Ep. 322: Rukia Fights Her Reigai While Fake Captains Prepare to Escape

322

Kon continues to follow Nozomi, who claims to have some sort of uncertain destination to find. Ichigo, Orihime and Chad are seen searching for Nozomi, while Uryuu is seen tending to the wounds of Ikkaku, Yumikchika, Hisagi and Oomaeda. Rangiku, blocking the attacks of Kira's reigai, is surprised when her zanpakutou drops to the ground, since his new and improved zanpakutou can increase the weight of whatever he strikes up to tenfold the amount. However, Rangiku, now subdued, cleverly blocks his zanpakutou with a heavy steel pole, trapping it onto the ground, allowing her to defeat him and cause him to disintegrate. Ukitake, pleading to Central 46 to release Kyouraku, is denied his request, and he later meets with Retsu Unohana, who warns him to be careful. Rukia's reigai is soon joined with Nemu Kurotsuchi's reigai to brawl against Rukia, but Nemu arrives and kills her reigai, which disintegrates and leaves behind a red stone, assuming this is true form of the reigai. Elsewhere, Nozomi tells Kon she must find a place with a row of shrine gates, and Kon agrees to take her to the first place he remembers. Rukia, who apparently defeats her reigai, joins Nemu and Rangiku to search for Nozomi, but Rukia is revealed to actually be the fake Rukia, who then tosses Nemu and Rangiku into the river with the real Rukia. Ukitake is slashed by Kyouraku when freeing him from imprisonment, revealing this Kyouraku to also be a reigai. The false Ukitake meets up with the false Kyouraku, as they prepare to flee.
