THG：俺が教えた治療の技はキッチリやってんだろうなァ！？
You been makin’ good use of those healing techniques I taught ya!?

Unohana：勿論です
Of course

THG：ホントかア！？
Oh really now!?
THG：それにしちゃア今回随分と死人が出たみてえじゃねえか！
‘Cause it seems like a whole lotta people died this time!
THG：どうなってんだおォ！？
What the hell happened, huh!?

Page 07
Priest guy：まァ　まァ！！
Now, now!!
Priest guy：久方振りの再会じゃ！
This is our first reunion in a very long time!
Priest guy：つもる話もあろうが後にせい！
There is much to talk about, but let’s save it for later!

THG：・・・ちっ
…Tch

Kyouraku：いや～～～～～
We~~~~~~~ll
Kyouraku：零番隊の皆さんは相変わらずだねぇ　和尚！
It seems everyone in Squad Zero hasn’t changed much, Head Priest!

Kyouraku：で？
So
Kyouraku：今回はどんな用件で来られたんです？
What brings you all here this time?

Page 08
Priest guy：・・・おんしが黒崎一護か
…You must be Kurosaki Ichigo

Priest guy：今回は
We are here
Priest guy：霊王の御意志で護廷十三隊を建て直しに来た
Because it is the Spirit King’s will that we rebuild the Gotei 13

Priest guy：まずは黒崎一護
But first, Kurosaki Ichigo
Priest guy：おんしを霊王宮（うえ）へ連れて行く
We’re going to take you back to the Spirit Palace

Sui-Feng：ふざけるなッ！！！
Enough with this nonsense!!!

Sui-Feng：零番隊がどれだけ偉いか知らぬが
I don’t care how great Squad Zero is
Sui-Feng：瀞霊廷がこんなになるまで霊王宮（うえ）で呆けていた連中が
You all just lounge around up there until Seireitei ends up like this
Sui-Feng：今頃出てきて十三隊を立て直すだと！？
And now you show up to rebuild the thirteen squads!?
Sui-Feng：ふざけるのも大概にしろ！！
Your nonsense goes too far!!

Priest Guy：話を進めるぞ
I’ll continue
Priest Guy：そんじゃあ・・・
Now then…
Sui-Feng：おいっ！！！
Hey!!!

Page 11
THG：うるせえよ
Put a damn sock in it

Sui-Feng：（何だ今の動きは―――――――・・・！）
(What was that movement just now---------…!?)

THG：ふざけんじゃねえはこっちのセリフだ
We’re the ones who should be telling you to quit screwin’ around
THG：お前ぇらは何だ？
What’re you guys?
THG：“護廷”十三隊だろうが！
You’re the “Gotei” 13!
THG：おォ！？
Yeah!?

THG：王属任務（オレら）の仕事は王宮の守護
Our job’s to defend the Royal Palace
THG：護廷十三隊（おめえら）の仕事は瀞霊廷の守護
Yours is to defend Seireitei

Page 12
THG：“護廷”の名前を背負った連中が
If you take on the name “Court Guardians”
THG：護れねえから助けてくださいじゃア
And then come beggin’ for help ‘cause you can’t protect Seireitei
THG：護廷の二字の名が泣くぜ！
Then that two-word title becomes worthless!
*TN: “Gotei” means “Court Guardians”

Sui-Feng：くっ・・・
Kuh…!

THG：痛えなチクショ―――――！！
Ouch, dammit-------!!

Priest Guy：あとにせいと言うたろうが
I thought I said to save it for later
Priest Guy：こっちの用件を済ませるのが先じゃ
First we must complete our task

Senshumaru：必要無い
That won’t be necessary

Page 13
Senshumaru：連行名簿にあったものは全て
All the items on the list for taking away
Senshumaru：既に此処に揃えてある
Are already gathered here

Gotei 13 Captains：！！！！
!!!!

Senshumaru：後は黒崎一護
You, Kurosaki Ichigo

Page 14
Senshumaru：そちだけじゃ
Are all that remains

Unohana：だめですよ
I cannot allow this

Unohana：その球体の中に入っているのは
Inside those orbs
Unohana：朽木白哉　阿散井恋次　朽木ルキアの三名ですね
Are Kuchiki Byakuya, Abarai Renji, and Kuchiki Rukia

Unohana：いずれも今瀞霊廷を出ては危険な状態です
All of whom will be in danger if they leave Seireitei now
Unohana：連れて行かれる訳にはいきません
They cannot be taken

THG：だから連れて行くんだろうが
That’s why we’re takin’ ‘em
THG：おォ！？
Right!?

Page 15
THG：お前えも解ってる筈だぜ
You shoulda figured it out by now
THG：この３人はお前えの力じゃ全快には戻せねェ！
You ain’t got the ability to fully heal them!

THG：何より
Especially Kuchiki Byakuya
THG：朽木白哉はこのままここに居れば確実に死ぬ！
He’ll die for sure if he stays here like this!

THG：お前えじゃ無理だ
You can’t do it
THG：俺が治す！
So I’m gonna heal ‘em!

THG：・・・解ってんだろう
…I’m sure you know
THG：“烈”
“Retsu”*
*TN: This is Unohana’s first name. I think this is the first time anyone has called her by it. It means “strong” or “intense”.

THG：今のお前えがやるべき事は
That healing
THG：治療なんかじゃ無えって事は
Ain’t what you should be doin’ at this point

Page 16
Mayuri：・・・そこに入っているのは天鎖斬月だネ？
…That’s Tensa Zangetsu inside that one, yes?

Mayuri：研究室に侵入したのか
So you broke into my lab?
Mayuri：相変わらず嘗めた真似をしてくれるネ
I see you have just as much respect for us as always

Senshumaru：オヤ
Well
Senshumaru：誰かと思えばマユリかえ
If it isn’t Mayuri

Senshumaru：其方こそ
And what about you?
Senshumaru：浸入だ等と相も変わらず大袈裟な
Using words like “broke into”, your flare for exaggeration hasn’t changed a bit
Senshumaru：妾が扉に手を添えたら
I merely placed my hand on the door
Senshumaru：するりと開いただけの事
And it opened right up
Senshumaru：ただ
It’s simply

Page 17
Senshumaru：妾の居った頃よりも
That the locks are less tight
Senshumaru：随分と鍵は緩かったのう
Than when I was here

Mayuri：・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・
……………………

Ichigo：ま・・・・・・
H-
Ichigo：待ってくれよ！
Hang on a sec!

Ichigo：傷を治すために連れてくってんならなんで俺まで連れて行くんだ！？
If you’re taking them away for healing, then why do you need to take me!?

Ichigo：俺の傷はみんなほどじゃねえ！
My wounds aren’t as bad as everyone else’s!
Ichigo：瀞霊廷で充分治るだろ！
They’ll heal up just fine in Seireitei!
Ichigo：それに俺にはやらなきゃいけねえ事が―――――――・・・
Plus I’ve got some things I need to take care of---------….

Text at bottom：次号！！一護に託された想いとはいったい・・・！？
Next issue!! What thoughts and feelings have been entrusted to Ichigo…!?

Page 18
Priest guy：わかっとる
We know that
Priest guy：おんしだけは別の理由で連れて行く
We’re taking you for a different reason

Ichigo：別の理由・・・・・・？
A different reason……?

Urahara：どぉ～～～～もォ！！
Helloooooo!!

Urahara：イヤ―――――よかった　よかったナイスタイミング！
Well-------this is great, what good timing!
Urahara：皆サンお揃いのようっスねェ！！
It seems everyone’s all in the same place!!
