Grimmjow utilizes a device to imprison Ulquiorra in an alternate dimension, estimating a two to three hour escape time. Orihime completes healing Ichigo, who then engages Grimmjow in combat. Despite activating his bankai, Ichigo struggles against his opponent. The tide shifts when Grimmjow targets Orihime and Nel with a Grand Rey Cero, prompting Ichigo to don his hollow mask to block the attack. Observing Ichigo’s full power, Grimmjow releases his zanpakuto, Pantera, and readies himself for the ensuing battle.
