Preparations are underway for Rukia's execution, when Ganju, Uryu, and Chad receive unannounced visitors to their prison cell. Kenpachi, Yumichika, Yachiru along with Orihime, break into the prison cell to assist the Ryoka in an escape. Once they are discovered by Captain Komamura, Captain Tosen, Lieutenant Iba, and Lieutenant Hisagi, Kenpachi is left to prove his strength once again.
