Fervent Explosive Maniac
"You guys... did a really good job..."
A hoarse voice came from within the smoke. As the firelight dissipated, Bambietta's figure slowly emerged. Her clothes were tattered and torn, and large areas of charred black fabric were slowly emitting wisps of smoke. From the moment she became Quincy, Bambietta had never felt so disheveled.
Toshiro, who had Zanpakuto pointing his Zanpakuto at Bambietta, paused for a moment when he saw Bambietta's arms and legs exposed to the air.
Fortunately, Toshiro had been trained (teasing) by Rangiku for many years, and his eyes cleared up in an instant. However, Karin was standing nearby, still noticed this scene.
"Honestly, all men are like this..."
Karin shook her head understandingly. At this moment, she had a very mature mind and did not have any different opinions about Toshiro like some young girls.
Karin's understanding made Toshiro a little embarrassed. He asked Karin, "That's wrong? I didn't do anything..."
"I understand. Sometimes when Ichigo is with Orihime, he also blushes and argues with me and Yuzu like that. I understand." Karin said in a mature tone.
Bambietta was stunned to see Karin and Toshiro chatting right in front of her; she seemed to have forgotten all her pain.
What are they doing? A formidable enemy is still in front of them!
She had just survived a near-death experience; if it weren't for that half-baked Blut Vene, Bambietta would have been burned to ashes by her own abilities.
In her weakened state, those two brats didn't even bother to finish her off; instead, they flirted right in front of her. Did they even respect her as the strongest female Quincy of the Sternritter?
To Bambietta, Karin and Toshiro's bickering was just flirting, and seeing it on such a fierce battlefield was worse than killing her.
Bambietta felt her reason had completely snapped; if she didn't kill those two brats soon, she knew she would go insane.
"Evolve! Evolve!"
Bambietta's roar attracted the attention of Karin and Toshiro. Her spiritual pressure suddenly became strange, her veins bulged, and red spiritual pressure spread from her wings, gradually forming a highly modern mechanical weapon on Bambietta's body.
The bird-shaped helmet armor transformed the rest of the body into angular mechanical modules, and the originally soft wings were now tightly attached to Bambietta's body, giving it a streamlined design that resembled a vertically mounted fighter jet.
The humanoid fighter jet, the evolutionary path chosen for Bambietta by Pernida's evolutionary nervous system, is a fighter jet capable of continuously dropping bombs in the air. Bambietta can switch between her mecha and humanoid forms at any time, much like a simplified Transformer.
The first person to notice Bambietta's change was not Toshiro, who was facing her, but rather Jūshirō Ukitake was fighting a giant hand far away in Rukongai.
The moment Bambietta shouted "Evolve!", Ukitake immediately turned his head toward Bambietta, his face showing a mixture of confusion and shock.
After Ukitake used Kido to block Pernida's Spirit Bow and Arrows, he immediately confirmed his suspicions. "Why is your spiritual pressure in Seireitei?!"
Ukitake, who possesses the Soul King's Right Hand, is extremely sensitive to the spiritual pressure emanating from Pernida's Soul King's Left Hand. He simply doesn't understand how Pernida, who has been fighting him all along, managed to place her spiritual pressure into the Seireitei.
Pernida didn't directly answer Ukitake's question, always offering ambiguous statements like, "The left hand symbolizes progress; we Quincy will all usher in our own evolution."
The instant Pernida finished speaking, several more Pernida -like spiritual pressures were sensed throughout Soul Society. Ukitake hurriedly glanced at the Impermanence Chart and saw that the locations of those spiritual pressure bursts were all Sternritter members he had transferred.
Evolution... Ukitake immediately understood, "You're using Soul King's power to grant the Quincy power that doesn't belong to them?"
"What Soul King? That's my power, Pernida's power! I allowed their evolution!" Pernida launched another fierce attack on Ukitake.
Evolution, this unknown ability, has tilted the balance of power on the battlefield slightly in favor of the Quincy. The Bleach's greatest advantage lies in their intelligence on the Quincy.
Pernida's transfer of the power of evolution to the Quincy undoubtedly adds many variables to this war.
"If I eliminate you, does that mean the power of evolution will disappear?" Ukitake asked with a serious expression.
Evolution never stops!
"I represent stillness, and I can stop your evolution!" Ukitake roared, and a black aura spread from his back. After fighting for so long, Ukitake was finally going to use the power of the Soul King's Right Hand.
Let's return our focus to the battlefield where Toshiro was. The moment he saw Bambietta transform, Toshiro immediately unleashed an ice dragon.
Just as the ice dragon was about to crash into her, Bambietta stood with her arms and legs together, raised her head, and temporarily transformed into a fighter jet. Her Hirenkyaku also turned into jet-shaped flames under her feet, and with a sudden acceleration, she escaped from Toshiro's attack range.
Toshiro immediately controlled the ice dragon to give chase, but no matter how fast he accelerated, he could not catch up with Bambietta's fighter jet.
"Hey Hitsugaya, give me some ice!" Karin said from the side.
Karin can also shoot compressed spirit orbs, but she doesn't think she can effectively damage Bambietta in her current state by relying solely on the power she gathers. It would be more practical to ask Toshiro for some rather than try to gather them herself.
Toshiro immediately conjured an ice dragon with his left claw and coiled it around Karin, asking, "Can you do it?"
Karin immediately used her gloves to hold the ice dragon, and activated the compression force, quickly condensing the ice dragon into an ice ball. "Just shooting birds, that's my specialty!"
Karin stood with her feet apart, holding the ice puck above her head with both hands, and bent her body backward, just like throwing a shot put in the World of the Living. Using her body's elasticity, she used herself as a slingshot, ready to fire at Bambietta.
Under Ryūken's tutelage, Karin gradually abandoned the normal Spirit Bow. In close to mid-range combat, she could fully utilize ball skills, while in ultra-long-range combat, Ryūken taught her a method that transformed herself into Spirit Bow.
With anticipation and aim, Karin launched the spirit ball at Bambietta, which landed precisely on the path of Bambietta's next change of direction.
With an ice hockey puck in front and an ice dragon behind, Bambietta was about to be attacked from both sides when two missile-like weapons suddenly appeared under her wings and were launched towards the ice hockey puck.
Boom!
An explosion rang out, and Bambietta plunged headfirst into the smoke and dust. Before Toshiro's ice dragon could catch up, a bursting arrow pierced through the ice dragon's body.
As the smoke cleared, Bambietta, clad in her battle armor, finally revealed a triumphant laugh. The instant she entered the smoke, she transformed into human form. The penetrating power of the Spirit Bow and Arrows far surpassed that of the explosive bomb.
The power of evolution is so useful; she wants to kill these two brats. Bambietta's mind has begun to be affected by Pernida's nerves, turning her into a monster who only knows how to fight.
Bambietta transformed back into its fighter jet form and flew rapidly towards the sky above the Sennen Hyōrō. Suspecting that Bambietta was trying to escape, Toshiro immediately reinforced the defenses at the top of the Sennen Hyōrō.
Instead of flying out of the ice prison, Bambietta quickly transformed into human form upon reaching the top and launched a bomb downwards.
Upon seeing the bomb, Toshiro instinctively threw out several Swarm of Birds Ice Pillars, which were quickly intercepted by the Frost Birds mid-air within the ice prison.
The bomb exploded instantly, releasing a large amount of mist.
Upon seeing this, Karin immediately had a bad feeling. This thing seemed to be similar to something she had seen online. It was too late to compress the gas, because the gas would explode, and she couldn't compress it at all!
Karin immediately pounced on Toshiro, her World of the Living consciousness making her instinctively lie down. "Get down!"
Boom!
An explosion capable of filling the entire Sennen Hyōrō occurred instantly; it was a thermobaric bomb. Bambietta had moved to the very edge of the Sennen Hyōrō to minimize the impact of this attack.
As for Toshiro and Karin below, they were both within the range of the explosion due to Bambietta's deliberate push.
Now, Bambietta no longer cares about what will happen to Toshiro and Karin. In the midst of this violent explosion, the Sennen Hyōrō shattered, and the sky was high for birds to fly freely.
If we consider Bambietta's original nature, she would indeed be like that, but after Pernida's nerves took control of her brain, all that remained in her mind was to kill the enemy in front of her.
Bambietta flew a distance, circled around, and flew back. Only after she saw the corpses of Toshiro and Karin with her own eyes could she break Pernida's nerve control.
Beneath the terrifying smoke and dust, Bambietta immediately sensed the presence of two spiritual pressures. Realizing that the two brats were still alive, Bambietta's eyes instantly turned red, and she prepared to throw another cloud-burst bomb into the smoke and dust.
An ice blade flew out from the smoke and dust, forcing Bambietta, who was preparing to attack, to switch to human form to stop the attack, which was also interrupted by the ice blade.
Amidst the dust and smoke from the flying ice blades, Bambietta saw a completely new Toshiro Hitsugaya.
All the thick ice armor brought by Bankai Daiguren Hyōrinmaru was removed, Toshiro only retained the Dragon Claws transformation of his hands and feet.
A pair of small ice dragon horns appeared on Toshiro's forehead, and an ice crystal cloak connected to a green ribbon. There was also a small ice Dragon Scales on his chest.
Four ice dragon wings appeared behind Toshiro, with three blood-red ice lotuses floating between them.
