1. Before the battle
14 linesHmm... This must be Ichigo Kurosaki, huh?
The Soul King ordered us to come and start rebuilding the 13 Court Guard Squads.
And the first order of business is to take Ichigo back up with us.
You gotta be kidding!
The "great" Squad Zero, huh? Cooling your heels up in the sky while the Seireitei was being destroyed! And now you think you can just come floating down here and pick up the pieces?!
What is this, some kind of joke?!
Right, well, anyway, as I was saying, our orders are to...
Hey!
...!
Shut up, willya?
(What kind of move was that?!)
The only joke around here is you. The 13 Court Guard Squads... Remind me what your job even is?
I know our job's to protect the Royal Palace. I always thought your job was to protect the Seireitei.
What kind of Court Guard goes crying for help after failing at the one job they've got? You're not even worthy of the name.
2. After the battle
9 linesHey, watch the hair!
I told you to save all that for later. Let's just finish gathering up what we came here to get.
No need.
I took care of it. Everything else on the list of things we were sent to get is right here.
That means the only one remaining is you, Ichigo Kurosaki.
Not possible. The three people you're holding in those spheres are in absolutely no condition to leave the Seireitei right now. I cannot allow you to take them with you.
Their "condition" is the reason we're taking them with us.
Hey, you know as well as anyone, you haven't got the healing chops to make those three rookies well again.
You know it's true, don't you, Retsu. Besides, you have more important things than healing to be focused on right now.
