Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War starts with the 12th division discovering that Hollows are suddenly disappearing in large groups.
Two days after this incident, a strange man suddenly appears on Ichigo’s bed and introduces himself as Asguiaro Ebern. Ichigo asks him if he is an Arrancar, which in turn makes Ebern furious, and he summons a Spirit Weapon.
Meanwhile, in Soul Society, in the 1st Division barracks, as Yamamoto is being given a report from the other divisions, he is confronted by several masked men who have come to declare war.
As Ichigo fights Ebern, he wonders why Ebern is using a Quincy Cross and has a medallion. On the other hand, in Soul Society, one of the masked men declares that the Wandenreich will destroy Soul Society in five days.
