Chapter 625: Don't You Want to See My Swimsuit?
Chapter 625: Don't You Want to See My Swimsuit?
"Let Brother Yecheng see me in a swimsuit!"
A certain image flashed through Hikasen To's mind, and a blush instantly appeared on her petite, rosy face.
"That's right, an opportunity like this might only come once in a lifetime. Are you really going to give up, To?"
Seeing Hikasen To's flushed face and her standing there in a daze, Ranzuki knew she had successfully manipulated her friend.
This celebration banquet was a done deal! Not only would Ranzuki be able to drink to her heart's content, but she could also relax and unwind after the exhausting events of the past few days.
It was true that Ranzuki knew Yecheng well, but most of the hobbies she had mentioned to Fushiro were actually Ranzuki's own, not Yecheng's...
It didn't matter anymore; whatever belonged to Yecheng was hers, and hers... At most, only half of it could be considered Yecheng's.
The two had been close friends for over a hundred years, and it wasn't the first time Yecheng had been taken advantage of by her.
Fushin considered Yecheng her closest friend, and Ranzuki felt the same way. It was just a matter of different ways of expressing it.
After the betrayal of the Kuchiki Clan, Yecheng had become the person she trusted the most in the entire Soul Society.
Ever since her birth, no one had ever indulged, comforted, and protected her like Yecheng.
If it weren't for that dog and his unclear relationships with countless women, Ranzuki might have fallen for him long ago.
Be that as it may, with the Kuchiki Clan's funding, Ranzuki could make many of her dreams come true.
It was already several days later when Yecheng learned about this matter from Hikasen To.
So, when Yecheng stormed into the Tentei Team to confront a certain well-endowed friend, it was already too late.
The Kuchiki Clan's efficiency was evident; not only had they booked a private beach in the Human World, but they had also prepared everything, including drinks, fruits, and barbecue supplies.
Furthermore, to express gratitude for Yecheng's favor, Kuchiki Fushiro sent invitations to all the captains and vice-captains of the Gotei 13 in Yecheng's name.
To ensure everyone enjoyed the banquet, the Kuchiki Clan submitted a request to the Captain-Commander for a 'team-building' event, offering to cover all expenses.
With the recent unrest in the Soul Society and the hard work of the Gotei 13's Shinigami, the Captain-Commander approved the request, especially since the 'team-building' event would be at no cost to the participants.
When Yecheng went to confront Ranzuki, the latter easily defused the situation with a simple statement, successfully manipulating Yecheng.
"Don't you, Yecheng, want to see the swimsuits of those female Shinigami in the Gotei 13?
Among those I invited, there are quite a few beautiful female Shinigami.
And the swimsuits I bought are quite sexy, too~"
Indeed, the reason Ranzuki was always fearless was that she had a firm grasp of her friend's character.
Even if, hypothetically, there were no swimsuits involved, and as long as Ranzuki showed a little softness and claimed it was her lifelong dream, Yecheng would eventually give in, despite his grumbling.
Although the reason for this gentle treatment was unclear, it was always the case.
And Ranju never asked why, because she also enjoyed this feeling.
That's how it was. Yecheng, who was originally going to settle the score with Ranju, ended up being confused by the so-called swimsuits.
To accommodate the invited Shinigami, they were able to wear their favorite swimwear, and the Kuchiki family not only rented out an entire beach but also took over a whole swimsuit shop, truly showing their wealth.
Ranju did not renege on her promise; she did invite many female Shinigami, and her own swimsuit was indeed quite sexy!
But when he saw that Kyoraku Harusumi was also invited and was drinking frozen sake on the beach while comfortably watching the swimsuit beauties, Yecheng's mood instantly exploded.
Although the swimsuit beauties were indeed stunning, there were others enjoying the scene besides just Yecheng!
It was the Kuchiki family's way of repaying his gratitude, but why was someone else enjoying it more than him?
People's joys and sorrows differ, and Yecheng's current feeling was that he had spent a lot of money, but the happiness was not exclusive to him.
No mistake, he was never a generous person. Thinking of how everyone was eating and playing, things that originally belonged to him alone, Yecheng couldn't help but feel a twinge of heartache.
"Hey, Yecheng, you don't seem very happy.
I heard that this beach party was specially held to celebrate you. As the host of the banquet, you can't stay gloomy like this."
Kyoraku Harusumi, sitting next to him, took a sip of sake and began to console Yecheng.
However, if one paid close attention, they would realize that although he was comforting Yecheng, he wasn't really paying attention.
Because while talking to Yecheng, Kyoraku Harusumi's gaze was not on Yecheng at all but was fixed on Ranju and the others playing beach volleyball not far away.
No mistake, whether it was Yecheng or Kyoraku Harusumi, the reason they chose this spot was that it was the best spot to watch the game!
To increase participation and make the games more enjoyable, Kuchiki Fushiro, at Ranju's suggestion, organized various competitions.
And each competition's champion received a substantial cash prize or gift.
Among these were beach volleyball, watermelon smashing, sandcastle building, swimming, and various other competitions.
Compared to other boring events, Yecheng was most interested in beach volleyball!
Or rather, what he cared about was not the volleyball but another type of game that was more visually stimulating.
The previous men's division matches had made Yecheng sleepy, but the two teams that took the court now instantly revived his drowsy spirit.
The beach volleyball players were on one side, Yae and Zabimaru, and on the other, Ranju and Chuso.
If it were a real fight, Ranju and Chuso, as two vice-captains, would naturally not be opponents for Yae and Zabimaru, two captain-level Shinigami.
But for fairness, the rules stated that no spiritual energy or Zanpakuto power could be used during the beach party games.
In other words, with only their physical fitness to rely on, the combination of Ranju and Chuso might not lose to the team of Yae and Zabimaru.
