In the 11th Division, Having Fun Is What Matters Most / The Grilled Meat Is Gone, and So Is the Watermelon ...

Then, Hane Hane Chiyo was thrown out by Yamabuki Chidori.

Chapter 217: In the 11th Division, Playing is the Most Important Thing

As she walked from her home to the 11th Division, Yamabuki Chidori felt like her body was about to melt from the heat. When she opened the door, she found that it wasn't just her; everyone was complaining about the awful weather.

The 11th Division's Shinigami Uniform, lacking short sleeves and being black and absorbing heat, Barracks like giant steam ovens, especially with no breeze outside. The members' foreheads were covered in sweat, and most of the male members rolled up their sleeves and opened their shirts to cool down a little!

The girls, however, had no choice but to endure the heat!

There were also quite a few male team members trying to seduce these girls.

"Actually, you can just pretend we men don't exist. Take off your clothes if you want; we won't laugh at you in this heat! If it's really too hot, just pull your shirt open a little or roll your pants up to your thighs; that will make you feel cooler. What if you get heatstroke in this weather?" one of the male team members said.

Then all the men in the Barracks nodded in agreement.

Are you concerned about the girl's health?

I'm too embarrassed to call you out on it! You're just lusting after her!

"Captain, Lieutenant, you're here? What's the mission today?"

When they saw Unohana and Yamabuki Chidori arrive, everyone crowded around to ask them what was going on. The weather was already hot, but with so many people around, it got even hotter. Yamabuki Chidori wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"Why go to work in this awful weather? There's a little river outside Seireitei, how about we go play in the water together today?" Yamabuki Chidori asked.

The team members unanimously approved the decision, and Unohana was very happy.

"Just going to play in the water won't do. Let's bring some wine and meat, and have a barbecue together." Yamabuki Chidori openly took the lead in skipping work, Unohana looked at this big boy and smiled.

If we consider age, the Yamabuki Chidori is almost two hundred years younger than the Unohana.

And so, while the other teams were still working hard, Yamabuki Chidori and Unohana led their team members directly to the small river outside and had a great time!

No matter what time it is, having fun is the most important thing.

The men took off their clothes and jumped into the river like dumplings being dropped into boiling water. The coolness instantly spread throughout their bodies, and it felt incredibly refreshing!

In contrast to these carefree men, the girls were more reserved, only wetting their hair and arms with the cool river water before immersing their feet in it to enjoy the refreshing coolness.

"Girls over there, don't worry about us. You can pretend we don't exist. You can strip naked and have fun inside!" The male team members whistled excitedly.

It's important to understand that this was a relatively conservative era.

There aren't many souls born directly in Soul Society; most souls come from the Human World. In this era, women have virtually no rights and are even treated as appendages.

Therefore, the girls tend to be more conservative in their thinking.

Their faces turned red from the comments made by these shameless men, and even though they were also hot, they didn't dare to go into the water.

"Never mind them, let's go upstream." Unohana led the girls upstream, then turned to Yamabuki Chidori with a smile and said, "As for the boys, please keep an eye on them, Lieutenant. If I find anyone peeking..."

That damn oppressive feeling!

The girls all followed Unohana, leaving a bunch of grown men behind. But when men are having fun, they don't need women at all.

They had a water fight, a barbecue, and drank alcohol—they were having a blast!

Yamabuki Chidori suddenly realized that there were no swimsuits in this era, making it very inconvenient for girls to play in the water.

Forget swimsuits, Japan at that time didn't even have underwear. Otherwise, why do you think Kimono commando under their kimonos?

Could I use my ingenuity in this area to make another fortune?

By the way, Shūtara Senjumaru should be nearby too; I can go and chat with her.

Just then, a group of boys gathered around and said mysteriously, "Lieutenant, are you really willing to accept this? So many cute girls are playing in the water upstream, and we can't even catch a glimpse of them... Just give the order, and we brothers will go through fire and water for you!"

Yamabuki Chidori knew perfectly well what these men were thinking. They were all men!

"I neither support nor oppose this matter. If something happens, it has nothing to do with me. But the Captain is over there. Do you think he'll be hacked to death if Captain finds out?" Yamabuki Chidori sneered.

Everyone deflated when they thought about how terrifying their Captain was.

"You guys aren't happy about me taking you out to play during work hours! If I cause any trouble, you're all going back to work overtime. I have to leave for a bit, call me when the meat is done grilling," said Yamabuki Chidori.

The boys thought about it... and it seemed to make sense! So they decided to have a blast!

I wonder if I'll run into Shutara Yamabuki Chidori if I continue downstream with the Shūtara Senjumaru.

He followed the current downstream for more than two miles and came to a relatively remote place. There were no villages or people around. Then he saw... not far away in the river, there was a girl who was not wearing any clothes and was gently combing her hair with a comb. It was Shūtara Senjumaru.

"Hmm... she's quite pretty, and her legs are long, but she's too thin. Her breasts are a bit small..."

Shūtara Senjumaru felt a burning gaze fixed on him. Looking up, he saw Yamabuki Chidori smiling at him.

"..."

Shūtara Senjumaru waved his hand, and two Steel Needle shot towards Yamabuki Chidori's eyes. Yamabuki Chidori hurriedly threw himself into the water, and then a pair of hands grabbed his eyes from behind.

"If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll gouge your eyes out and feed them to the dogs!" Shūtara Senjumaru's voice was as cold as ice; no one would be in a good mood if they were spied on while taking a bath.

"I brought the 11th Division out for a picnic. The girls all went upstream, and I was worried that some perverts might be spying on them, so I came to patrol. I didn't expect to run into you! Isn't that a coincidence?" Yamabuki Chidori was spouting nonsense.

Shūtara Senjumaru, his face cold and menacing, said, "If you dare open your eyes right now, I'll kill you! Understand?"

"Okay, okay, I won't open my eyes, I won't open my eyes!" Yamabuki Chidori said helplessly.

Shūtara Senjumaru swam to the other side of the river, put on his clothes, and only then did Yamabuki Chidori open her eyes.

My clothes were put on in a hurry and were completely soaked.

However... Shūtara Senjumaru's figure is almost too slender; even when soaked, you can't see anything at all.

"I have a feeling you don't want your eyes anymore!" Shūtara Senjumaru said coldly.

"Calm down, calm down. Actually, I had something I wanted to ask you. Could you make a waterproof bra specifically for girls to wear while playing in the water in the summer? Look how embarrassing this is!" Yamabuki Chidori said.

Chapter 218: The barbecue is gone, and so is the watermelon.

"Make a set of clothes for girls to wear while swimming? Yes! How come I didn't think of that? But the material should be waterproof! It's a good idea." Shūtara Senjumaru nodded, stroking his chin.

When it comes to her area of expertise, Shūtara Senjumaru becomes an extremely focused person.

"Wait, didn't you just say you were going on a trip with the 11th Division members? How come you came looking for me specifically? You were lying all along!" Shūtara Senjumaru finally realized that he seemed to have been tricked.

Yamabuki Chidori hurriedly explained, "Actually, I came to you not only to talk about the swimsuit, but also to discuss how to improve the Shinigami Uniform."

Shūtara Senjumaru looked at Yamabuki Chidori with curiosity. "Isn't Shinigami Uniform just an ordinary uniform? What's there to improve?"

Yamabuki Chidori successfully piqued Shūtara Senjumaru's curiosity, and he seemed less concerned about what had just happened, smiling as he said, "I've been fighting Quincy a lot lately and discovered they have a very strange ability called Blut. There are two types of Blut: Blut Vene, which greatly enhances defense, and Blut Arterie, which greatly enhances attack power. Both abilities work by injecting one's spiritual energy into the blood vessels, producing different effects. I have an idea—could this ability be transferred to Shinigami Uniform?"

Shūtara Senjumaru said with a helpless expression, "Are you kidding me? How could I possibly sew a needle and thread into a person's body? Even if I succeeded, the person would definitely die!"

"You didn't understand what I meant. What I meant was, could you use needle and thread to simulate blood vessels, and then sew this tissue onto the Shinigami Uniform? After the Shinigami puts on the Shinigami Uniform, the Shinigami Uniform can connect with their Reiatsu to create a protective barrier. Although the barrier's defensive power is proportional to their Reiatsu, it's still better than having no armor at all," Yamabuki Chidori said.

Although he wasn't a military genius, he knew how big the difference was between a fully armored army and an unarmored army.

A soldier fully armored fighting an unarmored soldier is an absolute annihilation.

However, creating this kind of Shinigami Uniform is indeed technically challenging!

Shūtara Senjumaru stroked her chin, lost in thought; judging from her thoughtful expression, this was not impossible.

Of course, this kind of armor also has certain drawbacks, namely, it consumes the wearer's Reiatsu. If one gets caught up in a long and arduous battle, it may shorten the wearer's stamina.

But Yamabuki Chidori recalled that Blood War a thousand years later!

Ordinary Shinigami didn't even have a chance to fight to the end. Many were killed the moment they saw the enemy. In less than an hour of fighting, thousands were killed or wounded, causing the Gotei 13 to collapse!

Now that I have an extra layer of armor, I can't say I'll be completely unharmed on the battlefield, but even if I'm seriously injured, Seireitei's current medical technology can completely heal me.

"Theoretically, it should be feasible, but in practice, it's definitely not that simple. I'll go back and study it first! If you have any more ideas, just come find me," said Shūtara Senjumaru. Then she entered her own world of ideas, not even noticing the big tree in front of her, and headbutted it straight in!

"Thump!"

The impact was quite loud, but it didn't wake her up. She turned a corner and continued walking back, thinking as she went.

Yamabuki Chidori knew that if her idea succeeded, the casualty rate on the battlefield would be greatly reduced in the future.

He built up the Gotei 13 from scratch; how could he have no feelings for them? He also hoped for long-term peace and stability in Seireitei. Who wants to live a life of constant danger?

By the way, is the meat for those kids cooked?

I should go back and eat some meat!

He was having a wonderful time as the Lieutenant, letting his subordinates do all the work while he ate all the meat.

However, when Yamabuki Chidori arrived upstream, she found that something was wrong. Her team members were lying on the ground in disarray, all of them bruised and battered.

"Lieutenant... you're finally back! We missed you so much!" one of the team members cried and hugged Yamabuki Chidori's leg.

"What happened to you guys? Did you go upstream to peep at the girls bathing? Is that why you got beaten up like this?" Yamabuki Chidori looked at her bruised and battered teammates with a mix of amusement and exasperation. "Anyone injured? Come here, I'll treat your wounds."

The team members, filled with righteous indignation, exclaimed, "Lieutenant, we didn't get beaten up like this because we were peeping at the girls showering! We were robbed!"

Um????

The expression on Yamabuki Chidori's face was priceless. A robber dared to Gotei 13? Or even the 11th Division?

What's this called? It's called an old man eating poison because he thinks he's lived too long!

This is like two highway robbers trying to rob an entire Navy SEAL team.

But the most outrageous thing was that these Navy SEALs were pinned to the ground and brutally beaten!

"Outrageous! In broad daylight, under the clear sky, how dare they rob me right under my nose? And they even robbed my people? You bastards... how many of them are there?" Yamabuki Chidori asked.

Calm down, calm down, don't get angry. What if they're a large group of bandits? It's understandable that our men are outnumbered!

I'll punish you when we get back!

One of the team members said hesitantly, "Only one person came."

"Just... just one person? What did he steal?"

"He stole all the meat we had grilled! He also took the watermelon that was soaking in the river, and oh yeah, he took all the sake too! As for the money on us and our most valuable Zanpakuto... he didn't even look at them!"

Yamabuki Chidori's brow twitched. "Have you run into a weasel? And so many of you couldn't even take down one person? How embarrassing!" I boasted to the Captain Commander that I would definitely train the 11th Division into the strongest fighting force.

And you proved me wrong with your actions!

You guys are awesome!

"Alright, now form up. Everyone, return to the 11th Division Barracks. Double the training!" Yamabuki Chidori's face was as dark as a storm cloud.

The team members trembled with fear, none of them daring to object, and obediently dragged their bruised and swollen bodies back.

After all the team members left, Yamabuki Chidori's face instantly turned cold. "How dare they mess with me? If I don't get my revenge, how can I remain the Lieutenant?"

Yamabuki Chidori closed her eyes and entered a Hollowfication state.

Hollow's perception of spiritual energy was higher than that of the Shinigami. In an instant, he sensed a powerful Reiatsu several kilometers away, which was constantly moving away.

A hint of seriousness flashed in Yamabuki Chidori's eyes. "Damn, this Reiatsu is not weak! No wonder these kids can't beat him!"

Go check it out!

Chapter 219: Awaken, Adamantine Shatter!

Yamabuki Chidori took out a black Hell Butterfly and notified Unohana, who was still upstream.

"Unohana, I've run into a little trouble here. My team members were robbed and got a good beating! I'm going to check on them now. You be careful on your end," Yamabuki Chidori said.

Unohana raised an eyebrow slightly. Her teammate had been robbed? Who had the audacity to do that?

"Okay, be careful," Unohana.

Yamabuki Chidori activated Flash Step and quickly ran towards the direction of that Reiatsu. A minute or two later, he had already arrived at that location.

This was a very dense grove of trees. Yamabuki Chidori stood on a treetop and looked down at a big bald man. He was eating and drinking with a piece of roasted meat in his left hand and a bottle of fine wine in his right, and he was carrying a big watermelon on his back!

You have quite the appetite! The meat and wine aren't expensive, but this watermelon is ridiculously pricey! And you only pick the valuable stuff!

I'll beat you until your face is covered in peach blossoms!

From its high vantage point, the Yamabuki Chidori swooped down, its hand reaching for the back of the bald man, its target the watermelon!

The bald man felt a chill run down his spine and quickly Flash Step. Yamabuki Chidori's five fingers pierced directly into a large tree in front of him, and with a gentle tear, she cut the tree in half!

The bald man stuffed all the meat into his mouth, swallowed it whole, and stared at the boy in front of him, asking, "Where did this brat come from? Don't bother me while I'm eating!"

Yamabuki Chidori sneered, "You seem to be enjoying your meal, but I'm not happy at all. The food you're eating is mine!"
