When it was time for dinner, Chojiro came over with a lunch box to deliver the meal, and Yamabuki was sitting at the door with his arms and legs crossed.
Chojiro looked inside with curiosity. Yamabuki slapped Chojiro hard on the back of his head and said, "What are you looking at, boy?"
Chojiro asked quietly, "Brother Yamabuki, can you take care of her by yourself? Do you want me to send a few more people?"
"Do you think if I can't even watch her, let alone you not even Uncle or Saito could do it? And besides, I heard that you were the first one to rush forward when she rushed in?" Yamabuki looked at Chojiro with a smile: "You are quite brave!"
A shy smile appeared on Chojiro's face.
"But I heard that you were also the first one to be killed. Can't you see the difference in strength between the opponent and yourself before charging forward?" Yamabuki slapped Chojiro's head hard: "There is no shame in strategic retreat. Well, let me see, what delicious food do you have today?"
Chojiro opened the food box, and a fragrant aroma came out instantly.
Today there was stewed meat, fried fish, stir-fried vegetables, and two bowls of white rice. Yamabuki was very hungry when he saw it.
"The food in the cafeteria today is so good? I should have eaten first before coming back." Yamabuki picked up a portion of food and placed it at the door where Unohana was imprisoned: "It's time to eat!"
Chojiro pouted and said, "This is a special meal Hanako prepared for you. She wouldn't even give it to me if I wanted to! But is it okay to feed this to a prisoner? Won't she run away if she's full?"
Yamabuki narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Chojiro said viciously, "She should be starved to death so that she won't have the strength to escape."
Yamabuki said to Unohana in the room, "Did you hear that? This has nothing to do with me. This guy said it. If you are hungry, go find this guy and settle the score!"
Chojiro's face turned green. This is not the way to cheat people.
"By the way, you are still handcuffed. It must be inconvenient to eat. Let me help you open them." Yamabuki took out the key and opened the handcuffs on Unohana's hands.
Chojiro's expression became even uglier. "Brother Yamabuki, is it okay for you to help her remove the handcuffs? Is she sabotaging something?"
Yamabuki looked at Unohana and smiled, "She's been fed for now, she won't cause any more trouble; you can go back first!"
Chojiro was still curious. Could it be that this vicious woman destroyed the Soul Society just to eat? Since you are so powerful, can't you just tell us directly? Do you have to destroy it?
What a weird woman.
Yamabuki and Unohana started to eat across a wall. Well, Hanako's cooking skills have improved recently. Although Hanako has no talent in fighting, her housekeeping skills are almost full, and she also has basic medical knowledge.
At this time, Unohana handed out the bowl. The food in it had been all eaten up. It seemed that she was also hungry after fighting for such a long time.
"Why don't you go wash the dishes?" Yamabuki asked tentatively.
"Okay ." Unohana did not refuse. After washing the dishes, she came back here, and Yamabuki put the handcuffs on her again.
Unohana looked as if she wanted to say something but was hesitant. It seemed as if she had a lot to say but didn't know where to start.
"Any questions?"
"Um."
"Would you like to have some tea? Let's talk while we drink tea." asked Yamabuki .
"Um."
Yamabuki brewed a small pot of tea. This was good tea. He had begged for it the last time he went to the captain's office for a meeting.
Unohana took a sip of her tea and asked, "What on earth are you?"
Huh? Why does this sound like a scolding to me? What do you mean by "Who are you?" Can't you see that I'm such a big person?
"Humans don't have such strong recovery abilities. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago after experiencing such a battle." Unohana was very sure. Although she was not a doctor yet, she had killed too many people and knew very well where on the body would result in death if hit.
If it had been an ordinary person in the previous battle, he would have died in a heartbeat, but Yamabuki was still drinking tea with him in front of him.
Throwing aside all possibilities, the remaining answer, no matter how outrageous it is, is the truth.
There is only one truth.
"You are not human!"
This is the truth that Unohana learned.
"You are not a human! Your whole family is not a human!" Yamabuki complained. How am I not a human? Didn't I just awaken the Quincy's ability to control spirit particles and the Blut (Blood Dress)? Didn't I just awaken Hierro (Steel Skin) and Super-speed Regeneration? How am I not a human? Little girl, you have to provide evidence when you speak, or I'll sue you for defamation.
"Don't talk about me first. You have a serious problem now. You destroyed the Soul Society like this, and you killed half of the Central 46..".
"Nonsense, you clearly killed one of them. Don't try to put the blame on me." Unohana smiled.
"...Even if there was one person I killed, didn't most of them die at your hands? When the captain comes back, you'll be dead." There was no blame tone in Yamabuki 's words. What Unohana did was a first. Those bastards in the Central 46 were scared to death. There was no way they would let such a dangerous person live.
There was no trace of panic on Unohana's face. She just listened quietly as Yamabuki continued to speak.
"There is only one way to survive now, and that is to join our Gotoi 13. Our Gotoi 13 and the Central 46 are separate organizations. No matter how powerful they are, they cannot judge the members of the Gotoi 13. As long as you join the Gotoi 13, those old guys won't be able to do anything to you. Although the captain is usually stingy and often has a stern face, he is actually very protective of his people. And with your strength..." Yamabuki thought of Unohana's amazing strength. It would be impossible for her to be rejected if she joined the Gotoi 13 at this time.
Unohana did not give an answer immediately but looked up at the falling cherry blossoms and suddenly said, "I can join the Gotei 13, but I want to be in the same team with you. This is my only request."
"This..." Yamabuki is now the vice-captain of the first team. Does that mean Unohana will join the first team?
"Okay, I promise you." Yamabuki agreed immediately after a little hesitation. Anyway, he just wanted to trick the person in first.
Unohana smiled. "By the way, the clothes you put on me are very strange. I have never seen them in Rukongai. Are they new styles?"
"This is the most fashionable combination in Seireitei." Yamabuki said with his chest puffed out. He will be the person who will be leading the fashion world for the next thousand years.
Suddenly, the voice of Chojiro came from outside: "Brother Yamabuki, the captain is back!"
