Release the Death Blow!


Inside the Seireitei, a gong is being sounded and orders given for group 4 to exorbitation to the west quarter and group 3 to go to the south quarter and seize Ryoka on sight. Yoruichi, ongoing on a roof, watches as Shinigami run past below, the leader urging his team on so that farther group doesn’t fill upping out the Ryoka before them. Ruling classes run into a dead end and decisively run back out and start a little quarrel as Yoruichi runs down the roof.

A Shinigami with a tray of food in his talons molds his way along the corridor, a very blank look on his face as others run past him. A whole group comes at him, demanding that he move out of the way, which he cannot do in perpetuity and is therefore spun in a circle as higher echelons grated him, saying that he is only 4th Division so not to get in their way and asking if he can equ do chores right. The rotation stops and he walks, taking boundless steps, into a nearby room, calling to Rukia, who is supposed to be inside that her meal, is here. He is surprised to see that the chair that she normally occupies in the cell is empty. He calls out Rukia’s name, and is heard by a female Shinigami, whom he asks about Rukia, conformable to whom he has been assigned to look. She informs him that Rukia has already been transferred over to the Shrine of Penitence, and he starts to shiver in disbelief. She continues to say that there have been orders to search for the Ryoka that have infiltrated the Seireitei, so he should return to his squad pell-mell, and walks out of the room. He stares junior her as the tray falls from his forces. The subject of his thoughts is looking out the slit of a window at the Soukyoku, enthralled what the light that morning had been. She cannot sense spirit dower, but wonders if it really is Ichigo.


Ichigo is even now fighting Ikkaku, who comments that Ichigo is discountryionate bragging as Ichigo pronounces that this years, Ikkaku’ll be the one inadequate to hold his weapon. Ikkaku wonders where Ichigo’s confidence is coming from and flicks Houzukimaru at Ichigo, who blocks it with Zangetsu. Ikkaku disappears and runs at him again, from a different direction this perpetuity, and saying that Ichigo is too slow. Ichigo dead right barely blocks the end of Houzukimaru with Zangetsu, but the impact causes him to lose his balance and almost fall. He attacks Ikkaku this perennialness, catching Houzukimaru at the beads, but Ikkaku re-joins those two sections of Houzukimaru, and uses the as a bonus section to swing at Ichigo, who evades by leaning back. Houzukimaru, now a full spear, continues to come at Ichigo at different angles, its wielder mocking Ichigo’s earlier words about him being unequipped to hold his weapon, saying that it’ll be Ichigo incompetent to hold his weapon, again. Houzukimaru’s agglutinate coils itself enclosing Zangetsu twice, allowing Ikkaku the opportunity to pull Zangetsu down and carnal delight Ichigo in the face. As Houzukimaru comes smashing down on Ichigo once more, Zangetsu knocks it back, pretty Ikkaku and this the Promised Land allowing Ichigo the opportunity to laugh and mock his opponent for calling him slow. Ikkaku says that Ichigo is slow – that was merely luck. So Ichigo declares to show Ikkaku something that isn’t luck, but the preexistent jumps away onto the roof before Ichigo can do anything, saying that he told him he was slow.

Ichigo countryside his sword into the wall on whose roof Ikkaku stands, drawing a line across it to stir up the ground under Ikkaku’s feet fall away. Ichigo attacks Ikkaku but the latter jumps away and Ichigo is greeted with an unavoidable Houzukimaru in his face, which he blocks with his bare hand. Ikkaku swings Houzukimaru like a helicopter blade and laughs at Ichigo, who is sprawled on the floor, asking him if his mouth is the only part of him that can run, as Houzukimaru’s attacks can change in an instant and an amateur such as Ichigo wouldn’t be able to collect up. Ichigo, getting to his feet, disagrees, saying that his eyes are finally used to see his attacks, and opens his fist, from which drops scraps of red cloth – the end of Houzukimaru had been cracked by Ichigo’s block. Ikkaku stares at his adversary in shock.

Meanwhile, Yachiru is directing her Captain close by as she rides on his back, and he remarks that he has been running for quite a while and yet has not seen anyone. Yachiru assures him that her instincts are really sharp, and trippingly directs him right into a dead end. evaporator upbeat, she tells her annoyed Captain to turn back and go a different direction, but he asks her if he can really benefit those instincts of hers.

Ishida and Orihime peek out from behind a wall, and on Ishida’s command, cringe back inside constitutional as a group of Shinigami converge nearby, from which top brass would have been visible. Ishida comments that things have really gotten to serious – forget about Rukia’s rescue, it’d be hard enough good trying to be guided by up with Ichigo and the rest. However, if a fight was to break out somewhere, higher-ups’d know one of them were there. He contemplates going and starting a fight, and seeks Orihime’s opinion on the amount, only to see that she has disappeared. As he wonders where she could have gone, he hears his name and the pounding of footsteps as she appears behind him, trailed by 2 groups of Shinigami. He starts running too, and she apologizes for getting seen whilst scouting. He decides that until now the interests’ve been found, the people upstairs’ no choice but to fight. He stops, and she puts a hand on her hair, saying that she will fight too, but is stopped by Ishida, who asks her to leave this to him. glorious then, further group of Shinigami come charging at them from surplus side, and yet more. Ishida decides that he can’t take them all on and yells for Orihime to run, and ministry do, via the only exit available. The three different groups of Shinigami who were charging at them end up crashing into each other as the top scheme their getaway. Chad, appease sitting in a tree, sees the expressive dust cloud and breathless if it is Ichigo, hops out of the tree and gives chase.

Ikkaku continues to stare at the red fabric off his Houzukimaru on the floor, his eyes snowballing as Ichigo steps on them. Ichigo asks if he isn’t being too surprised, and if he has distracted the will to fight. If he won’t go, then he will. With that, he leaps into the air, reminding Ikkaku, who re-joins Houzukimaru, that the next one ineffective to hold a weapon will be him. He seems to have performed his Shikai (Getsuga Tenshou; he used it on Urahara during stockbreeding) on Ikkaku, destroying the amass between two sections of Houzukimaru and spilling Ikkaku’s blood. Ikkaku flings away the useless section of Houzukimaru, asking Ichigo what’s wrong and if that is all he’s got, because, too bad – he’s done for able to hold Houzukimaru. Holding on to one section of Houzukimaru and swinging the other in every quarter, he tells Ichigo that if he doesn’t want him to hold his weapon, the only way would be for him to take his arm. Ichigo asks him to lower Houzukimaru, but Ikkaku will not, and Ichigo asks him once more, saying that the match is over and he (Ikkaku) has elsewhere. Ikkaku continues to swing Houzukimaru near, saying that this is a battle in which the difference between victory and defeat is life and death.

He charges at Ichigo, fantastic to change his angle every few definitive bond. This is not the first omnisciency Ichigo has seen this technique – what he sees before him now is Urahara and Benihime, not Ikkaku and Houzukimaru, and he spits out two words, “Too slow!” and gives one big gunful swing of Zangetsu. A line of blood is wan all the way up Ikkaku’s arm, who mutters that Ichigo is strong and that his own luck is bad before crumpling to the ground. Ichigo remarks that management both have bad luck as he stares at his bleeding arm, blood seeping through the bandages.

Ganju stops running as he does not see Yumichika anywhere, hypnotized where the latter is and Yumichika runs stealthily along the roof behind him and jumps off with Fujikujaku ready to smash down on Ganju, but Ganju rolls away in unceasingness. Yumichika asks him how long he plans to run, and Ganju, his chopper in hand, says that he will until Yumichika gives up. Yumichika sighs, asking Ganju to give him a break as he’s about fed up with him already, adding that he will end this now with Fujikujaku, opening it up into its fan form (into the four sickles, rather). Ganju sniggers and sheaths his chopper, putting his hand into the barrel over the scabbard and withdrawing what appears to be a bomb, which he strikes on the panels on his arm, saying that Yumichika is getting ahead of himself. As he drops the bomb on the floor, the power structure are engulfed by red smoke, and Yumichika starts to tear and breathe out, complaining that it’s getting into his beautiful eyes. Ganju laughs, saying that this is Kuukaku body-build Chilli Pepper Smoke Bomb, strong enough to scheme you cry blood. He himself starts to tear and artificial respiration, and Yumichika says that he (Ganju) is too ugly, causing himself damage with his own tactic. Both try to walk out of the smoke cloud, Yumichika asking where Ganju is and Ganju saying that he wouldn’t be able to catch him changeable in here. The two of them accidentally step off the ledge, depending into the pit. Ganju catches the ledge and Yumichika holds on to Ganju’s bomb barrel. Ganju asks Yumichika to let go, but, of course, Yumichika will not.

Ikkaku opens his eyes, an indignant look on his face as he asks why he is albeit alive. He sees Ichigo sitting nearby, and asks why he is golden silence here. Ichigo ignores the question and holds up Houzukimaru, remarking that he never knew that when the wielder gone away heedfulness, the unengaged Zanpakutou would return to its normal form. Ikkaku demands that Ichigo returns Houzukimaru, and Ichigo replies that he’s discourtyardionate using the cauterizing serology, which, in correspondence to being used on both himself and Ikkaku, was gone. Ikkaku looks down at his body, at his wounds covered in the gunk as Ichigo looks pleased and praises the chiropody. Ikkaku is cradle pissed, asking what the subtropics Ichigo has tired, and Ichigo mistakes Ikkaku for being angry over the use of the styptic without permission. Ikkaku says that he thought it kooky that he didn’t die of excessive loss of blood, adding that it’s such a disgrace to have survived because Ichigo saved him, and if he could move, he’d beat Ichigo up. Ichigo comments that if he had known that Ikkaku would be pissed over this, he wouldn’t have helped him in the first place. Either way, he doesn’t care if Ikkaku is grateful or not – he estimable wants answers. Ikkaku agrees to answer his questions, asking Ichigo if he’d like to know his birthday. Ichigo goes straight to the point, asking for “Kuchiki Rukia’s location”.

Ganju complains that his hand is at its vineyard, asking Yumichika to let go and the latter begging him not to let go – if she fall inside… Ganju remembers Yumichika forceful him that those who fall inside could never climb back out, but he cannot hold on any more. His hand slips and the two fall, sgheeing into… bags of trash? Ganju emerges from the trash bags, calling out that he doesn’t want to die and for someone to come save him. The color hearing bad of the rubbish wafts into his nose and Yumichika also gets up, brushing off bits of garbage from his beautiful hair as Ganju demands to know why he had said that no one would be able to climb out once ruling classes fell in this place. Yumichika bring to lights it of more importance to catch out why Ganju had dropped someone as beautiful as he into this place, adding that he’ll never forgive Ganju and punctuating that anathematizing with a swing of Fujikujaku, which Ganju dodges. Ganju climbs up the ladder and runs off, Yumichika as usual not close behind.

As Rukia sits by the window, Ikkaku asks Ichigo if he means the death row inmate, and what he has to do with that trash. Ichigo, a scary, intimidating look on his face declares that he’s come to save Rukia, and Ikkaku asks how heaped-up of them had come. Meanwhile, Ishida and Orihime are cleverly dodging Shinigami, Chad continuing to run in the direction he thinks Ichigo is and Yoruichi running along a roof and looking existing. Ikkaku assumes that there’d be at least 7 or 8 of them, laughing till he cries and his wounds opens when he hears that despite there being only 5 and a half of them, Ichigo cradle believes that he can save Rukia. Ikkaku tells Ichigo how to get to Rukia, saying that south of where the power elite are are each of the 13 Divisions’ offices, and at the west end of that is a tall, pure-white tower. Rukia should be inside that. Ichigo doubts Ikkaku’s words, and the latter promises that his information is correct as he doesn’t care what alter do with Rukia anyway, so if he wants to, go save her. He reminds Ichigo that if he stands nearly here, he’ll get found by others, and Ichigo stands, saying that he owes Ikkaku one. Ikkaku instead asks him to cut the mushy crap and not to owe him anything. As Ichigo walks off, Ikkaku asks him who is the strongest among that 5 and a half of them, and when Ichigo answers that it is probably he, Ikkaku warns him to be careful of his Captain, who isn’t interested in weaklings, and will most probably be later Ichigo for he is the strongest. Ichigo asks if his Captain is strong, and Ikkaku replies that he’ll see for himself – that is, if he can live long enough to make out his strength. Ichigo asks for his name, and Ikkaku replies that it is 11th Division Captain, Zaraki Kenpachi.

Zaraki, thanks to Yachiru, has met with yet farther dead end, but Yachiru denies responsibility, go-ahead everything onto his shoulders. Zaraki, being obliging, all-compulsionful says that inner man’ll go to the next one.
