Seinosuke YAMADA is an acquaintance Tokinada. He works in a medical facility for nobles. He is Hanatarô's older brother, and he was Captain UNOHANA's lieutenant 100 years ago. (Image)

In the Sereitei's Central Pharmaceutical Institution, Shunsui visits Seinosuke for information. While Seinosuke does thank Shunsui for taking care of Hanatarō, he makes it abundantly clear he won't forgive the Captain-Commander for sacrificing Unohana's life, a fact which Tokinada divulged to him. [16] Mayuri, meanwhile, is also surprised to find Grimmjow resistant to his own poison, and theorizes that Grimmjow must have build up a resistance after being exposed to far worse substances. Indeed, as he keeps resisting the poison, Grimmjow remembers his fight with Askin Nakk Le Vaar and realizes that exposure to the Sternritter's powers left his body far more resilient than it was before.

At the same time, in the Urahara shop's underground facility, Hisagi is studying the unconscious forms of numerous rows of Humans that Tessai brought in from the local hospital. Although they all appear to be ordinary Humans, Hisagi notes that their Reiatsu feels strange. While Tessai denies that they are Fullbringers, nor that they are controlled by some sort of Hollow, he discovers several strange amulets on each of the Humans. Tessai reveals the seemingly ordinary religious amulets are in fact made out of prohibited spiritual technology. Technology that had the ban on them removed during the fight against Aizen. As Hisagi recalls that Aura mentioned his fight against Findorr in the Karakura Town, he realizes that the amulets are miniature Tenkai Kecchu. [18] KUBO: Narita put forward a request, asking “may I get Hirako and Hisagi to release their Bankai?” and he followed up with “if it’s okay with you, please tell me their names” to which I replied “I will think about it”, I finally finished thinking about it just the other day. Though, as a matter of fact, I haven’t relayed that information to him yet. At the Urahara Shop, Aura is surprised and intimidated that Urahara managed to discern so much about her from so little information. Urahara says that he could not ignore the sudden rise of the XCUTION cult shortly after the Quincy war, and he already knew that Aura was the cult's leader. Aura says she expects as much from the man who created the Hōgyoku, and emphasizes they want Urahara on their side at all costs. [11] The Soul King's power of The Almighty served as the keystone to separate and maintain the 3 worlds. The World of the Living for humans, Soul Society for the souls, and Hueco Mundo for the hollows. (The remains of the original menos and the hollows that came after, are the sands of Hueco Mundo.) Yet the Tsunayashiro ancestor took things even further still, due to fearing the Soul King's power. First, the Soul King's "Right Arm of Stagnation" and "Left Arm of Progress" were dismembered. Then was his heart, organs, and legs over time. Leaving the Soul King as a powerless lynchpin and slave. Tokinada's ultimate plan is to create a replica of the Soul King's Royal Palace, transport it above Karakura Town, reveal the existence of the afterlife to the World of the Living, and instate Hikone as a Soul King that he can control.

In the present, Hikone affirms that, according to Tokinada, Gremmy's brain is inside their head, functioning as their core. In response Liltotto curses Tokinada and proceeds to fire several Heilig Pfeil at Hikone, who deflects them with a combination of Blut Vene and Hierro. Shinji notices this, and wonders how Hikone can use Quincy and Hollow powers at once, as those essences tend to be extremely incompatible. Shinji dreadfully wonders if the Hōgyoku is somehow involved, while Hikone wonders what they have done that made Liltotto so furious at them. [16]
