Ichigo's Capture Net! Escape From Soul Society!

is the three hundred ninteenth episode of the Bleach anime.

As Uryū battles Inaba, Ichigo and Rukia attempt to escape from Seireitei.

Summary
Uryū Ishida confronts Kageroza Inaba, who has pinned Kon, in Ichigo's body, to the wall. Uryū calls forcing Nozomi Kujō down a bad habit and asks Kon if his master would approve of him doing so much, to which Kon yells that Ichigo is not his master. As he yells though, Inaba releases a Hadō no. 4 at Uryū, who quickly dodges using Hirenkyaku. Inaba reasons then that Uryū must be a Quincy. Inaba asks Uryū what his interest in him is and the Quincy responds that he does not want to see Inaba bring trouble to the town. Inaba says he does not want an incident but if Uryū gets in his way, he will eliminate him. Uryū responds that he already considers Inaba an enemy. Inaba waves off his Reigai lieutenants, saying he will take care of things before staring down Uryū, who readies his bow.

In Soul Society, Rukia Kuchiki asks Ichigo what they will do as they look at footage of Nozomi in the Human World. Ichigo says they will return to the Human world but Rukia says that the Seireitei is not the one they know, they are in enemy territory. Rukia says that they will not be able to slip through the Senkaimon as the Reigai will likely be guarding it. Yoruichi Shihōin then appears and says not to worry. Rukia asks what happened to her pursuers and Yoruichi says that they could not keep up with her. Ichigo praises her for getting away but Rukia says that she does not think they will cease guarding the Senkaimon. Yoruichi says that she does not believe so either which is why they will charge head on. Rukia expresses her concern with this, saying that it will be extremely difficult. Yoruichi says that they will break through because they are fakes.

Back in the Human World, Uryū sends a hail of arrows at Inaba, who has no difficulty dodging them. Uryū fires a Seele Schneider hidden in his mass of arrows but Inaba deflects it. Inaba takes a look at the Seele Schneider and is able to figure out how it works. Uryū affirms this and notes that Inaba looks similar to a certain scientist he despises. Inaba correctly guesses that Uryū is referring to Captain Kurotsuchi. Inaba says that Kurotsuchi is his superior officer, prompting Uryū to think that is why Inaba knew about his Seele Schneider but Inaba says that it is the first time he has seen it and that he can analyze it on the spot. He says that he is a composed scientist unlike his captain. Uryū interrupts him however, firing two arrows at him and forcing him to dodge. Inaba appears on the roof by Uryū and tells him that his arrows lack the speed to catch him. Uryū says that he is aware of that and appears over Inaba, firing a hail of arrows. Inaba dodges to a nearby roof and Uryū sneaks behind him, firing a Seele Schneider through Inaba's chest and sending him to the ground, dead. Uryū goes to the body and puts his bow away, explaining that he knew his bow could catch Inaba so he increased the speed of his Hirenkyaku to catch him. He says that it is a shame he is not very fond of Kurotsuchi and that if he was not his enemy, they could have been friends. Uryū begins to walk away but the real Inaba appears on the wall by Uryū, saying he greatly respects his captain. However, he finds himself superior in all aspects. Inaba then releases his Zanpakutō, Raiku. Uryū raises his bow but Inaba says it is pointless as he will not give Uryū time to figure things out. Inaba activates his ability and suddenly appears behind Uryū, who falls to the ground, badly injured.

On the rooftops of Seireitei, Yoruichi, Ichigo and and Rukia prepare to assault the Senkaimon. The reigai notice their arrival and all come out. Yoruichi says that they do not need to attack as they can only hold the boundary for a limited time. The reigai assault the team and gain the upper hand, putting Ichigo and Rukia on the defensive. As Sajin Komamurauses his Shikai, Yoruichi, Rukia and Ichigo pop, revealing themselves to be the portable Gigai developed by Kisuke Urahara. The real Ichigo then unleashes a Getsuga Tenshō and the group runs towards the Senkaimon in the resulting explosion. Rukia berates Ichigo for messing up the timing and he apologizes, saying those were difficult to operate. As they reach the Senkaimon though, Yoruichi is knocked back by the reigai Byakuya Kuchiki. Yoruichi catches herself though and plows herself into the back of the 6th Division's captain. Byakuya asks if she is sacrificing herself and Yoruichi asks what he would say if she said yes before kicking him away. Yoruichi tells Ichigo and Rukia to go, as she will stop the reigai. Ichigo hesitates but Yoruichi yells at him and he thanks her before turning around to leave. The reigai try to pursue them but Yoruichi activates her Shunkō and easily defeats most of the reigai. Yoruichi tells Byakuya that the reigai are near perfect but are overly aggressive compared to the originals and that is why their tactic worked. She tells him that she will not let him pass and Byakuya responds by saying that he will have to eliminate her then and raises his Reiatsu. She comments that they may be copies but their powers are impressive.
