42 Chapter 52: Enemy of My Enemy

Screeching echoed throughout the town. Piercing everyone's ears, as it on. Fading the creature beside him, roared spewing black liquid. As the liquid fell, it began form into tall figures. As they did the giant blew away Yamamoto's flames out, releasing Aizen and his associates.

"Now we move" Aizen spoke emotionless

Toshiro distracted, but was shocked as the frozen prison behind him cracked. Turning in shock as it finally shattered. Harrible free spotted the hollow, recognizing him.

"Wonderweiss"

Toshiro raised his blade steady, prepared for a fight. Still exhausted from his last encountered with her. The hollow flashed away, Captain Utitake didn't expect such. As his chest was pierced by his hand. The Captain fell to the street below, Captain Shunsui attempting to kill, was then struck down by Starrk.

Yamamoto caught sight of the scene, distracted Barragan moved. Slashing down his axe, Captain-Commander caught before it landed. Barragan began a series of slashes, as the Captain-Commander countered each.

Turning I saw Vice-Captain Kira healing those that had fought. The massive amount of spirit energy would certainly slow the process. Flashing to their position Kira seemed confused to see me.

"Captain Hatake? What're you doing?" Asking

"I'm here to make sure the battle doesn't kill them" answering

Barragan v. Yamamoto

Both stood apart, the spiritual energy becoming heavier. Barragan charged slamming his axe into Yamamoto's Zanpakuto. The soul reaper parried the strike, but was struck by an unseen punch. CausingCaptain-Commander flew threw oncoming buildings, Barragan flashed axe in air. Flashing Yamamoto escaped his attack, appearing behind the king, slashing as it was blocked by the handle.

"Strong after all these years?" Barragan spoke struggling against his might

"You've just lacked a proper opponent" Yamamoto growled

Seeing his chance Barragan disarmed the Soul Reaper, but at the cost of disarming himself also. Not accepting another blindside attack, Yamamoto threw a fist into Barragan's chest. Crashing into a wall, collapsing the entire first floor. Appearing at the scene below him, the smoke still present. Without warning Barragan gripped his ankle, throwing through the ceiling of a building. attempting to rise, Barragan pointed his hand.

"Cero"

A purple orb formed and shot down, destroying the entire block. Smoke covered again, Yamamoto shot out the debris. Landed a powerful right hook, blood came out spat out, regrouping Barragan retaliated with his own hook. The shock from each hit broke glass in the surrounding buildings. The two clashed once again, repelling each other.

Kakashi POV

Standing guard the Minos Grande had formed, marching their way towards me. My hand rested on the hilt of my Zanpakuto. Before they could reach myself and the others. A blast hit the herd, destroying them. In the distant a small group of familiar faces were seen. A young man twirling a brown hat smiled.

"Shinji Hirako"

As well as the others that had vanished all those years ago. His smile wide, but his eyes carried the slightest hint of hate. Disappearing in a moment, most likely to see Captain-Commander.

"Who was that?"

"An old friend"

Battlefield

Captain-Commander Yamamoto stood bruised and scared, as did the God-King Barragan his robes in tatters. The two breathing heavily, their fists ready to continue the fight. Yamamoto felt a familiar spiritual presence, turning to see Shinji Hirako.

"Captain-Commander, haven't seen you in this conditionbefore" chuckling with his wide smile

"Shinji Hirako,so Kakashi Hatake didn't finish you off?"

Sitting in silence as the former Captain twirled his hat.

"Can we count on you to be allies"

His smile disappeared as he turned his back.

"No, we're allies of Ichigo Kurosaki" answering then flashing away

Seeing him disappear, a low chuckle from Barragan was heard.

"What's so amusing?"

"Your so called 'army' doesn't seem all that solid"

Yamamoto flashed landing a strike, but wasblocked by Barragan.

The Vizards stood at the front of Minos Grande to slow them down, only to give the Soul Reapers time to recover. All put their masks on, then assaulted the Minos.

Yamamoto fell to the street landing on one knee, seeing his Zanpakuto by his side. Down the block stood Barragan's axe. Taking it in hand as did Barragan holding it tightly, placing it upside down.

"Arrogante"

A shock of powerful purple energy shot out from the axe, covering the area they shared. Yamamoto unfazed by stood his ground, as it showed Barragan's true form. a skeleton wearing a crown and cloak armed with a ebony bladed axe. Holding his Zanpakuto tight a matching energy surged.

"Ryujin Jaka"

A wave of flames shot from the blade covering as just a wide of area. The purple energy clashed with the bright red.

"Respira"

Black mist moved towards Yamamoto, but soon countered it with his Ruyjin Jaka's flames. Neither the flames or mist died out, Captain-Commander flashed Barragan stood quietly. appearing beside him, Ryujin Jaka clashed with Arrogante, the ashes of flame met the mist of decay.

"Taimatsu"

The wave of flame pushed the hollow back destroying blocks of those around them. They continued to burn until Barragan was ash, focused on the burning inferno.A break in the fire was seen, Yamamoto spotted then moved into the air. Beams of decay shot out soon repelling the flames. Glancing up to the Captain-Commander raising his blade.

"Respira"

Swinging his axe the purple mist flew towards Yamamoto. Captain-Commander swung his blade letting loose his flames. Clashing once more as the powers destroying the buildings around them.

"You are a durable ant"

"Barragan, it has seemed your power has increased since we last fought" he commented

"It's shame after your death, no one will give me as much amusement than you"

Flashing behind Yamamoto attempting to surprise him with an attack. Reacting he blocked then retaliated, but was thwarted by the enormous axe. The mist and flame risen out of their masters. As they clashed, but neither yielding for the other.

Kakashi POV

I stood watching my Captain-Commander battle the Hollow King. Spiritual pressure so strong I could feel it from where I was. Kira began sweating more, as he can feel the power.

"You sure we're safe?"

"Most likely"

Sound of footsteps were heard, turning to see a small child. Hiyori, she stood anger deep in her eyes.

AN: Captain-Commander Yamamoto and Barragan should've fought. I'm just saying it would've been an awesome fight.
