Kyouraku has Nanao go with the kunoichi bodyguard of Katen Kyoukotsu to find a sword beast, while the mistress of Katen Kyoukotsu sips sake with Kyouraku. Nanao later spots the kunoichi bodyguard fighting a bearded sword beast, but she toys with him instead of trying to defeat him, which causes Nanao to become very concerned to the point of restraining her. Later, with Rangiku's help, Nanao then tries to bond with kunoichi bodyguard. After many methods to open up to her ultimately fail, Nanao plans to have a party for the kunoichi bodyguard under the cherry blossoms. Nanao realizes that the kunoichi bodyguard takes an interest in cherry blossoms, pinning one to her hair. Not before long, the bearded sword beast returns, cutting Nanao's arm. Remembering that she set down her weapon down near a cherry blossom tree, the kunoichi bodyguard is rendered defenseless, although she still has the determination to fight back. When the bearded sword beast kicks the kunoichi bodyguard into a wall, he tries to finish Nanao off, that is until Kyouraku shows up and defeats him. During the party, the kunoichi bodyguard returns the favor by pinning a cherry blossom to Nanao's hair. (Source: Wikipedia) Beast Swords arc: (9/10)
