Fullmetal Alchemist – Brotherhood #12: All is One; One is All
Ed dreamt of his father and woke from his sleep on the train. He and Al had reached Dublithe. They went to Izumi’s shop and met her and her husband. Izumi confronted the Elric brothers and beat Ed for joining the military. She ranted at them for what they had done last time. Later, the brothers asked Izumi for Philosopher’s Stone and mentioned their father’s name. Ed still hated him for abandoning their mother even before her death. Since then, he was never seen. Back to present, Izumi told the brothers to eat with them. Al related how they had helped the delivery of a baby at the Rush Valley.
That night, Ed recalled their first time meeting Izumi and had pleaded her to teach them alchemy after they witnessed her excellent skill to stop a flood disaster. After knowing they had no parents, she finally agreed. The first test was to survive on an isolated island without alchemy. The brothers were aghast. That night, the brothers were hungry. Izumi told her husband that her past training was even tougher. On the island, the brothers had difficulty hunting for food. One day, Ed still pondering of living and with renewed confidence, he and Al made their own fire and hunted their own food. They pondered of Izumi’s words of ‘All is One; One is All’ and thought of food chain and derived that everyone was tiny like ants but when everyone gathered, it would be all of the world. On the final day, they managed to answer Izumi’s question. Delighted, she started training them. Al asked Izumi about her accomplishment of completing alchemy without the transmutation circle. Back to present, Ed knew Izumi had seen the ‘Truth’.
Next day, Ed sparred with Izumi who knew the brothers had seen the ‘Truth’. Ed knew he was right. Flashback, Izumi had lost some of her organs in her bid to revive her baby who was born dead due to her illness during her pregnancy period. The brothers acted optimistic and she hugged them, trying them not to force themselves. They begged her for her forgiveness. Flashback, Ed and Al had realised the concept of alchemy which was life itself when they were training on the island.
Bleach #225:
Hinamori and Matsumoto faced off three Arrancars who activated a monster with their power. Meanwhile, the little girl Arrancar and Stark faced off two Shinigami captains. The Shinigami Captain could repel the girl Arrancar’s Ceros easily and told her to go home. Nearby, the three Arrancars activated a monster – Allon with combined force. Matsumoto sensed uncontrollable fear. Meanwhile, Hitsugaya was also fighting. Same time, Allon attacked Matsumoto with lightning speed and ripped her stomach. Matsumoto fell before Hinamori’s eyes. Hinamori screamed. Hitsugaya was worried. Hinamori reached for Matsumoto Rangiku using her binding skill before she fell to the ground. Hinamori tried to heal her but Allon had attacked Hinamori, causing her bones to crack. The shocked Hinamori fell. Kira and Hisagi went to her aid and attacked Allon. The three Arrancars watched and commanded Allon to kill them all. Allon ignored them and they started quarrelling among themselves. Hisagi wanted to handle him alone while Kira was told to take care of Rangiku and Hinamori. Kira agreed. Kira took Rangiku and Hinamori away. The three Arrancars were not pleased. Kira used his binding skill – Crystal Mountain to shield Hinamori and Rangiku from attacks. He proceeded to heal Rangiku who was in worse shape first. Meanwhile, Hisagi used bound lightning to attack Allon, crushing him to the ground. But Allon was indifferent to his attack and was soon back to his feet. Allon grabbed and tried to crush Hisagi within his fist. Allon prepared to eat Hisagi but a Shinigami – Iba had approached Allon. Allon sent a powerful beam at Iba, blasting him away after detecting him with his third eye at his back. Allon continued crushing Hisagi who spilt blood. Allon tossed Hisagi away and confronted Kira, Rangiku and Hinamori. Kira panicked as he was still healing Matsumoto. The Shinigami Chief Commander was already there, shooting a hole in Allon’s chest before Allon could attack Kira and others.
