Summary
After rescuing Uryū Ishida from the Arrancar attacking him, Ryūken Ishida offers to restore his powers on the condition he never associates with. Kon continues to flee from the Grand Fisher; despite receiving help from Ririn, Kurōdo, and Noba, he is caught. Isshin Kurosaki, Ichigo's father, arrives to save him. Ichigo and Shinji Hirako recognize a new presence, and neither can identify that it is Isshin. Before leaving, Ichigo declines Shinji Hirako's invitation. The Grand Fisher draws his Zanpakutō, transforming into a stronger state, and Isshin, identifying the Grand Fisher as an Arrancar, dispatches him in a single attack.
