Gyokaku Kumoi, having grown impatient
with the failed attempts to assassinate Rurichiyo,
gives his retainer Hanza Nukui and his men
strange swords known as the Bakkouto,
and dispatches them to the World of the Living.
Here I come, Ichigo Kurosaki!
Bankai!
Rukia battles one of the assassins, Douko,
and is hurt by the ominous Bakkouto, Retsurai.
Kenryu and Enryu come to her aid
and she manages to release her Kido
and continues to hold her own.
Amazing!
I can feel the power building inside me!
This is the power of the Bakkouto?!
Meanwhile, Ishida battles Kuzuryu
and is locked in a corridor of mist created by the Bakkouto, Shiragiri.
Shiragiri, Mugen Kairou!
This is…
There!
What?!
Over here.
An illusion?
How long can you keep running?
And finally, Sado is also caught up in a fierce battle
against Genga and his Bakkouto, Kakuyoku.
I’ll show you… the true power of my Kakuyoku!
There’s no sign… of his presence.
You’re mine!
He is much faster than I thought.
I must stop his moves.
What?!
The finishing blow!
What?!
Prepare to die!
Don’t think that’s the extent of the power of this Bakkouto, Retsurai!
What?!
What? Is it over already?
Miss Kuchiki!
Kenryu! You must help Miss Kuchiki!
Right!
You fool.
Lady Rurichiyo!
Take this!
What?!
Take Lady Rurichiyo!
You’re in my way!
Kenryu!
Enryu!
Damn it!
Not only his speed…
I must immobilize the blades on his back,
or there’s no chance of victory.
That’s it!
Hado Number 33:
Sokatsui!
Damn!
Sokatsui!
Why you…
You squirming little…
Well then…
Die!
Somenomai…
Tsukishiro!
What?!
Why you…
Now!
Bakudo Number 4: Hainawa!
What?!
Bakudo Number 1: Sai!
You think you’re so clever.
Tsuginomai Hakuren!
I did it.
Take Lady Rurichiyo!
I won’t forgive you.
I won’t forgive you!
What is this?!
What?!
Stop!
What…What happened just now?
What’s going on?!
His Spiritual Pressure is scattered throughout
and I can’t sense his presence.
What is that sword?
Seeleschneider.
The only bladed Quincy weapon.
I never heard that Quincies use swords.
Perhaps we use other weapons you’re not aware of.
Don’t kid around.
Strange…
This mist is created with reishi.
So why is the convergence of reishi weakening?
Then…
All right.
What’s going on?
Even if he’s using the Flash Step, his speed is too fast.
Also, that blade…
I used my Seeleschneider on it, but there’s not even a knick.
Did he repair it with the reishi in this mist?
No, because then I could accumulate reishi easily too.
It can’t be…
Has he actually combined with the mist?!
So that’s it.
Yes, it seems you figured it out.
This mist is my body.
But with that leg, you can no longer use the Hirenkyaku.
You cannot escape my Shiragiri, Mugen Kairou.
I wondered what you would do.
It’s useless.
You seem to be waiting for the moment that I materialize physically…
but it’s useless.
Now, how long can you hold out?
I figured that would be your move!
Wha—?
W-What is this?!
Sprenger.
It is a Quincy Zeichen I drew with my Seeleschneider.
When did you…
It’s all thanks to you.
What?!
I purposely created openings in five directions.
And because you attacked each opening,
I was able to set up the barrier.
Not yet. Not with something like this!
As if I’ll let you get away!
What are you doing?!
It’s over now!
Impossible!
Do you intend to blow yourself up?!
You’ll be caught up in it too!
You’re the one who’s getting hit by the attack directly!
Damn it.
Lady Rurichiyo, are you hurt?
I am fine. But Enryu…
Enryu!
Please rest assured.
Enryu is quite sturdy.
It must’ve been painful for you too, Kenryu.
We must tend to your wounds.
The sword used by that assassin.
He called it a Bakkouto.
Wha—?!
You! Hold it!
Just what are those swords?
He appeared from within the wall?!
This is the power of my Bakkouto, Kakuyoku!
Crap!
What’s the matter?
You can’t just keep running away!
Then… I just have to break the wall!
Too naïve!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
You can’t break the wall unless you turn your back towards me!
Not necessarily.
Damn it! What is this brute strength?!
Well, your act of desperation won’t work a second time!
That’s fine.
I won’t let you go inside the wall again.
Ridiculous!
What?!
You want to crush me before I go into the wall?
Interesting. Let’s see you try!
Just how much tougher can you get?
You too.
What’s so funny?
Nothing.
I never imagined that a man like you existed in the World of the Living.
I came to Nukui wanting this sword.
And not only do I possess this sword,
but I have found an opponent that I can test its power on to its limit!
How can I not laugh?!
Forget it! That sword is sucking the life out of you.
I’m well aware of that!
I only want to know the extent of my power!
This is the final attack!
Fine.
I will garner all my strength to counter you.
Brazo Izquierdo Del Diablo.
So you still had a hidden power?
Forgive me.
That’s all right.
Try it if you can!
Kakuyoku! Give me strength!
La Muerte!
Sado!
Chad too?!
You!
That Spiritual Pressure belongs to your friend and mine!
What of it?
You jerk!
On the battlefield, the one who loses his temper dies.
Shut up!
Oh?
You display fine swordsmanship.
I know your moves!
Wha—?!
I told you before.
I never fall for the same move twice!
That Zanpakuto derives its attack from reflected light.
So if I shatter that, it’s all over!
I wonder about that.
What?!
I told you, depending on the Spiritual Pressure of its wielder,
this sword can get infinitely stronger.
Miss Kuchiki, are you hurt?
I’m fine.
But the house is in tatters.
That’s why we have quick and efficient insurance
for whatever happens to the house.
Where did you get this insurance?
Urahara’s Shop.
I wonder about that.
Complete Quincy.
Today’s segment is about the application of the Seeleschneider.
SPRENGER
This is called Sprenger.
Seeleschneider is used to create a formation in the ground.
Then reishi is activated to set off an explosion.
It is powerful, but due to the time it takes to form,
it is wise to have the aid of comrades.
Relying on others again, eh?
My hand slipped.
I swear you’re doing that on purpose!
