[quote=Expllo] After the attack, the Hollow appeared to be hurt, though it obviously wasn't affected. Aokiji thought as he stared into the Hollow's flaming eyes, though the second second it was in front of him. As the Hollow attempted to strike him, Aokiji blocked with his arms, though the Hollow didn't strike and jumped above Kaizo to fire a cero. Kaizo formed a dome with his Spirit Energy, which he thought was to counter the cero. He jumped back so he didn't get caught in the blast radius, blocking his eyes from the dust. When it cleared he saw that Kaizo was ok, but looked around for the Hollow. He wasn't going to wait around for another attack, so he shunpo'ed onto a branch, it gave him a better sense. He gripped his Zanpakuto and glanced at the two by the rock, the Hollow needed to be stalled just a bit longer, though Aokiji wanted to kill the bastard. [/quote] The blast caused the hollow to go flying in the air, the winds causing a small dust cloud. The hollow flipped, landing on the ground between them. It was furious, its eyes flames glowing more intensely. It smashed the ground a few times sending sand flying everywhere. It was unable to understand why they weren't dead yet. It quickly lifted its head, looking in the direction of Aokiji. It fired off a barrage of flame balls at him, each one moving with great speeds. It then turned to Kaizo and ran at him, a dust cloud forming due to its speed. It sonidoed in front of him and attempting to pierce his heart with its finger tips.
