The official website describes the story for the episode:
In order to save the Soul King, Ichigo pulls out the sword that had pierced him. However, as if guided by the Quincy blood flowing through his body, Ichigo ends up cutting down the Soul King with that very sword and the three worlds are now without the Soul King. Urahara Kisuke and the others realize the gravity of the situation, but they do not have an immediate solution. As strange things begin to happen, Jushiro Ukitake takes action, declaring that he will “become the Soul King’s replacement.” At the same time, Shunsui Kyoraku heads towards the underground Great Prison of the Shinigami Academy in an attempt to deal with the dire situation.
