The strange and unexpected sensation of hunger gripping his stomach surprised him. Just what the hell was this? Why was this happening and was it a by-product of the Arrancar reiatsu? Izanagi paused for a moment, his eyes squinted as they glowed, revealing a malicious intent.
The man made sure to hold firm, forcing himself to stave off the hunger and ignore his current instincts. Said instincts pushed and pulled against him to feed. He resisted, since what would he feed on? He was about to engage in cannibalism. That was yet another thing for Jushiro to report back once all this mess was over and done with. He pondered about the 12th division and how useful they may yet find this information. There he was in the presence of the purple haired warrior, pondering their next move. Unbeknownst to Jushiro, the curtain was beginning to close on this encounter. Even in the heat of battle he thought about ways to serve the Gotei.
"High speed regeneration? Interesting". Jushiro had been gathering intelligence on his opponent from the get go. His movements, the Cero which blasted him earlier and now the ability to regenerate was revealed. The revelation was appreciated by the third seat and at the same time concerning. Estarossa turned out to be quite the opponent indeed. Jushiro had a certain level of appreciation for it, the trip to Naruki city was worth it. However dangerous things turned out to be, he was glad for the learning experience. There was much to report now. The masked one could feel the effects of the man's reiatsu subsiding, the hunger eased and was far more bearable. His stomach released a low growl but that wasn't what was bothering the third seat. The sudden pause and casual nature of the Arrancar was baffling.
Kazuki remained on edge throughout, Jushiro on the other had recognized what was happening. There was a time and place for everything. And while he had his guard up, he was intrigued by what Estarossa had to say. And without fail he spouted something which caught the man off guard. He was annoyed by the Arrancar's demeanour but now wasn't the time to press the issue. To them it was a serious battle but to Estarossa, this appeared to be nothing but a sparring match. Jushiro was about to take things a bit further but was glad he didn't need to.
The masked one paid close attention to the words of the Arrancar. A much welcomed compliment despite never really showing too much. The fact that they both could be dead wasn't something to be ashamed of. Jushiro hated feeling week, but without knowing it, Estarossa made himself a source of motivation. The current third seat could not allow himself to remain in his current condition. He needed to become stronger, far stronger than he'd ever been. The words of the Arrancar sounded like a warning, Jushiro knows nothing about Hueco Mundo. But to hear that things are not settled was a little unsettling. The crazy notion of them working together caused him to chuckle. "I'm convinced he's crazy, now I understand what Sayuri and Kuwashii chan was talking about". Now wasn't the time to interrupt or find offense in the Arrancar's words. All of this was valuable information in the eyes of the masked one. Before long, Estarossa left the scene the same way he came. All that was left now was the aftermath.
As Kazuki appeared next to him in what seemed to be a frantic manner. Izanagi maintained his position while looking over at his fellow squad member. "I'm doing just fine. Once everything is dealt with here then return to the barracks. I will now return to the soul society and report on what has happened". Kazuki did the right thing by wanting to reduce the number of casualties that they had to deal with. There will be a few funerals for the unfortunate, and that was on the shoulders of the third seat. If he didn't venture into Naruki city, would Estarossa had turn up. And if he didn't, then could the situation have turned out even worse? No point in dwelling on any of it. Before long, Jushiro deactivated his Shikai before opening another Senkaimon. He stepped inside bloodied and bruised but thankful all the same. He must now find a way to be better. Kazuki did well, Sayuri will have to chime in and help him clean up the mess. Back to the soul society he went and to the Seireitei.
