Ashisogi Jizo is blown apart from the inside by the emerging Pernida.

Elsewhere, Ichigo engages Askin in battle, while Yoruichi and Orihime tend to Grimmjow.

Lille continues to target the Soul Reapers, forcing Shunsui to step in and use his Zanpakuto's Shikai children game attacks to stall him. As per Shunsui's orders, Nanao instructs the others to continue ahead, while she runs back to join Shunsui.

After his rifle is severed by Shunsui, Lille explains that the rifle is part of him, made from Reishi and that he was the first Quincy to receive power from Yhwach, referring to himself as God's messenger sent to punish sinners.

Lille then fully activates his Vollstandig, turning into an angelic, eight-winged being who supposedly cannot be killed by any weapon, and gravely injures Shunsui. Shunsui is forced to use his Bankai, Katen Kyokotsu Karamatsu Shinju on him, which envelops most of Wahr Welt. Within this area, Shunsui can initiate various theater plays composed of several acts, this time selecting a play composed of four acts with two actors, him and Lille.

With act 1, he reflects his injuries onto his opponent, with act 2 he infects Lille with an illness, with act 3 he plummets them both into an infinite sea and with the final act, he uses a thread made up of Lille's supposed regret for harming him to decapitate him.

After Lille's body crashes down, Shunsui collapses and is comforted by his Zanpakuto spirit, Ohana..
