Sōsuke Aizen
After Orihime is captured by [[Sōsuke Aizen]], Chad joins Ichigo and his friends to rescue her from Hueco Mundo. After making their way to Las Noches and the group splits up, Chad runs into the Privaron Espada [[List of hollows in Bleach#Gantenbainne Mosqueda|Gantenbainne Mosqueda]]. His victory is short-lived, however, as the 5th Espada, [[List of hollows in Bleach#Nnoitora Jiruga|Nnoitora Jiruga]], severely wounds him and leaves him for dead. Chad and Gantenbainne are eventually found by the Exequias, who plan to finish them off, but [[Retsu Unohana]] and [[Isane Kotetsu]] interrupt, and the former heals him. He later appears with Rukia and Renji to aid Ichigo and fight off the Exequias, but is defeated by the Cero Espada Yammy.
