04x03 - Blood for My Bone

[bunniefuu]

What's this pitch-black place?

Where am I?

BLEACH: THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD w*r

Expend all of your power and die.

Ichigo!

Santenkesshun!

Shitenkoshun!

The power of rejection?

I...

Reject!

You cannot fully reject it.

My power has the same essence as Ichigo's.

You've unconsciously accepted it.

As a woman, you should be honored.

As a mere human, you ventured to a place
beyond your capability.

I won't let you harm him.

I will protect him.

So, I...

I reject you!

Getsuga Tensho!

I will k*ll you.

So hubris, Ichigo.

That equates to k*lling the world.

I have become the world.

When I got His Majesty's power,
I could wield it at will.

This is the power I possess
as His Majesty's other half.

Uryu Ishida.

If you truly survived
His Majesty's Auswahlen,

then survive my power now.

Your battle was contradictory
from the start.

You must have seen

the world is built
on such a delicate balance,

and how easily it falters.

k*lling His Majesty,
who has become one with the Soul King,

is no different than
destroying this world.

How pathetic.

If we defeat Yhwach,
the world will collapse.

I know that perfectly well.

In that case...

But,

if it were Kurosaki, he'd probably say...

Even so, I'll still defeat you.

I know the people
who've protected this world.

You have trampled on
what they want to protect.

There are so many people
I want to protect.

About their feelings and what they value,

I want to protect them all.

And if that means
I have to k*ll the world, so be it.

Here I come.

Getsuga Jujisho!

Did you realize?

Assuming that you defeat His Majesty,

without the Soul King,
what exactly would you need

to maintain the world as it was?

Not even that?

Ichigo, my son born in darkness.

Even though you know nothing,

you instinctively understand everything.

Because you understand that,
you try to defeat me without hesitation.

Ichibe Hyosube...

Everything is going according to his plan.

He took Ichigo Kurosaki away

and gave him the Soul King's
memories and explanations

to determine if Ichigo Kurosaki
is qualified to become like Soul King.

This is a miracle.

You're a human, a Soul Reaper,

a Hollow, a Fullbringer,
and also a Quincy.

You've probably never pondered
the nature of your power.

Why are you shrouded in black?

Black is the color of chaos.

Chaos is the Soul King's power.

The pure black is
the Soul King's spiritual pressure.

And the one controlling that black
is Ichibe Hyosube.

He must have told you
to protect the Soul King.

Sorry, sorry.

We took you for a different reason.

We wanted to see if you're a vessel
strong enough to contain immense power

or a fragile bowl that would shatter.

I took a small portion of your power
to restore my body.

Please protect the Soul King, Ichigo.

I'll tell you his true intention.

Ichibe Hyosube intends
to make you the next Soul King.

How could that be?

He intends to shape you into a puppet
that maintains the three realms,

preserving a world
where Soul Reapers reign supreme.

That's the peace Ichibe Hyosube envisions.

To you, that would be
no different than death.

So what?

"So what?"

What?

Nothing.

I was just thinking
that's what Kurosaki would say.

Whether I become the Soul King or not
doesn't matter at all.

All I know right now

is that if I don't defeat you,
I won't be able to protect anything.

Yhwach!

BLEACH EPISODE 43
BLOOD FOR MY BONE

HASCHWALTH

What kind of monster is that?

So strong it made Hachi wet himself.

I did not wet myself.

How boring.

Even captains
of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads

are this insignificant before my miracle?

Their spiritual pressure
is too faint to be sensed.

Like crushing ants in the sand,

it's nearly impossible.

That's exactly why I must find them.

Did you think I couldn't find you
just because it seems impossible?

Making the impossible possible
is a miracle.

We don't know what happened earlier.

Why are you talking about miracles?

Nobody understands what you're saying.

Baldy.
- I'm not bald!

What kind of answer is that?

Are you serious?

You think I'd get hit by that?

Not really,
if it were just my strike alone.

Sakanade.

Everything's flipped upside down.

It's all inverted.

Everyone, now!

Let me play you a tritone.

Tekken Tachikaze!

Super White Kick!

Chocolate Bar Slider!

Flame-Spitting Mallet!

Article 21: Dragonfly Descent!

It's over.

We did it.

Oh well, this could go on forever.

Right, I'll destroy this entire area
along with these ones.

I won't let you destroy it.

Stay frozen here forever.

Who are you?

Toshiro Hitsugaya, Captain of Squad 10
in Thirteen Court Guard Squads.

Is it?

I am Gerard Valkyrie of the Schutzstaffel,
the Sternritter's elite guard.

Let's get along.

Sorry,

but I'm not here to make peace.

Bankai: Daiguren Hyorinmaru!

Shiro...

I see.

What a childish response.

Kurosaki!

Is correcting a child's mistake
also a father's duty?

So fast.

I can't keep up with Kurosaki's movements.

Wait, Kurosaki!

Calm down... please.

How puzzling.

Why rush to your death like this?

Are you reluctant
to show me your full power

and let me witness your power
before taking it?

But is that the right choice, Ichigo?

If you die now,

both the Human World
and Soul Society will end.

I will end them.

Are you fine with that, Ichigo?

See? Your companion told you not to do so.

She healed your wounds
and told you to fight.

You never had a choice from the beginning.

Answer, Ichigo.

Answer the cries of the weak.

For the sake of the weak
who can't even breathe without you.

Stand up.

Fight.

And then die.

Thanks, Inoue.

I only grabbed your clothes,
and you stopped.

When you looked back,
you didn't seem to be out of your mind.

I figured you must have your reason.

I wanted to flood Quincy's
spiritual pressure to wake someone up.

Your sword turned white.

I see. Is that your goal all along?

BLEACH: THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD w*r

Now, the finishing blow.

I can't even stop him for an instant?

What a tenacious guy.

You think this freezing trick can stop me?

I am saved.

I dislike the word "miracle",
but he's strong.

Yeah.

It's hard to fight him alone.
I'll help you.

Fine.

With this height difference,
two against one isn't unfair.

What's with that look?

Do you want to say
there is always the height difference?

No, I don't mean to say that.

Sorry.
- Why do you apologize?

You hesitated for long,
but still apologized.

Look at me.

What?

All the captains gathered
and got wiped out?

Pathetic.

This one spells trouble.

My... my right hand...

It got even stronger.

What was that all about?

It's his ability.

Injured parts enlarge and strengthen.

I see.

So he wasn't this tall to begin with.

What? Say what you want.

Nothing. You're overthinking.

Interesting.

What if I chop you up?

What'll happen then? I'm curious.

That idiot.

What're you doing?

If I hadn't stopped,
you'd be split in half as well.

I didn't expect you to be so considerate.

Then please be more considerate.

What are you saying?

If he keeps growing
and falls underneath, what should you do?

What else can be done?

I'll go down with him and k*ll him.

A guy of this size
falling from this height

would destroy Seireitei.

Stop quibbling. So annoying.

Don't play around.
Just cleave his skull, okay?

Zaraki!

You actually made me fall. You're strong.

I don't feel up to it because
it's too brutal, but it can't be helped.

Powerful incarnation of darkness,

I'll make you
become the rust on my Hoffnung.

I can't believe I couldn't cut him.

Is it because of the durable shield
and his hard body?

That makes me want to cut him even more.

Devour!

Nozarashi!

What is that? His Shikai?

When did Zaraki...

Wasn't his sword
the constant-release type?

No.

Maybe there isn't
any constant-release type.

Idiot.

The Hoffnung is damaged.

Senbonzakura Kageyoshi.

Hyoryusenbi.

Zekku!

Do you seek despair that badly?

What is this? Why?

Why are you confused?

My power is the miracle.

The miracle is the materialization
of thoughts.

This indestructible body of mine
grows from people's fear.

Hoffnung is the sword forged with hopes.

If it breaks, that means despair.

I am Gerard Valkyrie.

I am the miracle. The miracle is me.

My life is ever-changing.
