**Team Bankotsu** is the one of the teams protagonists participated from the Second Warriors War till the Fifth Warriors War. Team Bankotsu represents strength and overwhelming powers. This team has been formed by Bankotsu.

## Second Warriors War

### Start Wars

After Itachi, Sesshōmaru and Byakuya left Gotei 13, they were on their way to InuYasha's homeland which was now ravaged by war started by Sasuke. This led to the start of the Second Warriors War.

At some point, he reunited with a chiropteran and his old childhood friend, Hagi who explained he had no powers, but would somewhat lend assistance. Sesshōmaru decided to recruit Hagi into his team which was renamed SHIB Team.

He again faced his old foe, Sasuke who sought his powers especially the bakusaiga. Seeing Sasuke was willing to murder Itachi for his powers; Hagi, Sesshōmaru and Byakuya defended Itachi. Sakura Haruno, another member of Sasuke's faction sought to distract the SHIB Team only to be barred by Kenshin Himura who eliminated her. The SHIB Team (excluding Itachi) killed Sasuke for the second time.

### Akatsuki's assault

After learning Sasuke was killed, Pein and his faction entered the battle. Sesshōmaru also faced Tobi who believed him to be a jinchūriki and destroyed his right arm, prompting him to flee. Later, he was faced by another Uchiha warrior, Madara Uchiha who was ambitious about the Eye of the Moon Plan. He also vanquished Kakuzu who placed a bounty on his head and later an evil clone of Byakuya.

### Reverse Time

Enemies reversed time back to the start of the Second Warriors War to have Sasuke returned. Team Bankotsu prepared to deal with Sasuke.

### Sasuke's mad desires

Days later, Sesshōmaru faced Sasuke who murdered countless of warriors and gained newly developed powers - Kirin. With this, Sasuke murdered Bankotsu along with InuYasha, Itachi, Jin Kariya, Saya Otonashi, Morte Āshera, Kyrie Illunis, Shiori Momono, Sai Yamanaka and Tenten. Zaraki Kenpachi took over Bankotsu's place as leader.

Worse, Naraku murdered Kagura . Unable to save Kagura from death, Sesshōmaru felt saddened. Again he faced Naruto in Round 2, but this time he retreated to a secluded place where he felt his tenseiga powered up and revived some if not all the warriors who died. Feeling relieved by this, Sesshōmaru was certain he could turn the tide. Later, he was beset by Orochimaru's spies.

### Akatsuki-Espada War

Team Bankotsu watched the Akatsuki warriors entered Hueco Mundo and faced Organisation XIII (in fillers only) and later Espada for Aizen's betrayal.

Throughout the course of the Second Warriors War, Sesshōmaru encountered Hiroku and eliminated this demonic warrior. At the end of the Second Warriors War, Aizen subtly sent some Zetsu's clones to take on the form of the Espada. He also encountered Dark San's evil counterpart.

## Third Warriors War

### Aizen's threat

At the end of the Third Warriors War, Team Bankotsu saw Sesshōmaru facing an old enemy - Yuè who now works with Aizen.

## Fourth Warriors War

### Tobi's plan

After learning Tobi initiated the Fourth Warriors War, Team Bankotsu assisted Team Jin and the Straw Hats to take down enemy ships and Tobi's warriors.

### Tenten's gone missing

As Jin was in search for Tenten who was held hostage by Blackbeard, Bee was rather disappointed wondering as to why Naruto would forfeit his morals for Sasuke and followed him to death. Later Kenpachi had a battle with Don Krieg.

### The ultimate showdown between InuYasha and Tobi

Upon the reincarnation of an undead Madara Uchiha, Team Bankotsu played a great role during the Fourth Warriors War. Kenpachi (later joined by Byakuya Kuchiki) enjoyed a good fight with Madara, believing "his reiatsu" was equal to his. During the time when InuYasha was locked in a fight with Tobi and the undead Jinchūriki, Kenpachi and Byakuya continued their fight with Madara. Bankotsu sensed InuYasha (and later Jin) were having a tough battle with Tobi.

## Fifth Warriors War

### Madara's continuation

After learning Tobi was unmasked, Bankotsu demanded Madara, regarding Byakuya and Kenpachi who were both defeated by him. Team Bankotsu (especially Kenpachi) was saddened by InuYasha who was shaken by his allies' deaths and was helped back on his feet by Hinata.

While Tobi became a pseudo-Jinchūriki, Kenpachi still believed that as long Madara remained undead the fight would last longer. After Madara was revived, Kenpachi was utterly sad, believing him as a living being would "end the fun" and left InuYasha and Byakuya to fight the elder Uchiha warrior. After Madara became a pseudo-Jinchūriki, Kenpachi returned to have fun with him one last time.

After Madara successfully unleashed a large scale genjutsu over Earth, like the warriors and others, Team Bankotsu (except Kenpachi and Dark San) became susceptible to the effects. Kenpachi was exhausted from all his battle.

With Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and Zetsu defeated by Kakeru Satsuki & company, Suigintou's Alice Form, Yuè and the members of Gotei 13 and Madara dead, Usagi Tsukino, Sakura Kinomoto, Ichigo Momomiya, Minto Aizawa and the New Senshi helped released the victims of the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

### Planet Elicoor II under attack

After Sasuke was revived by Hades, ruler of the Underworld, he was still driven by the same mad desire for Sesshōmaru's powers. After the fated battle between Sasuke and Sesshōmaru and the Battle of Planet Elicoor II ended, Team Bankotsu also attended a play where Sakura Kinomoto, Lǐ Xiǎoláng and other dancers joined in. Saya's younger sister, Dīva, hosted the play and did the opera song.

### The accusation and defamation

Sometime later after Hinata sacrificed her self to bring back Vishnu and thus saving the afterlife called Tenkūkai, Team Bankotsu sensed the death of Hinata was a huge blow to Team InuYasha. Later Team Bankotsu saw the fight between a possessed Chūn Lì and a red-haired girl named Morgiana. Bankotsu and Kenpachi recognised the potential of her brutal nature and enlisted the descendant of the hunting tribe 'Fanalis' into the team. She gladly accepted due to her enhanced strength. At the same time, they saw a man named Saitama and enlisted him into Team Bankotsu due to his overwhelming strength.

That night in Konohagakure, a mysterious man offered Tenten a map to "ensure peace between Amegakure and Konohagakure". However it was a setup, the guards of Konoha called for her arrest and threw her in prison. Some time after Tenten was branded a fugitive and a traitor to Konoha, Sesshōmaru confronted demons and Asuras and sensed they weren't of Naraku.
