Chapter 1143 Doors to Hell part 6
Tanis dived into the area where there was almost an indiscernible purple fume and grabbed the downed Arrancars, carrying Nel and Harribel within her arms and grabbing Grimmjow with her tail before taking to the air once again.
One of their opponents, a wrinkled, hunched back and bald old man with sunken eyes, swung his right black skeletal arm towards them and the purple fume chased after Tanis and the unmoving Arrancars who had their Resurreccion already canceled.
Tanis took a peek at the purple fume before strongly flapping her wings in an attempt to blow it away. However, as if they were there in the first place, the fumes were unaffected. In an instant, Tanis decided on another way and somersaulted in midair to face the fume. She took a deep breath and a blue flame sparked at the corner of her lips.
Opening her mouth, Tanis let out a deep blue breath of fire and it expanded enough to engulf the entire fume. But her Dragon Breath didn't stop there as it continued to expand and made its way towards the two Shinigamis riddled with black chain tattoos.
The Shinigamis were shocked at her sudden large move and both of them could feel the extreme heat that this fire possessed even though they still hadn't touched it. As the breath approached, the Shinigamis used Flash Step to dodge and get away, creating a large distance between the two groups.
Kunou immediately created a translucent platform in the sky for Tanis to land the patients. And after they were lined up, Kunou immediately concluded that they were suffering from severe poisoning, but it was not what was killing them, 'Their bodies were crushed after they were immobilized.'
"...U-ugghhhh... W-who are you?" Grimmjow tried raising his body but he couldn't feel anything aside from pain running through his entire body.
"It's not really the time for introductions, but you can call me Kunou." Kunou started her Youjutsu to start expelling the poison from their system, "This is my first time working on very intricate Spiritual bodies so it may take some time to heal them."
Claire nodded while watching their opponent, studying them, "Take your time. Just give us support whenever you're free."
Claire and Kunou then turned to Tanis who was looking at her shaking arms, "Will you be able to continue?" asked the latter.
Tanis gave her a smile and pumped her fist, "Of course! I can still give that old man a beating!"
"Be careful." reminded Claire, before jumping down and spreading her Devil Wings.
Tanis also jumped down to resume her clash with the poisonous old man.
As Kunou watched them approach their enemies, she couldn't help but think, 'That was such bad acting. I don't know if they're going to fall for it.' She then heard the tanned Arrancar groaning before saying, "...Be careful... The old man's poison works on anything aside from a Shinigami."
Kunou gave her a smile and said, "Don't worry. I don't think it works on a Dragon either."

The moment Kisuke entered the door, the first thing he saw was a very thick mist that severely limited his senses, including his ability to sense Magic Power, 'This Reiatsu... Yadoumaru-san? Is this her Bankai? No wonder Mayuri sent his bugs in with me.'
While thinking about what he should do, the mist moved and slowly dispersed in all locations. Soon, its ability to block senses was lifted and Kisuke saw Lisa Yadoumaru kneeling in front of her unconscious comrades. Lisa herself is breathing heavily and half of her Hollow mask was broken. She also has multiple cuts all over her body, making her bleed profusely. At the same time, the mist that was dispersing congealed and returned to her hand as her sealed Zanpakuto.
As the wielder of that mist, Lisa should have had the advantage within it, 'For her to take it back... Looks like the enemy has something that invalidates it. Quite the unlucky girl. No wonder Kyouraku-san immediately asked for help.'
After making sure that all of them were alive, Kisuke turned his attention to their opponents who were already looking at him, 'Shigyou Nobutsuna and Shijima Chigiri... I guess not all the original Gotei 13 was able to break the chains. No wonder Shihouin-san and Saitou-san panicked when they heard old man Yamamoto arrive in Hell. I wonder if they were able to locate him?'
Kisuke slowly stepped down to the ground and landed in front of Lisa and the other Shinigamis. Lisa was shocked at his appearance and hurriedly stood up to take a stance. However, she couldn't attack him because his back was to them.
"...Who are you?" the tall, lanky, and pale man with visibly sunken skin on his face and chest, particularly around his gray eyes, asked the masked man who just arrived. He had a pointy black mustache that extended a couple of inches out from his face on either side but was shaven in the middle, as well as a long black goatee covering the center of his chin, and spiky black hair that was largely covered by black fabric he kept wrapped around his temples and forehead, the sides of his face, and the underside of his jaw.
But instead of answering Shigyou Nobutsuna's question, Kisuke turned his head in another direction and thought, 'So there's another door not far from here... Hmmm, that Reiatsu... Soifon-san? Well, if Barragan became an immortal, it would really be hard to deal with anyone who didn't fuse with the Hougyoku or with a limited lifespan.'
At that moment, he felt a threat to his neck and immediately used Flash Step to arrive in front of his assailant, Shigyou Nobutsuna, who was now holding a whip-like sword that reached his previous location.
Nobutsuna was taken aback at the speed of the Flash Step and took a step back. However, it was already too late as he saw the strange man already holding a tanto blade and about to reach his neck.
Unfortunately for the strange man, his tanto blade was blocked by another katana, "You seriously fell for that?"
With his attack blocked, Kisuke used Flash Step again to retreat and return to his former position. He then looked at the person who blocked him and thought, 'Shijima Chigiri... A much more troublesome person than the one beside him.'
The reason why Kisuke thought of that is that at their brief encounter, he managed to latch a small amount of Psuedo-Demonic Power into his arm, 'So this is how he was able to track Yadoumaru-san because of this.'
Without saying anything, Kisuke touched the part where he inserted the Psuedo-Demonic Power and expelled it with his own Magic Power.
At that instant, Nobutsuna and Chigiri's facial expressions became serious, "...Who are you?" The latter asked this time, "No... The better question is what are you here for?"
Kisuke finally answered with a masked voice, "To take them back with me... And maybe kill the two of you a few times while I'm at it."
Nobutsuna and Chigiri were both speechless until the former started laughing maniacally, "Fuhahahaha! Good joke, fancy man. Let's see you try that."
However, his laugh abruptly stopped when Kisuke held the tanto blade in front of his chest and said, "Descend, Tiamat."
In the next second, the purple sky became covered with thick dark clouds with flashing lightning and booming thunder within it.
But instead of rain, it was a light blue-haired giant woman with very prominent horns who broke through the clouds face first with her eyes closed. The terrifying giant woman's hands were restrained to her neck as half of her body emerged from the clouds. As soon as her descent stopped, the giant woman opened her eyes, revealing her pink star-like pupils.
A very light yet blood-chilling pressure weighed everyone on the ground as if a Goddess came down to judge them herself.
"Chigiri!!!" Nobutsuna shouted at his stunned partner while preparing to fire his Kidou at 'God'.
