[Side text: Tsukishima finally defeated!! Just when it looked like Ginjou was the only threat remaining, he speaks of a shocking truth...?!]
[Sign: Urahara Store]
Isshin: ...They seem to be stabilising...
Urahara: ...Yes. // Tessai-san...

2
Urahara: I'll leave the rest to you.
Tessai: As you wish.
Isshin: Where are you heading off to?
Urahara: To join the others.
Isshin: Gonna lend a hand? // Then I'll come too.
Urahara: No, no... / I'm sure most of the fighting is already over, so you focus on the injured. // It's not like you'd be much use if you did come along anyhow~!
Isshin: [aside]not much use, he says...[/aside] // ...I'd like to back up Ichigo and make sure his battle is over as quickly as possible. / Otherwise...
Urahara: Otherwise Ginjou Kuugo... // ...might tell him the truth?

3
Urahara: ...If that happens, then it happens. // He was always going... // ...to find out someday.

[Side text: The truth is always cruel...]
Ichigo: The real enemy... // ...I should be fighting......?!

5
Ginjou: Yeah.
Ichigo: ...Don't screw with me. // I'm getting tired of all your stupid tricks.
Ishida: Quite right. // You've realised that you're in an unfavourable position, so you come up with a "shocking revelation" to pressure your opponent on a psychological level. // You're trying to save your own hide by convincing your enemy that they're better off siding with you. // Am I wrong?

6
Ginjou: ...An unfavourable position? // Does my position really look unfavourable to you? / Sorry, but I feel quite confident that I can take both of you at once right now. // Why don't you try firing at me? // I'll deflect your attacks and continue my explanation at the same time.
Ishida: ...............
Ginjou: Kurosaki.

7
Ginjou: Do you know... // ...the reason why you were given that Acting Shinigami Emblem?
Ishida: ............!
Ichigo: .................. // ...What are you getting at?
Ginjou: ...When you were given that emblem, I daresay this is what they told you. // "If an Acting Shinigami is deemed to be of worth to Soul Society..." / "...then he is granted this emblem." // But listen to me, Kurosaki.

8
Ginjou: That's a stinking lie.
Ichigo: !
Ishida: (...I'd anticipated that much. // A large organisation doesn't make decisions about whether an individual is "of worth" to them or not so lightly. // And most telling of all, if that emblem is only granted to Acting Shinigami who are "of worth" to Soul Society... // ...then why didn't they say a word to Kurosaki... // ...about what happens to Acting Shinigami who aren't granted that distinction?)
Ginjou: To be more precise...

9
Ginjou: It doesn't make any difference whether you're "of worth" to Soul Society or not. // Whether they thought you were useful to them or not... / ...they'd've given you that emblem either way.
Ishida: ..............................!!
Ginjou: The proper name for that emblem... / ...is the "Acting Shinigami Battle Permit". / It certifies that you're allowed to take action as a representative of Soul Society in the human world.
Ichigo: ...I know that.
Ginjou: But can you remember it ever... // ...actually fulfilling that purpose?

10
Flashback!Ichigo: I'm Kurosaki Ichigo! / Acting Shinigami! // Here's my emblem!
Flashback!SomeGuy: Emblem?! What's that?! // I've never seen or heard of one of those before!!
Flashback!Ichigo: (...The hell? // This thing isn't any help at all...)
Ichigo: ...Are you trying to say... // ...that this emblem has some kind of other purpose?
Ginjou: ...That's right.

11
Ginjou: The purpose of that emblem... // ...is to monitor and control you. // Thanks to that emblem, Soul Society can track your position at all times... / ...and as long as you keep it close by... // ...they can keep your reiatsu in check. // Did it never seem strange to you? / Even in your Shinigami form, your reiatsu tends to go wild at the slightest provocation. / So why did it never cause you the slightest trouble while you were in human form?

12
Ginjou: Or how about when you first used that emblem to summon your Fullbring? // Did you not wonder why your reiatsu came flooding out of it? // And while you were training that Fullbring... // ...did you not hear any familiar voices coming from that emblem? // The Acting Shinigami Emblem... / ...is both a communications device... / ...and a means of absorbing your reiatsu, analysing it and controlling it. // Soul Society wants to keep you under close observation and under their control. / That's why they gave you that emblem. // You know it's true. // You must have had doubts about their intentions. // You just kept them suppressed... // ...on a subconscious level.

13
Ginjou: You didn't want to believe that the people you'd forged a bond of trust with on the battlefield... // ...were lying to you all along. // You're in denial. // It's time you saw the truth. / Ichigo. // ...Let me tell you the name... // ...of the man who came up with this system.

14
Ginjou: Ukitake Juushirou. // Captain of the 13th Division.

15
Ginjou: That's right. The biggest advocate of peace in the whole Gotei 13... / ...has been playing us for fools! // Ichigo!!!
Flashback!Ishida: (The real danger... // ...is if none of the above are the case.)
Ginjou: He wants to watch over our every move! Keep us on a leash! Use us as pawns of Soul Society... // ...and slaughter us if we step out of line!
Ishida: (This isn't good.........) // Kurosaki!!!

16
Ishida: (Kurosaki isn't capable... // ...of facing up to a revelation like this right now!!!)
Ginjou: Everyone from Soul Society... // ...knows all about what that emblem really means! // Ichigo... // They couldn't care less what happens to you!!
Ishida: Don't listen to him, Kurosaki!!
Ichigo: SHUT UP!!! // BAN... // ...KAI!
