After Cuatro let out a deafening roar, drastic transformations began to take place within his body.
Extending his hands, he gouged out his own eyes, yet continued advancing with an unsettling grin.
At that moment, the blood-soaked eyes in his grasp became engulfed in surging crimson energy. As the red light expanded, two long, scarlet blades materialized in Cuatro's hands.
"I want to consume you! I want to consume all of you!" Cuatro bellowed, his eerie smile widening as he unleashed a violent surge of Reiatsu that warped the surrounding space.
Boom!
The overwhelming spiritual pressure, like a primordial beast, charged toward the gathered warriors with terrifying speed.
At the same time, Cuatro's body began to swell rapidly. His Reiatsu billowed around him like dense steam, shrouding his now towering 100-meter form in thick, swirling smoke.
A guttural roar echoed through the air as Cuatro, having completed his monstrous transformation, swiped away the lingering smoke with a massive hand and stepped forward. His grotesque new form bore a stark black-and-white pattern, resembling the erratic stripes of a zebra. At the tip of each elongated finger was a gaping, grotesque mouth filled with razor-sharp fangs.
The most horrifying feature, however, was his head. Though it bore the semblance of a hound's skull encased in armor, it dangled loosely, as if cleaved apart and barely held together.
Upon closer inspection, the white streaks adorning Cuatro's body were not mere markings but rather a pattern formed from countless Gillian masks fused together in a grotesque arrangement.
Despite having encountered innumerable bizarre Hollows and Arrancar, none present had ever witnessed such an abomination.
"Consume! I will devour your new Zanpakutō first!"
As Cuatro roared, his ten fingers morphed into writhing, serpentine appendages, each tearing open a pitch-black Garganta in midair.
Before Hitsugaya and the others could react, gaping, monstrous maws emerged from the void, lunging at them with nightmarish speed.
Naturally, Aaron was among the targets. Yet, unfazed, he observed Cuatro's frenzied assault with mild amusement.
At that moment, Wonderweiss Margela drew his Zanpakutō.
In an instant, he vanished and reappeared behind Aaron. However, Wonderweiss had undergone a drastic change. Now standing at a towering three meters, his limbs had elongated while his shoulders and thighs had widened unnaturally. The mask that once adorned his forehead had reshaped itself into a crown-like visor, further amplifying his unsettling visage.
"Strange... Why doesn't this thing's bite feel lethal?" Rangiku muttered, staring at the grotesque mouth latched onto her arm.
Gong Qin noticed this as well, though his concern was of an entirely different nature.
"Ugh, it feels slimy! Just thinking about it makes me sick! Hollows, Arrancar—it doesn't matter. They're all just hideous and repulsive creatures!" he scoffed, flipping his hair in exaggerated disdain.
"Hey! Gong Qin! Now is not the time for that nonsense!" Ikkaku Madarame shouted in exasperation, before his eyes widened in alarm at the colossal figure looming behind Aaron.
"Senior! Watch out!" Hitsugaya and Renji shouted in unison.
Without hesitation, Aaron turned and delivered a single, devastating punch, sending Wonderweiss hurtling through the air with a thunderous impact.
At that moment, Cuatro—now towering over the battlefield—suddenly came to a halt. The Gillian masks forming his body began to emit an ominous, pulsating crimson glow.
A deafening cacophony erupted from within his form, as countless Gillian mouths, previously thought to be mere ornaments, began to stir.
Each mouth opened wide, charging an immense and devastating Cero.
As Cuatro's body pulsed with veins of glowing red energy, the battlefield was flooded with dread.
"How is this even possible?!"
"My god… Just how many Gillians were fused to create this monster?!"
"We need to retreat! If we stay here, we're doomed!"
Renji and the others exchanged frantic glances as they hastily formulated a countermeasure.
Each of them began chanting familiar Kidō incantations, attempting to sever the grotesque, tentacle-like mouths clamping onto their limbs. Flames, lightning, wind blades—an array of dazzling lights accompanied each Kidō spell.
However, to their horror, their attacks failed to penetrate the monstrous appendages.
Hitsugaya managed to slice through the tentacle restraining his right arm with a Byakurai, only to watch in shock as the severed limb regenerated instantly.
Boom!
A surge of immense Reiatsu exploded from Aaron, instantly obliterating the grotesque limb wrapped around his left arm. Before it could regenerate, flames erupted from thin air, reducing it to ash.
Meanwhile, Wonderweiss, who had been hurled away moments prior, let out a furious cry and charged once more.
Four distinct hues of energy shimmered around Aaron, spiraling in a mesmerizing dance. At the same time, a mass of black thunderclouds manifested above Cuatro's head, crackling with ominous energy.
Gripping his Zanpakutō tightly with both hands, Aaron poured all of his Reiatsu and elemental power into the blade.
This time, he granted Wonderweiss no chance to strike.
In an instant, Aaron transformed into a blur of multicolored afterimages and clashed with his opponent.
The sheer force of his movement created a resounding shockwave, followed by a sharp slicing sound. By the time he reappeared, his sword had already been sheathed, and a faint smile played at the corner of his lips.
A luminous, four-colored Reishi net enveloped Wonderweiss, and in the next moment, the Arrancar was torn into countless fragments, his remains scattering in the wind.
As the dust settled, the onlookers could do nothing but gape in stunned silence.
At that moment, Urahara Kisuke and Hirako Shinji arrived from two separate directions.
Their expressions darkened as they beheld the towering monstrosity looming over Karakura Town.
Meanwhile, Aaron, now shrouded in a radiant aura, flickered around Cuatro at blinding speed.
At last, the countless Ceros housed within Cuatro's Gillian mouths reached their peak, moments away from firing in every direction.
But before devastation could be unleashed, a massive Reishi net materialized, ensnaring Cuatro's immense frame.
The black thunderclouds overhead let out a final, ear-splitting roar before unleashing four pillars of dazzling energy.
The light enveloped Cuatro from all directions—north, south, east, and west—before collapsing inward.
As the gathered Cero clashed with the four-colored light, Cuatro's body disintegrated into a cloud of glowing embers, fading into the wind.
BOOM!
A final, earth-shaking explosion reverberated through the heavens and earth. The lingering shockwave from the obliterated Cero echoed across Karakura Town.
Standing amidst the aftermath, Aaron floated effortlessly, his feet resting upon four radiant streams of energy. Above his head, a five-pointed star shimmered like a miniature sun. With every beat of his ethereal wings, gusts of wind roared through the sky.
Glancing at a fallen box near his feet, he chuckled softly to himself.
"Well now… they certainly made for two rather unexpected pawns."
