Ichigo's encounter with Ishida, in Bleach, Vol. 4 revealed that Soul Reapers were not the only ones who were out there hunting Hollows. Quincies, enemies of the Soul Reapers, also seek to fight Hollows, but unlike Soul Reapers, who hope to release the tortured soul for a peaceful eternity, Quincies aim to destroy those souls as corrupted and irrecuperable, and they don't care what the collateral damage is.
Ishida challenges Ichigo to a contest. He summons a horde of Hollows by spreading bait all over the city, and the one who defeats the most wins the contest. Ichigo finds he has no choice but to participate in this madness, since his friends and family are now likely to become victims of these Hollows.
Meanwhile, both Orihime and Chad have their own experiences with Hollows. Orihime can see them and tries to protect her friends. Chad cannot see them, but he develops a massive weapon on his right arm, which he puts to effective use with guidance from Ichigo's little sister against a Hollow determined to kill her friends....
The story continues in Bleach, Vol 6.
