Zanpakuto
Their shape and abilities are based on their Soul Reaper's soul.
Soul Reapers gain power
by learning their names and synergizing with them.
They are born with Soul Reapers and die with Soul Reapers.
That is what Zanpakuto are.
Everything went according to my plan.
I thank you, Soul Reapers.
And Ichigo Kurosaki.
You bastard!
Sorry, but I've gotta go.
I don't care to talk to you any longer.
Farewell, Genryusai Yamamoto and the Soul Reapers.
There is nothing you can do against me anymore.
Get out of the way!
Whoa!
This is frustrating.
It's as if he's just playing around with us.
It seems he plans to keep us trapped here.
He's mocking us!
This won't stop us!
What?!
Ichigo!
It sh*t at me?!
Things won't be that easy.
Damn it! Muramasa, that bastard
Head Captain
Where has Muramasa gone?
He's headed to an enriched spiritual zone
in the World of the Living Karakura Town.
What?!
Karakura Town has the thing that he wants.
So this is the current enriched spiritual zone
Karakura Town
Byakuya Kuchiki
Thanks to you, I was able to find the place I wanted to go to.
I thank you.
I just did what my pride demanded of me.
An enriched spiritual zone is a spiritual hotspot.
If we stay here, lots of spiritual things will be drawn to us.
In that case, I'll deal with the Hollows that draw near.
All right.
I'm going to save my emotions until after I've achieved my goal.
I'll keep watch over him.
I'm counting on you.
Byakuya Kuchiki What are you thinking?
I don't have time.
I must hurry.
Are you serious, Old Man?!
What would Muramasa want with Karakura Town?!
Ichigo!
Oh, no!
Concentrate! We need to escape first!
Yoruichi!
Could we escape from there?!
Yes. It isn't completely sealed off yet.
Shunko!
Ichigo! Cover me!
Everyone, this way!
I'm counting on you!
What?!
W-What?!
It sealed up!
Yoruichi!
I'm all right!
Ichigo and the others have started up.
I wonder if Ichi is all right.
If he improves his skills, that'll be interesting to see.
And if he dies, I'll just fight the guy who defeated him.
Well then
We should let loose too!
Stop fooling around!
Get serious already.
I already know.
You couldn't go all out because of your buddy.
That's why I cut him down first.
There's no one to get in our way.
The real fun is about to begin!
It looks like you're finally going to get serious too, Kenny.
Yeah.
Stand back, Yachiru.
Aye aye, sir!
Bankai.
This is interesting!
I hope you have power that matches your size!
Shunko!
Show yourself already!
Okay.
I knew it was you two.
We'll get you for earlier.
I'm not supposed to defeat other people's Zanpakuto,
so I held back, but you escaped pretty quickly.
Well, aren't you cocky.
You shouldn't underestimate our power.
Honestly, old ladies are all so overconfident!
You're not sexy at all, even in that outfit!
Girls don't understand the allure of an adult.
I don't need to understand that!
Hey! Now's not the time to be saying that!
Now
Muramasa's orders were holding us back before,
but things won't be so easy for you now!
That's right, it won't!
Good grief. I guess I have no choice.
I guess I'll show you girls how a truly great woman fights.
Getsugatensho!
Hado !
Raikoho!
Oh, dear It isn't working at all.
How can we break through this?
Damn it!
It's not easy, but with time, I could control him.
But we don't have time.
If we don't hurry up and stop Muramasa,
he'll dispel the seal.
The seal?
What seal?!
Is that why Muramasa went to Karakura Town?!
Tell me!
What is Muramasa trying to do?!
Muramasa is after Koga.
He's trying to revive the Soul Reaper Koga,
the master of the Zanpakuto Muramasa.
Muramasa is a Zanpakuto that can
enter another person's inner world
and control the Zanpakuto that lives within it.
His master, Koga, once led a rebellion against Seireitei.
The Zanpakuto controlled by Muramasa
not only denied their masters' power,
they also att*cked them and
thrust Soul Society into chaos.
We suffered great casualties but
finally managed to seal Koga away.
Muramasa's Soul Reaper master
That's the back story?
But Muramasa said that he k*lled his own master.
That's one of his lies.
Koga still lives within the seal even now.
And the seal is in Karakura Town
I've never heard about that.
It's a secret event that was never recorded.
Then what did Muramasa gain by entering your mind?
Something only I know ” how to free Koga.
If he becomes one with Koga, he might wipe out
the enriched spiritual zone known as Karakura Town!
It's all my fault.
So this is the place.
It's almost time, Koga
Who's there?!
Who are you?
Why are you here?
Santenkesshun!
What the ”?
This is our ”
What?
Huh?
I'm almost
You can't move yet!
You're
I'm almost finished.
This power Who are you?
Huh? Umm I'm, umm
I heard that someone came to the World of the Living,
so I came to check things out.
Are you one of the Substitute Soul Reaper's friends?
Huh?
Why did you save me?
Why? I can't ignore an injured person.
I'm Ichigo Kurosaki's enemy.
I thought so.
Even so How should I put this?
I can't just let you be.
Besides
You looked like you were in so much pain.
Ridiculous
What is this?
This ominous Spiritual Pressure is like that of an Arrancar
Ishida! Sado!
You had friends with you?
Are you our guest from Soul Society?
Are you all right, Inoue?
Getsugatensho!
All right!
I'm not going to make it!
Are you all right, Ichigo?!
Damn it
If Muramasa dispels the seal, it'll be my fault.
I have to stop him!
I'm going to try this once more from above!
What?!
Oh, no!
What?
Reign over the Frosted Heavens!
Hyorinmaru!
Toshiro! Hyorinmaru!
Sorry I'm late!
Captain Hitsugaya!
Are your wounds better now?
Yeah. Anyway, these flames Are they what I think they are?
Yeah. It's Old Man Yama's Ryujinjakka.
He even got to the Head Captain's Zanpakuto
Where is Muramasa?
Muramasa is
He's headed to Karakura Town.
What?!
He's planning to revive his Soul Reaper master.
His Soul Reaper master?
Let's just say, the situation is terrible.
Damn it.
This is an emergency.
The first thing we must do is get Ichigo Kurosaki out of here.
What? Really?
I
If you feel responsible, then do what you can to stop Muramasa!
Got it!
Let's go!
Yeah.
Bankai.
Daiguren Hyorinmaru!
Bankai.
Ryusenka!
Now, Kurosaki! Go!
Okay!
We're counting on you, Ichigo.
Now then
It looks like I need to give my sword some harsh punishment.
Just you wait, Muramasa!
I will stop you!
Are you the Substitute Soul Reaper's friends too?
“ That's right. “ No, I'm not!
Anyway, I'm a Quincy!
Quincies and Soul Reapers are enemies! By definition ”
Get to the point.
In other words, we're his friends.
I told you, Quincies and Soul Reapers are ”
