Ishida...

Ishida!

Say something...

Ishida!

Kurosaki!

Ishida!

Rukia!

POST INVASION – FORMER SQUAD 1 BARRACKS

Why aren't they shooting them down?

Are they just going to let them into the Royal Palace?

Is this also...

part of your plan, Manako Osho?

POST INVASION – URBAN AREA

Oh, wow...

That was some ride. It blew us and Santenkesshun away.

Hope you guys didn't bump your head or anything...

Ichigo. We're just as shocked as you are.

But this is Ishida we're talking about.

He must've had a very good reason to join their side.

Yeah, I know...

I knew it all along...

It's been on my mind ever since this war began.

If this is a battle between Soul Reapers and Quincies...

that would make me and Ishida...

But we've always fought side by side.

Ishida is...

He's our friend.

Yeah!

I don't know if he feels the same way, though.

In that case, we know what we have to do.

Yeah.

We can't let him get away for leaving us without an explanation.

Let's go after him and hear what he has to say!

If his answers aren't good enough...

I'll smack him and drag him back!

And what if you agree with his reasons?

Then that's that.

I'll still smack him and drag him back!

Sounds good.

Yeah!

So how do we get to him?

– Huh? – Huh?!

Whoops...

Looks like I got here a bit too late.

Urahara...!

So, what now?

Shall I go book you a ticket to the Royal Palace?

Please!

Oh, my darling, I don't even know where my heart has gone

And I've forgotten that dream I once had

Becoming an adult = keeping a public face and bluffing?

Tell me, what is reflected in the painted-over mirror?

Your photo is starting to fade

Leaving me, as I change

I'll shout at the top of my voice as it pierces through the night

Burning my chest, formless fear and all

It's okay if I can't laugh like that day

Sadness, scars, everything... I want to take them all with me

You can't kill my vibe, oh baby

Burning out now, like a shooting star

You can't kill my vibe, oh baby

Burning out now, like a shooting star

BLEACH: THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD WAR

So, the Quincies weren't targeting the Seireitei,

but rather the Royal Palace.

What are they up to?

Are you going to pursue them?

Even though we're not dead yet?

Where did Ichigo Kurosaki go?!

Captain...

Let me give you a hand.

We're not letting you get away...

you damn bastard...

Are you okay, Rukia?

Yes. Thank you.

Did you feel that?

Yes...

So it wasn't my imagination.

Why, Ishida...?

What's this?!

You guys are pissed at Uryu Ishida, too?

We're pissed at him, too!

If you want, I can give you a hand to go and kill him!

What?

Stop talking nonsense, chicken head!

– "Chicken"? – We don't need your help

– Hold on, you bastard... – to go smack him!

You're not talking about

this awesome razor-sharp mohawk of mine, are you?!

What? Don't you like chickens?

They get up early and lay eggs. They're awesome.

That's what you are, right?

I respect that.

You are so dead!

I thought you'd have some taste

because of those cool razor-sharp eyebrows...

But I guess I was wrong!

You're... a really nice guy!

Good for you.

It's too late now!

Burner Finger Four!

Whoa! Wait!

Wait, wait, stop!

You're not thinking of cutting down an unarmed girl, are you?

That's so not cool!

I mean, doesn't that go against your code as a man?

You guys are losers!

She's baiting us.

I know.

Careful.

The fact she's goading you to cut her this much

means there's something about the act of cutting her itself.

For example, getting sprayed with her blood could be dangerous.

N-No, I don't think so...

Oh, but I don't think you should cut me, though.

This is all a ruse.

While I'm at it, let me expose more of your monkey business.

You said something about being an "unarmed girl," but...

you're a guy, aren't you?

Huh?

I know you're trying to hide it. But it's so obvious.

Bambi!

Who the hell are you?!

Sorry to keep you waiting, Bambi!

Come on...

Let's crush these guys!

Isn't anyone else here?

All of the captains and lieutenants are still battling the Quincies...

so that you can get to the Royal Palace, Kurosaki.

Okay! Get in.

When did you manage to build Kukaku's cannon

below the Squad 12 barracks?

Apparently, around the time Squad Zero had descended.

Captain Kurotsuchi foresaw this outcome

and started building the base structure.

You mean he foresaw that the enemy's boss and his men

would ascend to the Royal Palace?

Yup.

So, by the time I joined up,

all that was left was to put on the finishing touches.

Wow...

That guy is pretty amazing.

I thought he was just a nut job...

Captain Kurotsuchi is a genius.

Second only to me, of course.

Anyway, it's not an exact replica, though.

The Shiba Family's cannon is

a one-of-a-kind— built using their family secret...

and cannot be easily replicated.

Our cannon will break down after firing one shot.

Just one?!

Well, we just have to make sure we don't fail on that one try.

The real problem is that we don't have sufficient energy to fire it.

Then how are we going to fire it?

Good question.

It shouldn't be long now...

– Kisuke. – Yes?

The guest you asked for is here.

She has returned from her assignment.

Inform her to begin the next stage.

Oh, Yoruichi!

Welcome back.

How did it go, Yoruichi?

– Here. – I knew I could count on you!

What are those?

These are the distortions that the Quincies have been creating.

We began seeing these shortly before

the Wandenreich started their invasion.

– We're hereby forming – Oh, it's Hiyori!

the "Fixing the Super Pain-In-The-Butt Distortion

Between the World of the Living and the Soul Society" crew!

This gaping hole is the distortion!

– Now that you mention it, – The surrounding area

– that thing does look – appears warped.

– pretty kinky. – Yes.

– Cut it out. – The distortion is acting

– There's nothing kinky about it. – like a wedge.

– Even from this angle, – It has disrupted the border

– I don't see it. – between the World of the Living and the Soul Society,

causing the two worlds to connect.

What purpose would that serve?

Let's just say we're still working to find out.

What we should be focusing on right now

is the fact that this distortion...

is a massive concentration of energy

powerful enough to connect the two worlds.

Massive energy...

Is that what we're going to use to fire the cannon?

Anticipating that this might happen,

I had Yoruichi, Hiyori and the others

collect the distortion energy.

This man worked us to the bone.

Well, shall we get started?

Let's get ready for a trip to the Royal Palace!

What's the deal with that brat?!

She's throwing endless bombs at us!

No...

I don't think that's what's happening.

How am I wrong?

Well, the projectiles themselves aren't bombs.

I think they turn what they strike into bombs.

Tomayto tomahto!

– No, it's not. – Huh?

Because it means you can't deflect those bullets with your Hozukimaru.

I see...

So, in other words...

Our only option is to cut her down while dodging the projectiles!

You are so reckless!

Hado Number 57...

Daichitenyo!

Are you guys stupid?

Nothing you do is going to kill her.

Bambi's already dead.

It wasn't easy, you know...

turning Bambi into a zombie.

I can't do it to Quincies unless they're dead.

So I had to squeeze the life out of her myself.

The look on Bambi's face...

it got me so excited.

You sick pervert...

On the other hand, it's much easier with a Soul Reaper.

Even if you aren't dead, simply splashing you with my blood...

turns you right into a zombie.

Which of you wants to be a zombie first?

I see, I see...

The ability to turn an enemy into a zombie, eh?

Now that is extremely interesting.

It's so bright, I can barely see you.

Who are you?

Well, aren't you an ignorant one?

Don't you know great people often appear to be shining?

Um, I wasn't asking why you were shining.

BARRIERS OF THE ROYAL PALACE

CANNON UNDER THE SQUAD 12 BARRACKS

I can't see because it's so bright,

but that voice sounds like Captain Kurotsuchi...

Even if you couldn't hear his voice...

he's pretty much the only one who would dress like that.

What's that?

You're saying you're gonna protect me, Bambi?

Thanks!

I want it...

I want it, Gigi... I want your...

Please...

I can't help it...

I can't take it anymore, Gigi...

I want it so bad...!

Aww, look at you...

So gross!

You want it so badly.

You're such an insatiable girl,

...aren't you, Bambi?!

You'll get your treat when it's all over. Got it?

Y-Yes...

I'm sorry.

Please don't be angry.

Bambi don't want to be punished.

I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

I'm sorry...

Nice. Very nice.

What you have going there is outstanding.

You're not shining anymore.

I toned down my greatness

so even an ordinary person like you can see me.

You think I'm "ordinary" when you just said I was "outstanding"?

Don't take it personally.

Compared to me, everyone is ordinary.

Do it, Bambi.

Hmm... The velocity of each of her bombs

appears to be roughly the same.

Nemu, prepare it.

Yes, sir.

You think we'd let you get away?!

What should I set it for?

Hmm, let's see...

Three seconds ought to do it.

They're not exploding?!

What just happened?

Why did it take so long for them to become bombs?

Oh, it's extremely simple.

This is called a Reishi Locking Device.

It halts the activity of Reishi that it comes in contact with

for a preset amount of time.

It wasn't that they took a long time to become bombs.

They became bombs upon impact.

The device simply paused the effect for three seconds.

It's an extremely simple mechanism.

And with this simple mechanism,

I completely subdued that zombie girl's attack.

Now the two of you can become my lovely test subjects.

The two of us?

Which two are you referring to?

Those are...!

If you've been watching me, you'd know

I've been creating zombies from the moment I got here.

I recognize several faces.

Damn it...!

My, oh my, this is a problem.

They may be zombies,

but they were once members of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads.

And I am basically one big ball of love...

with a spinal cord growing from it.

I just don't have the heart to fight them.

I have no other choice.

I'll need someone with no attachments...

like these Arrancars, to take care of the fight.

Hey...

I remember that guy.

We fought him once in the World of the Living.

Yeah? Well, I swore... I killed that guy before.

Hmm?!

Who's that fugly one down there?

Could it be...?

– Fugly?! – Yu...

mi...

– Fugly?! – chi...

Sorry, forgot the rest!

Oh, that's right...

I'm bad at remembering the names of fugly people!

Fine...!

Then let me kill you again so you'll remember!

Hey, hold on, Yumichika. Don't be reckless!

Where's the niño?

I came because I was told

that the orange-haired niño would be here!

And I came to see that four-eyed Quincy!

To make him pay for what he did to me!

Aw man, shut up!

We're alive again,

so we'll get our chance to make good on our goals soon enough.

– What a hassle. – How can you be so calm?!

We may be alive again,

but who knows when that madman will change his mind

and try to kill us!

Who gave you permission to yap away?

Not only are they durable, but they scream with such vigor.

What a delight.

It was well worth

stealing you from Szayelaporro's vault.

Not me, though.

Mwah!

I see...

You got yourself your own zombies.

So what?

You think you can beat my zombies...

with just your four zombies?

I'm being told I can't win, but is that so?

You've got a lot of cheek, niña.

There is no way that...

...we'd lose to the Soul Reapers!

W-Wait!

Most of those guys belong to Squad 11...!

So what?

That is a very uncharacteristic remark to hear

from the infamous Squad 11.

In fact... to plead for the lives of your men in this situation

is very unlike the Thirteen Court Guard Squad.

"Protect the Seireitei."

Since when has the Court Guards gone so soft?

"A squad member shall die in the Court Guard."

"If one harms the Court Guard, one shall take one's own life."

Those were the words of a man you respected:

your former Head Captain.

There's no need to avoid their blood.

That baldy was splashed with blood earlier,

but he didn't become a zombie.

Well, we were dead to begin with.

I don't think anything will happen to us, though, right?

I see. Makes sense!

That means I can fight...

without any reservations!

Ai yai yai...

This has turned into a real mess.

Here, Bambi.

Put this back on.

So you're the one who's fighting me?

Not the glowing guy over there?

Yes... My instincts are telling me to fight you.

Because you and I are very much alike.

How so?!

Bambi!

Oh, yeah...

I don't need to draw my sword to deal with a baby like you.

Too bad you couldn't hit me.

Wrong!

My hand slipped!

Oh, you're still kicking, I see.

Since you're a zombie,

does that mean you won't die unless I turn you into dust?

Special Kill!

Beautiful Charlotte Chuhlhourne's Final Holy

Wonderful Pretty Super Magnum Sexy Sexy Glamorous Cero Revived!

Wow... He's strong.

Looks like Bambi is no match for him...

Fine...

You can come out now!

Mr. Captain!

I see...

This may be troublesome...

All at once, the lights went out

Reminding me

with a voice

and I cannot move

Unable to convey even a millimeter

of the lines that I dubbed

All lines that I don't want to forget

Rewound

Repeated

Became a mark

And I notice the dust

I wait and wait

But it won't start

If it's already ended

I give up

But can I

borrow your shoulder?

With that knife

that was left behind

Pierce it through

Still

in the middle of a dream,

We kept searching

For the scar that

the revolving world remembers

With just the strong desire

to keep on living

We'll choose a tomorrow that will not return

In just a little while

The final curtain will fall

Shining upon us

The blurred end roll

"Over and over again, an empty life."
