Chapter 5

Objective sighted to the northeast.

Pursue them. Shuhei and I will cut them off. Depending on your distance from the objective, you are free to use your Bakudo at will.

And don't forget to shoot down any targets you spot on the way.

Understood.

Bakudo 4: Hainawa!

Not on my watch!

Captain Ukitake!

I didn't think you'd find the Secret Remote Unit member so quickly and keep up with them for this long. You three are quite the team.

I see why you're here now. You must be our obstacle.

That's right. I'm your opponent for this test. Oh, and one other thing.

If a Soul Reaper assigned as an obstacle happens to hit any targets during the battle, those points will be deducted from your score!

What? What are we going to do, Captain Kuchiki?

I'll keep Jushiro occupied. You two, continue to pursue the objective.

Oh, and you think that'll be as simple as it sounds, do you?

Bakudo 62: Hyapporankan!

I have captured the objective!

Excellent work.

I admit, it was certainly a challenge to try stopping you two while occupied with Byakuya. You all showed excellent coordination.

However, you did hit several targets.

Oh, please. I didn't hit that many, and you still managed to secure the Secret Remote Unit member. That more than cancels out the targets I hit, I'm sure!

Kiyone. Sentaro.

We've reached the end of the Kido tournament. Please give everyone the signal to finish.

Come! It's time for the awards ceremony!
