9-5 The Strongest Soul Reapers Assemble

It's too bad, but I just don't have a use for you anymore, Rukia Kuchiki.

Kill her, Gin.

Well, if I must.

Shoot to kill, Shinso!

Oh no... Brother!

Ugh...ugh...

Byakuya!

Byakuya... Why? Why did you...protect me?

This is another face I haven't seen for quite some time.

Don't do it. If you even move so much as a muscle...

...then we're going to cut off your head.

Yes, I can see that.

Well, that sure was flashy.

What should I do?

You shouldn't even move.

Sorry, Captain Aizen. I got caught.

This is the end.

What? Did you say something?

Don't you understand, Aizen?

There is no place left for you, no place you can escape to.

I'm sorry to do this,

but the time has come.

That's not... It's impossible!

That light is a weapon with the name of "Negación." It's a technique the Menos use when they are rescuing their fellow Hollows.

Once enveloped by that light, it is impossible for those within and without to interact. It is an isolated world inside the beams.

From the moment that light fell on Sosuke Aizen, it became completely impossible for us to reach him.

Well, that's a bit of a let-down. I was enjoying that. I wouldn't have minded being your captive a little longer. So long, Rangiku. Maybe next time.

Kaname! Come back, Kaname! Where is your sense of justice now? Because I don't see it!

I thought I'd made it clear to you - my eyes can only see one path, and that is the path with the least amount of blood. Justice is always there.

And the path I follow is justice.

Ah... Kaname.

You've joined with the Menos. Why would you want to do that?

Have you become that corrupt? Have you?!

You're blinded by your self-righteousness.

From the beginning, no one has ever stood at the top. Neither you, nor me, nor the gods.

But soon, that unattainable vacancy at the top will be filled.

From now on, I alone will stand at the top.

Goodbye, Soul Reapers. And goodbye, Ryoka boy.

Even I have to admit that for a human, you are quite amusing.
