A few days later, at Jin's private residence.
The area was even more exaggerated than the Hokage Building beneath the Hokage Rock, by a third.
Inside the new Hard Shell Tower, seemingly modeled after Fish-Man Island's Hard Shell Tower, the silver moon hung high, its pure moonlight streaming through the window into the tower.
This was the new Hard Shell Tower Jin specially built for Shirahoshi.
Under Shirahoshi's astonished gaze, as Jin's aura suddenly changed and he lowly uttered the words 'Multi-Size Technique', Shirahoshi only felt a large hand wrap around her delicate shoulder.
Then her face was pressed against a warm chest.
After all, her size was too exaggerated.
According to her father, one month after her birth, her mother Otohime could no longer hold her.
And ever since Shirahoshi could remember, whether it was her father or her brothers, when comforting her, they could at most stand on tiptoe and pat her forehead.
After all, the size difference was too great.
This feeling of being held in someone's arms was truly the first time since her birth.
It made Shirahoshi's heart pound fiercely.
Immediately after, Shirahoshi felt a warm breath by her ear.
"Shirahoshi, do you know about Pokémon?"
"Huh?"
"I'm Jin from Pallet Town. My starter Pokémon Squirtle is missing. Can you help me find it?"
"Ji-Jin-sama... what are you talking about? I don't know..."
Although many people say, 'In youth, one doesn't know a sister's goodness, mistakenly treasuring a younger sister', the advantages possessed by a teenage girl in her prime are something many aunties can't hope to match even if they tried. (T/N: It seems to indicate that people often liked younger girls, when mature women are better.)
That delicate, smooth face that seems like it would break at a touch, the faint down on her fair skin only visible up close, and the pure, natural shyness unique to young girls are all things older women cannot imitate.
Just like Hancock.
She's basically the best at acting cute among Jin's women.
But she still lacks that pure, natural flavor that Shirahoshi has.
Youth is invincible.
That's what it means.
…
Two and a half hours later.
Jin stopped using the Multi-Size Technique, feeling the consumption was a bit heavy.
Everyone might wondered-
The mermaid tribe's fish tails only gain the ability to transform into legs after the age of thirty, so how did Shirahoshi exercise with Jin?
Regarding this point, just look at the Mermaid Princess lying on the shell bed, smacking her little lips as if savoring something, and everyone should understand, right?
...
Chat Group of the Dead:
[Jin: Hey guys, what silly topic are you discussing again?]
[Aki: Oh ho~ Mr. Playboy is here. Had a wild night last night, didn't you?]
[Kazuma: @Jin, Godfather, what does the Mermaid Princess taste like? Please share!]
[Mito: Jin-kun, you need to exercise some restraint, you know?]
Everyone in the group had seen how Jin had been diligently practicing the Multi-Size Technique these past few days.
Why would Jin, who is already at Super Kage-level, learn such a niche skill... those who understand, understand.
Roger, rated by Jin as the number one playboy in the group, expressed his disapproval.
'Damn, and you have the nerve to call me a playboy.'
'You specifically learned a technique just to sleep with Neptune's daughter.'
'I'm much more pure-hearted than you.'
Seeing Jin enter the group, most of those who came up to tease him were young group members.
Occasionally, an elder like Mito would come out to advise him.
The temporary departure of Hashirama and Tobirama from the group via Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation had sparked quite some discussion in the chat group.
Several group members wanted to use this method to resurrect.
Ace was the first in line.
He wanted to resurrect using this method, then find Blackbeard and get revenge.
During the previous battle where Jin and Blackbeard jointly attacked Totto Land, seeing Blackbeard use his father's techniques hurt him more than killing him.
Next was Kazuma.
This guy wanted to use this method to return to the present world, at least to escape his virgin status.
But after hearing from Mito that bodies resurrected via Impure World Reincarnation couldn't feel touch, he lost interest.
What's the point of resurrection if you can't feel pleasure?
[Ding~ New group member, Unohana Retsu, has joined the group]
The sudden group notification attracted everyone's attention.
[Kazuma: @Unohana: Welcome, new member~ Judging by the name, it's a female group member. Please share a photo.]
[Izuna: Which world are you from? Does anyone know her?]
[Yamamoto: @Unohana, Captain Unohana, you too... Could it be Yhwach's doing!?]
Yamamoto was greatly alarmed.
After all, Unohana was an old acquaintance of his.
A thousand years ago, the two were both members of the first generation Gotei 13.
[Unohana: Captain-Commander? Th-this place... is it hell?]
When ordinary people die, they either become Hollows or enter Soul Society.
And if they die again in the Soul Society, generally, they turn into Reishi, becoming 'nutrients' for the Soul Society.
But those with powerful Reiatsu might even fall into [Hell].
[Yamamoto: First, tell me about the current situation in the Soul Society. I'll explain things here to you later.]
Receiving the former Captain-Commander's order, Unohana temporarily suppressed the shock in her heart.
She told Yamamoto about the perilous situation the Soul Society faced after his death.
Currently, Yamamoto's disciple, Kyoraku Shunsui had taken over the position of Captain-Commander.
And was preparing for the next attack by the Sternritter.
Kurosaki Ichigo, Kuchiki Rukia, Abarai Renji, and others were taken by the Zero Division, the Royal Guard, for treatment and training.
Urahara Kisuke was researching methods to help the Captains reclaim their Bankai.
And the cause of her, Unohana's, death was to help Zaraki Kenpachi awaken his latent power.
Fortunately, she succeeded in the end.
Before Unohana died, she witnessed Zaraki's Shikai.
That was enough to make him a main force against Yhwach.
[Yamamoto: Even so, to confront that monster Yhwach, this level is still far from enough.]
Jin thought the old man was absolutely right.
To be honest, the Gotei 13 winning against the Sternritter was entirely due to Yhwach's treachery.
He turned around and used Auswählen, wiping out over eighty percent of his own people.
Jin was dumbfounded when he saw that back then.
'Damn, are you from the Black Organization?'
'You can't kill a single enemy after fighting for so long.'
'But you kill your own people with one hit each.'
And facing Yhwach's nearly unsolvable ability at the end, Ichigo just sliced him down with a single slash of his oversized watermelon knife.
To be honest, the level of plot armor there surpassed even Luffy's evolution into Nika.
But because Ichigo's power-up was immediately nerfed afterward, it was still better received than Luffy's.
After all, Nika had just beaten the crap out of Kaido on Onigashima half a month ago, but then half a month later, he was fighting evenly with that little punk Lucci.
That... that's a bit hard to justify, right?
So Jin had reason to suspect that the true ability of the Nika Fruit was to be strong against the strong and weak against the weak.
A 50-50 ability, that's what it is.
[Ding! Dimensional Passage has opened. Group members can now enter [Bleach World].]
The second system notification of the day rang out again, causing many group members to be stunned once more.
A few seconds later-
[Yamamoto: @Jin, Jin-boy, you...]
[Jin: Don't even think about it.]
'Are you kidding?'
Forget Yhwach… I wasn't even confident I could defeat members of the Royal Guard.'
'I'm not an idiot.'
[Ding! Group member, Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni, sent a dedicated red envelope to group member, Uchiha Jin: [Zanpakuto: Ryujin Jakka], [Shunpo], [Yamamoto-style Hakuda]...]
This red envelope is comparable to when Master Roshi exchanged martial arts for those treasures back then.
But unlike his attitude of accepting Master Roshi's red envelope without hesitation before, although Jin coveted the red envelope sent by Yamamoto greatly, he didn't rush to take it.
[Jin: @Yamamoto, Stop sending, old man. Even if you gave me the entire Seireitei, I wouldn't go seek death.]
After all, even he, a Transmigrator, couldn't think of a way to counter Yhwach's Almighty.
Winning in the end really relied on Ichigo's protagonist halo exploding with a massive power-up.
Unless you overwhelm him with absolute power, and kill Yhwach instantly before he can even use the Almighty, that might work.
But those with that capability...
Jin flipped through his memories.
Probably only those yellow-haired guys who could turn into giant apes.
But to be honest, Ryujin Jakka's temptation for Jin was still very strong.
After all, Jin himself used fire.
[Jin: @Yamamoto, Old man, how about this? I'll accept the items for now. I can also help the Soul Society fight Yhwach, but as for whether I can kill him, I don't guarantee it. If you accept these terms, I'll take it. If not, then stop @ing me constantly.]
The atmosphere fell into silence.
After a long time, the old man finally replied with two words:
[Fine.]
Yamamoto was an old group member after all.
He had seen all of Jin's various behaviors.
Although this kid had a bunch of flaws and his conduct was downright despicable, he at least had one virtue-
He kept his word.
[Ding! Group member, Uchiha Jin, accepted group member, Yamamoto Genryuusai Shigekuni's red envelope.]
In the real world, inside the new Hard Shell Tower.
Looking at the ancient-looking Zanpakuto tied at his waist, which faintly exuded an indomitable, kingly aura, Jin couldn't put it down, gently stroking its hilt.
This is the sword I want!
[Jin: @Unohana: By the way, Hana-nee, let me ask you something.]
[Unohana: Hana-nee? Are you calling me?]
[Jin: Yes. I just heard you say the Sternritter have the ability to steal the Bankai of you Gotei 13's Captains, right?]
[Unohana: Correct. Captain Kuchiki, Captain Komamura, Captain Hitsugaya, and several other Captains had their Bankai stolen. They used a special medallion. Currently, former Captain Urahara should be researching a countermeasure, I believe?]
[Jin: Then I'd like to ask, if an ordinary person got their hands on that medallion, could they also use the Captain's Bankai?]
[Unohana: ???]
[Yamamoto: @Jin, What are you planning, kid!?]
