I rushed out to my sister’s side.

Expanding my senses, I managed to feel her spiritual pressure besides that of Ichigo Kurosaki and Sado Yasutora. Ahead of them, I could sense the presences of Yammy and Ulquiorra while Urahara, Tessai and Yuroichi were a few paces in front of them.

Increasing my Sonido, I dashed in her direction, leaving chaos in my wake as the sonic boom shattered windows and crystals, which created a chain of screaming civilians.

I arrived just as Yammy was relentlessly hammering my sister's shield.

She stood before him, her posture defiant and unwavering, Ichigo and Sado lay motionless on the floor, their bodies battered and bloodied. Their condition was testament to how green they were to be in a true battlefield.

I clenched my fists, feeling a mixture of annoyance at the handling of my sister and Sado, though grateful for Ichigo’s beating.

In that moment, a crimson haze tinted my vision as I propelled myself toward Yammy's side.

With a strong palm strike in his stomach, I sent Yammy crashing into Ulquiorra. They both skidded to a stop with their heels just in front of the hidden Urahara.

“What the hell are you doing?” Yammy cursed, pointing his intact hands at both me and Urahara who he had just noticed.

Ulquiorra regarded me with annoyance seeping through his stoic expression. “You better provide an explanation, Acidwire.”

“This was not part of the plan.” I responded with a heavy tone. “You were supposed to assess Kurosaki’s threat level.”

I gathered my immense spiritual pressure, making the ground shake and nearby trees to sway, including the tree where an unconscious Tatsuki was.

The high school girl fell to the ground unharmed, the shaking only covering her with leaves. It seemed I had to be careful to not kill her, otherwise Orihime would blame me.

“What's even worse is that you had the audacity to lay hands on my Orihime.” I growled, barely maintaining my self-control.

However, before I could give them a good beating, the sound of swift movement caught our attention. In a split second, Yammy found himself abruptly slammed headfirst into the ground by the beautiful Yoruichi.

“What the..” He barely reacted, completely bewildered by the sudden attack.

Enraged, Yammy pushed himself up with his trembling arms, ready to retaliate.

“I’ll tend to Orihime and the others.” Yoruichi told Urahara, swiftly taking a bag of medicine from him.

“Where do you think you're going?”

Yammy's furious roar echoed through the air as he lunged forward, extending his arm to grab Yoruichi before she could make her move.

To Yammy's incredulous eyes, Yoruichi executed her Shunpo technique with incredible speed, effortlessly slapping away his outstretched hand. In a fluid motion, she twisted her body and delivered a powerful kick to his cheek, causing blood to spray from his nose and mouth.

Then, with a graceful leap into the air, she unleashed a devastating punched a stunned Yammy in the back of the head,creating a massive explosion of force that left a deep crater in the ground that dwarfed the surrounding trees.

Ulquiorra watched impassively while Yoruichi walked away from Yammy and approached my side.

Yoruichi's confident smirk and demeanor as she approached me was both slightly arousing and strongly irritating.

“I’m tired of this.” I declared, cracking my neck to alleviate some tension.

Yourichi raised an eyebrow at me. “Then, you should step away unless you want to end like your friend.”

“That won’t be necessary.” I calmly replied, appearing by her side with the use of Sonido.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she tried to reach me, but her hand grasped nothing but empty air as I used Sonido to appear beside Orihime again.

“How…?” She tried to ask, stupefied by my speed.

“Let me help you sister.” I ignored the purple haired shinigami, and turned my attention to Orihime with a small smile.

Raising my arm, I struck her shield with a firm palm strike, causing it to shatter with a sound akin to breaking glass, a sound I hated. The sight of Orihime's despair only added to my discomfort.

Still, I ignored her look of distress and brought the medicine to her side. “Here, you can use it, your friends' injuries are not serious.”

“Thank you.” Orihime replied, her hands trembling slightly under the weight of my inhuman spiritual pressure. “I will treat them right away.”

Yet, the fight behind me continued on, the clash of powerful spiritual pressures filling the air.

“I'm going to pummel you into oblivion!” A furious Yammy bellowed as he rose to his feet behind Yoruichi.

Yuroichi, still wary of me, turned to face him, her eyes locked on the approaching threat.

“Do you ever give up?” She wondered aloud, her voice laced with a hint of annoyance.

Ignoring her words, the enraged Espada screamed. “You are dead.”

Then, he began charging a Cero in his mouth, the light produced by it hiding his dark face.

With a mighty roar, he unleashed the powerful blast, engulfing the surrounding area and hitting the place where Yuroichi was supposed to be.

As dust swirled around the area, Yammy chuckled triumphantly. “She must be smeared across the ground now. There's no way she could have dodged that.”

I sighed at his stupidity. While a normal Adjuchas hit by his Cero at point-blank range would be dead, we were now fighting on a different level, surpassing the standards of Hueco Mundo.

True to my expectations, he was astonished when the dust cleared to reveal Urahara standing on the other side of a deep rift in the ground. He had protected Yoruichi with his sword, Benihime, and was now leveling it at Yammy.

“It can’t be. How did you stop my attack?” Yammy demanded, his face twisted with anger.

Urahara, with his hat shadowing his eyes, calmly explained. “I simply neutralized the Cero with an attack of similar power. Directly deflecting it would have been too risky.”

“Bullshit.” Yammy scoffed in disbelief.

“If you don't believe me, I can demonstrate it again.” The blond shopkeeper said before raising his sword. “Nake, Benihime.”

A strong, concussive, and destructive crimson-colored energy blast was fired from his sword as he swung it. As the energy flowed out of the blade, it fired in the arc of the sword's swing.

Fortunately, I didn’t have to act as before the vertical energy blast could reach a shocked Yammy, Ulquiorra swiftly moved himself in front of him and effortlessly slashed through the blast with his bare right hand.

Aonte Time for a classic bleach fight.

Omake: Little trouble (2)

Harribel carried a laughing Esmeralda on her shoulders, feeling the chaos and joy that came with looking after children

Meanwhile, Noelle sat crouched down, intently doodling a picture of her father hugging her and Esmeralda while a crying Nel and Harribel watched on.

Harribel was stunned to see such a drawing, but she had to admit how good it was.

With a creaking sound, the door of the room opened, revealing a smiling Cyan Sung-sun.

“Sorry, for the trouble Lady Harribel.” Sung-sun said apologetically. “I had promised Appacci and Mila Rose that I would train with them and Cirucci was busy with a job for Acidwire.”

Little Esmeralda hopped down from Harribel's shoulders and ran to hug her mother.

“It was not a problem. The little ones are easier to control than you girls.” Harribel replied, her voice calm.

“I see.” Sung-sun replied, not being able to hide the tick of annoyance on her face from her leader's comment.
