These two character settings for Kuchiki Senya are truly disjointed.

"What an unmanageable child." Yamamoto's Heavy Strike narrowed his eyes, leaning on his cane with a frail appearance.

A genius who could inflict a single heavy slash to severely wound Shiba.

It had already stirred his love for talent; he even wanted to recruit him into the Gotei 13 immediately.

So.

He was always prepared to go to Shino Academy.

When Kuchiki Senya arrives, if he can withstand my single heavy slash, I will take him in directly.

But...

He really isn't coming to school!

His mind is full of romance and enjoying life!

The Kyouraku Clan.

A tense atmosphere as if a storm were about to break.

The Kyouraku Council.

"Crash!"

The head of the Kyouraku Clan suddenly smashed his teacup into fragments, the whiskers on his lips trembling violently.

His breathing was extremely coarse and heavy, and his pair of scarlet eyes seemed ready to devour someone!

"Damn it!"

"Hateful!"

"Does this Kuchiki Clan really think I dare not start an all-out war with them!"

Just now.

That old thing Kuchiki Ginrei actually sent someone to hold the Kyouraku Clan accountable! His own son is half-dead, yet they still want to hold him responsible!

"Head, please calm your anger; everything must be considered three times before acting," the clan elders beside him whispered softly.

"That Kuchiki Senya must be made to pay the price, but rashly starting an all-out war with the Kuchiki Clan is very irrational behavior."

Another elder shook his head, his brow full of sorrow.

When they first learned Shiba was severely injured, everyone was united in hatred against the enemy.

But.

The passage of time had cooled the minds of some people.

After all, Shiba did not die; the situation had not reached the point of life or death.

The Kuchiki Clan and the Kyouraku Clan are both colossal powers whose influence spreads across the entire Soul Society.

Moreover.

The Kuchiki Clan's Ginrei and Soujun are the captain and vice-captain of the 6th Division, and the Gotei 13 stands on the Kuchiki family's side.

To act rashly.

The Kyouraku Clan would likely fall into a disadvantage, which does not conform to the family's interests.

016, The Most Beautiful Dance of the Three Realms, Obtain the Yin-Yang Wind Curse!

"Could it be."

"Must we swallow our anger even when the sole heir is severely injured?" The head of the Kyouraku Clan widened his eyes, looking angrily at the crowd below.

The Kyouraku Clan.

Major decisions are issued by the council.

The head cannot control all power.

"Head, revenge must be taken."

"But, after all, Shiba is only severely injured right now; the two families have not reached the point of life or death, so an all-out war is unnecessary."

"We only need to target the culprit, Kuchiki Senya."

Some clan elders spoke earnestly.

"Forget it."

"Let it be as you say."

The head of the Kyouraku Clan spoke expressionlessly, and then the council members gathered together to discuss the next strategy.

Rukongai.

Senya Pavilion Branch.

A girl wearing a cherry-blossom-colored kimono, with a gentle and pure face like a crimson sky, looked up at Kuchiki Senya with gratitude.

Originally.

She was about to starve to death; she had even abandoned her younger sister to survive alone.

It was this person who gave her the hope to live again.

However.

Thinking of her younger sister, who had been abandoned while still in swaddling clothes, a conflicted look crossed Hinagiku's face.

"Lord Qianye, may I remain in Rukongai?"

"I have a younger sister who was lost in Rukongai. I want to look for her in my spare time, outside of work."

Hinagiku gazed up at Kuchiki Senya above her with pleading, dewy eyes.

"You may."

"From now on, the day-to-day management of the branch pavilion will be left to you."

Qianye has already changed into a loose-fitting yukata, took a sip of sake, and said in a lazy tone.

Talent is useful wherever it is placed.

The Qianye Pavilion branch really was short on a capable manager.

"However, you don't need to attend to everything personally. If you work hard and manage things well, the treatment at Qianye Pavilion is very generous."

"You can absolutely hire people to help you search."

Kuchiki Senya offered a casual word of advice.

In the original work.

This Hinagiku, the moment she heard any news, would go look on her own initiative. Running herself ragged for just five years, her body couldn't take it anymore.

She passed away directly.

With the Kuchiki clan's abundant resources sitting there unused, how could she not be exhausted?

"Th-thank you."

Hinagiku bowed deeply, her eyes brimming with gratitude.

Kuchiki Senya's words opened a whole new world to her.

"I-I have no way to repay you, so let me dance a piece for Boss Qianye."

Not long after.

The melodious sound of strings and flutes rose up.

Hinagiku, dressed in a cherry-pink kimono, danced the most earnest dance of her life.

……

In the venue.

The mama-san and the other girls there to apply were all dumbfounded, the hall utterly silent.

This kind of dance.

Had already surpassed the bounds of their comprehension — so beautiful it was almost otherworldly, as if it simply shouldn't exist in the mortal realm!

Above.
