"Voi… Make me shut up? Try it, little girl."

He told her simply, his eyes wide and staring at her, his fists clenching. Moonie's mind was in a turmoil. He wasn't entirely certain how he should go about dealing with this, but one thing was for sure: this girl was a thread to the fight. "Then go somewhere where there's actual tragedy." He informed her, the gaze in his eyes as cold as the dark side of the moon. "Almost no-one on this side was fighting with the intent of harming innocents. Meanwhile…" He trailed off, his super leveled hearing listening as he heard explosions far off in the distance… on ground level. "Much worse things are happening WHILE YOU ARE HERE! PISSING ME OFF! VOI!" He yelled at her, his entire body twitching, the black flames that licked around his body growing in intensity with his feelings.

"AND WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE YOU CAN'T SAVE?!" He demanded, his white orbs the only thing visible on his face, the rest of his body merely a conglomeration of black fire and starlight. "WHAT WOULD THEY THINK? INSTEAD OF GOING TO HELP OTHERS, YOU STAY HERE AND BICKER WITH THIS 'FOOL' WHO'S HAIR COULDN'T EVEN FIT UP HIS A##HOLE!" His voice continued to roar, very unsatisfied. Something was stirring within him, and he could feel himself growling.

"YOU WANT TO GET LOUD, LITTLE GIRL?"

His voice suddenly, and extraordinarily violently, boomed, roaring across the entirety of the plains, a level of sound that would have left most normal vocal chords on literal fire from the sheer force of vibration leaving his throat. "WHY ISN'T IT A GAME ANYMORE? BECAUSE YOU SAY SO! EVERYTHING IS A GAME, VOI! WE MIGHT HAVE OUR PREFERENCES, BUT HOW IT ENDS UP BEING PLAYED IS UP TO ONLY TWO THINGS, VOI! LIFE AND DEATH!" He continued, before roaring out further as he smashed the clone.

"VOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOI!!"

His voice screamed as he realized it was a clone, his eyes beginning to shift slightly. The black rings within them had begun to fade slightly, his eyes becoming boulders as she threw an actual punch into those eyes. The fist flashed forwards into his face, and he merely raised up a hand, placing it around the fist. All across his arm, the black fire was blown out, the black starlight of Moonie's form revealed as it began to crack, penetrated as the black liquid which sustained him thrown out in several directions as away from him. She began to follow this up with a barrage of punches, the scratches that now covered Moonie's arm untwitching as the flames restored themselves, Blast shooting from around his body as it consumed all around her, her clothing and defenses becoming decimated as the force of raw spiritual friction ripped them away into pieces, tearing them up the more she hit him, his unique armor most likely taking away her hands completely from these attacks, bruises appearing all over his torso as her forearms were badly licked by the flames, her hands almost certainly completely destroyed.

Finally, however, she ended with a kick to his head. The kick, however, stopped dead, gravity increasing to exponentially around her foot that she would likely not even be able to move without an exertion the likes of which she had used in her first punch, Moonie's changed eye looking at her from around the foot, his eye wide and unassuming. He looked at her as she began to head butt him, before allowing himself to be dropped, grappling her and throwing the both of them into the waters as she seemed to desire, before hearing what she had to say. "I fear that which is the end of ability. I fear the end of my ability to be me. It is who I am. AND WHO ARE YOU TO CALL ME A CHILD, ONE WHO CANNOT EVEN DEAL WITH A WAR THAT SHE COULD HAVE HAD A VOICE IN PREVENTING?" He suddenly roared out at her, her forehead most likely bleeding profusely from the massive amount of exposure to the blast. It was like repeatedly throwing ones face into sandpaper that was moving at thousands of miles per hour, ripping away everything it touched.

However, she would soon begin to realize that there was something wrong. She would not be able to move. "Voi… Also… that if you were watching from the beginning…. You'd know what water does… TO THIS CELESTIAL BODY!" He yelled at her as he finally gripped her by the shoulders, his body covered now in bruises, the final attack she was attempting to unleash absorbed by Moonie's body as gravity around him began to shift, the momentum of the attack flowing upwards into his head as he gripped her shoulders, most likely ripping away further at her. The amount of Blast she had been exposed to by this point was not something most beings could deal with; simply from the intensity of the level Moonie's body was at, combined with the hyper-focus that he was currently employing, would make even this grip extraordinarily damaging.

His forehead was held back, even as he looked at her. "…" However, after a moment, he released her, throwing his mouth open wide. "VOOOOOOOOOOOOOI!!!" His voice roared, as without warning the water around them began to move. The rocks of the ocean floor that had been decimated by Moonie's presence on the ocean floor also began to rise up, as massive amounts of the ocean began to pour… directly into the Moon God's mouth. "RAAAAAAH!" His voice, deep within him rumbled as the massive amount of nature flowed into his body, the scratches on his body slowly beginning to heal and close up, the bruises that covered him slowly changing back to their normal tone, as the density of Gravity around him changed, so much water flowing into him so fast that it could not keep up, the ocean beginning to rush towards the area to fill the discrepancy.

"You are so full of negativity that I cannot be near--… !" He suddenly gasped, as without warning his entire body sharply increased in Blast energy, his body suddenly shooting far up into the sky. The water crested, attempting to reach up to him as his massive presence rose into the air, his mouth opening. "AH… HA… AH… AAAAAH… AAAAAH!!" He let out, bestial noises of desperation leaving him as suddenly his body changed, a massive amount of Blast firing as he suddenly shot away from the location, so much Blast covering his body that anyone who drew near would likely be decimated from the sheer force of it as he launched forwards, his mouth a mindless howl.

"SHISOME WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU?!!!?"

As the two were exchanging blows with one another Reimu could only grow further furious with the ignorance the male was spewing about tragedies WHEN THEY WERE BLIND TO THE FACT THEY WERE MAKING ONE WITH THEIR DESTRUCTION! "Don't give me such hershey, Nature Iramashsa. You should have grasp enough on things to know that your fighting earlier, had I not jumped in, would have killed the bystanders of this city with berserk the combatants here were going at. It's a given I cannot save everyone, but THAT DOES NOT MEAN I CAN DO MY DAMNEST TO SAVE WHAT I CAN! SO SPARE ME THE DRAMATICS AND JUST STOP TALKING! THE MORE NONSENSE ABOUT YOUR REALITY THAT SPITS OUT OF THAT FOUL MOUTH OF YOURS, THE MORE DETERMINED I AM TO SEE YOUR FACE FIRST IN THE DIRT!" Now becoming further enraged by his call to her desiring to get loud the Shrine Maiden would say this:

"I'M ALREADY PISSED OFF ENOUGH FIGHTING AGAINST SUCH AN ILLOGICAL CHILD, SO YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I'M MAD! DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS A GAME? DO YOU THINK THIS IS JUST ANOTHER DAY AT THE PLAYGROUND AFTER CLASS? I'M SORRY TO WAKE UP FROM THIS DELUSIONAL YOU ARE UNDER BUT THAT SIMPLY IS NOT THE CASE, MJESEC MOONIE VORGUKLIENDID! "

Focusing back on the battle at hand she started to notice some sort of strange bodily reaction occurring with his body. Being the keen observational person she is from years of battle experience, Reimu knew this was going to spell danger if she didn't react quick enough. Equipping herself to the brim with Holy Energy the Shrine Maiden would engulf her body in this as she attempted to lower their effects on her due to her higher collection of dense energy radiating from the Iramasha's core. There were burns and some torn clothing from Reimu's end, but not enough to take her out of the fight and they definitely did nothing short of making her further irate.

"DO YOU THINK I ASKED FOR THIS WAR? DO YOU BELIEVE I AM AN OMNIPOTENT BEING WHO IS SUPPOSE TO BE AROUND AT EVERY POSSIBLE SECTOR OF THE UNIVERSE TO PREVENT BAD THINGS FROM HAPPENING? I'M SORRY, BUT DREAMS AREN'T REALITY! BY THE TIME THIS WAR STARTED, I WAS UNAWARE OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING IN THE HUMAN WORLD BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE! THAT'S WHY I'M DOING WHAT I CAN NOW TO MAKE AMENDS FOR IT AND WILL SPEAK TO SHADIN YUUDESHI OR HAKAI CHIKARA THEMSELVES IF I HAVE TO END THIS!"

Golden orbs were donning out of The Maiden's eye and blood dripping from her forehead, the Iron will of the Guardian Iramasha was impressive to say the least she was willing to to the depths of this war to end it with her power. No matter if it was Moonie, The Kokuryuteshi, Shadow Fall, Monsuta, Shadin or anyone else. This all needed to stop!

However, not phased in the slightest at her body beginning to feel weighed down, Reimu started to focus internally into herself to break this effect across her body as an intense ray of golden light exploded throughout the range. It even went as far as to turn the water from it's blue hue into a golden color. Letting out her own overbearing yell, she'd resist the pull of Moonie's hold on her heavily as she'd go on to stare him directly into the eye. At this point, her energy was fluctuating at an insane level and the forces were able to cancel each other out due to the equal intensity from both opponents; leaving her much unharmed by it.

Yet...something seemed off about all of this. Noticing that he was taking in all of this water, Reimu was taken back when Moonie released his grip and used this chance to Chaos Warp backwards of roughly ten feet to get into a safe zone of sorts to avoid getting caught up in this sudden rush of oceanic pressure. Sucking her teeth with obvious irritation, the Shrine Maiden would then fly upwards into the air to await to see what the Nature Iramashsa would do as she spat blood from her mouth. Fortunately or unfortunately, it seemed as if the male was in pain of some sort and started to let out a series of freakish noises before he was seen bolting it away from the island.

"Well then, it seems you understand what this war is doing and the pain it causes. I'm not entirely sure who this Shisome person is, but you'll understand what it means to have people you love caught up into the flames of this battle. This is what I tried to prevent, this what I'm using my powers against and this is why I will do everything I can until I am rendered into a bloody pulp to repair. Do what you have to protect your loved ones, but don't drag anyone else into it who has nothing to do with it, Mjesec Moonie Vorgukliendid." Taking a deep breath from that short lived, but insanely intense battle, Reimu would take a moment to look towards the sky as major events were occurring all throughout the island.

Paying attention to the burst of light occurring throughout the continent of Australia there was only one being in her mind who could pull off something like this: Shadin Yuudeshi. Her suspicions were seen as confirmed after receiving that telepathic message thanks to the Yuudeshi Network. Shaking her head a bit, she knew a word would have to be spoken with the male after this whole incident was over or even in the middle of the war. One way or another, Reimu was going to confront him. However, for now, it would be better suited to take his offer to use the network. Receiving authorization from Shadin himself to use this external power, The Shrine Maiden would direct this energy towards assisting with the final repairs of the dome around Golden Coast in order to finish the task of sealing this city off from any influence. For with the combination of Reimu's holy energy and the vast reserves of the Yuudeshi Network, even if Eric attacked again, The Yuudeshi Network would the Iramasha Sync would be there to counter him at every turn with the assistance of Ibiki and Tsubasa here.

Staring upwards at the sky and taking note of Tsubasa's manipulation of metal she noted earlier from his Bankai, Reimu then directed the energy to stop the momentum of the colossal sphere of junk heading their way in order for him to use as he saw fit. As the Iramasha Leader began to fly upwards into the sky, she'd lastly use the energy to begin to recover herself back to peak health as she looked back at Ibiki and Tsubasa for one last time. "Use this however you wish. The city is secured, I sense great sense within each of you and I'm assured you can end this battle without my presence here. There are battles still going on, powerful people who need to be spoken to and cities still in peril. This war is far from over, but the fight here is nearly finished. It's up to you two to finish the mission at this point as I've completed my objective of saving the city. I'll give you this last parting gift and wish you well on this final round. Stay alive, alright?" Having finished these words spoken to the two Shinigami Reimu would unleash a large sum of energy from the Yuudeshi Network and Iramasha Sync in conjunction with her holy energy to restore their energy reserves, recover a quarter of their health and give them the edge to see this through to the end.

"Godspeed." With that final word spoken she'd take off at such speed towards the heavens themselves and vanished within a golden light as her presence faded from Golden Coast.

The thing the berserker demon hated was fate it could turn against a demon and that it did some little shinigami not only stopped him from getting the artifact. But she managed to save that captain from the soul society this was really pissing him off the mad one should have killed some shinigami during his time while helping the society. To think about that, Eric thought that was a lifetime ago when the demon was kind demon named Kade Hiroshima just to have that name tarnished no telling what that wizard has done. "Whoa Whoa Whoa.....Eric stop the idiot god freak is gone, I don't believe that iramasha maiden did it much be in-sync with the yuudeshi people. No reason to remain together someone did the deed but once we separate your going to feel some weakness but rephrase it a lot of energy and some lifeforce use that iramasha's powers. Quickly, Eric we can't keep as one together..." Engra thought. Eric looked around seeing that god freak was gone the iramasha runt couldn't have done unless she had help the shrine iramasha had a lot of power. If Reimu knew Eric's true identity she would stop at nothing to put an end to him which she'll become a real threatening problem if she isn't dealt with.

The mad demon was bleeding from head to toe the shinigami had done a lot of damage but really he didn't care about that his true target was gone. Still, Eric was going to have to break a shinigami something he wanted to avoid but with his memory back and his teachings from the past this ought to be fun. "My target is gone oh well hmmmm my anger is growing how dare that iramasha stop the forbidden iramasha from ripping the soul out that so-called god. I could have to use his own powers against him better yet if Hanako hadn't stopped from taking the bloodstone. I could have used the soul destroyer from that bloodstone and destroy every iramasha'power that moon boy had. But I can't waste any time another demon artifact is here within this land and those humans have it. Yet, I can get the demon artifact quickly from those humans then expected it's here my demon powers can sense it but yet a girl of all people is her to stop me. Someone of great importance this ought to be something like that battle I had with the demon queen so what the hell business of defeat this fool. Then onto pleasure a new demon artifact and finding out what it is and what it does so many things for a mad demon to do yet the shinigami is first. The human pinball is later" Eric thought

The berserker demon was about to heal with semi-immortal healing powers did this shinigami believe that he could hurt a berserker like him, Eric was in great pain from healing quickly. Then the demon of berserk madness noticed something that damn iramasha who calling himself god was gone, Eric couldn't believe it that shrine runt defeated him so easily. The former forbidden iramasha couldn't believe it, Eric felt Engra leaving his body their was no reason to remain within his berserk state as the berserker form left him the mad demon was drained a lot. The berserker form took a lot of energy from him but the demon had absorbed much of the iramasha's gravity power using his magic to replenish his energy but still it wasn't easy to think neither of his forms did damage. Eric felt drained after leaving his berserker form the demon didn't believe such pain and loss of energy would exist him and darker half may need time to heal and regroup after this. The iramasha scum how dare she bother with his plans still she was useful for something, Eric will have to face her some other time now the mad demon had other problems this girl from the soul society. The demon was a little weaken after using the moon boy's power to replenish his energies but it was enough to re-empower his demon powers now the demon was ready for another fight.

"A great warrior wanting to test my power???, Perfect I wondering now what my former friends from the soul society had in their arsenal ever since my dealings with them decades ago. Still the moon iramasha was foolish hitting me with that great energy not knowing my true intentions." Eric said. The mad demon was cracking knuckles and transforming his ultimate form with one snap of his fingers his prize warrior was summoned from the darkness of the demon realm but the demon felt some pain. The replenishing powers did work but the demon is feeling pain still how could this possible maybe that berserker form did much damage then the demon realize his enemy must not know of this. "Be careful what you wish for shinigami because I going to unleash the same level of madness and destruction....YOU'LL KNOW FIRST HAND WHAT THE MAD DEMON IS CAPABLE OF" He yelled. He nods giving Zorin her instructions which she departed the woman was preparing Judas Destroyer but the summoned woman needed time to prepare to strike the shinigami down it was a deadly plan. Eric was planning on how of beating this shinigami and then obtaining the demon artifact from those humans until one came into light. Eric used the final berserker eyes which the demon used the final level and activated the wild senses system at a stronger level then the other ones so she should be easy to track. The demon can be greatly able track this shinigami's movements but something was familiar if the demon remembers from the past a shinigami would be doing paperwork. Eric shook his head it must have been a memory of his past as Kade Hiroshima still it was just a memory of peace still the demon will have cherish his past another time.

The mad demon couldn't use the full power of 100% Final Punisher but to show her the same kind of power of what the demon tried to use on Mana. Eric started charging up his energy getting in a full rage and then started firing giant bombs unleashing the final punisher barrage upon the shinigami hitting her with everything he had. With the affinity of hell, Eric started using his energy to create an large final punisher bomb and then hits the shinigami causing a massive bomb-like explosion. The blast radius from the attack was stronger then the one which the demon used on the demon queen, Eric was wondering the fate on the shinigami girl still it might be enough to weaken her. "I need to choose an different path for this fight.....This might be another fight for my well being still the shinigami wants to see me at my best" He thought. The demon prepared an different strategy as this time the mad demon prepared himself with defensive magic now the shinigami was ready for this girl if she survived but his mission wasn't done. The second objective wasn't reached yet their was a demon artifact within the golden coast and those innocent humans had it, Eric was turning his attention to the group of humans. Eric did believed he defeated this shinigami but knowing her strength maybe strong like his this isn't going to be a victory perhaps a lost ye again. Then the mad demon couldn't wait the demon artifact needed to be collected right now...

"I'm ready for a war once again to think a shinigami after the whole soul society stabbed me in the back decades ago with their treason after all my work and service even to the iramasha clan too...a child they sent foolish unbelievable such as waste if this was years ago she might prove herself to me......ZORIN I WANT THAT DEMON ARTIFACT CRUSH THOSE HUMANS BREAK THEIR BONES CUT THROUGH THAT DAMN BARRIER WITH MY POWER INSIDE OF YOU FORGET THE SOUL DESTRUCTION WEAPON.....THE DEMON ARTIFACT WILL BE MINE" He said. Zorin stops harness unleshing her scythe attacking the barrier but the mad demon gave her some help using his breakdown ability at full power to watch his minion a break it apart.

The events in this war were just getting further crazed by the minute. Sensing all of the aura's exploding with prime force around her, Ibiki took note of the briefly lived scarp occurring with The Shrine Maiden and Moon God. The Captain wasn't a fool and knew something external must have came into play for two fearsome foes like that to suddenly stop that brawl. Monitoring the female Iramasha movements, The Menacing Devil Girl further noted that this Angel was a worthwhile ally. This was because she was able to stop that colossal mass of metal from causing any damage to the city. Which meant at this point It seemed that varying sorts of long-ranged attacks were beginning to be utilized in this war; taking notice of a bright burst of light suddenly appearing throughout the continent and further assaults coming from the atmosphere. The Shinigami would have to give the Human World credit: they certainly knew how to wage a war.

"Aye, so I know you have bigger battles to contend with. We'll be more than enough to handle the remaining reinforcements here, Miss Angel. As Captain of Squad 11, I promise to drink the valor from this war and indulge in it's wonderful brew until I'm drunk off battle. I may not look it, but inside, I'm a fierce berserker ready for action and it's high time I get the chance to have such a worthwhile challenge to bask in. Therefore, I won't be needin' 'yer energy. I'll be saving that for people who actually need it." Now opening Sake Sutorīmu's gouge, Ibiki redirected the energy that Shrine Maiden directed at her to store for lately; unveiling that this function of her Zanpukto had the capacity to now double as a storing chamber of sorts.

"Besides, I refuse to die here and I believe my partner over there doesn't have the same intention here. We made a promise that the two of us would stay alive long enough to watch our ambitions and dreams come true for the Gotei 13 and Soul Society as a whole, so it would be quite the misfitting end to let it all come crashing down here. I've goals to pursue and I ain't 'gunna let it end here. So have faith in us and keep the good fight up, Miss. I'll take a shot in your honor." With that said, Ibiki then took a long drink from Sake Sutorīmu while it was still opened and let out a content sigh before giving her a thumbs up salute. "Godspeed, Maiden."

Redirecting her focus back to the fight at hand once done addressing the Iramashsa, Ibiki carefully observed the Demon Lord before her as he seemed to be some sort of regenerator. Bones were snapping back into place, energy was leaving his body and soon he spoke words of coming back to life. There was damage done, yes, but it was apparent she may have to strike harder to make more lasting impressions on his body. The Demon species as a whole was a problematic affair to deal with in combat and it just meant The Captain was going to try with more intensity to harm him further. At the very least, however, she knew he was going to be a good opponent to fight in order to test herself.

"Well, we've certainly gotten much stronger since you've last met. I'm not entirely sure what your history with the Gotei 13 is, but I'm here to reassert our strength." Being able to detect a sudden influx of energy, Ibiki rose an eyebrow as she sensed an absurd amount of energy beginning to grow in the individual. "Oh, but this is what I wish for. You are truly a worthwhile adversary to test my strength as a Zaraki against you. So show me everything you have to offer, and I'll gladly give you a satisfying battle. And from the looks of it, we're skipping the warm up altogether" Sporting a sly smirk by the time Eric had started his attack, Ibiki tossed her sake into the sea below as she cracked her fist and started to have a brighter burst of purple shaded reiatsu gather around her body.

In this moment, at that time, something within the Captain started to amass itself into a dual-jointed force. As within the depths of her body, the likes of Ibiki's Zanpakutō and herself were becoming a united force. They each knew the threat they were up against were dead serious, and so there was no point in holding back; but the unleashing of their Bankai was something they wanted to avoid showing just yet. Therefore, the next solution to such a problem would be to merge Oni-Kyosei's separate reserves of spiritual energy together with Ibiki to bolster her to the point of fighting two Shikai's at once. Being that Oni-Kyosei had the ability to separate herself as an independent force from her master, it was only a matter of focusing and channeling that division to become one.

It resulted in The Zaraki's body increasing in durability as the muscles within her grew more dense, the skin further compressed and her entire skeletal structure gaining the ability to take more damage. This would result in her overall stamina and strength being increased by their bodily traits complementing one another. This cause and effect would produce a slight growth in Ibiki as she was seen growing slightly taller, producing more pulsating veins out of her body and the aura around her body became that much bigger; emitting a faint growl akin to that of a demonic beast. Quivering in the wake of this power, the earth and the sea shook violently as the light from Ibiki's aura stood out in the darkness of Eric's assault; becoming potent enough to be sensed for many cities over as sparks of wild bio-electric energy danced across the Captain's body while her eyes became devoured by a purple light.

"I'll make you a wager." Her voice sounding vastly different with each that was uttered, there seemed to be a sense of Ibiki's gentle tone mixed together with a gruff and far older sounding feminine pitch infused into one accent. "If you are able to kill or stop me now with such a blast, we'll allow you to take over the city as you see fit. But, if you are unable to do so....you'll need to think of other arrangements." Not seeming phased in the slightest by the assortment of attacks heading towards her range, Ibiki held her ground and let off a surly sigh before a large grin emerged across her face. This was the thrill of the fight, anticipation of the unknown and willingness to test her strength to ascend to a stronger version of herself. Never before had Ibiki encountered such a monstrous task, and never before was the Menacing Devil given such a chance to bring herself to a new level of power.

"Let's show 'em: Break - Jinsoku Hitto"

Echoing those words throughout the field, something ignited within the likes of Ibiki. Soon, the bioelectricity that was sporadic across her body underwent the process of compression to become condensed and focused primarily across her arms and legs. Following suit, the vortex of swirling purple aura that consumed Ibiki shortened to constrict these limbs as well. Staring at her limbs, each of them seemed to be vibrating at such an insane rate that it was difficult for her to even keep up with; much less Eric himself. Therefore, it gave off the impression her appendages were engulfed by this electric-like energy and luminous purple light; when in fact her limbs were moving so fast that not even the supernatural eye could easily keep track of them.

What had just occurred? Simple. The unification of Hakuda and Shunpo transpired to give The Zaraki the best of both worlds. This was a special technique that merged these elements into one force to grant the user a small burst of insanely heightened movement and offensive blows. How was it achieved? From the constant barrage of momentum associated through Shunpo, Ibiki was able to channel that movement into specific ranges in her body. Then, thanks to her bodies durability and stamina, transform it into a brief state of constant shunpo release. Coming immediately after, the next phase of this technique would be to take the dense amount of spiritual energy that her body possessed and actually sacrifice it, infuse it into her bodily structure and dramatically bolster her Hakuda capacities. Instead of trying to defend herself against this assault, or run away from it; Ibiki's plan was to use this newly fond technique to simply blitzkrieg through the whole attack with brute force.

"Ready or not: HERE I COME!"

Taking off like a rocket, nothing but laughter could be heard from the Menacing Devil of Squad 11 as she rocketed herself into the sky. Each Final Punisher that came into contact with her? OBLITERATED! Having unleashed the potency of this attack, dozens, hundreds and eventually thousands of these attacks were redirected away from Ibiki and destroyed by the swiftness of her speed working together through the force of her Hakuda and strength. While there was smoke, burns and other similar injuries akin to the absurdly disastrous lava radiating off her fist; there was no time to let such pain stop her. The primary objective was the colossal moon-sized ball of destruction before The Captain's eye.

"JINSOKU HITTO HIGH SPEED IMPACT TECHNIQUE: SETSUDAN KOBUSHI"

Putting her right fist out before her, all of the bioelectricity and reishi that were gathered into her limbs seemed to transfer solely into raised hand; resulting in the aura around her arm increasing two times in size and becoming golden in color as a massive booming sound echoed throughout the idea. What was about to occur? By combining and focusing Jinsoku Hitto into this one corner on her body, it's effects more than tripled within that single range on her body by taking the three other limbs which were using that energy and fusing it into that one extremity. Which is why once the light and electricity cleared from her legs and left arm, there seemed to be a heavy amount of smoke and as it cleared the smoldering char from Eric's FInal Pushier Barrage could be seen on her left fist. Yet, it's pain did no matter. With this technique in effect, a chainsaw-like effect occurred as Ibiki used her natural born speed to tear a line straight down the middle of this mammoth sized attack; hollering with all her might as the kinetic energy within that arm grew further.

"ARE YOU READY!? HERE COMES MY GIFT TO YOU!"

Even if there were secondary effects to this blast, the potency of this slashing fist seemed to be so strong that it even slashed through and nulled reishi within the range of Ibiki to protect her and negate any further effects of The Final Punisher Technique. Soon, it's impact was sent for miles on end and allowed The Captain to increase in speed, summon the needed momentum to accelerate the force in her fist and would attempt to smash through anything Eric would throw. Through all of this collective strength from Oni-Kyosei, Jinsoku Hitto and Setsudan Kobushi; The Zaraki made a pass at following The Mad Demon wherever he hit in order to land a direct blow to the face with her right fist. If this were to make impact? Then every square inch of Eric's body would be consumed in thousands of cuts, the bones within his body could implode, his face could potentially suffer extreme head trauma and the energy within him could even be slashed to pieces to further damage him on a metaphysical level during the duration of this fight to make a critical hit on The Demon Lord.

In fact, Ibiki unleashed enough force within this blow to level the entire city of Golden Coast potentially, but focused it all solely on Eric's body as this was a high-grade technique being released from a Shinigami on par with Zero Division members themselves; so it was going to pack a heavy punch to it as a overwhelming explosion of sound would devour the whole radius of Golden Coast to signify it's depth; unleashing a mound of demonic howls as a result of The Menacing Devil's spiritual energy fluctuating at a high-point.

This was the strength of the Squad 11 Captain beginning to be shown to all.

"SO ERIC ZARATHOS, ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!??!?!"

As the sounds of explosions rang throughout all of Golden Coast and the war at large with Australia, deep within the recesses of the Yuudeshi Network, there was a massive warning going throughout the communication channels associated with it. There were red flags given within the vicinity where their connection to the Iramasha was established. From it's sensors picking up an unknown target attempting to tamper with their efforts, The Network put itself into a Code Red alert. "Priority Individual, Shadin Yuudeshi: Code Authenticated. Protocol YNSA #1345 will now manifest. All related officials, please prepare for the shockwave."

This message was broadcasted throughout Ibiki Suika, Tsubasa and other minds attached to this hive network of minds throughout the telepathic channels, communication networks and other means of warning spread throughout similar organizations alert systems. These were all but few phrases that were needed for the Yuudeshi Network to give assistance to the battle currently occurring within the depths of Golden Coast. Being infused into the sphere that protected the likes of the metropolis, The Yuudeshi Network went into high action to defend itself against such a hazard attempting to destroy the protective seal across the city. Within a matter of moments following that order, a white halo was seen one thousand meters above the city. It was roughly a half mile wide in diameter and length and seemed to be producing a large sum of energy from it from the collective hive of power vested within the Network.

Letting off a strange humming sound, the disk-shaped aura started to spin at a rapid rate before a series of thousands of tendrils were seen coming out of it. Eventually, a majority of them fused until there were only a dozen of tendrils that were roughly fifteen miles in length and width. Their descension to the Earth caused massive explosive sounds to rock the vicinity, but there was no damage done to anyone or property; they were simply the depth of the spiritual energy radiating from such creations.

With that, they started to rotate around the city and form a network of smaller tendrils to help defend the city and take the damage that Zorin unleashed against the shield protecting Golden Coast from Eric's attempt at decaying the barrier. The section of the tendril which was affected was seen as detaching itself away from the main hive of spire-like creations and eventually faded into oblivion to prevent their effort form being comprised. Following that critical moment, the holy energy generating from the likes of the infused shield from the Iramashsa portion of this barrier soon started to activate.

Knowing that the targets were indeed demon in origin and decaying in nature, the Yuudeshi Network utilized this shared connection in order to purge the likes of Zorin, her scythe and the DE Force generating from it. Henceforth, a massive tsunami wave of golden energy was seen coming from the tendril that blocked her path and moved at an insane speed to catch her by surprise. Should she attempt to escape? The Network would have thousands of spikes follow her vicinity as they tracked her movements through infrared vision and energy generating from her body. The same would be applied to even Eric if he attempted to intervene and even have enough potent strength to potentially cripple his regenerative properties if he did get hit. Ultimately, this meant that the newly formed menace in the skies was here to assist the likes of Ibiki and Tsubasa in their efforts to conceal the city. In the meantime, the Network did pick up strange reading from an ancient demonic artifact pulsating within the city. Noticing how Eric seemed to be very defensive of the vicinity they briefly shared before The Squad 11 Captain had jumped in, it could inferred to it's intellect that this was a rather important device.

Therefore, with all of these factors and knowledge calculated into it's final decision, the shield around Golden Coast had a beam of light hit the mystic object in order to encase it within a condensed holy seal curiosity of Reimu Iramashsa's angelic force. From there, it began registering coordinates for the object to be transported to via teleporation in the form of a spiritual gateway akin to Senkaimon. Once these connections were established within the Yuudeshi Network inside of Karakura Central, it's destination was going to be that of the GREMLIN sector of The Yayjuu so they can analyze the rune and attempt to decipher why it is so important to this Demon Lord.

The Network estimated that it should possess some sort of unearthly power if someone of Eric Zarathos's caliber is desperately attempting to seize it with everything in his arsenal. Therefore, it was ah hazard to leave it in this city as it would cause further conflict and leave a tool of mass destruction within the hands of the enemy at hand. Thus, within a few moments of creation, The Demon Artifact had vanished into a portal that would end up within the deepest depth of the Yayjuu's research facility.

Now, with all of these plans set in motion, the only actions left to take were to see what the next moves of the Mad Demon and his familiars would be. The Network was obviously on high defensive alert and was going to do everything within it's power to make sure this city stands in the wake of such war. And what's more...there seemed to be a strange force generating within the ring-like creation within the sky; although it was very faint in nature. After a few moments, it's pulse sparked to life and a figure was seen descending from it's eye.

Appearing in the form of a holographic image akin to the shape Shadin Yuudeshi, but with no color in it's eyes, this mysterious entity gradually appeared in the vicinity where Zorin was hopefully shot down. It seems there would be one final message given to combatants on the field from it's presence:

"Signal from Serial Number #223044 confirmed. The Yuudeshi Network is now assuming emergency state clearance. Signal accepted through routes Y, N, C. We must act as best as we can without causality. This is not the Master User "Shadin Yuudeshi". I, The Network's will, will be assisting to help overcome this critical situation..."

There was something brewing within the depths of DS's heart. A great power was on the borders of being unleashed into the world. Her blood was pulsating, aura becoming darker and a cool feeling soon sank over the once fiery battlefield. It was something that even the smallest of creatures could sense; as the skies seem to darken themselves despite the likes of the Yuudeshi Network devouring the country in light. Vibrating faster, Nami Asthavon's heart was beating much harder than before as the blood within her surged and converged towards the central part of her chest which gave her life. As Tsubasa was busy dealing with the onslaught of the overwhelming assault Dragon Slayer unleashed, The Menacing Devil of the Zaraki Corps had dealt with the Mad Demon and the Yuudeshi Network his familiar; a force far more sinister in nature than anything presently summoned on the field was now on the horizon. And in an instant, it would reveal itself for the first time in countless years.

As the cutting blow from Tsubasa's last strike aimed to end this fight, the curse of fate would not allow the outcome of this to end so conveniently. Without warning, a massive black tendril that was coated in crimson liquid escaped from DS's heart. Clashing directly with The Captain's Zanpakutō , the monstrous strength and blinding momentum behind this would be strong enough to even crack or break his Zanpakutō in such a state. Even with the male's keen eyes, observing a movement like this would be utterly difficult if not nearly impossible to do with so little reaction time to spare. Very soon after that, more ripping sounds were audible to all on the field as they came from the source of this strange sound was generating from The Dragon Slayer's body. In a matter of moments, faint grunts were echoed throughout the battlefield as it felt as if there were an endless sea of demon's being brought to the vicinity, yet no one present at all. It was a intricate sensation with many maddening ends, but the source would unveil itself soon enough.

In a quick motion, a single hand reached out of DS's hand in a swift clench to life. This appendage was covered in Dragon Slayers blood as it started to claw it's way out of her torso. Piece by piece this creature materialized itself; letting off a faint force akin to that of Queen of Demon's, yet so vastly different the deeper one could sense into the depth of..."it's"...power. It was as if IT alone was a source of nearly endless generated energy, but behind this mask there was nothing but emptiness. As time kept passing, the crackling noises began and soon a feminine body was materialized from the blood out of the Royal Asthavon's body. This...force....was hatching itself into the body of female no taller than five foot one. This...shell...was covered in the crimson essence that was Nami; baring her exposed skin for the world to see as she held her arms out wide in a V shaped pattern.

Proceeding the event of this bizarre and mysterious individual emerging into the battlefield, an enclosed eye that was black in color came into being across the female's chest; resulting a chain reaction that caused the tendrils swaying around DS's body to converge and attach themselves to this eye. This phase now ending; lengthy blonde hair extended downward past the demoness's shoulders and slowly, but surely, her gem green eyes pierced the battlefield as a small smile crept across her lips; generating an ominous green aura around The Dragon Slayer as her body and energy were slowly healed by this force.

Slowly, the female would tilt her head to the side, closing her eyes so that this action could give way to her observation the battlefield...throughout the continent. Many forces were fighting, thousands were having the times of their lives, others were having their entire foundation destroyed and paths forever changed. This war, this battle...it was so...enticing. Something within it attracted this being like a magnetic and it couldn't but take delight in the festive show. Not since the battle of Madness City had this creature sensed such destructive aura's converging into one place with the intent to change the world. It brought her such...happiness...to see this freedom as her smiled beamed larger with each passing second of this colossal war of wills.

"My, my. If only the stars and the heavens themselves aligned you to be here, Brother Truth, even a fellow creator would marvel at this sight." Muttering silently to herself, the creature directed it's gaze to the likes of DS as it's clothing was the final thread to come to materialization. The first article of clothing to materialize would be a black hat that had a lavender bow attached to it. Following suit, a length shirt that was a darkened shade of emerald green came into few; possessing with it grey diamond buttons and a similar violet hued collar, although that perplexing eye of hers positioned where her heart SHOULD be was not covered by it.Not too long after donning that garment, a dress with a flowered pattern that seemed lighter shade of olive came into view across her lower body and it was swiftly followed by a pure of blackened boots that had tendrils attached to the bottom.

With the metamorphosis at last complete, Dragon Slayer would be one of the few beings in this entire continent to truly understand the depth of Khala's enigmatic nature and know the TRUE extent of what she was capable of. A very frightening reality was upon Australia with the release of this creature onto to the field; yet it did not seem to have any sort of malice or aggressive behavior yet.

"You know, it is quite uncourteous of you to wander off from the family to have this much excitement, amusement and fun without telling us! Dear me, how cold of you Dragon Slayer! I thought you and I were two hearts as one! Both the moon and stars!" Turning her stare across the battlefield, the demoness let out a soft and fulfilled sigh before gently laughing. "But you're as breathtaking as ever! That look in your eye, the feel of your skin; their simply too much. It isn't a wonder you've attracted these mortals to you like flies to a fire. My heart and soul are just tingling from all of this thrill!"

"But alas, I'm sorry to the Shinigami whom goes by Unabara, I cannot allow that event to transpire." Eyes flashing white, the holy energy which was once on it's way to send aid to Tsubasa had dissipated and was broken down within seconds before reaching him by a cold void. "This battle has indeed amused the Asthavon, but this conflict must come to an end now. Her family has indeed arrived, and I, as her loving sister, won't allow this to go on any further. Nevertheless, be at ease. My presence here isn't for something as trivial as revenge or anything of the sort. I'm simply a form of insurance from our sweet Demon Queen to assist with the unification of our family unit once more! A desire such as taking over that mundane city over there holds no real value compared to the lands which we conquer. It is, however, a means to an end and that end has shown itself to me with this war. So for that, I thank you for being apart of the collective force of magnificent wonders who has helped summoned me here by sheer curiosity to watch you mortals duel with such valor."

Now holding her arm out to the sky, a devilish grin snuck across the face of The Demoness as she placed Nami Asthavon within a emerald hued shield meant to recover her health at a further accelerated rate as the injuries would mend themselves and bring her back to par for the war or to exit as she chooses. "Don't worry, I wouldn't dare imprison you! But if you have a desire to recover, I'd recommend you stay tucked! Not a single entity here shall touch you within it! I promise! We've gotta look sharp if we're to have this reunion!" Seeming more cheerful in the tone of her voice, this new individual turned her sights towards the massive battle taking place with the likes of a demon known as "The Mad One".

"How...lovely. I never thought a spawn such as him would be powerful enough to reach that level of strength. It's a shame he isn't keen enough to master it. His hidden promise is great as my fellow kinsmen, but his direction and heart are so....horrid. What a shame." Tapping her chin, she'd avert her gaze back to Tsubasa before proceeding on with this:

"You've earned the right to city, so don't worry yourself over me raising my hand. I'd suggest you move on to the next phase and swiftly. I cannot promise what my Queen would do to you if she were here. I simply desire for the beasts of this land to captivate me further with their disputes as this wondrous war progresses. The will of man can be a charming source of entertainment, no?"

Ending her speech there, two clicks of her tongue would open up a dart vortex that seemly lead into nothingness began the process of opening inside of the sphere if Dragon Slayer were still contained with it. The decision would be up to her to fall into it; but many familiar sensations pulled her to the direction of either Demon World, The Queen's Palace in London or the battlefield where her fellow brother had awakened. The choice laid on her hands.

"After all, life is such a finite force for these people...and to see them throw it all away for so little is nothing but...satisfying. As in the end, this existence is nothing but a fleeting sense of harsh realities that conclusively lead way into what lies beyond our mind, above this realism and towards the inward circle of absolution that is our dream that awaits us pass our soul's lost eye. Such anguish befalls this world, and such embrace awaits all at the end of it. To see the spirits that walk among us today welcome this finale with such open arms gives this heart of mine...faith."

And with those closing statements, a sense of chill devoured the land; causing the waters below them to turn a pitch black; seemly infinite in depth as is the agony of this existence.

Eric was getting ready for an attack again but something instinctively stopped him it was a strange feeling too something was going to happen. It was really funny because it was that same feeling when the mad demon was collecting the red rune from that museum it couldn't be...the yuudeshi network something that powerful to bring him down. However, Eric thought it was strange like a warning this hadn't happen before something was going inside of him yet the mad demon could feel it but would it destroy him in the end. "Goddamnit, I never thought the Yuudeshi network would stick their noses in my affair it becoming a nuisance that needs to stopped big time" He thought.

Zorin was shot a few hundred times and still her body was being ravage but then the mad demon had something cooked up the demon felt something. Tsubasa was healing himself the soul nexus magic didn't work but then the mad demon heard his henchmen screaming wondering what he could to do help her but the mad one had his hands full with the shinigami. The mad demon looked at Zorin being attacked and then tried thinking of plans of silencing the yuudeshi network clearly this was the second time it was being used on him but now on his henchmen. Eric needed to think of an plan quick the henchmen wouldn't last and the mad one was running out of time, he finally thought of something that could cripple the network completely. It was a risky gamble but the demon of madness needed to make sure if this works then the mad one will have complete control over that damn network. Before the demon could act on it the shinigami brat when on the offensive and the mad demon was open for a good attack coming right at him. Eric was going into the offensive but all of a sudden his powers weren't working something happen and then the shinigami attacked viciously hard by her attack and it was a good one but something was happening.

A strange power was emerging yet the demon couldn't control it the hell was going on as he was bleeding from his face the damage had an impact on his brain. Due to the effect of berserker mode, Eric was in great pain as suddenly unknown memories started to appear some which mad sense and others that didn't. The mad demon started to fall to one knee the demon started feeling some fatigue the mad one was feeling uneasy too the iramasha gravity powers he absorb was growing. But it wasn't gravity power it was something else completely the power growing from within felt calm yet familiar the madness was wondering what this weird feeling of power was. At one point, Eric fell unconscious from the pain as his darker half was trying to figure what happen it must have been the damage from the berserker mode. In his mind, Engra was praying for Eric to get back up but the demon was in so much pain both physically and mentally this wasn't good.

Eric must have taken more damage from coming apart but something else too a weird power was growing inside the both of them it comforting too. Eric started to wake up to see his wife Miyuki and daughter Kristen they were alive yet his darker half couldn't believe it either but they were sadden. Eric started getting back to his feet to comfort them but they started to back away as the mad demon was wondering what was wrong or could it be someone else. "Daddy, I miss you but it finally time for you to let us go please you can't evolve unless you let go of the thing you the most...us" Kristen said. Eric shook his head nothing believing it to be true it was the only thing that kept him going through the good times and very bad times but let go of that after everything. "Honey, Let us go for you to grow into a better mad demon all loving memories of the past must go it holding you back and forces are coming after you....You must survive please my love cherish our memory one last time and let it disappear from your mind once and for all." Miyuki said. Eric was crying the mad one didn't want to this then the demon felt something the yuudeshi network attacking him this was so fucking unfair. Miyuki touch his face they have time for one time kiss and his daughter hugged her father then the mad demon closed his eyes and they disappeared from his my mind. "Goodbye and now...please rest you two deserve it.........E...Engra..........It's not fair how you dare Shadin Yuudeshi and your Yuudeshi network your brother took my family....NOW YOU FORCE ME TO TAKE AWAY MY MEMORIES OF THEM...you think it was funny it wasn't at the least....I'm putting all my resources and power to burning your creation.....THE FUCKING NETWORK IS GOING TO BURN FOR THIS." Eric said.

Eric's newfound power started growing it was unbelievable it wasn't zoa koa energy or the death energy that the demon queen gave him. The demon remembered that he absorbed moon boy's gravity power and turned it into enrgy but this power it wanted to help him. "Whatever is flowing inside of me please help me. First, Kin Iramasha took my family and Shadin Yuudeshi force me to remove their memories...I WON'T BE DEFEATED ANYMORE THE YUUDESHIS HAVE PISSED ME OFF LONG ENOUGH MAKING ME INTO A FUCKING CLOWN A BEAT-UP DOLL. IF THIS THE FORBIDDEN POWER OF MY FORMER LIFE JOSHUA IRAMASHA HELP ME EXACT MY REVENGE ON MY ENEMIES. I REFUSE TO LET IT END HERE SHADIN YOUR DREAMS FOR PEACE ARE ABOUT TO END" He yelled. Engra noticed a vast large amount coming from Eric's body and he started feeling the power growing inside on him and best part it felt good. A surge of great power started emitting from the demon's body as the iramasha barrier started shakening and then exploded into nothing as the mad demon awoke as unknown power fills his body.

He looked at the hologram image of Shadin Yuudeshi it was fueling his angry and his energy base was growing it was unbelievable. Eric's memories of his family shattered like a piece of glass and their was the reason the bastard was mocking it fueling the mad demon with more hate and rage. Eric's eyes were glowing black and with a quick snap of his fingers his body was healed the Yuudeshi network was looking directly at the mad one sensing an unknown power was growing inside him. "You will pay HOW DARE YOU HURT ME NOT ONCE BUT TWICE...YOUR NETWORK IS GOING TO BURN FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO ME....MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS TAKEN AWAY....I trusted the Soul society...I thought they were my friends something I could count on for years it was true bringing peace making an agreement with some of the demon race.....and then you betray me after I saved a captain's life in a top rank security mission my wife and daughter murdered BY YOUR BROTHER AND HE'D FRAMED ME FOR IT AND I LOST EVERYTHING AND NOW TO FUEL TO THE FIRE YOU ATTACK ME AGAIN THIS IS UNFORGIVABLE..VENGEANCE, DAMNATION AND REVENGE FILL MY HEART NOW MY ANGER AND POWER HAVE BECOME ONE.....MY FAMILY THE MEMORIES OF THEM ARE GONE AND YOU ARE GOING TO PAY OF THAT" He yelled.

The Yuudeshi Network started feeling shock waves across from the mad demon's raging new energy it couldn't withstand it defenses. With his new black eyes, Eric saw the heart of the network it was causing him to transform once again into a newer form the mad demon couldn't believe it his former mecha demon powers they're back.

The mad demon wanted to cry it had been so long but the time to look back into the past was over his enemies needed to go away big time. Eric was going to get one shot at time because knowing that bastard, he's got something in store or him but the mad demon wasn't going to fall anymore. He didn't know why but nothing was holding him back now that his full focus was fighting his enemies and not dwelling on the past it would have been nice if this power could have awoken sooner. But now the demon was angry and the yuudeshi network was going to pay for it as the mad demon summoned up his zoa koa energy and his new rage energy. But this time he used his magic gathering energy from two elements from nature from energy and soul all of it placing it into his power. The demon was ready and he was going to target all those barriers and everything the yuudeshi network sent to stop him for once the mad demon wasn't going to be a victim never again.

"GIVE ME THE POWER AND STRENGTH TO EXACT MY REVENGE....SOUL GALAXY ENERGY REAPER VOLTEKKA" He yelled

Eric unleashing an massive super nexus beam directly destroying the rest of the iramasha barrier and then firing directly at network. The massive wide power beam went directly at the yuudeshi network causing an explosion but the demon was angry, Shadin had hurt him in a way the mad one never thought possible. Eric Zarathos truly believed that Shadin Yuudeshi may have destroyed Kade Hiroshima this maybe what his brother wanted him to do all along. The mad demon didn't care if it destroyed the network or not the most important thing on his mind was making everything Shadin Yuudeshi cared about a broken memory. He looked at his opponent and then thought she wanted wondering if he was entertained the mad demon didn't care anymore but she was an worthy opponent.

He charged with all his strength he gave a violent shockwave punch right into her face bashing her the ground but the demon remembered something all that power. The humans were unprotected the barrier was gone and the mad demon was angry but still the demon of madness thought humans weren't his target they looked scare though. Eric felt tired walking over to his comrade Zorin wondering if she was alright she was still breathing that was good but she was a still a friend.

"You'll pay for this Shadin Yuudeshi now I'm mad demon hellbent on bringing you down....I swear you'll pay for what your brother has done" He said.

Artist: Michael McCann - Song: Icarus - Word Count: 1357

Was this the end? Everything in this place seemed to be leading to her demise. Her wasted attack, though it was heavy, not having the desired effect on his opponent... All signs pointed to the door of death. No! This couldn't be the end. Her body remained weak, and her energy was spent - but she could still continue! Nami was determined for this. She didn't want her time here and her pride as an Asthavon to go to waste. She... was representing them. She was their very essence and represented them here in Australia. Dragon Slayer wondered to herself how she could be so stupid... she took her chances and put all the energy into an attack that would barely even harm her opponent. 'This is ridiculous... She thought. How could she be considered a strong member of the Asthavons if she wasn't going to beat a guy like him? She wondered this for a long time, and as her assault ended it felt like everything was going in slow motion. It was a feeling that couldn't be described... she was convinced there was nothing else she could do. Although suddenly time felt like it sped up once again, returning to normal pace as cracking echoed from within the dust from the explosions she created. Hmph... From here, her form would simply fade back and out of the GOD mode... Kana fading away into nothing but a shell of darkness as the Dragon Slayer emerged once again from the darkness as it dropped off of her body like water. She could no longer keep the energy to maintain that form, she needed to rid of excess energy wasting.

From within the smoke, a figure launched out that had the appearance of Tsubasa. Grasping her sword tightly, she'd pull it out of the ground instantly and swing it as the being came closer. At the last second, her blade stopped and pulled back, throwing her entire body backwards to stop the motion of the swing. That wasn't him! Her body stumbled as she struggled to keep her feet, nearly falling over multiple times before regaining her stance. How did she know it wasn't him? For Nami, it was simply a sense of analyzing the reiatsu signatures. That was one of the major downfalls of cloning techniques, as soon as you've got a clone, it will automatically either have no or little spiritual essence when compared to the original. It becomes easy for someone such as Nami with her amazing energy reading skills to be able to figure out which being is the original... and which is the fake. However, even with being able to read this change of being, little time was able to react. Before she knew it the man had appeared right before her eyes, the red intense glow of Tsubasa's eyes pierced into her as he spoke the words that seemingly were ready to end this. There was no way to stop this... Nami's energy was depleted because she was stupid and wasted it all on a lucky shot for an assault. He spoke about no innocent lives being hurt here. Why would she care? She didn't care about the innocent lives, if they got in the way that was their own fault. That wasn't her concern. So why did he apologise...?

As the sword strike leaped forward from Tsubasa, time felt like it stopped suddenly. A rumbling in the chest of Nami echoed, pain began to spear through her very heart as darkness quickly overcame the area. Dragon Slayer's insides began to be filled with pain as she coughed and her chest continued to rumble. The sword kept getting closer and closer, but what was the sensation happening within Dragon Slayer? A searing pain echoed from her heart as blood began to drip out the side of her mouth, her very chest being ripped open from the inside, a massive black tendril covered in Nami's blood extending right out of her heart and clashing with Tsubasa's sword.

AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!

Her chest had been literally ripped open and the blood from her heart began poring out onto her black corset and dress she was wearing. Blood soaked her entire torso area as more darkness and screaming was being let out from her body. "ARGH, UGHHHH." Before Dragon Slayer could even realise what was happening, a figure began to materialise in front of her. She had blonde long hair and a green aura surrounding her body, green eyes and a wild look appearance like none could ever imagine. In this instant, Nami had known exactly what was happening. She ceased all forms of painful grunts and simply laid there breathing heavily as this being began to tear it's way out of Nami Asthavon's heart. The pain was absolutely intense, but she just has to sit and wish it would end soon. The tendrils were wild and unpredictable... Khala Asthavon, the Heart of Devata was coming.

"I hate this part..."

Nami had stayed silent as she emerged naked and talked, she had waited until her clothes had finally formed around her body before taking the chance to say anything to the being, Khala, that had suddenly emerged from her heart. All pain from the sudden emerging had stopped as the torn open chest that was open only a few seconds ago was closed over, as if it never happened. A green aura shrouded of Nami now as she could feel her body begin to fill with energy, life filling her body slowly as wounds she had obtained in this fight quickly became healed. She looked up at Khala now who was standing above her, Nami laying on the floor and cringing a little. Sprouting words about her running off? There was no use in fighting against the heart of Devata's words, perhaps it was true in a sense. Pulling her body back, she'd lean up against a piece of rubble that had fallen from a nearby building, a small trail of blood still dropping from her mouth. "Tch, you know how it is, Khala. Next time I go to fight someone of his caliber, I'll be sure to let you know and deal with it yourself then." Dragon Slayer would close her eyes for a moment before letting out a ever so small smile. "Yeah, my skin and aura must be good. It attracted you here just in the nick of time. Maybe our hearts are connected after all, I mean, you did just emerge from mine."

The relationship between these two was indeed... interesting. They were family, and Nami respected Khala as she would any other family member. Although she knew highly of her origin and how deeply she was involved with the Asthavon family, for her to be here was troubling. Troubling because of the person she is, it was hard for Nami to believe that she was here on "peaceful" terms against the shinigami. She remained still leaning up against the rubble still as the green shield and energy began to grow stronger and stronger, healing Nami at a much faster rate than it was before. She could feel the energy that was sapped away healing quickly and the open wounds covering back over with fresh new skin. A sigh of relief escaped Nami's body as her body shook from the feeling of fresh wounds fixing themselves. She wouldn't continue her conversation with Khala any longer, it was already unusual for her to speak as much as she had.

Turning her attention to Tsubasa, she'd stand up and stare down at the vortex below her feet leading to three possible places, each one under her control where she could go. Before entering, she'd raise her voice as her wounds were nearly completed healed so that Tsubasa could hear her talking. "I do have family. You're standing in the presence of one right now. But... I am Mana Asthavon's sister. Perhaps you deserve to know that." Nami would take one step forward before falling into the abyssal portal below her feet. The portal would suck her up and transfer her to the location in which her brother, Kiriel was, Bendigo Victoria.

EXIT THREAD

[THEFROST] · Mon Dec 30, 2013 11:18 am

To say the situation was different from before was an understatement. Time changed things didn't it, the emergence of a powerful creature from the other side of Australia. Tsubasa had managed to stop his blade within an instant, deciding not to strike partly due to a feeling within. Tsubasa's sword play allowed him extremely good control that most could only dream to accomplish. He used a shunpo and created distance, his eyes looking at the two. Byakko and he had a job to do, he moved on now, it was almost time. Tsubasa was the one whom had to make the message, the message for the people. The Gold Coast was a victory for them, this was the case and he took the demon's words in. "Very well. Tsubasa was an enigma, the blood lust he could muster was enough to make a demon shudder. His eyes turned to the giant present in the midst of this battle. The ball if still in motion would freeze as he came towards it, metal was his to command. It didn't matter if the blade was free, his eyes remained steady on the metal. Tsubasa had a duty to perform and this was going to be a piece of the larger puzzle. Tsubasa's role was to seize the future for the Gotei 13, the Shinigami had hope before them. But not one had the nerve to seize it and take what the future would bring. Tsubasa had done this so often it was almost something of a talent. The cage that had been around him, the cage of a murderer something he'd lived with. Had been opened and potential had been unlocked that had been missing. Tsubasa moved forward, his hand moved the sword giving it a flick the metal was cut into hundred of tiny pieces that didn't move. A spark went through them, as he slowly created Nanobots.

Thousands perhaps hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of small spec's appeared. Tsubasa tilted his head and they flew all over scattering. The creatures were capable of going into realms, but they were hooked up to a speaker and kido based tech he invented to pass messages between realms. And to give a report if in the middle of a combat zone, Tsubasa had a duty to perform. Ibiki had a fight of her own, his eyes narrowed as the nanobots zoomed around filling the air like a swarm. Destroying them would only result in two times the amount taken coming back. The only way to stop them was to kill Tsubasa, a task that was harder then it seemed to most. Some flew over and stationed themselves above Ibiki acting as camera's so Central 46 could see the events unfold. As for Tsubasa he inhaled and walked towards the city now as the metal around it came to life. Forming a shell he'd had enough time to protect them. His eyes went back on Ibiki and Eric, if he stepped in she wouldn't be able to prove what she needed to.

He would have faith in her as he got ready to make his report, letting a soft breath escape his lips. His voice would be heard everywhere as the Nanobots flooded every place they could, sending a message to everything. The Beast of Karakura, the warriors fighting valiantly. Tsubasa hated speaking, it was something he considered worthless. Talk was for those who wanted political gain, he was a killer and a swordsman. So he would much rather act and do things then simply sit and discuss them. Seizing the future was part of his personality that couldn't stand the thought. The ideal that he would sit still, the fact was that Tsubasa didn't like talking about things. Doing things were far more his speed and making sure they were done. His Zanpakutō remained drawn, while the electrical energy was drawn into his body. Restoring his lost strength, creating the nanobots had been an easy task thankfully. Tsubasa had pools of energy that were simply massive.

"It's been sometime, since a Shinigami stood here.." When was the last time that a pure blooded Shinigami had taken a stand on behalf of the Gotei 13, who fought for the balance and stability of the people? "Today we've seized hope, it was not lost...just needed to be grabbed. Tsubasa was making it clear, everyone could hear him from those on the ship where the Beast and others sat. To those still fighting, Tsubasa's nanobots gave him a freedom to move about. " We've sat in the background, it's time we stand among the others...and battle those who would harm the balance..As we are meant too, it's time for the Shinigami to stand." Tsubasa was stating the job they'd failed to do for a long time now, it seemed as though they'd backed out of the position that they were meant for. Ensuring the balance, protecting the stability of the Gotei 13 and the world as a whole. Hope had been seized and the future was now for their taking, to resume the job they were meant to. "Their is something I will do, I will surpass Yamamoto Genryuusai..The former Head Captain, whom was known as the greatest Shinigami. Balance and stablizing the Gotei 13 are my goals, I will fight for both.." Tsubasa didn't sound naive or childish, he was going to do this. Fighting to surpass the man whom was called the best, it was a goal. Something he wanted to do.

"Ibiki is fighting now, fighting for her own reasons and goals..Those in the Gotei 13 whom can watch, do so...but those who wish to stand with us and seize the thing before them.. Come the Gold Coast is in the hands of the Gotei 13." Tsubasa turned from the nanobot's that were set to say those things, the message was heard through the entire Gotei 13 as he sat down now. Recovering his lost energy as the message transmuted across the entire Australian landscape. Not one person couldn't hear it, the Nanobot's did their duty and transmuted it well. Several began work on his injuries, Tsubasa's wound were healing rapidly as he almost seemed perfectly healed.

His crimson eyes watched the fight between Ibiki and Eric, this was a one on one fight. Ukitake didn't tell him why, but he understood. If a person had the drive and fight in them that Ibiki did, stepping in would soil their honor. And it was something he wouldn't do it yet not without good solid reasoning. Tsubasa wouldn't let the mad beast kill her, his frame sat calmly as his reiatsu began to return. Watching this battle through and the Gotei 13 getting to watch it, his lips formed a small smile. "Now they can see what I've always known Ibiki..your true strength." Tsubasa was pleased they were acknowledging her power finally and letting her take over for the failure of a Captain. Ibiki and he didn't talk often, but both had reputations that made them stand out. His eyes looked on calmly as the situation played out. This was a battle for more then just fun and Ibiki must of known it.

It was a battle for the future, a battle for the hope..they seized.

Now that she had finally been freed from her captive slumber, the first few individuals that Khala met were rather dry to say the least. Tsubasa, the first person in question, didn't seem as if there was much to be said after all when finished addressing such as that male. Analyzing the movements and speeches that the likes of the 12th Division Captain made, it seemed he was more focused on keeping the likes of this rock, of this island and of the name which was the Gotei 13 in order. Rather...trivial subjects to her, but rational none the less; at least to an extent. No time for conversation, no time to bask in the glow of this war; it was simply move, stab and kill. It was utterly boring to her. Hopefully, as her heart began to open to the world, she'd find such suitable beings who had more to offer to the table in this grand quest of hers.

"Hope, hm? Those are such bold words to declare in the face of reality. The grimness of it all, the weight of it all; you are indeed naive to come under the assumption such words can easily sway the actuality of our circumstances. In due time the facts of these existence will ultimately swallow you whole sooner or later. In this place, in this world; there can be only a an overwhelming sense of despondency and dejection. Oh well. I was expecting something a little more amusing, but if this is all I get I better make my way through this dance of death and skip right to the good part."

Once done stating her viewpoint on the announcement that Tsubasa had unveiled to the entirety of the Gotei 13 and all of it's allies on the battlefield, nothing but a lighthearted giggle could escape her mouth as she genuinely thought of it as a futile game of delusions. When staring into the abyss which is the hundreds, if not, thousands upon tens of thousands of years: would he be able to make such claims of hope and stability? In a fleeting moment within this world, it may indeed be possible to claim a semblance of a serene equilibrium, but who long can it last?

When one takes an objective look into the future, even if a being is unable to say for certain how the future will look in terms of pin-point measurements, is there not a chance for great disharmony to be had once again? Even if the obstacles in his path of control, peace and power were destroyed: what would there be left after that? It's simply and utterly a fruitless endeavor to pursue. For one day, one day far into the future; all of these goals, all of these achievements, all this ambition will be devoured and consumed by the endless black void and nothing will cease to be after that as nothing can last forever. So why fight it? Why resist? This is the one thing Khala could not grasps her head around when it came to such actions as the one the Captain had declared. The only thing a creature can do is relish in the movement, savor the sweets of the present and march on within this aimless world until it's fowl air consumes and decays them with it's harsh truth's.

Alas, such thoughts could not be mulled over forever. Hearing the breath and words of the Dragon Slayer come to life, the Demoness swiftly turned her back to Tsubasa and went to give her sister such undying attention. "Such a dull and lonely heart is the lackluster shell you fought against, Nami. The next time such an event transpires, I'll be sure to come to your side sooner to dispel such bleakness!" Swaying her tendrils in many tendrils, the creature before Nami soak up everything she spoke before easing into her own relaxed smile. "The heart is a powerful thing, Nami. Never forget that it can give you strength or consume you with such weakness. It can give you the wonder of courage, or the dishonor of cowardliness. Despite all that I am, I'm still not sure that which gives my heart it's true power after so many centuries, yet I've become knowledgeable specialist in games of the heart."

And with that, she'd pay witness to the finally words that dear Nami Asthavon would speak before falling into the abyss which was that eternal gateway below the Royal Demon's feet. Laughing ever so slightly, it felt exhilarating to be revived in such a way to see her dear kin grow in such a way before her eyes. It seemed that during her time away, Miss DS had indeed grown quite a bit as she didn't recall her being this outspoken in her past. So with that said, Khala had turned her head around back to Tsubasa to say this much: "Nami is quite the loved one, is she not? Hopefully our Queen and Head Sister will have the same feelings as I did if she ever hears of such thing. For to battle her will take every ounce of strength you possess in your body, and it seems you've exhausted quite a bit of that today before me and her."

Turning her attention briefly to the likes of Eric Zarathos once she was finally done making commentary towards the Shinigami, she rose a bit of an eyebrow due to sheer curiosity based on the fact the demonic male before her seemed to be radiating a stronger sense of power than she previously thought. Accessing the circumstance at hand, Khala briefly turned her attention to the Yuudeshi Network transporting some sort of ancient runes of Demon World into the sky before dissipating.

Taking place in what would seem like a millisecond, the likes of Khala's presence had swifted dramatically from the height of the heavens in the sky; to the Earth of pain below. With a quick gaze of the eye, The Demoness felt drawn to Eric's range because of the heartache his soul spilled through the agony he had indeed endured throughout his time on Earth. If such a simplistic rune in the eyes of that which is connected to the creator could satisfy The Mad One, than a gift from the overseer of Demon World would far surpass and remedy this circumstance for him.

"Oh wicked demon of such damnation, do not give me such cries. This world is unjust, and only seeks to punish you for what you are. Ye' have a tasted the foul taste of truth, and ye will be atoned for it as well." Speaking such words into the mind of Eric Zarathos telepathically, if allowed time, Khala would place her hand on the back of the maddened Demon if he should so allow it to. From there? It was but child's play for Khala, The Heart of Touketsu, to reconstruct the rune that Eric had been searching for. No, she was not able to take back the elder rune which the Yuudeshi Network had taken, but she was able to give Eric something better: a rune constructed by her own demonic prowess.

(Khala is referring to these runes shown here: Ancient Runes of Demon Remake. Eric may have some of them now, but Khala remade a different set for him crafted by her hands and essentially sealed inside of his body for him to take out whenever he pleases.)

If allowed to peer further into his heart, Khala would have a sinister grin come into motion across her face as The Ancient Runes that the Mad Demon had spent his entirety of time on Earth searching for would be transferred and made three times more potent than the original he sought. Why? This was the heart which was connected to the creator of Demon's. Such a feat is not without it's grasp, and if such a treasure could ease the heart of the wicked demon, there was no reason not to bestow this gift upon him. In a matter of moments they were all crafted, developed and formed by the architect of Demon's and hopefully this would be the gems he so desired to attain.

Having performed this act of compassion, she'd allow him to do as he pleased as she was seen taking off like a emerald rocket towards the direction of the sky; despite radiating no energy and hopefully remaining out of the detection of the Yuudeshi Network with how swiftly she moved and being masked by the overpowering might of the fighters whom were brawling within the vicinity. There were bigger fish to fry, there were larger views to stand upon and there were many interesting hearts and souls to encounter in this war as she stared upwards at the sky; smiling ever so gently as she viewed the likes of a mystical object appearing above the Earth. It radiated such power that was quite familiar in her accumulation of knowledge about the living and Spiritual realms. It signaled that something within this war was truly sparking the fans of torment and it was indeed the correct choice to step foot into earthly soil once again.

"Oh Rosary children, you know such despair, but haven't acknowledged the fact that wealth of reality within this existence will not bow to your whim to destroy. Cry, scream and holler as you may might; it will not budge, it will not be erased and it will not good away until it's ready. There is nothing you can do in the face of such actuality. That is simply the absolute of this world." Echoing those words to all within the region as she flew further into the heavens themselves, in a flash she was nothing but dissipated sparkles of light and had presumably taken off to another battlefield; leaving nothing but a trial of coldness and ominous demonic aura in her wake.
