Shunsui and Ukitake decide to fight their teacher, and both use the shikai of their zanpakutÅ. Meanwhile, Soifon begins to fight Yoruichi, her former commander and teacher, and gains the advantage after she begins using her shikai. Believing she has the advantage, Soifon activates a nameless technique she recently discovered which greatly increases her power. However, Yoruichi activates the same technique, calling it "flash cry".
