Kapitel 26: Say that again?
(3rd Person POV)
"So you actually stood before your Lieutenant and caught the blast from little Hinamori?", Shunsui asked Toji.
"Yeah, what do people believe I am? A puppet with a Captain's Haori? It seems that no one respects Captains anymore ... *Sigh*", Toji answers as he takes another sip from his sake.
"... hahaha no only you, my friend. It seems you might have to show some strength after all these years. Even if you don't like it.", Shunsui said and took a sip of sake himself.
"What? Why only me? Just look at what happened to your cute Lieutenant. She used to be the most adorable, cutest and nicest little woman but now ... she punches you and gets mad all the time ... *sigh* I miss the old days...", Toji countered.
"Well ... I guess you're right. Little Nanao did grow up fast. I still remember when you first met her and read her the story... time sure flies fast."
"Are ... are we getting old Shunsui? I mean look at Nanao ... just yesterday she was this small and now ... she's so big and pretty. We should make sure that no guy approaches her.", Toji nods sagely again.
"You're right. All those evil Shinigami men who only want to get close to Nanao for her good looks. But we know better don't we?", Shunsui said.
"We sure did. Nanao is a perfect lady. She is not only a pretty face. She is smart and skilled at the use of Kido as well as very capable in Zanjutsu and Hakuda.", Toji said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"You did teach her after all."
"Hah, what do you know? I guess I did. But what else can you expect from one of my little siblings?"
"Only the best indeed. Just look how great Nanao has become."
"I feel like we're repeating ourselves now. Should we not speak about those things so openly?", Toji asked.
The entire time, Nanao Ise had been standing in the room to the side of the two idiots and listening to them praising her and how good and pretty she now was. Her face was already steaming and as red as a tomato.
She couldn't hold her embarrassment anymore and just punched both of the Captains.
*Bam* *Bam*
"Enough of that! You should really take this Ryoka invasion more seriously. Stop praising me and focus on the Ryoka that appears to have just broken through the station gate."
"Huh?" "Huh?", both said at the same time.
"He's here already? Oh well... I guess I'd better head out ... unless ...", Shunsui said and then looked at Toji.
"What? You expect ME to get up from this comfortable position and fight the Ryoka that looks like he wouldn't hurt a fly?"
"Yes? You could improve your reputation."
"Indeed Captain Fushiguro. I also don't like that others belittle you and call you weak. This would allow others to see your true strength.", Nanao said.
"Oh, my little Nanao thinks about me. I am so happy...", Toji said before another fist hit him on the head.
*Bam*
"Be serious Captain Fushiguro."
"You do know that you can just call me Toji ... or Ni-san ... or something like that, right?", Toji told her.
Her face was terribly red, but thanks to his nigh immeasurable density he didn't notice something like that.
"Ok ok, why not? Let's go Shunsui we have a human to demoralise and grant him the honour of meeting the Captain Killer in person.", Toji said and stood up to stretch.
"Will you really both be going? It's just one Ryoka, this hardly needs the attention of a Captain much less two...", Nanao asked.
"I don't understand Nanao-chan. First, you say I should get out and show some of my power and now you say that two Captains is too much ..."
"I'm your Lieutenant, Captain Kyoraku. I should be able to handle it.", Nanao explains.
"Listen Nanao-chan ... It's Yama-ji's orders, so it can't be helped. He doesn't want anyone to think we're still having trouble with Ryoka. Don't look so worried ... it'll be over before you know it.", Shunsui says.
"Shunsui's right Nanao-chan. This is a joke that you are more than capable of handling. But it seems to be a prestige matter now, so a Captain should take care of it. No matter how dumb that is.", Toji explains.
"Yeah, I'll just have some fun.", Shunsui says.

Sado incapacitates several more Shinigami with another energy blast that blasts a big hole in the wall and knocks the Shinigami out. He is confronted by 3rd Seat Tatsufusa Enjoji.
"Wait! You've come far enough, you foolish Ryoka!", the man says and stands before Sado. He is taller than him and looks down on Sado for that.
"I am the Assistant Adjutant and Third Seat of Squad Eight. Tatsufusa Enjoji. You have chosen the wrong path! Hahahaha.
From the moment I arrived here, this path is a dead-end for you!", Tstsufusa says and grabs his Zanpakuto.
He unsheaths the Zanpakuto and begins to slash the air all around while making the strangest sounds imaginable.
"Waaazaa ... wadadada wadaaaaa wadadadadaaa..."
"Now, now, what's the matter?! Wadadadada waaadaaaa .... Can't make a move? Nothing to be ashamed of. That's normal. After all, this is the technique of the great swordsman, Tatsufusa Enjoji!
So far, not one has defeated-!"
*BAAM*
Sado's fist impacts the poor third seat's face and he shoots in the air like a deflated balloon, utterly devoid of control or dignity.
After the sorry excuse of a third seat has disappeared from view, Sado continues to make his way towards the Eight Division Headquarters.
"Wow! Good job!", a voice says.
Sado is surprised and stops running. He looks around but doesn't see anyone. Then he notices two people above him and one of them glides to the ground, standing before Sado.
"I'm the Captain of Squad Eight, Shunsui Kyoraku. And this is the Captain of Squad 3, Toji Fushiguro. Pleased to meet you.", Shunsui introduces both of them.
"Squad Eight ... Captain ... and Squad Three Captian ...", Sado says.
"Yup! How do you do?", Shunsui asks with his usual laid-back attitude.
It somehow continues to rain down flower petals from above and Shunsui and Toji look up to see Nanao sending them down on the two.
"Oh, Nanao-chan that is enough flower petals.", Shunsui says but she doesn't stop, "maybe she didn't hear me?"
"No, she definitely did. She's just messing around again. Our poor Nanao-chan is bullying us again. I don't know where I went wrong when I taught her ...", Toji said.
"Cute Cute Nanao-chan you can stop now, please. Lovely Lovely Nanao-chan."
Nanao then pours all the petals on both of the Captains and then sends the bucket down as well.
"Sorry but ... I don't have time for your skit. Let me pass.", Sado says.
"What? Can't you get in the groove a bit? Everyone's so indifferent.", Shunsui asks him.
"I'm in a hurry, please move aside.", Sado says.
"Well at least he's polite.", Toji says.
"You are Toji Fushiguro ... yes?", Sado asks.
"Eh? You know me?", Toji asks.
"You are just how Mr. Yoruichi described you.", Sado said, "You are silly, never take anything seriously and ..."
"And what?"
"Mr. Yoruichi says that you are the weakest of all the Captains ... but I should avoid you nonetheless. You guys don't seem like bad guys, so please let me pass. If possible ... I don't want to fight you."
"..."
"..."
"Nani?", Toji asks
"Oho ... now you did it, Ryoka boy. You got Toji serious.", Shunsui said. He was also surprised that this Mr. Yoruichi knew about them and apparently spoke about them.
"Say that again?", Toji said and as he said that a menacing and sinister aura emanated from him.
.

(Sado POV)
I felt suffocated and couldn't breathe. My knees were weak and my head began to spin rapidly. My vision became blurred. I felt sick and my normally rather 'darker' complexion became Ashen white.
"I said ... say that again?"
This time the voice of this Toji was right in front of me. When had he moved? And how did he get so close to me without me noticing? Was this for real? Am I in an illusion? Was this the power of a Captain-class Shinigami?
What is happening to me? Someone ... help ...
My vision turned darker and darker. I could hear my heartbeat in my ears. It was slowing down and just when I thought that this was it and I was going to die ... the pressure stopped.
"Haaaa Haaaa Haaaa ..."
I took deep breaths and tried to focus. I saw that the Captian of the Eighth Division had his hand on this Toji Fushiguro ... Mr. Yoruichi was wrong... this was a dangerous man ... or they were all like this ...
"Calm down Toji ... You are going to embarrass me if they find out that you were the one to take care of the Ryoka that infiltrated my barracks."
.

(3rd Person POV)
Toji calmed down a bit after Shunsui put his hands on his shoulder. He was angry now. Actually angry. This was the first time in CENTURIES that he was angry.
The last time was when he found Captian Chigiri Shijima, the first Captain of Squad 4 before Unohana, conducting torture on Shinigami in his basement to feed his dark Zanpakuto with the bad emotions to make it more powerful.
That was also the second time Toji fought and killed a Captian of the Gotei 13. It was where his nickname Captain Killer came from.
And now it seemed like some nobody was insulting him and spewing bullshit. He was gonna have a word with the 'Mr. Yoruichi', and you can believe that!
"You can handle it Shunsui.", Toji said and started to walk away.
"Yeah ...", Shunsui watched as his friends walked away leaving him with Sado alone in the courtyard of Squad 8.
He turned towards Sado and began his talk with him.
"Well then ... Neither one of us wants to fight. But I can't let you pass, either. Isn't there any way you could just withdraw?", he asked Sado.
"I can't do that.", Sado said. He was now more focused than before. That was to be expected after he nearly died from Toji's aura alone.
"I see. Then you leave me no choice.", Shunsui said.
Sado got ready to fight and prepared himself as much as he could. He felt pressured right now after his experience. However ...
"... Let's have a friendly drink!", Shunsui said and placed the small jug of sake on the ground.
"Huh?!"
"Well if you can't withdraw, I thought maybe you could stop here for a while at least. It's just for a little while..."
"I cannot!", Sado said.
"Why not?"
"It's the law. Minors can't drink alcohol."
"Oh yeah. That's a problem. That's no good, is it? Well, it can't be helped then ... The other captains are on the move too. This battle will soon be over. So if you could sit out until ..."
"The other Captains? So Ichigo and the others are being pursued by the captains as well?", Sado asked alarmed.
"The situation has changed."
"Mr. Kyoraku, please move out of my way now!"
"And if I say I don't want to?", Shunsui asks and takes a sip of his sake.
"I won't let you!!", Sado says and fires an energy blast in an attempt to force Shunsui to move, only for Shunsui to deflect the blast with a single hand.
Sado while surprised, doesn't stop and fires one energy blast after the other, while Shunsui proceeds to dodge each of Sado's subsequent blasts. Then Shunsui extends the index and middle fingers of his right hand in unison and makes contact with Sado's shoulder, who is sent flying several meters away by the Hakuda technique.
Shunsui tells Sado to stop and warns him that he will kill himself by draining his life force with his energy blasts if he continues.
Sado explains that he is putting his life on the line for Rukia because Ichigo wants to save her.
"Well if you're that determined, it would be insulting to ask you to go away. I guess it can't be helped.", Shunsui says.
Shunsui draws his twin Zanpakutō to fight Sado seriously. Sado who has promised to use his fists only to protect others and therefore Ichigo, rushes forward. Remembering the promise he made with Ichigo to fight for each other, Sado prepares to unleash one final blast.
But it's no use. Sado is cut down by Shunsui.
