Bleach Swordsman of Kusajishi

Yamamoto Genryūsai narrowed his eyes and looked at Kimura Muyang. His eyes were as calm as a lake that Kimura Muyang didn’t know what he was thinking right now.

Kimura Muyang and Yamamoto Genryūsai still sat across each other on their chair, but the table in front of them was already blown to smithereens because of Kimura Muyang’s Reiatsu. Chōjirō Sasakibe’s were looking back and forth between Yamamoto Genryūsai and Kimura Muyang. Those two got along so well until a minute ago, so why did…

“If I did, then what would you do?”

Yamamoto Genryūsai’s tone was as calm as usual.

Hearing Yamamoto Genryūsai’s response, Kimura Muyang surprisingly didn’t burst into rage. Instead, he closed his eyes slightly, and he seemed to regain his composure. However, it wasn’t his usual calm demeanor and more like he was calm because he figured out something.

Chōjirō Sasakibe seemed to be thinking about something when he saw the look on Kimura Muyang’s face as a trace of a sorrowful look was reflected in his eyes, but only for a brief moment as it was immediately replaced by a firm expression.

Yamamoto Genryūsai’s expression remained unchanged, but there was a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

Kimura Muyang slowly opened his eyes, but his gaze was calm yet menacing at the same time. It was the kind of gaze that has seen through everything yet showed no sign of fear, which would make anyone’s heart skip a beat.

Kimura Muyang slowly stood up and put his hand on the Zanpakuto’s hilt as he laid his eyes at Yamamoto Genryūsai.

The moment Chōjirō Sasakibe saw Kimura Muyang stood up, he was even more cautious and ready to protect Yamamoto Genryūsai at any moment.

“It’d be truly a shame if you really did it.” Kimura Muyang said as he slowly drew his Zanpakuto, but his tone was completely dull, which made it even more terrifying.

“Old man Yama, no… Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni.”

Yamamoto Genryūsai was still unfazed as he watched Kimura Muyang drew his Zanpakuto.

“Even if you are Gotei 13 Captain-Commander, even if you have looked after me for quite a while, even if I have always respected you from my heart, if you really killed Kimura Kazuya, I’ll kill you right here, no matter who and how strong you are! Because he is my only loved one in this world!”

Kimura Muyang pointed his Zanpakuto at Yamamoto Genryūsai.

“I’m going to kill you, Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni!”

On one of the streets in Seireitei

Kyōraku Shunsui was carrying 2 jugs of sake in his hand while humming as he headed towards the 13th Division.

He then suddenly stopped and gazed at the crescent moon in the sky, tilting down his bamboo hat, and mumbled to himself: “Good grief, what’s with this tense atmosphere? Even the moon is shrouded by dark clouds.”

As the dark clouds drifted across the sky and covered the moonlight, Kyōraku Shunsui’s shadow was swallowed in the darkness. However, once the sky cleared up again, Kyōraku Shunsui already used Shunpo, and his silhouette disappeared.

13th Division Headquarter.

Ukitake Jūshirō was sitting by the river, enjoying the view. But judging from the look on his face, it seemed something was bothering him.

“Yo, you seem in good shape today, Ukitake.”

Kyōraku Shunsui was already right behind Ukitake Jūshirō while he was enjoying the view.

“Kyōraku,” Ukitake Jūshirō turned around, but he wasn’t startled at all by Kyōraku Shunsui’s sudden arrival. “So you feel it too.”

The was a vague worry in Ukitake Jūshirō’s tone.

“It’d be odd if I don’t feel it. Not with a Reiatsu this strong.” Kyōraku Shunsui was no different, “What does he plan to do to Old Yamamoto?”

“Genryūsai-sensei…”

Ukitake Jūshirō’s mind wandered somewhere else.

“Come on, Ukitake. It’s not so often that you’re this fit. Have a drink with me. I brought a sake for you.”

Kyōraku Shunsui sounded back to his usual self as he walked toward Ukitake Jūshirō.

“Kyōraku!”

Ukitake Jūshirō sighed helplessly. He was at a loss for words since Kyōraku Shunsui casually invited him for a drink even at a time like this.

“I told you not to worry too much. Otherwise, Old Yamamoto will end up worrying about your health again.”

“Relax, Old man Yama will take care of everything.” Kyōraku Shunsui lightly patted Ukitake Jūshirō’s shoulder and tilted his bamboo hat up, revealing a smile below the straw hat, “Old man Yama has never lost to his mischievous students!”

Ukitake Jūshirō was a little bit surprised when he saw his best friend smiled, but then he also smiled: “Yes, Genryūsai-sensei has never lost to his mischievous students. .”

Ukitake Jūshirō excitedly said as he took one of the jugs full of sake from Kyōraku Shunsui’s hand: “Let’s wait and see how Old man Yama handled our little brother.”

Kyōraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jūshirō sat side by side as they gazed at the crescent moon that shone brightly once again after the clouds drifted away. They laughed and drank while recalling what has happened this past year.

12th Division

“Captain, what’s wrong.”

Hikifune Kirio, who was in the middle of a chat with Hiyori, suddenly went silent and immediately turned her focus at the 1st Division.

“What’s wrong, Captain?”

Hikifune Kirio came back to her senses and immediately wore a smile as she looked towards Hiyori, “It’s nothing, but I just remembered something important. It’s getting late anyway, so why don’t you go ahead and rest, Li’l Hiyori? I still have some things to take care of.”

“Hm?” Hiyori glanced at Hikifune Kirio doubtfully. She was wondering what else her Captain was planning on doing now. Nevertheless, she nodded obediently, “If Captain says s…, but be sure not to stay up too late, Captain.”

“Yep.”

Hikifune Kirio gently smiled and nodded, “Li’l Hiyori is so thoughtful. I’m really touched.”

“Wh… What are you saying, Captain!” Hiyori blushed and shouted to hide her embarrassment.

“Ha ha ha ha ~”

Seeing Hiyori tried so hard to hide her embarrassment, Hikifune Kirio did her best to refrain herself from laughing, but since it happened so rarely, she couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Alright, alright, you should go back and have a rest.”

Seeing Hiyori left her room, the smile on Hikifune Kirio’s face gradually disappeared. She walked to the window and gazed at the crescent moon in the sky, but she couldn’t contain the anxiety deep down in her heart.

Even though the Reiatsu that she sensed just now seemed like it was concealed by something, but at Hikifune Kirio’s level, she could detect it. The Reiatsu that rivaled her own came from the 1st Division, and from the vibe it gave, she was sure that it belonged to Kimura Muyang, although it was a little bit different from her first impression of his Reiatsu.

The most important thing was that Reiatsu was not only powerful but killing intent was also mixed in it. What the hell are you planning to do, Li’l Yangyang!

Hiyori left the Captain’s office with a bright red face. He sighed in relief that Kimura Muyang wasn’t there to see her embarrassing moment. If he were there, he’d definitely laugh. Not only that, he’d definitely tell Shinji and the rest. Just imagining that sent shivers to Hiyori’s spine. But now that she thought about it, she began to wonder where Kimura Muyang wandered to because she hasn’t seen him at all today.
