Jugram Haschwalth brought him here not only to have him imitate Zero to restrain Zero, but also to have him read out intelligence after acquiring Zero's memories.
With Jugram Haschwalth's order, nearly a hundred Reiatsu appeared in Hueco Mundo, more than twenty of which were quite powerful, while the rest were rather ordinary... This was the arrival of the Sternritter, leading a portion of their Holy Soldier, in Hueco Mundo.
"Hmph, are you here to avenge that piece of trash from yesterday?"
Three members of the Sternritter stood before Baraggan, all dressed in pristine white Western-style uniforms, exuding an air of arrogance.
"Revenge? Don't get me wrong, we're just here to kill you."
A two-tongued, disheveled man who looked like an idiot responded to Baraggan. This man was named Nianzol Huasso and possessed the Schrift W— the Wind.
Of the remaining two, one was a slightly aged Quincy named Robert Accutrone Agutron, who possessed the Schrift N and Nitrogen Acceleration.
Another person, with dark skin and a beast-like appearance, was named Jerome Kizbart. He possessed the Schrift R, symbolizing the ability of 'The Roar'.
The current Sternritter have gradually transformed into the same group that attacked the Seireitei in the original timeline, except that some of them haven't yet reached their peak Reiryoku.
"Kill me? How utterly laughable! Go! Crush these madmen!"
Baraggan his hand, and his men, gathered behind him, rushed forward, each employing their own methods to attack the three madmen...
At the same time, two Quincy appeared before Szayelaporro. Although their Reiatsu was not strong, Szayelaporro already knew that they possessed a special technique called Quincy Vollständig, which could greatly enhance their combat power.
He didn't rush into battle, but instead bought some time through conversation, asking Lojia to take care of the Laboratory for him.
Szayelaporro has decided that the Laboratory must be built into a fortified fortress to ensure the integrity of the materials data...
A strange fellow appeared before Grimmjow, spouting nonsense and expressing 'The Question' with everything Grimmjow did.
Having his sore spot touched Grimmjow didn't even consider what he had done wrong; he immediately attacked, using the Slacking-Off Missile to ambush his opponent.
So-called 'The Question' has little effect on Grimmjow, who glorifies violence; its only effect might be to enrage him...
"All personnel, prepare to fight the invaders! Full force permitted!"
Zero's voice came out of nowhere, and he used the Tenteikūra to address all the Menos Grande and Half-Arrancar within Las Noches.
Upon hearing this, the Adjuchas were overjoyed. They summoned a large number of Giant Hollows and brought up the Gillian from beneath Las Noches as well.
In an instant, chaotic Reiatsu erupted throughout Las Noches, and battles broke out everywhere.
The Central Royal Palace suddenly shattered, and two streams of Reiatsu shot straight to the Sky Cover. Zero had already broken the seal and was releasing his Reiatsu with all his might, as was Loyd Lloyd, the imitator opposite him.
However, in Zero's opinion, the Century Egg's imitation of breaking the seal was somewhat forced... Zero's main body had already released Fifteen Trucks of Reiatsu, but this guy could only release Twelve Trucks.
In other words, there is a limit to this ability to imitate; those who are too good at imitating will reveal flaws.
Zero and the Imitator clashed several times, and the scattered Sword Aura further damaged the already shattered Royal Palace.
Starrk also released the small seal that Zero had designed for him, and continuously bombarded Jugram Haschwalth with Cero that condensed at extremely high speeds. When Cero missed its target, it slammed into the ground, creating a large wave of sand.
Jugram Haschwalth kept dodging, and just as he was about to close in with his Hirenkyaku, Starrk would use his Sonído to create distance, which annoyed Jugram Haschwalth. He was the only Quincy who couldn't conjure Reishi Arrows.
Feeling unable to quickly defeat Starrk, Jugram Haschwalth kept dodging and focused some of his attention on Loyd Lloyd... Even Starrk could tell that Jugram Haschwalth's attention wasn't on him.
It wasn't that Jugram Haschwalth looked down on the Starrk, but rather that he possessed a strange Quincy Medallion, which he would instantly seize if Nangong Ling was forced to use his Bankai...
There was no way around it; Jugram Haschwalth knew that Zero had fought with Yama-jii during his defection and had escaped unscathed.
Fewer than five Quincy knew about this, Jugram Haschwalth intentionally hid the Reishi Video to prevent the new Sternritter from being swayed by those two...
The fierce battle between Zero and Loyd Lloyd continues, but it is clear that Loyd Lloyd is being completely overwhelmed.
Pfft!
Dark red blood dripped from the sky. Zero's Blood Drink had already slashed through Loyd Lloyd's chest. Even if the wound wasn't fatal, it would still slightly disrupt his Reiatsu.
"It's just imitation after all. I'll take care of you first, then deal with all the others who come over."
Zero revealed a disdainful expression, then turned his head slightly to look at the aura of death rising in the distance, which was Baraggan going all out.
Not only on his side, Szayelaporro's Reiatsu was also surging, and it seemed that he had also Resurrección.
The most impressive one was Picaro's side. A giant pillar of Reishi light suddenly rose around him, forcing the Quincy was fighting him to use his Vollständig.
"Can this level of injury kill you, Nangong Ling?"
"Don't call me by my name, you ugly three-eyed Century Egg."
Loyd Lloyd, who appeared as Zero, addressed Zero by his given name, which made Zero feel very uncomfortable... Feeling annoyed by the insult, Loyd Lloyd suddenly unleashed a crescent-shaped Blood-Coagulating Slash.
Zero casually swung his sword, shattering the fake Blood-Coagulating Slash. His distinctive Cross Mask reappeared on his face, and his Reiatsu surged once more.
"That's... the power of the Hollow? What's going on? Why don't I have this ability even though I imitated him?"
Before Loyd Lloyd could understand, a sound that shook the space Sonído, and Zero had already raised his sword and slashed down behind him.
Loyd Lloyd could only turn around quickly and raise his sword to block, but the slash was so powerful that it slammed him from mid-air into the ruins of the Royal Palace.
Zero fed blood to the blade with his left hand, as if seeing through the smoke and dust, and a 'Blood-Coagulating Piercer' rushed out, hitting Loyd Lloyd who had just gotten up.
"Hehe... Damn it!"
Loyd Lloyd coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground. After uttering a curse, all that remained was his rapidly weakening Reiatsu; his heart had been pierced and exploded.
'What was that just now? A hollow mask? After it appeared, his Reiatsu increased significantly. Is that why Loyd Lloyd couldn't completely imitate him?'
Despite being mentally prepared, Jugram Haschwalth still felt a sense of fear upon witnessing all of this; no wonder he was a person who openly and honestly defected from Soul Society.
Jugram Haschwalth himself wasn't confident he could easily defeat Loyd Lloyd, who possessed such underhanded abilities, while Nangong Ling only took a few minutes.
It's easy to defeat the enemy, but difficult to defeat yourself.
Zero's easy victory was not only due to the difference in power, but also because he possessed the Reiatsu of both Soul Reaper and a Hollow within him.
Loyd Lloyd's ability with the Schrift can only read and imitate one type of Reiatsu, not two at the same time... This also means that he cannot completely imitate Zero.
The meaning of "cannot be completely imitated" is: even if you imitate it, you cannot unleash the full power of the original.
"Since Lord Nangong has already used a considerable amount of his strength, it means he doesn't want to wait any longer. Let's see who prevails!"
Starrk pulled Jugram Haschwalth's thoughts back to the front lines, summoning Lilynette and intending to use her Resurrección to kill Jugram Haschwalth in one fell swoop.
"Loyd Lloyd lost so quickly."
In another location, Bazz-B was greatly surprised to sense Loyd Lloyd's Reiatsu rapidly waning.
They came here with a plan: to use Loyd Lloyd's mimicry ability to force Nangong Ling to use his Bankai, and then have Jugram Haschwalth Bankai it into Medallionization. This way, they might be able to completely eliminate the threat posed by Hueco Mundo.
However, it seems to have failed.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
"How about that? With his meager skills, he dares to challenge Nangong? He's courting death. You'll all die in Hueco Mundo too."
Dordoni gasped for breath, his voice still radiating fervor despite being battered and bruised by Bazz-B; their king had won with ease.
"Hmph, I'll take care of you first, then I'll burn that annoying guy to ashes."
Bazz-B immediately displeased and activated the power of the Schrift, unleashing a High-Temperature Wall of Flames that covered Dordoni.
'We can't hold them off anymore.'
In his terror, Dordoni could only unleash Tornado to create a wall of wind to blow away the Heat flames.
Just as he was about to be overwhelmed, a figure suddenly stood in front of him, his right hand swung like a knife towards the desert surface, causing a sand wave hundreds of meters high to engulf the wall of fire.
"U... Ulquiorra!"
After Dordoni saw the slender figure clearly, he exclaimed in surprise, "Wasn't this person going to find Vasto Lorde? He's actually back!"
Dordoni didn't ask about the reason; he was relieved after being rescued.
"You can't even handle this kind of trash? Lord Nangong is afraid he'll be disappointed in you."
Ulquiorra remained expressionless as he uttered those words. Dordoni, who had been rescued, felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and was immediately filled with guilt, losing all trace of the joy of being saved.
"So eager to boast? Don't worry, you'll soon be crawling on the ground like him."
Bazz-B got into position, activating the Reishi Gathering at full power until the concentration was high enough to ignite the desert.
Just as he was about to continue his attack, he heard Jugram Haschwalth's voice. "Objective accomplished, all personnel retreat!"
"Tch, not going all the way? A half-hearted effort, goodbye."
Just as a circle of dark figures suddenly appeared around Bazz-B, Ulquiorra Sonído around and tried to stab him with a chop to the neck, but the figure had already vanished in an instant.
"Strange movement pattern..."
Ulquiorra murmured something, then memorized the information its eyes had seen.
Jugram Haschwalth ordered a retreat before the Starrk were even freed, mainly because the objective had already been achieved.
For a moment, the chaotic Reiatsu of Las Noches suddenly returned to calm, leaving only the Menos Grande and Giant Hollows summoned to the ground to fight the Holy Soldier, howling and wailing.
The Quincy even took away the corpses of the Holy Soldier. If it weren't for the fact that most of the buildings were damaged, it would have been as if nothing had happened Las Noches.
"They're retreating already? Were they here to test my strength? No, they must have achieved some objective."
Zero was confused; he couldn't hear Jugram Haschwalth giving the order.
Sure enough, not long after, Szayelaporro appeared before Zero with a grim expression, immediately kneeling to beg for forgiveness. In his carelessness, Cang Du had been murdered...
It was the other Sternritter. This was also a small part of Jugram Haschwalth's plan to eliminate danger, ensuring that Cang Du's remains were completely destroyed, making it difficult for Hueco Mundo to analyze the method to reach the Wandenreich by studying him.
