Funny, how even this deep in the ground, light somehow found its way... Kyoshin had been looking for darkness, but perhaps hoping to find it in a crystal cavern was foolish. He just needed somewhere to be alone, to find silence and darkness, where he could simply fade into the shadows and think of nothing for weeks at a time... He'd been doing it in his own wing of Las Noches for some time now, but then Karzan had to walk right in, start an argument, then blow the place to rubble with a ****ing Gran Rey Cero... Kyoshin just needed some time to cool off. If he had to spend one more second around Karzan...
His fist flew into a wall of crystal nearby, smashing apart the glittering structure with a resounding clash. But it wasn't enough. He had to tear, he had to mangle, he had to destroy... The young, onix-shaded Arrancar flew deeper into a rage, swinging at everything in sight, punch by punch destroying the cave he'd hidden himself in. His Reiatsu was flaring aggressively, but due to the effects of the cave, no one outside would be able to tell, though a shred might be detectable if anyone was nearby...

Deeper in another area of the cave, another Arrancar was sitting crosslegged against the sandy grains underneath him that had formed from the corrosion of the crystal which was around him. His head hung low, his eyelids shut as he pondered amongst himself, his silver hair covering his face as he sat there without so much as an indication he was anything more than just another decoration amidst the brilliant crystalline caverns surrounding him.
Yet it was here that Sven found the greatest solitude. The caves naturally withheld any reiatsu used while in its confines, allowing Sven the satisfaction of not being sensed while in this pristine labyrinth. It always allowed Sven to be alone with his thoughts, while a sense of a long forgotten serenity welled up inside him. However, today was not such a day where he could relaxed. Eyes still shut, Sven remained in a trance like state, meditating when his ear twitched slightly. The slight rumbling further in the caverns had attracted his attention. Slowly opening his eyes, the silver irises of his glowed briefly with his reiatsu before settling down, his gaze directed towards the cavern entrance which resonated the sound the greatest.
Sighing to himself, Sven pulled himself upwards. It was typical. He never got any peace of mind anymore, at least not when he was an Espada. He had thought becoming an Arrancar would quell the Hollow urges, which was true to an extent. Placing his right foot first, Sven began slowly maneuvering himself through the cavern, following the slight resonantion that ricocheted off the crystal walls.
The closer he got, the more a familiar pain began to shoot through his body. Letting another sigh escape his lips, Sven's thought immediately recognized the source of the pain that surged through him. Kyoshin..... The Second In Command... Having suffered some minor injuries from the Arrancar nearly five years prior, the toxic reiatsu of the Commander still burned through Sven's bloodstream. As Sven approached the clearing, he found himself grinding his teeth under the consistently rising agony building in him. His suspicions would soon be met as his eyes caught glimpse of Agotar thrashing violently like some spastic human slowing turning Hollow.....
In spite of the pain, Sven found a smirk forming across his lips, as the sight seemed to be somewhat amusing to him. "So, Kyozhin, havin trouble zhere?" |

Too deeply engrossed in his rage to notice the subtle trace of Sven's Reiatsu not absorbed by the cave's properties, Kyoshin continued smashing all within reach until he heard the Cuartro's distinctive accent in between the crash of falling crystals. The young Arrancar spun around as if to strike but upon seeing his friend, his stance quickly changed. Lowering his Reiatsu to ease Sven's pain, he dropped his head, sweat dripping from his brow as his fists clenched, his shoulders slumped, and he started breathing heavily, physically and emotionally exhausted.
"How long..." he started, his eyes still to the floor. "How long are we to suffer this? How long... are we to let that tyrant live?" He stomped his foot for emphasis, smashing some of the crystalline surface he stood upon as he met Sven's eyes with hate burning in his own. "'Cuz I can't last another day... And I think, together... You and I... We could finish him."

Sven's silver eyes narrowed as he watched Kyoshin struggle. After he finished saying his words, his fingers immediately went for his blade, almost instinctively. He knew that if the Commander wanted to, Sven would have no say in the matter, due to obvious differences in their powers. Even so, Sven's grip tightened around the hilt of his blade as Kyoshin seemed to go on the offensive, but soon changing his positioning, easing the Cuarta's mind.
The Espada's head would tilt to the side as he watched his former mentor's fit of pentup frustration, his gaze trailing to the ripples in the layers of muscle as the Commander's fists clenched, then directed to the heaving of his superior's chest, Kyoshin's heartbeat pummeling clearly in Sven's ears as though each pulse was done on snare drums.
His hand relaxing from his blade, Sven considered the words of his Commander which soon followed, contemplating each word as though it was new to him, even though they weren't. He had long sought to replace the current Lord and escalate himself higher up the chain. With his current skill, it seemed like a far shot, but perhaps if he went in with Kyoshin, they would stand a chance. His Pesquisa seemed to indicate that his Commander had been nearing, if not surpassing Lord Zaraki's strength as of late. Sven's lips parted as he was rather keen on the idea, even Lord Zaraki himself should know that he would be replaced sooner or later. He had once been under servitude to this Anubis fellow, before claiming the throne for himself. They were still Hollows after all, no matter how humanlike the Arrancar had become on the outside. The struggle for power was part of their physiology, nothing could change that. With the current Lord disposed of and any of his loyal Espada submitting under the rule of someone new, Sven had to say, he even applaused the idea, though his overall swagger seemed to remain rather nonchalant to Kyoshin's proposition, a little curiosity detected if any emotion.
"Pleaze go on, Lord Agotar... I vould love to hear more of how yu vould accoplizh zhiz."

Trying to relax himself as he responded to Sven, Kyoshin unclenched his fists and rolled his shoulders back, his voice still quivering slightly as he spoke. "I haven't been an Arrancar long, just a short while before you became one, yet my power... has already matched that of Karzan. Just a little longer... And I'll have eclipsed him entirely. Even now, I could probably take him... But Karzan isn't one who plays fair."
Now the young Arrancar was pacing back and forth, seeming to forget some of his frustration as he explained the dilemma to Sven. "It's his touch, his finger. If he can make contact but once, he will have unfettered access to your mind. He can tear you apart, mentally and physically. As long as he possesses that power, the power his position entitles him, I cannot defeat him... Not alone."
Then he turned to the Cuartro, meeting his eyes again with a face that expressed nothing but determination. "I need you, Sven. I will not ask the alliance of the Espada, their loyalties are for them to decided, but to defeat Zarzan in battle I will need another, one who can break the contact should he attempt to destroy me mentally, one who can keep him too occupied to even use the technique. Only then, in a true fight, could Karzan be taken down. I will not ask it of the others, as all who take part in the Coup d'Etat will surely be banished or destroyed should I fail, and I understand if you, likewise, should keep from my side 'till this is over and done. I'm asking you to risk everything, Sven... What say you?"

An unsettling silence followed the conclusion of Kyoshin's words as Sven silently pondered the meaning amongst himself. It was true he looked up to Agotar as a mentor, if not only for the fact that it was Kyoshin who had reached out to him as a premature Vasto Lorde. But the other factor to consider was the fact that Karzan possessed his unique ability of mind manipulation, and had done Sven no wrong, at least not yet. But he was still Hollow, no matter how much his outer appearance appeared to resemble human, his core was still Hollow and no amount of evolution would change that. As a Hollow, he had certain lusts. Lust for power was one of them. Karzan only served as an obstacle to their goals.
Nodding, the silver of Sven's eyes seem to illuminate with his silver reiatsu as he stared towards Agotar, his tongue running loosely across his lips before he calmly replied."Well, Kyoshin, at zey moment, Zaraki pozez a zhreat to zey Arrancar. If zou zay zou can bring him down, then I will azzept yur offer. We arr ztill Hollow, n' Karzan only zerves az a hindranze. I had often zhought about taking him on myzelf, but wizh bozh of uz, ve vill cripple Zaraki in hiz moment of vurneability."
Sven had already reached the epiphany that such actions, if not properly executed, would spell treason for him. But after a conversation he had with the human Clyde and his Shinigami friend Autumn, he had intended on abandoning the Espada. With this turn of a revelation, Sven found new reason to stay among them, and for what price..... Karzan's head, that was it. Such a small sacrifice to better himself as an Arrancar. Of course one thing dictated success....
"If we arr to zuzzeed, I require morr trainin'."

Kyoshin's determined look became one of triumph as Sven accepted his offer, now feeling more than confident that Karzan could be defeated. Not bothering to draw his sword when asked for training, Kyoshin merely raised his arms and said, "Sure," then shot forward with Sonido, bringing his left arm up in a slashing motion while keeping his right defensive. His aim was not to injure Sven just yet but merely to engage him, however it had been some time since they'd last trained so Kyoshin didn't know how different their powers were at the current time.
Aiming a sweeping low kick at Sven's legs to cast the Cuartro off balance, Kyoshin tossed a quick punch before he Sonido'd back a few steps to give the other Arrancar some room to attack.

Sven was caught off guard as the Commander flew forward at him, the static sound alerting Sven to back up, as he watched the chop fly mere inches before the bridge off his nose. One thing was sure, Agotar had improved, Sven barely had any time to react. Shortly after, Sven stumbled forward from the Commander's legs running below his own. Regaining his posture, Sven's frame dived forward in a rolling motion, as his body spiraled backwards, his knees slamming into the dirt as his hand pressed into the earth below him for the sole purpose of turning him around, his head flung backwards to remove the hair in his face, a smile on his face, as he was now kneeled before his Commander. "Yu've grown ztronger, Lord Agotar. I can bearly keep up wiz yur movements." Sven's frame turned slightly, as his knees bent upwards, his right hand reaching for Haciendose Viento. Upon the grasping of the blade, Sven's finger tapped the hilt of the blade, the noise soon escalating into a full screeching noise through Sven's Distorsion Airelibre technique.
Pulling himself to his feet, Sven's hand, pulled the blade from it's sheath, pointing it towards Kyoshin as he grinned, another shrill burst of sound echoing through the walls, as the crystalline structure around them began to crack from the sheer vibrations let off from Sven's sound waves. "I've learned a few trickz myzelf, Kyozhin. Allow me to zho yu." A burst of Sonido and Sven was behind Kyoshin, his lips forming the words "Destrozando la Tierra" as his blade began to glow with a silver light, bringing it crashing down upon Agotar with all the force he can muster with his right hand as his left hand began glowing with the unmistakable silver coloured orb of a Cero.

Wincing from mild irritation to pain as the sounds Sven manipulated grew steadily harsher and harsher, Kyoshin tried to keep as aware as possible of Sven, though it was apparent from his still casual stance that he wasn't giving this fight his all yet. When Sven used his Destrozando la Tierra technique, Kyoshin turned to face him and raised his arm to stop the sword, catching the attack with his left arm before staggering and gasping in surprise as the sword's initial impact actually managed to cut through his defenses, even though the slice wasn't very deep. In a swift, reflexive motion, the young Arrancar drew his sword and clashed it against Sven's, knocking the other Arrancar off balance then retreating with Sonido.
Still keeping his eye on the Cero charging in Sven's hand and waiting for the Cuartra to Sonido and attack, Kyoshin grinned. "You've grown stronger as well, Sven," he laughed, glancing at the gash in his arm. "I don't get cut very often..." He began charging his own Cero, hesitant to attack while Sven still had his, and reasoning that the best defense against a Cero was another Cero, rather than simply waiting to dodge.

"But of courze, I've modified Destrozando la Tierra to my taztes. It can even diztort a fellow Arrancar's Hierro enough with sound waves to cut yuu. And if zhat doezn't work, zey zound alone will render you deaf. Not too bad for a technique zhat created fizzurez in zey earth." As Sven pressed down upon Haciendose, Kyoshin suddenly pushed back, knocking Sven backwards, as his feet backed up two steps, regaining his composure. His eyes darted towards Kyoshin who had disappeared, instead focusing his hearing on the unmistakable static sound.
Smiling to himself, Sven's hearing detected the slight buzz of the Sonido, as his left hand pushed forward, firing the Cero in Kyoshin's new location. He was perfectly aware that his Commander would possibly have one of his own Ceros to retaliate with, which he was expecting. Upon the two colliding with each other, Sven would Sonido, using the resulting explosion as a smokescreen, as he muffled up the sound of his own Sonido to prevent his own detection. Appearing behind Kyoshin, Haciendose would shriek as it swung in an upward arc across Kyoshin's back, using the same Destrozando la Tierra technique to penetrate his Commander's Hierro. This was still his Commander and a single slip up could prove fatal on Sven's part. He had encountered Agotar once before in combat and he still bore the scar from the last time he sought to confirm the Arrancar's strength.

Slightly caught off guard by the timing of Sven's Cero, Kyoshin had no chaice but to fire his reflexively, detonating them both very close to the young Arrancar, who was singed slightly by the explosion. Thinking nothing of the smokescreen Sven had devised, Kyoshin simply listened intently for any movements from Sven and tried to peer through the haze, neither of which would do him any good anticipating Sven's next attack. Suddenly, he would feel a shot of pain in the small of his back and he heard Sven's signature attack and felt the other Arrancar's Reiatsu. In a flash he spun around and parried the attack with ease, practically knocking the weapon from Sven's hand with both sheer speed and finesse, while cursing himself for not being more alert. If he'd been using his Pesquisa, he would have detected Sven's movement without sight or sounds, but he hadn't taken the Cuartra seriously and he already had two wounds to show for it.
"Excellent use of your surroundings," Kyoshin commented, trying to sound congratulatory rather than annoyed with himself. Following up with a horizontal slash and a kick aimed upwards at Sven's groin, Kyoshin then fired off several Bala from his unoccupied fist, giving a pause in between his first attacks and the latter to reassess his situation and make sure he was aiming at the Cuatro, should the other Arrancar relocate.

Sven's lips formed into a slight smile as the Commander praised him. It wasn't often that Kyoshin congratulated someone, yet he wasn't about to let it go to his head like other Arrancar who were just in it to fuel their ego. Sven's blade flew upward, as Sven's hand followed suit, his fingers tightening around the grip to keep hold of the rapier. His left foot move backwards in retaliation of the Commander's swift motions. As his gaze caught the continuation of Agotar's zanpaktou, Sven pressed up against the balls of his left feet, Sonido'ing as the blade came across Sven's chest. Reappearign a few feet away, Sven glanced down to see the incision across his pectorals, his Arrancar coat now torn and stained with Sven's own blood. It was to be expected, the Commander had superb reaction times when compared to himself, and it wasn't anything too fatal. Casting his coat to the side, Sven's gaze returned to Kyoshin as the first Bala flew from the Arrancar's fist. Swerving out of the way of the first Bala, Sven's frame ducked low as he darted towards Agotar, his right hand lowering itself as Haciendose Viento, scraped against the ground. Destrozando la Tierra once again took effect, as the silver blade of the rapier began to carve into the earth as Sven rotated it upwards with his wrist, as a deep fissure opened, splitting the ground in half as it shot towards Kyoshin. The crystal and rock fragments that flew upwards would provide enough of an obstacle to counter the Commander's subsequent Bala. Taking a quick glance around before the resulting dust obscured his vision, Sven quickly got his bearings of where everything was, as the Bala decimated the rubble. Another burst Sonido and Sven appeared near one of the crystal walls of the cave, his fingers tapping on the surface, a slight tapping noise echoing through the area. Sven doubted that a simple fissure would subdue his superior, so he decided things would be a little more interesting if he could try and break Agotar's state of mind. His finger now ceased the tapping, as his nails now ran across the surface of the glass like material, a slight scratching noise resonating through the halls. Sven's grin formed into a more serpentine one, as he listened to how well the sound resonated through the cavern's, before he held his zanpaktou in front of his face, the scratching sound soon distorted itself into a high pitched shriek as it engulfed the entire cavern in what sounded like nails running across a chalkboard magnified twentyfold, and turned up towards maximum volume. Even Sven himself could feel a slight trickle of blood trail down from his right ear. Considering he was used to harsh noises and it was affecting him, he could only imagine how Kyoshin felt with the sound blaring in his ear combined with the fissure that bore down upon him. Not only that, but Sven noticed something very peculiar as he leaned up against the wall, his back feeling a rumbling coming from the cave. It was apparent he was messing with fragile ground, as though the cave could collapse upon them at any given time, and Sven was only exploiting that weakness. Now the real fight begins....

When he saw the fissure ripping through the ground and headed his way, Kyoshin simply leapt up a few inches and condensed a platform under his feet from the high amounts of Reishi in the air, effectively avoiding Sven's first attack. And then the sound started. Quiet at first, but before long Kyoshin found himself desperately wishing he didn't have ears, sandwiching his head in between his right shoulder and his left hand while trying to keep his Zanpakuto held defensively. His concentration was breaking, however, which became evident as his platform began to crumble, and for an instant he lost his footing. Which gave him a sudden idea. A reprieve from that terrible sound...
Quickly firing a Cero to cover his retreat and allowing the Reishi below him to scatter again, the young Arrancar slipped freely into the chasm Sven had created, dissolving himself and his damned ears as he reached the one shaded area in the cave. He had to take a few moments for his head to clear from the pain before formulating his next plan of attack, not quite sure how he'd combat Sven like this but certain that he couldn't emerge again 'till that sound went away...
Perhaps, out of the corner of his eye, Sven would notice a peculiar black object hovering along the walls of the cave, but whether or not he saw it, the entire cavern would be lit up by a light brighter than the artificial sun of Las Noches as the object opened its 'eyelids'. The sudden brightness would cast a long, dark shadow of the Cuartro, which Kyoshin would then Sonido to silently using his Sombra Impulsar and thrust into Sven's back with his hand, fingers outstretched as if to pierce.

Sven's ears, still bleeding but functionable tuned into the area around him, as soon as his fingers drifted away from the wall, reishi gathering around his own feet as he hovered motionless above the collapsing floor, as Sven's Pesquisa determined the location of Kyoshin. His eyes narrowed as Pesquisa detected an abundance of reiryoku gathering in a single area. Of course, Sven could detect what came next in the techinique in which the reiryoku gathered, Sonido'ing out of the way, as the light of Agotar's Cero flared by him, rocketing into the ceiling, sending more of the crystalline structure crashing down as Sven's head shot downward into the deepening abyss.
As Sven's eyes drifted blindly in the darkness towards the source of the Cero, Pesquisa indicated his Commander was no longer there. Lip curling, Sven knew instantly what was coming, though one thing threw him off. The inclusion of a small orb that seemed to give off a weird reading with Sven's Pesquisa. As Sven stared at the globe, he watched as what appeared to be shutters forced themselves open.Sven's hand immediately shot in front of his face, shielding himself from the excruciating light, his head darting off to his side. As his eyes adjusted to the light, through the corner of his eyes, Sven would notice his shadow behind him.
Bringing two and two together, Sven strung together the details. Kyoshin's vanishing act, the bright orb of light, and Sven's shadow being the only hint of darkness in the area. Sven knew entirely well that Kyoshin relied on shadows, and the only patch of darkness was his...... Instinctively, Sven's left hand shot forward as he grabbed a falling crystal falling from the cavern wall, as his suspicions were confirmed. Agotar's hand came shooting out as Sven rotated his body, the nails of Kyoshin nearly puncturing Sven's right lung, missing it by inches, as blood splattered across Sven's abdominals, dripping onto his hakama bottoms, white becoming streaked with red.
Sven's left hand darted upwards, as the prism of the crystal clutched within caught the light, illuminating even Sven's shadow, eliminating Kyoshin's method of transport. A followup vertical slice shot upwards as Sven attempted to cleave Agotar's arm off.

Wincing in mild pain as the light Sven redirected forced him to materialize, Kyoshin was irritated, but nonetheless pleased and impressed yet again by the Cuatro's ingenuity. However, the Commander knew he still had to capitalize on his other advantages and once again underline to Sven the difference in their powers, one he hoped was a clear as the last time they'd fought...
Pleased that Sven wasn't using Destrozando la Tierra this time, Kyoshin smirked as he caught his opponent's blade using the hand he'd stabbed him with, then slashed him deep across the chest with his black Zanpakuto. At this proximity the blow was unavoidable, but the Commander had ensured that the Cuartro wouldn't be cut completely in half, just enough to end the fight or force him to release. Raising his leg and kicking Sven hard in the chest while letting go of his sword simultaneously, Kyoshin then Sonido'd upwards, out of the wide chasm his opponent had created and back into the part of the cave their fight had began in, or what was left of it.

Sven's blade hit against Kyoshin's Hierro with a deafening screech, the Commander's hand now firmly grasping the rapier's edge as Sven's eyes caught the brief glimpse of black steel as his stomach was sliced open, more of the deep black blood raining down into the deep abyss beneath. Coughing up his own blood, Sven's eyes remained fixated on Kyoshin as his superior's leg pummeled him into the chasm, Sven's eyes remaining fixated on Agotar as he fell, the Commander's figure growing more distant as Sven descended. Reaching upwards with Haciendose, Sven whispered, "Shriek ,Haciendose Viento....." The shrill burst of reiatsu in addition to the intense sound waves that now drove into the chasm walls would be audible to Kyoshin as the cave began to crumble further, the howling of Hollows caught in the resulting landslide evident, as a demonic form brushed off the debris, tuning into the sound of Kyoshin's heartbeat, the steady thumping noise causing a long tongue to flicker out, lashing at where it's lips would have originally been, now just a hardened mask. Flexing it's legs, the creature would launch itself towards the nearest wall, latching on with it's vicious talons, grabbing a horde of rocks as it kicked off the wall, rocketing towards the outer side. The beast would then continue this, steadily gaining speed as it honed onto the Commander's heartbeat and particular scent, the visage of Agotar's form entering the fiend's mind.
Reiatsu: 190+65+10+5=270
Attack: 190+65+10+0=265
Speed: 150+65+10+15=240
Weapon Skill: 155+65+10+15=245
As Sven's rocketed off the last portion of wall, a burst of Sonido would send him clashing into Kyoshin as claws attempted to tear into the tender supple, yet reaitsu rich flesh of his superior, hunger consuming Sven's mind, as the words 'Destrozando la Tierra' echoed around Kyoshin, Sven's claws glowing a deep silver, as they lunged into Kyoshin's sides, eager for even the smallest taste. |

There'd been a time when he would face Sven's Resurreccion without releasing his own, merely for the challenge, but now wasn't that time... "Noche Espina," he said softly as Haciendose Viento charged him.
Reiatsu: 205+90= 295
Attack: 200+85= 285
Speed: 210+85= 295
Weapon: 240+80= 320
Catching and deflecting the first several blows with his bone gauntlets, several tentacles then sprung from Kyoshin's chest and tried to wrap around Sven's arms as they activated Destrozando la Tierra, intent on preventing the claws from even making contact while he kept his arms at the ready to defend, certain the bone would be enough to stop Sven's sound attack from at least small periods of contact. More of the Reiatsu vines then shot out of the Arrancar, aimed to stab through Sven's chest by finding weak points and spaces in between the Cuartro's rib cage. If any pierced, they would then grow long thorns of their own, further tearing into Sven's flesh and ripping open more wounds. With the tentacles still in place, Kyoshin charged a Cero in his mouth and fired, taking some burn damage to his chest assuming it detonated with Sven as close as he was, but doing additional damage to the Cuatro with the thorns tearing out of his chest upon detonation. |

Sven or rather Akumainu as he had begun to call his Hollow Ressurecion, was caught off guard as Kyoshin's tendrils wrapped around his wrists, his claws immediately trying to grasp at Agotar's binding limbs, as Akumainu's tail whipped viciously at Kyoshin, lashing out at his Commander like a whip as the words of "Destrozando la Tierra" filled Kyoshin's ears, as Sven instead focused the reiryoku into his skeletal tail, empowering the limb and making it more difficult to stop the lashing of the tail as it attempted to slice into the Arrancar.
A brief glow illuminated the partially open throat of Akumainu, as Kyoshin's thorns pierced through Akumainu's ribcage, another sharpened screech ringing in Kyoshin's ears, as the thorns splattered blood all over the two of them, piercing Akumianu from the inside out.
Akumainu imitated a regurgitation technique that would often be seen with felines before they vomit, reverberating numerous sound waves through his throat. As Kyoshin released a Cero of his, Akumainu would vomit up his own at a heightened speed, launching it straight into Kyoshin's, both of them feeling the full effects of being caught in a Cero crossfire at point black range, as Akumainu felt his flesh being torn, yet ironically cauterized from the energy of the Cero, which at least stopped the blood flow as Akumainu fell backwards into the abyss,looking much like a barbequed Vasto Lorde.

Kyoshin heard the words and knew what was coming, but as he and Sven were grappling and quite engaged he could do nothing to stop the Cuatra's powerful tail as it slashed into his side with Destrozando la Tierra, ripping nearly four inches through his Hierro. Then the Cero detonated, ripping the fighters apart and sending them flying in opposite directions. Taking severe burn damage and smashing into the cave wall before recovering and searching with his Pesquisa for Sven, Kyoshin created something of a safety net out of tentacles to ensnare his fellow Arrancar should the latter not stop his own descent soon enough.
"That's enough," Kyoshin said, sealing his form as his eyes searched the devastated cave for an exit. "We've barely employed our Resurrecciones, but we've a war to fight, thanks to Karzan, and we'll not want to exhaust our powers beforehand. The power gap between us is small, and you've just proven yourself capable of bridging it with your mind... I've full confidence we can take Karzan now." The Arrancar grinned assuredly, then dissolved into the darkness and slowly drifted upwards, hoping to find a way out through the shadows. "But when I do engage him, it might be wise if you don't show me any support unless it's fully necessary... It'd be better for Karzan not to know he has two enemies, in the case I should fail. My plan is to challenge him after the war, if all goes well... Hopefully Rose won't complicate things."

Claws grasped empty air as Akumainu frantically tried to attach itself to the surface of the cavern walls, recovering from the blast. Successfully finding a foothold in the side of the wall, Akumainu's foot latched onto the small footing, claws puncturing the crystalline structure, as his face leered upwards towards Kyoshin, the sonic image presenting itself very clear.
Several waves of sound splashed against Akumainu's features, as one seemed to indicate the presence of a safety net, the second being more steady in frequency as he tilted his head to the left. The verbal patterns of Kyoshin took a brief moment to register as Akumainu's head quickly translated the sound waves, making out the Commander's words, to which Akumainu replied to with a small grunt emanating from his throat.
Sealing his sword, the armor along Akumainu hardened, as Sven rocketed out of his peculiar exoskeleton, shattering the carapace as he launched upwards towards Kyoshin. A few more Sonido and Sven would be where Agotar once was, having found his Commander dissolved into the darkened corners of the cave.
"Then I zhall watch from the zidelines until a chance prezentz itzelf. We do not want to rizk any of our Ezpada, at leazt for the moment." Sven smirked as his blade grew with his reiatsu again, as the rapier made contact with the ceiling, using the blade infused with Destrozando la Tierra to cleave himself an exit. He had already noticed the budding relations between Rose and his Commander, a factor both Kyoshin and Agotar possessed. Lord Zaraki was obsessed with the human boy, somehow finding overwhelming talent within these humans who can combat even the Espada. True, this Clyde fellow defeated Virgil and he may even stand a chance against Karzan, whose ongoing obsession only served to weaken the Lord's mind. Kyoshin too possessed that same obsession, as noticed with the emotion he held for the Tercera.
Nonetheless, Sven pondered, Karzan will fall, and Agotar will take his place. Sven will then calculate how efficient of a leader Kyoshin really is, even if it means severing a few 'loose ends' to do so. Sven's form shot out from a nearby cave, his body nimbly landing in the Moonlit Desert, as his gaze remained directed towards the Hueco Mundo tundra with which he had grown accustomed to.
