3-3 End of All Bonds

Tsukishima!

What is it?

Is this getting to you? I see you're so angry you can barely even speak to me.

Getsugatensho!

(He's in Fullbring mode, yet he was able to unleash Getsugatensho.)

(Not only that, but the speed of his attacks are several times faster than I had expected.)

(He really has succeeded in combining his Soul Reaper powers with Fullbring.)

(And as I thought it would, despair helped fuel the completion of his power.)

Well, okay.

It's time to put the finishing touches on this.

Hrahhhh!!!

Why're you two protecting him? Please, stop! Orihime, Chad!

I say the same to you. Come back to your senses, Ichigo!

Don't you get it? I only came here to fight Tsukishima, not you!

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

Come out! Stop hiding behind my friends, you bastard! Get out here and fight your own battle!

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

Damn it...

Ginjo!

(What'll happen next?)

(Will Ginjo end up like all the others? Will he suddenly side with Tsukishima?)

Ginjo! Hey, Ginjo! Are you all right?!

Pipe down, will ya? Right now, you really need to stop focusing on me, Kurosaki.

Think only about what I said earlier. If Tsukishima blindsides you, you're done!

So, are you sure you're all right?

I don't know.

But at the moment, I still consider Tsukishima to be my enemy. And I still see you as a friend.

Yeah? That's good to know.

I could feel that he cut me pretty good. But for some reason, his power didn't work.

Could it be that the time his power needs to take effect varies? Or maybe he hasn't used his full power yet, but I'm not sure how we'll be able to tell.

Whatever's going on here, we have to defeat him now while we can...

...because if his powers do take effect, there won't be a thing we can do to stop him.

Right.

Ichigo.

Uryu...

(Whose side is he on? After all, Uryu was also cut down by Tsukishima. And who healed his wounds? Was it Orihime?)

(But she was cut down by Tsukishima as well. So did she go heal Uryu before or after she thought of Tsukishima as her friend?)

(If it was after, does that mean she healed Uryu so he could join Tsukishima's army and fight me along with everyone else?)

(So Uryu... Which is it?!)

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

So then... You're one of them too, huh, Uryu?!

Ichigo, come over here. I saw what's going on down here. Relax, I'm on your side.

Oh, really?

Come on. You need to move, now!

Uryu.

Ichigo! Don't you get it?!

The guy who attacked me is standing right behind you!

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

Hahahaha... Hahahaha!

No!
