Chapter 68 - 68 ⥤ Has He Been Kidnapped by Someone?"That sounds like something I would do."
Yoruichi knew herself well enough to admit that. She raised her seemingly delicate right arm and flexed her muscles with pride.
"Not bad for someone without a Zanpakutō, right? Jealous of big sister's powerful arms?"
Her cockiness made her quickly forget about Akira's earlier divination.
Fortunately, while testing the hardness of her biceps, he didn't forget to remind her, considering she was a valued customer.

Yoruichi glared at him irritably and snorted, "I didn't bring any. Have you ever seen one of the five noble families carrying money around? We always..."
"Yes, I have." He nodded, "Old Sōjun always carries money. He's bought quite a few protection talismans from me."
Hearing this, Yoruichi was speechless.
She had never needed to carry money since Marenoshin Ōmaeda always followed her and handled such matters. But now she had snuck out, and her Lieutenant was probably
