In the place where there is an endless night, limitless land of white sands. There was no living creature in sight except some white tree-like minerals that is pointed to the sky.
In this vast place of nothingness, there could be seen an enormous fortress. The fortress was the place where Arrancars live, Las Noches.
Las Noches remained almost identical to the previous Las Noches when Aizen was ruling over it.
Las Noches became peaceful after Aizen's defeat and under the rule of the new leader of Arrancars. There was no fight between two Arrancars unless it's for practice and all of the Arrancars agreed to it.
In the tallest tower, a certain woman was looking down on the new home of Arrancars through the window.
The woman had golden hair, aqua green eyes, and tanned skin. She was the newly appointed leader of the Las Noches, The Queen of Hueco Mundo, Tier Harribel.
"Lady Harribel, is something matter?" an Arrancar asked.
"No." Tier sighed and went to her room accompanied by the Arrancar.
Suddenly, the peaceful atmosphere in Las Noches was replaced by a dreadful atmosphere with the arrival of men in white.
Their arrival was accompanied by destruction. Everywhere these white-clothed men go there was destruction with them.
"Aren't these guys a little too weak?" One of the white-clothed men exclaimed. The man had red hair in mohawk style and had ferocious air surrounding him.
Suddenly mohawk haired man's comrades surrounding him began to die one by one.
The man smiled as he knew someone strong had arrived.
Soon after everyone except the man died.
"Who are you?" The man asked an Arrancar that was holding a sword in his hand.
"Why should I tell you?" The Arrancar snorted.
"I'm Bazz-B. Sternritter H, the Heat." The man introduced himself first.
"Sternritter? What is that? Aren't you Quincy?" The Arrancar asked.
Without answering the question Bazz-B attacked.
He pointed his index finger of his right hand at the Arrancar.
Suddenly a line of fire rushed towards Arrancar from the finger but Arrancar was able to dodge using Sonido.
The Arrancar appeared behind Bazz-B and descended his sword on the head of Bazz-B.
Bazz-B dodged it pretty easily with the usage of Hirenkyaku and once again attacked using a beam of fire.
The Arrancar just dodged it since it was not too large and counter-attacked using Cero.
Bazz-B successfully dodged but was sneak attacked from behind.
But before Arrancar's sword could reach Bazz-B, a line of fire penetrated the Arrancar in his stomach area which made Arrancar back.
"You are better than others but you are still too weak!!!" Bazz-B stated while rushing towards Arrancar who placed his left hand on the injury.
"Seems like I underestimated you." Arrancar stated before releasing his Resurreccion.
"Burn. Fenix."
As red aura enveloped the Arrancar, Bazz-B halted his attack.
Soon aura dissipated revealing the Arrancar.
The Arrancar after release had a dual sword in his hands. His mask grew resembling the beak of a bird and his outfit changed into a red one as well as big red wings grew on his back.
"I'm newly appointed Espada. Espada number 10. Ignacio Angarika." The Arrancar finally introduced himself.
"10th Espada? I thought all the Espada's died in the war. Seems like our information is outdated." Bazz-B stated.
Ignacio attacked without wasting time.
Bazz-B couldn't keep up with the speed of Ignacio after his release. Due to this fight began one-sided.
While this Ignacio was fighting Bazz-B, on the other side of the fortress a Quincy and an Arrancar were fighting.
The Quincy was a slim man with narrow blue eyes, short black hair, and a vertical scar on his left side mouth. His name was Cang Du. Sternritter I, the Iron.
His opponent was a tall, slim man. The Arrancar had a large smile on his face revealing his white teeth. He was Nnoitora Gilga the 4th Espada.
Nnoitora after his fight against Kenpachi Zaraki was severely wounded, almost dead but he was lucky that Nelliel managed to save him. After the near-death experience, he had matured but he still loves to fight strong opponents.
The battle between Cang Du and Nnoitora was like a battle to see whose skin is harder as both of their weapons couldn't penetrate each other's skin making it impossible to deal damage to each other.
But it Nnoitora had an advantage in strength and range of attacks and soon he managed to cut Cang Du.
Soon Nnoitora was about to deliver the finishing blow but his attack didn't connect as Cang Du was saved by another Sternritter.
The newly arrived Sternritter was a tall woman with a well-endowed body with long green hair.
"And now who?" Nnoitora asked in annoyance.
"Someone who is about to die doesn't need to know." The Sternritter replied arrogantly.
"Is that so?" Nnoitora exclaimed and vanished.
He appeared behind the woman and delivered a mighty swing with his strangely shaped Zanpakuto.
Attack didn't connect as Nnoitora anticipated and he used Cero to female as soon as she appeared.
She dodged it but it left a scratch on her cheek.
"No one told me these Arrancars this strong!!!" The woman exclaimed.
"He is the 4th Espada. Meaning he is 4th strongest in here." Cang Du revealed Nnoitora's identity.
"Espada? I thought they were all dead." The woman stated. "Information is all wrong."
"Ready for the second round Quincies?" Nnoitora's voice appeared behind them which made both Cang Du and the woman surprised.
Nnoitora wasn't the same Nnoitora he used to be. He was more mature, more understanding, and stronger. He was even stronger than Starrk of the past.
Nnoitora swung his Zanpakuto vertically, trying to kill at least one of them which was half successful as Cang Du was the one who got hit. But Cang Du was able to survive with a grave injury.
On the other side of the fortress, Nelliel was evacuating Arrancars with the help of his two Fraccion and Grimmjow.
But they were attacked by Quincies.
Quincies used their bow and arrow made from Spiritual Energy to attack Arrancars.
But an attack from regular Quincy wasn't able to deal serious damage to Arrancars, so it didn't hinder the evacuation.
Annoyed by this, Grimmjow attacked Quincies without second thought killing all of them in the span of few seconds.
But suddenly an explosion erupted the whole area.
Many weaker Arrancars were hurt badly but weren't so hurt that would stop the evacuation.
Grimmjow attacked the enemy who used explosion without wasting time.
The enemy was a tall slender woman with long black hair and brown eyes wearing a white hat.
Grimmjow appeared behind her and sneak attacked but the enemy was able to dodge.
"Who are you?" Grimmjow asked his unsuccessful attack.
"Who are you?" The enemy asked back.
"Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez. The 5th Espada." Grimmjow introduced himself first. "Now it is your turn to introduce yourself."
"Bambietta Basterbine. Sternritter E, the Explode." The enemy introduced herself.
"Sternritter? Are you Quincy?" Grimmjow asked but no reply came as Bambietta attacked using Spiritual Energy imbued with an explosion.
Grimmjow dodged using Sonido and attacked from behind of Bambietta.
Grimmjow's speed was incomparable to Bambietta's and due to it Grimmjow successfully injured her, but not too deep.
