2-4 Toshiro Enraged

Ichigo Kurosaki.

Thank you, by the way. If you hadn't jumped in and attacked Aizen when you did...

...I would have lunged at him in a fit of uncontrollable rage, and I would be dead.

So, thank you.

Man, Ichigo.

Why didn't you bring Orihime with you when you came for this fight? I mean, doesn't it make perfect sense? If she was here, she could have healed all our injuries.

Then we would have been in great shape to help you take on Sosuke.

Hirako...

But, you did bring back Captain Unohana, who's more experienced, so I have to give you credit for that.

Now that I think about it, it was definitely the right choice for this battle.

Lisa, Rose, Love...

Let's go.

How long are you going to just stand there?

They can only create an opening for an instant. You need to take advantage of that opportunity.

Don't assume that we're prepared to die in this battle. We're actually fighting for our survival.

Saving the world puts a nice gloss on the mission.

Don't fall behind, Ichigo Kurosaki. You're the key to this battle.

Hold on! I'm coming too! Wait for me, Captain!

(That's right. What is there for me to worry about? The Visoreds and the captains are behind me.)

(I have to believe in them. They're committed to this battle. They'll be there if I need them!)

Aizen, I heard what you said to Ichigo. That he can't defeat you while fighting out of a sense of responsibility.

I want to explain something to you.

The only time a captain ever swings his sword is when it is clearly his duty.

Swinging a sword out of hatred is nothing more than mindless violence. There is no honor in such behavior.

Aizen, your words and actions prove that you were never worthy of being a captain.

How interesting.

You hate me more than any other captain in the 13 Court Guard Squads. I never expected you to make such a statement.

Can you honestly say you're not directing hatred at me with your sword right now?

How rude.

I'm talking right now, Captain Kyoraku.

I'm not very good at listening to men carry on.

The fact is, I usually find them quite boring.

Bankai!

Daiguren Hyorinmaru!

I guess what you said earlier was right. This sword is filled with hatred. Hatred of you!

I realize now, I didn't come here to fight you. I came here to destroy you and end your terror!

It's all over, Aizen.

Kh...

Gr...hh...

They did it!

They sure did.

The captains, they finally did it!

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

Oh, wow. I'm surprised you're able to sit up. I'm amazed.

Momo?

Hey, wait. Where exactly are you going, Momo?

How 'bout that?

We finally turned this thing around.

Hey, guys?!

Hold on. What the hell are you guys doing?!

Momo?!

But how?!

When did you do it?

A good question. So, when did I do it?

My Kyoka Suigetsu's power is complete hypnosis, so I have the ability to alter your perception of what's real. It's so overpowering it can control all five of your senses and lead people to hallucinate all sorts of strange things.

Shut up. I know that! I'm asking you when you used your Kyoka Suigetsu!

So here's a question for you.

Now, consider this. At what time did you think that I wasn't using my Kyoka Suigetsu?

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

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!

Captain! Control yourself!!!

Gh!

I won't kill you.

Your powers will allow you to remain conscious, but your wounds have been targeted specifically so you won't be able to move.

I want you to watch the outcome of this battle...

...as you lie on the ground, paralyzed, unable to do anything to affect the end result.
