her with the last of his increased speed to charge her using the flash step to get close enough to knock the remote out of her hand. whatever that weapon in her hand was Angelo didn't want to know, he wouldn't want to know what a remote control would do so he needed to stop her before what could be hell started. although he couldn't be off guard cause she might have concealed weapons on her person that Angelo would need to watch out for

"You have such a naive mind for a Shinigami. I can honestly see why you were sent to be slaughtered by the butcher. Well in this case, the butcher happens to be me so time to get my hands dirty again.....huh?" The woman's face widened in surprise before refocusing her attention on the Shinigami who took the oppurtunity to attack at a precise moment. She moved away intime to prevent her entire from being severed but suffered a deep gash and lost grip of the remote in the process. "The target is escaping!!!! Capture him at all costs and leave this one to me." The woman's left hand happened to be leaving droplets of blood on the ground as she pulled herself together. She was a capable despite how she easily let down her guard but pain is pain. "I guess you're officially a wanted man now..." Was all that had escaped her lips before pulling out a dagger and proceeded to stab it in the palm of her already injured hand right after. "Piasu no niku,(Pierced Flesh in English) Deddo Ringu (Dead Ring in English).."

As both Giovanni and Koyo took their places in order to leap out into the battle field, Gustavo quickly looked for a way to flank the enemy in order to catch them off guard. They shouldn't be able to tell that I'm here especially with those two fighting around them he thought to himself, and decided that it would probably be the best coarse of action if they wanted to take out the menos as quickly as possible, so they could defeat the little guys on the bottom with ease. By the time he was about in position Koyo shouted at the two in order for them to start the charge, and it wasn't long before Giovanni followed. As he was heading to the small groups of trees he planned to flank the hollows in, he laughed slightly as he noticed that Giovanni was focused on the hollows that he wasn't at all worried about a few seconds ago, but quickly got focused again.

He finally arrived at a small group of fairly large trees, and he was able to see the backs of the two enormous menos, with their small army of hollows at the bottom not worth counting, but still dangerous enough to note. He let off a slight smile, and turned his left palm towards the menos that Koyo had caused to stagger, and whispered "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south." His voice remained quiet, and calm the entire way through, as a somewhat large red orb, slightly bigger then his hand started to emerge. He then looked at the Menos, as it slightly turned towards him noticing the sudden change in spiritual energy. "Hadō 31 Shakkahō!" he shouted at the top of his longs releasing the large ball towards the menos' face, causing it to stagger into the other one, making it's friend start to lose its balance, and do everything it could not to fall. "Hurry Koyo knock it off its feet" he shouted at the top off his lungs, hoping that she was able to hear him.

Angelo growled softly seeing the barrier go down and he tried to make a run for it " I don't have time for this shit!" Angelo growled stabbing his spear to the ground before saying "bakudo number 21! no ni ju ichi!" before smacking his hands to the ground creating the smoke cloud and he grabbed his spear before running in the cover of the smoke and he ran after his target as he grabbed him roughly with one arm thankfully he wasn't very heavy as he ran towards the gates getting even closer then before glad that smoke screen would at least buy him some time

Kenta nodded as she said she could still fight, that was good, she had gotten stronger. He gave a small smile that disappeared quickly, he noticed the eyepatch but would ask about it later. He began fighting beside Rio, his fighting style seemingly more swift and quick less than how wildly he used to fight. The thought of Rio's eyepatch came back to mind, was it a new style she was trying out? Hm, it could work, she was pretty either way it went. Was it to due with her abilities? Well, that would mean a spar for them sometimes soon......But was it because someone had hurt her? That thought made him unintentionally thrust his staff too hard which sent an arrancar flying directly into another one stacking up until there were six that were smashed into each other and laying on the ground. He overdid it but seemed to pay no mind to it as he continued.

She watched as he slammed his hands into the ground, creating a large cloud of smoke before seeing him disappear in it. "Wait!!! I was just starting to get serious so you can't leave yet!!!" She yelled, rushing into the cloud of smoke after him foolishly. Luckily, she had her men hot on their trail but time was running short. If they were too close to the restricted place already and upon entering would end in a massacre. The woman probably gave the Gotei 13 too much credit or was just trying her best not to lose anyone else. "Alright men, pull back this instant, there are immediate matters we must attend to." She noted with a sense of disappointment in her from not achieving the given objective. All the warriors pulled back once the order had reached their ears without a second thought.

"Hehe, home sweet home. I can't believe I'm finally going to reach it after long time. The Seireitei at long last here I com-hey!!!" Myzurik said as the Shinigami began dragging him to Seireitei by his hair. "Let go will ya!!!? It's not that easy getting this hair into fine conditi-oops I mean that hair wasn't made for pulling..." The blue haired man's voice stopped for once before continuing a few minutes later. "So where are you taking me since we're basically here now? I would love to have my innocence cleared of false charges as soon as possible."

and I really want to kick your ass after all the trouble I went through" Angelo growled trying his best not to. then he went to grabbing his arm a little tightly as he took him to squad eight's barracks, he knocked on the door loudly "captain! I got your target!" I called out not wanting to barge in again and deal with anymore fighting, he use a lot of his spiritual energy against that group. He only wish he knew who they were and especially who that woman was with the remote, He released his shikai form and sheathed his sword as he waited in front of the squad eight's barracks doors for a response and be done with it.

Rinkei & ????

The gates opened right after Angelo knocked, with the Captain looking at him lazy like. "You found him? Well good job and I see that you know how to knock on the door. Also, you need to be with your squad members in the human world this instant. You'll be made aware of the situation once you reach it I'd assume. I'll handle this matter from this point so get to it." Rinkei said in an urgent but calm voice as he placed his Hand on the captives arm before bringing him inside the Barracks for the time being. "Your very existence will be purged from this realm if I even feel but the slighest chance of you attempting to run. So now since that's out of the way, mind telling me who you truly are?"

Angelo sighed loudly trying to take a moment to collect himself and relax even if it was only a little. Then Angelo got back into gear and ran for the zeinkimon and Angelo charged through to get to the battlefield he looked around wondering what was going on here seeing some new type of hallow start attacking the shinigami. immediately Angelo was charged by the new arrancars and they looked much different from what he was expecting an arrancar to look like. thankfully they were weak so he simply stabbed his sheath "suffering strengthen my resolve" he said as his spear reappeared and he started slashing and stabbing the arrancar wondering how to stop all of this

Rinkei & Myzurik

"Oh you know who I am dear. You might not know it yet but I do." Myzurik's face formed a dark grin as Rinkei stopped and turned to the man. "So that's how I know you..well that was only a one time thing so stop it. I've put that long behind me so you should too. I know you probably came all this way to rekindle what we had but it's no more. I've been searching and I finally found someone so it's best if you leave before she sees you." The Captain said nonchalantly, turning away so he wouldn't see the tears raining down from the blue haired man's face.

"What about about my crimes?"
"Seeing as the only crime committed was masquerading as a wanted man, this punishment is sufficent."
"And that is?"
"Hmmm....I hope you manage to figure that out for yourself one day...Kareta."
"Ummm...exuse me for the mental intrusion but so uhhh I have no clue on what you were talking about."
"Forget about it...it's none of your concern." Rinkei said, bringing the man to Squad Eight's temporary prison until the human world commotion had been resolved. That's enough crazy shit for one day.

Expllo said
"I never said I was stronger, I just know you don't like blood, so I won't draw it," Kenta said calmly as he kept one end of his staff placed firmly into the ground. He was impressed that she was able to smack his Spiritual Energy away, which put a little smirk on his face. She spoke about how it's been a while since she fought a staff user, well she was going to fight the best one. As she shunpo'ed in front of him, she spinned mid-air sending a kick towards his head, Kenta simply stuck his staff out inbetween her ankles and twirled it. Unless she was fast enough, the staff would catch her ankles and spin her around stopping the attack and possibly sending her to the ground.

Expllo said
Hearing the sirens and orders of going to the human world Kenta stepped back before Lucy could react, "My apologizes but we must end our battle, we can continue later but I'm needed. Thanks, again," Kenta said with a bow to Lucy before he straightened himself and ran off which soon turned into shunpo, he had gotten much faster throughout the year and hadn't even broken a sweat....A result of his stamina training. Once in the human world he watched the battle for a bit, looking up and seeing Hikari shoot an arc of reiatsu downwards, he figured that was an ability he learned when he got the true form of his Zanpakuto. Kenta shot upwards beside Hikari, his Zanpakuto already in Shikai, he began spinning his staff sending four red Kido balls at some of the Arrancar which hit about three per ball. The balls continued shooting downwards through, pushing into the ground almost as if melting it, then finally stopped. He showed no signs of pain or tiredness, like he would before, it was also another result of his training. He worked more on his physical abilities so he could use his Zanpakuto abilities unlike before where he wanted Zanpakuto ability after Zanpakuto ability, he had matured from that. He continued looking at the battle with Hikari by his side.

Lucy
Lucy was about to bring her leg back and send another strike, before hearing the sirens. She stopped, placing her foot on the ground and nodded towards Kenta "I understand, you got your job and I got mine" She sheathed her blade "And you better keep up your end of the deal. See you next time" She said, winking and sticking out her tongue as she shunpoed away.

Hozumi
Hozumi stood silent for the most part, shy and hiding behind Fumio. He wasn't used to being around large crowds of people and felt off when around them for some reason. He listened to the scene, not really following due to the all of the stuff and alarms going on. Then, something struck a nerve in Hozumi. He became agitated due to the girl calling him an it "I'm not an it, you hag!" He yelled at her, angry and pointing at her. It wasn't long before he realized what he did and hid behind Fumio again. Once again, he had lost track of the conversation and was day dreaming when Fumio suddenly grabbed his hand and shunpoed off, ending up in Minari's room. "Huh?" Before he could even ask Fumio what was going on, Fumio had already left. Hozumi frowned "I thought we were gonna have an adventure" He said to himself, looking down. He turned to Minari, his other mother. He ran to her and hugged her, feeling comforted in her arms. He slowly shook his head, his face buried in her sleeve "No I haven't forgotten you mom" He said, obviously bothered by something. He moved his head away from her sleeve and looked at MInari in her eyes, his own filled with a fiery determination "I wanna go to where mommy and Fumio is at!"

Shoske
Shoske was having a peaceful nap, his headband covering his eyes and the sun. The breeze was gentle and his surroundings were serene. Everything was perfect, until a loud alarm went off, filling the entire Seireitei with noise. Shoske's eyebrow twitched, slightly annoyed after being disturbed from his nap. He was planning onto going back to sleep, until he heard about a large scale attack in the human world. Shoske raised his headband, tying it so it could stay on his forehead. He stood up, his grin wide and body ready to fight "About time something happens, I've been wanting to test out my new skills" He said, before quickly shunpoing off.

Shoske had finally made it to the Human World, and fashionably late on accident. He stood high up in the air, looking down at the scene. There was chaos everywhere, shinigamis fighting strange looking arrancars. They were weak but their strength lied in their numbers "Just like ants" Shoske said, unsheathing his left zanpakuto with his right hand "But where is the one pulling the strings" Shoske said to himself, wondering where the ring leaders were. Shoske shrugged "Maybe if I kill enough, I'll get there attention. Here it goes" Shoske said, flying downwards towards a giant horde of the arrancars. He grinned, tightly gripping his zanpakuto's hilt with both hands. Golden reiatsu began to become infused with the blade as he approached the hoard. "RYODAN!!!" He yelled, swinging downwards as a wave of his reiatsu was released from the edge of his blade. He swung at the arrancars, killing all of them in the process and creating a giant crater. As the smoke faded, Shoske could be seen holding one of the arrancars "Where the hell is your leader" He said, as footsteps could be heard walking towards Shoske from behind. He turned, with a curious expression. His expression then changed, a wide grin forming as he dropped the body.

Her face grew ever more with happiness after being hugged by her precious little Hozumi. She was glad that he remembered her but he didn't look as happy as she expected him to be. "Something the matter Hozu-pooh?" Minari asked curiously, trying to figure out what was troubling him. Hozu lifted his head so it was face hers, revealing the fire burning in his eyes before speaking. "I wanna go where mommy and Fumio is at!!!" She couldn't help but show a surprised look on her face after hearing those words. "Hmmm....it's a bit dangerous where they are at. You're too young to go where they are at today but how about we visit uncle Rinkei for some training instead? That way you can show mommy how strong you've become once she gets back."

Miyume

"It seems I'm late, well time to make up for lost time." Miyume said calmly after just making it to the human world. She looked around at the many Shinigami fighting the enemy, attempting to assess the situation. "These things aren't the ones that destroyed these cities. So what are they hoping to gain from this? Attempting to test out their new toys maybe? Whatever the case, these toys need to be removed so we can restore stability to this place." Miyume concluded before shunpoing into the fray. Unlike other Shinigami, she placed her hand on the hilt of her Zanpakuto rather than unsheathing it. The 3rd seat wanted the Arrancars to be dead before even knowing it. Only those that managed to put up a fight, deserved a proper death. A group consisting of more than twelve of the Swarm breed of Hollows planned on exchanging blades with her.

First to go was the weakest and apparently the most confident of the group. Charging in head first while the others attempted to circle around her. Going in for a horizontal slash which she easily reacted to. Miyume flash stepped right behind it before unleashing a quick slash aimed at it's back. It didn't seem to phase the Hollow at all nor even cut through Its skin. Despite that, the 3rd seat steered her attention away from the Hollow onto the remaining. Seconds later, the Swarm member that was slashed, suddenly split into two. "I see....I'm rusty but that's good that there are so many of you. I probably would be bored already otherwise."

(Deleted)

Angelo kept fighting for what seemed like a battle with no end, every time he brought down one of those things two more took its place. he had to fight smart here and figure out where they were coming from or he had to start taking more out at once. Except his zanpacto was a defense type and he couldn't pull off the destruction that an offensive type would. Angelo was an assassin, he was meant to kill in silence not in a full scale war like this. Angelo fought through the chaos of the swarm so he would find a familiar or at least another shikigami that he could defend while they attacked.

Koyo was glad at the team work that the three of them pulled off with her and Giovanni blasting the two Menos into each other right before Gustavo gave the final topping on the ambush cake by using his kido to push the one she hit even harder against the Menos.

Slamming against its 'brother' the Menos was starting to lose its footing while the other stumbled towards Ko, though she too this chance to fall down onto the one below her, causing it to finally start falling all the way! Grabbing onto her swords hilt she started to run up towards the falling Menos' face while smaller hollow were leaping up from the forest floor onto its body to try and stop her. One of them was like a entire mouth twice the size of her and tried to chomp its jaws around her. However, swaying to the side like a drunk she avoided the attack, enabling her to cut the thing in half with a single blow.

Hollow after hollow she made her way up until the point the huge Menos finally landed, the earth shaking boom almost causing her to lose her footing, and not to mention enabling a hollow to catch her with its mouth coming down around her shoulder to bite it off! However its jaws were stopped inches from digging into her flesh as the sheathed sword kept its jaws from closing on her. Kicking off she turned in its mouth, gaining a footing on the side of its head before forcing it into the Menos body, crushing its mask like pottery. Though the large hollow had tim to start getting up Ko made it to its face using flash step, cutting its mask enough to hurt it, but not enough to kill the thing.

Despite how many of these Arrancars that came at him, Yu was able to take them down just as quickly as they came. These guys were not even close to the level of that one orange haired Arrancar. Well their was one way to clear out the number of these lesser Arrancars. "Bear your fangs hounds of carnage, tear them asunder, Hakai no Okami." Yu spoke with both his swords changing their shape, yet Yu didn't stick them in the ground this time he held them at his side while more than twenty four wolves formed behind him with one of the wolves being much bigger than the rest. Yu pointed his right sword at the Arrancars and all the wolves howled in resonance as they lunged out with several explosions going off everywhere on the field, until all twenty five of the wolves had exploded. After that he noticed a lot more of the Arrancars surrounding him, in which Yu chuckled and vanished in a instant, yet within that instant Yu had already killed all the Arrancars before they could even know it. After that one day,Yu spent a lot of his time to make his speed one of the best within soul society. While it may not have been number one, he would consider himself to be in the top ten maybe even top five with how his speed is now.

With most of the small hollow ganging up on Gio he didnt have to worry about aiming, especially as they got closer. so long as it wasnt in the direction of his teammates any kido he fired off would hit something trying to kill him. While he hadnt expected this many Hollows to be present he still wasnt concerned. "ignite the rivers amber rays, declare triumph atop the wind. Shine low, strike slow, declare no more, Hado 69" he stomped on the ground cause a crater and a lot of stones to rise in the air "Terra cannon" The stone was charged with his spiritual pressure that he was releasing and exploded outward like shrapnel tearing through most of the hollows in his vicinity. His kido research was beging to pay off. he had be able to create several of his own kido spells with in the year in hopes of being named the Grand Kido Chief. While the title was still up for grabs after the passing of Captain Viole his efforts were truly paying off today.

now that he had a bit of breathing room for a moment he turned his attention back to the Menos'. He could sense Ko was near one so he targeted the other one. "flow your course through the lightning river, cross bone guide post guide your hand. shimer on the setting light. Hado 40. Mizuorochi. " while originially a spell designed to create one large snake of a golden water like structure Gio had modified it to create 8 snakes That he launched into the air. By focusing on his target, the other menos, he guided the snakes right into the Menos. Each hit with the force of a solid blow, knocking it back into the ground and causing it to wail in pain. However the effort it took Gio to home in on the menos left him open to the other hollows. One Grabbed him with a pair of hands that were as big as him trying to hold him long enough for another to bit his head off. With his hands Pressed against his side he aimed a finger downward "hado 1...Sho" the force of the very basik kido spell was enough to propell himself into the air so that the hollow bit the other hollows arm, freeing Giovanni, who quickly killed both of them.

Angelo kept fighting as the swarm started to surrounded him but he used his health buff as he got slashed in the back but it didn't affect me to much as I kept slashing and destroying them then he called "bakudo number 21!" He said smashing the grind into a giant smoke screen and he used his suited to slash and d kill 20 arrancars from that trick alone as he moved towards any other shinigami he could hear fighting knowing he was meant for defense so he needed someone to pick up his slack in the killing department
