Kumoi discovers that Lurichiyo has entered the household, and orders Hanza to kill her. Ichigo, Rukia, Kenryuu and Enryuu arrive in the compound and separate to find her. Kenryuu and Enryuu are then locked in a storehouse by Kumoi, while Rukia encounters eleventh division captain Kenpachi Zaraki. He realizes that Ichigo is present and goes to find him, as Ichigo eventually finds Lurichiyo. However, Ichigo is forced to evade the guards, losing track of her. Lurichiyo is attacked by one of her child servants, later revealed as an assassin. Zaraki arrives to intervene and kills the assassin, and Rukia later asks Zaraki to keep the incident a secret. Watching from a distance, Hanza tries to frighten Ichigo by releasing his spiritual pressure, but is surprised when Ichigo is unperturbed.
