Nel's Resolve

The enemy is unknown; they appear to be Quincy, but they are not using bows and arrows in combat. This mysterious opponent should not be pursued further.

Gin Ichimaru was analyzing the situation, a surge of spiritual pressure erupted from Yammy's direction. It seemed Yammy shared the same idea. He concealed his sword behind his wide sleeve, "Bankai!"

Gin Ichimaru's opponent immediately pulled out a palm-sized badge, which split into five parts, absorbing a large amount of Reishi into it. Even Gin Ichimaru's spiritual pressure fluctuated.

Gin Ichimaru frowned, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, before coming to Soul Society, Urahara Kisuke had told him about some of the Quincy's abilities.

"That must be the power of plundered Bankai, right?" A white pendant appeared on Gin Ichimaru's chest. "Too bad, useless, Shinsō!"

The sharp blade flashed, piercing through the badge on the opponent's palm and striking directly at the target's face. With just one hit, Gin Ichimaru would secure victory.

With a crisp clang, the opponent's face was covered in a black iron color, and many bloodline-like Reishi patterns appeared.

"Ineffective? Never mind." The man put away the broken badge and said, "Your move was indeed powerful; any one of us would have been hit by that strike. It's just a pity you ran into me."

"The Sternritter, I, Cang Du!"

As he finished speaking, Cang Du activated the power of his Vollständig. Emerging from the enormous Radiant Quincy Cross, he did not have dazzling wings, but his entire body was covered in fine scales.

Cang Du's Saint Letters is steel, and his Vollständig is the transformation of his entire body into steel. Those fine, snake-like scales are the embodiment of his Vollständig.

Gin Ichimaru squinted, a hint of worry in his eyes. According to the plan Tsuna was supposed to introduce them to the Quincy, but instead, he suddenly returned to Soul Society.

The Vice-Captain brought back news that when Grimmjow returned from Soul Society, Tsuna brought a group of people to exchange information and hand over intelligence to them.

Unfortunately, everything was timed perfectly. If Gin Ichimaru had known that his Zanpakuto couldn't easily pierce an enemy's body, he wouldn't have chosen to fight Cang Du -on.

Instead, he hid in a corner and launched a sneak attack on Cang Du, taking him down before Gin Ichimaru Cang Du notice his presence.

The current Cang Du would definitely not let Gin Ichimaru hide so easily. Gin Ichimaru glanced at his necklace, which was a crystallization of Hollow's power. If it weren't for Urahara Kisuke to use the Shadow-Infusion Medicine, he probably would have even had his Bankai stolen by the other party.

Does this mean I have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it? I wonder how things are going with the Yammy...

Yammy wasn't having an easy time either. Transformed into Enraged Beast, he discovered that no matter what kind of attack he launched, it had no effect on the robot. Whether it was Cero or Bala, the robot could see through all his attacks after just one hit.

Instead, the Quincy continued to provoke him with flat, emotionless words, seemingly trying to force out even greater power from Yammy Yammy to collect more data from him.

After seeing Cang Du use his Vollständig, the man no longer concealed himself, introducing himself and releasing his Vollständig: "Sternritter, K, Bi Jie Nein."

A red Quincy Cross rose up, and emerging from Quincy Cross Bazz-B had wings made of twisted steel pipes. Fine Reishi particles flowed on the wings, as if mimicking the way mechanical equipment processes data streams.

"Yammy Rialgo, if this is all you've contributed, then you should just die."

Countless steel pipes shot out from Bazz-B's body, twisting and transforming into various modern weapons, with guns and shells unfurling behind him like wings.

For Bazz-B, Yammy, who could not provide him with new data, were worthless; worthless things only deserved to be disposed of.

A barrage of ammunition flew toward Yammy. Yammy's mountain-like body was not able to completely dodge so many projectiles. In fact, his dodge positions were analyzed, and then a barrage of shells rained down on him.

This is Bazz-B's ability: information reading. Without the Vollständig, he can only read the enemy's attacks, which is why he is repeatedly hit by Yammy.

After using the Vollständig, Bazz-B's information reading ability is no longer limited to attack. He will analyze the enemy's combat personality in all aspects and analyze the enemy's combat intentions from the collected data.

In other words, if they fail to defeat Bazz-B instantly, they will be tortured to death by his data reading ability.

Gin Ichimaru and Yammy were both locked in a fierce battle, a fact that Halibel was unaware of. However, a strange feeling crept into her mind: if they didn't hurry back, perhaps Las Noches would truly fall.

Mila and the other two are still at Las Noches, along with those little Arrancar who greeted her so warmly...

Although she hasn't been the sheriff for long, Halibel has to admit that protecting other people's lives is quite enjoyable, at least more hopeful than in the past.

Halibel glanced at Nel, who was still struggling in the corner of her eye. Halibel had seen the changes in Las Noches. Given time, these changes would spread to Hueco Mundo. Nel could not die, at least not in front of her!

A powerful water-attribute spiritual pressure condensed behind Halibel, and a heart-shaped torrent appeared behind her, just like the scene when she Resurrección. The difference was that Halibel was not going to Resurrección, but to unleash all her spiritual pressure.

The symbol of "sacrifice" shines once again on Halibel; she would make this choice without hesitation as long as it is for her companions.

"Stop, Halibel!" Nel realized Halibel's intentions and quickly called out to stop Halibel actions.

Halibel, of course, wouldn't listen to Nel. Although Nel is now the nominal King of Hueco Mundo, they were all once the Third Espada, so it's not really certain who is stronger.

"Oh? Did you ask my the Jail about it?" Cang Du said with a smile, and launched another Reishi ball. The Reishi the Jail managed to compress the water flow that erupted from Halibel into a water ball.

Seeing Halibel's relentless pace, Nel gritted her teeth and flipped out a black orb. The only thing that could stop Halibel now was to break free from her current predicament.

To escape, one must possess greater power. This sphere was taken by Tsuna from Aizen's laboratory, supposedly to grant Arrancar greater power. However, its specific effects are unconfirmed, and it's unknown whether Aizen added anything to it.

But there's no time for Nel to choose now. Rather than letting Halibel sacrifice herself for the unknown of escaping the Jail, it's better for her to take the risk!

"Halibel, listen up! I am the King of Hueco Mundo, leave this to me!"

For the first time Nel unleashed the aura of a superior, her unstoppable domineering presence forcefully awakening Halibel, who was lost in the throes of power.

The current gradually subsided, Halibel saw that Nel had placed something on the top of her head. (It is said that Nel's Hollow Hole is on the top of her head.)

The moment the fake Hogyoku was placed into the Hollow Hole, a blinding purple light emanated from Nel. In that instant, Nel felt as if her heart, which had been empty for countless years, had been filled.

A new power spread from the Hollow Hole, and an incredibly terrifying spiritual pressure erupted instantly. Under the illumination of this purple light, the Jail of Cang Du collapsed on its own.

This is the power that Aizen spoke of, a power that only the Espada can wield. The spiritual pressure that erupted in that instant was terrifying. Ordinary Arrancar simply do not have the ability to control this kind of spiritual pressure and would be directly torn apart by it and die.

The reason Loly Loly the experiment was because Aizen was present and forcibly suppressed the erupting power back into the Hollow Hole.

Forcibly taking control of this unfamiliar spiritual pressure, Nel felt the Hogyoku gradually merging with her body, and her body was also undergoing changes little by little.

The antelope's body, originally grayish-brown, began to turn brown and white. The area on its upper body that was originally covered by armor was replaced with contrasting two-tone fur. Its hair changed from green to azure blue, and its tail and back were the same color as its hair.

The antelope mask on her head disappeared quietly, replaced by two more twisted antelope horns. The biggest change was her weapon, which changed from Double-headed Spear to a single-headed Spiral Spear, with bright purple spiritual pressure covering both the spearhead and the tail.

Nel's Hogyoku Fusion Form.

The crisp sound of sheep's hooves rang out, and every step Nel took put immense pressure on Cang Du. Stark and Halibel had been freed when she released the Hogyoku Fusion, and the two stood behind Nel, their eyes filled with unconcealed shock.

"Hey, I've never heard of that before!"

A hint of fear crept into Cang Du's words. Nel was able to break through the Jail so easily, it meant that his Saint Letters was no longer effective.

No matter how terrified he is, he cannot back down. As a Quincy, Cang Du must defend his Quincy honor.

The scattered spots of light converged toward Cang Du, and his Vollständig began to exhibit various strange characteristics, all of which were the main features of the Arrancar he had killed.

Sklaverei, the absolute subordinate of the Reishi, Cang Du suppressed his nausea and completely destroyed his Hollow body into Reishi, which then gathered into his own body. In this way, he could more or less increase his strength.

"Even in this ugly form, we will fight to the very end. That's Quincy is!"

Cang Du was filled with fighting spirit. As the executive captain of the Hueco Mundo Hunting Team, when he raised his saber, the Quincy behind him simultaneously raised their Spirit Bow and Arrows at Nel.

Before the imagined rain of swords could fall, Cang Du, who had just raised his sword and declared war, discovered a hole the size of a bowl in his abdomen. Nel had already appeared behind him, holding his spear horizontally.

Only Stark and Halibel saw it clearly: Nel simply raised her gun and gracefully stepped forward. Before Cang Du could even react, Nel pierced him with a single shot.

Ignoring the stunned Quincy, Nel quickly moved her hooves and swept past Stark and Halibel.

"There's no time, let's go!"

"Hello..."

Stark knew that Nel wasn't intentionally letting the other Quincy escape; Nel was more concerned about the situation at Las Noches. Watching Nel's retreating figure, Stark could only wave his hand, unleashing a series of Cero, before following suit and leaving.

As for how many Quincy will survive, that's not Stark needs to worry about right now.

(PS: Regarding Cang Du and Bazz-B, I feel that these two are not that weak. Kubo was probably rushed and didn't even draw their Vollständig before removing them from the story.)
