"Sister Haiyan, Sister Shiba, I'm here to visit you."
Natsuhiko came to the door of Shiba's house. He received an invitation from Shiba Petrel a few days ago to entertain Natsuhiko at home, especially to thank Natsuhiko for saving Shiba.
Although Natsuhiko felt that there was no need to specifically thank him, he still gladly agreed.
Today, he came to Shiba's house. After knocking on the door, Shiba Petrel and Shiba both came out to greet him.
Shiba's family has now left Bellingham and lived in Drifting Soul Street.
Although he and Shiba can live in Bellingham with their identity, it is said that Shiba's family moved out of Soul Society a long time ago. After Shiba Petrel became the Shinigami, she didn't plan to move back.
Of course, the two usually live in the Thirteen Regiments and won't leave Bellingham easily, but their hometown is here.
Shiba's house is very big, and it wasn't built underground like later. There are two courtyards with long corridors in front and back, and the iconic chimney still stands in the distance.
This is the Shiba family's cannon, made with the technology passed down by Shiba's family, and it is also the main equipment to launch the Heaven's Pillar chariot.
"Natsuhiko -san, come in quickly." Shiba Petrel said with a smile.
Natsuhiko followed the two and walked into Shiba's house. Inside the door stood two tall figures, nearly three meters tall.
Shiba Petrel introduced: "This is Jin Yan and Yin Yan, the retainers of Shiba's family."
"Natsuhiko -sama." The two saluted Natsuhiko.
"Too loud."
Shiba Petrel pushed the two away and took Natsuhiko to the living room. Natsuhiko took off his shoes and got on the tatami. Shiba Petrel said: "Sit down."
The two knelt beside the tatami mats, and Shiba poured tea, served them some food, and also knelt beside Shiba Haiyan.
"Natsuhiko, I invited you today mainly to thank you for saving Shiba's life a few days ago. Without you, she would've died there.
Thank you, Natsuhiko. "
Shiba Petrel said with her hands on her knees, her upper body slightly leaned forward, and her head lowered.
"Brother Natsuhiko, thank you."
Shiba looked at Natsuhiko with a smile.
When Xia Yan saw the two, she quickly said, "Hai Yan senpai, Sister Shiba, there's no need to be so polite.
You're too formal. "
Shiba Petrel raised her head, looked at Natsuhiko, and said with a smile: "Why do you call me Shiba -san and Senpai?
Isn't that too distant? "
Natsuhiko looked at Shiba Petrel and said: "Because Shiba -san is beautiful and young, but Senpai, you …"
Shiba Petrel's forehead was blue, and said: "Are you saying that I'm ugly and old?"
Shiba covered her mouth and chuckled.
Natsuhiko said with a smile: "Senpai, I didn't say that."
Shiba Petrel said angrily: "But that's what you mean …"
Shiba couldn't bear it anymore and laughed out loud.
After a pause, Shiba Petrel said: "By the way, Natsuhiko, how long have you been in the Thirteen Regiments?"
Natsuhiko said: "It's been eight years now."
Shiba Petrel shook her head and said: "Eight years and you already have the strength of a captain, Natsuhiko, you're really amazing."
Natsuhiko said with a smile: "I still have some shortcomings, I need to work hard."
Natsuhiko's own weakness is that his Spiritual Pressure is relatively low, he can't reach the level seven Spiritual Pressure that the captain has. Even Shiba Petrel has a level seven Spiritual Pressure, he is a bit weaker than Shiba Petrel.
What he is better than Shiba Petrel is the Zanpakuto ability and the Shunpo technique.
But Shiba Petrel shouldn't take long to master the Bankai. A more obvious example is Ichimaru Yin.
One of the basic requirements to become a captain is to master the Bankai, then have the recommendation of the original captain, the attendance of the original team members, and the test of the head captain and three captains.
Ichimaru Yin is a genius after Shiba Petrel. They both graduated with a level six Spiritual Pressure, so the difference isn't too big.
Among the three geniuses, Ichimaru Yin took 60 years to master the Bankai after graduation, Hibanya Toshiro took less than 30 years after graduation.
Hisagi Shuhei took less than 60 years to master the Bankai after graduation, Renji Asanai and Lucia both took about 50 years to master the Bankai.
As for Shiba Petrel, it should be around the same time.
But it shouldn't be the case now, because Shiba Petrel that was swallowed by Metastasia was absorbed by the Nine Blade Yaronilo.
After Aruluyeli absorbed it and imitated it, he could only master the Shikai.
So Shiba Petrel probably hasn't mastered the Shikai yet, but as long as he's given time, it's estimated that he can master it in 10 or 20 years.
At that time, Shiba Petrel can compete with Natsuhiko's Shikai, and Natsuhiko may not be able to win.
"Kid, you're too humble."
Shiba Petrel said with a smile. He still wanted to say something, but at this moment, a figure rushed into the room and shouted, "Sorry, I came back late, I'm thirsty, let me drink some water first."
Along with the words, a figure came to the table, took the teacup on the table and drank it in one gulp. After drinking it, she looked at the teacup in front of Natsuhiko.
Natsuhiko noticed her gaze, raised the teacup, and said, "If you don't mind, I've drunk …"
Before Natsuhiko could finish his sentence, the other party snatched the teacup away and drank it in one gulp.
Natsuhiko took advantage of the time when the other party was drinking tea to look at her.
The woman was tall, her hair was wrapped in a headscarf, and two black braids hung down from the sides of her head.
Her eyebrows were like carving knives, her eyes were shining brightly, her nose was straight, and her lips were sexy, but the lines of her face were straight, giving her a more neutral feeling.
The most eye-catching thing was her figure. She had a sexy figure, wearing a red sleeveless short shirt with the word "Kong" engraved on her left arm, and the red shirt had a falling and collapsing vortex pattern.
Her figure was very good, her full breasts were about to burst out of her clothes, and her waist was slender and smooth.
She wore a white dress, but the side was wide open, revealing her sexy round thighs as she moved.
Her slender calves were wrapped in bandages, and her feet were wearing wooden clogs, and her body was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
This was Kōtsuru Shiba, Shiba Petrel's sister.
Unlike in history, the current Kōtsuru Shiba did not have a severed arm. If she had a severed arm, living in Bellingham, there were many ways to heal it, whether it was looking for the Fourth Regiments or using tonics.
With Shiba Petrel's identity, she could help Kōtsuru Shiba with her treatment.
And now, Kōtsuru Shiba had not become like in history, where she hated the Grim Reaper because of her brother's death. If she really lost an arm, she would receive treatment.
Therefore, Kōtsuru Shiba had not reached the point of losing her arm, and it seemed that such a situation was unlikely to happen in the future.
Kōtsuru Shiba drank the teacup in one gulp, sat down beside Natsuhiko, looked at Natsuhiko, and asked, "This is the kid who saved sister-in-law?"
Shiba Petrel said angrily, "Didn't I tell you that Natsuhiko would be here at three in the afternoon? Why did you come back so late?"
Kōtsuru Shiba said with a smile, "The family that asked me to set off the fireworks had something to do, so it was delayed a little. You can't blame me for that."
Natsuhiko suddenly thought of Kōtsuru Shiba's identity and asked, "Is this sister a pyrotechnician?"
Kōtsuru Shiba said proudly, "Yes, I am the best pyrotechnician in the entire Soul Society."
Shiba Petrel said angrily, "That's why you often cause explosions in the backyard, and people have complained about you many times."
Kōtsuru Shiba immediately ignored her and looked at Natsuhiko and asked, "Kid, do you want to see my laboratory?"
Natsuhiko was very curious about Kōtsuru Shiba's pyrotechnic technology, so he asked, "Can I?"
Kōtsuru Shiba said with a smile, "Then come with me."
Kōtsuru Shiba stood up and left with Natsuhiko, and the two disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Shiba Petrel scratched her head and said, "This Konghe took Natsuhiko away directly."
Natsuhiko said with a smile, "Isn't that good? It's a little uncomfortable for Natsuhiko to sit with us, so it's better to let Konghe accompany him."
Shiba Petrel said angrily, "And Shiba Iwajiu hasn't come back yet. My two brothers and sister are really troublesome."
