 "Respira" is double-edged, but Baraggan is usually unaffected as his exterior is covered with something that helps protect his body from his own attack's effect.After all of his "Fracciones" are killed, Baraggan engages Soi Fon and Omaeda personally, temporarily gaining the upperhand, until the intervention of the Visoreds.By creating multiple barriers of "kido", the Visored Hachigen is able to contain Baraggan's aging abilities to the point that Soifon is able to wound the Espada with her "bankai".
