[Side text: Ayon, the beast who once faced the Shinigami as a terrifying menace, now faces a Quincy Vollständig!!]
MilaRose: ...What're you looking at us for?
SungSun: ...It's not as if the beast could actually be concerned about us...
Apacci: .................. // ...You don't need to worry about us. // Just go. / Ayon.

Ayon: RRRRRGHHHHHH!!!

3
Orihime: !!
Chad: Wha......
Ichigo: What... What is he...?!
Ayon: RRRRRRRRRAAAAAGHHHHHHHHH!!
Apacci: Ayon... / ...is a monster created from a fusion of our three left arms!! // He ain't short on power, but he ain't smart enough to pick his targets, either!!

4
Apacci: It ain't you we're picking a fight with this time. / So take my advice and run for your lives if you don't wanna lose 'em!! // Shinigami!!!
Opie: Tchh...

Opie: My Vollständig could not possibly... / ...fall at the hands of such a...

Bleach 492
Balancer's Justice
SomeGuy: Worthless idiots!! / This isn't where you're stationed, is it?! // Sixth Seat Kajoumaru is over there, so hurry up and get moving!!
Yuki/Shino: Yessir!!!
Yuki: He was pretty mad with us, Shino-san!
Shino: Yeah, I could kind of tell!! It's your fault for picking the worst time to go to the toilet!!

7
Yuki: Shino-san... / There's something that's been confusing me for a while...
Shino: What is it now?
Yuki: Why exactly do we have to fight against the Quincy?
Shino: Huhhh?! // The heck are you talking about?! They're the ones who came and declared war on us, remember?!!
Yuki: Th... That's not what I mean...
Shino: The hell do you mean, then?!!
Yuki: I understand that they declared war on us... // ...but what I don't understand... // ...is why the Shinigami and the Quincy are enemies with each other in the first place! / After all, we both have the same goal or defeating Hollows...
Kajoumaru: ...I had heard rumours... // ...that these details had all but disappeared from the curriculum at the Academy in recent years, but it seems like they were true.

[Box: 13th Division, Sixth Seat / Kajoumaru Hidetomo]
Shino: S... / Sixth Seat Kajoumaru!! // I sincerely apologise for our lateness arriving at our battle stations!!
Kajoumaru: No, no... / That's fine. // The alarm still hasn't sounded, so let me fill you in a little. // The biggest difference between Shinigami and Quincy... / ...is in the methods they use to defeat Hollows. // Shinigami defeat Hollows by purifying them, sending their souls to Soul Society. / Quincy, on the other hand, destroy Hollows outright, their souls included.

9
Kajoumaru: You are aware, I assume, that in ancient times, Shinigami were known as "Balancers"?
Yuki: Yes.
Kajoumaru: Well, that name represents the essence of our true calling. // The supply of souls in Soul Society and in the human world is always maintained at a careful balance. / And these two supplies of souls are kept apart from one another by the boundary realm we call "Dangai". // If this boundary were not in place, the balance of souls would crumble... / ...leading to the collapse of both worlds. // We as Shinigami send souls from Soul Society to the human world as living creatures... / ...whilst guiding all souls of the dead, without discrimination, back to Soul Society. / In this way, we are able to monitor the supply of souls in each world, and maintain the all-important balance. / That is the reason why we Shinigami exist. // And the Quincy... // ...represented a grave threat to that balance.

10
Kajoumaru: The Quincy annihilate souls that have transformed into Hollows, destroying them completely. // Each time this happens, it means that a soul that was sent into the human world never returns to Soul Society. / It results in the balance of souls continuously shifting in favour of the human world. // If we allow this to continue, the balance of souls will eventually crumble. // Soul Society will collapse into the human world... // ...causing the complete destruction of both.
Yuki: ..................!!
Kajoumaru: In order to prevent this outcome, / Soul Society approached the Quincy many times and attempted to reason with them. / But our appeals were always rejected.

11
Kajoumaru: The Shinigami continued to approach the Quincy and attempt to make negotiations many times, even as the conflict descended into violent opposition. / But the Quincy refused to change their stance... / ...and the situation continued to proceed in the direction of inevitable collapse. // Until finally... / ...after a long and strenuous period of heated debate... // 200 years ago... / ...the Quincy Extermination Operation was finally carried out. // Our ideals are incompatible... / ...and the grudge that stems from our extermination of their kind can never be erased. // For Shinigami and Quincy alike... / ...there is no path left but bitter conflict. // ...Do you see now? / Officer Yuki Ryuunosuke.
Yuki: ......M...... // ...May I... / ...ask one more thing......?

12
Yuki: In this conflict... // ...are the Shinigami on the side of justice...?!
Kajoumaru: If only one side were clearly on the side of "justice"... // ...we would refer to this as self-defence or subjugation. // But this... / ...is war.

13
Kajoumaru: "War" refers to a conflict... // ...in which both sides fight for justice.

Ayon: RRRGHHH!! // RGHHH // GHHHH // GHHHH!! // RGHHH...
Orihime: ...............
Chad: This is too much... / He's going too far...!
Ayon: RGHHHHH!
Apacci: Oh dear, what's this now~? / Did we overdo it a little, hmmmm? // You're a toughie, though, I'll give you that. / I'm impressed that your body's still recognisable after all that -

16
Apacci: Nghh......?!
Opie: I see... // This level of strength was not mentioned in the reports... // I will have to send word to His Majesty... // ...recommending a slight Blut intensity adjustment.

17
Opie: But before I do... // I think it is time for you... // ...to swiftly die.
