Vito Rafael

Vito Rafael (ライフ征服者, Bito Rafaera) is an Arrancar, serving as the Cero (0) Espada of the Espada Afilado. His immense power is thanks to an experiment by Nicolao Javier, in order to ensure a fail safe in case Cortez died in battle. He is not the true leader of the Espada, but instead can be described as the Espada Afilado's ultimate weapon.
