Crossover Anime: Transmigrated as Sasuke, but Must Start from Prince of Tennis

Chapter 179 I just wanted to protect my cat.

"Sasuke, even if you did something stupid, you can't just hide away forever. Look at Hinamori, she brings you food every day, she gets tired too!"

Upon seeing Sasuke, Kyoraku Shunsui walked over, put his arm around Sasuke's shoulder, and leaned in to tease him a bit.

He's been keeping a close eye on this for the past few days, since that matter is inextricably linked to him. It would be such a waste to drive a genius to despair.

"Sasuke, I think you did a great job!"

Soi Fon suddenly appeared beside Sasuke, snatched him from Kyoraku Shunsui's hands, and led him aside, expressing her appreciation for his earlier actions in protecting the cat.

She is the only one so far who feels that Sasuke was right to protect the cat.

Of course, not everyone else thought it was wrong. For example, Kenpachi Zaraki and Yachiru didn't think it was something that needed to be considered.

Kenpachi's advice is: protect if you want to protect, fight if you want to fight, there's absolutely no need for a reason!

"Hey, Captain Soi Fon, be a little more reliable. It would be fine if he was just protecting the tennis racket, but this cat is supposed to be guarding. Who would hold their shield in their arms to protect someone when they're being attacked?"

Kyoraku Shunsui glared angrily. He was about to teach this kid a lesson when he said, "Captain Soi Fon, don't make things worse."

"Cats are alive. Before they are transformed into Zanpakuto, they are like Shinigami (death gods). If their power is sealed, they will be killed. You just don't understand!"

Soi Fon didn't know what she was angry about, but looking at the little black cat trembling in Sasuke's arms, she felt that the anger in her heart could not be contained.

Others may not know, but the Second Division knows very well what Kyoraku Shunsui's role was in that incident!

"Captain Soi Fon..."

Seeing Soi Fon about to unleash her anger on him, Kyoraku Shunsui had to remind her to be mindful of her manners when she spoke.

Just because you like this cat doesn't mean you think it's been wronged and that it can't control its emotions.

"Captains, please stop arguing. Ashura is my partner, and it's my choice to protect each other. I can't bear the responsibility of causing you two to quarrel. I need to find the captains and get to work, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Sasuke broke free from Soi Fon's grasp, glanced at them one by one, and then, carrying the cat, headed towards the Fifth Division's office area.

He knew who did it, and he also knew who else was watching, but none of that mattered.

Next, we'll move on to the step of bringing Rukia back. As the fifth seat of the fifth division, he should cancel his sick leave and officially return to his post.

"Captain Kyoraku, there are some things I won't say, but don't go too far. As long as that cat doesn't do anything to harm Seireitei, I, Soi Fon, will protect it!"

After watching the person walk away, Soi Fon turned around and glared angrily at Kyoraku Shunsui, directly stating her attitude, before instantly leaving.

She had no romantic feelings for Sasuke, but seeing that cat reminded her of when she was chosen by Yoruichi.

Thankfully, the kitten's owner chose to protect it at the cost of her life, unlike her, who was carelessly abandoned when faced with trouble...

"Oh dear... how did I become the bad guy? This girl and that boy both hate me now, what's going on?!"

Kyoraku Shunsui sighed; he was truly embarrassed.

But can that cat really be sealed away?

How can you know if you don't try? But as things are now, it seems there's no way to try.

The Fifth Division Captain's Office.

"Sasuke, are you feeling any better now?"

Hinamori Momo looked up from a pile of documents as Sasuke walked in through the door and greeted him.

"Vice Captain, thank you for taking care of me these past few days. From now on, I'm back to work, so you don't need to bring me food anymore."

Sasuke found a seat and looked around, but didn't look at Hinamori Momo when he spoke.

The little black cat in his arms did not raise its paw to greet familiar people as it used to.

Silence. Both people and cats were excessively quiet at this moment.

"Sasuke, are you still angry with me?"

Hinamori Momo frowned in confusion. She knew she had gone too far with her words, and the captain had explained Ashura's situation to her.

She put down the documents in her hand, walked over to Sasuke, and sat down with him, lost in thought.

She wanted to apologize, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know how to begin.

"No, the vice-captain's way of understanding is the most normal, at least in the Soul Society. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm the one who's different from others, and being considered foolish by everyone is my personal behavior. I just hope that the vice-captain won't interfere with my relationship with Ashura anymore."

Sasuke shook his head, indicating he wasn't angry, but every word he uttered revealed his distance from everyone.

If you're not understood, then there's no need to understand, because they're just people who aren't related to you.

Hinamori Momo understood this meaning from Sasuke's words.

"No... Protecting Ashura is your job, none of us have the right to criticize you... I'm sorry, I went too far back then, I'm so sorry..."

Unable to find any reason, Hinamori Momo still apologized.

She couldn't defend herself; she was wrong, and that was that.

The captain said that if you make a mistake, you have to admit it...

"Since Vice-Captain Hinamori has apologized so sincerely, it would be a bit too much if I didn't accept it..."

Sasuke held the kitten and scratched its neck with his fingers, successfully making the curled-up cat lift its head.

"No, no, I just wanted to express my feelings. It's okay if you don't accept it. Please forgive my impetuousness..."

Hinamori Momo was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and apologized to Sasuke again, her face flushed.

"Um...it seems we've come at the wrong time..."

Aizen, who pushed open the office door, and the group of captains and vice-captains behind him were all dumbfounded by the current situation.

Since they had just arrived, all everyone outside the door heard was Hinamori Momo expressing her feelings...

This blushing face, saying it's okay if she doesn't accept, would make anyone think it's a confession, right?

"Captain, and all the captains, what a 'perfect' timing that you've come!"

Sasuke looked at Aizen with a puzzled expression.

He seriously suspected that the time this person brought the people here was deliberately timed.

"Oh my, Hinamori has grown up so much..."

Kyoraku Shunsui walked in as if there were no barriers between them, looking at Sasuke and Hinamori Momo with his usual joking.

"I accept your apology. I hope you will take good care of me from now on, Vice Captain Hinamori!"

Sasuke ignored everyone else, stood up and looked at Hinamori Momo, whose face was completely red, to show that he accepted the apology.

To show that he truly accepted, he even raised one of Ashura's little paws and waved it at Hinamori Momo.

"Hmm... I'll do my best, Sasuke too, and Ashura too!"

Hinamori Momo's eyes lit up instantly when she saw the tiny cat paws.

Having confirmed that the apology was successful, Hinamori Momo quickly walked to Aizen's side, her good mood written all over her face.

Chapter 180 The Eleventh Division Will Play Tennis with Sasuke

"The fish that Captain Soi Fon asked me to bring."

Retsu Unohana placed a food box on the table. She couldn't apologize to the boy like some people did, but the fact that she brought the fish for Soi Fon was already a way of showing her attitude.

"Sasuke, come play tennis with me! I'll let Hachi play with you, okay? Come on, come on!"

Yachiru sensed the tense atmosphere, so she came over, grabbed Sasuke's hand, and tried to lead him away from this unpleasant place.

"Captain, do I have a mission today?"

Sasuke picked up Yachiru with one hand and turned to look at Aizen.

He didn't want to dwell on what these captains and vice-captains were doing there. Since these people were rejecting him, he would find people who didn't reject him to hang out with.

Moreover, the bigger his temper, the more likely he is to be the trigger for a meltdown when something happens.

"No, go have fun, take this fish with you."

Aizen pointed to the food box. Although Retsu Unohana was the captain of the medical team, Sasuke was not someone Sasuke could afford to offend for the time being.

When he first learned of the identity of the first Kenpachi, he was shocked; he was truly a ruthless being.

"Okay, thank you, Captain Unohana!"

Sasuke asked Yachiru to help carry the food box, and then he left the Fifth Division's captain's office with the cat in one arm and the person in the other.

He wasn't interested in what the others who stayed behind wanted to discuss; Aizen would talk to him privately about anything related to him.

"Hachi, we're here! Why don't you play tennis with Sasuke? He was bullied and felt really bad."

Upon arriving at the Eleventh Division's training ground, Yachiru stepped on Sasuke's arm, jumped up, and pounced on Kenpachi Zaraki.

Leaning on Kenpachi Zaraki's shoulder, she didn't care what the consequences would be and began to complain on Sasuke's behalf.

As expected, the officers of the Eleventh Division were dumbfounded, their eyes sweeping over Sasuke, feeling that the so-called grievances had absolutely nothing to do with this kid.

"I can't play tennis..."

Kenpachi Zaraki was completely cornered by Yachiru, so all we can say is that he really doesn't know how to do this.

If it's about cutting something, then there's absolutely no problem.

But that kind of back-and-forth tennis...

He always falls asleep whenever he watches Yachiru and Sasuke play tennis.

"I'll do it, Vice-Captain. I'll play tennis with Sasuke. I've even studied professional techniques!"

Ayasegawa Yumichika sheathed the Zanpakuto he had been practicing with, and seeing his captain's unusual hesitation, decided to go himself.

As for studying...

He had read the tennis beginner's manual.

Previously, because Sasuke's tennis Zanpakuto had extremely strong explosive power, and it was said that the strongest move could instantly kill five Hollows, everyone brushed up on their tennis knowledge in order to improve their strength.

Then everyone realized that tennis was really unpleasant.

This is a foul, that is not allowed, they are all restrictions!

Apart from Yumichika Ayasegawa, everyone else kept their distance from tennis, and the one who least wanted to touch it was their captain, Kenpachi Zaraki.
