Thread (XII) at Suptg- http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/25667025/

First, let me explain how dice rolls work here on Bleach Quest. I take the best of three, barring any Critical Successes or Critical Failures. If I have not yet asked for dice, and you roll anyway, your roll will count towards the next time I ask for rolls be it for good or ill. After I get three results for a roll, all others are discarded. Normally I take best of 3. If you delete rolls, I will discard that and take the second highest roll.

>CRITICAL MASTER I

From now on any and all crits, good or bad, within the first ten rolls are stored to be used on the next roll, exponential affecting it if there’s more than one.

>In the Blood

You’ve awakened your inherent Quincy blood!

>Sixth Sense

Takes the first five rolls when searching for spiritual energy
Skills:
>Shunpo - are currently at 562 out of 1500 for Rank 3 of Shunpo.
>Swordsmanship - are at 614 out of 1500 for Rank 3 of Swordsmanship. You are now a Competent swordsman!
>Zanpakuto - are currently at 1337 out of 10,000 to reach next rank- can only be improved by training
>Control- You are currently at 517 out of 600 for Rank 2 of Control.
>Kido- You are currently at 0 out of 500 for Rank 1 of Kido
>Hollow powers- You are currently at 0 out of 1000 for Rank 2.
>Sixth Sense - You are currently at 645 out of 1000 for Rank 2 of Sixth Sense
>Quincy- you are currently at 839 out of 1000 for Rank 1.

{--------} is unlocked! You feel like you might have the ability to pierce through space and reach a place more safe for hollows. can only use this when hollowified.

Skills available to purchase!
>{----} - 500 xp -hollow
>{---- ----- ------------} -1500xp - 811 towards-hollow

You have 5000 experience to spend.

For starters

So does improving control negate our ability to boost our allies via social links?

>Quincy- you are currently at 839 out of 1000 for Rank 1.
>{----} - 500 xp -hollow
>{---- ----- ------------} -1500xp - 811 towards-hollow
>Hollow powers- You are currently at 0 out of 1000 for Rank 2.

Rest in Zanpakuto, if available.
>>
>>25999227
So... here's what I think.

We should get (---) and {---- ----- ------------} so that we don't have to owrry about them any more.

Rank 3 of Shunpo. Rank up Control, Quincy, and Sixth Sense and Sordsmanship?
>>
>>25999227
Unlock both Hollow skills. (1189)
Rank Up:
Kidou x 2
Sixth Sense
Quincy
Hollow Powers

Put the rest into Hollow Powers...Rome
>>
>>25999266

Control is our ability to manipulate our spirit energy...something Ichigo usually lacks in canon.

Seconding Finishing off {---- ----- ----------}
Then Rank Hollow Power
Then Rank Quincy Power
Then Rank Shunpo
Rest in Control...unless I've estimated incorrectly.
>>
>>25999311
Er...

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
>>
>>25999259
689 towards High Speed Regenration
161 towards Quincy
355 towards Sixth Sense
500 towards Cero
1000 towards Hollow

Total: 2705
>>
>>25999316
I thought the reason Ichigo boosted his allies was due to being unable to contain his spirit energy?
>>
>>25999238
Right off the bat we can upgrade
Control down to the next level (including hollow skills) for 2988xp
This leaves us 2112xp to put towards either shunpo or swordsmanship.

So we can get all the next upgrades we are currently working for aside from Zanpakuto and either Shunpo OR Sword
>>
okay finish off {---- ----- ------------}
and grab {----}
Also level up control,Hollow powers, sixth sense, and Quincy. After that dump whatever is left into zanpakuto.
>>
We should probably make the HSR and cero purchases then rank Quincy then pause to see what abilities ranking Quincy unlocked.
>>
>>25999345
Can't dump anything in zanpaktou.
>>
Okay, upgrading Shunpo, Swordsmanship, control, quincy, sixth sense, hollow powers and getting high speed regen costs 3757 points. What do we want to do with the remaining 1243?
>>
>>25999345
Zanpakuto can only bve upgraded via training. We can't spend this xp on it.
>>
>>25999324
Seconding this. I would appreciate seeing if anything gets unlocked by quincy before further spending.
>>
>sixth sense
Why do you want to do that, when crits determine how it works?
>>
>>25999359
Unlock newly revealed stuff from ranking Quincy and hollow?
>>
>>25999340

Yes, it's the reason his friend's powers happened because he couldn't control things, if he can control things, we can do amazing shit.

Though in this game, their powers enhance by us building our social links.

If we can control our power better, we can use it for more shit, probably.
>>
Guys, we shouldn't spend all the points at once. We might be able to rank something and gets news skills because of it, so we should decide on what to buy and then rank something up, see if it unlocks something, rinse and repeat.
>>
>>25999379
A new level may change how the dice pool works, or make it easier to win without crits
>>
Also, I know it's terrible metagaming and such, but all in favor of trying to make whats his name in the Menos Forest an ally say I?
>>
>>25999324
Thirding this, but let's throw 500 into Kidou.
>>
1189 xp for the two remaining Hollow skills.

We want to blend in, after all.
Another 1000 for the first rank of Hollow powers.

Top off control, 6th sense, and Quincy.

After that, see what we unlock for skills.


ALSO
I suggest we adopt a pseudonym for our foray into the desert.

Carlito may be a good option.
>>
>>25999395
If we can find him, then yeah, lets team up with Rambo.
>>
>>25999395

We've been talking about recruiting Survivalist Badass who only didn't get into manga canon because the editors pressed him for lowering page counts. Ashido is awesome, and we should bring him home for our not quite Outer Heaven.
>>
>>25999227
Also Cos you forgot to add:
>King and the Horse II! Whenever you wear your mask, roll 2d20, and take the best of the two on the first three rolls. However, critical master only extends to the first five rolls...
To the OP
>>
>>25999395
Ashido Kano? Yeah, he's a bro. May not like us if we reveal our mask.
>>
>>25999383
works for me. All of those upgrades are things we are going to grab eventually anyway. Might as well get them now.
>>
>>25999411
>>25999409

We should mistaken him for a vizard because the dude likes to wear hollow masks.
>>
>>25999402
Based off of Hichigo's appearance: We are Shiro.
>>
>>25999402
perhaps we'll find some pleasant companions
>>
>>25999402
>Blend in
We're only staying long enough until we can use our mask, in which case we're headed back.

Regardless of Chizuru having the power of a god, we're not ready for Hueco Mundo.
>>
>>25999417

But he has so many of them on his cloak.

We'll cross that bridge if we come to it.
>>
>>25999434
You are now imagining Ichigo and Chizuru with those mustaches.
>>
>>25999311
rank shunpo again, too. speed is king
>>
The only ones i want to run into while in ghost mexico are Nel and her cronies.
>>
>>25999441

While we're here, we might as well try to see if we can get a beat on Masaki. So in our leveling plan should be sixth sense.
>>
>>25999432
>Shiro
>not Blanco

Try to blend in.
>>
>>25999449
http://youtu.be/1jJsYbVBnaE
>>
>>25999417
Just pretend it's stolen off someone, just like his. We can explain later, after departing.
>>
I just realised we can level everything we have (aside from Zanpukto) to the next level and have some left over.

What do you say?
>>
>>25999473
This is what happens when you do Hogyoku, kids

You get UNLIMITED POOOOWAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>
I wonder if Rukia got samurai Jack'd here to undo the evil that is Aizen. someone brought it up a few threads ago, and its a pretty awesome concept
>>
Unlock Hollow skills. It might cause our reiatsu to resemble that of a Hollow's more, making us less likely to being attacked by Hollows.
Of course, they'll attack us if we're Hollows anyway, but it couldn't hurt.
Also, what does our mask look like now?
>>
>>25999488

Winners can do drugs.
>>
>>25999385
I think the reason social links work is because of our leaky power.

Although I guess just because we -can- focus our power doesn't necessarily mean we can do it unconsciously?

Like I'm just worried we might close things off with Chad, Keigo, Tatsuki, and Mizuiro.
>>
>>25999493
I think we're up to maximum stripes.

Probably won't reach true form until we get our Ressureccion.
>>
>>25999470
Exactly.
>>
>>25999503

Chad is already started down his path, and we must spend more time with him soon. Maybe after we get home & things have cooled for a bit, we can bust our Ichigo's infrequently used Guitar and see if Chad wants to help us practice, and then Jam for a few hours before going out to meet up with the others and crack some punks' faces along the way because they tried to mess with us.
>>
>>25999324
Lets do this and see if it unlocks any skills we care about, then spend the rest.
>>
>>25999503
I'm working under the assumption that we can relax our control at will (and automatically do so while social linking). Hopefully Cosgrove will set me straight if this isn't the case.
>>
>Raising control will not affect social links.
>>
>>25999569
Forget your trip, or was this posted earlier?
>>
>>25999522

It occurs to me, that our Ressureccion if we get it will differ between 3 possible states.

If we up our control enough to seal Zangetsu in base form again that would provide Ressureccion 1.
Regular Shikai stage Ressureccion.
Bankai stage Ressureccion.
>>
>>25999324
Agreed with this.

Unless something really nice opens up, I would like to put the remaining to:
938 to Shunpo Rank 3
886 to Swordsmanship
>>
>>25999569
If that's so, then >>25999324
but 483 towards Control, resulting in a total of 3188.
>>
>>25999601
Toss in Control and I agree.
>>
>>25999601
seems legit
>>
>>25999569
forgot trip
>>
>>25999601
>>25999635
Second, third, whatever we're up too.
>>
>>25999227
689 - High speed regen
83 - control
2500 - Hollow 4
938 - shunpo
161 - quincy
Dump the last 629 into shunpo
>>
>>25999601
Am I the only one who wants to put a some xp into kidou.
>>
Unless my math is off, we can buy all of the hollow upgrades and rank up everything besides kido and zanpakuto with 388 exp left over, which we should put into zanpakuto, and if we can't then we can put it into our quincy rank or swordsmanship since that's what we use the most anyways.

Truly such an event should do nothing but good things for this episode.

If this was an american cartoon, they'd stop the action, break the fourth wall, and thank the audience!
>>
Just so you all know-
Last thread was fucking terrifying. More so for me because after a certain point, I couldn't respond due to technical difficulties, and so was forced to watch in horror as events unfolded.
But you came through, anonymous.
Fuck yeah.

Now, on to Mexico!
Hoping we stumble upon GhostRambo soon enough, because that guy is what we need in a situation like this.

How he doesn't have shikai, or even fucking bankai, after decades of that, I will never know.
>>
>>26000047
Cosgrove is most familiar with manga, but due to FULL KUBO, appearance of anime and film concepts cannot be discounted.
>>
>>26000047
>in anime canon
FUCK thats even more bullshit then normal, also doesn't that mean also that soul society's utterly fucked without us showing up?
>>
>>26000063
>How he doesn't have shikai, or even fucking bankai

How long have you been operating under the impression that he doesn't have a bankai?
>>
>>26000063
He spoke to his collections of hollow masks more then his sword I guess.
>>
>>26000018
This assumes massive time shenanigans between Kurakura and Hueco Mundo unless the Bounts want to move up their schedule by over six months.
>>
>>26000047
we should get out ASAP anyway. we left everyone kinda unexpectedly
>>
>>26000084
I don't think that would be a problem considering where we are right now.
>>
>>26000072
We have no fucking clue what's going on.

We're so out of the loop that we're wandering the desert with our cool gay friend.

We're going to need multiple gaiden threads for this.

SKILL UPDATE!

>>26000047
We are in KUBO cannon, so god knows.
Personally that Harrabeil and Nelliel back-story from Happy to Serve you could stand to included as well
>>
>>26000063

While we are here, we should try to search for Masaki, once Cosgrove sorts out our earlier stated XP spending.

We're here, we might as well look around with sixth sense...she doesn't have Quincy powers, but she has a hollow that should feel the same as ours inside of her, additionally, until recently she was connected to Isshin by a reishi string, so we should look for a broken red spirit thread.
>>
>>26000094
Agreed.
We kind of left our two girlfriends holding the rope to a Captain, and since Urahara was "delayed", no backup.

>>
>>26000127

Excuse my ignorance, but who?

Can still put points in? If so

Dump that into there.
>>

I still want to get Kido and swordsmanship but I figure we can probably move on now.

Also is that rock still inbedded in Chizuru and if so how does she currently appear?
>>
>>26000138

Ashido, he's a Shinigami who has been stranded in the Menos Forest for a long ass time. He shows up in what we thought was just a short HC filler segment during the march on Las Noches...turns out it was content cut from the comic because Kubo's editors wanted to get to Las Noches.

He is a boogeyman to the hollows, and wears their severed mask as cloak and armor.

>>
>>26000171
Seconding this sentiment. I don't think the points are enough to unlock that Shunpo skill.
>>
We should probably wait for putting anything into Quincy special abilities until we get back and train together with the Magical Girl.

Personally I think we should put the XP into Shunpo special ability, as additional defense will likely be useful in not getting our asses kicked in the future.

Dude, that's fuckin' badass.

>>26000080
And the thread is off to a good start- I'm already laughing.

Seriously, though, if he does have shikai or bankai, and is just killing Menos with his sealed sword, that man is the epitome of badass.

>>26000127
>>26000066
Ashido WAS Kubo Canon, though- he's Kubo's personal creation for the anime that he couldn't put in the manga due to time constraints.

You looks around this nighttime wasteland ,but all you see is white sand and dead trees. You’re tired, dead exhausted really, and sore. You don’t think you’ve ever been hurt and drained this bad before. Not to mention, trying to drain Chizuru of that power fried you. Your powers don’t seem the same.

That’s… worrying.

However, what’s more worrying is that you’re in the homeland of hollows and you’re running empty. You need to find shelter. For both you and Chizuru.

But all you see is a wasteland, but from the moon overhead, you're able to, barely, discern direction.

>>
>>26000464
Yeah, that was a poor choice of words due to me skimming over the hollow powers update on our skills sheet. What I'm trying to say is that weir hollow powers will probably stay masked only until we grow past the need for a mask. You're absolutely right that the next hollow level is probably Vasto, followed by a ~10k purchase priced option or arrancarize.
>>
>>26000390
basically hollow form gives you three rolls of 2d20. This gives you, when normally used outside of that makes it first five dice rolls.

When masked and swordsmanshipping it, your first five rolls are counted, which means that it extends out to the same amount as ciritcal master in hollow from, but if no crits, best of those first five is taken.
>>
>>26000544

You use your dwindling strength to try to avoid any and all possible confrontations, but when you use your sixth sense, you see that there is a giant impossible huge amount of those giant hollows to the west.

There’s also several very large signatures to the north. Less, but stronger.

>>

maybe Barragan, with his court. That seems more likely.

East and west are either Harribel (She has a strong presence, but her group wouldn't, compared to her) , Ulquiorra (he's the One) and Staark (the Two).

North might also be Harribel or Grimmjow, with his pack of hollows.

I'll refrain from voting, since this is meta, but I just wanna say-
This is our chance to meet Sharktits.
Or The Lone Ranger.

I personally would love for us to hang out with either, but we'd die just from getting near staark at this rate.

>>
>>26000850

True...if there is nothing else but the single source...we may want to avoid said single source of power.
>>
>>26000821
i think we'd be alright near starrk personally because we just dealt with hongyouku chizuru whos much more powerful comparatively i'd think
so yeah, i'd imagine we could be buddies theoretically.
>>
>>26000850
That... might be a good point?

If it's one strong presence, it could be because they've killed everything in the general area.

Two may imply that they have some concept of camaraderie?

But it might be kind of metagaming, so I say southeast.
>>
>>26000860
The ones to the north and south feel more like Momo when she wears her mask, but definitely remind you of hollows. The west is giant hollows and the east is one powerful singular hollow... you think.
>>
>>26000873
At full power, we could no doubt chill with Starrk, but running on empty is a no-go.
>>
>>26000719
South.
Just one signature, a lone person out in this wasteland? Probably bad news.
>>
>>26000895
Are we only sensing hollows?

Yeah, yeah. Metagaming again and all that... but hey, Ash has like... more expierence then us in being in Hueco Mundo without turning into a monster of some sort.
>>
>>26000895
Let's head east and say hello.
>>
>>26000895
>>26000719
Then we head south. It might be someone that shares our condition. Maybe even Shinji. Failing that, it's only two signatures which we might be able to avoid if we sense something's wrong when we get closer.
>>
>>26000918

We'll look for spirit threads and non hollows after we've had a chance to recover and get ourself back in fighting shape as well as find out if Chizuru is okay/in control/what the hell happened to her?
>>
>>26000895
South.
Based on this alone, South.
As far as we know, Hollows don't travel in pairs- but these feel like more than hollows, so there's some hope there.
>>
>>26000895
So, south is Stark and Lillinette.
North is too populated.
East is...Ulquiorra or Halibel? A vastolorde.
>>
>>26000934

If we go south west could we avoid both? We really don't want to be meeting anyone with how run down and out we are.

>>26000988
Technically southwest or southeast are options as well.
>>
>>26000984
We are drained and we think our powers and abilities might be shot or be going haywire.
We're in no shape for ANY fight. Be it with an Arrancar army or a small child.

>south

Looking around you decide that, based on what you’ve felt, it would be best to go south. The north is too populated, the west is giant fucking hollows and the east is a very fucking powerful hollow. And you’re at almost empty.

The south might have other people like you, people who have gained hollow masked. Maybe they might even be allies.

But it isn’t safe to stay here. Who knows when the little hollows will go investigate or, worse, the big ones will.

No, best to try to find a cave to the south to rest and check on Chizuru. You pick her up in a princess carry and start trudging to the south.

So that's how this is nerfed.

It was a risk/reward situation. We willingly risked a horrible fate by taking the perk, but the bet paid off.

The risk mitigates the need for a cost.

You’ve traveled for quite awhile, but after a short time you find that you got turned around. With a quick use of spirit sense, you find that you’re closer to the presence in the east. Or maybe its just that it is now closer to you. But you can sense that there’s a few other presences with it. Still strong but weaker.

You think you’ve managed to slip their notice, considering that you’re presence is so weak, as hurt and tired as you are. You turn towards what you think is south, based on your sixth sense, and head that way, forcing your body to keep moving despite your current state.

You don’t feel anything within the cave, so you carefully go to investigate. You enter it and notice that this cave looks old. There’s stairs and old looking torches on the walls, burning despite their age. What looks like a table carved out of a stone is in there.

Someone used to live here, but how long ago, you’re not sure. But… this is also the first shelter you’ve seen and there’s no hollows around, except the three you’ve hid. Chizuru is also out cold and you’re almost completely empty. Only your resolve has kept you going. And you're not sure how much longer that'll work.

You set Chizuru down in the far corner, taking off your kosode ad laying it under her head as a pillow. You give her a look over, trying to assess her condition. Though she’s got tears in her clothes, especially where the black orb is situated, her clothes are still functional.

But what’s more worrying is the fact that she’s feverish and unconscious, not waking. Was it from the orb, or was it from her overstressing herself earlier? You’re not sure, but you’re certain it isn’t good. However, there isn’t anything you can do either. You’ll have to wait it out for her to break the fever or…

Your hands clasp the one of hers next to you. “Please, Chizuru. Don’t give in.”

Letting go, you look around the cave but see nothing of use. You’re in the far corner, hard to see from the entrance of the cave.

You’re also extremely tired and need to rest.

Guys, in canon, even when Ichigo got his ass kicked, he still had a lot of power to spare. It's just that it couldn't negate the damage to his body.

But now us?

We're on empty. And we have a LOT to recover.

Due to having Hollow/Quincy powers, we're in the best location possible to regain our abilities, but it'll probably be at least several more days before we're good enough to find our own way home.

You sit next to Chizuru, Zangetsu on your lap, and try to keep yourself between her and the door. You try to keep vigil, but you’re body is too tire to keep going. Against your will you find yourself falling asleep.

When you wake up, it is to the sounds of voices. Groggily opening your eyes, you see four… things in front of you. Trying to focus, you see that it is four hollows? One seems to be a giant snake, another looks like a lion and another looks like a deer. The last one has shark-like features, but looks humanoid. And, even from here, you can tell that it is strong. The four of them seem to be arguing over something. Probably you and Chizuru.

You feel like you’ve only recovered less than a fifth of your strength, but as you look about, they hollows draw quiet, looking at you. To your side, Chizuru is still unconscious.

You position yourself between yourself and Chizuru, ready to protect her. However, they’ve yet to make any hostile movements. Maybe diplomacy would work?

"I'm Kurosaki Ichigo...who're you. I didn't mean to intrude if this is your home...but my friend and I are injured and don't belong in this world...we'll be gone...and mean no harm...but I will defender her and myself if need be,"

The humanoid and female hollow walks towards you, staring you in the eyes. “I see no deceit in your eyes or words, but you are a shinigami. Why are you protecting this girl who feels like a hollow?”

You shake your head. “Reason? She’s my friend. That’s all the reason I need.”

As you stare anxiously as the hollow, she nods her head and turns towards her companions. “Tier Harribel, Kurosaki Ichigo. That is my name.”

You stare at her back but don’t do anything. The other three seem to be watching you closely before Harribel nods her head. “You can rest until your friend is well. If you act against my comrades, though…”

She swings her sword-like arm, indicating what will happen.

I guess we do at this point. We won't be sleeping though. Keep an eye out for them, maybe ask why she's fairly humanoid for a Hollow.

And what did she mean that Chizuru is a Hollow?
>>
>>26003312
Yeah, let's trust them. THey seem cool.

> if there are more sentient hollows like them
We know holloss are generally sentient - Grand Fisher, bugbomb, etc. They just tend to be comically evil.
>>
>>26003312
>nevermind then

>Trust?
Yes.
They haven't killed or devoured our souls yet, so they're obviously different from the average hollow.

I don't see why we can't trust them- we don't have much of a choice.

...wait, did she just say Chizuru feels like a Hollow?

>>26003327
Yep

At one point Matsumoto has a flash back to Gin feeding her some fruit right? Well when Gin lays dying he flashes back to the moment leading up to that. Or the fruit thing coulda been Matsumoto finding Gin and helping him been a while so my memory is hazy but yeah, Gin takes revenge for his one friend.

Aizen has his men stealing power from peasants (and possibly y'know other stuff) and one of the victims happens to be Matsumoto, Gin finds her and helps her. This then leads to Gin actively being a demonic little shite i.e. killing a seated member of his squad to get Aizens attention/trust etc.

I thought that was a re-tread of Rukia's entry into SS.
Remember: Souls with spirit potential need to eat, and SS is a ghetto where most spirits only eat for pleasure and when they can afford it.
You DO mean the scene where they were kids, right?

You nod your head. "My father taught me to never bear ill will towards those that show kindness towards you…

"Thank you, Tier Harribel"

She gives a nod before moving to the opposite side of the room as she and her companions leave. “We will return.”

You nod and check on Chizuru again. She’s not doing much better and the black markings on her skin seem permanent. However, she’s still alive… you settle back down and sleep some more, reluctantly.

>14

You feel like you’re at maybe a third of your strength when you wake up. The hollows are back, making small talk amongst themselves. After checking on Chizuru, you take a moment to ask them something.

“"Pardon me for asking, but have you noticed any other anomalous people in the past two weeks?

The soul of a woman, older than me, would most likely feel like a human, but may have traces of hollow or even shinigami?"

Harribel and the snake, Sung-sun, shake their heads as you let out a depressed sigh. The deer, Apacci, and the lion, Mila Rose, seem to be ignoring you. Sung-sun looks at you. “Why is a shinigami here anyway?”

You shake your head. “I’m not one, not really. I was just a normal human less than two weeks ago.”

The deer snorts. “Yeah, right. Don’t give me that bullshit.”

The snake shakes her head. “His eyes don’t lie, Apacci. That is what he believes.”

The deer looks away, ignoring you again. Harribel gives a shrug. “Kurosaki Ichigo, take no offense, but the only reason why I’m allowing you here is that you are resolutely guarding your friend. We female hollows, especially the adjuchas, suffer greatly at the hands of the males. That is why we travel in groups and I have not attacked you.

“I have no interest in gaining power through the sacrifices of others.”

>any response?

"My own zanpaktou vowed that if I ever disrespected the lives and feelings of my friends, if I ever treated my comrades as pawns, that he would kill me.

And I thanked him for making that promise."
>>
>>26003681
>Any response?

"And I only wish to protect my friends and keep them safe. Though, I don't know what is afflicting my friend here. You said that you sensed her as a Hollow, but she was just as human as me. What do you mean by that?"
>>
>>26003681

"That is an admirable philosophy. Since gaining my powers, the only Hollows I have encountered in the living world were consumed with hunger, violence, and selfish desire...well, except for my Hollow"

If pressed on that, display mask. Explain 3 way hybrid nature.
>>
>>26003681
Well I'm glad to have met you then. Out of curiosity have you met any shinigami who wear hollow masks? And is there anyway for you to eat that isn't at the expense of others? I really appreciate the place to stay so I'd like to help out if there was a way I could.

I kinda like this, maybe with a few minor alterations to sound less aggressive.

I would like to manifest myself against putting our mask though. Her main problem seems to be that we are male, not merely that we are a Shinigami.

Let's at least do some more small talk first.
>>
>>26003681
"Funny thing, that.
You and my sword have the same philosophy.
But no, really; you would not believe the shit I've been through these last weeks- The consequences of which would be why we're here in the first place."

It's Ichigo. He's direct as a Cero to the face.

>>26003681
Agree with her sentiment. Those who exploit others (like Aizen) have no dignity.

Also, attempt to enter Jizen and check up on the Super Zangetsu Bros when we have a moment. We need to check if they're okay.

>>26003779
What, no.

Not until she becomes an Arrancar at least.

As it is, the atmosphere of Hueco Mundo is likely sustaining them to some extent.

"I'm not looking for a sacrifice to gain power. Not long ago I ran into the hollow that killed my mother, trying to distract me once he realized I out matched him he told me that her soul was intact hidden in hueco mundo.

>>26003758
Yeah, ask her to clarify if Chizuru is in the process of becoming a hollow, already is a hollow, or just feels like one.

>respect, she’s got it

You give her a nod.

“And I have no interest in the people I care about suffering. I like your style.”

Harribel looks at you curiously. “Oh?”

You give her a smile.

"That really is an admirable philosophy. Since gaining my powers, the only Hollows I have encountered in the living world were consumed with hunger, violence, and selfish desire...well, except for my Hollow.. But more importantly, you said my friend felt like a hollow?

“I don't know what is afflicting my friend here. You said that you sensed her as a Hollow, but she was just as human as me. What do you mean by that?”

Harribel closes her eyes and crosses her arms. “I meant that. When I found you both, I felt the reiatsu of a hollow coming from her. Though, now, it has changed. Into what, even I do not know.”

You look at Chizuru, biting your lip.

You look at her. “Thank you for your help, but I have to try to get her home. See if someone can help.”

You shake her again, trying to wake her, but there’s no response. "I know of a man who is willing to sacrifice others for power...he turned a woman I would fall in love with into a suicide weapon...he is the reason I'm part hollow...his experiments and plans...its nice to learn that not all Hollows are monsters...its comforting when I know some Shinigami are,"

You put your hand to your face and pull it down, creating your mask. It feels different though. Harder to control but you grit your teeth and manage it. Harribel lets out a gasp. “A shinigami with a hollow’s mask?”

The other hollows tense, but as you move to create the gargantuan, successfully, you feel it.

Not a shinigami, but close. But also entirely a hollow. It's strong and coming fast. A deadly intent you can see aimed right and entirely at the hollows in front of you.

…You can leave now, but you’d be leaving them to fend for themselves.

You close your eyes. "Shit, something's coming. Something strong. I'm at less than half power. You can come with me and I swear I'll get you home later, or I can stay and fight with you. It's the least I can do after you helped us out."

“No, Kurosaki Ichigo. I told you, I have no interest in gaining power by sacrificing others. I am a Vasto Lorde class Menos Grande. My very presence will kill people in your world. Go, take her and be safe. We will survive.”

The gargantuan closes. You look down at Chizuru regretfully and set her down. You still have work to do.

Turing towards Harribel, you gesture towards the opening. “I’m not sacrificing you all. You saved me, so I’m fighting with you.”

She gives you a surprised look as you feel the presence incoming and hear… static?

>what do you do?

Bringing them with us will do nothing but piss everyone off.

"Its started doing something to mess with my sixth sense...lets go take the fight to it before it can wreck your home,"
>>
>>26004409
Maybe it will be weaker because he doesn't have the complete version?

Like Aizen had his hair slicked back when he showed up to save the day, which means it happened after he officially went rogue.
>>
Well, time to help them fight. Pull no stops, because if we read the presence right, it's capable of stomping on us quite easily.

Also, hide Chizuru if we can. If it's one of Aizen's, it might be better just to not totally reveal her. Actually, it might be better if we start hidden, and if they don't defuse the situation, try to hit him with a sneak attack.

Get the hell out of the cave. Being stuck in a dead end against an unknown force? Hahahaha no. Besides I'm fucking terrified that Chizuru will wake up halfway through the fight and murder us all.
>>
>what do you do?

The presence draws closer as it talks down the stairs. it’s a humanoid hollw… or is it? Its mask is cracked as its human mouth smiles cruelly. “I’ve found you, Harribel. Things are changing here in Hueco Mundo. That means those like you need to go.”

The snake gives a whisper. “A cracked mask!”

His smile grows. “That’s right. As an Arrancar, I have surpassed even the Vasto Lorde!”

>He hasn’t seemed to notice you yet, action?
>>
>>26004476
We just put Chizuru in danger because of our pride. Nice job guys.

>>26004590

You narrow your eyes as you flood your body with blut Arterie and shunpo forward. You move faster than he can react and bring the sword down, carving through some of his head and torso, mirroring the scar already on his shark-like head.

He screams in agony as he looks at you. “HOW DARE YOU!”

A strong spiritual pressure is beginning to bear down on the area, causing the animal-like hollows to freeze up. Chizuru is also still in the room. This isn’t good!

You narrow your eyes and kick him, sending him flying backwards out of the cave and pursue as he writes in agony and hatred.

You go to cut of his head, but his arm comes up and blocks you. You see the three hollows come out, Chizuru on apacci’s back, fleeing, as Haribel appears next to you, swinging with her sword-arm. However, he blocks that too.

“Hah. You might’ve sneak attacked me, but I’m aware now. You aren’t getting past my Hierro now!”

Light gathers in his hand into a spear shape.

I don't know... We didn't roll anything to counter that 19. At the same time the damage from a one might be really bad.
>>
>>26005032
...Um... we got a 1.

By definition, that's our worst.

Also, fortune has turned against us.

Welp, it's time. And no need to use the crit canceller right now, thanks to a helpful 20.
>>
>>26005041
It seems like if we counter that 1, both Harribel and us rolled 15 against his 19.

Which shouldn't be enough to kill us?
>>
>>26005055

Then let us negate that failure.
>>
>>26005062
Thanks to our mask, only the first five posts matter.

So no dice.
>>
>>26005040
its not a disadvantage. we roll the same number of dice it just lowers the chance of a one slipping through to fuck us over
>>
>>26005061
we're nowhere near the level of the power where we can just start tanking shit like nothing

Impressive.
>>
>>26005100
I'm afraid that i don't see any advantage to that system then. It would very slightly decrease the chance of having multiples of the same crit and will (presumably) favor the 20 over the 1 if both are rolled in the same post. Neither of those will have any meaningful effect on the odds.

Energy explodes, crashing into you. Your mask starts to crack. However, you aren’t done yet!


>20, 20
>19
>v18
Pulling energy into your attack you let loose a point blank Getsuga Tenshou into his arm, severing it. Haribel follow this up by sending him flying with her sword arm. In the dust, however, a red light is growing.

What are you even talking about?

With the mask on we get 6 "normal" dice, with crits coming from the first 10.

Without the mask, we only get 3 "normal" dice, with crits still coming from the first 10.

You mask is cracking, but his attention is taken as he’s stabbed through by Harribel. You take that moment to cut off his head.

“No. You won’t.”

As he fades, Harribel looks down at you, with an unreadable expression.

Do Arrancar have a sex-drive? We should make Haribels entire gang into Honsho's lesbian harem.

Also before leaving we should tell her to watch out for Aize.

>>26005443

Nah. If he wasn't taken out, he probably would've gone for her and/or her girls next. We did good. She's probably curious about us being a Shinagami/Hollow.
>>

>>
>>26005431

That is either a good expression or a bad expression.

>>26005453
We actively didn't if I remember correctly. We were punches, kicks, energy blasts, and disarming attempts. Heck, we tried to knock him into Mexico and it didn't work.
>>
>>26005457
I think we already did.

Also, we probably need to wait another day now, for our power to recover.

He may be watching to see what Chizuru does with the Plot Rock when she wakes up. Which will be interesting...what does the Hogyoku do to a person with no concept of what it is, it is transforming her into something of her own desire? Will it warp those immediately around her.

Chizuru doesn't want power to be a god, she wants to protect her friends and get some sweet tail after loosing her favorite crush to Kurosaki.

Given our current company all have actual tales, that amuses me more than it really should.

The simple fact that we kept up with her is impressive enough, considering she's a Vasto Lorde.

You usually don't find fighters of that level just lying around in random caves, so I imagine she's a bit surprised.
