Hey spooky!

He takes off his helmet and casually tucks it under his armpit.
You aren't sure what exactly you were expecting but it was not this.
The man actually looks quite normal with a few exceptions, his hair is like a long black mane flowing freely in the wind, his eyes have an unnaturally yellow color with a thin vertical pupil, his mask fragment covers the entirety of his lower jaw and his face has quite a few nasty looking scars.

He takes a bite out of the fruit and almost immediately spits it out.
"Now I remember why I never ate these things.
Tastes like shit."
With that he puts his helmet back on.

He begins to casually walk up to you and you can see the rest of the Espada rising from their seats and line up in front of him.
They are all nervous at his appearance.
Aaroniero then signals them and they clear the area to show off you and Neliel.
"Marr, these are Kaizar Soize and Neliel Tu Odelschwanck the new Espada."

He stops in his tracks and starts eyeing the two of you.
Marr whistles after looking over Neliel.
"Niiice.
Finally we have an actual woman and not just these bitches!"

The female Séptima Espada, that you only presume is Amas, gets offended by this.
"What did this oaf just call me?!"

Almost without any signal or build-up Marr twitches once and then his neck twists to look at her and then Amas, after realizing what she just said, seemingly closed her mouth.
At first it didn't even register what she just did since it happened so fast.
But after thinking it over you realize what was that she actually did, she bit her own tongue on purpose.
Blood begins to trickle from the side of her mouth but she doesn't do anything instead she just stands there like a statue clearly mortified.

Marr then turns his attention from her to you.
He puts his hand on his chin as he looks you over much closer than he did with Neliel.
Without a warning he grabs your head with two of his large fingers and begins turning your head left and right.

You are so confused right now.
At first you didn't get why everyone was so afraid of him since he barely has any reiatsu, in fact it was much lower than that of a common gillian.
But you were enlightened when he grabbed your head and you felt his tremendous strength.
Just by feeling his touch you managed to realize that if he wanted to he could crush your head with only those two fingers, probably without much effort.
This man is a monster.

After finishing your examination he lets go of you and leaves your personal space.
"Now this is more like it!
I was a bit disappointed at first but I see what's going on.
And it's about time we got some actual power in here.
I was getting tired carrying all this dead weight all by myself!"
He begins to laugh.

He turns away from you and sits on the table which creaks and bends under his impressive weight.
"So...
Which one of you was the one who curb stomped lil' No. 10 outside?"
His tone shifted from a more casual one to a completely serious one.
You can feel his bloodlust practically oozing from him.

>Say nothing.
>Say nothing but raise your hand.
>Tell him that you did it and you'd do it again.
>"You have some manners, coming to our home and demanding things from us."
>Other? (Write-in)

>>47971444
>>"You have some manners, coming to our home and demanding things from us."

Hey spooky!

>>47971436
>walk backwards and away from the scary guy to safe distence

>>47971444
>>Tell him that you did it and you'd do it again.

>>47971444
>> raise your hand.
We know each other and do this pretty regularly

>>47971444
>> raise your hand.
>> This may sound undignified, but she totally started it.

>>47971444
>Say nothing but raise your hand. Nonchlantly.
Let's not provoce things.

Hey Spooky!

>>47971444
>"Now this is more like it! I was a bit disappointed at first but I see what's going on.

Looks like he managed to see through Kaizars mucus absorption trick pretty easily. Careful, Marr is much more than just a simple brute.

Hand raising wins.

>Writing.

You don't want things to escalate.
After all, who knows how will this maniac react to you?
So rather than denying anything you casually raise your hand up in the air and start gritting your teeth, just in case.

It's hard to read his more subtle movements with all that armor obscuring him but you guess that he just glanced at you.
"So...
It was you, huh?"

You lower your hand.
"Yes."

He stands up and the heavy table creaks once more now that all the pressure is gone.
Marr walks up dangerously close to you and looks down at you.
The giant then raises his lower arm, his fist clenched tightly.

You were not sure just what he was going to do, so you simply braced for impact.
After closing your eyes you made peace with yourself.
But after waiting for several seconds without anything happening you opened your eyes out of curiosity.
To your surprise his fist is still aimed at you but it doesn't move.

"Come on!
Don't leave me hangin'!"
He says in his ominous tone.

You look at him confused as all Hell.
Without knowing how to react you simply extend your own arm, fist clenched, and you bump your fists together.

Marr gives a satisfying groan and returns your act by pulling his fist back slightly and gently pushing it against yours.
"Hell yeah!
That's what I'm talkin' about!"

Your confusion didn't leave you, in fact you are more perplexed than before.
Partly because of this mans weird attitude and partly because with that gentle "bump" he just did he almost ripped out your arm from its socket and now the entire thing just feels numb.

Marr turns away from you and looks at the other Espada.
"I like this guy!
Why didn't you guys tell me that we have someone actually worth a damn amongst us now?"

Aaroniero is the one who speaks up.
"We all agreed it'd be for the best if you judged him yourself."

Marr begins laughing.
"Finally someone put that uppity lil' bitch in her place!
Seriously I was getting real tired of beating the shit out of her."

>>47971730
HARDCORE MUTHAFUKKIN' GANGSTA

>>47971730
We should ask marr about his life. And actual name, perhaps. This "fist bumping" must be some kind of ancient tradition, it definitely wasn't around in nazi germany.

>>47971730
>>47971799
How much you wanna bet he's Greek and they worshipped him as a God of war.

>>47971833
And the Romans worshipped him after that. Using a closer name no less.

The towering monster casually walks over to a large boulder sticking out of the ground, covered in moss and rips it out.
He throws the rock over his shoulder and brings it to the table.
After giving it some thought it made sense, the chairs you had would probably not be able to hold him.
Marr then slams the rock into the ground and sits down on it, taking his rightful place at the end of the table.

The other Espada all seem to relax and start whispering amongst themselves.
"Looks like he is in a good mood today."
Dordoni whispers it to Sanderwicci who nods in agreement.

Aaroniero clears his throat and addresses the Primera once more.
"Marr, you said that you come here.
What changed your mind?"

Marr then proceeds to kick his legs onto the table then folds his arms.
"Well I was lookin' for some Menos buuuut then I got bored after a while.
So I decided to check things out, I even found a small town on my way here, that was fun."

That got Neliels attention.
He was probably referring to your "neighbors", the town which you managed to save once from complete destruction.
And while it's true that they are still far away from your camp and many of them migrated to Vanaheim in the last few years it was still a pretty large encampment for a hollow village.
"What do you mean by fun?"
She asks.

"Hmmmm?
I removed the whole thing from the landscape of course!
Why? What else could I have done with it?"

Neliel glares daggers at him, she was never fond of unnecessary killing.
"There was no reason to do that, they were peaceful and weak."

"Yeah...
That's the point.
You have to remove the trash from your land if you want anything to grow on it.
They were fuckin' weak and someone might show up there now that the place is vacant."

Neliel simply sighs, even she comprehends the destructive potential of this man and that it's best not to agitate him.
She then shifts her attention to the other Espada.
"So...
What will be our task now that we are a part of your army?"

>>47971799
>Fist bumping first shown 1937
>First used commonly by someone 1950
kaizar wouldn't know because he's out of touch. Marr must frequent the human world to observe evolving culture.

>>47971885
There's gonna be an influx of hollows on October 19th 1987 due to the Black Monday stock market crash. Suicide plusses are likely to have chains or succumb to despair.

Aaroniero entwines his fingers and leans forward.
It seems that being the highest ranking Espada other than Marr leaves him in charge for the time being.
"I'd enlighten you if you allow me.
Our orders come directly from Master Aizen and so far the only command he gave us is this:
Find hollows with the potential to make them a part of our army, preferably Vasto Lorde but lesser Menos are fine as well.
There's just one restriction, nobody goes alone.
This is to assure no Espada will be killed even by accident, the only exception from this rule is Marr."

"'Sup!"
Marr raises his hand.

Neliel interjects.
"We can take care of ourselves."

"There's no doubt about that.
But the orders were clear, everyone goes out in pairs in case they come across someone with strange abilities.
There are only ten of us, so we must take every precaution while we are still growing."
He turns to face you.
"The two of you can pair up if you so desire but I'd ask you to choose someone lower ranking as we need to properly divide our forces."

You put your hand on your chin and start thinking.
>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
>Stay here at the base to manage things.
>Other? (write-in)

>>47971978

>>47971978
Recon
Go with...marr, we're the only one who can remotely stay alive when interacting with him, and he seems really chill. He's probably lonely without a partner, too.

Besides, ten espada makes it so that one person wouldn't have a second partner, if we count escamas as one person.

>>47971978
>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
Anyone but Aimee, We do need to actually get work done.

>>47971978
>>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
Go with Dordoni.

>>47971978
>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
We should go with marr, we need to understand how he works and he seems to like us more than the other espada.

>>47971978
>>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
Go with Marr, he seems chill, and is probably tired of literally everyone ever being terrified of him

>>47972010
>>47972030
>>47972047
Unless he volunteers for it I'd rather not. Dude seems very My way, my style, or else. And they've said this is one of his "good" days.

>>47971985
Holy fuck, those are a lot more deaths than the two atomic bombs that dropped.

>>47971978
>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
Go with Neliel

>>47971978
>>Go with the recon team and look for hollows.
Dorodoni, or not Mar.

You only pick what you want to do now.
The vote for a partner comes later.

>>47972056
I guess you've got a point. If we can potentially run into Haribel or Stark, we'd want someone chill, really.

I'll swap>>47972047
to going with Dordoni

The recon team wins.

>Writing

How apropo that I'm drinking a nice sweet Dornfelder whilst reading this.

Now that you think about it this'd be the perfect opportunity to recruit some people, not for Aizen but for yourself.
If you can get to some potentially powerful allies first then you could make them loyal to you instead.
You grin a little.
"Okay, I'm fine with that.
So who wants to team up with me?"

Aaroniero speaks up once more.
"I think we talked enough about business.
Besides I think it'd be better if you asked someone personally.
You are the Segunda and we accept your authority."
He looks at Esca and Amas.
"Even if begrudgingly."

Marr then stands up from his seat.
"Not me though.
And I think I wasted enough time here."
He reaches up to one of the lower hanging fruits and plucks one of them.
"I think I'll go and throw this into lil' Barrys face or shove it up his ass, I haven't decided yet."

Neliels eyes widen.
"You said he was the one who destroyed all plants four thousand years ago!"

"Yeah, so?"

"Wouldn't it enrage him if you did that?"

"That's the point, duh..."

She frowns.
"And you'd have to get past his army to do that."

Judging from his voice Marr is getting annoyed.
"Again...
So?
This won't be the first nor the last time I put that runt in his place."

Something catches your attention.
"You keep referring to him as "runt" and other such things."
Your expression gets considerably more serious.
"Just how old are you?"

Marr gives you a grin which almost reaches from ear to ear.
With such a clear view you see that his teeth are not normal instead they resemble Aimees much more than a regular persons.
He gives a bellowing laugh and the other Espada give you a grim look.
"Some questions better remain unanswered amigo..."
Dordoni gives you a pitying look.

After calming down Marr starts to speak.
"I hate numbers but this one I looooove.
Every time I say it you maggots all make the best faces.
So I'll humor you before I leave."
He walks close to you and leans to your ear.
Marr whispers two words.
After he says it your mouth opens in shock.

>>47972233
He whispered "Four hundred and ten billion years..."

Or, if we want to be less funny, one million probably. He's a hollow dinosaur

Your mouth keeps hanging and you struggle to keep yourself together.
Marr instead laughs uncontrollably while the other Espada are giving you the typical "I told you so" look.
Neliel didn't hear it so she is oblivious to the shock that you experienced.
"What's wrong Kaizar?
What did he say?"

Marr keeps laughing at you.
"Priceless!"
He says as he flicks your hat, annihilating it in the process.
The Primera begins walking away and gives you a backhanded wave.
"Well I'm off.
You losers can keep frolicking in the forest all you want, I'm gonna go kill shit now."

As he walks off you keep struggling with breathing.
Beads of sweat begin to roll down from your forehead.
You manage to repeat his words.
"Sixty-six million..."

>>47972233
>"I'm gay"

>>47972264

>>47972298
I'm like 90% sure that the only reason Fullbringers work is because EVERYTHING has a soul. Like, their fast movement thing works by using the grounds soul or some shit

>>47972343
>Implying there ever was a meteor
>Implying Marr didn't just eat every living dinosaur to achieve vasto lord

>>47972358
That's a disturbing possibility.

>>47972343
Pretty sure you had to be a living being to become a hollow, but the real thing to take from this is that there are ancient dinosaur hollows still kicking around well at least one is

I was wondering, just now: why don't hollows hunt in the beast realm? There are VERY few shinigami there except those who are banished, so the resistance would only be from untrained animal souls. Might not be as individually filling, but animal souls are trillions of trillions more numerous than human souls.

>>47972391
No, what to take from this is that if there's dinosaur HOLLOWS then the reverse is likely true. Which means there's some dinosaur shinigami just lying around somewhere, unless Marr ate all of them too.

It took roughly half an hour to calm down both your and Neliels nerves.
Then the feast that you organized finished mostly in silence, nobody felt like talking anymore.
After finishing your plate you look at the others.
"Was he serious?"

Dordoni looks at you.
"It's impossible to tell.
But he never lies, he sees no point in it.
That and his monstrous strength makes it hard to doubt what he said."

"What about his Resurección?"
You ask.

"Nobody has ever seen it and lived to tell about it."
Aaroniero interjects.
"There's only one documented case of him ever using it and the place is uninhabitable ever since.
There's an eternally raging storm which tears your flesh off if you stray too close to it and it appeared after Marr used his resurrected form."

You have to wonder just what kind of power this monster has.
But then it hits you.
"How does Aizen keep him under control?"

"He doesn't have to, he came to us willingly.
But he has Kyōka Suigetsu which manages to control him to a degree."

You look at what's left of your hat, namely nothing.
"And is he always so...
Temperamental?"

"You have no idea.
It's usually way worse.
The only one whom he doesn't bother much is Wang Lan.
She sometimes tries to educate him but he has a very short attention span for anything other than fighting."

You look at Lan who for the first time removed her hoodie.
She doesn't look like what you imagined at all.

She actually speaks up.
"He's not bad once you know how he works..."

"Easy for you to say niña.
You are the only one he hasn't beaten to a pulp yet."

She shrugs.
"I didn't give him a reason to beat me up."

But after all of this is done and you managed to recover from that cold shower it's time to get to business.

Isn't OMG basically a dragon, with his release and shit? And don't shinigami change shape depending on their mentality, like when they feel old they look old?

>>47972823
You're forgetting that the only reason Fisher killed Ichi's mom was because Yhwach sucked most of her soul out and all of her Quincy powers before they fought. That would have killed her too, it'd just have been slow and drawn out instead of quick.

You can't help but stare at Lan.
Apparently she is somewhat capable of handling Marr and that'd be a useful thing to have.
It'd also be a good idea to observe each of the Espada to determine their abilities, there are only three that you still don't know and she'll probably be the easiest one to figure out due to her rank.

So you stand up and walk up to her.
"Want to be partners?"

Her expression shifts to a neutral one and simply nods.
It seems she returned to her deadpan state.
She stands up an pulls her hoodie over her head once more.

You turn to the other Espada to ask them a question.
"I assume it's not a problem that we'll be first since we'll rotate our shifts."

Dordoni just nonchalantly dismisses you.
"You can do whatever you want amigo."

You turn to Lang this time.
"Wait here, I'll have to do something first."

It took only a few minutes to find Yata at his lab, the guy disappeared really quickly during the feast.
He is tinkering on random stuff you presume.
"I have a favor to ask..."
You say to him.

He sighs and looks over at his shoulder.
"What did you break this time?"

"I lost my hat."

"Well go and find it."

"I don't think it exists anymore."

After giving you a judging look he starts to rummage through some of his stuff to pull out a vial which he smashes on his table.
The white substance begins to create a foam into which he injects several tools, all developed by him.
When it's done a completely new and differently styled hat pops out.
Though it's still a german in design it doesn't resemble the one worn by the SS, instead it looks like the more common wool caps worn in the military.
He hands you your new headwear while still looking at you extremely disappointed.

You fiddle around with it and find the hat to be a perfect fit.
"What was the matter with the last design?"
You ask him.

"This one is easier to make.
And I don't want to hear any complaints or I take it back!"

You smirk a little.
"And what's with the military motif?"

>>47972859
>>47972909
She might be strong enough to survive having her power nommed actually.

>>47972923
Given other people on her level aren't? I doubt it.

Speaking of dieing woman is best girl Quincy still kicking around spooky?

>>47973016
>Quincy
>Best girl
Dude, she's already married and has a kid, and even if she wasn't, she's still a Quincy, and that's not even going into the fact that she no longer has her powers after doing that angel wing what'sitname power up. Plus, she already had an epilogue like, 4 or 5 threads ago. Have you even been paying attention?

"Are you perhaps suggesting something, Yata?"

"No suggestions, I just know my kind when I see one.
That's why I assumed the nazi outfits would fit you."

"Your kind?
Last time I checked we were nothing alike."

"Does Unit 731 ring a bell?"

"I mostly have blurry memories of my past.
But I faintly recall hearing about it at some point."

"You and I aren't too different.
We both committed crimes against humanity but in different ways and amounts."

You smile a little.
"I trust that my past is safe with you."

"As long as mine is with you."

You wave your friend a goodbye to find your new partner who is still waiting for you at the gathering area.
Wang Lan is still waiting for you at the exact spot you left her, she didn't even move an inch.
"Sorry for waiting.
Ready?"

"Yes."

As the two of you walk out you wave to your friends before you disappear with a sonído.
Lan is lagging behind you to your great displeasure.
You'd rather have her leading you since you have no idea about where to go.

You turn your head around to talk to her.
"So, where should we start looking?"

Lan then points upward.
"The surface."

You create a platform and jump upward with all the power that you can muster and Lan follows suit.
You penetrate the upper floor easily and you arrive to the surface.

"It doesn't change much around here."

She nods in agreement.

The journey was mostly uninteresting as any sane Menos roaming around steers clear of you.
This is mostly Lans fault as she is incapable of suppressing her reiatsu like you.
You begin scratching the back of your head.
"I'm not used to drawing so much attention."

"Sorry."
She pauses a little.
"How do you do it?"

You look at the petite girl walking next to you confused.
"It's just my special ability.
It's useful."

But she doesn't reply.

After another hour of nothing happening the silence is getting unbearable again.
You have to talk about something.
"So, what's the deal with Marr?"

Huh. I just realized. Is Wang lan the yachiru to Marrs' Kenpachi?

>>47973139
So, question, Spooky.

We still got nanohollows, but less and simply in our insides.

Are they still strengthening us, our insides, like they were in Vasto form? But simply more slowly?

>>47973171
Pretty sure he answered this before with a yes.
But now we also get GAINZ by training.

I wonder what Marr would think of some modern amenities. Portable music players, video games, high definition color television.

>inb4 he actually likes RTS games because the idea of watching tons of little worthless mooks dying amuses him

But he probably wouldn't have time for any of that shit, too busy murdering everything to death.

"I mean, how do you deal with him?
He seems... problematic."

She shrugs.
"He's a simple man.
He's straightforward, if you do something he doesn't like you'll know it.
I don't have problems with him because I don't do anything most of the time.
He likes me because I don't make him mad like others do."

"He just seemed confusing to me.
I thought he was going to kill me for attacking Aimee back there."

"If you keep doing what you did he won't.
If you do something than take responsibility for it.
He hates cowards and people who don't know their place the most.
He's about survival of the fittest, that's him."

That got you thinking.
"Then why does he serve Aizen like that?"

"The Master is strong.
Marr wanted to kill him at first but after seeing how strong he is he changed his mind."

"But why?
He could have left."

"He follows Master Aizen because he'll challenge the world itself.
And Marr just wants a piece of the action."

You look away from her and at the horizon.
"So he just wants war..."

"Yes."

You are lucky you packed rations as you marched for days without finding anything.
But suddenly the two of you stop.

Lan keeps staring forward.
"Strong."

"Yeah..."

There are several powerful signals coming from the distance.
They probably haven't noticed you yet as both of your Pesquisas are quite refined.
How do you want to approach them?

>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.
>Loud and flashy, assert dominance.
>Sneak up using your camouflage.
>Other? (write-in)

>>47973323
>Sneak up using your camouflage.

>>47973323
>Loud and flashy, assert dominance.

>>47973323
>>Sneak up using your camouflage.

>>47973323
>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.
Gonna be pissed if it's Harribel, I reaaaally don't care for the people going "Muh Harribel!".

>>47973323
>>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.
Why hello Tier.

>>47973323
>>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.
Diplomacy ho!

>>47973323
>>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.

>>47973323
>>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.

>>47973308
He'd probably be curious about it but quickly become bored of it. but who knows?

>>47973323
>Sneak up using your camouflage

>>47973323
>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.

We are not barbarians, let's be civil.

>>47973323
>Walk up casually, you don't want trouble.

>>47973341
>Gonna be pissed if it's Harribel, I reaaaally don't care for the people going "Muh Harribel!".
I don't want to recruit her for a while so we can give Nelliel more training time. Still annoyed she didn't go Vasto.

>>47973412
Recruiting Harribel and Neliel training aren't mutually exclusive. if anything, Harribel, or any other arrancar we recruit now, could probably help Neliel train better considering at the moment we are literally the ONLY PERSON in the forest capable of challenging her.

I mean, even if it's Stark, anyone would be good if training is what you want.

>>47973465
Oh, I just want to give Nelliel a head start in comparison to Harribel.

>>47973465
Man I hope it's Starrk, He's great.

>>47973496
Honestly, one of the reasons I dislike Neliel is because she immediately jumped on the Aizen's Amazing Arrancar Association bandwagon without even considering a thing because MUH FRIENDS. We totally could've helped her become vasto, but nope, she needed loadsa power, right now.

>>47973511
t.bh I just want Stark/Haribel on our side and that's all. They're the best arrancars imo. Plus, Lilynette, Alex, and Ascher would be great together.

>>47973511
>Hey, you aren't dead.
>Nope.
>...
>... want to go get a beer?
>... yeah, sure.

>>47973535

Eh, Nel is pretty much equal to us despite not going Vasto, therefore i doubt going Vasto before arrancarizing would have actually made her much stronger.

>>47973535
Yeah, that just fuckin ruined Nel for me.

Goddammit she essentially betrayed us and thus pressured us into going Arrancar when first told to

>>47973571
The thing is, she trained so much that why she is so strong now.

That and she would have more power if she was Vasto due to being more human then. Yata said that

>Writing

>>47973571
She, as an Adjuchas, was roughly equal to us, non-Assault mode, as an Adjuchas. Going vasto is a massive powerboost as a normal hollow, and Arrancar is a boost above that, it'd have been a pretty big deal if she'd gone vasto first, which is why Aizen makes it a point to search out mostly vasto.

I mean, remember when we first went vasto and literally everyone in the forest *felt* it? There's a reason vastos are a pretty big deal.

>>47973577
I told you. Rale rood.

Love you spooky.

>>47973625
That doesn't mean that an adjucas arrancar could never become stronger than a Vasto arrancar though. I mean, Aaroniero's a Gillian and he's certainly stronger than most adjucas arrancar.

NOW!

Is our Assault Mode gonna be a Segunda Etapa or a separate thing?

Because if latter, then holy fuck we gonna rock Marr

>>47973676
Powerlevels are bullshit. Also arbitrary. Don't worry about it.

>>47973676
It's not a matter of "they can't ever become more powerful" because they can, through training. But it's the kind of thing like in dragonball krillin could feasibly train to be as tough as goku despite being a human, but can never beat him in Z. There's a plateau for non-protagonists, and going vasto would've raised the bar for her.

I'm pretty sure most, if not all, non-vasto Arrancar either jobbed or were generally not very tough in Bleach. There's a reason people usually only ever remember Haribel, Stark, and Barragan.

Or maybe I'm just dumb and this is my opinion on a character that effectively chose the easy way forward when the price was being Aizens slave when we were practically yelling "YO SENPAI THIS SHIT IS A BAD IDEA" and effectively forced us into the serving Aizen path. Feel free to ignore me, really. I'm just talking out my ass.

>>47973780
to be fair, we aren't Aizen's slave, as we tore off our own mask. We just aren't powerful enough to go against him yet.

>>47973780
Worst part?

Spooky confirmed on Ask that we could have convinced Aizen to wait, let us attempt to go further, without him being pissy or blackmailing us.

He would have been okay with our idea

>>47973818
I know that, but still. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth that someone who was basically one of our what, five(?) or so friends would jump at the bit to become Aizens slave just so she could stop eating hollows. Especially when we basically just solved that problem with, y'know, actual food.

She basically took the quick and easy way out that came with an "AIZENS BITCH" collar to solve a problem that functionally no longer existed.

>>47973849

Spooky also said that there was an element of risk involved since Aizen could also have decided to destroy Kaiser and his associates if that happened.

At any rate, what's done is done.

>>47973872
Don't forget that her accpeting that deal is what prompted her two bozos to accept the deal, and per pressured OUR two bozos to take the deal. FFS man, imagine if we got Pesci or Alex to vasto before that? Imagine Pesci's bullshit at that level, or Alex's Flash bullshittery she could pull.

Ah well, what's done is done. At this point all We can do is try to impress upon any vastos or bro-tier people we run into to pull off their own masks instead of letting Aizen do it. Make sure Harribel knows not to trust Aizen, and make sure that Stark gets some actual friends in Vanaheim, since his friends coming under attack is one of the few things that would get him off his ass.

>>47973849
Even worse part.

It was confirmed before thread where we had to decide went live. Way before.

The decision just happened when plenty of arrancarfags were around.

You don't make this kind of decision at start of thread. You make it near the end

You look at Lan who is clearly ready to engage them despite still having her usual deadpan expression.
On her side is what you assume to be her weapon but it's impossible to tell exactly what it is since it's wrapped in so much cloth it looks like an oval bundle of bandages.

She looks at you.
"What do I do Segunda?"
She asks your orders in recognition of your position.

You look into the distance.
Your targets aren't moving, this must mean that they have a camp of sorts but it's still not visible from where you are standing.
You button up your trenchcoat completely, covering up your mouth.
"It's Kaizar and just follow me.
We are looking for recruits, not enemies."
You glance at her, she is still looking at you expecting more orders.
"But keep your weapon ready.
Just in case."

She nods and then pulls her hoodie tighter.

The two of you begin your walk.
While you are still suppressing your power Lans reiatsu is still unchecked.
It's better this way, at least then they'll be aware that you are coming.

As you are getting closer your readings are getting better and better.
At first you felt a single reiatsu in the distance but as it turns out it was blurring out a few weaker ones.
And it seems that they probably noticed Wang as their reiatsu began fluctuating.

"Panic?"
You speak to yourself a little.

"Yup."

"And three, no four reiatsu signatures."

"One stronger than the rest.
A pack."

"But it's hard to tell.
The leader is blurring out the others and is probably suppressing his own power."

"Maybe Vasto Lorde surrounded by Adjuchas."

"Or four Adjuchas with one considerably stronger than the rest."

She looks at you.
"Can't you tell?
You were a Vasto Lorde too."

You shake your head.
"It's not that simple.
The key differences in reiatsu come from individual differences and not evolutionary stages.
It's possible it's one incredibly powerful adjuchas."

There is a brief pause.
"How did it feel?"
She asks.

"Honestly?
Underwhelming."

I cant wait till down the line and the new recruits and enemies just assume us as a straightforward powerhouse hollow and Kaizar just reminisces when he used to be helpful and clever before he got strong and lazy.

>>47974057
Pretty sure our nano-hollows in our hollow-bloodstream are passively reducing our reiatsu, so we seem a fair bit weaker than we are. Unless simeone see's us in our ressurection, and we show off our power in that form, nobodies going to know just how powerful we are. Hell, our ressurection has loads more goo so we'd probably appear weaker in that form than we do now, really.

>>47974057
I'll be honest I kinda miss being a stealthy hollow who lured people into obvious traps and ate them, those were the days.

>>47974100

I can see it now.

Instead of unleashing massive waves of spiritual energy and pressure in his resurrecion, all that comes out is a massive, disgusting and glorious wave of goo.

>>47974100
I'm mostly talking about the days when Kaizar had to use tricks and fear tactics just to survive, nowadays he just mows everything down in assault mode.

If anyone just saw how he fights against things he can beat that way they might just assume his powers are good for nothing but steam rolling.

Largely so down the line when we fight a captain or something he can tell them about how lazy hes gotten when he can't just brute force them.

Its not a bad thing its good narrative that Kaizar is getting complacent with just smacking hoes.

>>47973945

What would the chances had been for those to go vasto though? Isn't vasto quite rare?

>>47974211
Vasto is rare insofar as nobody really understands how to achieve it, so typically it's more or less random. However, I feel that once Kaizar got vasto, he would have put things together on how he got it, and helped her get it as well. Even if not, better she actually tried instead of just becoming a slave

>>47974211
Nelliel is probably the strongest Adjucas in canon, so she probably had a decent shot at it.

Man spooky maybe you should run on Sunday more often we haven't broke past 20 posters in a long time plus we got a good chance of making this thing reach 200 posts

But around this time you can see what they are using as cover.
A large rock formation, the signals are coming from under it.

"A cave."
Lan observes.

You nod in agreement.
"Shall we?"

After finding the entrance you take the initiative and go in first.
Lan follows slowly after you.

But this is strange.
They felt you coming for a while now and yet they didn't leave their little cave even though they had plenty of time to do so.
Your options are the following:
-They are incompetent
-They got scared and now made a grave mistake.

But as you ponder you suddenly speak up though it was barely audible.
"Trap."

It was after this stray thought that you reached the end of the rather large set of stairs and step forth.
As you do however your feet begin sinking.
You raise your left arm to signal Lan.
"Quicksand."

"NOW MILA ROSE!"
You hear a female voice shouting.

You can hear a clanking noise and the entire roof begins to collapse on you in the form of a giant stone slab.
It hits you right in the face as you look up to find the source of the rumble.
Mere moments before it hits you catch your falling cap.

When everything clears there's no sign you were ever there.
In your place is a rather large stone cube slowly sinking into the quicksand.

The four Menos begin to crawl out of the shadows and reveal themselves.
"HAH, SERVES HIM RIGHT!"
A deer like Adjuchas speaks up.

"I'm surprised your ridiculous idea actually worked."
A serpentine adjuchas began to criticize her.

"Whaaat?!
Ms I've no plans for a trap is trying to insult my ingenious idea?"

"HEY! YOU TWO!"
A large hollow which looks like a lion roars up.
"We still have one to deal with."

And from behind them a small, human sized hollow comes out.
Her features resemble that of a shark.
"Sorry about that.
But fighting you four on one is the only way we can win.
Now, are you prepared?"

But Wang Lan is unphased.
She doesn't even begin to release her sword from its bindings.

>Get Kaizar, Marr and Starrk to rip their arms of.
>Create Qimera.
>???
>Profit.

>>47974321
Aw shit, we need to step in before Wang Lan kills her fraccion, or we're never gonna get the shark on our side. And we're gonna need her and stark both to stand a chance against Aizen's bullshittery

>>47974323
>Dinosaur
>Wolf
>NEWT!

That Quimera would be the pinnacle of "Enemy of mankind"

>>47974357
>newt

I will gut you so hard your children are born without organs.

>>47974200
>tfw no one realizes who Kaizar really is at first because he seems like some generic stronk arrancar

>then he starts to flay people alive and disembowel people and commit mass murder as a distraction to the captain he is fighting so he can get a clean shot on him

Nazihollows, not even once.

Did we rip our own fucking mask off? When the fuck did we do that?

>>47972443
"Nobody has ever seen it and lived to tell about it."
Aaroniero interjects.
"There's only one documented case of him ever using it and the place is uninhabitable ever since.
There's an eternally raging storm which tears your flesh off if you stray too close to it and it appeared after Marr used his resurrected form."

This dudes edgy as fuck

>>47974481
Read the previous thread you illiterate fool.

>>47974503
I apparently missed last thread. Fucking hell, well guess we're locked in like faggots.

>>47974513
Should have been there~

>>47974496
Dudes lived 66 gorillion years as a spirit that eats other spirits. of course he's edgy.

>>47974496
Well he did kill the dinosaurs, so.

>>47973716
I'm hoping it's just going to be nanohollow overload. Rebuilding Kaizar's body every half a second and regenerating so fast that it looks like attacks just phase through him.

>>47974539

"What's this?
You won't resist?
That's even better!"
The deer adjuchas begins gloating.

Lan doesn't pay much attention to them however and simply starts knocking on the sinking boulder.
"That's heavy."

The Vasto Lorde looks at her concerned.
"What are y-"

But before she could finish the ground begins to shake and the quicksand erupts from underneath the rock.
Once the sand is gone the large stone begins to slowly rise and underneath is Kaizar, holding the whole thing with only the tip of his fingers.
The Arrancar is standing on a small reishi platform with the humongous slab above him.

He looks at the large piece of rock and sighs.
"I remember the time I had to rely on tricks like these.
Man I was lucky."

After emerging from a pile of sand the Vasto Lorde looks at you.
*cough cough*
"What do you mean?"

"If I ever met someone truly strong, I would have died."
You then toss the rock back into the ceiling where it came from, except it doesn't stop after going back to its hole and it keeps going until it penetrates the rock in which the cave is located and flies high into the sky.

The four hollows look at you shocked.
"I-impossible!
How is he that strong?!"
The lion Adjuchas begins demanding an answer from you.

"Appearances can be deceiving."
You say after dusting off the cap that is still in your left hand and putting it back on.
"Sorry about your roof by the way.
But I think it's a better exchange than taking your life for attacking me."

The four hollows are looking at you expressing a wide range of emotions in the meantime.
You look back at Lan.
"You didn't do anything?"

"You said "follow"."

You smile.
"That I did."
You turn your attention to the Menos now.
"Now then, what do we do now?"

>"You had some nerve attacking me"
>"I heard some mumbling about 4 on 1. Here I am" (This results in a fight)
>"That was awkward, let's start over! Hi my name is Kaizar."

>>47974581
>"I heard some mumbling about 4 on 1. Here I am" (This results in a fight)
Just beat them to a pulp though, we dont want them dieing.

>>47974596

>>47974581
>>"That was awkward, let's start over! Hi my name is Kaizar."

Oh shit if Kaizar can still make mucus strands he can now use them like tightropes in his humanoid form. Enemies will be like "can he not float?" no realizing we're actually setting up an endoslung

>>47974562
>Nazi ghost gas cloud

You have my attention

>>47974612
We're trying to get them to be loyal to us. Since we'll need powerful allies to ever have even a REMOTE chance of getting out from under Aizen, who is at some point going to order us to our death while holding vanaheim hostage.

Beating them to an inch of their lives just shows we're the same as any other hollow, which would probably not foster much loyalty.

>>47974581
Didi we bring any food/drink with us? That seems like something that could've helped with any negotiations we needed to do.

>>47974581
>"That was awkward, let's start over! Hi my name is Kaizar. I'm here to talk about recruiting you for recruiting you into an army. Or inviting you to Vanahiem since its exempt from press ganging as a part of my deal with the fellow that's running the army. I'd get an incredible amount of flack for exempting a Vasto, but oh well. I negotiated that loophole for a reason after all."

>>47974581

He would come down and slap the shit out of us and tell us how stronk he is and how we are a little bitch and then take fucking everyone and probably kill them just to spite us.

>>47974674
>>47974764
>>47974782

No. Why exempt a fucking Vasto?

Get her into the Espada.

How far does the dinosaur hollow hole go?

>>47974793
>>47974797

It's more to give her a bit of time to tear off her own mask and get her fraccion to do the same to pre-empt Aizen doing it.

>>47974798
Wait! Holy shit! He's one of the babby lizard hollows just he managed to find something squishier than himself to eat! Mother of god!

>>47974797
>>47974793
The odds of her actually taking that offer is tiny. I was trying to gain her loyalty by offering to help her out.

>Writing

>>47974824

Then why offer it?

>>47974810

Then just ask her to do it after she says yes? Or get one of the soon-to-be-Privarons to help them through it.

>>47974853
>Then why offer it?
Because she'll appreciate the offer. Her aspect of Death is Sacrifice. No way she'd let us take the hit like that, but she'd sure as fuck appreciate us offering.

>>47974899
So, meta.

>>47974899

Quit using meta.

>>47974899
God dammit anon stop using meta. The exact same thing happened with "waifuing" and the surpassing hollow bit. Stop it.

>>47974899
You didn't earn those dubs, You stole them.

>>47974899
t. waifufag

>>47974913
Not that anon, but another reason could be that if she has a fraccion, then she's clearly not the same kind of hollow as dudes like Alistair, and was smart enough to lay a trap to make it an easier fight for her subordinates instead of just throwing them at us. She clearly values her mooks.

I mean, I hate meta too, but there is some reasoning to using her clear like of her subordinates to get her loyalty.

But here's the thing. You people want to say that in front of Wang Lan? Ya know the other Espada that is there with us?

Okay I'm a bit late, so let me see if I got this right.

Marr is a dinosaur, as in a literal fucking dinosaur that became a hollow.

After millions of years of eating fuckers and ruining shit he either gained sentience or just became humanish enough to fake it really well.

Got bored of being at the peak (or what he believed to be the peak) of hollow evolution at Vasto Lorde level, tore off his mask and became an arrancar.

Fucks around some more, then Aizen aka if my plans were a bitch I would fuck them so hard semen comes out of every orifice Souzen shows up and says, "I'm going to break the world want to help?"

So he agrees and beings following Aizen between a combination of hallucinations that say that Aizen is stronger than he actually is* and a general desire to just fuck shit up.

Then we fuck off with one of the few people who actually understand the fucker and just happen to run into Sharktits, aka Brown skinned beauty, aka Waifu option number 2, aka Harribel.

*I refuse to believe that a hollow like Marr is weaker than a bitch human that just happen to become a shinigami and then captain. I don't care how much he trained the only reason Kikakku fucker is still alive has to be either trickery of Plot rock bullshit.

>>47974949
Oh, I'm on team Nelliel actually and was actually hoping to not encounter her until Nelliel gained enough experience to stay ahead of her. Won't stop me from trying to gain Tier's loyalty as best I can.

>>47974976
only 3 retards think it's a good idea, so I hope Spooky nixes it.


>>47974980
Yes, more or less you hit it on the nailhead.

>>47974976
Apparently the few anons that wanted it forgot Wang Lan was there.

>>47974980
My question is

If Marrs been around and eating shit for millions of years and hasnt evolved to the next level of hollow evolution then how the fuck where we gonna do it?

>>47974985
Eh, not to start a fight, But I am firmly anti-Nel since she took the Aizen bait and peer pressured every single fucking one of our bros bar Yata into becoming Aizens slave.

Plus she's the worst fucking Arrancar in terms of personailty, but that's meta. I'd rather waifu fucking STARRK than nel, but that's just, like, my opinion, man.

>>47975035

Maybe he didn't have the potential for it?

>>47975035
hollow evolution is dictated by potential.
He does not have the potential, because of his nature.

>>47975036
Anon we were Aizen's salve from the time we met him. he was just more lenient with us because we bowed down quickly, talked a great game, and had our own realm of useful things he could use. He still owned us.

>>47975035
Because eating is only half of the battle and not even trying to be a cunt.

>>47975036
Don't worry Anon, She'll get her ass beat the fuck in soonish and we'll 'lose' her if possible.

>>47975098
>Wanting to lose one of our oldest freinds
>because waifushit
Fuck off

>>47974980
>a bitch human that just happen to become a shinigami and then captain


Nigger 99% the hollows were bitch humans who cried so hard over dying they stuck around and didn't get sent off to "heaven" fast enough.

Stop being so fucking stupid.

>>47975035

If I remember right I think it was agreed that Hollow evolution was based on the five stages of grief.

Marr could probably get depressed but I doubt that a being like him could accept anything just happening to him.

He's a fighter first and foremost, all of his problems are things that he can solve by either eating them or smashing them, if he can't do either he probably wouldn't bother.

Kaizer however possesses the ability of introspection and actually giving a shit about his lot in life and wanting to improve it. He also cares about beings other than himself. It would have taken time, but I believe we would have achieved it with a combination of Goo bullshit, intense training, and honest to god mediation on our soul.

Marr's a fucking T rex though, he's not about to do some pussy monkey shit like meditation just to get stronger, he'll eat his way up there thank you very much.

>>47975088
Except she could have had our backs and tried to vasto with us instead of immediately going "Yo sure i'll suck yo dick if you get my mask off f.am"

FFS imagine if we trained up pesci and alex to vasto before they turned. Imagine how much better our side would be right now. Butn nope, they had to get more human immediately despite the fact they hadn't had to eat another hollow for fucking YEARS.

But again, this is neither here nor there, and if we so much as mention the word waifu or if we like one character over another, the anti-waifufags will roll in and start throwing their cancer everywhere.

>>47975113
You do realize she would just wonder off for some 20 years? It'll give us a reason to kill the one fucker and also drive us on to higher heights. All part of a master plan anon.

You crack your knuckles and then your neck.
You look the Vasto straight in the eye and start walking up to her, still cracking your knuckles.
She looks at you with a lot of fear in her eyes.

When you get close enough you extend your left hand.
"My name is Kaizar Soize and I hope we can overlook this incident."

Her eyes betray her confusion, she doesn't know how to react to this.
"B-but we attacked you..."

"Yes."

"And you are just going to ignore that?"

You give her a serious look.
"I'm sparing you right now.
Don't look a gifthorse in the mouth."

She looks considerably more calm now.
"And how do I know this isn't a trick?"

Now you are not amused.
"Fine."
And with that you begin to relax your suppression.
Little by little your reiatsu starts to leak out until it fills the entire cave and the legs of the 3 Adjuchas give out.
The shark Vasto is looking like she won't be able to hold out much longer either.

Her eyes are watering from the exertion and her sweat betrays her.
You start suppressing your power once more.
"I told you.
I'm not here for trouble.
And all I want now is a handshake."

She extends her left arm and shakes yours.
"T-Tier Harribel."

You let go of her arm.
"A pleasure."
You gesture towards your partner.
"This is Wang Lan, we are Arrancars."

"Arrancars? That's impossible!"
The lion speaks up.

"Hush, Mila Rose!"
Harribel orders her subordinate to quiet down.
"Sorry, she is Franceska Mila Rose.
The other two are Cyan Sung-Sun and Emilou Apacci.
Now, what do you want from us?"

You scratch the back of your head and sigh a little.
"Not beating around the bush, huh?"
You look over at Lan carefully.
"Lan, go to the entrance of the cave, I'm sure my little performance just attracted every suicidal idiot in a ten mile radius.
I'd prefer if they didn't come barging in when I'm explaining shit."

She nods and starts walking outside.
Meanwhile you look around for, well, anything.
But this cave is literally just a hole in the ground.

>>47975036
>not husbandoing Starrk as a general rule

What are you even doing with your tastes?

>>47975138
Pretty sure they'd have turned arancar anyways, and your butthurt of minmaxing is not helping really.


>>47975146
Still OOC as fuck. Kaizar takes care of hi freinds.

>>47975202
I know, but we can't ALWAYS be there to protect them. But I might be bullshiting right now, so we'll need to wait and see.

>>47975202
Yeah.

She did ask them, and they agreed to it.

It's their choice if they wanna become Arrancars, not Kaizar's.

Does my heart good to see so much discussion going on, Even if it is a bit heated

>>47975228
Well Nnoitora kept going after Nel. Chronically. I imagine after the second or third time she lets him go free he'd smack the little shit down.

>>47975299
please kaizer's gonna murder the shit out of him the second he fucks with one of our friends.

>>47975299
I just thought of something, she clearly wants to stand on her own two feet. Wouldn't she pissed if we stepped in at any point between her and Nnoitorathe's little sparring sessions?

I think we're damned if we do or don't here.

>>47975114

Potential anon, it's all about potential.

It doesn't matter if they, as you so eloquently put it, cried so hard over dying that they stuck around and didn't get sent off to heaven, or got sent there and became one of the many souls in the Soul society.

Marr had potential, and he grew that potential by being a motherfucking T rex and wrecking shit until he became even stronger.

He was doing that before monkeys were even a thing, let alone humans.

You're telling me that a human, a being that just appeared millions of years after Marr was becoming one of the nastiest fuckers this side of hell, is stronger than he is?

The only human I would accept being in that teir is Old man Genocide, and that's only because he, like us, started with bullshit and grew and nurtured that bullshit like a favored son.

I'm not saying he's better than Aizen, just stronger.

Loath that I am to admit it, Kikakku fucker is SMART. He knows he can't win in a straight fight, so he makes it so a straight fight would never happen.

Hence the illusion that he's stronger with the added caveat of appealing to Marr's base nature and sending him screaming into the biggest battle of his existance.

Marr's like an Ork, send towards a fight and he's your best friend, just be sure to remember he's planning on killing you at all times and your golden.

>>47975299
>"I'm gonna kill/rape you, Nel". - Nnoitora
>RKO OUTTA NOWHERE!!! "Don't fuck with my friends." - Kaizar

Seems like a non-issue.

>>47975346
No this is after. As in he attacks her, she kicks his face in and then she doesn't punish him. After about the second or third time in that cycle Kaizar would take the little shit aside and say "Listen here insect, stop being a shit or I'll go Marr on you."

>>47975367
kinda

>>47975383
Well fair enough, I may have just been misreading the situation after all. Figured she wanted to handle anything like that her own way.

"Erm...
Where do you guys sit down?"

They all look at you confused.
"Sit down?
On the ground, idiot!"

The other two Adjuchas quickly scold her.
"APPACI!"

"I'm sorry but I don't get what you are asking."
Harribel speaks.

Well now you feel dumb.
It seems living in your forest for the past century really made you soft.
Up until this point you were living in what would be considered luxury in Hueco Mundo even though it was just bare bones basic accommodation.
You simply sit down on the ground and signal the others to get comfortable as well.

"Sorry just... forget I ever asked anything."

They follow your example and sit down on the ground.
"Very well.
Now, can you explain what you want from us?"

"Of course."
You clear your throat in preparation for your long speech.
"We are members of an army of arrancars and we are searching the deserts of Hueco Mundo for hollows suitable for transformation."

"You are expanding your army..."

"Yes."

"Aren't Arrancars supposed to be a made up fairy tale or somethin'?"
Appaci asks.

Your only response is drawing your sword.
After letting them gaze upon it for a few moments you slice the ground with it.
"Fairy tales don't cut stone like that."

"I see.
So you are looking for strong hollows to make strong arrancars, right?"

"You could say that.
Any hollow can become an Arrancar as far as I know.
But Menos generally produce better ones and Adjuchas or even Vasto Lorde level..."

The three adjuchas are looking at Harribel desperately.
She has a clam and collected expression and asks a question.
"So you are here to conscript us?"

"You could say that...
It's our job to look for potential Arrancars.
But I'm not going to force you into joining us.
I, personally, am looking for volunteers and NOT slaves."

After this there is a long and awkward silence.
Nobody wants to talk.
But now you feel thirsty.
You take out your waterskin and take a few swigs of the spring water you brought with yourself.

>>47975383
Three strikes he's out

>>47975349
I never said Aizen was stronger than Marr. However, your argument is silly and collapses on itself. It is all about potential. Aizen was one of the strongest Captains sans OMG and Shunsui, matched by very few. Kaizar went vasto in a matter of years as opposed to the decades or centuries it takes others to do it. Marr is as strong as he can be, he just happens to be stronger than almost everyone else. But to say Aizen is "a little bitch human" is stupid, because that is literally virtually every character in Bleach.

I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying, I'm chiding you for how you said it.

>>47975501

Fair enough.

After you finish you let out a satisfying popping noise after you take out the waterskin from your mouth.
"Man I was getting parched."

As you are about to put your water away you look at the four hollows who are staring at you in disbelief.
*What are they staring at?
I didn't do anything except...*

You look down at your waterskin and you grin like the devil himself in your mind.
In a casual tone you extend your arm.
"Want some?"

She is hesitant at first but curiosity overwhelms her pretty fast.
It's funny how careful she is, she even smells its content before taking a sip.
Her eyes go wide when she does however.

"Lady Harribel!"
The three of them speak up in unison.
"What's wrong?"

"N-nothing...
It's just water."

The three of them sigh with relief but you can see the gears slowly turning inside of their heads.
"HUH?!
WATER?!"

Now you give a fiendish grin for real.
"It always slips my mind what the outside world is like.
Living in fear, always seeking out the next meal, the shadow of irreversible regression looming over you.
Nothing but despair."

"How did you..."

"I had enough of it all.
I had enough of the constant wandering, that I had to cannibalize hollows all the time, that there was never a place where I could safely lay my head down.
This world, this Hell.
I had enough of it.
So I changed it!"

"What are you..."

"From the filth and muck I built an oasis of hope for one reason.
So my friends won't have to suffer.
A brilliant blue forest where there's food, water and safety.
It's called Vanaheim."

"QUIT SCREWIN' AROUND!"
Appachi explodes.
"LIKE HELL SUCH A THING EXISTS!"
Tears begin to collect under her eye.
"IF YOU ARE GOING TO KILL US JUST DO IT ALREADY!
BUT DON'T YOU FUCKIN' DARE GET OUR HOPES UP LIKE THAT JUST TO TOY WITH US!"

You look at her with the most serious look you can manage.
You take off your heat and undo the top button of your coat.
"If you don't believe it, you can come and take a good look at it."

Is Kaizar about to have to fuck a bitch?

Wait.

>>47975784
Remind me,

How did we even get water in our forest? Last thing I remember, we watered plants with Mucus

Appachi is still looking at you with watery eyes and her two comrades are in a similar shape even though they are more composed than her.
Harribel is looking at you scornfully.
They don't believe you.

>Tell them that if they join the army they can live there.
>Invite them to live there, no condition.
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."
>Other? (write-in)

>>47975784
>This world, this Hell. I had enough of it.So I changed it!"

I can't wait for the inevitable Kaizar vs KingSpooky Showdown. He has to get a lot of training before he is ready for that, though. Right now i'd say he's around canon Nnoitra level based on how he compares to Nel..

>>47975846
>Kaizar's undressing
>come take a good look at it

>>47975853
Nanomach- I mean, NANOHOLLOWS, SON.

>>47975861
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

Let them see it before asking them to join up.

>>47975861
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975861
>>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975853
After a while water began sprouting from the ground.
It appeared out of nowhere similar to the plants

>>47975861
Spooky, this? >>47975853

>>47975861
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975861
>Other? (write-in)
>Join with me and I will show you such a wonderful place.

Also, Lewd son. We're strippin in another persons house.

>>47975861
>>Invite them to live there, no condition.
>>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975863
>Right now i'd say he's around canon Nnoitra level based on how he compares to Nel..
Nah, Nel was significantly stronger than Canon Ntoria.

>>47975861
> Do a little Mucus demonstration. Prove them that you can create life even in this desert.
>Invite them to live there, no condition.

>>47975881
Much thanks

>>47975861
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."
>Explain that you have simply regrown the fruit natural to hueco mundo that Barrigan destroyed four thousand years ago, which can replace hollows in a diet easily.

>>47975861
>>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975861
>"As I said, you can come see for yourself."

>>47975900

I don't really see it. She couldn't really hurt him in their unreleased forms, and only got a good shot at him after she released and he stayed sealed. They are around equal.

Also, consider that canon Nel might be stronger than she is right now, after all she had a lot more time to Train.

>>47975989
>I don't really see it.
Ntoria was also way, way slower than Nelliel. If her endurance wasn't crap due to the wound she'd just kite him to death. What's he going to do, fire a Cero at her?

>writing

>>47975989
Well Nnoitora had the strongest Hierro compared to anyone at his level of strength. Obviously the much higher leveled arrancar would have more powerful by virtue of being more swole, but Spoonmantis' Hierro was no fucking joke.

Well, until he got fugged.

"Tell me Harribel, how much do you know about Hueco Mundo before it became this wasteland?"

"What?"

"I asked if you are aware how this place was before this."

"I only know that Barragan was the one who made it like this long ago."

"Well, I undid it.
And whether you believe me or not is irrelevant.
As I said before, you can come and see for yourself."

"And let me guess, we'd have to serve you to live there..."

You give her another serious look.
"No."

"Excuse me?"

"I built it with my own two hands and I have free reign over it.
If you join us, fine.
Given that I have the most influence in our army currently nobody can force you to join if I say otherwise.
There are pilgrims coming there daily and I don't turn away any of them.
I kill a lot for breaking the rules but that's another thing entirely."

"And just what are those rules?"

You begin counting the rules on your fingers.
"You don't kill other hollows.
You don't take what's not yours and you don't cause trouble for others.
We have many types of people living there, if you don't like someone then avoid them.
And in exchange you get food, water and shelter.
And if you think you'll be peer pressured into joining the army you are mistaken.
I'm a part of the army but I own the land where they are currently residing.
So I have absolute control over it both in and outside the armies influence."

"So... we can go and take a look at it?
Just like that?"
Sung-Sun asks.

You nod.
"And if you don't like it you can leave.
If anyone says otherwise I'll bury them myself."

Harribel still looks concerned.
"I still have a question.
Why?"

You look down, fists clenched.
"Because I know what it's like out there.
You seem like good people, not many hollows would go through all this trouble to protect each other.
It's admirable.
And I allowed less noble people stay in my forest than that."

Harribel closes her eye for a moment to think things through.
"Very well.
We'll go and take a look but that's it."

When you reach the surface Wang Lan is still keeping watch.
She turns around to address you.
"No hostiles."

You smile at her.
"Good, then we were both successful."

"Are they joining?"

"We'll see."

When you look back the four hollows are coming up the long set of stairs.
They appear to be very cautious of you and the potential danger which lurks around.

You turn your attention to Lan.
"Contact the others via Denreishinki.
Tell them we are turning back."

I mean, it's no Starrk, but she's cool, at least. Get it, cool, because, water powers... I'll just go.

And that'll be it for todays quest.

I honestly wanted to get more shit done but today was a long day and I'm simply too exhausted to continue.

In exchange I'm aiming for a double take on the weekend in exchange.

Archive is up.
I'll do the pastes tomorrow.

Just got done watching a movie called "The Usual Suspects". You know who the big bad unknown secret criminal mind was? Kaizar Soize. His wife and children were killed, and the dude was described as basically as a monster possesing incredible will power. Taking all this into account, I can only say this: Anon who suggested this name,
I see what you fucking did there.
>pic related

>>47980074
You too Spooky, I also saw what you did there

>>47980074
That is where the name came from anon. If you trawl through the threads when we discussed the name I did say that The Usual Suspects was where I got the idea just made it weebish for the quest.

>>47980074
Hell, nobody's realized yet that the protag of mecha space pirate quest has the same last name as the protagonist of Outlaw Star.

>>47980074

Did you just watch the movie for the first time?

>>47980177
I don't think they actually care.

>>47980195
Yeah, first time. That plot twist though. That's a plot twist done right. 10/10 would watch again.
