The fight between Ichigo and Kirge continues as Kirge starts to show off a little about he’s new power, the Quincy Letzt Stil. Both Ichigo and Kirge go on a head to head battle, but at each point, Ichigo loses as he can’t get a proper hit even at a close range. Even the Getsuga Tenshou is unable to harm Kirge. After Kirge powers up, Ayon, the large beast appears to battle Kirge.

We start of the chapter with Orihime asking herself why she’s unable to feel any Reishi or any Reiatsu from Kirge. At the battle ground, Ichigo see’s Kirge’s amazing new power. Out of nowhere, Kirge moves from in front of Ichigo to behind him within a shockingly amazing time, Kirge goes for the strike and hits Ichigo.

In the past, Urahara was talking to Ichigo about the Quincy Letzt Stil. Urahara begins telling Ichigo about how Uryu’s Quincy powers were lost. He mentions that each Quincy has a glove which acts as shackles to limit their powers because of the way they gather their reishi. Once they’ve trained with their gloves on, their maximum power can be obtained by just removing it. Urahara also mentions that it this power is also their last because after this they lose it.

Kirge notices Ichigo’s face expressions and comments on it. Kirge somehow knows the questions Ichigo is thinking off and answers it. He tells Ichigo that it’s completely different from what Uryu’s power is. He explains that the Quincy Letzt Stil that Uryu has is a relic because it had died out over 200 years ago. Kirge explains that Ishida had refused the progress that they had made and thus he’s powers are still too weak and thus is completely different to Quincy Vollstandig.

At each point, Ichigo gets beaten down by Kirge’s overwhelming power. Ichigo understands that the current powers Uryu has are too weak and that Kirge’s Quincy Letzt Stil is very powerful. Ichigo tells Kirge that he’s relieved that Ishida won’t be transforming to something so disgusting. Out of nowhere, Ichigo releases a quick Getsuga Tenshou to he’s neck.

After the smoke clears after the Getsuga Tenshou, Kirge tells him that that was not a good attack because he should aim before slashing. Kirge questions Ichigo on how he called he’s form eerie, because it’s possibly the correct reaction to the eyes of a treacherous Shinigami. He explains that their appearance is holy and thus should look horrifying.

Kirge starts to form a large ball full of reishi on the top of he’s sword. Orihime notices that he’s literally peeling off her Santen Kesshun. Chad notices that it’s not just her Santen Kesshun that’s being peeled off, but trees, sand, rocks and buildings. Everything made of reishi in Hueco Mundo is being pulled out and going to the weapon which Kirge is currently forming.

Kirge laughs as he gains more and more reishi, he tells everyone that he’s now going to send his Vollstandig Biskiel (Meaning Complete Justice of God) to Ichigo. As he goes for the attack, he notices a large animal like structure which has two horns with fur. Ayon the monster has returned! Emilou Apacci, Franceska Mila and Cyan Sung-Sun get up. they get angry because they were literally underestimated. Apacci shouts for Ayon to go and destroy Kirge! Bleach 491 ends here.

What an impressive power Kirge has got with him. The Quincy power really seems to be something that is really powerful. I can now see that after a thousand years their powers have really grown to the peak because Kirge is really kicking Ichigo’s ass. Can’t wait for the Tres Bestia’s to show what they’ve got during next week’s Bleach 492 chapter.
