Death: Then stood in the sky.

"Shifuin Yoruichi".

Chapter 36 Traitor, Why Are You Standing Behind Me?

The corridor remained silent, seemingly without any abnormalities.

"Won't you speak?"

Or perhaps...

"You really think I didn't notice you've been secretly watching me for a long time?"

Aoshi stretched his hand forward.

That was a shadow in a dead corner of the corridor.

Whether it was an illusion or not, the shadowy figure seemed to suddenly come to life just as Aoshi's hand entered it.

Like a living mirror, it eventually vanished with the wind.

A slender hand grasped Aoshi, just as his hand was about to be buried deep in Touyama's flesh—but it had already touched him.

Aoshi looked across.

She was a woman with a long purple ponytail and healthy wheat-colored skin, who was smiling at her with golden eyes.

She looks to be 1.7 meters tall, but she is actually less than 1.6 meters tall; it's just that her confident aura makes her appear taller.

Former captain of the 2nd Division of the Gotei 13.

Former Commander-in-Chief of the Covert Operations, and concurrently Commander of the First Division Criminal Investigation Corps.

The twenty-second head of the Shifuin family, one of the five great noble families.

One of the truly most powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of Soul Society, Yoruichi Shifūin!

"Oh, you're still so sharp. I thought I could catch you off guard." Yoruichi Shifūin laughed heartily.

"A sneak attack? You're trying to take advantage of me, aren't you?" Qing Si sneered.

Despite Yoruichi Shifūin's high status, she is actually somewhat abstract in nature.

Kuchiki Byakuya was a silly and cheerful child when he was young, but he was tricked by Yoruichi Shifūin and developed a phobia of Yoruichi, which he still can't forget to this day.

"You're the one who's playing me, aren't you?" Yoruichi Shifūin squinted. "And when you say things like that, shouldn't you have taken your hand away first?"

Her gaze was lowered, looking at what was in front of her.

The hand remained there, unaware of its surroundings, as if it had always been there.

He even noticed her gaze and, oblivious to the danger, pinched her again.

Aoshi frankly said, "I'm just worried that your fabric will get stretched out."

Shifuin Yoru stared directly into the other's eyes: "You'd better just stay like this."

The words fell.

She vanished from the spot in a flash.

"I think I've told you many times already, don't just stand behind me like that." Qing Si glanced behind him.

There, Yoruichi Shihōin had one hand on her waist and the other around her shoulder in a chokehold position. However, the height difference between the two was quite large, making it look as if she was hanging on Seiji's back.

“You didn’t say that before,” Yoruichi Shifūin retorted.

"That's only because I was too weak back then. And as Yoruichi the Flash God, isn't it a bit inhuman to use such words to describe me back then, who was completely unable to resist you?"

Yoruichi Shifūin's Shunpo skill is extremely high; she is recognized as the strongest Shunpo user and has even earned the title of "God of Shunpo."

But she used that instantaneous speed to trick him, a beginner in Instant Step. It's understandable that Byakuya was traumatized by her.

"So you're acting like a human now?" Hearing this, Yoruichi Shifūin glanced at Seiji, certain memories flooding back. "When you first started learning Shunpo and Hakuda from me, you seemed normal enough, but afterwards, your behavior just didn't seem human at all, did it?"

You traitor, how dare you talk back to me!

Disciple! Why are you standing behind me!

Disciple, why are you holding me down!

That's incredibly disrespectful!

"I'm just returning to you everything you used on me." Before Qing Si could finish speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

Yoruichi Shifūin laughed loudly: "Don't forget who taught you Shunpo. Do you think you can escape like that? How naive!"

After she finished speaking, her figure twisted and contorted, then suddenly shattered and disappeared.

This is just a remnant!

"Then take a look behind you." Qing Si pressed hard against her.

“Then take a look behind you!” Shifuin Yoru retorted without backing down, but the bad news was that she couldn’t handle it, while the good news was that she could.

"Look behind you."

"Look behind you!"

Their figures flickered like falling frames, constantly shifting in the corridor.

"Look behind you."

"Look at you..." Yoruichi Shifūin stiffened, turned her head and complained, "Why are you holding my hands!"

"Do you submit or not?" Qing Si shouted.

"Heh." Yoruichi Shifuin sneered, her body suddenly fading away as if it had evaporated in an instant, leaving only a black tight-fitting combat suit falling to the ground.

"Hidden Footwork, Part Three of the Four Maple Leaves: Empty Cicada." Seeing Yoruichi Shifuin disappear, Seiji felt no surprise.

The Cicada is a higher-level movement technique derived from the Shunpo, created by Yoruichi Shifūin, the God of Shunpo.

The principle is to create a visual residue that can last for a long time by moving at high speed, making the enemy mistakenly think that they have hit the main body, when in fact only an outer garment has been left behind, and the person has already moved to another location.

Without making a sound, Aoji looked behind him and, sure enough, spotted Yoruichi Shifūin.

"Successful!"

Yoruichi Shifuin looked smug, but the next second, an outer garment fluttered down, and Seiji, who should have been choked by her, had disappeared from the spot.

The same stealth footwork, Part 3 of Four Maple Leaves: Empty Cicada!

Yoruichi Shifuin's pupils shrank slightly.

"It seems your mastery of Shunpo is now on par with mine." With that, Yoruichi Shihōin disappeared again, and another piece of clothing fell to the ground.

"Don't think you can numb me with these words. I won't fall for it again." Qing Si disappeared, clearly having been fooled by this trick more than once.

"You've really grown up. I used to be able to easily control you with one hand," Yoruichi Shihōin said, pressing him again.

“You couldn’t have held it with just one hand anyway,” Seiji retorted.

The two began to flit about in the corridor again.

A snapping sound.

The door was suddenly pushed open.

Matsumoto Rangiku rubbed her eyes and came out, looking at the empty corridor: "Did I hear that right? I definitely heard someone talking... Huh?!"

What's this?

Matsumoto Rangiku looked at the clothes lying on the ground with a puzzled expression.

and many more......

"Is this Seiji's clothing?" Matsumoto Rangiku picked up a piece of clothing from the ground, smelled it, and immediately confirmed that it was Seiji's scent. As for the rest...

Matsumoto Rangiku looked at the clothes that were clearly more than one size too small, and slowly squatted down to pick up a small purple lace top.

A woman's?

Matsumoto Rangiku looked at her suspiciously, then suddenly shouted, "Come out, I see you."

A long, deathly silence followed.

"Is that a misconception?"

Matsumoto Rangiku pondered for a moment, then bent down and gathered all the clothes, intending to take them back to her room and find out more about them tomorrow.

Click, the door closes.

In the shadows.

A head popped out.

It was Yoruichi Shifuin. "She went back."

Another head popped out from Yoruichi Shifūin's head.

This time it was Aoshi's turn. "Mm."

Yoruichi Shifūin clung to the wall, only her neck showing above her head: "She took our clothes."

Qing Si fell silent for a moment, then suggested, "Why don't you go and steal our clothes back?"

Upon hearing this, Yoruichi Shifūin looked displeased: "Why can't you go?"

"It's not appropriate for a man and a woman to be alone together so late at night."

"So, in the middle of the night, the two of us are fine like this? Hmm?"

Yoruichi Shifūin suddenly frowned, reached behind her back with one hand, paused for a moment, then stretched out her other hand, a smile in her eyes, "Tch, as expected, I can no longer control you with one hand."

Chapter 37 Brother, you smell so good

"Hurry up and put your clothes on."

"I'm wearing it, I'm wearing it, hehe. You're urging me so much, but your eyes aren't blinking. You're such a hypocrite. You probably wish I could stay like this forever."

"Stop arguing!"

"Hahaha."

Inside the room.

Yoruichi Shifuin smiled as she took the shirt that Seiji tossed to her, tilted her head back slightly, and put it on. The shirt instantly covered her beautiful figure. She tilted her head and flicked her long ponytail out from under the shirt, giving her a uniquely lazy, cat-like feeling.

Because of the difference in body size, the shirt was just the right size to cover her thighs, but as soon as she sat down cross-legged, the flaw was immediately exposed.

Noticing that Seiji's gaze was fixed on her, Yoruichi Shifūin asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

"Say it."

"Actually, it's that one, bro, I suddenly realized you smell really good."

"So that's what it is, hahaha."

Yoruichi Shifuin burst into laughter.

She wasn't actually very tall, less than 1.6 meters, but her figure was extremely beautiful, giving her a wild and beautiful appearance.

"Hurry up and put your clothes on, I can see your butterfly tattoo."

A black shihachi uniform was thrown at Yoruichi Shifūin's head. She reached out and took off the masculine-looking uniform, grinning as she said, "Don't you like it? Anyway, there aren't many people here."

Yoruichi Shifuin boldly raised her leg in front of Seiji and put on his shinigami uniform.

Hmm, it's a bit big.

The height difference between the two is actually quite obvious.

If it weren't for the fact that she was a beautiful woman with a noble background and the aura of a top-tier expert, making her appear even taller, Yoruichi Shifūin would feel like a tiny figurine in front of Seiji, once lifted up, she wouldn't be able to come down.

This situation became increasingly apparent as Seiji grew up.
