From the shadows, Orihime ran to the scene, eyes wide with horror.

“Ichigo…!” she cried, dropping to her knees.

Jin-Woo turned to her. “You loved him?”

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn’t respond.

He stepped closer, kneeling beside her. “He was brave. But this world has changed hands now.”

Orihime looked up into his glowing eyes. “Why… why did you do this?”

Jin-Woo reached out, brushing a tear from her cheek.

“Because power always finds a new king,” he said.

And before she could answer, he leaned in, pressing his lips to hers—soft, brief, but final.

The shadows rippled behind him, and Karakura Town fell under a new monarch’s rule.

Raikage approached from beyond the rubble, he gave a smirk to Jin Woo as he returned a subtle wink, Raikage is going to come too.
