Thread: Bleach: Chapter 348

well if ulquiorra has a secret ability that none of the other espada or even aizen knows about, chances are so do the top three.
i mean look at stark, he's a guy who hates fighting but is still the primera, im betting the other top 3 all have alot of tricks up there sleeves that no one knows about but them.

I can see it already. People saying Ulqui is the strongest just because he has another form. *sigh* Oh well, it seems that finally Ichigo is going down, even though most will think he should've been down three chapters away. Or two.

Tamiel -

Ulquiorra was already dominating masked Ichigo in his 2nd form. Now that he has transformed again, I'd expect him to atleast be above the 3rd ranked Espada or even 2nd.

Grimmjow hasn't come along like I hoped he would, but Ishida going up gives me hope for a 2vs1. Well, honestly the only way I see Ichigo surviving is in a 2vs1 but the idea of Ishida or Grimm joining makes it sound better. Kenpachi vs Ulquiorra's huge demon looking form could look good too, would most likely turn into nothing more than another hack&slash fight with little strategy though.

I laughed hard. That being a houndred of years before the main storyline...
I hate that bastard smirk too. He needs to get his ass kicked by a big man.

Is there any chance of the spoilers being fake?

The power levels are screwed enough as it is. Now everyone is going to think the Top 3 Espadas are super powerful with a hidden 2nd release. Only redeeming thing about this is we might actually get to see the captains get served big time.

I'm pretty sure that's not even Aizen, remember how he said he had an underling pretend to be him?

ulquiorra got 2nd form ? guess that's a cue that kubo finally ready 2 start killing off some captains ? or it's a cue that ichigo gonna get a power up ? but for sure i think its a cue that we'll finally see Shunsui bankai which i've been waiting for ages =D

It's funny how Orihime is arriving just as Ichigo gets pierced in the chest, just like last time when Ulquiorra done that she showed up with grimmjaw so she could heal him, now she can do it again.
I think the espada 1-3 are a battle for the Vizard, but if so that does piss me off a little I mean i'm all for some captains to die but if he makes Kyouraku lose his first fight it's gonna make him look like a piece of shit.

I concur. Either way you look at it some people, good guys, have to die or become "incapacitated" like Rangiku. If the Vizard are on Ichigo and company's side then they outnumber the bad guys (insert larger ratio here):1. Since its possible that the Vizard could hold a grudge against either the Gotei 13 or Aizen there is a possiblity that they could be completely neutral.

I believe there are 13 vaizards, not counting ichigo?

That'd put your ratio at 4.25:1 for the remaining Espada outside of Hueco Mundo :P

But I am betting on ulquiorra's second form to pique kenny's interest now though. I thought maybe it'd be him or kuchiki to bail ichigo out, but if that spoiler is real then it's definitely more likely to be kenny.

Bleach 348: The Lust 2

Continues from the last chapter. Upon seeing Ulquiorra's new form Ichigo is stunt. Now Ulquiorra's lower body is covered with something similar to black fur (use your own judgement when the scan is out), his bare feets have claws similar to the eagle's and his black tail is twice as long as his body.

A scence cuts Ishida and Orihime who are on their way up to where the fight is. Suddenly they both sense such a strong reiatsu. Ishida thinks not only the reiatsu is powerful but also thick and dark as if there's an ocean being placed up there in the sky. He then hurries up trying to get there sooner.

A scene cuts back to Ulquiorra who is telling Ichigo this is a ressureccion segunda etapa which only he out of all the espadas has. And that even Aizen has never seen this form of his. However, instead of getting scare Ichigo is at the fighting pose ready to fight Ulquiorra again. His fearless expression amazes Ulquiorra. But then he notices Ichigo's sword is shaking even if it's just a little bit so he thinks,

"He is not that crazy to be fearless...but that are the eyes of those who's not willing to die. Even right now he thinks he could win."

"Fine. Even if you are all crushed and gone I will make you understand it."

Then he attacked Ichigo causing him to hit the tower. Ulquiorra follows and grabs his face but once Ichigo uses his sword to defend himself, a tail wipes another side of his face. Ichigo calls out his mask but couldn't do much anyway.

"Even with an enemy you fear his powers and know the difference, you still dare to fight him. This is beyond my understanding." Say Ulquiorra then kicks Ichigo again causing him to clash another tower.

"If this is a thing you called a heart. Then a reason you humans are hurt is because of it. Because you humans have the hearts that's why you all will die here."

After a short silence, Ichigo replies, "Who said I fight because I want to win? I fight because I have to win!" Then he tries to stand in a fighting pose. They stare at each other then Ulquiorra says,

"What a fool."

Orihime finally arrived at the top of the dome. She is worried upon unable to sense Ichigo's reiatsu. However, what she see causes her to shock. Ulquiorra's using his tail to hold a limp Ichigo by his neck (he passed out). Ulquiorra notices Orihime so he turns to her and says, "Here you are, woman. Good, now watch the moment the man you place all your hopes in die." With that he points his finger at Ichigo.

"Don't!!!" Screams Orihime but it doesn't stop a cero from causing a big hole in Ichigo's chest.
