[Primera Espada][The Birth of Sonya] [Cain Magnus Kage] __________________
Kurogane was shot back as blood begun to pool on the ground from his knuckles. He was serious now in this battle, his eyes were beginning to take on the look of his reiatsu glowing in a Dark Blue hue. He wasn't at all knocked off balanced in the least due to the fact he was floating in the air doing this whole attack. As the Sovereign congratulated him on being able to attack him enough to the point he was forced to use some of his spirit energy in a defensive way. As he would begin to continue and said harder, Kurogane didn't hesitate to oblige the ruler. He launched forth towards Caelum as he moved to make a punch once more only this time, the moment he got inches away from the Sovereign, he launched a Force Punch towards him. This pure reiatsu technique would send dark blue spiritual energy mixing with the wind to create razor sharp slicing waves strong enough to slice through most Heirro.
He knew this wouldn't be it for the Sovereign, surely he had something prepared to counter, therefore, Kurogane kept his defenses on high as he went through the mental motions of his retaliations to his Leader's possible retaliation.
That was quite the feat, what the great Arrancar had done, taking what could very well have been the full force of His Arrancar's hakuda attack in Resurreccion. And seeming outwardly almost wholly unaffected. Retaking His custom fighting stance following His encouragement, Caelum watched as Cain readied to bring more. Could it be? Was the Sovereign beginning to enjoy Himself? Was He really allowing Himself to let loose? Cain would very quickly find out.Here it comes...The moment Cain launched forward Caelum's features changed. He smiled. Suddenly He lunged forward in a crouching dash; utilizing Cain's being airborne to His advantage, Caelum shot under him and came up hard with a point blank full force uppercut directly at the man's stomach, aimed for the diaphragm. Intending to slam Caelum's curled fist into Cain's diaphragm, Caelum's eyes would glow afterward as He released a modified and far more powerful version of Oni Dekopin, the energy concentrated muscles and jackhammered forward in an astoundingly potent, focused and concentrated wave of physical force to quite literally slam into Cain's midsection. The result would leave Cain utterly breathless, potentially coughing up blood, thereafter finding it hard to breathe, not to mention flying straight into the sky. Caelum physical strength alone was already immense, to say the least, but to couple that with this.... He wanted to show them exactly what they were dealing with. And just as He did, the air around his form began to shimmer and to tremble as the air itself began to oscillate.
Used Techs:
Oni Headpoke (鬼デコピン, "Oni Dekopin") Despite its simple appearance, it is an advanced reiryoku manipulation-hakuda technique. The practitioner gathers their reiatsu, folding it inward until it encloses their palm and with a simple finger flick, is able to project their reiatsu outward in an area no larger than a finger. This results in a tremendous but pinpoint wave of physical force, that crashes into an opponent, and hurtling them a considerable distance away. The power of this technique is proportional to the reiatsu of the practitioner, and with training one could send their reiatsu forward through other simple movements. Masters can apply this methodology to other movements if they possess sufficient reiatsu control.

Kurogane was expecting the Sovereign to move in for a closer attack, close range combat was his speciality. The Sovereign apparently planned to attack him with the same attack he planned on using on him in the beginning of this bout. His defenses were on alert as the Sovereign moved in closer to perform an uppercut to an area he believed to be an opening. In Kurogane's fighting style, most openings including this one, were set ups for the opponent to make a fool of themselves trying to use for their advantage. As the fist came in, hard and fast, Kurogane deflected it with a Guan Sau[low] technique from his Wing Chun style to deflect the midsection technique putting him well within the Sovereign's personal space to deliver a front kick charged with a shockwave towards the Sovereign's chest in his crouched position.
Wing Chun Defensive technique Guan Sau[low]: The low Gaun Sao or Splitting block is used to block attacks to the mid section. It is an essential part of the Wing Chun blocking arsenal.
Gaun Sau is ideally used as a block or cover in Wing Chun when attacks are coming low especially attacks to the ribs. This includes uppercuts and low hook punches. The Gaun Sau is one of the essential blocks of the system as it is one of the few techniques that is used to protect the ribs. The blocking area is the outside of the forearm below the wrist.
Resurreccion Shockwave: By swinging his Zanpakuto, hand, or wing, Kurogane can fling razor sharp winds in the form of dark blue reiatsu towards his target. The attack acts as a blast and not a continuous flow lasting just for the post of which it was flung.
Cain's block, designed for midsection protection, namely of the ribs, did little to protect the released Arrancar from the fury of the King's strike. Doing little more than to change the point of impact, Caelum's fist slammed into Cain's lower abdomen, pounding into him just above the pelvis. Then came the savage contact of the intense physical force of His modified Oni Dekopin. Caelum had tasted Cain's Hierro already, and even his formidable iron skin wouldn't protect him from the wrath of this two-pronged-strike. Sending Cain flying high into the air, Caelum immediate sonido'd overhead horizontally aligned to follow-up. Immediately a thought came to mind, but going with the alternative, Caelum went to deliver another daunting blow."Ikotsu..."Aimed at Cain's rapidly approaching back, the punch was carefully aimed to miss the spine...but that could easily be disrupted by a wrong move.... And that was not all the King had up His sleeve.
Despite the, ultimately, short span of time He'd spent engaged with the group, already some things was quite clear to Him.
Used Techs:
Ikkotsu (一骨, "Single Bone") A powerful punch used Shinigami and fighters skilled in the arts of Hakuda. Using this technique, the user executes a powerful punch to the opponent, most commonly at the abdomen and sends them flying with enough force to potentially travel along a city street and into a building, destroying it.

When it came down to Kurogane's personal fighting style he was pretty good, but not perfect as there were bound to be mistakes in his techniques. Having the Strongest Heirro in the Espada ranks could only take him so far as he redirect the Sovereigns technique, but not in the way he wanted to. It was a split decision action that would prove to be the wrong as he was shot forth into the air. He was feeling pain he had not been use to feeling in a long time. How far was he going to have to take it to prove himself? Would it be too soon to reveal his true form to the sovereign now? These were the questions going through his head as he held his hands together charging his next technique as the Sovereign appeared above his final destination in the air. Using his mastery of Air Dash and closing his right wing, he spun in the air to meet the Sovereign's Ikotsu with his force shield having the attack clash with the swirling reiatsu spreading a shield around him with the strength similar to that of Danku.
Caelum's fist slammed into Cain's shield and again the man pleased Him with his speed and quick recovery as well as reflexes and thinking. The collision of Caelum's fist into the Fortce Shield sent the man, largely unharmed from the strike, hurtling down into the ground with a good deal of force. But at least he'd avoided the punch and hadn't taken damage from it. He got off quite well.Good, good....Caelum thought to Himself with something that could have actually been considered a smile as He righted and looked down at where Cain had impacted upon the ground."You've done well, Kurogane. You may rest."Whether or not Cain acknowledged it, Caelum was generally meticulous about His choice of words and therefore invited him to continue fighting if he so wished but also permitted him reprieve and the opportunity to spectate. Looking back at Castaeva and Ariana His eyes began to glow with His power. With glowing eyes He studied them both, and more than just skin deep, as He waited for at least one of them to move.

Seeing the two Cain, and Caelum go into a battle. It was pretty interesting, though sparked more questions. However, things seemed to be nearing an end as the collision of Caelum's fist struck the shield. He definitely put forth the demonstration of his strength in an somewhat amusing manner. Even though Amon himself saw such acts irrelevant, he did take a bit of entertainment in from all of this. Seeing the accomplishment of Cain, Amon only raised an eyebrow from underneath his white hood and stepped forth to be closer to the battle zone. Watching the glowing orbs, that was Caelum's eyes stare forth at Castaeva, and Ariana; he only snuffed and adjusted his legs to a form of stance. It was a comfort stance, in which he was on guard and yet, relaxed. A bit unknown to the eyes of those around him, and his power as well. For it all was compacted and blanketing him, in an aura of wisp like essence under his robes.

Ariana Bianchi⁂El Dragonessa⁂Quarta
Ariana had opted to stay out of the two males fighting. She knew better then to sometimes meddle into such a fight, they could get intense. Besides it gave her time to observe. Sitting on reiatsu in the air an amused smirk tainted her lips at the scene before her. Her eyes every so often falling on the unknown figure (Amon) below. No one seemed to know who he was, so she figured he was just an arrancar who had been attracted to the sudden powers emerging in the area. Kurogane soon was out of it. It was now her and Caesteva's turn. "Shall we do this one together Caesteva?" If the former soveriegn wished to get a piece of Caelum without help Ariana would be fine with it. It was probably for the best Caelum took them on on by one. "Or shall it be my turn.... or~" Summersaulting in the air she appeared close to Amon. "Perhaps we should let him play as well. Hmm?" Tilting her head her childlike expression gazed at Caelum. "Fine with that?" Amon's aura made her curious.
Ariana had blasted two balas toward the Dark King. But the Dark king had his own methods of slithering out, leaving Castaeva in the way to catch the two balas. Which wasn't a winters dagger to worry about given that she raised her own arm to blast two balas of similiar hemispheres of her own to distort the attack before offsetting them all together.
Meanwhile, midpoint away from the explosions occurring from where they were stopped, Castaeva took the time to observe Cain's release. Her liquid gold eyes reflecting off the vivid imagery of his power and animosity to be the first to send the homely king dragging his feet across the ground. However as it seemed, the Dark King had his own method of retaliation. Or self-reinforcement. At this moment in time, she stood to observe things once more. Calculating. Because Cain himself wouldn't fall so easily. But he would not take the Lord Sovereign out alone for a certainty.
Seeing that Caelum, may his unworthy majesty burn, was apparently fighting the different Espada at different intervals. The Primera, was able to harm Caelum. The King, in all of his infinite powers, was still mortal. He wasn't the "Deus" that he claimed to be. He was not a God. Of course, Kuchiro saw the Throne as having belonged to him. As though, it was his destiny. He appeared next to Amon, who was much like Kuchiro in the way of his ability to calculate and study. This trait was something Kuchiro truly admired, the ability to come to deeply rationalize situations. Standing directly to the right of Amon, arms crossed, Kuchiro whispered, "Looks like the Sovereign, his royal majesty, is testing our skills. I recommend you not reveal too much. Especially since the sky filled with red is neigh." Kuchiro's distrust of Caelum was something that he did not publicly display, but in statements like that, he hinted that a time of great change was coming. Naturally, if the Sovereign was going to test Kuchiro, he would not reveal anything other than basic strengths. He couldn't afford to let the Sovereign know all of his powers, especially for the day when he was to unleash it all against him.
His eyes panned the scene, focusing on Ariana and Castaeva. The Cero and Quarta. He was interested in seeing how they would react in response to the Sovereign. Of course, he figured they were not like Amon and Kuchiro, they were rash, they were women. Kuchiro was sexist to a degree. He didn't believe a woman deserved a position of power. They were too empathetic, too bred to be at home watching children. Of course, he could not question the power of Castaeva, the Cero. She deserved her position, unquestionably. But, Ariana would have to prove her worth, her usefulness. Of course, Kuchiro was measuring who he would attempt to manipulate into serving his agenda. He wanted to see who he could turn against the Sovereign and eventually completely turn against him in battle.

...But, the only sovereignty you will have is watching your kingdom burn."
Slow. He expected, more like wanted something to happen. Something quick. It might have been wisest, rather than to stop and give Him time. Standing upon the very air, Caelum watched the two Arrancar before Him, turned His eyes on Ariana when she moved to see her on near Amon. There was not a single moment in which Caelum had allowed Amon to leave His mind in some form or fashion. After all, this little spectacle was a show for their spectator. With her question posed itself to Him, His lips lightly quirked. A smile."If he so wishes."It was shortly after that Caelum saw Kuchiro arrive as well. His glowing eyes bored into the youth, picking him apart as His eyes tended to do, and as He did the Dunes seemed to darken...then they turned away, back to gaze at Castaeva, and the darkness seemed to lighten. At least slightly. Looking at Castaeva, He seemed to relax."Hoi. ("Come on")"

Kurogane's protective shield clashed with the sands below as he looked skywards towards the Sovereign of which was congratulating him on a job well done. He nodded as he shredded his form and returned to his normal self. He sonido'd over to where Amon and Kuchiro sat. "Your up." He said towards Kuchiro before he sonido'd away once more back towards his lair. A few minutes after he was gone a garganta opened above them all. It was a small one about as big as a bird for which he would be watching via his Broadcasting room as always.
