The Unforgiven from Shinigami
West District One, Shiba Clan.
It's been a while since Kūkaku left, but they haven't changed much. The Shiba Clan no longer makes fireworks, and their house is still built in the desolate wilderness where no one lives.
There are no trees here, and the scorching sun beats down on everything, even the wild grass bows its head.
Gold and Silver stood at the doorway, weighing the stones in their hands, as they accompanied Ganju Shiba in practicing his Sekihō.
The boy weaves through the array of stone pillars.
The so-called Stone Stake Formation was specially developed by the Shiba Clan for training in the Sekihō Technique. It consists of thirty-six stone stakes, which are shaped like maces, thin at the bottom and thick at the top, with smoothed spikes protruding on the surface.
Once activated, the stone pillar will spin at high speed; if you walk forward rashly, you will only be slammed away.
One must find a gap and pass through at high speed to avoid being knocked out of the stone pile formation. At the same time, those inside the formation need to accurately use the Sekihō Technique on the red dots on the stone piles.
Ganju Shiba felt that it was already difficult enough to dodge the spinning stone pillars, but it was even more difficult to aim at the red dot on the pillars.
Outside, gold and silver weapons could attack at any moment, making the difficulty level absolutely Hell.
But in order to shoulder the burden of the Shiba Clan, he, who was usually lazy, had to force himself to persevere.
" Sekihō, Sekihō, Sekihō."
He seized the opportunity and slapped at the red dot; he hit one out of three, but missed two.
Chirp.
A pebble was thrown from outside.
Ganju Shiba waved, " Sekihō."
The pebbles turned into sand and slipped from my palm, only to be swept to one side by the wind whipped up by the rotating stone pillar.
Bang.
"Ah." Ganju Shiba didn't dodge the stone stake in time. The strong push made him move forward, and he was hit head-on by the stone stake.
Dizziness and lightheadedness.
After walking around the stone pile array, others emerged staggering and seeing stars.
" Ganju!" The two, Jin and Yin, rushed over to help him up.
Ganju Shiba stubbornly insisted, "No, it's nothing."
"I can continue."
As he spoke, he tried to steady himself, and a familiar figure came into view, with bold clothes and black hair casually falling over his shoulders.
Ah, am I hallucinating from being beaten?
He rubbed his eyes.
"What a sorry sight, Ganju."
Kūkaku Shiba spoke sarcastically, but her eyes were full of heartache.
" Kūkaku!"x2
"Big sister!"
The three of them looked on incredulously.
Seeing this, Kūkaku Shiba's eyes welled up with tears. She thought to herself that she should apologize to Shiraishi and ask him to forgive her crime, as he had really helped her a lot.
"Don't cry, or I'll beat you up."
She raised her Riot Games in a threatening gesture.
Tears welled up in the eyes of all three, but they didn't fall, because they believed that Kūkaku really would beat them up.
"This time, I was spared punishment entirely thanks to Shiraishi's efforts."
Kūkaku Shiba introduces the meritorious person next to him.
The three then noticed that there was another person standing there, dressed in white on the outside and black on the inside; he was undoubtedly Captain Shinigami.
"Lord Shiraishi, you are actually willing to risk your life for the Seireitei Kūkaku's name! I, Koganehiko, am so moved!"
Koganehiko sniffed.
The slight hostility on the faces of the other two disappeared.
Instead, he was filled with emotion.
Shiraishi was a little embarrassed. He had never imagined that being the acting captain could help Kūkaku escape punishment. He waved his hand and said, "We're all family, no need to be so polite."
Family?
Ganju Shiba thought for a moment, then exclaimed in shock, "Big sister, you got married?! Why didn't you tell your younger brother at all?!"
Shiroganehiko shouted, "Red bean rice! We must eat red bean rice today!"
Kūkaku Shiba blushed, her temper flaring instantly. "Shut up! I'm not married to this guy!"
Bang bang bang bang.
One punch from each man resulted in bumps on their heads, and they fell to the ground.
Kūkaku Shiba walked into the house, her face flushed red. It was more a mixture of anger and shame than anger.
She fled as if she were escaping.
With tears streaming down his face, Koganehiko said, "Lord Shiraishi, I entrust Lord Kūkaku to your care from now on."
Shiroganehiko was still concerned about today's lunch, "Lord Shiraishi, would you like your red bean rice sweeter or blander?"
Ganju Shiba also shed tears, "Brother-in-law, you'll have a tough time from now on."
Each person said something, making it difficult for Shiraishi to respond. So they simply answered together, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Shiraishi. Make the red Kūkaku rice a little bland; I don't like it too sweet."
Brother-in-law, you're still too young.
Ganju Shiba stopped crying and asked in confusion, "Why do you say that?"
"Your sister's charm." Before Shiraishi could finish speaking, a murderous aura emanated from the shadows behind the door. Kūkaku Shiba gripped the door frame, secretly peeking out his left eye.
His eyes conveyed a message: If you dare to continue talking nonsense, I'll kill you!
The crimson Reiatsu was like mist.
"Gulp, "Shiraishi swallowed hard, and said, "Brother-in-law, you'll understand when you grow up."
"I'm not young anymore."
Ganju Shiba got up, put his hands on his hips, and said, "With my older sister's personality, how could she possibly attract men if it weren't for her face and breasts? I've read a lot of picture books, and I still understand that big breasts are better than small breasts."
"Hey, hey... Big sister."
His smug expression froze, and he began to stutter.
The eldest sister, who should have entered the house, was standing behind us at some point, radiating a blood-red Reiatsu, as if foreshadowing something.
" Ganju."
Kūkaku Shiba spoke softly, and just that one word was enough to make the boy break out in a cold sweat from the oppressive force emanating from his bloodline.
He glanced at his brother-in-law, seeking help.
Shiraishi tilted to the side and immediately lay down on the ground, pretending to be dead.
He looked at Jin and Yin again, and the two of them stopped crying. They both turned their heads like Shiraishi and pretended to faint.
You guys are so disloyal!
Ganju Shiba roared inwardly, his voice trembling as he said, "Big sister, it's not like that, let me explain."
"There's no good explanation. My adorable little brother is interested in drawing, and as his older sister, how could I bear to stifle his talent?"
Let me see what kind of picture books attract you, uureading.
Kūkaku Shiba grabbed Ganju Shiba's shoulder with her right hand, turned around, and pulled him inside, seemingly intending to catch him red-handed before giving him a physical lesson.
As she reached the doorway, she suddenly remembered something and turned back, saying, " Koganehiko, Shiroganehiko, you two weren't involved in this, were you?"
"Absolutely not!" " Kūkaku, how could we possibly teach Ganju such a thing?"
"Burn it."
Kūkaku Shiba interrupted their argument with a single sentence.
They cried again, "Hey."
Kūkaku Shiba continues.
Shiraishi stood up and patted them on the shoulder, "You guys have it tough too."
Koganehiko sighed, "We underestimated Ganju's curiosity. Anyway, let's not talk about that. Lord Shiraishi, it's so hot outside, would you like some chilled wine to cool off?"
"I've decided to quit drinking. Do you have any chilled watermelon?"
Shiraishi is a man of strong will; once he decides to quit drinking, he does so without the slightest hesitation.
Of course.
Koganehiko led the way, and as they continued down the stairs, the howling of the Ganju echoed through the air.
