In consideration of Kazuna's true intentions, it seems that Adolf was not fully aware of them. As before, Kazuna had no interest in seizing the spot from Adolf. No, that would be a waste of his effort. Moving across the rankings one at a time would prove to take too long. He needed to take a spot soon. One that would put himself above a few Espada so he could prove his worth to Kouhai. In the end, he wanted what was best for the Espada. The strong on top, the weak at the bottom.
The funny thing was that despite Adolf's empathy, why couldn't he tell that the Noveno Espada was being insincere. His compliment was both smug remarks as well as a commending comment. The thing was that Adolf had shown his hand to Kazuna, meanwhile, the two knew nothing of each other's releases. It provided an interesting dynamic in which if one struck first, the other would be subject to the mystery of what they had to face.
Thankfully, the time for infighting was not now. Kazuna noted the secret entrance hidden under the tile as Adolf had made note of it. It was a long descending hole. Taking a nearby rock, Kazuna dropped it, listening for a sound. As the rock fell, it accelerated and collided with earthen face and stone after about six seconds. The drop was not anything extreme, but a normal human would not handle it. Thankfully neither one of them was merely human.
Kazuna looked at Adolf as he slowly moved his feet over the ledge. "The area ahead will most likely be hostile. They do not know us so we have the element of surprise. It is just a matter of finding our target and eliminating him. The rest must go as well per Kouhai's vague request to stop a rebellion. If you see something that isn't an Espada...cut it down." In a sense, it was an order. To kill anything in sight. Such was the way of an Espada.
As Kazuna smirked and dropped down, he hit the ground quickly and rolled to break his fall. Waiting for Adolf he looked ahead. The underground base appeared to be a maze of tunnels. Dug out by Hollows of some sort. Kazuna began to take a slight stride forward before seeing a group of Arrancar. They seemed to be conversing amongst each other, something that raised Kazuna's interest. He quickly hid in one of the many crevices that the caves formed.
He continued to wait for Adolf as he began to think. They could go about this two ways. There was the guns blazing way, opting to force their way through, but it would alarm many hostiles around here. Then of course was the slow methodical route. Going stealthy, but Kazuna's prior comment answered the question already. A quick Sonido later and Kazuna was between the three Arrancar. A nasty scythe swipe and their bodies were severed, hitting the ground with a thud. Kazuna would look at Adolf who was hopefully now closer to the Noveno Espada.
