It's over?
That's enough, Bazz-B.
I'll give him the final blow.
Do you want to steal the credit, Cang Du?
His Highness might punish you.
He established the rule of killing the captain
with the stolen Bankai.
Matsumoto!
She's your important lieutenant, isn't she?
Then you should die together.
Sternritter "I,"
"The Iron," Cang Du.
Those who live together should also die together.
This has always been my belief.
STERNRITTER "I," CANG DU
Bankai.
Daiguren Hyorinmaru.
This is probably the first time you have seen someone else do it.
What a beautiful Bankai.
This Bankai
is also your partner.
I sincerely apologize for stealing the Bankai from you,
and I am sorry from the bottom of my heart that
it will continue to exist after you die.
Hello?
It's connected. Good.
You…
Hello, it's me. I'm Urahara.
I've completed the method to reclaim the Bankai.
What?
You're saying to reclaim the Bankai, right?
Yeah.
To be more specific,
I have discovered a flaw in the Quincies' approach to stealing the Bankai.
Perhaps we can exploit this flaw to prevent them from stealing the Bankai
and reclaim our stolen Bankai.
That's it.
Awesome, as expected of Kisuke Urahara.
You dummy.
I see.
What a brilliant research result.
It's alright.
This is just a piece of cake.
But that's a different matter from what I want to say.
You put a communication device on my clothes without my permission.
It is a capital offense.
Huh? Wait a minute.
You want to cut off communication, right?
Goodbye.
No way. Wait a minute. Don't hang up--
Just kidding.
He appeared in person.
Did I scare you?
I'm sorry.
I was calling you from the Dangai.
On that note, I hope you can help me, Captain Kurotsuchi.
There's nothing I can help you with.
As you can see, the Quincies' schemes
have rendered Department of Research & Development inoperable.
No… What are you talking about?
Isn't there another place?
You could see through the Quincies' shadow characteristics.
As expected of you, Captain Kurotsuchi.
Could I ask for your help?
Captain.
Lock on to the coordinates of all the captains and lieutenants.
Yes.
Release all the Modified Bugs.
Let the Modified Bugs modify the Quincies' mechanical objects,
and use them.
Let them connect to the system in this room.
No, they can't connect.
It's normal for them to fail, as it's never been done before.
Try until they can.
Yes.
These are the Shadow Infiltration Pills.
Are these what you were talking about?
Yes.
With this, we can completely prevent them from stealing the Bankai from us.
After hearing that captains' Bankai had been taken away,
I decided to stay in Hueco Mundo.
Because I personally saw
the clues that could prevent the Bankai from being stolen there.
When I confronted Quilge Opie, who had absorbed the Hollow,
I found that he changed completely at the moment when he absorbed it.
He seemed not to fully harness the power.
As you know, Captain Kurotsuchi,
Arrancar's Resurreccion
is to seal the soul power in the form of a sword,
and gain the power through its release.
It can almost be said to be the same as Bankai in essence.
If they could steal the captains' Bankai,
then they should also be able to steal the Arrancar's Resurreccion.
However, Arrancar's Resurreccion have never been stolen by them.
It's not that the Quincies aren't interested in Arrancar.
In fact, Quincies have captured a number of Arrancars,
and brought them back to use as soldiers.
However, their Resurreccion weren't stolen.
There are two possible reasons.
One is that they can't steal the Resurreccion.
The other is that stealing it would be harmful to them.
According to our research on Hollows,
I can't think of a reason why they could steal Bankai
instead of the Resurreccion.
If that's the case,
stealing the latter might be harmful to them.
We have found Spiritual Pressure locations
of the captains and lieutenants inside and outside the Seireitei.
Tenteikura is ready.
It's ready for communication.
Understood.
Hello, Captains and Lieutenants of the 13 Court Guard Squads.
I am Kisuke Urahara.
I think some of you may not know me, or not clear about my identity.
-Let me introduce myself later. -Who doesn't know you? Idiot.
While I'm on the line,
I've sent a black pill to each of you.
It's a pill that only reacts
to those who possess Bankai.
It's called Shadow Infiltration Pill.
Whether it's with your hands or a sword,
please touch it.
The pill will be absorbed
from the part in contact, penetrating to the inner soul.
Regarding the Quincy,
there's one thing that has always bothered me.
The Quincy's strong hostility towards hollows
might not be born out of resentment as rumored.
Hostility can be born out of the difference in thoughts.
It's impossible to continuously hate
someone who lacks will and thought.
There's only one reason why they would hold such strong hostility.
That is the fundamental fear of things that pose a threat to life.
That's right.
Quincy belongs to a race without any antibodies against Hollows.
Everything about the Hollows is poisonous to Quincy.
Once they are invaded by the Hollow,
not only will their Spiritual Power weaken,
but even their soul will collapse and they'll die in the end.
They can't even choose the Hollowfication like Soul Reapers.
So the Quincies must exterminate all Hollows.
In other words, if a small amount of Hollow power is absorbed,
causing the Bankai to undergo Hollowfication in a flash,
the Bankai will also
become poisonous to the Quincies.
What's wrong?
What's going on?
What exactly did you do?
Who knows?
Maybe Hyorinmaru wanted to come back.
The captain has been defeated.
You still have the strength to resist?
I was just planning to collect data before she dies.
Captain, this is for you.
You should be able to use Bankai with this.
I don't really understand the details though.
After a close-range explosion,
the sensitivity of the sound collector will automatically be decreased.
Can you speak up a bit?
The connection is slowing down.
It's a Hollowfied Bankai
that is interfering with your bodily functions.
Captain, did you hear what he said?
Idiot.
How could I not wake up when I heard that annoying voice?
Bankai!
Jakuho Raikoben.
What?
Stand firm, Omaeda.
Yes!
Why is the Bankai in your hand?
Why is that?
You should take a hit
before analyzing it.
Don't force it, okay?
How could it attack itself?
Can you stop speaking as if Bankai has a mind?
I don't like pantheism.
What?
Bankai doesn't have a mind…
Are you serious about that?
Yeah, he seems so.
It's been a long time since I last heard your voice.
You're finally back.
Hyorinmaru.
My wings…
I was wondering why my face was blocked.
Speaking of which, he said I need to
make my Bankai undergo Hollowfication in a flash, right?
Damn it.
There's no other way.
Let's go with this for now.
Snake Claw!
The cross flower is the emblem of Hyorinmaru.
I'm sorry I couldn't make it a pentagram for you.
Don't let the opponent defeat you.
That's so lame.
It's over.
Wait for me… Matsumoto.
I'm coming to save you…
SHADOW INFILTRATION PILL
RESURRECCION
Bankai are back in the hands of the Soul Reapers.
You're really something.
"You're outnumbered." "You should surrender."
That's what you thought, right?
Of course it's annoying when companions are killed.
But I can't use certain moves when I have companions around.
Your fixed idea and our situation…
I will overthrow them all.
Bankai.
Sakashima Yokoshima Happofusagari.
My Bankai will reverse the consciousness
of enemies and companions, making them kill each other.
Sakashima Yokoshima Happofusagari.
After all, enemies and companions can be found everywhere in Seireitei now.
The weakness of this move is that it can't be used recklessly.
We don't have to worry about Bankai being stolen anymore.
Let's counterattack.
No, it's better if we don't act rashly.
The shadows are increasing. I have a bad feeling about this.
Huh?
What? It's Madarame.
What are you up to?
Why did you come to join us?
Because I got lost.
The terrain is completely different from before.
They filled the Seireitei
with high-density Reishi, in order not to be found by us.
Aren't they all hiding in the shadows?
We don't know where they will come out from.
We have to be careful…
You did well for a warm-up.
I can compliment you guys.
Who is for the warm-up? You masked Weeble Wobble.
Take off your mask. Let us see your ugly face.
Death match of taking off the mask.
Three against one. One move to decide the outcome?
Interesting.
Hey, James.
Ring the bell.
Come on.
You've got to be kidding.
Hiding your own power,
and trying to defeat the superstar.
That's impossible.
What?
We'll have a chain death match too!
I have no idea what they are…
doing!
It's just losing the power you stole.
What's the big deal?
After all, the puppy
who was supposed to be my opponent isn't in the Seireitei at all.
Since he's not here,
you should have told me from the beginning.
Are you guys listening?
Why is no one here?
I just talked loudly to myself!
Lil, Gigi, Meni, Candy!
Come out!
I said come out!
You know what happens when you embarrass the leader.
I will raze this entire area to the ground
and force you guys to come out.
Stop!
Puppy?
Why are you wearing a bucket?
You're hiding your face because you're scared of me, right?
I don't have time to deal with you.
Everything is for the sake of avenging Master Genryusai's death.
I will behead Yhwach!
Is that so?
However, the kind little puppy changed his route to come here
to protect his companions.
But don't you think
it is a bit early for you to show up as a hero?
You should've waited for me to make Seireitei even more miserable.
That would've been more exciting.
Is that so?
Then we probably can't be heroes.
We don't have the patience to watch you wreck the Seireitei.
Sorry about that.
Who are you?
Leave this to me. Go ahead.
-Sorry. -Wait, don't order my puppy…
What's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?
What's going on?
It's Sakanade, my Zanpakuto.
It has the ability to completely reverse everything you see.
Adapting to combat is impossible.
You must feel dizzy.
Right. I also started practicing talking backwards recently.
Just with this trick…
Didn't I say you can't do it?
What are you talking about?
Although killing a girl is against my principles,
please forgive me.
Don't underestimate me!
Bastard!
Didn't I say it would be reversed?
How about calling your friends to help you?
Oh, sorry.
Are you alone?
I want to punch your disgustingly happy face before the puppy.
No matter how many times you try, it's all in vain.
Take this.
Now, Madarame!
Rejoice, Sternritter.
That light is…
What is this?
Quincy, Vollständig.
We couldn't use this before
because we were hindered by the Bankai.
Thank you so much
for letting us use this power.
You'll regret reclaiming your Bankai, Soul Reapers.
This is the end of a boring battle
filled with hope and warmth.
From now on, it's the real despair.
It's so close,
but it feels so far away.
What was that just now?
It doesn't matter.
All I can do is keep going.
Not again.
As long as the fangs in my heart remain,
I will continue to fight against my own life.
