Chapter 12: “ψ(｀∇´)ψ

A few hours laters....

From respective corners of the large fake city, the captains of the Gotei 13 began to flash towards one concentrated location.

The large dark abyss that had opened somewhere near the city's center was visible for miles and served as a clear indication that the battle was about to commence.

They gathered in front of the large portal, their eyes getting a full view as one familiar man slowly steps towards the exit of the portal.

Captain's Hitsugaya, Kuchiki, Yoruichi, Komamura, Kyoraku, Ukitake, and Yamamoto and several other lieutenants stood at the ready, prepared to do whatever was necessary to put an end to this conflict.

Alex was observing everything while standing on top of Tokyo Tower. Ashiya, and Lucifer already met with the captains and are already on their respective positions.

"So its about to start." Emi appeared behind Alex, she just reentered the Bounded Field after talking to Suzuno outside.

Apparently, the ex-Chief Inquisitor was worried that something might happen outside and she decided to stay there.

Emi used "Farsight" to observe the people that has just arrived, and she was surprised when the brown haired man actually turned to look at her.

She frowned, she can already feel that this man is dangerous. She might not necessarily win if she were to fight him.

"That's Aizen."

Emi heard Alex and hummed. Honestly, this might be the first time that she has met someone she wasn't confident on winning ever since she came to this world.

That Old Man Yamamoto, that Kenpachi guy, and that Unohana woman, Emi was confident that she can defeat them.

But this man though...she wasn't sure. He just looks like someone who is prepared for every unexpected situations and will be able to counter everything thrown at him.

It wasn't because of strength, no, if its just that then Emi was hundred percent sure she can fight this guy, but he just gave off a feeling that made Emi unsure if she can beat him.

Alex remained silent, just observing the battle.

-----------------------------

"Looks we are on time." Yamamoto stated, staring calmly at Aizen.

"On time?" Aizen smiled, "Where in the world did you have proof to say that? I know where we are now isn't the real city, but it isn't a threat to me at all. Harribel, Barragan, Stark. Come."

After he said those words, several portals were open as three people walked out of it, and they are also followed by several others. At the same time, two other people walked out from the portal behind Aizen.

Yamamoto wasted no time and immediately attack.

"Reduce all Creation to Ashes, Ryujin Jakka!" Yamamoto exclaimed, as his wooden staff was ripped apart to reveal a blade as torrent of flames surrounds him.

The Espada and other arrancar present stared at the flames in a slight amount of quiet amazement, even Alex who was watching from afar was surprised.

The fire seemed unrelenting and unstoppable as it surged around the old Hero, telling Aizen and the others that them winning won't be so easy because of him.

His title of Hero wasn't just for show.

'Predictable…' Aizen thought, holding back the urge to allow his content smirk onto his features.

The fire abruptly shot forwards at incredible speeds, stopping a good distance in front of Aizen and the others in his group before surging around in a circle and forming what seemed to be a prison of fire and flames.

When the ring of fire had completed, the remaining unrestricted arrancar looked at the blazing inferno confusedly, after which they turned their sights back to the captains.

"Jokaku Enjo." Yamamoto uttered as he sheathed his burning Spirit Weapon.

"This wall of flames will keep Sosuke at bay for quite some time. In the meantime, you are to show no mercy, end them at once!" Yamamoto ordered.

-------------------------

"Such a powerful flame." Emi stared at the flames in amazement. It is even hotter than her Heavenly Flame.

"So-so." Alex smirked, indeed he was surprised. He thought the power of his Spirit Weapon which is said to be able to produce flames as hot as the sun was just an exaggeration.

It turns out to be quite true. Still, for him, this heat is nothing but a candle he can easily blow off.

Emi rolled her eyes, "Don't get cocky."

Alex just smiled. He was only worried about Aizen, after all who knew what kind of plans does this man have. But still, he was confident on being able to kick his ass even if he perfectly fused with Hogyoku.

Alex already calculated how much power one can attain after fusing with it, and it couldn't even come close to a real Sephira, perhaps Aizen can beat the Niece of Landlady, a Half-Sephira, but he won't even come close on reaching the level of a real Sephira.

Though, Alex attention was captured by a blonde haired, and tanned skin female Arrancar wearing a rather revealing clothing.

'If I remember correctly she's the third Espada..hmm, she is someone who cared for her faction or something....in the end she was betrayed and killed though...I wonder...'

Shaking his head, he turned towards Emi, "Let's go, its time we go to our positions as well."

-------------------------------

An Arrancar with an appearance of a large old man just stared at the large pillar of fire with a calm look as he stated.

"Ah, what a dilemma. Our enemies are many, and the boss got himself trapped."

The female Arrancar with blonde hair and tanned skin just looked at the old man with a stern expression, "Speaking that way towards Aizen-sama is way out of line, Barragan."

The old man, Barragan just looked at her in contempt, "Speaking that way towards me is way out of line Harribel."

The woman, Harribel only remained silent.

Barragan snorted then spapped his fingers, as the Arrancars behind him pulled out a throne and placed it behind him.

Barragan sat down and glanced at every Arrancars and Espada present. "Now then. While the boss is trapped, I will be handing out orders, and I will not stand any complaints."

A lazy looking Arrancar shrugs, "Well, there's no problem with that. That'll be alri—Ow!?"

A young girl suddenly kicked the Arrancar on the back of his head. "Like hell its okay! Its not alright Stark! You're the Primera! You shouldn't be taking this lightly!"

"What the hell are you doing Lili—Ouch!? Stop that!"

A female Arrancar with curly black hair standing behind Harribel looked at them with an annoyed look, "damn they're annoying."

Barragan ignored them and merely looked at Yamamoto, "Boss said that the Jureichi here is fake? That you put a Bounded Field here to prevent us from reaching it? I heard from boss that you erected four pillars to create this bounded field. Then, all we have to do is to destroy it right?"

With a snap of his fingers, several Arrancars behind him nodded and disappeared with a portal.

"I know the locations of the four pillars. It is standard practice to construct something like that at the cardinal directions at the edges."

Barragan's look changed to one of contempt as he glanced at the captains and their lieutenants.

"If we destroy the pillars, then this bounded field will disappear as well. The real city will become the battlefield, and will be able to reach the Jureichi."

Jureichi, the point in Human World that possess the greatest concentration of Spiritual Power, the place changes every ten years, and it only happens that the Jureichi was here in Tokyo.

Aizen's goal was exactly to destroy that. And his Espadas will surely see it destroyed, one way or another.

Yamamoto just stared at Barragan calmly before he muttered, "You damn fool."

Barragan's eyes widened as he sensed his minions suddenly dying. Stark was also surprised, while Harribel just calmly looked at their direction.

Yamamoto glared at them, "Don't treat me like a fool. Did you think that I would not have deployed anyone at such important locations?"

A smile appeared on his face for an instant as he held his staff, "Some capable people has been properly put in place."

At the same, at the pillar in the east. Ashiya in his demon form wearing his general attire which consists of a dark jacket with silver around the seams, the bottom partially opened to reveal his waist.

He wears black pants with an opening for his tail, and a pair of knee-length boots.

Alciel also wears a cape of a dingy green color that is typically worn draped over his shoulders, fastened in the front by a cord, and supported by a pair of simple shoulder pads.

He was holding the severed head of an Arrancar with a stoic look. With a snort, he crushed the head as it dissipates.

"Milord has ordered me to guard this pillar and not allow anyone near it. Pests like you all should be glad I have made your death quick."

At the same time, at the pillar on the West. Lucifer can be seen lazily staring at the decapitated corpse in front of him as it was slowly dissipates.

He is wearing his usual casual, white, short sleeved top with light purple sleeves along with black trousers that are rolled up at the bottom, along with a pair of blue and white converses.

"Dude, at least give me some entertainment. Fighting slimes are more interesting than this you know?" He shook his head and looked at the sky.

"Damn, what a boring day. I really should've just stayed in the Inn...no, I can't disobey Satan, what if he decided to no longer bother with me? I will have no one to leech off....I guess I'll bear with this for the time being."

At the same time, at the pillar on the South. Emilia in her Angel form just stabbed the head of an Arrancar with her sword, staring at its dissipating corpse coldly.

She was wearing a decorative silver armor with a golden trim that covers her torso, shoulders, and backside.

There is a tiny opening right below her collar, below which is a golden crest situated above her breastplate, the bottom half of the armor opening in the front to show her waist, revealing a ruffled black skirt with white frills and leggings.

Her knees and lower legs are clad in metallic boots with a similar look to her body armor, with matching arm-guards protecting her lower arms and elbows.

"Even though I no longer like to call myself it, I'm still once a Hero. You people who wanted to destroy this peaceful place where my family and I live, I will show no mercy."

At the same time, at the pillar on the north. Alex was laying his head on Judecca's lap as he watched the battle in amusement. With Judecca softly caressing his hair with a soft smile.

He was wearing a plain white shirt, a black jeans and black and white sneakers. While Juddeca was wearing white short one piece dress that exposes her shoulders, back, and hips, opera gloves and thigh boots with neapolitan cuffs.

The Arrancar did not even managed to appear in the pillar as it died before it even knew how.

He was watching the Gotei 13 and the Arrancars with amusement.

"Don't worry old man, these pillars are completely safe. You go and stretch your old bones and have a blast. Leave this place to us."
