204: Chapter 204 Mia VS Dorudoni Alessandro Del Socaccio

When the metal door marked [No. 103] was pushed open a crack, a blazing scarlet light had already filled the gap.

"Cero: Crimson Cloud!"

Accompanied by a low male voice, a torrent of ultra-high-density spiritual power, enough to melt through steel structures, came crashing down!

"Bakudo No. 81: Danku."

Mia didn't even look up; her left hand formed a spell seal as she pushed forward. A transparent spiritual barrier formed instantly, and the scarlet torrent of the Cero twisted and deflected in the air, grazing the tops of their heads and leaving a long scorch mark on the metal corridor behind them.

As the dust settled, a middle-aged man with a goatee standing in the center of the hall maintained a firing posture, the copper rings on his right ear jingling under the surging spiritual pressure.

"Using an incantation-less Bakudo No. 81..." Dordoni retracted his offensive stance, the thin tassels on his sleeves moving without wind, "It seems you're not just some lost Hollow."

Mia stepped slowly into the hall as the metal door closed automatically behind her. The moment her toes touched the ground, the Blood Rose Curse beneath her silk-clad feet flickered, and the runes of the Heavenly Decree flowed around her ankles—this was an advanced movement technique she had developed in her spare time, combining the Golden Light Spell with the Xu Step.

"Arrancar No. 103, Dordoni Alessandro Del Socaccio." Mia's right hand rested on the hilt of her decorative zanpakuto, while her left hand hung naturally at her side. "Make way or lie in a pool of blood. Choose one."

The goatee-sporting man suddenly burst into laughter. "Arrogant Soul Reaper! Even if you are Captain-class..." Before he could finish, his pupils suddenly constricted.

The beautiful figure who had been standing twenty meters away had already vanished.

"Kun Word—Earth River Chariot!" (survival maintenance system: Thanks to Daoist Wang Ye for the guidance!)

Accompanied by a violent roar from the ground, the metal floor beneath Dordoni's feet suddenly turned into a flowing quagmire. Almost at the same moment, a whip-like kick wrapped in pink flowing light swept toward his temple.

"Boom—!"

The violent airwave blasted the liquid metal on the ground into radial ripples. Dordoni's figure vanished at the last moment, reappearing on a pillar ten meters away. However, a bloody gash was still carved onto his left cheek by the fierce wind.

"...Interesting." He wiped away the blood, his right hand gripping his zanpakuto. "Rotate, Giralda!"

A cyan whirlwind erupted from his legs, and the airflow in the entire hall immediately became turbulent. Two tornadoes coiled around his shins, swirling metal fragments into the air.

Seeing this, Mia smiled and held two fingers up like a sword before her chest: "Perfect time to try a new move—Heavenly Decree: Feng Hou Qi Men."

The Reishi in the air suddenly arranged themselves according to the Bagua positions, and the airflow originally controlled by the Arrancar was immediately incorporated into the system of Daoist sorcery. Dordoni discovered to his horror that the whirlwinds he was most proficient with had actually stopped obeying him.

"Using wind against a sorcerer? (What sorcerer? Does an Alchemist count as one?)" Mia's figure flickered in and out of the turbulent airflow. "Uncle, have you never encountered an opponent like me before?"

The enraged Arrancar instantly charged to a very close distance, his right leg wrapped in a whirlwind drawing a cyan arc: "Azure Storm Kick!"

This kick was enough to shatter the outer walls of Las Noches. But Mia neither dodged nor avoided it; her right hand glowed with a pink luster: "Ruyi Strength: Neutralize."

The kick, containing terrifying kinetic energy, seemed to sink into a swamp as all its power was eerily dispersed and channeled into the ground beneath her feet. The metal floor surged like water, shedding the impact in all directions.

Before Dordoni could even be surprised, he saw this unfairly beautiful woman closing in. Her movements suddenly became ethereal and unpredictable, every step landing on a Bagua position.

"Tumulary Flow—Taiji Yang Hand!"

A seemingly light palm strike pressed against the Arrancar's chest, but in the next second, it exploded with a force like a landslide or a tsunami. Dordoni flew backward like a cannonball, crashing through several metal walls in succession.

A roar of laughter born of extreme rage came from the dust: "Good!! Very good!!" A scarlet Cero condensed deep within the broken corridor. "Cero Tripla!!"

Three scarlet rays intertwined into a web of death. This high-density spiritual power impact was enough to vaporize the zanpakuto of an average Captain.

Mia finally drew her blade.

"Setsuna!!" Mia's Battojutsu had been polished to perfection over these fifty years.

As the zanpakuto left its scabbard by three inches, a brilliant blade light directly sliced through the incoming Cero. The energy, enough to destroy half of the underground battlefield, was silently annihilated in an instant.

"Impossible!" Dordoni leaped from the ruins, fragments of his mask falling away. "What kind of sword technique is this?!"

The answer he received was a toe wrapped in a black silk stocking suddenly appearing before the tip of his nose.

"Bang!"

This "Heel Drop," derived from [Feng Hou Qi Men], smashed the Arrancar into the ground. Mia floated down to the edge of the crater, watching her blood-stained opponent struggle to rise. The whirlwinds of Giralda were now as weak as a candle in the wind.

"That palm strike just now broke several of your ribs." Mia used her hand to tuck back her hair, which was pinned up by a metal-textured curved horn. "Now your leg bone should be cracked too. You don't even have the means to attack anymore; do you still want to continue?"

Dordoni laughed wildly while spitting out blood, then suddenly tore off his earring and crushed it. "Lord Aizen said... it's better to die than to fail in guarding!"

A violent spiritual pressure soared into the sky. He had actually forced himself into a second stage of Resurrección! His already tall body expanded once more, and the whirlwinds on his legs were stained with an ominous dark red.

Mia sighed and finally drew her zanpakuto completely. "Aizen's damn personal charisma... I didn't want to use this..."

She reached for the brilliant ruby on her choker...

"Wait!"

A sudden shout interrupted Mia's action. Everyone turned back to see Tuaner, who had at some point hacked the surveillance system, sitting casually on a sub-control console.

"Had your fun fighting?" She swung her legs and pointed at the ceiling. "If you delay any longer, all the Arrancars above are going to come down!"

As if to confirm her words, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded throughout the underground space. Mia stuck out her tongue, sheathed her sword, but her hands formed an even more complex spell seal.

"Then let's end this quickly—Heavenly Decree: Ghost Lock!"

Countless golden talismans gushed from her sleeves, forming a three-dimensional array ten meters in diameter in the air. Dordoni's ultimate Cero hadn't even been fired before it was bound layer by layer by suddenly appearing spiritual chains.

"This is an improved version combined with Bakudo!" Mia pressed her hands together. "Seal!"

The runes on the chains lit up with a ghostly blue light. The Arrancar let out an unwilling roar, but his body uncontrollably fell to one knee. Those runes were frantically draining his spiritual pressure.

Tuaner He whistled：" It should have been done a long time ago." She jumped off the control panel.， He waved to the stunned Ryan and Xiaoya.，" Don't just stand there.， Come help tie people up!！ I can go back and sell it to that pervert Mayuri Kurotsuchi.， It's estimated that it can bring a lot of benefits.！" Sister Lolan covered her mouth and laughed, "Tuan Tuan is a little money-grubber.".

As everyone scrambled to stuff the unconscious Arrancar into a Reishi Restraint Device, the sound of dense air-breaking whistles already came from above. Mia wiped the non-existent sweat from her forehead.

"Alright, we should..."

Her voice stopped abruptly.

Everyone froze in place.

Because the entire Las Noches was suddenly enveloped by some kind of higher-level spiritual pressure. It gave Mia the feeling of having encountered one of her own kind.

"Oh boy." Tuaner gave a dry laugh as she looked at her teammates. "This spiritual pressure... it couldn't be that Aizen found us, right? That would be bad..."

Her answer was the sudden collapse of an entire wall. Amidst the dust, a tall figure strode forward, stroking a zanpakuto.

"Good evening, Sister Mia!" Gin Ichimaru smiled like a fox. "Do you need a guide?"
