Chapter 142: Are the New Recruits This Bold?
Chapter 142: Are the New Recruits This Bold?
"Since everyone is here, Vice-President Yijiancun, it's up to you to explain the main agenda of this meeting."
"Eh, do I have to be the one?"
After receiving a punch from Shasou Elder Brother, Yijiancun, with his eye sockets swollen, reluctantly spoke, "The main purpose of this gathering is regarding our Male Shinigami Association's activity funds, which were intercepted by the Female Shinigami Association next door.
Due to the insufficient funds, our Male Shinigami Association not only struggles to attract new members, but we've also received numerous resignation requests recently."
After Yijiancun Hachi Senhe, the Vice-President of the Male Shinigami Association, finished explaining the agenda of this assembly, Shasou Elder Brother also cooperated by displaying a worried expression. He turned to the crowd and said, "The situation is roughly as I've described. Everyone here is either a veteran or a core member of our association.
If anyone has any ideas or solutions, please feel free to share them."
"It seems the problem is indeed quite serious..."
Upon hearing the association's dilemma, Yecheng, seated next to Fukuzaku, also put on a grave expression.
Fukuzaku, with his frail health, had few friends in the Seireitei whom he could confide in and have fun with, aside from Kyoku Rei Chun Shui.
The members of the Thirteenth Division were his subordinates, and the captains of other divisions either had incompatible personalities or a generation gap with him.
However, the atmosphere in the Male Shinigami Association, where everyone set aside their ranks and enjoyed each other's company, was evidently something Fukuzaku cherished.
He truly loved it here, surrounded by talented individuals who spoke eloquently.
"Damn it, Shasou President, our activity funds were intercepted by those female Shinigami, and you didn't inform us sooner?"
"That's right, we're all Shinigami, and moreover, we're all men. How can we tolerate being bullied by a bunch of women? This is intolerable!"
Upon hearing about the interception of their funds, the two newly appointed core members of the Male Shinigami Association, Kashiwazaki Shuhei and Yagami Igetsu, immediately voiced their thoughts.
However, as the new recruits passionately voiced their indignation, the other veterans in the room, like Yecheng and Daqianshen, unanimously chose to remain silent.
"Good, as expected of the core members I've chosen. Then, I'll leave this matter to Advisor Kashiwazaki and you, Yagami, to handle the negotiations with the Female Shinigami Association.
If this issue is successfully resolved, I'll promote you both to become officers of our Male Shinigami Association."
Yagami Igetsu, who had only recently become a Shinigami, was clearly still a greenhorn, and upon hearing Shasou Elder Brother's praise and pat on the shoulder, he excitedly expressed, "Shasou President, is negotiation the only solution?
Shouldn't we teach them a lesson so they won't dare to be so unreasonable in the future?"
Upon hearing Yagami Igetsu's words, the other members of the Male Shinigami Association looked at him in awe and quickly offered their own words of praise.
"As expected of someone handpicked and personally invited by Shasou President, we can't compare to such outstanding talent."
"This is what they call 'surpassing the master,' huh? With such exceptional juniors, it seems our Male Shinigami Association is on the rise!"
Yagami Igetsu, as a new recruit who had recently joined the Gotei 13, felt a bit overwhelmed by the praise from so many Shinigami captains, vice-captains, and seat officers. The shy boy couldn't help but feel a sense of elation.
However, Hisagi Shuhei, who joined the association around the same time but had already been a Shinigami for a while and was now a Seat Officer, sensed that something was amiss.
Feeling that the situation was not right, he discreetly nudged the drowsy Yecheng beside him with his elbow and asked, "Yecheng, what's the deal with the Female Shinigami Association? From the looks of it, they don't seem like someone to be trifled with."
In Hisagi's opinion, although their Male Shinigami Association had a small number of members, they were either captains or vice-captains, and even the lower-ranked officers were formidable.
Forget about comparing them to ordinary private associations; even if they were to face off against any division in the Gotei 13, they should have held their own without fear.
"The Female Shinigami Association... it's not just a matter of being tricky or not. It's more like we can't afford to provoke them...
The Female Shinigami Association was established earlier than us, and the president is the vice-captain of the 11th Division, Kusa no E Shi Chian Liu.
Although she's a vice-captain like me, you should know the consequences of messing with the combat loli of the 11th Division, right?"
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Hisagi quickly recalled a rumor he had heard in the Seireitei about Captain Kusanagi of the 11th Division being an extreme loli-con...
"Aside from the difference in our presidents, the members of the Female Shinigami Association are so luxurious that we can't even compare.
Among their known members, there's the vice-president, Ise Shitsuyo, the vice-captain of the 8th Division, and Captain Uzumihana, who serves as the chairman.
Their core members also include Captain Saifu of the 2nd Division, Vice-Captain Fujimaru Tetsu of the 4th Division, Vice-Captain Matsubara Ranju of the 10th Division, and Vice-Captain Nein Moe of the 12th Division."
After hearing about the impressive lineup of the Female Shinigami Association, Hisagi, who had initially been confident, suddenly fell silent.
Damn, no wonder Elder Brother Shasou didn't dare to confront the Female Shinigami Association for an explanation. It's not that he didn't have the guts.
Almost every well-known female Shinigami in the Gotei 13 is a member of the Female Shinigami Association, and their core members are either captains or vice-captains.
On their side, they only had Captain Fukutsuki, while the other side had two Shinigami captains and even more vice-captains.
And they were still planning to confront them? This was clearly a suicide mission! No wonder the other members of the Male Shinigami Association looked at them, the two rookies, with such admiration; it all made sense now!
As he watched Job-hunting Newbie Kyoraku Shunsui stand up and pat his chest vigorously, indicating that he and Hisagi would definitely complete the task, Hisagi's expression darkened.
"President Shasou, I suddenly feel unwell, so can I leave this matter to Kyoraku to handle alone?
Although I've only been a Shinigami for a short time, I've long realized that Kyoraku is a man with great masculinity. I believe he can accomplish this task by himself."
Seeing Hisagi's unwavering trust in him, Kyoraku was deeply moved. However, he also felt that he couldn't abandon his good brother. So, he immediately expressed his thoughts.
"Brother Hisagi, if you're feeling unwell, you can just observe from the sidelines.
Negotiations are something I can handle alone, and it's a great opportunity for us to integrate into the association!"
