Flashback Mission: Canon 4 [Complete]

[Hara Lucious]

Dimitri was surprised to be attacked, And to have teeth sunk into his throat. He reached back grabbing whatever it was, Flipping it over his shoulders onto the ground. His blade came from its sheath, Spinning it around slamming it into the things chest, Puncturing its hear. He turned waiting for probably more to come at him, He held his Katana into a Defensive position. He was unable to see that well in the dark however. He was weary of his surroundings, He heigtened his own senses concentrating on whatever was around him, Not that he knew of anything in the shadows around. Closing his eyes he used his eyes, Listening to what was around him.

[Zou ۞]

The vampire, in one swift motion, drew it's teeth across Dimitri's arm as he threw it over, slashing deeply into Dimitri with the fangs, drawing blood. The vampire hit the ground, and then quickly bit onto Dimitri's leg, ripping at it and ravaging it right before the blade hit. Instantly, it burst into flames, which consumed Dimitri's leg. At the same time, three others prepared to pounce him. It was a dire situation.

OOC: Sorry for the short post. My inspiration is extremely low right now. My mind is tired.

[Faust Zsalamel]

The runic symbols embedded around Faust's body and mask started to light up violently. They glowed with utmost intensity, causing the space around him to ripple violently as well. He calmly tried to stabilize himself as he saw Jandro preparing for an attack. This was the first time he was ever going to use this move, one that could prove fatal if he didn't put his heart onto it.

A good strategist huh? I don't think so. He may have known how I will move, but it is impossible for him to anticipate my next ability. Never have I used this before, that not even my fellow Espada has witnessed it. My instincts tell me that I can only fire one more Cero Espacio at him. This should be enough. No human, whatever their rank, can best an Espada such as myself on equal footing. This guy simply was lucky enough that Aijou took a one up on me. Faust thought, his body and eyes glowing rather brightly.

As Jandro released a torrent of his own attack, Faust opened up his eyes wider, its glow becoming extremely bright that its as if the entire area was basked in an early morning sun. The yin-yang symbol on the chest of Faust spun wildly, the boundary between the yin and the yang becoming a complete blur. Faust stretched a palm towards Jandro's direction, the space around him rippling so violently that from the outside, its as if he was blurring out of existence.

"Hierro Espacio" Faust muttered, as the attack came into range.

Almost immediately, the space in front of him condensed, becoming a hazy white color, radiating brightly. It received the attack at an angle, becoming like a mirror as Faust angled it so that his Hierro Espacio acts like a tank's armor, which is inclined instead of straight, allowing him to efficiently absorb the attack, and successfully deflect it away from him instead of completely absorbing the attack. He also position himself in such a way that if there would be a follow up attack, his Hierro Espacio would take it at an angle that he can deflect it easily, lessening structural damage, if not preventing the succeeding attack from coming through.

As he positioned himself, he also watched what the next attack of Jandro would be, aiming a well hidden Cero from within the blurry atmosphere around him, making it impossible for anyone but an Espada of higher status than him to detect what's he doing. He would unleash his ace in the hole Cero Espacio the moment Jandro's defense were down.

Within his mind, his entire thought process were going wild. He has already thought of several possibilities as to what can happen next, planning ahead of time for any succeeding attack or ploys that would be following the initial attack, and has arrived at the conclusion that Jandro has some sort of delay whenever he attacks, which would allow him to successfully land his fastest Cero in his current form during that small window of opportunity.

This should end it once and for all. I have no more reiatsu to spare. If I have to die, I will not die without a fight, and your head is mine, human. Faust thought to himself, waiting for what ever the human was about to do next, preparing himself.

[Zou ۞]

Jandro cocked his head to one side. "Is this your signature ability, Espada?" he asked. "You have no idea how much more powerful I can become...Nina..." Instantly, molten flames and liquid metal formed some kind of armor on Jandro's torso, followed by his left leg becoming coated in the liquid metal as his right became coated in the molten lava. On his head, a helmet made up of half of each materialized, with glowing red eyes, and his hands became clawed as he moved onto all fours, three tails erupting out of his back side. The first tail was liquid metal, on the left side, the second, in the center, was half half, while the third, on the right, was made completely of lava. The tails whipped about as Jandro roared. In an instant, he burst forwards, gone from place. He moved fast! It was almost as if he had used Sonido.

He materialized in front of Faust's field of distorted space, almost as if the speed was just for show. He opened his wide mouth as a white coating bone-like substance formed over the two already existing substances, generating a hollow-like appearance. A small orb of lava surrounded by reiatsu charged, and fired off at about the same speed as a Cero. It was massive however, larger than the room. It ripped a hole through the ceiling, and blasted into the distorted space. The sheer power of the Reiatsu was incredible! It was so strong that it simply tore through the field of distorted space, continuing towards Faust, and leaving an opening in the distorted space while it was passing through. It was such incredible power that it was utterly ridiculous.

He then proceeded to whirl around, his tails whipping out at the distorted space. The tails bounced off, and so as a result Jandro whirled back around, opening his mouth once more. A Cero quickly charged. So this was the result of a human with these kinds of powers... The Cero was a vicious silver color, but it was unmistakable as a Cero. It seemed that humans with this kind of ability could learn hollow techniques as well. Jandro fired off his enormous Cero, blasting it towards the distorted space. It also ripped through, heading for Faust once more. This was truly an incredible technique, for no ordinary Cero was powerful enough to do this. It was most likely some kind of custom Cero.


Jandro's Remaining Reiatsu: 1500 Reiatsu

[Deleted]

"A-Are you kidding me?!" she exclaimed. Asuka in all honesty thought that this oh-so-lovely,quaint, beautiful, peaceful kingdom was suspicious and creepy. Nice but still creepy. Peace and trust just wasn't something she was used to. It was after all, broken four times in her human life. She was forced to run and fend for herself. It was a lonely road. There was just absolutely nothing good or postive about both her lives. She was mad at herself for not being able to trust what was in front of her. Mad at herself for not taking the chance and accepting this place for what it really is. Mad at herself for not realizing that there are a few good things out there. Now she had to deal the bitter consequences.

"Ah!!" she yelped. She looked down at his hand which was stuck in her chest. She coughed up blood."Ah...Dammit....Here we go.." she closed her eyes. She had no idea what she was in store for next. She felt herself being kicked in somewhere. The pain in her chest was near unbearable."I'm not going to die. I'm not going to die. I'm not going to die..Damn..ahahaha This hurts...." she thought as she brought her hand over the hole in her chest. Her eyes still closed.

She felt herself land somewhere. "Ow!" she cried out, opening her eyes. She landed on the ground. Where was she. She looked up, only to see her surround by three fearsome looking guys. Their swords were drawn and pointed at her. Ready to possibly kill her in the worst way possible. "Man..This just isn't my day..." she muttered. She looked at all them with an inquisitive look. One in particular scared her quite a bit. More than Erakos. "Maybe they won't kill me...maybe...." Anyone who is an enemy of the arrancar would have at first sight and it was pretty obvious that she was an arrancar. At least, that's what Asuka thought. "Uhm...Hi." she grinned sheepishly. "Y'know...those look better from a distance and not up close...like how they are now..." she said as she cringed away from the swords. Man, was she in trouble.

[Zou ۞]

"What do you think?" Arashi asked. "She's pretty weak looking." Zouma affirmed. "Just doesn't seem to be her day." Zouma sheathed his own sword, but he took a good look at Asuka. He sniffed once. "Sheathe your swords." he commanded Arashi and Kira. The two of them obeyed, and Zouma walked up to Asuka. "The Espada." he said. "Did they also venture near El Gran Lagrima?" It seemed as if he knew where Asuka had been from the scent of her Reiatsu. Zouma put his hand over Asuka's head, almost as if reading her mind with some kind of technique. At last, he took his hand off of her head. In a single instant, he grabbed Asuka and took off with her, Kira and Arashi following. Soon, they reached El Gran Lagrima once more. The three Vizards, along with Asuka, entered El Gran Lagrima, and were deposited into, stated bluntly, the place that makes even the devil himself shiver.

It was the shadow world, where people simply wandered around with empty expressions like mindless zombies, where the sky was a dull glowing red with some black clouds, where all buildings were but large black towers. It was Ka-Ek's Ogatago World, where Faust and Kuroi were. Their Reiatsu could be sensed battling with other people's Reiatsu. It was evident that Asuka was so weak that she shouldn't even have made it in. The only reason she made it in was because she had been held in Zouma's arms, and Zouma, being the leader of The Vaizard [Also known as Vizards or Visoreds] was simply strong enough to enter here. He set Asuka down, and waited for a moment. He was obviously bad at sensory. "Take me to the Espada." he said calmly, in a reassuring yet commanding tone, but quite the tone of someone harshly commanding a hostage, but of someone requesting.

[Faust Zsalamel]

OOC: Dimitri Skipped His Post

[Faust Zsalamel]

Faust evaded the initial attack by a hair's breadth, gingerly moving towards the right as he anticipated the attack, burning only his left sleeves, and exposing a bandaged arm with runic writings. The runic writings were still glowing very brightly, as if consuming what little light the area has to offer. Faust shook his head for a bit, trying his best to repair his Hierro Espacio while keeping his Cero undetected by Jandro. The space around him continued to ripple violently, still keeping his presence in a blur. This time, his eyes glowed with more intensity, as if his emotions were powering up his technique.

That attack was a close one. The succeeding attack must be the key. Faust thought to himself, but he was surprised when Jandro suddenly rushed through him whipping the condensed Hierro Espacio with what looked like a tail. Suddenly, the human moved back, and started to charge what looked like a Cero. Faust's instincts tell him it was charging faster than a Normal Cero.

Impossible. A human with hollow powers? How much strain is he putting on his body like that? Hollow powers are unbearable even to shinigamis, and very few have become those accursed vizards. Change of plans. Looks like, there is something to look forward to after all. Faust thought to himself, canceling his Cero Espacio, and drawing his small dagger out immediately.

He aimed his dagger at Jandro, firing a recorte bala as soon Jandro released the Cero. Faust gave up his left arm and left leg just so he can position himself the moment the Cero was fired. The Bala travelled faster and was released milliseconds as the Cero was being fired, all thanks to Faust's animalistic instincts. As he fired his bala, he charged his Cero Espacio once again in the obscurity of the spacial blur brought about by his Hierro Espacio, which was punctured by the Cero, obliterating his left arm and leg.

Faust groaned, but didn't show any pain. He focused on watching Jandro, looking for an opportunity to launch his Cero Espacio. He watched as the bala made its way towards the human's opened mouth.

[Zou ۞]

The bala seemed to catch Jandro off guard. No, that wasn't it. It wasn't that he was surprised and couldn't react. It was that he was too weak to react. His powers were tolling him, and an attack as fast as a Bala was going to blow him to bits. It smashed into him, shattering all of his powers instantly like cheap glass as an enormous hole materialized in his chest. He dropped, dead as blood splattered everywhere. Blue reiatsu shot out of him, turning green in mid air as it struck Faust. It bypassed his special hierro completely, and easily, just like butter, as if it didn't even exist. But, rather than have a negative effect, it moved over him to heal his injuries, and eventually restore his reiatsu. Similar reiatsu flew over to Kuroi, doing the same. Aijou backed off. "The plan has begun. Erakos has pulled it off." she said. "We have to take our leave now. Come Ojou." The two of them quickly shattered, gone in an instant.

"What?" Kuroi asked aloud. Suddenly, the walls shattered inwards upon themselves as the Vizards arrived. They were all there, and they dropped Asuka onto the ground as they arrived. "We come bearing gifts." Kira said, nodding towards Asuka. "Kira", Zouma said, flicking his hand as a blue portal ripped open. "Find the other two. Bring them here. They should be in Paris now." Kira quickly nodded, disappearing into the blue portal, which closed. Arashi held his blade as he smiled confidently, walking up to Faust, who's Ressurection had been forced to fade by the sudden replenishment of reiatsu. It could be activated again though, with renewed duration. "What number are you?" Arashi asked, the smile fading as he started to take it seriously. "There's no doubt that you're an Espada."

Meanwhile, Zouma and Kuroi faced off with icy eyes, glaring at each other. "It's been a long time, Vizard Leader." Kuroi said. "Long enough." Zouma replied. The two of them already had swords drawn, and they were both definitely ready to kill each other. Their swords glinted menacingly as they stared each other down. Suddenly, they were only inches apart by the face, their blades crashing against each others as ripples of reiatsu exploded off, cracking the walls and shattering some pillars. The two of them were baring their teeth, growling at each other. "I'm the best..." Zouma whispered. "THE VERY STRONGEST!" He pressed forwards, forcing Kuroi to lose a couple of steps. Not even Aijou and Ojou had challenged Kuroi as much as Zouma was doing. It was obvious, Zouma wasn't toying like Miss Zero. He was fighting with his all, forcing Kuroi to do the same.

"The strongest...?" Kuroi whispered. His eyes glared and narrowed. "Do not get too full of yourself, Shinigami..." He'd purposely ignored that Zouma was a Vizard, but it was obvious that he knew Zouma despised Shinigami. He pressed forwards, forcing the ground back into evenness. However, his words had angered Zouma. "I'm not...A SHINIGAMI!" Zouma shouted. He at last took the encounter with all of his raw strength, blasting Kuroi back. Kuroi flew back, and flipped in mid air, touching his feet against the wall. He launched off of it. It shattered as he did, and Kuroi continued towards Zouma with a full on slashing motion. Zouma, to counter this slash, brought up his blade. Their blades collided, and waves of reiatsu exploded off of them.

The two of them were locked again. Kuroi drew his blade away, and slashed. Zouma parried, then drew his blade and chopped down. They were both right handed, and they both fought with one handed blade styles. They were almost completely evenly matched in their attributes, both physically and spiritually. They even looked somewhat alike. It was clear to anyone watching them, these two had been born to battle each other. Their very purpose was to be at each other's throats, and for this battle to happen, and only one of them to survive. They drew back once more, and Kuroi fired off a Bala towards Zouma, who fired a Shakkaho to counter it. The two attacks collided in mid air, exploding.

"This is getting us nowhere..." Kuroi said. He kicked off where he was, shooting upwards. "COME BACK!" Zouma shouted. He kicked off where he was, shooting upwards as well. The two of them were flying through the floors, and up to the roof, the very top of the tower. At last, they were both visible, standing on the invisible floor that was the air. They were going to battle there. It would be wise for Asuka, Faust, and Arashi to move up there as well. In fact, that was what Arashi did. He grabbed Faust and hurled him up, before following him up. He also hurled Asuka up.


Zouma's Remaining Reiatsu: 2950 Reiatsu

Kuroi's Remaining Reiatsu: 2950 Reiatsu

[Deleted]

"Oh thanks...." she said with sarcasm at their comment of her being weak. She rolled her eyes. A somewhat relieved look appeared on her face once she saw the sheath their swords. She watched as one of them walked up to her. She closed her eyes and flinched a bit as she saw him bring his hand up. "He's definitely going to hurt me.." she thought. Nothing. She felt nothing. "Hm?" She looked up and watched as he just kept his hand above her head. "Er...What is he doing?" she raised an eyebrow. He suddenly grabbed her. She struggled around, trying to free herself. "Let go of me!"

It was no use. She couldn't free herself. Asuka watched as the trio brought her into some sort of eerie shadow world. He said something about her leading him to the espada. She could sense their reiatsu. Faust and Kuroi were here! "I don't know if I should take them...". "Hmph. A please would be nice...and you can't sense it? Their reiatsu?" she asked. She turned around and started walking, signaling them to follow her.

[Zou ۞]

As they reached the area, all the events ensued with Jandro dying, the Vaizard showing up, and everyone going high up into the air, where a new battle was going to take place. They were all there, but mostly, the true focus was the battle between Zouma and Kuroi, who were of course, duking it out. Kuroi drew back as the blade of Zouma stabbed at him, and he slashed across at Zouma's face. Zouma quickly retracted his blade to block, and then he twisted around, cutting straight at Kuroi's shoulder. Kuroi, unable to bring his blade up on time, instinctively brought up his left arm, hurling a Bala into Zouma's blade. Zouma cut through the Bala, and managed to score a slash on Kuroi's shoulder and draw out blood. The blood sprayed as the two floated apart from each other, small trails of reiatsu visible on the tips of their blades, coming out like smoke. "Not bad." Zouma said. "You managed to minimize damage."

"You managed to score a hit." Kuroi replied. "Not bad." The two of them rushed each other again, their blades clashing. Zouma was physically stronger than Kuroi, it was obvious. The two of them split apart again, and Kuroi had a bead of sweat drop down his brow. This fight was getting tiring for him to continue doing. He had to use an ace move soon. "Eviscerate, Tenrai." Zouma said suddenly. His katana turned black and became covered in white hieroglyphics, and masses of blue fire surrounded him. Zouma slashed once, and a huge burst of the blue flames fired off towards Kuroi in a flood. Kuroi managed to charge and fire a Cero into the flames, and the two canceled each other out. "Fine." Kuroi said. "I'll use my own true abilities. My Ressurection." He quickly put his hand over his blade as his eyes lit up. "Silence, Hora."

Kuroi's Remaining Reiatsu: 2700 Reiatsu [400 will be docked later for activating Ressurection]

Zouma's Remaining Reiatsu: 2750 Reiatsu

[Hara Lucious]

Dimitri managed to notice the other three in the shadows, He Swung his Katana now despretly at the Vampires, He knew it was a dire situation for him. He had a feeling he might soon feel the Embrace of death, He kinda looked forward to it in a way, His slices where strong yet, adrenaline pumped through him causing him to go into a rage. He was swinging his katana franticly probably missing everytime, If they would connect though then they would be deep wounds to whatever skin the katana came in contact with. He was desperate now, He knew this was a bad thing, Once he was done swinging his sword around, He stepped back to regain his composure.

[Zou ۞]

Suddenly, the sword was blocked by an invisible wall, and a tearing sound occurred as a black portal erupted into existence in front of Dimitri. It sucked him directly in, and deposited him in Ka-Ek's world. In fact, he was deposited in the air with Asuka. Since the two of them were enemies, they were expected to battle.

[Faust Zsalamel]

Faust stared blankly for a while, trying to take in what has happened so far. First he saw Jandro suddenly defeated, but it was mostly what he expected. As an energy haze shot through him, he felt his body regenerating everything vital its lost, including reiatsu. The rest was handled by his High Speed Regeneration. He stood up gingerly, trying to refocus himself. He saw Kuroi fighting with Aijou but almost instantly, Aijou and Oujou left. Then the wall near them suddenly burst open, revealing four figures, three of which were unfamiliar to Faust, but the other one was very familiar.

"Asuka?" Faust remarked almost instantly.

He gazed at the three new comers and was rather surprised when one of them engaged Kuroi, fighting him in nearly equal footing. He was even more amazed when one of them addressed him, asking him if he was an Espada. He quickly felt a strong surge of sensation from within him, as if the person in front of him is like him, but at the same time, not like him.

This one reeks of shinigami, but there's something very hollow-like around him. Curious. Curious. Faust remarked. But before he knew it, he was hurled upwards, into the air. He saw Asuka being hurled too. He stabilized himself in midair just in time to see Kuroi and the unknown figure duke it out in mid air. He also quickly grabbed Asuka by the shoulders, stabilizing her in mid air, then carrying upwards smoothly.

As he reached the top, he landed expertly in an empty space, in thin air. He stood on the air, space rippling underneath his feet. He quickly laid Asuka down, and watched intently on the sudden turn of events. His instincts tell him that he'll have to let Kuroi handle it alone.

Amazing. I can feel the surge of reiatsu from those two. If I tried to interfere, I feel I'm not going to be able to hold on my own. Faust thought to himself, carefully observing the two.

Suddenly saw a shinigami enter the scene from out of nowhere. He casually looked at the new entrant, and felt the reiatsu around him. He let out a low growl and went back to watching Kuroi and the unknown figure. Somehow, he didn't want to involve himself with shinigamis for a while.

[Zou ۞]

"Sorry." Arashi said very suddenly. "Even if you ignore me and watch Zouma fight your friend, I can't leave you alone." He rushed forwards in an instant, moving at a rather generalized speed. He was fast, but not too fast. His blade swung towards Faust in an instant, slashing directly at his face. He immediately backed off, this having only been a feint. "Tangen." he said. Suddenly, his blade turned silver and cloned itself. There were two blades, one in each hand. He crossed them together, and they vibrated quickly. An enormous beam of white reiatsu fired off towards Faust, heading for him. While Arashi did this, he took a quick glance back towards Zouma and Kuroi, who were duking it out. It was at that moment that Kuroi released his zanpakutou, going into his Ressurection. Could Zouma be doomed? This was a possibility that nobody could deny.

Kuroi had the light weight black scale-like armor, and he had the changed hair and eyes, the clawed hands and feet. "You're weaker than me." he said. "Don't try to think otherwise!" He rushed forward, twin blades of reiatsu materializing on his wrist slits. He slashed, but Zouma parried. Blue flames rose up, and Kuroi spun aside, disappearing in an instant Sonido. He rematerialized behind Zouma and stabbed towards him. Of course, Zouma parried, which daunted Kuroi to get to his best technique of his current Ressurection. "Silenzio Hazo..." he muttered. The reiatsu blades shattered, replaced by constantly rippling transparent blades over his wrist slits. Kuroi danced around Zouma, slashing at him. Zouma parried, but suddenly, a gigantic and constantly rippling transparent dome materialized around them. It then grew, becoming a sphere that they were fighting in.

Kuroi rushed forwards. Zouma tried to move away, but he was too slow. "I'm faster than you now." Kuroi said. He slashed into Zouma's shoulder, and then slashed across his arm. The original targets had been Zouma's gut and chest, but quick flicks of his blade had been enough to divert them. However, he slowed even more, and could no longer keep up with Kuroi. "No." Kuroi said. "More accurately, you are getting slower." He rolled back, and then charged forwards again. This time, Kuroi scored twin direct slashes across Zouma's chest, diagonally crossing them to make an X. Zouma swore, and Kuroi backed off again. He prepared another attack. "Guess I have no choice..." Zouma muttered. He put his left hand over his face. Instantly, black reiatsu exploded onto his face, and wolf-like hollow mask materialized on his face. It was his Vizard Mask, the hollow transformation.



Instantly, his speed was once again on par with Kuroi's. The dome no longer held any sway, but Kuroi kept it up so that Zouma could not get even faster and surpass him. "RRR...." Kuroi hissed as Zouma's blade crashed against his. Zouma was also much stronger. Kuroi was blasted back, but he managed to charge a Gran Rey Cero. He fired it off, and it shot towards Zouma, who countered it by slashing with his cold fire, which had turned a dark red. "Face it!" Kuroi shouted. "You are no match for me, even with your mask!" Zouma did not respond, only charged forwards. Kuroi prepared to attack again, but Zouma stopped short. He charged a large Cero, and fired it off. In response, Kuroi fired off an Enma Cero directly at Zouma. "IT'S OVER!" he shouted. His cero obliterated that of Zouma, and continued forwards.

"NOT BY A LONG SHOT!" Zouma shouted. He quickly roared as dark red flames exploded all around the sphere. Kuroi kept them at bay with his reiatsu, and spiritual pressure, and so Zouma couldn't use the filling to his advantage. Instead, he decided that now was the time to simply crush Kuroi. "Tenrai RESSURECTION!" Zouma roared. Kuroi took a step back, and a black veil enclosed Zouma. As it faded, it revealed a form that Kuroi was shocked to see. Zouma's hair had become long and spiked, surrounding his mask. Horns portruded from his head, and he had a spiked tail. A hollow hole was visible on his chest. He had pure white skin, and clawed hands and feet. Black flame tattoos were visible all over his body, and his mask had come to cover his whole head, becoming his used face in fact. His eyes were a glowing red.

Zouma still held his blade, but he did not seem to need it as much as before. The worst part of his transformation was the wings. He had gigantic wings made completely of black fire, and Tenrai's shikai ability had diminished to be replaced by this Ressurection. Zouma was suddenly behind Kuroi. Kuroi gasped as literally 18 slashes exploded across his chest. Blood sprayed everywhere, and he dropped to his knees. The dome shattered, and so did his blades. But he wasn't beaten yet. Kuroi stood up, and drew out gray cylinders of a bone-like substance. They ignited to reveal twin blades of white reiatsu, both shrieking and wild. Kuroi battled Zouma for a bit with these, blocking some attacks, but he was no match for the Vizard Leader in full glory. At last, Kuroi saw his opening however, as Zouma stabbed him directly in the gut. Flames rushed over and began licking at Kuroi. Kuroi, taking his chance, shoved both of his blades into Zouma's hands, and pressed red buttons on them.

Kuroi fired off a Bala to blast himself away, sending himself off through the air, away from Zouma as a massive explosion of white reiatsu occurred. Kuroi panted as he skidded to a stop on one knee, and the smoke cleared to reveal Zouma. Zouma's shirt and coat were both gone, and he had massive burns all across his body. His entire hollow form was gone, and all he had was his blade in sealed form. Kuroi was still in Ressurection, but he was badly injured. The two of them faced each other with pants as blood dripped out. "We're at a stand still..." Kuroi muttered. "No..." Zouma hissed. "I still have one thing to show you..."


Zouma's Remaining Reiatsu: 400 Reiatsu

Kuroi's Remaining Reiatsu: 2300 Reiatsu [-1490 when Ressurection fades]

Arashi's Remaining Reiatsu: 2700 Reiatsu
