Nero was mildly irritated when Hana arrived but decided to ignore her in favor of the fight. With his current limitations he was quite enjoying it... though it was still boring. Most of these Hollows were hardly worth the effort to fight. Slicing through a fifth one killing it he heard Hana release her Zanpakto, Mizumi no Suitora... water based? He couldn't see her from where he was but it was likely she was using water to fight.

Then he heard her terrified scream. He vanished in a burst of Sonido, appearing in time to stop her being eaten by slicing the arm holding her off. He looked down at her to make sure Hana was okay before turning to the offending Hollow with a glare.

"You hurt my friend."He said as a feral grin grew on his face "Now your gonna hurt before I send your souls to the next life."

He vanished again and a spurt of blood erupted from its back before another erupted from his side. Then its other arm was cut off before a gash appeared in its right leg sending the Hollow to its knees. Another two gashes appeared across its chest while a second one appeared at its side. The Hollow letting out pained roars as all this happened, not able to fully comprehend how this was happening to it. IT was strong how was this... human hurting it so easily!? Nero finally reappeared in front of the Hollow with a mad grin on his face and his left arm reared back as he delivered a powerful punch to the Hollows mask, shattering it and sending the Hollow flying twenty feet back. Nero held his blade at the side of his waist and took a step back before lunging forward with a swing.

"ZANTETSUKEN!" He shouted as he sent a blade of energy at the Hollow, slicing its head in half and killing it.

Sighing he turned to Hana and offered her his hand.

"Are you okay... Hana-chan?" He asked in concern.
