Chapter 27: Chapter 26
"Kakakusha Hō, Niban: Kagizaki!" I distantly heard the shout of Kūkaku right before the bottom of our sphere of spiritual power lit up and we were suddenly in the sky. I had to give it to Shiba family, they were good at this whole fireworks thing. Though admittedly I would be willing to praise them far more if I wasn't inside the 'firework' that was heading towards a near impenetrable barrier right now right now.
"Kagizaki, Second Incantation!" I couldn't think much more about my misgiving about being inside a giant sphere that was about to crash into a barrier because Ganju just pulled out a sheet of paper and started to read the rest of the incantations that were supposed to help our shell not break completely when we came into contact with Seireitei's barrier and un-alive us.
So of course the rest of our team ended up distracting the Shiba man with their stupid conversation, causing him to mispronounce several parts of his incantation. Good news, that didn't just end up causing the shell to completely collapse since we had already had came into contact with the barrier. Bad news, the shell still collapsed slightly so we were about to be shot into separate parts of Seireitei.
I didn't see who was with who so there was a non zero chance that the pairings had changed from the canon timeline but it wouldn't matter anyway since I was planning to get all the attention on myself. Which I already was doing by hovering in the sky, making several Shinigami point towards me since the effects of barrier was supposed to make it impossible for one to 'stand' on the air like most Shinigami could do in the human world. Win for gravity based powers not requiring me to 'stand' in air to fly.
Still, simply hovering in the air wouldn't be enough. It probably wouldn't even take the morons down there to realize that most of them could use Kido, which could reach me even in sky. No, I needed to do something... bigger. More drastic.
Fortunately for me, there seemed to be a barrack full of Shinigami with a certain number on it in my sight and all the captains were conveniently away in a meeting.
"Pardon for the intrusion!" I yelled with a manic grin on my face as I dive bombed at the building with my sword materializing in my hand.
*BOOM*

"What was that sound?!" Captain Soi Fon yelled as all the captains, with the exception of captain commander, looked outside when the whole light show in the sky happened.
Gin had to give it to Aizen, the fucking bastard, he really did foresee the whole plan of Urahara with the young ones coming to save Kuchiki girl and even that they would go to Shiba Kūkaku in order to use her cannon to get into Seireitei.
Though Gin's ever present smile had gotten a tiny little bit more genuine when he had foreseen the man's confusion when he told him about the fun human that had managed to stop his slashes. Sure, Gin hadn't exactly been serious but the human hadn't seem exactly concerned while he was being pushed out when they tried to get in through Jidanbō's door so Gin would assume that he hadn't been entirely serious either.
Before he could think any further about the joys of something Aizen actually hadn't expected happening, a messenger suddenly barged into the room and kneeled before them. Smart, he knew there were at least two people who might be thinking about killing the poor guy for barging in like that.
"Sirs, an urgent message!" The messenger yelled from his kneeling position. "An unknown object has impacted the barracks of the fifth division and completely destroyed it!"
...wow. Gin was starting to think that maybe Urahara actually had explained to his charges about Aizen, contrary to the man's belief about the exiled captain keeping secrets, and had to hold himself back from laughing cause unlike the others in the room he knew that the dismayed and worried for subordinates look that Aizen had was actually his way of cursing to the high heavens in frustration.
He was really starting to like that human.

"That fucking bastard." Ichigo grunted as he climbed out of the pit of sand he, Ganju and Chad had fallen into. "I hate sand."
"Be a little more grateful, my technique is the only reason we didn't become paste when we landed!" Ganju yelled as he was hauled out of the pit by Chad who simply brushed the sand off of himself without a word.
Ichigo wasn't thinking about that though, instead he was thinking about the last thing he had seen before their spirit sphere had completely broken apart and sent them all in different directions; which was Cain grinning maniacally as he grabbed Ichigo and then he had impacted Chad. Sure it was very helpful that he was with his friend but the bastard had clearly taken too much enjoyment out of throwing him! When he got his hands on the bastard...
"Here they are!" His promises of immense violence would have to wait as they were suddenly surrounded by lots of Shinigami. Lots of Shinigami that all had uncanny resemblances to the delinquents he used to beat up back in streets. Damn, he hadn't killed any of them had he?
"Hahahaha! Foolish ryoka, you chose the worst spot to land in! Now we will show you why no one messes with the eleventh squa-GAH!" Oh well, none of them were lieutenants or captains so there was nothing stopping Ichigo from kicking them.

"So this is the level of a common Shinigami? Expected but still disappointing."
"Stop trying to act cool, one of them would have stabbed you in the back if it wasn't for me." Tatsuki said with a huff. She hadn't exactly liked Ishida at the start due to the whole hollow bait fiasco but had grown out of her dislike after hearing his story and his apology. Now she was starting to dislike his because he was an edgy little shit. "Orihime, stop. We're not healing the enemies." Though at least dealing with him was easier than Orihime and her nice-ness. The girl looked like a kicked puppy after Tatsuki stopped her from healing the enemy. Still, there was no time to deal with that.
"Oi bastard, tell me where you guys are keeping Rukia." They had a friend to rescue.
