Hitsugaya releases his Hyoten Hyakkaso, an attack that manipulates the weather then uses it to dramatically increase its power, and successfully freezes Harribel, trapping her in a tower of ice. Meanwhile, Soifon and Omaeda continue their fight against Barragan. He explains how each Espada represents an aspect of death, with his being aging. He demonstrates this aspect on Soifon: first, by slowing her reaction time, making her unable to land any of her attacks on him, then by grabbing her shoulder and aging it to the point that it breaks from frailty. Omaeda and Soifon devise a strategy and attack Barragan but Omaeda hesitates at the last moment and it fails. Barragan then releases his zanpakuto, Arrogante, and unleashes his Respira, a dark cloud that decays everything in its path. His Respira chases after Soifon and manages to reach her left hand, withering it down to the bone then begins to spread up her arm. Soifon, realizing that her whole body will decay unless drastic action is taken, orders Omaeda to cut off her left arm before the Respira can spread further, which he does.
