Komamura could only stare in utter shock as Adaro stopped Tengen’s shikai with her own sword. It seemed almost ridiculous, the scene resembling an ant successfully halting a foot set upon crushing it. But there she was, doing just that and then sidestepping his blade so that it harmlessly crashed to the ground. (
It was like seeing Barbie on steroids. )

Komamura realized that as she attacked Kyouraku-taichou in a blur before jumping over him to dodge both Hitsugaya-taichou and Abarai-fukutaichou’s attacks. He watched in amazement as she paused for an instant, noting the lack of any serious wounds on her as she took a moment to mock them.
‘There are three Captains and a Vice Captain present, yet all we could do was this to her?’ he thought in dismay. They weren’t giving her their best moves yet, but the thought was still chilling. Adaro seemed to be the epitome of a monster: ruthless, powerful, and unstoppable.
‘I need to slow her down somehow.’
His mind ran through dozens of spells before settling upon one. As she raced towards Abarai-fukutaichou, Komamura began to chant quickly but correctly.
“Path of light, trail of dark, entwine elements of old. Ancient forces of Earth divine, hear my call. Root my enemy with your Natural Ties. Bakudou #41: Gaia’s Vines!”

Three captains and a vice captain against her. Hitsugaya set his jaw firmly. They would hurt her- they had to.
If they didn't, he wasn't sure they stood a chance at all against her.
He hung back for the moment, not wanting to interfere with Renji's attack. Instead, he sent the ice circling around behind Adaro, sending it higher and higher. If they could hem her in, it would hopefully be easier to land a hit.

That had been a captain-level kidou that the witch was now hacking away like weeds. She was fast. Extremely so. They needed to be faster.
It was no longer a matter of defeating her as their attacks had been for that intent. They all needed something much more intense than that behind their attacks. They needed that death intent.
Furrowing his brow as he came to quickly realize that had it not been for Komamura's kidou he would now be dead, Renji concentrated on his reiatsu and felt it flow into him rapidly and powerfully. The heat and rage bubbled beneath his skin as he touched down, and cried, "Bankai! Hihiou Zabimaru!"
The surrounding area exploded in ruptured foliage, dirt and rubble as the monstrous figure of Zabimaru took shape and surrounded the cloaked figure Renji, both read to defend its master and destroy its enemy.
