There was a total of 39 gillian spaced around the area. How they got in was a mystery, but it didn't matter now, not while they wreaked havoc. In unison, 18 of the gillian all charged and fired ceros, obliterating another section of the district.
One gillian was bearing down upon a young man who was desperately trying to fend it off, protecting a single dwelling in particular which was damaged, but standing. He slashed at the gillian with his zanpakuto, but failed to do significant damage. The gillian responded by roaring, then it began to charge a cero.
