07x08 - Ichigo vs. Grimmjow, the 11-second battle!

[bunniefuu]

The showdown with the Arrancarsis in the winter.

Ichigo, Sado, Ishida, Rukia, and Orihimeare undergoing intense training

to get as strong as possiblein what little time they have.

Meanwhile, Hitsugaya's advance troopsremain in Karakura Town

and fight the powerful Hollows who appearas they prepare for the showdown.

As that happens,the situation suddenly changes.

A signal!We've got an Arrancar signal!

What about the Gentei Kaijo?!

We've alreadyreceived permission!

What color is the signal?!

It's a crimson signal!It's an Espada!

I'm Squad Captain,Toshiro Hitsugaya!

What a coincidence...I'm also a ten!

I'm Arrancar Diez, Yammy!

Are you an Espada, too?

That's right...My name is Luppi.

My rank is Seis.

Your friends from Soul Society arestationed here for things like this!

Leave it to them!

Let go of me!

But I've been trainingfor times like this!

What good is itif I don't go!

Let him go.

Kuchiki!

The Kido Corps should beopening the gate right now!

Yes!

Oh! Wait!

I also...

You can't, Inoue!

Huh?

You don't havea Hell Butterfly.

Even if you go with methrough the Senkaimon,

you'll be sent to the Dangai,Precipice World.

I've given out orders to stabilize the wallsof the Dangai, Precipice World,

so that you can pass through it safely.

I know you're in a rush,

but it's important not tobe hasty at times like this.

Got that?

I'm going ahead.I'll be waiting for you.

Okay!

Hey. I've been looking for you,Soul Reaper.

That's my line.

I'll show you...

how much I've changedin the past month!

Bankai!

A Bankai?So what of it?

Did you forget?

Your Bankai didn't do anythingagainst me!

Did you forget?

My att*cks gave you that scarwhen I used my Bankai!

I want to ask youone thing, Grimmjow.

What happenedto your arm?

I discarded it.

It's unnecessary to k*ll youwith two arms.

I see.

Then I don't need tohold back!

If you don't want to die,then don't!

Right now, the amountof time I can maintain

a Hollow transformationis eleven seconds flat!

I have to settle thiswithin that time!

Wh-What is that?!

Sorry... I don't havetime to explain.

Getsugatensho!

What is this?

It's refreshing!

It's impossible to take on an Espadawithout using my Bankai,

even if I'm usinga Gentei Kaijo.

I told you...

You can't defeat meone-on-one.

Don't you understand?

Shut up!

Say something to him.

I'll really k*ll him.

I don't like goingtwo against one.

Oh yeah?What a bother...

Yammy!

Let me take on that kid too!

Huh?

They're all so troublesome.

Let's go four against one!

I'll release and take you allon by myself.

A Zanpakuto release...

I won't let you!

Bankai!

Daiguren Hyorinmaru!

Strangle! Trepadora!

What's wrong?

Is that the most damage your attackcan do while you're released?!

You blocked that well!

I honestly thought thatyou couldn't stop it.

I'm a little shocked.

I guess captains arepretty tough, huh?

But what ifthat att*ck just now

had beeneight times stronger?

What?

Crap...

Captain!

I told you that we shouldgo four against one.

Oh! Sorry.

It was four against eight.

Crap... Not yet?!

There it is!

Renji!

Hey, Rukia!

Renji, what are you doing?

Didn't you get the notice thatthe Espada have appeared?

Well, I did get a notice.

But I trained a little too much

and I exhaustedmy Spiritual Pressure.

We're massaging him right now!Yes, yes!

You fool!What are you doing?!

Sorry, but they're not peopleyou should fight

if you're not ingood condition.

So Mr. Urahara set out...

Urahara?!

You've overusedyour powers!

I'll go.You rest here!

B-But...!

That's right.It's as Abarai says...

But Abarai isexhausted as well.

Both of you rest here.

Instead...

I'll go.

This power...is not that of a Soul Reaper.

What did you doin the past month?!

I told you.I don't have time to explain!

You...piece of crap!

A Cero!

Piece of crap!

A Cero!

It's over, Grimmjow.

My mask...

It's over, Soul Reaper!

My...mask...

Looks like you over did it when you usedthat power of yours just now.

You were panting a lotas soon as your mask came off!

It's over, Soul Reaper!

I took quite a few hits,but in the end...

You can't defeat mewith your power!

Why you...

It's useless.

This is pathetic.

Are you really Thirteen CourtGuard Squad officers?

How boring.

Crap!

Aw... I'm so bored.

Luppi took all of them for himself.

Then again, it's a bother togo look for other prey.

Hey! Hey, newbie!What are you doing?!

Aw... I'm so bored!

Matsumoto!

Rangiku!

Yumichika!

Crap! What are you doing?!

How repulsive!

Why you...

Crap!

Lady, you've got a hot body.I'm jealous.

You're so sexy.

Maybe I'll punch youfull of holes.

You bastard!

Stop!

Well... I made it in time.

That sure was close.

Who are you?

Oh, hello...I didn't introduce myself.

Lady Inoue!Lady Orihime Inoue!

We have finished stabilizing the wallsof the Dangai, Precipice World!

Please pass through!

Okay.

Be careful.

Thank you very much!I'll be off!

Huh?

We shall accompany you!

What?! It's all right.You don't have to...

You are not a ryoka anymore!You're a guest!

A guest?

It is customary for two Soul Reaperswithout Hell Butterflies

to accompany a guestas the guest comes and goes!

You may find this uncomfortable,but please bear with us!

Okay... Then pleaselead the way.

I've got to hurry.

It's all right.

I've become a little strongerin the past month.

I'm sure I'll beof help now!

So wait for me Kurosaki...and everyone!

What's this?Only two guards?

Soul Society isunexpectedly incompetent.

They don't seem to know thatit's most dangerous when you travel.

Kisuke Urahara...

I'm the owner of Urahara's Shop,a humble shop that sells cheap sweets.

Pleased to meet you.

Oh? There's someonepretty strange...

He's from back then.

It's disappointing thatyou have two guards.

But it's convenient thatthe troublesome restrictive currents

have been frozen.

It's not in my nature to rush thingsjust so that we can talk.

Who are you?!Are you an Arrancar?!

Wait! You have somethingto tell me, don't you?!

That's right, woman.I have something to tell you.

Sotenkishun!

Run away!Please run away!

B-But...

Just run away! Please!

Ayame!

Oh? You can even healinjuries that deep?

That's quite the power.

Come with me, woman.

Wha-?

Don't talk.

Say only "yes."

If you say anything besides that,people will die.

I don't mean you...

I mean your friends.

Don't ask anything.Don't tell me anything.

You don't have any privileges.

The only thing you have isthe rope to the guillotine

in which your friends haveplaced their heads.

Understand this, woman.

This is not a negotiation.

This is an order.

Lord Aizen wants your power.

I've been ordered tobring you back unharmed.

I'll just tell you once more.

Come with me, woman.

Hey everyone,how about a massage from a mod soul?

Your fatigue will be curedin one minute!

It's true!My body feels really light!

What are you doing, Renji?

They helped me out earlier,

so I'm helping themwith their business.

You fools!

- We're very sorry!- We're very sorry!

{\a }ARRANCAR ENCYCLOPEDIA

The Arrancar Encyclopedia.

{\a }GRIMMJOW

If an Arrancar is born stronger than an existing Espada,

they switch places.

Recently, Grimmjow gothis arm cut off.

So Luppi becamethe new Number Six in his place.

{\a }LUPPI

I knew that I would become an Espada sooner or later.

Oh? We seem like-minded.

For some reason,the other Espada hate me.

I don't really like you either.

What?
