AN; Im back to full health! just needed some good night sleep and I'm fully healed! i feel even better than before! probably the effects of zenkai😁

Here's the chap!

-------------++++++++++------------

"Well, well, you sure do know how to enjoy life."

Alex raised an eyebrow as he sat up from Judecca's lap and looked behind him with a smile, "The fight ain't over yet, what are you doing here."

"Hmph! I'm fast enough to outrun lightning, I can go back there faster than you can even blink. But that's not the point, you really sure do like to lewd your sword."

Alex smiled and caressed Judecca's hair as said girl closed her eyes and enjoyed it. "Jude's not my sword, she's my partner. Its only natural we are this close, besides why are you getting mad anyway? Are you perhaps jealous...Emi?"

Alex just realized that he didn't deny "lewding" Judecca and quickly added those last words to divert Emi's attention.

Emi, now in her human form just stared at him, "....If I said I am...what will you do?"

Alex smiled and motioned her to come close. Emi raised an eyebrow but complied, she sat at the edge of the pillar, beside him.

Slowly, Alex guided her head to his lap. Emi did not resist as she just looked at the shockwaves of the fight of Gotei 13 and Hollows.

Alex softly caressed her hair, wondering why this Emi seems different from the one he knew in the series. After all, as far as he knew, Emi was a tsundere.

If Alex had read the novels, he would know that Emi, is in fact not a tsundere. She wasn't shy in showing her affection.

In the canon, hugging, sticking close to Maou, clinging, even giving chocolates during Valentine's day, and she did all of those even with other people present.

All those times she was acting like a tsundere was her just being conflicted of her own feelings.

"You know I'd kill you if given the chance right?" Emi spoke. Though she was merely saying that without any intent of doing so.

"Well...I just won't give you the chance then. So that you'll remain by my side for years to come."

Emi remained silent, her face turning as red as her hair.

Alex smiled before watching the pillar of flames where Aizen and two others were trapped at as he smirked.

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

Yoruichi grinned as she sat on top of a dead Arrancar. The Arrancar was large, looking like a mammoth, he has a high physical strength, but he could barely even reach the level of a lieutenant.

And Yoruichi easily killed him. Now, she was just observing the fight between her "little bee" and that sabertooth Arrancar.

They were moving in speed only a few can follow. Yoruichi was rather impressed that the Arrancar was able to keep up with Soi Fon.

"By the way...." The Sabertooth Arrancar spoke, "...I still haven't gotten your name. I'm a Fraccion of His Majesty Barragan, Ggio Verga."

"Soi Fon.." She introduced herself after giving her captain a glance, "...Lieutenant of 2nd Squad."

(AN; In wiki it says her name is Sui Feng, but I kinda got used to Soi Fon so I'll use that)

Ggio raised an eyebrow, "2nd squad huh? I heard that you guys are a special force. Expert in info gathering, espionage, infiltration, and....assassination."

Soi Fon frowned, but remained silent. Ggio grinned as he continued, "...honestly, you don't fight like one. You're soft hearted, there are times you could've finished me off but you're not taking it. You haven't even released your Spirit Weapon. I'm kinda curious though. Why don't you show it to me?"

Soi Fon observed him for a few moments before sighing. Her eyes then turned cold as she glared at Ggio.

"Sting all enemies to death. Suzumebachi!"

Grasping onto her spirit weapon with her right hand, the entire sword glows white and shrinks in size.

When the emitted glow dies out, it is revealed that Suzumebachi has now taken on the form of a black and gold gauntlet, with a small chain linking it to a stinger-like blade on Soi Fon's middle finger.

The "stinger" is about twice as long as the normal length of Soi Fon's fingers, slightly increasing her striking distance. The colors and pattern of the Shikai resemble those of a hornet.

Ggio grinned, "Come."

Only for his eyes to widened when Soi Fon disappeared and reappeared behind him, leaving only a butterfly-like mark on his right chest.

"...What?"

"Death in two strikes." Said Soi Fon, showing her right hand with Suzumebachi in it. "That, is the ability of my Suzumebachi."

"Huh?" Ggio turned his head to look at her, "The fuck are you talking about? You're saying you just needed two hits to kill me?"

"You'll see." Soi Fon grinned as she flashed towards the Arrancar.

Ggio clicked his tongue in annoyance, "Bite Off. Tigres Estoque!"

Upon calling out the release command, Ggio's appearance changes slightly.

He becomes more tiger-like, with a much less feminine appearance. He gains red stripes on his cheeks and forehead, and his Hollow mask becomes slightly elongated at the back, with the saber teeth being slightly more pronounced.

His feet become fur-covered and cat-like, and his knees and elbows are covered in a blond fur. 

He gains long, squared-off blades on each wrist, and his braid becomes very long and thick, hanging down to his knees, striped blond and black with a squared-off blade, similar to the ones on his wrist, hanging off the end.

What Surprised Soi Fon, however, is that the mark that was on his chest was now gone.

Ggio grinned as he engaged Soi Fon in close combat. Soi Fon narrowed her eyes but but swiftly countered him.

She was a bit surprised by the fact that this man was able to match her strength, granted Soi Fon wasn't really known for strength but rather in speed.

She was sure that in Gotei 13, her speed is second only to Yoruichi. She sent series of fast and precise strikes, which Ggio easily blocked and dodged without letting the "stinger" scrape him even once.

"Haha! This is kind of exciting! We both having an almost similar weapons."

"Shut up." Soi Fon increased her pace, startling the Ggio with her newfound speed.

With a kick, Soi Fon sent him a good tens of meters. With Soi Fon glaring at him, the Arrancar froze for a moment from the intense amount of killing intent radiating from her eyes.

Suddenly, the world seems to turn gray as everything slowed down in Soi Fon's view. She moved so fast that the world looks like it was in slow motion.

She appeared in front of Ggio and stabbed his right chest, before she appeared behind him and stabbed him in the right back.

Before vanishing and appearing a few meters from him.

The world returned to normal as Ggio stared at the butterfly-like mark on his right chest, before a second butterfly-like mark appeared behind him.

"...Wha..."

His body vanishes before he could finish his words, leaving behind a large butterfly-like mark.

What Soi Fon did was to pierce his right lung in the same place from his chest and his back. And since the power of her Spirit Weapon was to kill whoever was hit at the same place twice, Ggio will die for sure.

And he did.

Soi Fon took a deep breath as she relaxed.

"Good work Soi Fon!" Yoruichi appeared behind her and wrapped her arms around her, causing the girl to blush madly.

Yoruichi ignored this and stared at Barragan who was watching the fight since earlier. "But don't relax yet. The real fight has just begun."

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

"Death in two hit." Emi muttered, eating a strawberry cake that was given to her by Alex. "That's a terrifying ability."

"Indeed," Alex took a sip from his wine, "And it just fits that girl perfectly, with her speed and precision and all. How fast do you think she is?"

Emi thought for a bit before answering, "....I estimate it to be almost as fast as Lucifer. Though I'm pretty sure Lucifer will be even faster if he used both his demonic and celestial force."

Judecca, who was quietly munching on her sandwich, suddenly paused and looked at a certain direction. She felt a very familiar presence approaching.

"Master..."

Alex raised an eyebrow before he used Magic Sense to where Judecca was looking, and his mouth curled up in surprise. "Oh? Now this is interesting."

Emi noticed their expression and couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"

Alex shook his head with a smile, "Nothing. You'll know it later, just wait."

Emi's brow shot up in confusion but didn't ask any further. If Alex said that she'll know later, then she'll probably know it later.

It still doesn't suppress her curiosity though.

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

Rangiku was exhausted and injured. She might have overestimated her ability and underestimated her enemies. Or maybe, she just wanted to prove something....

She doesn't know. But she just knew that she have to do it! Or her heart won't be able to rest...

"Hey..." Apacci began, "Can I go over there and take a break?"

Sung-Sun looked at her, "Don't be ridiculous. We're in a middle of a fight."

"But this girl is impossible!" Apacci retorted, "Three against one is obviously too much for her! Look at how beaten up she is!"

Apacci sighed before looking at Rangiku, "Hey you. Why don't you go and get that kid over there? Three against two might be something interesting."

Rangiku used Haineko to attack, but Apacci just scoffed and appeared beside her.

"I said..." She lifted her leg and kicked Rangiku flying, "...Three against one is too much for you!"

Rangiku regained her balance as the ashes of Haineko appeared behind Apacci, who just sent a powerful punch with an air pressure strong enough to blow away the ashes.

Appaci then darted towards Rangiku, "You're not even a match for me alone!"

However, just as she was about to attack, someone appeared and stopped her by grabbing her neck.

"Grh?!" Appaci's eyes widened as she stared at the one who grabbed her neck.

"My~ My~ you already started the party without me? Now that's not good, you're going to break my heart you know. And I was even properly invited."

Rangiku's eyes widened, recognizing the person that appeared so suddenly.

"Y..You're.."

It was a young woman, with slightly reddish skin, with sharp black nails, a five inches horn on her forehead, and yellow eyes with black sclera, wearing a loose yellow long sleeved shirt, she wasn't wearing any pants, showing her dark red panties, which was partially hidden by her clothes.

"N-Nonko Yoinozaka."

Nonko, in her Oni form just gave a peace sign at Rangiku, "Hi~ Hi~ Though I'm no longer a Yoinozaka so I'd appreciate if you don't call me that."

She then turned serious with a grin on her face as she stared at the struggling Arrancar in her hands.

Without even any words, she let go of the Arrancar before slapping her away, sending her crashing into several buildings.

She grinned as she glared at the two other Arrancars.

"Now that I'm here, let's get this party started."
