In a certain part of Hueco Mundo, an Adjuchas in the form of a leopard was feasting on its spoils.
The remains in its mouth belonged to another Adjuchas.
Suddenly, ripples shimmered in the void.
"Whoosh!"
An ugly, spiny fish-like creature emerged from the continuously swirling water ripples. Although it was ugly and only two meters long, judging by the surging spiritual pressure emanating from its body, this strange fish was also an Adjuchas.
"Whoosh!"
At the same time, a fiery red goat, eight meters tall, with four thick hooves that seemed to constantly glow with fire, appeared from another direction, surrounding the leopard-shaped Hollow.
Then, the strange fish looked at the eating leopard-shaped Hollow and slowly spoke:
"My great King, the strongest Vasto Lord in the world is summoning you. Joining our King's ranks and becoming his fangs is your supreme honor!"
Unexpectedly, the leopard-shaped Hollow ignored the strange fish and continued to eat by itself.
"Arrogant foolish cat, you dare to ignore me, Jiwa Barnes! You will pay the price for this. Puck, beat him up for me!"
Barnes, the strange fish, saw that the leopard-shaped Hollow actually ignored him, so he immediately ordered Red Mountain Goat, Perke to attack it.
"Meeh!"
The Red Mountain Goat immediately let out a loud cry, and a wisp of fiery red flame spurted from its mouth, heading straight for the eating leopard-shaped Hollow.
"Whoosh!"
The leopard-shaped Hollow, still eating, vanished from its spot with its prey in a flash.
"What a fast Sonido!"
Jiwa Barnes was secretly startled.
In the distance, the leopard-shaped Hollow had swallowed its prey whole, licked the corners of its mouth stained with green blood with its tongue, and then gave a cruel smile to the strange fish and the Red Mountain Goat.
"Two mongrels, courting death!"
A blue light flashed, and the leopard-shaped Hollow instantly appeared behind the strange fish, opening its bloody maw and biting towards Jiwa Barnes's fish tail, the only part not covered by bone spikes.
Just as the sharp teeth were about to bite off the fish tail, the space in front of the strange fish suddenly rippled, allowing it to directly flee far away and create distance from the leopard-shaped Hollow.
"This foolish cat, what fast speed!"
Jiwa Barnes broke out in a cold sweat. If he didn't have spatial abilities, he probably would have lost his fish tail directly and permanently lost his qualification for evolution.
Immediately, he no longer dared to get close to this leopard-shaped Hollow, and could only use his ability to swim through space to launch Cero from a distance to harass it.
"Rumble!"
Jiwa Barnes's fish tail whipped wildly, and with each whip, a black-red Cero was fired. However, every single Cero was completely dodged by the agile leopard-shaped Hollow.
Dozens of Cero in a row, not one hit, but instead stirred up a sky full of dust. The leopard-shaped Hollow, hidden in the dust, grinned and charged towards the Red Mountain Goat in front.
The leopard-shaped Hollow leaped high, baring its fangs and tearing at the Red Mountain Goat. Seeing this, the strange fish in the distance quickly fired a Cero towards the leopard.
Unexpectedly, the leopard-shaped Hollow again used Sonido to directly avoid the Cero.
"Bang!"
Thus, a Cero solidly hit the back of Red Mountain Goat, Perke.
"Meeh!!!"
The Red Mountain Goat immediately let out a painful roar.
Fortunately, the Red Mountain Goat's bone layer on its back was relatively thick, so one Cero could not cause its body to be incomplete.
Even so, this Cero hit him hard, directly tearing the skin and flesh on his back.
"Barnes, what are you doing? Aim better!"
The honest Red Mountain Goat immediately shouted out.
"Puck, I didn't mean to, are you okay!"
Just as the goat and the strange fish were stunned, the leopard-shaped Hollow beside them again used Sonido to approach the strange fish, whipped its leopard tail, and instantly sent Barnes, who had no time to activate his ability, flying away, falling heavily into the desert and unable to get up for a long time.
Seeing this, Red Mountain Goat, Perke gathered a Cero between his two horns and fired it directly at the leopard-shaped Hollow.
The leopard-shaped Hollow neither dodged nor evaded, opening its mouth and also emitting a black-red Cero, which collided with the Red Mountain Goat's Cero.
"Rumble!"
The aftermath of the Cero clash stirred up a fierce wind, blowing sand everywhere!
Before long, the dust and smoke dispersed, revealing the Red Mountain Goat lying charred in a sand pit.
Clearly, Red Mountain Goat, Perke was completely defeated in the Cero clash!
The leopard-shaped Hollow sneered:
"Two fools, remember that the one who killed you is Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez. Go to hell, this is the consequence of offending the Leopard King!"
"Leopard King's Claws!"
The leopard-shaped Hollow leaped high into the air.
On its two front paws, a light blue glow lingered, then transformed into eight blue-glowing blades, carrying the momentum of shattering all things, slashing towards the strange fish and the Red Mountain Goat.
"It's over!"
At this moment, a thought arose simultaneously in the minds of the strange fish Barnes and the Red Mountain Goat Puck: taking this blow would surely mean death!
"Bang!"
Just as the eight terrifying blue light blades were about to cut the strange fish and the Red Mountain Goat into pieces, a dark humanoid figure blocked their path.
The newcomer simply reached out and gripped, and the eight blue light blades were directly crushed by those dark hands.
"Yo, long time no see!"
After Ronan casually crushed Grimmjow's ultimate move, he grinned at him. Although his appearance had changed, Ronan had already confirmed through spiritual pressure perception that the abnormal Gillian he encountered when he first arrived in Hueco Mundo as a Freshman Hollow was actually Grimmjow.
Now, the other party had already advanced to Adjuchas before him.
"Hahaha, what a coincidence!"
Ronan laughed out loud, and then his spiritual pressure burst forth, crushing towards Grimmjow.
"Vasto Lord!"
Feeling the immense spiritual pressure, Grimmjow felt his breathing become difficult.
But the next moment, he grinned again:
"Just right, I want to see if a Vasto Lord is really as powerful as the rumors say!"
Grimmjow opened his mouth and charged up a massive Cero, firing it directly at Ronan's face. Ronan, however, remained unmoving, simply waving his right hand in the face of the Cero.
"Bang!"
The previously infallible Cero was directly deflected and exploded nearby.
"Is that all you've got?"
Ronan sneered at this.
Hearing this, Grimmjow, under the shocked gazes of the strange fish Barnes and the Red Mountain Goat Puck, directly charged towards Ronan.
Looking at the baring-fanged leopard pouncing towards him, he merely shook his head slightly.
"Too weak!"
Ronan didn't even draw his sword. He simply seized the opportunity, and the moment Grimmjow pounced, he directly pinched the back of his neck with his outstretched right hand and lifted him up.
"What a weak and arrogant little cat!"
Ronan held him in one hand. Then, Ronan's dark golden spiritual pressure erupted around him, and Grimmjow felt himself enveloped by a vast spiritual pressure.
Immediately after, he discovered in horror that he was shrinking, and soon he became the size of an ordinary cat, held by Ronan in one hand.
This was Ronan's further development of his ability—Ruyi.
At this moment, he could not only change his own size but also the size of other objects and creatures, but there was a major prerequisite: the other party's spiritual pressure had to be far lower than his own.
