Yuma didn't stay at Tony's for long. After telling him about the Iron Man suit and the house, he left with Rush.
Rush had no objections to leaving with Yuma. He didn't even ask where they were going, nor did he worry about being hunted by S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military with Yuma.
In Rush's words, "I don't know why, but I just want to follow the boss. I feel like something exciting will happen if I follow him."
…
"Tony, if S.H.I.E.L.D. or General Ross' people come to you asking about me, just tell them the truth," Yuma turned back to Tony and said before entering the Garganta. "If you and Banner need to find me later, crush the item I gave you, just like in Afghanistan."
"I will," Tony said, looking at Yuma. "Really not staying? With your abilities, even if they find you, they might not be able to beat you."
"No," Yuma stepped into the Garganta. "I'm not leaving because I'm afraid of them finding me. I have more important things to do."
"Goodbye, Tony. Say goodbye to Banner for me." As he spoke, Yuma stood in the Garganta, watching the passage close, then entered Hueco Mundo with Rush.
…
"Boss, where is this place?"
Rush looked at the vast complex of buildings and the endless white desert of Las Noches and asked Yuma.
He'd never seen a place like this before. Even the desert was white.
The entire white world gave a desolate and mysterious feeling. Not to mention that he always had a faint sense of fear in his heart, as if there were powerful enemies watching him.
"Well," Yuma pondered for a moment and replied. "This place can barely be considered half of my world."
"That's awesome?" Rush was shocked. "This place is actually your world, boss? The kind that belongs to you alone?"
"Half," Yuma corrected him. "At least that complex of buildings doesn't belong to me yet."
"That's not a big deal. We'll just take it over. Then, it'll be your world."
"Besides, compared to this world, those buildings are nothing. They don't even account for one-thousandth!"
Rush waved his hand, as if taking over Las Noches was as simple as eating a meal or drinking water.
"Alright, find a place to hide first," Yuma said with a smile. "Later, if you still have the courage to say that, you'll be the first to charge into battle when we take over Las Noches."
Rush gave an OK gesture, found a giant rock, and hid behind it. He didn't ask why Yuma wanted to hide.
Yuma thought, I'll see if you can still be cocky after you see the strength of the Espada…
Seeing Rush hiding, Yuma flew towards Las Noches. He didn't go far before he encountered the sixth Espada, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, who was standing at the edge of Las Noches.
"It's you, Shinigami," Grimmjow said when he saw Yuma. "I didn't expect you to dare to come after killing Zommari Rureaux."
"What, are you going to avenge him?" Yuma stopped and asked.
"Revenge?" Grimmjow seemed to have heard a funny joke and scoffed. "That kind of trash should have been killed. But it shouldn't have been you,"
Grimmjow drew his Zanpakuto from his left waist. "You broke the rules, Shinigami!"
"If you want to fight, just say it. Why are you making so many excuses?" Yuma materialized his Zanpakuto, completed his transformation, and pointed at the other side. "When were you ever a rule-abiding person?"
After saying that, Yuma charged directly at him.
"Good, Shinigami," Grimmjow blocked Yuma's incoming Zanpakuto and laughed. "If you can make me enjoy the fight, I'll let you live!"
Grimmjow, as the embodiment of "destruction" among the Espada, was a battle maniac, just like the fifth Espada, Nnoitra Gilga.
But the difference is that Nnoitra would not show mercy to any enemy, whether they were stronger than him or much weaker than him. He would even go up and finish off a heavily injured opponent.
This guy has always longed to encounter a strong opponent, become stronger himself, and then die at the hands of a truly strong opponent, except for women!
Grimmjow, however, was passionate about challenging strong opponents on equal terms and purely enjoying the pleasure of fighting.
Like his fight with Ichigo Kurosaki, he would let Inoue recover both of them to their peak state before fighting fairly.
He even went so far as to release "The King's Flash" on Inoue to force Ichigo Kurosaki to use his strongest power, just to have a thrilling fight!
Of course, this situation is an exception. He wouldn't show mercy if he felt Yuma's strength wasn't a match for him.
"Really? I think you should take care of yourself first."
Yuma blocked the other side's Zanpakuto and instantly Hollowfied. Then, he charged towards the other side again.
At this time, Yuma didn't have any thoughts of holding back. Even in his Hollowfied state, he might not be able to beat the other side. If he was careless and got instantly killed, it would be embarrassing.
These characters in Bleach love to use instant kills. If you're not careful, you'll be taken out by the other side's burst attack.
It's ridiculous. They don't even give the supporting characters a chance to live.
"What is this? The power of a Hollow?" Grimmjow was surprised when he saw Yuma's mask and felt the spiritual pressure that was many times stronger than before. "I didn't expect you to be able to use the power of a Hollow as a Shinigami. But this is even better. I can let loose."
Grimmjow was only surprised for a moment. He was more concerned about whether Yuma could hold on longer!
Boom!
Grimmjow kicked Yuma away and pointed his palm at Yuma. A blue Cero condensed in his hand. "Still too weak, Shinigami. Use your Resurrección, or I won't even have the desire to release my Resurrección !"
Facing Grimmjow's Cero, Yuma didn't dodge or avoid it. Instead, he also extended his finger and released a black Cero.
Rumble!
The two Cero met in the air. They only lasted for less than five seconds before the black Cero was swallowed by the blue Cero and then exploded violently.
The energy from the explosion of the two Cero kicked up white sand everywhere, surging outwards like giant waves.
The giant white pillar-shaped buildings and rocks nearby were all engulfed in the explosion, collapsing and turning into debris.
…
"What did I say just now? I think I told the boss that I would help him take over this place," Rush hid in the distance, his eyes wide as he watched the two fight. He couldn't help but mutter, remembering his previous "boastful words."
Slap!
Rush suddenly slapped himself.
"You talk too much!"
…
"You can actually use a Cero ?" Grimmjow was excited after the explosion, looking at Yuma. "I can't wait to see your Resurrección. Will it give me a bigger surprise?"
As he spoke, Grimmjow instantly appeared behind Yuma. He swung his Zanpakuto down hard at Yuma…
