In order to stop the Jigoku and help Kalia get back to her world, her friends were able to make their way to her and help her in this battle. Michael was able to defeat Omada and that left with only three members of the Jigoku remain. Kalia and her other friends were dealing with them such as how Ryo was fighting Tetsuda. The two of them kept clashing their weapons against each other as it appeared to be an even match. When Tetsuda shot his trident forward, Ryo held up his katana and was able to block it.

"You're good." Tetsuda said.

"It's rather strange. We fought once before back in my world, but I had help from my captain back then." Ryo said. "This is actually a great way to see just how much I've improved compared to back then." Ryo was able to push the trident away and tried to strike with his katan, but Tetsuda jumped away. It seemed like the two of them were evenly matched at the moment. Meanwhile, Ichika can't seem to take her eyes off of Ryo as he was fighting. Finding out that he's the son of her parents made this very weird for her, but at least he's here to help. Hopefully, they can defeat the last of the Jigoku in time.

Sai

Sai was fighting Masco in this mess. Masco expected this to be an easy fight since Sai didn't even appear to have a weapon, but Sai proved him wrong. Sai is capable of holding his own in a fight using just his hands for combat and holds surprising strength.

"Quit playing with me!" Masco shouted as he swung his giant blade at him, but Sai flipped backwards and was able to avoid it. Sai went right at him again and tried to strike Masco with his fist, but Masco avoided it. Masco noticed how Sai was able to crack a concrete wall and didn't injured his hand. "I said quit playing!" He shouted as he swung his giant blade again. Sai ducked down from it, but Masco cut right through the building and made it look easy.

"No one is playing around here." Sai said.

"I don't get it. How the hell are you putting so much force behind your attacks?" Masco questioned. "How is it you're so physically strong when you don't look that special to me."

"Nothing too special." Sai said. "It's rather easy once you understand it. All I'm really doing is focusing my spirit energy into my hands and feet when I attack. When I do that, my physical strength gets an increase and makes my strikes stronger."

"That's it?" Masco said. "It's just simple energy manipulation? It sounds so simple and basic."

"Maybe it does, but it works for me." Sai said as he spun around and tried landing a kick against him, but Masco held up his blade and blocked it. Despite that, he was still pushed back as he slid against his feet and was still standing.

"Well, now that I'm understanding how your little trick works, I think I got the hang of it." Masco said as he was starting to get cocky once again.

"Is that so?!" Sai said as he kept the attacks going. He tried to land another strike right at Masco's head, but Masco moved his head out of the way and grabbed him by the arm.

"You might have some strong fists, but I still have the longer reach!" Masco said as he threw Sai back and then kicked him right in the gut. Masco was getting cocky thinking he can beat Sai, but he does want this to be fun. He kept swinging his blade at him and kept forcing Sai to dodge and move back. "Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!" He kept daring him to attack as he kept forcing Sai to move back. Masco then raised his sword up and looked like he was planning to slice Sai in half. Sai jumped out of the way, but Masco smashed his blade against the ground and unleashed a powerful shockwave. The shockwave smashed against Sai before he even hit the ground. When that happened, Sai was sent flying down the street. "If that's all you got, you're dead!"

"Oh yeah?!" Sai said as he positioned himself to plant his feet against a pole and was able to jump off from it. Sai threw a punch at him again, but Masco ducked down with Sai going right over him. Sai instinctively moved after that as he placed his hands against the ground and tried shooting his legs at Masco, but Masco jumped in the air and avoided him again. When that happened, Masco aimed his blade right at him and attempted to pierce right through Sai. Masco came right down, but Sai moved out of the way and he only hit ground.

"I'm not done yet!" Masco called as he aimed his blade right at Sai and fired his beam.

"Damn!" Sai said as there was no time for him to dodge and got blasted by his attack. After he got blasted, Sai rolled against the ground and appeared to be hurt.

"You might have some fancy moves, but that's not going to help you against me." Masco said as he walked right over to him. "All you have are your hands and feet. Not only do I have my blade, but I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that allows me to fight from a distance. I have the longer reach, so you can't win." Sai was trying to figure out how he was going to get out of this one. As he tried to get back up, he looked to the sky and saw Kalia was still fighting Oromaus. If she was fighting, he had to fight.

"I'm not beaten yet." Sai said as he was able to stand.

"You're not giving up?" Masco questioned.

"Not a chance. Not when my girl needs me the most." Sai said.

"You're what?" Masco questioned.

"Well, she's not my girl." Sai said. "Despite how I feel about her, I know she doesn't feel the same about me. At least she doesn't quite just yet. She's still available, no ring on that finger, so I still got a shot."

"What are you babbling about?" Masco questioned.

"Kalia and I have been friends for a long time." Sai said. "We did go on one date, but I think that was out of pity. I lost my birth father, and she knows what it's like not to have a father around. From the very start, I knew she was amazing. I just didn't know how amazing she could be." Sai remembers all the times he had with Kalia well. Despite how they were never together like how he wanted, they still had adventures together and he saw himself how powerful and incredible she was. There was the time she fought his hollowfied father, when they went to the Soul Society for the first time, and all the times she defeated whatever enemy they faced. "No matter what, she just keeps pushing on ahead."

"Do I look like I care for your life story?" Masco said. "All I want to hear you say is your plead for mercy!" Masco charged right at him again to attack, but Sai was ready for it. He jumped out of the way, but Masco kept the attacks going.

"There was a point to what I was saying." Sai said. "Ever since my power was awakened and I learned about Kalia being a soul reaper, I saw it as a chance. A chance for me to be closer to her and help her when she really needs it. Even if it's just with my hands, I'm not giving up the fight."

"I don't want you to give it up. What I want is for me to kill you!" Masco said. "You can't keep dodging me forever!" He raised his sword and was getting ready to finish Sai off, but Sai wasn't planning to run this time.

"Even if it is just my hands, Kalia needs my help. She never gives up the fight, so I won't give it up either!" Sai said as he was focusing all the power he could into his fist and actually tried to fight back with just his fist.

"What a stupid move! I'll cut right through that arm with the rest of you!" Masco shouted, but something strange happened. It made contact with Sai's fist, but it didn't cut through. Sai put so much power into it that the blade actually broke. Masco was actually astonished that something like that actually happened. "What...?! How the hell...?" He questioned as he didn't get how something like that happened.

"I'm not going to say something cheesy like it was my love for Kalia or something, but I will say...I'm just that good!" Sai claimed as he smashed his fist right into Masco's face. The force of that attack caused him to be thrown off his feet and caused him to slide against the ground. Sai was beginning to overpower Masco now and all he was using was just his fists. Once Masco pulled himself together, he sat up and saw Sai coming. Masco couldn't fathom it. How was it that Sai was beating him now.

"Damn you!" Masco shouted as he still kept trying to fight with whatever was left of his weapon in a desperate attack. Masco swung whatever was left of his blade, but Sai ducked down from his attack. Once that happened, Sai gave Masco a strong uppercut that threw him for a loop for a moment. When Masco was left wide open after that, Sai gave him a powerful roundhouse kick right in his left side. There was a lot of force and power in that kick. Masco felt it as he held his side and dropped to his knees and he felt like the wind was knocked right out of him. It was so painful that he could barely keep himself together.

"Maybe I overdid it with that last one." Sai said as he did feel a little bad. "I guess this means our fight is over. If you keep going now, you're only going to make it worse for you." He tried to warn Masco to give up the fight, but Masco wouldn't listen. He tightened his grip on what was left of his weapon and tried swinging it up. It did cut Sai a little, but the cut was too shallow to deal any real damage.

"I can still fight." Masco claimed as he just simply refused to give up.

"I didn't want to do this, but it seems you're not leaving me with much choice." Sai said as he got another attack ready, but it was different this time. He was focusing even more power for this attack and it was starting to look like electricity was crackling around his fist. Masco could feel the power of that attack just by being near him. It was actually making Masco a little nervous.

"This... This can't be happening... Not to me!" Masco said as he wasn't so cocky anymore.

"I remember you were a cocky bastard before, so I don't feel as bad about doing this. See you in Hell!" Sai declared as he struck Masco with that power filled fist and it left a large impact on the ground. It caused an explosion of dirt and dust to go off with the explosion not going unnoticed.

"What just happened?!" Ichigo said as they all looked towards what happened with him. When the dust cleared away, Sai was taking deep breaths with Masco laying right in a crater. Eyes rolled back, mouth opened wide, and scorch mark right on his chest. With the lack of any spiritual pressure, these are all clear indications that Masco is dead and another one of the Jigoku has been defeated. Sai actually did it. He managed to defeat an enemy with just his fists.

"That was for you, Kalia. Who knows what kind of trouble these guys gave you before your knight in shining armor came." Sai said as he tried to find some delight in this, but that fight did tire him out. Just then, his little celebration was cut short when he heard some sort of other explosion. "Ryo!" He said as he could sense Ryo's struggling spiritual pressure.

...

Ryo

Ryo was still facing his opponent, but Tetsuda was a tough one. The two of them stood at a standoff as they were both waiting for the other to make a move. Ryo knew what to expect out of this one, but the fight could still go either way.

"You are good compared to some of the other soul reapers I fought." Tetsuda said as Ryo readied himself. Tetsuda took a good look at Ryo and just now noticed the pass hanging on Ryo's arm. "That pass on your arm is an indication that you are a lieutenant of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads. That must mean you have skill and capabilities."

"So what's your point?" Ryo questioned.

"Simple... I expect a challenge!" Tetsuda said as he was the first one to attack as he thrusted his trident forward. Ryo tried to stop his attack, but Tetsuda really knocked Ryo's katana out of the way. "You're mine!" He shouted as he spun around and thrusted his trident forward and there was almost no time for Ryo to dodge. He might be in trouble with this one.
