Ichigo barged through them and could see Hikaru's from the entrance. "Hikaru!" He started running forward towards the black haired boy until he got caught up under a large shadow. He looked up and quickly moved away from it. The shadow was Perfect Raizer's damaged body, that had been tossed to the ground by a large cloud of purplish smoke originated form under the robes of a unit that floated above it.

Hikaru fell back onto the floor, landing on his back and staying that way for a bit before sitting up with his hands covering his face. "Why... Why this of all things..."

"Hikaru!" Ichigo called out, standing by his side. "Get up, you asshole!"

"Give me a break, will you? Congrats, you were right. Renji is alive, joy to the world, bless the queen or some shit. Are you happy?"

"He was weak. Why are you caring so much about him? Aren't you a guy who only cares about himself, Ichigo?" Renji asked, standing across them. Indeed, it was him. The same Renji that Hikaru and Ichigo had lost years ago.

"He is a scrub, but you are no one to simply come from the shadows and torment us!" Ichigo exclaimed, taking out his own deck and slamming it onto the pillar. "Renji! This one is not just for me! This one is for me and Hikaru!"

"Fighting for someone other than yourself? I will admit, after what I've seen, that's a rare thing for you

"Fighting for someone other than yourself? I will admit, after what I've seen, that's a rare thing for you. After all, according to a friend of yours, you only care about yourself and no one other than you. What was her name? Aijou Fukai, if I'm correct." Renji taunted, carrying a smirk on his lips.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up! I never gave you the right to bring Aijou into this! You leave her out of it! This is between you, me and Hikaru!" Ichigo yelled in response, his words driven by rage.

"That's new. You lost your composure over someone that isn't you. You keep surprising me in ways I'd never thought would be able to surprise me, specially coming from you."

"Trust me, I'm not fully uncomposed yet." Ichigo looked down on Hikaru and grabbed the hood of his costume, pulling it up and forcing Hikaru out of the ground. He puleld the hood down and slammed his head against Hikaru's.

"YOU SON OF A GUN WHAT THE HELL?!" Hikaru asked, rubbing his forehead with both hands.

"Wow, no wonder things don't go through your skull..." Ichigo mumbled, rubbing his own forehead. "What was I doing? Oh yeah, I was getting rid of that mourning shitty version of you that was on the ground. That isn't the Hikaru that this world needs so get rid of it and return being that idiotic piece of shit that keeps mentioning his well developed italian friend."

"Ichigo... Fuck it. Go fuck his shit up, Goro from FranXX!"

Ichigo gave Hikaru a nod and looked back at Renji. "I came here to decimate some scrubs and win while a bunch of weebs watch, and I'm nowhere near out of weebs watching me winning. I also have a scrub to decimate. Today must be my lucky day."
