"Hopefully it will work this time."
On the test platform, Natsuhiko and Nellie stood side by side, staring at the Arrancar in the void hole below.
I conducted a face-breaking test on the hyena, and the latter showed signs of the mask being broken. However, when the mask was broken, the spiritual pressure would increase. Can I seal the increased spiritual pressure and my own body into a spiritual core? It depends on the other party.
Xia Yan waited patiently. The visor on the hyena's face disappeared little by little. When it disappeared to a quarter, leaving only a ring of visor on its forehead, the hyena roared and its body changed.
The body slowly stood upright, and the white armor disappeared, leaving only a ring of visor on his forehead.
call.
All the armor fell off, and the increased energy sealed it into a ZanpakutÅ.
What appeared in front of Xia Yan was a short young man with cold eyes, black smoke, and a long knife on his waist.
"Whoosh."
The young man jumped up and came outside the void cave. He knelt down on one knee and said, "See you, sir."
He knew the strength of the young man in front of him. Not to mention him, even the woman standing next to him was far stronger than him.
Living in Hueco Mundo, he had long known that the weak would eat the strong, so he chose to surrender.
Xia Yan smiled and said, "Get up."
The young man stood up and without saying a word, Nellie asked curiously: "What's your name?"
Many Hollows were born with consciousness before they had Arrancars, but they were driven by instinct. After Arrancars, they would develop rationality and curb their actions.
The young man said softly: "My name is Perez Leica."
"Then I will call you Perez from now on. Come with me."
Xia Yan turned around and left the Void Cave with Perez, returned to his palace, reached out and drew a mysterious pattern on the side, and said: "Grimmjow, come to me."
After a while, Grimmjow appeared next to Xia Yan and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xia Yan pointed at Perez and said, "I will give this Arrancar to you to be your subordinate."
Grimmjow looked at Perez and said arrogantly, "I'm not willing to recruit just anyone."
"Perez, show your strength."
Xia Yan tilted his head, and Perez disappeared in an instant, appearing next to Grimmjow and slashing out with his sword.
"So fast."
Grimmjow was a little surprised and took a step back to avoid it, trying to draw his sword, but Perez slashed at the hand that Grimmjow touched.
"Damn it."
Grimmjow could only dodge with his hand, but Perez refused to let go. The knife in his hand was like a whirlwind, slashing at Grimmjow.
Whenever Grimmjow tried to draw his sword, he would be forced back by Perez.
In terms of speed, although Perez is fast, he is not as good as Grimmjow.
It's just that the reaction ability and the timing are too critical. Use the ZanpakutÅ first to seal Grimmjow's sword.
Without the sword, Grimmjow could only keep dodging, and for a while the two of them could not tell the winner.
"Boy, don't be complacent."
Grimmjow snorted, and after Perez slashed, he reached out and grabbed Perez's long knife.
puff.
Grimmjow's left hand was cut directly with a bloody mark, but he held Perez's knife firmly, then pulled out his own knife with his right hand and slashed with his backhand.
clang.
Perez's figure suddenly changed. His back bulged, his nose protruded, and manes appeared on his cheeks.
His knife disappeared without a trace, but black finger knives appeared on his hands, covering the five fingers.
Return to the edge.
Perez decisively chose to return to the sword, blocking Grimmjow's sword with his left hand and swiping his right hand.
Grimmjow subconsciously retreated, but black light filled the air, and five sharp diamond-shaped hidden weapons formed. Following the movements of his fingers, they shot towards Grimmjow, shrouding Grimmjow.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Grimmjow instantly retracted his long sword and slashed five times. The five swords hit the black diamond-shaped hidden weapon, and all exploded. The explosion range was not large, but the energy was extremely powerful.
After five explosions, Grimmjow's hand holding the knife was cracked and bleeding.
The pain caused Grimmjow to freeze for a moment. At this moment, Perez appeared behind Grimmjow and grabbed it with his fingers.
puff.
Just when Perez's claws were about to touch Grimmjow's vest, a hand pressed down on Perez's face.
boom.
Perez's body smashed into the ground, and a huge hole appeared on the ground.
At this time, Grimmjow's visor on his right cheek has turned into a visor on his forehead. The blue short one has become longer. His body is covered by white armor, and two blades extend from his arms.
Leopard King form.
"Compared to me, you are very weak."
Grimmjow snorted and thrust his right hand towards Perez, who was trying to get up.
clang.
Grimmjow's hand was blocked by a transparent barrier, and Xia Yan's voice came, "That's enough."
Grimmjow glanced at Xia Yan fearfully, and his body slowly released its return state and returned to its normal appearance.
Perez stood up, but it didn't hurt, and it didn't look like his steel skin was weak.
Of course, if they really wanted to fight, Perez wouldn't be able to defeat Grimmjow, and the gap would be quite obvious.
"Grimmjow, how strong is he? He should be stronger than your subordinate officers, right?"
Natsuhiko asked looking at Grimmjow.
Grimmjow snorted and said, "They are much more powerful than my incompetent subordinate officers."
Xia Yan said: "Nurture him well and make him a useful fighting force."
Grimmjow nodded and said, "I will train him well."
"Perez, you must obey Grimmjow's orders."
Xia Yan looked at Perez and ordered.
Perez looked at Xia Yan and said, "Master Xia Yan, can't I stay by your side to protect you?"
Perez admired Xia Yan. He remembered that he attacked him a month ago and was let go by him, but what was more important was Xia Yan's strength.
He could see the gap between himself and Grimmjow, knew what was lacking, and also saw the hope of catching up.
But for Xia Yan, Perez could not see the difference between the two. The other party was stronger than he imagined.
Perez yearns for the strong, so he wants to stay by Xia Yan's side.
Xia Yan smiled and said: "I already have a guard. Although he is often lazy, he is pretty good."
"Huhu."
Xia Yan responded to Nellie's snoring. She had fallen asleep sitting on the stone steps not far away.
"I will work hard."
Perez nodded, his eyes showing determination.
"Let's go, kid."
Grimmjow put his hands in his pockets and left Xia Yan's palace with Perez.
After they left, Nilielle suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Your experiment was successful. Xuye Palace can become lively next."
"I don't plan to make too many Arrancars. Low-level Arrancars have no effect."
Xia Yan rubbed his brows. Perez was considered a tool for Xia Yan to experiment with becoming a god of death. His strength itself could only be regarded as a dividing line. After returning to the sword, he was probably equivalent to the degenerated Tristan and Taze, that is, the vice president. The peak of captain level, the lower captain level.
After developing the perfect Bengyu, these people have the possibility to be promoted again, but even if they are promoted, they will only be the lowest level Quincy in the thousand-year bloody battle.
After all, even Riuchukenxi and Fengqiaoloujuro will be killed instantly by a Quincy who hasn't finished using the Holy Body.
Therefore, the main combat power lies in Harribel, Nellie, Ulquiorra, Ginjo and Tsukishima.
Therefore, if he cannot encounter the Daxu of the Vastod series, Natsuhiko will not conduct any more Arrancar tests.
