"So it is... and so it is..."
"So Mr. Yoruichi is actually Sōgo Shihoin sister, and we just used that guy's older sister as a weapon and threw her at him. Now he's furious, and we're doomed..."
Uryū Ishida continued to recount to Ichigo Kurosaki what had happened during the time Ichigo Kurosaki was unconscious.
"I see, I think I understand now."
After listening to Uryū Ishida's words, Ichigo Kurosaki nodded slightly. Although he still didn't quite understand the specifics, and Uryū Ishida's words were too tedious and lacked focus, Ichigo Kurosaki only understood one thing.
Is Mr. Yoruichi a female cat?
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"That stern Mr. Yoruichi isn't a male cat... but a female cat? That's... unbelievable!!"
Ichigo Kurosaki, always a good kid who knows how to grasp the essentials, immediately understood the key point in Uryū Ishida's long, seemingly nonsensical speech!
Yes, after listening to Uryū Ishida's story, Ichigo Kurosaki only understood one thing: Yoruichi-san, with her hoarse, magnetic voice and who, despite being a cat, was like their Mr. Yoruichi, was not a male cat. He... it shouldn't be her, Mr. Yoruichi was actually a female cat!
How amazing is that?!
"I've said so much, I told you we're in deep trouble, and you're here agonizing over Mr. Yoruichi's gender?!"
Uryū Ishida felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger. He thought that if he told Ichigo Kurosaki about the current situation, Ichigo Kurosaki would surely have some brilliant insights. But instead, this idiot was getting hung up on some unimportant details, which was simply unbearable. He was almost fed up with this idiot Ichigo Kurosaki.
"No, actually, I'm more curious about the relationship between Mr. Yoruichi -Mr. Yoruichi and Sōgo -san's gender!"
The truly broad-minded and voluptuous Orihime Inoue was more curious about the relationship between Yoruichi and Sōgo Shihoin than Yoruichi's gender. She was very curious as to why Yoruichi, a cat, would be Sōgo Shihoin sister, who clearly appeared human... It was just too strange no matter how you looked at it! This wasn't just a question of gender; it was a question of crossing species boundaries!
So, did the person break the taboo and fall in love with the cat, or did the cat break the taboo...?
Orihime Inoue's face flushed a faint pink; she dared not imagine anything further.
Hehehe...
"Mr. Sōgo and Yoruichi... you two aren't siblings, are you?!"
Orihime Inoue smiled slightly awkwardly, as if talking to herself, or perhaps Sōgo Shihoin, who was being Sōgo Shihoin's head, her Yoruichi Shihōin slightly open, fast asleep.
They're siblings!
" Yoruichi siblings, born of the same parents!"
Sōgo Shihoin smiled slightly, answering Orihime Inoue's inner question.
"Haha, I knew it! I knew you and Mr. Yoruichi weren't siblings..."
Orihime Inoue smiled faintly, unwilling to admit the truth, she had already begun to hallucinate.
"I said, Yoruichi and I are genuine siblings, related by blood!"
Seeing Orihime Inoue's slightly disheveled appearance, Sōgo Shihoin smiled calmly and repeated what he had just said.
"Ah..."
After hearing what Orihime Inoue Sōgo Shihoin's mouth dropped open. She was now certain that she hadn't misheard; Sōgo Shihoin had admitted it—he had admitted his relationship with Mr. Yoruichi.
This is truly an incredible thing!
"So... therefore..."
"Is Mother Cat-chan or Father Cat-chan?!"
Orihime Inoue trembled uncontrollably, her gaze shifting back and forth between Sōgo and Yoruichi.
"Oh, I see~"
Seeing Orihime Inoue's flustered appearance, Sōgo instantly understood why she had panicked after learning about his relationship with Yoruichi Orihime Inoue.
Let me think about it...
"Oh right, I think my mother is a cat. She's a very beautiful White Cat, and her fur is as beautiful as my hair."
Sōgo touched his snow-white hair and spoke with a smile.
"Is... is that so?"
"So, Mother is a cat?!"
Orihime Inoue nodded stiffly. The thought of the kitten having to endure such undeserved suffering filled her with pain for Sōgo, Orihime Inoue, and the Yoruichi ' mother.
"No, no."
"I think I remembered it wrong."
"Actually... our father is a cat; he's a pure black cat."
"Those agile movements and perfect figure attracted all the magnetic gazes~"
"He's the epitome of perfection, the epitome of masculinity; simply put, he's the perfect male."
Sōgo Shihoin revealed a playful smile, tied Orihime Inoue to a stool, and then wantonly toyed with Orihime Inoue mind, giving him extraordinary pleasure.
Today was also a pleasant day for Sōgo Shihoin.
"The perfect male?!"
"But no matter how perfect it is, it can't change the fact that it's a cat, right?"
In other words...
Orihime Inoue blushed deeply; she couldn't continue imagining. The scene she was about to conjure was enough to warrant eight covers for the book.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
"Just kidding!"
Actually, both my mother and father are cats~
"Of course, it's not just my parents who are cats, my sister who is a cat, my younger siblings who are cats, and even I am a cat—our whole family are cats!"
Sōgo Shihoin smiled and continued rambling incoherently.
"Really?!"
"I see, that puts my mind at ease."
Then Orihime Inoue believed it. Not only did she believe it, but after hearing what Sōgo Shihoin, she even showed a relieved smile. If it was all the cat's words, then there was no problem.
While it's not possible between people,... if it's between cute little animals, then there's no problem at all, and there won't be any scenes that need to be banned or are unsuitable for children. Aren't those cute videos that are supposed to be AV but are actually written as animal videos very popular these days?!
Don't believe it!
"This guy is obviously making things up!"
Looking at Inoue Orihime, Orihime Inoue was completely convinced and wearing a sweet smile, Uryū Ishida broke out in a cold sweat. It was obvious that everything Orihime Inoue had just heard was nonsense from that man wearing the strange eye patch. However... Uryū Ishida couldn't find a point to refute it for a moment. Although Sōgo's words were absurd, they were also very reasonable, so absurd that even the brilliant Uryū Ishida couldn't find any fault with them.
" Yoruichi..."
"Could it be Yoruichi Shihōin?!"
Renji Abarai, who had been trapped in the chair in silence, trying to break free of his chains and escape on his own, gave up after dozens of unsuccessful attempts. He listened quietly to the group's idle chatter, and finally, his blind spot led him to discover Watson.
" Yoruichi Shihōin?!"
"By the way, Sōgo's real name is Sōgo Shihoin. In that case... Sōgo's older sister naturally also has the surname Shihoin."
Orihime Inoue was startled by Renji Abarai's sudden exclamation. After a moment, she came to her senses and breathed a sigh of relief.
No, that's not what I meant.
"I mean, is that Yoruichi the same Yoruichi from 110 years ago, the Second Division Captain who betrayed Soul Society, the former head of the Shihoin Family, one of the Yoruichi Shihōin Five Great Noble Clans?!"
Renji Abarai asked, somewhat excitedly.
"Oh?"
"I was thinking that since you're a new face, you probably don't know what happened back then, but I didn't expect you to know so much about it!"
Sōgo Shihoin looked at Renji Abarai and gave him a meaningful smile.
"No, this isn't exactly a secret. After all, it's recorded in the textbooks of the Shin'ō Academy Shin'ō Academy. It's a case study that all classes in the entire academy, whether they are elite classes, special talent classes, or commoner classes, must learn."
Renji Abarai revealed a surprising truth in front of Sōgo Shihoin.
"?"
"Ha?"
You mean my sister was included in the textbook?
After hearing Renji Abarai's words, Sougo Sōgo Shihoin froze on the spot. He had originally thought that Renji Abarai was a spy for some organization, but now it seemed that... that was not the case. After all, no one would use someone who looked so stupid as a spy.
However, the truth of this matter was indeed somewhat beyond Sōgo Shihoin's imagination.
To Sōgo Shihoin, his older sister was actually in the textbook, and it was even a required textbook! This was a truly glorious thing for the family!
He Sōgo he was inferior to his older sister in this respect, and in this respect alone, he was Sōgo to call his older sister the strongest!
Sōgo has been in the Soul Society for hundreds of years, yet he hasn't become a famous figure. In fact, he's regressed in status, and now many rookie Soul Reaper in the Gotei 13 don't even recognize him...
Only the older generation of Soul Reaper still remember him, Sōgo Shihoin, who once punched Kenpachi and trampled Vasto Lorde- level Menos Grande. Even Yamamoto Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai, the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13 and known as the strongest Soul Reaper in a thousand years, treated him with respect.
"Sister, sister."
"Are you awake? Did you hear that?!"
"You've been included in Soul Society's textbooks!"
"They've truly brought honor to our Shihoin Family!"
Sōgo Shihoin touched his little black head and said happily.
"Hahaha..."
"Of course!"
"Don't you even know who your sister is?"
Yoruichi, the black cat perched on Sōgo's head, had just woken up. After lazily stretching her body, she spoke smugly.
"Hahaha..."
"Hahaha..."
The next second, Yoruichi and Sōgo exchanged a smile.
"Speaking of which, sister, you have no idea. Back then, those brilliant minds from the Central 46 Chambers planned to get our Shihoin Family to cede some benefits, but they didn't dare to speak up directly. Those self-proclaimed righteous sages could only resort to underhanded methods and dirty tricks, inciting some impulsive young Soul Reaper to hate our Shihoin in order to make us give in. It was simply laughable."
Sōgo recalled the early days when Yoruichi Shihōin betrayed Soul Society. The Central 46 Chambers seemed to see a chance to seize power and, like clowns, made countless small moves in hopes of bringing down the Five Great Noble Clans. He still fondly remembered how much fun he had with the Central 46 Chambers back then.
"Hahaha... that's definitely their style. And what happened? Did you let them get their way?"
Yoruichi Shihōin burst into laughter after hearing this. She understood Sōgo's feelings very well because she had also gone through a similar period in her life.
How could that be?
"How could those 'big shots' possibly outsmart me?"
Sōgo Shihoin tall and proud, exuding an imposing aura.
"He truly is my brother."
Yoruichi Shihōin glanced at the imposing Sōgo Shihoin, a slight smile playing on her lips, revealing a human-like expression in a cat-like manner.
"By the way, those shrewd guys who sentenced you back then, they all died not long ago!"
"So that means... Soul Society who dared to mess with us... is dead!"
Sōgo Shihoin frowned slightly. To be honest, he wasn't feeling well. Throughout the entire Soul Society, no one who knew how powerful Sōgo Shihoin was dared to mess with him. Even Yamamoto Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai, the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13 and known as the greatest Soul Reaper in a thousand years, used a soft-touch approach to deal with Sōgo Shihoin, avoiding brute force whenever possible...
Hidden behind the Soul Society, the big shots in the Squad Zero all turned into little quails after Sōgo returned from Hueco Mundo... tacitly approving of everything Sōgo Shihoin.
Only the Central 46 Chambers, composed of forty sages and six judges, were truly honest; each and every one of them was a genuinely sincere group, all genuinely wanting to bring down the Shihoin Family...
But now, the forty-six most honest and upright people in Soul Society are all dead...
In other words, in this world, the last people who lived and seriously played the game with Sōgo were all dead.
This still saddened Sōgo deeply.
After all, everyone who plays games prefers to play with people who can seriously engage in the game...
"This is really sad~"
Yoruichi Shihōin understood Sōgo's pain. She smiled as she recounted how the deaths of the Central 46 Chambers Sages were truly gratifying—no... more like heartbreaking. She was so grief-stricken that she couldn't control her emotions... Don't be fooled by her smile; inwardly, she was laughing hysterically...
"Well, how should I put it? They really are siblings!"
As Uryū Ishida watched the brother and sister smiling and discussing the life and death of others, he felt a chill run down his spine. His face stiffened, and his eyes twitched slightly involuntarily.
His initial slight doubt about whether the two were siblings was shattered by the incredibly similar expressions of the person and the cat before him, and their lawless values. He realized that the person and the cat were either born of the same mother or raised in the same family, and that they were unworthy of their arrogant attitude of looking down on everything and treating life as a game.
