Ep60HitsugayaChasesIzuru

Hitsugaya chasing Kira.

Tōshirō Hitsugaya, the Tenth Division Captain suspecting something off with the murder of Sōsuke Aizen goes to the Central 46 Chambers to investigate with his Lieutenant, Rangiku Matsumoto. He finds the Central 46 massacred but is interrupted by the arrival of Izuru Kira, lieutenant of the 3rd Division. They follow him out but Kira asks him if he should be follwing him instead of protecting Momo Hinamori lieutenant of the 5th Division whom he had left in the 10th division's barracks safe behind a barrier. But Kira tells him that his barrier though strong against outside attacks is easy to break from within and that Momo had been following Hitsugaya all along. Hearing this Hitsugaya leaves Rangiku Matsumoto to deal with Izuru Kira and goes back looking for Momo Hinamori.[2]
