Keigo wonders if this has to do with Ichigo and Tatsuki remarks that it has to be, but since it's Ichigo, he'll do something about it. Tatsuki tells Keigo that she recently walked around the edge of town and it felt as if the town had been transported somewhere else, since there are only mountains surrounding the area. Tatsuki warns Keigo not to touch Chizuru inappropriately, but Keigo remarks about her chest and Tatsuki punches him again. In Karakura Town, Keigo apologizes to Tatsuki and helps her bring the sleeping Chizuru HonshЕЌ and Michiru Ogawa to their school. Keigo and Tatsuki carry their classmates. With Ichigo settled into his meditative pose again, Isshin reveals that what he's doing is called Jinzen and explains its nature to his son. Isshin repeats his instructions to him, but Ichigo says he knows that and closes his eyes. Ichigo tells him that he has never gone to his inner world by relaxing and that he does not really understand what he is supposed to be doing. After Ichigo dodges, Isshin complains that he was not focused on his meditation, asking if he is unable to communicate with his own ZanpakutЕЌ. He then begins to annoy Tatsuki, causing her to punch Keigo in the face.Д«ack in the Dangai, Ichigo is shown meditating and Isshin tries to hit him. Keigo asks Tatsuki if she has noticed that everyone else is sleeping and then he tells her he is glad to see her alive. As he calls out for someone to wake up, he is struck by Tatsuki Arisawa, knocking him over. In Karakura Town, Keigo Asano runs around and notices that everyone else is sleeping, causing him to become worried. He urges Ichigo to use that time to get information from his ZanpakutЕЌ about the true nature of the Final Getsuga TenshЕЌ. Isshin states that he will hold back the KЕЌryЕ« for as long as he can, estimating that it will be about 2,000 hours. Isshin removes four small forked blades from his uniform and ties them to himself before inserting them into the Dangai's walls. Stating that Soul Society cannot suppress the KЕЌtotsu, he reveals that there is a way to stop the KЕЌryЕ«, called KaikyЕЌ Kotei.

With the KЕЌtotsu gone, Isshin identifies it as a chance to buy some time. Isshin notes that thanks to Kisuke Urahara's technological prowess, Ichigo and the other Ryoka were only affected by a few days when they originally entered Soul Society. Isshin continues his explanation, stating that if one is caught by the KЕЌryЕ«, they will become stuck and die, while if one is chased by the KЕЌtotsu, they will be flung into a time far removed from when they entered the Dangai. Isshin tells a confused Ichigo that when 1 year passes outside the Dangai, 2,000 years will have passed in the Dangai. Ichigo asks Isshin Kurosaki what he meant by being able to teach him the Final Getsuga TenshЕЌ here and Isshin explains about how the Dangai is an isolated space which is surrounded by numerous stacked-up layers of time's current, resulting in it being a place where the density of time within it is extremely high when compared to other exterior dimensions.
