2-1 Quincy Cross

Kraahhhhhhhhh!!!

It's a Hollow!

Kh-

What incredible Spiritual Pressure he has.

It doesn't matter in the end.

I may have lost my Quincy abilities, but it's not like I didn't prepare in case a Hollow attacked.

I can still fight, even with my diminished spiritual energy. I am not helpless!

My, my. How clumsy, Uryu.

So it's you...

Ryuken!

Is that any way to address your father?

You haven't changed at all, have you, son?

Kraahhhhhhhhh!!!

You're interrupting me.

Grahhh!!!

Instant regeneration isn't really all that impressive.

It just means you have to put them away before they can do it.

Wait, what is going on?

I thought you gave them up before, so why do you have Quincy powers now?

You told me they were worthless and that you didn't want to be associated with them.

You rejected your Quincy powers long ago, back when I was still a child.

You're a fool, son. I chose my words wisely.

What I said was that I had no interest and that you had no talent for it.

Unfortunately, my powers aren't as disposable as yours. Otherwise, I would've lost them long ago.

It was me he chose.

Whether we like it or not, we can't argue with the facts.

Our ancestor, Soken Ishida needed to choose a man on whom to bequeath all of his power and skill.

Only one man is allowed to continue his legacy, to call himself the last Quincy.

The Quincy Cross!

Uryu, you weren't ready.

You went to the Soul Society before you were strong enough. Now you have lost the few powers you possessed. What a fool.

But, if you'll trust me, I have the ability to restore all your powers, everything you lost in the Soul Society.

There's no way. It can't be done.

If you really don't think I can do it, why not put me to the test?

But first, I do have one condition.

What is it?

You must swear to me you'll never associate with a Soul Reaper again.

Huh?!
