Bleach 188

01)
Grand Fisher: No...
Grand Fisher: NO
Grand Fisher: WAY!!!

02)
Kon: A..
Kon: All that...
Kon: In a single freakin' attack?!

03)
Kon: Insane...he's insanely strong!!
Kon: Is there any way...
Kon: he could be Ichigo's dumbass father?!
Urahara: Sooo, how did it go?
Urahara: Your revenge...
Isshin: So you did come.

04)
Isshin: Urahara...!!
Urahara: Long time no see, eh?
Urahara:...Isshin-san.

06)
Urahara: My, my...
Urahara: It looks like you haven't become rusty after all!
Urahara: I am very relieved.
Isshin: The hell? Don't give me weird compliments!
Urahara: Yes, buuuut~
Urahara: I just don't want you to blame me for your decrease in spiritual pressure!!
Isshin: Oh, now I get it.
Isshin: Anyway, forget about it.
Isshin: Even if it HAS decreased, it wouldn't be your fault.
Isshin: That'd simply just be the limit of my abilities.
Urahara: Even so...how is it?
Urahara: Being back in a Shinigami's body after 20 long years...
Isshin: Eh, it's okay.

07)
Urahara: So now...
Urahara: how do you feel INSIDE?
Isshin: I'm okay.
Isshin: I didn't...
Isshin: I didn't hate it as much as I said.
Isshin: That Hollow, I mean.
Isshin: If...
Isshin: there's anything that I've truly hated for 20 years without thinking twice,
Isshin: I'd have to be the fact that
Isshin: I failed to save Masaki on that night.

08)
Urahara: Well, seems like you haven't changed after all.
Urahara: Just as I thought...
Urahara: You really are just like your son!!
Isshin: NO I'M NOT--!!
Urahara: Speaking of your son...
Urahara: Have you noticed?
Isshin: ....Yep.
Isshin: Just as you predicted...
Isshin: They came in contact with him.

09)
Isshin: "VAIZARDS." (*Literally: "The Army of Masks/Masked Army")
Isshin: A rogue group of Ex-Shinigami, who use forbidden techniques...
Isshin: to gain the power of a Hollow.
Isshin: No one has any idea where they are or what they're planning.
Isshin: What a pain in the ass.

10)
Urahara: However...since they made contact with Kurosaki-san...
Isshin: It must mean they're preparing for some kinda battle, huh?
Isshin: ---Just like
Isshin: US.
Isshin: And no doubt, they also noticed...
Isshin: The rapid change of that "Arankaru*" fellow. (*Fractured Mask.)

11)
Urahara: Ah, so that Hollow that came earlier...
Urahara: he was that Arankaru, right?
Isshin: Yeah.
Isshin: But the Arankaru now was completely different from the one I saw over ten years ago.
Isshin: His power had suddenly changed completely,
Isshin: even after remaining dormant for so many years.
Isshin: You know what I'm getting at, right?
Isshin: It's HIS doing.

12)
Isshin: AIZEN SOUSUKE!!
Isshin: You see...
Isshin: He was the one who contacted the "Pre-Arankaru,"
Isshin: and then somehow created him into the Arankaru we know now...

13)
Isshin: All by using the power of the Hougyoku.
Isshin: Their spirit level had increased, but...
Isshin: The spirit itself was still too impure.
Isshin: That Arankaru must not have been completely finished yet.
Isshin: I fear it's simply an experimental version he sent out...
Isshin: Just to gather data and test how well it could fight at that level.
Isshin: Even at that level, though--
Isshin: The power of the Hougyoku is unbelievable.
Isshin: He'll finish his research before we know it.
Isshin: And then the finished form of "Arankaru" will appear,
Isshin: along with his personal army of Menos...

14)
Isshin: All in order to crush the world.
Isshin: So what are you gonna do?
Urahara: Eh, I'll do something.
Urahara: Either way, the way things are now,
Urahara: everyone we could possibly think of...

15)
Urahara: Is gonna do somethin'.
Urahara: Vaizards,
Urahara: us,
Urahara: as well as--

16)
Urahara: SOUL SOCIETY.

17)
Zaraki: Man!
Zaraki: This's freakin' annoying.
Hitsugaya: Is that so?

18)
Hitsugaya: I understand.
Hitsugaya: I shall leave immediately.
Yama-jiji: Thank you for all making it here on short notice--

19)
Yama-jiji: Now, finally--
Yama-jiji: we shall begin this special Captain assembly!!
Bottom corner: The problems Ichigo and Uryuu are faced with...what are their answers?!
