Upon realizing that Byakuya is a member of the Kuchiki House, Kōga decides to kill him. He breaks the remains of his Zanpakutō, causing Muramasa to release the Hollows contained within him. While Ichigo and Rukia deal with this threat, Byakuya and Kōga battle it out. Senbonzakura reveals that Byakuya was only pretending to be a traitor in order to find and kill Kōga, as his Grandfather wished.
