Ichigo and Uryu, Bonded Back to Back

Uryuu fights Yammy separate from the group, using the majority of his Quincy techniques to attempt to defeat this giant arrancar, all the while luring him into a trap. Using mines he had gotten from Mayuri Kurotsuchi and planting them on every floor of the fifth tower, Uryuu succeeds in dropping Yammy all the way to ground level. Meanwhile, Rukia has difficulty in dispatching Rudbornn and the Exequias until Chad and Renji show up to give her a hand. Ichigo, still battling Ulquiorra, dons his hollow mask and starts to overwhelm his opponent. Ulquiorra breaks through the canopy of Las Noches in order to release his zanpakutou, Murciélago while stating the only 2 rules for inside of Las Noches: the first rule is Grand Rey Cero and the second rule is Espadas 1 to 4 cannot release their zanpakutou. His sword release gives him large bat-like wings, raising his abilities to the point where he nearly decapitates Ichigo with his first attack.
