The strength of Arrancars' Hierro depends on their spiritual power; [[Nnoitra Jiruga]] claimed to have the strongest Hierro. But it is unknown if Nnoitra's claims are true, given the fact that he's outranked by four [[Espada]] of higher power, and [[Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck|a former Espada]] was able to injure him without reciprocation. While Hierro can block even released [[Zanpakutō]], [[Kenpachi Zaraki]] discovered that he could cut Nnoitra's by adapting to the latter's [[Reiatsu]].

The technique is exclusive to Arrancar, and it has yet to be seen if the [[Vizard]] are capable of using Hierro during their Hollowfication. Shinigami have been shown using reiatsu to block or lessen the blows of Zanpakutō, such as when [[Ichigo Kurosaki]] used his reiatsu to momentarily stun [[Shūsuke Amagai]] during their battle. Also, when Ichigo and Kenpachi Zaraki first fought, Ichigo failed to injure Kenpachi even after he offered Ichigo an opportunity to cut him. However, this ability cannot be done to the same extent as this Arrancar technique.

Hierro (鋼皮 (イエロ), Iero; Spanish for "Iron", Japanese for "Steel Skin") is a defensive Arrancar technique.

Description

The user's Reiryoku condenses, creating a steel-hard skin strong enough to block a Zanpakutō. This allows users to confront some of the sword-wielding Shinigami barehanded.[1] While this technique is exhibited by all Arrancar to some degree, the strength of an individual's Hierro is entirely proportional to the potency of their Reiryoku, with Nnoitra Gilga possessing the self-proclaimed strongest Hierro out of all generations of the Espada.[2] However, it is unknown if such claims were true, given that Nnoitra was outranked by five Espada of higher power and a former third Espada injured him without complication.[3] Although Hierro can defend against the attacks of a released Zanpakutō, 11th Division Captain Kenpachi Zaraki discovered he could cut Nnoitra's body in spite of it by adapting to the latter's Reiatsu.[4]

Trivia

  • In the English dub of the Bleach anime, Hierro was mistakenly identified as Cero when Ulquiorra Cifer spoke about Ichigo being able to effortlessly cut off Yammy Llargo's arm.[5]
