Nishiki smiled while continuing her mission before noticing Sui's cut on her now-exposed back. Jumping back, Nishiki was just about to say something when she hurriedly faced the other direction, where the Arrancar landed. Gritting her teeth, she whipped body around, hand on hilt, about to unsheathe her Zanpakuto when her Captain appeared, saving the three of them by cutting the Cero. Seeing Shiro immediately brightened Nishiki's expression since she loved watching her Captain in action. He then turned to her. What Shiro said gave Nishiki a decision to make... but there was only one solution. Smirking back at her Captain, she sent him a wink before he jumped down after the Arrancar. She smiled at them before following Shiro's lead.... She couldn't abandon her Captain and Squad mates, not after everything they've been through.... Nishiki made sure to stick with Shiro, finding his invitation to fight with him an exciting opportunity that she just couldn't pass up. She stuck to hand-to-hand combat as she batted away the swarm that tried to closing in on Shiro, however she did want to join in on fighting the Arrancar, but she didn't want to get in his way.

Shiro slashed down at the arrancar who unsheathed his Zanpakuto and blocked Shiro's attack, Utsu then booted Shiro in the stomach with it doing little effect as Shiro gripped onto his leg with his left hand then lifted him off the ground causing Utsu to fall back as Shiro brought his Zanpakuto down on him causing a great amount of dust to fly up, however once the dust cleared it was seen that the arrancar managed to block the attack, Utsu then twisted and pushed Shiro's Shikai away as he slammed his left foot into Shiro's right side causing Shiro to slide away just enough to allow Utsu to get to his feet and charge up a cero, that was ready to fire at Shiro
