The battle between the Soul Reapers and Bounts intensifies. Kariya suddenly appears at the Department of Research and Development, where he looks for an original crest of the Bount in the bureau and interrogates Nemu.

Uryu is severely injured by Nieder's attack but tries desperately to counterattack, though his bow seems to have run out of power. Yoshi thoroughly revels in the fight in the Soul Society because she can do whatever she wants.

The Soul Reapers of Squad 10 find Koga. Hitsugaya, with all the Soul Reapers of Squad 10, use Kurahito's Bount sensor and tries to capture Koga, who flees the Seireitei.

Captain Hitsugaya has defeated Koga, leaving Jin Kariya as the last surviving Bount. When Hitsugaya returns to the Squad Ten barracks, he finds that Ichigo and his friends have made themselves at home while Uryu recovers from his fight with Yoshi.

During the battle between Jin Kariya and Rantao, Karyia learns the origin of his powers. Rantao pleads with Kariya to use the Jokai Crest to save the Bounts and he is forced to remember his lifetime of oppression and his reasons to destroy the Soul Society.

Ichigo arrives just in time, as Uryu and Rantao struggle to fend off Jin Kariya. Captain Hitsugaya and the others try to go after Ichigo, but Rantao stops them.

It has been a few days since Jin Kariya was defeated, and all of the Jokai Crests have been sealed away. Ichigo and his friends rest until the Senkaimon is prepared so that they can return to the World of the Living.
