Woke up with yawning, it's dawning
I'm still alive
Turned on my radio To start up new day
As goddamned D.J. chattered
How to survive
Amazing news got over On that air wave
Tonight, Love is rationed
Tonight, Across the nation
Tonight Love reflects world wide
Almost another day
She's a sh**ting star
Good-night, good-night
She's a sh**ting star
Good-bye…
Tonight, Love is rationed
Tonight, Across the nation
Tonight Love reflects world wide
Almost another day
See you some other day
We shall now commence our regular captains' meeting.
We have confirmed infiltration by ryoka.
Here are my commands…
First, all squads are to take position in second-class alert.
Next, in light of the seriousness of this situation,
as a special measure…
Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya of Squad
will be responsible for the ryokas' capture.
Yes! But…
The information is convoluted…
At the moment, there is also a problem with information leaking
from the Department of Research and Development.
Put together the correct data and send it to every squad.
Be thorough.
Yes!
Finally, and this is most important…
Anyone who meets a ryoka is to k*ll him without hesitation!
Hey! It's coming this way!
Have any of the squads left yet?
Lieutenant Omaeda of Squad left with some squad members!
Any others?
Squad ’s Lieutenant Iba also headed to the Rukon District!
All right! Keep gathering information!
We'll gather all reports from all the squads!
Don't let any information leak!
Yes!
It sure is quiet…
Well, it'll get loud soon…
There they are!
I'm first!
No, I'm first!
You're taking us on in broad daylight. You've got some guts…
Kariya, can you leave this to me?
Yeah, this is perfect… Test it out.
Zeig dih, Dalk!
Hi! How are you?!
Oh my. The air here is delicious…
It feels good!
Oh? Bounts sure use strange techniques…
Humph. You wimp! Can't you fight with your own power?!
That bastard is absorbing reishi?!
Who are you?!
Don't look at me as if I'm some monster…
I'm still human.
Just better than your average human.
Get him!
Dalk, crush them!
All right!
I'm feeling really good too!
Hey!
How dare you underestimate us!
Hey! Isn't there anyone else?!
I've become really strong!
Someone, save me!
That's no good… It's just a waste of your strength…
Omaeda!
I don't like attacking people who are unarmed,
but I have no choice!
What?!
You call yourself a Soul Reaper?
Know…your place!
How do you feel?
This is great…
There's an unlimited amount of highly pure reishi here.
I see… Then let's go…
Call the Med Crew!
Yes!
Everyone else, to defensive positions.
Ascertain the extent of the damage!
Lieutenant Omaeda! Get a hold of yourself!
Captain Hitsugaya! It's Squad 's Lieutenant Iba!
Is he all right?
Thankfully he's conscious!
Captain!
Sorry I'm late. I've just returned.
Matsumoto…
I'm very sorry… I couldn't complete my mission.
I allowed the ryoka to invade Soul Society…
I'm the one who dispatched you…
I'm responsible. Don't worry about it…
Yes…
What have you found out?
I don't have anything to report…
But…It is difficult to pinpoint the location of the Bounts.
Even now, the only Spiritual Pressure that could be detected
was that of the two Lieutenants…
Tsk--! This is troublesome…
We will continue the investigation!
Yes!
Matsumoto, welcome back to the squad!
Yes!
We're back again…
Yes…
Did you sense that Spiritual Pressure earlier?
Yeah, it seemed like some Soul Reaper was fighting the Bounts.
But you didn't sense the Bounts' Spiritual Pressure, did you?
It's the same as the World of the Living, huh?
Why are you in deep thought?
This is an emergency situation…
That's right! That shot of both of you from behind.
Ugh…how disgusting! You're not lovers!
What are you talking about, Lirin?!
Humph! I don't know why, but it feels bad!
Now now, calm down. We'll lose to the Bounts if we fight!
That's right.
I don't care!
Kurosaki! Kuchiki! Bad news, bad news!
What's wrong?
She moved.
Huh?
Kukaku loves to move, as usual…
Yoruichi, do you know where she moved to?
I think I have a feeling where she might be…
There she is!
We finally found her!
How nostalgic…
You think so?
Yeah…
That's odd…
She always changes its design when she moves, but…
As usual, she displays her complete lack of aesthetic vision…
Just like your pictures…
Silence!
Ow! This is usually Kon's role…
Hm? Where did Kon go off to?
Huh?!
Wha-?! Come to think of it, he isn't here…
That's odd… I was sure he came with us to this world…
What? Kon is lost?
What should we do? Should we search for him?
Well, he'll be all right!
He's bursting with energy!
Yes.
That's right.
This voice!
Ichigo--! Sister--!
What is this?!
We came all this way to the ends of the earth!
Who got lost?!
Me! Crap!
This place has been sealed! You can't enter!
What's this?
Hello?
What happened?
What's this?!
There's a strange small animal!
Huh?! Huh?!
This has got to be a monster!
Y-You're mistaken! I'm a Mod Soul…
What's that?
That strange small animal has got to be the one
that destroyed this house!
I-I wouldn't do that!
Or rather, I can't do that!
Catch him!
I won't die here!
I'm going to live! I'm going to live!
I won't lose!
GUY BURSTING WITH ENERGY
You idiot!
It hurts, it hurts!
Yoruichi told me that there was something strange…
happening in the World of the Living.
So I dispatched you there
because I thought you could be of some use to her!
It's just like you said!
And you say you forgot because you were occupied
with your job at the convenience store?
Are you kidding me?!
You're the same as always…
Sorry, I couldn't be of any help…
You know what convenience stores are?
Is that a problem?
Huh?
Bastard… You were making fun of me!
No, I wasn't…
I'm in a really bad mood right now!
Ichigo, don't say unnecessary things!
Wh-What did I say?!
I'm going to straighten you both out!
Get over here!
Kukaku…
Your mouth can get you into trouble…
And?
The man called Kariya, the leader of the Bounts…
said that he was going to have revenge on Soul Society…
The old Department of Research and Development created them…
Despite that, there is almost no record of them in Soul Society…
What do you mean?!
“Put a lid on anything that stinks…”
That’s what probably happened…
I don't know how the Bounts are going to get their revenge…
But you probably already know that it won't be easy
to get into Seireitei since it's surrounded by a wall…
So you want to investigate
what they are thinking and what they're doing?
Yeah.
Sorry… I know that there are a lot of people,
but for the time being, could you let us stay here?
The Rukon District is big.
But it'll be somewhat easy to move if we stay here.
Koganehiko! Shiroganehiko! Are we good with food?
With our body and soul put into it…!
We can feed up to thirty people!
All right… In a way, the Bounts were allowed to invade…
because of my stupid younger brother's mismanagement…
Wh-Why?! Big Sis, I didn't…
Yes… It's all my fault…
It's a cramped house, but use it as you like!
By the way, how are you going to find these Bounts?
– Tada! – Tada!
Leave that to us!
What are these strange things?
They're Mod Souls that Urahara created
to detect the Bounts' Spiritual Pressure.
Ooh…
Mod Souls, huh?!
I never would have thought of putting them in a doll…
I expected Urahara to do something interesting.
No…well…
That's not something to be surprised about!
One more thing…
I have something to ask of everyone…
What is it?
Could you collect information on someone called Rantao?
Rantao? Who's that?
Yeah… Ichigo…
Kariya told you about the history of the Bounts’ appearance, didn't he?
The lead researcher who created the Bounts long ago.
That's Rantao.
What?!
Are you saying that this person called Rantao is still alive?!
Yes…
It's been more than , years since he was expelled from Seireitei…
But it's been rumored that he lives in the depths of Rukon District…
All right! Then we may be able to learn something about the Bounts
if we meet this guy.
Yeah…
All right! Then let's have dinner!
Koganehiko! Shiroganehiko! You're ready aren't you?!
Yes!
This way to the dining room!
Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything for a while.
I'm hungry.
Sorry for the trouble.
Yoruichi…
What is it?
Do you have anything else to tell me?
About what?
Don't play dumb…
Tell me everything you know.
Why aren’t you going to Seireitei?
It's not just because it's convenient here, is it?
There's a Soul Reaper who's aiding the Bounts…
He not only has the ability to hide his Spiritual Pressure…
But he has the power to turn invisible.
He's already broken into Seireitei.
Oh?
There's no mistake in assuming that this Soul Reaper, Ichinose,
sealed the database…
of the archives in the Department of Research and Development.
And he probably manipulated the data…
so Mayuri Kurotsuchi would become interested in the Bounts…
Kurotsuchi fell for a simple trick…
He prepared the Quincy power and called the Bounts to Soul Society…
I see… In other words…
You've chosen to hide somewhere where that guy, Ichinose,
can't predict your movements…
Soi Fon is secretly strengthening Seireitei's security, but…
Taking into consideration everything that happened…
It would probably be difficult to stop him from breaking in.
Probably…
Also, I'm someone who once left Soul Society…
It's too much of a pain to enter Seireitei after all this time…
If anything, I'd say that's the real reason…
I'm just going to do things my way…
Can we win?
I don't know…
Well, that's fine.
I love trouble!
KUKAKU SHIBA
I'll help you out!
Thanks…
We'll split up from here.
Use Lirin, Kurodo, and Noba to search for the Bounts.
Whoever finds them will inform everyone with weak Spiritual Pressure.
Is that clear?!
Yes.
Rukia, what are you going to do?
Now that I've returned, I have to return to my own squad.
I'm quite late, but I'm going now.
I see. All right.
Don't do anything rash, Ichigo…
Yeah…
How silly!
Huh?
I'm going to find the Bounts first!
I'm not going to lose to the likes of… to the likes of Rukia!
I won't lose!
What's…with her?
This is a form of jealousy…
Yeah…
Jeez, I don't know what she's thinking…
Of who?
No, well…
Hey, Ishida!
There's no time to waste.
I'll search for them by myself.
Leave me alone for a moment…
Ishida!
I'm all right…
All right, Kurodo!
Yes!
Take care of Inoue!
Just leave it to me!
Inoue, don't push yourself too much.
I know.
All right!
Let's go!
The dustiness of Rukon District hasn't changed at all…
Aw…jeez!
Why am I so pissed off?!
I'm so pissed off about being pissed! Jeez!
This presence…
They're here!
Hey!
You!
You again…
What a coincidence…
Well, that's fine…
Zeig dih, Nieder!
Don't wanna lose! Don't wanna cry!
'Cuz I wanna keep laughing! MOVIN'! MOVIN'!

Lying around, dozing as usual Flipping through nothing but manga books

Being kind to others, and also to myself
But I get things done when I need to (Really?)
Now then, come with me (Can I trust you?)
Trust me or not, you won't really know until you give it a try
I mean, wouldn't you rather trust and laugh together?

Are you in charge of Bount countermeasures?
Who are you?
I'm Lirin. A Mod Soul.
An expert at tracking Bounts!
– Is that true? – Unfortunately it's true.
If you want, I'll lend her to Squad .
No, I'll pass. I have a bad feeling about her.
How insulting!
The Illustrated Guide to Soul Reapers Golden after these messages!
– Illustrated Guide to Soul Reapers! – Golden!
Hanataro! What happened to that kid?!
Oh, Renji! He's all right!
He's out of danger!
I see. Thank goodness…
Where is everyone?
In Soul Society!
You sure are kind, Renji.
You came all this way to check on him…
Yeah, that's one thing, but…
I came because I was told to clean up before I leave…
– What?! – Quickly…
I won't lose--!
