Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

As expected of the strongest Espada, even after splitting himself, he still possesses such powerful spiritual pressure, surpassing even Szayelaporro.

As the materialized pillar of spiritual pressure dissipated, a completely transformed Stark reappeared in sight.

The old gray cloak disappeared, replaced by a gray fur-trimmed coat with wolf-hair-like fur appearing on the collar, cuffs, and calves.

He held a flintlock musket in each hand, with an antique feel.

A deep blue spiritual pressure swirled around his body, causing distorted lines to appear in the surrounding area, radiating a chilling aura.

Such a strong performance caught someone's eye.

Before coming to Hueco Mundo, Aizen had repeatedly warned him, fearing that he might cause some trouble.

This clearly underestimates his abilities.

Once he has beaten Stark and Lilynette to their knees and brought them back to Las Noches as prisoners, then he can see what his adopted son has to say.

It's another case of self-destruction and soul splitting.

You can't find such excellent experimental material anywhere else in the entire Hueco Mundo.

Not only Aizen, but even Szayelaporro, another Arrancar, would find it difficult to resist this fatal temptation.

Is there really no room for negotiation?

Stark tried to persuade him one last time, but Lilynette, who had transformed into a flintlock musket, tried to jump up and smash his head.

"You coward, I shouldn't have split you off in the first place!"

"I understand."

Stark raised the musket in his right hand, aimed it at the figure in front of him, and pulled the trigger.

next second.

Countless spiritual particles condensed at the muzzle of the gun, and a beam of azure light burst forth in an instant, sweeping across the night sky like silk, coloring everything nearby.

Then it was caught firmly by a pair of large hands, and to Stark's astonishment, the full-force Cero was torn apart.

The forcibly split Cero grazed past them, landing in the desert on either side, instantly bursting into waves of silver sand.

Stark was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had ever seen his Cero broken in this way, which completely violated the rules of fighting between Shinigami and Hollows.

"Hey, what's this?"

"Powder tile".

Naraku grinned, and the moment he finished speaking, he activated the Sora.

With a humming sound emanating from the space, the figure vanished from the spot.

Stark's pupils constricted, his worldview being challenged once again.

If he wasn't mistaken, the way that Grim Reaper moved just now should have been a spinning motion, right?

When did Shinigami acquire the unique abilities of Hollows?

What if the opponent pulls out a Cero next?

Just as he was in shock, a ferocious smile suddenly appeared in his sight, and a dazzling silver light flashed as the Zanpakuto slashed down.

An intense aura of death instantly enveloped Stark, and a bone-chilling cold seeped into his body through his pores and into his internal organs.

At this moment, the instinct from the void emitted a sharp, explosive sound!

Stark unleashed the fastest vortex of his life, his entire body contorting and blurring amidst the violent transformation of his spiritual energy.

Having barely dodged a simple, unadorned strike, before even turning around, the aftershocks of the impact swept over them.

As if struck in the back by a heavy hammer, Stark staggered forward and nearly fell into the sandpit.

What kind of monster is this?!

Even the aftershocks have such a strong impact; if you were to be hit head-on, wouldn't you be covered in bruises and scrapes?

Stark took a deep breath, realizing the gap between the two sides.

At the same time, he thought of a way to deal with it, and immediately unleashed a powerful attack, putting distance between himself and Naraku.

You can't win in close combat, so try using Cero to shoot the opponent to pieces from a distance.

Stark raised his twin pistols.

The next second, beams of phantom light, like a torrential rain, rained down from the sky, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield.

The entire sky was covered by a torrent of azure blue, and space appeared distorted, with countless crooked and trembling lines scattered throughout.

Wherever it passed, whether it was silver sand or giant rocks, they were instantly reduced to nothingness.

The terrifying scale caused the ground beneath their feet to tremble, and silver sand swirled wildly, as if the end of the world had arrived.

The aftershocks alone were enough to wipe out the life of an Adjuchas-level Hollow.

However, faced with such an attack, Narakuku made no attempt to dodge. He stood there blankly, as if he had been scared out of his wits.

Just when Stark thought the battle was about to end, to his puzzled gaze, someone raised a finger and assumed a shooting stance.

A strong sense of unease gripped his heart.

next second.

A crimson torrent crackling with wild electric arcs burst forth from his fingertips, condensing into an unparalleled pillar of light mixed with lightning, instantly turning half the sky blood red.

Infinite Reload Cero VS. Hado Fusion Cero!

Chapter 225 Try to survive, Grim Reaper

A thousand Cero shots were fired simultaneously, causing the sky above Hueco Mundo to tremble. The azure torrent swept across the area, engulfing everything in its path like a tsunami.

A scene resembling a natural disaster unfolded on the battlefield.

Grimmjow, arriving late, stared in disbelief at the scene in the distance, feeling for the first time his own fragility and powerlessness.

At this moment, he was just like a human facing a natural disaster, completely powerless to struggle and could only watch helplessly as the end of the world came.

Wherever the azure waters flow, even space itself is distorted.

However, even with such power, the Infinite Reload Cero could not advance an inch before that crimson beam of light, crackling with chaotic lightning.

Outside the hundreds-of-meters-long beam of illusory light, there was a powerful destructive force belonging to the Death God's Demon Path.

Electric arcs surged, and a fierce light ignited.

Like a solar flare, the moment the corona ejects, the azure flashes melt away like spring snow, disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Crimson light and azure flow painted the sky, presenting a posture of opposing forces, like the collision of water and fire, constantly neutralizing each other.

But soon, the battle between the Cero flashes was decided, the scorching heat spreading outwards, melting the silver sand below and creating concentric ripples.

As autonomous Arrancars, before Stark and Lilynette split, their spiritual pressure was so strong that even their unconscious outward projection was enough to erode the souls of weak Hollows.

Even though its strength has weakened due to the splitting of its soul, its spiritual pressure is still far greater than that of other Hollows, making its Cero extremely powerful.

Even so, in terms of sheer power, it is still considerably weaker than the Cero released by Naraku.

Hado Fusion Cero!

Based on Naraku Sora's perfect mastery of certain types of Hado, he incorporates Hado techniques such as Twin Lotus Azure Fire Drop and Flying Dragon Strike Thunder Cannon into his Cero.

It unleashed pure and extreme destruction!

The only problem is that the duration of a single release is relatively short, and it cannot completely extinguish Stark's infinite reload Cero.

The second, third, or even fourth Cero must be seamlessly launched before the power of the previous Cero is exhausted.

Until the azure torrent that covered the sky completely disappeared and turned into nothingness.

The intense light, mixed with thunder, surged forward recklessly, seemingly without limit, melting the silver sands of the desert below and forcing Stark to dodge.

They were also shocked by Naraku Sora's attack methods.

What the hell is this?!

A Cero?!

Judging from his appearance, spiritual pressure, and even the aura emanating from his soul, he is a violent individual who is purely a Shinigami, yet he has unleashed a Cero?!

Stark's eyes were somewhat dazed.

He now seriously suspects that he has been walking alone in Hueco Mundo for too long, causing him to become completely out of touch with the outside world and abandoned by the mainstream.

Could it be that the Grim Reaper conquered Hueco Mundo hundreds of years ago?

Then, over the long years, the Grim Reapers discovered that there was no reproductive barrier between them, and in a state of mutual affection, they had a child.

Is the Grim Reaper in front of you actually a hybrid of a Grim Reaper and a Hollow?

For a moment, Stark's gaze became somewhat strange.

Nai Luo Kong: "?"

Although he didn't have Aizen's mind-reading ability, he could still detect an expression of offense on this guy's face.

There's no other reason than that I often see it on Kisuke Urahara's face.

Over time, and with more repetitions, you gradually become able to guess it.

This also forced Kisuke Urahara to suppress his emotions to prevent a wicked boss from figuring something out and then giving him a severe beating.

hum-

With a resounding echo, Naraku forcibly closed the distance between the two, and a blade wrapped in spiritual pressure appeared without warning directly in front of Stark.

Clang!

The clanging of metal against metal echoed as Stark raised his hands, crossing his twin pistols in front of him, a thick layer of spiritual pressure covering them, attempting to block the simple, unadorned strike.

Countless sparks flew out, scattering like raindrops.

The surging shockwave spread outwards, creating visible ripples against the night sky.

Looking down from above, it resembles ripples on a lake.

Although the Starks are better at ranged attacks, they are by no means weak in melee combat.

Even though the fight was completely disorganized, he still managed to withstand one strike after another by relying on his instincts.
