The synopsis for the episode teases everything that goes down in the fight as Kurotsuchi and Kenpachi are facing off against their Sternritter opponent, Pernida, as they broke off from the rest of the Soul Reaper pack in the newest episode. The synopsis for the episode breaks everything down and teases the coming episode as such:

“Zaraki Kenpachi and Kurotsuchi Mayuri were heading from the Fourth Branch Street to the True World Castle. Blocking their path was Pernida Parunkajas. Kenpachi tried to overpower Pernida, who had a mysterious and unknown fighting power, by using a straightforward approach, but even when Kenpachi slammed his blade into Pernida, it was not a decisive blow and he was hit head-on by Pernida’s power. While calmly analyzing the battle, Mayuri felt ‘joy’ in the face of a series of unexpected events.”
