The Path of the Great Sovereign 104 Ulquiorra, The Angel of Death

When the bright light caused by the explosion dimed, the sky regained it's calm as the clouds cleared. Ulquiorra stood in the sky in solitude as the majestic lightning pillars faded, A Katana fell from the sky and found itself rooted into the ground below at the tip of the blade.

Ulquiorra looked at the blade in the ground from the sky above and felt connected to it despite the battle moments before. The electric reiatsu of Raijin was still present within it's blue-black blade.

"It would appear that defeating your zanpakuto frees them from whatever effect Muramasa has placed upon them. Captain Kurotsuchi, I will be troubling you to find a method to restore Zanpakuto which have been broken by someone besides their masters."

Without waiting for a response from Captain Kurotsuchi, Ulquiorra spread his wings as His Reiatsu flared once more.

" (Squander)"

The Feathers attached to the Rouge Zanpakuto began to glow in a turquoise light as the Spirit energy was drained from the victim at a much more rapid rate. After 15 seconds the Zanpakuto of lower seated officers started to wither than turn into nothing more than broken swords.

Higher ranked Zanpakuto used their spirit energy to block the path of absorption through from within their bodies by isolating their reiatsu and suppressing it.

The Feathers completed their task then flew back to Ulquiorra increasing his power further.

"As I said before I would advise you all to clear the area. (Lance of Judgement)"

In the Sky a Large lance was formed, this large spirit weapon could be compared in length to the Freedom tower in America. The business end of this spear was pointed directly at the Zanpakuto surrounding Muramasa in the center of the courtyard.

"To all that have survived this Lance will be your end. I shall warn you the destructive power contained within the spear which has absorbed all of your spirit energy is deadly enough to injure even Lord Tatsuo."

The Lance Emitted a terrifying aura that made the enemies fearful while the allies just had a warm surge flow through their bodies.

Down below the Zanpakuto erected all sorts of defensive measures as running away proved to be useless as the area was sealed thanks to Ulquiorras warning. The Lance decended silently toward the group before exploding, actually it's more appropriate to say imploded.as it dragged all things to the epicenter of the blade before vanishing leaving behind severely weakened Zanpakuto.

"You may all be wondering why that Lance didn't break you. Yet that wasn't it's purpose. The does one thing and one thing only, remove the essence of reiatsu. While this effect is not permanent, tell me what can you all do without those abilities you are all so proud of?"

The Zanpakuto below indeed tried to channel their reiatsu only to get no reaction.

"Murcielago has judged that you all do not know what truly being empty actually is. My response to that is rather simple,it's is not having the option to make a decision in regards to your very own livelihood. Not having the ability to express your emotions, to speak, or to move at your own free will. Being empty is to have absolutely nothing yet still forced to exist. There are many ways to interpret that but the main point remains the same no matter it's interpretation. During this time I will ask you all a series of questions, if your answer statifies me you may live a moment longer as you are not my Zanpakuto to discipline to that extent. However if you do not then I will break you, very simple."

Ulquiorra stepped out the sky to arrive on the destroyed field below, yes Field nothing remained of the grand courtyard of the shiba estate.

"3rd Seat Cifer wait a moment, based off the fight between Raijin and yourself the Zanpakuto that are defeated by their masters are indeed freed from whatever has allowed them to rebel. Not only that but you have also shown what would happen if a 3rd party were to defeat someone else's Zanpakuto as they break and become devoid of reiatsu. Therefore I think your job here is done, we should regroup, get the situation under control by informing the other seated officers not present due to missions and other assignments of the situation. Lastly we should figure out a way to free the Head Captain while also figuring out Muramasa's true motive behind this farce.

Captain Ichimaru stepped forward to mediate the situation at first he thought it would be nearly impossible for Ulquiorra to defeat every Zanpakuto however, without their spirit energy the Zanpakuto would not be able to handle the wrath of the Captain-class Soul Reaper.

Ulquiorra saw this as the best chance to solve the issue once and for all however, it was indeed true that there were at least 20 or so Officers outside the seireitei completing missions. First things first was ensuring their safety while recalling them to the Gotei 13, after getting the Gotei 13 back to full strength they can sweep the Zanpakuto rebellion all at once while also removing the Head Captain from his prison which was the real reason Ulquiorra calmed himself.

"It would appear that the Captain's do not yet which to lose their subordinates or their own Zanpakuto just yet. Muramasa get out of my sight before I change my mind and kill you all."
