355. Azul-Blood Splash

The captains Shunsui, Hitsugaya, and Soifon continue their fight against the Espadas Starrk, Harribel, and Barragan. Harribel decides to put an end to her and Hitsugaya's fight by releasing her Zanpakutō and slicing Hitsugaya in half.

Summary
Sajin Komamura starts to heal his fellow Shinigami and watches with Izuru the fights happening before them. Starrk swipes at Shunsui destroying part of his hat. He comments towards Starrk that he's pretty strong. Starrk replies saying that he's suprised how he can keep on dodging his attacks like that without loosing his hat or kimono.

Hitsugaya and Harribel continue to fight. Harribel shoots a projectile at Hitsugaya called "Projectile Azule" and it comes right at him.

Meanwhile, both Soifon and [[Marechiyo Ōmaeda are exhausted from fighting Barragan. Barragan comments that they can't even budge him. He then smashs his fist through his throne of bones, pulling out a large, axe-shaped Zanpakutō. Marechiyo tells Soifon that she should hurry and remove the limitations set on her in the real world but Soifon tells him that the limitations were already removed.

Meanwhile, with Hitsugaya smashed against the ground, Harribel is surprised that this was a captain's strength and that her Fracción were defeated by this. She then holds out her sword and releases it, revealing her Resurrección. Before Hitsugaya can react, the right half of his body is cut clean off.
