Kisuke

Ah, welcome back! So? How did it go?

Yoruichi

Got 'em.

Kisuke

I knew you would!

Ichigo

What are those?

Yoruichi

These are the distortions that they've been creating, the Quincies.

Kisuke

Here, take a look. We first started noticing these distortions shortly before the Wandenreich launched their invasion.

Hiyori

See that gaping hole? That's what's called a distortion!

Chad

The surrounding area appears warped.

Kisuke

Exactly. The distortion is acting like a wedge, disrupting the border between the World of the Living and the Soul Society, causing the two worlds to interconnect.

Ichigo

Okay, but then, what purpose does that serve?

Kisuke

I wish I could tell you, but we haven't quite come up with the answer to that one.

Of more immediate interest is the energy contained in these distortions. After all, to be powerful enough to connect two worlds, we're talking about a massive concentration of energy.

Ichigo

Massive energy, huh? Is that what we're gonna use to fire the cannon?

Kisuke

Anticipating just this sort of situation, I've had Yoruichi, Hiyori and the others go around collecting as much of the distortion energy as they can.

Yoruichi

He's been working us all to the bone, the tyrant.

Kisuke

Okay. Shall we give it a try?
