Security was at the forefront of Asahi's mind. If the situation truly called for his intervention involving Nyuraku and Zhou, he'd provide it. He didn't feel he needed to yet. There was a clear escalation of the situation involving the student cluster but the panic that spread throughout the school was something he had to narrow. It was unclear exactly what the extent of the damage caused by the gas was outside of the obvious. How much further could the situation worsen? And would there come a point in which this experiment would be shut down by the Twelfth Shinigami. Asahi would be lying to himself if he did not find some fascination in what was occurring but the subjects used for this trial were of his responsibility.
After the erection of his blockades to this specific corridor, his eyes fell to the ground. His lips curved into an absolutely wicked grin. Where he did not want anyone to die in this situation, which could be on the table for some students, the chaos that was transpiring was not something that struck fear into the short instructor. There was no unease, no lack of confidence, not even a real consideration of himself. What ultimately came to the surface was the sensation of joy. This whole situation was something that was unique and refreshing. A new challenge to conquer and more importantly... a new game to be played.
The Clown could feel every Soul shuffling about as they either were overcome by the sheer panic from what was transpiring, or obediently followed the procedures requested by the Academy's staff. There were the two scientists, Zhou, the fleshy monster, and the nearing aid from the Fourth. His hands trembled for a moment as he contained an outburst that'd be completely unbecoming in such a situation. Instead, he drew the weapon that was strapped to his back and swung it out to his side. The sunlight that flowed into the hallway erupting from the pristine blade. The male parted his lips for but two words. Not for one second losing the unhinged expression that graced his visage.
"Tomogui. Minaoshi."
And with that utterance, he brought forth the power of his beloved Zanpakuto. Something that went without use in his previous bout with his superior officer. The weapon hummed as it's figure warped into that of a steel gauntlet with various orifices scattered across it's shiny figure. A swarm of metallic hornets burst out from the newly forged armament and surrounded the Clown with a twinkling orbit. He reached within his garments and withdrew a set of small round capsules and proceeded to hold them out before him. The flying insects pierced them and drained the substance that filled the inside of these orbs. Once they had their fill they rushed forward and breached the barrier nearest to their master as it flickered for all but a moment.
These tiny friends of Asahi pathed their way throughout the hallways of the school, striking the students that were subject reluctant to falling into order. Their stingers dug into the trainees' bodies and injected their retained chemical within them. Immediately they'd feel the effects of the specific drug that overtook them. At first feeling a numbing and calming sensation before being overtaken by a state of overwhelming comfort and elation. They no longer would be struck with the heavy weight of the suffocating terror that they formerly felt. Instead they could not have a care and entered a state that was significantly more passive, allowing for instruction to trump all else. Each spent hornet faded from existence after their respective injections.
Such a simple task did not require further attention from the Third's Fifth Seat, instead he just hummed to himself as he could feel an air of calm taking over the school. The only real remnant of discourse remained with the irritated chimera. Asahi remained still for a moment before heading towards the direction of his ally to potentially bring aid. Though his movements would come to an end as a certain string of words dug into his ears.
”Devour and regurgitate, Namekujira!!”
A phrase that prompted the release of the female scientist's Shikai. She used the activated power to dispose of a portion of the pair's experiment after acknowledging whatever data she desired from it. Asahi did not act for that exact moment, finding it important that such an object was handled, but when he noted her attempt to leave the lockdown he put in place, he could not allow it. Whether the female would retaliate or not was unknown but at the very least he did not want someone from ground zero wandering the halls. Let alone, if corrective action needed to be done in the near future, he couldn't allow for one of the party in question to run freely. He may not be a detaining officer of the Second or an enforcer of the Sixth, but he would take this situation as serious as they may.
Asahi raised a hand towards the scientist, moving his fingers through the air to draw a sigil of sorts. A crimson aura overtakes the Clown body following the swiping of his protruding digits along the space before him.
"Bakudō #9. Geki"
A command was uttered into the ether, bringing about that same light to consume Kai's figure. Halting the movement of her sling and overtaking the entirety of her body in an instant. The Fifth Seat maintained his now still gesture and continued to speak his will outward.
"Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini."
His corresponding phrase was coupled with him beginning to walk a bit closer to the target of his spell. The inclusion of these additional words further tightening the bind that had embraced the Twelfth Officer's body. But it didn't end there.
"Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat."
He concluded the spells enhanced with one last locution. The Clown had performed his spell's incantation in post, desiring to completely shut down the woman's movement with haste. Then he tightened the scarlet shackles to complete the Demon Art. Asahi made no effort to display any hostility, though he was prepared for anything Kai had decided to do in response to his impeding magic. He relaxed the arm that was equipped with his released weapon and clutched it lightly with his free hand. Feeling the vibrations from the creatures that still resided within the steel gauntlet. The amount of hornets that it could produce were seemingly endless, evident already by those that brought the students throughout the building into submission, and the cloud that still scurried around the starry-eyed reaper.
"If you'd be so kind. I'd love to have your company for a little while."
The tiny male beamed with a look of sheer excitement during and after his speech.
"I'd love to know exactly what makes up that fancy gas. Certainly something to behold! Or... If you don't wanna talk about it. We could play a little game! I just can't let you leave right now. Sorry!"
A small cluster of armored vespa that did not need to be used upon the students returned but this time outside the mystical wall that Kai had previously tried to destroy. Their numbers were few so they were very hard to see shifting about the air just outside the barrier. If the female broke free from the suppressing aura placed on her and still proceeded to break free from the confines of Asahi's blockade, she'd be met with the drug filled insects that observed from outside the barricade. The ever so tricky and odd nature of the Twelfth clearly was presented in this individual, which also meant she could have anything up her sleeve. Even an immunity to the chemicals within the bugs... but that was not the only tool they provided to the gleaming Asahi.
