"My strength isn't great, but perhaps due to a special constitution, I always seem to know things I shouldn't know, which also causes a lot of unwanted trouble..."

Sasuke sighed; he truly felt that his own strength was insufficient.

If it weren't for Huan Yin's abilities, his current fighting strength alone wouldn't necessarily be enough to defeat Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

"Why did you tell Ganju about the Soul King's revenge? Don't say it was just a coincidence. Judging from the current situation, you must be quite familiar with Rukia Kuchiki, right?"

Shiba Kukaku took a chair and placed it aside, then found a place to sit down and got straight to the point without any further ado.

She needed to know how credible it was that the idea of ​​disbanding the family would prevent the Spirit King from targeting them.

"Because he was the one who told me not to get involved in Ichigo Kurosaki's affairs, I told him to tell the Shiba family to stop getting involved in the affairs of the four noble families."

Sasuke, with an air of self-evident certainty, explained the background and context of his initial encounter with Shiba Ganju and the ensuing conversation.

Shiba Ganju advised him to stay away from trouble, saying that someone might be plotting against him, so he simply reciprocated in kind.

"If I really disband the Shiba clan, can you guarantee that nothing else will happen?"

Shiba Kukaku never expected that this kid would be so grateful.

Even if the clan is disbanded, as long as the Shiba family bloodline remains, will the Soul King really give up his hatred from back then?

"All I know is that the four noble families will not exist in the future, that's all."

Sasuke made no promises.

He hoped the Shiba family would disband, so he wouldn't have to find another excuse to deal with them.

But if they want to wait a little longer, there's no rush.

"I understand. Thank you for reminding me. If my brother and I need any help in the future, we can come here to find me."

After pondering for a long time, Shiba Kukaku stood up, opened the door, and let Sasuke leave first.

She needs to do something before she can disband the already small Shiba clan.

As for how credible Sasuke's words are...

Those two destroyed families are precedents. There were hardly any people left in the Shiba family to begin with, so what is there to worry about?

Besides, for a fallen noble family like them, what difference does it make whether they disband or not, except for the name?

"I look forward to having the opportunity to ask Ms. Shiba Kukaku for help in the future."

Sasuke smiled and said goodbye, leaving the secret room and returning to the reception room where Shiba Ganju and the others were.

Here, Rukia and Renji started fighting for some unknown reason, while Ganju Shiba watched the spectacle unfold.

"Sasuke, you're back! Renji, that bastard, he actually... he actually said he liked me! That kind of joke is just too much!"

Rukia, with one foot on Renji's back, saw Sasuke return and angrily demanded that Sasuke come over and give her judgment.

Why do you think he's not serious?

Sasuke could tell that Rukia also cared about Renji.

Curious, I sat down opposite them and watched the two continue their antics.

"I already said, I wasn't joking..."

Renji Abarai felt wronged. He just thought Rukia cared too much about that guy, so he rushed to confess his feelings. How could it be taken as a joke...?

"But...who would confess their feelings so suddenly, especially at a time like this..."

Rukia, annoyed, stomped on Renji's back twice more.

She came to Shiba's house to apologize and ask for forgiveness. This bastard first disrupted the rhythm, and then suddenly confessed his feelings in front of everyone. It's completely unreliable!

"I'm just afraid you'll fall for this little rascal..."

Renji was anything but polite, pointing in Sasuke's direction with eyes full of wariness towards his potential rival.

"what?"

Rukia glanced at Sasuke, blinked, and was momentarily confused about what was going on.

She couldn't understand why Renji would think she liked Sasuke; that was impossible!

This is still a teenager. How old is she? How can she still be thinking about a child?

Chapter 204 When Renji Suddenly Became Love-Obsessed

"How blind do you have to be to think Rukia has feelings for me? Did Byakuya Kuchiki beat you up twice and damage your head...?"

Sasuke was also completely bewildered. There was nothing between him and Rukia, so he shouldn't be blamed for this.

"You bastard Sasuke, you're the one who's blind! Rukia treats you differently..."

Renji Abarai stopped struggling and lay down on the ground, beginning to recount to Sasuke just how good Rukia was to him and how much she cared for him.

Rukia, who had been completely bewildered, sat down next to him and listened attentively to Renji's analysis.

"Looks like you've been observing quite carefully, but you also need to figure out who that is, Renji, you bastard, your brain is just for making your body look complete, isn't it!"

Rukia initially listened attentively, nodding repeatedly, because she genuinely cared about Sasuke, concerned about when his injuries would heal, and worried that he might be bullied...

But aren't these things quite normal?

She also cares about Ichigo Kurosaki, Captain Ukitake, her older brother, and even that brainless idiot Renji!

"Look, you're so fierce to me, but so unusually gentle to him. It's clearly a different story..."

Renji expressed that he was really wronged, because Rukia only beat him up, but was so gentle to this kid that it was heartbreaking.

"Show me what you're capable of, even if you're a little rude to him..."

Rukia gave up trying to explain. This idiot...

"He's a patient..."

Scratching his hair, Renji realized he really couldn't do it right now.

This kid is in such a terrible state. If he yells at someone because he's in a bad mood, how will he ever be able to show his face in public again?

Moreover, this isn't Sasuke's fault; that kid is indeed quite outstanding.

However, if his excellence were to make the girl he liked also think Sasuke was great, he would feel uneasy.

"You know he's a patient. Ever since I saw him in the real world, he's looked miserable. Why don't you go and give him a piece of your mind!"

Rukia glared angrily; from the moment she first saw Sasuke, she felt sadness and grief...

But she never told anyone about this inherent sadness, not even her older brother.

"When you two argue, can you find a different way to do it? Don't make arguing about who should yell at me the main point of your argument..."

Sasuke hugged the cat and rubbed its head repeatedly with his fingers to stop Ashura from laughing.

He was also helpless; these two guys' thought processes were really strange.

"No... Sasuke, don't worry about this. It's none of your business. I just want him to face reality..."

Rukia was busy arguing with Renji, so she waved to Sasuke, telling him not to get involved.

Seeing them arguing, Shiba Ganju covered his mouth with both hands, afraid that if he laughed too loudly, the two of them would become his target.

After all, he wasn't injured; he could actually get beaten up.

"You two keep arguing. I'm going out to see if there are any dessert shops around here. I'll buy some to take back and eat."

Not wanting to see the two of them arguing, Sasuke decided to go for a walk.

Although he likes to disrupt storylines, he has no intention of breaking up other people's romantic relationships.

"Let's stop arguing. I'll teach him a lesson when we get back. I've been around this area before, let's go together..."

Rukia saw Sasuke about to leave and followed him out.

As for Renji Abarai, all he could do now was follow behind and glare at him unhappily; there was really nothing else he could do.

"Rukia, I heard that the current head of the Shihouin family is still living in your house, and seems to be trying to get closer to you?"

After buying a bunch of things, Sasuke suddenly stopped and looked at Rukia as he walked towards the Seireitei.

The idea that Rukia might like him is just Renji's imagination.

However, it is true that the head of the Shihouin family has recently been staying at the Kuchiki residence and has been chatting with Rukia.

Whether it was to inquire about certain information, or if there was some other intention...

Who can really say for sure about something like this?

"Yushiro has been visiting me a lot these past few days, and he always brings me food and toys. Yesterday he even brought me a Cocoy plush toy, it's so big and so cute!"

Rukia smiled, her eyes crinkling as she remembered the gift she received yesterday.

As for the feud between the Shihouin family and Sasuke, that's not something she can concern herself with; she's only interested in the puppets right now.

"That bastard... I knew they were up to no good. Rukia, you should go back to the 13th Division, or even the 6th Division. Just don't give a damn about that Shihouin family!"

Renji suddenly realized that his rival wasn't Sasuke, whom Rukia had turned into a child, but rather the guys living in the Kuchiki family's house.

Moreover, whenever he thought about the other party's identity, the word "arranged marriage" inadvertently popped into his mind!

He absolutely cannot let Rukia become a sacrifice in the marriage alliance between the two families. As for the Shihouin family, let them get as far away as possible!

"But my older brother said I should stay at home and take care of the guests..."

Rukia looked completely innocent and said that she couldn't leave home, so there was nothing she could do.

Sasuke could clearly see that she was deliberately trying to anger Renji, but he couldn't expose her at a time like this.

"No, if you're going to stay at home, I'm going too!"

Renji was frantically pacing back and forth, worried that his sweetheart might be taken away, when suddenly he came up with a solution.

Since Rukia can't live outside, he can just move into the Kuchiki family's house!

From the moment the two confessed their feelings to the misunderstanding, and then Rukia finally agreed, Renji actually went to the Kuchiki family's house.

A few days later, when they saw Ichigo Kurosaki and the others off, Renji Abarai, covered in wounds, reappeared before them.

"Renji, did you get beaten up by Byakuya Kuchiki?"

Having been injured twice by Byakuya Kuchiki, Ichigo Kurosaki immediately recognized Renji's injuries upon seeing them.
