Chapter 4: An Alternative Konso Method

We can ask Kisuke about it and go from there.

Yeah, I think that's a good idea.

Knowing him, he probably has some sort of item that lets you perform Konso!

(That's not even possible!)

(What are these suspicious humans? Are they plotting to do something?)

At the very least, we can ask for a way to contact that Soul Reaper there while Ichigo's gone.

Yeah, let's go see Kisuke!

I can't let those weirdos cause trouble on my watch.

I've gotta do something!

I see, I see. I understand what you're trying to do.

But you know I run a business here. I can't just take on these tasks free of charge.

Don't be so stingy!

Wait, who is this guy?

Oh, hello there. I'm just a lowly candy shop owner.

How does a normal candy shop owner know things about Soul Reapers and Konso?

Oh, you flatter me.

I didn't compliment you!

Alright, here's a special offer.

If you can win against me in a fight, I'll try to figure something out for you.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I mean, if I refuse now and lose my customers for good, it would defeat the purpose of business.

Then, we'll take you up on it!

We're on!

That was beyond my expectations. I didn't think you'd all become so strong.

Woohoo! Victory is ours!

Now we'll be able to perform the Konso even if Ichigo's not around!

Now, now. Don't you get ahead of yourselves.

Hm?

I never said it'd be just one fight! It's best out of three!

Gawd, you're petty!

What are you, a 5 year-old?!

No one's gonna tell me who this guy is?
