Bleach 551 explains why Quincy’s have such an advantage, Jugram Hashwalth mentions that the Captains are unable to do much since they’ve not been taught how to defend properly against Quincy techniques. Toshiro gets himself hurt and escapes. To which Rangiku is nowhere to be found. Toshiro sets a trap and gets a strong attack but Bazz-B destroys it only using his finger. Next up he uses two to get a critical hit on Toshiro to which it seems as though he could die here and now! Cang Du then shows up.
Bleach 551 as Haschwalth notices there to be a barrier type object in front of him. He touches it with his sword and notices that he can’t get through, his sword is being reflected or absorbed. Ise Nanao enables her Hakudan Keppki which temporarily prevents intrusions from those possessing Quincy Powers. Haschwalth names her asking if she’s responsible for this. She mentions that her position was given to her due to her ability to create such Kidou.
Shunsui goes to mention that this wasn’t the only reason, she shuts him up. She mentions that it was a mistake for him to leave his residual reiatsu all over the place, due to that they were able to prepare. He asks a further question if she developed this Kidou to be used by other captains, she answers him. A large explosion appears behind Ise and Shunsui. Haschwalth mentions that it was stupid to complete the technique, she should have laid out the blueprints so that anyone could use it.
Then the captains wouldn’t be in a one-sided execution and be slaughtered in it. Bazz-B chases after Toshiro, a wall is created to which he slices through, waiting for him there is a ice mist. However after a little while he uses his Burning Stomp to which it blows off all the ice. Bazz-B mentions that he’s just going to stand there, while he could at least try hiding.
Toshiro mentions that he didn’t have a strategy however it give him enough time to setup a trap to which we see Bazz-B on top of a strange pattern, it begins to form ice particles to which Toshiro speaks Rokui Hyouketsujin (Literally Meaning Six Coat Binding Ice Formation. However seconds later, Toshiro’s technique is destroyed into pieces. Bazz-B mentions that he can melt things with just a finger, or is he trying to make him use two fingers.
He opens two fingers out to which a large fiery explosion appears, it splits down and it seems to have gotten Toshiro right on the body diagonally, from right right to bottom left. His sword is also cut in half from such a force. Cang Du appears mentioning that they lack their Bankai, they promised that they would leave it for those who took their Bankai. He mentions that he will deal the finishing blow, from then on Toshiro’s and Sui Feng’s reiatsu are gone from which Urahara talks to Mayuri telling them how to get their Bankai back. Bleach 551 ends here.
What an incredible chapter, Bleach is getting better and better, and it seems like Toshiro is just about to die. Cang Du’s appearance here makes me think that it couldn’t be him plus where is Rangiku when you need her. Furthermore it seems that Urahara’s plans will be sent to them shortly during next week’s Bleach 552.

I’ve been wondering about something. Sui Feng (however you spell her name) perfected her Shunko and all that but why didn’t she just use that superior speed to stab BG9 twice with her Shikai to end it then and there? She most likely would’ve won instantly if she’d done that, unless it doesn’t work on robots (that seems to be what BG9 is at least). It just doesn’t make any sense to me. It’s like Kubo forgot all about Suzumebachi.
Now would be a perfect time to bring back Grimmjow. Instead of Ichigo coming to save the day as always it’d be awesome to see Grimmjow jump in and save Hitsugaya. Maybe not to defeat the Sternritters but at least buy some time for whatever it is Urahara has discovered to recover the stolen Bankais.
Bleach is mediocre right now. The reason I say that is because it’s getting slightly boring seeing the Sternritters kick the crap out of the Captains with no effort whatsoever and yet no Captain has died yet. I’m not saying I particularly *want* any of them to die but it would certainly spice things up and make things more intense, because at the time I’m not worried at all since everyone just gets saved or narrowly escapes death one way or another. Of course, this is just my opinion.

Well here’s the thing. Grimmjow is in Heco Mundo training with the other arrancers. Like shinigami, arrancars fight by emitting Reiatsu. They didn’t know how to battle Quincy cause they Absorb Reishi. Personally I believe the Vice Captain s that Learned Bankai (Like Ikkaku, Shuuhei, Rangiku, Nanao,) go and help the Captains. And I think Sui Feng got a little cockey fighting BG9 with just her Shunko. I mean BG9’s Spirit Weapon is so complex. Like its Reishi MiniGun, Reishi Tendrils, and Reishi Missiles. She really needs her Shikai to battle it. And Toshiro against Bazz-B sucks man. I consider Bazz-B powerful as Kensei. Which I believe is Kenseis Quincy rival. I don’t believe he is stronger than Yamamoto. I believe he can survive his flames, but only for a short time. Thats my opinion. Plus lots of people dont know but Bazz-B’s Spirit Weapon is his black gloves and black boots. And I believe that some of the Quincy can have their Spirit Weapon already released. Like Jugram, Quilge, and Bambietta can form Reish Sheath for their Reishi Swords. BG9 has its Reishi Armor and Reishi Tendrils under its Stern Ritter uniform. I honestly doubt Sui Feng is dead or defeated. Probably serverly injured, but not defeated. And when Nanao said she was only a candidate for Vice Captain of Squad 1 because of her Kido isn’t true. I bet Shunsui was gonna say its because she achived Bankai. Nanao was smart enough to sush him before Jugram could her. And I’m also not surprised thag Mayuri is the only one that can fight without Bankai. Cause if Sui Feng and Toshiro ha e trouble against BG9, Bazz-B and Cang Du, Than Sajin will also have trouble against Bambietta. I think he can transform into a huge ass wolf like his grandfather. Bht whatever is Bambietta’s power is must be dangerous. Cause during the first invasion, she battled Sajin, Iba, and other Squad 7 Shinigami and they were almost gonna die. Well according to Bambietta.

Hmm maybe, I’m just wondering where Rangiku is gone…

No. It wasn’t Toshiros ice clone. If it was, it would have looked like broken glass. Plus he can only use that technique in Bankai. Not Shikai.

And I believe Rangiku is planning something with her Shikai to save Toshiro from Cang Du and Bazz-B.
