WOR ONE V ONE

year 18, month 9

Welcome one and all to another edition of your favourite blog series, the WoR One v One! In this series, for those that may not know or have forgotten, we take the powers of a user in the Powers Club and put them up against someone in the Bleach world! In our last episode, we had the powers of possession fighting against one another with Giselle Gewelle using her Zombie against Clan Commander Jurgen Fahlrein's Stehlen. Quincy versus Quincy and, it was easy to see, that our 3rd Division Captain absolutely smacked the seven hells out of Giselle with his possible Vollständig! What a match indeed, but now we have a rather interesting one for you all!

I will be honest, it was tough finding a match here. You see, the way I mke my picks is I simply spin a wheel and see which clan (or origin for the Witches) gets picked, then I choose a worthy opponent based on powers themes. Though it's tough to find a good pick when the theme is simply war. BUT, I have done my best and I think this will be quite a match, as we analyse a fantasy fight between Sternritter X, Lille Barro against 11th Division Lieutenant, Gin Okumura!
 

Lille Barro - The X-Axis / Jilliel

As always, we begin with the powers of our Bleach character, Lille Barro! The ultimate sharpshooter, Barro's power is known as The X-Axis. With this power, Lille uses a giant gun that, instead of firing bullets, creates perfectly round holes in any target he aims at and anything in the path to the target. Every shot reaches the target instantly, no matter the distance or obstacles, making him the ultimate sniper. With his X Axis comes the ability of Intangibility, where he applies his piercing power to himself and makes it so that his body pierces through enemy attacks. This makes it impossible for him to be hit with any weapon as it will simply just pass through him without any harm done to himself.

Another unique feature of the X Axis lies in his weapon, Diagramm. When the barrel is sliced off or somehow removed, Lille can still fire the weapon and even reform the lost parts, though it reforms shorter and no longer has the plus-shaped muzzle. Very interesting stuff indeed, but now, we analyse his overly complicated Vollständig, Jiliel. Lille is able to partially manifest his Vollständig to appear still human with only one pair of wings. However, at full manifestation, it changes his appearance completely. With Jilliel, Barro can fire multiple X-Axis shots rom the 24 holes on his wings. As well as this, his intangibility is enhanced, making him always intangible and impossible to strike. Lille also gains the ability to Teleport in Vollständig as well as Regenerate any part of himself. Now, unlike most Vollständig, Lille can actually enter a second form with Jilliel.

This second form has him fully transform even further into a big bird like thing with an owls head, but still retaining human looking arms and also gaining a more centaur-like appearance. In this final form, Lille can use Light Generation and project a golden light from his body and channel it into attacks that use the same piercing power as the X Axis. With this ability comes a sub-ability, Sabaki no Kōmyō where Lille fires a wave of light that can decimate everything in its path.

Following this theme is Lille's most powerful ability Trompete. Here, he gathers a huge amount of reishi from the surroundings and condenses them into a giant trumpet above him. Once he blows it, he creates an enormous blast that completely erases anything it hits.

Gin Okumura - Arsenal / Battalion

After such a deadly power, could Gin stand up to it? We shall see with his Fullbring simply named Arsenal. This fullbring gives Gin the unique and possibly quite scary power to create any kind of weapon known. Be it blades, guns, hammers, you name it! This Fullbring comes with three main abilities; First is Airstrike in which he summons a bazooka (you heard me), and fires multiple missiles into his target. Taking scorched earth to a new level, he'll fire ten shots and rain hell down quite literally.

His second ability is Shield Wall which creates... well, a shield wall. So not only can he create single weapons, but multiple ones, but this ability really requires a lot of concentration for him. And the final ability which I really need to see him use, is Hammertime. Name speaks for itself here, Gin creates two huge warhammers and lays waste to any that dare get in his way. He may be small, but his strength is clearly immense!

Of course, with a Vollständig, Gin needs a counter and he sure as hell has one! You see, dear readers, our 11th Division Lieutenant is a one of a kind Fullbringer with the unique power known as Fullbring Absorption, the ability to copy the powers of other species, which he summarises in a power called Battalion. Gin's Arsenal evolves when he draws blood from a certain species and creates his own unique ability that is a copy of their powers. We can safely assume he'd probably do a Quincy steal for this battle, but just for fun, let's look at all of his other steals as well! So, let's start with his Quincy absorption ability, Battalion Juliet, a fitting name to counter Jilliel. This ability creates a green energy fuelled rail cannon. This sniper cannon can fire arrows at Mach speeds (very fast) and annihilate anything in its path to vaporisation. Very fitting against the X Axis, I'd say! Another of his steals is Battalion Alpha, Gin's "bankai". With Shinigami power, Gin creates a big keyring of his favourite machetes and is able to use them to defend himself and also telepathically use them to attack. His Arrancar steal is named Battalion Whiskey and is a cool one! In this, his Fullbring becomes more hollow-like and Gin's arms turn into black and green hollow looking arms with green glowing claws made of plasma. This also allows him to fire a green cero from his claws.

Now, we once saw him use his absorption on DHC Miho (pre-Vizard), but what if he did it again now? Well, he'd have Battalion Echo. This ability gives him his own Vizard mask and he makes cero napalm bombs. I will repeat that. Cero napalm bombs. Not only do they explode with cero but also keep burning afterwards. Turns out, he's got one for Witches as well. The tactical Battalion Charlie has him create dual submachine guns but also gives him the overtly powerful ability to manipulate probability, pulling off trick shots like you wouldn't believe. Basically, he never misses. Further down the line is another that we may one day see, Battalion Oscar. This power that he takes from Oni, which he nicknames "Devil's Gambit". This transforms him into a sort of half demon and allows him to create a small and controlled battleground where if the blood of his enemy falls on the ground, it goes into him and fuels or heals him.

And finally, his Fullbring steal, Battalion Zulu. This one is scary. When he absorbs from another Fullbringer, Gin is able to amplify his Arsenal and his weapon manifestation elevates into full blown war manifestation. Gin creates a wide scale battlefield that summons soldiers of all kinds that battle each other. The side effect? They will fight anyone caught in the war and they fight to kill.

Final Battle - Arsenal vs The X Axis

So now we have reached the end! Who would win in this final battle? Well, in the case of Arsenal versus The X-Axis, we could believe that perhaps the X-Axis would take victory here. Dodging the X Axis is truly near-impossible and of the abilities that Gin possesses, it does seem unlikely that he would be able to avoid getting shot. But then, what about Jilliel versus Battalion?

Here I believe it depends largely on which ability Gin uses that decides the victory. Assuming Lille Barro uses the full power of Jilliel in his final form, there are three avenues in which he could win. The first is his Arrancar absorption. If we assume that his arms and claws have indeed become more hollow-like, then perhaps he may also carry the toxicity of hollows as well, allowing him to gain the advantage over Lille with a few well aimed strikes.

The second is the Vizard absorption. Using these bombs, if they managed to hit, could falter Lille's regeneration if they continue to burn after exploding. Therefore, leaving him open to more damage. The third possible route would be the Witch absorption. This depends entirely on whether or not Gin can manipulate probability in general or just pertaining to himself. If he can manipulate probability on others, it is possible that he could actually make the X Axis miss, and therefore even be able to manipulate the blast of Trompete. If these couldn't work, then the match would probably go to Lille Barro. Who knows, let us know what you dear readers think of this battle!
