The following story adapts the high-stakes confrontation from Bleach Episode 337, "The Chosen Soldier," where the battle against the Reigai clones reaches a fever pitch. The Mirror's Edge
In the distance, the sky over the Soul Society was being torn apart. The Gotei 13 were locked in a desperate struggle against their own doubles. Ichigo watched as Kageroza Inaba, the puppet master behind the Reigai uprising, watched from a floating spire. Inaba’s goal was simple: to reclaim the power of the soul he had split in two.
"You're fighting a mirror," Inaba’s voice echoed throughout the district. "And the mirror never tires."
"Is that all, Ichigo?" the clone sneered, its voice a hollow vibration of his own. It held its blade with a casual, terrifying familiarity.
"I’m not a mirror," Ichigo hissed, his eyes narrowing as he pushed his blade against his clone’s. "I'm the one who breaks them."
Ichigo let out a guttural roar, the black energy of Getsuga Tensho swirling around his blade. He didn't have the luxury of strategy or a long-term plan. He threw himself forward, a streak of black and crimson. The blades collided with a sound like a mountain splitting open.
Ichigo felt his spiritual pressure flickering. The hollowization was a heavy weight, a ticking clock in his chest. Across the courtyard, he saw Rukia and Renji struggling against clones that possessed every memory and maneuver they had ever learned. The Reigai didn't just fight like them; they were them, without the burden of exhaustion.
