Forest Of Menos

[Ouka Skysoul]

Gillian- and Adjuchas-class Menos dwell here, along with possibly Vasto Lorde-class Menos. The forest is filled with large trees made of a silvery quartz substance. These trees extend to the surface and dot the landscape of the desert in Hueco Mundo.

A lineup of well over a dozen hollows standing shoulder-to-shoulder, properly erect, chest out, without any moving a single muscle, stretched across the Forest floor like solders ready for inspection. Shaka walked by in front of them all, his head turned toward them with eyes that seem to look straight into each one's soul. He stops at the end of the line and turns back around proceeding with a second look over. This was one of the ways that hollows would be chosen to join the arrancar. Some came eagerly with ideas of becoming a high rank solder or just being strong enough to kill a shinigami with ease when they wanted, others just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time when Shaka walked by looking for more to recruit. Only the best would be chosen as Shaka believes any team is only as strong as it's weakest members.

Shaka finishes his inspection and walks to in front of the center of the group, he puts his right hand underneath his chin and nods. He than puts both hands into his pockets and walks over to one very large hollow that towered above him and most of the other hollows that were there. It was an adjuchas-class, male (as were most of them). "You" said Shaka as quickly jump to the hollow's face pulling one arm from his pocket and griped on to his mask cracking it with brute force and than teared it off, all slightly too fast for any of the other hollows to see more than just a blur and too quick for the victim to even know what just happen. The hollow fell backward screaming in pain, his reiatsu engulfing him as he crashed into the ground. Shaka turned to the others "you are all dismissed" he said to them with a calm voice and they left without a word.

He looked back to the other hollow, his transformation was complete and he stood there grinning with excitement. Congratulations your now an arrancar and much stronger than ordinary hollows. Put this on and come with me," Shaka says as he tosses him a uniform. The two start on the path to the World or The Living.
