He attempted to stop the rampaging Ichigo but his friend in his powerful Hollow state instead attacked Uryū and injured him. This saw Orihime rushing to his side to heal his injuries whilst an attack from Ulquiorra Cifer damaged Ichigo's Hollow mask. He then fought back control of his own body where he came to apologise to his friends for what he did in that state as he prepared to battle Ulquiorra. However, the injuries sustained by Cifer were fatal and he perished from his injuries as a result. Uryū then urged Ichigo to go and help their friends whilst he assured him that under Orihime's care that he would make a full recovery.

Powers and abilities
Uryū was a member of the Quincy that were a special tribe of humans who could harness and utilise spiritual energy. Primarily, this involved absorbing Reishi from the atmosphere that was then combined with his own spiritual energy to form weapons. In spiritual realms, he was shown to easily gather this energy to power himself with this being shown when he was in the Soul Society and in Hueco Mundo. He was adept as sensing Hollows over a significant distance and even determine their direction.
He was armed with the traditional weapon of his people which was the Quincy Cross (滅却十字 (クインシー・クロス), Kuinshī Kurosu; Japanese for "Destruction Cross") that served as the source of his power. Its power was noted to grow as Uryū grew stronger making its abilities even more powerful.
He came to learn the Hirenkyaku (飛廉脚, Pure Flying Step; Viz "Flying Bamboo-Blind Slide") that was an advanced speed technique that was the Quincy equivalent of a shinigami flash step or an Arrancar's Sonído.
Among the equipment he had available to him included:
- Hollow Bait (対虚(ホロウ)用の撒き餌, Tai-Horōyou no Makie; lit. "Scatter-Bait for use against Hollows") : a flat round tablet tat was crushed and scattered where it could summon Hollows to the scene. They were noted for being a valuable tool in helping a Quincy exterminate low-level Hollows.
- Sanrei Glove (散霊手套, Sanrei Shutō; lit. "Spirit-Scattering Hand Envelope"; Viz "Scattered Spirits Glove") :
- Quincy Bangle (装身具, Sōshingu; lit. "Battle Accessory") :
Hollows were noted for being poisonous to Quincy.
