Arc 1Ten Unohana’s Rebellion

Ten Unohana grew from a secretly born child into a powerful fighter who turned against Soul Society, killed captains, and escaped to Hueco Mundo. After building his strength and gathering allies there, he fought Baraggan and Starrk, leaving Baraggan badly wounded and accepting Starrk as a friend.

  • Retsu Unohana concealed her pregnancy, gave birth to Ten in Hueco Mundo, and brought him to Soul Society, where she hid his unusual origins and helped him suppress his Hollow power.
  • Ten learned to fuse with his Hollow self and discovered that his Zanpakuto grew stronger through slaughter, then told Retsu that he planned to leave Soul Society.
  • Ten massacred residents in Zaraki District, met Kenpachi Zaraki and Yachiru, recruited Rangiku Matsumoto, and began preparing for a campaign against the captains.
  • Ten trained at Shin'ō Academy and under Retsu, while Soul Society named him a candidate to succeed the 11th Division captain.
  • Ten lured captains into a Space-Time Barrier, killed six of them, and was sealed in Muken by Yamamoto after his Zanpakuto escaped.
  • Shasha and Ginhime freed Ten in Hueco Mundo, where he hunted Hollows, made Cirucci Sanderwicci his Fracción, and later stole an Asauchi during the Quincy war.
  • Ten trained to overcome Soul Society’s seal, gathered Harribel and other Hollows around him, and prepared to face Baraggan and Starrk.
  • Ten used his weapons and Blood Moon powers to badly injure Baraggan, who fled to Las Noches to recover, while Starrk called Ten his friend and agreed to find him a home.
