Bleach Swordsman of Kusajishi

Chapter 76: Two Years (2)

Youre finally here. Its so not like you to be late, Kimura. Kensei, who leaned on a wall, said to Muyang after seeing him coming. He then turned to Kyraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jshir, Captain Kyraku, Captain Ukitake.

Well, it seems that we are the last ones. Im so sorry. Kyraku Shunsui said, but he didnt seem sorry about it at all.

Kensei, are you by yourself? Wheres Mashiro? Muyang asked when he noticed that Mashiro, who always stuck closely with Kensei, was nowhere to be found.

I dont know where that idiot ran off, but I wish she wont come back. Its a lot quieter when she isnt around. Kensei said relievedly.

She may be out at Rukongai for a stroll. I happened to see her in the afternoon. Hiyori said with her hands behind her head.

Shes as childish as always. Muyang was at a loss for words and shook his head at Mashiros behavior. She didnt even show up at Roses celebration party.

Are you sure you didnt miss anyone, Kimura? Shinji said as he turned his head at Muyang.

Huh? Muyang glanced at Shinji and immediately tried to remember who was missing from the group, but after a moment, he gave up and asked: Who did I miss?

Its Aranmaru, Shinji face-palmed at the forgetful Muyang, in case you forget, Aranmaru is Roses teacher. How could you forget him?

Muyang was speechless when he realized that he completely forgot about Aranmaru, Thatsuhh

I knew youre such a hopeless guy, but to think that you forgot about me. I wouldve missed this part hadnt Rose went to the Academy to invite me. So, how do you plan to make this up to me? Aranmaru Shishins helpless voice came from behind Muyang.

Ah Muyang turned around, looking guilty. He admitted that it was the mistake on his part for forgetting Aranmaru, Thats

Forget it! I guess you cant even come up with anything decent to make this up. On that note, Ill just ask you to come to Shin Academy and give my students a few lessons and tips. Aranmaru Shishin went ahead and stated his own terms upon seeing Muyangs guilty look.

Alright then. Muyang was slightly relieved that Aranmaru Shishin was willing to let him off the hook in exchange for him teaching his student. This guy had changed more and more ever since he became Shin Academys vice headmaster more than a decade ago. He was always thinking of dragging his friends, this group in particular, to show the rope for his student in the Academy . However, he was the most mature among them at the same time. His life as a teacher for more than 100 years wasnt just for show.

Ah! Why are there so many Captains here? A person with sloppy hair and clothes and 2 dark circles below his eyes sounded surprised the moment he showed up and saw the crowds.

He is? Kyraku Shunsui looked at the coming person and asked.

This is the 2nd Divisions 3rd Seat-Urahara Kisuke. I heard from Yoruichi that youre supposed to be in the middle of your research right now, though.

Ah, Captain Kimura! My research happened to come to an end today, so I took a walk for a change of pace, but I certainly didnt expect to see so many Captains gathering here, aha~ aha~ Urahara Kisuke awkwardly laughed as he scratched his head.

Kisuke, since youre already here anyway, dress up! Are you fine looking like that in front of this many Captain?

Ahahaa~Yoruichi-san~ Urahara Kisuke embarrassedly scratched his head when he saw Yoruichi before saluting the Captains, Then I will take a brief leave, Captains.

That guy seems even more listless and looser than Shinji. Hiyori said with displeased look on her face.

Why are you lumping me with him, idiot!

What do you mean by idiot, you baldy! Besides, I didnt say anything wrong!

Okay, knock that off, you two! Besides, despite how he looked, Kisuke is reliable when the situation asks for it, and he is pretty strong, you know. Muyang immediately explained as he dragged Hiyori away because she was rolling up her sleeve, ready to pummel Shinji.

Pretty strong? That guy? Hiyori looked at Muyang in disbelief. Even if you say so, I just cant believe it when I see his eyes and face!

I mean, Shinji is pretty much like him. Muyang then patted Hiyoris head, Okay, lets begin Yoruichi! Everyone is here.

I told you not to lump me with him! Shinji tilted his head whispered.

Everyone knows how lax and carefree you can be. Rose said as he patted Shinjis shoulders and followed Yoruichi and the gang.

Yoruichi-sama, all Captains and Lieutenants, right this way.

The moment Yoruichi was about to go in, a petite black figure appeared and knelt on before her.

Yo, thanks for your hard work, Soifon. Yoruichi said as a response.

No, its my honor to serve Yoruichi-sama.

Haha, youre as formal as always, Soifon. Get up already and come with us!

No, this is your party, Yoruichi-sama! Ill just watch you from here.

Seeing the look on Soifons face, Yoruichi just sighed and went in. Knowing her personality, Yoruichi knew there was no point in convincing her

Well, If you say so. Before Yoruichi entered, she suddenly turned around and added: Ah, I almost forgot, Kisukell be coming, so let him in later.

Yoruichi-sama! Soifon looked at Yoruichi incredulously, You hold that man too highly, Yoruichi-sama! I dont think that man deserves to drink with you, Yoruichi-sama!

Just do what I said! Yoruichi said as she glanced at Soifon.

Understood! Even though Soifon still didnt like the fact that Urahara Kisuke would join her masters party, she had no choice but to do as Yoruichi told her when she saw her eyes.

What a cute little girl, Muyang said to Yoruichi with a smile after Soifon disappeared.

Dont tell me youre interested in Soifon, Kimura! Yoruichi glanced at Muyang jokingly said.

Theres no way! Muyang waved his hand. What I meant is she seems interested in Kisuke. Didnt you notice how she looked out for Kisuke? Dont you think so too, Kyraku?

Well, now that you mention it. Kyraku Shunsui echoed, But I cant say for sure just yet.

Oh? Soifon and Kisuke? Yoruichi immediately stopped, That sounds really interesting. Should I hook those two together?

Muyang almost couldnt contain his laughter when he imagined the scene where Yoruichi misunderstood and tried to hook Soifone and Kisuke together.

Okay, thank you for your hospitality today, Yoruichi. Im gonna head back now.

The guests left one after another after saying goodbye. Even though it was supposed to be the party to congratulate Rose, he wasnt the star of the party because it was held in the 2nd Division.

Captain, you seem to be worrying about something. Suzuki Kusu said after looking at Muyang on their way back.

Worrying? Muyang turned his head to look at Suzuki Kusu, what makes you think Im worried?

Suzuki Kusu just looked at Muyang meaningfully without replying.

You dont have to worry about anything, Muyang reached out and patted Suzuki Kusus head with a smile, Leave the worrying to me. Its my job as a Captain.

Suzuki Kusu didnt say a word. As a person who had spent 100 years with Muyang, she could easily feel the boredom in Muyangs heart. After Rose was offically appointed as a Captain today, Muyang seemed restless. Although he was chatting and laughing with everyone as usual, Suzuki Kusu could feel there was something in Muyangs heart, but it was unlike his usual emotions such as hesitation, restlessness, and confusion.

Suzuki Kusu finally let go of her Zanpakutos hilt after wondering what was on Muyangs mind. She just had to wait until Muyang wanted to tell her if he didnt want to tell her now. She was fine as long as she could stay by Muyangs side.
