Bleach, Vol. 10 : Tattoo on the Sky

Ichigo Kurosaki never asked for the ability to see ghosts - he was born with the gift. When his family is attacked by a Hollow, a malevolent lost soul, Ichigo becomes a Soul Reaper, dedicating his life to protecting the innocent and helping the tortured spirits themselves find peace. Find out why Tite Kubo's Bleachhas become an international manga smash-hit! With the help of Kukaku, a one-armed explosives expert and old friend of the mysterious talking cat Yoruichi, Ichigo and crew are one step closer to infiltrating the Soul Society and rescuing their friend Rukia before she is executed. For Kukaku's plan to work, Ichigo must control his enormous reservoir of spiritual energy, and there's no telling how much collateral damage thiswill cause. Meanwhile, the Soul Society hasn't been twiddling their collective thumbs, and quickly dispatches a delegation of captains to give the unwanted visitors the rudest of welcomings imaginable.
