BZZZT—BOOM!
Lázaro barely twisted out of the way as Lucius' blade sliced through the air where his torso had been a second ago. Even with Zommari's speed, he was struggling. This wasn't normal.
Lucius was moving way too freaking fast. It was as if he was bending space in order to speed up even more. This wasn't just Sonído.
It was way more than that.
He was bending space to achieve this level of speed. Lázaro wasn't a betting man, but if he were to guess...
Gabriel had decided to awaken the most broken power known to man. For fuck's sake, how the fuck does one justify Resurrección and Shikai at the same time?
What next, Segunda Etapa with Bankai...?
Oh god, no.
The Nephilim ceiling rooftop was truly far above average Hollows, yet that ceiling was still below his majesty.
That wasn't glazing. His majesty's power was just that powerful. Last he checked, his majesty had started to make multiple hands and mouths on his body to shoot Kido spells while he himself focused on fighting.
Even making a dozen or so clones that could do the same thing. Truly a horrifying thought. The only real issue would be that it required a lot of Reiatsu. However, that could also be fixed with his majesty's technique.
Man always had the equivalent of like six Senzu Beans on him at all times. So, unless the person he was fighting had some busted power like control over names or fire that could burn fire, he would be fine.
He might even find a way to kill them somehow. His majesty's power almost seemed demonic in nature—there was nothing he couldn't destroy.
Enough glazing his majesty. Back to the battlefield.
Lázaro blurred across the battlefield, trying to create distance, but—
BZZZT—BOOM!
Lucius was already there.
"You're quite the persistent one," Lucius said coolly, effortlessly dodging Lázaro's retaliatory swipe.
The Arrancar gritted his teeth. Fuck this guy. He was too calm. Too composed. Like he knew he had already won and was just indulging Lázaro for fun.
He needed to steal something big—something that could turn the tables.
Lucius' divine skill. He was going to pull a devious lick.
Lázaro knew what it was called.
"Eternal Divide."
A skill that cut through any type of defense, reducing all things to their truest division—whether it was matter, energy, or space.
That was his golden ticket.
He just needed one opening.
One chance to pull off this lick.
BZZZT—BOOM!
Lázaro lunged forward, deliberately overextending, letting Lucius' blade carve into his shoulder.
The pain was immediate, but the reward?
Worth it.
He felt it—Eternal Divide sinking into his very being.
And now? It was his.
Lucius flicked the blood off his blade, unimpressed. "I do not like having lesser beings' blood on my body."
"You sure about that?" Lázaro was happy. He had just pulled a lick, and now he had a busted ability.
Lucius narrowed his eyes—
SCHLINK!
A clean slice. A perfect, effortless cut.
Lucius stumbled slightly, his eyes widening as his left arm fell to the ground, severed completely at the shoulder.
A hush fell over the arena.
Lázaro, standing tall, flexed his fingers as Eternal Divide pulsed through his veins.
"Oh-ho!" Lázaro barked out a laugh, stepping back with a smug grin. "Looks like I win now, huh?" He mockingly tilted his head. "Sucks, doesn't it? Getting hit by your own move?"
Lucius stared at his missing arm. Silent. Unbothered. Then, his lips curled into an amused smirk.
"It's fine."
"The hell do you mean 'it's fine'?" Was this man high? He got his arm cut off. And sure, he had high-speed regeneration, which was just a bit unfair considering the body was that of a Shinigami, but oh well.
The man didn't seem to care about the fact that he lost an arm.
Lucius tilted his head slightly.
"Only I could ever hurt myself."
Lázaro's grin faltered just a bit. The fuck kind of logic was that?
Before he could question it, Lucius sighed and slowly reached for his sword.
"Enough games." His voice carried finality. "You are not my equal, and I am growing bored of this."
Lázaro tensed. This wasn't good. He needed to end this first.
Lucius lifted his sword. The air around him shuddered.
Lázaro's eyes narrowed. Another Eternal Divide?
Fine.
He'd match it.
"Eternal Divide!"
Lázaro swung. The air itself split apart, space rupturing in the wake of his stolen ability.
Lucius swung.
Something felt off. His blade... was covered in a purple energy. Eternal Divide was like bluish, sometimes red—not purple.
Why the fuck was it purple?
Was it a super-duper attack? No.
It couldn't be.
Lázaro blinked.
Huh?
Then, his vision tilted.
The world turned sideways.
His body... was falling.
...Wait.
His lower half hit the ground first.
His upper half followed.
He was split.
Perfectly.
Oh.
Blood gushed from the precise bisecting wound, splattering across the battlefield in thick, crimson arcs.
Lucius gracefully wiped the blood from his blade, his expression one of mild disgust.
"I detest being tainted by filth."
Lázaro, still somehow conscious, looked up at him, shocked. How? He stole Eternal Divide—that should have been enough!
Lucius, without a word, deactivated both his Shikai and Resurrección.
He turned towards Gabriel, his features settling into an expression of calm arrogance.
Then, with perfect composure, he politely bowed to the king.
Straightening, he turned on his heel and walked away, not bothering to acknowledge Lázaro's still-writhing form.
He would win. He would prove that he was strong—that he was worthy of his majesty's favoritism.
He was... Lucius Null – The Untouchable Void.
A/N Ok...so now Hakari left, probably be a Nephilim, same power, probably would be in greed, with his jackpot and shit
anyway, how strong is Lucius Null - The Untouchable Void.
Mind you, the bare minimum requirement for a lesser sin is like vice-captain level,Lillith is like captain level, if she was in the original espada group, probably be espada 5 or 6, depends really. Probably treat Nnoitra as her pet and does stuff to him but he is way to machoes to acknowledge he is in fact being played with, and graped, his ego would never allowed it.
Anyway, all of this to say,
Lázaro would probably be like 6 or 7.
Current Grimmjow would be like 4 if we exclude Ulquiorra segunda etapa.
Current Starrk, would beat his canon self full power in his base form using only one hand.
Mind you, this Starrk had not split into 2 entity yet, and he has been actually training, and we like 80 something is years away from canon.
