The New King of Hueco Mundo

"Yes, yes, I wasn't planning on competing with you for this spot, it's just that they specifically called for it."

A middle-aged man with black hair slowly walked to Baraggan's side.

A little blonde girl was hanging from his right arm.

Both the middle-aged man and the little girl wore illusory masks, though they didn't cover a large portion of their faces.

One looked like an eye patch, and the other was half a helmet; they simply looked like normal humans wearing Visored.

Moreover, they did not have the pale, bony coverings that the Void possessed, and their skin color was very close to that of normal humans.

"That's truly a powerful force."

Aizen couldn't help but sigh.

In his eyes, the power possessed by this man far surpassed that of the skeleton beside him who called himself the King of Hueco Mundo.

Moreover, the other party's posture perfectly matched the appearance he had imagined Hollows would display after achieving a breakthrough and obtaining the power of the Soul Reaper.

The shattered mask and the almost human-like posture.

Let's just call him Arrancar.

However, the middle-aged man opposite him did not possess the power of the Soul Reaper; he was entirely a Hollow.

His strength is now on par with his current level.

Aizen smiled and looked over.

"Oh, right, now it's time for self-introductions, isn't it?"

The middle-aged man pointed to himself with his left hand.

"My name is Koyatai Starrk." Then he pointed to the girl hanging on his right, "Her name is Lilynette."

"What does the Soul Reaper want in Hueco Mundo?"

"Damn Starrk, how many times have I told you, I am the King of Hueco Mundo!" Baraggan roared again.

However, neither Starrk standing beside him nor Aizen in front of him paid him any attention.

Aizen looked at Starrk, smiled, and held his Zanpakuto upside down, saying:

"Shatter!"

"Kyōka Suigetsu."

Chapter 126 The New King of Hueco Mundo

"Hey, Starrk, they've already drawn their swords and attacked, what are you standing there for!"

Lilynette stretched out her right hand and kept slapping Starrk's shoulder while shouting.

Starrk sighed and poked her cheek with his finger, saying:

"You know, if I release Reiatsu, I'll crush all these guys down there to death."

He glanced at the thousands of Void beings below, but made no move to attack.

Lilynette yelled in annoyance, "They're all brainless anyway, as numerous as stray dogs on the street. What's the difference between being killed by Soul Reaper and being run over?"

Starrk didn't respond, continuing to poke Lilynette's face with his finger.

Koyat Starrk, perhaps also known as Lilynette, was unaware of who the original subject truly was.

Because of his overwhelming innate power, even weak Hollows would be crushed to death by the Reiatsu he naturally exudes if they got close.

They can't even get close to other virtual entities.

So he has been wandering alone in the endless Hueco Mundo.

Until recently, he suddenly sensed a powerful force and, out of curiosity, approached it.

He thought that if someone possessed that kind of power, they certainly wouldn't be crushed to death by their own Reiatsu.

What he witnessed that day was the battle between Tokoyo Misao and Baraggan.

This Hueco Mundo King Starrk had seen before; the other party could use strange, decaying powers, but like Stark, he couldn't get close to him.

Starrk wanted to talk to him, but Baraggan said something like, "I will become the King of Hueco Mundo!" and then left.

When they met again, they saw Baraggan being beaten and pinned down.

"So it's possible to suppress one's own power like this?"

He learned how to understand and use Reishi from the battles of the Tokoyo Misao.

It was at this moment that he subconsciously decided to split his power in two.

At that moment, Baraggan was defeated by the man and flew towards them.

Within a mere hundred meters, Baraggan's body was already showing signs of disintegration.

Starrk immediately initiated the plan, splitting his soul in two and reducing his own power, transforming it into Koyat Starrk and Lilynette.

Fortunately, he split off quickly enough; otherwise, if Baraggan, still severely injured, had continued to approach, he would have been crushed and killed.

The split forces, while not enough to crush Baraggan, still couldn't withstand the combined might of the enemy's gathered subordinates.

Therefore, Starrk kept a low profile, avoiding battle, lest all the Hollows below die before even engaging the enemy.

Actually, Aizen some misunderstandings about Starrk's current state.

Aizen believed that the Starrk had completed their Arrancar transformation, which was a sign of their evolution.

However, if someone with the Eternal Eyes Tokoyo Misao were to observe from the side, they would find that the opponent was merely weakening themselves.

It's just a self-castration done out of a dislike of loneliness, and has absolutely nothing to do with evolutionary breakthroughs.

Starrk turned his head and said, "I'll leave this to you, Barrett... Gun?"

"Damn Grim Soul Reaper, you think you can rule Hueco Mundo?!" Baraggan waved his hand, and a huge purple axe appeared in his skeletal hand.

He the Roar and swung his sword at Starrk.

"Go to hell!"

"Starrk, I told you this guy was an idiot! Look at him, he can even confuse the enemy!"

Lilynette yelled, "What are you waiting for? Fight back!"

Starrk frowned and instantly appeared a hundred meters away.

"What are you doing? You could kill that kind of trash in a few hits!" Lilynette shouted angrily.

Starrk, seeing Baraggan charging at him again, said, "Hey, what are you planning to do?"

A putrid aura enveloped the giant axe, which surged forth like waves as Baraggan cleaved through it.

As soon as this wave took shape, it corroded a large area of emptiness, turning it to ashes.

He had only recently acquired a subordinate, and he had already killed hundreds of them.

Baraggan roared, arms outstretched. "What for? To grind you, Soul Reaper, to dust, of course!"

Starrk vanished again, reappearing in the night sky.

"Starrk, if you're not going to fight, put me down and I'll fight!" Lilynette yelled angrily.

She had never been attacked so arrogantly in her entire life!

"Idiot, Baraggan is calling out 'Soul Reaper'." Starrk looked down and saw Baraggan chasing after him again, scratching his head helplessly.

"So what... oh?" Lilynette had figured it out by now. Although Baraggan had always been arrogant and boastful, his words far exceeding his abilities, he wasn't stupid.

How could they possibly mistake them for the Soul Reaper? Something must be wrong.

Starrk did not loosen his grip on Lilynette's left arm.

After a moment's thought, he extended two fingers, pointing them from the sky to Baraggan charging towards him and Aizen, who had been standing below smiling.

The next moment, two blue beams of Reishi suddenly shot out from the fingertips.

"This level of attack dares to challenge my decaying power!" Baraggan's aura expanded, directly Cero.

Starrk didn't care; his attack on Baraggan was merely to slow down his opponent's speed.

He glanced at the target of the other Cero attack, his brow furrowing even more.

Because the Soul Reaper named Aizen had half his body blasted off by Cero, and now he lay on the desert, his body gradually dissipating into Reishi.

"Hahaha, the so-called Soul Reaper is nothing special!" Lilynette shouted excitedly, waving her fist. "I thought he was some kind of genius!"

"No, the guy I saw last time was also Soul Reaper. This person shouldn't be this weak."

"Aren't there strong and weak Soul Reaper too?"

Even Starrk and Lilynette themselves don't know who the original main character was.

But the memories and loneliness before the split were deeply imprinted in both of their minds.

The power of Tokoyo Misao is very strong, and this Soul Reaper named Aizen should also be quite powerful; it's impossible for him to be killed by such a simple Cero.

"Hey, what should we do with that guy?" Lilynette pointed at Baraggan, who was still charging towards them.

"This is troublesome." Starrk opened his hand, and Reishi gathered in his palm, but this time it was different from the previous Cero.

The Reishi particles were pure blue just now, but this time, at the center of the nascent Cero, they were tinged with red and black.

"Gran Rey Cero."

Boom!

Menos Grande, tens of meters in diameter, hurtled towards Baraggan like a comet, instantly striking his dark purple, decaying aura and forcing him back.

Starrk glanced at the remaining Hollows on the ground and sighed again.

He whispered, "Lilynette, don't let them die."

"Hmph." Lilynette clapped her hands, making a crisp sound.

The next moment, Gran Rey Cero, who had been holding off Baraggan and slamming him to the ground, suddenly changed direction and rushed off into the distance.

That direction was precisely where Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tōsen were located.

"Oh my, Cero can actually turn corners? That's the first time I've ever seen that." Gin Ichimaru said, taking two steps back to Kaname Tōsen in front of him.

"And there's this guy who exudes an evil aura; he's terrifying."

"Hmph." Kaname Tōsen, fearless, drew his Zanpakuto, gathered Reishi into the blade, and swung it down fiercely.

A black blade of light shot out, transforming into a massive Reishi light blade that slashed at the back of the Baraggan.

With a hissing sound, the blade's edge was dissipated upon contact with the decaying aura, unable even to slow the opponent's backward flight.

"Damn it." Kaname Tōsen's face was extremely ugly.

Although he currently lacks Shikai and Bankai, he did use his full power in his current state, but to no avail.

"Should we just Bankai?" Gin Ichimaru stepped back again, his narrowed eyes fixed on Kaname Tōsen's back.

"Then..."

Kaname Tōsen gritted his teeth and prepared to use Bankai.

"Damn Soul Reaper!" Baraggan suddenly roared.

His aura suddenly erupted, forcefully resisting Gran Rey Cero power and stopping.

"Decay is the most invincible force of time!"

He continued to roar as he swung his giant axe, hacking away at the decaying wood.

These forces continued to gather, resisting Gran Rey Cero power. It wasn't until he had unleashed dozens of strikes and was even somewhat out of breath that they were finally dissipated.

Baraggan roared to the sky, "Hahaha, that's all there is to it!"

His arrogant demeanor made it seem as if he had truly won.

Not to mention Kaname Tōsen and Gin Ichimaru, even Starrk and the other two found it hard to watch.

However, from Baraggan's perspective, he had just been locked in a power struggle with Aizen and had successfully killed him, which is why he was so happy.

"What a disgrace." Lilynette shook her head and sighed. She thought she had found a companion, but it turned out to be a fool.

"Don't blame him. Didn't you notice? Baraggan thought he was fighting Soul Reaper, so he must have been hit."
