Chains of Hell and Quadruple Giga apprehended

[1 day later]

When Luka beaten the monster that attacked them, they prepared themselves and the quartet left for Remina, and when they reached it, they found only ruins of the town.

Luka: There was a mass slaughter here 30 years ago…

Alice: Not just the slaughter, but the city itself was destroyed.

Solo: You don't say? This place if even worse than Las Noches before Aizen came...

Alice sighed and the four walked in.

Minagi: I wonder who did this… It may be the Angels…

Luka: It's impossible! Why would they?

Even if Luka was not accepting that as an answer, Solo and Alice's eyes narrowed.

Some time later, Luka found a long bone in the ground which came from the body of a Lamia.

Luka: Look, Alice… That bone… That confirms it, monsters were killed here as well. Just what in th-*Boom*

He was interrupted from a big noise behind him, Alice, Minagi and Luka turned around to find Solo who just shot a cero to a monster that almost assaulted him.

Solo: Guys, run... This place is full of them!

Minagi, Alice and Luka nodded before they ran while Solo was surrounded from them, he smirked and unsheathed his zanpakuto.

Solo: Each one of them is as strong as a normal Arrancar… This is interesting…

Then Solo disappeared with a Sonido and started the massacre.

Meanwhile, Luka, Alice and Minagi were running away, Minagi would take down the Chimeras that would follow them and group back with the other 2.

Luka: Are we sure we should leave Solo like that?

Alice: He is easily the strongest of everyone here, he can be 10 times stronger, and can regenerate an arm from nothing, and you are worrying about him? Have faith at him for a bit…

Luka nodded and remembered their conversation at Sentora Solo and he had.

Luka: 'Why… It's for the coexistence between Monsters and Humans? But I can do it even with other methods… Why am I going to the Monster Lord's Castle? Even if Illias said it… I can't kill Alice…'

*BOOOM*

His thoughts were interrupted when a series of explosions were created, and Solo appeared beside them with a Sonido, completely covered in blood.

Solo: I finished there, you guys found anything?

Luka: You are covered in blood!

Solo: Meh… I can clean it…

Minagi: We didn't found anything.

Solo: Mn, then… Should we stay here a bit longer?

Luka: N-No, I don't think so… Let's go to the Sealed Sinner's Prison now.

Solo, Alice, and Minagi nodded before they walked with Luka towards the Sealed Sinner's Prison.

[2 days later]

They met some monsters, which were defeated from Luka, right now he could match the 8th Espada in Resurreccion while if he used all of his spirits, he could go against the 5th Espada, if he as if he is now would fight the Granberia they fought at Illiasburg, then he would surely win.

And now they were at destination.

Luka: This is the Sealed Sinner's Prison…?

Suddenly, in Luka's Mind, Sylph talked.

Sylph: Eh? Eh? I smell my former master here…

Luka: 'Former Master…?'

Sylph: Ehehe, this is so nostalgic!

Luka: Only horrible criminals were sealed here, right?

Alice: Yes… Though their bodies rotted away, their souls are stuck here. Unable to talk or communicate with the living world, nor able to turn toward the world of the dead.

Luka: I… I wonder what that huge criminal's name was…?

Then Luka got near the monument to read the name of the sinner, and was surprised.

Luka: ...Heinrich Hein!?

Solo: Who?

Solo walked near, but the moment he stepped forward, he felt a strong pressure at the center of the Sealed Sinner's Prison, which had a crimson glow, and rusty chains came out from it.

Luka, Alice, Minagi and Solo were surprised for a moment until the chains shot forwards towards Solo, who panicked and used Sonido to dodge.

[Meanwhile]

At Heaven, Illias had a eerie grin while she was watching them from there.

Illias: He finally activated my trap… If even this doesn't work… Then only 'That' remains…

[Back]

It seems that the rusty chains wanted to trap only Solo, they ignored the other 3, Solo continued to jump around, dodging the chains, until one catched his arm, immobilizing him, and the other 3 chains came at both his arms, greatly limiting his movements.

Luka/Alice/Minagi: SOLO!!

Solo was slowly being dragged to the center of the place, where the chains came, and he tried to resist as much as he could, he gritted his teeth, anchored on the ground, and pulled back with all of his might, the process slowed down a bit, but it was still going forward.

Solo: MINAGI, ALICE, CUT OFF MY ARMS!!!

Minagi, Alice and Luka gasped, they looked at each other, hesitating a bit, before Minagi and Alice nodded, so Alice grabbed Angel Halo while Minagi took Solo's zanpakuto, and got at both of Solo's sides.

Both Alice and Minagi took a deep breath before they raised the weapons, and Solo negated his hierro for Alice to be able to cut, even if her level is around the Primera, her physical prowess was at the 7th Espada's level, but she should be able to hurt Solo if he didn't resisted.

Then they brought the weapons down, cutting both of Solo's arms, and taking them in the Sealed Sinner's Prison, at the Heaven, Illias gritted her teeth from rage because she didn't knew Solo would be this desperate and she didn't knew yet about his regenerative powers.

Luka gasped at it, even if he knew about his regeneration, seeing a friend with both of his arms missing would make him really worried anyways, then he rushed at Solo, while his arms were bleeding really much.

Luka: Are you ok!?

Solo: Yeah… I never felt the sensations of having both arms cut off… And it isn't a good one…

Then the Hogyoku glowed once again and both of his arms reappeared, then Solo took deep breaths and moved them a bit, to test if they are ok, which were, then he turned towards the others and said.

Solo: Better leaving this place, we don't know what could happen now…

Alice gave back Angel Halo to Luka, and Minagi gave back Crisalida to Solo, then the three nodded at Solo's words and left the Sealed Sinner's Prison, and finally walked towards their end, the Monster Lord's Castle.

Luka: 'But why… Why am I going there? There is nothing that comes in my mind… Absolutely nothing…'

[Night]

They made their final camp, and Alice spoke to Luka.

Alice: Luka, I will train you to a new technique now…

Luka: Ah, I guess that's right.

Alice: So, I will teach you the strongest technique, which is a technique that uses all four spirits at once.

Luka, Solo and Minagi were surprised from her words, while she talked again.

Alice: Just do what I say for now. First, point your sword toward the sky and summon the power of wind into your blade.

Solo and Minagi watched, while Luka did as she said.

Alice: Next… Put the power of the earth into your blade at the same time. Of course, without letting the power of wind dissipate.

Luka: Got it… Gnome!

Then he used her power in Angel Halo, Solo's eyebrow was raised due to the power that Luka was slowly gaining.

Alice: Next is water. Like the Earth and Wind, mix them together in your sword.

Luka: U...Undine!

He used her powers too, and the sword was flashing, Minagi felt a bit danger from that technique, while Alice was talking.

Alice: ...Next, the power of fire. Concentrate all four elements in your sword.

Luka was surprised, it was really hard keeping control on the technique and he need to add another element.

Luka: S...Salamander…

Then he used Salamander too and fused it with the others elements in Angel Halo, Solo's eyes widened from the intensity of such attack made from someone weak like Luka.

Alice: Now slash with your sword.

Then Luka brought down his sword, and the crazy power inside it slammed in the ground, and the results was devastating, the sword created an enormous fissure in the ground, and released a power that was stronger than Solo's normal Cero. Surprising both him and Minagi.

Luka, Minagi and Solo were stunned from the intensity of the attack while Alice clicked her tongue.

Alice: This destructive force… That wasn't as powerful as I was hoping for. The earlier power of your attributes was overwritten by the later ones… As far as I can see, wind was a five, earth was a seven, water was a nine, and fire was a ten.

...With poor balance like that, it won't go so well.

Luka: Oi, oi… I think it went pretty well myself…

Alice: The power of this skill is amplified by each spirit imbued in it. But if all four were at a power of ten, it wouldn't be ten times four for forty… It would be ten to the fourth power for 10'000… This is the ultimate skill, Quadruple Giga.

Solo: 'If that was just incomplete then if the technique was perfect it would even fucking kill me at my 100% as I am now!! I should use Resurreccion if I want to block it…'

Alice: This skill takes a while to pull off, you will need some time to put all the spirits in the sword, if you get hit in the meantime… Your concentration will fail… and so will the skill.

One more issue… When you start the skill, any spirit you have summoned will vanish, so you need to summon them once again.

Luka: So you mean I'd have to make the enemy stop attacking me for all that time somehow…?

Alice: Yes, that's right.

Solo was really impressed from such technique, if he could have all 4 the spirits and use it he would be sure that he would easily kill both Aizen and the Captain-Commander at the same time even if he would not use Resurreccion.
