While Tōba is in his gambling house, a man named Jin Kariya enters. After Kariya causes some trouble he walks up to Tōba and asks for his help in destroying Seireitei. Tōba agrees to it. After giving Kariya a room to stay in, he tells him that he'll gather some people for him. After gathering up a bunch of people, Tōba watches as Gō Koga and Maki Ichinose convince them to join their cause. Afterwards, Tōba confronts Ichinose and remarks about the large number of people they are rallying. Tōba later appears in front of one of the gates that lead to Seireitei while his subordinates break through. The gate is then opened up, but soon afterwards Kariya betrays them and kills Tōba and the people of Kusajishi.
