"its important, we need a Profile of everyone in the squad for the Gotei 13 records. especially after that fiasco last week with the arrancar. The higher ups want everyone's parameters to come up with strategies and stuff i guess." Giovanni explained "it shouldt take more than five minutes" he looked up into the sky "oh also, while i have you, I ran into another Menos a few days ago while I was running the team exercises with the corps and squad. have you run across any?" Menos were rare, they should be rare anyway, however they can be controlled by stronger hollows, such as Adjuches or even Arracnars, and given that there was a shit ton of arrancar that attacked the world of the living and some that allegedly invaded the seireitei the menos he, gustavo and Ko fought could very well have been a planned distraction to lessen the collective strength of the gotei 13 along with the invasion. That was the angle Gio was looking at it from. Even his mysterious female friend from the north seemed to agree with him.Speaking of his friend another hell butterfly fluttered to him, with a coded message. "1001 paper cranes, 657 auburn branches, . 9 feathers of the three headed beast. " Giovanni knew it was coordinates as well as what to look for a them. nine feathers of the three headed beast meant Sect movement in an unnatural pattern. so the coordinates were likely the place of their place of convergance. It wouldn't be smart of Gio to rush out there blindly, and it wasn't like he could sense that far out. so he reached into his shihakusho and pulled out a piece of chalk and started drawing on the roof. Heart of the south, eye of the north, finger of the west, foot of the east, arrive with the wind and depart with the rain. Bakudo 58, kakushisuijaku.'' he whispered as he directed his kido enhanced search toward the coordinates he was given. "ok look more Menos..." he sighed

Gustavo looked over Giovanni's shoulder, and frowned slightly. "More menos? It seems like they are becoming more, and more of a problem lately, but I didn't think they would show up so soon." He then grabbed his sword, and sighed, "So should we go take care of them?" The idea of fighting another menos, no matter how powerful they were, was tiring for Gustavo to say the least. He wasn't the kind of person to back down, but sheer intimidation was enough for him to at least be extra cautious. In the end though it wasn't whether or not he wanted to fight, it was whether or not he had to fight, and he was ready to leave as soon as Giovanni, or another higher up gave him the order.
