After Ichigo and his four companions infiltrate Las Noches, they head off in separate directions, only to each be confronted by an Arrancar blocking their path.

The one who stood before Chad was...

Gantenbainne

You are completely loco, man. There's no way you could ever be a match for me.

I am Arrancar number 107, Gantenbainne Mosqueda.

Chad

Ngh?

Gantenbainne

Get on your feet, Yasutora Sado. Get up right now. I know what you're doing, hiding your power. The true strength you possess.

Yes, you are very strong. Someone like you shouldn't be fighting like this.

Chad

Sorry... In truth, I wasn't trying to hide it.

From the moment that I came to Hueco Mundo, it felt as if my inner power suddenly began to stir.

Then, when I was hit by your attack, I suddenly felt it settle. I thought that maybe that stirring was anticipation.

But ever since arriving in Hueco Mundo, my power stirred with excitement, as if it had come home. It felt like a rough welcome, and the thing inside me suddenly realized what it was.

There's something I've been wondering about ever since the moment I gained this power. I thought to myself, if my power's not like that of the Soul Reapers or Quincies, then what exactly am I?

The questioning is done. I've found my answer. I know why I'm not like them. I'm different from Soul Reapers and Quincies.

My powers are closer to that of Hollows.

Gantenbainne

Huh?!

Chad

Brazo Derecho Del Gigante. This is my right arm's true form.

And...

...it's true power.

Chad

This arm has gone through a metamorphosis and become my right arm's true form. I know, without a doubt in my mind, that the spirit of my Abuelo resides within this arm.

Abuelo taught me how to use power, and to wield my strength to protect others.

Abuelo was right. I didn't understand at first, but ever since I gained the power that lay dormant in my right arm, I knew my purpose.

Gantenbainne

............

Chad

It was during my training. I looked deep into the core of my being, and it was there that I found it. It was my defensive power.

This is it... This is Diablo.

Brazo Izquierdo Del Diablo.

Gantenbainne

Diablo, is it? That's a pretty pretentious name!

Isn't it, Yasutora Sado?!

Chad

La Muerte.

Gantenbainne

Ngh?!

Chad

I was able to grasp my power because you fought me at full strength, Gantenbainne.

Thank you. Because of you, I will survive all of the battles that are in my future.

I'll leave you alive... Good luck, Arrancar.
