Urahara Kisuke identified magic as a Reishi-based power and proposed that witches and Quincy shared an origin in the West Bureau, leaving Tsuna to consider the buried history behind that connection.

Tsuna learned that the West Bureau’s Fairy Tale Dragons had once escaped Hell through an unstable breach, which the Soul King Palace sealed with a power renewed every century. He then joined the West Bureau Magicians and Nel on a journey to the Seireitei, where Urahara Kisuke received a WB coin that could help improve his spirit-body conversion technology.

• Kyōraku agreed to cooperate and called a captains’ meeting, where the captains reacted with resentment to being asked to stage a fight and discussed limiting themselves to powers they had mastered.
