Jūshirō Ukitake walked with hasty steps, the meeting was to begin soon and it would be a disgrace if the actual Captain-commander was to be late. An ominous wind fanned him as he passed through the last courtyard and pushed up the doors to the hall. He felt a stab of relief as he saw that Kyoraku was the only one that had arrived. Jûshirô frowned as he realized what this meant, that Kyoraku was here so early wasn't a relief, his friend had never been able to fit time, except for emergency's and dangerous situations. This ensured Jûshirô this was more than just an petty attempt to attack Soul society, especially since Kyoraku had this special ability to foreseen the deep meaning of things.

Jûshirô inclined his head at Kyoraku and Kyoraku nodded as a reply. Jûshirô glanced at Kyoraku, he wore his usual clothes, cherry blossom cape upon this white captain uniform, the only thing noticeable was his unusually sober face expression, not even Jûshirô who had known him for countless of years could read what was happening inside Kyorakus head at this very moment. Jûshirô proceeded shrugging and took his place in the Captain-commanders spot.
Both Jûshirô and Kyoraku had been offered to be Captain-commander but Kyoraku had solemnly declined the offer, meaning Jûshirô was more fitted for the job. This was just a cultured gesture of course, in reality Kyoraku just spared the unbelievable amount of work and passed it over to Jûshirô. Jûshirô didn't mind in all honesty, he knew Kyoraku would decline and he had gotten used to the routine of being the most influenced man in Soul Society by now. Jûshirô stared at the doors thoughtfully, his mind seemingly distant, now he just had to wait for the captains to attend.

The gates were open, yet invisible to the outside world; if you were able to see it, however, you could see massive amounts of fire and molten rock absolutely covering everything. Deep within this heated world of chaos and darkness lies a room where he awaited, awaited for the day where he could swing the gates open and launch the forces of the past on the world of the living. Within this, all the most powerful Shinigami that had ever been deceased were gathered, being forced to fight even if they didn't want to. They were loyal though, standing there, waiting for orders from their so called ruler. Myto was standing there, deceased fifth squad captain. He was wearing a long sleeve black turtle neck shirt on his upper body with a blue short sleeve button down shirt worn over top of it; worn open. On his lower body he was wearing blue jean pants with a black belt that has a golden buckle to support said pants and was wearing black combat boots with regular white socks on his feet. "Keh, the only thing worse than fighting and dying once is doing it twice." Myto said and than looked around; they were all conscious for the most part; but knew that they could be completely controlled at a whim if they didn't cooperate.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

The familiar sound of myriad small bells ringing almost rhythmically could be heard just outside the doorway to the captains' meeting hall. A single push of the door gave way to the immense form of Kenpachi Zaraki, curiously carrying the scabbard within which his Zanpakutou rested in his left hand rather than passing it through his belt. He regarded the Captain Commander and Captain Kyoraku with a blank stare, holding his irritation towards his being afternoon nap being delayed firmly within himself. His eye patch, as always, was firmly held in place over his right eye and obscured half of his gaze from the view of the others.

He simply took the place where, traditionally, the captain of the eleventh division would stand in the hall to begin impatiently waiting for the others to arrive. In the back of his mind, he could hear the quiet snoring that made it quite apparent to him that Zaku was not missing out on the nap. He shook his head inwardly, a slight smile coming to his face as he recalled that not even the Captain Commander who stood there now had knowledge of the new harmony between the two of them. The smile vanished a moment later as the thought occurred to him that he could very well be doing something much more enjoyable at that moment, but he was quite certain that this meeting was of particular importance. "Why do these meetings always happen in the afternoon?" He thought aloud, not realizing that he had actually said it.

[Hunderas]

Jin stood outside of the tall buildings of downtown when he heard the voice come over his phone. "Hmmm, I need to get back to the soul society. I was hoping that I would get to stay a bit longer here in the real world." Jin put on the dragon mask that he just bought from a side street vendor and walked down the street turning at a back alley. Making sure that no one was around him Jin pulled out his zanpakuto and swung it into the air. "Open." the senkimon opened up before Jin and a Hell Butterfly came fluttering out of it. "Now how long has it been since I seen them?" Jin walked into the precipice world and the gate closed behind him.

[ANBU]

Kazuya walked through the Soul Society arriving at the meeting hall shortly after the captain of the 11th Squad, Kenpachi Zaraki, pushing the door lightly and walking inside his mouth as always hidden by his mask over the bottom half of his face, hiding his expression. As Kazuya arrivewd he heard Kenpachi asking why the meetings were always in the afternoon, "It is probably so that everyone is awake and the squad should already be occupied enough not to need their captain with thewm at the time" he then said as he stood where he had known to be the position of him the captain of the 3rd squad. there the few scars on his body easily seen under his captain's haori having unlike mosg captains worn no upper body clothing underneath.

[GreyCat]

Taichi drifted in after Kazuya, making no more noise in his motions that wind fluttering through the drapes of an open window. He held his arms like a monk as he glided into position; across his lower chest with his sleeves hiding his arms, a lazy smile on his face as he incline his head at the other captains in greeting. "Come now, Himori. Not everyone can afford to be relaxing now," he commented in response to the 3rd division leader. "Thanks to Kazanagi, the divisions are in an uproar. My poor squads are working overtime; increasing patrols, delivering all the messages of panicky shinigami and even the maggots are all riled up in their nest. Most annoying." He shook his head.

"I had just turned in for the day too, late night you know," he said, shrugging with exaggerated effect and shaking his head solemnly. His haori fluttered a bit with the motion. "It's a shame I won't be able to finish my nap. I suppose Zaraki agrees with me on that point, true as it is."

[Hunderas]

Jin walked out of the senkimon into the Soul Society. "Hey where's everyone at?" Jin said to the first Soul Reaper he came upon.
"Everyone's in a panic from the message earlier. Hey do I know you from somewhere?" Jin knocked the Soul Reaper out, and hid him.
"Why yes I should." Jin made his way towards the captains meeting hall. He walked into the meeting and walked up to the third captain's spot. "Excuse me you're in my spot." Jin said pulling off his mask to show Kazuya that it was the previous third captain of the thirteen court squads. "I think you know why I'm here, and its not to fight." Jin said looking up at Ukitake.

[Altαir]

Hajirō had sullenly shuffled behind his captain in attempts to look as miserable as possible. He made some shuffling noise; it echoed under his ears only, the rest seemed too jovial to care. Perhaps he had thought the day miserable, or maybe it was that attending a meeting wasn't something he really liked. Continuing his streak of utter sadness, he shuffled to his position, lazily slouching in an uninterested fashion. The room had a tinge of chill in it's air, and the smell of cleanness filled Hajirō's nostrils. It seemed very foreign to him.

His ears perked to hear out some conversations with the captains. His own captain seemed to be discussing about incidents related to Kazanagi. It was then, when someone entered the room. Hajirō tried to make a connection of the unmasked face to someone he knew, but he couldn't remember.

[ANBU]

Kazuya was about to the reply made as he noticed a figure walking nearby telling him he was in his spot, noticing Hajirō standing nearby he decided it would be easier to let the man stand nearby at least for now. As the man took off his dragon mask Kazuya recognized his face instantly, "hm.. I'm sorry Jin San but as you should know when I became the squad's captain this place and the authority of captain was given to me, however standing close should allow some reminiscing shouldn't it?" he then said calmly his voice seeming kinder than it would have been aimed towards any other captain level shinigami in the room. "However despite your statement and our knowledge of you I will warn you if you came here with the intent of causing anything that may harm our squad my skills have become more sufficient in my time since having took the role of captain.." he then continued his voice becoming little more than what was necessary for Jin to hear as he spoke the expression on his face showing how serious he was about this statement.

[Fake]

Jushiro watched as captains and lieutenants took their respective places in the room, the lieutenants standing slightly behind their captains. Jushiros gaze ventured throughout the room, he saw several grim face expressions, others annoyed and disturbed. Jushiro closed his eyes for a split second, why do you have to cause us so much trouble Hideki he thought, grimacing. As he opened his eyes, a masked figure was present at the door.The man went over to Kazuya, seemingly completely careless of where he had entered, and told him to make space, quite mild actually.

As the man removed his mask, Jushiro recognized the man with shock and their eyes meet. "I think you know why I'm here, and its not to fight." Jin said mysteriously, Jushrio narrowed his eyes at the former captain, trying to read his sober face for any secrets. Jushrio considered his options, either he could dispatch Jin or either allow Jin to assist them. They could indeed need yet another one with the power of a captain if they were going to engage in a battle with Hideki and the deceased shinigamis, though not even Jushiro knew if he could trust Jin after his betrayal, but there was no time to consider, they needed power and that soon.

"Jin Ratiou" he called solemnly, so everyone could hear him clearly. "I will speak with you afterwards, for now you can remain here, however, I may accept your sword but do not take for granted that you'll remain in Seireitei after the battle with Hideki is over." he said troubled. Some lieutenants had grabbed the hilt of their sword and they hesitated before letting go. Jushiro felt all eyes being directed at him, they excepted him to speak, and he would give them exactly that. "There is no meaning for me to explain the situation as we all share the same knowledge and we shall not take Hideki Kazanagi's words lightly, therefore we must defend Rukongai at any cost." Jushiro said with hard determination. The others in the room looked stern, yet determined.

"There is also another matter me and Kyoraku have discussed.." Jushiro eyed Kyoraku and Kyoraku eyed him back as an reply.
Jushiro opened his mouth "As you all know, the legendary captain commander Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto is buried within a temple outside the barrier of Soul Society as he had always wished upon his death. His body and soul was sealed, therefore he isn't among the unfortunate shinigamis that have been reanimated but we suspect the attack on Rukongai is just a diversion to reanimate Genryûsai.." Jushiro said, forcing the words out. He continued, "The Soul King was kind enough to place two of his esteemed Royal Guard's to honor Genryûsai at his death, and they would indeed be more than an tough fight for the deceased shinigami, still.. I can't ignore this." he paused, taking a breath.

"Kazuya Himori, his lieutenant and the 3rd squad will defend the temple of Genryûsai, a battle is not guaranteed though we have to be wary." he shifted his gaze to Taichi "The 2nd squad will prepare an ambush as the 11th, 7th and 6th squads will act as our frontal force when defending Rukongai." he ordered. He exchanged a glance with Jin, "Hmm.." he considered. "As for you, you'll have this one opportunity to prove your worth, if you would any how betray us again you'll be executed on the spot" his eyes narrowed slightly "You'll support the 3rd squad, under Kazuya's wing."

He let out a breath, then continued "As for the others, wait until further notice from me." he finished the meeting with a "Dismissed."
He left the meeting hall feeling tired and troubled, he had to get more used to his ordering position, especially under these circumstances. "Quite the speech, didn't except you'd be such a talented commander" Kyoraku said comical behind him. Jushiro shrugged, "Sometimes it just gets me" he said with a forced smile.

((Myto Orrik have been ordered to lead the assault on the temple of Genryûsai and an amount of Hidekis other revived shinigamis have been ordered to attack Rukongai. I will control an former (Several thousands of years ago) captain that will assist Myto along with an amount of soldiers. Final Fantasy, you may control the scene where Myto is chosen as leader yourself, if you like. Basically Myto's order is to return Genryûsais body to Hideki.)

[Final Fantasy Revolution]

"Myto." Myto's assumed superior and resurrection master said to him, he looked up at the person and awaited what they would say next. "You will lead an invasion on the temple of Genryûsai. I care not for the amount of soldiers you lose nor for any of the riches you may or may not find within the temple. Above everything, you [i]will[/i] return Genryûsai's body to me and you [i]will [/i]do it swiftly and effectively within one day." The superior said and Myto stood from his kneeling position. "Keh, I didn't die so I could be given orders; but since I'm not given much of a choice as you control me." Myto said, and than started for the gates since he knew what his objective was. "Send anyone else you want boss man, but they better be able ta keep up." Myto explained and then walked out of gates.

[Hunderas]

The meeting ended just as fast as it was started no debates were made everyone just followed orders and did as they were told unlike the days when Genryûsai was in charge. "Well it seems like Jushiro knows what hes doing, ain't that right third seat Hajirō Shirogane? I don't forget names that easily and its only been ten years. How much could've changed since then." Following after the Captain and lieutenant, Jin seemed out of place. "Well then 'Captain'," Jin said bowing slightly "What will you have me do? Oh, yes I almost forgot did you learn anything since I left you guys alone?" Jin said in a more serious tone.

[ANBU]

Kazuya walked out as one of the first people to leave for their posts as Jin talked, "Well naturally I learned if you mean in skill or Suishō's true bankai but I doubt this question is of those.. I have not spent as much time as one would think to the riddle of why a captain would attack his own squad, all I've thought of so far would be to strengthen our resolve and try to make us not rely on those stronger than us.." he then finished as he walked towards the 3rd division's Barracks to inform the squad of their duty, "and Jin san.. when we arrive I would like you to choose a suitble position to scout and ambush the enemy if they come, if there is a mass force the ambush would likely be needed to split them down the center.. I'll send some seated officers over to help keep your ground during an ambush however if your skill is the same as it was then I doubt you'd need such help in a close range battle with those from earlier lives.. would you?" he then asked his voice similar in tone as to when he talked to his previous captain inside the meeting hall.

[Altαir]

"You flatter me," was Hajirō's mechanical answer, however he felt different inside. He hadn't really liked his captain when he was 3rd seat, but he hadn't liked many people, bar Captain Himori and his grandfather. His primal instinct to fallow Captain Himori kicked in when the two left the room after a single order from the Captain-Commander. It was a really quick meeting, however urgency calls for swift action, so he wasn't surprised. His mind raced as his pace quickened, the two captains talking on about things he shouldn't really care about. He was used to the usual scenario - Captain Himori was always in conversation. It was a bit depressing, but it fit well with Hajirō. He didn't really like to talk.

"... gotten better..." was a phrase that stuck with Hajirō among the conversation. Had he gotten better, just as his captain had in 10 years? He knew he trained daily, but he never really achieved a new level of power. He was still exceptionally good with kidō, but he never really considered bankai. It was becoming the "rage" within the lieutenant group - ever since the captains have become more powerful than previous captains, the lieutenants were looking to get better too. When one achieved bankai, the rest wanted to do the same. But he knew he wouldn't reach bankai until a few more years.

A gust of warm wind rushed over Hajirō's downcast eyes; the only time his pupils had a twinkle of brightness in them. He heard chattering with familiar voices, the sounds that help one rest. As he entered the 3rd Squad Barracks, he had a warm smile on his face. Of course, it disintegrated almost immediately.

[GreyCat]

Taichi exited with the same silent motions he entered with, and his sister Kiku, the lieutenant for the second squad, filed out behind him. He quickly sorted through the problems he faced, and started verbalizing thoughts as soon as a plan hinted it's existence to him. "Kiku, we can't let any part of out duty go fall short because of an over site," he mused. "Internal security is as much as a priority as is external." The pieces of his mental game board started ordering themselves. "Teams 17 will be assigned to work with team 3 in the nest to keep order. Parts of the militia will be temporarily assigned to squads 11, 7 and 6 to prepare for the defense and ambush. Most of the other teams will continue regular duties and help cover team 2's patrols."

"Sir?" Kiku ventured. Team two and the patrols were here responsibility. If another team was to cover some of the patrols, it mean he had plans for her team. Taichi gave her a slight smile.

"Sorry Kiku, but I have a special assignment for you. I need you to divide your team as you see fit, pulling form team five." He held up his fingers as he described his plan. "First, I want you to cover soul society in a net, focused not one delaying an assault from Kazanagi, but only on detecting it and sounding warning. Possibly groups of three; that means your best sensors paired with a shunpo expert from team five and another of your choosing. They are to alert us of any threat. I don't trust that Jin..." They moved in silence for while, Kiku waiting for Taichi to finish. "Anyway, I also need you to lead small groups with team 4 on reconnaissance. Utikate-sama can use all the intel he can get. On my end, I'll be preparing the militia for the ambush. Go." She nodded and vanished to issue his orders.

[Hunderas]

"Hehe, I have no answer to why I attacked, myself that is a mystery we will never figure out. Hmm, as for a position it would seem smart to try and surround the target as quickly as possible, but then the fact comes into mind that we have no idea where they will come from." the trio walked into the 3rd squad barracks. "Now as for my skill level, I still do my daily workout if that's what you're asking, but my sword skill might be a little rusty." the surrounding 3rd squad members had shocked and hatred looking faces on them, one of the lower ranked 3rd squad members came up to the captain "Sir what is [u]he[/u] doing here?"
"Now that's not very nice I can hear you."

[Asriel Dreemurr]

Kenpachi had since left the meeting hall much less irritated than he had been when he had arrived. He was still a bit pissed about the nap, but when he arrived back at the squad eleven barracks he was wearing that wide smile of his that only showed up when he was anticipating battle. As he stepped in, a familiar little girl with pink hair ran up to him with a cry of "Kenny!" before jumping into the air and landing perfectly on his back. Yachiru turned about and clung onto his back, pulling herself up to talk to him over his shoulder.

"You're happy Kenny! Did the meeting go well?" She asked, the perpetual smile on her face accompanied by the usual excited expression that came to her whenever Kenpachi was smiling.

"You could say that," the captain stated, turning his gaze over the other members of the eleventh division in the area. "One of the biggest problems with a fight is being solved. We don't have to find our opponents, they're coming to us! Split up and find a place somewhere in the Rukongai where you can get a good view. We'll just wait for the enemy to come to us and once we know where they are we'll just start fightin'!" With that said, the whole of the squad was quickly gone from the barracks, leaving only Kenpachi and Yachiru behind. After a few moments, Kenpachi turned about to exit the barracks, the anticipation of a damn good fight evident on his face as he sprinted down the roads off towards the Rukongai.

"Where're we goin' Kenny?" Yachiru asked, a truly confused expression on her face as she was used to giving her captain directions.

"There's a high cliff off this way that you can get a really nice view of all Rukongai from. I figured we'd just wait there so as soon as the enemies start showin' up we can just get right down into the fray."

[ANBU]

"Zanjutsu.. well If i remember correctly you only used that type of fighting in an emergency didn't you.." Kazuya said just before noticing the lower ranked squad member. "[u]He[/u] is here to help, or atleast that is what he claims and what would seem to be his intention though if he attacks I'll deal wth him alone.." Kazuya then said his voice serious as he releaqsed a small amount of spiritual pressure to show the squad that sucvh advancs were not to happen. "We have been assigned to protect the old Captain-Commander's tomb to stop the enemy from aquiring his body and/or soul to use against us, Hajirō you take the seated members below 6 and all others with us to form a rear guard, your skills should make you able to match any level of opponent that comes your way and make our men capable of striking blows into even a captain level opponent, I'll take Seated Officers ranked 6 or higher to form a frontal guard with our old Captain Jin positioned fopr scouting/Ambushing somewhere nearby where he could conceal himself.. Hajirō if you need any help at the rear guard after the assault starts send whoever should be able to arrive the fastest to get however if there is no frontal assault or only a very weak one I should be able to help you myself." he then said as he walked further into the barracks, "Hajirō you and Jin start your way with the men I'll catch up after doing something" he then says before walking in further to place a limiter on himself.

[Fake]

OoC: He died several thousands years old btw =P.
Fantasy, feel free to command the attack.

Several hours later..
The forest was dark and the air damp, each corner was crowded with hidden deceased shinigami, among them Myto and another mysterious man. "I can't believe that Kazanagi chose you before me?!" the man said in a rough voice, spitting the words out. The unusually muscular man had long grey hair hanging loosely, reaching over his neck. Several scars adorned his body, obviously sword cuts. As the rest of his body, his scarred face had extremely muscular features to it without a glimpse of skinniness. His upper body was naked except for a dark cape that held together on a single string, on his lower body he wore typical black trousers with sandals on his feet. "Me?! Rikuto Kato, the seventh squad captain!?" he said, anger flaring slightly in his eyes. it was obvious that he was completely controlled and felt an sudden urge to kill his former comrades. He fingered the crimson red hilt on his Zanpakutou, "Easy, easy now, Kumashikon [i]Bear Fang" [/i]he whispered impatiently to his Zanpakutou.

[Final Fantasy Revolution]

"Patience, I would rather not lead this attack either; but we are unfortunately being forced against our own will and convictions. What I'm saying is, if you would be kind enough to please keep your voice down we could possibly get an upper hand here." Myto explained to Rikuto Kato, a forced to fight soul just like himself. "In a few moments we will be attacking this temple; find the body at all costs and by all means do not get caught up in living, as you are already dead there should be no problems with dying again." Myto explained and then stood up. "Attack." Myto said to all and all the deceased shinigami appeared from the darkness to attack the temple and hopefully acquire the body that the temple held within. Multiple deceased shinigami started to take down current shinigami and they were drawing closer to entering the temple.

[Hunderas]

"Well well lookie here guess I'm in charge of the frontal squad until the 'Captain' gets back. So you 4 come on we have to get there now." the 3rd to 6th squad members were looking a little concerned on the order the Captain just gave them to follow there old Captain and fight with him. "Don't worry I fought my last battle against the Soul Society long ago. But now all that matters is to protect old man Genryûsai's tomb. So you can follow you're old leader into the front line of battle, or you can just sit here and cry, showing me that you learned nothing from me leaving." Jin turned and left the 3rd squad barracks, the 4 Soul Reapers soon followed.

Few Minutes Later

The five of them appeared at the front of the tomb.
"Alright, you guys do you're thing like the 'Captain' told ya. I'm gonna conceal myself for now. I'll be watching." With that Jin flash stepped away.

[Altαir]

Hajirō silently nodded to a Shinigami standing behind him, and then the Shinigami whisked herself away, leaving a small turbulence of wind behind. He contemplated a bit, then applied the sunglasses perched on his head to onto his nose. He had to be prepared - what if the enemy has some sort of trick? Could they really win? Perhaps he really did need the anti-depressants. He was already presuming worst-case scenario in the most simplest of battles. He shrugged off the thought, and then shuffled his sleeves. He didn't need to release, yet.

He looked over his shoulder at those behind him. He knew many of the members of his squad very well, ever since he became lieutenant. The were all strong, they just needed some pushes in the right places. He went up to them to explain how he wanted them set up, and explained who they were fighting to the best of his ability.

"Just please do remember to keep safe. There will be injuries, and if you cannot battle anymore, please do move away, as you'll only be in the way." He said last, before dispersing them. When no one could see, he shuffled in his robe sleeves, and produced two pills. He put them in his mouth, then subsequently produced a water bottle, with water silver-clear and gleaming in the sunlight. He drank some water, then sighed. They wouldn't work, anyway.

[Fake]

OoC: Kumashikon explodes when it slams into an object, however, only when Rikuto channels power into it. Text f***ed up.

A white army marched towards Rukongai, at each step of the army a cloud of dust whirled up. Scout shingamis from afar spotted it and even from a distance there was no mistake, Hideki's army approached. The shinigamis strengthened them self by building a barricade of warriors, in a straight line. All of them had unsheathed their Zanpakutou and stood in prepared stances, all of them willingly risking their life in order to defeat their opponents.
The 11th squad had been positioned as rear guards and they taunted the cloud of dust approaching with unnatural thrill for action, even though this could possible mean the end of their careers. Tension grew as the steam of dust got closer, closer and finally it towered over the both armies. The respective forces collided, spreading a sharp blast of air. Swords clashed and those unlucky fell to the gravel, covered in crimson red blood. Kidou and hadous was blasted across the battlefield and chaos broke out.

Meanwhile in the temple..
As the attack was commanded, Rikuto took the opportunity and rushed towards the temple with his Zanpakutou drawn, his eyes exuding a vile glow. His cape fluttered in the air as he accelerated, he twirled his blade and called out "Erupt, Kumashikon!". The blade reformed into an golden spear, with three silver laces at the top. A smirk graced Rikutos lips and in less than a split second, he leaped.

He flew through the air, directing his hair in the opposite of the winds pattern. He directed his glowing spear against the ground where most shinigami fought, and began twirling it, preparing to strike with his shikai. When the his shadow fell on the shinigamis fighting, they looked up to find a man airborne over them. Rikuto slammed down into the ground, and at the mere touch of the spear the ground erupted into an explosion. The explosion radius was greater than most hadous and it gave off a blinded red light. Heat concussions of the remains from the explosion splittered throughout the battlefield and engulfed both his enemies and his allies. As the smoke faded, several shinigamis lay on the ground under Rikuto, clutching the remains of the gravel. Rikuto snorted, "Pathetic Vermin!" he cried as he proceed with assaulting his next targets, creating fierce explosion at each strike.

[ANBU]

Kazuya finished placing the limiter on himself roughly minute a minute or so after the others left, moving quickly towards the temple he saw what looked to be explosions, "so it's begun.." he muttered to himself as he used his shunpo to get closer. "Bakudō # 30. Shitotsu Sansen" he said as he arrived his palm crackling with yellow energy before it formed into a triangle with spikes that flew towards the man attacking his squad, weaker than his usual proficiency with that bakudo due to his limiter though enough to at least hold them in place for a couple seconds if it hit properly. Kazuya then raised his hand in an open palm aimed at the man who had been striking his squad and causing the explosions, "Hadō #31. Shakkahō" he then said as a red ball of spiritual energy formed in his palm before firing at the man who he aimed at again with less than his usual strength in Kido due to his limiter.[b] [/b]"You dare strike my squad with such ease!?" he then roared as he shunpod above the middle of the temple in the air his rage clear at the attacking forces, "Kurasshu, oyobi kurasshu no hantai! Rokku! (Crash and crush opposition! Rock!)" he then said angrily as he drew his Zanpakutou releasing it into it's weaker shikai form the handle growing longer the blade changing shape slightly and becoming more rock-like.

[GreyCat]

"And so it begins," Taichi said quietly to himself as the reports form all across the battlefield began poring in. It wasn't his time to make a move yet though, Kenpachi and his subordinates had matters firmly in hand on their part, and the main force of the opposition, Kazanagi's elite fighters, had not yet made themselves shown their faces nor made themselves know. But the moment they did, Taichi and his ambush would be ready for them. Until, it was his place to wait, not act. He was a little concerned, however, that Kiku had not yet returned with news on Kazanagi's actions.

Not that he was afraid for his sisters sake and well being. No, she was his lieutenant, and had more than proven herself through the decades he worked with her, and she was capable of outrunning just about any shinigami save for himself, the captain commander and maybe one or two other captains. And her zanpakuto made her more than suitable for her role. Seishin no muon, Silence of Spirit, was amazingly powerful, capable of completely erasing her presence and that of those she touched once activated; be it sound, spiritual energy, smell or sight. What worried him was that Kazanagi had so effectively concealed his operations. Very worrying indeed.
