Shuhei

Huh?!

The pillar... It's coming down!

Yumichika

Ikkaku!

Shuhei

Stop it. How are you gonna be able to win against an opponent who defeated Ikkaku?

Yumichika

I'll just have to find a way! Let me go!

Huh?

Izuru

He's very disrespectful for a fifth seat.

I know he's upset, but he still has to control himself.

Shuhei

Izuru.

Izuru

I just put him to sleep. He'll be fine.

More than that, if one of the pillars was destroyed, then...

Shuhei

It's a Tensokaiki. With the pillar destroyed, the real Karakura Town is starting to reappear!

Izuru

This is bad. We've got to stop that process somehow!

Choe Neng Poww

If you want to live, show me the power you're hiding.

Ikkaku

I have no such thing, believe me. And even if I did have it, I wouldn't be wasting it on somebody as weak and insignificant as you!

Choe Neng Poww

Is that so? Goodbye, you pest.

Goh!

Ikkaku

Huh?

Captain Komamura!

Sajin

Tetsuzaemon!

Tetsuzaemon

Right!

Hmph!

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

Tetsuzaemon

That should stop the reversion. They're made for emergencies, and as long as you don't break them, they should be alright.

Choe Neng Poww

Nuhahahahahaha!

I really felt that one, Soul Reaper. Or should I be saying...nice one, little doggy.

Anyway, it was a good punch. Not as good as mine.

See, this is what I call a real punch!

Sajin

Urgh!

Tetsuzaemon

Captain Komamura!

Choe Neng Poww

But as long as we happen to be on the subject, let me demonstrate my best punch. I'm sure you'll find this interesting.

Breathe, Calderon!

Tetsuzaemon

Wha... Huh?!

What the hell is that?!

Ikkaku

So, you've finally shown your true form.

Well, the bigger they are, the harder they fall!

What?!

Tetsuzaemon

Shut your mouth! You're no match for an adversary who was able to send the captain flying with a single punch!

Ikkaku

Huh?! Wait a minute. When did you turn into such a little coward?!

Tetsuzaemon

I'm not even gonna dignify that with an answer!

Sajin

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

Tetsuzaemon

Captain!

Sajin

Do not retreat, Tetsuzaemon.

Ever!

Stand behind me while we end this fight.

Tetsuzaemon

Sir!

3. After the battle

Choe Neng Poww

Hmhmhm, hahahaha!

I have a surprise for you, pesky insect. That had no effect!

But, I will say this much. I was surprised at the extent of your strength.

It's so unbelievable, it just makes me want to yawn.

Sajin

Unfortunate.

Allow me to shut your mouth so this doesn't happen again.

Bankai!

Kokujo Tengen Myo-Oh!

Choe Neng Poww

What?

What the hell? It can't be!

Wait a minute. Something's wrong here. This is impossible! Who are you?

Sajin

Oh, you're right. I guess I forgot to identify myself.

My name is Sajin Komamura, and I am the captain of Soul Reaper Squad 7.

And ashamed as I am, I have to admit you were right.

I am nothing but a lowly maggot.
