09x07 - Break the Mirror's Boundary! Ichigo's Captivity

[bunniefuu]

Trouble arises oversuccession rights

in one of Soul Society's high-rankingaristocratic families, the Kasumiohji Clan.

Their princess, Rurichiyo Kasumiohji,traveled to the World of the Living.

Ichigo reluctantly agreesto become her bodyguard.

Rurichiyo, who is unaware thather life is being targeted,

turns Ichigo's life upside downwith her naive behavior.

One after another,

Ichigo and his friends take downthe assassins sent by Kumoi,

the provisional administratorof the Kasumiohji Clan.

Frustrated by the string ofmissed opportunities in his plans,

Kumoi comes upwith something new.

Sir Kumoi

Why did you let Princess Rurichiyoreturn to the World of the Living?

I cannot be rash and attract the attentionof the Thirteen Court Guard Squads.

Hanza Nukui, I am entrusting youwith this sword.

Get rid of Rurichiyo andthe rest in the World of the Living.

Along with everyonewho gets in your way.

Now thenI shall proceed with my plans over here.

I'm so bored.

I wonder where Ruricchi has gone.

Master Kannogi.

Huh?

Yes?

Sir Kumoi wishes to see you.

Please come to the meeting room.

I saidmove out of the way!

Don't block people's waywith your huge frame!

This is my house, y'know!

Oh, you're wrong there, Lirin.

We are mere freeloaders here.

You're flipping the logic here.

Shut up!

Stop nitpicking on every little detail!

Move!

Now you've done it!

Oh, but that was your doing!

This poses a problem.

One more time!

Oh! This is so much fun!

Rurichiyo, you're so good at that!

That's just beginner's luck!

It's just chance! A coincidence!

Oww! What's the big idea?!

It is not chance!I am good at it!

What?! Are you looking for a fight?!

W-What?

I didn't do a thing. Yet

Jinta

Still

I am surprised that you allmade it back safely.

You used the Kasumiohji Clan'sprivate Senkaimon for the return trip,

did you not?

Yeah.

Just to be safe, we waited until darkbefore heading to the gate.

But it was surprisingly easy to return.

It was as ifthey let us go on purpose.

More like

they did let you go on purpose.

It's easier to settle affairsin the World of the Living.

That's probably it.

Say, Mr. Urahara.

What is this aboutgoods running low?

I don't know much in detail.

In any case,products are harder to get.

We've never run so low on supplies.

It seems there is a declinein the raw material itself.

Raw material?

I mean, reishi.

Of which, only one particular typeis depleting drastically.

But when I went over there recently,there was no sign of that.

It's all happening under the radar.

But it's hard to believe somethinglike this would happen naturally.

Then someone isdoing this intentionally?

I checked many sources,but I couldn't get that far.

However

However?

This phenomenon started

the same timethat princess appeared here.

You sure it's not a coincidence?

No.

We can't dismiss that.

The Kasumiohji Clan arehigh-ranking aristocrats

second tothe four great noble families,

but I've heard that the familyhas other special circumstances.

I don't know what that is,

but the mayhem arisingfrom the run on goods

has never happenedin Soul Society.

I can't believe that they'renot connected in some way.

Kenryu, don't you know anything?

Our duty is to protectPrincess Rurichiyo.

We know nothing else!

Don't get so cocky!

Cripes! You never actaccording to plan!

At least stay well informed!

Be silent!

Now, now

Anyway, let's justinvestigate a bit longer.

This incident seems togo deeper than I thought.

Lure them away fromPrincess Rurichiyo as planned.

Now thenSubstitute Soul Reaper

Show me how good you are.

What's this Spiritual Pressure?

Rukia! Inoue!Take Rurichiyo home.

Right.

What about you, Kurosaki?

I'm gonna check that out.

I'm coming with you.

All right!

Chappy, watch Ichigo's body.

Leave it to me, pyon!

What did you just say?

I said Lord Shu Kannogi will becomethe head of the Kasumiohji Clan.

Would there be a problem with that?

I cannot agree to such a thing inthe absence of Lady Rurichiyo!

Agreed!

Our Kasumiohji Clan has alwayshad female sovereigns.

It is an ironclad law!

A male cannot head our clan.

Lord Kannogi came to this clanas Lady Rurichiyo's betrothed!

Be it temporary,in Lady Rurichiyo's absence,

it is in the Kasumiohji Clan's interestto ask him to be our lord.

But still

I am opposed!

Me as well!

The enemy's Spiritual Pressurehas spread throughout the town.

It must be a trap.

We'll know when we fight them.

Let's split up!

Yeah.

His Spiritual Pressure

It's the same as back then.

Oh? You sensed it, after all?

Yeah You're the one who taunted meback in the Soul Society, aren't you?

I am Hanza Nukui.

Now show me just how gooda Substitute Soul Reaper is.

Again?

Yes.

Why is my life being targeted?

It is too complex to explain!

In any case, we will protect you,no matter what!

That is no explanation!

Tell me everything!

Another time!

No!

What's wrong?

You That sword

Oh You noticed it?

It's the same oneas that other time.

The Zanpakuto and its wielderare one in body and mind!

Why do you have that?!

You don't needto know!

What's the matter? Is that all?!

That last guy wasway stronger!

I guess I can't win like this.

What?!

Trap them Saiga!

Such a small repertoire.I've seen that att*ck already!

Now, it's my turn!

Not again!

What the hell?!

This is different fromwhat the small fry use.

You can't defend yourself from my attackjust by looking away from the light.

What will we do?

Sir Kumoi is pushing his waythrough everything.

The order of the Kasumiohji Clanwill be totally disrupted!

We must object, at all cost.

“ What is this?!“ Identify yourselves!

They are faster than I had thought.

This is a bad spot.

I must get out into the open.

Santenkesshun!

Kotenzanshun!

Now's your chance!

Thank you!

Let's go, Inoue!

Right!

What is this place?

My body

It's useless.

Your consciousness is here,yet it's not here.

What?

As long as you are locked upin the world of mirrors,

you will not be able tomove an inch.

It's totally different from the timeyou last faced this sword.

What do you mean?!

This sword acts by consumingits wielder's spiritual power.

In other words,

the higher the spiritual power,the greater the power it can draw.

Depending on its wielder?!

If this sword consumesspiritual power,

only someone who can endure itis able to manifest its true power.

Someone like me!

Now then, let us not waste time.

I shall k*ll you in one breath.

As if I'll let you

have your way!

What?! A cr*ck in Saiga?!

What is this Spiritual Pressure?!

Why you

Don't get too cocky!

Damn Move Move!

It's useless!

What's wrong with me?! Move!

Yoruichi!

Yoruichi?!

It seems ordinary methodswon't work on him.

Yeah. I owe you.

Oh? You still want to continue?

Check it out carefully.

The Spiritual Pressureof your subordinates.

What?!

This is the end.

Impossible!

Did you think you could bring us downwith that level of troops?

Hold it, you!

Ichigo!

Kuchiki!

Damn it. Shihoin Yoruichi

I didn't expect someonelike her to be there.

And also

Ichigo Kurosaki.His Spiritual Pressure is

So it won't be that easy.

Well then

Now, we will proceed with the installationof the th Lord of the Kasumiohji Clan.

Lord Shu Kannogi, my complementson your installation.

Do you supposethey will come again?

I'll take them on next time!

But I'm told that our new gigaiaren't ready yet!

What?! And I wanted to show offmy sexy appearance!

There's no such thing.

ARRANCAR ENCYCLOPEDIA

Arrancar Encyclopedia.

I'm going to talk aboutFracciónes today.

We are able to select personal subordinates

FRACCIÓNES

from Arrancars numbered and under.

They are called Fracciónes.

Some choose one, others more.

“ Master Szayelaporro!“ And mine are quite special.

You can eat them and they havea rehabilitating effect.

See?

Hey, hey, you shouldn'ttake over someone's segment!

Would you like one?

I can't handle raw food.
