Description

Marching Out the Zombies Yhwach's ascent to the Soul Palace blows everything and everyone in the vicinity away. Kyōraku questions why Hyōsube would even allow Yhwach to ascend so easily. Orihime and Chad rebuke Ichigo, while Kisuke arrives to lead them to the 12th Division barracks, where Mayuri preemptively built a one-use replica of the Shiba clan's cannon to shoot Ichigo's group back up to the palace. Requiring massive energy to fire off, Kisuke had Yoruichi Shihōin and the remaining Visored collect Reishi from distortions in the Human World, created by Quincies since the first invasion. Byakuya is surrounded by Candice and two more Quincies, while Bazz-B antagonizes Renji and Rukia as soon as they emerge from the rubble. Iba breaks out of the rubble, having protected the wolf formerly known as Komamura. Giselle tries to goad Ikkaku and Yumichika into an attack, so they could get controlled, but when the latter exposes Giselle as being a male, he is angered and summons the semi-conscious undead Bambietta. Giselle explains that he can zombify and control Soul Reapers just with a bit of his blood touching them, but a Quincy actually needs to be dead for him to control, so he personally executed Bambi. Unable to combat Bambietta's ability, the two are overwhelmed and about to be zombified, until Mayuri and Nemu step in. Mayuri, already having created a device to counteract Bambietta's ability, nullifies her use as a pawn. Giselle summons his army of zombified Soul Reapers, comprised mostly of members of Squad 11. Mayuri then reveals his very own pawns, the reanimated former Sexta Espada Luppi Antenor, the two Privaron Espada Dordoni Alessandro Del Socaccio and Cirucci Sanderwicci, as well as Segunda Espada Baraggan Louisenbairn's Fracción Charlotte Chuhlhourne, all retrieved by Mayuri from Octava Espada Szayelaporro Grantz's lab. The resurrected arrancars effortlessly begin dispatching Giselle's zombies, so he summons the zombified Hitsugaya.
