Bleach Chapter 382. The United Front (Discordeque Mix)
As Ichigo and Unohana continue through the Garganta, Unohana asks to take the lead as the path Ichigo is making is rough and unstable. Ichigo marvels at how nice the path Unohana is making and comments on that must be what Captain Class reiatsu can do. Unohana tells him that they both have captain level reiatsu but it would appear that even at full strength Ichigo's reiatsu is rough and not suitable for this kind of manipulation. Ichigo protests and informs her that his reiatsu is not at full strength, saying that if it was then he would be better at making the path. Unohana disbelieves him at first but Ichigo explains that his Shihakusho becomes part of his Bankai when he releases and therefore, restores itself when he is at maximum reiatsu. Most of the time when Orihime heals him, his Shihakusho restores to full to. However, this time it did not and when Ichigo questioned Orihime about it, Orihime told him that she can restore physical injuries really quickly but that it takes her longer to restore reiatsu. Because Ichigo was in a hurry since Rukia and the others were getting beaten-up by Yammy, Ichigo came down from the dome before Inoue could heal his reiatsu. Ichigo goes onto explain that the proportion of his robes left is how much of his reiatsu he currently has access to.
Unohana is shocked, noting that Ichigo's Shihakusho isn't even half what it normally is, admitting that she misjudged that reiatsu to be his maximum and at par with that of a captain. She then asks Ichigo to take the lead again, informing him that she will restore his reiatsu to the full during kido while they are running. Ichigo asks if this is indeed possible to do while they are moving but Unohana assures him that it is. Saying that when healing with kido, the reiatsu is healed first so that the healer can use both the patients reiatsu and their own reiatsu to heal the physical body. Restoring reiatsu when the physical body is complete healed is very easy. Unohana goes on to think that if Ichigo's reiatsu really is only at half strength, then Ichigo may well become a genuine trump card.
Meanwhile in Heuco Mundo, Kenpachi manages to down Yammy and tells Byakuya to finished Yammy off as dealing the deathblow to a weakling is not Kenpachi's style. Kenpachi starts to get angry but Yammy resurfaces and lets out a powerful cero. Kenpachi comments that it would appear that Yammy still had some strength left in him, Byakuya agrees and berates Kenpachi for his woeful judgement. Kenpachi says that for him, Yammy is at deathblow stage but taunts Byakuya that it would appear that Yammy is too much for him. Byakuya releases Bankai and warns Kenpachi that he will confirm with his own flesh if it is too much for Byakuya or not. Kenpachi confesses that he has always wanted to fight Byakuya. Yammy appears between them but they both tell Yammy that he is in the way and attack him together. Thus bringing the chapter to an end.
Bleach Episode 246:
Special Mission! Rescue Captain-Commander Yamamoto!
Byakuya Kuchiki recognizes Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto inside the barrier. Muramasa tells him that the people floating above the barrier are three Zanpakutō, who are equal in strength to Yamamoto and have been maintaining the barrier for some time. Byakuya approaches the barrier, interfering with the flow of the Zanpakutō spirits' Reiatsu causing flames to escape from the barrier. Ichigo Kurosaki reflects on Byakuya's betrayal as Yoruichi Shihōin informs the others of a location where she sensed the Reiatsu of the Captain-Commander. Unwilling to wait around any longer, Jūshirō Ukitake, Shunsui Kyōraku, Kenpachi Zaraki, Yachiru Kusajishi, Ichigo and Yoruichi decide to go on the offensive.
In the Zanpakutō's hideout, some of the spirits are gathered, idly talking amongst themselves when Kazeshini limps into the cave and collapses. Muramasa returns from Yamamoto's prison and tells Kazeshini to rest until his injuries have healed. Kazeshini asks him about his freeing of the Zanpakutō to follow their instincts, and why Byakuya is there. Muramasa thanks the remaining Zanpakutō spirits for helping to protect Byakuya, saying that he has done something to aid his goals, and that the Shinigami will not be able to act as long as Yamamoto is their prisoner.
Meanwhile, the Shinigami have arrived at the entrance to a cave from which they sense the Captain-Commander. Yoruichi warns that the cave is like a maze, and that the Zanpakutō spirits have been using another entrance to the same cave system. Zaraki enters the cave and the other captains quickly follow. While Zaraki struggles in the darkness, Yoruichi and Ichigo use a different, flooded entrance. As they leap from one stalagmite to another, Ichigo asks Yoruichi about Byakuya's motives. When Yoruichi replies that she does not know what he is doing, Ichigo is surprised and falls into the water. While Yoruichi tries to reassure him, she is attacked by Haineko and Tobiume, but she quickly defeats the two Zanpakutō. She tells Ichigo to go on ahead, and that he can do what he wishes after the Captain-Commander is freed.
Ukitake and Kyōraku are confronted by their own Zanpakutō as they explore the caves, while Zaraki is stopped by Tenken and Gonryōmaru. Ichigo, meanwhile, encounters Minazuki, who retreats. Ichigo pursues, but is attacked by Kazeshini. Ichigo uses his Bankai to defeat him. Ichigo apologizes to Shūhei Hisagi for destroying his Zanpakutō, and continues towards the Captain-Commander. Ichigo finds Yamamoto and attempts to approach him, but is burnt by the barrier. Ichigo prepares to destroy the barrier.
