As they talked, another steel doll Dalk arrived.
"Work's here!" Ma Kun shouted.
"Alright, I see it!"
Cai Xu responded, also drawing his Zanpakuto.
It was a Zanpakuto that could coordinate well with teammates.
Facing the steel doll, Cai Xu roared the release command: "Little Black Fan, show your chicken feet!"
Under his Zanpakuto's release, the steel doll actually sprouted chicken feet!
"Bashi!" Ma Kun lifted the sledgehammer and smashed the chicken feet!
Smack-
The hammer accurately hit the little chicken feet.
With the chicken feet being hit, the steel doll Dalk froze in place as if anesthetized.
But both Ma Kun and Cai Xu knew it was because of the excessive pain from having its chicken feet smashed.
No one could act normally after their chicken feet were smashed!
Lifting the hammer, Ma Kun continued his eighty-eighty operation. Soon, this Dalk was also declared dead.
Ma Kun and Cai Xu were very happy.
But suddenly, the joy on their brows vanished!
Looking ahead with difficulty, Ma Kun cursed, "Why so many all of a sudden!"
Ahead of the two was a row of colorful Dolls!
Looking at the row of Dalk smashed by Ma Kun earlier, the numerous Dolls charged forward!
"Smash them, Tettomaru!!"
"Little Black Fan, show your chicken feet!"
The perfectly coordinated duo teamed up again.
But this time, hitting the numerous chicken feet wasn't so easy!
Or rather, hitting them was useless!
Under Cai Xu's ability, a water-type Doll, Guhl, sprouted chicken feet.
Ma Kun smashed the chicken feet with a hammer. The newly sprouted chicken feet shattered into water, then quickly reformed!
The chicken feet, made of the same material as Guhl itself, were immune to physical attacks!
Seeing this, a panicked Ma Kun smashed Guhl's main body with his Tettomaru.
The Tettomaru hit Guhl, but under the great force, Guhl also burst apart!
Water splashed around the two.
But before they could say anything, the scattered water gathered again!
"Oi, what are you doing?!" Wailing, Cai Xu was enveloped within the gathering Guhl.
Beside him, Ma Kun suffered the same fate.
Drowned and at a loss, the two couldn't breathe. They struggled, finally succumbing to lack of oxygen in the water, unable to hold their breath, their breath dispersing as they made gurgling, choking sounds.
Soon, Ma Kun and Cai Xu were declared dead by suffocation!
Faced with the Doll army's complementary and varied abilities, similar scenes occurred in multiple places!
Even in West Rukongai's 39th District, under the fire doll Goethe's ability, the Rukongai caught fire!
"Ah!!!"
"Run!!!"
"Mommy!"
"Shinigami, where are the Shinigami?" Numerous Rukongai residents fled in panic.
As for the Shinigami supposed to be patrolling here?
Whoosh!
A sharp arm-blade was pulled from a Shinigami's chest, bringing out a gush of blood!
The steel doll Dalk looked to the side.
There, another 10th Division Shinigami was being swallowed by a whale doll!
Watching this scene, Jing Bing and Xin Na, hidden nearby, trembled.
Having failed to escape earlier, the two could only hide.
To force the hidden two out, the fire doll Goethe started setting fires.
Fortunately, the flames quickly attracted patrolling Shinigami from the 10th Division.
But who would have thought the patrolling Shinigami would also be quickly eliminated by the Dolls?
The Dolls' strength far exceeded the two's expectations!
"What do we do, Xin Na? The fire is coming! Your Zanpakuto only erases presence, not existence!" Jing Bing said to Xin Na.
"Then hurry up and use your Zanpakuto's ability to get us out of here!"
Equally tense, biting her teeth, watching the Shinigami being slaughtered ahead, Xin Na could no longer maintain her aloofness.
"I want to..." Jing Bing was very distressed. "The problem is, I haven't heard my Zanpakuto's name yet, so I can't release it!"
"In that case, we have to fight!"
Xin Na raised her palm towards the Dolls ahead. "Jing Bing, together. Chant a high-numbered Hado. Success or failure depends on this!"
"Alright!" Jing Bing also nodded firmly.
"Seeping crest of turbidity..."
The two chanted with difficulty.
But Xin Na, channeling all her Reiryoku to chant Hado #90: Kurohitsugi, could no longer maintain her Zanpakuto's release.
Seeing the two reappear, the Dolls surrounded them!
But at this moment, the two's chant for Kurohitsugi had only reached: "Eternally self-destructing doll of mud. Unite. Repulse!"
The final line, 'Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness', couldn't be spoken! They no longer had time to speak it!
The command for the enemy to know their own powerlessness now seemed directed at themselves!
In a flash, Jing Bing gave Xin Na a look.
'What about it? Force incantationless casting?'
Understanding her best friend's meaning, Xin Na hesitated.
But before she could decide, the extremely lucky two received reinforcements.
"Getsuga Tensho!"
A blue crescent moon arrived from the other end of the street, instantly reaching the two!
Boom boom boom boom-
Whether it was the steel doll Dalk, the water doll Guhl, the fire doll Goethe, or even the giant snake's swarm, all were blown apart by this full-power Getsuga Tensho!
Scattered steel fragments, water droplets, sparks, and soil from the giant snake rained down on the two.
Instantly, the two goddesses, considered the most beautiful geniuses of Shin'o Academy, became utterly disheveled.
But at this moment, the two had no time to care about their appearance.
"Saved!" Exchanging a surprised look, Xin Na and Jing Bing, having narrowly escaped death, hugged each other in joy.
Simultaneously-
Thud!
Another dull sound and vibration came from beneath their feet!
Shaken by the vibration, Jing Bing and Xin Na fell into a cute duck-sit.
They looked down. It was actually the whale doll Baura, which had tried to ambush them, appearing only to be destroyed by Ichigo!
They had encountered this whale earlier.
It could be said to be the most troublesome among the abilities of steel, water, and fire, because its ability was spatial.
The whale burrowed into the ground, seemingly earth-gliding, but actually hiding in another space.
Yet facing a whale hidden in another space,
Ichigo could still destroy it with one strike. Such strength was simply unimaginable to the two!
Xin Na and Jing Bing were dumbfounded!
Watching this, the audience in Ichigo's live stream, having stayed long, felt a sense of shared glory.
"Hahaha, so what if they're Shin'o Academy's two goddesses? Aren't they scared silly by Ichigo?"
"Probably studying to improve themselves, they've never seen any real powerhouses! Ichigo really opened their eyes today."
"Yeah, and I hope Ichigo pushes on, best to also subdue this Xin Na!"
"Although Xin Na and Jing Bing have similar strength, we all know it's because Xin Na's Zanpakuto doesn't boost strength much."
"But we all know how central Bankai is in the world of Shinigami."
"Looking at it this way, Xin Na's talent isn't lower than Jing Bing's! Don't let this Xiguo genius go back!"
Due to Ichigo's previous direct killings, the real-world situation on Earth was already precarious. No one wanted the Xiguo people across the ocean to fare well.
Meanwhile, Ichigo looked at the two girls ahead and asked curiously:
"You two, are Shin'o Academy students? How did you get here?"
