Part 13: The Lost Agent Vol. 2, 3-4

Hahahahahahahaha!

Ginjo... Why? Was it because of Tsukishima's power?

It sure was. It was definitely because of Tsukishima's power.

But you need to understand something. I didn't become your enemy just now when you saw Tsukishima cut me.

I let Tsukishima cut me twice so I could return to my original self.

Now, your Fullbring is mine!

(Now I remember...everything.)

Dammit!

Oh dear.

One of Ichigo's friends, right? I think it would have been much easier if I'd cut him with my Fullbring instead.

What are you talking about? He's going to be the key to everything. Kurosaki's fate depends on whether he's able to notice the difference between what happened to this guy, and what's going to happen to our next targets.

Think about it. It won't be any fun if the game is fixed so we can't lose.

All right, then. Hurry up and cut me. Once this is finished, you and I will appear to have become enemies who betrayed each other.

You're determined to do this. I guess I have no choice.

That's how we got here.

Like I said, Book of the End allows me to insert my existence into a person's past in any way, shape, or form.

But if I cut that person again, they return to normal.

As we laid out our plan, I realized I would be the one working closest to you.

So I had Tsukishima slip his existence into my past as an enemy so you'd believe I was on your side.

Good, here it comes.

My Fullbring... It's gone.

I wanted to regain my power, but I couldn't figure out a way to do that on my own.

I just had to tolerate my condition.

Powerless...

...for 17 months.

I thought I'd finally found a way. I thought I could finally protect everyone with my own hands.

But now...

...it's all gone.

He's gotten very emotional. I almost feel sorry.

Just let him cry. We have no use for him anymore. And to be perfectly honest, we probably won't see him again.

Give it back. My power... Give it back to me, Ginjo.

What are you babbling about? The only reason you got your power back at all was because of me. Now I'm through giving you things.

And even though I'm done with you, I'm not gonna kill you. All things considered, you should be thanking me.

Ginjo!

Dad... Kisuke...?

No... So that's it, then? He played with your memories and changed you too?

You idiot. I'm not holding the sword.

Look behind you. Open your mind and you'll see. You should be able to see who it is now.

Rukia...?

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

Rukia.

Hi.
