A bright moon hung high in the sky, like an eternal lamp, casting endless silver light that illuminated the boundless sea of sand.
The shining white giant city also radiated dazzling white light, not to be outdone, complementing the silver moon and forming a breathtaking night scene.
Whoosh—
"Reiji! We finally succeeded, I feel my body filled with power!"
At this moment, an excited shout came from inside the door, accompanied by a large amount of white particles floating into the room like snowflakes.
These particles quickly condensed into a human form.
Aozaki was dressed in the pure white robes symbolizing the ruler of Hueco Mundo, wearing a delicate crown that once belonged to Baraggan and had been reforged by Aizen.
This was precisely the unique attire of the Hueco Mundo Emperor.
However, before he had a chance to respond, a green figure left trails of afterimages, rushing out like lightning.
A face wearing an antelope skull mask slammed into Aozaki's abdomen.
The force of this blow was even stronger than before!
Aozaki couldn't help but compare, yet he still smiled gently as he stroked the girl's long hair, every movement showing his doting affection for her.
Feeling the powerful force coming from his abdomen, he did not panic.
Instead, he skillfully used his own strength and technique to counter and dissipate the force, sliding several steps across the ground before easily stabilizing himself.
"You can't bump into others like that in the future~" Aozaki said helplessly, stroking the girl's hair.
"I know, I only like Reiji!" Nelliel replied happily.
Is bumping into people because of liking them?
What kind of strange habit is this?
Aozaki couldn't help but roll his eyes, this antelope knight was starting to headbutt him again.
He had witnessed the power of this headbutt countless times.
Recalling the first time he was hit, completely unprepared, he was directly knocked from Las Noches to the Great Hollow Forest.
Fortunately, his body was far beyond that of ordinary people, and he did not suffer any substantial harm.
If it were an ordinary Captain-class Shinigami, Nelliel would probably be scared and kneel beside a pile of minced meat, praying for the other party not to die.
Nelliel is actually a pretty good person, but sometimes she's a bit simple-minded and always acts without thinking.
However, Aozaki was a person who knew how to cherish women.
Others couldn't endure it, but relying on his own excellent physical condition, he let her bump him as much as she wanted.
And... she really seemed to only bump into him.
Thinking about it this way, this behavior seemed more like a unique little game between lovers.
Aozaki gently helped up Nelliel in front of him, his gaze sweeping over the delicate girls in the room.
From the outside, they didn't seem to have many obvious changes compared to before.
However, if one looked closely, they would find that the Hollow hole that once existed on everyone's body had now been replaced by a dazzling jewel.
Aozaki looked at Harribel and Nelliel, a satisfied smile on his face, and nodded in approval:
"Hmm, your fusion is perfect."
Hearing this, everyone looked sideways, they still clearly remembered the location of the two adults' Hollow holes.
"Reiji-sama, please... please don't say such things."
Harribel felt the strange gazes from those around her, her cheeks flushed, and she shyly lowered her head.
After all, among this group, only her and Nelliel's Hollow hole locations were the most peculiar.
"I seem to have gained new power."
As for Nelliel, she didn't care about others' gazes like Harribel.
After quickly putting on her clothes, she tightly gripped the Zanpakuto at her waist, her eyes sparkling with excitement, and she smiled at Aozaki, saying:
"Reiji, Reiji, let me try, how about we have a fight?"
Hearing this, Aozaki stroked his chin.
After a moment of thought, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards, revealing a slight smile, indicating that he didn't mind.
After all, it was normal to want to find an opportunity to test one's skills after just gaining powerful new strength.
Every time his strength increased, he had an urge to find someone to fight.
However, looking back, he found that he couldn't find an opponent who could rival him.
This feeling of invincible loneliness made him feel a bit helpless.
"Alright, although I don't really want to fight you guys, since you insist, a sparring match is fine."
Aozaki took off the crown on his head and casually tossed it onto Harribel's soft large bed.
He didn't want anything to happen to this thing; if it accidentally broke, Aizen would definitely be furious.
After all, this was a work designed and forged by Aizen himself.
Recalling a past experience, Aozaki couldn't help but shake his head.
That time, he had merely accidentally damaged a robe designed by Aizen himself, and as a result, Aizen chased him for several spiritual miles.
This guy was too petty, it was his good luck to have a broad-minded friend like himself.
A gentle breeze softly blew Aozaki's white robe, making it billow.
He beckoned to Nelliel and Harribel, who were standing on the sand sea, a faint smile on his face:
"Come on, let me see what kind of power you've gained!"
Harribel and Nelliel exchanged glances, a hint of excitement and anticipation flashing in their eyes.
They simultaneously reached for the Zanpakuto at their waists, ready to accept the challenge.
"Conquer him, Tiburón!"
"Sing praises, Gamuza!"
Aozaki, who was posing on a small sand dune, seeing this scene, blurted out:
"You're going Arrancar right away? Aren't you two going to get familiar with your current power first?"
"Hmm, in such a short time, our state hasn't gotten much stronger, and fighting Reiji with this level of power is meaningless."
Nelliel shook her head, a hint of determination flashing across her face.
She and Harribel simultaneously raised their Zanpakuto, and a powerful Reiatsu erupted from their bodies.
The Arrancar watching the battle felt the impact of this Reiatsu, and those with weaker strength could no longer bear it, beginning to gasp for breath.
They felt as if they were being crushed by an invisible mountain, making it difficult to breathe.
Starrk and Ulquiorra exchanged glances, understanding the immense power of this Reiatsu.
They simultaneously released their own Reiatsu, trying to resist this immense pressure.
However, what they didn't expect was that even they felt a bit strained.
Fortunately, they managed to block it in the end.
If they couldn't block it, that would be too terrifying, would they have to use Arrancar to block it?
"Those two women, their Reiatsu has actually reached such a level."
Grimmjow said, enduring the immense pressure.
He didn't need protection for now, but he could still withstand the pressure.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with anger and unwillingness.
"No wonder they haven't accepted my challenge lately, what exactly is going on?"
Grimmjow asked through gritted teeth.
He felt slighted and was confused by this change.
Starrk gave him a strange look, seemingly finding him a bit adorably foolish.
Even he, this lazy bum, and the young master next to him who didn't care about anything, knew about it.
This guy actually didn't know!?
Is there really nothing in his head but fighting!?
