In his fight, Kira managed to draw blood against his opponent, Avirama Redder, who proceeded to release his zanpakuto, Aguila. Meanwhile, Yumichika and his opponent, Charlotte Cuulhorne, the strange feminine arrancar, continued their fight, which appeared at first to be more of a “beauty contest” than an actual fight, because the two spar while declaring the other to be ugly; however, both decide that the victor shall be the most beautiful. Charlotte used several attacks, each given a ridiculously long name, which were able to injure Yumichika. When Yumichika managed to cut off some of Charlotte’s hair, the Arrancar was enraged and released his sword, Reina de Rosas which means “Queen of the Roses”. Now stronger than Yumichika, the fight escalated until Charlotte trapped Yumichika in a prison of black thorns, which completely encased the combatants and their reiatsu, hiding Yumichika’s death from everyone.
