Fortune, Frenzied Slashes, and Sin

Having blocked his own punch, Yammy looked at the fat man, who was just as tall as him, with a slightly higher regard, but it was only a glance. In his eyes, Ōmaeda was no different from the others; they were all weaklings.

"Three of you, I don't have time to play around with you, so hurry up and finish this off." Yammy drew his Zanpakuto and activated his Resurrección. "Unleash your fury, you Enraged Beast!"

Yammy's body swelled up after just a few words, even blowing off the roof of the palace they were in. With 12 legs and two arms, he was taller and more imposing than a mountain.

"Even though I was mentally prepared, this is still too big!" Yammy's size made Ōmaeda exclaim in surprise. Some things are completely different in reality than in the information.

"Tch, even if it's bigger, it'll still be my defeated foe!" The petite Hiyori, seeing the enormous Yammy, felt a surge of anger. She grabbed her Zanpakuto and charged forward, shouting, "Cut him down! Kubi Orochi!"

Hiyori held a serrated broadsword in her hand, but such a broadsword was nothing more than Yammy in front of the mountain of Yami.

The Kubi Orochi drew sparks across Yammy's chest, but Hiyori couldn't hurt him at all. This was the defensive capability of the Steel Skin on the body of Espada who could become Arrancar Yammy.

Not to mention Yammy after his Resurrección, whose number has changed from 10 to 0, making him the strongest Espada in terms of physical strength.

"I sense something similar to me in you. If you use those abilities, you might have a chance," Yammy began to mock Hiyori. Even if Hiyori were to use Hollow spiritual pressure, he was confident he could crush Hiyori with one hand.

"I don't need you to teach me!"

Hiyori had barely finished replying when Yammy's fist was already in front of her. After his battle with Tsuna, he was no longer so prejudiced against so-called weaklings, and his so-called mockery was just to divert Hiyori's attention.

In a flash, a dark figure rescued Hiyori. It was Ōmaeda again; among the people present, only his Flash Step could match that speed.

"Be careful, don't forget this is an enemy that the three of us need to fight together!"

Omaeda, who was usually not very reliable in front of his captain, took on the responsibilities of a senior at this moment, looking very serious, completely unlike his timid and fearful self in the past.

"I see!"

Hiyori is angry with herself. She can't even handle such a small verbal attack and needs her teammates to save her. This is extremely shameful.

Hiyori can't let Yammy's verbal attacks continue. She's going to get real, "Bankai!"

With a Bankai, Hiyori's spiritual pressure exploded out, and she once again drew her sword and slashed at Yammy, "Hyakusatsu Kubi Orochi!"

With a clang, Yammy remained unharmed. He said with amusement, "Can this even be considered Bankai? It was just a burst of spiritual pressure?"

Yammy wasn't wrong in his mockery. Hiyori's Bankai didn't even change its basic appearance; it was still that serrated sword, and it still had the same attack power. It looked no different from her Shikai.

Yammy didn't notice that after Hiyori made that cut, there was a slightly unusual spiritual pressure on her Kubi Orochi.

"I thought there was something special about this, how boring." Just as Yammy was about to swat Hiyori off him like he was swatting a bug, a huge golden meteor hammer smashed into his arm.

The pained Yammy looked down the Chains of the meteor hammer and saw at the other end was Ōmaeda, who had saved Hiyori twice.

Bankai! A mighty throw - Five Forms Head!

At this moment, Ōmaeda exuded the air of a nouveau riche, with various gold chains and watches, and even two rings on each finger. His meteor hammer, named Five-Shaped Head, was dyed gold, as if he wanted everyone to know how wealthy he was.

"Oh? You made a profit!" A small gold coin landed in Ōmaeda's hand; it was the reward for Gogyō-tō's earlier hit on Yammy.

"Stable financial management" is one of Ōmaeda's Bankai abilities. Successfully hitting an enemy grants him spiritual pressure as a reward, which is then converted into gold ornaments for safekeeping. However, since the earnings are not substantial, it can only be categorized as "stable."

This ability also has a downside: if Ōmaeda is hit by an enemy, his gold jewelry will be randomly removed, which is part of his financial failure.

This ability puts a great strain on Ōmaeda's agility. To make money steadily and reliably in the long run, he must use his nimble Shunpo (Flash Step) to dodge all of the enemy's attacks while simultaneously striking them with his weapon.

"I almost forgot about you guys!"

Facing Yammy's continuous punches, Ōmaeda barely dodged them all with his exquisite Flash Step, the Squad 2 Vice-Captain. While dodging, he didn't forget to attack the Five Elements Head, and gold coins fell into his pocket one by one, making him beam with joy.

Hiyori started trimming Yammy, ignoring everything else and just hacking away wildly. The changes in her Zanpakuto became more and more obvious with each strike.

Given Hiyori's straightforward personality, it's impossible for her to have any complicated Bankai. Her Bankai power is simply a straightforward numerical value, but she needs to exchange for it through slashes before obtaining its full power.

To some extent, Hiyori's Bankai was not fully mastered, much like Ikkaku's Ryumon Hozukimaru. He couldn't unleash the power of Bankai immediately and had to use slashes to awaken it, which is an immature half -Bankai.

Yammy's mouth and fists flashed red simultaneously, and his two different techniques, Cero and Bala, allowed him to deal with two enemies at the same time.

However, Ōmaeda and Hiyori acted as if they didn't see Yammy's attack and continued to launch attacks on Yammy with great enthusiasm.

He gathered spiritual pressure and released it, but just before releasing it, Yammy suddenly felt his body become extremely heavy, and the two attacks he had prepared went astray, completely missing their target.

Yammy then realized that Ōmaeda and Hiyori had planned this all along, and that there was someone else helping them!

As his gaze shifted, Yammy finally noticed Yoshika Izuru, who had been barely noticeable. Izuru Kira was now surrounded by black aura, and while his Zanpakuto remained unchanged, a stone tablet wrapped in Chains had appeared on his back.

Only after that did Yammy see two Chains extending from the stone tablet, pointing directly at where he was.

Noticing Yammy's gaze, Izuru Kira raised his head high one last time and said to Yammy, "Wabisuke, recount your sins!"

As soon as Izuru Kira finished speaking, Yammy vaguely saw a new line of text on the stone tablet on Izuru Kira's back. Even though it was very far away, he could clearly "see" the content on it.

On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, at a certain place, a virtual being named xx was killed...

Even Yammy didn't know this name, let alone in Hueco Mundo, where mutual devouring is commonplace, so what kind of sin is this?

Just as Yammy was about to question it, he found that his body had been shackled again, making him even heavier, and that another Chains had been added to the stone tablet.

Now Yammy was absolutely certain that the changes in his body were Izuru Kira's doing. As long as he killed Izuru Kira, he wouldn't have to hold himself back anymore.

However, as soon as this thought crossed his mind, Yammy felt his body become heavier, and two more lines of so-called sins appeared on the stone tablet.

This is Izuru Kira's Bankai. Compared to Shikai, which adds weight by Shikai a single cut, Bankai expands it to the level of sin.

The judgment stone behind him will determine the sins of the target and reveal them one by one. These sins will turn into pure gravity and press down on the original owner. In the end, the target may be crushed to death by this invisible mountain of sins.

Izuru Kira was far from easy. As the judgment began, the weight of the stone tablet increased, forcing Izuru Kira, as a guilty man, to bend over. When his sins became too great, he couldn't even lift his head.

Crimes like murdering Hollows are inevitable for any Arrancar. Just as Yammy thought, this is just common in Hueco Mundo. The only way to become stronger is to devour Hollows and gradually grow stronger.

Therefore, Izuru Kira's Bankai is a guaranteed control ability in Hueco Mundo, binding him and Ōmaeda together. The purpose is to use Kira's control over the field to cover up Ōmaeda's imperfect Flash Step, allowing Ōmaeda to maximize the power of his Bankai.

As for adding Hiyori, it's because Hiyori's sword can easily tear through the Steel Skin of these Arrancar.

A sharp pain jolted Yammy out of his thoughts. He then noticed a long scar on his chest, revealing that his prized Steel Skin, once Resurrección, had been breached.

"Juzan, Armor Break."

Hiyori's voice came from behind Yammy. Only when her Zanpakuto was unsealed to its Armor Break state would she dare to really cause trouble for Yammy.

Another tear appeared on his back. Yammy was in great pain and couldn't wait to grab the person back, but ended up leaving another mark on his palm.

With Izuru Kira in control, Hiyori and Ōmaeda could fight with complete freedom, attacking wherever they pleased.

Especially Hiyori, having tasted the sweetness of the Juzan, is already eager to experience the power of her Bankai, the Hundred Slashes.

Her Zanpakuto ignored the location and the injury, and just kept wreaking havoc on Yammy's skin.

Yammy's rage was rising, and his body was growing larger and larger, vaguely showing signs of catching up with his raging state. However, at this time, Yammy did not have a large amount of food stored up, and he was still far from being truly enraged.

With the increase in his physical strength and power, the advantage immediately came. Yammy briefly ignored the weight of his sins and attacked Ōmaeda with his hands flashing red.

Just now, he acquired the habit left behind by Ōmaeda's Flash Step. As long as he finds this target, he can hit Ōmaeda with his prediction!

A fist carrying Bala appeared in front of Ōmaeda, but just as it was about to strike, Yammy's body tilted to the side, missing the attack.

At Yammy's feet, Hiyori was smiling as she wiped her nose. Just now, her sword had completed the Hundred Slashes charge, and the entire Kubi Orochi had been doubled in size by spiritual pressure, with only one new ability added.

Bone Break.

With Armor Break and Bone Break combined, Hiyori used all her strength to sever one of Yammy's legs in a single strike.

"You!"

Just as Yammy's anger was about to flare up again, a tremendous force appeared on his back—a phantom image identical to the stone tablet behind Izuru Kira.

Sharing the burden means that the opponent will bear the same weight of sin as the user.

Yammy's size was so large that its weight was magnified by an equal amount, instantly pressing Yammy to the ground, where it struggled like a dehydrated fish.

High in the sky, seeing that the time was right, Ōmaeda gritted his teeth and activated another ability of his Bankai, Investment All-in all in.

The golden light emanating from his body flowed like water towards the hammer itself, concentrating all the valuables together to maximize the power of the Five Elements Head—this was Ōmaeda's All-in.

A look of pain at losing money appeared on Ōmaeda's face. Apart from the gold jewelry he had acquired through investments, most of it was indeed his own savings accumulated over the years.

His miraculous Bankai can be strengthened even with real money. With his savings in hand, Ōmaeda had only one thought: if he didn't have time to accumulate more, he would have no choice but to squander his fortune at the moment of Bankai in order to survive.

With the influx of money, the Five-Headed Head became like a huge meteorite, Yammy back covered in countless wounds—all the work of Hiyori. The Armor Break effect was complete, and it was time for Ōmaeda to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

He squandered his entire fortune, threw away a fortune in one fell swoop, and unleashed a five-faced head!
