Chad vs Yammy-A Desperate Struggle (103)

Now, before we get into how Sora would beat the black out of Yami, we must first go back to roughly about five minutes ago.

So while Sora was prepping himself...

Somewhere else in Karakura Town, the Arrancar had arrived.

Yammy had used his ability to suck the soul of anyone who got a bit too close.

Chad looked at the man that towered before him.

Yammy Llargo—an Arrancar who lacked the ability to think for himself. A brute.

Yammy tried crushing Chad under his boots, yet Chad was able to push the beast away.

Ulquiorra, who was watching the scene nearby, looked at Chad. His spiritual energy was not high, yet it wasn't low either. Still, mid-tier trash.

"You just don't know when to quit, do you?" Yammy sneered, rolling his shoulders. "Guess I'll have to beat that dumb pride outta you!"

Chad exhaled slowly. His body burned, yet he was ready to prove himself. He wouldn't be as useless as he was during Rukia's rescue. He wouldn't be the guy that lost to a Captain.

He would win.

As those thoughts filled his mind, his arms began to glow.

Black and red energy spiraled around his right arm—once Brazo Derecha de Gigante, now evolved into Brazo Derecho del Coloso.

His left arm pulsed with violent crimson—no longer just Brazo Izquierda del Diablo, but Brazo Izquierdo de la Extinción.

Yammy's eyes narrowed. "Tch. What's this crap?"

Chad didn't answer. His body moved on instinct.

He was going to test out this new power he was gifted... no, more like the power Sora had helped him awaken.

BOOM!

Chad vanished from sight.

Without realizing it, he had used Bringer Light.

How he did it was simple—by pulling on the soul of the ground beneath his feet, Chad increased its elasticity, greatly enhancing his speed.

And because technically no spiritual energy was used... Yammy, the guy with barely any control over Pesquisa, was unable to track Chad.

BAM!

A titanic fist slammed into his ribs, sending him skidding back across the battlefield.

"GH—!" Yammy grunted, feet carving trenches in the ground.

He felt that.

That shit actually hurt. His guts were being rearranged.

But Chad wasn't done.

He twisted mid-air, his left arm crackling with Apocalipsis Cero.

"¡TOMA ESTO!"

Yes... he was getting better at using his new power. They still felt new to him, and he was just tapping into them, but he knew he could do it.

With a thunderous explosion, a crimson blast engulfed Yammy. The ground split apart, buildings were erased in the shockwave, and the Espada let out a roar of frustration as the attack burned across his Hierro.

Yet, through the smoke—

"DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT WAS ENOUGH?!"

Yammy rushed forward, his monstrous fist raised high.

WHAM!

His full-force punch crashed down—only to be met by Brazo Derecho del Coloso.

A golden barrier flared to life, absorbing the impact—then redirecting it.

Indomable!

The kinetic force rebounded tenfold.

BOOM!

Yammy's own power sent him flying backward, his massive frame crashing through a row of ruined buildings.

Meanwhile, while Chad was beating the brakes off Yammy, Orihime could be seen.

"SOUTEN KISHUN!"

A golden light wrapped around Chad's body, closing his wounds before they could fester.

And just like that, all of Yammy's damage was basically meaningless.

Orihime stood nearby, her face tense with determination. "You're holding your own, Chad... but please—be careful!"

Chad nodded but kept his eyes forward.

Yammy rose from the rubble, seething.

HOW DARE THIS FILTHY TRASH HURT HIM?!

"You bastard... you actually hurt me." His voice rumbled with sheer rage.

The Espada slammed his fists together, his Reiatsu erupting. The pressure was unbearable, the sheer density of his power making the air scream.

He was not planning on using this on bugs, however...

"Enough playing around."

"... ¡IRA!"

Yup, he had chosen to release his Resurrección on this human. Ulquiorra did nothing to stop him. He was there to collect info, and if the trash proved to be a bother, he would simply kill him.

Yammy's body expanded, swelling with unnatural power. His already massive frame doubled in size, his muscles bulging grotesquely.

The ground beneath him cracked apart as his full strength was unleashed.

"DIE."

His fist came down—a meteor of destruction.

WHAM!

Chad raised his right arm, activating Aegis de Gigante.

CRACK!

The impact sent shockwaves tearing through the battlefield.

Chad gritted his teeth—his barrier tanked it... yet Chad felt like every single bone in his body wanted to shatter.

But—

"YOU'RE DONE!" Yammy roared, rearing back for another strike.

Lamento del Diablo!

Chad's left arm lashed out, crimson tendrils of Hollow energy wrapping around Yammy's arm before he could strike again.

"Tch—?!"

With a single pull, Chad dragged Yammy forward—

And then—

Garra de Dios.

Chad's fingertips gleamed with condensed destruction.

With a single swipe—

SLASH!

A rift tore through Yammy's Hierro, cutting deep.

"GHHRRAAAAH!!" Yammy howled, clutching his bleeding side.

Yammy was pissed beyond belief, his anger rising and rising, yet his number—10—stayed... and never really left.

It stayed there.

But then—

Yammy grinned like a maniacal monster.

"Not bad... but let's see how you handle this!"

He grabbed Chad.

Before Chad could react—

WHAM!

A massive fist slammed into his chest.

WHAM!

Again.

WHAM-WHAM-WHAM!

Yammy's berserk fury tore through Chad's defenses.

Orihime screamed. "STOP!"

Chad's vision blurred.

He tried to use another move.

Muro y Ruina? No... his body wouldn't move.

Yammy raised his final fist—

"Time to end you, insect."

But before the blow could land—

BOOM!

A silver flash of light appeared.

Yammy's fist stopped.

Blocked—by a single hand.

Sora stood there, his golden Adaptation Wheel spinning above his head. His Reishi flared, warping the very air.

"Tch. Who the hell are you?" Yammy growled.

Sora sighed, cracking his neck.

"Man... you guys are really going out of your way to mess with my free time, huh?"

His golden eyes narrowed.

"Hope it was worth it."

Sora was beyond pissed.

His Spiritual Energy came gushing out like no other. It felt difficult to even breathe. It felt like being in the presence of a very angry being.

His power gushed outside of his body.

Even Ulquiorra felt the pressure.

It almost forced him to his knees...

This power... reminded him... of Aizen-sama...

Did this boy value his friendship so much that he had such a drastic reaction to seeing his friend being hurt?

A:N

Get Rukia back to number 1, it's funny how a Quincy story somehow got 1 place for soul reaper ranking.

Uryu is where he belongs though.

I have like 2 character I want to stay at 1, Uryu and Rukia
