SHE SAID, "THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US"

"Don't sound so desperate, Soutaichou."

She muttered, her expression somewhat glum, even for one who resigned themselves as some kind of genie who only eliminates problems. Since she had come back so soon, both sets of training had been an utter waste of time, but not for obvious reason. She started to pace past Yujimura, her hands clasps behind her head.

"Don't pitch a fit, your precious pawn is still alive. He just pissed me off was all. Now that I've answered your question, what are you up to? Why are we in Soul Society?"

Yuji stood in the clearing with his arms folded, more than likely waiting on his new accomplice to show up. What could be taking him this long? After all, he was supposed to be directly behind Yuji the whole way through. When a figure passed through, Yuji smirked. As he quickly found out, it wasn't quite Hikaru, but Asuna. Not to say he was disappointed, but he wasn't all that excited to see her. After all, he wanted to see Hikaru's talents so that he could get more in depth with the plans for infiltrating the 13 court guard squads. She came through the portal, spouting some sort of nonsense. Whatever it was, Yuji had not the time to figure it out. For as soon as she got to the point of stopping, another portal opened.

Seeing as this portal wasn't created using Yuji's new invention, it would surely be picked up by the soul reapers in the Seireitei. That was no good. Yuji spotted the familiar face immediately, instantly becoming impatient with the unwanted intrusion. That portal had to be closed quickly, so Yuji sprang into action. With his quick reflexes, he bypassed the arrancar's attack, seemingly dashing straight through him. In reality, the shinigami had used a flash step to its full potential. By doing so, he spun in a 360 degree twist, leaping up into the air. After drawing his katana, Yuji combined his brute strength with a violent burst of his spiritual pressure to suppress the effects of the garganta. This way, it would be impossible for the computers in soul society to detect.

Unfortunately for the arrancar, he was able to be picked up. Yuji was able to modify Asuna so that she wasn't anything different from the other souls wandering around in the Rukongai. With that fact being as evident as it was, the solution for this dilemma was simple. This arrancar had to be disposed of quickly, otherwise, Yuji's entire cover would be blown. "Arrancar... why are you here?", asked Yuji. In another burst of furiously moving feet, he was at the arrancar's left side. With a back handed slash, he aimed directly for the outside of the arrancar's left knee.

" You know I've never been in one of those, so I had to have some fun. " The fun he was referring to was the fact when they moved, their own reitsu produced a path for them to travel upon. So it was only natural that he exploit the full potential of this discovery. " I had to write my name, just couldn't pass that up! " He was exiting the Gargantua backwards, getting one last glance at the " Hikaru " that was glowing from his movements, etched into the black empty space. Finally stepping on out, he was still laughing. Turning around to face the others, it was stopped abruptly. Apparently while he was writing his name, there were some new arrivals, one which ended up with Yuji starting a fight. " Oh.. " Tilting his head, he tried to grasp the situation but gave up just as soon as he started. There was no point in trying to figure out, because by the looks of it, it was over as soon as it started. " You want help.. or.. you got this? " It was a rhetorical question in his mind, figuring it wasn't that much of a challenge for him. If he did decide to accept his offer, well then he would just look to other arrancar who had showed up. He had enough faith in his friend, knowing that he wouldn't need help.

"Unlike the our other encounter, I don't have time... nor the patience to fool around with you.", said Yuji. The firmness in his tone was thought of someone who felt insulted. In a way, he was insulted. Not one had he been attacked so abruptly, but his entire mission was on the verge of being destroyed. It was all simply because this arrancar felt the need to show up and pick a fruitless fight. This time, Yuji had no intentions on letting him survive. With someone as reckless as this running up, Yuji figured out that he needed to tie up all loose ends. After striking at his opponent's legs, the shinigami lifted up into the air, somewhat retreating in the opposite direction of this attack. Already, this shinigami began to feel like this situation was dragging on too far, so there was other choice.

Turning to face the approaching attack, Yuji snapped forward, in this case, downward with his sword reared back as far as it would go. With a ferocious slash, this cero was cut like butter. It didn't end there; He continued the long and powerful strokes. Each one of them was enough to cut ribbons out of the earth itself. Pretty soon, the attack was reduced to nothing more than a spark. Now that the attack was canceled, Yuji began a nose dive toward the arrancar. Assuming he was still on the ground, Yuji placed both hands on the hilt of Katsuki and pulled her back to the right of his body. With all the strength in his arms, he flung forward. It looked as though he were swinging a baseball bat, for when he opened up his wingspan, the sword was in his left hand.

This wasn't a striking attack, seeing as Yuji wasn't even on the ground. There was a slicing wind force that approached the arrancar. The slicing was audible, whistling as it inched closer and close to Yuji's opponent. The speed of this attack could be measured by it's sound, and judging from that fact alone, the attack was moving at close to around 80 mph by the time it left Yuji. This was his drifting blade attack. By manipulating the wind currents, Yuji was able to direct the destructive force of his slashes from many awkward angles. However, in this case, it was a head on attempt.

Without waiting to see the result, the shinigami made yet another quick move. He'd end up standing on the top of a stone that was lodged into the earth. From there, he sheathed Katsuki and watched.

He hadn't planned on getting involved, relieve that Yuji had ignored his offer to help. That didn't matter to the man attacking though, as he summoned several gargantuas, and brought hollows into the fray. That was fine and all, he was sure Yuji would handle them easily. But they didn't just go after Yuji, the arrancar having sent them at him and the other as well. With a sigh, he reluctantly prepared himself to fight the beasts. It wasn't something he wanted to do so soon, but for the numbers approaching him he had no other option. Placing his hand on his blade at his side, he closed his eyes and began to focus. To everyone looking at him, it would appear as though he was just standing there doing nothing. But as the hollows approached, the first one would make its way towards him, it would find itself severed in half. A few more would approach, and they too would end up cut into two from various parts. The entire time this was happening he was simply standing there in that same position, not moving or anything. What the hollows didn't know, was that they had been placed under his illusion, along with everyone else around him inadvertently.

It wasn't his intention to use this power so soon, but the situation certainly called for it. Hollow after hollow would attempt to harm him, but just like the ones before them, they would be sliced to shreds. Eventually all the hollows sent after him would be destroyed, and all that was left to be taken care of was the gargantuas. He would leave those to Yuji, seeing as he was the scientific man, and would have a way to take care of them easily. So with all his foes taken care of, his appearance would suddenly move. It had looked like he was frozen in place before he ended his illusion, his hand dropping down to his side and standing up straight from the slightly crouched stance he had taken ready to attack. A smile on his face, he just looked around as if confused, like he had missed what just happened. " Where did the hollows go? " His breathing was heavy, an indicator he had grown out of shape while in the living world. But a few more fights, and he was sure he'd be back in top form. Still, the didn't prevent him from still acting stupid about the entire ordeal.

The ending to their fight was a bit anti-climatic for him, with Yuji just ignoring his pleas for death. That was no good, you couldn't just ignore someone's request like that. So with a smirk, his form vanished appearing behind the arrancar. " Yuji, how rude to simply just deny the man his request. " He unsheathed his blade, and before he knew it, it was being thrust at the man's back. He was hoping to pierce his chest, and end him just like he wanted. He wasn't done there though, no not in the least. He couldn't just leave behind the body, that could give away their position. So holding a palm out, he began to do a kido. Not needing to do the incation, he just let a wave of flames shoot out from an open palm. The goal was to completely destroy the body, and leave behind nothing but a pile of smoldering ash. If the man was still alive he had two options: either die like he wanted, or move out of the way and do whatever it was he felt he needed to do. Either way it didn't matter to him, as long as he was out of their hair.

SHE SAID, "THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US"

She would have acted if she hadn't been so shocked at the complete futility of it all. Even she announced herself before she went for their throat. He was far too weak to have even thought of such a way to die, especially going against Yujimura Hitsauke. She was a rare breed who could say she learned her lesson from him. In turn, he was the only being stronger than her she'd acknowledge in this life. She pat on the floor at his corpse as it disintegrated, striding past without a second thought.

Thoughts flew back to where she was, why she indeed was there. In her self made containment she could feel something on the rise within Yujimura, but that had been the extent of it. In several minutes she'd seen two fairly strong shinigami he wanted to test out, all whilst telling her nothing. Now that Asuna was here, she would be the last thing standing between Hitsauke and an aggressor. They'd never get the chance to face him. Suddenly...

"Soutaicho. Do you have any extra Shihakushō lying around?"
