36 Ulquiorra Intervenes

The small Arrancar stood at 5 feet even, her Bankai was a large grim reaper Scythe, at the bottom end was a chain, at the end of the chain was a one-handed Combat Sickle. The Scythe itself was around 7 Feet long with the added chain it looked extremely cumbersome in Izanami's small hands. However…

The Scythe was sent flying at the Big Baby Bankai, slicing through its forehead, "Wahaawwwwaa" an unidentifiable noise came out of its mouth, "Shūkaku(Harvest)" Izanami phased from her position and appeared on the head of Konjiki Ashisogi Jizō.

"This is the issue with having a Bankai that takes the form of a living being, it is just a hindrance, a weakness," Looking at the captains in their eyes the small bundle of death smiled. Her smile made the moon dim in comparison, "Reap"

The wound shined Red, then the Spiritual Energy of the Bankai was being drawn into Izanami. Her eyes shone a brighter Scarlet as she looked at the Captain of Squad 12. Her power started to grow at a noticeable rate, "Cancel your Bankai! Now She's growing stronger!"

Unohana noticed immediately, commendable but it wasn't enough. "Blossom." The quartz floor below became covered in Black-Scarlet Chrysanthemums right before the captain's eyes. "HAHAHAHAHAHA" Frenzied Izanami let out an eerie laugh as her smile grew wider.

"It Seems the Captains of the 13 Court guard Squads aren't enough! Bur-" A Slender Pale hand landed on her shoulder, "That is enough Izanami."

Looking up at the New arrival, Izanami's face became annoyed, "Ulquiorra…I'm just disposing of the trash that has invaded Lady Layla's domain. Are you channeling your inner Kaname? You fucking boy scout."

Ulquiorra's face remained unchanged as he removed his hand from her shoulder, "Our orders were to keep them alive," His head then turned to the armless captain embedded into the wall of Espada 8's Palace, and the legless Soul Reaper that was petrified. "While these three are still able to fight it shouldn't be an issue for the other Espada, I forgot how kill-hungry you are, I told Grimmjow to watch over you but this form seems to be too much for him."

Using sonido the Blue Haired Espada arrived in a fit of rage, " Ulquiorra, did you see that? Do you feel the power coming off these damn flowers? She was gonna wipe this part of Las Noches off the map."

"Which is exactly why I stopped her, I had no idea her Bankai would be this powerful. It seems that it is inappropriate to allow Privaron Espada number -4 to take on the Izanami no Mikoto from within the walls of Las Noches, along with the use of the powerful Gran Ray Cero which has been forbidden for some time it seems that I will need to pass this on to Lady Layla for judgment later." At the Mention of Layla, Izanami went pale as she ended her Bankai, "Please Ulquiorra don't tell her! When Jupiter took control that one time I thought I was gonna die!"

"Her word is final so it must happen," Ulquiorra ignored the pleading of the Arrancar then turned to the Captains. "Sorry to interrupt your battle but it would be inappropriate for us to continue fighting in this location."

Walking over to Rukia he placed his hand on her chest, at a visible pace her legs were healed and her petrification was undone. "While we are enemies things can be done in a more civilized manner." He then undid the petrification of the others, when Ichigo saw the Espada in front of him he swung his sword only for it to be stopped by an Index finger.

"No need for violence right now, I am not the one you will be fighting." Ulquiorra then turned his back on them to face the captains, "There is a central area of Las Noches that would be far more suitable for a battle of this level, as I'm sure you all know it is impossible for the four of you along with these 5 to complete destroy Las Noches and kill all of us Espada." The Captains were silent but inwardly they had to agree, the power this Privaron Espada displayed was far beyond their expectations now before them stood Espada number 5 and an Unidentified Espada but they could tell that he outranked number 5.

'We were sent to assist the foolish substitute Soul Reaper along with the Squad members that went along with them but it seems we have poked a hornets' nest.' Looking around they saw members of Palace 4 that pried Kenpachi out of the wall then healed his wounds, other Arrancar then started to repair the damage done by their brief battle.

'This is a legitimate Army, while the ones doing the mundane tasks like repairing the floor, healing wounds etc aren't that powerful." The Captain's eyes then turned to the Three Arrancar before them, 'With powerful superiors like this, there is no need for them all to be extremely powerful.'

"Now this is actually a very odd situation but I don't want more damage to come to Las Noches," Ulquiorra then turned and walked in a direction while Grimmjow and Izanami followed. The Captains looked at the backs of the three Arrancar then looked at the former battleground that was almost back to normal.

"Well, we don't seem to have much of a choice here, that Pale-faced one seemed to have Absolute power over the other two, despite their reluctance. Plus I am interested to see more of what Las Noches has to offer, the Espada seem to be far more than we expected."
