The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 448 - Hela & Rumi VS Gotei 13 (I)...

[Knox, Karakura Town]

Hela appeared inside the house as she went straight towards the bath and then is when she noticed several other strong Spiritual Pressures appeared inside the city.

Hela immediately forgot about taking a bath. 'They are Shinigamis, right?' Hela asked her husband through the connection.

'Yes, they arrived in the Human World only a few moments ago. If you are going back then take Rumi with you. She has been whining' she received an answer and honestly, she wasn't satisfied with the answer.

Hela released a sigh as she understood Rumi's plight. It has been some time since Rumi had a decent fight so she decided to take Rumi with her. Hela disappeared in a wisp of greenish-black smoke and appeared inside the Training room.

"Looks like you are already ready…" Hela pointed out when she noticed that Rumi was already in her armor..

"Yes, I was about to leave… Are you coming too?" Rumi asked and Hela simply nodded.

"If you are ready then let's go" Hela urged and Rumi approached Hela. Hela placed her arm over Rumi's shoulder and both of them disappeared in a wisp of greenish-black smoke…

[Back at the Crater]

The Captain-Commander opened his eyes slightly as he carefully saw the destruction. He landed inside the crater surprising everyone with his sudden move.

He hummed when he felt the power radiating from the crater. He was sure that the crater was made by some sort of Kido Spells but he has never encountered such a spell. It felt like the Hado #99 but he was pretty sure that this wasn't Hado #99.

All of a sudden the Captain-Commander froze and looked up to see two women standing in the air. Everyone had noticed the arrival of the duo… but nobody made a move as Captain-Commander raised up his hand.

The two women slowly landed in front of him. Hela had an ecstatic look on her face. She was glad that she had returned or she would have missed the fight.

"Are you the one responsible for this?" the Captain-Commander asked in a low tone but both Hela and Rumi could feel the weight of his words… both felt their blood boiling in excitement.

"Yes" Hela said with a huge grin on her face and the Captain-Commander simply hummed in understanding.

"I assume that you returned to fight?" the Captain-Commander asked and Hela gleefully nodded her head.

"This is the first time I came here… I was feeling left out" Rumi butted into the conversation. She didn't like the fact that she was being neglected.

The Captain-Commander hummed and turned his head to look towards the Captain of the 12th Division and nodded his head. Mayuri Kurotsuchi tilted his head as he pushed some buttons on the device he was carrying.

Hela and Rumi kept watching in utter fascination as the barrier was erected surrounding the crater. Then the Captain-Commander's eyes focused on the forms of Hela and Rumi.

"Now, no one will be able to disturb us. I hope you don't regret it" the Captain-Commander said and both Hela and Rumi decided not to humor him with an answer.

"Rumi, why don't you go and fight the Captains while I take care of this little child" Hela said while looking towards Captain-Commander.

Some Captains released their Spiritual Pressures and they were about to attack Hela but the Captain-Commander raised his hand to stop them. Hela saw the reaction and cackled in mad glee.

"All of your reactions were so lovely…" Hela gushed out. "Though it wasn't a lie. In front of me, you are nothing but a child" Hela said with a serious look on her face as she stopped laughing.

"How did you reach that conclusion?" the Captain-Commander asked in a neutral tone. He was really old and experienced, there was no way he would react to such taunts.

"I am more than five thousand years old…" Hela pointed out, shocking everyone.

"Impossible!!! There is no way a Soul can survive that long before moving on!!" The Captain of the 12th Division protested hysterically as a lot of Captains agreed with him. Hela simply snorted.

"I never said I was Soul" Hela pointed out with a snort. The Captain-Commander hummed in understanding.

"Then what are you?" the Captain-Commander asked curiously.

"I am Hela the Goddess of War and Death" Hela proclaimed, a couple of Captains snorted after hearing her words. The Captain-Commander didn't say anything.

Hela didn't bother to correct anyone as everyone would believe her after she turned everyone into a bloody mess… no one would deny her claim after that but she noticed a Captain was looking at her wide eyes.

The Captain was wearing a flowery robe and Hela could see recognition in his eyes but for now, Hela didn't seem to react. "Oh! Come on! We came here to fight!! We can blab afterward" Rumi whined and Hela gave her an amused look.

This was the first time Hela had seen Rumi whining. "I agree with her. Justice will be served" a black-skinned Captain who was wearing a blindfold said as he came to the front.

"Sure…" Hela said with a shrug as she started to release her Spiritual Pressure, shocking everyone except Rumi. They had heard that they had sensed a Spiritual Pressure equal to Captain-Commander's but none of them had believed it.

"Lieutenants, clear this area. This fight is not for you" The Captain-Commander ordered as he released his own Spiritual Pressure. Rumi also followed their lead and released her Spiritual Pressure.

Once again the Captains were shocked to see that the other woman was also strong. Rumi was strong like Hela but her Spiritual Pressure was slightly higher than normal Captains.

"Looks like I hit the jackpot… So many opponents! I don't know how to fight using a sword so please don't mind me" Rumi said as she pulled out her Zanpakutou.

"Roar, Nemea!" Rumi exclaimed and with a silverish flash, her Zanpakutou started to transform into two gauntlets. Her hands were covered by two gauntlets but her eyes were focused on her opponents.

"This is what I have been talking about!!" the Captain of 11th Division exclaimed as lunged towards Rumi and also lunged towards the man as pulled back her fist…

At the same time, Hela's and the Captain-Commander's Spiritual Pressure collided creating a huge shockwave…

[Underground Training Area, Urahara Shop]

"We need more help or most of them will die" Yoruichi said in a solemn tone. She was still in her human form.

"I am going to get some help" Tessai said in a neutral tone as he turned around to leave but Yoruichi grabbed his shoulder.

"No! You can't ask them! You know what is going to happen to us if the Shinigamis capture us" Yoruichi said and Tessai simply shook his head.

"Don't worry, I will ask Unohana-San, she will surely help us" Tessai said and Yoruichi didn't seem to be convinced.

"Tessai is right. Unohana-San will obviously help us, you don't have to worry about her" Kisuke Urahara pointed out. He was currently trying to keep Mashiro Kana alive, due to losing her leg, she had lost a lot of blood.

"I also know that Unohana would help us but what about the others?" Yoruichi questioned.

"We will deal with it when the time comes, she is the only one capable enough to save everyone" Kisuke Urahara said and this time Yoruichi had an argument. She also knew how good Unohana was.

Yoruichi finally let Tessai go as he gave a nod and headed out. Tessai finally left the Urahara Shop and headed straight towards Captain Unohana's location. Thankfully Unohana was quite far from the others.

As Tessai approached Captain Unohana several Shinigamis appeared in front of him with their Zanpakutous pointed towards him. "Who are you?" One of them questioned but Unohana herself appeared behind the group.

"Let him come" Unohana said softly and the Shinigamis reluctantly retreated back. Tessai approached Unohana and bowed down his head.

"Please help us!!" Tessai exclaimed and Unohana's lieutenant Isane wanted to ask something but Unohana cut her off.

"Isane, you stay here and help the humans" Unohana said in a polite tone. Isane wanted to protest but she knew her Captain very well. There was no way that her Captain would deny healing anyone.

Isane reluctantly nodded her head and then Unohana's eyes focused on the form of Tessai who was still bowing down. "Please, lead me" Unohana said in a kind tone.

Tessai finally looked up as he raised up his head. He immediately started to lead her towards the Urahara Shop. Only after a couple of minutes, the two of them arrived in front of the Urahara Shop.

Tessai quickly led her to the Underground Training Area. Yoruichi was standing at the side while Kisuke Urahara was still helping everyone. Currently, he was helping Love Aikawa, he had also lost a lot of blood after getting stabbed.

Unohana quickly scanned everyone's condition with her eyes and a thin smile appeared on her face. She pulled out her Zanpakutou and released her Shikai.

"Minazuki, please heal these four" Unohana said while pointing towards Hirako Shinji, Kurosaki Isshin, Love Aikawa, and Kensei Muguruma. The manta stingray immediately swallowed the four.

"Urahara-San, do you have their limbs?" Unohana asked, looking towards Ryuken Ishida and Masahiro Kana.

Kisuke Urahara quickly pointed her towards the severed limbs. Unohana quickly inspected the limbs and grimaced. "Forgive me Urahara-San but I won't be able to help him" Unohana said while pointing towards Ryuken Ishida.

Kisuke Urahara could only solemnly nod his head. He knew that if Unohana couldn't do it then there was no one who could do it. Unohana quickly grabbed Mashiro Kana's leg as she went to help her…
