Rangiku Matsumoto vs. Nakeem Grindina

Rangiku Matsumoto vs. Nakeem Greendina is a battle during The Cold War that takes place in Karakura Town. After Ulquiorra Cifer and Yammy Riyalgo attack Karakura Town, Rangiku Matsumoto and a couple of other Shinigami are assigned to defend the town from the Arrancar. At the same time Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez decides to go to Karakura Town with his Fracción because of Ulquiorra's failure to kill Ichigo Kurosaki. When they get there Shawlong Kūfang tells Grimmjow that there are more opponents now that weren't mentioned by Ulquiorra and Grimmjow tells them to use Pesquisa to find an opponent to battle. Once they all find an opponent to battle, they all head out to their destination. Nakeem Greendina and Shawlong decide to head over to where Rangiku and Tōshirō Hitsugaya are. When they reach their destination Shawlong goes to fight Hitsugaya, while Nakeem decides to fight Rangiku.

Battle
When the battle between Rangiku and Nakeem is shown, Rangiku is already near unconsciousness. Later when Hitsugaya is heavily injured by Shawlong, Rangiku and Nakeem look over to see what happened. She then gets a message stating that a limit release has been approved and Nakeem attempts to stomp on Rangiku's head. Rangiku easily blocks the attack though and contacts Hitsugaya and Renji Abarai. She tells them that the limit release has finally been approved and then yells out the words "limit release".

Rangiku explains to Nakeem that a limit release is a process applied to captains and lieutenants of the Gotei 13 to prevent unnecessary ripples in the balance of the Human World. The symbols of their respective divisions are placed on them to seal 80% of their Reiatsu but after getting them removed, your power becomes 5 times greater. Nakeem decides to punch Rangiku but she easily blocks it with her Zanpakutō. Rangiku then tells him he's a lot slower than before and asks him what he used before to get here at such amazing speed. Nakeem appears behind Rangiku and states that it was Sonído. He then attacks her but Rangiku appears behind Nakeem and explains that around here it's called Shunpo. She then makes a huge cut across Nakeem's back and releases her Zanpakutō, Haineko. Nakeem attempts to retreat after Shawlong orders him to but Rangiku is able to cut him down and kill him.

Aftermath
Rangiku comes out of her battle relatively unharmed, but an injured Hitsugaya falls down onto the rooftop she's standing on. She calls for Orihime Inoue to come and heal him, to which she does so immediately.
