Chapter 372: Emptied Out, So Give the Kidney a Slice?
Chapter 372: Emptied Out, So Give the Kidney a Slice?
Hearing someone address him as "Night City Big Bro," Night City was also a little dumbfounded. Aside from Matsumoto Rangiku, he didn't recognize any of the other girls from the Tenth Division.
And that Matsumoto, she would never call him "Night City Big Bro," so Night City was also perplexed at this moment.
Soon after, he spotted a petite girl with brown hair and big brown eyes looking at him with admiration.
"So it's Vice-Captain Hinasaki. I see, you also received an invitation? I heard from Captain Kuchiki earlier that you two are childhood friends. Now it seems that's indeed the case."
Hinasaki Momo and Kuchiki Toshiro had lived together in Soul Street for a while, so they were indeed childhood friends.
This time, with Toshiro's promotion to Captain of the Tenth Division, he naturally notified his long-awaited Momo first.
The reason was also simple. Although Toshiro's mentality was more mature than his peers, he was still just a young child. It was quite normal for him to have the desire to show off in front of his beloved.
This time, when Toshiro invited Hinasaki Momo, it was partly because she was indeed his best friend in the Seireitei.
On the other hand, he also wanted to prove to Hinasaki Momo that although he was still a young boy, he could do what the melancholy uncle, Gin Ichimaru, could do! However, although Hinasaki Momo was invited, as the Vice-Captain of the Fifth Division, she was quite popular in her division. But in the Tenth Division, they didn't give her much attention.
Because she arrived a bit late, the appointment ceremony for the First Division Captain, where Toshiro and Rangiku were, hadn't ended yet. So when Hinasaki Momo arrived at the Tenth Division barracks, she felt a bit out of place and somewhat anxious.
Just as she was thinking about whether she should leave and come back later after Toshiro and Rangiku returned, she spotted a familiar figure in the liveliest part of the banquet.
"Night City Big Bro, didn't I tell you many times before? You can just call me Momo.
You call Rangiku directly by her name, but you call me Vice-Captain Hinasaki. It makes me feel like you're being partial."
Hearing Night City's way of addressing her, Hinasaki Momo, who was originally happy, puffed up her cheeks and pretended to be angry, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll call you Momo from now on.
But I'm also worried. Captain Kuchiki is already a Captain now. If he finds out that his special nickname has been taken, won't he beat me to death...?"
Hearing Night City's playful words, Hinasaki Momo's expression changed from anger to joy, "Toshiro wouldn't be so petty. Besides, it's not even a special nickname. Rangiku and the others also call me Momo."
Seeing Hinasaki Momo sit down naturally beside Night City, her eyes filled with admiration, the Tenth Division's Seat Officers were also quick to maintain a safe distance from Night City.
"So Night City Third Seat and Vice-Captain Hinasaki are old acquaintances. Then, Night City Third Seat, please help us from the Tenth Division to entertain Vice-Captain Hinasaki. We won't disturb you."
The Tenth Division's Seat Officers were very enthusiastic, bringing various foods and drinks to Night City and even leaving them enough space to talk.
Such thoughtful actions would have touched Night City deeply if not for his sharp hearing, which picked up their muttered discussions.
"If I recall correctly, Hatomomo is the Vice-Captain of the Third Division and the childhood friend of the Captain, right?"
"Night City's Third Seat is so badass, he even dared to hit on the Captain's girlfriend."
"Come on, our Captain can't beat Night City's Third Seat, but I'm curious—isn't Night City's Third Seat interested in our Vice-Captain Matsumoto?"
"Night City's Third Seat can indeed defeat Captain Hitsugaya, but when it comes to Vice-Captain Matsumoto..."
"You're just guessing. In my opinion, Night City's Third Seat and Hatomomo are just ordinary friends."
"Although Hatomomo is indeed cute, her figure and looks can't compare to our Vice-Captain Matsumoto."
Upon hearing the Fourth Seat of the Tenth Division's words, Night City's eyes welled up with tears. Finally, someone was speaking the truth. If these bastards continued spreading rumors, his character might collapse.
However, before Night City could feel relieved, the Fourth Seat who had spoken the truth continued, "But it's hard to say. After all, different people have different preferences."
"Perhaps Night City's Third Seat doesn't like papaya but prefers apples or grapes?"
"I heard Night City's Third Seat is also close to the Kusajishi Clan's lady, and she, in turn, is close to Hatomomo. They're both the same type of woman."
Night City's sake cup was crushed in his hand. He had just been labeled a lolicon!
"Damn it, I'm so envious of Night City's Third Seat. With a face like that, whether he prefers mature women or lolis, he's never short of female attention."
There were rumors that Night City's Third Seat was a "Seireitei Deviant." Now it seemed they were true.
"Seireitei Deviant? What does that mean?" asked a newcomer curiously, and Night City, equally intrigued, leaned in to listen.
"A Deviant, a Boundary Breaker. It means Night City's Third Seat doesn't discriminate between women, whether they're mature or lolis, or even married women. He sweeps them all aside!"
Upon hearing such a vivid metaphor, the surrounding gossipers suddenly looked enlightened.
"I never thought Night City's Third Seat was like that. But can his kidneys handle it?"
"You don't understand, do you? Have you forgotten about Night City's Third Seat's Zanpakuto ability when he faced Captain Hitsugaya?"
"As long as his body is exhausted, he can just stab his kidneys and replenish his energy, right?"
As the gossip grew wilder, Night City, feeling his reputation tarnished, turned as dark as a pot.
Just as he was about to stand up and tear apart the mouth of the guy who called him a "Seireitei Deviant" and suggested "stabbing his kidneys to replenish his energy," Toshiro and Rangiku finally arrived.
After confirming his promotion to Captain of the Tenth Division, Toshiro had to get his body measurements taken in the First Division to tailor his Captain's Haori.
Rangiku also had to hand over the division's affairs, so they arrived a little later than the others.
When Toshiro saw Hatomomo, who had accepted his invitation, he was undoubtedly delighted. He regretted that his Captain's Haori hadn't arrived yet; otherwise, he could have shown off in front of her.
However, when he saw Hatomomo sitting next to Night City, paying no attention to him and looking at Night City with eyes full of adoration, Toshiro felt his head turning green.
