"Arrogant!"
Facing Nnoitra, who was so conceited as to challenge her, Nel merely uttered two words indifferently.
"Whoosh!"
The next instant, she activated Sonido, appearing directly in front of Nnoitra, and held her Zanpakuto to his throat.
"So fast!"
Nnoitra exclaimed inwardly.
"Not bad, my all-night teaching wasn't in vain!"
Yekawa, observing from above, commented with a sense of relief.
Under his tutelage, the Zanjutsu of Nel and the other Vasto Lorde Menos Grande had all improved by a notch compared to the original work.
Now, she had even counterattacked the battle-crazed Nnoitra in an instant.
"You… are too weak!"
Nel held her long blade against Nnoitra's throat, her expression calm as she looked at him.
Gazing at Nel's serene eyes, Nnoitra suddenly felt an unnamed rage surge from his chest.
"How dare you look down on me! My Hierro is unmatched even by Vasto Lorde-level Arrancar. Do you think your blade can truly wound me?!"
"Pfft!"
Unexpectedly, no sooner had Nnoitra finished speaking than Nel, gripping her blade with both hands, slashed diagonally downwards.
A wound so deep it exposed bone instantly appeared on Nnoitra's chest.
"An Adjuchas like you shouldn't be spouting such nonsense!"
With that, Nel no longer paid attention to the heavily wounded Nnoitra who had fallen to the ground. Instead, she calmly sheathed her blade and left without looking back.
Behind her, Nnoitra struggled to get up.
"You mere woman, how dare you look down on me!"
He opened his mouth and extended his tongue, a golden Cero condensing and shooting towards Nel's back.
Just as the Cero was about to hit Nel's back, she turned around directly and steadily caught the Cero with her right hand, then violently flung it away.
"Boom!"
Thus, Nnoitra was hit squarely by his own Cero.
The Adjuchas observing below were horrified.
"Is this a Vasto Lorde Arrancar? Sure enough, even the strongest Adjuchas cannot overcome this chasm!"
Barnes, who had already sobered up, couldn't help but tremble with fear upon seeing the fierce battle in the arena. At the same time, he felt a little fortunate.
"Perhaps, losing early isn't so bad after all…"
In the arena, just as Nel was about to leave the fighting grounds for the last time, Nnoitra slowly rose from the rubble!
"You mere woman!"
"You mere woman!"
Listening to Nnoitra's frantic shouts, Nel couldn't help but stop and frown.
For some reason, she had disliked him from the first moment she saw him, a primal aversion.
Now, this madman was repeatedly provoking her. Thus, Nel no longer intended to tolerate it and immediately turned around, drawing her blade to meet the enemy.
Seeing this, Nnoitra was not surprised but rather delighted, flashing a crazed smile at Nel.
"What Vasto Lorde? I'm going to chop you into pieces right now!"
"Pray, Santa Teresa!"
Nnoitra raised the giant scythe in his hand. A massive Reiatsu transformed into a golden pillar of light, soaring from his body into the sky. The residual Reiatsu formed a storm, stirring up gusts of wind.
"Such terrifying Reiatsu, could he also be a Vasto Lorde?!"
The Adjuchas-level Arrancar observing below all showed expressions of shock. Clearly, they were all intimidated by the Reiatsu storm caused by Nnoitra's Resurreccion.
"He's got some foundation."
Even Yekawa, who had been watching with an amused attitude, had to admit that Nnoitra was indeed the strongest Arrancar below the Vasto Lorde class. In fact, if he were to allocate even a little resource, he could help him become a Vasto Lorde, just like Grimmjow and Wonderweiss.
After the Reiatsu storm dissipated, Nnoitra's form after Resurreccion was revealed.
Nnoitra now had a crescent-shaped horn on his head, cross-shaped yellow markings on his face, and a tooth-like, eye-mask-shaped mask over his Hollow hole. He possessed six limb-like arms, each holding a double-edged scythe.
The next instant, Nnoitra let out a sinister laugh, raising his six scythes, and charged at Nel.
In contrast, Nel remained calm, gripping her Zanpakuto with both hands. Facing Nnoitra's wild slashes, she calmly raised her blade and blocked them all.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
Sparks flew as blades clashed.
"Hey, you bug, you've been yelling for so long, is that all you've got?"
Nel looked at Nnoitra with disdain, speaking indifferently.
"Damn it, you mere woman, how dare you look down on me!"
Just as Nnoitra spoke, two more hands grew from his back, directly stabbing into Nel's abdomen.
"Heh!"
At first, Nnoitra was gloating over his successful sneak attack.
But the next instant, he realized the sensation was wrong; he had only hit Nel's afterimage.
The real Nel had already appeared at his side, slashing her blade and directly severing three of his arms. Then, she directly raised her leg and kicked him hard in the abdomen, sending him flying far away.
"Ah, damn it!"
In the distance, the heavily wounded Nnoitra struggled to get up, roaring frantically. At the same time, his Reiatsu erupted again, golden Reiatsu permeated the wounds of his severed arms, and the next moment, the arms Nel had cut off were all restored.
At the same time, Nnoitra opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue again, charging up a Cero far more powerful than before his Resurreccion, and shot it towards Nel again.
Nel, seeing this, simultaneously opened her mouth wide and took a deep breath. The next moment, this terrifying Cero directly stopped in front of Nel.
Then, Nel exhaled a pink Cero, which mixed with the golden Cero, counterattacking Nnoitra!
"Double Cero!"
"This is impossible!!"
Seeing his own Cero being so easily manipulated by Nel.
An expression of disbelief appeared on Nnoitra's hideous face.
"Boom!"
The pink and yellow Cero exploded in front of Nnoitra with terrifying power. The shockwave generated by merely the aftermath made it impossible for the Adjuchas-level Arrancar observing below to open their eyes.
"Is this a Vasto Lorde Arrancar… Indeed, is it still too difficult to contend for an Espada position as an Adjuchas?"
Among the Adjuchas Arrancar observing below, in an inconspicuous corner, an Arrancar with short black hair, a slanted fringe, light purple eyes, and a remnant mask on the left side of his head. He had three pink diamond-shaped tattoos on his left forehead and wore a long-sleeved, midriff-baring outfit, making his gender hard to distinguish, watched the astonishing battle between Nnoitra and Nel in the arena, lost in thought.
