After a thousand years, the blood war between the Shinigami and the Ruinsmaster has begun.
Acting Shinigami Ichigo Kurosaki does not hesitate to throw himself into the battle to save the Corpse Realm from a sudden attack by the "Unseen Empire.

However, the invasion of the Knights of the Star Cross, under the orders of Juhabach, the founder of the "Destroyers," leaves many Shinigami tragically scattered one after the other.
Even the leader of the 13th Goryo Squadron struggles against the Knights of the Star Cross, who have the means to take away the swastika, and Ichigo, who is also struggling, is unable to do enough in the face of Youhabach, and his sword is broken.

Ichigo's father, Isshin, tells him the secret of Ichigo's birth.
It is the secret of Ichigo's birth. Ichigo's father, a Shinigami, and his mother, an exterminator, remember their encounters and partings.
Ichigo, who has come to know himself and stood up again with determination, is now guided to step into the time of training.
With his newfound power in his hands, he will protect his precious friends and everything he holds dear.

Meanwhile, Ishida Uryu, a descendant of the "Ruuninshi," has been acting in a different manner from Ichigo.
What is the answer that Uryu has arrived at after unraveling the records and seeking the truth?

The "successor" named by Juhabach causes a stir in the "Unseen Empire," and the war situation changes to a new phase.
