Just as Ulquiorra thought so, the members of Akatsuki also sensed the presence of the three people and came out of their respective palaces.

For a moment, Ulquiorra's eyes lit up because he saw two new faces.

It's not like he didn't recognize them, after all, the difference in appearance was very obvious, but he remembered that after he left, neither of them had completed their Arrancar.

But now... Harribel and Nel have already completed the Arrancar. Harribel's change is slightly okay, but Nel's change is quite big. She originally had the lower body of an antelope and the upper body of a human, but now she has completely turned into a human.

Ulquiorra didn't believe that they could complete the Arrancar at the same time on their own in such a short time.

Therefore, it must be that Xia Li gained stronger power after coming out of seclusion and helped them.

Xia Li looked at the figures of Harribel and Nel with a satisfied smile. Although he gave them the power to help them become Arrancars, the fact that they could succeed in such a short time also proved their potential and the determination of the Arrancars.

"Hey, Xia Li, Ulquiorra, and this one..." Stark greeted lazily, then looked at Kenpachi Zaraki.

"Kenpachi Zaraki, my former colleague in Soul Society, has come with me now." Xia Li gave a brief introduction.

Stark nodded, then looked at Kenpachi Zaraki with a serious look in his eyes. He could feel a very terrifying aura from the other party.

"I'm Koyate Stark, you can just call me Stark." Stark was the first to greet.

Kenpachi Zaraki also stared at Stark, nodded and grinned, saying, "You're pretty good!"

Because Kenpachi Zaraki also felt the huge spiritual pressure from Stark.

From this point of view, the two are very similar. Both are born with very high spiritual pressure, but their personalities are different. Kenpachi Zaraki is warlike and wants a stronger opponent.

Stark, on the other hand, is rather lazy. If he wasn't afraid of being alone, he probably wouldn't have moved before.

Afterwards, several people introduced themselves to each other, and Stark also understood Kenpachi Zaraki's strength and the subsequent arrangements.

"What a hassle." Stark was a little helpless, but still agreed. He knew that this would be beneficial to their strength.

In this way, Kenpachi Zaraki also completed his idea of ​​fighting, and they were also able to quickly gain experience and improve in this kind of battle, getting the best of both worlds.

only……

"You completed the second stage of Blade Reincarnation?!" Stark looked at Ulquiorra with a little surprise.

"Yes." Ulquiorra nodded.

Harribel and Nel next to them also looked at Ulquiorra in surprise. They had just completed the first Arrancar, while the other party had already completed the second stage of Renrik.

Originally, they thought they might have almost caught up, but they didn't expect the result to be like this.

"Let's go to the battle venue." Xia Li said suddenly. He was still very interested in their current strength ranking.

"Hahahaha, that's right, Xia Li is still straightforward. We'll know his strength after the second stage of Return to Blade after a fight." Kenpachi Zaraki also laughed at this time.

However, these four people from the Akatsuki organization were not easy to talk to, so naturally no one responded. However, no one objected to Xia Li's proposal.

They are still very interested in Ulquiorra's current strength after his second stage of Return to Blade.

Soon, Xia Li found a very open place. Hueco Mundo is very large, so it is easy to find a place that is entirely desert.

"Let's do it here. I'll be the referee." Xia Li said and looked at Stark and Ulquiorra.

Stark and Ulquiorra did not object. They walked to the center and looked at each other.

"Isn't this the reason why Xia Li asked you to go to the human world before?" Stark suddenly asked at this time.

Ulquiorra nodded.

"Sure enough, he should know that we can go further." Stark showed a look of as expected, and then the lazy expression slowly disappeared, and said, "But I will not give up the first place to you easily."

Ulquiorra looked at Stark and said very bluntly, "But now you are no longer the number one besides Xia Li."

Suddenly, Stark was speechless, then he couldn't help but look at Kenpachi Zaraki who was also watching the battle over there, and nodded helplessly.

Indeed, without even trying, he knew that he was no match for Kenpachi Zaraki.

"No matter what, I won't lose to you easily." Stark said again.

"But I will try my best to defeat you!" Ulquiorra said with a fighting spirit in his eyes.

Stark was stunned for a moment, then smiled. It seemed that Ulquiorra had indeed changed.

Then, the battle between the two began.

Xia Li was watching the fight from the side. First of all, neither of them used the Return to Sword. In this situation, Stark was indeed better. His spiritual pressure was much higher than Ulquiorra's.

Then, Ulquiorra took the lead in activating the Return to Blade and finally turned the game around.

But when Stark also activated the Return of the Blade, the battle situation returned to Stark's side again.

Harribel and Nel were watching this scene, they were very familiar with it, because for a long time in the past, their battles had always been like this, and usually at this time, Ulquiorra would be defeated.

However, this time, Ulquiorra also has the legendary Second Stage of Return to Blade.

Kenpachi Zaraki was also watching with great interest at the side, and couldn't help but feel a surge of fighting spirit. Ulquiorra and Stark were both very strong, and he really wanted to start fighting immediately.

However, he also knew that this was a battle between Stark and Ulquiorra, so it was difficult for him to intervene.

Soon, Kenpachi Zaraki's eyes lit up and he looked at Ulquiorra's Second Stage Return Blade.

Before, he could only feel the opponent's spiritual pressure from a distance and didn't think it was very effective, but now it seems that he underestimated Ulquiorra after his second stage of Reincarnation.

At this moment, Kenpachi Zaraki grinned, because he suddenly felt that his future life would not be too monotonous.

Although many aspects of life in Hueco Mundo cannot compare to those in Soul Society, to Kenpachi Zaraki, everything else is fake and boring. Fighting is the only thing he thinks is the most interesting.

Hueco Mundo allows him to continue fighting and feel the joy of fighting, and that is enough!

At this moment, on the battlefield, Ulquiorra, who had completed the second stage of Return to Blade, once again gained the advantage, and... the advantage was huge!

Chapter 496 Ranking

Xia Li was also a little surprised when he saw this scene.

Although Ulquiorra with the second stage of Return to Blade is strong, he did not expect that he could force Stark to this extent.

Sure enough, it was because of Stark's own fault. He was too lazy. Although he had a high level of spiritual pressure, he did not have much combat experience.

Therefore, Stark is also accustomed to fighting in a favorable battle where his spiritual pressure is overwhelming, or fighting in a suppression battle where his spiritual pressure is not enough to crush the opponent but is still higher.

If the enemy's spiritual pressure is the same as his, Stark will be a little anxious.

This is the case now. Ulquiorra's strength after the second stage of Reincarnation may not be much higher than Stark's. In other words, if it was Kenpachi Zaraki who was fighting this battle, he would still have a chance and might even be able to kill Ulquiorra.

However, Stark was simply unable to do so, and the situation took a turn for the worse in a very short period of time.

Seeing this scene, Xia Li couldn't help but look at the excited Kenpachi Zaraki next to him, and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Kenpachi Zaraki came.

Afterwards, Stark will have to fight a lot of battles against the odds, which will make up for this weakness.

Harribel and Nel next to them were more surprised. They only knew that Ulquiorra, who was not Stark's opponent at first, basically crushed Stark after the second stage of Reincarnation.

Second stage return blade, is it so powerful? !

Then, no miracle happened. Stark was completely defeated and appeared in front of them in disgrace.

"Tsk tsk, Stark, you have little combat experience." Xia Li teased, he was defeated so miserably.

For a moment, Stark was speechless. The gap was obviously not unacceptable, but he was taken down without any resistance.

"Actually, you should be able to do the same as Ulquiorra now." Xia Li suddenly said.

"Hmm?" Stark paused and looked at Xia Li.

"However, I can't help you with the Second Stage Reincarnation. You have actually overcome the thing you fear most. The rest can only be figured out by yourself." Xia Li said. Stark's biggest problem is laziness. If he was as warlike as Kenpachi Zaraki, he might be able to complete the Second Stage Reincarnation faster than Ulquiorra.

Stark nodded, perhaps understanding something in his heart at this moment. Looking at Ulquiorra who was still standing there waiting for the next opponent, a different color slowly appeared in his eyes than before.

He will take back this position, even... Stark glanced at Kenpachi Zaraki beside him.

At this time, Xia Li looked at Heribel and Nilu and asked, "Do you want to try anything?"

Harribel and Nel looked at each other and shook their heads. They had just completed the Arrancar, and it was too much for them to face Ulquiorra's Second Stage of Reincarnation.

"I'll do it!" Kenpachi Zaraki couldn't help it anymore, and rushed towards Ulquiorra with a loud laugh.

Ulquiorra looked at Kenpachi Zaraki and didn't say much. Instead, Kenpachi Zaraki said, "Do you need me to give you some time to rest?"

"No need." Ulquiorra replied. To be honest, he didn't waste much energy in defeating Stark just now, which still made him a little surprised.

"Well, I won't take advantage of you. Let's end this quickly!" Kenpachi Zaraki laughed, and then the spiritual pressure burst out of his body. In an instant, the oppressive feeling of the almost materialized spiritual pressure radiated in all directions.

"That monster is so strong!" Nilu couldn't help but say as she felt the oppressive spiritual pressure.

Harribel also nodded. It seemed that another monster was about to enter their organization, and it looked like such a warlike monster.

However, at the moment, it seems that the other party is just warlike, and there are no other problems.

Soon, the battle between Ulquiorra and Kenpachi Zaraki began.

The result did not exceed Xia Li's expectations. If Ulquiorra, after his Second Stage of Reincarnation, met Kenpachi Zaraki before the seal was released, then Ulquiorra would still have a great chance of winning.

But unfortunately, Ulquiorra encountered the current Kenpachi Zaraki, a guy whose spiritual pressure and physical body were comparable to those of a monster.

Ulquiorra's Black Hollow Flash hit the defense formed by Kenpachi Zaraki's materialized spiritual pressure, and was only able to barely break through the spiritual pressure and hit Kenpachi Zaraki's body. The remaining power was not enough to penetrate Kenpachi Zaraki's body.

Even the Thunder Spear was chopped into pieces by Kenpachi Zaraki's huge kitchen knife-like Zanpakuto.

In the end, Ulquiorra had no choice but to be defeated.

But Kenpachi Zaraki seemed a little unsatisfied at this time and looked at Xia Li.

At this time, Xia Li also looked at Kenpachi Zaraki, and after thinking for a while, he condensed Mingjing Shisui in his hand, and then his body suddenly appeared in the air.

At this moment, everyone here couldn't help but observe carefully.

Because this was the first time Xia Li took action after coming out of seclusion. Even though Ulquiorra had seen him block Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's attack, it was only Xia Li's instantaneous action and he couldn't see Xia Li's strength at all.

And now, we should be able to see Xia Li's current strength more clearly.

Xia Li didn't say much. Ming Jing Zhi Shui slowly raised it up, and then in an instant, a giant flaming sword that pierced through the sky and the earth appeared out of thin air.

"Form Four - Burning Heaven."

It is still a simple Four Forms, but unlike before, the current Four Forms not only takes a much shorter time to condense, but also has a different power than before.

Because Xia Li's spiritual pressure now is completely incomparable to the past, it's... a difference of levels!

Kenpachi Zaraki was also looking at the giant flaming sword. It was certainly not the first time he had seen such an attack, but this time the giant flaming sword was obviously much more powerful, and the spiritual pressure contained in it made him feel frightened.

However, he was still laughing, with no intention of retreating. He held the huge Zanpakuto in both hands and swung it towards the giant flaming sword that was cut down in an instant.
