Chapter 1: Ginrei's Arrangement

Hah!

Yah!!

I see you're training hard as always, Byakuya.

Grandfather! You're home early today.

Is something the matter?

Well, I've brought back an interesting proposal for you.

What could it possibly be?

There is someone who has agreed to give you a training session.

Is this true?!

Indeed. I thought it would be helpful for you to train with someone new once in a while.

I brought this topic up with him, and he happily agreed to help.

Thank you very much, Grandfather!

You should thank him, not me.

Now, are you ready to leave?

Of course!

Hello!

Hey, there. Welcome.

Thank you very much for having me today. I look forward to your training!

Many thanks for allowing my grandson to train with you.

The pleasure's mine. It's good for our squad members to train with someone new as well.

Thank you for your kindness.

Well, I must return to my own duties. May I leave him in your care?

Yes, of course.

Thank you. Ah, and Byakuya, do not cause too much trouble here.

I promise, Grandfather!

Well, let's get started, shall we?

Yes, sir! Thank you!

Byakuya, my boy! You're really here!

What?! Yoruichi Shihoin?!

I heard you were having a training session with Jushiro, so I thought I'd come by to check it out.

I see you're having fun.

I was until you arrived.

Oh, are you done with your training already? Seems like you have a long way to go until you can beat me then!

I don't need any time to defeat you! I'll show you, right here and right now!

Hahaha! I see you have the bark but still no bite!

*Pant*... *Pant*...

Damn it! She got away.
