"Hey, hey, hey, with that size, you must be kidding!"
Grimmjow screamed repeatedly. He had killed many big guys, and he would kill any big guy who looked down on him, but he had never seen such a big, dumb guy before.
"Is this... is this really the power Adjuchas could possess? Is it his ability?"
Dordoni racked his brains but couldn't figure out what this ability was. Most Adjuchas have their own abilities and characteristics, just like he has the ability to release storms, Grimmjow can use the Slacking-Off Missile and has super speed.
Other Adjuchas possess a variety of abilities, including using their bodies as weapons, extending or enlarging their forms, having impressive escape skills, and others that contribute to their unique combat prowess.
But this was the first time they had ever seen someone get stronger the more they fought.
"This is the first time anyone has made me this angry. Well done! It is precisely because of anger that my power is so immense; my power comes from my own anger."
"When I first became Adjuchas, I was very weak, and my size was not what you initially saw. I was also bitten on the mask by a Hollow of the same level. Enraged by my inability to continue evolving, my power continued to grow."
"I thought my ability was to quickly accumulate Reiatsu, but I later discovered that anger is my true source of power. Come on! Let me be even angrier, and I'll be stronger than anyone else..."
Yammy, muffled voice about his past, how he became so enormous through rage because he had lost the possibility of evolving into Vasto Lorde.
Although it cannot evolve into a true Vasto Lorde, Yammy's abilities are equivalent to 'evolution', or even surpass it.
Yammy, whose strength was already equivalent to Vasto Lorde, has now far surpassed it, and his Reiatsu has reached 10.1, which is slightly stronger than zero.
It's worth mentioning that Zero's Reiatsu has reached a certain critical point, making the fourfold increase from his complete Shikai impossible. Instead, it has stopped at 10 times the standard Captain-level Reiatsu.
As for the extra 0.1 in Yammy, it's simply because his size is large enough to withstand a little more.
Zero hasn't realized it yet, because this is one of the very few times he has fully unleashed his power in all his years in Hueco Mundo...
"Tch, the angrier you get, the stronger you become? Perfect, it's been a long time since I've had a serious battle!"
Zero's face revealed a bloodthirsty smile, and he also emitted a red Reiatsu beam that shot straight into the sky, clashing with Yammy's enormous Reiatsu.
Today is a good day, at least for Abirama.
As one of the few flying Adjuchas under Emperor Baraggan, he was sent by the Great Emperor a few days ago to inspect the territory, to find powerful generals to bring back, or to bring back information about Vasto Lorde.
Abirama has been flying west for several days now. If you were to ask him if Baraggan's territory is that big, he would definitely answer that the entire Hueco Mundo is Baraggan's territory.
However, even the strongest forces have their limitations. Just as the Seireitei cannot completely control the Soul Society, how could Baraggan, a mere Vasto Lorde-class entity, possibly completely control Hueco Mundo?
In those places they consider barren, in those regions where even Adjuchas are rare, there often exist powerful beings they cannot comprehend.
The flying creature Abirama has red feathers and a white mask with several black stripes. Its appearance is like that of a griffin in the Western world, with the head of an eagle and the body of a lion, except that it has four pairs of wings on its back.
Those familiar with the Arrancar arc of Soul Reaper will recognize who this is; it's the bird-man that Izuru Kira defeated...
Abirama flew at an altitude of two thousand meters with her head held high. This distance made her less vulnerable to ground-based ambushes and allowed her to clearly observe the ground.
However, Abirama believed that no one would dare to attack him, after all, he was the King of Hueco Mundo... Boom! A terrifying sense of oppression came, making Abirama feel as if he was suffocating, and his mind went blank as he plummeted vertically.
"Damn it, what's going on? Is this gravity control? Let's go check it out."
The almost tangible Reiatsu made Abirama unable to sense Reiatsu; he only managed to regain his footing after falling from a height of two thousand meters to five hundred meters.
However, this was only the first wave. As Abirama flew in that direction, another equally powerful Reiatsu appeared, causing him to fall from the sky.
Abirama, who had fallen from the sky and swallowed a mouthful of sand, exclaimed in horror, "This is Reiatsu? Impossible, absolutely impossible! There are actually two Reiatsu stronger than Lord Baraggan's!?"
Those two shouts of "impossible" were even more absolute than Cao Cao's, but the facts were already before them. Following the oppressive feeling was a sandstorm brought up by the Reiatsu Gale caused by the collision, wave after wave, making Abirama dare not fly high in the sky anymore.
Braving the fierce Gale and fear, Abirama, with a loyal heart, was determined to scout for Baraggan. He Sonído and spun On the Road, quickly approaching the battlefield.
When he climbed onto a giant rock, his field of vision opened up instantly, and his sharp eagle eyes saw everything that was happening.
A colossal beast was wildly throwing punches, Abirama looked closely and saw a red humanoid figure wielding a sharp blade that was constantly slashing at the beast, causing blood to gush out.
"Using the Quartz Tree next to it as a reference, the behemoth is at least three hundred meters tall... How could there be such a huge Hollow, and its Reiatsu is already far stronger than Vasto Lorde's."
"And who exactly is that guy with the sword? Is he also Vasto Lorde? Their Reiatsu is too strong..."
Abirama was utterly shocked. He dared not approach any further, for the Reiatsu emanating from Zero and Yammy was far too immense; if he got too close, he feared he would be crushed to death.
Grimmjow and Dordoni had also moved far away from there, and Zero and Yammy had fought their way from the canyon to the desert, with waves of sand rising and falling from the battlefield.
Rumble!
Yammy unleashed another Cero, its terrifying destructive power shattering the desert and sending quicksand surging into the Forest of Menos, burying countless Gillian within its sands.
Due to his speed issues, Yammy kept missing Zero, which made him increasingly angry. Moreover, his impatient nature caused him to continuously release Reiatsu, stirring up the atmosphere.
"Haha, how about that? Can't stand in the air anymore? Time to send you to your grave!"
Upon noticing the disorder in the Reishi in the air, and realizing that Zero could no longer stand in the air by condensing Reishi, Yammy overjoyed and continued to release his Reiatsu recklessly.
"So what if you can't stand? You still can't keep up with my speed, Blood-Coagulating Piercer!!"
Zero Shunpo to Yammy, stabbing down with his sword while simultaneously activating his Penetrating Skill. Surprisingly, his usually unstoppable penetrating power failed to pierce Yammy's neck.
"Those stinky flies are so annoying!"
Yammy's enormous tail swept towards the back of his neck. To him, it was just the tip of his tail, but to Zero, that tip was three or four meters in diameter. Being hit by it would probably be quite painful.
Zero Shunpo to Yammy's neck and unleashed two crescent-shaped Blood-Coagulating Slashes, striking Yammy's neck with a large gash.
Yammy slapped at Zero, who landed on the ground with a Shunpo. At that moment, Yammy drew a circle with his tail, turned around, and swept across the sand indiscriminately. Just then, Zero had just performed a series of long-distance Shunpo and was in a pause when he was hit.
Bang!
"I've finally caught you, die..."
After Yammy's tail struck Zero, he saw Zero flying backward. Just as he was about to follow up with an attack, he seemed to sense something as if he had been electrocuted and stopped in place.
Zero also took the opportunity to adjust his posture. Yammy's speed was not good, but his attack power and defense were really terrifying. He only took one hit and then coughed up blood, his body was injured by the shock.
If Yammy were to follow up with a Cero was even more destructive than before, Zero would be severely injured, if not killed, and might even be forced to flee by Yammy.
But now Yammy stopped attacking, turned to look at the little dog named Kukkapuro in the canyon, and his Reiatsu disappeared.
It's incredibly strange that Yammy, whose Pesquisa are practically nonexistent, could sense the disappearance of Kukkapuro's Reiatsu, who isn't even Ragged Hollows.
"Tch, dead? Even without suppressing the burst of Reiatsu, you still managed to crush that piece of trash."
Yammy's mask had burst open over his eyes, revealing a sadness he himself was unaware of.
Kukkapuro is Yammy's only 'friend'. No matter how much Yammy curses at it, it never holds a grudge. The tyrannical Yammy never killed it, and even deliberately lowered its spiritual Reiatsu when it approached, afraid of hurting this silly dog.
Yammy had many subordinates in the past, but they all left because they couldn't stand his tyranny. Some Adjuchas even wanted to kill Yammy after being treated violently.
Yammy's mask was bitten by the traitor at that time, which prevented him from evolving.
Later, the dozen or so Adjuchas that Grimmjow and his men killed arrived later. Yammy treated them as his servants, killing them whenever he wanted, and killing them when they were no longer of use...
"You seem quite concerned about that dog. Is it your companion? It's a strange feeling. It's the first time I've ever seen a Menos Grande befriend a Ragged Hollows that isn't even a proper Hollow."
Zero was indeed seeing Grimmjow, the white leopard who was always by his side, for the first time. Grimmjow used to challenge him almost every few days, until he had never won against him, at which point he stopped and said he would wait until he evolved before challenging him again.
The Menos Grande they hunted were all Adjuchas; they never saw an Adjuchas partnering with Gillian, let alone those mindless and weak Ragged Hollows.
When Adjuchas teams up with others of similar level, he shows some cooperation and camaraderie, at least not attacking his teammates. But expecting him to risk his life to save or care for his teammates... forget about it!
Yammy now shows concern for Kukkapuro during the battle, proving that a bond has formed between them, though Yammy is unaware of it.
"Comrades? Who knows! But one thing is undeniable: if you hadn't come here, this battle wouldn't have happened, and that guy wouldn't be dead..."
Yammy's mind suddenly sharpened, and he attributed the entire cause and effect to Zero. His dormant anger caused Yammy's Reiatsu to begin to change again.
Yammy's Reiatsu was still rising; if it was 10.1 just now, it had definitely reached 12.
Calculated using Captain-level Reiatsu, it's equivalent to twelve times the Reiatsu of a standard Captain-level, which is quite terrifying...
Of course, this 'standard' refers to Captain-level who doesn't unleash their Zanpakuto under normal circumstances, meaning they already possess strength comparable to some Captain-level in their base state...
"It's gotten even stronger, damn it!"
"Lord Nangong is likely to lose..."
"Hmph, you underestimate that guy. He hasn't even Bankai yet! That's Soul Reaper's killing move."
"What? Lord Nangong hasn't even used his full strength yet?"
Grimmjow and Dordoni retreated even further. Faced with Dordoni's concern, Grimmjow looked at him with disdain and took the opportunity to show off his intelligence, which surprised the country bumpkin Dordoni.
Looking at Yammy, whose Reiatsu had risen another notch, Zero also felt a slight headache. With his current attack power, he would probably be exhausted before he could even take down Yammy.
"Hoo... Bankai: Blood Blade: Peerless!"
After letting out a long sigh, Zero slowly uttered a few words, and his body began to emit red light. The red light shooting straight into the sky changed the celestial phenomena, and a large patch of Hongyun appeared in the sky under the pure white Moonlight.
Dark red raindrops fell for more than ten seconds. After the red light disappeared, the raindrops also disappeared. The Blood Drink Sword remained almost unchanged, but Zero himself changed a lot.
Aside from her face, Zero's skin began to turn red, and her pupils glowed red. A dark red iron crown connected to her flesh and blood appeared on her head, with two horns. Her long black hair was bound by the iron crown and hung down her back. Armor connected to her flesh and blood appeared on her legs, feet, wrists, and shoulders.
A pair of red demonic wings appeared on his back, connected to his shoulder blades, resembling 'Aatrox', and his appearance was extremely evil.
"My Reiatsu only increased this little? But my body feels like it's about to fall apart, it's cracking and splintering. It seems I still can't handle the burden of Bankai..."
Zero muttered to himself, intoxicated by this powerful feeling. He secretly attempted to use Bankai more than once, trying to adapt, but each time it overwhelmed him and made it hard to breathe.
His Reiatsu had already broken through the critical point, reaching 11. Don't underestimate this small increase; it almost crushed Zero's body.
Zero is not Yammy; he possesses unique advantages. His ability is to increase his power through anger. Before his power increases, his body will become larger and stronger in order to better withstand the immense Reiatsu.
Yammy's physique is fully capable of withstanding even more Reiatsu, enough to break through the 'critical point' and advance to the next level...
"They were hiding something? Come on! Make me even angrier!"
After Yammy stabilized his Reiatsu, he saw that Zero had also entered a new form. He raised his giant fist, which was thirty meters wide, and smashed it down.
"That suits me perfectly. I'll kill you within ten minutes!"
Because Bankai a great strain on his body, Zero needed to finish the fight quickly. He grabbed his Greatsword and charged at the giant beast with a flap of his wings.
The giant fist missed its target, but the immense force pierced through the desert, shattering the Quartz Trees beneath the sand and causing sand to continuously flow into the Menos Grande Forest.
Yammy's terrifying destructive power was on full display. Just now, he had to use Cero to break through, but now he only needed one punch. If he continued like this, the Menos Grande Forest, which spanned several hundred square kilometers, would probably be destroyed.
