ACTUAL BLEACH MUSIC AAAHHHH
Just as Anarchy was being attacked by Zeich, the blonde woman from earlier appeared as well. She had utilized an instantaneous flash step to dodge his columns of heat, and, utilizing her skills as a Captain, had been quick to track her attacker. Zeich, therefore, would find that as he went to use ash along with his blade to attack Anarchy, the woman appeared with a scythe quickly materializing in her grasp, accompanied by the sound of a sickening scream. Judging by the robes and the Haori? A Captain that Anarchy hadn't met before. But, Zeich would know her. In terms of raw combat ability, she was the only Captain nearly as aggressive as Sozen Kuchiki. The Kasumi'Oji Family's Head, Taiho Kasumi'Oji.
Appearing there, she had already released her Shikai. And, in fashion, she spoke as she closed in on Anarchy, taking a wide swing at his mid section, aiming to bisect him. "There won't be any need to dissect you... You're strong, but not terribly interesting. You can just die here." Ordinarily, Taiho would have simply attempted to dissect someone at Anarchy's level, but she had decided after observing his abilities that she'd already seen specimens like him before. Now, in addition to that, Taiho was doing something unusual for her. Shikai. Normally she didn't begin with her Zanpakuto released. In this case, an exception was made because of acknowledgment of the condition of war and of Anarchy's strength.
At the same time, a large eye erupted into existence above Zeich, Anarchy, and Taiho. It did nothing yet at first, but it was noteworthy that it was covered in vicious looking barbs and spikes. It floated there, staring down at that fight. It seemed as if all was going to be well, but of course they were in trouble given the dragon's presence. Its second mouth was already opening, but they had arrived quickly enough to get in a couple of attacks before it neutralized the ashes and likely the eye as well. If they could hurry, they might just be able to hurt Anarchy without the dragon's interference--Assuming, of course, he was generous enough to allow it.
Meanwhile, Kouhai was the first to respond to Saeki's taunt. There's no need, he thought to himself with a smile. I have brought all of my forces for this very reason. The old man is in my trap, now, after all. The Captain Commander, as he was burning Kouhai's chest, would suddenly be struck by a heavy slash to his back which drew blood, and gasped. It wasn't enough to down him, but the blade had been both huge and powerful, and the Captain Commander was quick to step away from Kouhai and reposition himself, firing a blast of flames from Ryuujin Jakka straight at his new attacker. It was a good thing that the Captain Commander had escaped.
The attacker's first slash had just been a slash, and the old man had been very fast in escaping. Had he not, he would have suddenly been caught in the onslaught of sword attacks which were so fluid in motion as to have appeared to be fire. "Jigoku No Ato: Saisho No Sodofomu..." the enormous, gray skinned beast composed of nothing but muscles hissed. "Ikari-En..." The monstrosity held two enormous swords in its two enormous hands. In terms of stature, muscle, everything... It was even larger than the old man, who himself was considered huge. This was something else entirely. The Hell Denizen named Grimoire Acero, as the fire came at it, suddenly shifted stance.
"Jigoku No Ato: Shikkussu No Sodofomu. CHITANDOMU." Its swords suddenly shifted into a defensive motion, and it appeared as if there was a large silver dome surrounding it. The flames were parted and blasted aside by this, though afterward, it was noticeable that the monster's swords were beginning to melt from having encountered the Captain Commander's heat. Throwing aside his two swords, Grimoire kicked out his legs, and large bladed chains emerged from beneath his pants. In reality, he could fight with horrible, deadly chains... And as the old man took note of Grimoire, his new adversary, Kouhai closed in with amazing speed, and stabbed at the old man. The old man blocked, but Kouhai had other plans too. "Hado #90: Kurohitsugi."
Back at Souza vs Saeki, there came acknowledgment from Saeki to Kouhai's words. I see... I've never encountered a being from Hell, before. I quite look forward to seeing it in action. She smirked, then, at Souza, whose reiatsu burst around his body. "Atsureki No Koe Ga: Soul Merge," Souza whispered. Then, his reiatsu took the form of purple flames which coated his body, and though he continued to hold a saber in his right hand, it became apparent he may no longer be relying on it as his main mode of attack. His eyes turned a glowing, royal blue, and Souza prepared to attack. Saeki noted the difference, and spoke aloud. "My, I've never seen someone commune with their Zanpakuto in this way before. How interesting."
Souza plunged forward toward Saeki, attacking her head on. Unfortunately, there came a new attacker to defend. Appearing in a black suit with a black tie, with black eyes and black hair, an enemy of Souza's father appeared. Once the Segunda Espada, and now no longer, there came the arrival of yet another huge battlefield presence. Kuroi Naito. His Zanpakuto came up to block Souza's first saber strike. The legendary Arrancar's black eyes met with Souza's glowing blue, and Saeki grinned all the more widely. She hadn't even engaged in direct combat herself, yet! She had just been organizing and guiding everyone else. And this... This was frustrating to Souza.
"Kuroi Naito..." Souza said. "Step aside, or I will be far less merciful than my father was." Kuroi, gazing down at the shorter individual, spoke a measured response. "If that is the case, then show me if the Heir truly can duplicate the father's power. As it stands now, you more resemble a chihuahua than a lion." Souza's body suddenly released a black twister which emanated thousands of speaking voices as its sound, and this washed over Kuroi. However, though it did so, Kuroi's black reiatsu flexed around his body immediately, and the twister literally shattered. Kuroi had the superior class and spiritual ability. Souza couldn't touch him here. "You must be joking," Kuroi insisted. "Is that really all? Pathetic."
Back to Hiroshi Shihoin. He smiled at Grin's comments. A level-headed man, and one who had learned patience as he rotted away in the prison for centuries, Hiroshi had only one thing to say. Not even acknowledging Grin face to face, he instead spoke to Okami. "What's an overeager pup like this doing here, Okami?" Hiroshi asked with a sneer. "If you're going to face me, you shouldn't be babysitting at the same time." Suddenly, Grin slashed. After Hiroshi's reaction, he also rushed in. Having decided not to coordinate with Okami, he had rushed in. Though Hiroshi was low on reiatsu, he would still be more than capable of defending himself.
As Grin's slashing air was coming, Hiroshi side stepped. With his robotic legs, a huge stride, and done far more automatically than if just muscle had been responsible. Then, as Grin was disappearing into an attack in response, there came Hiroshi's next reply, though it was unclear when he had spoken, as no one noted his mouth moving. "Weave, spin, and ensnare, Kurogokegumo." Hiroshi's sword suddenly disappeared completely, and at the same time, he used a flash step--his final flash step before he'd be out of reiatsu, escaping Grin's sudden appearance. In this way, he disappeared entirely. No immediate changes took places, but for Hiroshi disappearing and managing to appear next to his Quincy ally, far away. "Hey," he said, holding out his arm. "I need reiatsu." The old Quincy looked at Hiroshi, and then touched his hand to Hiroshi's arm. "I might have some to spare..." he said. "Bullshit," Hiroshi chuckled. "You've been sitting there charging this whole time. You have more than twice my maximum in spare already."
Meanwhile, Grin would appear where Hiroshi had previously been, both attacks missing. And it was then, and only then, that he would feel something. A bite on the back of his neck. There was no telling how or when a spider had gotten there. Only that it had. And, if he shook it off, he would see that though it was supposed to be a mere house spider, it was significantly larger in size, and it was glowing all of the colors of the rainbow at once, shining beautifully. When had it gotten on him? Well, given all he had been doing--Sensing, attacking, moving... It was no surprise that if one had been on his body, it hadn't been noticed until now. Though, at that size? It seemed unlikely. Had it been a normal spider, it easily could have stuck on him if it was under his clothes in any way, and could have escaped notice. But, it was as big as a quarter. So, then, what?
Meanwhile, Hiroshi's spiritual power was refilling.

{Hiroshi Shihoin's Shikai}
It isn't JUST Shikai. Hiroshi has a latent ability to control spiders. It is a passive, telepathic ability that he has always possessed. He has always been able to mentally command spiders. That's a non-release ability which hints at what his actual release does. When he releases Shikai, he gains dominion over all spiders, indicated by a rainbow hue. He is able to alter their sizes at will from very small to as large as a person. What's more, because he can mentally control them, he can make them bite people. And his Shikai arms them with a different kind of toxin. Depending on the spider, they already have toxins, but this arms them with another ability. Anyone they bite will receive not a poison of the body, but of the mind. It will mimic sleep terrors, schitzo, and intense hallucinations all simultaneously. In other words, it is a FEAR based power. The victim quickly becomes encapsulated by fear and hallucinations, starting a post after having been bit. These get worse and worse with every post, and are nearly incapacitating because of how truly severe they are.
Worth mention that Okami knows ALL of this. He knows Hiroshi can control spiders AND what Hiroshi's Shikai does. He also knows that it is quite likely that Hiroshi, as per his usual tactics, had spiders sneaking up from around the battelfield (as one is never more than ten feet from a spider at any given time) from the moment he became a player on the field. In other words, Hiroshi has probably been sneaking spiders up everyone in immediate range. Okami, Grin, and others. And he's just waiting to spring his trap on them, as the bite isn't all that he can do. It is worth mention that with his telepathic ability, Hiroshi can also communicate with the spiders to get a glimpse of what they see.
Also, how he might notice people is suspect. He has a built in reiatsu sensor and sound radar in his body. Machines which do a lot of work for him. He can even locate heartbeats using this machine, and he is capable of using echo location if necessary.
