The barrage of Cero from thousands of Gillian was even more powerful than Picaro's Cero, but the charging Adjuchas from Las Noches suddenly had bright yellow Negación emanating from their bodies.
It was clear that Adjuchas was controlling the Gillian protect them; this tactic had long been used by both sides to perfection.
The Sky Cover Cero were deflected, some flying into the sky, others crashing into the desert and raising sandstorms, making visibility on the battlefield almost zero.
After the first row of thousands of Gillian finished releasing their Cero, the second row had also completed their formation. They took a few steps forward, passing the first row, and continued to release Cero to bombard the dusty battlefield. Then the third row moved forward.
The Blood Panther Group employed a tactic similar to the ancient European practice of 'shooting in formation', constantly rotating and advancing.
Some of the Adjuchas on the Las Noches side were vaporized on the spot, simply because the Gillian they were controlling failed to accurately release the Negación, causing their position to deviate, forcing them to dodge, but they were still hit in the end.
'If this army of Menos Grande were to march into Soul Society, they'd be invincible!'
Zero was thrilled to witness such a scene for the first time. In Soul Society, even a single Gillian might require Captain-level to deal with, let alone thousands.
"Haha, yes, that's how we smash their kennel. What kind of skill is it to hide inside?"
Grimmjow saw that dozens of Cero had hit the walls of Las Noches, creating dozens of large craters, and he couldn't help but shout with joy.
It wasn't just Zero and Grimmjow who felt this excitement; the newly joined Adjuchas had never seen anything like it either, and their surging Reiatsu showed that they were in a state of excitement.
Just as they were celebrating, the desert behind the Blood Panther Group suddenly began to rise one after another. First, a Giant Hollow struggled to crawl out from underground. It had only one eye and its body was covered with lumps of flesh.
This is Fure, a Voidling from Las Noches that can create Gillian. He is also Wonderweiss's favorite subordinate. Although he cannot speak, he can understand commands.
After several Adjuchas beside Fure gave him commands, Fure opened his mouth wide and spat out hundreds of Gillian at once. The Adjuchas then began to control them to attack the rear of the Blood Panther Group.
Another mound of sand transformed into the Sand Giant, Lugurangaka, who guarded the desert near Las Noches for Baraggan and was known as the White Sand Guardian.
"Come out, Gillian!"
With a roar, Lugurangaka caused a section of the desert to sink underground, forming a sloping passage from which giant Gillian, hundreds of meters tall, emerged.
At this time, Fure was still spitting out Gillian, which had reached five hundred. Adding the Gillian brought out by Lugurangaka, the total number of Gillian reached two thousand.
Adding the three thousand scattered Gillian on Blood Panther's side, a total of five thousand Gillian in this area of less than one hundred square kilometers.
The flying Adjuchas in the sky were already locked in battle. They looked down at the earth, where black figures stood in dense, overwhelming numbers.
In terms of Gillian, the Blood Panther Group, which has traversed nearly half of Hueco Mundo, outnumbers Las Noches by a thousand.
The Blood Panther Group has only 180 Adjuchas, while Las Adjuchas, which occupies the area with the highest concentration of Reishi in Hueco Mundo Las Noches, has more than 320.
This is only the number of Adjuchas willing to Baraggan; there are also numerous Lone Wanderers hunters and small groups hiding in the vicinity who outwardly comply with Baraggan's demands but inwardly defy him...
"Gillian, turn around and attack from behind!"
The Blood Panther Group's commander had already prepared for what was behind them. The instant Fure spat out the Gillian, their Gillian had already split into a row and turned to fire Cero.
In an instant, a crimson Cero illuminated the sky, felling hundreds of Gillian.
Having lost their fighting ability, they were abandoned by Adjuchas. They let out terrified roars, but their own kind showed no mercy.
With Gillian's limited intelligence, he simply couldn't understand why they were fighting each other.
There are also Gillian understand the reason behind things; they possess normal consciousness and are among the few Gillians who can evolve into Adjuchas, only their numbers are small.
Very few of these Gillian were directly driven onto the battlefield. Usually, they were allowed to evolve into Adjuchas on their own before being conscripted. However, there were a few on the Las Noches side that didn't have time to evolve due to the rush...
On the aerial battlefield, Arafi led thirty-five freely soaring Adjuchas against more than fifty flying Adjuchas from Las Noches. The bodies of the fallen fell from the sky from time to time.
As a high-ranking sub-class, Arafi has already taken the lives of three low-ranking sub-class enemies. He is currently engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy's leader—a strange winged flying serpent.
It's obvious that Arafi is no match for them; they've fought several times already, and each time Arafi has been at a disadvantage.
In another fierce clash, Arafi was struck by the opponent's massive snake tail and plummeted from the sky with a scream.
"Hiss, that's enough, Arafi!"
The flying serpent was overjoyed after seeing the situation clearly, and it folded its wings and swooped down towards Arafi.
"Heh heh, it's not over yet! Gillian, Cero!"
"That damn bastard."
Arafi let out two eerie laughs and roared as he commanded the Gillian. The Gillian in this area belonged to the Blood Panther Group. Those flying snakes that got too close saw the Cero coming and could only curse.
Not far away, more than fifty Gillian raised their heads and unleashed the Cero they had been gathering in their mouths, covering a large area. The flying snake, which was trying to dodge by Sonído, was unfortunately hit and turned into ashes on the spot.
"Hahaha... Ugh! Damn it."
Amidst laughter, Arafi took flight, only to be ambushed by an elongated tentacle, which pierced her chest and sent her crashing to the ground.
The chaotic battlefield allows no room for complacency; the slightest lapse in vigilance will only lead to death...
Within the massive walls of Las Noches, a Void resembling a giant toad emerged from the sand. It opened its mouth wide and spat out a gigantic beam of Reishi light.
When the light stabilized, it transformed into a giant mushroom. The two were none other than Yaxiao and Mushroom Head, who were not on the front lines of the battle, along with five Adjuchas.
Yaxiao used his abilities to transport the giant Mushroom Head to this location, and then the Mushroom Head began releasing large quantities of Gillian from within, blasting open the city walls from the inside...
On the main battlefield, the sub-class members of Las Noches have already stormed into the Blood Panther Group's Gillian defenses and are wreaking havoc, while the Blood Panther's Adjuchas have also joined the battle.
Grimmjow couldn't contain his agitation any longer. He charged forward, laughing wildly, intending to slaughter those weak enemies who had once mocked and ridiculed him.
At that moment, the opposite city wall suddenly shook. Baraggan and several of his personal guards were on the wall. They turned around and looked towards the back of Las Noches, where a large group of Gillian Cero.
"Hmph, trying to break through from within? Bo, Nierge, Daruga, go and wipe them out!"
Baraggan named three of the eight Adjuchas around him, ordering them to go back and kill the three large, high-ranking sub-adjuchas.
Even after the war began, they were still able to stand by Baraggan's side, and their strength was recognized by Baraggan, who regarded them as elite Guards.
Of course, they can only be somewhat wary of assassins with special abilities like Yaxiao; if the assassin is Vasto Lorde, they are powerless to stop him...
"It's time. Since they're unwilling to take the initiative, then let us do it!"
Zero also noticed that Yaxiao had arrived. He spoke to Ulquiorra beside him and then used his Reiatsu to send a message to Grimmjow, asking him to help his Adjuchas establish an absolute advantage.
Since the enemy still has two main generals who haven't appeared, we need to kill Baraggan first to force them out...
In the distance, on the edge of the battlefield, in a stone forest, two Adjuchas, locked in combat, arrived at this spot amidst their attacks and evasions.
After a fierce battle, the Adjuchas from the Blood Panther Group emerged victorious. Just as he was about to enjoy his meal and take a short break, he noticed an Adjuchas hiding on a rock behind him.
"A sneaky scoundrel!"
The Blood Panther Group member, whose lower body had eight legs and whose upper body had a bull's head, roared and then turned to release a Bala in that direction.
A Hollow appeared, with the upper body of a human female and the lower body of a sheep. She jumped from the attacked rock to another rock, and then released a terrifying Reiatsu, startling the 'lazy crab cow'.
Glug!
The lazy crab-cow swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Vasto Lorde!"
The Half-Human Sheep merely glanced at him before disappearing in a leap. The lazy crab-cow wasn't attacked, but the threatening Reiatsu he'd just experienced made him realize he couldn't afford to provoke them.
"No, we have to report this to the adults right away! There are Vasto Lorde watching us!"
The lazy crab-cow was in no mood to slack off. It quickly nibbled on its opponent's mask, then Sonído and ran on all eight legs, quickly leaving the dangerous area.
As he fled, the Half-Human Sheep Menos Grande was watching the distant battlefield from a higher rock.
"They've already regained their rationality; they don't need to devour anything or worry about regressing. So why create this kind of war?"
The Half-Human Sheep asked a question in a slightly cute voice, but unfortunately, no one could answer it. She continued to lower her Reiatsu and then went to hide in another Rock Mountain, determined not to participate in the killing...
Boom!
The massive walls of Las Noches collapsed with a crash, and Zero and Ulquiorra suddenly appeared before Baraggan. Without a word, the two were about to attack.
Baraggan's five Guards immediately blocked their way—four high-level sub-class and one peak sub-class—showing no fear whatsoever.
Several thorns entangled them first, but Zero didn't even glance at them and directly Sonído them to attack Baraggan. Ulquiorra also understood instantly, taking the initiative to stay behind to intercept a few Adjuchas, and with a few waves of his hand, he cut down these obstacles.
"Go to hell!"
The peak-level sub-class being resembled a tiger. It conjured a deep purple Cero and took the opportunity to strike Ulquiorra.
"Overestimating yourself!"
Even when mocked, Ulquiorra showed no expression. Before the purple Cero arrived, he raised his finger to condense his own blue Cero, and the two different colored Cero clashed above the city wall.
However, it can be seen that the blue Cero that followed continuously dispersed and neutralized the purple Cero, eventually striking the tiger with its remaining power.
"Got you? Let's go together."
The strangely-looking Thorn Hollow said, taking advantage of Ulquiorra's unpreparedness to entangle his feet with thorns, while the other three elite Guards rushed forward.
