Nnoitra leaped out of the ground.
This place was originally a mansion, but it was Cero, turning the house and its owner to ashes, leaving behind a bottomless crater.
He landed on the edge of the pit, tall and thin, looking up at the rooftops to the west.
Under the gray sky, a petite woman stood on the rooftop, with a small face, black bangs, and two long braids.
Wearing Shihakushō underneath a sleeveless white haori, he must be the captain of the Shinigami.
"Hey, shorty, is it you who killed Takehiko Tsunayashiro?"
Soi Fon didn't answer his question, glancing across at the other side, but there was no one there.
That ability to conceal Reiatsu meant that if one wasn't careful, they would lose sight of Shiraishi. Should they run away? Or hide nearby?
Neither of these scenarios is good for her.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, you little dwarf," Nnoitra asked again, unaware of what was happening outside, as he was in the underground laboratory.
All that is known is that Takehiko Tsunayashiro's Reiatsu suddenly disappeared, followed by a very powerful Reiatsu reaction.
Aizen's orders were to stay in the lab and wait for the enemy to come.
Rather than following Aizen's orders, he relied more on his own judgment and immediately used Cero to blast open the ground, choosing to take the initiative.
"I have nothing to say to Xu."
Soi Fon retorted coldly, then launched a counterattack against the nickname "little dwarf," "Not to mention, you filthy modified Void, now that your master is dead, do you think you can bark wildly everywhere?"
"Ha ha," Nnoitra laughed, then turned menacing, "Why do you females always make me so angry I want to crush you, Tesla!"
Thump! A blond, monstrous figure with a Hollow Hole right eye and otherwise handsome features Imitation Arrancar, Sonído beside him.
This is a movement method developed by the Menos Grande Imitation Arrancar, faster than the Shinigami's Shunpo, equivalent to spatial displacement, ignoring any obstacles.
The downside is that it's too fast, so fast that even the user finds it difficult to keep up. This causes Sonído to sometimes appear Shunpo, or at Shunpo same speed.
"Lord Nnoitra, what are your orders?"
Tesla's face was full of respect.
Nnoitra looked toward the guards of the Tsunayashiro Clan. From here to them, there were more than a dozen walls, a distance of about three or four kilometers.
Humans cannot see, Reiatsu cannot be limited by such a short distance.
His gaze made all the guards of the Tsunayashiro Clan and the members of the Stealth Force feel the heavy pressure coming from afar.
"Kill those guys." Nnoitra withdrew his gaze; he had no interest in the weaklings.
Of course, if it really comes down to a fight, he will show absolutely no mercy, regardless of strength or weakness; his motto is to crush all enemies with all his might.
"Yes." Tesla his head, and a Sonído disappeared from the room.
"Careful!"
Soi Fon loudly reminded the team members in the distance.
Thump.
Without a word, Nnoitra Sonído her side while she was distracted and trying to remind him.
From the moment the enemy-friend relationship is confirmed, every breath is part of the battle. Without this awareness, and if you're still worrying about others, you'll die!
The enormous crescent blade, accompanied by the sounds of wind and thunder, was determined to cleave the Soi Fon's body in one strike and end the battle.
The moment Soi Fon was shrouded in shadow, it reacted, advancing instead of retreating, using its petite size to glide forward and slip between Nnoitra's legs.
A sharp Suzumebachi pricked his ankle, and a pattern of a black butterfly appeared, but there was no time to prick it a second time.
Nnoitra kicked her in the face with his left foot.
She dodged with a somersault, her feet nimbly gripping Nnoitra's neck. Using her slender waist to push upwards, she tapped the back of Nnoitra's Suzumebachi with her right hand while her left hand, enveloped in Reiatsu, slashed fiercely at his temple.
I wanted to knock him senseless, and then strike him a couple of times while he was in the right frame of mind.
By simply tapping the same spot twice, the Suzumebachi's ability, Death in Two Steps, will come into play, instantly killing Nnoitra.
Bang.
With a muffled thud, Soi Fon's left hand went numb, and the surging recoil made her pause.
Nnoitra seized the opportunity with his left hand, grabbed her foot, pried it open, and slammed her down.
With a loud crash, the roof ridge broke, and the tiles shattered into powder, mixing with the rising dust.
"Pfft." Soi Fon spat out a mouthful of blood, and kicked Nnoitra's chest with his right foot. The force, enough to shatter rocks, caused no damage whatsoever.
Nnoitra ranks eighth in strength among the Espada, but in terms of the hardness of his Hierro, he is definitely number one.
No other Espada's Hierro is as hard as his.
"Hahaha." Nnoitra laughed wildly, twisting his waist and throwing Soi Fon away.
The air exploded, and where the Soi Fon struck, houses and trees were torn apart, like scraps of paper flying in a storm, and the ground was plowed with a deep trench that stretched for miles.
He bit his tongue, then Kog'Maw, and golden Reiatsu quickly condensed on the bleeding spot on his tongue.
boom!
The Gran Rey Cero, in both shape and power, is different from ordinary Cero; it is a high-level Cero that only the Espada can master.
It struck like a golden lightning bolt.
As soon as Soi Fon stopped, his vision was filled with a golden light. With no time to look away, he planted his feet firmly on the churned earth.
" Sōkotsu!" She used a high-level technique from Hakuda, created by Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, transforming her Reiatsu into a torrent that accumulated on the surface of her Riot Games before exploding.
boom!
Gran Rey Cero exploded, and the immense force shattered the sleeves of Soi Fon's arms and the Captain's Haori.
A strong tingling and numb sensation swept through her entire body, keeping her in the position of throwing out her fists. The impact tore apart buildings within miles, sending them fluttering down, with occasional glimpses of scarlet blood.
With a thud, Neutra turned and stepped forward, raising his weapon and slashing down.
Soi Fon Feng gritted his teeth and forced himself to move backward, but he was still a step too slow, and the crescent blade almost cleaved his body in two.
The numbness hit her before the pain, and she fell backward, blood gushing out incessantly. Then came a burning pain that shot through her brain, and sweat poured from her forehead. Her muffled groans were her last act of defiance.
"It's over." Nnoitra laughed, his lips stretched to their grotesque extremes, as he raised his weapon high.
Soi Fon's eyes were half-closed in pain, sweat dripped down his Matsuge, his vision became increasingly blurry, and he felt weak all over.
This time, he'll end up like his brothers.
She thought to herself that she should give up all hope of living and even let out the figure hidden deep in her heart.
Lady Yoruichi...
" Tesla?" Nnoitra paused, turning to look behind him. The familiar Reiatsu was gone. Impossible. Those people couldn't have killed Tesla.
His right eye widened as he looked back at the ground. There was no one there, only traces of blood.
"You're so light," Shiraishi muttered, gently placing Soi Fon under the tree. He chuckled, "I saved your life. I won't say I'll repay you with my body, but at least don't repay kindness with enmity."
"Mind your own business." Soi Fon was soft all over, but his mouth was very stubborn.
Shiraishi smiled, didn't continue the conversation, proactively released his Reiatsu, and then left with a Steel Tempest.
With Tesla dealt with, all that's left is Nnoitra.
