This area has been used as a training ground between arrancar for a long time. However the area is considered taboo as it now serves as a graveyard of fallen arrancar. Unlike the shinigami these fights are fought to the death and the loser's body becomes just another asset to the environment surrounding them. The area is filled with bones upon bones and the ground itself is spiny with various curving parts of the different hollow and arrancar bodies.

As Lord Aizen had wished Netami held her position. Though she had become bored after a while, she still waited until the enemy would arrive. Not far from where the entrance of Gradala she sat down on a large skull that layed face down on the ground. While she sat she twiddled a pink flower in her hand and hummed a sweet little melody along to pass time.

 Validus Stilus - #5 Espada From the entrance of the arena a lone figure would walk. His human appearance would tell the woman that he was arrancar, yet the energy he released would not put him above the tenth espada. When he reached the middle of the gladiatorial like arena Validus looked over to a certain spot in the spectator seats, half crumbled, and gave a small warrior bow before turning his attention to Netami. "I hope you have not been waiting long. I hate to keep my opponents waiting." Rolling his shoulders Validus would take a fighting stance, one that looked similar to western fist fighting. "I am Validus Stilus, the number 5 espada in the army of Ganga. And who might you be?"

"Teehee." She jumped down from her skull and gently hopped to her feet letting out a soft little giggle. Her red hair giving off a maroon sheen. "Hi!" She said cheerfully waving a sleeve at the strange man. She had never seen a real gladiator before. She'd always read stories about them and seeming how powerful they were she couldn't help to get more excited. "My name is Netami." She bowed letting her ponytail flip over her forehead and then back. Her white smile as beautiful as ever. "I'm the 5th ranking Privaron in Aizen's army. Nice to meet you. I never really had to the chance to see a real gladiator! I'm so excited!" She said giving in a girlish shrill of excitement as if she were a fan girl. "You like my arena?" She pointed to her the temple of her skull randomly.

 Validus Stilus - #5 Espada Validus, was not amused. "... you force us to fight on the bones of dead warriors... your arena is not even worthy of the lowliest fight among the lowest scum." Moving faster enough to where his figure was a blur, Validus moved to directly in front of Netami before delivering a powerful left fist to her jaw, making sure the crimson ring collided, missing the mask easily. The punch would be powerful enough to knock her backwards, causing her to stagger before a right fist would collide with her head right between the eyes, a vulnerable spot for any warrior, human or hollow. "... so in short.... I hate it."

"Teehee." As soon as Validus's punch came flying towards it'd only sink into her cero charged palm which fired off at point blank range at Validus. The other hand had been placed on her reiatsu focused zanpaktou which connected with the other arm of Validus that came. "You're funny Mr. Validus." She cheerfully giggled as the cero blasted the man at close range. There had been a high possibility that he couldn't dodged this hadn't the man been traveling such a high direct speed. This caused him to run straight into cero blast which would in turn cause him heavy damage.

 Validus Stilus - #5 Espada When the smoke cleared Validus could be seen standing several meters away, his left arm bloodied. "Tch.... well that was stupid Val. Check for Cero before charging in next time." Raising up his left hand Validus watched as the skin mended itself in a few moments. "... your in trouble now." Letting his hand fall back to his side the crimson ring would shatter, falling to the ground in small pieces.
For a moment nothing would happen, but then Validus' Riatsu would skyrocket, multiplying upon itself several times. "Now that you destroyed my ring... I can't hold back on you." Taking a single step again Validus would vanish, this time moving roughly twice as fast as his previous attack, well above the range where Netami could follow. An instant later he would appear to her left, his sword in his left hand.
"Fall down now..." The moment he finished his words a gash would rip itself open on the woman's chest, traveling from her right to her left, just missing her heart. "For number 5, your really slow, you know that?"

Validus would have far more to worry about other than the cero blasting his arm. In fact his arm would still be bloodied for the simple reason that he didn't have regenerative abilities. When his sword came near her chest, at the start of his words her own zanpaktou crash against his before she herself spiked her reiatsu into her own blade thus overpowering his zanpaktou and sending him flying back a few feet. Once this would happen she would drive up another cero blast for the flying arrancar. "Teehee..I never knew. I guess I'll have to practice running laps around Las Noches then?" She asked both curiously and innocently as she pursued the arrancar, leaving behind broken pieces of fallen warriors behind as she kicked up their bones. "Ooh sorry about that." She apologized to the dead bodies. Some whom she had killed herself and some whom had fallen to the other Privaron. "So Mr. Validus was it you was almost made dead by a normal numero?" She asked the man out of curiosity. Though it was an insult, she hadn't known the pain these words would probably cause the arrancar nor the annoyance.

 Validus Stilus - #5 Espada (Yes I do have regenerative abilities.... check the Physical description.)
Validus would let himself be pushed backwards by the blast of energy before using his swords ability to cut energy to slice the Cero in two, sending the beam around him harmlessly on both sides. He would also use Raishi to stop himself from flying backwards, so that when the female chased after him, his hand would appear an inch in front of her face, a fully charged Cero in his palm already. Without hesitating he would fire the cero point blank in to the woman's head, a lethal shot for anybody, even a numero uno, vaporize it. "Yeah... I was actually, but I had my ring on during the fight, so I was at his level." By using a previous fight against a weaker opponent to judge him, the woman had underestimated him, the number one reason for every death.

Kicking to the side she avoided the cero effortlessly. Reason being because she wasn't traveling at a speed that wouldn't allow her to maneuver. It was the problem with most arrancars. They were about speed and didn't know how to control it. It was a simple question. He had a choice in answering, there was no judgment involved. She looked at him from the skull she stood on earlier and gave another white smile. "I'm bored. Maybe I'll just prolong this battle so lord Aizen-sama gets time..teehee." She giggled revealing to Validus what she was doing. Basically with every move Validus lost time and more time was bought for Aizen's plans. With each moment she was losing interest in this arrancar. He was denying everything that he stood for with that one ability. Gladiators didn't carry potions or ointments in battle with them nor did they bring other healing parcels with them. In this battle it mirrored the opposite effect. This one brought healing abilities. "Maybe we'll just sit around and wait until your friends get killed?" She giggled again. Without his ressurecion he had no chance of winning against her and as a long as she stood here, Gradala Zabuala would hold. "I'm winning!" She shouted in excitement with a clap. She was right. She didn't need to do physical harm to Validus to win. As long as she was alive she had been winning. The only way he'd be able to take over this area was over her corpse.

 Validus Stilus - #5 Espada Smirking slightly, Validus didn't see it that way. He had adapted since he was no longer a human. While human he had thought that portions and the like were wrong, dishonorable, but when becoming a hollow, he had to learn several facts real quick. The first was that he had to change certain rules he had in order to survive. Many of his opponents had the ability to heal, so he used his own, many had special powers, so he held nothing back. He broke no rules, for the game had changed.
"So... you are stalling for time. I figured as much. So tell me, what would happen if I simply ran away?" It was simply a question, one he would not follow on. "... now answer this. How can you be winning, when neither of us is damaged?" Planting his sword tip in the ground Validus would hold out both hands. With a frown hundreds of bullets would begin firing from his fingers, saturating the area and covering the entire arena in a combination of bone fragments and dust, making it impossible to see more than three inches in front of your nose. Now the woman would have to dodge a barrage of bullets that she could now no longer see.

The the balas came tumbling towards the arrancar, she simply took the full extent of their force with her zanpaktou slashing down the middle of each of them. All of them letting out tiny explosions as she cut through them with her sword. With a simple whirl of her reiatsu, she pushed the smoke away from the area around them where they could speak eye to eye. "Easy you dork." She gave a friendly chuckle. "The bad guys are here to take Las Noches from us. Once the big baddy espada have conquer all the main spots it's theres." She said playing with the flower hanging at the end of her zanpaktou's handle. The thing drooped as if it were wilting away and about to drop anytime soon. The soul purpose for her to do was guard the place and hold up until Aizen's plan came through. Something was going to happen. And only Aizen and a select few knew what it was. "I don't need a to be hurt nor do I need to hurt you to win. As long as I'm alive I'm winning." And just as it was said she was right. In order to invade Las Noches they would have to destroy the Privaron they came across. If Validus simply ran away then she would have officially run and Gradala Zabuala would be officially conquered by Netami, as it hadn't been taken from her yet. The more Validus toyed around, the more time it bought Netami and the higher the chances came for one of the espada to lose. After all once one would fall the opponent for the next espada would double. And she already knew someone who would be on their way soon. "Excuses excuses." She said making fun of him. A real warrior didn't need regenerative abilities. And if he were half the warrior who needed a ring to suppress his power and add to the challenge of battle, he completed defeated the purpose by adding regenerative abilities. "You have a ring but you regenerate..teehee." She giggled at the thought of how his power contradicted itself shamefully. "Can you keep a secret? I can." This time she wanted a challenge as well. Since Aizen was a step ahead of the game already. "See that quincy woman being guarded. Her powers will help Aizen in his plan to destroy you and the shinigami. Just wait until the tests finish running and you'll see."

The tall arrancer that recently 'left' the sides of Ganta and the other Espada appeared about ten yards away from the two fighting. Almidon looked at Validus, recognizing him from their first encounter when in Karakura Town. Almidon arrived in this location just in time to hear Netami talk. "Validus, let's finish her..." Almidon grabbed the hilt of his large zanpakutou that was positioned on his back, removing it from his back and holding it outwards towards Netami. "Time to ********' die..."

 Validus Stilus - Resurrecion - #5 Espada Looking over at Almidon with a bored gaze, Validus actually cracked a small smile. "Ahh.... damn. I hoped you had defected to their side. I wanted to fight you." Grabbing his Zampakutou along his back Validus drew it. "But... your right. If I needed the ring, I guess I should quit playing around, and kill you now. So Dragon of the west.... time to ROAR!" As he drew his sword, dust would kick up, obscuring the area. Immediately, an intense killing Ki could be felt, and the next, Validus would be directly in front of the female, the long spear like weapon attempting to take of her head in one go. This however was not a trick, or the same speed. This time, he was faster, much faster. In the army of Ganga, Validus, though ranked number 5, was one of the fastest. While he had traded off power and defense for it, he could more than make up for it with his speed.

Almidon simply stood there as he watched Validus disappear, or at least seem to to the eyes of others. "Well, you see...I offered to not interfere; I mean, I didn't just come out and say it like that...but it meant the same. But instead, they attacked me. So don't think I'm doing this for that b*****d Ganga...I'm doing this cause they pissed me off!!" Right before he ended his statement, Almdion jerked his fist forward while at the same time, a cero gathered at the tip of his blade. The cero was blasted first, followed by a Bala, timed perfectly so the two would meet just before reaching Netami, exploding upon contact with each other. The result blast would be stronger than that of the average Cero at an Arrancer level. Anything caught in a head on blast of it would suffer severe injuries, if not die.
