It is a grave offense for an outsider to trespass into Seireitei without permission.
Moreover, from her understanding of Tenya, he might say he is just greeting them, but the commotion he causes will likely be significant.
"No matter, it's nothing important." Tenya didn't take it to heart at all.
"Honestly..."
"You, you really are something."
"No matter where you are, you can't stay still!"
Rukia looked speechless.
She didn't even dare to imagine what major incident Tenya had caused by breaking into Seireitei.
The only thing she could be sure of was that a big commotion was inevitable.
Tenya asked, "What are your plans now?"
"Continue sightseeing, or go to the Human World?"
Rikka looked at him with bright eyes, a pleading look in her eyes.
"I want to stay for a while longer and search for my father's soul."
Tenya agreed to her request, "Alright."
"As long as it's Rikka's wish, I can fulfill it."
He knew this was a knot in Rikka's heart that needed to be untied.
"You guys are still staying here?"
Rukia rubbed her forehead and said in a deep voice, "The Department of Research and Development can't possibly fail to detect our foreign Reiatsu. They might have already sent people to Rukongai to search for us."
"Let them search. Even if they find us, with me here, nothing will happen."
Tenya's casual words exuded immense confidence.
Then he turned to Rukia and asked, "Rukia, you're familiar with this place. Do you know where there's a hot spring?"
"Why the sudden urge for a hot spring..."
"Your topic is too out there!"
Rukia's lips twitched.
Rukia explained, "There are no hot springs in a barren place like the lower districts."
"You have to go to the front districts of Rukongai."
Tenya suggested, "Then let's go. We can also search for Rikka's father's soul along the way."
The group set off, traversing various districts of Rukongai.
Along the way, they encountered many attacks from bandits. However, to Tenya, it was merely a comical performance, nothing worth mentioning.
As they moved further into the front districts, the living environment gradually improved.
Upon reaching the Eleventh District, they finally found a hot spring town.
"Welcome, guests. Our hot spring offers regular pools and VIP pools, as well as private baths."
"Prices are 100 Kan, 500 Kan, and 2000 Kan per person, respectively."
The shopkeeper greeted them with a smile.
"Rukia?"
Everyone looked at Rukia in unison. Only she was a native of Soul Society.
"Yes, yes, I know..."
"Please give me four tickets for the private bath."
Rukia pulled out a stack of notes similar to banknotes.
After all, having been a Shinigami for so many years, she had some savings.
"Oh~ Soul Society still uses paper money, that's quite convenient." Tenya said in surprise.
"It can't compare to the Human World's QR code payment, though."
Rukia had experienced the Human World's QR code payment and couldn't help but complain about Soul Society's unchanging ways.
"Will the hot springs in Soul Society be different?" Rikka seemed very excited.
"It feels like it has a special scent." Megumi took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and invigorated.
Rukia explained, "Yes, the water here contains unique properties."
"Soaking in it helps Shinigami recover their Reiryoku."
"For ordinary humans, it should also have the effect of strengthening the body."
"Then, let's enjoy it thoroughly."
Tenya naturally shed his clothes and stepped into the pool.
"You fellow..."
"How can you so calmly strip naked and soak with us?"
Rukia's lips twitched uncontrollably.
"What's wrong? Aren't you coming down?"
"Don't worry, I won't mind."
Tenya leaned back against the edge of the pool, his body immersed in the warm water, looking completely at ease.
"You don't mind, but we do!" Megumi complained helplessly.
Rikka said, "It's okay!"
"The contract is the most intimate. We should be honest with each other..."
Though she said that, Rikka's cheeks were flushed, and she turned her face away, not daring to look directly.
"Hmph!"
"Don't even think about taking advantage of us!"
Rukia waved her hand and used a Kido.
"Bakudo #26 : Kyokko!"
A colorful aura appeared, covering Rukia and the others, concealing their bodies.
"This technique can alter light reflection. He won't be able to see us."
After saying that, Rukia confidently removed her clothes and openly walked into the hot spring.
Seeing this, Rikka and Megumi also felt relieved and followed suit.
"No way?"
"You guard against a gentleman like me?"
Tenya looked closely, only to see that the three women's bodies seemed to be covered in a divine light. Except for a faint outline, nothing inside was visible.
Then, he decisively activated his Sharingan. His powerful eye successfully saw through the Bakudo that Rukia had cast.
He took in all the beautiful scenery before his eyes.
"You pervert!"
Rukia instinctively covered her chest. However, Tenya merely glanced at her indifferently.
"Hey! What do you mean by averting your gaze?!" Rukia stomped her foot in anger.
"Tenya, if you really want to look, it's not impossible~"
Rikka spoke coyly, a tempting yet resisting demeanor that was truly captivating.
And you know what, even though Rikka was petite, she still had what she needed. At least one level higher than Rukia.
"I give up..."
"With Tenya-kun's ability, if he really wanted to take advantage, there's no way to stop him."
Megumi, on the other hand, threw caution to the wind. She simply made no resistance, and openly spread her arms, leaning back against the edge of the pool to enjoy the hot spring.
"My Megumi truly has a broad mind!"
Tenya gave a thumbs-up in approval, then leaned closer to admire her carefully.
Facing such close inspection, Megumi's usually calm face finally couldn't hold up...
She shifted backward, turning her back to him, and pouted, "Tenya-kun, you're naughty!"
"Hehehe~ I am now a ghost!"
Tenya let out a strange laugh, mimicking a ghost's posture, and pounced towards the three women with bared fangs and claws.
On the other side.
Under the arrest warrant personally issued by the Captain-Commander, the Gotei 13 almost entirely mobilized, heading to Rukongai for a search.
However, after several days, they failed to find any trace of Tenya and his group.
(Tenya used his Aura Concealment skill, leaving no traces)
"Where on earth did that rogue hide?"
Momo's eyes were bloodshot, and her face was filled with exhaustion.
Ever since she witnessed the death of her beloved Captain Aizen, she had been frantically searching day and night for Tenya's whereabouts.
"Momo, you look very unwell..."
"If this continues, your body won't be able to take it."
Rangiku looked at her with concern.
"How about this, there's a hot spring up ahead."
