"What is this? That girl is a part of you?" Ichigo asked shocked and confused.
"Grand Fisher. That's his code name. The bait decoy that sprouts from his head disguises itself as a person."
"When someone sees it… he only goes after those with strong spiritual energy. And absorbs their power"
Rukia said as she walked onto the scene with a phone-like object in hand that seemed to be printing something on a piece of paper.
'I see how it is." putting the pieces together
"Riku… will you be alright?" Burēdowākusu asked in concern
'I will be fine.' I replied neutrally.
"R-right."
When whatever was being printed was finished, she tore off the paper and handed it to Ichigo saying.
"He's managed to outwit or outfight the soul reapers for 54 years."
"That's him alright. A well-known low life. Here's his record from the Soul Society's database. he's a real piece of work."
"...Girl you're hurting my feelings…"
Ichigo took the paper looked at it and crushed it as a look of realization slowly appeared on his face.
"What a day…so many who can see me… a regular feast."
"Delicious. Delicious. One two three. What to do? Will it fit in my belly?"
"Hehehe."
A look of anger crossed Ichigo's face as he gripped his zanpakuto tighter and then jumped at the hollow.
"Ichigo!?" Rukia called out.
The hollow gained a look as if he expected Ichigo's reaction.
'So he realized.'
Ichigo still in the air brought down his sword intending to cleave the hollow in two.
"No..."
His sword hit but it wasn't the hollow but the ground the hollow had jumped in the air to avoid his attack. Ichigo realizing this jumped after it."
"That was reckless Idiot!" Rukia shouted at him.
The hollow chuckled and then said
"Hehe so young! Sonny!"
The hollow's hand extended to Ichigo at high speed. Ichigo noticed the attack and raised his sword to deflect the incoming attack but it knocked him off balance. Ichigo regained balance and jumped back at the Grand Fisher but stopped when he realized that the hairs on the Grand Fisher's body grew and extended towards him. Not having enough time to dodge the hair slammed into him.
"Ichigo!!" Rukia cried out in concern before starting a chant of a Bakudo I know quite well.
"Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini! Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat!"
But before she could use it Ichigo told her to stop. Before cutting free of the hairs that bound him. Falling to the ground Rukia ran over to him.
"Ichigo!!"
"Rukia! Stay out of this one! This monster is mine! Can you and Kon check on Yuzu and Karin okay?"
"Are…. Are you insane? He's too strong! He's beaten us for over 50 years–"
"Just go!! Please… stay out of it."
"This one… is personal."
Rukia reluctantly nodded and ran off back in the direction she came. Ichigo focusing back on the fight at hand he and the Grand Fisher started fighting again. Eventually, their fight made them start to change locations eventually stopped moving when they landed at a graveyard with me not too far behind. The fight continued as Ichigo tried to dodge the hair that the Grand Fisher sent at him. The hair caught his hand and started pulling him to Grand Fisher but Ichigo cut himself free. But as he did Grand Fisher appeared behind him saying.
"Too slow Sonny."
Then Ichigo was struck by the hollow sending him to the ground. Ichigo landed on his feet and started running to gain some distance from Grand Fisher. The hollow laughed.
"Hehehe. Hehehe. C'mon, Sonny!! You'll never beat me by running away! And you'll never beat me by flailing wildly with your sword, either!!"
It said while sending hair attacks at Ichigo who was cutting through said hair.
"Trying to protect your friends with skills like yours? What arrogance!! Eh, sonny!?"
The hollow was pretty much running circles around Ichigo. Ichigo rushed at the Grand Fisher with the intent of attacking him. Grand Fisher appeared in Ichigo's face and said.
"Hey, Sonny anyone ever told you… you're a little reckless? Never throw yourself blindly at your foe!"
"Huh."
Grand Fisher swung one of its legs at Ichigo but Ichigo raised his sword and blocked the attack.
"Stay focused!! You've got no discipline!!"
The claws of the hollow extended pierced Ichigo's chest. Pulling its claws from Ichigo's chest. Dropping to his knees Ichigo stabbed his sword into the ground to keep himself upright.
"So reckless. So so reckless."
"In a fit of rage, you sent away your allies and threw yourself at me blindly. You played right into my talons.
"Now you'll die without even having wounded me."
"No!! You're wrong!! I'm gonna kill you! You can tear off my arms, blow off my legs but I'll still kill you!!"
"Wake up Sonny."
Grand Fisher said as the humanoid lure on its head started to move as it started to take the form of the girl it was before.
"You're young… impetuous. You anger easily. That anger blinds you."
It said grabbing the head of the lure.
"And it dulls your sword. It's all over Sonny! You were much too green to challenge me!!"
It said to let go of the lure's head and reveal a familiar face the face of my and Ichigo's mother and a look of shock appeared on his face.
'He dares!! I'm gonna tear him apart!!' I mentally roared in rage as my body started to leak reiatsu."
"Riku calm down just wait Ichigo will deal with this."
I didn't reply just went back to watching the fight.
"Hehe, you're surprised. I don't really remember what happened six years ago. Like I told you. But I was able to recreate your mother."
"From the expression on your face…I'd say you're face upset. Hehehehe"
"You."
"Did you notice?"
"When I attacked you I only used this hand to attack you."
The Grand Fisher raised the hand it used to pierce Ichigo's chest.
"I used these claws to peek… into your memories!! I probed your mind to find… the one thing that you can't bear to hunt. Then this hand formed that very thing."
"Even the most cold-blooded soul reaper has a weakness. That's a given. That's how I've beaten every soul reaper I have faced."
"And for you, that person… is your sweet dead mommy!!"
"Isn't she… Ichigo?" The lure spoke.
"Riku calm down."
'....'
Ichigo looked at the lure while breathing heavily.
"What's wrong? Has the sight of her paralyzed you?"
"You… you sick, disgusting freak!"
"Huh?"
"Let's get it over with! I won't let you defile her memory like this!!"
The lure was thrust into Ichigo's face and said.
"No, Ichigo! Lower your sword! Please don't cut mommy!"
Then the hollow thrust his hand through the lure and Ichigo's chest.
"I told you your anger dulls your blade! Your dead sonny! But I'll say this for your own sake… of all I've faced you were the youngest the most reckless and the weakest soul reaper ever!!! Heheh!!"
However, its laughter was cut short when Ichigo's sword pierced its shoulder.
"Hey, I finally got you!"
Ichigo said pulling out the Grand Fisher's hand from his chest.
"Does my blade feel dull? Maybe you're right about anger but you see Grand Fisher you forgot one thing. A dull blade is all I need to kill a schmuck like you!!"
"You're dead Grand Fisher! But I'll say this for your sake of all the ones that I've faced you were the oldest the slimiest and the most annoying hollow ever.
Ichigo swung his sword to the left almost severing its hand.
"My arm!! It's hanging by a thread."
Ichigo was standing using his sword as a crutch while breathing heavily and bleeding from his chest. Then the strap holding the sheath popped and the sheath fell to the ground. And the Grand Fisher was on the ground bleeding gasping in pain.
"Ichigo!"
Rukia called out after she had just arrived.
"Hey, what took you so long? I had already beat him."
"Ichigo you fool you told me to stay out of it," Rukia said softly
"You thought I was serious? Hehe."
Behind Ichigo, the Grand Fisher's body moved. Rukia noticed and shouted.
"Ichigo behind you!!"
Then an attack knocked Ichigo back and then its body started to be sucked into the lure. When it was fully absorbed by the lure the lure chuckled then said.
"Hey, Sonny remember when you asked me if my decoy was a part of me? Maybe you wanted to know if it was an appendage. I'll answer that question No!! I've got two bodies!!!"
"If one gets hurt, I just slip into the other! And now that I'm in this body you can't cut me!!"
"You."
"st–Stop! Ichigo! This is reckless!!"
"Hehe, that's right stop! Beasts with acute vision are slaves to their eyes!! Yes. beast like you. You know it's me in here but you can't cut me down cause I look like your mother!! And even if you can cut me you're too badly injured to catch me."
The Grand Fisher said as it jumped into the air trying to fly away.
'I think not.' I thought coldly
A white chain made from energy appeared around me that rushed off and bound the Grand Fisher and dragged it away from the area with me following not too far behind. Slamming the Grand Fisher into the ground of the forest.
"What?" Grand Fisher asked in confusion.
While looking around trying to find who attacked him.
"Hello, Grand Fisher," I said coldly. Walking up to the bound hollow removing my mask my eyes a lit with silver energy.
"You!" hollow shouted out in rage.
But as it did a look of realization crossed its face.
"Oh I get you're the brother to Soul Reaper, aren't you? What mad because I'm using mommy's face too?"
"I would advise you to stop saying that with my mother's face but then again it's not like you'll have it for much longer anyway."
"So what are going to do kill me? Ha, don't make me laugh."
"Kill you? Oh no not yet it's too early for that but for now. Cause: I put up a barrier. Effect: the barrier blocks all sound."
Without warning white energy was released from my body creating a large barrier around the both of us and when the barrier was fully formed there was no sound to be heard not even the pouring rain that was happening outside the barrier.
"Now then let's begin. Cause: I create a sword. Effect: any sword created will heighten the sense of pain of whatever it cuts by 100 times."
Creating a sword made of energy I walked over to Grand Fisher and stabbed the sword into its body away from anything vital and the hollow roared/screamed in pain so much so that its body was convulsing.
"Don't bother screaming no one will be able to hear you or help you I'm going to make you wish Ichigo killed you," I said with a cold look.
"Now let's begin."
Multiple white swords made of energy appeared above me. After that screams/roars of pain echoed throughout the barrier not like anyone else is going to hear it anyway.
