The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 255: Resignation

(Ryoto's pov)

It has been a long time since I rested like that. It was... great. Really great. But now relaxation time is over, and another Captain meeting, and I can feel the incoming annoyance that I'll experience there.

Let's just get over it.

---

*SLAM*

Yama-jii slammed his wooden staff against the floor as he always does at the beginning of all the meetings.

"We are upholding this meeting as another update came up from the ongoing case of disappearances in the Rukongai districts.

An anonymous informator left evidence that, after careful investigation, led us to believe that the culprit was none other than Kisuke Urahara, now ex-captain of Squad 12. It was discovered that he was conducting experiments on innocent souls with the help of Tessai Tsukabishi, now ex-Kido Corps commander. They didn't stop at them as three nights ago, they started using Soul Reapers as well, and some of his victims included the Captain of Squad 5, Shinji Hirako, Captain of Squad 3, Rojuro Otoribashi, Captain of Squad 10, Love Aikawa and Captain of Squad 9, Kensei Muguruma. Not to mention 3 Vice-Captains.

After being confined and judged by Central 46, he was unfortunately rescued by an unknown individual who was recently identified as Yoruichi Shihoin, now ex-captain of Squad 2 and ex-commander of the Stealth Corps.

We lost 6 captains, 3 lieutenants, and both Grand and Vice Kido Chief. It's a crisis that hasn't happened in a long time.

As of today, I declare that all of these previously mentioned are criminals!" Yama-jii glanced at me when he said that.

"What about the victims? If they somehow survived the so-called hollowfication, what should we do about them?" One of the captains asked.

"Before Kisuke Urahara was rescued, Central 46 declared that all of the individuals that went through hollowfication will be treated strictly as Hollows and dealt with as such."

There was a solemn silence in the hall until the current Kenpachi decided to speak up.

"As always, a bunch of weaklings can't do anything right. If I was sent there, that whole incident wouldn't even happen." He said as he was scratching his belly. "And speaking of all these weaklings, maybe we should dispose of another captain. For all we know, the closed eyes, glasses-wearing freak could be a spy for Kisuke Urahara."

Kiganjo continued talking as I allowed him... for now.

"He was, after all, close with the three traitors. We don't know what he is planning. For all we know, even his children could be-"

His talking stopped as he felt my killing intent. Pure killing intent without raising my Reiatsu. I wanted him to know that he was walking on a thin line. I don't care how much he tries to annoy me, but my children are off-limit, but my fun was interrupted.

"Yuuki!" My teacher calmed me down by calling my surname. He only does that when I'm in trouble. "We already lost too many captains. Don't make my job harder by killing another one." He threatened me, but in reality, it was a light wrist slap. Not to mention, he believed that I could kill Kiganjo. "It was also directed at you, Kiganjo Kenpachi. Just because you are a Captain and the current Kenpachi doesn't mean that you are the strongest. There will come a day when another Kenpachi comes to take your title just as it happened before you became one."

At this, Kiganjo scoffed, but at least I won't need to listen to his rumbling.

"I have a proposition that will solve a small part of the problem." I voiced, and it earned me a raised eyebrow from Yamamoto.

"Let's hear it."

The meeting was eventful, and I did what I planned to do from the beginning. I don't want to spoil a surprise, but let's just say that someone is getting a promotion.

I returned home, where Rin was preparing dinner. Isane was out with her sister, and most of the kids were out training, spending time with friends... friend, or doing something they were not telling me. You know, teenage stuff. It sounds bad, but that was what I was doing when I was younger, plus some sexy time.

I'm starting to think that my children are more responsible than I was at their age.

"I'm home." I announced and unsurprisingly got a warm welcome from not only Rin, who was wearing an apron at the moment but also Rangiku, who was lazing around the house.

Rin was a bit awkward at first, as the last time she saw me was when she was pretty angry at Yoruichi, but a quick kiss melted her down.

"Not fair! I want a kiss too, Dad!" Rangiku complained, and I gave her a kiss on the cheek. It left only Gin to call me Dad, and I'll be a very happy man when he finally does.

"So... how is the plan going along?" I asked her 'secretly', at which Rin rolled her eyes but smiled, knowing what was going on.

"I think he'll soon break, but he'll never admit it even if he thinks of you as a parent."

That's right, Rangiku helps me with my issue and tries to get Gin to call me Dad. It's just a fun side activity.

"Can you leave Rin and me alone for now? I want to talk with her in private." I asked my adoptive daughter, and she pouted upon hearing my request.

"Fine, but promise me that you will take me shopping later on."

She stretched out her pinkie finger, telling me to promise her with a pinkie promise, and so I did precisely that.

After Rangiku left with a big smile on her face.

"You spoil her too much."

"Do I, though? Do I really?" I inquired to Rin.

"Yes."

I don't want to be part of this conversation anymore.

"Conveniently, I have another topic that needs to be addressed, Rin, so let's not accuse someone of giving love to his daughter, and let's focus on something completely different."

Am I shameless? Yes. Do I care? I wouldn't be shameless if I did.

"Sure, let's go with that. So why did you want Rangiku-chan to leave?" Rin started preparing a coffee for both of us as I sat at the table.

"I'm saving your motherly persona because what I'm going to tell you is going to make you lose it." Rin wasn't even fazed by my statement.

"After the last time, you shocked me about the whole complicated plan of yours and the traitor. I doubt that anything you say will be able to shock me."

She was pretty confident of it.

"I'm resigning from my position as a captain of Squad 7."

"... What?"
